NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 1 – Organization and Description of Business

 

Next Meats Holdings, Inc. (we, us, our, or the "Company"), formerly known as Turnkey Solutions, Inc., was incorporated on April 15, 2020 in the State of Nevada.

 

On April 15, 2020, Paul Moody was appointed Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Director of the Company, at the time known as, “Turnkey Solutions, Inc.”.

 

On October 1, 2020, the Company, at the time known as “Turnkey Solutions, Inc.” (the “Company” or “Successor”) announced on Form 8-K plans to participate in a holding company reorganization (“the Reorganization” or “Merger”) with Intermedia Marketing Solutions, Inc. (“IMMM” or “Predecessor”) and Intermedia Marketing Solutions Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”) collectively (the “Constituent Corporations”) pursuant to NRS 92A.180, NRS A.200, NRS 92A.230 and NRS 92A.250. Immediately prior to the Reorganization, the Company was a direct and wholly owned subsidiary of Intermedia Marketing Solutions, Inc. and Intermedia Marketing Solutions Merger Sub, Inc. was a direct and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

The effective date and time of the Reorganization was October 28, 2020 at 4PM PST (the “Effective Time”). The entire plan of Merger is on file with Nevada Secretary of State (“NSOS”) and included in the Articles of Merger pursuant to NRS 92A.200 Nevada Secretary of State (“NSOS”) and attached to and made a part thereof to the Articles of Merger pursuant to NRS 92A.200 filed with NSOS on October 16, 2020. At the Effective Time, Predecessor merged with and into its indirect and wholly owned subsidiary, Merger Sub with Predecessor as the surviving corporation resulting in Predecessor as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

Concurrently and after the Effective Time, the Company cancelled all of its stock held in Predecessor resulting in the Company as a stand-alone and separate entity with no subsidiaries, no assets and negligible liabilities. The assets and liabilities of Predecessor, if any, remain with Predecessor. The Company has abandoned the business plan of its Predecessor and resumed its former business plan of a blank check company after completion of the Merger.

 

Full details pertaining to the Reorganization can be viewed in the Company’s Form 8-K filed on October 29, 2020.

 

On November 18, 2020 our former controlling shareholder, Flint Consulting Services, LLC sold 35,000,000 shares of common stock to Next Meats Co., Ltd. a Japan Company, referred to herein as, “NMCO”. The majority shareholders of Next Meats Co., Ltd. are comprised of Ryo Shirai, Hideyuki Sasaki, and Koichi Ishizuka. The Purchase Price was paid with personal funds of the majority shareholders of NMCO.

 

On the same day, November 18, 2020, Paul Moody resigned from his position of Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director.

 

Simultaneous to Paul Moody’s resignations Ryo Shirai was appointed as our Chief Executive Officer and Director, Hideyuki Sasaki as our Chief Operating Officer and Director, and Koichi Ishizuka as our Chief Financial Officer.

 

On January 8, 2021 our majority shareholder, Next Meats Co., Ltd., a Japan Company, along with our Board of Directors, comprised of Mr. Koichi Ishizuka, Mr. Ryo Shirai, and Mr. Hideyuki Sasaki, took action to ratify, affirm, and approve a name change of the Company from Turnkey Solutions, Inc., to Next Meats Holdings, Inc. The Company filed a Certificate of Amendment with the Nevada Secretary of State (“NVSOS”) to enact the name change with an effective date of January 19, 2021. This was previously disclosed in the Form 8-K we filed on January 25, 2021.

 

Also on January 8, 2021, our majority shareholder Next Meats Co., Ltd., along with our Board of Directors took action to ratify, affirm, and approve a change of the Company’s ticker symbol from TKSI to NXMH.

 

Pursuant to the above, the Company carried out a FINRA corporate action. As a result of the aforementioned actions the Company’s CUSIP number was changed from 90043H102 to 65345L 100. The change in CUSIP, name change, and symbol change were posted on the FINRA daily list on January 25, 2021 with a market effective date of January 26, 2021.

 

On January 28, 2021, our majority shareholder, Next Meats Co., Ltd., along with our Board of Directors took action to ratify, affirm, and approve the issuance of 452,352,298 shares of restricted common stock to Next Meats Co., Ltd. The shares were issued for services rendered to the Company. Following this issuance we now had 500,000,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

 

On June 9, 2021 the Company entered into a “Share Cancellation and Exchange Agreement” (referred to herein as “the Agreement”) with Next Meats Co., Ltd.

