Better For You Wellness, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 - Organization and Description of Business
Better For You Wellness, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our”, the “Company” or the “Registrant”) was originally incorporated with the name Fast Track Solutions, Inc. in the State of Nevada on December 1, 2020.
On April 26, 2021, the Company entered into an “Agreement and Plan of Merger”, whereas it agreed to, and subsequently participated in, a Nevada holding company reorganization pursuant to NRS 92A.180, NRS 92A.200, NRS 92A.230 and NRS 92A.250 (“Reorganization”). The constituent corporations in the Reorganization were Sauer Energy, Inc. (“SENY” or “Predecessor”), Fast Track Solutions, Inc. (“Successor”), and Fast Track Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”). Our former director, Jeffrey DeNunzio, was the sole director/officer of each constituent corporation in the Reorganization.
Fast Track Solutions, Inc. issued 1,000 common shares of its common stock to Predecessor and Merger Sub issued 1,000 shares of its common stock to Fast Track Solutions, Inc. immediately prior to the Reorganization. As such, immediately prior to the merger, Fast Track Solutions, Inc. became a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Sauer Energy, Inc. and Merger Sub became a wholly owned and direct subsidiary of Fast Track Solutions, Inc.
Pursuant to the above, on April 26, 2021, Sauer Energy, Inc. filed Articles of Merger with the Nevada Secretary of State. The merger became effective on May 5, 2021, at 4:00 PM EST (“Effective Time”). At the Effective Time, Predecessor was merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger), and Predecessor became the surviving corporation. Each share of Predecessor common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Fast Track Solutions, Inc.’s (“Successors”) common stock.
Fast Track Solutions, Inc., as successor issuer to Sauer Energy, Inc., continued to trade in the OTC MarketPlace under the previous ticker symbol “SENY” until the new ticker symbol “FTRK” for the Company was released into the OTC MarketPlace on May 6, 2021. The Company was given a new CUSIP Number by CUSIP Global Services for its common stock of 31188W108.
The Company believes that the Reorganization, deemed effective on May 5, 2021, was not a transaction of the type described in subparagraph (a) of Rule 145 under the Securities Act of 1933 and the consummation of the Reorganization will not be deemed to involve an “offer”, “offer to sell”, “offer for sale” or “sale” within the meaning of Section 2(3) of the Securities Act of 1933. The Reorganization was consummated without the vote or consent of the Company’s stockholders. In addition, the provisions of NRS 92A.180 did not provide a stockholder of the Company with appraisal rights in connection with the Reorganization. The Company believes that in the absence of any right of any of the Company’s stockholders to vote with respect to the Reorganization or to insist that their shares be purchased for fair value, the Reorganization could not be deemed to involve an “offer” “offer to sell” or “sale” within the meaning of Section 2(3) of the Securities Act of 1933.”
On May 5, 2021, after the completion of the Holding Company Reorganization, we canceled all of the stock we held in Sauer Energy, Inc., resulting in Sauer Energy, Inc. as a stand-alone company. Pursuant to the holding company merger agreement and effects of merger, all of the assets and liabilities, if any, remain with Sauer Energy, Inc. after the Reorganization. Jeffrey DeNunzio, the Director of Sauer Energy, Inc., did not discover any assets of Sauer Energy, Inc. from the time he was appointed Director until the completion of the Reorganization and subsequent separation of Sauer Energy, Inc. as a stand-alone company.
Given that the former business plan and objectives of Sauer Energy, Inc. and the business plan and objectives of Fast Track Solutions, Inc. substantially differed from one another, we conducted the corporate separation with Sauer Energy, Inc. immediately after the effective time of the Reorganization in order to avoid any shareholder confusion. The former business plan of Sauer Energy, Inc. (the development and marketing of wind powered electric generators) under the leadership of its former directors, did not, in any way, represent the blank check business plan of Fast Track Solutions, Inc. at that time, and thus it is the belief of the Company that the corporate separation ameliorated shareholder confusion about our identity and/or corporate objectives. It is our belief that Sauer Energy was a shell company at the time of the Reorganization.
6
The corporate actions taken by the Company, including, but not limited to, the corporate structuring of the transactions, was deemed, in the discretion of our sole director, to be for the benefit of the corporation and its shareholders. Former shareholders of Sauer Energy, Inc. were then the shareholders of Fast Track Solutions, Inc. and had the opportunity to benefit from a business combination with another company. The Company intended to serve as a vehicle to affect an asset acquisition, merger, exchange of capital stock or other business combination with a domestic or foreign business at that time
After the reorganization and through July 18, 2021, CRS Consulting, LLC, a Wyoming LLC owned and controlled by Jeffrey DeNunzio, Thomas DeNunzio and Paul Moody, was our controlling shareholder, owning 700,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and 250,000,000 shares of Restricted Common Stock.
