All references to common stock have been retroactively re-stated. A Certificate of Amendment to effect the change of name was filed and became effective with the Nevada Secretary of State on January 10, 2014. These amendments were reviewed by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and approved for filing with an effective date of January 14, 2014. The forward split and name change became effective with the Over-the-Counter market at the opening of trading on January 14, 2014.
In April of 2018 we effected a name change and forward stock split of our authorized and issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a one (1) old for two (2) new basis. Upon effect of the forward split, our authorized capital increased from 250,000,000 shares of common stock to 500,000,000 shares of common stock and correspondingly, our issued and outstanding shares of common stock increased from 34,760,008 to 73,520,016 shares of common stock, all with a par value of $0.001.

Our Current Business
Effective May 10, 2018, we executed and closed a purchase agreement with Grupo Jaque Ltd. and First Colombia Devco SAS (Devco) whereby we acquired the issued and outstanding share capital of Devco, a Colombian company, from its sole shareholder, Grupo Jaque Ltd. The consideration for the purchase was $100,000, which represented a reimbursement of the vendors costs to capitalize and establish the Colombian company, and the costs of establishing the companys Colombian head offices.
Our goal with Devco was to establish business ventures in Colombias rapidly developing economy, with a focus on agriculture and real estate development, tourism, infrastructure, and other high growth sectors that may be identified as worth pursuing. Such enterprises were in the initial planning and investigation stages, with the initial endeavor of Devco being a pilot program for a cattle division which acquires, free ranges and resells cattle for the domestic Colombian beef market, to establish the commercial viability of such an approach.
Effective June 7, 2018, we executed a property purchase agreement with Terra Viva Property Development S.A.S. whereby agreed to acquire certain real property located in the Municipality of Tarso, Antioquia, in Colombia. The property is 13.3125 hectares in size. The consideration for the purchase was $450,000. The Municipality of Tarso, approximately 50km from Medellin, is in the Suroeste region of Antioquia and is a popular resort area
On April 26, 2019, the Board of Directors approved a strategic repositioning of the Company, as follows:
1. |
Disposition of the Colombian assets. We are now in the process of developing a plan for such disposition, which we intend to conclude within one year. | |
2. |
Develop a nationwide network of medical marijuana dispensaries and related businesses in the United States, where legally permitted, with a focus on both THC-dominant and CBD-dominant cannabis manufacturing, distribution and sales. |
In pursuit of the above, on May 14, 2019, the Company announced the following:
1. |
A non-binding Letter of Intent with Critical Mass Industries LLC DBA Good Meds ("Good Meds") pursuant to which the Company will acquire the management assets related to dispensing, cultivation, and extraction as well as the brand assets of Good Meds, which includes BOSM Labs, in exchange for US $1,999,770 and 15,053,233 shares of common stock. Good Meds was founded in Denver, Colorado in 2009 by John Knapp. As a pioneering company in a fully regulated cannabis marketplace, Good Meds operates two retail storefronts and a 90,000-square-foot cultivation and extraction facility, producing world-class Medical and Adult Use products. | |
2. |
A non-biding Letter of Intent to acquire General Extract LLC DBA General Extract (General Extract). General Extract was founded in 2015 as an importer, distributor, broker and post-processor of hemp and hemp derivatives. Working in value-add areas of the supply chain, General Extract operates a hemp- derivative refinement and distribution center in Denver, Colorado. As an intermediary in the global supply of cannabis products, General Extract is closely aligned with both the upstream and downstream cannabis industry leaders. | |
3. |
The terms of a proposed private placement of the Companys common stock in a non-brokered transaction. Under the terms of the private placement, FCOL intends to offer up to US $7 million in shares of common stock at a purchase price of US $0.50 per share. As of this date, the Company has had preliminary discussions with proposed investors, but has not entered into any binding agreements with respect to the sale of the shares. While the Company is confident that the placement will be successful, there can be no assurance that the financing will close or that the terms will not be modified. The offering will be made exclusively to accredited investors pursuant to exemptions from registration under the Securities Act of 1933. |
The Company expects the acquisitions and the financing will close by the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2019.