 

Next Meats Co., Ltd. is a Japanese Company that operates in the “alternative meat” industry. It currently offers, and plans to continue to offer, amongst other things, artificial chicken and beef products made from meat substitutes. The product offerings from Next Meats Co., Ltd. are currently sold to various food distributors, supermarkets, and restaurant groups.

 

Next Meats Co., Ltd. is referred to herein as “NMCO”, and Next Meats Holdings, Inc., is referred to herein as “the Company”, and or “NXMH.” The current shareholders of Next Meats Co., Ltd. are referred to herein as “NMCO shareholders”.

 

Pursuant to the Share Cancellation and Exchange Agreement, at the effective time of the agreement, NXMH shall acquire NMCO as a wholly owned subsidiary and commensurate with this action, there shall be a conversion of the NXMH Percentile Share Interest in exchange for the Company’s 100% percentile share interest in NMCO. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, each NMCO shareholder shall cancel and exchange their percentile share interest in NMCO for an equivalent percentile share interest in NXMH pursuant to each NMCO shareholder’s pro rata percentage set forth within the chart contained within our Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 24, 2021. At the Effective Time, NMCO shall issue NXMH 1,000 shares of its common stock.

 

Effective Time: Subject to the provisions of the Agreement, prior to the Effective Time, NMCO shall utilize reasonable and best commercial efforts to complete an audit by an accounting firm that is registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. Upon completion, NXMH shall prepare and file a super Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including Form 10 information on behalf of NMCO. The Agreement shall become effective upon the issuance by NMCO of the 1,000 shares of its common stock to NXMH, which shall not occur until such time as the Super Form 8-K is complete and ready to be filed with the SEC (the date and time the Agreement becomes effective being referred to herein as the “Effective Time”).

 

On or about September 17, 2021, we incorporated NextMeats France, a French entity, which will act as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. We intend to utilize NextMeats France to, amongst other things, operate as a reseller and distributor, in France and throughout Europe, of food products currently offered by Next Meats Co., Ltd. There are currently no agreements in place between Next Meats Co., Ltd. and NextMeats France, however each entity is currently under common control and shares the same management team.

 

The company operates through its wholly owned subsidiary, NextMeats France, through which the Company seeks to offer alternative meat products. As mentioned previously, the Company is also pending the acquisition of Next Meats Co., Ltd., a Company that sells alternative meat products.

 

The Company has elected April 30th as its year end.

 

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company's financial statements. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles, generally accepted in the United States of America, and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

 

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s most recent Annual Financial Statements 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 period presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements, which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the unaudited financial statements for the most recent fiscal period, as reported in the 2021 Annual Report, have been omitted. 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading have been included. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents at October 31, 2021 and April 30, 2021 were $65,887 and $0, respectively. 

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740, “Income Taxes.”  Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs.  A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations. No deferred tax assets or liabilities were recognized at October 31, 2021 and April 30, 2021.

 

Basic Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

The Company computes basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vest resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the earnings of the Company.

 

The Company does not have any potentially dilutive instruments as of October 31, 2021 and, thus, anti-dilution issues are not applicable.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s balance sheet includes certain financial instruments. The carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair value because of the relatively short period of time between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization.

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 

- Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

- Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

- Level 3 - Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.  

 

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of October 31, 2021. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. These financial instruments include accrued expenses.

  

Related Parties

 

The Company follows ASC 850, Related Party Disclosures, for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.

 

Share-Based Compensation

 

ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee services are acquired. Transactions include incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares, options, and other equity instruments such as employee stock ownership plans and stock appreciation rights. Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on their fair values. That expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period).

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505-50, “Equity – Based Payments to Non-Employees.”  Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable:  (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued.  The fair value of the share-based payment transaction is determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date.  

 

The Company had no stock-based compensation plans as of October 31, 2021.

