DISCOVERY GOLD CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JANUARY 31, 2019
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1: DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Discovery Gold Corporation, a Nevada corporation, (“Discovery Gold,” “the Company,” “We," "Us" or “Our’) is a publicly-quoted shell company seeking to create value for its shareholders by merging with another entity with experienced management and opportunities for growth in return for shares of its common stock. No potential merger candidate has been identified at this time.
NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN
Our financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have no ongoing business or income. For the nine months ended January 31, 2019, we reported a net loss of $81,960, and had an accumulated deficit of $8,603,892 as of January 31, 2019. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise additional debt or equity funding to meet our ongoing operating expenses and ultimately in merging with another entity with experienced management and profitable operations. No assurances can be given that we will be successful in achieving these objectives.
NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in the understanding of the financial statements. These policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) and have been consistently applied. The Company has elected an April 31 year-end.
Interim Financial Statements
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP for interim financial information in accordance with Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows at January 31, 2019 and for the related periods presented. The results for the three and nine-months ended January 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full year. These financial statements and related footnotes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended April 30, 2018 included in the Form 10-12G/A on pages 31 to 46, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 4, 2018.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
4
NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We maintain cash balances in a non-interest-bearing account that currently does not exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.
Income Taxes:
The provision for income taxes is computed using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating losses and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in effect for the years in which those tax assets are expected to be realized or settled. We record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.
Net Loss per Share Calculation:
Basic net loss per common share ("EPS") is computed by dividing loss available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average shares outstanding, assuming all dilutive potential common shares were issued. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
No potentially dilutive debt or equity instruments were issued or outstanding during the three and nine-month periods ended January 31, 2019 and 2018.
Recently-Issued Accounting Pronouncements:
We have reviewed all the recently-issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not believe any of these pronouncements will have a material impact on our financial statements.
NOTE 4. ACCOUNTS PAYABLE
As of January 31, 2019, and April 30, 2018, $83,000 of the balance of accounts payable related to legal fees owed to a single creditor. Effective May 2, 2018, we entered into an agreement with the creditor and the two shareholders controlling the majority of our outstanding shares of common stock pursuant to which all parties agreed that in the event that the two controlling shareholders were to sell their shares, the outstanding liability to the creditor will be satisfied in full out of the sales proceeds received by the two controlling shareholders. This agreement expired at December 31, 2018. Effective December 31, 2018, the agreement was extended to April 30, 2019.
NOTE 5. ACCRUALS - RELATED PARTIES
As of January 31, 2019, and April 30, 2018, a balance of $52,247 and $7,453, respectively, represented accrued compensation due to a current officer and director and a former director and officer of the Company who is now a greater than 10% shareholder in the Company.
NOTE 6. LOANS- RELATED PARTIES
During the nine months ended January 31, 2019, our two principal shareholders advanced to us a total of $6,130 as working capital to meet our operating expenses. The loans are unsecured, interest free and due on demand.
5
NOTE 7. SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT
Preferred Stock
As of January 31, 2019, and April 30, 2018, we were authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.001.
As of January 31, 2019, and April 30, 2018, no shares of preferred stock were issued and outstanding.
Common Stock
As of January 31, 2019, and April 30, 2018, we were authorized to issue 250,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001.
No shares of common stock were issued during the three and nine-month periods ended January 31, 2019 and 2018.
As of January 31, 2019, and April 30, 2018, 249,777,311 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding.
NOTE 8. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
We have evaluated subsequent events through the date these financial statements were issued and determined that there are no reportable subsequent events.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Plan of Operation
Our plan of operations is to raise debt and, or, equity to meet our ongoing operating expenses and attempt to merge with another entity with experienced management and opportunities for growth in return for shares of our common stock to create value for our shareholders.
There can be no assurance that we will successfully complete this series of transactions. In particular, there is no assurance that any such business will be located or that any stockholder will realize any return on their shares after such a transaction. Any merger or acquisition completed by us can be expected to have a significant dilutive effect on the percentage of shares held by our current stockholders.
At this time, we have little cash on hand or committed resources of debt or equity to fund these losses, and will be reliant, potentially, on advances from our principal shareholders or our directors and officers. There can be no guarantee that we will be able to obtain sufficient funding these sources.
We believe we are an insignificant participant among the firms which engage in the acquisition of business opportunities. There are many established venture capital and financial concerns that have significantly greater financial and personnel resources and technical expertise than we have. In view of our limited financial resources and limited management availability, we will continue to be at a significant competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors.
