Company History

Ethema Health Corporation (formerly known as Greenestone Healthcare Corporation) (the “Company” or “Ethema” or “GreeneStone”), a Colorado corporation was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on April 1, 1993 (“Greenestone” or the “Company”), and is the surviving company of a merger, effective February 1, 1995, between the Company and Nova Natural Resources Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Nova Delaware”). The merger was effectuated solely for the purpose of changing the Company’s domicile from Delaware to Colorado. At all times prior to 2001, the Company was engaged in the oil and gas exploration business. Nova Delaware was the successor entity to Nova Petroleum Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and Power Resources Corporation, a Delaware corporation, which merged in 1986 (“the 1986 Merger”). Prior to the 1986 Merger, Nova Petroleum Corporation and Power Resources Corporation had operated since 1979 and 1972, respectively. In 2001, the Company entered into the electronics business and this business was active in 2001 and 2002, as part of the Torita Group. After 2002, the Company continued with various stages of development in this business until 2010.

 

On April 1, 2010, the Company changed its principal operations from development stage electronics to healthcare services. On March 29, 2010, the Company entered into a one year consulting agreement with Greenestone Clinic Inc., a Canadian corporation (“Greenestone Clinic”), whereby Greenestone Clinic provided consulting services for the Company’s development and operation of medical clinics in the province of Ontario, Canada. Specifically, Greenestone Clinic provided medical and business expertise in the initial startup of private clinics and technical assistance to ensure that the clinics were in compliance with governmental policy and procedure requirements as well as any operational requirements. At the time of entering into this consulting agreement, Greenestone Clinic operated a clinic at the Muskoka property housing its addiction treatment clinic and provided endoscopy services. The Company started offering medical services in June 2010, offering various medical services, including endoscopy, cardiology and executive medicals, which services were subsequently sold.

 

On May 15, 2010, the Company secured a sublease of space (which was previously the Rothbart Pain Clinic) of approximately 8,000 sq. ft. to be used as the Company’s executive offices and to run an endoscopy clinic. The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary GreeneStone Clinic Muskoka Inc. (“GreeneStone Muskoka”), also entered into a lease with the owner of the Muskoka premises on April 1, 2011 and provided mental health and addiction treatment services and operated an in- patient addiction treatment center at this location.

 

Recent Developments

 

On February 14, 2017, GreeneStone completed a series of transactions (referred to collectively as the “Restructuring Transactions”), including a share purchase agreement (the “SPA”) whereby GreeneStone acquired the stock of the company holding the Muskoka Healthcare Clinic real estate, an asset purchase agreement (the “APA”) and lease (the “Lease”) whereby the Company sold all of the Muskoka clinic business assets and leased the clinic building to the buyer, and a real estate purchase agreement and asset purchase agreement whereby GreeneStone purchased the real estate and business assets of Seastone Delray (the “Florida Purchase”).

 

The Stock Purchase Agreement

 

Under the SPA, the Company acquired 100% of the stock of Cranberry Cove Holdings Ltd. (“CCH”) from Leon Developments Ltd. (“Leon Developments”), a company wholly owned by Shawn E. Leon, who is the President, CEO, and CFO of GreeneStone (“Mr. Leon”). CCH owns the real estate on which the Company’s rehabilitation clinic (“the Canadian Rehab Clinic”) in Muskoka, Ontario is located. The total consideration paid by GreeneStone was CDN$3,300,000 (an appraised value of CDN$10,000,000 less the outstanding mortgage loan), which was funded by the assignment to Leon Developments of certain indebtedness owing to GreeneStone in the amount of CDN$659,918, and the issuance of 60,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to Leon Developments, valued at approximately US$0.033 per share (the “Shares”).

The Asset Purchase Agreement and Lease

 

Under the APA, the assets of the Canadian Rehab Clinic were sold by GreeneStone, through its subsidiary, GreeneStone Clinic Muskoka Inc. (the “Rehab Clinic Subsidiary”), to Canadian Addiction Residential Treatment LP (the “Purchaser”), for a total consideration of CDN$10,000,000, plus an additional performance payment of up to CDN$3,000,000 performance payment to be received in 2019 if certain clinic performance metrics are met. The Purchaser completed the sale with cash proceeds to the Company of CDN$10,000,000, of which CDN$1,500,000 will remain in escrow for up to two years to cover indemnities given by the Company. Aside from using the proceeds of the Muskoka clinic asset sale to pay down significant tax debts and operational costs of the Company, the Company also used the proceeds to fund the Florida Purchase.

 

Through the APA, substantially all of the assets of the Rehab Clinic Subsidiary were sold, leaving GreeneStone with only the underlying clinic real estate, which GreeneStone through its newly acquired subsidiary CCH concurrently leased to the Purchaser. The Lease is a triple net lease and provides for a five (5) year primary term with three (3) five year renewal options, annual base rent for the first year at CDN$420,000 with annual increases, an option to tenant to purchase the leased premises and certain first refusal rights.

 

The Florida Purchase

 

On May 17, 2016 Greenstone, through its wholly owned subsidiaries; Seastone Delray Healthcare, LLC (“Seastone”) and Delray Andrews RE, LLC (“Andrews”), both Florida limited liability companies, together with GreeneStone, entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (“Seastone APA”), and a Management Services Agreement (“Management Agreement”), with Seastone of Delray, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“Seastone Delray”) in order to operate and ultimately acquire Seastone Delray’s business of providing addiction treatment health care services (the “Seastone Business”). Also on May 17, 2016, the Company entered into a commercial real estate contract (the “RE Contract”) with Seastone Condominiums of Delray, LLC and 810 Andrews, LLC, both Florida limited liability companies (“the RE Sellers”) to acquire certain real property used to operate the Seastone Business.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreement, the Company operated Seastone Delray’s addiction treatment health care services business (the “Seastone Business”) until it purchased the Business. Immediately after closing on the sale of its Muskoka clinic business, On February 14, 2017, GreeneStone closed on the acquisition of the Seastone Business and real estate assets. The purchase price for the Florida transaction was $6,150,000, which is being funded by a purchase money first mortgage in the amount of $3,000,000 at 5% per annum payable at $15,000 per month for three years; and $3,150,000 in cash. The Seastone Business is now the primary business of GreeneStone and it is being operated through its wholly owned subsidiary Seastone Delray Healthcare, LLC.