 

The Company’s stock based compensation for the periods ended October 31, 2021 and July 31, 2020 were $0 for both periods.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). ASU 2016-02 is amended by ASU 2018-01, ASU2018-10, ASU 2018-11, ASU 2018-20 and ASU 2019-01, which FASB issued in January 2018, July 2018, July 2018, December 2018 and March 2019, respectively (collectively, the amended ASU 2016-02). The amended ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize on the balance sheet a right-of-use asset, representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term, and a lease liability for all leases with terms greater than 12 months. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee have not significantly changed from current GAAP. The amended ASU 2016-02 retains a distinction between finance leases (i.e. capital leases under current GAAP) and operating leases. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases will be substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases under current GAAP. The amended ASU 2016-02 also requires qualitative and quantitative disclosures designed to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. A modified retrospective transition approach is permitted to be used when an entity adopts the amended ASU 2016-02, which includes a number of optional practical expedients that entities may elect to apply.

 

We do not believe we will be impacted in the foreseeable future by the newly adopted accounting standard(s) mentioned above.

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Note 3 – Going Concern

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

The Company demonstrates adverse conditions that raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for one year following the issuance of these financial statements. These adverse conditions are negative financial trends, specifically operating loss, working capital deficiency, and other adverse key financial ratios.

 

The Company, as of October 31, 2021, had not established any source of revenue to cover its operating costs. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event that the Company cannot continue as a going concern.

 

Note 4 – Income Taxes

 

The Company has not recognized an income tax benefit for its operating losses generated based on uncertainties concerning its ability to generate taxable income in future periods. The tax benefit for the period presented is offset by a valuation allowance established against deferred tax assets arising from the net operating losses, the realization of which could not be considered more likely than not. In future periods, tax benefits and related deferred tax assets will be recognized when management considers realization of such amounts to be more likely than not. As of October 31, 2021, the Company has incurred a net loss of approximately $5,880,653,436 which resulted in a net operating loss for income tax purposes.  The loss results in a deferred tax asset of approximately $1,234,937,222 at the effective statutory rate of 21%. The deferred tax asset has been offset by an equal valuation allowance. Given our inception on April 15, 2020, and our fiscal year end of April 30, 2021, we have completed two taxable fiscal years.

Note 5 – Commitments and Contingencies

The Company follows ASC 450-20, Loss Contingencies, to report accounting for contingencies.  Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated. There were no commitments or contingencies as of October 31, 2021.

Note 6 – Stock

On July 20, 2021, Catapult Solutions, Inc., a Nevada Corporation (“Catapult”), entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) by and among CRS Consulting, LLC, a Wyoming Limited Liability Company (“CRS”), related party White Knight Co., Ltd., (“WKC”), and the Company, pursuant to which, on July 23, 2021, (“Closing Date”), for the purchase price of $375,000, CRS sold 10,000 shares of Catapult’s Series Z Preferred Stock, representing approximately 81.20% voting control of the Company; 5,000 shares of Series Z Preferred Stock were transferred to WKC and 5,000 shares of Series Z Preferred Stock were transferred to the Company. WKC paid consideration of $187,500 and related party, Next Meats Co., Ltd., paid the remaining $187,500 on behalf of the Company. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement resulted in a change in control of Catapult, with WKC and the Company becoming Catapult’s largest controlling stockholders, having approximately 80.20% combined voting control over Catapult.

 

Pursuant to the Agreement, on July 23, 2021, the former Directors of Catapult resigned their positions and, on that same date, our CFO and Director, Mr. Koichi Ishizuka, was appointed as Catapult’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer, and Director.

 

The purpose of the acquisition of the shares on July 23, 2021 was to acquire control of Catapult, which at that time was a shell company as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act with no operating business.

 

It should be noted that Catapult Solutions, Inc. has, subsequent to the events described above, conducted a name change and is now known as Dr. Foods, Inc.

ITEM 2 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-Looking Statements

 

Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, and are including this statement for purposes of complying with those safe-harbor provisions. Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects include, but are not limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.

 

Company Overview

 

Corporate History

 

Next Meats Holdings, Inc. (we, us, our, or the "Company"), formerly known as Turnkey Solutions, Inc., was incorporated on April 15, 2020 in the State of Nevada.

 

On April 15, 2020, Paul Moody was appointed Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and Director of the Company, at the time known as “Turnkey Solutions, Inc.”.

