Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements November 30, 2019 (Expressed in US Dollars) |
1. | Nature of operations, reverse take-over transaction and going concern |
|
|
a) | Nature of operations |
|
|
Allied Corp. (the “Company or Allied”) (formerly named Cosmo Ventures Inc.) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 3, 2013. On July 1, 2019, the Company changed its name to “Allied Corp.” | |
|
|
| The Company’s business plan is to discover new medical technologies some of which are cannabis derived to target full scope therapy and support for trauma survivors, military veterans and first responders, however the Company has not begun any operations or obtained the required permits to begin operations. The head office and the registered office of the Company are located at 1405 St. Paul Street, Kelowna BC V1Y 2E4. |
|
|
| On September 10, 2019, the Company was acquired in a reverse take over (“RTO”) transaction (see Note 1b) and the RTO is considered a purchase of the Company’s net assets (see Note 3) by AM (Advanced Micro) Biosciences, Inc. (“AM Biosciences”). For accounting purposes, the legal subsidiary, AM Biosciences has been treated as the acquirer and Allied Corp. the legal parent, has been treated as the acquiree. Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements reflect a continuation of the financial position, operating results, and cash flow of the Company’s legal subsidiary, AM Biosciences. |
|
|
b) | Reverse take-over transaction (RTO) |
|
|
| On July 25, 2019, as amended effective August 27, 2019, the Company entered into a Reorganization and Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Reorganization Agreement”) to acquire 100% of the issued and outstanding equity of AM (Advanced Micro) Biosciences, Inc (“AM Biosciences”). Effective September 10, 2019, the parties closed the Reorganization Agreement (the “Acquisition”). As part of the transaction, Pacific Capital Investment Group, Inc., the then majority shareholder of Allied (the “Allied Shareholder”) delivered 51,415,014 shares of common stock, representing approximately 62.12% of the outstanding equity of Allied Corp. to SECFAC Exchange Corp. on behalf of the prior shareholders of AM Biosciences and certain other designees of AM Biosciences. Further, as part of the transaction, the Allied Shareholder submitted for cancellation and return to treasury 10,459,220 shares of common stock. As a consequence, immediately subsequent to the close of the Reorganization Agreement, Allied had 82,768,780 shares of common stock outstanding.
Pursuant to the Reorganization Agreement, effective on September 10, 2019, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding equity of AM Biosciences. As consideration for the equity of AM Biosciences, the Allied Shareholder issued and delivered 51,385,412 shares of common stock, representing approximately 62.12% of the outstanding equity of the Company to SECFAC Exchange Corp. on behalf of the previous shareholders of AM Biosciences and other designees of AM Biosciences.
The Reorganization Agreement constitutes a reverse merger, such that AM Biosciences acquired control of Allied Corp. At the time of the Reorganization Agreement the operations of both Allied Corp. and AM Biosciences did not constitute businesses under ASC 805 “Business Combinations” and accordingly the transaction is considered a reverse asset acquisition in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). Under this method of accounting, AM Biosciences was deemed to be the accounting acquirer for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on the facts that, immediately following the acquisition: (i) AM Biosciences’ stockholders owned a substantial majority of the voting rights in the combined company, (ii) AM Biosciences designated a majority of the members of the initial board of directors of the combined company, and (iii) AM Biosciences’ senior management holds all key positions in the senior management of the combined company. As a result, as of the closing date of the acquisition, the net assets of the Company were recorded at their acquisition-date relative fair values in the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and the reported operating results prior to the acquisition will be those of AM Biosciences. |

ALLIED CORP. Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements November 30, 2019 (Expressed in US Dollars) |
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company incurred a net loss for the period of $458,167 and has no operations at this time which will generate revenue. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise sufficient financing to acquire or develop a profitable business. Management intends on financing its operations and future development activities largely from the sale of equity securities with some additional funding from other traditional financing sources, including related party loans until such time that funds provided by future planned operations are sufficient to fund working capital requirements. Business Presentation These unaudited financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”), and are expressed in United States dollars. The Company’s fiscal year-end is August 31. These interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Form 10-Q. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP to complete financial statements. Therefore, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended August 31, 2019 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. The financial statements included herein are unaudited; however, they contain all normal recurring accruals and adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at November 30, 2019, and the results of its operations for the three months ended November 30, 2019 and cash flows for the three months ended November 30, 2019. The results of operations for the period ended November 30, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future quarters or the full year. The significant accounting policies followed are:1. Nature of operations, reverse take-over transaction and going concern (continued) c) Going concern d) Business Risks While some states in the United States have authorized the use and sale of cannabis, it remains illegal under federal law and the approach to enforcement of U.S. federal laws against cannabis is subject to change. Because the Company plans to engage in cannabis-related activities in the United States, it assumes certain risks due to conflicting state and federal laws. The federal law relating to cannabis could be enforced at any time and this would put the Company at risk of being prosecuted and having its assets seized. On January 4, 2018, United States Attorney General Jeff Sessions issued a memorandum to United States district attorneys (the “Sessions Memorandum”) which rescinded previous guidance from the United States Department of Justice specific to cannabis enforcement in the United States, including the Cole Memorandum. With the Cole Memorandum rescinded, United States federal prosecutors no longer have guidance relating to the exercise of their discretion in determining whether to prosecute cannabis related violations of United States federal law. In response to the Sessions Memorandum, on April 13, 2018, the United States President Donald Trump promised Colorado Senator Cory Gardner that he will support efforts to protect states that have legalized cannabis. Nevertheless, a significant change in the federal government’s enforcement policy with respect to current federal laws applicable to cannabis could cause significant financial damage to the Company. The Company may be irreparably harmed by a change in enforcement policies of the federal government depending on the nature of such change. Given the current illegality of cannabis under United States federal law, the Company’s ability to access both public and private capital may be hindered by the fact that certain financial institutions are regulated by the United States federal government and are thus prohibited from providing financing to companies engaged in cannabis related activities. The Company’s ability to access public capital markets in the United States is directly hindered as a result. The Company may, however, be able to access public and private capital markets in Canada in order to support continuing operations. 2. Significant accounting policies
|
|
|
| a) | Cash and cash equivalents |
|
|
|
| Cash is comprised of cash on hand, cash held in trust accounts and demand deposits. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities within three months when acquired. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of November 30, 2019. |