 

Corporate Structure

 

At the beginning of the 2016 fiscal year, the Company had one, wholly owned, operating subsidiary, GreeneStone Muskoka. During the year, and in connection with the restructuring transactions discussed above, the Company formed two new subsidiaries, Seastone Delray Healthcare, LLC (“Seastone Delray”) and Delray Andrews RE, LLC (“Delray Andrews”), both Florida limited liability companies

 

Subsequent to year end, the Company’s Restructuring Transactions had the following effect:

 

1.disposed of substantially all of the assets of Greenestone Muskoka;
2.acquired, from Leon Developments, 100% of the stock of Cranberry Cove Holdings Ltd (“Cranberry Cove”), the owner of the real estate which houses the Greenestone Muskoka Clinic, and subsequently leased the clinic real estate to the purchaser of the Greenestone Muskoka assets;

As of December 31, 2016, Ethema Health Corporation had no employees and its subsidiary GreeneStone Clinic Muskoka had approximately 32 employees. Following the restructuring Transactions as of April 12, 2017, the Company had 14 employees.

 

Marketing

 

The addiction treatment business operates as a private pay service. The customers get no government subsidy to attend our treatment facility. The decision to attend the treatment center is made by each individual, making it important to market our services to the individual. There are a large number of mental health professionals that refer to the treatment center and we ensure that we maintain contact with and market to these professionals. Our marketing efforts are long term processes of establishing relationships with relevant professionals and our treatment staff. We use industry specific conferences and functions to network with these professionals.

 

Approximately 70% of our clients are sourced via the Internet. This is the single biggest focus for our marketing team, Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is very important and the Company aggressively seeks the maximum cost/benefit relationships with specialist firms in this field. We believe our marketing efforts are successful and effective.

 

Competition

 

There are hundreds of private paid facilities in the United States and they collectively, represent a major competitor for those with the ability to pay for addiction services. Addiction service facilities in the United States that offer the same level of treatment offered by our Company are generally 50% to 100% more expensive than we are.

 

Environmental Regulations

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

 

In the securities transactions described below, shares were issued pursuant to the exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, afforded the Company under Section 4(a)(2) promulgated thereunder due to the fact that the issuance did not involve a public offering because of the insubstantial number of persons involved in each offering, the size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of shares offered. Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(a) (2) of the Securities Act for these transactions.

 

The following is a summary of the securities transactions during the year ended December 31, 2016:

 

1.The Company issued 1,000,000 common shares valued at $50,000 to a third party in terms of an investor relations consulting agreement entered into on June 17, 2016.

 

2.On December 19, 2016 the Company closed on a private offering (the “Private Offering”) to raise USD$500,000 in capital. Pursuant to the Private Offering, the Company entered into convertible note agreements (the "Series L Convertible Notes" or the "Notes") in exchange for advances to the Company of $469,011 with certain accredited investors (each an “Investor,” and collectively the “Investors”) and a warrant agreement (the “Warrant Agreement”) equal to one Warrant for each dollar of Convertible Note issued. The Convertible Notes and Warrants issued by the Company raised an aggregate principal amount of USD$469,011 as follows: (i) the Company issued eight Notes for a total of USD$469,011 convertible at the option of the Investors into 15,633,709 shares the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”), par value USD$0.01; and (ii) the Company issued 15,633,709 Warrants. Unless otherwise provided for in the Notes, the Notes bear a 0% interest rate and mature six months from the date of issuance. At any time during the term of each of the Notes, each of the Investors may elect to convert the amount owed under a Note to shares of Common Stock of the Company, at a conversion price of USD$0.03 per share of Common Stock. The Warrants entitle each Warrant holder to purchase a single share of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of USD$0.03 per share for each Warrant exercised. The Warrants expire on December 18, 2019. $249,444 of the proceeds raised in the Private Offering has been used to repay in full certain indebtedness of the Company to JMJ Financial. The Company plans to use the balance of the proceeds for its operations.

 

Penny Stock

 

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a market price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains a description of the broker’s or dealer’s duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation of such duties or other requirements of the securities laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type size and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.

 

The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statement showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account.

 

In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement as to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.

 

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity for our common stock. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling our securities.

This annual report on Form 10-K and other reports filed by Greenestone Healthcare Corp. (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) from time to time with the SEC contain or may contain forward-looking statements and information that are based upon beliefs of, and information currently available to, the Company’s management as well as estimates and assumptions made by Company’s management. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are only predictions and speak only as of the date hereof. When used in the filings, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions as they relate to the Company or the Company’s management identify forward- looking statements. Such statements reflect the current view of the Company with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other factors. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended, or planned.

 

Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, the Company does not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

 

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments, and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates, judgments, and assumptions are made. These estimates, judgments, and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Our financial statements would be affected to the extent there are material differences between these estimates. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and accompanying notes to the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Through the APA, substantially all of the assets of the Rehab Clinic Subsidiary were sold, leaving GreeneStone with only the underlying clinic real estate, which GreeneStone through its newly acquired subsidiary CCH concurrently leased to the Purchaser. The Lease is a triple net lease and provides for a five (5) year primary term with three (3) five year renewal options, annual base rent for the first year at CDN$420,000 with annual increases, an option to tenant to purchase the leased premises and certain first refusal rights.

