NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS

Alterola Biotech, Inc. (“Alterola” and the “Company”) is a development stage company and was incorporated in Nevada on July 21, 2008. The Company was formed for the purpose of acquiring exploration and development stage mineral properties.

On October 1, 2008, the Company incorporated JRE Exploration Ltd, (“JRE”) a wholly owned subsidiary in Canada for the purpose of holding its Canadian mineral claims.

On May 3, 2010, the Company changed its focus to the development of intellectual property and accordingly sold JRE to the former president. In keeping with the change of business focus, on July 9, 2010, the Company changed its name to Alterola Biotech Inc.

Effective July 9, 2010, the Board of Directors authorized a 10 for 1 forward stock split on the issued common shares. The authorized number of common shares was increased from 90,000,000 to 140,000,000 common shares with a par value of $0.001. The number of authorized Preferred shares remained unchanged at 10,000,000 with a par value of $0.001. All references in the accompanying financial statements to the number of common shares have been restated to reflect the forward stock split.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Alterola Biotech Inc. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s registration statement filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the financial statements to be not misleading have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year 2013 as reported in Form 10-K, have been omitted.

Accounting Basis

The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP” accounting).  The Company has adopted a September 30 fiscal year end.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers highly liquid financial instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Website Development Costs

Costs incurred in developing and maintaining a website are charged to expense when incurred for the planning, content population, and administration or maintenance of the website. All development costs for the application, infrastructure, and graphics development are capitalized and subsequently reported at the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable value. Capitalized costs will be amortized using straight-line basis over two years, the estimated economic life of the completed website. As of June 30, 2014, the Company’s website was not in service; accordingly no amortization has been recorded during the periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Alterola’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accrued expenses, accrued interest and notes payable. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity. In addition, the fair value of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk including our own credit risk.

In addition to defining fair value, the disclosure requirements around fair value establish a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs which is expanded. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. Each fair value measurement is reported in one of the three levels which is determined by the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. These levels are:

Level 1 – inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.

Level 2 – inputs are based upon significant observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 – inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques that include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques.

The carrying value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities which consist of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and notes payable are valued using level 1 inputs. The Company believes that the recorded values approximate their fair value due to the short maturity of such instruments. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, exchange or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Income Taxes

Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.

Revenue Recognition

The Company will recognize revenue when products are fully delivered or services have been provided and collection is reasonably assured.

Loss Per Common Share

Basic loss per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each reporting period. Diluted loss per share includes potentially dilutive securities such as outstanding options and warrants, using various methods such as the treasury stock or modified treasury stock method in the determination of dilutive shares outstanding during each reporting period. The Company does not have any potentially dilutive instruments.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 718. To date, the Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options.

During the year ended September 30, 2013, the Company issued 37,000,000 shares of common stock to its director.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On June 10, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued update ASU 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915).   Amongst other things, the amendments in this update removed the definition of development stage entity from Topic 915, thereby removing the distinction between development stage entities and other reporting entities from US GAAP.  In addition, the amendments eliminate the requirements for development stage entities to (1) present inception-to-date information on the statements of income, cash flows and shareholders equity, (2) label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity;  (3) disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged and (4) disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer a development stage entity that in prior years it had been in the development stage.  The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2014 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, however entities are permitted to early adopt for any annual or interim reporting period for which the financial statements have yet to be issued.  The Company has elected to early adopt these amendments and accordingly have not labeled the financial statements as those of a development stage entity and have not presented inception-to-date information on the respective financial statements.

Alterola does not expect the adoption of any other recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

NOTE 7 – INCOME TAXES

For the period ended June 30, 2014, Alterola has incurred net losses and, therefore, has no tax liability. The net deferred tax asset generated by the loss carry-forward has been fully reserved. The cumulative net operating loss carry-forward is approximately $491,501 at June 30, 2014, and will expire beginning in the year 2028.

The provision for Federal income tax consists of the following for the periods ended June 30:

The cumulative tax effect at the expected rate of 34% of significant items comprising our net deferred tax amount is as follows:

Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $491,501 for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in future years.

NOTE 8 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

In accordance with ASC Topic 855-10, the Company has analyzed its operations subsequent to June 30, 2014 to the date these financial statements were issued, and has determined that it does not have any material subsequent events to disclose in these financial statements.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions.

Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse affect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Further information concerning our business, including additional factors that could materially affect our financial results, is included herein and in our other filings with the SEC.

Overview

Corporate History

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on July 21, 2008 under the name “Jedediah Resources Corp.” We are a development stage company.

After our formation, we were in the business of mineral exploration. On May 3, 2010, however, we entered into two agreements with Ola S. Juvkam-Wold (“Juvkam-Wold”), who was then our Chief Executive Officer and a director of our company: a Stock Purchase Agreement and General Release and Settlement Agreement. Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, Mr. Juvkam-Wold agreed to cancel and return 55,000,000 shares of common stock owned by him to us in consideration for all of the issued and outstanding stock of our wholly owned subsidiary, JRE Exploration Ltd. (“JRE”), and the cancellation of all debt owed by JRE to us. Pursuant to the Release and Settlement, Mr. Juvkam-Wold released us from any and all claims Mr. Juvkam-Wold may have against us or our affiliates. Our mineral exploration business was housed in JRE, and the transaction jettisoned the business from our company. Mr. Juvkam-Wold resigned as our officer and director and Soren Nielson took his place.