2. | Significant accounting policies (continued) | |
|
|
|
| b) | Intangible assets |
|
|
|
| At November 30, 2019, intangible assets include a purchased brand name and product formulas which are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of 10 years, beginning from the date the products begin to be sold. As the products have not yet been commercially manufactured or distributed for sale no amortization has been recorded. | |
|
|
|
| The Company periodically evaluates the reasonableness of the useful lives of these assets. Once these assets are fully amortized, they are removed from the accounts. These assets are reviewed for impairment or obsolescence when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If impaired, intangible assets are written down to fair value based on discounted cash flows or other valuation techniques. The Company has no intangibles with indefinite lives. | |
|
|
|
| For long-lived assets, impairment losses are only recorded if the asset’s carrying amount is not recoverable through its undiscounted, probability-weighted future cash flows. The Company measures the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amount and the estimated fair value. When an impairment exists, the related assets are written down to fair value. | |
|
|
|
| c) | Long-lived assets |
|
|
|
| In accordance with ASC 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”, the Company tests long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life. Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value, which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisal in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value. There were no impairment charges recorded during the three months ended November 30, 2019. | |
|
|
|
| d) | Foreign currency translation and functional currency conversion |
|
|
|
| Prior to September 10, 2019, the Company’s functional currency was the Canadian dollar. Translation gains and losses from the application of the U.S. dollar as the reporting currency during the period that the Canadian dollar was the functional currency are included as part of cumulative currency translation adjustment, which is reported as a component of shareholders’ equity under accumulated other comprehensive loss. | |
|
|
|
| The Company re-assessed its functional currency and determined as at September 10, 2019, its functional currency changed from the Canadian dollar to the U.S. dollar based on management’s analysis of changes in our organization. The change in functional currency was accounted for prospectively from September 10, 2019 and financial statements prior were not restated for the change in functional currency. | |
|
|
|
|
| For periods commencing September 10, 2019, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Opening balances related to non-monetary assets and liabilities are based on prior period translated amounts, and non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities incurred after September 10, 2019 are translated at the approximate exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. Revenue and expense transactions are translated at the approximate exchange rate in effect at the time of the transaction. Foreign exchange gains and losses are included in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss as foreign exchange gains. |

|
|
|
| e) | Share issuance costs |
|
|
|
| Costs directly attributable to the raising of capital are charged against the related share capital. Costs related to shares not yet issued are recorded as deferred share issuance costs. These costs are deferred until the issuance of the shares to which the costs relate, at which time the costs will be charged against the related share capital or charged to operations if the shares are not issued. | |
|
|
|
| f) | Research and development costs |
|
|
|
| Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. | |
|
|
|
| g) | Net income (loss) per common share |
|
|
|
| Net income (loss) per share is calculated in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share.” The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period is used to compute basic earning or loss per share. Diluted earnings or loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares and diluted potential common shares outstanding. Dilutive potential common shares are additional common shares assumed to be exercised. | |
|
|
|
| Basic net income (loss) per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. As of November 30, 2019, the Company had no dilutive potential common shares. | |
|
|
|
| h) | Income taxes |
|
|
|
| The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 “Income Taxes.” Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements 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 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations. | |
|
|
|
| i) | Related party transactions |
|
|
|
| Related parties are any entities or individuals that, through employment, ownership or other means, possess the ability to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the Company. The Company discloses related party transactions that are outside of normal compensatory agreements, such as salaries. | |
|
|
|
| Related party transactions are measured at the exchange amounts. |

2. | Significant accounting policies (continued) | |
|
|
|
| j) | Significant accounting estimates and judgments |
|
|
|
| The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Although management uses historical experience and its best knowledge of the amount, events or actions to for the basis for judgments and estimates, actual results may differ from these estimates. | |
|
|
|
| The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and further periods if the review affects both current and future periods. | |
|
|
|
| Significant estimates and assumptions included in these financial statements relate to the valuation assumptions related to the estimated useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation, and deferred income tax assets and liabilities. Judgments are required in the assessment of the Company’s ability to continue to as going concern as described in Note 1. | |
|
|
|
| k) | Financial instruments |
|
|
|
|
| ASC 825, “Financial Instruments,” requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 825 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 825 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
Level 3 Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities. |

|
|
|
| k) | Financial instruments (continued) |
|
|
|
| The financial instruments consist principally of cash, due from related parties, accounts payable, note payable, and a loan payable to Allied. The fair value of cash when applicable is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The Company believes that the recorded values of all other financial instruments which are categorized as loans and receivables approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective relatively short maturity dates or current market rates of interest for similar instruments. | |

| Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash. The Company limits its exposure to credit loss by placing its cash with high credit quality financial institutions. | |
|
|
|
| Cash is carried at fair value using a level 1 fair value measurement. The carrying value of accounts payable approximates its fair value because of the short-term nature of the instrument. | |

|
|
|
|
| Identification of the Accounting Acquirer
The Company considers factors in ASC 805-10-55-10 through 55-15 in identifying the accounting acquirer. The Company uses the existence of a controlling financial interest to identify the acquirer - the entity that obtains control of the acquiree. Other pertinent facts and circumstances also shall be considered in identifying the acquirer in a business combination effected by exchanging equity interests, including the following: (a) The relative voting rights in the combined entity after the business combination, where the acquirer usually is the combining entity whose owners as a group retain or receive the largest portion of the voting rights in the combined entity taking into consideration the existence of any unusual or special voting arrangements and options, warrants, or convertible securities; (b) the existence of a large minority voting interest in the combined entity if no other owner or organized group of owners has a significant voting interest, and where the acquirer usually is the combining entity whose single owner or organized group of owners holds the largest minority voting interest in the combined entity; (c) the composition of the governing body of the combined entity, where the acquirer usually is the combining entity whose owners have the ability to elect or appoint or to remove a majority of the members of the governing body of the combined entity; (d) the composition of the senior management of the combined entity, where the acquirer usually is the combining entity whose former management dominates the management of the combined entity; and (e) the terms of the exchange of equity interests, where the acquirer usually is the combining entity that pays a premium over the pre-combination fair value of the equity interests of the other combining entity or entities, where the acquirer usually is the combining entity whose relative size (measured in, for example, assets, revenues, or earnings) is significantly larger than that of the other combining entity or entities. |

|
|
|
| l) | Reverse Acquisitions (continued) |
|
|
|
| Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 805-40-05-2, as one example of a reverse acquisition, a private operating entity may arrange for a public entity to acquire its equity interests in exchange for the equity interests of the public entity. In this situation, the public entity is the legal acquirer because it issued its equity interests, and the private entity is the legal acquiree because its equity interests were acquired. However, application of the guidance in ASC 805-10-55-11 through 55-15 results in identifying: (a) The public entity as the acquiree for accounting purposes (the accounting acquiree); and (b) the private entity as the acquirer for accounting purposes (the accounting acquirer). | |
|
|
|
|
| Measuring the Consideration Transferred
Pursuant to ASC 805-40-30-2 and 30-3 in a reverse acquisition, the accounting acquirer usually issues no consideration for the acquiree. Instead, the accounting acquiree usually issues its equity shares to the owners of the accounting acquirer. Accordingly, the acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred by the accounting acquirer for its interest in the accounting acquiree is based on the number of equity interests the legal subsidiary would have had to issue to give the owners of the legal parent the same percentage equity interest in the combined entity that results from the reverse acquisition. The fair value of the number of equity interests calculated in that way can be used as the fair value of consideration transferred in exchange for the acquiree. The assets and liabilities of the legal acquiree are measured and recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements at their pre-combination carrying amounts (see ASC 805-40-45-2(a)).
Presentation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Post Reverse Acquisition
Pursuant to ASC 805-40-45-1 and 45-2, condensed consolidated financial statements following a reverse acquisition are issued under the name of the legal parent (accounting acquiree) but described in the notes as a continuation of the financial statements of the legal subsidiary (accounting acquirer), with one adjustment, which is to retroactively adjust the accounting acquirer’s legal capital to reflect the legal capital of the accounting acquiree. That adjustment is required to reflect the capital of the legal parent (the accounting acquiree). Comparative information presented in those condensed consolidated financial statements also is retroactively adjusted to reflect the legal capital of the legal parent (accounting acquiree). The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all of the following: (a) The assets and liabilities of the legal subsidiary (the accounting acquirer) recognized and measured at their pre-combination carrying amounts; (b) the assets and liabilities of the legal parent (the accounting acquiree) recognized and measured in accordance with the guidance in Topic 805 ”business combinations”; (c) the retained earnings and other equity balances of the legal subsidiary (accounting acquirer) before the business combination; (d) the amount recognized as issued equity interests in the condensed consolidated financial statements determined by adding the issued equity interest of the legal subsidiary (the accounting acquirer) outstanding immediately before the business combination to the fair value of the legal parent (accounting acquiree) determined in accordance with the guidance in this topic applicable to business combinations. However, the equity structure (that is, the number and type of equity interests issued) reflects the equity structure of the legal parent (the accounting acquiree), including the equity interests the legal parent issued to effect the combination.
Accordingly, the equity structure of the legal subsidiary (the accounting acquirer) is restated using the exchange ratio established in the acquisition agreement to reflect the number of shares of the legal parent (the accounting acquiree) issued in the reverse acquisition; and (e) the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the legal subsidiary’s (accounting acquirer’s) pre-combination carrying amounts of retained earnings and other equity interests as discussed in ASC 805-40-25-2 and 805-40-30-3. |

