PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

Corporate History and Restructuring

We are a holding corporation that owns one hundred percent (100%) of a diagnostic medical device company specializing in discovering, developing and commercializing specialty medical devices. We were organized on December 24, 2013 under the laws of the State of Nevada. \We own one hundred percent (100%) of Region Green Limited, a British Virgin Islands corporation formed on December 12, 2013. Region Green Limited owns one hundred percent (100%) of the stock in Dermal Diagnostic (Holdings) Limited, an England and Wales corporation formed on December 11, 2013. Dermal Diagnostics (Holdings) Limited owns one hundred percent (100%) of the stock in Dermal Diagnostics Limited, an England and Wales corporation formed on January 20, 2009, and one hundred percent (100%) of the stock in Trial Clinic Limited, an England and Wales corporation formed on January 12, 2011.

In December 2013, we restructured the Company and re-domiciled as a domestic corporation in the United States. The corporate re-organization was accomplished to preserve the tax advantages under the England and Wales tax laws for the benefit of the shareholders of both Dermal Diagnostics Limited (“DDL”) and Trial Clinic Limited (“TCL”).

DDL is a diagnostic medical device company headquartered in Loughborough, Leicestershire, England. DDL was founded on January 20, 2009 to engage in the discovery, development and commercialization of diagnostic medical devices.

Our Products

The Company’s initial focus has been on the development of a novel continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) device which consists of a disposable patch containing a sensor, and a non-disposable miniature electronic watch with a re-chargeable power source. CGM through a non-invasive patch can enable early detection of subtle changes in blood glucose levels. In 2015 we named our device ‘sugarBEAT.’ We currently have one (1) CGM watch product. The sugarBEAT device is the packaging for the electronics that control and receive feedback from the “sensor-patch,” which is based on our core platform technology that has both granted and pending patents. Additionally, we have identified the potential for the sugarBEAT device to be useful in mobile phone applications with wireless data transmission from the watch.

The device applies a very small electrical current to the skin, which leads to efficient extraction of glucose from the body into a chamber in the patch. The glucose sensor detects the level of glucose and stores the data on an internal memory platform, as well as displays the glucose reading on an LCD display. An alarm is set-off when the reading is 'out of range'. The technique utilized in this device has been the subject of extensive studies with over twenty (20) clinical reports in the public domain, and is the only non-invasive technique to have been approved by both the FDA and EMEA (European Medicines Evaluation Agency). The effectiveness of the CGM device in blood sugar control facilitates therapeutic adjustments to avoid hypo-glycemic and hyper-glycemic excursions.

Additional applications for the sugarBEAT device may include:

· Mobile Phone Application – with wireless data transmission from watch;

· Development of a Web-server accessed by physicians and diabetic professionals to track the condition remotely thereby reducing healthcare costs and managing the condition more effectively;

· A complete virtual doctor that monitors a person’s vital signs and transmits results via the web; and

· With further investment, other patches can be developed which are able to measure alternative analytes, including lactate, uric acid, lithium and drugs. This would be a step-change in the monitoring of conditions, particularly in the hospital setting. Lactate monitoring is currently used to determine the relative fitness of professional athletes.

Our Business Strategy

We intend to lead in the discovery, development and commercialization of innovative and targeted diagnostic medical devices that improve disease monitoring, management and overall patient care. We have devoted substantially all of our efforts establishing a new business and while operations have commenced we have generated no revenue from our limited operations. We plan to take the following steps to implement our broad business strategy. Our key commercial strategies post-approval will first be implemented in Europe and then in the USA, as follows:

· Develop our own specialty sales and marketing teams to market the sugarBEAT device in the European Union. We intend to develop specialty sales teams and/or enter into licensing agreements with established marketing companies for production and distribution of our product in the European Economic Area. We have a marketing rights agreement for the UK and Republic of Ireland (including the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands) with DB Pharma (Jersey) Ltd. We have also signed an agreement with Dallas Burston Pharma (Jersey) Limited to collaborate on the sale of the device to other European territories.

· Expand the indications for which the sugarBEAT device may be used. We believe that the sugarBEAT device may offer significant benefits other than those found in the non-acute setting for the monitoring of other diseases. This includes monitoring of lactic acid for professional athletes, and the monitoring of drugs. We intend to complete initial proof of concept in laboratory settings followed by a clinical program.

· Expand our product pipeline through our proprietary platform technologies, acquisitions and strategic licensing arrangements. We intend to leverage our proprietary platform technologies to grow our portfolio of product candidates for the diagnosis of diabetes and other diseases. In addition we intend to license our product and acquire products and technologies that are consistent with our research and development and business focus and strategies.