 

The Florida Purchase

 

Immediately after closing on the sale of its Muskoka clinic business, GreeneStone closed on the acquisition of the business and real estate assets of Seastone Delray pursuant to certain real estate and asset purchase agreements This business will be operated through its wholly owned subsidiary Seastone. The purchase price for the Seastone assets was US$6,150,000 financed with a purchase money mortgage of US$3,000,000, and US$3,150,000 in cash.

 

Results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015.

 

The company sold its Greenestone Muskoka Treatment Center effective February 17, 2017, simultaneously with the purchase of the assets and real estate of an addiction treatment center in Delray Beach, Florida. The disposal of the Greenestone Muskoka Treatment Center has been reflected as a discontinued operation in the financial statements as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and the results of operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

 

Revenue

 

We had no revenues for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, due the disposal of the Greenestone Muskoka Treatment Center, effective February 17, 2017. The revenue of the Greenestone Muskoka Treatment Center has been reflected as a discontinued operation in these financial statements.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses totaled $790,880 and $450,221 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, an increase of $340,659 or 75.7%. The increase in operating expenses is attributable to:

 

·General and administrative expenses of $144,536 and $55,577 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, increased by $88,959 or 160.1%, primarily due to $57,100 incurred in investor relations expenditure during the current year and travel expenditure of $21,305 incurred primarily on the Seastone transaction.
·Management fees of $257,283 and $97,152 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, increased by $160,131 or 164.8%, primarily due to a temporary reduction in the charge in the prior year.
·Professional fees of $249,395 and $297,492 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, decreased by $48,097 or 16.2%, primarily due to audit fees incurred in the prior year and a marketing related expense which was not incurred in the current year.
·Salaries and wages of $139,666 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, increased by $139,666 or 100%, primarily due to salaries related to the holding company operations previously being expensed through the operating subsidiaries. These expenses were recorded at the holding company level during the current year and represent administrative salaries.

Operating loss

 

The operating loss totaled $790,880 and $450,221 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, an increase of $340,659 or 75.7%. The increase is attributable to the movement in operating expenses discussed above.

 

Other income

 

Other income of $72,508 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, represents the proceeds related to the sale of certain oil rights which belonged to the Company prior to changing its operations to that of drug rehabilitation and treatment centers.

 

Other expense

 

Other expense of $156,387 and $427,298 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively consists primarily of expenses incurred in operating the Seastone of Delray Clinic, in terms of a management agreement, prior to its acquisition on February 14, 2017 and in the prior year we recognized a provision for a receivable on the sale of the endoscopy clinic as there were no payments received in accordance with the agreement or any payments received as of the date hereof.

 

Interest expense

 

Interest expense of $29,504 and $19,580 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, an increase of $9,924 or 50.7% was primarily due to the short term convertible note advanced to the Company during the current year and repaid before year end.

 

Debt discount

 

A Debt discount of $93,244 was recognized on a convertible loan agreement entered into during the current year.

 

Foreign exchange movements

 

Foreign exchange movements of $811 and $(97,858) for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, represents the realized exchange gains and (losses) on monetary assets and liabilities settled during the current year as well as mark to market adjustments on monetary assets and liabilities reflected on the balance sheet and denominated in Canadian Dollars. The movement is a function of the exchange rate for the year, during the prior year the exchange rate was more volatile and experienced a general deterioration against the Dollar, the exchange rate has been more stable during the current year.

 

Net income (loss) from discontinued operations

 

The net income (loss) from discontinued operations of $735,987 and $(160,219) for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, an increase of $896,206 or 559.4% was primarily due an increase in the number of patients treated at the facility, predominantly from various Canadian Government departments. The Greenestone Muskoka Treatment facility located in Ontario was disposed of on February 14, 2017 and had therefore been treated as a discontinued operation in these financial statements.

 

Net loss

 

Net loss of $260,709 and $1,155,176 for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, a decrease of $894,467 or 77.4%, primarily due to the increase in operating expenses, offset by the improvement in the results of the discontinued operations prior to its disposal and the prior year loss on write down of loans advanced by the Company on the sale of its Endoscopy clinic.

Contingency related to outstanding payroll tax liabilities:

 

The Company was delinquent in filing previous payroll tax returns resulting in taxes, interest and penalties payable at December 31, 2016 and 2015. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015 as part of Taxes Payable, the Company has payroll tax liabilities and GST liabilities of approximately $2,548,824 and $2,290,506, respectively, due to various taxing authorities on the consolidated balance sheets. These Tax liabilities were settled upon the disposal of the Greenestone Treatment Center. The remaining liability of approximately $250,000 relates to the nonfiling of certain foreign assets forms due to the US Federal Government. This issue is currently being addressed.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The following table summarizes working capital at December 31, 2016, compared to December 31, 2015.

 

  December 31,   December 31,   Increase
2016   2015   (Decrease)
         
Current assets $ 275,575   $ 219,519   $ 56,056
Current liabilities (3,637,111)   (3,415,437)   (221,674)
           
  $   (3,361,536)   $   (3,195,918)   $ (165,618)

 

Subsequent to year end, on February 17, 2017, the Company sold its Greenestone Muskoka Treatment Center for gross proceeds of CDN$10,000,000 of which CDN$1,500,000 remains in escrow should it be required to satisfy certain warranties provided in the sale agreements relating to the facility. The proceeds were used to settle the outstanding tax liabilities of the Company and to acquire a treatment facility in Delray Beach, Florida.