| Pursuant to ASC 805-40-45-4 and 45-5, in calculating the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator of the earnings-per-share (“EPS”) calculation) during the period in which the reverse acquisition occurs: (a) The number of common shares outstanding from the beginning of that period to the acquisition date shall be computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares of the legal acquiree (accounting acquirer) outstanding during the period multiplied by the exchange ratio established in the merger agreement; and (b) the number of common shares outstanding from the acquisition date to the end of that period shall be the actual number of common shares of the legal acquirer (the accounting acquiree) outstanding during that period. The basic EPS for each comparative period before the acquisition date presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements following a reverse acquisition shall be calculated by dividing (a) by (b): (a) The income of the legal acquiree attributable to common shareholders in each of those periods; and (b) the legal acquiree’s historical weighted-average number of common shares outstanding multiplied by the exchange ratio established in the acquisition agreement. | |
|
|
|
| As a result of the controlling financial interest of the former stockholders of AMBI, for financial statement reporting purposes, the asset acquisition has been treated as a reverse acquisition with AMBI deemed the accounting acquirer and the Company deemed the accounting acquiree under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805-10-55 of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC). The reverse acquisition is deemed a capital transaction and the net assets of AMBI (the accounting acquirer) are carried forward to the Company (the legal acquirer and the reporting entity) at their carrying value before the acquisition. The acquisition process utilizes the capital structure of the Company and the assets and liabilities of AMBI which are recorded at their historical cost. The equity of the Company is the historical equity of AMBI. | |
|
|
|
| m) | These consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary AM Biosciences effective from the date of the reverse take—over transaction on September 10, 2019. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. |
|
|
|
| n) | Recent accounting pronouncements |
|
|
|
| In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 82510) – Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” ASU 2016-01 is intended to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision useful information. ASU 2016-01 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the financial statements. | |
|
|
|
| In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases,” which supersedes the current accounting for leases and while retaining two distinct types of leases, finance and operating, (1) requires lessees to record a right of use asset and a related liability for the rights and obligations associated with a lease, regardless of lease classification, and recognize lease expense in a manner similar to current accounting, (2) eliminates most real estate specific lease provisions, and, (3) aligns many of the underlying lessor model principles with those in the new revenue standard. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Entities are required to use a modified retrospective approach when transitioning to the ASU for leases that exist as of or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. As the Company did not have any leases the adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the financial statements. |

3. | Reverse Take-over Transaction | |
|
|
|
| Pursuant to the Reorganization Agreement (see Note 1 (b)), effective on September 10, 2019, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding equity of AM Biosciences (the “Acquisition”). As consideration for the equity of AM Biosciences, the Allied Shareholder issued and delivered 51,415,014 shares of common stock, representing approximately 62.12% of the outstanding equity of the Company to SECFAC Exchange Corp. on behalf of the previous shareholders of AM Biosciences and other designees of AM Biosciences. | |
|
|
|
| The Acquisition, was accounted for as a reverse asset acquisition pursuant to Topic 805, Business Combinations, as substantially all of the fair value of the assets acquired were concentrated in a group of similar non-financial assets, and the acquired assets did not have outputs or employees. | |
|
|
|
| The total purchase price paid in the Acquisition has been allocated to the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values as of the completion of the Acquisition. The following summarizes the purchase price paid in the Acquisition: |

| a) | On February 13, 2019, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (“APA”) to acquire the property and assets of Bud’s Pure Naturals Inc. for total consideration of up to 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Pursuant to the APA, the Company has issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock on February 13, 2019. The remaining 1,000,000 shares of common stock are contingent upon the receipt of greater than $500,000 of gross profits by the Company from the acquired assets, and obtaining Cosmetic Notification Numbers from Health Canada for the products. If these events do not occur prior to February 13, 2021 then the additional shares are forfeited. |
|
|
|
| The Company assessed the acquisition and determined that the acquisition did not meet the definition of a business found in ASU 2017-01. As the acquisition does not qualify as a business acquisition, the Company accounted for the transaction as an asset acquisition. As the fair value of the consideration was more reliably measurable than the intangible assets acquired the cost of the noncash asset received was based on the fair value of the consideration given. The cost of the assets acquired was the 1,000,000 shares issued which had an estimated fair value of $112,254 (CAD$150,000). |

5. | Intangible assets (continued) | |
|
|
|
| The cost of the asset acquisition is allocated on a relative fair value basis to the net assets acquired. Based on their estimated relative fair values, the brand name had a fair value $56,127 (CAD$75,000) and the formulas acquired had a fair value of $56,127 (CAD$75,000). | |
|
|
|
| The additional 1,000,000 shares issuable upon the achievement of milestones represent contingent consideration for which the contingency is yet to be resolved. As the contingent consideration did not qualify for recognition at the acquisition date or at August 31, 2019 under ASC 480 or ASC 815, the Company will recognize the additional payment when the contingency is resolved, and the additional shares are paid or become payable. | |
|
|
|
| b) | On February 13, 2019, the Company entered into two Share Purchase Agreements with the same vendors to acquire 100% of the outstanding shares of Falcon Ridge Naturals Ltd and 473650 B.C. Ltd. In consideration for the all the issued and outstanding shares of two entities, the Company paid $374,182 (CAD$500,000) cash, issued a $523,854 (CAD$700,000) promissory note and 950,000 common shares with a fair value of $106,642 (CAD$142,500). The note is non-interest bearing and due within 5 days of the date the Company receives the Health Canada License. The primary purpose of the acquisitions was to acquire a cannabis license, and the license is in the application stage and submitted to Health Canada, however approval for the license has not been received to date. |
|
|
|
| The Company assessed the acquisition and determined that the acquisitions did not meet the definition of a business found in ASU 2017-01. As the acquisitions did not qualify as business acquisitions, the Company accounted for the transactions as an asset acquisition. The cost of the asset acquisition is allocated on a relative fair value basis to the net assets acquired. The Company is required to allocate the cost to the individual assets acquired or liabilities assumed, based on their relative fair values. As the sole asset acquired by the Company was a cannabis license application the entire $1,342,500 cost of the acquisition was allocated to the license application. The cost of the license was the $374,182 (CAD$500,000) paid the $523,854 (CAD$700,000) promissory note issued and the fair value of the 950,000 common shares issued of $106,642 (CAD$142,500). |
6. | Promissory Note |
|
|
| On May 31, 2019, as part of the asset acquisition described in Note 4(e) the Company issued a $527,125 (CAD$700,000) promissory note. The note is unsecured, non-interest bearing and due 5 days following the Company’s receipt of the Health Canada License. |

9. | Financial risk factors |
|
|
The Company is exposed in varying degrees to a variety of financial instrument related risks.

