The accompanying notes are an integral part of these condensed interim financial statements.

1. Nature of Business and Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

Arvana Inc. (“our”, “we”,”us” and the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada as Turinco, Inc. on September 16, 1977. On July 24, 2006, the shareholders approved a change of the Company’s name from Turinco, Inc. to Arvana Inc. The reporting currency and functional currency of the Company is the United States dollar (“US Dollar”) and the accompanying financial statements have been expressed in US Dollars.

On March 17, 2016, the Company entered into a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with CaiE Food Partnership Ltd. (“CaiE”) for the purpose of acquiring CaiE as a wholly-owned subsidiary. CaiE is in the business of manufacturing and distributing fresh Dim Sum food products from a facility based in Sparks, Nevada. In the event that the Company does not complete the acquisition of CaiE, its intention will be to identify and evaluate alternative business opportunities that might be a good match for the Company.

These condensed financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2019, the Company recognized a net loss of $38,870 as a result of general administrative expenses, professional fees, interest expenses and foreign exchange. At March 31, 2019, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $2,364,835. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company will require continued financial support from its shareholders and creditors until it is able to generate sufficient cash flow from operations on a sustained basis. There is substantial doubt that the Company will be successful at achieving these results. Failure to obtain the ongoing support of its shareholders and creditors may make the going concern basis of accounting inappropriate, in which case the Company’s assets and liabilities would need to be recognized at their liquidation values. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might arise from this uncertainty.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

a) Basis of presentation

The Company is in the process of evaluating CaiE Food Partnership Ltd. (“CaiE”) as a business opportunity and has minimal operating expensess. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31. The accompanying condensed interim financial statements of Arvana Inc. for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) for financial information with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. The condensed interim financial statements and notes appearing in this report should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and related notes thereto, together with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on April 15, 2019. Results are not necessarily indicative of those which may be achieved in future periods.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

b) Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These estimates include the recognition of deferred tax assets based on the change in unrecognized deductible temporary tax differences.

c) Financial instruments

The Company uses the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate such values:

Cash - the carrying amount approximates fair value because the amounts consist of cash held at a bank.

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities, convertible loan, loans payable and amounts due to related parties - the carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the obligations.

The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 are as follows:

The following table presents information about the assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2019, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair value. In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize data points that are observable such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and included situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset:

The fair value of cash is determined through market, observable and corroborated sources.

d) Recent accounting pronouncements

New and amended standards adopted by the Company

The following new and amended standards were adopted by the Company for the first time in this reporting period.

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The standard requires the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition. The standard requires lessors to classify leases as either sales-type, finance or operating. A sales-type lease occurs if the lessor transfers all the risks and rewards, as well as control of the underlying asset, to the lessee. If risks and rewards are conveyed without the transfer of control, the lease is treated as a financing lease. If the lessor does not convey risks and rewards or control, which results in an operating lease. The standard became effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement disclosures.

In July 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Updates ASU 2017-11, requiring certain changes to the presentation and disclosures of changes to liability or equity classification of financial instruments. The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement disclosures.

In June 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Updates ASU 2018-07, requiring certain changes to nonemployee share-based payment accounting. The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement disclosures.

New standards and interpretations not yet adopted by the Company

Several new standards and amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for annual periods beginning after the closing date of this report and have not been applied in preparing these condensed interim financial statements:

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Updates ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, requiring certain changes to the recognition and measurement as well as disclosure of incurred and expected credit losses. The standard will become effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2020. The Company is currently assessing the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on its results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement disclosures.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

d) Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

New standards and interpretations not yet adopted by the Company (continued)

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Updates ASU 2018-13 which changes the fair value measurement disclosure requirements of ASC 820. The amendments in this ASU are the result of a broader disclosure project known as FASB Concepts Statement, Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting – Chapter 8: Notes to Financial Statements. The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently assessing the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on its results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement disclosures.

8. Convertible Loans

On May 18, 2016, the Company issued a convertible promissory note (“Convertible Note”) pursuant to which the Company received $50,000 from CaiE due on November 17, 2017. The $50,000 Convertible Note is convertible into common stock, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time before maturity at the option of the holder at a fixed price of $0.20 per share. Due to the conversion price being lower than the closing share price on the issuance date, a beneficial conversion feature was recognized as a discount against the convertible note. The Convertible Note accrues interest at a rate equal to 10% per year. During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, $nil and $nil of the discount was amortized as interest expense, respectively. Interest expense recognized on this loan was $1,250 for the period ended March 31, 2019, compared to $1,250 for the period ended March 31, 2018. As at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the balance of the Convertible Note was $50,000. On November 17, 2017, the Company entered into an amending agreement to extend the maturity date to March 31, 2018; all other terms remained unchanged. On March 31, 2018, the Company entered into an additional amending agreement to further extend the maturity date of the Convertible Note to March 31, 2019. All other terms remained unchanged.