Product Development

Management has extensive experience in regulatory and clinical development of diagnostic medical devices. We intend to take advantage of this experience in the field of diagnostic medical devices in an attempt to increase the probability of product approval. We believe that while the overall regulatory process for diagnostic medical devices for diabetes is currently similar to those governing other diagnostic devices, the development timelines may be significantly shorter. Whereas typical clinical trials involving pharmaceuticals must be monitored over long periods (often years), diagnostic medical devices for diabetes may take significantly less time to evaluate. This shortened clinical development time relative to pharmaceuticals is a function of the speed with which a diabetes diagnostic medical device can be tested and evaluated for its clinical output, in this case the accuracy with which it can trend blood glucose levels, which is in the order of several hours and days to see the end point, as compared to several months and years when drugs undergo clinical studies. In addition, because the results are instantaneous, the clinical trials do not initially require long term follow-up for primary endpoints which otherwise would take significant periods of time to evaluate. Accordingly, we believe our clinical trials may enroll quickly and that the evaluable data will be made available to us quickly. We believe our world experience in the clinical development of diabetes diagnostic medical devices, our familiarity with the regulatory approval process in the United Kingdom and the European Union and shorter development times may allow for our first product to emerge onto the commercial markets by early 2017. As we continue to raise funds for marketing the device in some European Union territories, we will also collaborate with future licensees and marketing partners to achieve our product development and meet our projected milestones.

The table below provides our best estimate of our timeline:

Market Opportunity for the Company’s Products

According to the International Diabetes Federation Atlas (the “IDF”), there are approximately 382 million people in the world who have diabetes as of December 2013. The IDF is predicting that by 2035 this will rise to 592 million people. The number of people with type 2 diabetes is increasing in every country and currently eighty percent (80%) of people with diabetes live in low- and middle-income countries. The greatest number of people with diabetes is between 40 and 59 years of age.

Statistics published by the IDF report that diabetes is a huge and growing problem, and the costs to society are high and escalating. In addition, Europe has the highest prevalence of children with type 1 diabetes.

Type 1 diabetes, once known as juvenile diabetes or insulin-dependent diabetes, is a chronic condition in which the pancreas produces little or no insulin, a hormone needed to allow sugar (glucose) to enter cells to produce energy. The far more common type 2 diabetes occurs when the body becomes resistant to the effects of insulin or doesn't make enough insulin.

Various factors may contribute to type 1 diabetes including genetics and exposure to certain viruses. Although type 1 diabetes typically appears during childhood or adolescence, it also can develop in adults.

Despite active research, type 1 diabetes has no cure, although it can be managed. With proper treatment, people who have type 1 diabetes can expect to live longer, healthier lives than they did in the past. Type 1diabetes includes autoimmune type 1 diabetes (type 1a) which is characterized by having positive autoantibodies, as well as idiopathic type 1 diabetes (type 1b) where autoantibodies are negative and c-peptide is low. Patients with type 1 diabetes (insulin dependent) require long term treatment with exogenous insulin and these patients perform self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) to calculate the appropriate dose of insulin. SMBG is done by using blood samples obtained by finger sticks but frequent SMBG does not detect all the significant deviations in blood glucose, specifically in patients who have rapidly fluctuating glucose levels.

Type 2 diabetes, once known as adult-onset or noninsulin-dependent diabetes, is a chronic condition that affects the way your body metabolizes sugar (glucose), your body's main source of fuel. With type 2 diabetes, your body either resists the effects of insulin, a hormone that regulates the movement of sugar into your cells, or doesn't produce enough insulin to maintain a normal glucose level. Untreated, type 2 diabetes can be life-threatening.

More common in adults, type 2 diabetes increasingly affects children as childhood obesity increases. There's no cure for type 2 diabetes, but it can be managed by eating well, exercising and maintaining a healthy weight. If diet and exercise don't control the blood sugar, diabetes medications or insulin therapy may be required.

Each year, millions of patients undergo diabetes testing in the European Union and in the United States. The main reason for this testing is to detect and evaluate diabetes in patients with symptoms of diabetes. These studies provide clinical benefit in the initial evaluation of patients with suspected but unproven diabetes, and in those patients in whom a diagnosis of diabetes has been established and information on prognosis or risk is required.

We believe that our market opportunity is a direct function of the number of persons tested, diagnosed and treated for either type 1 or type 2 diabetes. The IDF indicates that the total world market opportunity for a continuous glucose monitoring device is in the billions of dollars and is projected to grow annually through the year 2035. We estimate the potential market opportunity five years following the approval of our first product at between $1billion and $7 billion annually.

Market Opportunity

We do not believe it is possible to estimate the number of diabetes patients that undergo finger pricks or other types of invasive glucose monitoring. However, we are unaware of any product currently on the market that may allow for non-invasive continuous glucose monitoring. We believe the sugarBEAT device may be readily adopted by the medical community for continuous assessment of a patient.

