NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION

Business

Vicapsys Life Sciences, Inc. (“VLS”) was incorporated in the State of Florida on July 8, 1997 under the name All Product Distribution Corp. On August 19, 1998, the Company changed its name to Phage Therapeutics International, Inc. On November 13, 2007, the Company changed its name to SSGI, Inc. On September 13, 2017, the Company changed its name to Vicapsys Life Sciences, Inc., effected a 1-for-100 reverse stock split of its outstanding common stock, increased the Company’s authorized capital stock to 300,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 20,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. On December 22, 2017, pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) by and among VLS, Michael W. Yurkowsky, ViCapsys, Inc. ( “VI”) and the shareholders of VI, a private company, VI became a wholly owned subsidiary of VLS. We refer to VLS and VI together as the “Company”. VLS serves as the holding company for VI. Other than its interest in VI, VLS does not have any material assets or operations.

The Company’s strategy is to develop and commercialize, on a worldwide basis, various intellectual property rights (patents, patent applications, know how, etc.) relating to a series of encapsulated products that incorporate proprietary derivatives of the chemokine CXCL12 for creating a zone of immunoprotection around cells, tissues, organs and devices for therapeutic purposes. The product name VICAPSYN™ is the Company’s proprietary product line that is applied to transplantation therapies and related stem-cell applications in the transplantation field.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT’S PLANS

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which assumes the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company experienced a net loss of $21,832 for the six months ended June 30, 2021, we had a working capital deficit of $645,980 and an accumulated deficit of $13,914,586 as of June 30, 2021. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to operate in the normal course of business. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel COVID-19 virus as a global pandemic. The COVID-19 outbreak in the United States has resulted in a significant impact to the Company’s ability to secure additional debt or equity funding to support operations in 2020. In June 2021, the Company raised $210,000 from the sale of 840,000 shares of common stock (see Note7). Since July 1, 2021, the Company has raised $175,000 (see Note 8) and management intends to raise additional funds in 2021 to support current operations and extend research and development of its product line. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in this effort. If the Company is unable to raise additional funds in 2021, it will be forced to severely curtail all operations and research and development activities.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in this report have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the stated periods have been made. Except as described below, these adjustments consist only of normal and recurring adjustments. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the Company’s consolidated annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with a reading of the Company’s consolidated audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 17, 2021. Interim results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, are not necessarily indicative of future results for the full year. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the consolidated accounts of VLS and its’ wholly owned subsidiary VI. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates included in the financial statements, include useful the life of intangible assets, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and non-cash equity transactions and stock-based compensation.

Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original term of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company held no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020. Cash balances may, at certain times, exceed federally insured limits. If the amount of a deposit at any time exceeds the federally insured amount at a bank, the uninsured portion of the deposit could be lost, in whole or in part, if the bank were to fail.

Intangible Assets

Costs of intangible assets are accounted for through the capitalization of those costs incurred in connection with developing or obtaining such assets. Capitalized costs are included in intangible assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company’s intangible assets consist of costs incurred in connection with securing an Exclusive Patent License Agreement with The General Hospital Corporation, d/b/a Massachusetts General Hospital (“MGH”), as amended (the “License Agreement”). These costs are being amortized over the term of the License Agreement which is based on the remaining life of the related patents being licensed.

The Company reviews these intangible assets for possible impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets carrying amount may not be recoverable. In evaluating the future benefit of its intangible assets, management performs an analysis of the anticipated undiscounted future net cash flows of the intangible assets over the remaining estimated useful life. An impairment loss is recorded if the carrying value of the asset exceeds the expected future cash flows.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets at least annually or when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that the recorded value may not be recoverable for impairment and recognizes impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying values.

Equity Method Investment

The Company accounts for investments in which the Company owns more than 20% or has the ability to exercise significant influence of the investee, using the equity method in accordance with ASC Topic 323, Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures. Under the equity method, an investor initially records an investment in the stock of an investee at cost and adjusts the carrying amount of the investment to recognize the investor’s share of the earnings or losses of the investee after the date of acquisition.

The amount of the adjustment is included in the determination of net income by the investor, and such amount reflects adjustments similar to those made in preparing consolidated statements including adjustments to eliminate intercompany gains and losses, and to amortize, if appropriate, any difference between investor cost and underlying equity in net assets of the investee at the date of investment. The investment of an investor is also adjusted to reflect the investor’s share of changes in the investee’s capital. Dividends received from an investee reduce the carrying amount of the investment. A series of operating losses of an investee or other factors may indicate that a decrease in value of the investment has occurred which is other than temporary, and which should be recognized even though the decrease in value is in excess of what would otherwise be recognized by application of the equity method.

