The Company’s common stock is traded on the OTC Bulletin Board and the OTCQB under the symbol “ESSI”.


Corporate History


Formation and Development


The Company was incorporated in the state of Nevada on December 8, 2009, under the name Pristine Solutions, Inc. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Pristine Solutions Limited, was incorporated under the laws of Jamaica. The Company’s original business plan focused on developing a network of sales points for the sale and service of tankless water heaters in Jamaica, through Pristine Solutions Limited. The Company’s aim was to become the first tankless water heater company specializing in tankless-only products to enter the Jamaican market, and the only company in the Jamaican market offering solar-powered tankless water heater products.  As part of its plan, on December 30, 2009, the Company entered into a distribution agreement with Zhongshan Guangsheng Industry Co., Ltd., of China (“Zhongshan”), the manufacturer of the tankless water heaters.   Zhongshan manufactures the tankless water heaters under the brand Gleamous Electric Appliances. 


On August 22, 2012, Christine Buchanan-McKenzie resigned from all positions with the Company, including, but not limited to that of President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer, and a member of the Board of Directors.  The resignation did not involve any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices. On the same day, Mr. Michael Borkowski was appointed as President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer, and the sole member of the Board of Directors of the Company.


On August 23, 2012, the Company and its controlling stockholders entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange”) with Eaton Scientific Systems, Ltd., a Nevada corporation (“ESSL”) and the shareholders of ESSL (the “ESSL Shareholders”), whereby the Company acquired 25,000,000 shares of common stock (100%) of ESSL (the “ESSL Stock”) from the ESSL Shareholders.   In exchange for the ESSL Stock, the Company issued 25,000,000 shares of its common stock to the ESSL Shareholders.  In addition, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Michael J. Borkowski, and the Company’s controlling shareholder and former President, Ms. Christine Buchanan-McKenzie, entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement, whereby Mr. Borkowski would purchase one hundred (100%) percent of the Company’s common shares owned by Mrs. Buchanan-McKenzie, or 240,000,000 shares, at par value $.0001, representing approximately 54.1% of the Company’s total issued and outstanding shares.  The Common Stock Purchase Agreement and Share Exchange, was completed on October 22, 2012.  On October 23, 2012, the Common Stock Purchase Agreement was finalized, and a change in control of the Registrant took place.

In conjunction with the Share Exchange and Common Stock Purchase Agreement, the total shares held by the ESSL Shareholders are 265,000,000, or approximately 59.8% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company as of October 30, 2012.  Certain ESSL shareholders owning a total of 135,779,375 shares of the Company’s common stock, representing approximately 30.64% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company, entered into three (3) separate twenty-four (24) month Lock-Up Agreements.


As a result of the Share Exchange and Common Stock Purchase Agreement, (i) there was a change in control of the Registrant; (ii) ESSL became the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary; (iii) the ESSL became the Company’s primary business, and (iv) on November 27, 2012, the Company changed its name to Eaton Scientific Systems, Inc.


In October, 2013, the Company’s Management was introduced to Domenic Marciano (“Marciano”).  Marciano represented that he intended to acquire an exclusive license to a unique automotive product, the EcoFlora Spark Plug (the “ECO Plug”), with a proprietary technology, and that the ECO Plug a has the potential to be uniquely positioned in the automotive parts business in the United States and International automotive parts marketplace.


The Majority Shareholders acknowledge that the Company has not been able to attract investment capital sufficient to execute its business plan because of its Share price.  Further, Management believes that the potential success of the ECO Plug technology could potentially provide value to the Company and its shareholders. As a result, on November 26, 2013, the Company and its Majority Shareholders (the “Majority Stockholders”) entered into an Agreement for the Purchase of Common Stock (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Marciano whereby Marciano acquired 227,370,000 shares of the Company’s common stock from the Majority Stockholders at par value $.0001, representing approximately 51.3% of the Company’s total issued and outstanding shares, in exchange for cash in the amount of $22,737 (the “Cash Proceeds”).  The Stock Purchase Agreement, and subsequent transaction closing, was completed on November 26, 2013, and a change in control of the Company took place.


The Majority Shareholders and the Company’s Management also believe it is in the best interest of the Company’s Shareholders to operate Eaton Scientific Systems, Ltd. (“Eaton Sub”) a Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, as a privately held Company, until such time where it is sufficiently capitalized to increase the probability for its Clinical Trials of Homatropine (“Tropine 3”) in oral suspension for the treatment of hot flash symptoms in pre-menopausal, menopausal and post menopausal women, to be in a position to yield results that may provide the opportunity for a potential FDA approval for marketing to consumers in the US.


In connection with the terms and conditions of the Stock Purchase Agreement and sale of 227,370,000 shares held by the Majority Stockholders:


1.

Marciano appointed two new directors to the Company’s board of directors; and

2.

The “Lock-Up-Leak-Out” Agreements executed in October 2012 were cancelled by mutual agreement between the Board and the Company’s Shareholders who were party to the Agreements.

3.

The Majority Shareholders of the Company have voted to “Spin-out” to its Shareholders, one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Eaton Scientific Systems Ltd., its operating subsidiary, as of the record date of November 25, 2013, on a one-for-one basis within sixty-days (60) of the Change of Control of the Company, or by January 25, 2014.  


On January 9, 2014, the Spin-out was complete, and Eaton Scientific Systems, Ltd. was no longer a subsidiary of the Company.


On February 14, 2014, the Company changed its name to Eco Science Solutions, Inc. (OTCQB.ESSI).


NOTE: The following notes and any further reference made to “the Company”, "we", "us", "our" and "ESSI" shall mean Eco Science Solutions, Inc. (formerly Eaton Scientific Systems, Inc.), unless otherwise indicated.


Description of Business  


Headquartered in Miami, Florida, Eco Science Solutions, Inc., a Nevada corporation, is charged with the origination, development and commercialization of innovative aftermarket automotive parts.


On December 4, 2013, the Company (the “Company”) executed an Agreement of the License of Intellectual Property (the “License Agreement”) dated November 4, 2013 with Eco Science Solutions International, Inc., a Canadian corporation (“ESS International”), for the exclusive license to a revolutionary Spark Plug technology, the ECO Spark Plug, that has filed for Patent protection in Canada and the United States based on its "Internal Pre-Combustion Chamber High Efficiency Spark Plug" technology. In connection with the License Agreement, the Company issued ESS International 2,500,000 shares of the Company’s Series “A” Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”), in exchange for the exclusive license of the Patent Applications, in perpetuity.  The Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock at a conversion rate of 10 common shares for each preferred share.


On February 14, 2014, the Company effected a 1000-to-1 reverse stock split.  As a result, the total shares of common stock issued and outstanding was reduced to 443,001 with a par value of $0.10.

On April 4, 2014, the Company received notice from Eco Science Solutions International, Inc. to convert 100% of the Series “A” preferred shares into restricted common shares on a 10 for 1 basis.  As a result, on April 9, 2014, 25,000,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock was issued, of which 19,886,668 shares were issued to the Company’s chairman, Domenic Marciano, and 5,133,332 shares were issued to non-related parties.  Subsequent to the conversion, Eco Science Solutions International, Inc. no longer holds any shares of the Company’s capital stock, and Mr. Marciano holds 20,094,038 shares of the Company’s common stock, which represents 62.53% of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock on a fully diluted basis.


The Company is currently in the testing and development stages, and intends to validate its technology and then and manufacture and sell the technology.