We believe our non-invasive sugarBEAT device possesses many significant advantages and may represent an ideal device for the detection of discordances in an individual’s blood sugar levels, and the identification of jeopardized hyper and hypo glycemic excursions. If approved for commercialization, we believe the sugarBEAT device may represent a best in class non-invasive continuous glucose monitoring device to reach those afflicted with diabetes. While we cannot estimate the market share that our sugarBEAT device may capture, we believe that the sugarBEAT device will capture a significant share of the non-invasive continuous glucose monitoring market.

Commercialization Plan

We intend to develop our products through the completion of stage II studies and/or stage III studies, designed to verify the claims that the device may be used as an adjunct to a finger-stick measurement, at which point we will seek to partner with organizations that may facilitate the further development and distribution of our products. We also intend to seek strategic partners early in the research and development cycle for programs that may fall outside of our core competencies.

Competition

We expect to compete with several medical device manufacturing companies including Dexcom, Abbott, Echo and Medtronic. Our competitors may:

· develop and market products that are less expensive or more effective than our future product;

· commercialize competing products before we or our partners can launch any products developed by us;

· operate larger research and development programs or have substantially greater financial resources than we do;

· initiate or withstand substantial price competition more successfully than we can;

· have greater success in recruiting skilled technical and scientific workers from the limited pool of available talent;

· more effectively negotiate third-party licenses and strategic relationships; and

· take advantage of acquisition or other opportunities more readily than we can.

We will compete for market share against large pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, smaller companies that are collaborating with larger pharmaceutical companies, new companies, academic institutions, government agencies and other public and private research organizations. Many of these competitors, either alone or together with their partners, may develop new products that will compete with ours, and these competitors may, and in certain cases do, operate larger research and development programs or have substantially greater financial resources than we do.

We anticipate that we will have competition from specific companies. Although it is difficult to analyze our major competitors since currently there are no non-invasive diagnostic medical devices to continuously monitor blood glucose levels, we anticipate that specific companies may compete with us in the future. Echo Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: ECTE) has developed the Symphony CGM System for use in the hospital critical care environment. This device is for continuous glucose blood level monitoring in a critical care environment in hospitals. This device does require the removal of the top layer of skin. As a result we do not believe this device is a direct competitor of our product and there have been no indications that it will receive product approval in Europe or US in the near term.

* The (Clarke) Error Grid is a method for quantifying the clinical accuracy of the blood glucose reading by taking the patients’ blood glucose reading measured using a standard finger prick test and comparing it with the reading provided by a glucose meter or other device; The closer the reading of the device with the finger-prick blood glucose value, the higher the accuracy of the device. The % accuracy quoted here is the % of the readings in the Clark Error Grid that are in zones A & B (i.e., in the clinically significant zone).

Regulatory Requirements

Our device has been electrically safety tested, and all biocompatibility conformance also demonstrated, against the relevant European Medical Device Directives. Batches of the device and patches were manufactured for human clinical studies that took place between November 2014 and December 2015. Conformance notification was received from the Drug Controller General in India (DCGI) and ethics approval was received in multiple clinical centres in India, for testing the device in both Type I and Type II diabetic patients. Thus far over 100 patient days worth of data has been generated, involving at least 30 patients returning on 3 or 4 visits, each visit study duration lasting between 12 and 14 hours, with more than 1500 matched data points (i.e., >1500 finger prick tests conducted using the HemoCue blood glucose meter, to match >1500 CGM device readings). The results thus far indicate that the CGM accuracy in the Clark error Grid Zones A and B exceeds 90%, and no adverse events or skin irritation was recorded during the study. A CE mark was approved for this clinical device. The device has since been upgraded to include wireless communication and also to reduce the device size and further clinical studies are ongoing to confirm the accuracy and absence of skin irritation after which a further CE submission will be made to include new claims.

Prior to launching commercial sales of our product we must complete key material points:

Completion of the technical dossier, documenting the entire design process including the industrial design, electronic design and software design for the final commercial product, incorporating the final aesthetics and materials for product launch.

Completion of human clinical studies in Type I and Type II diabetic patients against a defined clinical protocol, the outcome of which must support the claims for the device; additional ethics committee approvals and regulatory body approvals will be required if the device is to be tested in clinics other than those where ethics approval has already been obtained, or if clinical studies are planned in other countries, respectively.

CE approval in Europe and subsequent regulatory approvals in other territories with new claims; and

Prepare the patch (the patch is the sensor housing containing the sensor and has skin adhesive to stick the sensor/patch to the skin) and preparation of the device (the watch portion containing the electronics and software) for manufacturing for commercial sales, i.e., in large volumes. The patches (containing the sensors) and the device have been manufactured in small batches sufficient for clinical studies and laboratory testing. The scale up of the processes will be undertaken to mass-produce the sensors and patches and the devices in a scale that allows large volume batches to be produced cost effectively. This is necessary to ensure that the manufacturing costs of our products are minimized in order to effectively meet market demands.

