1.Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business
Verde Bio Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 24, 2010. Currently, the Company is in the business of oil and gas exploration and investment.
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak and any related adverse public health developments, has adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, leading to an economic downturn. The impact on the Company has not been significant but management continues to monitor the situation.
Going Concern
These consolidated 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. During the period ended January 31, 2022, the Company incurred a net loss of $2,997,728 and used cash of $1,141,157 for operating activities. As at January 31, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $13,834,473. 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. The Company will continue to rely on equity sales of its common shares in order to continue to fund business operations. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the date these financial statements are issued. 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
(a)Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company should be read in conjunction with the consolidated interim financial statements and accompany notes filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended April 30, 2021. These interim condensed consolidated interim financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods shown. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full year or for any future period.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are comprised of the records of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, IP Control Risk Inc., a company incorporated in the State of Nevada, United States. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. The Company’s fiscal year end is April 30.
(b)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.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(b)Use of Estimates (continued)
The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the collectability of accounts receivable relating to oil and gas interests which is based on the operator’s production statements, carrying value of oil and gas properties, the useful life, carrying value, and incremental borrowing rate used for right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, the fair value of convertible debentures, derivative liabilities, stock-based compensation, revenue recognition including the calculation of the reserves and the fair value of the reserves for oil and gas interests, and 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.
(c)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. As of January 31, 2022, the Company had 11,972,514,065 (April 30, 2021 –7,718,600) potentially dilutive common shares outstanding.
(d) Fair Value Measurements
The Company measures and discloses the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities using the fair value hierarchy prescribed by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The fair value hierarchy has three levels, which are based on reliable available inputs of observable data. The hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. The three-level hierarchy is defined as follows:
Level 1 – quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;
Level 2 – quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and
Level 3 – fair value measurements derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
Financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, notes payable, convertible debentures and amounts due to related parties. The fair value of cash is determined based on Level 1 inputs. There were no transfers into or out of “Level 3” during the periods ended January 31, 2022, and 2021. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective relatively short maturity dates or durations.

2.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
(d) Fair Value Measurements (continued)
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.
(j)Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These 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.
3.Right-of-Use Operating Lease Asset and Lease Liability
ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease calculated by discounting fixed lease payments over the lease term at the rate implicit in the lease or the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are increased by interest and reduced by payments each period, and the ROU asset is amortized over the lease term. For operating leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the ROU asset result in straight-line rent expense over the lease term. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term.
On March 11, 2021, the Company entered into a sublease agreement with a sublandlord regarding its office at 5750 Genesis Court, Suite 220, Frisco, Texas 75036. The agreement was treated as an operating lease in accordance with ASC 842, Lease, which resulted in initial recognition of right-of-use asset and lease liability of $122,120. The incremental borrowing rate used in the calculation is 18%.

The increase in operating expenses was due to an increase in operating activity during the period as the Company has invested in significant oil and gas properties and commenced earning royalty revenues during the current fiscal period compared to minimal operations in the prior year. Specific expenditures relating to oil and gas properties and production included $227,256 of depletion expense relating to the cost of the proportionate amount of reserves and probable reserves that were extracted to generate revenue during the current period, $31,834 of project expenditures relating to maintenance and overhead expenditures incurred on the producing oil and gas properties that do not meet the definition of capitalization under US GAAP. In addition to the specific oil and gas costs, the Company incurred overhead costs of $411,887 of general and administrative expense in the current period compared to $60,518 in the prior year and $32,450 of consulting expenses in the current period compared to $nil in the prior year, which was due to an overall increase in operating activity in the current year, as the Company had minimal oil and gas properties and limited royalty income in the prior year and thus, had limited operating activity.
Net loss for the three months ended January 31, 2022, was $718,085compared to $4,337 during the three months ended January 31, 2021. In addition to operating expenses incurred, during the three months ended January 31, 2021, the Company recorded a gain of $237,952 relating to the change in the fair value of the derivative liability relating to its convertible debentures which was offset by finance charges of $83,563 and loss on extinguishment of convertible debt of $30,455. During the three months ended January 31, 2022, the Company incurred finance charges of $272,478 relating to interest and commitment fees incurred with respect to debt and temporary equity financing.