We intend to seek, investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire an interest in business opportunities presented to us by persons or firms which desire to seek the advantages of an issuer who has complied with the Securities Act of 1934 (the “1934 Act”). We will not restrict our search to any specific business, industry or geographical location, and we may participate in business ventures of virtually any nature. This discussion of our proposed business is purposefully general and is not meant to be restrictive of our virtually unlimited discretion to search for and enter into potential business opportunities. We anticipate that we may be able to participate in only one potential business venture because of our lack of financial resources.
We may seek a business opportunity with entities which have recently commenced operations, or that desire to utilize the public marketplace in order to raise additional capital in order to expand into new products or markets, to develop a new product or service, or for other corporate purposes. We may acquire assets and establish wholly owned subsidiaries in various businesses or acquire existing businesses as subsidiaries.
We expect that the selection of a business opportunity will be complex and risky. Due to general economic conditions, rapid technological advances being made in some industries and shortages of available capital, we believe that there are numerous firms seeking the benefits of an issuer who has complied with the 1934 Act. Such benefits may include facilitating or improving the terms on which additional equity financing may be sought, providing liquidity for incentive stock options or similar benefits to key employees, providing liquidity (subject to restrictions of applicable statutes) for all stockholders and other factors. Potentially, available business opportunities may occur in many different industries and at various stages of development, all of which will make the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities extremely difficult and complex. We have, and will continue to have, essentially no assets to provide the owners of business opportunities. However, we will be able to offer owners of acquisition candidates the opportunity to acquire a controlling ownership interest in an issuer who has complied with the 1934 Act without incurring the cost and time required to conduct an initial public offering.
The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by, or under the supervision of, our directors. We intend to concentrate on identifying preliminary prospective business opportunities which may be brought to our attention through present associations of our director, professional advisors or by our stockholders. In analyzing prospective business opportunities, we will consider such matters as (i) available technical, financial and managerial resources; (ii) working capital and other financial requirements; (iii) history of operations, if any, and prospects for the future; (iv) nature of present and expected competition; (v) quality, experience and depth of management services; (vi) potential for further research, development or exploration; (vii) specific risk factors not now foreseeable but that may be anticipated to impact the proposed activities of the company; (viii) potential for growth or expansion; (ix) potential for profit; (x) public recognition and acceptance of products, services or trades; (xi) name identification; and (xii) other factors that we consider relevant. As part of our investigation of the business opportunity, we expect to meet personally with management and key personnel. To the extent possible, we intend to utilize written reports and personal investigation to evaluate the above factors.
We will not acquire or merge with any company for which audited financial statements cannot be obtained within a reasonable period of time after closing of the proposed transaction.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 31, 2019 COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 31, 2018
Revenue
We recognized no revenue during the three-month periods ended January 31, 2019 and 2018, as we have no business from which to generate revenue.
General and Administrative Expenses
During the three months ended January 31, 2019, we incurred $26,779 in general and administrative expenses compared to $36 in the three months ended January 31, 2018, an increase of $26,743. During the three months ended January 31, 2019, while we were working to ensure the Company remained fully SEC reporting and seeking a potential merger candidate, we incurred $15,000 in director’s fees, $9,000 in accounting fees, $1,500 in auditing fees, $630 in filing fees and $649 in other administrative costs. By comparison, during the three months ended January 31, 2018, while the Company was completely dormant, we incurred just $36 in sundry administrative costs.
Other Income (Expense)
We recognized no other income (expense) during the three-month periods ended January 31, 2019 and 2018.
Provision for Income Tax
No provision for income taxes was recorded in the three-month periods ended January 31, 2019 or 2018 as we incurred tax losses in both periods.
Net Loss
During the three months ended January 31, 2019, we incurred a net loss of $26,779 compared to a net loss of $36 in the three months ended January 31, 2018, an increase of $26,743, due to the factors discussed above.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 31, 2019 COMPARED TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JANUARY 31, 2018
Revenue
We recognized no revenue during the nine-month periods ended January 31, 2019 and 2018, as we have no business from which to generate revenue.
General and Administrative Expenses
During the nine months ended January 31, 2019, we incurred $81,960 in general and administrative expenses compared to $92 in the nine months ended January 31, 2018, an increase of $81,868. During the nine months ended January 31, 2019, while we were working to make the Company fully SEC reporting once again and seeking a potential merger candidate, we incurred $45,000 in director’s fees, $27,000 in accounting fees, $8,000 in auditing fees, $1,752 in filing fees and $208 in sundry other administrative costs. By comparison, during the nine months ended January 31, 2018, while the Company was completely dormant, we incurred just $92 in sundry administrative costs.