Intellectual Property

Nemaura has retained Serjeants LLP in Leicester, UK as patent counsel with respect to all matters relating to our technologies. The Company believes that clear and extensive patent coverage for its technologies is central to long-term success and will invest accordingly. This applies to both domestic and international patent coverage.

A Patent and Know How License was entered into between The University of Bath (“Bath”) and Nemaura Pharma Limited, a related company (“Pharma”) on June 21, 2012 (the “License Agreement”). Under the terms of the License Agreement, Bath has granted to Pharma an exclusive license throughout the world to conduct research and make, use, sell, import and otherwise deal in products consisting of the self-calibrating iontophoresis-based technology for the transdermal measurement of certain physiological analytes, such as glucose, lactate and urea, in humans as described in patents owned by Bath and know-how provided by Bath. Pharma shall develop and commercialize the licensed products and meet certain manufacturing and commercialization milestones. If Pharma fails to meet the milestones, Bath has the right, but not the obligation, to give written notice to Pharma of the failure and provide Pharma with an additional four months to remedy such failure, and if it’s not remedied within that time, Bath has the right to make the license non-exclusive in respect of those analytes for which the milestones have not been achieved. If Bath fails to give such notice following six (6) months of the end of the cure period it shall be deemed to have waived its right to make the Licence non-exclusive. To date we have met two of the milestones with respect to the successful demonstration of a prototype device and regulatory approval (CE certification) of the first analyte in the field of use that were scheduled for completion on December 31, 2012 and May 31, 2014, respectively. As of the date hereof we have not received any written notice from Bath of the failure to meet the milestones or demand to cure such failure. As consideration for the license, Pharma paid Bath an insignificant upfront fee, and shall make milestone payments and pay a royalty on gross receipts from income on the sales of the products. The agreement shall terminate upon expiration of all the patents, unless earlier terminated by Bath, or by Pharma. The last patent terminates on June 21, 2021. We have the right to terminate this agreement upon three months’ written notice and Bath may terminate immediately upon written notice due to the occurrence of certain events, including, without limitation, our failure to make payments under the agreement, a material breach under the agreement, a petition, notice, resolution or order made in connection with winding up our business or for the appointment of an administrator, and other triggering events.

In connection with the License Agreement, the parties also entered into a consulting agreement on June 21, 2012, whereby Bath will provide Pharma with consultants to provide services to facilitate the technology transfer and the commercial exploitation of the patents, know how or licensed products to measure glucose, lactate and urea in a clinical or home environment. Pharma shall pay Bath a fixed hourly rate for the services provided by the consultant. On July 9, 2014, the license agreement with Bath was assigned by Pharma to Dermal Diagnostics and Dermal Diagnostics assumed all rights and obligations thereunder. At the time of the assignment of the license from Pharma to us, Bath had verbally agreed with us to extend the deadlines for achieving those milestones, but the new dates have not yet been determined and a formal written agreement has not yet been executed. To date the technology underlying the Bath license agreement has not been, as is not required to be, incorporated into the Company’s technology platform, which platform is sufficient for us to commercialize the sugarBEAT device. Future milestone payments and royalties to Bath are payable only if the Company determines to utilize the Bath technology.

On May 8, 2014, NDM Technologies Limited, a related company, assigned the UK patent application 1208950.4 and International (PCT) patent application PCT/GB2013/051322 entitled “Cumulative Measurement of an Analyte” to DDL for a nominal consideration. In addition, on May 8, 2014, Pharma, assigned the family of patents relating to the patents and patent applications entitled “Patches for Reverse Iontophoresis” to DDL for a nominal consideration.

These patent and license assignments cover all of our lead technologies and include additional indications outside of the field of diagnostic medical devices for diabetes. We intend to take the lead in the preservation and/or prosecution of these patents and patent applications going forward as required.

This patent uses the ratio of sodium that is present in the blood at near constant levels against other analytes such as glucose that are present in the blood at fluctuating concentrations, to calibrate the measured glucose levels without needing to take routine finger prick blood glucose measurements. Date first filed: June 22, 2001, Expires June 21, 2021 All patents granted.

* In reverse Iontophoresis two electrodes, small thin metal discs are positioned on the skin with a small gap of a few centimeters between the two electrodes. A small battery like that used in some watches is then attached to the electrodes, and when connected a small charge/current flows just below the skin that is in the region between the electrodes. As a result of this molecules such as glucose that are present just below the skin get pulled out of the skin with the flow of the charge/current to one of the electrodes. A sensor present at that electrode measures the amount of glucose that has been pulled out of the skin with the flow of the charge/current. This is quantified and correlated with the blood glucose using a mathematical formula.