Specific expenditures relating to oil and gas properties and production included $334,568 of depletion expense relating to the cost of the proportionate amount of reserves and probable reserves that were extracted to generate revenue during the current period, $219,126 of project expenditures relating to maintenance and overhead expenditures incurred on the producing oil and gas properties that do not meet the definition of capitalization under US GAAP, as well as a one-time impairment loss of $1,266,046 for the excess of the carrying value of the producing oil and gas properties above the fair value of the proven and probable reserves of its oil and gas properties due to a decline in the fair value of oil prices during the period. In addition to the specific oil and gas costs, the Company incurred overhead costs of $1,085,575 of general and administrative expense in the current period compared to $157,562 in the prior year, $140,224 of professional fees in the current period compared to $140,030 in the prior year, and $187,365 of consulting expenses in the current period compared to $40,800 in the prior year, which was due to an overall increase in operating activity in the current year, as the Company had minimal oil and gas properties or had limited royalty income in the prior year and thus, had limited operating activity.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As at January 31, 2022, the Company had cash of $711,131 and total assets of $5,448,599 compared to cash of $2,087,897 and total assets of $3,217,998 as at April 30, 2021. The increase in total assets was due to the purchase of an additional $905,811 of oil and gas property interests and $2,611,519 of property and equipment less accumulated depreciation of $6,280 and the decrease in cash of $1,376,766 was due to the fact that the oil and gas acquisitions were primarily paid by cash based on the Company’s existing holdings and new financing of common shares in a Regulation A filing for $0.01 per share.
The Company had total liabilities of $1,518,445 as at January 31, 2022 compared to $562,242 as at April 30, 2021. The increase in liabilities is due to warrant liabilities of $1,228,018 relating to the issuance of 125,043,566 warrants at a conversion price of $0.01 per share as part of the mezzanine financing of $1,000,000 received for the issuance of 1,000 Series C preferred stock during the current year. The increase was offset by a decrease of $214,940 relating to the conversion of the convertible preferred Series B stock, and net decreases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $12,274 for timing differences in the settlement of outstanding obligations.
As of January 31, 2022, the Company had working capital deficit of $523,777 compared to working capital of $1,723,019 at April 30, 2021. The decrease in working capital was due to the use of cash to acquire additional oil and gas properties offset by additional proceeds received from issuance of common shares during the current period.
Cash Flow from Operating Activities
During the nine months ended January 31, 2022, the Company used $1,141,157 of cash for operating activities compared with $214,648 for operating activities during the nine months ended January 31, 2021. The increase in the use of cash for operating activities was due to an overall increase in general operations as the Company purchased oil and gas properties and earned royalty revenue during the current period compared to minimal operations during the prior year.
Cash Flow from Investing Activities
During the nine months ended January 31, 2022, the Company used $5,117,944 of cash for investing activities including $2,506,425 for purchases of oil and gas properties and $2,611,519 for the purchase of land and equipment. The Company paid $3,914 for the acquisition of oil and gas properties during the nine months ended January 31 2021.
Cash Flow from Financing Activities
During the nine months ended January 31, 2022, the Company raised $4,882,335 of cash from financing activities, including $3,920,500 from the issuance of common shares and $1,000,000 of proceeds from the issuance of Series C preferred stock less repayment of $5,000 to repay the outstanding balance of a convertible debenture and $33,165 of share issuance costs. During the nine months ended January 31, 2021, the Company raised $230,283 of cash from financing activities which included $69,000 from the issuance of common shares, $137,000 from the issuance of convertible debentures, $42,250 of advances from related parties, and share subscriptions as well as $22,917 of loans payable related to the SBA paycheck protection program. The proceeds were offset by a repayment of convertible debenture of $34,884.
Going Concern
We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue any extensive acquisitions and activities. During the period ended January 31, 2022, the Company incurred a net loss of $2,997,728 and used cash of $1,141,157 for operating activities. At January 31, 2022, the Company has a working capital deficit of $523,777, and an accumulated deficit of $13,834,473. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The unaudited financial statements included in this report on Form 10-Q does 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.

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.
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.
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.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These 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.
