CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Report”) contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements discuss matters that are not historical facts. Because they discuss future events or conditions, forward-looking statements may include words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “intend,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “may,” “seek,” “plan,” “might,” “will,” “expect,” “predict,” “project,” “forecast,” “potential,” “continue” negatives thereof or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, are based on various underlying assumptions and current expectations about the future and are not guarantees. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, level of activity, performance or achievement to be materially different from the results of operations or plans expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.

 

We cannot predict all of the risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, such information should not be regarded as representations that the results or conditions described in such statements or that our objectives and plans will be achieved and we do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any of these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are found at various places throughout this Report and include information concerning possible or assumed future results of our operations, including statements about potential acquisition or merger targets; business strategies; future cash flows; financing plans; plans and objectives of management, any other statements regarding future acquisitions, future cash needs, future operations, business plans and future financial results, and any other statements that are not historical facts.

 

These forward-looking statements represent our intentions, plans, expectations, assumptions and beliefs about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors. Many of those factors are outside of our control and could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by those forward-looking statements. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events described in the forward-looking statements might not occur or might occur to a different extent or at a different time than we have described. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Report. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning other matters addressed in this Report and attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this Report.

 

Except to the extent required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, a change in events, conditions, circumstances or assumptions underlying such statements, or otherwise.

(UNAUDITED)

 

NOTE 1    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION

 

(A) Organization and Basis of Presentation

 

Alternative Energy and Environmental Solutions, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on June 10, 2010 to market an innovative new biotechnology that utilizes nutrient stimulants - organic microbes - to extract coalbed methane more efficiently in high-production as well as from low-producing, depleted and abandoned coalmines in the U.S. Coalbed methane is a clean-burning natural gas used for heating in homes and is used to generate electricity.

 

On March 31, 2015, the Company filed an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation changing the name of the Company to “Point of Care Nano-Technology, Inc.”

 

On August 28, 2014, the Company filed an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation changing the name of the Company to “Unique Growing Solutions, Inc.”

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information.  Accordingly, they do not include all the information necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position and results of operations.

 

It is management’s opinion however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made, which are necessary for a fair financial statements presentation.  The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.

 

(B) Use of Estimates

 

In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include valuation of equity based on transactions and the valuation on deferred tax assets.

 

(C) Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At April 30, 2015 and July 31, 2014, the Company had no cash equivalents.

 

(D) Loss Per Share

 

In accordance with the accounting guidance of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 260, Earnings per Share, basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period.

 

Since the Company reflected a net loss for the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, the effect of 5,473,397 and 6,155,100 warrants, respectively, is anti-dilutive. A separate computation of diluted loss per share is not presented.

  

 (E) Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ASC Topic 740”). Under ASC Topic 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  Under ASC Topic 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. 

 

(F) Business Segments

 

The Company operates in one segment and therefore segment information is not presented.

 

(G) Revenue Recognition

 

The Company will recognize revenue on arrangements in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. In all cases, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.

AS OF APRIL 30, 2015

(UNAUDITED) 

 

(H) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts on the Company’s financial instruments including accounts payable and notes payable, approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments.

 

(I) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In April 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03, “ Interest – Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs”, is to simplify presentation of debt issuance costs by requiring that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The ASU does not affect the recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs. For public companies, the ASU is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

 

In April 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-04, “Compensation – Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Practical Expedient for the Measurement Date of an Employer’s Defined Benefit Obligation and Plan Assets”, permits the entity to measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations using the month-end that is closest to the entity’s fiscal year-end and apply that practical expedient consistently from year to year. The ASU is effective for public business entities for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

 

In April 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-05, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement”, provides guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. If such an arrangement includes a software license, then the customer should account for the software license element of the arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If the arrangement does not include a software license, the customer should account for it as a service contract. For public business entities, the ASU is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early application is permitted. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

 