ALLIED CORP. Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements November 30, 2019 (Expressed in US Dollars) |
9. | Financial risk factors (continued) |
| a) | Credit risk: |
|
|
|
| Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will fail to discharge an obligation and cause the other party to incur a financial loss. The Company’s primary exposure to credit risk is on its cash account. Cash accounts are held with major banks in Canada. The Company has deposited its cash with a bank from which management believes the risk of loss is low. | |
|
|
|
| b) | Liquidity risk: |
|
|
|
| Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they become due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. Accounts payable are due within the current operating period. The Company has a sufficient cash balance to settle current liabilities. The Company has a working capital deficit and requires additional financing to meet its current obligations (see Note 1). | |
|
|
|
| c) | Market risk: |
|
|
|
| Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return. The Company is not exposed to market risk. | |
|
|
|
| d) | Interest rate risk: |
|
|
|
| Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk, from time to time, on its cash balances. Surplus cash, if any, is placed on call with financial institutions and management actively negotiates favorable market related interest rates. | |
|
|
|
| e) | Foreign exchange risk: |
|
|
|
| Foreign currency risk is limited to the portion of the Company’s business transactions denominated in currencies other than the Canadian dollar. The Company has not entered into any foreign currency contracts to mitigate risk, but manages the risk my minimizing the value of financial instruments denominated in foreign currency. The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk to the extent that the following monetary assets and liabilities are denominated in Canadian dollars: |
|
| November 30, 2019 |
| |
|
|
|
| |
Balance in Canadian dollars: |
|
|
| |
Cash and cash equivalents |
| $ | 303,204 |
|
Accounts payable |
|
| (87,735 | ) |
Net exposure |
|
| 215,460 |
|
Balance in US dollars: |
| $ | 162,256 |
|
| A 10% change in the US dollar to the Canadian dollar exchange rate would impact the Company’s net loss by approximately $16,226 for the period ended November 30, 2019 (August 31, 2019 – 92,226). |

10. | Capital management |
|
|
The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it, based on the funds available to the Company, in order to support the business and continue as a going concern. The Company considers capital to be all accounts in equity. The Board of Directors does not establish quantitative return on capital criteria for management, but rather relies on the expertise of the Company’s management to sustain future development of the business. The Company has a working capital deficit and requires additional capital to finance is future business plans. The Company is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. | |
|
|
11. | Commitments |
| a) | On March 1, 2019, the Company entered into a Binding Letter of Intent with BwellMED International Holdings Ltd. (“BwellMED”), pursuant to which, the Company and BwellMED will amalgamate under the laws of the province of British Columbia to form Amalco (the “Amalgamation”).

Overview
Allied (or “Allied” or “the Company”) is a public Nevada corporation focused on bringing to market medical cannabis in Canada initially, via our wholly-owned subsidiary AM (Advanced Micro) Biosciences, Inc. that has end stage national license applications.
Allied has plans for further international expansion into South America via acquisitions of national license holders. As a research and development company, Allied’s focus is on creating and providing targeted cannabinoid health solutions for today’s medical issues. One of our top R&D priorities is developing effective Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)/Post Traumatic Stress Injury (PTSI) solutions.
Led by a team of experienced Industry experts, Allied will use that valuable data to properly select and secure the appropriate products and business activities to ensure the company’s success.
The Company’s vertically integrated approach focuses on sufferers of PTSD. This market includes:
· | Canadian Veterans, with initially an approximate 6,000 veterans available for first contact and onboarding, and a veteran base of approximately 650,000 in Canada from the War Service and Canadian Armed Forces | |
|
|
|
· | An additional 2,000,000+ Canadian veterans who also suffer in certain numbers from PTSD, including estimates of: | |
|
|
|
· | 740,000 RCMP/Police Officers | |
|
|
|
· | 925,000 Correctional Services Canada/Canadian Border Services Agency/Canadian Peace Officers | |
|
|
|
· | 280,000 Firefighters (not including volunteers) | |
|
|
|
· | 75,000 Paramedics | |
|
|
|
· | Potential South American market | |
|
|
|
· | Potential United States market: approximately 15 million veterans. |
The Company’s additional focus is on neutraceutical products for veterans and general public through bringing hemp derived nano-technology products to market in the United States. Differentiators from our competitors potentially include the low cost, high margin production that Allied has available via Colombian Production.

