Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization and Nature of Business

Nate’s Food Co. (“we”, “us”, “our”, the “Company” or the “Registrant”) was incorporated in the state of Colorado on January 12, 2000. Nate’s Food Co. is domiciled in the state of Colorado, and its corporate headquarters are located in Huntington Beach, California. The Company selected May 31 as its fiscal year end. On May 12, 2014, Nate’s Pancakes Inc. was incorporated in the state of Indiana. On May 19, 2014, the Company completed a reverse merger between Nate’s Pancakes, Inc and Capital Resource Alliance. Nate’s Pancakes was the surviving Company. In May 2014, the Company changed its name from Capital Resource Alliance to Nate’s Food Co.

The Company is engaged in “Bitcoin Mining” – i.e. the process by which Bitcoins are created resulting in new blocks being added to the blockchain and new Bitcoins being issued to the miners. The Company intends to purchase and maintain ASIC (application-specific integrated circuit) computers - computers are specifically designed for cryptocurrency mining - that will be used for Bitcoin Mining. We plan to initially place this Bitcoin Mining equipment with 3rd party datacenters or farms (often referred as a “Co-Location”) that will power and operate our Bitcoin Mining equipment for a fee..

Our food development division licenses, develops and manufactures food products.  The Company’s Board of Directors has voted to cease product manufacturing and development of new products for its food development division. We are, however, continually exploring options to license our developed products, a ready-to-use, pre-mixed pancake and waffle batter delivered in a pressurized can. We are also exploring options on monetizing our proprietary blend of pancake and waffle dry mix. Our current product line consists of the original flavor of pancake and waffle mix and three additional flavors, Banana, Blueberry and Strawberry.  The flavors can be found at www.natesfoodcom/brands.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's annual report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K/A, on October 12, 2021. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for the most recent fiscal year 2021 as reported in Form 10-K, have been omitted.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements 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 period. A change in managements’ estimates or assumptions could have a material impact on Nate’s Food Co. financial condition and results of operations during the period in which such changes occurred. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Nate’s Food Co.’s financial statements reflect all adjustments that management believes are necessary for the fair presentation of their financial condition and results of operations for the periods presented.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all short-term marketable securities purchased with maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, convertible notes and notes payable. The carrying amounts of such financial instruments approximate their respective estimated fair value due to the short-term maturities and approximate market interest rates of these instruments.

The Company adopted ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC Topic 820”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The standard provides a consistent definition of fair value which focuses on an exit price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The standard also prioritizes, within the measurement of fair value, the use of market-based information over entity specific information and establishes a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based on the nature of inputs used in the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date.

The three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements is defined as follows:

Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets; liabilities in active markets;

Level 2 – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability other than quoted prices, either directly or indirectly, including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active; or directly or indirectly including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active;

Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement

The following table summarizes fair value measurements by level at August 31 and May 31, 2021, measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Earnings per Share

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

For the three months ended August 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, the following warrants, convertible notes and convertible preferred stock were potentially dilutive.

The following represents a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computation for the three months ended August 31, 2021:

Potential dilution from the convertible preferred stock was not included in the calculation of the dilutive earnings per share calculation for the three months ended August 31, 2021 as the effect is anti-dilutive.

The following represents a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computation for the three months ended August 31, 2020:

Potential dilution from the warrants and convertible preferred stock was not included in the calculation of the dilutive earnings per share calculation for the three months ended August 31, 2020 as the effect is anti-dilutive. 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has determined that there are no applicable recently issued accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a material impact on these financial statements.

Note 2 – Going Concern

The Company’s 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 liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company has negative working capital, recurring losses, and does not have an established source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the succeeding paragraphs and eventually attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

In the coming year, the Company’s foreseeable cash requirements will relate to continual development of the operations of its business, maintaining its good standing and making the requisite filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the payment of expenses associated with operations and business developments. The Company may experience a cash shortfall and be required to raise additional capital.

Historically, it has mostly relied upon internally generated funds such as shareholder loans and advances to finance its operations and growth. Management may raise additional capital by retaining net earnings or through future public or private offerings of the Company’s stock or through loans from private investors, although there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such financing. The Company’s failure to do so could have a material and adverse effect upon it and its shareholders.

Note 3 – Related Party Transactions

Notes Payable – Related Party

As at August 31, 2021 and May 31, 2021, the total amount owed to an officer was $369,664 and $361,075, respectively. Of the August 31, 2021 amount, $57,000 of the loan is at 10% interest and was to be repaid by June 28, 2017 and currently is in default, and as at August 31, 2021 and May 31, 2021, accrued interest of $29,512 and $28,079 in interest has been recorded with respect to this loan. There is no additional interest charged to the note as a result of the default. Additionally, $71,902 of the loan is at 10% interest and due on December 31, 2016 and currently in default and as at August 31, 2021 and May 31, 2021, accrued interest of $49,992 and $48,202, respectively in interest has been recorded with respect to this loan. There is no additional interest charged to the note as a result of the default. Additionally, $239,261 of the loan includes $8,589 that was reclassified from accounts payable during the three months August 31, 2021. This amount is at 0% interest and is due on demand.