In April 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-06, “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260): Effects on Historical Earnings per Unit of Master Limited Partnership Dropdown Transactions”, specifies that, for purposes of calculating historical earnings per unit under the two-class method, the earnings (losses) of a transferred business before the date of a drop down transaction should be allocated entirely to the general partner. In that circumstance, the previously reported earnings per unit of the limited partners (which is typically the earnings per unit measure presented in the financial statements) would not change as a result of the dropdown transaction. Qualitative disclosures about how the rights to the earnings (losses) differ before and after the dropdown transaction occurs for purposes of computing earnings per unit under the two-class method also are required. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is permitted. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

 

In June 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The update gives entities a single comprehensive model to use in reporting information about the amount and timing of revenue resulting from contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The proposed ASU, which would apply to any entity that enters into contracts to provide goods or services, would supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. Additionally, the update would supersede some cost guidance included in Subtopic 605-35, Revenue Recognition – Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts. The update removes inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements and provides a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues and more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements. In addition, the update improves comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions, and capital markets and simplifies the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer. The update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. This updated guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update “ASU” 2014-15 on “Presentation of Financial Statements Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) - Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”. Currently, there is no guidance in U.S. GAAP about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. The amendments in this Update provide that guidance. In doing so, the amendments are intended to reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. The amendments require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. Specifically, the amendments (1) provide a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). The amendments in this Update are effective for public and nonpublic entities for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

 

All other newly issued accounting pronouncements, but not yet effective, have been deemed either immaterial or not applicable.

 NOTE 8   GOING CONCERN

 

As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has minimal operations, a working capital and stockholders’ deficiency of $284,593, used cash in operations of $312,663 and has a net loss of $118,670,714 for the nine months ended April 30, 2015. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Management believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

The following plan of operations provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read along with our financial statements and notes thereto. The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ significantly from the results, expectations and plans discussed in these forward-looking statements.

 

Overview and Plan of Operation

 

The Company was incorporated as “Alternative Energy & Environmental Solutions, Inc.” in the State of Nevada on June 10, 2010 to bring to market and license its innovative new biotechnology for the environmentally friendly and cost-effective extraction of natural gas (coalbed methane) from low-producing, depleted and abandoned coal mines in the U.S.

 

On August 22, 2012, a three–for-one forward stock split was declared effective for stockholders of record on June 5, 2012.

 

On February 25, 2015, the Company entered into a License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Lamina Equities Corporation (“Lamina”). Lamina is a private corporation over which Dr. Raouf Guirguis has sole control. Pursuant to the License Agreement, the Company agreed to pay $1,000 to Lamina in exchange for an exclusive worldwide license to Lamina’s intellectual property relating to diagnosing illness in humans via a saliva test. In addition, the Company will pay total regulatory milestone payments of up to $10,000 and a royalty of 7.5% of Net Sales (as defined in the License Agreement) to Lamina.

 

The Company’s new business model relates to using its license from Lamina to first develop and then manufacture saliva-based medical diagnosis products. The Company is no longer engaged in the extraction of natural gas (coalbed methane) from low-producing, depleted and abandoned coal mines in the U.S.

 

In addition to developing the medical diagnosis products, the Company’s plan of operation over the next 12 months is to continue to decrease costs of operation. The Company cannot make any guarantee that it will be successful in decreasing its costs of operation.

 

On August 28, 2014, the Company filed an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation changing the name of the Company to “Unique Growing Solutions, Inc.”

 

On March 31, 2015, the Company filed an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation changing the name of the Company to “Point of Care Nano-Technology, Inc.”

 

Change in Control

 

Simultaneously with the signing of the License Agreement, on February 25, 2015, the Company entered into two separate Cancellation Agreements. One Cancellation Agreement was with Mr. Peter Coker, formerly its sole officer and sole director, and one Cancellation Agreement was with Ms. Linda Hiatt, formerly an affiliate of the Company (collectively, the “Cancellation Agreements”). Pursuant to the Cancellation Agreements, Mr. Coker and Ms. Hiatt agreed to have the Company cancel, in total, 11,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock that they used to own. In return, Mr. Coker and Ms. Hiatt received a total of $115,000 from the Company.

