ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Plan of Operations

 

Our strategy is to identify companies in industries that compliments the expertise of our management team, Board of Directors, and partners. Our management’s track record provides a highly attractive opportunity for prospective targets looking for proven value, liquidity, and capital procurement.

 

The Company is focused on becoming a global acquisitions-based company targeting high tech industries, and financial services.

 

The Company’s current plan of operations for the twelve months ending April 30, 2020, involved the continued development of the business plan.

 

Our ability to implement the phases of our business plan was dependent on us obtaining the significant financing for these projects, which we were unable to secure during the year ending April 30, 2020.

Results from Operations – For the years ended April 30, 2019, as compared to April 30, 2020 .

 

Operating results for the years ended April 30, 2019, and 2020 are summarized as follows:

 

   Years Ended April 30,
   2019  2020
Revenue  $—     $—   
Operating expenses   120,031    205,411 
Other income (expense)   —      615,000 
Net operating gain (loss)  $(120,031)  $(409,589)

 

Our net operating loss increased $85,380 for our year ended April 30, 2020, from our year ended April 30, 2019. During the year ended April 30, 2020, our operating expenses increased $85,380 from the year ended April 30, 2019. The increase in expenses was mainly comprised of increase in professional fees. The other income for the year ended April 30, 2020 was due to cancellation of consulting agreements.

 

We recorded net income of $409,589 for the year ended April 30, 2020, as compared with a net loss of $120,031 for the year ended April 30, 2019.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of April 30, 2020, we had cash of $858 and our working capital deficit was $332,211. In 2020, we generated revenues of $0 and a net loss of $205,411 from operations as compared to 2019 revenues of $0 and a net operating expense of $120,031.

 

The Company expects significant capital expenditures during the next 12 months, contingent upon raising additional capital. We anticipate that we will need a minimum of $2,000,000 for operations for the next 12 months.

 

The source of such capital is uncertain, and there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining such capital on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. We have a working capital deficit and will need cash infusions from investors and/or current shareholders to deploy our current business plan and joint venture.

 

To implement our business plan, we will need to continue to raise working capital in the form of equity in an amount up to $2,000,000 over the twelve-month period ending April 30, 2020, on terms and conditions to be determined. If we were unable to raise any funds from the sale of equity, management may elect to seek subsequent interim or “bridge” financing in the form of debt as may be necessary.

 

At this time, management is unable to determine the specific amounts and terms of such future financings, or whether or not we will be successful in raising such funds on a basis acceptable to us.


In order to finance the operations of the Company during the twelve months ending April 30, 2019, and 2020, the Company’s management and/or shareholders entered a series of note transactions or accounts payable totaling $1,250 and $5,050, respectively.

 

Cash Flow

  

Years Ended

April 30,

   2019  2020
Net cash provided (used) in operating activities  $(31)  $(5,411)
Net cash used in investing   —      —   
Net cash provided (used) by financing activities   5,050    1,250 
Net increase (decrease) in cash  $5,019   $(4,161)

 

Cash used in operating activities for years ended April 30, 2019, and 2020 as primarily for expenses related to general operations and for Company incurred administrative expenses.

Going Concern

 

Management believes that our current financial condition, liquidity, and capital resources will not satisfy our cash requirements for the next twelve months to deploy our current business plan, and as such we will need to either raise additional proceeds through financing facilities, sales of securities and our officers and directors will need to make additional financial commitments to our Company, neither of which is guaranteed. We plan to satisfy our future cash requirements, primarily the working capital required to execute on our current business and fund our necessary operating expenses, through financial commitments from future debt facilities and equity sales, if and when possible.

 

We do not have any revenues or current operations to secure any revenues. Our ability to survive is dependent upon outside capital, and we have not located any suitable forms of financing for our company for the long term. We had no committed source for funds as of April 30, 2020, other than our convertible debt instruments. No representation is made that any funds will be available when needed. In the event that funds cannot be raised when needed, we may not be able to carry out our business plan, may never achieve revenue, and could fail to satisfy our future cash requirements as a result of these uncertainties.

 

It will be necessary to raise working capital funds through equity and debt financing facilities, which are extremely difficult for a developmental stage company to secure and may not be available to us or on a basis favorable to us. However, if such debt financing is available, we would likely have to pay additional costs associated with high-risk loans and be subject to above market interest rates.

 

The Company and has accumulated a deficit of $46,406,354 at, April 30, 2020. We currently have negative working capital. The amount of capital required to sustain operations is subject to future events and uncertainties, but the Company anticipates it will need to obtain approximately $2,000,000 in additional working capital in the form of debt and/or equity in order to cover our current expenses over the next 12 months in furtherance of our business plan. Whether such capital will be obtainable or obtainable on commercially reasonable terms is at this date uncertain. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require us to make estimates and judgments that significantly affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Note 3, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements for the year ended April 30, 2020, describes our significant accounting policies which are reviewed by management on a regular basis. 