 

On October 1, 2020, the Company, at the time known as, “Turnkey Solutions, Inc.” (the “Company” or “Successor”) announced on Form 8-K plans to participate in a holding company reorganization (“the Reorganization” or “Merger”) with Intermedia Marketing Solutions, Inc. (“IMMM” or “Predecessor”) and Intermedia Marketing Solutions Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”) collectively (the “Constituent Corporations”) pursuant to NRS 92A.180, NRS A.200, NRS 92A.230 and NRS 92A.250. Immediately prior to the Reorganization, the Company was a direct and wholly owned subsidiary of Intermedia Marketing Solutions, Inc. and Intermedia Marketing Solutions Merger Sub, Inc. was a direct and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

The effective date and time of the Reorganization was October 28, 2020 at 4PM PST (the “Effective Time”). The entire plan of Merger is on file with Nevada Secretary of State (“NSOS”) and included in the Articles of Merger pursuant to NRS 92A.200 Nevada Secretary of State (“NSOS”) and attached to and made a part thereof to the Articles of Merger pursuant to NRS 92A.200 filed with NSOS on October 16, 2020. At the Effective Time, Predecessor merged with and into its indirect and wholly owned subsidiary, Merger Sub with Predecessor as the surviving corporation resulting in Predecessor as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

Concurrently and after the Effective Time, the Company cancelled all of its stock held in Predecessor resulting in the Company as a stand-alone and separate entity with no subsidiaries, no assets and negligible liabilities. The assets and liabilities of Predecessor, if any, remain with Predecessor. The Company has abandoned the business plan of its Predecessor and resumed its former business plan of a blank check company after completion of the Merger.

 

Full details pertaining to the Reorganization can be viewed in the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 29, 2020.

 

On November 18, 2020 our former controlling shareholder, Flint Consulting Services, LLC sold 35,000,000 shares of common stock to Next Meats Co., Ltd. a Japan Company. The Purchase Price was paid with personal funds of the majority shareholders of Next Meats Co., Ltd.

 

On the same day, November 18, 2020, Paul Moody resigned from his position of Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary, Treasurer and Director.

 

Simultaneous to Paul Moody’s resignations, Ryo Shirai was appointed as our Chief Executive Officer and Director, Hideyuki Sasaki as our Chief Operating Officer and Director, and Koichi Ishizuka as our Chief Financial Officer.

 

On January 8, 2021 our majority shareholder, Next Meats Co., Ltd., a Japan Company, along with our Board of Directors, comprised of Mr. Koichi Ishizuka, Mr. Ryo Shirai, and Mr. Hideyuki Sasaki, took action to ratify, affirm, and approve a name change of the Company from Turnkey Solutions, Inc., to Next Meats Holdings, Inc. The Company filed a Certificate of Amendment with the Nevada Secretary of State (“NVSOS”) to enact the name change with an effective date of January 19, 2021. This was previously disclosed in the Form 8-K we filed on January 25, 2021.

 

Also on January 8, 2021, our majority shareholder Next Meats Co., Ltd., along with our Board of Directors took action to ratify, affirm, and approve a change of the Company’s ticker symbol from TKSI to NXMH.

 

Pursuant to the above, the Company carried out a FINRA corporate action. As a result of the aforementioned actions the Company’s CUSIP number was changed from 90043H102 to 65345L 100. The change in CUSIP, name change, and symbol change were posted on the FINRA daily list on January 25, 2021 with a market effective date of January 26, 2021.

 

On January 28, 2021, our majority shareholder, Next Meats Co., Ltd., along with our Board of Directors took action to ratify, affirm, and approve the issuance of 452,352,298 shares of restricted common stock to Next Meats Co., Ltd. The shares were issued for services rendered to the Company. Following this issuance we now have 500,000,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

 

On June 9, 2021 the Company entered into a “Share Cancellation and Exchange Agreement” (referred to herein as “the Agreement”) with Next Meats Co., Ltd., a Japan Company.

 

Next Meats Co., Ltd. is a Japanese Company that operates in the “alternative meat” industry. It currently offers, and plans to continue to offer, amongst other things, artificial chicken and beef products made from meat substitutes. The product offerings from Next Meats Co., Ltd. are currently sold to various food distributors, supermarkets, and restaurant groups.