On July 19, 2021, Better For You Wellness, Inc., FKA “Fast Track Solutions, Inc.”, a Nevada Corporation (the “Company”), entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) by and among CRS Consulting, LLC, a Wyoming Limited Liability Company (“CRS”), Green Ohio Ventures, LLC, an Ohio Limited Liability Company (“GOHV”), Ian James, and Stephen Letourneau, pursuant to which, on July 30, 2021 (“Closing Date”), CRS sold 700,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock and 250,000,000 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 89.62% voting control of the Company; 350,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were transferred to Ian James, 350,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were transferred to Stephen Letourneau, and 250,000,000 shares of Common Stock were transferred to GOHV. The aforementioned purchasers, collectively, paid consideration of three hundred thirty-five thousand dollars ($335,000) (the “Purchase Price”). The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement resulted in a change in control of the Company, with GOHV, Ian James, and Stephen Letourneau, becoming the Company’s largest controlling stockholders having approximately 89.62% combined voting control over the Company.
Pursuant to the Agreement, on July 30, 2021, Mr. Jeffrey DeNunzio resigned as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer, and Director.
On July 30, 2021, Mr. Ian James was appointed as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer, and Chairman of the Board of Directors and Mr. Stephen Letourneau was appointed as a Director.
On August 19, 2021, the Company filed an 8-K with the SEC to disclose an amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation that the Company filed on August 18, 2021, with the Nevada Secretary of State to change its name to Better For You Wellness, Inc. Within the aforementioned 8-K, the Company disclosed that, at the time, it was pending a FINRA corporate action to affect the name change on the OTC to Better For You Wellness, Inc., and also a ticker symbol change. FINRA announced, on their September 29, 2021 daily list, that the market effective date of our name change, and ticker symbol change, will be September 30, 2021. On September 30, 2021, we will begin trading under the symbol BFYW. The new CUSIP number associated with our common stock, as of the market effective date of September 30, 2021, is 08771B105.
On August 24, 2021, Green Ohio Ventures, LLC transferred 17,963,817 shares of restricted Common Stock of Better for You Wellness, Inc. to MRKTS Group Inc. for consulting services provided. This transaction did not result in MRKTS Group Inc. owning 5% or more of any class of securities of the issuer.
From August 24, 2021 to August 25, 2021, Green Ohio Ventures, LLC distributed, at no cost and in various quantities, a total of 24,137,499 shares of restricted Common Stock of Better for You Wellness, Inc. to 18 of its 20 members. No shares were distributed from GOHV to Ian James and Stephen Letourneau. The aforementioned transaction(s) did not result in any individual shareholder owning 5% or more of any class of securities of the issuer. The aforementioned transaction was carried out as it was deemed by GOHV to be in the best interests of its members.
On August 27, 2021, Montel Williams, Leslie G. Bumgarner, Joseph J. Watson, David H. Deming, and Dr. Nicola R. Finley, MD, were each appointed by our Board of Directors to serve as Independent Directors of the Company.
On September 1, 2021, we entered into Independent Director Agreements with each of Montel Williams, Leslie G. Bumgarner, Joseph J. Watson, David H. Deming, and Dr. Nicola R. Finley, MD, pursuant to which each director will serve two year terms, with the option to renew terms upon completion, and receive cash compensation in the amount of $1,000 per annum, paid in equal $250 distributions quarterly, and 200,000 shares of common stock, issued quarterly in 25,000 share distributions, and a non-qualified stock option to purchase up to 4,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.25 per share. The Directors were officially seated September 12, 2021, after notification to shareholders. On December 14, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously approved the appointment of Christina Jefferson to the Board as an Independent Director, effective January 1, 2022. Christina Jefferson replaced Leslie Bumgarner whose resignation, as previously announced, became effective December 31, 2021.
7
On February 3. 2022, the Company was approved by OTC Markets to up-list its common stock from the OTC Pink Sheets to the OTCQB® Venture Market (the “OTCQB”). The Company began trading of its common shares on the OTCQB as of the market open on February 3, 2022, under its same symbol, “BFYW.”
On February 5, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors unanimously approved the establishment of a Strategic Advisory Committee. The Board appointed six initial members by unanimous consent including David King, Laurie Racine, Zhiping Zhang, Melisse Gelula, Christopher Brown, and Kate Hendrickson.
Also on February 5, 2022, by unanimous vote of the Company’s Board of Directors’ five non-executive Independent Directors, David Deming was appointed Chairperson of the Company’s Audit Committee, which follows the Board’s October 1, 2021, unanimous consent to establish the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee currently consists of three non-executive Independent Directors, including Montel Williams, Joseph Watson, and David Deming. Also, by unanimous vote of the Board’s five non-executive Independent Directors, Christina Jefferson was appointed to the Company’s Compensation Committee, filling the vacancy left by former Director Leslie Bumgarner. This action follows the Board’s October 1, 2021, unanimous consent to establish the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee currently consists of Independent Directors, Christina Jefferson, Montel Williams, and Joseph Watson. Additionally, the Board’s five non-executive Independent Directors unanimously appointed Joseph Watson as Chairperson of the Compensation Committee.