 

Capital Expenditures

 

We have not incurred any material capital expenditures.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources and would be considered material to investors.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Shareholders and

Board of Directors of Crown Baus Capital Corp.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Crown Baus Capital Corp. (the “Company”) as of April 30, 2020 and 2019, the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended April 30, 2020, 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 April 30, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended April 30, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Substantial Doubt About the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company’s continuing operating losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements. Management’s plans are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis of Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. 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 U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). 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 fraud or error. 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 audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audit 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 audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

       CROWN BAUS CAPITAL CORP. 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Crown Baus Capital Corp. (“We” or the “Company”) was incorporated pursuant to the laws of the State of Nevada on August 8, 2011, as Flow Tech Solutions, Inc. We changed our name to World Stevia Corp. on August 15, 2013, then to Cannabis Capital Corp. on March 3, 2014, and finally to Crown Baus Capital Corp. on May 27, 2014.

 

Overview of Business and Operations

 

The Company’s mission is to work together with our shareholders’, investors, and communities to create long-term value.

 

Our strategy is to identify companies in industries that compliments the expertise of our management team, Board of Directors, and partners. Our management’s track record provides a highly attractive opportunity for prospective targets looking for proven value, liquidity, and capital procurement.

 

The Company is focused on becoming a global acquisitions-based company targeting high tech industries, and financial services.

 

The Company has negotiated with several targets, but none have accomplished the desired goals and were either abandoned or canceled after signing management or acquisition agreements. These agreements were announced and their cancellations disclosed in various Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission from February 17, 2014, through October 24, 2014 (incorporated herein by reference).

NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION  

 

The accompanying financial statements of the Company are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with the requirements for Form 10-K and Regulation S-X.

 

Going Concern

 

Since inception, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $46,406,354. The Company currently has negative working capital. The amount of capital required to sustain operations is subject to future events and uncertainties. The Company must secure additional working capital through loans, sale of equity securities, or a combination, in order to implement its current business plans. There can be no assurance that such funding will be available in the future, or available on commercially reasonable terms favorable to the Company. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been presented on the basis of the continuation of the Company as a going concern and do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Management continued to manage its costs for the year ended April 30, 2020, to ensure appropriate funding is on hand for its limited operations.

NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The financial statements include the accounts of the Company. The Company did not have operations for the year ended April 30, 2019, or 2020.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States 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. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to intangible assets and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. 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 experienced by the Company 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.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Intangible Assets

 

We review our long-lived assets, including intangible assets subject to amortization, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Impairment, if any, is measured as the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value based on market value (when available) or discounted expected cash flows of those assets and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made. Intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested annually for impairment and more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired.

 

Cash

 

Cash includes all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase. The Company maintains its cash in cash deposit accounts, which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000 per legal ownership. At times, the Company’s accounts may exceed federally insured limits. To date, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. At, April 30, 2019, and 2020, the Company had $5,031 and $858 in cash and no other cash equivalents, respectively.

        

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, line of credit payable, loans from a related party, contingent consideration payable, and convertible note payable. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company reviews the terms of convertible debt, equity instruments and other financing arrangements to determine whether there are embedded derivative instruments, including embedded conversion options that are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as a derivative financial instrument. Also, in connection with the issuance of financing instruments, the Company may issue freestanding options or warrants that may, depending on their terms, be accounted for as derivative instrument liabilities, rather than as equity. The Company may also issue options or warrants to non-employees in connection with consulting or other services.

 

Derivative financial instruments are initially measured at their fair value. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported as charges or credits to income. For warrant-based derivative financial instruments, the Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value the derivative instruments. The Binomial Lattice Model may be used to provide a model that the Company believes provides a more representative model of future expenses, conversion periods and length of time to conversion than the Black Scholes based upon only the remaining short time to note maturities all existing notes have embedded conversion features that cause all of the following accounting treatments to be utilized. To the extent that the initial fair values of the freestanding and/or bifurcated derivative instrument liabilities exceed the total proceeds received, an immediate charge to income is recognized, in order to initially record the derivative instrument liabilities at their fair value.

 

The discount from the face value of the convertible debt or equity instruments resulting from allocating some or all of the proceeds to the derivative instruments, together with the stated interest on the instrument, is amortized over the life of the instrument through periodic charges to income, usually using the effective interest method.

