NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NaturalShrimp Incorporated is a global shrimp farming company that has developed a technology to produce fresh, gourmet-grade shrimp reliably and economically in an indoor, re-circulating, saltwater facility.  The Company’s eco-friendly, bio-secure design does not rely on ocean water; it recreates the natural ocean environment allowing for high-density production which can be replicated anywhere in the world.

The Company’s self-contained shrimp aquiculture system allows for the production of Pacific White (Litopenaeus vannamei, formerly Penaeus vannamei) shrimp in an ecologically controlled fully contained and independent production system without the use of antibiotics or toxic chemicals.  The Company has developed several proprietary technology assets, including a knowledge base that allows the production of commercial quantities of shrimp in a closed system with a computer monitoring system that automates, monitors and maintains proper levels of oxygen, salinity and temperature for optimal shrimp production.

On November 26, 2014, Multiplayer Online Dragon, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“MYDR”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with NaturalShrimp Holdings, Inc. a Delaware corporation (“NSH” or the “Company”), pursuant to which MYDR was to acquire substantially all of the assets of NSH which assets consist primarily of all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of NaturalShrimp Corporation (“NSC”), a Delaware corporation, and NaturalShrimp Global, Inc. (“NS Global”), a Delaware corporation, and certain real property located outside of San Antonio, Texas (the “Assets”).

As discussed in Note 9, on January 30, 2015, MYDR consummated the acquisition of the Assets pursuant to the Agreement.  In accordance with the terms of the Agreement, MYDR effected a 1 for 10 reverse stock split, decreasing the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock from 97,000,000 to 9,700,000 and MYDR issued 75,520,240 shares of its common stock to NSH as consideration for the Assets.  As a result of the transaction, NSH acquired 88.62% of MYDR’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, NSC and NS Global became MYDR’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, and MYDR changed its principal business to a global shrimp farming company.  All per share amounts reflected hereafter give effect to the 1-for-10 reverse split.

The Company has two wholly owned subsidiaries including NaturalShrimp Corporation and NaturalShrimp Global, Inc.

In connection with MYDR’s receipt of approval from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), effective March 3, 2015, MYDR amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name to “NaturalShrimp Incorporated” (the “Company”).

As used in this report and unless otherwise indicated, the term “Company” refers to NaturalShrimp Incorporated and the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries (“Subsidiaries”). Unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).  The Company uses as guidance Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) as established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB).

Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NaturalShrimp Incorporated and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, NaturalShrimp Corporation and NaturalShrimp Global.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reverse Acquisitions

Identification of the Accounting Acquirer
 
 
6

 
 
The Company considers factors in ASC 805-10-55-10 through 55-15 in identifying the accounting acquirer.  The Company uses the existence of a controlling financial interest to identify the acquirer - the entity that obtains control of the acquiree.  Other pertinent facts and circumstances also shall be considered in identifying the acquirer in a business combination effected by exchanging equity interests, including the following:  (a) The relative voting rights in the combined entity after the business combination, where the acquirer usually is the combining entity whose owners as a group retain or receive the largest portion of the voting rights in the combined entity taking into consideration the existence of any unusual or special voting arrangements and options, warrants, or convertible securities; (b) the existence of a large minority voting interest in the combined entity if no other owner or organized group of owners has a significant voting interest, and where the acquirer usually is the combining entity whose single owner or organized group of owners holds the largest minority voting interest in the combined entity; (c) the composition of the governing body of the combined entity, where the acquirer usually is the combining entity whose owners have the ability to elect or appoint or to remove a majority of the members of the governing body of the combined entity; (d) the composition of the senior management of the combined entity, where the acquirer usually is the combining entity whose former management dominates the management of the combined entity; and (e) the terms of the exchange of equity interests, where the acquirer usually is the combining entity that pays a premium over the pre-combination fair value of the equity interests of the other combining entity or entities, where the acquirer usually is the combining entity whose relative size (measured in, for example, assets, revenues, or earnings) is significantly larger than that of the other combining entity or entities.

