Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements

 

Note 1 – Organization and Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

 

Kaival Brands Innovations Group, Inc. (the “Company,” the “Registrant,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), formerly known as Quick Start Holdings, Inc. (we, us, our, the “Company,” or the “Registrant”), was incorporated on September 4, 2018 in the State of Delaware.

 

USSE Corp. and USSE Delaware Merger

 

USSE Corp., a Nevada Corporation (“USSE Corp.”Nevada”), formerly known as Quick Start Holdings, Inc., was incorporated with the Nevada Secretary of State on July 8, 1998 under the original name C&A Restaurants, Inc. (“C&A Restaurants”). On June 15, 2009, C&A Restaurants changed its name to USSE Corp.

 

Effective September 19, 2018, USSE Corp.Nevada re-domiciled from Nevada to Delaware pursuant to a merger of USSE Corp.Nevada with and into USSE Delaware, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“USSE Delaware” or “Predecessor”), with USSE Delaware as the surviving entity (the “Re-domestication Merger”). Each share of USSE Corp.’s capitalNevada’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of the Re-domestication Merger was automatically converted into one fully paid and nonassessable share of USSE Delaware.

 

Immediately following the Re-domestication Merger, USSE Delaware was authorized to issue up to 1,005,000,000 shares, which consisted of: (i) 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which 66,397,574 shares were issued and outstanding at such date; (ii) 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which (a) 1,000,000 shares were designated as Convertible Series A, all of which were issued and outstanding at that date; and (b) 500,000 shares were designated as Convertible Series B, of which 71,700 Convertible Series B preferred shares were issued and outstanding at that date.

 

Holding Company Reorganization

 

On September 4, 2018, USSE Delaware acquired 1,000 shares of common stock of the Company, which represented 100% of the Company’s then-outstanding shares of common stock, for no consideration, resulting in the Company becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of USSE Delaware. Also, immediately prior to the Holding Company Reorganization (as defined below), USSE Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“USSE Merger Sub”), was ourthe Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary.

 

Effective onOn September 19, 2018 (the “Effective Time”), and in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 251(g) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”), USSE Delaware, our then parent, merged with and into USSE Merger Sub, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of USSE Delaware and ourthe Company’s direct wholly-owned subsidiary merged with and into USSE Delaware, asthe Company’s then parent (the “Holding Company Reorganization”). USSE Delaware was the surviving corporation and ourthe Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary (“Holding Company Reorganization”). At the Effective Time, and as a result of the Holding Company Reorganization, the separate corporate existence ofsubsidiary. USSE Merger Sub ceased, and USSE Delaware also changed its name to USSE Corp., which then became our wholly-owned subsidiary. The following the Holding Company Reorganization also resulted in the conversion of securities of USSE Delaware into identical and equivalent securities of the Company and the stockholders of USSE Delaware became the stockholders of the Company.Reorganization.

 

Upon completion of the Holding Company Reorganization, by virtue of the merger, and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, each share of USSE Delaware’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Holding Company Reorganization was automatically converted into one validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable share of the Company’s common stock. Additionally, each share of USSE Delaware’s preferred stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into one validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable share of the Company’s preferred stock, having the same designations, rights, powers, and preferences, and the qualifications, limitation,limitations, and restrictions thereof, as the corresponding share of USSE Delaware’s preferred stock. Each share of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding and held by USSE Delaware immediately prior to the Effective Time was cancelled.

 

Additionally, any shares held by the Company in the Predecessor were cancelled. This resulted in the Company being authorized to issue up to 1,005,000,000 shares, which consisted of: (i) 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which 66,397,574 shares were issued and outstanding; (ii) 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which (a) 1,000,000 shares were designated as Convertible Series A, all of which were issued and outstanding; and (b) 500,000 shares were designated as Convertible Series B, of which 71,700 shares of Convertible Series B preferred stock were issued and outstanding.