In accordance with ASC 323-10-35-20 through 35-22, the investor ordinarily shall discontinue applying the equity method if the investment (and net advances) is reduced to zero and shall not provide for additional losses unless the investor has guaranteed obligations of the investee or is otherwise committed to provide further financial support for the investee. An investor shall, however, provide for additional losses if the imminent return to profitable operations by an investee appears to be assured. For example, a material, nonrecurring loss of an isolated nature may reduce an investment below zero even though the underlying profitable operating pattern of an investee is unimpaired. If the investee subsequently reports net income, the investor shall resume applying the equity method only after its share of that net income equals the share of net losses not recognized during the period the equity method was suspended.

Equity and cost method investments are classified as investments. The Company periodically evaluates its equity and cost method investments for impairment due to declines considered to be other than temporary. If the Company determines that a decline in fair value is other than temporary, then a charge to earnings is recorded as an impairment loss in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

The Company’s equity method investment consisted of equity owned in Athens Encapsulation Inc. (“AEI”) “), a Company controlled by former directors of the Company which was given to the Company as part of an investment and restructuring agreement entered into in May 2019. In January 2021, the Company sold its’ equity investment in AEI, back to AEI for $100,000, which is included in gain on sale of equity method investment for the six months ended June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, the Company did not have any remaining equity investment in AEI. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, the Company’s proportionate share of net income was insignificant.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC 825, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments. ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of June 30, 2021.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, payables with related parties, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue recognition is accounted for under ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”) and all the related amendments. The core principle of ASC 606 requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than required under U.S. GAAP including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation.

The Company’s contracts with customers are generally on a contract and work order basis and represent obligations that are satisfied at a point in time, as defined in the new guidance, generally upon delivery or has services are provided. Accordingly, revenue for each sale is recognized when the Company has completed its performance obligations. Any costs incurred before this point in time, are recorded as assets to be expensed during the period the related revenue is recognized. The Company did not generate any revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020.

Stock Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of ASC 718 – “Compensation –Stock Compensation,” which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee, director and non-employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee, director, or non-employee is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee, director, and non-employee services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur as permitted under ASU 2016-09 Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment.

Research and Development

Costs and expenses that can be clearly identified as research and development are charged to expense as incurred. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred $4,936 and $7,243, respectively, in research and development expenses to a related party. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, research and development costs, related party, were $-0- and $94,048, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740-10, Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized to reflect the estimated future tax effects, calculated at the tax rate expected to be in effect at the time of realization. A valuation allowance related to a deferred tax asset is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of the changes in tax laws and rates of the date of enactment.

ASC 740-10 prescribes a recognition threshold that a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements and provides guidance on recognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition issues. Interest and penalties are classified as a component of interest and other expenses. To date, the Company has not been assessed, nor paid, any interest or penalties.

Uncertain tax positions are measured and recorded by establishing a threshold for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Only tax positions meeting the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold at the effective date may be recognized or continue to be recognized.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The Company reports earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and other potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. As of June 30, 2021, and 2020, the Company’s dilutive securities are convertible into 17,867,281 and 17,688,006 shares of common stock, respectively. This amount is not included in the computation of dilutive loss per share because their impact is antidilutive. The following table represents the classes of dilutive securities as of June 30, 2021, and 2020:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020.

NOTE 4 – INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Company’s intangible assets consist of costs incurred in connection with the License Agreement with MGH, as amended (See Note 5). The consideration paid for the rights included in the License Agreement was in the form of common stock shares which resulted in MGH receiving approximately 20% of the total outstanding shares of common stock of VI. The estimated value of the common stock is being amortized over the term of the License Agreement which is based on the remaining life of the related patents being licensed which is approximately 16 years.

The Company’s intangible assets consisted of the following at June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020:

 SCHEDULE OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The Company recognized $7,823 and $15,644 of amortization expense related to the License Agreement with MGH for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, and $7,863 and $15,725 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report. Historical results and trends that might appear in this Quarterly Report should not be interpreted as being indicative of future operations.

