Note 1 - Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

CocoLuv Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on September 13, 2017 and established a fiscal year end of May 31.

On February 21, 2022, pursuant to the terms of a Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Karbon-X Project Inc. (“Karbon-X”), and Karbon-X became the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company in a reverse merger (the “Reverse Acquisition”). Pursuant to the Reverse Acquisition, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Karbon-X common stock were converted, at an exchange ratio of 20,000-for-1, into an aggregate of 20,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, resulting in Karbon-X becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and all debt owed to the related party of Cocoluv, Inc. was forgiven. The accompanying financial statements’ share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the exchange ratio in the Reverse Acquisition. Pursuant to the reverse acquisition, on March 21, 2022 the name of the Company was changed in the State of Nevada from Cocoluv, Inc. to Karbon-X Corp.

Under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP”), because the combined entity will be dependent on Karbon-X’s senior management, the Reverse Acquisition was accounted for as a recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein Karbon-X is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. On the date of the reorganization, the assets and liabilities of Karbon-X have been brought forward at their book value and consolidated with Cocoluv, Inc.’s assets, which comprised of cash and cash equivalents of $134 and liabilities which comprises due to related party of $99,902 (see Note 1 Basis of Presentation below). No goodwill has been recognized. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities and the historical operations that are reflected in the consolidated financial statements are those of Karbon-X and are recorded at the historical cost basis of Karbon-X.

Going concern

To date the Company has generated no revenues from its business operations and has incurred operating losses since inception of $265. As of February 28, 2022, the Company has a working capital deficit of $125. The Company will require additional funding to meet its ongoing obligations and to fund anticipated operating losses. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising capital to fund its initial business plan and ultimately to attain profitable operations. Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company intends to continue to fund its business by way of private placements and advances from related parties as may be required. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. They do not include all information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, there has been no material changes in the information disclosed in the notes to the financial statements for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2021, included in the Company’s year-end financial statements on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with those financial statements included in the Form 10-K. In the opinion of Management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, have been made. Operating results for the nine-months ended February 28, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending May 31, 2022.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

Preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain 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 period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers highly liquid financial instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amount of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair values due to their short-term maturities.

Earnings per Common Share

The basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the year. The diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. Diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share due to the lack of dilutive items in the Company. As of February 28, 2022, there were no common stock equivalents outstanding.

Note 2 – Subsequent Events

Subsequent to March 31, 2022 and through June 1, 2022, Karbon-X Corp. completed a private placement pursuant to Rule 506(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In that private placement the company sold 3,820,000 units at $0.25 per unit for total gross proceeds of $955,000. Each unit consisted of  share of common stock and  warrant to purchase a share of common stock for $0.75 per share for a period of two years. In connection with the private placement, the Company paid $10,000 as a finder’s fee.

Subsequent to March 31, 2022 and through the date that these financial statements were available to be issued, the Company made two payments amounting to approximately $232,654 to a third-party app development company.

On May 19, 2022, the company paid $70,000 to plant 20,000 trees in 2022.

On May 6, 2022, the Company signed a lease agreement to rent office space for a one-year term beginning June 1, 2022 at a base rent of $1,627.50 per month.

Subsequent events have been evaluated through June 17, 2022, the date these financial statements were available to be released and noted no other events requiring disclosure.

Effective June 1, 2022 the Company entered into a Carbon Credits Purchase Agreement with SCB Brokers, S.A. Pursuant to that agreement, the Company agreed to purchase 20,000 tCO2e Carbon Credits from SCB Brokers for $86,000.

Overview

CocoLuv Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on September 13, 2017 and established a fiscal year end of May 31.

On February 21, 2022, pursuant to the terms of a Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Karbon-X Project Inc. (“Karbon-X”), and Karbon-X became the wholly owned subsidiary of the Company in a reverse merger (the “Reverse Acquisition”). Pursuant to the Reverse Acquisition, all of the issued and outstanding shares of Karbon-X common stock were converted, at an exchange ratio of 20,000-for-1, into an aggregate of 20,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, resulting in Karbon-X becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and all debt owed to the related party of Cocoluv, Inc. was forgiven. The accompanying financial statements’ share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect the exchange ratio in the Reverse Acquisition.

Karbon-X provides customized transactional options, tailored insights, and scalable access to the Verified Emissions Reduction markets.

Karbon-X changes the marketing framework of traditional carbon marketing by engaging the public vs industry with multiple forms of technology based greenhouse gas reduction builds. Karbon-X will allow the public to purchase carbon offsets from an APP that is subscription based, with multiple levels of investment for every budget. Each subscription will support clean energy projects such as solar or wind power, methane capture, or reforestation and will reduce greenhouse gas emissions with provable, verifiable carbon credits.