Product and Strategy Overview


The Company is in the process of developing and manufacturing the ECO Plug spark plug, a revolutionary technological advancement for the spark plug and the internal combustion engine. The ECO Plug is intended to:


·

improve engine performance

·

increase horsepower

·

reduce fuel consumption

·

improve combustion efficiency

·

prolong engine’s useful life, and

·

reduce/eliminate emission of carbon dioxide (CO) and other noxious gases

  

The ECO Plug


The novel design of the ECO Plug not only helps to get an engine closer to its ideal operating condition, but also addresses several vital ecological and fuel conservation issues as well.  The use of the ECO Plugs in any vehicle with an internal combustion engine can reduce airborne pollution as well as reduce consumption of fossil fuels (gasoline, diesel and bio-diesel). For new cars, the use of the ECO Plug technology would result in even better results.


The ECO Plug not only increases an engine’s horsepower, it also reduces fuel consumption. In addition, because the engine burns hotter for a shorter period of time, it extends the life of the engine.


The United States consumes 9.5 million barrels of oil a day, largely burned by the transportation sector.  To illustrate the effects of the ECO Plug technology on the nation’s economy, if, for example, 50% of the nation’s vehicles utilized the ECO Plug in their vehicles, the amount of fuel required by the transportation sector would diminish by 700,000 barrels of oil a day.  This represents a saving of $28 Million a day of $40 a barrel oil, or $105 Million a day of $150 a barrel oil.  Extrapolated over 365 days, this represents an enormous economic savings for the United States.


About Emissions [1]


Pollution from the internal combustion engine is caused primarily by the incomplete combustion of the fuel inside the cylinder head.  With the conventional spark plug, approximately 80% of the gas/air fuel mixture is burned in each cycle of the ignition.  The remaining 20% is discharged through the catalytic converter and exhaust pipe, resulting in the release of COand other noxious gases into the atmosphere.


Emissions testing started out as a tool used by manufacturers and engine builders as a means to optimize engine performance. Half a century later, the amount of hydrocarbon, carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxide spewing from vehicle tailpipes remains an indicator of engine efficiency. Spark plugs and ignition systems play an important role in determining exactly how much fuel gets burned.


There are three primary types of emissions: unburned hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxide. Unburned hydrocarbons are fuel that passes through an engine without getting burned. High carbon monoxide emissions occur because of incomplete combustion.  Nitrogen oxide emissions occur when the combustion chamber gets too hot. The air is about 80 percent nitrogen by volume. While nitrogen oxide isn't normally involved in the combustion process, temperatures exceeding 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit can cause the nitrogen oxide molecule to break apart, combining with oxygen to form oxides of nitrogen.


Carbon Monoxide and Nitrogen Oxides


High carbon monoxide levels tend to accompany high hydrocarbon levels, since they're both a result of incomplete combustion. As such, bad or inappropriate spark plugs can have all the same effects on carbon monoxide as hydrocarbon. Replacing stock plugs with a set of high performance plugs can help to reduce both carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon output by encouraging a more complete combustion cycle.  


For excess nitrogen oxide production, common causes include an excessively lean fuel mixture, a defective exhaust gas recirculation system, a bad catalytic converter and consistent engine overheating.

ECO Plug Emissions Solutions


The ECO Plug has also been developed to provide a new level of combustion efficiency, by burning 100% of the gas/air fuel mixture in the cylinder head.  With conventional spark plugs, heat that is produced is wasted on heating engine parts.  With the ECO Plug, this heat is now used more efficiently, by designing it to be utilized for the vehicle’s movement. 


It is estimated that, of the 2 trillion metric tons of CO2 reportedly released into the atmosphere in 2007, approximately 50% of these emissions were caused by the internal combustion engine of cars, trucks, buses, etc. It is also estimated that, with the implementation of the Company’s ECO Plug technology by even half of the existing vehicles, up to 500 million metric tons of CO2 per year could be eliminated.


To place the foregoing information in context that is both meaningful and addresses President Obama’s pledge to make America clean and energy independent, bad spark plugs increase hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide emissions. The Company’s ultimate goal, with the support of new car manufacturers, is to have the ECO Plug technology replace existing spark plugs in all cars and trucks, and reduce the carbon footprint of the transportation.   


Pre-Com Chamber


Unlike other solutions utilizing batteries and/or alternative fuels, broad application of the ECO Plug’s Pre-Com Chamber technology doesn’t rely on massive changes to vehicle drive systems or fuel/power infrastructures for its success. The ECO Plug fits directly into all existing vehicle systems and existing fuel delivery infrastructures.  The ECO Plug’s Pre-Com Chamber technology is ready for immediate deployment into existing vehicles (aftermarket) and the vast majority new vehicles being produced around the world (OEM).

The Market


Over 1 billion spark plugs are sold each year – with 400 million in the U.S. alone.  Spark plugs are sold to auto manufacturers and to consumers directly. The Spark Plug industry has experienced steady growth since the recession, when downstream demand from automakers plummeted with falling consumer vehicle purchases. Automakers have since ramped up production and increased their demand for spark plugs.


The Spark Plug Manufacturing industry has experienced steady growth since 2010, including a 3.5% revenue increase in 2013. The rapidly increasing tide of low-cost imports has continued to erode industry revenue and reinforce a focus on price-based competition. The sheer level of price-based competition has prevented domestic manufacturers from implementing price increases despite rising production costs. As a result, domestic operators are exiting the industry, and imports are continuously occupying a greater share of domestic demand. Over the five years to 2013, imports are growing at an average annual rate of 6.5% imports have expanded from occupying 46.8% of domestic demand in 2008 to an anticipated 70.3% in 2013.


The several hundred types of spark plugs available cover a variety of internal-combustion engine-driven transportation, work, and pleasure vehicles. Spark plugs are used in automobiles, trucks, buses, tractors, boats (inboard and outboard), aircraft, motorcycles, scooters, industrial and oil field engines, oil burners, power mowers and chain saws. Turbine igniters, a type of spark plug, help power the jet engines in most large commercial aircraft today while glow-plugs are used in diesel engine applications.

Spark Plugs-Defined [2]


The purpose of a spark plug is to provide a place for an electric spark that is hot enough to ignite the air/fuel mixture inside the combustion chamber of an internal combustion engine. This is done by a high voltage current arcing across a gap on the spark plug.  A spark plug is composed of a shell, insulator and the central conductor. It passes through the wall of the combustion chamber and therefore must also seal the combustion chamber against high pressures and temperatures.

[f20140131essi10kfinalclea001.jpg]


FIGURE 1: Conventional Spark Plug


The spark plug is connected to the high voltage generated by an ignition coil. As the electrons flow from the coil, a voltage difference develops between the central electrode and side electrode. No current can flow because the fuel and air in the gap is an insulator, but as the voltage rises further, it begins to change the structure of the gases between the electrodes. Once the voltage exceeds the dielectric strength of the gases, the gases become ionized. The ionized gas becomes a conductor and allows electrons to flow across the gap. Spark plugs usually require voltage of 12,000–25,000 volts or more to 'fire' properly, although it can go up to 45,000 volts. They supply higher current during the discharge process resulting in a hotter and longer-duration spark.


As the current of electrons surges across the gap, it raises the temperature of the spark channel to 60,000 K. The intense heat in the spark channel causes the ionized gas to expand very quickly, like a small explosion. This is the 'click' heard when observing a spark, similar to lightning and thunder.


The heat and pressure force the gases to react with each other, and at the end of the spark event there should be a small ball of fire in the spark gap as the gases burn on their own. The size of this fireball or kernel depends on the exact composition of the mixture between the electrodes and the level of combustion chamber turbulence at the time of the spark. A small kernel will make the engine run as though the ignition timing was retarded, and a large one as though the timing was advanced.