 

The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is reassessed at the end of each reporting period. If reclassification is required, the fair value of the derivative instrument, as of the determination date, is reclassified. Any previous charges or credits to income for changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument are not reversed. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within twelve months of the balance sheet date.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”) and Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs - Contracts with Customers (“ASC 340-40”), (collectively, “Topic 606”). On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Topic 606. ASU 2014-09 requires entities to recognize revenue through the application of a five-step model, which includes identification of the contract, identification of the performance obligations, determination of the transaction price, allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations and recognition of revenue as the entity satisfies the performance obligations. The Company implemented ASU 2014-09 for the interim and annual reporting periods of 2015 through 2020, which resulted in no changes to our financial statements as there is no revenue reported in the years presented. 

 

Business Combinations

 

Each investment in a business is being measured and determined whether the investment should be accounted for as a cost-basis investment, an equity investment, a business combination, or a common control transaction. An investment in which the Company do not have a controlling interest and which the Company is not the primary beneficiary but where the Company has the ability to exert significant influence is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. For those investments that we account for in accordance ASC 805, Business Combinations, the Company records the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the management’s estimate of their fair values on the date of the business combination. The assessment of the estimated fair value of each of these can have a material effect on the reported results as intangible assets are amortized over various lives. Furthermore, according to ASC 805-50-30-5, when accounting for a transfer of assets or exchange of shares between entities under common control, the entity that receives the net assets or the equity interests shall initially measure the recognized assets and liabilities transferred at their carrying amounts in the accounts of the transferring entity at the date of transfer.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

 

Basic loss per common share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing the net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. The number of common shares that are exercisable from warrants or converted from debt into common stock is material to affect diluted EPS results.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

On August 8, 2011, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions codified in ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. The Company adopted those provisions using the modified-prospective-transition method. Under this method, compensation cost recognized for all periods prior to April 30, 2012, includes a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of November 30, 2005, based on the grant-date fair value and b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to November 30, 2005, based on the grant-date fair value. In addition, deferred stock compensation related to non-vested options is required to be eliminated against additional paid-in capital. The results for periods prior to April 30, 2012, were not restated.

 

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from parties other than employees in accordance with ASC 505, Equity. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the counterparty. There are no stock based compensation commitments in existence at, April 30, 2020.

 

Income Taxes

 

Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted the accounting standards codified in ASC 740, Income Taxes as of its inception. Pursuant to those standards, the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. Potential benefit of net operating losses has not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not that it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.

 

ASC 740-10-25 prescribes recognition thresholds that must be met before a tax position is recognized in the financial statements and provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. An entity may only recognize or continue to recognize tax positions that meet a “more likely than not” threshold. Based on its evaluation, the Company has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in its financial statements.

 

The Company does not have any unrecognized tax benefits as of April 30, 2019, and 2020 that, if recognized, would affect the Company’s effective income tax rate. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax issues as components of income tax expense. The Company did not recognize or have any accrual for interest and penalties relating to income taxes as of April 30, 2019, and 2020.

Common Share Non-Monetary Consideration

 

In situations where common shares are issued and the fair value of the goods or services received is not readily determinable, the fair value of the common shares is used to measure and record the transaction. The fair value of the common shares issued in exchange for the receipt of goods and services is based on the stock price as of the earliest of the date at which: 

 

  i.  The counterparty’s performance is complete;
  ii.  commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the common shares is reached; or
  iii.  the common shares are issued if they are fully vested and non-forfeitable at that date.

 

Share Purchase Warrants

 

The Company accounts for common share purchase warrants at fair value in accordance with ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. The Black-Scholes option pricing valuation method is used to determine fair value of these warrants. Use of this method requires that the Company make assumptions regarding stock volatility, dividend yields, expected term of the warrants and risk-free interest rates.

 

Convertible Instruments

 

The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in convertible instruments in accordance with ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging Activities”. Applicable GAAP requires companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free-standing derivative financial instruments according to certain criteria. The criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under other GAAP with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. Each reporting period, the Company evaluates whether convertible debt to acquire stock of the Company contain provisions that protect holders from declines in the stock price or otherwise could result in modification of the exercise price under the respective convertible debt agreements.

 

The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when we have determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) as follows: The Company records when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their stated date of redemption. The Company uses a Binomial Lattice Model to judge the fair value of all of its currently outstanding derivative liabilities and to amortize any debt discounts that may have a remaining balance.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company is not able to predict the ultimate impact political and health concerns will have on its business; however, if the current economic conditions continue, the Company will be forced to significantly scale back its business operations and its growth plans and could ultimately have a significant negative impact on the Company.