Clinical Trials

Our clinical testing is conducted by contract clinical research organizations in various centres around the world to cover a wide demographic – including the Middle East, Asia, and Europe – and ismanaged by our in-house medical devices director. Trials are currently ongoing at five clinical centres in India, on a mixture of Type I and Type II diabetic patients. The patients are wearing the sugarBEAT device for periods of 12 to 14 hours, and blood finger prick measurements of glucose are being taken up to 25 times per 14 hour period, and correlated with the sugarBEAT device readings.

We have had a pre-submission meeting with the FDA whereby the regulatory approval route has been defined by the FDA as being PMA. We have a further meeting scheduled in late June 2016 to discuss our Clinical Plan with the FDA, which has been submitted to them, to ensure discuss the proposed clinical strategy. This includes device and patch use in both a clinical setting as well as a home setting.

Research and development

We spent approximately $1,028,224 and $824,503 in 2016 and 2015, respectively on research and development. We anticipate that for the year ending March 2017, research and development expenditures will increase to further develop the device for commercial launch in the UK and Europe.

Development and clinical test costs in support of our current product, as well as costs to file patents and revise and update previous filings for our technologies, will continue to be substantial as we assess the next steps to advance the product.

Current Development and Commercial Status

The original version of our CGM device consisted of a device designed for clinical use, which was directly connected to a patch containing a sensor. This device did not have any wireless methods of data transport and all data transport was using a USB cable. The clinical device has been further developed and is available in two variants for all future applications:

1. The first of these variants consists of a patch containing a sensor that is applied to the skin. Glucose is extracted from the skin into the patch and the raw data is wirelessly sent to a reader. This reader may be a discrete hand held device specifically produced for the sugarBEAT or it may be a smart phone or smart watch. The reader processes the raw data using algorithms and presents these as glucose readings.

2. The second variant consists of a watch-like device with a screen, and the device directly connects to the patch containing a sensor (using a wire) and provides direct glucose readings on the screen.

We have undertaken a CE approval, which is the process to achieve a mandatory conformity marking for the sugarBEAT device to allow it to be legally sold in the European Union. It is a manufacturers declaration that the product meets the requirements of the applicable European laws. In 2015 we applied to obtain the CE approval for our clinical CGM sugarBEAT system. The application was successful and the CE certification was approved and granted in February 2016.

Since our first CE mark application for sugarBEAT, we have created a new version of the CGM, variants 1 and 2 described above. The two key differences being firstly the new devices are smaller than the first device produced, and secondly the new devices have wireless communication means in the form of Bluetooth. It is our intent to submit a new CE mark application by November 30, 2016 for both variants of the new device. Although at this time we may not seek to commercially market and sell the initial sugarBeat device, we may continue to use it in clinics, or sell it as an introductory product in the event there are delays in securing CE approval of the variants for the new version of the CGM.

Our Business Strategy

Develop our own specialty sales and marketing teams to market the sugarBEAT device in the European Union. We intend to develop specialty sales teams with our Joint Venture partner for the EU territory, for the distribution of our product in the European Economic Area, excluding the UK, Channel Islands, the Isle of Man and Republic of Ireland. We have a marketing license agreement for the UK, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man and the Republic of Ireland with Dallas Burston Pharma (Jersey) Ltd. This agreement is in addition to the 50/50 joint venture agreement with the same party for product launch in all territories in the EU outside of the UK, Channel Islands, the Isle of Man and the Republic of Ireland.

Develop a Clinical and Commercialization Strategy for Product launch in the USA. In October 2015 we held a pre-submission meeting with the FDA and expect to hold a second meeting by mid to late June 2016 with the objective of ensuring that the FDA concurs with our proposed clinical strategy for a Premarket Approval Application, or PMA, submission. We then intend to conduct studies in the USA and submit our PMA within 18 months of the next FDA pre-submission meeting. In parallel we intend to investigate and develop the optimal product launch and commercialization strategy for the USA.

Expand the indications for which the sugarBEAT device may be used. We believe that the sugarBEAT device may offer other significant benefits other than those found in the non-acute setting for the monitoring of other diseases. This includes monitoring of lactic acid for performance athletics as well as critical care, and the monitoring of drugs for clinical study programs. Initial proof of concept will be completed in laboratory settings followed by a clinical program.

Expand our product pipeline through our proprietary platform technologies, acquisitions and strategic licensing arrangements. We intend to leverage our proprietary platform technologies to grow our portfolio of product candidates for the diagnosis of diabetes and other diseases. In addition we intend to license our product and acquire products and technologies that are consistent with our research and development and business focus and strategies.

Manufacturing

Manufacturers for our sensors are Parlex (a division of Johnson Electrics), Isle of White, UK ; Polarseal Limited, Surrey, England for our patches; and CIL Limited located in Andover, UK manufactures our electronics.