Critical Accounting Policies
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and are expressed in US dollars. The Company’s fiscal year-end is August 31.
Basis of presentation
The financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for any financial assets and liabilities classified as available for sale.
a) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash is comprised of cash on hand, cash held in trust accounts and demand deposits. Cash equivalents are short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities within three months when acquired. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of November 30, 2019.
b) Intangible assets
At November 30, 2019, intangible assets include a purchased brand name and product formulas which are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of 10 years, beginning from the date the products begin to be sold. As the products have not yet been commercially manufactured or distributed for sale no amortization has been recorded.
The Company periodically evaluates the reasonableness of the useful lives of these assets. Once these assets are fully amortized, they are removed from the accounts. These assets are reviewed for impairment or obsolescence when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If impaired, intangible assets are written down to fair value based on discounted cash flows or other valuation techniques. The Company has no intangibles with indefinite lives.
For long-lived assets, impairment losses are only recorded if the asset’s carrying amount is not recoverable through its undiscounted, probability-weighted future cash flows. The Company measures the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amount and the estimated fair value. When an impairment exists, the related assets are written down to fair value.
c) Long-lived assets
In accordance with ASC 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”, the Company tests long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life. Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value, which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisal in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value. There were no impairment charges recorded during the three months ended November 30, 2019.

d) Foreign currency translation and functional currency conversion
Prior to September 10, 2019, the Company’s functional currency was the Canadian dollar. Translation gains and losses from the application of the U.S. dollar as the reporting currency during the period that the Canadian dollar was the functional currency are included as part of cumulative currency translation adjustment, which is reported as a component of shareholders’ equity under accumulated other comprehensive loss.
The Company re-assessed its functional currency and determined as at September 10, 2019, its functional currency changed from the Canadian dollar to the U.S. dollar based on management’s analysis of changes in our organization. The change in functional currency was accounted for prospectively from September 10, 2019 and financial statements prior were not restated for the change in functional currency.
For periods commencing September 10, 2019, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Opening balances related to non-monetary assets and liabilities are based on prior period translated amounts, and non-monetary assets and non-monetary liabilities incurred after September 10, 2019 are translated at the approximate exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. Revenue and expense transactions are translated at the approximate exchange rate in effect at the time of the transaction. Foreign exchange gains and losses are included in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss as foreign exchange gains.
e) Share issuance costs
Costs directly attributable to the raising of capital are charged against the related share capital. Costs related to shares not yet issued are recorded as deferred share issuance costs. These costs are deferred until the issuance of the shares to which the costs relate, at which time the costs will be charged against the related share capital or charged to operations if the shares are not issued.
f) Research and development costs
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
g) Net income (loss) per common share
Net income (loss) per share is calculated in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share.” The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period is used to compute basic earning or loss per share. Diluted earnings or loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares and diluted potential common shares outstanding. Dilutive potential common shares are additional common shares assumed to be exercised.
Basic net income (loss) per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. As of November 30, 2019, the Company had no dilutive potential common shares.

h) Income taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 “Income Taxes.” Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements 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 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations.
i) Related party transactions
Related parties are any entities or individuals that, through employment, ownership or other means, possess the ability to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the Company. The Company discloses related party transactions that are outside of normal compensatory agreements, such as salaries.
Related party transactions are measured at the exchange amounts.
j) Significant accounting estimates and judgments
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Although management uses historical experience and its best knowledge of the amount, events or actions to for the basis for judgments and estimates, actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and further periods if the review affects both current and future periods.
Significant estimates and assumptions included in these financial statements relate to the valuation assumptions related to the estimated useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation, and deferred income tax assets and liabilities. Judgments are required in the assessment of the Company’s ability to continue to as going concern as described in Note 1 to the Financial Statements.

k) Financial instruments
ASC 825, “Financial Instruments,” requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 825 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 825 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1
Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
Level 3
Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The financial instruments consist principally of cash, due from related parties, accounts payable, note payable, and a loan payable to Allied. The fair value of cash when applicable is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The Company believes that the recorded values of all other financial instruments which are categorized as loans and receivables approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective relatively short maturity dates or current market rates of interest for similar instruments.

The Company does not have any liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis presented on the Company’s balance sheet as of November 30, 2019.
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash. The Company limits its exposure to credit loss by placing its cash with high credit quality financial institutions.
Cash is carried at fair value using a level 1 fair value measurement. The carrying value of accounts payable approximates its fair value because of the short-term nature of the instrument.
h) Reverse Acquisitions
Identification of the Accounting Acquirer
The Company considers factors in ASC 805-10-55-10 through 55-15 in identifying the accounting acquirer. The Company uses the existence of a controlling financial interest to identify the acquirer - the entity that obtains control of the acquiree. Other pertinent facts and circumstances also shall be considered in identifying the acquirer in a business combination effected by exchanging equity interests, including the following: (a) The relative voting rights in the combined entity after the business combination, where the acquirer usually is the combining entity whose owners as a group retain or receive the largest portion of the voting rights in the combined entity taking into consideration the existence of any unusual or special voting arrangements and options, warrants, or convertible securities; (b) the existence of a large minority voting interest in the combined entity if no other owner or organized group of owners has a significant voting interest, and where the acquirer usually is the combining entity whose single owner or organized group of owners holds the largest minority voting interest in the combined entity; (c) the composition of the governing body of the combined entity, where the acquirer usually is the combining entity whose owners have the ability to elect or appoint or to remove a majority of the members of the governing body of the combined entity; (d) the composition of the senior management of the combined entity, where the acquirer usually is the combining entity whose former management dominates the management of the combined entity; and (e) the terms of the exchange of equity interests, where the acquirer usually is the combining entity that pays a premium over the pre-combination fair value of the equity interests of the other combining entity or entities, where the acquirer usually is the combining entity whose relative size (measured in, for example, assets, revenues, or earnings) is significantly larger than that of the other combining entity or entities.