Post-Holding Company Reorganization

 

On October 19, 2018, the Company issued 500,000,000 shares of restricted common stock and 400,000 shares of Convertible Series B Preferred Stock to GMRZ Holdings LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“GRMZ”), for services rendered to the Company.

 

Commensurate with the filing of ourthe Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State on October 22, 2018, every issued and outstanding share of Convertible Series A preferred stock was converted into 1.25 shares of common stock with shareholders’ economic rights preserved. Additionally, at the same time, every share of Convertible Series B preferred stock, issued and outstanding was converted into ten shares of common stock with stockholders’ economic rights adversely affected in the conversion. Immediately following the conversion of the aforementioned shares, and upon filing of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the authorized and unissued shares of Convertible Series A and Convertible Series B preferred stock were cancelled. As of October 22, 2018, Convertible Series A and Series B preferred stock were removed from the status of authorized but unissued preferred stock.

 

On February 6, 2019, the Company entered into a non-binding Share Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”), by and among the Company, GMRZ, and Kaival Holdings, LLC (formerly known as Kaival Brands Innovations Group, LLC,LLC), a Delaware limited liability company (formerly known as Kaival Brands Innovations Group, LLC) (“KBIG”KH”), pursuant to which, on February 20, 2019, GMRZ sold 504,000,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock, representing approximately 88.06 percent of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock, to KBIG,KH, and KBIGKH paid GMRZ consideration in the amount set forth in the Agreement (the “Purchase Price”). The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement resulted in a change in control of the Company, with KBIGKH becoming the Company’s largest controlling stockholder. The sole members of KBIGKH are Nirajkumar Patel and Eric Mosser. The Purchase Price was paid with personal funds of the members of KBIG.KH.

 

Effective July 12, 2019, we changed our corporate name from Quick Start Holdings, Inc. to Kaival Brands Innovations Group, Inc. The name change was effected through a parent/subsidiary short-form merger of Kaival Brands Innovations Group, Inc., our wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary formed solely for the purpose of the name change, with and into us. We were the surviving entity.

On the effective date of the merger, our name was changed to “Kaival Brands Innovations Group, Inc.” and our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Charter”), was further amended to reflect our new legal name. There were no other changes to our Charter.

Currently, we have 572,364,574 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding. KBIG,KH, which is owned and controlled by Nirajkumar Patel and Eric Mosser, is our controlling stockholder, owning 504,000,000 shares of our restricted common stock.

 

As of January 31, 2019,During the quarter ended April 30, 2020, the Company had not yet commenced any business operations.

 

Description of Business

The Company is focused on growing and incubating innovative and profitable products into mature, dominant brands. During the quarter ended April 30, 2020, the Company commenced business operations as a result of becoming an exclusive distributor of certain electronic nicotine delivery systems and related components (the “Products”) manufactured by Bidi Vapor, LLC (“Bidi”), a Florida limited liability company, a related party company that is also owned by Nirajkumar Patel, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company.

On March 9, 2020, the Company entered into an exclusive distribution agreement (the “Distribution Agreement”) with Bidi, a related party company, which Distribution Agreement was amended and restated on May 21, 2020 (the “A&R Distribution Agreement”) in order to clarify some of the provisions. Pursuant to the A&R Distribution Agreement, Bidi granted the Company an exclusive worldwide right to distribute the Products for sale and resale to both retail level customers and non-retail level customers. Currently, the Products consist primarily of the “Bidi Stick.”


In connection with the A&R Distribution Agreement, the Company entered into non-exclusive sub-distribution agreements, which were subsequently amended and restated by the parties in order to clarify certain provisions (all such agreements, as amended and restated, are collectively referred to as the “A&R Sub-Distribution Agreements”), whereby the Company appointed the counterparties as non-exclusive sub-distributors. Pursuant to the A&R Sub-Distribution Agreements, the sub-distributors agreed to purchase for resale the Products in such quantities as they should need to properly service non-retail customers within the continental United States (the “Territory”).