 

Simultaneously with the signing of the License Agreement, on February 25, 2015, the Company signed an Employment Agreement with Dr. Guirguis (the “Employment Agreement”). Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, the Company appointed Dr. Guirguis as Chief Executive Officer of the Company effective as of February 26, 2015 (the “Employment Effective Date”). Dr. Guirguis is also a member of the Company’s board of directors. The Company will pay Dr. Guirguis an annual salary of $350,000. In addition, the Company issued 37,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to Dr. Guirguis (the “Stock Issuance”). Dr. Guirguis chose to have the Company issue some of the Stock Issuance shares to other people including 1,500,000 shares issued to Mr. Ayman Elsalhy, a member of the Company’s board of directors. Dr. Guirguis now controls 26,000,000 shares directly and 2,500,000 shares indirectly via his wife’s ownership of those shares. Dr. Guirguis controls 63.53% of the Company’s shares.

Limited Operating History

 

We have not previously demonstrated that we will be able to expand our business. We cannot guarantee that the expansion efforts described in this annual report will be successful. Our business is subject to risks inherent in growing an enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible rejection of our renovation services offering.

 

Results of Operations

 

Comparison for the three months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014

 

Revenue: Revenues for the three months ended April 30, 2015 were $0, compared with $0 in the three months ended April 30, 2014, reflecting no change, which was primarily attributable to the lack of ability to secure a strategic partner and operations to generate revenue.

 

Total Operating Expenses: Total operating expenses for the three months ended April 30, 2015 were $118,274,633 compared with $50,427 in the three months ended April 30, 2014, reflecting an increase of $118,224,206. The increase was primarily attributable to the stock based compensation of Dr. Guirguis, our Chief Executive Officer.

 

Loss from Operations: Loss from operations for the three months ended April 30, 2015 were $118,274,633 compared with $50,427 in the three months ended April 30, 2014, reflecting an increase of $118,224,206.

Net loss: We incurred a net loss of $118,280,020 in the three months ended April 30, 2015, compared to a net loss of $55,686 in the three months ended April 30, 2014, reflecting an increase of $118,224,334. The increase was primarily attributable to the stock based compensation of Dr. Guirguis, our Chief Executive Officer.

 

Comparison for the nine months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014

 

Revenue: Revenues for the nine months ended April 30, 2015 were $0, compared with $0 in the nine months ended April 30, 2014, reflecting no change, which was primarily attributable to the lack of ability to secure a strategic partner and operations to generate revenue.

 

Total Operating Expenses: Total operating expenses for the nine months ended April 30, 2015 were $118,655,684 compared with $143,303 in the nine months ended April 30, 2014, reflecting an increase of $118,512,381.

Loss from Operations: Loss from operations for the nine months ended April 30, 2015 were $118,655,684 compared with $143,303 in the nine months ended April 30, 2014, reflecting an increase of $118,512,381. The increase was primarily attributable to the stock based compensation of Dr. Guirguis, our Chief Executive Officer.

 

Net loss: We incurred a net loss of $118,670,714 in the nine months ended April 30, 2015 compared to a net loss of $156,956 in the nine months ended April 30, 2014, reflecting an increase of $118,513,758. The increase was primarily attributable to the stock based compensation of Dr. Guirguis, our Chief Executive Officer.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We receive cash from warrant exercises and notes payable. If we determine that we need more money to build our business, we will seek alternative sources, like a private placement of securities or loans from our officers or others. At the present time, we do not have enough cash to continue operations for 12 months and we have not made any arrangements to raise additional cash. If we are unable raise additional cash we will either have to suspend or cease our expansion plans entirely. Other than as described in this Report, we have no other financing plans.