 

Recently and Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

Management has considered all recent accounting pronouncements issued since the last audit of our consolidated financial statements. The Company’s management believes that these recent pronouncements will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 7.  INCOME TAXES

 

Potential benefits of income tax losses and other tax assets are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. As of April 30, 2020, the Company has operating loss carry forwards of approximately $46,406,354 for tax purposes in various jurisdictions subject to expiration as described below. Pursuant to ASC 740, Income Taxes, the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward and other items giving rise to deferred tax assets. Future tax benefits which may arise as a result of these losses and other items have not been recognized in these financial statements, as their realization is determined not likely to occur and accordingly, the Company has recorded a valuation allowance for the deferred tax asset relating to these items. 

 

The actual income tax provisions differ from the expected amounts calculated by applying the combined income tax statutory rates applicable in each jurisdiction to the Company’s loss before income taxes and non-controlling interest. The calculated tax deferred benefit on April 30, 2020 and 2019 is based on the current Federal statutory income tax rate of 21% applied to the loss before provision for income taxes.

 

 F-12 
Table of Contents 

 

The following table accounts for the differences between the actual income tax benefit and amounts computed for the years ended April 30, 2020 and 2019:

                
  

Years Ended

Non-deductible costs            
Decrease in valuation allowance   (46,406,354)   (46,815,943)
Income tax expense  $     $   

 

The components of the deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability on April 30, 2020 and 2019 are as follows:

                 
   April 30,
   2020  2019
Deferred tax assets  $9,745,344    9,831,348 
           
Valuation allowance   (9,745,344)   (9,831,348)
   $         

 

A valuation allowance has been provided to reduce the net deferred tax asset, as management determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

On April 30, 2020, the Company has approximately a net operating loss carry forward for United States income tax purposes approximating $46,406,000. These losses expire in varying amounts between April 30, 2033, and 2040.

 

NOTE 8.  BASIS OF REPORTING

 

The Company's financial statements are presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

The Company has experienced a loss from operations during its development stage as a result of its investment necessary to achieve its operating plan, which is long-range in nature.  For the period from inception (August 8, 2011) to April 30, 2020, the Company incurred a net loss of approximately $46,406,354.  In addition, the Company has no significant assets or revenue generating operations at, April 30, 2020.  

 

The Company currently does not have sufficient cash to sustain itself for the next 12 months and will require additional funding in order to execute its plan of operations and to continue as a going concern.  To meet its cash needs, management expects to raise capital through a private placement offering.  In the event that this funding does not materialize, certain stockholders have agreed, orally, to loan, on a non-interest-bearing demand basis, sufficient funds to maintain the Company's operations for the next 12 months.

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

 

The Company values its derivative instruments under FASB ASC 820 which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

 

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. The Company classifies fair value balances based on the observability of those inputs. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurement).

 

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, marketable securities, and listed equities.

 

Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date.

 

Level 3 – Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.

 

The Company’s financial instruments consisted of cash, prepaid expense, deposit, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, line of credit, loan from stockholders and convertible debt. The estimated fair value of cash, prepaid expense, deposit, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, line of credit, loan from stockholders approximates its carrying amount due to the short maturity of these instruments. The recognition of the derivative values of convertible debt are based on the weighted-average Black-Scholes option pricing model, which the Company’s classifies as a level three of the fair value measurement hierarchy.

 

The derivative liabilities are measured at fair value using quoted market prices and estimated volatility factors based on historical quoted market prices for the Company’s common stock and are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

 

NOTE 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 855-10, the Company has analyzed its operations subsequent to April 30, 2020 to the date these financial statements were issued and has determined that it does not have any material subsequent events to disclose in these financial statements.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. This conclusion is based on findings, discussed below, that constituted a material weakness. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

In performing the above-referenced assessment, management had concluded that as of April 30, 2020, there were deficiencies in the design or operation of our internal control that adversely affected our internal controls which management considers to be material weakness including those described below:

 

Lack of Formal Policies and Procedures. The Company utilizes a third-party independent contractor for the preparation of its financial statements. Although the financial statements and footnotes are reviewed by our management, we do not have a formal policy to review significant accounting transactions and the accounting treatment of such transactions. The third-party independent contractor is not involved in the day to day operations of the Company and may not be provided information from management on a timely basis to allow for adequate reporting/consideration of certain transactions. 

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that a misstatement of our financial statements would be prevented or detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Table of Contents 

 

Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness, as of April 30, 2020, of our internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) updated 2013. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of April 30, 2020.

 

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a15(f) and 15d15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company's internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. The Company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

        

  pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;
     
  provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and
 
  provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

  

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

During the year ended April 30, 2020, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with management’s evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over the financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act.

