Period ended April 30, 2019

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business

Pivot Pharmaceuticals Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in British Columbia under the Business Corporations Act on June 10, 2002. On April 7, 2015, the Company changed its name from Neurokine Pharmaceuticals Inc. to Pivot Pharmaceuticals Inc. The Company is in the business of developing and commercializing therapeutic pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals, as well as drug delivery platform technologies.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As at April 30, 2019, the Company has not earned any revenue, has a working capital deficit of $5,122,989 and an accumulated deficit of $36,855,262. The continued operations of the Company are dependent on its ability to generate future cash flows or obtain additional financing. The Company will continue to seek financing, in the form of equity or debt, to mitigate the substantial doubt over going concern and continue to meet its obligations.

2.	Significant Accounting Policies

	(a)	Basis of Presentation

		The interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes of the Company are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and are expressed in Canadian dollars. The Company’s fiscal year-end is January 31.

(b)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States 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 interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the useful life and recoverability of long-lived assets and assumptions used to determine the fair values of stock-based compensation, warrants and warrants issued with shares units. Estimates and assumptions have also been made on the recoverable amount of intangible assets, fair value of debentures for the purpose of evaluating modification versus extinguishments, fair value of convertible debentures and deferred income tax asset. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

2.	Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

	(c)	Interim Financial Statements

		These interim unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods shown. The condensed consolidated results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full year or for any future period. Certain disclosures and financial information have been condensed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K (the "2019 Form 10-K") for the year ended January 31, 2019, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on May 3, 2019.

	(d)	Basis of Consolidation

		The interim condensed consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company. Control is achieved where the Company has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. The consolidating entities include:

	% of ownership			Jurisdiction

Pivot Pharmaceuticals Inc.	Parent			Canada
Pivot Green Stream Health Solutions Inc.		100	%	Canada
Pivot Naturals, LLC		100	%	U.S.A.
Thrudermic, LLC		100	%	U.S.A.

	(e)	Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measures

		ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3: Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

2.	Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

		The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to related parties, convertible debenture, promissory note and acquisition obligation. Pursuant to ASC 820, the fair value of cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.

(f)

Loss Per Share

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

During the period ended April 30, 2019, the Company has excluded 13,681,426 (January 31, 2019 – 3,249,700) potential dilutive shares. For the three month periods ended April 30, 2019 and 2018, diluted loss per share is equivalent to basic loss per share because the potential exercise of the equity-based financial instruments was anti-dilutive.

(g)

Adoption of new accounting principles

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASC 842 which requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for virtually all leases. On February 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842 and all related amendments using the modified retrospective transition approach. Refer to Note 3.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. These amendments expand the scope of Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation (which currently only includes share-based payments to employees) to include share-based payments issued to nonemployees for goods or services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees and employees will be substantially aligned. On February 1, 2019, the Company has adopted the methodologies prescribed by this ASU and there is no material impact on the Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

Notes to the Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Period ended April 30, 2019

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

2.	Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

		In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11“Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features; (Part II) Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception” (“ASU 2017-11”). ASU 2017-11 allows companies to exclude a down round feature when determining whether a financial instrument (or embedded conversion feature) is considered indexed to the entity’s own stock. As a result, financial instruments (or embedded conversion features) with down round features may no longer be required to be accounted for as derivative liabilities. A company will recognize the value of a down round feature only when it is triggered, and the strike price has been adjusted downward. For equity-classified freestanding financial instruments, an entity will treat the value of the effect of the down round as a dividend and a reduction of income available to common stockholders in computing basic earnings per share. For convertible instruments with embedded conversion features containing down round provisions, entities will recognize the value of the down round as a beneficial conversion discount to be amortized to earnings. On February 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2017-11 with no material impact on the Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

	(h)	Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

		In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which modifies certain disclosure requirements related to fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 will be effective for us beginning February 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect this guidance to have an impact on the amounts reported on our consolidated financial statements, and the Company is currently evaluating the potential impact this guidance will have on the disclosures within the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

3.	Adoption of ASC 842, Leases

	On February 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842 using the modified retrospective transition approach, which applies the provisions of the new guidance at the effective date without adjusting the comparative periods presented. The cumulative effect of adoption of the lease standard result in change on retained earnings as of February 1, 2019 of $17,802. Results for reporting periods beginning after February 1, 2019 are presented under ASC 842 while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company’s historic accounting under ASC 840, “Leases”. In accordance with ASC 842, the Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception based on whether there is an identified asset, whether the Company has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset and whether the Company has the right to direct the use of the asset. The Company has operating leases, on office and facility spaces, and no financing leases. Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. See Note 7 for further disclosures and detail regarding the Company’s operating leases.