On October 12, 2018, the Company issued an additional convertible note with CaiE pursuant to which the Company received $27,800 during the year ended December 31, 2017 and $30,000 during the year ended December 31, 2018. The $57,800 convertible note is due on October 11, 2019 and is convertible into common stock, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time before maturity at the option of the holder at a fixed price of $0.20 per share. Due to the conversion price being lower than the closing share price on the issuance date, a beneficial conversion feature was recognized as a discount against the convertible note. The convertible note accrues interest at a rate equal to 10% per year. During the period ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, $14,450 and $nil of the discount was amortized as interest expense, respectively. Interest expense recognized on this loan was $1,445 for the period ended March 31, 2019, compared to $nil for the period ended March 31, 2018. As at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the balance of the convertible note was $57,800.

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

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and other parts of this quarterly report contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements can also be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “expects,” “believes,” “plans,” “predicts,” and similar terms. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and our actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include but are not limited to those discussed in the subsection entitled Forward-Looking Statements and Factors That May Affect Future Results and Financial Condition below. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included in this report. Our fiscal year end is December 31. All information presented herein is based on the three months ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018.

Overview

The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 16, 1977, as “Turinco, Inc.” to engage in any legal undertaking. On July 24, 2006, the Company’s name was changed from Turinco, Inc. to Arvana Inc. to reflect the acquisition of Arvana Networks, Inc., a telecommunications business. We discontinued efforts related to our telecommunications business as of December 31, 2009. We have since been in the process of seeking other business opportunities.

Our office is located at 299 S. Main Street, 13th Floor, Salt Lake City, Utah 84111, and our telephone number is (801) 232-7395. Our registered agent is JAD Communications LLC., 5209 West Gowan Road, Las Vegas, Nevada 89130.

The Company currently is traded on the OTC Markets Group, Inc.’s Pink Sheets Current Information over the counter market platform under the symbol “AVNI.”

Company

On March 17, 2016, the Company entered into a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with CaiE Food Partnership Ltd. (“CaiE”) for the purpose of acquiring CaiE as a wholly owned subsidiary. CaiE is in the business of manufacturing and distributing fresh Dim Sum food products from a facility based in Sparks Nevada. The MOU anticipates that the Company will issue, subject to shareholder approval, a fully diluted sixty-seven percent (67%) interest in its common stock in exchange for CaiE. The MOU further provides that CaiE lend the Company fifty thousand dollars ($50,000) on a convertible basis prior to the consummation of the transaction. The anticipated transaction will require the Company to convert existing debt into shares of its common stock, increase the number of authorized common shares, elect a new Board of Directors and change its name to reflect the new business. CaiE has loaned the Company $116,400 as of the filing date of this report.

In the event that the Company does not complete the acquisition of CaiE, its intention will be to identify and evaluate alternative business opportunities that might be a good match for the Company. We will not be able to develop any identified business opportunities without additional financing. Our Board of Directors is actively pursuing financing to maintain operations.

Plan of Operation

The Company’s plan of operation over the next twelve months is to acquire CaiE as a wholly owned subsidiary on those terms to be provided within definitive agreements based on the MOU and thereafter to focus on CaiE’s business model. We will require a minimum of $50,000 in funding over the next 12 months to maintain operations and acquire CaiE. On completing the acquisition of CaiE, the Company may need additional capital to grow CaiE’s business. The amount of funding that may be required for this purpose is not determinable at this time.

Should the Company not complete the anticipated transaction with CaiE then it will seek to identify an alternative business opportunity for which purpose it will require a minimum of $25,000 in funding over the next 12 months. The Company will most likely need additional funding to complete any alternative transaction that might be identified within this time frame.

We anticipate that the required prospective funding in the near term will be in the form of convertible debt financing from CaiE. Should the Company not complete the anticipated transaction with CaiE, then requisite funding may come from the sale of our common shares or unsecured shareholder loans. The Company does not have any alternative financing arranged and cannot be certain that it will be able to realize funding from the sale of equity or that shareholders will continue to provide loans. Accordingly, we will require continued financial support from our shareholders and creditors until the Company is able to generate sufficient cash flow to maintain operations on a sustained basis. There is substantial doubt that the Company will be successful in maintaining operations unless it completes the acquisition of CaiE.

Results of Operations

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company satisfied periodic public disclosure requirements and continued to finance its operations with convertible loans from CaiE.

Our operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 are summarized in the following table.