 

Next Meats Co., Ltd. is referred to herein as “NMCO”, and Next Meats Holdings, Inc., is referred to herein as “the Company”, and or “NXMH.” The current shareholders of Next Meats Co., Ltd. are referred to herein as “NMCO shareholders”.

 

Pursuant to the Share Cancellation and Exchange Agreement, at the effective time of the agreement, NXMH shall acquire NMCO as a wholly owned subsidiary and commensurate with this action, there shall be a conversion of the NXMH Percentile Share Interest in exchange for the Company’s 100% percentile share interest in NMCO. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, each NMCO shareholder shall cancel and exchange their percentile share interest in NMCO for an equivalent percentile share interest in NXMH pursuant to each NMCO shareholder’s pro rata percentage set forth within the chart contained within our Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 24, 2021. At the Effective Time, NMCO shall issue NXMH 1,000 shares of its common stock.

 

Effective Time: Subject to the provisions of the Agreement, prior to the Effective Time, NMCO shall utilize reasonable and best commercial efforts to complete an audit by an accounting firm that is registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. Upon completion, NXMH shall prepare and file a super Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including Form 10 information on behalf of NMCO. The Agreement shall become effective upon the issuance by NMCO of the 1,000 shares of its common stock to NXMH, which shall not occur until such time as the Super Form 8-K is complete and ready to be filed with the SEC (the date and time the Agreement becomes effective being referred to herein as the “Effective Time”).  At the Effective Time, NXMH will operate through NMCO. NMCO is a Japanese Company that operates in the “alternative meat” industry. It currently offers, and plans to continue to offer, artificial chicken and beef products made from meat substitutes.

 

The aforementioned parties hereto intend that the reorganization contemplated by this Agreement shall constitute a tax-free organization pursuant to Section 368(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code.

 

Full details of the agreement can be found in the company’s 8-K filed on June 9, 2021.

 

On July 20, 2021, Catapult Solutions, Inc., a Nevada Corporation (“CPSL”), entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) by and among CRS Consulting, LLC, a Wyoming Limited Liability Company (“CRS”), White Knight Co., Ltd., a Japan Company (“WKC”), and Next Meats Holdings, Inc., a Nevada Company (“NXMH”), pursuant to which, on July 23, 2021, (“Closing Date”), CRS sold 10,000 shares of CPSL’s Series Z Preferred Stock, representing approximately 81.20% voting control of Catapult Solutions, Inc.; 5,000 shares of Series Z Preferred Stock were transferred to WKC and 5,000 shares of Series Z Preferred Stock were transferred to NXMH.

 

WKC and NXMH paid consideration of three hundred seventy-five thousand dollars ($375,000) (the “Purchase Price”). The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement resulted in a change in control of Catapult Solutions, Inc., with WKC and NXMH, becoming the largest controlling stockholders of Catapult Solutions, Inc. Subsequent to the above, Catapult Solutions, Inc. changed its name to Dr. Foods, Inc.

 

The Company is an “emerging growth company” (“EGC”), that is exempt from certain financial disclosure and governance requirements for up to five years as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (the JOBS Act), that eases restrictions on the sale of securities; and increases the number of shareholders a company must have before becoming subject to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commissions (SEC’s) reporting and disclosure rules (See Emerging Growth Companies Section Below).

In order to implement our plan of operations for the next twelve-month period, we require further funding. After a twelve-month period we may need additional financing but currently do not have any arrangements for such financing.

ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer (who is acting as our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principle accounting officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

As of October 31, 2021, the end of the fiscal period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of our chief executive officer, with the participation of our chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and the operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. The officers concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report due to material weaknesses identified below. 

 

The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: domination of management by a limited individuals without adequate compensating controls, lack of a majority of outside directors on board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives and lack of well-established procedures to identify, approve and report related party transactions. These material weaknesses were identified by our Chief Executive Officer who also serves as our Chief Financial Officer in connection with the above annual evaluation.

 

Inherent limitations on effectiveness of controls

 

Internal control over financial reporting has inherent limitations which include but is not limited to the use of independent professionals for advice and guidance, interpretation of existing and/or changing rules and principles, segregation of management duties, scale of organization, and personnel factors. Internal control over financial reporting is a process which involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis, however these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process and it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that have occurred for the most recent fiscal quarter ending October 31, 2021, that have materially or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