Revenue
We had no revenues in the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.
Cost of Sales
Cost of sales have been recorded as $0.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses relating to selling marketing and administrative expense, increased for the year ended December 31, 2018 to $337,770 from $52,071 for the year ended December 31, 2017. The increase was due to a ramp-up of parent company administrative expense to support the strategic initiatives in Colombia, along with administrative expenses related to the startup of operations and business activity in the subsidiary.
In the year ended December 31, 2018, we incurred a net loss of $427,457, compared to a net loss of $56,764 in the year ended December 31, 2017.
Cash Requirements
The Company intends to dispose of its Colombian operations and undertake new strategic initiatives in the next 12 months. Accordingly, it is not in a position to accurately assess its cash requirements over the next 12 months. However, in order to provide funds, we plan to pursue additional equity financing from private investors or possibly a registered public offering. We do not currently have any definitive arrangements in place for the completion of any further private placement financings and there is no assurance that we will be successful in completing any further private placement financings. If we are unable to achieve the necessary additional financing, then we plan to reduce the amounts that we spend on our business activities and administrative expenses in order to be within the amount of capital resources that are available to us.
We have not investigated the availability of commercial loans or other debt financing to supplement or meet our cash requirements. In the uncertain event that any such debt financing alternatives were available to us on acceptable terms, they would increase our liabilities and future cash commitments
Going Concern
Our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 have been prepared on a going concern basis and contain an additional explanatory paragraph which identifies issues that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
8
The continuation of our company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders and note holders, the ability of our company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and ultimately the attainment of profitable operations. As at December 31, 2018, our company has not generated any revenues, used $452,453 of cash for operating activities, has working capital of $189,171, and has an accumulated deficit of $840,656 since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding our companys ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should our company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon the accompanying financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and are expressed in United States dollars. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by managements application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our financial statements is critical to an understanding of our financial statements.
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in US dollars. The financial statements include the accounts of our company. Our companys fiscal year-end is December 31.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of these financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Our company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to useful life and recoverability of long-lived assets, collectability of receivables and related bad debt expenses, inventory shrinkage and write off, deferred income tax asset valuations and loss contingencies. Our company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that we believe 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 our company may differ materially and adversely from our companys estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Our company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturities of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.
Financial Instruments/Concentrations
Our companys financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. Pursuant to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures and ASC 825, Financial Instruments the fair value of cash equivalent is determined based on Level 1 inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Our company believes that the recorded values of all of our companys other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and relatively short maturity dates or durations.
9
Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currency of the Company and the reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar. Gains and losses arising on foreign currency denominated transactions included in the determination of income. Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Canadian dollars. The Company has not, to the date of these financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
ASC 220, Comprehensive Income establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income (loss) and its components in the financial statements. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, our companys only component of comprehensive income was foreign currency translation adjustments.
Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
Our company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all potentially dilutive shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. Our company did not have any dilutive potential shares outstanding at December 31, 2018 or 2017.
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 ASC 740, Income Taxes as of its inception. Pursuant to ASC 740 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
Revenue Recognition
The Company follows topic 606 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for revenue recognition and ASU 2014-09. On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, which is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires revenue to be recognized in a manner to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. The Company will consider revenue realized or realizable and earned according to the following pattern: (1) Identify the contract with a customer, (2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) Determine the transaction price, (4) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Our company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
First Colombia Development, Corp.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of First Colombia Development Corp. (the Company) as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the years then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2018, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Consideration of 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 has no revenues, has suffered from recurring losses from operations and has cash used in operating activities which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans with regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Consolidated Company’s 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 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 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.

First Colombia Development Corp.
Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements
December 31, 2018
1. |
Nature of Operations |
First Colombia Development Inc. (the Company) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on May 10, 2011. Effective April 26, 2018, the Company changed its name from AFC Building Technologies Inc. to First Colombia Development Inc. The Company is establishing various business ventures in Colombia in the agriculture and real estate development, tourism, and infrastructure sectors. The Companys initial endeavor is acquiring, free ranging and reselling cattle for the domestic Colombian beef market. On May 10, 2018, the Company acquired all the issued and outstanding share capital of a Colombian company, First Colombia Devco SAS. | |
2. |
Going Concern |
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders and note holders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and ultimately the attainment of profitable operations. As at December 31, 2018, the Company has not generated any revenues and has an accumulated deficit of $840,656 since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. | |
3. |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
a) |
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation | |
These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in US dollars. The Companys fiscal year-end is December 31. | ||
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, First Colombia Devco SAS (from the date of acquisition, May 10, 2018). All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. | ||
b) |
Use of Estimates | |
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the estimated useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets, deferred income tax asset valuations and loss contingencies. 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 Companys estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. | ||
c) |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | |
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturities of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. | ||
d) |
Inventory | |
Inventory consists of cattle acquired in May 2018 which are valued at the lower of cost or market. The Company expects to sell the inventory in less than one year. |