 

Independent Registered Accountant’s Internal Control Attestation

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. On July 21, 2010, President Obama signed into law the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, which permanently exempts smaller reporting companies from providing attestation of their internal controls pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. As a result, this report does not provide such an attestation, and the Company will be exempted from providing such an attestation until such time as it reaches $75 million in market capitalization.

Significant Employees 

 

None.

 

Family Relationships  

 

None.

 

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings  

 

No officers or directors has been involved in any of the following events within the last ten years that is material to an evaluation of their ability or integrity as described in Item 401(f) of Regulation S-K.

 

Board Committees

 

Nominating and Compensation Committees

 

The Company does not have standing nominating or compensation committees, or committees performing similar functions. The Company's Board of Directors believes that it is not necessary to have a compensation committee at this time because the functions of such committee are adequately performed by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors also is of the view that it is appropriate for the Company not to have a standing nominating committee because the Board of Directors has performed and will perform adequately the functions of a nominating committee.

 

 14 
Table of Contents 

 

The Company does not have any restrictions on shareholder nominations under its certificate of incorporation or by-laws. The only restrictions are those applicable generally under Nevada corporate law and the federal proxy rules, The Board of Directors will consider suggestions from individual shareholders, subject to evaluation of the person's merits. Stockholders may communicate nominee suggestions directly to the Board of Directors, accompanied by biographical details and a statement of support for the nominees. The suggested nominee must also provide a statement of consent to being considered for nomination. There are no formal criteria for nominees at the present time.

 

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

 

We are not required to, and we do not have an Audit Committee. The Company's directors perform some of the same functions of an Audit Committee, such as: recommending a firm of independent certified public accountants to audit the financial statements; reviewing the auditors' independence, the financial statements, and their audit report; and reviewing management's administration of the system of internal accounting controls. The Company does not currently have a written audit committee charter or similar document.

 

We have no “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K. Our directors have financial statement preparation and interpretation ability obtained over the years from past business experience and education. We believe the cost related to retaining a financial expert at this time is prohibitive. Further, because of the nature of our current limited operations, we believe the services of a financial expert are not warranted.

 

Code of Ethics (COMMENT SCOTT - PUT CODE OF ETHICS IN 2021 REPORT?)

 

The Company’s Board of Directors is developing a code of ethics (the “Code”) that will apply to members of the Board of Directors, all officers, employees and contemplated directors, officers, and employees. The Code will set forth written standards that are designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:

 

 

  honest and ethical conduct,
  full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we file with, or submit to, the Securities and Exchange Commission and in other public communications made by us;
  compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;
  prompt internal reporting of violations of the Code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the Code; and
  accountability for adherence to the Code.

  

An official Code of Ethics has been finalized by the Board of Directors and made available upon request by a shareholder of the Company. We will describe the nature of amendments to the Code on our website, except that we may not describe amendments that are purely a technical, administrative, or otherwise non-substantive. We will also disclose on our website any waivers from any provision of the Code that we may grant. Information about amendments and waivers to the Code will be available on our website for at least 12 months, and thereafter, the information will be available upon request for five years.

 

Conflicts of Interest

 

Certain conflicts of interest exist and may continue to exist between the Company and its officers and directors due to the fact that each has other business interests to which they devote their primary attention. Each officer and director may continue to do so notwithstanding the fact that management time should be devoted to the business of the Company.

Table of Contents 

 

Certain conflicts of interest may exist between the Company and its management, and conflicts may develop in the future. The Company has not established policies or procedures for the resolution of current or potential conflicts of interest between the Company, its officers and directors or affiliated entities. There can be no assurance that management will resolve all conflicts of interest in favor of the Company, and conflicts of interest may arise that can be resolved only through the exercise by management their best judgment as may be consistent with their fiduciary duties. Management will try to resolve conflicts to the best advantage of all concerned.

 

Shareholder Communications - COMMENT SCOTT - HIGHLIGHTED WEBSITE NOT ACTIVE, ADVISE.

 

The Company provides access for its shareholders to the Company via telephone and its web site, www.elitedata.io. Shareholders are able to, and encouraged to, view all of the Company’s SEC filings as well as gain knowledge about the Company’s activities and developments that affect the shareholder’s relationship with the Company. The Company has retained the services of a dedicated professional that provides functions related to the development and distribution of shareholder communications.

 

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our directors and executive officers and the holders of more than 10% of our common stock to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our equity securities. Based solely on our review of the copies of the forms received by us and written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that, during the year ended April 30, 2019, all of our executive officers, directors, and the holders of 10% or more of our Common Stock had not complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements.