Note 4 – Convertible Notes

The Company had the following convertible notes payable outstanding as of August 31, 2021 and May 31, 2021:

On October 13, 2016, the Company received financing from an unrelated party in the amount of $85,500 with $5,000 original issue discount and incurred $8,000 in financing costs. On December 29, 2017, the principal balance along with the related default penalties, accrued and unpaid interest, and the conversion rights were sold to another unrelated party. The original issue discount and financing costs were amortized over the original life of the note using the effective interest method. The $85,500 bears 10% interest and matured on July 13, 2017. The note is currently in default and bears 18% interest rate while in default. The holder shall be entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid conversion amount into fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock. The conversion price is the 45% discount to the lowest traded price during the previous 20 trading days to the date of a conversion notice. The Company may redeem the note at rates ranging from 125% to 150% depending on the redemption date. The note was discounted for a derivative (see note 5 for details) and the discount was amortized over the original life of the note using the effective interest method. During the three months ended August 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized interest expense of $1,830 and $1,830, respectively. As of August 31 and May 31, 2021, the Company had accrued interest of $36,376 and $34,546, respectively.

Note 5 – Derivative Liability

The Company analyzed the conversion options on its convertible note (note 4) for derivative accounting consideration under ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” and determined that the embedded conversion option should be classified as a liability when the conversion option becomes effective due to there being no explicit limit to the number of shares to be delivered upon settlement of the above conversion options. The Company accounts for warrants (note 6) as a derivative liability due to there being no explicit limit to the number of shares to be delivered upon settlement of all conversion options.

The following table summarizes the derivative liabilities included in the balance sheets at August 31, 2021 and May 31, 2021:

The table below shows the Black-Scholes option-pricing model inputs used by the Company to value the derivative liability, as well as the determined value of the option liability at each measurement date:

Note 8 – Risks and Uncertainties

In early 2020, the World Health Organization declared the rapidly spreading coronavirus disease (COVID-19) outbreak a pandemic. This pandemic has resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus. The Company considered the impact of COVID-19 on the assumptions and estimates used and determined that there were no retroactive material adverse impacts on the Company’s results of operations and financial position at August 31, 2021 and May 31, 2021. The full extent of the future impacts of COVID-19 on the Company’s operations is uncertain. A prolonged outbreak could have a material adverse impact on financial results and business operations of the Company in the future. The Company is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to its estimates or judgments or a revision of the carrying value of its assets or liabilities as of the date of issuance of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. These estimates may change, as new events occur and additional information is obtained.

Note 9 – Subsequent Events

On September 30, 2021, the Company has entered into an agreement to lease Bitcoin Equipment for a term of nine (9) months.

Management has evaluated subsequent events through the date these financial statements were issued. Based on our evaluation no additional material events have occurred that require disclosure.

General Overview

We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on January 12, 2000, under the name Capital Resources Alliance, Inc. At inception, we were a development stage company in the business of mining and exploration. On May 19, 2014 our company completed a reverse merger with Nate’s Pancakes, Inc., an Indiana company, with Nate’s Pancakes being the surviving entity. In May 2014, we changed our name from Capital Resource Alliance, Inc. to Nate’s Food Co.

In connection with the reverse merger, we became a food manufacturing and product company, and in May 2014, we executed a licensing agreement with Nate’s Pancakes to market and sell “Nate’s Homemade”, exclusively throughout the world.

Our Current Business

The Company is engaged in “Bitcoin Mining” – i.e. the process by which Bitcoins are created resulting in new blocks being added to the blockchain and new Bitcoins being issued to the miners. The Company intends to purchase and maintain ASIC (application-specific integrated circuit) computers - computers are specifically designed for cryptocurrency mining - that will be used for Bitcoin Mining. We plan to initially place this Bitcoin Mining equipment with 3rd party datacenters or farms (often referred as a “Co-Location”) that will power and operate our Bitcoin Mining equipment for a fee. We plan to generate revenues through receiving Bitcoin from our Bitcoin Mining equipment. We have not generated any revenues to date.

Bitcoin Miners engage in a set of prescribed complex mathematical calculations in order to add a block to the blockchain and thereby confirm cryptocurrency transactions included in that block’s data. Miners that are successful in adding a block to the blockchain are automatically awarded a fixed number of Bitcoins for their effort. The Company will only mine Bitcoin. The Company has executed a 9-month lease for Bitmain’s S-17s for Bitcoin Mining Equipment. The Company is actively in discussions with manufactures and resellers to acquire additional bitcoin mining equipment and capacity. The Company’s initial goal is to acquire 25,000 terrahash in mining capacity in the next 12 months. Terahashes are the unit used to measure speed of the mining hardware mining cryptocurrencies, with a TH/s equaling one trillion hash calculations computed in one second.  Open-source calculators are available, such as NovaBlock, that allow for the calculation of expected revenue based on TH/s.

