CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained or incorporated by reference in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are considered forward-looking statements (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) concerning our business, results of operations, economic performance and/or financial condition, based on managements current expectations, plans, estimates, assumptions and projections. Forward-looking statements are included, for example, in the discussions about:
| ● | strategy; |
| ● | new product discovery and development; |
| ● | current or pending clinical trials; |
| ● | our products’ ability to demonstrate efficacy or an acceptable safety profile; |
| ● | actions by regulatory authorities; |
| ● | product manufacturing, including our arrangements with third-party suppliers; |
| ● | product introduction and sales; |
| ● | royalties and contract revenues; |
| ● | expenses and net income; |
| ● | credit and foreign exchange risk management; |
| ● | liquidity; |
| ● | asset and liability risk management; |
| ● | the outcome of litigation and other proceedings; |
| ● | intellectual property rights and protection; |
| ● | economic factors; |
| ● | competition; and |
| ● | legal risks. |
Any statements contained in this report that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words expects, anticipates, believes, intends, estimates, aims, plans, may, could, will, will continue, seeks, should, predict, potential, outlook, guidance, target, forecast, probable, possible or the negative of such terms and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are subject to change and may be affected by risks and uncertainties, most of which are difficult to predict and are generally beyond our control. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement in light of new information or future events, except as required by law, although we intend to continue to meet our ongoing disclosure obligations under the U.S. securities laws and other applicable laws.
We caution you that a number of important factors could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements, and therefore you should not place too much reliance on them. These factors include, among others, those described herein, under Risk Factors and elsewhere in this Annual Report and in our other public reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. It is not possible to predict or identify all such factors, and therefore the factors that are noted are not intended to be a complete discussion of all potential risks or uncertainties that may affect forward-looking statements. If these or other risks and uncertainties materialize, or if the assumptions underlying any of the forward-looking statements prove incorrect, our actual performance and future actions may be materially different from those expressed in, or implied by, such forward-looking statements. We can offer no assurance that our estimates or expectations will prove accurate or that we will be able to achieve our strategic and operational goals.
Forward-looking statements are based on information we have when those statements are made or managements good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events, and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements.
4
Moreover, new risks regularly emerge and it is not possible for our management to predict or articulate all risks we face, nor can we assess the impact of all risks on our business or the extent to which any risk, or combination of risks, may cause actual results to differ from those contained in any forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements included in this prospectus are based on information available to us on the date of this Annual Report. Except to the extent required by applicable laws or rules, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained above and throughout this Annual Report.
JUMPSTART OUR BUSINESS STARTUPS ACT
We qualify as an emerging growth company as defined in Section 101 of the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act (JOBS Act) as we do not have more than $1,000,000,000 in annual gross revenue and did not have such amount as of December 31, 2017, the last day of our last fiscal year. We are electing to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act.
As an emerging growth company, we are permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are otherwise applicable to public companies. These provisions include, but are not limited to:
| ● | being permitted to present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this annual report; |
| ● | not being requested to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended (“Sarbanes-Oxley Act”); |
| ● | reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports, proxy statements and registration statements; and |
| ● | exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. |
We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest to occur of: (i) our reporting $1 billion or more in annual gross revenues; (ii) the end of fiscal year 2019; (iii) our issuance, in a three year period, of more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt; and (iv) the end of the fiscal year in which the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeded $700 million on the last business day of our second fiscal quarter.

PART I
Item 1. Business
Company Overview
Canbiola, Inc. was originally incorporated as WrapMail, Inc. (WRAP) in Florida on October 11, 2005 in order to tap into a largely un-serviced segment of the web-based advertising industry. Effective December 27, 2010, WRAP effected a 10 for 1 forward stock split of its common stock. Effective June 4, 2013, WRAP effected a 1 for 10 reverse stock split of its common stock. The accompanying consolidated financial statements retroactively reflect these stock splits.