Pursuant to ASC Paragraph 805-40-05-2, as one example of a reverse acquisition, a private operating entity may arrange for a public entity to acquire its equity interests in exchange for the equity interests of the public entity.  In this situation, the public entity is the legal acquirer because it issued its equity interests, and the private entity is the legal acquiree because its equity interests were acquired.  However, application of the guidance in ASC 805-10-55-11 through 55-15 results in identifying: (a) The public entity as the acquiree for accounting purposes (the accounting acquiree); and (b) the private entity as the acquirer for accounting purposes (the accounting acquirer).

Measuring the Consideration Transferred and Non-Controlling Interest

Pursuant to ASC 805-40-30-2 and 30-3 in a reverse acquisition, the accounting acquirer usually issues no consideration for the acquiree.  Instead, the accounting acquiree usually issues its equity shares to the owners of the accounting acquirer.  Accordingly, the acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred by the accounting acquirer for its interest in the accounting acquiree is based on the number of equity interests the legal subsidiary would have had to issue to give the owners of the legal parent the same percentage equity interest in the combined entity that results from the reverse acquisition.  The fair value of the number of equity interests calculated in that way can be used as the fair value of consideration transferred in exchange for the acquiree.  The assets and liabilities of the legal acquiree are measured and recognized in the condensed consolidated financial statements at their pre-combination carrying amounts (see ASC 805-40-45-2(a)).  Therefore, in a reverse acquisition, the non-controlling interest reflects the non-controlling shareholders’ proportionate interest in the pre-combination carrying amounts of the legal acquiree’s net assets even though the non-controlling interests in other acquisitions are measured at their fair values at the acquisition date.

Presentation of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Post Reverse Acquisition

Pursuant to ASC 805-40-45-1 and 45-2, condensed consolidated financial statements following a reverse acquisition are issued under the name of the legal parent (accounting acquiree) but described in the notes as a continuation of the financial statements of the legal subsidiary (accounting acquirer), with one adjustment, which is to retroactively adjust the accounting acquirer’s legal capital to reflect the legal capital of the accounting acquiree.  That adjustment is required to reflect the capital of the legal parent (the accounting acquiree).  Comparative information presented in those condensed consolidated financial statements also is retroactively adjusted to reflect the legal capital of the legal parent (accounting acquiree).  The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all of the following: (a) The assets and liabilities of the legal subsidiary (the accounting acquirer) recognized and measured at their pre-combination carrying amounts; (b) the assets and liabilities of the legal parent (the accounting acquiree) recognized and measured in accordance with the guidance in Topic 805 "business combinations"; (c) the retained earnings and other equity balances of the legal subsidiary (accounting acquirer) before the business combination; (d) the amount recognized as issued equity interests in the condensed consolidated financial statements determined by adding the issued equity interest of the legal subsidiary (the accounting acquirer) outstanding immediately before the business combination to the fair value of the legal parent (accounting acquiree) determined in accordance with the guidance in this topic applicable to business combinations.  However, the equity structure (that is, the number and type of equity interests issued) reflects the equity structure of the legal parent (the accounting acquiree), including the equity interests the legal parent issued to effect the combination.  
 
 
7

 
 
Accordingly, the equity structure of the legal subsidiary (the accounting acquirer) is restated using the exchange ratio established in the acquisition agreement to reflect the number of shares of the legal parent (the accounting acquiree) issued in the reverse acquisition; and (e) the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the legal subsidiary’s (accounting acquirer’s) pre-combination carrying amounts of retained earnings and other equity interests as discussed in ASC 805-40-25-2 and 805-40-30-3.