 

Over the next twelve months we estimate that the company will require $1.0 million in working capital as it develops its Seastone of Delray business. The company may have to raise equity or secure debt. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful with future financing ventures, and the inability to secure such financing may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition. In the opinion of management, the Company’s liquidity risk is assessed as medium, a change from the prior years, high risk assessment, due to the settlement of the outstanding tax liabilities mentioned above.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Ethema Health Corporation

(formerly known as Greenestone Healthcare Corporation)

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Ethema Health Corporation (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and the related consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive loss, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the two years in the period ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Ethema Health Corporation as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the two years in the period ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has sustained net losses and has a working capital and stockholder’s deficit. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regards to these matters are also described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

(formerly known as Greenstone Healthcare Corporation)

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1.Nature of Business

 

Ethema Health Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the state of Colorado, USA, on April 1, 1993. Effective April 4, 2017, the Company changed its name to Ethema Health Corporation and prior to that, on May 2012, the Company had changed its name to Greenestone Healthcare Corporation from Nova Natural Resources Corporation. As at December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company owns 100% of the outstanding shares of Greenestone Clinic Muskoka Inc., which was incorporated in 2010 under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada. Greenestone Clinic Muskoka Inc. provides medical services to various patients in a clinic located in the regional municipality of Muskoka.

 

On May 17, 2016 Greenstone, through its newly formed, wholly owned subsidiaries; Seastone Delray Healthcare, LLC (“Seastone”) and Delray Andrews RE, LLC (“Andrews”), both Florida limited liability companies, entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (“Seastone APA”), a Commercial Real estate contract (“RE Contract”), and a Management Services Agreement (“Management Agreement”), with Seastone of Delray, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“Seastone Delray”).

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Seastone APA, the Company would purchase Seastone Delray’s business, which is primarily the practice of providing addiction treatment health care services (the “Business”), and substantially all the assets used in connection with the Business and other assets in which Seastone Delray has any right, title or interest, except those certain assets specifically excluded in the Seastone APA.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreement, the Company would have the right to operate Seastone Delray’s Business for 90 days commencing on June 15, 2016 or earlier if the Company waives the Due Diligence Period (the “Management Period”). During the Management Period, the Company is entitled to the revenues from the Business and will pay Seastone Delray $20,000 per month to cover certain costs related to the Business, which shall increase to $28,000 per month if the Management Agreement is extended beyond 90 days. The Management Agreement may be terminated by either party if the Purchase Agreement did not close by September 15, 2016.

 

Also on May 17, 2016, the Company entered into a commercial real estate contract (the “RE Contract”) with Seastone Condominiums of Delray, LLC and 810 Andrews, LLC, both Florida limited liability companies (“the RE Sellers”). Pursuant to the RE Contract, the Company would acquire certain real property, and, prior to the closing, intends to assign the RE Contract to Andrews.

 

The purchase price for the Transaction was $6,150,000, which was being funded by a purchase money first mortgage in the amount of $3,000,000 at 5% per annum payable at $15,000 per month for three years; and $3,150,000 in cash.

 

On February 14, 2017, GreeneStone completed a series of transactions (referred to collectively as the “Restructuring Transactions”), including a share purchase agreement (the “SPA”) whereby GreeneStone acquired the stock of the company holding the Muskoka Healthcare Clinic real estate, an asset purchase agreement (the “APA”) and lease (the “Lease”) whereby the Company sold all of the Muskoka clinic business assets and leased the clinic building to the buyer, and a real estate purchase agreement and asset purchase agreement whereby the Company purchased the real estate and business assets of Seastone Delray (the “Florida Purchase”).

 

The Stock Purchase Agreement

 

Under the SPA, the Company acquired 100% of the stock of Cranberry Cove Holdings Ltd. (“CCH”) from Leon Developments Ltd. (“Leon Developments”), a company wholly owned by Shawn E. Leon, who is the President, CEO, and CFO of GreeneStone (“Mr. Leon”). CCH owns the real estate on which the Company’s rehabilitation clinic (“the Canadian Rehab Clinic”) in Muskoka, Ontario is located. The total consideration paid by GreeneStone was CDN$3,300,000 (an appraised value of CDN$10,000,000 less the outstanding mortgage loan), which was funded by the assignment to Leon Developments of certain indebtedness owing to GreeneStone in the amount of CDN$659,918, and the issuance of 60,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to Leon Developments, valued at approximately US$0.033 per share (the “Shares”).

The Asset Purchase Agreement and Lease

 

Under the APA, the assets of the Canadian Rehab Clinic were sold by GreeneStone, through its subsidiary, GreeneStone Clinic Muskoka Inc. (“Muskoka”), to Canadian Addiction Residential Treatment LP (the “Purchaser”), for a total consideration of CDN$10,000,000, plus an additional performance payment of up to CDN$3,000,000 as a performance payment to be received in 2019 if certain clinic performance metrics are met. The Purchaser completed the sale with cash proceeds to the Company of CDN$10,000,000, of which CDN$1,500,000 will remain in escrow for up to two years to cover indemnities given by the Company. The proceeds of the Muskoka clinic asset sale were used to pay down certain tax debts and operational costs of the Company and to fund the Florida Purchase, mentioned below.

 

Through the APA, substantially all of the assets of the Rehab Clinic Subsidiary were sold, leaving GreeneStone with only the underlying clinic real estate, which GreeneStone through its newly acquired subsidiary CCH concurrently leased to the Purchaser. The Lease is a triple net lease and provides for a five (5) year primary term with three (3) five year renewal options, annual base rent for the first year at CDN$420,000 with annual increases, an option to tenant to purchase the leased premises and certain first refusal rights,.