On March 31, 2020, the Company entered into a service agreement (the “Service Agreement”) with QuikfillRx LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“QuikfillRx”), whereby QuikfillRx has agreed to provide the Company with certain services and support relating to sales management, website development and design, graphics, content, public communication, social media, management and analytics, and market and other research (collectively, the “Services”). The Services will be provided by QuikfillRx as requested from time to time by the Company.

Recent Developments

In January 2020, the World Health Organization (the “WHO”) announced a global health emergency because of a new strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) originating in Wuhan, China and the risks to the international community as the virus spread globally beyond its point of origin. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic based on the rapid increase in global exposure.

As of the date of issuance of these unaudited financial statements, our operations have not been significantly impacted. No impairments were recorded as of April 30, 2020 and no triggering events or changes in circumstances had occurred. However, the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve subsequent to the three and six months ended April 30, 2020 and as of the date these unaudited financial statements are issued. As such, the full magnitude of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the resulting impact, if any, on our financial condition, liquidity, and future results of operations is uncertain. Management is actively monitoring the global situation on our financial condition, liquidity, operations, suppliers, industry, and customers. Reduced demand for products or impaired ability to meet customer demand (including as a result of disruptions at our suppliers) could have a material adverse effect on our business operations and financial performance. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic and the global responses to curb its spread, we are not presently able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity for the remainder of fiscal year 2020 and beyond. As of the date of this filing, our recently commenced business operations have not been impacted.

Significant Accounting Policies

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Receivables are stated at cost, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on management’s assessment of the collectability of accounts receivables. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the amount of the allowance and the Company considers the historical level of credit losses and collection history and applies percentages to aged receivable categories. The Company makes judgments about the creditworthiness of debtors based on ongoing credit evaluations, and monitors current economic trends that might impact the level of credit losses in the future. If the financial condition of the debtors were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make payments, a larger allowance may be required. As of April 30, 2020, the Company did not have any allowance for doubtful accounts based on management’s assessment.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost includes all costs of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. As of April 30, 2020, the inventories only consisted of finished goods.

Revenue Recognition

The Company adopted ASC 606,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), in the second quarter of fiscal year 2020, as this was the first quarter that the Company generated revenues. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when a customer obtains control of promised goods, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for the goods. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify the contracts with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods it transfers to the customer.

Products Revenue

The Company generates products revenue from the sale of the Products (as defined above) to retail and non-retail customers. The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time based on management’s evaluation of when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied and control of the Products has been transferred to the customer. In most situations, transfer of control is considered complete when the products have been shipped to the customer. The Company’s sales arrangements for retail sales usually require full prepayment before delivery of the Products. The advance payment is not considered a significant financing component because the period between the Company transfers a promised good to a customer and when the customer pays for that good is short. The Company offers credit sales arrangements to non-retail (or wholesale) customers and monitors the collectability of each credit sales periodically.

Income Tax

Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the recorded book basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting. Deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred taxes are also recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future taxable income and tax credits that are available to offset future federal income taxes. The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flow. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant to ASC 740.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers(ASC 606),” and issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance or implementation guidance between August 2015 and November 2017 within ASU 2015-04, ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10, ASU 2016-12, ASU 2016-20, ASU 2017-13, and ASU 2017-14 (collectively, including ASU 2014-09, “ASC 606”). Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services and is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The Company adopted the standard from the second quarter of fiscal year 2020. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have any impact on our previously reported consolidated financial statements in any prior period nor did it result in a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings.

In April, in connection with the A&R Distribution Agreement, the Company entered into the A&R Sub-Distribution Agreements with certain third-party counterparties, whereby we appointed such counterparties as non-exclusive sub-distributors.

With these agreements in effect, the Company has established sources of revenue to cover its operating costs and achieved net income of $2,782,900 during the six months ended April 30, 2020. As of April 30, 2020, the Company hasa positive working capital of $2,765,171.