 

We anticipate that depending on market conditions and our plan of operations, we may incur operating losses in the foreseeable future. Therefore, our auditors have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has minimal operations, a working capital and stockholders’ deficiency of $284,593, used cash in operations of $312,663 and had a net loss of $118,670,714 for the nine months ended April 30, 2015. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

We have identified the policies outlined below as critical to our business operations and an understanding of our results of operations. The list is not intended to be a comprehensive list of all of our accounting policies. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, with no need for management's judgment in their application.

 

15
 

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC Topic 740 income taxes (“ASC Topic 740”). Under ASC Topic 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC Topic 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In April 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03, “ Interest – Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs”, is to simplify presentation of debt issuance costs by requiring that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The ASU does not affect the recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs. For public companies, the ASU is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

 

In April 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-04, “Compensation – Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Practical Expedient for the Measurement Date of an Employer’s Defined Benefit Obligation and Plan Assets”, permits the entity to measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations using the month-end that is closest to the entity’s fiscal year-end and apply that practical expedient consistently from year to year. The ASU is effective for public business entities for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

 

In April 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-05, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement”, provides guidance to customers about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. If such an arrangement includes a software license, then the customer should account for the software license element of the arrangement consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If the arrangement does not include a software license, the customer should account for it as a service contract. For public business entities, the ASU is effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early application is permitted. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

 

In April 2015, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-06, “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260): Effects on Historical Earnings per Unit of Master Limited Partnership Dropdown Transactions”, specifies that, for purposes of calculating historical earnings per unit under the two-class method, the earnings (losses) of a transferred business before the date of a drop down transaction should be allocated entirely to the general partner. In that circumstance, the previously reported earnings per unit of the limited partners (which is typically the earnings per unit measure presented in the financial statements) would not change as a result of the dropdown transaction. Qualitative disclosures about how the rights to the earnings (losses) differ before and after the dropdown transaction occurs for purposes of computing earnings per unit under the two-class method also are required. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Earlier application is permitted. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

 

In June 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The update gives entities a single comprehensive model to use in reporting information about the amount and timing of revenue resulting from contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The proposed ASU, which would apply to any entity that enters into contracts to provide goods or services, would supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. Additionally, the update would supersede some cost guidance included in Subtopic 605-35, Revenue Recognition – Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts. The update removes inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements and provides a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues and more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements. In addition, the update improves comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions, and capital markets and simplifies the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer. The update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. This updated guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update “ASU” 2014-15 on “Presentation of Financial Statements Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) - Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”. Currently, there is no guidance in U.S. GAAP about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. The amendments in this Update provide that guidance. In doing so, the amendments are intended to reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. The amendments require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. Specifically, the amendments (1) provide a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). The amendments in this Update are effective for public and nonpublic entities for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

 

All other newly issued accounting pronouncements, but not yet effective, have been deemed either immaterial or not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Company's CEO and CFO concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the Company's CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure as a result of continuing material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting.

 

During the assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, our management identified material weaknesses related to the lack of requisite U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) expertise of our Chief Financial Officer and our internal bookkeeper. This lack of expertise to prepare our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP without the assistance of the outside accounting consultant hired to ensure that our financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP constitutes a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. In order to mitigate the material weakness, we engaged an outside accounting consultant to assist us in the preparation of our financial statements to ensure that these financial statements are prepared in conformity to U.S. GAAP. This outside accounting consultant has significant experience in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. We believe that the engagement of this consultant will lessen the possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis, and we will continue to monitor the effectiveness of this action and make any changes that our management deems appropriate. We expect to continue to rely on this outside consulting arrangement to supplement our internal accounting staff for the foreseeable future. Until such time as we hire the proper internal accounting staff with the requisite U.S. GAAP experience, however, it is unlikely we will be able to remediate the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes that occurred to our internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

 

On March 3, 2015, the Company issued 37,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to Dr. Guirguis as part of the Employment Agreement. Dr. Guirguis chose to have the Company issue 11,500,000 of these shares to other people including 1,500,000 shares issued to Mr. Ayman Elsalhy, a member of the Company’s board of directors and 2,500,000 shares to Dr. Guirguis’ wife.