 

The Florida Purchase

 

Immediately after closing on the sale of its Muskoka clinic business, GreeneStone closed on the acquisition of the business and real estate assets of Seastone Delray pursuant to certain real estate and asset purchase agreements This business will be operated through its wholly owned subsidiary Seastone. The purchase price for the Seastone assets was US$6,150,000 financed with a purchase money mortgage of US$3,000,000, and US$3,150,000 in cash.

 

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

a)Financial Reporting

 

The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Revenues and expenses are reported on the accrual basis, which means that income is recognized as it is earned and expenses are recognized as they are incurred.

 

Management further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting control and preventing and detecting fraud. The Company's system of internal accounting control is designed to assure, among other items, that i) recorded transactions are valid; ii) valid transactions are recorded; and iii) transactions are recorded in the proper period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the respective periods being presented.

 

b)Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

c)Principals of consolidation and foreign currency translation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiary. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation

 

The Company’s subsidiary’s functional currency was the Canadian dollar, while the Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. All transactions initiated in Canadian dollars are translated into US dollars in accordance with ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Translation” as follows:

 

Monetary assets and liabilities at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date.
Equity at historical rates.
Revenue and expense items at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the period.

 

Adjustments arising from such translations are deferred until realization and are included as a separate component of stockholders’ deficit as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. Therefore, translation adjustments are not included in determining net income (loss) but reported as other comprehensive income (loss).

 

For foreign currency transactions, the Company translates these amounts to the Company’s functional currency at the exchange rate effective on the invoice date. If the exchange rate changes between the time of purchase and the time actual payment is made, a foreign exchange transaction gain or loss results which is included in determining net income for the period.

 

The relevant translation rates are as follows: For the year ended December 31, 2016 a closing rate of CAD$1.0000 equals US$0.7448 and an average exchange rate of CAD$1.0000 equals US$0.7555.

 

d)Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue from the rendering of services when they are earned; specifically, when all of the following conditions are met:

 

the significant risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to customers and the Company retains neither continuing involvement nor effective control;
there is clear evidence that an arrangement exists;
the amount of revenue and related costs can be measured reliably; and
it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Company.

 

In particular, the Company recognizes:

 

Fees for out-patient counselling, coaching, intervention, psychological assessments and other related services when patients receive the service; and
Fees for in-patient addiction treatments proportionately over the term of the patient’s treatment.

 

Deferred revenue represents monies deposited by the patients for future services to be provided by the Company. Such monies will be recognized into revenue as the patient progresses through their treatment term.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

e)Non-monetary transactions

 

The Company’s policy is to measure an asset exchanged or transferred in a non-monetary transaction at the more reliable measurement of the fair value of the asset given up and the fair value of the asset received, unless:

 

The transaction lacks commercial substance;
The transaction is an exchange of a product or property held for sale in the ordinary course of business for a product or property to be sold in the same line of business to facilitate sales to customers other than the parties to the exchange;
Neither the fair value of the asset received nor the fair value of the asset given up is reliably measurable; or
The transaction is a non-monetary, non-reciprocal transfer to owners that represents a spin-off or other form of restructuring or liquidation.

 

f)Cash and cash equivalents

 

The Company's policy is to disclose bank balances under cash, including bank overdrafts with balances that fluctuate frequently from being positive to overdrawn and term deposits with a maturity period of three months or less from the date of acquisition.

 

The Company has $74,480 (CAD$100,000) in restricted cash held by their bank to cover against the possibility of credit card charge backs, for services not performed.

 

g)Accounts receivable

 

The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts. The Company's estimate is based on historical collection experience and a review of the current status of trade accounts receivable. It is reasonably possible that the Company’s estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts will change. At December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company has a $0 and $0 allowance for doubtful accounts, respectively.

 

h)Financial instruments

 

The Company initially measures its financial assets and liabilities at fair value, except for certain non-arm's length transactions. The Company subsequently measures all its financial assets and financial liabilities at amortized cost.

 

Financial assets measured at amortized cost include cash and accounts receivable.

 

Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost include bank indebtedness, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, harmonized sales tax payable, withholding taxes payable, convertible notes payable, loans payable and related party notes.

 

Financial assets measured at cost are tested for impairment when there are indicators of impairment. The amount of the write-down is recognized in net income. The previously recognized impairment loss may be reversed to the extent of the improvement, directly or by adjusting the allowance account, provided it is no greater than the amount that would have been reported at the date of the reversal had the impairment not been recognized previously. The amount of the reversal is recognized in net income. The Company recognizes its transaction costs in net income in the period incurred. However, financial instruments that will not be subsequently measured at fair value are adjusted by the transaction costs that are directly attributable to their origination, issuance or assumption.

 

FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

 

The Company does not have assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2016 and 2015. The Company did not have any fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis during the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

i)Plant and equipment

 

Fixed assets are recorded at cost. Depreciation is calculated on the declining balance method at the following annual rates:

 

Computer Equipment 30%
Computer Software 100%
Furniture and Equipment 30%
Medical Equipment 25%
Vehicles 30%

 

Leasehold improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over the term of the lease. Half rates are used for all fixed assets in the year of acquisition.

 

j)Leases

 

Leases are classified as either capital or operating leases. Leases that transfer substantially all of the benefits and inherent risks of ownership of property to the Company are accounted for as capital leases. At the time a capital lease is entered into, an asset is recorded together with its related long-term obligation to reflect the acquisition and financing. Equipment recorded under capital leases is amortized on the same basis as described above. Payments under operating leases are expensed as incurred.

