1. | Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business |
The company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 21, 2009 under the name Mokita Exploration, Ltd. (the “Company”). On February 27, 2014, there was a change of control of the Company. On February 28, 2014, our board of directors and a majority of holders of the Company’s voting securities approved a change of name of the Company to MediJane Holdings Inc. A Certificate of Amendment to effect the change of name was filed and became effective with the Nevada Secretary of State on March 4, 2014. A Certificate of Correction was subsequently filed with the Nevada Secretary of State on March 6, 2014 to correct a spelling error in the Company’s new name. These amendments have been reviewed by FINRA and were approved for filing with an effective date of March 12, 2014. The name change became effective with the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board at the opening of trading on March 12, 2014 under our new ticker symbol “MJMD”.
On March 8, 2017 the Company filed an Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) with the Secretary of State of Nevada. As a result of the Amendment, the Company changed its name with the State of Nevada from MediJane Holdings, Inc. to Stem Bioscience, Inc.
In May 2018 the Company again changed its name to Phoenix Life Sciences International Limited. A Certificate of Amendment to effect the change of name was filed and became effective with the Nevada Secretary of State on May 31, 2018. The name change was accepted by FINRA and became effective with the Over-the- Counter Bulletin Board on November 2, 2018 with the trading symbol “PLSI”.
On February 27, 2014, after the change of control, the Company became a sales and distribution company focused on cannabinoid infused products for the treatment of medical conditions.
On January 5, 2015, the Company underwent a change in control following the issuance of 276,000,000 common shares to Phoenix Bio Pharmaceuticals Corporation pursuant to a license agreement. On November 4, 2015, these shares were exchanged for 2,000,000 Series B Preferred Shares.
The business was then changed to only focus on Cannabidiol (CBD) products. CBD is a non-psychotropic cannabinoid that is not restricted as part of the U.S. Controlled Substances Act (CSA), as defined under the 2014 U.S Farming Bill to be derivatives of the Industrial Hemp plant that contains less than 0.3% tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). The company will contract out the manufacturing of the products. Phoenix Bio Pharmaceuticals Corporation and other groups may manufacture our products under our license agreement.
The Company follows the accounting guidance outlines in the Financial Accounting Standards Board Codification guidelines. The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted principles for interim financial information and with the items under Regulation S-K required by the instructions to Form 10-Q. They may not include all information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed here in, there have been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to the financial statements for the year ended February 28, 2017 included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 9, 2019. The interim unaudited financial statements presented herein are condensed and should be read in conjunction with those financial statements included in the Form 10-K. The interim disclosures generally do not repeat those in the annual statements. Management’s opinion that all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods have been made, and a statement that all adjustments are of a normal recurring nature or a description of the nature and amount of any adjustments other than normal recurring adjustments. Operating results for nine months ended November 30, re not necessarily indicative results that may be expected for the year ended February 28, 2018.

Going Concern
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company’s total operating expenditure plan for the following twelve months will require significant cash resources to meet the goals of its business plan. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its management, and its ability to identify future investment opportunities and obtain the necessary debt or equity financing, and generating profitable operations from the Company’s future operations. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Basis of Presentation – The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The Company’s fiscal year end is February 28 or 29.
Basis of Consolidation – The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Phoenix Life Sciences International Limited. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Stock Split -on October 21, 2015 the Company’s Board of Directors declared a 1 for 10,000 reverse stock split on its common stock as of a record date of October 22, 2015. The effect of the stock split decreased the number of shares of common stock outstanding from 501,242,594 to 50,125. All common share and per common share data in these financial statements and related notes here to have been retroactively adjusted to account for the effect of the stock split for all periods presented. The total number of authorized common shares on the par value thereof was not changed by the split.
Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
7 |
A significant item that requires management’s estimates and assumptions is the valuation of intangible assets, valuation allowances for income tax, valuation of derivatives instruments and accrued liabilities, among others. Although management believes these estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ from these estimates.
Cash and cash equivalents – The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. At November 30, 2017 and February 28, 2017, the Company did not hold any cash equivalents.
Accounts receivable – Accounts receivable consists of trade accounts arising in the normal course of business. No interest is charged on past due accounts. Accounts receivable are carried at the original invoice amount less a reserve for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding amounts on a monthly basis.
Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share – The Company computes net 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 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 and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. 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. At February 28, 2017 and November 30, 2017, the Company had outstanding stock options outstanding, the Company does not deem these options to be dilutive as the exercise price exceeds the current fair market value of the Company’s common stock. At November 30, 2017 and 2014, the Company had did not have potentially dilutive shares outstanding.
Financial Instruments – Pursuant to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, an entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 – Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.
Level 3 – Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
8 |
The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, amounts due to related parties, and convertible debenture. Pursuant to ASC 820, the fair value of our financial instruments are determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. We believe that the recorded values of all of our other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.
Derivative Financial Instruments – The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks.
The Company reviews the terms of the common stock, warrants and convertible debt it issues to determine whether there are embedded derivative instruments, including embedded conversion options, which are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as derivative financial instruments. In circumstances where the host instrument contains more than one embedded derivative instrument, including the conversion option, that is required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single, compound derivative instrument.
Bifurcated embedded derivatives are initially recorded at fair value and are then revalued at each reporting date with changes in the fair value reported as non-operating income or expense. The Company uses a Black-Scholes model for valuation of the derivative. When the equity or convertible debt instruments contain embedded derivative instruments that are to be bifurcated and accounted for as liabilities, the total proceeds received are first allocated to the fair value of all the bifurcated derivative instruments. The remaining proceeds, if any, are then allocated to the host instruments themselves, usually resulting in those instruments being recorded at a discount from their face value.
The discount from the face value of the convertible debt, together with the stated interest on the instrument, is amortized over the life of the instrument through periodic charges to interest expense, using the effective interest method.
Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether net cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within the 12 months of the balance sheet date.
Comprehensive Loss – ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. As at November 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company has no items that represent a comprehensive loss and, therefore, has not included a schedule of comprehensive loss in the financial statements.
Stock-based Compensation – The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Based Compensation and ASC 505-50 - Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
9 |
The fair value of each share based payment is estimated on the measurement date using the Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions, which are determined at the beginning of each year and utilized in all calculations for that year:
Risk-Free Interest Rate. We utilized the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant with a term consistent with the expected term of our awards.
Expected Volatility. We calculate the expected volatility based on a volatility index of peer companies as we did not have sufficient historical market information to estimate the volatility of our own stock.
Dividend Yield. We have not declared a dividend on its common stock since its inception and have no intentions of declaring a dividend in the foreseeable future and therefore used a dividend yield of zero.
Expected Term. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options are expected to be outstanding. We estimated the expected term of stock options by using the simplified method. For warrants, the expected term represents the actual term of the warrant.
Forfeitures. Estimates of option forfeitures are based on our experience. We will adjust our estimate of forfeitures over the requisite service period based on the extent to which actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from such estimates. Changes in estimated forfeitures will be recognized through a cumulative catch-up adjustment in the period of change and will also impact the amount of compensation expense to be recognized in future periods.
Revenue Recognition – The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 13 when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists and delivery has occurred, provided the sale is fixed or determinable and collection is probable. The Company assesses whether the sale is fixed and determinable based on the payment terms associated with the transaction. If a sale is based upon a variable such as acceptance by the customer, the Company accounts for the sale as not being fixed and determinable. In these cases, the Company defers revenue and recognizes it when it becomes due and payable.
The Company assesses the probability of collection based on a number of factors, including past transaction history with the customer and the current financial condition of the customer. If the Company determines that collection of a fee is not reasonably assured, revenue is deferred until the time collection becomes reasonably assured. Significant management judgment and estimates must be made and used in connection with the revenue recognized in any accounting period. Material differences may result in the amount and timing of our revenue for any period if our management made different judgments or utilized different estimates.
Shipping and Handling costs – shipping and handling costs are included in cost of sales in the Statements of Operations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements – The recent accounting pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations
Reclassifications – Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported losses, total assets or stockholders equity.