h) Reverse Acquisitions (continued)
Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 805-40-05-2, as one example of a reverse acquisition, a private operating entity may arrange for a public entity to acquire its equity interests in exchange for the equity interests of the public entity. In this situation, the public entity is the legal acquirer because it issued its equity interests, and the private entity is the legal acquiree because its equity interests were acquired. However, application of the guidance in ASC 805-10-55-11 through 55-15 results in identifying: (a) The public entity as the acquiree for accounting purposes (the accounting acquiree); and (b) the private entity as the acquirer for accounting purposes (the accounting acquirer).
Measuring the Consideration Transferred
Pursuant to ASC 805-40-30-2 and 30-3 in a reverse acquisition, the accounting acquirer usually issues no consideration for the acquiree. Instead, the accounting acquiree usually issues its equity shares to the owners of the accounting acquirer. Accordingly, the acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred by the accounting acquirer for its interest in the accounting acquiree is based on the number of equity interests the legal subsidiary would have had to issue to give the owners of the legal parent the same percentage equity interest in the combined entity that results from the reverse acquisition. The fair value of the number of equity interests calculated in that way can be used as the fair value of consideration transferred in exchange for the acquiree. The assets and liabilities of the legal acquiree are measured and recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements at their pre-combination carrying amounts (see ASC 805-40-45-2(a)).
Presentation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Post Reverse Acquisition
Pursuant to ASC 805-40-45-1 and 45-2, condensed consolidated financial statements following a reverse acquisition are issued under the name of the legal parent (accounting acquiree) but described in the notes as a continuation of the financial statements of the legal subsidiary (accounting acquirer), with one adjustment, which is to retroactively adjust the accounting acquirer’s legal capital to reflect the legal capital of the accounting acquiree. That adjustment is required to reflect the capital of the legal parent (the accounting acquiree). Comparative information presented in those condensed consolidated financial statements also is retroactively adjusted to reflect the legal capital of the legal parent (accounting acquiree). The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all of the following: (a) The assets and liabilities of the legal subsidiary (the accounting acquirer) recognized and measured at their pre-combination carrying amounts; (b) the assets and liabilities of the legal parent (the accounting acquiree) recognized and measured in accordance with the guidance in Topic 805 ”business combinations”; (c) the retained earnings and other equity balances of the legal subsidiary (accounting acquirer) before the business combination; (d) the amount recognized as issued equity interests in the condensed consolidated financial statements determined by adding the issued equity interest of the legal subsidiary (the accounting acquirer) outstanding immediately before the business combination to the fair value of the legal parent (accounting acquiree) determined in accordance with the guidance in this topic applicable to business combinations. However, the equity structure (that is, the number and type of equity interests issued) reflects the equity structure of the legal parent (the accounting acquiree), including the equity interests the legal parent issued to effect the combination.

h) Reverse Acquisitions (continued)
Accordingly, the equity structure of the legal subsidiary (the accounting acquirer) is restated using the exchange ratio established in the acquisition agreement to reflect the number of shares of the legal parent (the accounting acquiree) issued in the reverse acquisition; and (e) the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the legal subsidiary’s (accounting acquirer’s) pre-combination carrying amounts of retained earnings and other equity interests as discussed in ASC 805-40-25-2 and 805-40-30-3.
Pursuant to ASC 805-40-45-4 and 45-5, in calculating the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator of the earnings-per-share (“EPS”) calculation) during the period in which the reverse acquisition occurs: (a) The number of common shares outstanding from the beginning of that period to the acquisition date shall be computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares of the legal acquiree (accounting acquirer) outstanding during the period multiplied by the exchange ratio established in the merger agreement; and (b) the number of common shares outstanding from the acquisition date to the end of that period shall be the actual number of common shares of the legal acquirer (the accounting acquiree) outstanding during that period. The basic EPS for each comparative period before the acquisition date presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements following a reverse acquisition shall be calculated by dividing (a) by (b): (a) The income of the legal acquiree attributable to common shareholders in each of those periods; and (b) the legal acquiree’s historical weighted-average number of common shares outstanding multiplied by the exchange ratio established in the acquisition agreement.
As a result of the controlling financial interest of the former stockholders of AMBI, for financial statement reporting purposes, the asset acquisition has been treated as a reverse acquisition with AMBI deemed the accounting acquirer and the Company deemed the accounting acquiree under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805-10-55 of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC). The reverse acquisition is deemed a capital transaction and the net assets of AMBI (the accounting acquirer) are carried forward to the Company (the legal acquirer and the reporting entity) at their carrying value before the acquisition. The acquisition process utilizes the capital structure of the Company and the assets and liabilities of AMBI which are recorded at their historical cost. The equity of the Company is the historical equity of AMBI.

i) Recent accounting pronouncements
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall (Subtopic 82510) – Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.” ASU 2016-01 is intended to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision useful information. ASU 2016-01 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases,” which supersedes the current accounting for leases and while retaining two distinct types of leases, finance and operating, (1) requires lessees to record a right of use asset and a related liability for the rights and obligations associated with a lease, regardless of lease classification, and recognize lease expense in a manner similar to current accounting, (2) eliminates most real estate specific lease provisions, and, (3) aligns many of the underlying lessor model principles with those in the new revenue standard. Leases with a term of 12 months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases today. The ASU is effective for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Entities are required to use a modified retrospective approach when transitioning to the ASU for leases that exist as of or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. As the Company did not have any leases the adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the financial statements.
Change in Fiscal Year End
Effective November 12, 2019 our Board of Directors determined to change the Company’s fiscal year end from March 31 to August 31 for each year. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflects the three month period from the Company’s most recently filed Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019 through the quarter ended November 30, 2019.
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company incurred a net loss for the period of $458,167 and has no operations at this time which will generate revenue. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise sufficient financing to acquire or develop a profitable business. Management intends on financing its operations and future development activities largely from the sale of equity securities with some additional funding from other traditional financing sources, including related party loans until such time that funds provided by future planned operations are sufficient to fund working capital requirements.