Patent Applications Abstracts


Following is the Patent Application Abstract, which provides information on the technology underlying the Company’s pending Patent Application(s):


Abstract to CIPO Patent application 2,786,022 [1]

Internal combustion engines employ spark plugs for igniting the air and fuel mixture in the engine cylinder combustion chamber for providing the power to rotate the crank shaft. Heretofore, spark plugs are provided with electrodes located outside the bottom end of the spark plug body to extend into the engine combustion chamber. In operation, the electrodes are exposed to the extremely high heat produced in the combustion chamber, which causes physical erosion of the electrodes. Also, burned particles such as carbon are deposited on the electrodes to result in the loss of effectiveness of the ignition function of the spark plug. Approximately, 80% of the air and fuel mixture is burned in each cycle of the ignition of a conventional spark plug. A large amount of waste materials including noxious gases such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxides and hydrocarbon and other partially burned or unburned materials are produced in the engine chamber in the ignition. Some of the materials and noxious gases are discharged from the engine to the atmosphere, which cause pollution of the latter. The pollution may be reduced by passing the discharge through a catalytic converter. However, the remaining waste materials in the ignition chamber will mix with the fresh air and fuel mixture subsequently injected into the ignition chamber to form a contaminated and degraded fuel mixture which inherent causes the reduction of the ignition efficiency and the loss of power output from the engine with high consumption of fuel. Furthermore, with the electrodes of the spark plug located in the combustion chamber, ignition would occur in the combustion chamber of the engine so that the component parts in the combustion chamber are subjected directly to the high temperature of the combustion. The high temperature reduces the life of the engine due to heat stress of the components.


Attempts have been made to provide new spark plug constructions with the electrodes located within a hollow pre-ignition chamber formed in the spark plug body or shell surrounding the electrodes in a spaced manner. The central electrode and the grounding electrode are recessed and spaced from the lower opening of the pre-ignition chamber. The grounding electrode may also separate the pre-ignition chamber into a lower chamber between the central electrode and the lower opening of the shell and an upper chamber surrounding the insulated portion of the central electrode. Ignition occurs in the lower chamber so that the flame is injected into the cylinder chamber to ignite the air and fuel mixture therein resulting in less waste materials produced in the ignition and less high temperature exposure to the engine components. However, waste material is still produced in the pre-ignition chamber. The waste materials, again as in the conventional spark plug, would mix with the fresh air and fuel mixture injected into the cylinder chamber to form a concentrated polluted mixture in the pre-ignition chamber to cause unsatisfactory ignition and back fire.

Threads are provides on the outer surface of the lower portion of the shell (11) for mounting the spark plug (10) to an internal combustion engine. The central electrode (12) is made of a high temperature resistant noble metal or metal alloy and it is surrounded and imbedded in a ceramic insulator (13) which has an upper portion (13) extending upwards from the top of the shell (11), and an electrical connection terminal (14) is located at the top of the central electrode for conducting the ignition current to the spark plug. The lower portion of the ceramic insulator (13) has a generally frusto-conical lower end portion (15) extending downwardly into a hollow cylindrical cavity (16) located within the lower end portion (17) of the shell (11). Threads are provided on the outer surface of the lower end portion of the shell (11) for mounting the spark plug to the cylinder head of an internal combustion engine.


An annular partition ring (18) is located in a generally horizontal position within the cylindrical cavity (16) and is spaced from the upper end of the latter. The annular partition ring (18) is made of a high temperature resistant noble metal or metal alloy and it has an outer diameter equal to the inner diameter of the cylindrical cavity (16) and a central inner opening (19) having a diameter equal to the outer diameter of a predetermined position of the frusto-conical lower end portion (15) of the ceramic insulator (13) such that when the annular partition ring (18) is inserted into the cylindrical cavity (16) it is retained in the predetermined position horizontally such that an upper chamber (20) is formed at the upper portion of the cylindrical cavity (16) with the inner opening 19 of the annular partition ring (18)  intimately engaged with the conical side wall of the lower end portion of the ceramic insulator (13). A plurality of through openings (21) is formed in the annular partition ring (18), as shown in Figures 4 and 5. The through openings (12) may have various shapes including circular, rectangular, or multi-angular shapes as best shown in Figure 5. The through openings (12) may be all of the same shape or a mixture of the various different shapes.


A cylindrical sleeve (22) also made of a high temperature noble metal or metal alloy is located within the lower portion of the cylindrical cavity (12) below and abutting the annular partition ring (18). The cylindrical sleeve (22) has an outer diameter equal to the inner diameter of the cylindrical cavity (12) such that it is snugly mounted within the latter. The cylindrical sleeve (22) has an annular shoulder member (23) having an inner opening (24) with a flange extending inwardly and horizontally at a predetermined location from the inner side wall of the cylindrical sleeve (22). The annular shoulder member (23) forms the grounding electrode of the spark plug with the edge of the inner opening (24) located directly spaced from the spark tip (25) of the central electrode (12). The shoulder member (23) separates the inner cavity of the cylindrical sleeve (22) into middle chamber (26) and a lower outer chamber 27 as shown in Figure 3. The middle chamber (26) is located above the grounding electrode and the lower chamber is located below the grounding electrode. The middle chamber (26) communicates with the upper chamber (20) through the through openings (12) in the annular partition ring (18). The spacing between the edge of the inner opening (24) of the grounding electrode and the spark tip (25) of the central electrode (12) provides the spark gap of the spark plug. The center of the inner opening (24) is preferably offset from the vertical longitudinal axis of the central electrode (12) such that the tip (25) is positioned closer to one side edge of the inner opening (24) as best shown in Figures 3, 5 and 6 in order to achieve a more intense spark in operation. The inner opening (24) of the grounding electrode may have various shapes including circular or multi-angular shape as shown in Figures 4 and 5.


The locations of the annular partition ring in the cavity and the grounding electrode in the cylindrical sleeve are determined by the compression ratio of the air and fuel mixture in the combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine in which the spark plug is to be installed, as shown in the following formula:


V3 =

V1 + V2

mm3


in which V1 is the volume of the lower chamber (27) V2 is the volume of the middle chamber (26), V3 is the volume of the upper chamber (20), and is the compression ratio of the air/fuel mixture in the combustion chamber. The rim 28 of the bottom opening of the lower chamber (27) is preferably slanting inwardly and downwardly as shown in Figure 4 to provide a reduced bottom opening which guides and accelerates the ignition flame from the lower chamber (27) into the combustion chamber of the engine.

In operation, initially the air and fuel mixture is injected into the combustion chamber of the combustion engine as well as the lower chamber of the spark plug. The mixture in the lower chamber is ignited by the spark between the central electrode and the ground electrode occurring at the spark gap of the spark plug. Any high temperature unburned materials and/or noxious gases produced in the ignition are mainly confined within the lower chamber of the spark plug. The ignition will cause the air and fuel mixture in the combustion chamber to ignite instantaneously. Subsequent fresh air and fuel mixture injected into the combustion chamber of the engine will force the high temperature waste materials and/or noxious gas, if any, in the lower chamber to rise mainly into the middle chamber and then through the openings of the partition annular ring into the upper chamber of the spark plug. Thus, the components in the combustion chamber of the engine are not subjected to the high temperature of the combustion; and the temperature in the combustion chamber only rises for the short period in the ignition and they are, in fact, cooled by the incoming fresh air and fuel mixture. Thus, it reduces the temperature stress to the engine components. The high temperature waste materials and/or any obnoxious gases are confined within the upper chamber and middle chamber so that they maintain the spark plug at an optimum operating temperature. In this manner, the high temperature is utilized to maintain the optimum temperature of the spark plug to result in a high efficiency in ignition and power output with less fuel consumption and longer engine life.


Since the partition annular ring, the cylindrical sleeve and the central electrode and the grounding electrode are all made of high temperature noble metal or metal alloy, they are not subject to high temperature erosion. Also, cleaning and re-setting of the spark gap are not required.