Overview

Vicapsys Life Sciences, Inc. (“VLS”) was incorporated in the State of Florida on July 8, 1997 under the name All Product Distribution Corp. On August 19, 1998, the Company changed its name to Phage Therapeutics International, Inc. On November 13, 2007, the Company changed its name to SSGI, Inc. On September 13, 2017, the Company changed its name to Vicapsys Life Sciences, Inc., effected a 1-for-100 reverse stock split of its outstanding common stock, increased the Company’s authorized capital stock to 300,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 20,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. On December 22, 2017, pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) by and among VLS, Michael W. Yurkowsky, ViCapsys, Inc. (“VI”) and the shareholders of VI, a private company, VI became a wholly owned subsidiary of VLS. We refer to VLS and VI together as the “Company”.

The Company’s strategy is to develop and commercialize, on a worldwide basis, various intellectual property rights (patents, patent applications, know how, etc.) relating to a series of encapsulated products that incorporate proprietary derivatives of the chemokine CXCL12 for creating a zone of immunoprotection around cells, tissues, organs and devices for therapeutic purposes. The product name VICAPSYN™ is the Company’s proprietary product line that is applied to transplantation therapies and related stem-cell applications in the transplantation field.

COVID-19

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the spread of a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a global pandemic. Actions have been taken by federal, state and local governmental authorities to combat the spread of COVID-19, including through issuances of “stay-at-home” directives and similar mandates for many individuals to substantially restrict daily activities and for many businesses to curtail or cease normal operations. These measures, while intended to protect human life, have led to significantly reduced economic activity. At the end of 2020, two vaccines became available. While many state and local authorities have started to reopen businesses, others have adopted additional measures to mitigate COVID-19 and the rapid development and uncertainty of the situation continues to preclude any prediction as to the ultimate impact COVID-19 will have on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operation and cash flows, which will depend largely on future developments directly or indirectly relating to the duration and scope of the COVID-19 outbreak in the United States.

Results of Operations – Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2021, and 2020

Revenues

The Company did not have any revenues from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

Operating Expenses

We classify our operating expenses into four categories: personnel costs, research and development expenses, professional fees, and general and administrative expenses. The Company’s total operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, were $72,062 and $121,832 respectively, compared to $231,615 and $596,074, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020.

The resignation of our former CEO in August 2020, resulted in a decrease in personnel costs to $22,652 from $93,653 for the three months ended June 30, 2021, and to $45,460 from $192,731 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in other operating expenses was primarily due to the negative impact of COVID-19, which hindered the Company’s ability to raise the additional capital necessary to maintain operations and continue research and development activities. The impact of COVID-19, resulted in a decrease in professional fees to $35,281 from $129,086, for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020, and a decrease to $51,363 from $286,334 for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. An increase in general and administrative expenses to $9,193 for the three months ended June 30, 2021, from $8,876 for the three months ended June 30, 2020, and a decrease to $17,766 from $22,961for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. There was also an increase in research and development expenses to $4,936 from $-0-, for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020, and a decrease in research and development expenses to $7,243 from $94,048 for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Funding Requirements

We anticipate that substantial additional equity or debt financings or funding from collaborative agreements or from foundations, government grants or other sources, will be needed to complete preclinical and animal testing necessary to file an Investigational New Drug Application with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, and that further funding beyond such amounts will be required to commence trials and other activities necessary to begin the process of development and regulatory approval of a product for the continued growth of the Company. Additional capital will also be required for the clinical development of the recently discovered anti-fibrotic applications and corporate partnerships will be necessary to move Company products into advanced clinical development and commercialization. We also anticipate our cash expenditures will increase as we continue to operate as a publicly traded entity.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2021, we had $170,624 of cash on hand and an accumulated deficit of $13,914,586.

We do not believe that we have enough cash on hand to operate our business during the next 12 months. We anticipate we will need to raise an additional $1 million through the issuance of debt or equity securities to sustain base operations during the next 12 months, excluding development work. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional funding on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership interests of our common stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our common stockholders. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include conversion discounts or covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we raise additional funds through government or other third-party funding, marketing and distribution arrangements or other collaborations, or strategic alliances or licensing arrangements with third parties, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our future revenue streams, products or therapeutic candidates or to grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us.

To date, we have financed our operations through our sale of equity and debt securities. Failure to generate revenue or to raise funds could cause us to go out of business, which would result in the complete loss for investors in our Company.

We have no revenues as of the date of this quarterly report, and no substantial revenues are anticipated until we have implemented our full plan of operations. To implement our strategy to grow and expand per our business plan, we intend to generate working capital via a private placement of equity or debt securities, or secure a loan. If we are unsuccessful in raising capital, we could be required to cease business operations and investors would lose all of their investment.