Effective January 5, 2015, WRAP acquired 100% ownership of Prosperity Systems, Inc. (Prosperity), a New York corporation incorporated on April 2, 2008, in order to acquire Prosperitys office productivity software suite as a complement to WRAPs existing intellectual property. After its acquisition, the Company transferred Prosperitys operations to WRAP and is presently in the process of dissolving Prosperity. For the periods presented, the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses are those of the Company. Prosperity had no activity for the periods presented.
Around the first quarter of 2017, the Company began to transition into the Hemp CBD industry and now primarily offers health and beauty products containing CBD. On May 15, 2017, WRAP changed its name to Canbiola, Inc. (the Company or CANB or Canbiola) to reflect its transition.
Business
The Company operates several divisions, including document management and email marketing platforms; however, its primary operations are from the development and sale of products containing CBD. The Companys products contain CBD derived from Hemp and include products such as oils, creams, moisturizers, chews, vapes, isolate, gel caps, concentrate and water. In addition to offering white labeled products, Canbiola is developing its own line of proprietary products, as well as seeking synergistic value through acquisitions in the Hemp industry. Canbiola aims to be the premier provider of the highest quality natural Hemp CBD products on the market through sourcing the very best raw material and developing a variety of products we believe will improve people's lives in a variety of areas.
CBD Business
Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of nearly 85 naturally occurring compounds (cannabinoids) found in industrial hemp and cannabis. CBD is non-psychoactive and is thought to have numerous uses, including, but not limited to, for pain, insomnia, epilepsy, anxiety, inflammation, and nausea. Unlike CBD derived from marijuana, CBD derived from the seeds and stalks of industrial hemp is generally considered legal in the U.S. so long as it contains less than 0.03% of THC, another, but psychoactive, cannabinoid found in cannabis. CBD derived from marijuana, marijuana and other marijuana derivatives are federally illegal in the U.S. under the Controlled Substances Act, despite being medically or recreationally legal in numerous states.
In order to facilitate its operations, the Company has entered into a Production Agreement with Pure Health Products, LLC, a New York limited liability company (PHP). Pursuant to the Production Agreement, PHP will manufacture, package, and sell the Companys CBD infused products on an exclusive basis. PHP will not produce or manufacture any product containing any cannabis or hemp derivative for any person or entity other than the Company, and the Company controls the ingredients, recipe, manufacturing processes and procedures and quality and taste parameters for all Products produced at the PHP facility. PHP may also white label / rebrand or relabel the products on the Companys behalf pursuant to white label agreements entered into between the Company and third-party customers. Through its contractual relationship with PHP, the Company is able to control the manufacturing process of its products while reducing its production costs. In addition, the Company has the option to acquire certain assets of PHP should it elect to take over direct manufacture of its Products.
The Companys products are sold via its website and through doctors and other medical professionals with which the Company enters into distribution agreements.
6
The CBD and cannabis markets are flooded with competition ranging from mom and pop operations to multi-million-dollar conglomerates, many with longer operating histories, more capital and/or more industry knowledge than the Company. The Company hopes to partner with or engage industry specialists to help set it apart from its numerous competitors.
The statements found herein have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Companys products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease or medical condition.
While the Company is seeking additional opportunities to manufacture, market and/or distribute CBD, it continues to operate its Bullseye and WRAPmail divisions and explore ways to grow each, especially in a manner that would be symbiotic with its intended future CBD operation.
WRAPmail
The Company owns a patented technology that combines custom marketing content with organization e-mail to provide a next generation marketing platform for organizations and personal use. WRAPmail provides a branding and advertising solution to organizations allowing employee e-mails to be written on company sanctioned trackable e-mail stationary as opposed to using simple, personal e-mail signatures. In essence, WRAPmail turns every e-mail sent by one of our customers into valuable marketing tool by wrapping the e-mail with the customers letterhead, logo, product offerings, or other information or graphics that the customer wishes to disseminate to the reader.