 

On April 21, 2015, the Company, due to the exercise of warrants at $0.83 per share issued a total of 405,300 shares of common stock to four individuals. This resulted in total proceeds to the Company of $336,399. The Company received $62,499 of this money in July 2014 and $273,900 of this money in February 2015.

 

On April 29, 2015, the Company, due to the exercise of warrants at $0.83 per share issued a total of 22,725 shares of common stock to one individual. This resulted in total proceeds to the Company of $18,861.75. The Company received this money in May 2015.

 

The above shares were issued in reliance on the exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. These shares of our common stock qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) since the issuance shares by us did not involve a public offering. The offering was not a “public offering” as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, manner of the issuance and number of shares issued. We did not undertake an offering in which we sold a high number of shares to a high number of investors. In addition, the investors had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2) since they agreed to and received share certificates bearing a legend stating that such shares are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the Act. This restriction ensures that these shares would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a “public offering.” Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act for this transaction.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

 

On August 23, 2011, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note in the amount of $10,000 which was due on August 23, 2012 and bearing compounding interest at a rate of 6% per annum. Interest on the outstanding principal balance is payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter. The Company is currently in default of this note and expects to make the necessary payments whenever the Company is able to make such payments. Then on December 28, 2011, the Company issued an additional unsecured promissory note in the amount of $10,000 which was due on December 28, 2012 and bearing compounding interest at a rate of 6% per annum. Interest on the outstanding principal balance is payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter. The Company is currently in default of these notes and expects to make the necessary payments whenever the Company is able to make such payments. As of April 30, 2015 and April 30, 2014, the Company recorded $4,663 and $3,237, in accrued interest, respectively.

 

On October 10, 2014, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note to an unrelated party in the amount of $100,000 which is due on or before the 90th day from October 10, 2014. On March 2, 2015, the company repaid $35,000 of the loan. The remaining loan balance due is $65,000 as of April 30, 2015. The note bears interest at a rate of 9% per annum.   As of April 30, 2015, the Company recorded $4,519 in accrued interest and the note is in default.

At all times during the Term and for a period of ten (10) years following termination or expiration hereof in its entirety, each Party shall, and shall cause its Affiliates, and its and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents to, keep confidential and not publish or otherwise disclose to a Third Party and not use, directly or indirectly, for any purpose, any Confidential Information furnished or otherwise made known to it, directly or indirectly, by the other Party, except to the extent such disclosure or use is expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement or is reasonably necessary or useful for the performance of a Party’s obligations, or the exercise of a Party’s rights, under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but to the extent the receiving Party can demonstrate by documentation or other competent proof, the confidentiality and non-use obligations under this Section 5.1 with respect to any Confidential Information shall not include any information that:

5.1.4   has been independently developed by or for the receiving Party without reference to, or use or disclosure of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information.

 

Specific aspects or details of Confidential Information shall not be deemed to be within the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party merely because the Confidential Information is embraced by more general information in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party. Further, any combination of Confidential Information shall not be considered in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party merely because individual elements of such Confidential Information are in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party unless the combination and its principles are in the public domain or in the possession of the receiving Party.

 

11
 

 

5.2             Permitted Disclosures. Each Party may disclose Confidential Information to the extent that such disclosure is:

 

5.2.1   in the reasonable opinion of the receiving Party’s legal counsel, required to be disclosed pursuant to Applicable Law or made in response to a valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction or other supra-national, federal, national, regional, state, provincial and local governmental or regulatory body of competent jurisdiction, including by reason of filing with securities regulators; provided, however, that the receiving Party, to the extent practicable and legally permissible, shall first have given prompt written notice (and to the extent practicable and legally permissible, at least five (5) Business Days’ notice) to the disclosing Party and given the disclosing Party a reasonable opportunity to take whatever action it deems necessary to protect its Confidential Information (for example, quash such order or to obtain a protective order or confidential treatment requiring that the Confidential Information and documents that are the subject of such order be held in confidence by such court or regulatory body or, if disclosed, be used only for the purposes for which the order was issued). In the event that no protective order or other remedy is sought or obtained, or the disclosing Party waives compliance with the terms of this Agreement, receiving Party shall furnish only that portion of Confidential Information which receiving Party is advised by counsel is legally required to be disclosed;