In January 2021, the Company sold Company sold its’ equity investment in AEI, back to AEI for $100,000, which is included in other income for the six months ended June 30, 2021. In June 2021, the Company entered into Security Purchase Agreements (“SPA’s) with select accredited investors in connection with a private offering by the Company to raise a maximum of $1,000,000 through the sale of common stock of the Company at $0.25 per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company has raised an aggregate amount of $210,000 from the sale of 840,000 shares of common stock, and since June 30, 2021, the Company has raised an additional $175,000 from the sale of 700,000 shares of common stock as of the date these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. We will still require additional capital to meet our liquidity needs.

Additionally, we will have to meet all the financial disclosure and reporting requirements associated with being a publicly reporting company. Our management will have to spend additional time on policies and procedures to make sure our Company is compliant with various regulatory requirements.

This additional corporate governance time required of management could limit the amount of time management has to implement our business plan and may impede the speed of our operations.

Working Capital Deficit

Cash Flows

Cash activity for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020 is summarized as follows:

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $170,624 of cash on hand.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Regulation S-K Item 303(a)(4) during the periods presented, investments in special-purpose entities or undisclosed borrowings or debt. Additionally, we are not a party to any derivative contracts or synthetic leases.

Contractual Obligations

MGH License Agreement

The Company executed a License Agreement with MGH, a principal stockholder. The License Agreement also requires VI to pay to MGH a one (1%) royalty rate on net sales related to the first license sub-field, which is the treatment of Type 1 Diabetes. Future sub-fields shall carry a reasonable royalty rate, consistent with industry standards, to be negotiated at the time the first such royalty payment shall become due with respect to the applicable Products and Processes (as defined in the License Agreement). The License Agreement additionally requires VI to pay to MGH a $1.0 million “success payment” within 60 days after the first achievement of total net sales of Product or Process equal or exceed $100,000,000 in any calendar year and $4,000,000 within sixty (60) days after the first achievement of total net sales of Products or process equal or exceed $250,000,000 in any calendar year. The Company is also required to reimburse MGH’s expenses in connection with the preparation, filing, prosecution and maintenance of all patent tights.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements and related disclosures requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate, on an ongoing basis, our estimates and judgments, including those related to the useful life of the assets. We base our estimates on historical experience and assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying our most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results that we report in our consolidated financial statements. The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), considers an entity’s most critical accounting policies to be those policies that are both most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results of operations and those that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain at the time of estimation.

We believe the following critical accounting policies, among others, require significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

Our significant accounting policies are described in more detail in the notes to our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, included in the Company’s Annual Report filed on Form 10-K with the SEC on September 17, 2021.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K (§ 229.305(e)), the Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item as it is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1).

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

In designing and evaluating the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired objectives, and the Company necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures.

The Company’s management, including its Chairman of the Board and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2021, and concluded that the Company has a material weakness in disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2021.

The Company has an ineffective control environment due to a lack of internal resources with expertise to determine entries and disclosures related to some of the Company’s more complex equity transactions. Management believes this lack of internal expertise has been historically mitigated by continuing to retain consultants with this expertise when needed. This material weakness in the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures will be further remediated with future capital raises.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended June 30, 2021, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

The Company is not a party to any pending legal proceeding, nor is the Company’s property the subject of a pending legal proceeding. None of the Company’s directors, officers or affiliates are involved in a proceeding adverse to our business or has a material interest adverse to the Company’s business.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

As a smaller reporting company, the Company is not required to disclose material changes to the risk factors that were contained in the Company’s Form 10 registration statement originally filed with the SEC on February 12, 2020, as amended (the “Form 10”). However, in light of the recent coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, set forth below is a risk factor relating to COVID-19. Other than as set forth below, as of the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes to the risk factors faced by the Company from those previously disclosed in the Form 10.

COVID-19

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. We are monitoring this closely, and although operations have not been materially affected by the COVID-19 outbreak to date, the ultimate duration and severity of the outbreak and its impact on the economic environment and our business is uncertain. Accordingly, while we do not anticipate an impact on our operations, we cannot estimate the duration of the pandemic and potential impact on our business. In addition, a severe or prolonged economic downturn could result in a variety of risks to our business, including a possible delay in our ability to raise money. At this time, the Company is unable to estimate the impact of this event on its operations.

None.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES.