10 |
3. | Variable Interest Entity |
The Company follows the guidelines in FASB Codification of ASC 810 “Consolidation” which indicates “a legal entity that is deemed to be a business need not be evaluated by a reporting entity to determine if the legal entity is a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”)” unless any one of four conditions exist:
- | The reporting entity, its related parties, or both participated significantly in the design or redesign of the legal entity; | |
- | The legal entity is designed so that substantially all of its activities involve or are conducted on behalf of the reporting entity and its related parties; | |
- | The reporting entity and its related parties provide more than half of the total of the equity, subordinated debt, and other forms of subordinated financial support to the legal entity; or | |
- | The activities of the legal entity are primarily related to the securitizations or other forms of asset-backed financings or single-lessee leasing arrangements. |
A VIE is an entity that either (a) has insufficient equity to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or (b) has equity investors who lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. A VIE is consolidated by its primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary has both the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE. If we determine that we have operating power and the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits, we consolidate the VIE as the primary beneficiary, and if not, we do not consolidate. The Company has not identified any VIEs as of November 30, 2017.
4. | Intangible Assets |
Effective September 1, 2014, the Company changed its method of computing amortization from a sales percentage method to the straight-line method for the intangible assets. An assessment of useful life and / or discounted cash flow of the intangible asset is made and where the value is overstated the value is impaired.
5. | Income Taxes |
The deferred tax assets or liabilities represent the future tax benefits or cost of those differences. The Company’s principal deferred tax items arise from net operating losses. Net operating losses approximate $18,900,000 which expire in the years 2030 through 2036. The net operating loss results in a deferred tax asset of $2,835,000. As future earnings are uncertain, the Company has provided a valuation allowance for the entire amount of the deferred tax asset.
The Company is required to evaluate the tax positions taken in the course of preparing its tax returns to determine whether tax positions are “more likely than not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority “More likely than not” is defined as greater than a 50% chance. The Company is delinquent on nearly all of its tax filings. As a result, there are presently no uncertain tax position and no reserves for uncertain tax positions.
11 |
The Company has no unrecognized tax benefits at February 28, 2017. The Company’s income tax returns are subject to examination by federal and state tax authorities. Due to the failure to file its tax returns, all prior tax years are open to examination. The Company recognizes interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as part of the income tax provision and would include accrued interest and penalties with the related tax liability in the balance sheet. There were no interest and penalties paid or accrued during the years ended February 28, 2017.
6. | CV Sciences, Inc. FKA CannaVest Corp. |
On December 23, 2014, the Company entered into a convertible promissory note for $1,200,000 with CannaVest Corp.

12. | Convertible Promissory Note |
On June 24, 2014, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with Typenex Co-Investment, LLC, a Utah limited liability company. Under this agreement, the Company has issued a secured convertible promissory note in the original principal amount of $1,105,000, deliverable in eleven tranches (the “Typenex Note”). On the closing date, Typenex delivered the initial cash purchase price of $150,000, plus any interest, costs, fees or charges accrued under the Typenex Note, including the original issue discount of $20,000. The outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest on the Typenex Note is convertible at any time into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $1.00, subject to adjustment as described below (the “Lender Conversion Price”). As of June 24, 2014, the Company evaluated the Beneficial Conversion Feature under this note and determined as of June 24, 2014, there was no beneficial conversion feature as the Lender Conversion Price exceeded the fair market value of the Company’s common stock.
As of November 30, 2014, the company has received net proceeds of $135,000 related to this convertible promissory note, representing $150,000 less financing costs of $15,000. During the nine months ended November 30, 2014 the Company has recorded interest expense of $7,725, and amortization expense of $554,413 related to the amortization of the original issue discount and the full-value of the warrant discussed below ($552,500).
Each subsequent tranche will be in the amount of $85,000, plus any interest, costs, fees or charges accrued thereon under the terms of the Typenex Note, including the original issuer discount of $8,500. Each tranche will be accompanied by its own secured investor note (the “Investor Notes”). The Company has agreed to pay $5,000 to cover Typenex’s legal fees, accounting costs, due diligence, monitoring and other transaction costs in connection with the purchase and sale of the Typenex Note. All loans received bear an interest rate of 10% per annum. The loan is due 23 months after the initial cash purchase price is delivered to the Company. Typenex has pledged a 40% membership interest in Typenex Medical, LLC to secure its obligations under all of the Typenex Notes.
A warrant to purchase shares of the Company has been issued to Typenex as of June 24, 2014. This warrant grants Typenex the ability to purchase a number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company’s stock, par value $0.001, equal to $552,500 divided by the market price. This warrant is issued pursuant to the terms of the securities purchase agreement as described above.