The Company’s current business plan is to explore and evaluate various opportunities in the plant-based food and beverage and consumer packaged goods sectors, including but not limited to, mergers, acquisitions, or business combination transactions, after which the Company would cease to be a “shell” or “blank check” company. The Company’s principal business objective for the next 12 months and beyond will be to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with a business rather than immediate, short-term earnings.
On November 15, 2021, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Glow Market, LLC was formed in the State of Ohio. Subsequently, Glow Market, LLC launched its first brand, Better Suds, an online retailer of specialty all-natural, cruelty-free, gluten-free and chemical-free soaps. Better Suds commenced operations in December 2021.
On April 29, 2022 the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “MIPA”) with Amanda Cayemitte and Yapo M’be (referred to together as the “Sellers”) to acquire the right, title and interest in, including all of the outstanding membership interests (referred to together as the “MM Interests”) of Mango Moi, LLC (“Mango Moi”).

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Glow Markets, LLC and Mango Moi, LLC. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Basis of Presentation
This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles, generally accepted in the United States of America, and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
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 of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading have been included. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents at May 31, 2022 and February 28, 2022 were $2,695 and $9,719 respectively.
Revenue recognition
The Company adopted ASC 606 - Revenue from contracts with Customers: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.
Revenue for products is recognized when the products are delivered to the customer and the customer completes the product inspection. Cash receipts for undelivered products are recorded as deferred revenues. As of May 31, 2022, the Company had no deferred revenues.
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. 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. No deferred tax assets or liabilities were recognized at May 31, 2022.

Basic Earnings (Loss) Per Share
The Company computes basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vest resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the earnings of the Company.
The Company does not have any potentially dilutive instruments as of May 31, 2022 and, thus, anti-dilution issues are not applicable.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s balance sheet includes certain financial instruments. The carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair value because of the relatively short period of time between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization.
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
- Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.
- Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
- Level 3 - Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of May 31, 2022. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. These financial instruments include accrued expenses.
Related Parties
The Company follows ASC 850, Related Party Disclosures, for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.
Share-Based Compensation
ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee services are acquired. Transactions include incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares, options, and other equity instruments such as employee stock ownership plans and stock appreciation rights. Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on their fair values. That expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period).
10
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505-50, “Equity – Based Payments to Non-Employees.” Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The fair value of the share-based payment transaction is determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date.
The Company had no stock-based compensation plans as of May 31, 2022 and February 28, 2022.
The Company’s stock-based compensation for the period ended May 31, 2022 and May 31, 2021 was $516,407 and $70,000, respectively.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 is amended by ASU 2018-01, ASU2018-10, ASU 2018-11, ASU 2018-20 and ASU 2019-01, which FASB issued in January 2018, July 2018, July 2018, December 2018 and March 2019, respectively (collectively, the amended ASU 2016-02). The amended ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize on the balance sheet a right-of-use asset, representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term, and a lease liability for all leases with terms greater than 12 months. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee have not significantly changed from current GAAP. The amended ASU 2016-02 retains a distinction between finance leases (i.e. capital leases under current GAAP) and operating leases. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases will be substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases under current GAAP. The amended ASU 2016-02 also requires qualitative and quantitative disclosures designed to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. A modified retrospective transition approach is permitted to be used when an entity adopts the amended ASU 2016-02, which includes a number of optional practical expedients that entities may elect to apply.
We have no assets and or leases and do not believe we will be impacted in the foreseeable future by the newly adopted accounting standard(s) mentioned above.
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
Note 3 - Going Concern
The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Company demonstrates adverse conditions that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year following the issuance of these financial statements. These adverse conditions are negative financial trends, specifically operating loss, working capital deficiency, and other adverse key financial ratios.
The Company has not established enough sources of revenue to cover its operating costs. Management plans to fund operating expenses with related party contributions to capital. There is no assurance that management’s plan will be successful. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event that the Company cannot continue as a going concern.
11
Note 4 - Income Taxes
The Company has not recognized an income tax benefit for its operating losses generated based on uncertainties concerning its ability to generate taxable income in future periods. The tax benefit for the period presented is offset by a valuation allowance established against deferred tax assets arising from the net operating losses, the realization of which could not be considered more likely than not. In future periods, tax benefits and related deferred tax assets will be recognized when management considers realization of such amounts to be more likely than not. As of May31, 2022, the Company has incurred a net loss of approximately $3,121,510 which resulted in a net operating loss for income tax purposes. The loss results in a deferred tax asset of approximately $655,517 at the effective statutory rate of 21%. The deferred tax asset has been offset by an equal valuation allowance. Given our inception on December 1, 2020, and our fiscal year end of February 28, 2022, we have completed only two taxable fiscal years.
Note 5 - Commitments and Contingencies
The Company follows ASC 450-20, Loss Contingencies, to report accounting for contingencies. Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated. There were no commitments or contingencies as of May 31, 2022 other than the following:
On September 17, 2021, our Board of Directors unanimously approved to enter into and consummate an agreement with SRAX, Inc., a Delaware Company (“SRAX”).