We expect to enter into the following types of agreements during the course of the year ending March 31, 2017:

Manufacturing agreements for the sensor manufacture

Manufacturing agreements for the patch manufacture

Manufacturing agreements for the CGM watch device manufacture

Sales and Marketing

An Exclusive Marketing Rights agreement for the UK, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man and the Republic of Ireland was signed on March 31, 2014 with Dallas Burston Pharma, a Jersey (Channel Island) based company who has pharmaceutical product marketing operations in the UK and has demonstrated a very successful model for the marketing of prescription medical products directly to general practitioners. We received a non-refundable upfront payment of $1.67 million in return for providing the company with the exclusive right to sell the sugarBEAT device in the UK, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man and the Republic of Ireland, both direct to consumer and through prescriptions by general practitioners. Subsequently, on April 4, 2014, a Letter of Intent was entered into outlining the basic terms of the cost at which the patches and watch will be supplied and minimum order quantities in the first two (2) years. The key terms of the Exclusive Marketing Rights Agreement were concluded in a Commercial Agreement signed in August 2015.

In addition, we entered into a joint venture agreement with the UK licensee Dallas Burston Pharma (Jersey) Limited, in November 2015, whereby we will share the costs and net profits of the sales of the sugarBEAT system in all territories in Europe, with the exception of the territories that are the subject of the separate agreement as described above. The full commercial agreement is expected to be signed towards the end of 2016.

Regulatory matters

Government authorities in the United Kingdom and Wales and the European Union as well as other foreign countries extensively regulate, among other things, the research, development, testing, manufacture, labeling, promotion, advertising, distribution, sampling, marketing and import and export of medical devices, including patches and other pharmaceutical products. Our Patches for Reverse Iontophoresis in the United Kingdom and Wales will be subject to strict regulation and require regulatory approval prior to commercial distribution. The process of obtaining governmental approvals and complying with ongoing regulatory requirements requires the expenditure of substantial time and financial resources. In addition, statutes, rules, regulations and policies may change and new legislation or regulations may be issued that could delay such approvals. If we fail to comply with applicable regulatory requirements at any time during the product development process, approval process, or after approval, we may become subject to administrative or judicial sanctions. These sanctions could include the authority’s refusal to approve pending applications, withdrawals of approvals, clinical holds, warning letters, product recalls, product seizures, total or partial suspension of our operations, injunctions, fines, civil penalties or criminal prosecution. Any agency enforcement action could have a material adverse effect on us. At this time we are not seeking FDA approval and we are not seeking to conduct clinical studies or to market the sugarBEAT device in the United States.

The European Commission on Public Health (the “ECPH”) provides the regulation for the development and commercialization of new medical diagnostic devices. Any medical device placed on the European market must comply with the relevant legislation, notably with Directive 93/42/EEC, with the active implantable devices Directive 90/385/EEC or with the in vitro devices Directive 98/79/EC. We must first determine whether the device we intend to manufacture or import falls under any of these directives. All medical devices must fulfil the essential requirements set out in the above mentioned directives. Where available, relevant standards may be used to demonstrate compliance with the essential requirements defined in the devices Directives.

Manufacturers also need to determine the appropriate conformity assessment route. For devices falling under Directive 93/42/EEC, other than custom-made devices and devices intended for clinical investigation, the conformity assessment route depends on the class of the device, to be determined in accordance with certain rules set forth in the directives. Once the applicable class or list has been determined, manufacturers need to follow the appropriate conformity assessment procedure. Subject to the type of the device, this may require manufacturers to have their quality systems and technical documentation reviewed by a Notified Body before they can place their products on the market. A Notified Body is a third party body that can carry out a conformity assessment recognized by the European Union. The Notified Body will need to assure itself that relevant requirements have been met before issuing relevant certification. Manufacturers can then place the CE marking on their products to demonstrate compliance with the requirements.

The CE approval is the process of achieving a mandatory conformity marking for the sugarBEAT device to allow it to be legally sold in the European Union. It is a manufacturers’ declaration that the product meets the requirements of the applicable European laws. The process for the sugarBEAT device CE submission and approval will involve the following:

1. The device is classified depending on certain categories described by the European Directive with Class I products being low risk (e.g band aid plasters), through Class III devices being the highest risk. The classes are Class I, IIa, IIb and III. Risk is based upon the potential harm to the patient should a problem arise with a product or its use. The sugarBEAT device is classed as a IIa device in Europe.

2. A ‘technical file’ containing all of the information required to demonstrate that the product meets the essential requirements of the European directive will be prepared. This includes information relating to performance and safety of the device such as product specifications, labeling, instructions for use, risk analysis and specific test information/clinical evidence relating to the product that support the claims being made for the product.