WRAPmail is a server/cloud‐ based solution. Users create e-mails just as they always have, and do not see the rich content. Users are not required to change their e‐mail address and the administrator can “construct” with or without the help of the WRAPmail Production & Design team different e‐mail letterheads using the included WRAPmaker that allow for including different graphics, links, promotions, surveys and/or audio. The e-mail either makes a stop after leaving the user’s desktop and that “stop” is where the e-mail gets wrapped or users use the available WRAPmail toolbars. Currently, toolbars are available for Google Chrome, Microsoft Internet Explorer, Apple Safari and Firefox for Gmail, Yahoo Mail, AOLMail, Microsoft Hotmail/LIVE, GoDaddy webmail, Keller Williams webmail, Salesforce.com webmail and 24sevenoffice.com webmail. WRAPmail software resides in the cloud or for large clients on their own server inside their Firewall. One WRAPmail server can currently process about 100K emails per hour (as we move to multi‐threading we believe we can increase the speed ten‐fold). WRAPmail has also developed an APP for Android and iPhone where users can send WRAPPED emails from their Gmail, Yahoo Mail, AOL Mail and Microsoft Mail.
We have been only mildly successful in gaining customers for our newest version, WRAPmail 2.0, a paid service with B2B and B2C offerings. This limited success in garnering new clients is despite numerous marketing efforts to the contrary and the Company has yet to find the best avenue for marketing WRAPmail 2.0 to potential clients. The Company continues to explore alternative avenues for generating revenues through its WRAPmail 2.0 product offering and intellectual property.
After substantial research, we are not aware of any competitors developing a similar solution to WRAPmail, possibly giving us first mover advantage. Nonetheless, we may face competition from stationary letterhead, bulk e-mail and similar product providers.

Intellectual Property
We own the following patents for our WRAPmail technology: US patent no. 8572275 issued on October 29, 2013. This patent expires in October 2033. On July 20, 2015, WRAPmail filed for a new patent under the title: Method, System and Software for Dynamically Extracting Content for Integration with Instant Messages, which application is still pending and not being actively pursued by the Company.
Any expiration of our patents or claims could adversely affect our business. However, with regard to the importance and effect of these patents, it is necessary to understand the structure of the Companys intellectual property. Patents have been relied upon to discourage infringement during the research and development stage of the technology. In that sense we believe that the main purpose of the patents has been that they have served to provide the Company a head start against potential competitors. A significant body of unpublished know-how and trade secrets is closely held by the Company in order to mitigate the risk of competition that could arise from other parties reliance merely upon the information contained in the patents. The Company can derive revenue from sub-licensing its know-how without sub-licensing the rights to patents, or it can, as it has the right to do under the agreement, also sublicense the patents as well.
The above patents relate to the document management and email marketing divisions. Due to diminishing revenue it was determined to reduce the fair value of these patents to 0.
Employees
The Company currently has no full-time employee.

Research and Development

Government Regulation
Through its manufacture and distribution of CBD products, the Company will be subject to federal and state regulations relating to cannabis, including the Federal Controlled Substance Act, which classifies marijuana and its derivatives as a Schedule 1 narcotic. These regulations may affect, among others, the way the Company manufactures and distributes its products, the way the Company is taxed, the way the Company banks, the location of the Companys facilities, the content and testing of the Companys products, and the quality of the Companys services.
We are also subject to general business regulations and laws as well as Federal and state regulations and laws specifically governing the Internet and e-commerce. Existing and future laws and regulations may impede the growth of the Internet, e-commerce or other online services, and increase the cost of providing online services. These regulations and laws may cover sweepstakes, taxation, tariffs, user privacy, data protection, pricing, content, copyrights, distribution, electronic contracts and other communications, consumer protection, broadband residential Internet access and the characteristics and quality of services. It is not clear how existing laws governing issues such as property ownership, sales, use and other taxes, libel and personal privacy apply to the Internet and e-commerce. Unfavorable resolution of these issues may harm our business and results of operations.