In exchange for twelve months of access to the Sequire Platform, we paid SRAX $20,000. Additional fees may be incurred as a result of this agreement, but we cannot accurately determine what they may be, although we believe any such fees would be nominal.

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
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.”
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 effect on our operations and future prospects 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.

Through our dual buy and build model, we evaluate the wellness industry in the following six goals-based categories:
● | Better Health |
● | Better Fitness |
● | Better Nutrition |
● | Better Appearance |
● | Better Sleep |
● | Better Mindfulness |
As an early-stage company, our Company generated $13,087 and $19,455 in revenue for the three months ended May 31, 2022 and 2021 respectively. Our strategy is designed to offer wellness consumers a diverse synergistic portfolio of brands and products that will allow them to live a life of intention and improve their quality of life. On May 26, 2022, our Company closed its first acquisition of the right, title and interest in, including all of the outstanding membership interests of Mango Moi, LLC, a hair and skincare business located in Chicago, Illinois. As a fledgling brand, Mango Moi, LLC lacked capital, access to capital, and other resources necessary to scale and maintain its growth trajectory. We believe that as a result of Mango Moi, LLC’s lack of resources, our Company was presented with an attractive acquisition opportunity and that our Company’s resources would allow Mango Moi, LLC to expand.

We believe wellness consumers purchase with intention and specifically seek out the brands and products that improve their quality of life. Furthermore, we believe wellness consumers pursue these six goals-based dimensions of wellness and are positioning the Company to capitalize on this demand. With skin being a human’s largest organ, we have initially prioritized skincare and haircare to help wellness consumers look and feel better with clean and natural products. We intend to expand into additional wellness categories with functional foods, beverages, supplements, and more.
Our management team brings deep expertise in heavily regulated industries, operating, brand identity, genetics, and services, and raising capital to the public market. We seek synergistic and complementary mergers and acquisition opportunities, implementing operational efficiencies to eliminate duplicative measures and centralize administrative operations to achieve more significant revenues and profitability. Additionally, we expect to leverage our network of retail relationships, as well as acquire and manage brands and services cultivated in the beauty and wellness industry to secure sales in major retailers in the United States and globally.
Our management team monitors a variety of trends and factors that follow, which could impact our operating performance.
As an early-stage company, the Company has relatively few transactions to date.
Trends and Other Factors Affecting Our Operating Performance
Our management team monitors various trends and factors that could impact our operating performance.
Revenue Strategy
Our revenue growth strategy follows a dual buy and build model in which we acquire brands and related infrastructure and develop brands and related infrastructure in-house. In addition to scaling the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Glow Market LLC, which currently owns and operates our Better Suds soap brand, we have executed multiple non-binding letters of intent to acquire companies within the skincare sector, including a vertically-integrated skincare manufacturer and multiple brands. The closing of these respective transactions is dependent on numerous factors, including but not limited to the satisfactory completion of due diligence, capital constraints, and more. Furthermore, any of these contemplated transactions would likely have a material impact on the Company’s operating performance. On May 26, 2022, our Company closed its first acquisition of the right, title and interest in, including all of the outstanding membership interests of Mango Moi, LLC, a hair and skincare business located in Chicago, Illinois.
Market Opportunity
We aim to become a major participant in the $1.5 trillion global wellness industry. We believe our innovative wellness-related offerings converge with wellness consumer trends and demands for “Better-For-You” brands and products that can satisfy all pricing points. We expect consumer trends towards adoption of these healthier lifestyles to continue.
Competition
We will compete with companies that operate in the plant-based and science-focused wellness market. Many of our competitors will have substantially greater financial resources, broader market presence, longer-standing relationships with distributors, retailers, and suppliers, longer operating histories, more extensive production and distribution capabilities, more robust brand recognition, more significant marketing resources, and more comprehensive product lines than us. We believe that principal competitive factors in this category include, among others, quality ingredients, wellness profile, cost, convenience, branding, and marketing.
19
Sales and Marketing Costs
As we continue to grow our “BFYW” product portfolio, we expect to expand our sales and marketing team by adding dedicated personnel to service additional retail customers. Outside sales representatives and brokers may be added to expand our sales efforts. We further envision engaging, developing and possibly acquiring a subscription box retail operation. Marketing expenditures are expected to begin primarily online and in product fees (as we engage retail store expansion), as well as other similar in-store marketing costs. These expenses will be categorized as net deductions to revenue under GAAP instead of marketing expenses. We plan to hire a national marketing firm to implement digital video and display campaigns, connected television, social media, and search engine marketing. As we expand and grow revenue, we will build a brand management team (to support Management, who oversees all “BFYW” marketing efforts) to focus on digital marketing, social media, and other marketing functions.
Operating Costs
Our operating costs include raw materials, labor and related benefits, manufacturing overhead, marketing, sales, distribution, shipping, and other general and administrative expenses. We attempt to manage the impact of our operating costs through fixed hourly rate agreements with legal counsel and certain consultants.