Our food development division licenses, develops and manufactures food products.  The Company’s Board of Directors has voted to cease product manufacturing and development of new products for its food development division. We are, however, continually exploring options to license our developed products, a ready-to-use, pre-mixed pancake and waffle batter delivered in a pressurized can. We are also exploring options on monetizing our proprietary blend of pancake and waffle dry mix. Our current product line consists of the original flavor of pancake and waffle mix and three additional flavors, Banana, Blueberry and Strawberry.  The flavors can be found at www.natesfoodco.com/brands.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended August 31, 2021 Compared to the Three Months Ended August 31, 2020

Revenue

Our Company generated no revenue for the three months ended August 31, 2021 and 2020.

Operating Expenses

During the period ended August 31, 2021, we incurred general and administrative expenses of $9,045 compared to $1,315 incurred during the period ended August 31, 2020.

Other income (expense)

During the period ended August 31, 2021, we had a gain on derivatives of $404,462 and interest expense of $5,053 compared to a gain of derivatives of $526,437 and interest expense of $5,053 during the period ended August 31, 2020.

 Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working Capital

Cash Flows

As of August 31, 2021, our Company had $159 in cash. In management’s opinion, our Company’s cash position is insufficient to maintain our operations at the current level for the next 12 months. Any expansion may cause our company to require additional capital until such expansion begins generating revenue. It is anticipated that the raising of additional funds will principally be through the sales of our securities.

As of August 31, 2021, our total current liabilities were $953,929 which consisted of $369,664 in notes payable – related parties, $133,078 in derivative liability, $414,369 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and $36,818 in convertible notes as compared August 31, 2020, with total current liabilities of $1,344,749  which primarily consisted of $537,540 in derivative liability, $361,075 in notes payable - related parties, $409,316 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and $36,818 in convertible notes.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $456 for the three months ended August 31, 2021 compared with net cash used in operating activities of $504 in the same period in 2020.

Investing Activities

Our Company did not have any investing activities during the three months ended August 31, 2021 and 2020.

Financing Activities

Our Company did not have any financing activities during the three months ended August 31, 2021 and 2020.  

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

Critical Accounting Policies

We have identified the policies below as critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations. The impact on our business operations and any associated risks related to these policies are discussed throughout Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations when such policies affect our reported or expected financial results.

In the ordinary course of business, we have made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of results of operations and financial condition in the preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. The results form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates under different assumptions and conditions. We believe that the following discussion addresses our most critical accounting policies, which are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require our most difficult, subjective, and complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

The material estimates for our Company are that of derivative liabilities and income tax valuation allowance recorded for deferred tax assets. The estimated sensitivity to change is related to the various variables of the Black-Scholes option pricing model stated below. The specific quantitative variables are included in the notes to the consolidated financial statements. The estimated fair value of options is recognized as expense on the straight-line basis over the options’ vesting periods. The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the expected life, dividend yield, expected volatility, and risk-free interest rate weighted-average assumptions used for options and warrants granted. Expected volatility for 2021 and 2020 was estimated using our common stock for convertible notes and warrants. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the grant date. The expected life of options is based on the life of the instrument on grant date. 

Convertible Notes

Convertible notes are regarded as compound instruments, consisting of a liability component and an equity component. The component parts of compound instruments are classified separately as financial liabilities and equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. At the date of issue, the fair value of the liability component is estimated using the prevailing market interest rate for a similar non-convertible instrument. This amount is recorded as a liability on an amortized cost basis until extinguished upon conversion or at the instrument’s maturity date. The equity component is determined by deducting the amount of the liability component from the fair value of the compound instrument as a whole. This is recognized as additional paid-in capital and included in equity, net of income tax effects, and is not subsequently remeasured. After initial measurement, they are carried at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The fair value of an embedded conversion option that is convertible into a variable amount of shares and warrants that include price protection reset provision features are deemed to be “down-round protection” and, therefore, do not meet the scope exception for treatment as a derivative under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging”, since “down-round protection” is not an input into the calculation of the fair value of the conversion option and warrants and cannot be considered “indexed to the Company’s own stock” which is a requirement for the scope exception as outlined under ASC 815.

The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record the embedded conversion option and warrants at their fair values as of the inception date of the agreement and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense for each reporting period at each balance sheet date. The Company reassesses the classification of its derivative instruments at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the contract is reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification.

The Black-Scholes option valuation model was used to estimate the fair value of the conversion options. The model includes subjective input assumptions that can materially affect the fair value estimates. The expected volatility is estimated based on the most recent historical period of time, of other comparative securities, equal to the weighted average life of the options.

Conversion options are recorded as debt discount and are amortized as interest expense over the life of the underlying debt instrument.

We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of August 31, 2021. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer. Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of August 31, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the presence of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.

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 company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management has identified the following material weaknesses which have caused management to conclude that, as of August 31, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both US GAAP and SEC guidelines.

Changes in Internal Controls

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 that occurred in the quarter ended August 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
