We must purchase new quality control testing equipment for our House Wrap product line, which we estimated will cost approximately $100,000. We have not, as yet, received a quote from the vendor. Once the equipment is built it will have to the period on May 6, 2021, we issuedgo through a one year convertible promissory note in the principle amount of $50,000 with a 8% interest rate. The note is convertible at $.50 per share.certification process.
Short Term: We will continue to fund our operations from sales and the sale of our securities. We continue to pay our creditors when payments are due. We will require more funds to be able to order the material for our INSULTEXInsultex products and to purchase equipment needed for the manufacture of the INSULTEXInsultex product. The Company reached an agreement with the manufacturer of the INSULTEXInsultex material to purchase a machine capable of producing the INSULTEXInsultex material. Also included in the proposed agreement will be the propriety formula that creates INSULTEX.Insultex. The Company took delivery of the equipment in December 2015. The Company will have to have the machine installed and ensure that it can be operated in compliance with all environmental rules and regulations. It is the Company intentions to have the equipment operational but cannot currently provide a time estimate. Among the factors affecting the time estimate are financial resources available to the Company, finding a suitable facility and bringing technical personal from abroad to install the equipment. The Company has currently made deposits of $600,000 on the equipment. The Company has incurred $17,000 of additional expenses related to shipping. The Company willintends produce INSULTEXInsultex under its own brand name. See Note 10 of the Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements.
Long Term: The Company will continue to fund its operations from revenues, borrowings from private parties and the possible sale of our securities. Should we not be able to rely on the private sources for borrowing and /or increased sales, our operations would be severely affected as we would not be able to fund our purchase orders to our suppliers for finished goods and our efforts to produce our own INSULTEXInsultex would be delayed.
Subsequent to the period we received proceeds of $10,200 upon the exercise of 60,000 warrants at $ .17 per share.

Management has developed and implemented a policy and procedures for reviewing, on a quarterly basis, our disclosure controls and procedures. During the three month period ended April 30, 2021,January 31, 2022, our principle executive/financial officer concluded that these controls and procedures were ineffective.ineffective and identified the following specific material weaknesses.
| ● | The Company is not maintaining supporting schedules, or the schedules being maintained are inaccurate to support amounts presented and disclosed in the financial statements. Specific schedules in relation to inventory deposits, inventory reserves, fixed assets, debt balance (and related accrued interest) were not available, or in the case of debt schedules were not accurate and in accordance with the loan documents | |
| ● | The Company’s internal controls policies are ineffective, or not being complied with, to identify errors, in the financial statements. These deficiencies may be considered as “material weaknesses”. | |
| ● | In addition, the Company does not utilize an internal accounting system that captures all Company activity on a timely basis. Certain transactions, such as sales and receivables are maintained in one system and disbursements and accounts payable are maintained manually. On a quarterly basis this information is sent to an external accountant to retroactively enter the information into a general ledger system and then prepare the financial statements. The lack of a single accounting system presents multiple opportunities for errors to occur, and further contributes to a lack of timely internal and external financial reporting. |
This was due to our limited resources, including the absence of an internal financial staff member with accounting and financial expertise and deficiencies in the design or operation of our internal control over financial reporting that adversely affected our disclosure controls.
Management plans to address these matters by among actions, meeting more with its external accountant to ensure that issues such as described above are correct going forward. The Company will also restructure its loan recording system to be able to present a more informative report to its external account. Management will also reevaluate its accounting software and will make a determination as to whether to continue to use it or implement another type of program. Either decision will allow all information to be entered into one system which should alleviate the significant deficiency described above.
However, the material weakness will not be considered remediated until the applicable remedial controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. At this time we do not have the financial resources to employ a financial staffStaff with accounting and financial expertise.
Once we have the necessary financial resources, we plan to hire and designate an individual responsible for identifying reportable developments and to implement procedures designed to remediate the material weakness by focusing additional attention and resources in our internal accounting functions.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the most recent fiscal quarter, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13(a)-15 or 15d-15 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Until the Company has the financial resources to employ a financial staff with accounting and financial expertise, to be able to properly account for internal financial reporting, errors that may have a material effect on the financial statements have the potential to occur.