Period ended April 30, 2019

(Expressed in Canadian dollars)

Adoption of ASC 842, Leases (continued)

For leases with terms greater than twelve (12) months, the Company records the related ROU asset and lease obligation at the present value of lease payments over the term. Leases may include fixed rental escalation clauses, renewal options and / or termination options that are factored into the determination of lease payments when appropriate. The Company’s leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate; therefore, an estimate of the Company’s incremental borrowing rate is used to discount the lease payments based on information available at the lease commencement date. The discount rate used was 14.4%.

Operating lease costs during the three months ended April 30, 2019 were $136,123 (Note 7).

The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in the recognition of right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities of approximately $1,162,218 and $1,180,020, respectively, as of February 1, 2019.

Update to Lease Policy

Accounting and reporting guidance for leases requires that leases be evaluated and classified as either operating or finance leases by the lessee and as either operating, sales-type or direct financing leases by the lessor. The Company’s operating leases are included in ROU assets, lease liabilities - current and lease liability in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.

4.	Asset Acquisitions

(a)

Thrudermic Transdermal Nanotechnology

On March 2, 2018, the Company entered into an exchange agreement with Thrudermic, LLC (“Thrudermic”) and the members of Thrudermic whereby the Company paid $1.00 for the issued and outstanding units of Thrudermic and issued 500,000 shares of common stock to the members of Thrudermic for their intellectual property portfolio, including unpatented technology, goodwill and know-how in connection with the Thrudermic Transdermal Nanotechnology.

The Company evaluated this acquisition in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations to discern whether the assets and operations of Thrudermic met the definition of a business. The Company concluded there were not a sufficient number of key processes obtained to develop the inputs into outputs, nor could such processes be easily obtained by the Company. Accordingly, the Company accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition at cost of $830,000 (Note 6).

(b)

Ready-to-Infuse Cannabis Patents (“RTIC Patents”)

On February 28, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of Pivot Naturals, LLC (previously ERS Holdings, LLC) (“Pivot Naturals”) pursuant to an exchange agreement dated as of February 10, 2018. As consideration for the purchase, the Company paid $430,420 (US$333,333) in cash on closing, issued 5,000,000 shares of common stock and will pay an additional $430,420 (US$333,333) six (6) and twelve (12) months after closing. Financial consideration include royalties on future annual net sales. On September 28, 2018, a payment of $429,370 (US$326,666), representing a portion of the payment due six (6) months after closing, was made. The Company extended the payment date for the payment due twelve (12) months after closing from February 28, 2019 to May 31, 2019. As consideration for the extension, the Company issued 60,515 shares of common stock (Note 10(c)) and paid $3,358 (US$2,500) in cash, representing the extension fee for March and April 2019, during the three months ended April 30, 2019. The acquisition obligation outstanding as at April 30, 2019 is $456,382 (US$340,000). On May 17, 2019, the last payment due twelve (12) months after closing was made.

The Company evaluated this acquisition in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations (10-55-4) to discern whether the assets and operations of Pivot Naturals met the definition of a business. The Company concluded there were not a sufficient number of key processes obtained to develop the inputs into outputs, nor could such processes be easily obtained by the Company. Accordingly, the Company accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition.

For the three months ended April 30, 2019, our net loss decreased by $230,753. Net loss decreased primarily from decreases in due diligence costs, general and administrative, professional fees and research and development, offset by increases amortization, licensing fees, rent and salaries and wages. During the three months ended April 30, 2018, we completed the acquisitions of the Thrudermic Transdermal Nanotechnology and Pivot Naturals, LLC (formerly ERS Holdings, LLC) and its RTIC patents, which increased due diligence costs, consulting fees within general and administrative costs, professional fees and research and development. Research and development work performed during the three months ended April 30, 2018 included development of CBD topical and oral formulations, including permeability studies. During the three months ended April 30, 2019, we conducted animal dermal studies using CBD formulations developed.