Canbiola, Inc. was originally formed as a Florida corporation on October 11, 2005, under the name of WrapMail, Inc. Effective January 5, 2015, we acquired 100% ownership of Prosperity Systems, Inc. (Prosperity), a New York corporation incorporated on April 2, 2008. We provide document, project, marketing and sales management systems to business clients through our website and proprietary software and also have a division focusing on the development and sale of products containing CBD. The Company is presently in the process of dissolving Prosperity.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CANB and its wholly owned subsidiary Prosperity from the date of its acquisition on January 5, 2015.
The Company considers Pure Health products to be a variable interest entity as prescribed under Accounting guidelines. Due to the fact that the company is not dependent on Pure Health Products solely for manufacture, no consolidation of Pure Heath Products financial information is required.

Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the SECs rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer (CEO), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on the evaluation, the CEO has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective to ensure that information disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. This determination was based on the small size of our accounting staff, the lack of segregation of duties and the lack of an audit committee.
To address the material weaknesses, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures in an effort to ensure our financial statements included in this annual report have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

Management Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Any internal control system, no matter how well designed, has inherent limitations and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Accordingly, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017 based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this evaluation, because of the Companys limited resources and limited number of employees, and the absence of an audit committee, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2017, our internal control over financial reporting is not effective in providing reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principle, which creates a material weakness. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Companys annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. A material weakness means there is a risk that our financial reports or other filings may contain an error or inaccuracy or not submitted timely.
There was a material weakness in the Companys internal control over financial reporting due to the fact that the Company did not have an adequate process established to ensure appropriate levels of review of accounting and financial reporting matters, which resulted in our closing process not identifying all required adjustments and disclosures in a timely fashion. We expect that the Company will need to hire accounting personnel with the requisite knowledge to improve the levels of review of accounting and financial reporting matters. The Company may experience delays in doing so and any such additional employees would require time and training to learn the Companys business and operating processes and procedures. For the near-term future, until such personnel are in place, this will continue to constitute a material weakness in the Companys internal control over financial reporting that could result in material misstatements in the Companys financial statements not being prevented or detected.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934) during the year ended December 31, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART III
Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance
Our board of directors is elected annually by our shareholders. The board of directors elects our executive officers annually. Our directors and executive officers as of April 3, 2018 are as follows:
Name | Age | Position |
Marco Alfonsi | 57 | CEO, Director, interim Secretary and CFO |
Carl Dilley | 63 | Director |
David Posel | 39 | Chief Operating Officer (COO) |
Marco Alfonsi, CEO and director and interim CFO and Secretary, has been a financial service professional for the past 20 years. Mr. Alfonsi was appointed director and CEO of the Company in or around January, 2015. Immediately prior to that, he spent eight years serving as the CEO of Prosperity Systems, Inc.
Throughout his career, Mr. Alfonsi was directly and indirectly involved in raising over $100 million dollars for small and medium sized business. Prior to his involvement in the financial services industry, Mr. Alfonsi has owned, operated, financed and sold several businesses. Mr. Alfonsi successfully started and managed two companies (ExecuteDirect.com, and Bakers Express of New York, Inc.), and held senior management positions with a number of financial institutions, including: Global American Investments, Clark Street Capital and Basic Investors.
Carl Dilley, director, is a career entrepreneur serving as an officer or director in many different companies and industries. With key roles at Spartan Securities and Island Stock Transfer, Mr. Dilley has been instrumental in taking over 400 companies public. He is currently a managing partner of Connect X Capital Partners, which owns a group of financial services and other companies including: Island Capital Management, LLC, Spartan Securities Group, Ltd., Proxy and Printing LLC., Endeavour Insurance Partners and Pioneer Recycling LLC. He has served as president of Island Stock Transfer, a division of Island Capital Management, LLC from 2003 to present and currently acts as senior executive officer responsible for oversight of the day to day operations. He has also acted as CEO of Vacation Travel Corp, from 2003 to present, president of Hurricane Motorsports, Inc. from 2008 to present, director and COO of Endurance Exploration Group from January, 2014 to present, director of Perpetual Industries, Inc. from March, 2015 to present. Mr. Dilley was elected director of the Company in 2014. It is Mr. Dilleys decades of business experience, including serving as officer and director of numerous public and private entities, several in similar industries as the Company that led to the conclusion that he should serve as our director.