Provided there is an outstanding balance, the Company will pay an installment amount equal to $61,388.89 plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the installment due date, which is six months after the initial loan disbursement. This installment amount is the maximum that must be paid on any given installment due date, and is limited by the amounts owed. This amount can be converted at the lesser of either the lender conversion price or at 70% of the average of the three lowest closing bid prices in the 20 trading days immediately preceding the applicable conversion. Should the average trading price be less than $0.35 during any such period, then the conversion factor will be reduced to 65% for all future conversion, additionally the conversion price will be reduced by 5% if the Company’s common stock is not available for DWAC. Should the Company decide to prepay this amount, there is a prepayment premium equal to 125% of the outstanding balance of the Typenex Note. Should the prepayment premium not be paid within 2 days of the prepayment notice, the Company forfeits its right to prepay the Typenex Note.
Under this agreement, Typenex has the right at any time after the purchase price date until the outstanding balance has been paid in full to convert any or all of the outstanding balance into shares of the Company’s common stock under the following formula: the number of shares issued equals the amount being converted divided by $1. These shares must be delivered to Typenex within three trading days of the conversion notice being given to the Company. Should any shares be sold to Typenex or any third party at a value that is less than the effective lender conversion price, then the lender conversion price will be reduced to equal such lower issuance price. The effective lender conversion price will also be adjusted as needed upon any forward or reverse split of the Company’s shares. Should the Company fail to deliver the shares in a timely manner, a late fee of the greater of $500 per day and 2% of the applicable lender conversion share value rounded to the nearest multiple of $100 will be assed for each day after the third that the Company is late (though not exceeding 200% of the applicable lender conversion share value.
In the event of a default, the Typenex Note may be accelerated by Typenex by providing written notice to the Company. The outstanding balance is immediately due and payable at the greater of the outstanding balance divided by the installment conversion price, or the default effect, which is calculated by multiplying the conversion eligible outstanding balance by 15% for each major default or 5% for each minor default and then adding the resulting product to the outstanding balance as of the date of default. In addition, an interest rate of the lesser of 22% per annum (or the maximum rate permitted under law) will be applied to the outstanding balance. Typenex is prohibited from owning more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares, unless the market capitalization of the Company’s common stock is less than $10,000,000, in which case Typenex is prohibited from owning more than 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares.
On a date that is 23 trading days from each date that the Company delivers conversion shares to Typenex, there is a true-up date in which the Company will deliver additional shares if the installment conversion price on that date is less than the installment conversion price used in the applicable installment notice. These additional shares will be equal to the difference between the number of shares that would be delivered to Typenex at the time of the true-up date and the amount originally delivered.\

Notice of Default – on January 9, 2015, the Company received a Notice of Default from Typenex under the Convertible Promissory Note described in Note 12 above. In the letter, the noteholder described two major defaults where the Company failed to meet its obligations under the Typenex Note. The first default was triggered on December 16, 2014 related to a request from the noteholder to increase the number of shares reserved for issuance under the Typenex Note on the books of the Company’s transfer agent. The second default was triggered on December 27, 2014, when the Company failed to make its first installment payment of $61,888.89 according to the terms of the Typenex Note. Each default triggered a penalty of 115% of the then outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest and triggers the interest rate to 22%. As of January 9, 2015, the outstanding principal, accrued interest and accrued penalties on the Typenex Note was $239,483.61. On January 23, 2015, the Company satisfied its first default by instructing its transfer agent to reserve a total of 50,925,000 shares of common stock covering the potential conversion of the original principal value of the Typenex Note ($1,100,000) plus common shares issuable upon the exercise of warrants underlying the Typenex Note. On February 12, 2015, the Company received a notice from Typenex waiving the penalties on the December 16, 2014 default and waived $26,755.16 of penalties imposed on December 16, 2014. Under the terms of the Typenex Note, the Lenders Conversion Price will reset to 60% of the average of the three lowest closing bid prices of the Company’s common stock in the 20 days prior to conversion. As of December 16, 2014, the Company has re-evaluated the beneficial conversion feature under the Typenex Note and has recorded a liability for the beneficial conversion feature totaling $230,392. This discount will be amortized over the remaining life of the Typenex Note.