 

k)Income taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes”. Under ASC Topic 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred income taxes are provided using the liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities. The tax basis of an asset or liability is the amount attributed to that asset or liability for tax purposes. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period of change. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion of, or all of, the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

ASC Topic 740 contains a twostep approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The first step is to determine if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained in an audit, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued on unrecognized tax benefits within general and administrative expense. To the extent that accrued interest and penalties do not ultimately become payable, amounts accrued will be reduced and reflected as a reduction in general and administrative expenses in the period that such determination is made. The tax returns for fiscal 2001, through 2016 are subject to audit or review by the US tax authorities, whereas fiscal 2010 through 2016 are subject to audit or review by the Canadian tax authority.

 

l)Loss per share information

 

FASB ASC 260-10, “Earnings Per Share” provides for calculation of "basic" and "diluted" earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity similar to fully diluted earnings per share. The effect of computing diluted loss per share is anti-dilutive and, as such, basic and diluted loss per share is the same for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

m)Stock based compensation

 

ASC 718-10 "Compensation Stock Compensation" prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all stockbased payments awarded to employees, including employee stock options, restricted stock, employee stock purchase plans and stock appreciation rights that may be classified as either equity or liabilities. The Company should determine if a present obligation to settle the sharebased payment transaction in cash or other assets exists. A present obligation to settle in cash or other assets exists if: (a) the option to settle by issuing equity instruments lacks commercial substance or (b) the present obligation is implied because of an entity's past practices or stated policies. If a present obligation exists, the transaction should be recognized as a liability; otherwise, the transaction should be recognized as equity.

 

The Company accounts for stockbased compensation issued to nonemployees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505- 50 "Equity Based Payments to NonEmployees". Measurement of sharebased payment transactions with nonemployees shall be based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The fair value of the sharebased payment transaction should be determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date.

 

n)Derivatives

 

The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” to determine whether the embedded conversion feature should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. The Company uses a BlackScholes Option Pricing model to estimate the fair value of convertible debt conversion features at the end of each applicable reporting period. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives during each reporting period are included in the statements of operations. Inputs into the BlackScholes Option Pricing model require estimates, including such items as estimated volatility of the Company’s stock, riskfree interest rate and the estimated life of the financial instruments being fair valued.

 

If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument is evaluated under ASC 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options” for consideration of any beneficial conversion feature.

 

o)Recent accounting pronouncements

 

In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-01, which amends the guidance in U.S. GAAP on the classification and measurement of financial instruments. Changes to the current guidance primarily affect the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, the ASU clarifies guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on availableforsale debt securities. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and upon adoption, an entity should apply the amendments by means of a cumulativeeffect adjustment to the balance sheet at the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. Early adoption is not permitted except for the provision to record fair value changes for financial liabilities under the fair value option resulting from instrumentspecific credit risk in other comprehensive income. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02, which amends the guidance in U.S. GAAP on accounting for operating leases, a lessee will be required to recognize assets and liabilities for operating leases with lease terms of more than 12 months on the balance sheet. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and upon adoption, an entity should apply the amendments by means of a cumulativeeffect adjustment to the balance sheet at the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

o)Recent accounting pronouncements (continued)

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update (ASU) “ASU 2016 – 09 Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting” which is intended to improve the accounting for employee share-based payments. The ASU simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including; the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and the classification on the statement of cash flows. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and upon adoption, an entity should apply the amendments by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet at the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

 

In April 2016, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update (ASU) “ASU 2016 – 10 Revenue from Contract with Customers: identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing”. The amendments in this Update clarify the two following aspects (a) contracts with customers to transfer goods and services in exchange for consideration and (b) determining whether an entity’s promise to grant a license provides a customer with either a right to use the entity’s intellectual property (which is satisfied at a point in time) or a right to access the entity’s intellectual property (which is satisfied over time). The amendments in this Update are intended to reduce the degree of judgement necessary to comply with Topic 606. This guidance has no effective date as yet. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." ASU 2016-13 will replace the current incurred loss approach with an expected loss model for instruments measured at amortized cost and require entities to record allowances for available-for-sale debt securities rather than reduce the carrying amount under the current other-than-temporary impairment model. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for all entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods therein. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, "Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments." ASU 2016-15 is intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

 

In October 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. (“ASU”) 2016-16, "IntraEntity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory." ASU 2016-16 requires immediate recognition of income tax consequences of intercompany asset transfers, other than inventory transfers. Existing GAAP prohibits recognition of income tax consequences of intercompany asset transfers whereby the seller defers any net tax effect and the buyer is prohibited from recognizing a deferred tax asset on the difference between the newly created tax basis of the asset in its tax jurisdiction and its financial statement carrying amount as reported in the consolidated financial statements. ASU 2016-16 specifically excludes from its scope intercompany inventory transfers whereby the recognition of tax consequences will take place when the inventory is sold to third parties. ASU 2016-16 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period for which financial statements have not been issued or made available for issuance. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

 

In October 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. (“ASU”) 2016-17, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. Upon the effective date of Update 2015-02, a single decision maker of a variable interest entity (VIE) is required to consider indirect economic interests in the entity held through related parties on a proportionate basis when determining whether it is the primary beneficiary of that VIE unless the single decision maker and its related parties are under common control. If a single decision maker and its related parties are under common control, the single decision maker is required to consider indirect interests in the entity held through those related parties to be the equivalent of direct interests in their entirety. The Board is issuing this Update to amend the consolidation guidance on how a reporting entity that is the single decision maker of a VIE should treat indirect interests in the entity held through related parties that are under common control with the reporting entity when determining whether it is the primary beneficiary of that VIE. The primary beneficiary of a VIE is the reporting entity that has a controlling financial interest in a VIE and, therefore, consolidates the VIE. A reporting entity has an indirect interest in a VIE if it has a direct interest in a related party that, in turn, has a direct interest in the VIE. As part of a separate initiative, the Board will consider whether other changes to the consolidation guidance for common control arrangements are necessary. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on its financial statements.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

o)Recent accounting pronouncements (continued)

 

In November 2016, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. (“ASU”) 2016-18, Topic 230, Statement of Cash Flows. Entities classify transfers between cash and restricted cash as operating, investing, or financing activities, or as a combination of those activities, in the statement of cash flows. ] The amendments in this Update apply to all entities that have restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents and are required to present a statement of cash flows under Topic 230. The amendments in this Update require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this Update do not provide a definition of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this Update should be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on its financial statements.