Mr. Dilley has been involved in the investment Industry since 1983, and previously held FINRA series 24, 66, and 7 Securities licenses to perform retail, investment banking and new listing services functions for Spartan, where he served as managing partner until January 2015. He stepped down to assume the role as President of Pioneer Recycling in January 2015. He has taken University level courses in accounting, finance, and statistics and holds a Canadian Finance II designation and fellow of Canadian Securities Institute and completed Part I and II of the CFA (Chartered Financial Analyst program) at University of West Virginia.
David Posel, COO, started his earliest years as a metallurgical engineer at AGCO Metalex, a large precious metals refinery in Washington State. The son of a Ph.D. chemist, Boeing engineer and mathematics major, he quickly went on to the Semiconductor manufacturing industry for nearly a decade as a metallic silicon coatings engineer, leaving to attend ASU West in Arizona. With an engineering and metallurgical chemistry background, Mr. Posel switched gears to Organic agricultural production for an additional eight years. Mr. Posel was farm director and chief environmental scientist for what was once the oldest Organic farm in the state of Colorado before moving into the more advanced world of CBD, hemp production and custom product development.
Mr. Posel has spent years earning the respect of CBD market leaders and forming solid business relationships both in the US and abroad. His legacy began by making the first CBD infused consumer product offered in the US with 99% isolate, 'CrystalPure CBD' which is now sold under our brand. As COO of Canbiola, Mr. Posel continues to engage market leaders and takes the lead in producing multiple first-to-market products for the CBD industry, and pushes product boundaries to expand hemp product lines across the board. Mr. Posel was appointed as COO of the Company on or around February 7, 2018.

Code of Ethics
We have not adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to all of our employees and officers, and the members of our Board of Directors due to the financial constraints of doing so.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Canbiola Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Canbiola Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the (two year) period ended December 31, 2017, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31,2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the (two year) period ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Companys financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of ($2,139,719) during the year ended December 31, 2017, and as of that date, had a and deficit net worth of ($1,729,897). The Company is in arrears on accounts with certain vendor creditors which, among other things, cause the balances to become due on demand. The Company is not aware of any alternate sources of capital to meet such demands, if made.
As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company's significant operating losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to that matter.

Canbiola, Inc. and Subsidiary
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Years Ended December 31, 2017 and 2016
NOTE 1 Organization and Description of Business
Canbiola, Inc. was originally incorporated as WrapMail, Inc. (WRAP) in Florida on October 11, 2005. Effective January 5, 2015, WRAP acquired 100% ownership of Prosperity Systems, Inc. (Prosperity), a New York corporation incorporated on April 2, 2008. On May 15, 2017, WRAP changed its name to Canbiola, Inc. (the Company or CANB or Canbiola). The Company operates several divisions, including document management and email marketing platforms and a division specializing in the sale of products containing CBD. The Company used to operate its document and information platform from its wholly owned subsidiary, Prosperity Systems, Inc; however, after the acquisition of Prosperity, the Company transferred Prosperitys operations to WRAP and is presently in the process of dissolving Prosperity. For the periods presented, the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses are those of CANB. Prosperity had no activity for the periods presented.
Effective December 27, 2010, WRAP effected a 10 for 1 forward stock split of its common stock. Effective June 4, 2013, WRAP effected a 1 for 10 reverse stock split of its common stock. The accompanying consolidated financial statements retroactively reflect these stock splits.
Canbiola, Inc. is a US Company specializing in the sale of a variety of Cannabidiol (Hemp) based products such as oils, creams, moisturizers, chews, vapes, isolate, gel caps, concentrate and water. Canbiola is developing their own line of proprietary products as well as seeking synergistic value through acquisitions in the Hemp Industry. Canbiola aims to be the premier provider of the highest quality Hemp natural products on the market through sourcing the very best raw material and developing a variety of products we believe will improve people's lives in a variety of areas.