Only a small amount of the waste materials in the middle chamber and the upper chamber of the spark plug is drawn back into the lower chamber in the subsequent repeated combustion operations and it is being burned and eliminated in the further combustion such that discharge of unburned waste materials from the engine is minimal. Therefore, discharge of pollution to the atmosphere of unburned waste materials from the engine using the present spark plug is negligible.


Product Testing


The Company is currently conducting a multiple of tests in several facilities to validate the ECO Plug technology.   


The result of the Company’s research and testing suggests that using the ECO Plug spark plugs in a vehicle can increase horsepower when compared to more conventional spark plugs, as well as an increase in fuel efficiency. There is also clear evidence of lower emission with the ECO Plug. The Company’s patent pending technology outperformed other plug designs, including some premium spark plugs offered by the major manufacturers. In addition, it is estimated that the ECO Plug may offer that "like-new" performance over time, aide in extending engine life, and make vehicles more eco-friendly.


Results of the initial tests of comparative spark plugs with engine performance at wide-open throttle operation are shown below. Mean results are obtained by analysis of 3 measurements in each point.  


Denso Iridium Power IW20 Standard one-electrode spark plug iridium tipped (diameter 0,4 mm) on the central electrode and with one side electrode (Table 3). The spark gap is formed by central and side electrodes, in the size of 1,1 mm.


Greg1 Experimental multichamber spark plug “Greg1” iridium tipped (diameter 0,4 mm) with the spark gap formed between the central electrode and the housing in section of the nozzle hole of baffle (Table 4).

Table 5: Mean Test Results


Upon completion of the next set of tests, the Company intends to work with a professional engine developer research and development group to tune and work to optimize the ECO Plug results.  The Company will present the independent laboratories’ confirmation of the ECO Plug claims to state and municipal authorities with the intention of receiving the endorsement of these authorities for the use of the ECO Plug.   


After the Company has commenced commercial production of the ECO Plug, it will have the product tested by independent laboratories to confirm all of the claims of efficiency and long life that the Company espouses.  With the affirmation of these claims by recognized independent laboratories, the Company will approach each of the major players in the wholesale marketplace to participate in a test market roll-out.   If the results and technology prove out, there will be opportunities to sell direct to customers, wholesale to large distribution channels, or be an attractive purchase by another larger automotive electronics company in the space.

The following represents the top four market Brand leaders in the high-efficiency spark plug marketplace:


·

Bosch

·

Denso

·

NGK

·

Champion


The top four companies in the industry generate about 61.0% of revenue. Due to significant offshoring and outsourcing to foreign companies, fewer domestic companies are producing spark plugs. As a result, the Spark Plug Manufacturing industry's market share concentration has been rising. Among individual operators, during the five years to 2013, major company Denso's market share is expected to rise from 29.9% of industry revenue in 2008 to 33.5% in 2013. Similarly, major company NGK's market share is estimated to expand from 10.3% in 2008 to 14.3% in 2013.


Although there are several major spark plug manufacturers that serve the world market, none have undertaken any public testing of a product that resembles the ECO Plug in design or performance.

The Company’s common stock is subject to rules adopted by the Commission regulating broker dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks.” Those disclosure rules applicable to “penny stocks” require a broker dealer, prior to a transaction in a “penny stock” not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized list disclosure document prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission. That disclosure document advises an investor that investment in “penny stocks” can be very risky and that the investor’s salesperson or broker is not an impartial advisor but rather paid to sell the shares. The disclosure contains further warnings for the investor to exercise caution in connection with an investment in “penny stocks,” to independently investigate the security, as well as the salesperson with whom the investor is working and to understand the risky nature of an investment in this security. The broker dealer must also provide the customer with certain other information and must make a special written determination that the “penny stock” is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. Further, the rules require that, following the proposed transaction, the broker provide the customer with monthly account statements containing market information about the prices of the securities.


These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for its common stock. Many brokers may be unwilling to engage in transactions in its common stock because of the added disclosure requirements, thereby making it more difficult for stockholders to dispose of their shares.

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect the Company’s plans, estimates and beliefs. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to those discussed below and elsewhere in this annual report.


The Company’s consolidated financial statements are stated in United States Dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.


Overview


The Company was incorporated in the state of Nevada on December 8, 2009, under the name Pristine Solutions, Inc. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Pristine Solutions Limited, was incorporated under the laws of Jamaica. The Company’s original business plan focused on developing a network of sales points for the sale and service of tankless water heaters in Jamaica, through Pristine Solutions Limited. The Company’s aim was to become the first tankless water heater company specializing in tankless-only products to enter the Jamaican market, and the only company in the Jamaican market offering solar-powered tankless water heater products.  As part of its plan, on December 30, 2009, the Company entered into a distribution agreement with Zhongshan Guangsheng Industry Co., Ltd., of China (“Zhongshan”), the manufacturer of the tankless water heaters.   Zhongshan manufactures the tankless water heaters under the brand Gleamous Electric Appliances. 


On August 22, 2012, Christine Buchanan-McKenzie resigned from all positions with the Company, including, but not limited to that of President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer, and a member of the Board of Directors.  The resignation did not involve any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices. On the same day, Mr. Michael Borkowski was appointed as President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer, and the sole member of the Board of Directors of the Company.


On August 23, 2012, the Company and its controlling stockholders entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange”) with Eaton Scientific Systems, Ltd., a Nevada corporation (“ESSL”) and the shareholders of ESSL (the “ESSL Shareholders”), whereby the Company acquired 25,000,000 shares of common stock (100%) of ESSL (the “ESSL Stock”) from the ESSL Shareholders.   In exchange for the ESSL Stock, the Company issued 25,000,000 shares of its common stock to the ESSL Shareholders.  In addition, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Michael J. Borkowski, and the Company’s controlling shareholder and former President, Ms. Christine Buchanan-McKenzie, entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement, whereby Mr. Borkowski would purchase one hundred (100%) percent of the Company’s common shares owned by Mrs. Buchanan-McKenzie, or 240,000,000 shares, at par value $.0001, representing approximately 54.1% of the Company’s total issued and outstanding shares.  The Common Stock Purchase Agreement and Share Exchange, was completed on October 22, 2012.  On October 23, 2012, the Common Stock Purchase Agreement was finalized, and a change in control of the Registrant took place.


In conjunction with the Share Exchange and Common Stock Purchase Agreement, the total shares held by the ESSL Shareholders are 265,000,000, or approximately 59.8% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company as of October 30, 2012.  Certain ESSL shareholders owning a total of 135,779,375 shares of the Company’s common stock, representing approximately 30.64% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company, entered into three (3) separate twenty-four (24) month Lock-Up Agreements.


As a result of the Share Exchange and Common Stock Purchase Agreement, (i) there was a change in control of the Registrant; (ii) ESSL became the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary; and (iii) the ESSL operations will continue as the Company’s primary business. In addition, on November 27, 2012, the Company changed its name to Eaton Scientific Systems, Inc.

In October, 2013, the Company’s Management was introduced to Domenic Marciano (“Marciano”).  Marciano represented that he intended to acquire an exclusive license to a unique automotive product, the EcoFlora Spark Plug, with a proprietary technology, and that EcoFlora has the potential to be uniquely positioned in the automotive parts business in the United States and International automotive parts marketplace.