On May 3, 2010, we entered into an Intellectual Property Assignment Agreement (“IP Agreement”) with Soren Nielsen pursuant to which Mr. Nielsen transferred his right, title and interest in all intellectual property relating to certain chewing gum compositions having appetite suppressant activity (the “IP”) to us in consideration for the issuance of 55,000,000 newly issued shares of our common stock. Following the acquisition of the IP we changed our business direction and, during the quarterly period covered by this report, were pursuing the development of chewing gums for the delivery of Nutraceutical/functional ingredients for applications such as appetite suppressant, cholesterol suppressant, vitamin delivery, antioxidant delivery and motion sickness suppressant.

On July 9, 2010, we changed our name from “Jedediah Resources Corp.” to “Alterola Biotech Inc,” increased our authorized common stock to 140,000,000 shares and conducted a forward split of 10 for 1 of our issued and outstanding common stock.

On December 21, 2010, we issued 250,000 shares at $0.20 for aggregate proceeds of $50,000.

On February 28, 2011, Mr. Nielson resigned as our officer and director and Tobias Hedstrom took his place. On March 15, 2011, we entered into an agreement with Mr. Nielsen to cancel and return 15,000,000 shares he held in our company back to treasury in exchange for a complete release of all claims. We also paid a company controlled by Mr. Nielson $50,000 for unpaid and accrued management fees.

On February 12, 2012, Mr. Hedstrom resigned as our officer and director and Rene Lauritsen took his place. Mr. Lauritsen is currently the sole member of our board of directors and our President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary.

On July 16, 2013, we issued Mr. Lauritsen 37,000,000 shares of our common stock in consideration for his service as our officer from February 12, 2012.

Plan of Operation

Our plan is to use our IP and develop and market Nutraceutical/functional chewing gum and in the future medicinal chewing gum. We are ardently researching new ways to use chewing gum as a delivery system, expanding on the kinds of applications chewing gum has been used for in the past. We expect to reveal functional chewing gum for new applications by the end of 2014 and in the future we plan to develop gum for the delivery of medicines.

Our mission is to improve the health and quality of life for millions of people all over the world who are unable to or have difficulty with swallowing tablets. As much as 40% of the adult population and an even greater percentage of the adolescent population have difficulties swallowing pills, and we believe our solutions will greatly benefit them.

Presently, we are focused on nutrition and health chewing gum with natural based ingredients. The products below are currently under development and we are working to file patents to protect the ingredients in these products.

• Appetite suppressor
• Cholesterol suppressor
• Antioxidant gum
• Motion sickness suppressor
• Vitamin gum

In order to implement our business plan, however, we will need to raise funds. We were able to secure a small loan of $25,000 to pay the legal and accounting fees needed to bring our reporting filings current with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We will need more funds to meet our timetable of introducing Nutraceutical/functional chewing gum by the end of 2014.

Results of Operations for the Three and Nine Months Ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and Period from Inception (July 21, 2008) to June 30, 2014

We have generated no revenues since inception and we do not anticipate earning revenues until such time that we are able to market and sell our products.

We incurred operating expenses of $7,161 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared with operating expenses of $650 for the three months ended June 30, 2013. We incurred operating expenses of $27,873 for the nine months ended June 30, 2014, compared with operating expenses of $1,950 for the nine months ended June 30, 2013. Our operating expenses in 2014 increased from 2013 mainly as a result of accounting expenses, consulting fees and legal fees. We incurred operating expenses of $444,899 for the period from inception (July 21, 2008) to June 30, 2014.

We incurred other expenses of $3,500 and $13,125 in the form of interest expenses and interest expenses and financing costs for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, as compared to $2,400 and $7,200 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, where both periods were entirely made up of interest expenses. We incurred other expenses of $46,601 for the period from inception (July 21, 2008) to June 30, 2014.

We incurred a net loss of $10,661 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, as compared with a net loss of $3,050 for the three months ended June 30, 2013. We incurred a net loss of $40,998 for the nine months ended June 30, 2014, as compared with a net loss of $9,150 for the nine months ended June 30, 2013. We incurred a net loss of $491,500 for the period from inception (July 21, 2008) to June 30, 2014.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2014, we had no current assets and currently liabilities of $197,625. We had a working capital deficit of $197,625 as of June 30, 2014.

Operating activities used $15,327 in cash for the nine months ended June 30, 2014. Our negative operating cash flow was attributable to funding the loss for the period, offset by a decrease in prepaid expenses, deferred financing costs, and an increase in accrued interest and accrued expenses.

Based upon our current financial condition, we do not have sufficient cash to operate our business at the current level for the next twelve months. We intend to fund operations through increased sales and debt and/or equity financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund expenditures or other cash requirements. We plan to seek additional financing in a private equity offering to secure funding for operations. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional funding. If we are not able to secure additional funding, the implementation of our business plan will be impaired. There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms or at all.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2014, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.

Going Concern

Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred cumulative losses of $491,500 for the period July 21, 2008 (inception date) through June 30, 2014, expect to incur further losses in the development of our business and have been dependent on funding operations through the issuance of convertible debt and private sale of equity securities. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans include continuing to finance operations through the private or public placement of debt and/or equity securities and the reduction of expenditures. However, no assurance can be given at this time as to whether we will be able to achieve these objectives. The financial statements do not include any adjustment relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Item 4.     Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of June 30, 2014. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the presence of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management has identified the following material weaknesses which have caused management to conclude that, as of June 30, 2014, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both US GAAP and SEC guidelines.

Remediation Plan to Address the Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our company plans to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal controls over financial reporting. During the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to implement the following changes during our fiscal year ending September 30, 2014: (i) appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; and (ii) adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. The remediation efforts set out are largely dependent upon our securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner.

We are unable to remedy our controls related to the inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management until we receive financing to hire additional employees. 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.     Legal Proceedings