CANB expects to concentrate its future business activities on the sale of Cannabidiol based.
NOTE 2 Going Concern Uncertainty
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in a normal course of business. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,652 and a working capital deficit of $1,791,732. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company had net losses of $2,139,719 and $665,050, respectively. These factors raise substantial doubt as to the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The Company plans to improve its financial condition by raising capital through sales of shares of its common stock. Also, the Company plans to expand its operation of CBD products to increase its profitability. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CANB and its wholly owned subsidiary Prosperity from the date of its acquisition on January 5, 2015. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Company considers Pure Health products to be a variable interest entity as prescribed under Accounting guidelines. Due to the fact that the company is not dependent on Pure Health Products solely for manufacture, no consolidation of Pure Heath Products financial information is required.
F-9
(b) Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted 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 dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(c) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Companys financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, notes and loans payable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses payable. Except for the noncurrent note receivable, the fair value of these financial instruments approximate their carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets due to the short term maturity of these instruments. Based on comparable instruments with similar terms, the fair value of the noncurrent note receivable approximates its carrying value.
Pursuant to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, an entity is required 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 instruments 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 - applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
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 - 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.
(d) Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all liquid investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
(e) Inventory
All inventories are finished goods, and stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is principally determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.
(f) Property and Equipment, Net
Property and equipment, net, is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.
(g) Intangible Assets, Net
Intangible assets, net, are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated economic lives of the respective assets.
F-10
(h) Goodwill and Intangible Assets with Indefinite Lives
The Company does not amortize goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, but instead tests for impairment at least annually. When conducting the annual impairment test for goodwill, the Company compares the estimated fair value of a reporting unit containing goodwill to its carrying value. If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is determined to be less than its carrying value, goodwill is reduced, and an impairment loss is recorded.
(i) Long-lived Assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets held and used, intangible assets with finite useful lives and assets held for sale for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If an evaluation of recoverability is required, the estimated undiscounted future cash flows associated with the asset is compared to the assets carrying amount to determine if a write-down is required. If the undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying amount, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the fair value.
(j) Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes service revenue over agreed periods of services delivered to customers and recognizes product sales upon shipment of the ordered products to customers, provided there are no uncertainties regarding customer acceptance, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; the sales price is fixed or determinable; and collectability is deemed probable.
(k) Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 718, Compensation Stock Compensation (ASC718) and ASC 505-50, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees.
In addition to requiring supplemental disclosures, ASC 718 addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which a company receives goods or services in exchange for (a) equity instruments of the company or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the companys equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. ASC 718 focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which a company obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions.
In accordance with ASC 505-50, the Company determines the fair value of the stock based payment as either the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. If the fair value of the equity instruments issued is used, it is measured using the stock price and other measurement assumptions as of the earlier of either (1) the date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instrument is reached, or (2) the date at which the counterpartys performance is complete.
F-11
Options and warrants
The fair value of stock options and warrants is estimated on the measurement date using the Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions, which are determined at the beginning of each year and utilized in all calculations for that year:
Risk-Free Interest Rate.
We utilized the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant with a term consistent with the expected term of our awards.
Expected Volatility.
We calculate the expected volatility based on a volatility index of peer companies as we did not have sufficient historical market information to estimate the volatility of our own stock.
Dividend Yield.
We have not declared a dividend on its common stock since its inception and have no intentions of declaring a dividend in the foreseeable future and therefore used a dividend yield of zero.
Expected Term.
The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options are expected to be outstanding. We estimated the expected term of stock options by using the simplified method. For warrants, the expected term represents the actual term of the warrant.
Forfeitures.
Estimates of option forfeitures are based on our experience. We will adjust our estimate of forfeitures over the requisite service period based on the extent to which actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from such estimates. Changes in estimated forfeitures will be recognized through a cumulative catch-up adjustment in the period of change and will also impact the amount of compensation expense to be recognized in future periods.
(l) Advertising
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and amounted to $28,322 and $11,901 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.