Karbon-X is in development of NFTs to digitize and allow for the trading of tokenized carbon credits in order to bring transparency and liquidity to the global carbon offset market. The aim of the decentralized platform is to enable offset trading on existing tokenized exchanges and their own exchange accepting of all forms of payment, crypto, fiat or card.

NFT minting platform for carbon credits truly allows carbon credit owners to mint their credits into NFTs for a secure and efficient method of trading in a market that appears set to grow rapidly in the coming years. A trading platform will allow the owners of the NFT to monitor their assets while tracking their value and trading history. This is done on the blockchain to mitigate many risks such as double trading and long term record keeping issues. By using a “side chain” of ethereum costs are kept to a minimum for users

References in this periodic report on Form 10-Q to “Karbon-X” or the “Company” may include references to the operations of our subsidiary Karbon-X Project. This entity is a 100% wholly owned subsidiary of Karbon-X and consequentially reports quarterly financials up to a consolidated quarterly submission.

Effects of COVID-19

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak and the related adverse public health developments have adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, leading to an economic downturn. While COVID-19 delayed shipment of some of our products, management has determined that there has been no significant impact to the Company’s operations, however management continues to monitor the situation.

Critical Accounting Policies

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q.

Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Results of Operations

Comparison of Unaudited Results for the Three Months Ended February 28, 2022 compared to the Three Months Ended February 28, 2021

Sales and Revenue

For the three-month periods ended February 28, 2022 and February 28, 2021 we had no revenue. We are just at the beginning of our operations which we expect to improve during the current fiscal year.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the three-month period ended February 28, 2022 totaled $1,865 compared to $12,299 for the three month period ended February 28, 2021. Operating expenses for the three-month period ended February 28, 2022 were negligible. Operating expenses for the three-month period ended February 28, 2021 were office and general expenses.

Net Loss

Net loss from operations after income taxes was $1,865 during the three months ended February 28, 2022 compared to $12,299 during the three-month period ended February 28, 2021. Again this was as a result of office and general expenses in 2021.

Comparison of Unaudited Results for the Nine Months Ended February 28, 2022 compared to the Nine Months Ended February 28, 2021

Sales and Revenue

For the nine-month periods ended February 28, 2022 and February 28, 2021 we had no revenue. We are just at the beginning of our operations which we expect to improve during the current fiscal year.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the nine-month period ended February 28, 2022 totaled $34,871 compared to $28,062 for the nine month period ended February 28, 2021. Operating expenses for the nine-month period ended February 28, 2022 is a result of an adjustment to reconcile net loss to net cash.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following table sets forth the major components of our statements and consolidated statements of cash flows for the periods presented.

As of February 28, 2022, the Company had $141 in current assets.

To date, the Company has financed its operations through equity sales.

On March 7, 2022 the Company commenced a private placement pursuant to Rule 506(c) promulgated under Regulation D of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The private placement is ongoing. The private placement sought to raise $1,000,000 through the sale of Units at $0.25 per Unit, each consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant to purchase one share of common stock for two years at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. As of May 31, 2022 we have obtained $860,000 in gross proceeds from this offering.

Future Financing

In connection with its proposed business plan and currently ongoing and proposed acquisitions, in addition to the possible proceeds from this offering the Company will be required to complete substantial and significant additional capital formation. Such formation could be through additional equity offerings, debt, bank financings or a combination of any source of financing. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in completion of such financings.

Plan of Operations

As noted above, the continuation of our current plan of operations requires us to raise significant additional capital. If we are successful in raising capital through the sale of convertible notes or common shares, we believe that we will have sufficient cash resources to fund our plan of operations through 2022. If we are unable to do so, we may have to curtail and possibly cease some operations. We intend to use the net proceeds from the offering for operations, regulatory compliance, intellectual property, working capital and general corporate purposes.

We continually evaluate our plan of operations to determine the manner in which we can most effectively utilize our limited cash resources. The timing of completion of any aspect of our plan of operations is highly dependent upon the availability of cash to implement that aspect of the plan and other factors beyond our control. There is no assurance that we will successfully obtain the required capital or revenues, or, if obtained, that the amounts will be sufficient to fund our ongoing operations.

Capital Expenditures

As of February 28, 2022 we had no capital expenditures.

Commitments and Contractual Obligations

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide this information.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Going Concern

To date the Company has generated no revenues from its business operations and has incurred operating losses since inception of $265. As of February 28, 2022, the Company has a working capital deficit of $125. The Company will require additional funding to meet its ongoing obligations and to fund anticipated operating losses. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising capital to fund its initial business plan and ultimately to attain profitable operations. Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company intends to continue to fund its business by way of private placements and advances from related parties as may be required. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our 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 of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

Our management evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of February 28, 2022. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that, as of February 28, 2022, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective. Because of limitations in our financial operations we had limited resources. These adjustments indicate material weaknesses in certain cycles, including but not limited to inventory and costing, and financial reporting.

This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permits us to provide only management’s report in this quarterly report.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