Increases in expenses during the three months ended April 30, 2019 were due to the following. For the 2019 quarter, we paid licensing fees to Formulex pursuant to a licensing agreement on the Solumer technology entered into in August 2018. We also made lease payments on our facilities in Quebec, Canada and California, USA, both of which were entered into in July 2018. Salaries and wages increased by $264,542 for the three months ended April 30, 2019. For the three months ended April 30, 2018, salaries paid on employment contracts entered into pursuant to the acquisitions of Thrudermic and RTIC patents began in March 2018 and were not paid for the full interim period. Salaries and wages were higher for the three months ended April 30, 2019 due to the following: 1) We paid salaries to two (2) additional administrative staff in Pivot Naturals, who were hired in June 2018, and 2) Pursuant to the termination of three (3) employees in Pivot Naturals, California wage penalties of approximately $56,100 were incurred.

We have not earned any revenues since our inception. We anticipate earning revenues from sales of micellized CBD Solutions beginning the second or third quarter of fiscal 2020.

Liquidity and Financial Condition

Working Capital

	At			At
	April 30,			January 31,
	2019			2019
Current Assets	$	193,847		$	241,874
Current Liabilities	$	5,316,836		$	5,086,227
Working Capital (Deficit)	$	(5,122,989	)	$	(4,844,353	)

Our total current assets as of April 30, 2019 were $193,847 as compared to $241,874 as of January 31, 2019. We received gross proceeds of $1,250,000 from issuance of units, consisting of a common stock and a share purchase warrant, and $300,000 from a promissory note. These proceeds were used to repay $750,000 of our outstanding convertible debentures, as well as extend the remaining maturity of the convertible debentures to June 2, 2019 for an extension fee of $250,000. The remainder of the proceeds, plus cash on hand from January 31, 2019, were used to fund key working capital requirements, resulting in an overall decrease in cash. Current liabilities increased from January 31, 2019 due primarily to the issuance of a promissory note totaling $300,000, recording of a current lease liability of $249,082 pursuant to the adoption of a new accounting standard, ASC 872 Leases, and continuing accruals from services provided by our service providers during the quarter. This increase was offset by the repayment of $750,000 of our convertible debentures.

Operating Activities

During the three months ended April 30, 2019, our cash used by operating activities decreased by $1,851,404 when compared to cash used in operating activities during the three months ended April 30, 2019. During the prior period, proceeds from convertible debentures issued during the period allowed our company to pursue our business strategy, including development of our oral and transdermal drug delivery platforms and preparation of our RTIC products for production and commercialization, which resulted in increased research and development costs and salaries and wages. Also, during prior period, we acquired Pivot Naturals and the Thrudermic Transdermal Nanotechnology, which resulted in increase in other operating activities, such as due diligence, general and administrative, professional services.

Table of Contents

Investing Activities

During the three months ended April 30, 2018, we acquired Pivot Naturals through the issuance of 5,000,000 shares of our common stock and a payment of $428,438 (US$333,333). We did not have any investing activities during the three months ended April 30, 2019.

Financing Activities

During the three months ended April 30, 2019, our cash provided by financing activities decreased by $4,150,745. During the three months ended April 30, 2019, we received net proceeds of $1,250,000 from issuance of units, consisting of common stock and share purchase warrant, and $276,000 from a promissory note. We also repaid $750,000 of our convertible debentures and paid $250,000 for extension of the maturity of the convertible debentures. During the three months ended April 30, 2018, we received net proceeds of $4,939,975 from convertible debentures and $502,464 from promissory note. We repaid loan payable and promissory notes totaling $15,925 and $749,769, respectively.

We have estimated our expenses and working capital requirements for the next 12 months to be as follows:

	Estimated Expenses
Product manufacture	$	4,990,000
U.S. facility capital expenditures		2,000,000
Patent maintenance		455,000
Regulatory		250,000
Sales and marketing		400,000
General and administrative		4,155,000
Total:	$	12,250,000

In May 2019, we closed on non-brokered private placements totaling $15 million, a portion of which were used to settle $2.5 million of our convertible debentures and outstanding obligations. The remainder of the proceeds will fund our estimated expenses and working capital requirements for the next 12 months.

Although we are anticipating commercialization to commence on some of our product initiatives over the next 12 months, anticipated revenues may not be initially sufficient to finance our business plan. In addition, if our estimated expenses and working capital requirements for the next 12 months are higher than estimated, additional funds will also be required to fund our business plans. If required, we intend to raise capital through equity and, if necessary, debt financing. We anticipate that the bulk of any additional funding we receive will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock. In the absence of such financing, we will not be able to carry out our planned development activities. There is no assurance that we will be able to maintain operations at a level sufficient for an investor to obtain a return on his investment in our common stock.

Any modifications to our plans will be based on many factors, including the amount of available capital. Further, the extent to which we carry out our development of planned products is dependent upon the amount of financing available to us.