Fluctuations in Costs
Our costs are subject to fluctuations, particularly due to changes in commodity prices, transportation costs, and our productivity efforts. If we are unable to manage cost fluctuations through pricing actions, cost savings projects, sourcing decisions, and consistent productivity improvements, it may adversely impact our gross margin, operating margin, and net earnings. Sales can also be adversely impacted following pricing actions if there is a negative impact on the consumption of our products. We strive to implement, achieve, and sustain cost improvement plans, including supply chain optimization, general overhead and workforce optimization, as well as outsourcing projects as deemed appropriate.
Commodities
In the future, our profitability could depend on our ability to anticipate and react to raw material costs, among other things. Raw materials can be sourced from various parts of the globe, and the prices of raw goods are subject to many factors beyond our control. These factors include variables in world economic conditions, political events, tariffs, trade wars or other events.
Acquisitions
The Company follows a dual buy and build business model for growth through acquisitions and in-house development of brands. We have executed multiple non-binding letters of intent to acquire companies within the skincare sector including a vertically-integrated skincare manufacturer and multiple brands. The closing of these respective transactions is dependent on numerous factors including but not limited to satisfactory completion of due diligence, capital constraints, and more. Furthermore, any of these contemplated transactions would likely have a material impact on the Company’s operating performance.
Strategic Advisory Committee
To assist in the expansion of the Company, management sought and received unanimous consent of the Board of Directors to create and seat a Strategic Advisory Committee composed of respected industry leaders who bring relevant experience, networks, and leadership to the Company’s various initiatives.

Discussion of Financial Statement
As an Early-Stage Company with few transactions, the Company’s expenditures were heavily Selling, General, and Administrative (“SG&A”). The Company engaged Carter, Ledyard, & Milburn LLP and Anthony L.G., PLLC as legal counsel, to be consulted on a case-by-case basis as may be necessary for corporate legal services and securities counsel. Payroll expenses were the single largest category of expenditure of the quarter. Management expects legal costs to taper as a percentage of overall SG&A as the company grows. BF Borgers CPA PC remains the Company’s Auditor to ensure continued financial regulatory compliance. The Company’s SG&A further includes the cost of EDGAR and news release filing services, payroll of a single person, website development and publishing, professional services such as accounting, SRAX for regular updates of NOBO data for the shareholder lists for ongoing shareholder communications, Governmental filing fees including business licensing.
Systems and Controls
As an early-stage company, the Company has very few transactions to date. The Company’s Board of Directors consists of 7 members, 5 of which are non-executive independent directors. The Board of Directors’ reviews transactions, and the CEO signs off on transactions. The Company is developing revenue recognition processes and procedures for the business, including revenue streams, point of performance obligation discharged, etc., to comply with applicable State, Federal, and International Laws and Regulations.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Pursuant to Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, the consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries.
The Company adopted ASC 606 - Revenue from contracts with Customers: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.
Revenue for products is recognized when the products are delivered to the customer and the customer completes the product inspection. Cash receipts for undelivered products are recorded as deferred revenues. As of May 31, 2022, the Company had no deferred revenues.
Going Concern
The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Company demonstrates adverse conditions that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year following the issuance of these financial statements. These adverse conditions are negative financial trends, specifically operating loss, working capital deficiency, and other adverse key financial ratios.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event that the Company cannot continue as a going concern.
21
COVID-19
An outbreak of infectious respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus known as COVID-19 spread globally in 2020. This outbreak resulted in travel restrictions, closed international borders, enhanced health screenings at ports of entry and elsewhere, disruption of and delays in healthcare service preparation and delivery, prolonged quarantines, cancellations, supply chain disruptions, lower consumer demand, layoffs, defaults, and other significant economic impacts, as well as general concern and uncertainty.
The pandemic has not materially impacted our operations in 2021 nor 2022 thus far.
Financial Statements and Exhibits
The Company has been engaged in organizational efforts and obtaining initial financing. The Company was formed as a vehicle to pursue a business combination. The Company’s business purpose is to seek the acquisition of or merger with an existing company.
The Company is an “emerging growth company” (“EGC”), that is exempt from certain financial disclosure and governance requirements for up to five years as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the JOBS Act), that eases restrictions on the sale of securities; and increases the number of shareholders a company must have before becoming subject to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commissions (SEC’s) reporting and disclosure rules (See Emerging Growth Companies Section Below).
The Company has elected February 28th as its fiscal year-end.

Revenues
The company generated $13,087 and $19,455 for the three-months ended May 31, 2022, and 2021 respectively, a decrease of $6,368. The decrease was due to reduced merchandise sales due to a decrease in marketing. The Company’s current business plan is to explore and evaluate various business opportunities in the plant-based food, beverage, and consumer packaged goods (“CPG”) sectors including but not limited to mergers, acquisitions, or business combination transactions.
Cost of Goods Sold
We recorded $10,268 and $7,230 for Cost of Goods Sold for the three-months ended May 31, 2022, and 2021 respectively, an increase of $3,038. The increase in Cost of Goods Sold was due to inventory purchasing.