 

In December 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. (“ASU”) 2016-19, Technical Corrections and Improvements. Several topics are amended:

 

1.The amendment to Subtopic 350-40, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other— InternalUse Software, adds a reference to guidance to use when accounting for internaluse software licensed from third parties that is within the scope of Subtopic 350-40. The transition guidance for that amendment is the same as the transition guidance in Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-05, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other— InternalUse Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Fees Paid in a Cloud Computing Arrangement, to which the amendment relates. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on its financial statements.
2.The amendment to Subtopic 360-20, Property, Plant, and Equipment— Real Estate Sales, corrects the guidance to include the final decision of the EITF that loans insured under the Federal Housing Administration and the Veterans Administration do not have to be fully insured by those governmentinsured programs to recognize profit using the full accrual method. The transition guidance for that amendment must be applied prospectively because it could potentially involve the use of hindsight that includes fair value measurements. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on its financial statements.
3.The amendment to Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, clarifies the difference between a valuation approach and a valuation technique when applying the guidance in that Topic. That amendment also requires an entity to disclose when there has been a change in either or both a valuation approach and/or a valuation technique. The transition guidance for the amendment must be applied prospectively because it could potentially involve the use of hindsight that includes fair value measurements. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on its financial statements.
4.The amendment to Subtopic 405-40, Liabilities—Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements, which clarifies that for an amount of an obligation under an arrangement to be considered fixed at the reporting date, the amount that must be fixed is not the amount that is the entity’s portion of the obligation but, rather, is the obligation in its entirety. The transition guidance for that amendment must be applied prospectively because it could potentially involve the use of hindsight that includes fair value measurements. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on its financial statements.
5.The amendment to Subtopic 860-20, Transfers and Servicing—Sales of Financial Assets, aligns implementation guidance in paragraph 860-20- 55-41 with its corresponding guidance in paragraph 860-20-25-11. That amendment clarifies the considerations that should be included in an analysis to determine whether a transferor once again has effective control over transferred financial assets. The transition guidance for that amendment must be applied prospectively because it could potentially involve the use of hindsight that includes fair value measurements. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on its financial statements.
6.The amendment to Subtopic 860-50, Transfers and Servicing—Servicing Assets and Liabilities, adds guidance that existed in AICPA Statement of 5 Position 01-6, Accounting by Certain Entities (Including Entities with Trade Receivables) That Lend to or Finance the Activities of Others, on the accounting for the sale of servicing rights when the transferor retains loans that was omitted from the Accounting Standards Codification. The transition guidance for the amendment must be applied prospectively because it could potentially involve the use of hindsight that includes fair value measurements. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material impact on its financial statements.

o)Recent accounting pronouncements (continued)

 

In November 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. (“ASU”) 2016-20, an amendment to Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). This ASU addressed several areas related to contracts with customers. This topic is not yet effective and will become effective with Topic 606. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. (“ASU”) 2017-02, an amendment to Topic 805, Business Combinations. The amendments in this Update clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The amendments in this Update affect all reporting entities that must determine whether they have acquired or sold a business. The amendments in this Update provide a more robust framework to use in determining when a set of assets and activities is a business. The amendments in this Update apply to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The amendments in this Update should be applied prospectively on or after the effective date. No disclosures are required at transition. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. (“ASU”) 2017-04, an amendment to Topic 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, an entity no longer will determine goodwill impairment by calculating the implied fair value of goodwill by assigning the fair value of a reporting unit to all of its assets and liabilities as if that reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. Because these amendments eliminate Step 3 2 from the goodwill impairment test, they should reduce the cost and complexity of evaluating goodwill for impairment. An entity should apply the amendments in this Update on a prospective basis. The amendments in this Update are effective for Goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

 

In February 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. (“ASU”) 2017-05, an amendment to Subtopic 610-20, Other Income— Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets The amendments in this Update are required for public business entities and other entities that have goodwill reported in their financial statements, under the amendments in this Update, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. The amendments in this Update modify the concept of impairment from the condition that exists when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value to the condition that exists when the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value. An entity no longer will determine goodwill impairment by calculating the implied fair value of goodwill by assigning the fair value of a reporting unit to all of its assets and liabilities as if that reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. An entity should apply the amendments in this Update on a prospective basis. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

 

Any new accounting standards, not disclosed above, that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption.

2.       Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

q)Financial instruments Risks

 

The Company is exposed to various risks through its financial instruments. The following analysis provides a measure of the Company’s risk exposure and concentrations at the balance sheet date, December 31, 2016 and 2015.

i.Credit risk

 

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. Financial instruments that subject the Company to credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable.

 

Credit risk associated with accounts receivable of Greenestone Clinic Muskoka Inc. is mitigated due to balances from many customers, as well as through credit checks and frequent reviews of receivables to ensure timely collection. In addition, there is no concentration risk with the Greenestone Clinic Muskoka Inc. accounts receivable balance since balances are due from many customers.

 

In the opinion of management, credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is assessed as low, not material and remains unchanged from the prior year.