 

5.2.2   made by or on behalf of the receiving Party to Regulatory Authorities as required in connection with any filing, application or request for Regulatory Approval in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that reasonable measures shall be taken to assure confidential treatment of such information to the extent practicable and consistent with Applicable Law;

 

5.2.3   made to its Representatives; provided that any such recipient of such Confidential Information agrees to be bound by the confidentiality and non-use restrictions contemplated hereby; provided, further that the Party making such disclosure shall remain responsible for any failure by any such Person to treat such Confidential Information as required under this Article 5.

 

5.2.4   made to its or its Affiliates’ financial and legal advisors who have a need to know such Confidential Information and are either under professional codes of conduct giving rise to expectations of confidentiality and non-use or under written agreements of confidentiality and non-use, in each case, at least as restrictive as those set forth in this Agreement; provided that the receiving Party shall remain responsible for any failure by such financial and legal advisors and other Persons contemplated by this Section 5.2.4, to treat such Confidential Information as required under this Article 5.

 

5.3             Public Announcements. Except as contemplated by Section 5.4 or as otherwise agreed by the Parties, neither Party shall issue any other public announcement, press release, or other public disclosure regarding this Agreement or its subject matter without the other Party’s prior written consent, except for any such disclosure that is, in the opinion of the disclosing Party’s counsel, required by Applicable Law (including, without limitation, public disclosure on a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an Annual Report on Form 10-K, or a Current Report on Form 8-K) or the rules of a stock exchange on which the securities of the disclosing Party are listed or for information which has previously been made public. In the event a Party is, in the opinion of its counsel, required by Applicable Law or the rules of a stock exchange on which its securities are listed to make such a public disclosure, such Party shall submit the proposed disclosure in writing to the other Party as far in advance as reasonably practicable so as to provide a reasonable opportunity to comment thereon and such required Party shall consider all comments from such other Party in good faith.

5.4             Publications. Each Party recognizes that the publication of papers regarding results of and other information regarding activities under this Agreement may be beneficial to the Development and Commercialization of Products. Accordingly, ALNE and its Affiliates and Sublicensees shall have the right to publish or present or permit the publication or presenting of papers and presentations that contain clinical data regarding, or pertain to results of clinical testing of, Products (each, a “Publication”); provided, however, that such publications do not contain the Confidential Information of Lamina and Lamina shall be provided with a copy of any such Publication in advance of public publication or presentation thereof and ALNE shall consider in good faith any comments Lamina may have with respect thereto.

 

5.5             Return of Confidential Information. Upon the effective date of the termination of this Agreement for any reason, either Party may request in writing, and the other Party shall either, with respect to Confidential Information to which such first Party does not retain rights under the surviving provisions of this Agreement: (i) promptly destroy all copies of such Confidential Information in the possession of the other Party and confirm such destruction in writing to the requesting Party; or (ii) promptly deliver to the requesting Party, at the other Party’s expense, all copies of such Confidential Information in the possession of the other Party; provided, however, the other Party shall be permitted to retain one (1) copy of such Confidential Information for the sole purpose of performing any continuing obligations hereunder or for archival purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such other Party also shall be permitted to retain such additional copies of or any computer records or files containing such Confidential Information that have been created solely by such Party’s automatic archiving and back-up procedures, to the extent created and retained in a manner consistent with such other Party’s standard archiving and back-up procedures, but not for any other use or purpose.

 

5.6             Survival. All Confidential Information shall continue to be subject to the terms of this Agreement for the period set forth in Section 5.1.