The Majority Shareholders acknowledge that the Company has not been able to attract investment capital sufficient to execute its business plan because of its Share price.  Further, Management believes that the potential success of the EcoFlora technology could potentially provide value to the Company and its shareholders. As a result, on November 26, 2013, the Company and its Majority Shareholders (the “Majority Stockholders”) entered into an Agreement for the Purchase of Common Stock (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Marciano whereby Marciano acquired 227,370,000 shares of the Company’s common stock from the Majority Stockholders at par value $.0001, representing approximately 51.3% of the Company’s total issued and outstanding shares, in exchange for cash in the amount of $22,737 (the “Cash Proceeds”).  The Stock Purchase Agreement, and subsequent transaction closing, was completed on November 26, 2013, and a change in control of the Company took place.


The Majority Shareholders and the Company’s Management also believe it is in the best interest of the Company’s Shareholders to operate Eaton Scientific Systems, Ltd. (“Eaton Sub”) a Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, as a privately held Company, until such time where it is sufficiently capitalized to increase the probability for its Clinical Trials of Homatropine (“Tropine 3”) in oral suspension for the treatment of hot flash symptoms in pre-menopausal, menopausal and post menopausal women, to be in a position to yield results that may provide the opportunity for a potential FDA approval for marketing to consumers in the US.


In connection with the terms and conditions of the Stock Purchase Agreement and sale of 227,370,000 shares held by the Majority Stockholders:


1.

Marciano appointed two new directors to the Company’s board of directors; and

2.

The “Lock-Up-Leak-Out” Agreements executed in October 2012 were cancelled by mutual agreement between the Board and the Company’s Shareholders who were party to the Agreements.

3.

The Majority Shareholders of the Company have voted to “Spin-out” to its Shareholders, one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Eaton Scientific Systems Ltd., its operating subsidiary, as of the record date of November 25, 2013, on a one-for-one basis within sixty-days (60) of the Change of Control of the Company, or by January 25, 2014.  


On January 9, 2014, the Spin-out was complete, and Eaton Scientific Systems, Ltd. was no longer a subsidiary of the Company.


On February 14, 2014, the Company changed its name to Eco Science Solutions, Inc. (OTCQB.ESSI).


NOTE: The following notes and any further reference made to “the Company”, "we", "us", "our" and "ESSI" shall mean Eco Science Solutions, Inc. (formerly Eaton Scientific Systems, Inc.), unless otherwise indicated.

General and administrative expenses from continuing operations in the amount of $30,410 for the year ended January 31, 2013, were comprised of $30,000 in management and consulting fees,  $410 in transfer agent and filing fees.


General and administrative expenses from continuing operations for the year ended January 31, 2014, were $88,753 as compared to $30,410 for the year ended January 31, 2013, which resulted in an increase in general and administrative expenses for the current period of $58,343.


Significant increases in general and administrative expenses from continuing operations of $58,343, from the year ended January 31, 2014, compared to the year ended January 31, 2013, were attributable to the following items:


·

an increase in legal, accounting and audit fees of $16,554, due to legal fees of $5,054. accounting fees of $4,000 for year-end accounting and tax preparation fees,; and audit fees of $7,500, compared to no expense in the prior year;

·

an increase in management fees of $30,750, due to 12 months of executive compensation, compared to only 5 months of executive compensation for the prior year;  

·

an increase in transfer agent and filing fees of $7,585, due to $7,995 in expense during the current year compared to $410 in the prior year;

·

an increase in office supplies and other general expenses of $3,454, resulting from limited office expenses incurred during the prior year.


General and administrative expenses from continuing operations for the year ended January 31, 2014 and 2013, were incurred primarily for the purpose of advancing the Company closer to its goal of the manufacturing and distribution of its high-efficiency spark plug product.


Net Loss


During the year ended January 31, 2014, the Company incurred a net loss from continuing operations of $7,452,402 compared with a net loss of $253,479 for the year ended January 31, 2013. The increase in net loss of $7,198,923 is attributable to an increase in general and administrative expenses of $58,343; a foreign currency gain of $783 resulting from the transfer of funds from Canada to US; an impairment loss of $5,265,000 incurred in the current year related to the Company’s patent; an increase in interest expense of $14,279, resulting from notes payable issued in the current year, compared to none in the prior year; and an increase in amortization of deferred stock option compensation of $1,862,084, of which $1,195,835 is the result of the accelerated vesting of executive options, and $666,249 is the result of the difference in 12 months of expense for the current year, compared to 3 months of expense in the prior year.

Cash flows from operating activities-continuing operations


During the year ended January 31, 2014, the Company used $14,524 of cash flow for operating activities, compared with $24,000 for the year ended January 31, 2013. The increase in cash used for operating activities of $9,476 is primarily attributable to an increase in the net loss from operations of $7,198,923, an impairment loss of $5,265,000 related to the Company’s patent, an increase on deferred stock compensation amortization of $1,862,084 an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $35,065 and an increase in related party payables of $46,250.


Cash flows from investing activities-continuing operations


During the years ended January 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company used no funds for investing activities.

  

Cash flows from financing activities-continuing operations


During the year ended January 31, 2014, the Company was provided with $38,991 of cash flow from financing activities compared with $250,000 during the year ended January 31, 2013. The decrease in cash flows provided from financing activities of $211,009 is attributable to an increase in related party loans of $38,991, and a decrease in notes payable of $250,000.


Future Financings

 

The Company will require additional financing in order to proceed with its plan of operations, including approximately $1,000,000 over the next 12 months to pay for its ongoing expenses. These cash requirements include working capital, general and administrative expenses, the development of the Company’s product line, and the pursuit of acquisitions. These cash requirements are in excess of the Company’s current cash and working capital resources. Accordingly, the Company will require additional financing in order to continue operations and to repay its liabilities. There is no assurance that any party will advance additional funds to the Company in order to enable the Company to sustain its plan of operations or to repay its liabilities. There can be no assurance that raising the desired amount of financing will enable the Company successfully to complete its plan of operations.


The Company anticipates continuing to rely on equity sales of its common stock in order to continue to fund its business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to the Company’s existing stockholders. There is no assurance that the Company will achieve any additional sales of its equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund its planned business activities.

Personnel

 

As of January 31, 2014, and as of the date of this filing, the Company had no employees, excluding its executive officers and directors.


Contractual Obligations


As a “smaller reporting company”, the Company is not required to provide tabular disclosure obligations.


Going Concern


These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities as a going concern in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated significant revenues to date and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future.  As at January 31, 2014, the Company had a working capital deficit from continuing operations of $90,422, and an accumulated deficit of $7,892,541. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability to raise equity or debt financing, and the attainment of profitable operations from the Company's future business. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


The Company has no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.


Critical Accounting Policies


The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s consolidated audited financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 management’s application of accounting policies. The Company believes that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of the Company’s financial statements is critical to an understanding of its consolidated financial statements.


Development Stage Company

The Company is a development stage company as defined by ASC 915-10-05, “Development Stage Entity.” The Company is still devoting substantially all of its efforts on establishing the business, and its planned principal operations have not commenced.  All losses accumulated, since inception, have been considered as part of the Company’s development stage activities.


Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and 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, 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.


Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. Revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service has been provided, and collectability is reasonably assured.  As of January 31, 2014, no revenue has been recognized, as the Company has not commenced operations.


Stock-Based Compensation

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Share-Based Payments, using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company’s long-lived assets, including intangibles, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical-cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the asset by comparing the undiscounted future net cash flows expected to result from the asset to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flows of the asset, an impairment loss is measured and recognized. An impairment loss is measured as the difference between the net book value and the fair value of the long-lived asset.


Due to the Company’s recurring losses, the costs related to its patents were evaluated for impairment and it was determined that there were no sufficient estimated future cash flows for the recoverability of the asset.  As a result, an impairment loss of $5,265,000 has been recorded for the year ended January 31, 2014.


Discontinued Operations

In accordance with ASC 205-20, Presentation of Financial Statements - Discontinued Operations, the Company reported the results of its former subsidiary, Eaton Scientific Solutions, Ltd. (“Eaton Sub”), as a discontinued operation.


Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

The Company evaluates the pronouncements of various authoritative accounting organizations, primarily the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), the US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”), to determine the impact of new pronouncements on US GAAP and the impact on the Company. The Company has recently adopted the following new accounting standards:

 

Adopted:


Effective January 2012, the Company adopted ASU No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (ASU 2011-04). ASU 2011-04 represents the converged guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) on fair value measurement. A variety of measures are included in the update intended to either clarify existing fair value measurement requirements, change particular principles requirements for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. For many of the requirements, the FASB does not intend to change the application of existing requirements under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASU 2011-04 was effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.


Effective January 2012, the Company adopted ASU No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income (ASU 2011-05). ASU 2011-05 is intended to increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income and to facilitate convergence of accounting guidance in this area with that of the IASB. The amendments require that all non-owner changes in shareholders’ equity be presented in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-12, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05 (ASU 2011-12). ASU 2011-12 defers the provisions of ASU 2011-05 that require the presentation of reclassification adjustments on the face of both the statement of income and statement of other comprehensive income. Amendments under ASU 2011-05 that were not deferred under ASU 2011-12 will be applied retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.


In April 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-07, Presentation of Financial Statements (Top 205): Liquidation Basis of Accounting. The objective of ASU No. 2013-07 is to clarify when an entity should apply the liquidation basis of accounting and to provide principles for the measurement of assets and liabilities under the liquidation basis of accounting, as well as any required disclosures. The amendments in this standard is effective prospectively for entities that determine liquidation is imminent during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, and interim reporting periods therein. The Company is evaluating the effect, if any, the adoption of ASU No. 2013-07 may have on its consolidated financial statements.


Not Yet Adopted:


In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive (ASU 2013-02). This guidance is the culmination of the FASB’s deliberation on reporting reclassification adjustments from accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). The amendments in ASU 2013-02 do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income. However, the amendments require disclosure of amounts reclassified out of AOCI in its entirety, by component, on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes thereto. Amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income must be cross-referenced to other disclosures that provide additional detail. This standard is effective prospectively for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company is evaluating the effect, if any, the adoption of ASU 2013-02 may have on its consolidated financial statements.



Table of Contents

21


In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When Net Operating Loss Carryforward Exists.  The objective of ASU 2013-11 is to reduce diversity in practice by providing guidance on the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits, and will better reflect the manner in which an entity would settle at the reporting date any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position when net operating loss carryforwards, similar tax losses, or tax credit carryforwards exist. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013, and interim reporting periods therein. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect, if any, adoption of ASU No. 2013-11 will have on its consolidated financial statements.


Recently Issued Accounting Standards Updates

There were various updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries. None of the updates are expected to a have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM



To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Eco Science Solutions, Inc.

(A Development Stage Company)


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Eco Science Solutions, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of January 31, 2014 and 2013 and the related statements of income, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended January 31, 2014 and 2013 and since inception on December 8, 2009 through January 31, 2014. Eco Science Solutions, Inc.’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.


We conducted our audits in accordance with the 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. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, 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. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eco Science Solutions, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of January 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related statements of income, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended January 31, 2014 and 2013 and since inception on December 8, 2009 through January 31, 2014 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has no revenues, has negative working capital at January 31, 2014, has incurred recurring losses and recurring negative cash flow from operating activities, and has an accumulated deficit which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 1.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JANUARY 31, 2014 AND 2013


NOTE 1: NATURE OF BUSINESS AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS


The Company was incorporated in the state of Nevada on December 8, 2009 under the name Pristine Solutions, Inc. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Pristine Solutions Limited, was incorporated under the laws of Jamaica. The Company’s original business plan focused on developing a network of sales points for the sale and service of tankless water heaters in Jamaica, through Pristine Solutions Limited. 


On August 22, 2012, Christine Buchanan-McKenzie resigned from all positions with the Company, including, but not limited to that of President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer, and a member of the Board of Directors.  The resignation did not involve any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices. On the same day, Mr. Michael Borkowski was appointed as President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer, and a member of the Board of Directors of the Company.


On August 23, 2012, the Company and its controlling stockholders entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange”) with Eaton Scientific Systems, Ltd., a Nevada corporation (“ESSL”) and the shareholders of ESSL (the “ESSL Shareholders”), whereby the Company acquired 25,000,000 shares of common stock (100%) of ESSL (the “ESSL Stock”) from the ESSL Shareholders.  In exchange for the ESSL Stock, the Company issued 25,000,000 shares of its common stock to the ESSL Shareholders (the “Share Exchange”). 


The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Michael J. Borkowski, and the Company’s controlling shareholder and former President, Ms. Christine Buchanan-McKenzie, entered into a Common Stock Purchase Agreement, whereby Mr. Borkowski would purchase one hundred (100%) percent of the Company’s common shares owned by Mrs. Buchanan-McKenzie, or 240,000,000 shares, at par value $.0001, representing approximately 54.1% of the Company’s total issued and outstanding shares.  The Common Stock Purchase Agreement, and subsequent transaction closing, was completed on October 22, 2012.  On October 23, 2012, the Common Stock Purchase Agreement was finalized, and a change in control of the Company took place.


In conjunction with the Share Exchange and Common Stock Purchase Agreement, the total shares held by the ESSL Shareholders are 265,000,000, or approximately 59.8% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company as of October 30, 2012.  In addition, certain ESSL shareholders owning a total of 135,779,375 shares of the Company’s common stock, representing approximately 30.64% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company, entered into three (3) separate twenty-four (24) month Lock-Up Agreements.


As a result of the Share Exchange and Common Stock Purchase Agreement, (i) there was a change in control of the Company; (ii) ESSL became the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary; and (iii) the ESSL operations continued as its primary business.  In addition, on November 27, 2012, the Company changed its name to Eaton Scientific Systems, Inc.


In October, 2013, the Company’s Management was introduced to Domenic Marciano (“Marciano”).  Marciano represented that he intended to acquire an exclusive license to a unique automotive product, the EcoFlora Spark Plug, with a proprietary technology, and that EcoFlora has the potential to be uniquely positioned in the automotive parts business in the United States and International automotive parts marketplace.


The Majority Shareholders acknowledge that the Company has not been able to attract investment capital sufficient to execute its business plan because of its Share price.  Further, Management believes that the potential success of the EcoFlora technology could potentially provide value to the Company and its shareholders. As a result, on November 26, 2013, the Company and its Majority Shareholders (the “Majority Stockholders”) entered into an Agreement for the Purchase of Common Stock (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Marciano whereby Marciano acquired 227,370,000 shares of the Company’s common stock from the Majority Stockholders at par value $.0001, representing approximately 51.3% of the Company’s total issued and outstanding shares, in exchange for cash in the amount of $22,737 (the “Cash Proceeds”).  The Stock Purchase Agreement, and subsequent transaction closing, was completed on November 26, 2013, and a change in control of the Company took place.


The Majority Shareholders and the Company’s Management also believe it is in the best interest of the Company’s Shareholders to operate Eaton Scientific Systems, Ltd. (“Eaton Sub”) a Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, as a privately held Company, until such time where it is sufficiently capitalized to increase the probability for its Clinical Trials of Homatropine (“Tropine 3”) in oral suspension for the treatment of hot flash symptoms in pre-menopausal, menopausal and post menopausal women, to be in a position to yield results that may provide the opportunity for a potential FDA approval for marketing to consumers in the US.

In connection with the terms and conditions of the Stock Purchase Agreement and sale of 227,370,000 shares held by the Majority Stockholders:


1.

Marciano appointed two new directors to the Company’s board of directors; and

2.