Pursuant to ASC 805-40-45-4 and 45-5, in calculating the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator of the earnings-per-share (“EPS”) calculation) during the period in which the reverse acquisition occurs: (a) The number of common shares outstanding from the beginning of that period to the acquisition date shall be computed on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares of the legal acquiree (accounting acquirer) outstanding during the period multiplied by the exchange ratio established in the merger agreement; and (b) the number of common shares outstanding from the acquisition date to the end of that period shall be the actual number of common shares of the legal acquirer (the accounting acquiree) outstanding during that period.  The basic EPS for each comparative period before the acquisition date presented in the condensed consolidated financial statements following a reverse acquisition shall be calculated by dividing (a) by (b): (a) The income of the legal acquiree attributable to common shareholders in each of those periods; and (b) the legal acquiree’s historical weighted-average number of common shares outstanding multiplied by the exchange ratio established in the acquisition agreement.

As a result of the controlling financial interest of the former stockholders of NSH, for financial statement reporting purposes, the asset acquisition has been treated as a reverse acquisition with NSH deemed the accounting acquirer and the Company deemed the accounting acquiree under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805-10-55 of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC).  The reverse acquisition is deemed a capital transaction and the net assets of NSH (the accounting acquirer) are carried forward to the Company (the legal acquirer and the reporting entity) at their carrying value before the acquisition.  The acquisition process utilizes the capital structure of the Company and the assets and liabilities of NSH which are recorded at their historical cost.  The equity of the Company is the historical equity of NSH.

Use of Estimates

Preparing 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 period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Basic and Fully Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

Basic and diluted earnings or loss per share (“EPS”) amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements are computed in accordance ASC 260 – 10 “Earnings per Share”, which establishes the requirements for presenting EPS. Basic EPS is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  Diluted EPS is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and dilutive common stock equivalents.  Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income or loss available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period.  Potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share, because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Fixed Assets

Equipment is carried at fair value at the date of reverse acquisition or cost and is depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the related assets.  Depreciation on buildings is computed using the straight-line method, while depreciation on all other fixed assets is computed using the Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) method.  MACRS does not materially differ from GAAP.  Estimated useful lives are as follows:

Autos and Trucks
5 years
Buildings
27.5 – 39 years
Other Depreciable Property
5 – 10 years
Furniture and Fixtures
3 – 10 years
 
 
8

 
 
Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.  At the time of retirement or other disposition of equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation will be removed from the accounts and the resulting gain or loss, if any, will be reflected in operations.

The condensed consolidated statements of operations reflect depreciation expense of $20,500 and $18,234 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, where any such compensation is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite employee service period.  The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to non-employees in accordance with ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees, and is valued at the earlier of a commitment date or upon completion of the services, based on the fair value of the equity instruments and is recognized as expense over the service period.  The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based payments using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model for common stock options and warrants and the closing price of the Company’s common stock for common share issuances.  Once the stock is issued the appropriate expense account is charged.  All stock-based compensation currently issued is 100% vested.

As of June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014 there have been no option expenses incurred by the Company.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

During the three months ended June 30, 2015 and through July 28, 2015, there were several new accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board.  Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company.  Management does not believe the adoption of any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (ASC Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation. The amendments in this update remove the definition of a development stage entity from the Master Glossary of the Accounting Standards Codification, thereby removing the financial reporting distinction between development stage entities and other reporting entities from GAAP. In addition, the amendments eliminate the requirements for development stage entities to (1) present inception to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity, (2) label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity, (3) disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged, and (4) disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer a development stage that in prior years it had been in the development stage. The Company adopted ASU No. 2014-10 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements— Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.” Continuation of a reporting entity as a going concern is presumed as the basis for preparing financial statements unless and until the entity’s liquidation becomes imminent. Preparation of financial statements under this presumption is commonly referred to as the going concern basis of accounting.  Currently, there is no guidance under US GAAP about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures.  The amendments in this Update provide that guidance. In doing so, the amendments should reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. The amendments require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards.  Specifically, the amendments (1) provide a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued).  For the period ended June 30, 2015, management evaluated the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and concluded that substantial doubt has not been alleviated about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  While the Company continues to explore further significant sources of financing, management’s assessment was based on the uncertainty related to the amount and nature of such financing over the next twelve months.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, assuming we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.  For the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company incurred losses from operations of $571,456.  At June 30, 2015, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $27,262,002 and a working capital deficit of $4,100,290.  The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to raise the required additional capital or debt financing to meet short and long-term operating requirements.  During the three months ended June 30, 2015, the Company received net cash proceeds of $395,251 from the additional sales of common stock.  Management believes that private placements of equity capital and/or additional debt financing will be needed to fund our long-term operating requirements.  The Company may also encounter business endeavors that require significant cash commitments or unanticipated problems or expenses that could result in a requirement for additional cash.  If the Company raises additional funds through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of our current shareholders could be reduced, and such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to the Company’s common stock.  Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all.  If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, the Company may not be able to take advantage of prospective business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our operations.  We are continuing to pursue external financing alternatives to improve our working capital position.  If the Company is unable to obtain the necessary capital, the Company may have to cease operations.