(m) Research and Development
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
(n) Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the assets and liability method. Current income taxes are provided in accordance with the laws of the respective taxing authorities. Deferred income taxes are provided for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is not more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized.
F-12
The Company has adopted the provisions required by the Income Taxes topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The Codification Topic requires the recognition of potential liabilities as a result of managements acceptance of potentially uncertain positions for income tax treatment on a more-likely-than-not probability of an assessment upon examination by a respective taxing authority. The Company believes that it has not taken any uncertain tax positions and thus has not recorded any liability.
(o) Net Income (Loss) per Common Share
Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive securities (such as stock options and convertible securities) outstanding. Dilutive securities having an anti-dilutive effect on diluted net income (loss) per share are excluded from the calculation. For the periods presented, the diluted net loss per share calculation excluded the effect of Series B preferred stocks and stock options outstanding (see Notes 7, 8 and 10).
(p) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Certain accounting pronouncements have been issued by the FASB and other standard setting organizations which are not yet effective and therefore have not yet been adopted by the Company. These include:
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (Topic 606) which establishes revenue recognition standards. ASU 2014-19 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The update establishes management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern including related disclosures.
In 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-2 (Topic 842) which establishes a new lease accounting model for lessees. Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize right of use assets and liabilities for most leases having terms of 12 months or more. ASU 2016-2 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018.
The impact on the Company's financial statements has not yet been determined.
(q) Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the prior year consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassification adjustments had no effect on the Company's previously reported net income.

The above convertible notes contain a variable conversion feature based on the future trading price of the Company common stock. Therefore, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes is indeterminate. Accordingly, we have recorded the fair value of the embedded conversion features as a derivative liability at the respective issuance dates (or amendment dates) of the notes ($445,112 and $629,828 total for the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016) and charged the applicable amounts to debt discounts ($182,750 and $154,250 total for the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016) and the remainder to other expense ($262,362 and $475,578 total for the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016). The increase (decrease) in the fair value of the derivative liability from the respective issuance dates (or amendment dates) of the notes to the measurement date ($926,819 total increase and $277,140 total decrease for the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016) are charged (credited) to other expense (income). The fair value of the derivative liability of the notes is measured at the respective issuance dates and quarterly thereafter using the Black Scholes option pricing model. Assumptions used for the calculations of the derivative liability of the notes at December 31, 2017 include (1) stock price of $0.0335 per share, (2) exercise price of $0.0045 per share, (3) terms ranging from 0 days to 220 days, (4) expected volatility of 287% and (5) risk free interest rates ranging from 0.00% to 1.58%. Assumptions used for the calculations of the derivative liability of the notes at December 31, 2016 include (1) stock price of $0.029 per share, (2) exercise price of $0.01 per share, (3) terms ranging from 32 days to 242 days, (4) expected volatility of 243% and (5) risk free interest rates ranging from 0.46% to 0.65%.

Based on management's present assessment, the Company has not yet determined it to be more likely than not that a deferred income tax asset of $1,394,358 attributable to the future utilization of the $3,973,302 net operating loss carryforward as of December 31, 2017 will be realized. Accordingly, the Company has maintained a 100% allowance against the deferred income tax asset in the financial statements at December 31, 2017. The Company will continue to review this valuation allowance and make adjustments as appropriate. The net operating loss carryforward expires in years 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030, 2031, 2032, 2033, 2034, 2035, 2036 and 2037 in the amount of $1,369, $518,390, $594,905, $686,775, $159,141, $151,874, $135,096, $166,911, $311,890, $25,511, $338,345, $386,297 and $496,798 respectively.
Current tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited.
F-21
The Companys U.S. Federal and state income tax returns prior to 2013 are closed and management continually evaluates expiring statutes of limitations, audits, proposed settlements, changes in tax law and new authoritative rulings. The statute of limitations on the 2013 tax year returns expired in March 2017.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as part of the income tax provision and would include accrued interest and penalties with the related tax liability in the consolidated balance sheets. There were no interest or penalties paid during 2017 and 2016.