First Colombia Development Corp.
Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements
December 31, 2018
e) |
Property and Equipment | |
Property and equipment are stated at cost. The Company depreciates the cost of property and equipment over their estimated useful lives at the following annual rates: |
Office equipment and furniture | 10 years straight-line basis |
Machinery and equipment | 5-10 years straight-line basis |
f) |
Goodwill | |
Goodwill was generated through the acquisition of First Colombia Devco SAS as the total consideration paid exceeded the fair value of the net assets acquired. | ||
The Company tests its goodwill for impairment at least annually and whenever events or circumstances change that indicate impairment may have occurred. A significant amount of judgment is involved in determining if an indicator of impairment has occurred. Such indicators may include, among others: a significant decline in the Companys expected future cash flows; a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate; unanticipated competition; and slower growth rates. Any adverse change in these factors could have a significant impact on the recoverability of goodwill and the Companys consolidated financial results. As a result of the Companys change of direction announced on April 26, 2019, the Company recorded a loss of goodwill of $50,965, representing the remainder of goodwill from the acquisition of First Colombia Devco SAS. | ||
g) |
Long-lived Assets | |
In accordance with ASC 360, Property Plant and Equipment, the Company tests long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and a current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life. | ||
Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisal in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value. | ||
h) |
Financial Instruments/Concentrations | |
The Companys financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable, and due to related party. Pursuant to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, the fair value of cash equivalents are determined based on Level 1 inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The Company believes that the recorded values of all of the Companys other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and relatively short maturity dates or durations. | ||
i) |
Foreign Currency Translation | |
The functional currency of the Company is the United States dollar. The functional currency of the subsidiary is the Colombian Peso. The financial statements of the Companys Colombian subsidiary were translated to United States dollars in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Translation Matters, using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates of exchange for the year for revenues and expenses. The period-end exchange rate was 3,248 Colombian Pesos to United States dollar, and the average exchange rate was 3,027 Colombian Pesos to United States dollar. Translation gains (losses) are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a component of stockholders equity. Gains and losses arising on foreign currency denominated transactions included in the determination of income. Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Colombian Pesos and Canadian dollars. The Company has not, to the date of these consolidated financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations. |

j) |
Comprehensive Loss | |
ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income (loss) and its components in the consolidated financial statements. During the year ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Companys only component of comprehensive income was foreign currency translation adjustments. | ||
k) |
Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share | |
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all potentially dilutive shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. The Company did not have any dilutive potential shares outstanding at December 31, 2018 or December 31, 2017. | ||
l) |
Revenue Recognition | |
The Company follows topic 606 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for revenue recognition and ASU 2014-09. On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, which is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires revenue to be recognized in a manner to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. The Company will consider revenue realized or realizable and earned according to the following pattern: (1) Identify the contract with a customer, (2) Identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) Determine the transaction price, (4) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. | ||
m) |
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 ASC 740, Income Taxes, as of its inception. Pursuant to ASC 740 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions. | ||
n) |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | |
In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, CompensationStock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting which addresses accounting for issuance of all share-based payments on the same accounting model. Previously, accounting for share-based payments to employees was covered by ASC Topic 718 while accounting for such payments to non- employees was covered by ASC Subtopic 505-50. As it considered recently issued updates to ASC 718, the FASB, as part of its simplification initiatives, decided to replace ASC Subtopic 505-50 with Topic 718 as the guidance for non-employee share-based awards. Under this new guidance, both sets of awards, for employees and non-employees, will essentially follow the same model, with small variations related to determining the term assumption when valuing a non-employee award as well as a different expense attribution model for non-employee awards as opposed to employee awards. The ASU is effective for public business entities beginning in 2019 calendar years and one year later for non-public business entities. The Company does not expect the implementation of this guidance to have a material effect on its financial position and results of operations. |

December 31, 2018
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, "Leases." ASU 2016-02 significantly changes the accounting for leases by requiring lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for leases greater than 12 months on their balance sheet. The lessor model stays substantially the same; however, there were modifications to conform lessor accounting with the lessee model, eliminate real estate specific guidance, further define certain lease and non-lease components, and change the definition of initial direct costs of leases requiring significantly more leasing related costs to be expensed upfront. ASU 2016-02 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. The Company has not entered into any long-term leases.
The Company has evaluated all other new ASU's issued by FASB, and has concluded that these updates do not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements as of December 31, 2018.