Future Financings

We may require additional financing in order to enable us to proceed with our plan of operations, as discussed above,

Table of Contents

We anticipate revenues on some of our product initiatives to commence over the next 12 months, beginning with sales of micellized CBD Solutions in the European Union, where regulations permit. Should anticipated revenues be less than estimated, we will need to rely on equity sales of our common stock in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing stockholders. 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 planned business activities.

Except as disclosed above regarding the closing of non-brokered private placements totaling $15 million, we presently do not have any arrangements for additional financing for the expansion of our operations, and no potential lines of credit or sources of financing are currently available for the purpose of proceeding with our plan of operations.

Inflation

The amounts presented in the consolidated condensed financial statements do not provide for the effect of inflation on our operations or financial position. The net operating losses shown would be greater than reported if the effects of inflation were reflected either by charging operations with amounts that represent replacement costs or by using other inflation adjustments.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

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

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparing consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our consolidated financial statements is critical to an understanding of our consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Table of Contents

Foreign Currency Translation

The functional currency of the parent entity, Pivot Pharmaceuticals Inc., and the wholly-owned subsidiaries, Pivot Green Stream Health Solutions Inc. and Thrudermic, LLC, is the Canadian dollar. The functional currency of the wholly-owned subsidiary, Pivot Naturals, LLC, is the US dollar.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the rates of exchange in place at the balance sheet date. Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency during the year are converted into the functional currency at the applicable rates of exchange prevailing when the transactions occurred. Transaction gains and losses are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

Assets and liabilities of the companies are translated from their respective functional currencies to the reporting currency at the exchange rates at the balance sheet dates, equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates and revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates in effect during the reporting period. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustment are recorded in other comprehensive loss.

Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measures

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Our financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to related parties, convertible debentures, promissory note and acquisition obligation. Pursuant to ASC 820, the fair value of our cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.

Equipment

Equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method to depreciate the cost of equipment over its estimated useful life of six years. In accordance with ASC 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”, our company tests long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life. Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value, which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisal in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.

Table of Contents

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consists of costs incurred to acquire license, patents and unpatented technology. Intangible assets are considered finite live assets and recorded at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment. Subsequent expenditures are capitalized only when they increase the future economic benefits embodied in the asset. Amortization is recorded using the straight-line method and is intended to amortize the intangible assets over their estimated useful lives:

License	5 years
Patents	10 years
Unpatented technology	10 years

Impairment of Intangible Assets

When facts and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of definite-lived intangible assets may not be recoverable, management assesses the recoverability of the carrying value by preparing estimates of sales and the resulting profit and cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset or asset group and its eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than the carrying amount, we recognize an impairment loss. The impairment loss recognized is the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset or asset group exceeds the fair value. We use a variety of valuation methodologies to determine the fair value of these assets, including discounted cash flow models.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock-Based Compensation to determine the fair value of share options and account for stock-based compensation expenses using an estimated forfeiture rate at the time of grant and revising the rate, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from initial estimates. Stock-based compensation expenses are recorded net of estimated forfeitures such that expenses are recorded only for those share-based awards that are expected to vest. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

Income Taxes

Our company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Our company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized. As of April 30, 2019 and January 31, 2019, our company did not have any amounts recorded pertaining to uncertain tax positions.

Our company files federal and provincial income tax returns in Canada. Our company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in tax expense. During the three months ended April 30, 2019 and 2018, there were no charges for interest or penalties.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Our 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 accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

A demand for arbitration has been made by these former employees along with a draft arbitration complaint that alleges claims for breach of the written employment contracts, fraud, illegal retaliation and tortious discharge in violation of public policy seeking, among other things, recovery of accrued and unpaid salary and wages in the total amount of US$213,179 and contractual severance amounts totaling US$475,000 alleged to be due and owing on their alleged involuntary termination, as well as other general and punitive damages. The Company intends to vigorously defend these claims and file cross-claims against the former employees for breach of contract and related tort claims. In June 2019, the Company paid all accrued and unpaid salary and wages to these former employees. The Company has not accrued contractual severance amounts totaling US$475,000 as of April 30, 2019 as management is not able to assess the likelihood of payment.

Additionally, the Company has filed suit in British Columbia against the former President and former Director of Pivot Naturals for declaratory relief and related matters concerning control and use of Pivot Assets.

Other than the claims and suits described above, there are no material, existing or pending legal proceedings against our company, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial stockholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.