 

ii.Liquidity risk

 

Liquidity risk is the risk the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company is exposed to liquidity risk through its working capital deficiency of $(3,361,536) and accumulated deficit of $(20,981,914). As disclosed in note 3, the Company will be dependent upon the raising of additional capital in order to implement its business plan. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful with future financing ventures, and the inability to secure such financing may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition. In the opinion of management, liquidity risk is assessed as high, material and remains unchanged from the prior year.

 

iii.Market risk

 

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises of three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk, and other price risk. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk and currency risk.

 

iv.Interest rate risk

 

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its bank indebtedness as there is a balance of $56,116 at December 31, 2016. This liability is based on floating rates of interest that have been stable during the current reporting period. In the opinion of management, interest rate risk is assessed as low, not material and remains unchanged from the prior year.

 

v.Currency risk

 

Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company is subject to currency risk as its subsidiaries operate in Canada and are subject to fluctuations in the Canadian dollar. Most of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities are denominated in Canadian dollars. Based on the net exposures at December 31, 2016, a 5% depreciation or appreciation of the Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar would result in an approximate $49,835 increase or decrease in the Company’s aftertax net loss from continuing operation. The Company has not entered into any hedging agreements to mediate this risk. In the opinion of management, currency risk is assessed as low, material and remains unchanged from the prior year.

 

vi.Other price risk

 

Other price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk), whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual financial instrument or its issuer, or factors affecting all similar financial instruments traded in the market. In the opinion of management, the Company is not exposed to this risk and remains unchanged from the prior year.

3Going Concern

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations in the normal course of business. As at December 31, 2016 the Company has a working capital deficiency of $(3,361,536) and accumulated deficit of $(20,981,914). Subsequent to year end, on February 14, 2017, the Company sold its Greenestone Muskoka Treatment Center and out of the proceeds therefrom settled the outstanding payroll and GST tax liabilities and used the remaining proceeds to acquire the Seastone of Delray business, an alcohol and drug rehabilitation and treatment center located in Delray Beach, Florida. Management believes that current available resources will not be sufficient to fund the restructured Company’s planned expenditures, over the next 12 months. Accordingly, the Company will be dependent upon the raising of additional capital through placement of common shares, and, or debt financing in order to implement its business plan, and, or generating sufficient revenue in excess of costs. If the Company raises additional capital through the issuance of equity securities or securities convertible into equity, stockholders will experience dilution, and such securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the holders of common stock or convertible senior notes. If the Company raises additional funds by issuing debt, the Company may be subject to limitations on its operations, through debt covenants or other restrictions. If the Company obtains additional funds through arrangements with collaborators or strategic partners, the Company may be required to relinquish its rights to certain geographical areas, or techniques that it might otherwise seek to retain. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful with future financing ventures, and the inability to secure such financing may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue operations.

 

These factors create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability or classification of recorded assets and liabilities or other adjustments that may be necessary should the Company not be able to continue as a going concern.

10.Stockholders’ deficit (continued)

 

c)Warrants (continued)

 

The volatility of the common stock is estimated using historical data of the Company’s common stock. The riskfree interest rate used in the Black Scholes pricing model is determined by reference to historical U.S. Treasury constant maturity rates with maturities approximate to the life of the warrants granted. An expected dividend yield of zero is used in the valuation model, because the Company does not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. As of December 31, 2016, the Company does not anticipate any awards will be forfeited in the valuation of the warrants.

 

During the current year, warrants exercisable for 6,000,000 shares expired.

13.Income taxes

 

The Company is not current in its tax filings as of December 31, 2016.

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under Accounting Standards Codification 740, Income Taxes “ASC 740”. ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax losses and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires the establishment of a valuation allowance to reflect the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets. Internal Revenue Code Section 382 “IRC 382” places a limitation on the amount of taxable income that can be offset by carry forwards after a change in control (generally greater than a 50% change in ownership).

 

A reconciliation of income taxes to the income tax recorded is as follows:

               
               
          Year ended December 31, 2016   Year ended December 31, 2015
               
Tax expense at the federal statutory rate          $       (394,991)    $      464,746

          December 31, 2016   December 31, 2015

During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company has accrued and expensed $250,000 (2015: $200,000) in penalties and interest attributable to delinquent tax returns. Management believes the Company has adequately provided for any ultimate amounts that are likely to result from audits of these returns once filed; however, final assessments, if any, could be significantly different than the amounts recorded in the financial statements.

 

The Company operates in foreign jurisdictions and is subject to audit by taxing authorities. These audits may result in the assessment of amounts different than the amounts recorded in the consolidated financial statements. The Company liaises with the relevant authorities in these jurisdictions in regard to its income tax and other returns. Management believes the Company has adequately provided for any taxes, penalties and interest that may fall due.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

 

None.

 

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

 

a)Evaluation of Disclosure and Control Procedures

 

The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure (i) that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and (ii) that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2016, and concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as a whole, and that the deficiency involving internal controls constituted a material weakness as discussed below.

 

b)Management’s Assessment of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f). A system of internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, the Company’s management has evaluated the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016, based on the criteria established in a report entitled “Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission” and the interpretive guidance issued by the Commission in Release No. 34-55929. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated and concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of December 31, 2016, and identified the following material weaknesses:

 

There are insufficient written policies and procedures to ensure the correct application of accounting and financial reporting with respect to the current requirements of GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and Notwithstanding the existence of this material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, our management believes that the consolidated financial statements included in its reports fairly present in all material respects the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s registered public accounting firm was not required to issue an attestation on its internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company will continue to evaluate the effectiveness of internal controls and procedures on an on-going basis.

 

c)Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Following completion of these disclosures, the Board will make an annual determination as to the independence of each director using the current standards for “independence” that satisfy the criteria for the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc.