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

 

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is designed to provide a reader of the financial statements with a narrative report on our financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the attached unaudited Financial Statements and notes thereto for the three and six months ended April 30, 2020 included under Item 1 – Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report and our Registration Statement on Form 10-12G, which contains audited Financial Statements and notes thereto for the periodyear ended October 31, 2018.2019 contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements of our plans, objectives, expectations, and intentions. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Please also see the cautionary language at the beginning of this Quarterly Report regarding forward-looking statements.

The discussions of our results as presented in this Quarterly Report include use of the non-GAAP term “gross profit. Gross profit is determined by deducting the cost of goods sold from operating revenue. Cost of goods sold includes direct and indirect labor, materials, services, fixed costs, and variable overhead. Gross profit should not be considered an alternative to operating income or net income, which are determined in accordance with GAAP. We believe that gross profit, although a non-GAAP financial measure, is useful and meaningful to investors as a basis for making investment decisions. It provides investors with information that demonstrates our cost structure and provides funds for our total costs and expenses. We use gross profit in measuring the performance of our business. Other companies may calculate gross profit in a different manner.

Potential Impact of COVID-19

In March 2020, the WHO declared the outbreak of COVID-19 as a pandemic based on the rapid increase in global exposure. COVID-19 continues to spread throughout the world, including the United States. Our business operations, which commenced during this pandemic, continue to be operational and, to date, we have not seen any significant direct negative impact of COVID-19 to our newly commenced business. However, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact economic conditions, which could impact the short-term and long-term demand from our customers and, therefore, has the potential to negatively impact our results of operations, cash flows, and financial position in the future. Management is actively monitoring this situation and any impact on our financial condition, liquidity, and results of operations. However, given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic and the global responses to curb its spread, we are not presently able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our future results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity for the remainder of fiscal year 2020 and, possibly, beyond.

 

Corporate History

 

We were incorporated on September 4, 2018 in the State of Delaware. We are focused on growing and incubating innovative and profitable products into mature, dominant brands.

Business Overview

Since inception, the Company has been engaged in limited organizational efforts; however, the Company intends to commence business operations in the near term. Currently, the Company is exploring and evaluating various business opportunities, which may include entering into distribution or other contractual arrangements, or acquiring the assets of an existing company. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, the Company has not entered into any agreements concerning any business activities.

The Company, based on current and proposed business activities, is considered a “blank check” company. The SEC defines a “blank check” company as “any development stage company that is issuing a penny stock, within the meaning of Section 3(a)(51)-1 of the Exchange Act, and that has no specific business plan or purpose, or has indicated that its business plan is to engage in a merger or acquisition with an unidentified company or companies or other entity or person.” Pursuant to Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act, the Company also qualifies as a shell company, because it has no or nominal assets (other than cash) and no or nominal operations. In addition, many states have enacted statutes, rules, and regulations limiting the sale of securities of “blank check” companies in their respective jurisdictions.

11

In addition, the Company is an “emerging growth company” (“EGC”), that is exempt fromA&R Sub-Distribution Agreements set forth certain financial disclosure and governance requirements for up to five years as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), that eases restrictions on the sale of securities, and increases the number of stockholders a company must have before becoming subject to the SEC’s reporting and disclosure rules. We have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(2) of the Jobs Act, that allows us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.minimum purchase obligations.

 

We are currently exploring and evaluating business opportunities, which may include entering into distribution or other contractual arrangements or acquiringbelieve that over the assetscourse of an existing company. Our principal business objective for the next 12twelve months, and beyond such timeour business operations will begenerate the capital needed to achieve long-term growth potential through a combination with aour business or commencement ofobjectives; however, because we recently commenced business operations, rather than immediate, short-term earnings. We anticipate exploring potential business opportunities within the electronic cigarettes and vaporizers and CBD industries as a result of our management’s prior and current business experience within such industries. Management envisions that such business opportunities would result in us commencing business operations without having to otherwise consummate a business combination. We have not entered into any definitive agreements with any party; however, we have engaged in discussions with various parties regarding potential business opportunities.