The “Lock-Up-Leak-Out” Agreements executed in October 2012 were cancelled by mutual agreement between the Board and the Company’s Shareholders who were party to the Agreements.

3.

The Majority Shareholders of the Company have voted to “Spin-out” to its Shareholders, one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding shares of Eaton Scientific Systems Ltd., its operating subsidiary, as of the record date of November 25, 2013, on a one-for-one basis within sixty-days (60) of the Change of Control of the Company, or by January 25, 2014.  


On January 9, 2014, the Spin-out was complete, and Eaton Scientific Systems, Ltd. was no longer a subsidiary of the Company.


On February 14, 2014, the Company changed its name to Eco Science Solutions, Inc. (OTCQB.ESSI).


NOTE: The following notes and any further reference made to “the Company”, "we", "us", "our" and "ESSI" shall mean Eco Science Solutions, Inc. (formerly Eaton Scientific Systems, Inc.), unless otherwise indicated.


Headquartered in Miami, Florida, Eco Science Solutions, Inc., a Nevada corporation, is charged with the origination, development and commercialization of innovative aftermarket automotive parts.


On December 4, 2013, the Company (the “Company”) executed an Agreement of the License of Intellectual Property (the “License Agreement”) dated November 4, 2013 with Eco Science Solutions International, Inc., a Canadian corporation (“ESS International”), for the exclusive license to a revolutionary Spark Plug technology, the EcoFlora Spark Plug, that has filed for Patent protection in Canada and the United States based on its "Internal Pre-Combustion Chamber High Efficiency Spark Plug" technology. In connection with the License Agreement, the Company issued ESS International 2,500,000 shares of the Company’s Series “A” Convertible Preferred Stock (“Preferred Stock”), in exchange for the exclusive license of the Patent Applications, in perpetuity.  The Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock at a conversion rate of 10 common shares for each preferred share.


On February 14, 2014, the Company effected a 1000-to-1 reverse stock split.  As a result, the total shares of common stock issued and outstanding was adjusted to 443,001  shares with a par value of $0.10.


On April 4, 2014, the Company received notice from Eco Science Solutions International, Inc. to convert 100% of the Series “A” preferred shares into restricted common shares on a 10 for 1 basis.  As a result, on April 9, 2014, 25,000,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock was issued, of which 19,886,668 shares were issued to the Company’s chairman, Domenic Marciano, and 5,133,332 shares were issued to non-related parties.  Subsequent to the conversion, Eco Science Solutions International, Inc. no longer holds any shares of the Company’s capital stock, and Mr. Marciano holds 20,094,038 shares of the Company’s common stock, which represents 62.13% of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock on a fully diluted basis.


The Company is currently in the testing and development stages, and intends to validate its technology and then and manufacture and sell the technology.


Going Concern

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated significant revenues to date and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future.  As at January 31, 2014, the Company had a working capital deficit from continuing operations of $90,422, and an accumulated deficit of $7,892,541. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability to raise equity or debt financing, and the attainment of profitable operations from the Company's future business. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.


The financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods shown. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.


NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements.  These accounting policies conform to accounting principles, generally accepted in the United States of America, and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.



Table of Contents

F-7


Basis of Presentation

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


Development Stage Company

The Company is a development stage company as defined by ASC 915-10-05, “Development Stage Entity.” The Company is still devoting substantially all of its efforts on establishing the business, and its planned principal operations have not commenced.  All losses accumulated, since inception, have been considered as part of the Company’s development stage activities.


Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to long-lived 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.


Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of January 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had no cash equivalents.


Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of licensing and other direct costs incurred in connection with the license rights of pending patents, and are capitalized and amortized over the shorter of the economic or legal life of the patent.  During the years ended January 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, $5,265,000 and $0 were capitalized to patent development costs.


Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company’s long-lived assets, including intangibles, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical-cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the asset by comparing the undiscounted future net cash flows expected to result from the asset to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flows of the asset, an impairment loss is measured and recognized. An impairment loss is measured as the difference between the net book value and the fair value of the long-lived asset.


Due to the Company’s recurring losses, the costs related to its patents were evaluated for impairment and it was determined that there were no sufficient estimated future cash flows for the recoverability of the asset.  As a result, an impairment loss of $5,265,000 has been recorded for the year ended January 31, 2014.


Fair Value Measurements

Pursuant to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, an entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 and 825 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 and 825 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:


Ÿ

Level 1

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

Ÿ

Level 2

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

Ÿ

Level 3

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


The Companys financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities. Pursuant to ASC 820 and 825, the fair value of cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. Revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service has been provided, and collectability is reasonably assured.  As of January 31, 2014, no revenue has been recognized, as the Company has not commenced operations.


Stock-Based Compensation

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Share-Based Payments, using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.


Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share

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


Discontinued Operations

In accordance with ASC 205-20 and ASU 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements - Discontinued Operations, the Company reported the results of its former subsidiary, Eaton Scientific Solutions, Ltd. (“Eaton Sub”), as a discontinued operation. The application of ASC 205-20 and the adoption of ASU 2014-08 are discussed in Note 3 below.


Comprehensive Loss

ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. As at January 31, 2014, the Company has no items that represent comprehensive loss and, therefore, has not included a schedule of comprehensive loss in the financial statements.


Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

The Company evaluates the pronouncements of various authoritative accounting organizations, primarily the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), the US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”), to determine the impact of new pronouncements on US GAAP and the impact on the Company. The Company has recently adopted the following new accounting standards:

 

Adopted:


Effective January 2012, the Company adopted ASU No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (ASU 2011-04). ASU 2011-04 represents the converged guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) on fair value measurement. A variety of measures are included in the update intended to either clarify existing fair value measurement requirements, change particular principles requirements for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. For many of the requirements, the FASB does not intend to change the application of existing requirements under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASU 2011-04 was effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.


Effective January 2012, the Company adopted ASU No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income (ASU 2011-05). ASU 2011-05 is intended to increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income and to facilitate convergence of accounting guidance in this area with that of the IASB. The amendments require that all non-owner changes in shareholders’ equity be presented in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-12, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05 (ASU 2011-12). ASU 2011-12 defers the provisions of ASU 2011-05 that require the presentation of reclassification adjustments on the face of both the statement of income and statement of other comprehensive income. Amendments under ASU 2011-05 that were not deferred under ASU 2011-12 will be applied retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.



Table of Contents

F-9


In April 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-07, Presentation of Financial Statements (Top 205): Liquidation Basis of Accounting. The objective of ASU No. 2013-07 is to clarify when an entity should apply the liquidation basis of accounting and to provide principles for the measurement of assets and liabilities under the liquidation basis of accounting, as well as any required disclosures. The amendments in this standard is effective prospectively for entities that determine liquidation is imminent during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, and interim reporting periods therein. The Company is evaluating the effect, if any, the adoption of ASU No. 2013-07 may have on its consolidated financial statements.


In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08 Presentation of Financial Statements (Top 205): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosure of Disposals of Components of an Entity.  The objective of ASU No. 2014-08 is to clarify the criteria for determining which disposals can be presented as discontinued operations and also modifies related disclosure requirements. The standard is required to be adopted by public business entities in annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those annual periods.  Early adoption is permitted for new disposals beginning in the first quarter of 2014, provided financial statements have not been issued before the release of this standard.


Not Yet Adopted:


In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive (ASU 2013-02). This guidance is the culmination of the FASB’s deliberation on reporting reclassification adjustments from accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). The amendments in ASU 2013-02 do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income. However, the amendments require disclosure of amounts reclassified out of AOCI in its entirety, by component, on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes thereto. Amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income must be cross-referenced to other disclosures that provide additional detail. This standard is effective prospectively for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company is evaluating the effect, if any, the adoption of ASU 2013-02 may have on its consolidated financial statements.