The Company plans to improve the growth rate of the shrimp and the environmental conditions of its production facilities.  Management also plans to acquire a hatchery in which the Company can better control the environment in which to develop the post larvaes.  If management is unsuccessful in these efforts, discontinuance of operations is possible.  The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The Company also has a working capital line of credit with Chase Bank for $25,000.  The line of credit bears an interest rate of prime plus 3.55 basis points, which totaled 6.80% as of June 30, 2015 and March 31, 2015.  The line of credit matures on October 30, 2015 and is secured by assets of the Company’s subsidiaries.  The balance of the line of credit was $13,289 and $13,687 at June 30, 2015 and March 31, 2015, respectively.

11

NOTE 7 – FEDERAL INCOME TAX

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740-10, which provides for an asset and liability approach of accounting for income taxes.  Under this approach, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on anticipated future tax consequences, using currently enacted tax laws, attributed to temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts calculated for income tax purposes.

For the years ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company incurred net operating losses and, accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded.  In addition, no benefit for income taxes has been recorded due to the uncertainty of the realization of any deferred tax assets.

Based on the available objective evidence, including the Company’s history of losses, management believes it is more likely than not that any net deferred tax assets will not be fully realizable.  Accordingly, the Company provided for a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets at June 30, 2015 and March 31, 2015, respectively.

In accordance with ASC 740, the Company has evaluated its tax positions and determined that there are no uncertain tax positions.

NOTE 8 – CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

The Company maintains cash balances at one financial institution.  Accounts at this institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000.  As of June 30, 2015 and March 31, 2015, the Company’s cash balance did not exceed FDIC coverage.

NOTE 9 – REVERSE ACQUISITION

On November 26, 2014, Multiplayer Online Dragon, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“MYDR”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with NaturalShrimp Holdings, Inc. a Delaware corporation (“NSH”), pursuant to which MYDR was to acquire substantially all of the assets of NSH which assets consist primarily of all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of NaturalShrimp Corporation (“NSC”), a Delaware corporation, and NaturalShrimp Global, Inc. (“NS Global”), a Delaware corporation, and certain real property located outside of San Antonio, Texas (the “Assets”).

On January 30, 2015, MYDR consummated the acquisition of the Assets pursuant to the Agreement.  In accordance with the terms of the Agreement, the MYDR issued 75,520,240 shares of its common stock to NSH as consideration for the Assets.  As a result of the transaction, NSH acquired 88.62% of MYDR’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, NSC and NS Global became MYDR’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, and MYDR changed its principal business to a global shrimp farming company.

There were no material relationships between the MYDR and NSH or between the Company’s or NSH’s respective affiliates, directors, or officers or associates thereof, other than in respect of the Agreement.  Effective March 3, 2015, MYDR amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name to “NaturalShrimp Incorporated”.

The Company evaluated this transactions using ASC 805-40 “Business Combinations Reverse Acquisitions”.  Due to the change in control of the Company, this transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition in accordance with ASC No. 805-40 whereby NSH was considered the accounting acquirer.

Overview

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on July 3, 2008 under the name “Multiplayer Online Dragon, Inc.” Effective November 5, 2010, we effected an 8 for 1 forward stock split, increasing the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock from 12,000,000 shares to 96,000,000 shares. Effective October 29, 2014, we effected a 1 for 10 reverse stock split, decreasing the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock from 97,000,000 to 9,700,000.