Net Losses

Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $38,870 as compared to net loss of $15,910 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, an increase of 144%. The increase of net loss over the three-month period ended March 31, 2019, compared to the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, can be primarily attributed to an increase in interest expense and foreign exchange loss, offset by a decrease in general administrative expenses over the comparable three-month periods. The increase in interest expense is attributed to amounts owed to creditors that include CaiE, while the loss on foreign exchange is due to an increase in the value of foreign currencies against the US dollar, which increase has negatively impacted the cost of those expenses that are payable in foreign currencies over the comparable three-month periods.

The Company did not generate revenue during this period and expects to continue to incur losses over the next twelve months or until such time as operations generate more income than expenses.

Capital Expenditures

The Company expended no amounts on capital expenditures for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019.

Impact of Inflation

The Company believes that inflation has had a negligible effect on operations over the past three years.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since inception, the Company has experienced significant changes in liquidity, capital resources, and stockholders’ deficiency.

The Company had assets of $997 as of March 31, 2019, consisting of cash and a working capital deficit of $2,364,835, as compared to assets of $815, consisting of cash and a working capital deficit of $2,325,965 as of December 31, 2018. Net stockholders' deficit in the Company was $2,364,835 at March 31, 2019, as compared to a net stockholder’s deficit in the Company of $2,325,965 at December 31, 2018.

Cash Used in Operating Activities

Net cash flow used in operating activities for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 was $5,418 as compared to $1,021 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018. Changes in net cash used in operating activities in the current three-month period can be attributed primarily to a number of items that are book expense items which do not affect the total amount relative to actual cash used such as unrealized foreign exchange and accretion of convertible debt. Balance sheet accounts that actually affect cash, but are not income statement related items that are added or deducted to arrive at net cash used in operating activities, include accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and amounts due to related parties.

We expect to continue to use net cash flow in operating activities over the next twelve months or until such time as the Company can generate sufficient revenue to offset operating expenses.

Cash Used in Investing Activities

We expect to use net cash flow in investing activities in connection with the prospective acquisition of CaiE. However, until such time as such transaction is concluded, we do not expect to use net cash flows in investing activities.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Cash flow provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019, was $5,600 as compared to $nil for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The cash flows provided from financing activities over the comparative three-month periods are attributed to loans from CaiE.

We expect to continue to use cash flow provided by financing activities to maintain operations and acquire CaiE. In the event the prospective acquisition of CaiE is not completed, the Company will seek to identify an alternative business opportunity.

The Company’s current assets are insufficient to conduct its plan of operation over the next twelve (12) months, as it will need at least $50,000 to maintain operations and acquire CaiE. The Company secured a convertible loan of $50,000 in 2016, an additional convertible loan of $57,800 in 2017 and 2018, and an additional loan of $5,600 in the first quarter of 2019 from CaiE. Subsequent to the period end, the Company received an additional loan of $3,000 from CaiE. Despite these loans, the Company has no commitments or arrangements for the funding necessary to complete the acquisition of CaiE. The Company’s shareholders or CaiE are the most likely sources of funding, though none have made any commitment for future investment. The Company’s inability to obtain sufficient funding to maintain operations would have a material adverse effect on its ability to continue operations.

The Company does not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

The Company had no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements as of March 31, 2019.

The Company had no commitments for future capital expenditures that were material at March 31, 2019.

The Company has no defined benefit plan or contractual commitment with any of its officers or directors.

The Company has no current plans for the purchase or sale of any plant or equipment.

The Company has no current plans to make any changes in the number of employees.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2019, we have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that are material to stockholders.

Future Financings

We anticipate continuing to rely on debt or equity sales of our shares of common stock in order to continue to fund our business operations. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of our equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our plan of operation.

Critical Accounting Policies

In Note 2 to the audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, included in our Form 10-K, the Company discusses those accounting policies that are considered to be significant in determining the results of operations and its financial position. The Company believes that the accounting principles utilized by it conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The preparation of financial statements requires Company management to make significant estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. By their nature, these judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates estimates. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and other facts and circumstances that are believed to be reasonable, and the results form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities. The actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Going Concern

Management of the Company has expressed an opinion as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as a result of an accumulated deficit of $23,646,050 since inception and negative cash flows from operating activities as of March 31, 2019. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is subject to the ability of the Company to obtain funding from outside sources. Management’s plan to address the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern includes obtaining funding from the private placement of equity or through debt financing. Management believes that it will be able to obtain funding to allow the Company to remain a going concern through the methods discussed above, though there can be no assurances that such methods will prove successful.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In connection with the preparation of this quarterly report, an evaluation was carried out by the Company’s management, with the participation of the chief executive officer and the acting chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”)) as of March 31, 2019. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management concluded, as of the end of the period covered by this report, that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in recording, processing, summarizing, and reporting information required to be disclosed, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and such information was not accumulated and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