22
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
We recorded $2,819 and $12,226 in Gross Profit for the three-months ended May 31, 2022, and 2021 respectively, a decrease of $9,407. We recorded a substantially lower Gross Profit for our three-months ended May 31, 2022, compared to the first quarter of the prior year due to a decrease in merchandise sales. The decrease was due to a decrease in merchandise sales due to a decrease in marketing.
Operating Expenses
We recorded $1,334,455 and $93,692 in Operating Expenses for the three-months ended May 31, 2022, and 2021 respectively. We incurred substantially higher Operating Expenses for our three-months ended May 31, 2022, compared to the prior year’s first quarter due to contemplated acquisition transactions, legal fees, due diligence costs, accounting, travel, and consultants. The primary reason for the increase in operating expenses is an increase of approximately $516,407 in share-based expenses, approximately $577,473 in impairment expense, and approximately $240,576 in general and administrative expenses.
Income Taxes
The Company has not recognized an income tax benefit for its operating losses generated based on uncertainties concerning its ability to generate taxable income in future periods. As of May 31, 2022, the Company has incurred a net loss of approximately $3,121,510, resulting in a net operating loss for income tax purposes. The loss results in a deferred tax asset of approximately $655,517 at the effective statutory rate of 21%. The deferred tax asset has been offset by an equal valuation allowance. Given our Company’s inception date of December 1, 2020, and our fiscal year end of February 28, 2022, we have completed only two taxable fiscal years.
Net (Loss) Income
We recorded a loss of $1,373,066 and $81,477 for the three-months ended May 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively. We recorded a substantially higher net loss for our three-months ended May 31, 2022, compared to the first quarter in the prior year due to the factors discussed above.
Cash flow
For the first quarter ending May 31, 2022, and 2021, we had negative cash flows from operating activities in the amount of $404,695 and $30,358, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash balance at May 31, 2022, and 2021 was $2,695 and $2,708, respectively. We received $254,250 and $0 from the sale of shares of Common Stock for the three-months ended May 31, 2022, and 2021 respectively. We presently are largely reliant on capital contributions towards expenses from Mr. Ian James, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer, and Chairman of the Board of Directors. However, we raised a total of $250,680 in net proceeds from Mast Hill, LLC in convertible debt in the three-months ended May 31, 2022.
Mr. Ian James has not guaranteed that he will continue to support our capital needs. Therefore, we may not have the ability to continue as a going concern. In order to implement our plan of operations for the next twelve-month period, we may require further funding. Being a start-up stage company, we have very limited operating history. After a twelve-month period, we may need additional financing but currently do not have any arrangements for such financing.
If we need additional cash and cannot raise it, we will either have to suspend operations until our Company raises the necessary financing or cease operations entirely.

Corporate History
Better For You Wellness, Inc. (“we”, “us”, “our”, the “Company” or the “Registrant”), was originally incorporated with the name Fast Track Solutions, Inc. in the State of Nevada on December 1, 2020.
On January 28, 2021, as a result of an Application for Custodianship granted by the Eighth Judicial District Court, Clark County, Nevada, styled as “In the matter of Sauer Energy, Inc., a Nevada corporation, Case Number: A-20-826848-P”, Jeffrey DeNunzio was appointed Custodian of Sauer Energy, Inc. (the “Predecessor”).
On April 26, 2021, the Company entered into an “Agreement and Plan of Merger”, whereas it agreed to, and subsequently participated in, a Nevada holding company reorganization pursuant to NRS 92A.180, NRS 92A.200, NRS 92A.230, and NRS 92A.250 (“Reorganization”). The constituent corporations in the Reorganization were Sauer Energy, Inc. (“SENY” or “Predecessor”), Fast Track Solutions, Inc. (“Successor”), and Fast Track Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”). Jeffrey DeNunzio was the sole director/officer of each constituent corporation in the Reorganization.
Fast Track Solutions, Inc. issued 1,000 common shares of its common stock to Predecessor, and Merger Sub issued 1,000 shares of its common stock to Fast Track Solutions, Inc. immediately prior to the Reorganization. As such, immediately prior to the merger, Fast Track Solutions, Inc. became a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Sauer Energy, Inc. and Merger Sub became a wholly owned and direct subsidiary of Fast Track Solutions, Inc.
Pursuant to the above, on April 26, 2021, Sauer Energy, Inc. filed Articles of Merger with the Nevada Secretary of State. The merger became effective on May 5, 2021 at 4:00 PM EST (“Effective Time”). At the Effective Time, Predecessor was merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger), and Predecessor became the surviving corporation. Each share of Predecessor common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of Fast Track Solutions, Inc.’s (“Successors”) common stock.
Fast Track Solutions, Inc., as successor issuer to Sauer Energy, Inc., continued to trade in the OTC MarketPlace under the previous ticker symbol “SENY” until trading under the new ticker symbol “FTRK” for the Company began on May 6, 2021. The Company was given a new CUSIP Number by CUSIP Global Services for its common stock of 31188W108.