On November 26, 2014, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with NaturalShrimp Holdings, Inc. a Delaware corporation (“NSH”), pursuant to which we agreed to acquire substantially all of the assets of NSH which assets consisted primarily of all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of NaturalShrimp Corporation (“NSC”), a Delaware corporation, and NaturalShrimp Global, Inc. (“NS Global”), a Delaware corporation, and certain real property located outside of San Antonio, Texas (the “Assets”).

On January 30, 2015, we consummated the acquisition of the Assets pursuant to the Agreement.  In accordance with the terms of the Agreement, we issued 75,520,240 shares of our common stock to NSH as consideration for the Assets.  As a result of the transaction, NSH acquired 88.62% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock, NSC and NS Global became our wholly-owned subsidiaries, and we changed our principal business to a global shrimp farming company.

In connection with our receipt of approval from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), effective March 3, 2015, we amended our Articles of Incorporation to change our name to “NaturalShrimp Incorporated”.

We are a biotechnology company and have developed a proprietary technology that allows us to grow Pacific White shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei, formerly Penaeus vannamei) in an ecologically controlled, high-density, low-cost environment, and in fully contained and independent production facilities.  Our system uses technology which allows us to produce a naturally-grown shrimp “crop” weekly, and accomplishes this without the use of antibiotics or toxic chemicals.  We have developed several proprietary technology assets, including a knowledge base that allows us to produce commercial quantities of shrimp in a closed system with a computer monitoring system that automates, monitors and maintains proper levels of oxygen, salinity and temperature for optimal shrimp production.  Our initial production facility is located outside of San Antonio, Texas.

NS Global, a wholly owned subsidiary of NaturalShrimp Incorporated., owns a percentage of NaturalShrimp International A.S. in Europe.  Our European-based partner, NaturalShrimp International A.S., Oslo, Norway is responsible for the construction cost of their facility and initial operating capital.

The first facility built in Spain for NaturalShrimp International A.S. is GambaNatural de España, S.L.  The land for the first facility was purchased in Medina del Campo, Spain and construction of the 75,000 sq. ft. facility should be completed in 2015.  Medina del Campo is approximately seventy-five miles northwest of Madrid, Spain.

On June 15, 2015, we announced the expansion of our indoor shrimp operations.  We expect that this will enable us to begin expanding our current indoor shrimp production system to launch commercial shrimp sales in August of this year.  Wholesale prices for the shrimp produced by the Company are expected to be between $9.00 to $10.00 per pound F.O.B.

Development Plan

Our plan of operation over the next 24 months is to:

Domestically

  
Secure capital and upgrade the existing R&D facility;
   ●  
Begin the retrofit of existing system to a commercial shrimp production pilot plant;
  
Following the completion of a successful capital raise and new production system build-out in La Coste, identify and build-out up to six shrimp production systems in major market areas; and
  
Begin build-out of one full scale production system per month.

Internationally

  
Begin proprietary genetics and hatchery programs;
  
Build hatchery at Medina del Campo facility;
 
 
15

 
 
  
Work with NaturalShrimp AS, to secure additional capital to build additional production systems at the Gamba Natural operations located outside of Madrid, Spain in Medina del Campo; and
  
Locate additional target markets and initiate five-year system rollout for Europe and other world markets as cash flow and capital allow.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2015 to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2014

Expenses

Our expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2015 are summarized as follows in comparison to our expenses for three months ended June 30, 2014:

   
Three Months Ended June 30,

The increase in net cash used in operating activities in the three months ended June 30, 2015 as compared to the same period last year is mainly related to an increase in operating expenses.  The increase in cash provided by financing activities is due to an increase in proceeds from the sale of our common stock.

Given our cash position of approximately $192,000 as of August 11, 2015, management believes that our cash on hand and working capital are sufficient to meet our current anticipated cash requirements through December 31, 2015.