The net loss for the three-month period ended November 30, 2019 is a result of office and general expense of $80,971, professional fees of $146,548 and consulting fees of $174,141. The overall increase in expenses is the result in change of business and an increase in business activities.
Net Revenues

Capital Expenditures
For the three month period ended November 30, 2019 we had $nil capital expenditures.
MediColombias Acquisition (Colombia Licensed Producer)
In May 2019, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire a company called Medi Colombias SAS. This company is based in Colombia with a full set of licenses and a lease agreement in place to begin production on a 5 hectare parcel of land. We have the ability to scale production to over hundreds of hectares. This is located in the area of Bucamaranga, Colombia.
This acquisition includes a high level scientific team of experts and significant capital expenditures spent on an irrigation holding pond, security towers, fencing, etc. to meet the Colombia minister of justice and minister of agriculture requirements.
The total acquisition price is $5,200,000. That price is payable (a) $185,000 USD within 5 days of signing the acquisition (this has been completed from the private placement funds); (b) $200,000 USD within 30 days of signing the acquisition (this has also been completed from private placement funds); (c) $315,000 USD within three months of signing the acquisition and (d) 4,500,000 shares of common stock valued at $1.00 USD per share.
An additional $700,000 USD will be paid to MediColombias in the form of Advanced Micro or Allied shares at a 30 day moving average market share price, once the terms noted in the following table are achieved. All of these performance-based production volumes are based upon product produced from MediColombias.
Falcon Ridge Acquisition (Canadian end-stage Licensed Producer applicant).
In May 2019, AM Biosciences closed a share purchase agreement and made the first installment payments for the acquisition of late stage Canadian Licensed Producer applicant: Falcon Ridge (the “Falcon Ridge Acquisition”).
The purchase is for a total of $2,150,000. This payment will be paid (a) $250,000 CDN due May 31, 2019 (this has been paid out of the proceeds of the $0.50 cent private placement); (b) $250,000 CDN due on or before July 01, 2019 (this has also been paid out of the proceeds of the $0.50 cent private placement); (c) $700,000 CDN due within five days of receiving full license (which we anticipate in the fourth quarter of 2019); and (d) 950,000 shares in AM Biosciences valued at $1.00 CDN per share.
We were given the approval from Health Canada as “Confirmation of Readiness” for this application.

Assumption of contract of purchase and sale of 8999 Jim Bailey Rd.
In November 2018, AM Biosciences assumed the contract of purchase and sale of real property located at 8999 Jim Bailey Rd. This is for the purchase of two real lots of approximately 1.1 acres each. This contract of purchase and sale is set to close in the second quarter of 2020. This land will be where the Canadian Licensed Producer and product processing and extraction facility will be located. Land preparation is well underway and is expected to be ready for when the building arrives in the second quarter of 2020.
Natural Health Products Acquisition
In May 2019, as a part of the Falcon Ridge Acquisition, the management team of AM Biosciences were able to negotiate the inclusion of a natural health products catalogue of products. This includes 50 products in the natural health vertical market. Three of these products are of particular interest as they have Natural Health Products registration numbers with Health Canada. AM Biosciences can add these to the product offerings both in Canada and the United States.
Natural health vertical run of first product: “Tactical Relief™”
In June 2019, AM Biosciences was able to source, negotiate and execute and agreement to do the first packaging run of the “Tactical Relief” product that is targeted at veterans in the United States. This product is not based on THC, but rather a Hemp-derived CBD product that is targeted at the veteran community. We anticipate selling through a small 500 product launch in the second quarter of 2019. We have been able to secure distribution in Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee and Illinois. The management and sales of this product is handled through a licensing deal with a company called Savage Consulting, LLC. Due to the national legislation in the United Sates, Allied has licensed the management of the hemp derived CBD product, Tactical Relief™ to Savage Consulting, LLC.
Xtreme Cubes construction has begun
In June 2019, AM Biosciences signed the production and manufacturing contract to begin the manufacturing of the full building for the Canada extraction and production facility. This building will be a fully scalable, modular building. This building is expected to come off of the production line in Nevada in the second quarter of 2020. We anticipate being able to extract and produce additional strain development in this building beginning third or fourth quarters 2020. The Company made an upfront payment of $230,000 USD in June 2019 and an additional payment of $903,385 in August 2019.

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide this information.
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Going Concern
The independent auditors’ report accompanying our August 31, 2019 financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $1,758,970 at November 30, 2019 and net loss of $458,168.
The Company does not yet have a history of financial stability. Historically, the principal source of liquidity has been the issuance of equity securities. In addition, the Company is in the development stage and has generated no revenues since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The ability of the Company to continue operations is dependent on the success of Management’s plans, which include the raising of capital through the issuance of equity securities, until such time that funds provided by operations are sufficient to fund working capital requirements.
The Company will require additional funding to finance the growth of its current and expected future operations as well as to achieve its strategic objectives. The Company believes its current available cash will be sufficient to meet its cash needs for the near future. There can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or terms acceptable to the Company, if at all.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.
Our management evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of November 30, 2019. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that, as of November 30, 2019, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.
This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permits us to provide only management’s report in this quarterly report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the transition period from August 31, 2019 through November 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