In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No 2013-11, Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When Net Operating Loss Carryforward Exists.  The objective of ASU 2013-11 is to reduce diversity in practice by providing guidance on the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits, and will better reflect the manner in which an entity would settle at the reporting date any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position when net operating loss carryforwards, similar tax losses, or tax credit carryforwards exist. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013, and interim reporting periods therein. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effect, if any, adoption of ASU No. 2013-11 will have on its consolidated financial statements.


Recently Issued Accounting Standards Updates

There were various updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries. None of the updates are expected to a have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.


NOTE 3: DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

NOTE 4: NOTES AND LOANS PAYABLE-CONVERTIBLE


On January 7, 2013, the Company issued a Convertible Promissory Note in the amount of $250,000 to a non-related party (the “Convertible Note”).  The Convertible Note and accrued interest was subsequently purchased and assigned to another non-related party as part of a Convertible Note Assignment and Purchase Agreement (the “Assignment”) dated August 18, 2013.  The Convertible Note is payable within two years, or by January 31, 2015, accrues interest at a rate of 6% per annum, and is convertible into the Company’s common stock at a rate of $0.003 per share. Interest in the amount of $15,986 and $986 has been accrued as of January 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and is included as an accrued expense on the accompanying balance sheets.

On September 1, 2012, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Michael J. Borkowski (the “2012 Employment Agreement”) to serve as the Company’s President, CEO, and Director. The Employment Agreement was for a term of three (3) years, and included compensation in the amount of $72,000 per year, bonus compensation in the amount of $100,000 contingent upon the Company meeting certain goals, 5,000,000 stock options, and certain other benefits in the event they are offered by the Company in the future. As a result of the change in control of the Company in November 2013, the 5,000,000 stock options granted under the 2012 Employment Agreement became fully vested (see Note 9). As of January 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, $59,000 and $6,000 has been recorded as a related party payable for unpaid compensation.


On November 15, 2013, the Company entered into a new employment agreement with Mr. Michael J.

ITEM 9A.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures


The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s president, chief executive officer and chief financial officer to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, the Company’s management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and the Company’s management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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.


As of January 31, 2014, the end of the Company’s fiscal year covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s president, chief executive officer and chief financial officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, the Company’s president, chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report.


Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting


The Company’s 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 the Company’s 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 management’s authorization and recorded properly to permit the preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company’s management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2014. In making this assessment, the Company’s management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. The Company’s management has concluded that, as of January 31, 2014, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective in providing reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with the Company generally accepted accounting principles. The Company’s management reviewed the results of their assessment with the Company’s Board of Directors.


This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.


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

Changes in Control


In October, 2013, the Company’s Management was introduced to Domenic Marciano (“Marciano”).  Marciano represented that he intended to acquire an exclusive license to a unique automotive product, the EcoFlora Spark Plug, with a proprietary technology, and that EcoFlora has the potential to be uniquely positioned in the automotive parts business in the United States and International automotive parts marketplace.


The Majority Shareholders acknowledge that the Company has not been able to attract investment capital sufficient to execute its business plan because of its Share price.  Further, Management believes that the potential success of the EcoFlora technology could potentially provide value to the Company and its shareholders. As a result, on November 26, 2013, the Company and its Majority Shareholders (the “Majority Stockholders”) entered into an Agreement for the Purchase of Common Stock (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Marciano whereby Marciano acquired 227,370,000 shares of the Company’s common stock from the Majority Stockholders at par value $.0001, representing approximately 51.3% of the Company’s total issued and outstanding shares, in exchange for cash in the amount of $22,737 (the “Cash Proceeds”).  The Stock Purchase Agreement, and subsequent transaction closing, was completed on November 26, 2013, and a change in control of the Company took place.


On February 14, 2014, the Company changed its name to Eco Science Solutions, Inc. (OTCQB.ESSI).


The Company is unaware of any contract or other arrangement or provisions of its Articles or Bylaws the operation of which may at a subsequent date result in a change of control of the Company. There are not any provisions in its Articles or Bylaws, the operation of which would delay, defer, or prevent a change in control of its company.


ITEM 13.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE


Related Party Transactions


None of the directors or executive officers of the Company, nor any person who owned of record or was known to own beneficially more than 5% of the Company’s outstanding shares of its Common Stock, nor any associate or affiliate of such persons or companies, has any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction that has occurred during the year ended January 31, 2014, or in any proposed transaction, which has materially affected or will affect the Company, with the exception of the following:


As of January 31, 2014, related parties are due a total of $97,241, which is comprised of $38,991 in cash loans to the Company, and $58,250 in accrued compensation.


On September 1, 2012, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Michael J. Borkowski (the “2012 Employment Agreement”) to serve as the Company’s President, CEO, and Director. The Employment Agreement was for a term of three years, and included compensation in the amount of $72,000 per year, bonus compensation in the amount of $100,000 contingent upon the Company meeting certain goals, 5,000,000 stock options, and certain other benefits in the event they are offered by the Company in the future. As a result of the change in control of the Company in November 2013, the 5,000,000 stock options granted under the 2012 Employment Agreement became fully vested. As of January 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, $59,000 and $6,000 has been recorded as a related party payable for unpaid compensation.


On November 15, 2013, the Company entered into a new employment agreement with Mr. Michael J. Borkowski (the “2013 Employment Agreement”) to serve under new management as the Company’s President, CEO, and Director. The Employment Agreement, which replaces the 2012 Employment Agreement, is for a term of one year, and includes compensation in the amount of $18,000 per year, compensation for certain travel expenses, and grants to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at par, which vest periodically beginning February 15, 2014, at 100,000 shares per vesting period through November 15, 2014. As of January 31, 2014, $750 has been recorded as prepaid related party compensation.


On November 4, 2013, the Company issued a Promissory Note (the “Note”) in the amount of $22,000 to Eco Science Solutions International, Inc., a company controlled by Domenic Marciano, the Company’s chairman, for cash loans made to the Company.  The Note bears interest at a rate of 5% per annum and is due within ninety (90) days of written demand. As of January 31, 2014, the Note remains unpaid, and no demand has been made.  Interest in the amount of $265 has been accrued as of January 31, 2014, and is included as an accrued expense on the accompanying balance sheets.


On January 31, 2014, the Company issued a Convertible Promissory Note (the “Convertible Note”) in the amount of $16,991 to Eco Science Solutions International, Inc., a company controlled by Domenic Marciano, the Company’s chairman, for cash loans made to the Company.  The Note bears interest at a rate of 5% per annum, is due within twenty-four (24) months, or January 31, 2016, and is convertible into the Company’s common stock at a rate equal to the fair market value on the date of conversion. As of January 31, 2014, the Note remains unpaid, and no demand has been made.  No interest has been accrued as of January 31, 2014.


As of January 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, the Company has accrued $265 and $0 in interest on related party loans.

Director Independence


For purposes of determining director independence, the Company has applied the definitions set out in NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2).  The OTCBB on which shares of Common Stock are quoted does not have any director independence requirements.  The NASDAQ definition of “Independent Officer” means a person other than an Executive Officer or employee of the Company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the Company's Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.  According to the NASDAQ definition, Michael Borkowski is not an independent director of the Company.


ITEM 14.

PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANTS FEES AND SERVICES


The aggregate fees billed or to be billed for the most recently completed fiscal years ended January 31, 2014 and 2013 for professional services rendered by the principal accountant for the audit of its annual financial statements and review of the financial statements included in its 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:

The Company’s board of directors pre-approves all services provided by its 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.


The Company’s board of directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by its independent auditors and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining its independent auditors’ independence.
