GENERAL OVERVIEW
Corporate Overview
Our principal executive offices are located at 41 Puget Drive, Steilacoom, WA. Our telephone number is (250) 681-1010.
Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink under the symbol “IRCC.
Corporate History
We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 20, 2006 under the name “Zebra Resources Incorporated” (aka “Zebra Resources Inc.”). At inception, we were an exploration stage company engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of mineral properties.
We are investigating several business opportunities to enhance shareholder value.
Effective March 17, 2010, we effected a one (1) old for two (2) new forward stock split of our issued and outstanding common stock. As a result, our authorized capital increased from 75,000,000 to 150,000,000 shares of common stock and our issued and outstanding increased from 32,000,000 shares of common stock to 64,000,000 shares of common stock, all with a par value of $0.001.
Also effective March 17, 2010, we changed our name from "Zebra Resources Incorporated" to "American Paramount Gold Corp.", by way of a merger with our wholly owned subsidiary American Paramount Gold Corp., which was formed solely for the change of name.
The name change and forward stock split became effective with the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board at the opening for trading on April 12, 2010 under the new stock symbol "APGA".
On July 30, 2010, our directors approved the adoption of the 2010 Stock Option Plan (“2010 Plan”) which permits our company to issue up to 6,500,000 shares of our common stock to directors, officers, employees and consultants of our company upon the exercise of stock options granted under the 2010 Plan. As at August 31, 2016, there are no outstanding stock options.
On November 16, 2011, our company’s board of directors approved a forty (40) for one (1) reverse stock split of our authorized and issued and outstanding common shares.
On November 28, 2011, the Nevada Secretary of State accepted for filing a Certificate of Change, wherein we effected an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to decrease the authorized number of shares of our common stock from 150,000,000 to 3,750,000 shares of common stock, par value of $0.001. On November 29, 2011 the Nevada Secretary of State accepted for filing a Certificate of Correction, wherein we effected an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to correct the Certificate of Change filed on November 28, 2011 to state that no fractional shares shall be issued and that fractional shares shall be rounded up rather than rounded down.
The reverse split became effective with the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board at the opening of trading on January 26, 2012 under the new symbol APGA. The CUSIP number was changed to 02882T 204.
Effective January 8, 2018, we changed our name to Indigenous Roots Corp.
The name change became effective with the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board at the opening for trading on February 9, 2018 under the stock symbol "IRCC". Our CUSIP number is 455685107.

We do not expect any material changes in the number of employees over the next twelve-month period. We do and will continue to outsource contract employment as needed.

At present, our cash requirements for the next 12 months outweigh the funds available. Of the $150,000 that we require for the next 12 months, we had $82 in cash as of February 28, 2019. In order to improve our liquidity, we intend to pursue additional equity financing from private investors or possibly a registered public offering. Other than as set out below, we currently do not have any arrangements in place for the completion of any further private placement financings and there is no assurance that we will be successful in completing any further private placement financings. If we are unable to achieve the necessary additional financing, then we plan to reduce the amounts that we spend on our business activities and administrative expenses in order to be within the amount of capital resources that are available to us.

OPERATING ACTIVITIES
Cash provided in operating activities was $64 for the six months ended February 28, 2019.
FINANCING ACTIVITIES
Cash provided by financing activities was $nil for the six months ended February 28, 2019.
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
As a "smaller reporting company", we are not required to provide tabular disclosure obligations.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.
APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
Our company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, "Earnings per Share” and SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98 (SAB 98). Under the provisions of ASC 260 and SAB 98, basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted net loss per share gives effect to common stock equivalents; however, potential common shares are excluded if their effect is anti-dilutive. As at November 30, 2018, our company had no potentially dilutive securities.
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with FASB ASC 505-10. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by FASB ASC 505-10.
GOING CONCERN
Our company has incurred a net loss $25,758 for the six months ended February 28, 2019 and at February 28, 2019 had a deficit accumulated of $6,310,943. Our company has commenced limited operations, raising substantial doubt about our company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our company will seek additional sources of capital through the issuance of debt or equity financing, but there can be no assurance our company will be successful in accomplishing its objectives.
The ability of our company to continue as a going concern is dependent on additional sources of capital and the success of our company's plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
At this time, we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock or through a loan from our directors, shareholders or investors to meet our obligations over the next twelve months. Other than a convertible loan agreement with Monaco Capital Inc., we do not have any further arrangements in place for any future debt or equity financing.