On May 5, 2021, after the completion of the Reorganization, we canceled all of the stock we held in Sauer Energy, Inc. resulting in Sauer Energy, Inc. as a stand-alone company. Pursuant to the holding company merger agreement and effects of merger, all of the assets and liabilities, if any, remain with Sauer Energy, Inc. after the Reorganization. Jeffrey DeNunzio, the Director of Sauer Energy, Inc., did not discover any assets of Sauer Energy, Inc. from the time he was appointed Director until the completion of the Reorganization and subsequent separation of Sauer Energy, Inc. as a stand-alone company.
On July 19, 2021, Fast Track Solutions entered into a Share Purchase Agreement by and among CRS Consulting, LLC, a Wyoming Limited Liability Company (“CRS”), Green Ohio Ventures, LLC, an Ohio Limited Liability Company (“GOHV”), Ian James, and Stephen Letourneau, pursuant to which, on July 30, 2021, CRS sold 700,000 shares of the Fast Track Solutions’ Series A Preferred Stock and 250,000,000 shares of Common Stock, representing approximately 89.62% voting control of Fast Track Solutions; 350,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were transferred to Ian James, 350,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were transferred to Stephen Letourneau, and 250,000,000 shares of Common Stock were transferred to GOHV. The aforementioned purchasers, collectively, paid consideration of three hundred thirty-five thousand dollars ($335,000). The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Share Purchase Agreement resulted in a change in control of Fast Track Solutions, with Ian James, Stephen Letourneau and GOHV becoming the largest controlling stockholders.
Cumulatively, Ian James and Stephen Letourneau retained a majority of the membership interests (collectively constituting approximately 84.12%) of GOVH.
24
On July 30, 2021, Mr. Jeffrey DeNunzio resigned as the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer. In addition, Mr. DeNunzio resigned as Director on July 30, 2021. Mr. Ian James was also appointed as the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer, and Chairman of the Board of Directors, and Mr. Stephen Letourneau was appointed Director. The resignation of Mr. DeNunzio was not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to its operations, policies, or practices.
On August 18, 2021, a Certificate of Amendment to change our name to “Better For You Wellness, Inc.” was filed with the Nevada Secretary of State.
On August 27, 2021, Montel Williams, Leslie G. Bumgarner, Joseph J. Watson, David H. Deming, and Dr. Nicola R. Finley, MD, were each appointed by our Board of Directors to serve as Independent Directors of the Company.
On September 17, 2021, we entered into “Term Sheet” with Williamsburg Venture Holdings LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“WVH”). WVH is a multi-strategy, private investment fund located in New York. The Term Sheet is a private placement with registration rights, providing WVH the ability to purchase up to $30,500,000 of our Common Stock. The term of the Term Sheet is for 36 months. Following the execution of the term sheet, the Company is to pay WVH $15,000 to cover associated expenses relating to, amongst other things, preparation of future securities agreements relating to the Term Sheet. Upon entering into definitive agreements with WVH for the purchase and sale of equity, WVH is to immediately purchase $250,000 of the Company’s restricted common stock from the Company at a 15% discount to the last closing price of our Common Stock as reported by the OTC Markets Group. Any future proceeds from the sale of shares, pursuant to the aforementioned term sheet, are to go towards the Company to be used for working capital. Pursuant to the Term Sheet, WVH may not acquire, at any point, more than 4.99% of our outstanding shares of common stock.
On September 17, 2021, we entered into an agreement with SRAX, Inc., a Delaware Company (“SRAX”). Pursuant to the agreement with SRAX, the Company will be granted access to a platform developed by SRAX, known as the “Sequire Platform” which, amongst other things, will allow the Company to access trading data. According to SRAX, the platform is an investor intelligence and communications management platform that allows users to “unlock stock buyers’ behaviors and trends for issuers of publicly traded companies”. In exchange for twelve months of access to the Sequire Platform, we paid SRAX $20,000. Additional fees may be incurred as a result of this agreement, but we cannot accurately determine what they may be, although we believe any such fees would be nominal.
On September 17, 2021, we entered into another agreement with SRAX, whereas SRAX will provide advertising and marketing services to the Company on a case-by-case basis, as may be requested by the Company.
On September 17, 2021, Mr. David H. Deming was appointed Secretary of the Company’s Board of Directors.
On September 17, 2021, we engaged Carter Ledyard Milburn LLP as the Company’s legal counsel going forward, to be consulted on a case-by-case basis as may be necessary. Any future legal fees that may be incurred are to be billed hourly and may not be static. We believe legal counsel to be important to the growth of the Company going forward.
On September 30, 2021, we began trading under the symbol BFYW. The new CUSIP number associated with our common stock is 08771B105.
On October 1, 2021, our Board of Directors unanimously approved the establishment of an Audit Committee and appointed Montel Williams, David Deming, and Joseph Watson to the newly formed Audit Committee. Our Board of Directors also unanimously approved the establishment of a Compensation Committee and appointed Leslie Bumgarner, Montel Williams, and Joseph Watson to the newly formed Compensation Committee.