In the event that management is unable to otherwise commence business operations, and determines that it is necessary to engage in one or more business combinations, we may consider a business that has recently commenced operations, is in need of additional funds for expansion into new products or markets, is seeking to develop a new product or service, or is an established business that maythere can be experiencing financial or operating difficulties and is in need of additional capital. Our management believes that the public company status that results from a combination with us could provide such company greater access to the capital markets, increase its visibility in the investment community, and offer the opportunity to utilize its stock to make acquisitions. However, there is no assurance that our business operations will continue to generate the cash flows required for us to achieve our business objectives. If we will have greater access to capital due to our public company status and, therefore, a business combination with an operating company in need ofrequire additional capital, may expose us to additional risks and challenges. In the alternative, a business combination may involve the acquisition of, or merger with, a company which does not need substantial additional capital, but which desires to establish a public trading market for its shares, while avoiding, among other things, the time delays, significant expense, and loss of voting control that may occur in a public offering. We do not anticipate paying a finder’s fee, either in cash or through the issuance of securities, for the consummation of any business acquisition the Company makes pursuant to its current business plan.

Any target business that is selected may be a financially unstable company or an entity in its early stages of development or growth, including entities without established records of sales or earnings. In that event, we will be subject to numerous risks inherent in the business and operations of financially unstable and early stage or potential emerging growth companies. In addition, we may commence business opportunities or combine with an entity in an industry characterized by a high level of risk, and, although our management will endeavor to evaluate the risks inherent in a particular target business, there can be no assurance that we will properly ascertainbe able to raise any required capital or assess all significant risks.

We intend to search for business opportunities by contacting various sources including, but not limited to, our affiliates, lenders, investment banking firms, private equity funds, financial advisors and similar persons, accounting firms, and attorneys notwithstanding us contacting any business directly. The approximate number of persons or entities that capital will be contacted is unknown and dependent on whether any opportunities are presentedavailable to us at acceptable terms, or at all. We believe that our cash provided by the sources that we contact. However, there is no assurance that weoperations will identify any viable business opportunities.

The risks we may face if we are unable to commence business operations, if such business operations are unsuccessful, if we are unable to acquire or merger with another entity, or if such acquisition or merger is unsuccessful, include, but are not limited to, difficulty in achieving future financing, continuing operations, bankruptcy, litigation, and increasing business operations on a limited or no budget.

We do not currently engage in any business activities that provide cash flow. The costs of investigating and analyzing business combinations and opportunitiesbe sufficient for the next 12 monthstwelve months.

As a result of the commencement of business operations, we have begun hiring employees and beyond such timeintend to hire additional independent contractors and/or employees in the future. We cannot provide any assurance as to the timing of the hiring of any additional independent contractors or employees, the number of independent contractors or employees that we may hire, and whether acceptable independent contractors or employees will be paid with money in our treasury, if any, or with additional amounts, as necessary,available to be loaned to or invested in us by our stockholders, management, or other investors. At this time, we are entirely reliant upon cash contributions made by our officers and directors to pay for any and all expenses.at that time.

Going Concern

 

During the next 12 months we anticipate incurring costs related to the filing of Exchange Act reports (legal, accounting, and auditing fees) in the amount of approximately between $5,000 and $10,000, or more. If we pursue any mergers or acquisitions, we anticipate incurring expenses of approximately between $10,000 and $20,000, or more, to pay for legal fees and audit fees. We believe we will be able to meet the costs of filing Exchange Act reports during the next 12 months through use of funds to be loaned to or invested in us by Mr. Nirajkumar Patel and Mr. Eric Mosser, our officers and directors, or other stockholders. However, there is no guarantee that such additional funds will be made available to us or on terms that are favorable to us. If we enter into a business combination with a target entity, we will attempt to require the target company to pay the acquisition related fees and expenses as a condition precedent to such an agreement.