3. Clinical evidence included in the technical file will demonstrate that the device is safe and meets defined performance requirements. This clinical evidence can be in the form of literature data where substantial published data exists that utilizes the same technique for glucose extraction and measurement (albeit in a different device format), or data from actual clinical studies performed using the sugarBEAT device. The first CE mark submission was based on clinical evidence generated by Nemaura. The next CE mark submission and additional claims will be based on further clinical data from human clinical studies performed using the new versions of the sugarBEAT device. The clinical data will be generated to show that the sugarBEAT device can trend blood glucose levels in a human subject by taking measurements up to 12 times per hour. The clinical trial data must demonstrate the sugarBEAT device blood glucose trend can be used to supplement normal finger prick measurements.

4. The technical file will be assessed by an independent inspector (the Notified Body), regulated by the competent authority, (Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency, MHRA in the United Kingdom). The Notified Body (an organization in the European Union that has been accredited by a member state to determine whether a medical device complies with the European medical device directives), will then notify The European Commission on Public Health (the “ECPH”) of the approval and a certificate will be issued to the company by the notified body and we will then be able to apply the CE mark to the device, and legally offer the product for sale in the European Economic Area (EEA).

5. The review of the technical file typically takes a matter of days although the lead time is currently up to 3 months to receive a review date and up to 9 months to receive approval.

6. Generating the information required to complete the technical file takes the most time and this information is collated throughout the product development cycle. Delays arise where the company has not consulted its Notified Body prior to technical file review and elements may require further detail before the Notified Body can confirm that the device meets the essential requirements. This could delay an approval process by several weeks or in more drastic cases by several months depending on the time taken to provide any additional information requested by the Notified Body. Nemaura has been in regular communication with the Notified Body throughout the development of the sugarBEAT device, and continues to do so for the forthcoming CE submissions.

Other Regulation in the United Kingdom and Wales and the EU

Healthcare Reimbursement

Government and private sector initiatives to limit the growth of healthcare costs, including price regulation, competitive pricing, coverage and payment policies, and managed-care arrangements, are continuing in many countries where we do business, including the United Kingdom and Wales. These changes are causing the marketplace to put increased emphasis on the delivery of more cost-effective medical products. Government programs, private healthcare insurance and managed-care plans have attempted to control costs by limiting the amount of reimbursement they will pay for particular procedures or treatments. This has created an increasing level of price sensitivity among customers for products. Some third-party payers must also approve coverage for new or innovative devices or therapies before they will reimburse healthcare providers who use the medical devices or therapies. Even though a new medical product may have been cleared for commercial distribution, we may find limited demand for the product until reimbursement approval has been obtained from governmental and private third-party payers.

Environmental Regulation

We are also subject to various environmental laws and regulations both within and outside the United Kingdom and Wales. Like many other medical device companies, our operations involve the use of substances, including hazardous wastes, which are regulated under environmental laws, primarily manufacturing and sterilization processes. We do not expect that compliance with environmental protection laws will have a material impact on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flow. These laws and regulations are all subject to change, however, and we cannot predict what impact, if any, such changes might have on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Foreign Regulation

Whether or not we obtain regulatory approval for a product, we must obtain approval from the comparable regulatory authorities of foreign countries before we can commence clinical trials or marketing of the product in those countries. The approval process varies from country to country, and the time may be longer or shorter than that required for EC approval. The requirements governing the conduct of clinical trials, product licensing, pricing and reimbursement also vary greatly from country to country.

In addition, pricing approval is required in most countries where reimbursement is sought. We face the risk that the prices which result from the approval process would be insufficient to generate an acceptable return to us or our collaborators.

ITEM 1A. — RISK FACTORS

If any of the following risks actually occur, they could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline.

Risks Related to Our Product Candidate and Operation

We are largely dependent on the success of our sole product candidate, the sugarBEAT device, and we may not be able to successfully commercialize this potential product.

We have incurred and will continue to incur significant costs relating to the development and marketing of our sole product candidate, the sugarBEAT device. We have not obtained approval to market this potential product in any jurisdiction and we may never be able to obtain approval or, if approvals are obtained, to commercialize this product successfully.

If we fail to successfully commercialize our product(s), we may be unable to generate sufficient revenue to sustain and grow our business, and our business, financial condition and results of operations will be adversely affected.

If we fail to obtain regulatory approval of the sugarBEAT device or any of our other future products, we will be unable to commercialize these potential products.

The development, testing, manufacturing and marketing of our product is subject to extensive regulation by governmental authorities in Great Britain and the European Union. In particular, the process of obtaining CE approval by a Notified Body, a third party that can carry out a conformity assessment recognized by the European Union, is costly and time consuming, and the time required for such approval is uncertain. Our product must undergo rigorous preclinical and clinical testing and an extensive regulatory approval process mandated for the CE. Such regulatory review includes the determination of manufacturing capability and product performance. As of the date of this filing we have not applied for CE approval.