Going Concern

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  The Company has accumulated losses through the period to June 30, 2015 of $27,262,002, as well as negative cash flows from operating activities.  Presently, the Company does not have sufficient cash resources to meet its plans in the twelve months following June 30, 2015.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Management is in the process of evaluating various financing alternatives in order to finance our research and development activities and general and administrative expenses.  These alternatives include raising funds through public or private equity markets and either through institutional or retail investors.  Although there is no assurance that the Company will be successful with our fund raising initiatives, management believes that the Company will be able to secure the necessary financing as a result of ongoing financing discussions with third party investors and existing shareholders.

The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.  The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to obtain additional financing as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability.  If the Company raises additional funds through the issuance of equity, the percentage ownership of current shareholders could be reduced, and such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to its common stock.  Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all.  If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, the Company may not be able to take advantage of prospective business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict its future plans for developing its business and achieving commercial revenues.  If the Company is unable to obtain the necessary capital, the Company may have to cease operations.

Cash Requirements

We will require additional funds to implement our growth strategy for our business.  In addition, while we have received capital from various private placements that have enabled us to fund our operations, these funds have been largely used to develop our processes, although additional funds are needed for other corporate operational and working capital purposes.  Therefore, we will need to raise an additional $1,500,000 to cover all of our operational expenses over the next 12 months.  These funds may be raised through equity financing, debt financing, or other sources, which may result in further dilution in the equity ownership of our shares.  There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms.  If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis should it be required, or generate significant material revenues from operations, we will not be able to meet our other obligations as they become due and we will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease our operations.

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.

Effects of Inflation

We do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our business, revenues or operating results during the periods presented.

Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation” (“ASU 2014-10”).  The amendments in ASU 2014-10 remove the definition of a development stage entity from the Master Glossary of the Accounting Standards Codification, thereby removing the financial reporting distinction between development stage entities and other reporting entities from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).  In addition, the amendments eliminate the requirements for development stage entities to: (i) present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity; (ii) label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity; (iii) disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged; and (iv) disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer a development stage entity that in prior years it had been in the development stage.  The presentation and disclosure requirements in Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 915, “Development Stage Entities” are no longer required for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014.  The revised consolidation standards will take effect in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015, however, early adoption is permitted.  We have elected to early adopt the provisions of ASU No. 2014-10 for our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2014.  We have elected to early adopt the provisions of ASU No. 2014-10 for our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2014 and its adoption resulted in the removal of previously required development stage disclosures.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements— Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”.  Continuation of a reporting entity as a going concern is presumed as the basis for preparing financial statements unless and until the entity’s liquidation becomes imminent.  Preparation of financial statements under this presumption is commonly referred to as the going concern basis of accounting.  Currently, there is no guidance under U.S. GAAP about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures.  The amendments in this Update provide that guidance.  In doing so, the amendments should reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures.  The amendments require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards.  Specifically, the amendments (1) provide a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued).  For the period ended March 31, 2015, management evaluated the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and concluded that substantial doubt has not been alleviated about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  While the Company continues to explore further significant sources of financing, management’s assessment was based on the uncertainty related to the amount and nature of such financing over the next twelve months.

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), our management carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and our Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act), as of the period covered by this report. Disclosure controls and procedures are defined as controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Based upon their evaluation, our management (including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2015, based on the material weaknesses defined below:

(i)           inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; and
(ii)          ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes.

Management’s Remediation Plan

We plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal control over financial reporting.  During the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above.  To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to implement the following changes in the future:

(i)
appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; and
(ii)
adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting.

The remediation efforts set out in (i) is largely dependent upon our company securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required.  If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner.  Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within our company have been detected.  These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.

Management believes that despite our material weaknesses set forth above, our condensed consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2015 are fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with US GAAP.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended June 30, 2015, we hired additional accounting consultants to assist with our internal controls and financial reporting.  However, due to our limited staff and small size, we expect that our internal controls will be limited for the foreseeable future.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