Income Taxes |
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was enacted on December 22, 2017 which reduced the U.S. corporate statutory tax rate from 35% to 21% beginning on January 1, 2018. The provision for income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the statutory income tax rate to loss before income taxes as follows at December 31: |
2018 | 2017 | ||||||
Net Loss Before Taxes | $ | (427,457 | ) | $ | (56,764 | ) | |
Net loss before taxes at the statutory rate | (90,968 | ) | (11,920 | ) | |||
Non-deductible expenses | | | |||||
Valuation allowance | 90,968 | 11,920 | |||||
Provision for income taxes at combined tax rates | | |
Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in the tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within income tax expense. At December 31, 2018, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $581,900 that may be offset against future taxable income from the year 2019 through 2038. This results in a deferred tax asset of $133,975 as of December 31, 2018. At December 31, 2017, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $206,500. This results in a deferred tax asset of $43,367 as of December 31, 2017. The Company has fully allowed for these assets as of the years then ended. The valuation allowance is estimated to be approximately $133,975 and $43,367 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. | |

Subsequent Events |
On April 26, 2019, the Board of Directors approved a series of resolutions intended to reposition the Company, including the disposition of the Colombian assets and entry into the cannabis industry in the United States. In pursuit of the new strategy, on May 14, 2019, announced two non-binding letters of intent to acquire assets in the cannabis space, including medical marijuana dispensaries and cannabis oil extraction assets. | |
On April 27, 2019, the cattle owned by First Colombia Devco SAS were sold to a rancher for $9,746.68. | |
On May 10, 2019, The Company entered into a Letter of Intent to sell all of the land that it has previously purchased in Colombia to the members of General Extract LLC as consideration for its purchase of 100% ownership of General Extract LLC.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
There were no disagreements related to accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, internal controls or auditing scope or procedure during the two fiscal years and interim periods, including the interim period up through the date the relationship ended.
Item 9A. Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act), our company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our companys management, including our president (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer), of the effectiveness of our companys disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based upon that evaluation, our president (our principal executive officer) and our chief financial officer (principal financial officer and principal accounting officer) concluded that our companys disclosure controls and procedures are not effective due to lack of segregation of duties to ensure that information required to be disclosed by our company in the reports that our company files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our companys management, including our president (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of control procedures. The objectives of internal control include providing management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, and that transactions are executed in accordance with managements authorization and recorded properly to permit the preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework, as published in 1992.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our companys annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2018, our management determined that there were control deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses, as described below:
- There is a lack of accounting personnel with the requisite knowledge of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the US (GAAP) and the financial reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission;
- There are insufficient written policies and procedures to ensure the correct application of accounting and financial reporting with respect to the current requirements of GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and
- There is a lack of segregation of duties, in that we only had one person performing all accounting-related duties.
Our management reviewed the results of its assessment with our Board of Directors. Notwithstanding the existence of these material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, our management believes that the financial statements included in its reports fairly present in all material respects our companys financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our companys registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not subject to attestation by our companys registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit our company to provide only managements report in this annual report.
23
Inherent limitations on effectiveness of controls
Internal control over financial reporting has inherent limitations which include but is not limited to the use of independent professionals for advice and guidance, interpretation of existing and/or changing rules and principles, segregation of management duties, scale of organization, and personnel factors. Internal control over financial reporting is a process which involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis, however these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process and it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2018 that have materially or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Significant Employees
There are no individuals other than our executive officers who make a significant contribution to our business.
Family Relationships
There are no family relationships between any of our directors, executive officers and proposed directors or executive officers.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or executive officers has, during the past ten years:
1. |
been convicted in a criminal proceeding or been subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offences); | |
2. |
had any bankruptcy petition filed by or against the business or property of the person, or of any partnership, corporation or business association of which he was a general partner or executive officer, either at the time of the bankruptcy filing or within two years prior to that time; | |
3. |
been subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction or federal or state authority, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting, his involvement in any type of business, securities, futures, commodities, investment, banking, savings and loan, or insurance activities, or to be associated with persons engaged in any such activity; | |
4. |
been found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated; | |
5. |
been the subject of, or a party to, any federal or state judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated (not including any settlement of a civil proceeding among private litigants), relating to an alleged violation of any federal or state securities or commodities law or regulation, any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order, or any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or | |