On February 3, 2015, the Company exercised its borrower offset right under the Typenex Note. Through this offset right, the Company is entitled to deduct and offset any amount owing by Typenex under the initial securities purchase agreement dated June 24, 2014 from any amount owed by the Company under the note. The combined balance of the secured investor notes and the investor notes as of the January 28, 2015 offset date was $890,800. In addition, the note balance prior to the offset included $85,000 of unearned original issue discounts.
In conjunction with the Company’s exercise of its offset right, the Company and Typenex each hereby acknowledge that the secured investor notes and the investor notes were offset against the Company balances owed under the note as of the offset date, and as a result thereof, each of the secured investor notes and the investor notes is deemed to have been paid in full and are now cancelled and terminated and the Company balance owed under the note has been reduced to $218,028.47 as of the offset date. Additionally, the Company specifically acknowledges that Typenex has no further obligations under any of the secured investor notes and investor notes.
Further, the Company acknowledges that the investor pledge agreement, dated June 24, 2014, and all security interests granted thereunder with respect to the collateral (as defined in the investor pledge agreement) have terminated and all such security interests shall be deemed released.
Notice of Conversion – Between March 1, 2017 and November 30, 2017 the Company has received no conversion notices from its noteholder on the Typenex Note to convert principal on the Typenex Warrant into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a market price as defined by the Typenex Note.

Going Concern
We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon the commencement of the sale of our products and obtaining financing to increase the production and development of our products. For these reasons, our auditors stated in their report on our audited financial statements that they have substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern without further financing.
Future Financings
We will continue to rely on equity sales of our common shares in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of the equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund planned acquisitions and exploration activities.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no significant 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 are material to stockholders.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. A complete summary of these policies is included in the notes to our financial statements. In general, management’s estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.

Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
Stock-based Compensation. The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Based Compensation and ASC 505-50 - Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.
Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 13 when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists and delivery has occurred, provided the fee is fixed or determinable and collection is probable. The Company assesses whether the fee is fixed and determinable based on the payment terms associated with the transaction. If a fee is based upon a variable such as acceptance by the customer, the Company accounts for the fee as not being fixed and determinable. In these cases, the Company defers revenue and recognizes it when it becomes due and payable. Up-front engagement fees are recorded as deferred revenue and amortized to income on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreement, although the fee is due and payable at the time the agreement is signed or upon annual renewal. Payments related to substantive, performance-based milestones in an agreement are recognized as revenue upon the achievement of the milestones as specified in the underlying agreement when they represent the culmination of the earnings process.
The Company assesses the probability of collection based on a number of factors, including past transaction history with the customer and the current financial condition of the customer. If the Company determines that collection of a fee is not reasonably assured, revenue is deferred until the time collection becomes reasonably assured. Significant management judgment and estimates must be made and used in connection with the revenue recognized in any accounting period. Material differences may result in the amount and timing of our revenue for any period if our management made different judgments or utilized different estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The recent accounting pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
Contractual Obligations
As a “smaller reporting company”, we are not required to provide tabular disclosure obligations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not applicable for smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
During the period ended November 30, 2017, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of November 30, 2014. We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded such controls and procedures to be not effective as of November 30, 2017 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Remediation Plan
We will aggressively recruit experienced professionals to ensure that we include all necessary disclosures in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although we believe that this corrective step will enable management to conclude that the internal controls over our financial reporting are effective when the staff is trained, we cannot assure you these steps will be sufficient. We may be required to expend additional resources to identify, assess and correct any additional weaknesses in internal control.
We are unable to remedy our controls related
to the inadequate segregation of duties until we receive financing to hire additional employees.

Legal proceedings
Except as disclosed below, the Company, is not involved in any material active or pending legal proceedings. The Company has entered into settlement agreements with all known potential or asserted claims. The Company is currently involved in two disputes relating to deposits being due on proposed property purchases. The attorneys representing the Company in Vanuatu maintain that the claims are spurious, as the related contracts were never validly executed and at no time were unconditional, negating any obligation by the Company to pay the deposit. As at the date of this filing, the Company has moved to dismiss both claims, and is confident that the matters will be resolved in its favor.