To date,Historically, we have had no discussions with our officers and directors, Mr. Nirajkumar Patel and Mr. Eric Mosser, or other investors, regarding funding and no funding commitment for future expenses has been obtained. If in the future we need funds to pay expenses, we will consider these and other yet to be identified options for raising funds and/or paying expenses. Obviously, if Mr. Patel, Mr. Mosser, or other investors do not loan to or invest sufficient funds in us, then we will not be able to meet our SEC reporting obligations

We havea negative working capital, a stockholder deficit,no revenues, and have no source of revenues. Thesenegative cash flows from operating activities. In the past, these conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. For the foreseeable future, we will be devoting our efforts to exploringour recently commenced business operations. However, we cannot provide any assurances that management’s plan with respect to our newly commenced business operations will be successful. At the time of filing this Quarterly Report, the previously reported going concern has been alleviated, and evaluating business opportunities, which may include merger or acquisition candidates. Ourmanagement does not have substantial doubt of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability. The unaudited financial statements filed as part of this Quarterly Report do not include any adjustments relating to develop additional sourcesthe recoverability and classification of capital, locaterecorded assets, or the amounts and completeclassification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event that we cannot continue as a merger with another company or otherwise commence business operations, and ultimately, achieve profitable operations.going concern.

 


Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have no known demands or commitments and are not aware of any events or uncertainties as of January 31, 2019April 30, 2020 that will result in or that are reasonably likely to materially increase or decrease our current liquidity.

 

AsAt April 30, 2020, we had working capital of January 31, 2019, the Company had no assets. The Company’s current liabilities as January 31, 2019 totaled $9,750, which consistedapproximately $2.8 million and total cash of accrued expenses.approximately $2.0 million.

 

The Company had noNow that we have commenced business operations, we intend to generally rely on cash flows from operating activities for the three months ended January 31, 2019. The Company has generated no revenues since inception. The Company is dependent upon the receipt of capital investment or other financing to fund its ongoing operations and equity and debt offerings, to execute its business plan. In addition, the Company is dependent upon certain related partiesextent necessary and available, to provide continued fundingsatisfy our liquidity needs. There are a number of factors that could result in the need to raise additional funds, including a decline in revenue or a lack of anticipated sales growth and increased costs. Our efforts are directed toward generating positive cash flow and profitability. If these efforts are not successful, we may need to raise additional capital. Should capital resources. If continued funding and capital resources are unavailablenot be available to us at reasonable terms, other actions may become necessary in addition to cost control measures and continued efforts to increase sales. These actions may include exploring strategic options for the sale of the Company, may not be ablethe creation of joint ventures or strategic alliances under which we will pursue business opportunities, or other alternatives. We believe we have the financial resources to implement its planweather any short-term impacts of operations. The Company can provide no assurance that it can continueCOVID-19; however, we are unable to satisfy its cash requirements for at least the next twelve months.presently estimate any potential future impacts from COVID-19 and an extended impact could have a material and adverse effect on our sales, earnings, and liquidity.

 

Cash Flows:

The increase in cash flow from operations for the first six months of fiscal year 2020 was mainly due to the increase in net income. We anticipate continued improvement in our cash flows provided by operations in future years based on the minimum purchase obligations set forth in the A&R Sub-Distribution Agreements, partially offset by increases in costs as we ramp up our sales and marketing efforts.

Results of Operations

 

The Company has not conducted any active operations since inception, except for its effortsThree months ended April 30, 2020, compared to identify suitable business opportunities.

It is unlikely that the Company will have any revenues unless it is able to identify suitable business opportunities and commence operations, of which there can be no assurance. Management believes that these circumstances may hinder the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s plan of operation for the next twelve months shall be to continue its efforts to locate suitable business opportunities.