25
On November 18, 2021, Ms. Leslie Bumgarner advised the Company’s Board of Directors that she would resign as a director and Compensation Committee member of the Company effective upon December 31, 2021. The resignation of Ms. Bumgarner was not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to its operations, policies, or practices.
On December 3, 2021, the Company executed an Amended and Corrected Equity Purchase Agreement (the “Equity Purchase Agreement”) with Williamsburg Venture Holdings LLC, a Nevada limited liability Company (“WVH”). The Equity Purchase Agreement provides that WVH shall purchase from the Company, upon the filing of a Current Report on Form 8-K regarding the Company ceasing to be a “shell” company and on the approval of an uplisting to the OTCQB or higher market, $250,000 of the Company’s common stock at a 15% discount to the last closing price of the Company’s Common Stock as reported by the OTC Markets Group. The Equity Purchase Agreement also provides that, upon the filing of a registration statement on Form S-1 covering all the shares sold to WVH under the Equity Purchase Agreement and related Amended and Corrected Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), WVH shall purchase an additional $250,000 of the Company’s Common Stock at a 15% discount to the last closing price of the Company’s Common Stock as reported by the OTC Markets Group.
On December 3, 2021, the Company also executed the Registration Rights Agreement with WVH. Under the terms and conditions of the Registration Rights Agreement, and to induce WVH to enter into the Equity Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to provide certain registration rights under the Securities Act. The Registration Rights agreement provides that the Company shall, on or before the one hundred and eightieth (180th) day after December 3, 2021, file with the SEC a prospectus supplement on effective Form S-1 covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities (as defined therein) as shall be permitted to be included thereon in accordance with applicable SEC rules, regulations and interpretations so as to permit the resale of such Registrable Securities by the WVH, including but not limited to under Rule 415 under the Securities Act at then prevailing market prices (and not fixed prices), as mutually determined by both the Company and the WVH (the “Initial Registration Statement”). The Initial Registration Statement shall register only registrable securities. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Initial Registration Statement, and any amendment thereto declared effective by the SEC at the earliest possible date (in any event, within ninety (90) calendar days after the filing date of the Initial Registration Statement). The Registration Rights Agreement also provides that the Company is obligated to file additional registration statements under certain circumstances.
On December 6, 2021, we announced that the Company had formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Glow Market LLC, an Ohio Limited Liability Company, to build and operate digitally-native, mission-driven brands within the clean beauty sector in multiple consumer product categories. Glow Market LLC, launched its first brand, Better Suds, an impact-driven brand that sells cruelty-free natural soap. Better Suds is committed to positively impacting the environment by removing 1 pound of plastic from the ocean for every soap sold through donations to Ocean Blue Project Inc., a 501(c)(3) organization that removes plastics from oceans and waterways. With the Company’s launch of Glow Market LLC, we ceased to be a shell company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, and are no longer a blank-check company.
On December 9, 2021, we announced that the Company had submitted an application to the OTC Markets Group to up-list its common stock for trading on the OTC Markets Venture Market, or the OTCQB, and pending the completion of the application process and its acceptance by the OTC Markets Group, the Company expects that its common stock will begin trading on the OTCQB under the Company’s current ticker symbol “BFYW”.

On April 12, 2022, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Mast Hill Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, pursuant to which Mast Hill Fund, L.P. purchased a promissory note, with a principal amount of $310,000 for a purchase price of $279,000 bearing an original issue discount of $31,000, interest of 12% per year and a maturity date of April 12, 2023. The promissory note is convertible into shares of our common stock at conversion price of $0.037 per share, subject to adjustment as provided therein. We have the right to prepay the promissory note in full, including accrued but unpaid interest, without prepayment penalty provided an event of default, as defined therein, has not occurred. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, we issued to Mast Hill 4,960,000 commitment shares of the Company’s common stock as a condition to closing. In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with Mast Hill Fund, L.P. pursuant to which we are obligated to file a registration statement within 90 days of the date of the Registration Rights Agreement covering the sale of the commitment shares and the shares of our common stock that may be issued to Mast Hill Fund, L.P. pursuant to the conversion of the promissory note.

ITEM 3 QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to provide the information called for by this Item.
ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer (who is acting as our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principle accounting officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As of May 31, 2022, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of our chief executive officer, with the participation of our chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and the operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. The officers concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report due to material weaknesses identified below.
The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: domination of management by a single individual without adequate compensating controls, lack of a majority of outside directors on board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives, and lack of an audit committee. These material weaknesses were identified by our Chief Executive Officer who also serves as our Chief Financial Officer in connection with the above evaluation.
Inherent limitations on effectiveness of controls
Internal control over financial reporting has inherent limitations which include but is not limited to the use of independent professionals for advice and guidance, interpretation of existing and/or changing rules and principles, segregation of management duties, scale of organization, and personnel factors. Internal control over financial reporting is a process which involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis, however these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process and it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that have occurred for the fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2021, that have materially or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