8
Other Income (Expense)
We recognized no other income (expense) during the nine-month periods ended January 31, 2019 and 2018.
Provision for Income Tax
No provision for income taxes was recorded in the nine-month periods ended January 31, 2019 or 2018, as we incurred tax losses in both periods.
Net Loss
During the nine months ended January 31, 2019, we incurred a net loss of $81,960 compared to a net loss of $92 in the nine months ended January 31, 2018, an increase of $81,868, due to the factors discussed above.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At January 31, 2019, we had cash or cash equivalents of $25, no other assets, no operating business or other source of income and outstanding liabilities and a stockholders’ deficit of $8,603,892.
Consequently, we are now dependent on raising additional equity and/or debt to meet our ongoing operating expenses. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise the necessary equity and/or debt that we will need to fund our ongoing operating expenses.
It is our current intention to seek to raise debt and, or, equity financing to meet ongoing operating expenses and attempt to merge with another entity with experienced management and opportunities for growth in return for shares of our common stock to create value for our shareholders. There is no assurance that this series of events will be satisfactorily completed.
Future losses are likely to occur as, until we are able to merge with another entity with experienced management and opportunities for growth in return for shares of our common stock to create value for our shareholders, we have no sources of income to meet our operating expenses.
As a result of these, among other factors, we received from our registered independent public accountants in their report for the financial statements for the years ended April 30, 2018 and 2017, an explanatory paragraph stating that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Operating Activities
During the nine-months ended January 31, 2019, we recognized a net loss of $81,960, which was decreased for cash flow purposes by a $29,472 increase in accounts payable and a $44,794 increase in accruals for related parties resulting in net cash flow used in operating activities of $7,694. By comparison, during the nine-months ended January 31, 2018, we recognized a net loss of $92 which was decreased for cash flow purposes by a $1,922 reduction in accruals for related parties resulting in net cash flow used in operating activities of $2,014.
Investing Activities
We neither generated nor used funds in investing activities during the nine-months ended January 31, 2019 and 2018.
Financing Activities
During the nine months ended January 31, 2019, we received $6,130 by way of loans from our principal shareholders to fund our working capital requirements. By comparison, we neither generated nor used funds in financing activities during the nine-months ended January 31, 2018.

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide information required by this Item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management conducted an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, who is our principal executive officer and our principal financial and accounting officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this registration statement on Form 10. Based on that evaluation, we concluded that because of the material weakness and significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not sufficient as of January 31, 2019.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for the preparation of our financial statements and related information. Management uses its best judgment to ensure that the financial statements present accurately, in material respects, our financial position and results of operations in fairness and conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in the Exchange Act. These internal controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the reported financial information is presented fairly, that disclosures are adequate, and that the assumptions and opinions in the preparation of financial statements are reasonable. There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal controls, including the possibility of human error and overriding of controls. Consequently, an ineffective internal control system can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance with respect to reporting financial information.
Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to maintaining records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that the receipts and expenditures of company assets are made in accordance with our management’s and directors’ authorization; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding the prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.
We conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, based on the framework in “Internal Control Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) and published in 2013, and subsequent guidance prepared by COSO specifically for smaller public companies. Based on that evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not sufficient as of January 31, 2019 for the reasons discussed below.
A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting, that adversely affects the entity’s ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report financial data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the entity’s financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected by the entity’s internal control. A material weakness is a deficiency or a combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management identified the following material weakness and significant deficiencies in its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2019:
11
- |
Significant Deficiency - The Company did not maintain effective controls over certain aspects of the financial reporting process because we lacked personnel with accounting expertise and an adequate supervisory review structure that is commensurate with our financial reporting requirements.
|
- |
Material Weakness – Inadequate segregation of duties.
|
We expect to be materially dependent on a third party that can provide us with accounting consulting services for the foreseeable future. Until such time as we have a chief financial officer with the requisite expertise in U.S. GAAP, there are no assurances that the material weaknesses and significant deficiencies in our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will not result in errors in our financial statements, which could lead to a restatement of those financial statements. Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and maintained, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must account for resource constraints. In addition, the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, can and will be detected.
This quarterly review on Form 10Q does not include an attestation report from our 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 Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this quarterly review on Form 10Q.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended January 31, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