27
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Our common stock is not registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Accordingly, our officers, directors, and principal stockholders are not subject to the beneficial ownership reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.
Code of Ethics
We plan to adopt a code of ethics that obligates our directors, officers and employees to disclose potential conflicts of interest and prohibits those persons from engaging in such transactions without our consent.
Board and Committee Meetings
Our board of directors held no formal meetings during the year ended December 31, 2018. All proceedings of the board of directors were conducted by resolutions consented to in writing by all the directors and filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the directors. Such resolutions consented to in writing by the directors entitled to vote on that resolution at a meeting of the directors are, according to the Nevada General Corporate Law and our Bylaws, as valid and effective as if they had been passed at a meeting of the directors duly called and held.
For the year ended December 31, 2018, there was no standing nominating committee or committee performing similar functions for our company. The members of our board of directors participate in the consideration of director nominees.
Nomination Process
As of December 31, 2018, we did not effect any material changes to the procedures by which our shareholders may recommend nominees to our board of directors. Our board of directors does not have a policy with regards to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by our shareholders. Our board of directors has determined that it is in the best position to evaluate our companys requirements as well as the qualifications of each candidate when the board considers a nominee for a position on our board of directors. If shareholders wish to recommend candidates directly to our board, they may do so by sending communications to the president of our company at the address on the cover of this annual report.
Audit Committee
We do not currently have an audit committee or a committee performing similar functions. The board of directors as a whole participates in the review of financial statements and disclosure.
Audit Committee Financial Expert
Our board of directors has determined that none of the members of our audit committee qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K, and is independent as the term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv) of Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
We believe that the members of our board of directors are collectively capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. We believe that retaining an independent director who would qualify as an audit committee financial expert would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in our circumstances given the early stages of our development and the fact that we have not generated any material revenues to date. In addition, we currently do not have nominating, compensation or audit committees or committees performing similar functions nor do we have a written nominating, compensation or audit committee charter. Our board of directors does not believe that it is necessary to have such committees because it believes the functions of such committees can be adequately performed by our board of directors.

Item 11. Executive Compensation

Under Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the persons actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of shares of common stock actually outstanding on May 23, 2019. As of May 23, 2019, we had 76,400,016 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding. All figures assume full dilution of convertible securities held. |
(2) |
Cindy Kelly has acted as our sole director and officer since May 10, 2011 through the year ended December 31, 2017, and is our chief financial officer. |
Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans
There were no unexercised options, stock that has not vested and equity incentive plan awards for our named executive officers during the last two fiscal years.
Changes in Control
We are unaware of any contract or other arrangement the operation of which may at a subsequent date result in a change in control of our company.
Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence
During the year ended December 31, 2018, we incurred $76,250 of contractor expenses to the executive officers of our company.
Except as disclosed herein, no director, executive officer, shareholder holding at least 5% of shares of our common stock, or any family member thereof, had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction, or proposed transaction since the year ended December 31, 2018, in which the amount involved in the transaction exceeded or exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of our total assets at the year-end for the last three completed fiscal years.
Director Independence
We currently act with four directors, Christopher Hansen, Joseph Graham, John Knapp, and Kenneth Lord. We have determined that two of our directors are independent directors as defined in NASDAQ Marketplace Rule 4200(a)(15).
We do not at this time have a standing audit, compensation or nominating committee; our board of directors as a whole acts in such capacities. We believe that our board of directors is capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting.
31
Item 14. Principal Accounting Fees and Services
The aggregate fees billed for the most recently completed fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 and for fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 for professional services rendered by the principal accountant for the audit of our annual financial statements and review of the financial statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for these fiscal periods were as follows:
Year Ended | ||
December 31, 2018 |
December 31, 2017 | |
Audit Fees | $38,838 | $10,000 |
Audit Related Fees | - | - |
Tax Fees | - | - |
All Other Fees | - | - |
Total | $38,838 | $10,000 |
Effective May 6, 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules that require that before our independent auditors are engaged by us to render any auditing or permitted non-audit related service, the engagement be:
- approved by our audit committee (which consists of our entire board of directors); or
- entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the board of directors, provided the policies and procedures are detailed as to the particular service, the board of directors is informed of each service, and such policies and procedures do not include delegation of the board of directors' responsibilities to management.
Our board of directors pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by the board of directors either before or after the respective services were rendered.
Our board of directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by our independent auditors and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining our independent auditors independence.