Whilst we have received a CE approval on our current sugarBEAT device, which excludes any wireless communication capabilities, we can give no assurance that our future products will be approved by the European Union or Great Britain or any other governmental body. In addition, there can be no assurance that all necessary approvals will be granted for future products or that CE review or actions will not involve delays caused by requests for additional information or testing that could adversely affect the time to market for and sale of our product. Further failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements can, among other things; result in the suspension of regulatory approval as well as possible civil and criminal sanctions.

Failure to enroll patients in our clinical trials may cause delays in developing the sugarBEAT device or any of our future products.

We may encounter delays in the development and commercialization, or fail to obtain marketing approval, of the sugarBEAT device or any other future products if we are unable to enroll enough patients to complete clinical trials. Our ability to enroll sufficient numbers of patients in our clinical trials depends on many factors, including the severity of illness of the population, the size of the patient population, the nature of the clinical protocol, the proximity of patients to clinical sites, and the eligibility criteria for the trial and competing clinical trials. Delays in planned patient enrollment may result in increased costs and harm our ability to complete our clinical trials and obtain regulatory approval.

Delays in clinical testing could result in increased costs to us and delay our ability to generate revenue.

Significant delays in clinical testing could materially adversely impact our product development costs. We do not know whether planned clinical trials will begin on time, will need to be restructured or will be completed on schedule, if at all. Clinical trials can be delayed for a variety of reasons, including delays in obtaining regulatory approval to commence and continue a study, delays in reaching agreement on acceptable clinical study terms with prospective sites, delays in obtaining institutional review board approval to conduct a study at a prospective site and delays in recruiting patients to participate in a study.

Significant delays in testing or regulatory approvals for any of our current or future products, including the sugarBEAT device, could prevent or cause delays in the commercialization of such product candidates, reduce potential revenues from the sale of such product candidates and cause our costs to increase.

Our clinical trials for any of our current or future products may produce negative or inconclusive results and we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical and/or preclinical testing for these products or cease our trials.

We will only receive regulatory approval to commercialize a product candidate if we can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the applicable regulatory agency that the product is safe and effective. We do not know whether our future clinical trials will demonstrate safety and efficacy sufficiently to result in marketable products. Because our clinical trials for the sugarBEAT device may produce negative or inconclusive results, we may decide, or regulators may require us, to conduct additional clinical and/or preclinical testing for this product or cease our clinical trials. If this occurs, we may not be able to obtain approval for this product or our anticipated time to market for this product may be substantially delayed and we may also experience significant additional development costs. We may also be required to undertake additional clinical testing if we change or expand the indications for our product.

If approved, the commercialization of our product, the sugarBEAT device, may not be profitable due to the need to develop sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, or make arrangements with a third party to perform these functions.

In order for the commercialization of our potential product to be profitable, our product must be cost-effective and economical to manufacture on a commercial scale. Subject to regulatory approval, we expect to incur significant sales, marketing, distribution, and to the extent we do not outsource manufacturing, manufacturing expenses in connection with the commercialization of the sugarBEAT device and our other potential products. We do not currently have a dedicated sales force or manufacturing capability, and we have no experience in the sales, marketing and distribution of medical diagnostic device products. In order to commercialize the sugarBEAT device or any of our other potential products that we may develop, we must develop sales, marketing and distribution capabilities or make arrangements with a third party to perform these functions. Developing a sales force is expensive and time-consuming, and we may not be able to develop this capacity. If we are unable to establish adequate sales, marketing and distribution capabilities, independently or with others, we may not be able to generate significant revenue and may not become profitable. Our future profitability will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to:

· the costs and timing of developing a commercial scale manufacturing facility or the costs of outsourcing the manufacturing of the sugarBEAT device;

· receipt of regulatory approval of the sugarBEAT device;

· the terms of any marketing restrictions or post-marketing commitments imposed as a condition of approval by regulatory authorities;

· the costs of filing, prosecuting, defending and enforcing any patent claims and other intellectual property rights;

· costs of establishing sales, marketing and distribution capabilities;

· the effect of competing technological and market developments; and

· the terms and timing of any collaborative, licensing and other arrangements that we may establish.

Even if we receive regulatory approval for the sugarBEAT device or any other product candidates, we may never receive significant revenues from any of them. To the extent that we are not successful in commercializing our potential products, we will incur significant additional losses if we do not successfully commercialize our products.

Our proprietary rights may not adequately protect our intellectual property and product and if we cannot obtain adequate protection of our intellectual property and product, we may not be able to successfully market our product.

Our commercial success will depend in part on obtaining and maintaining intellectual property protection for our technologies and product. We will only be able to protect our technologies and product from unauthorized use by third parties to the extent that valid and enforceable patents cover them, or that other market exclusionary rights apply. While we have issued enforceable patents covering the sugarBEAT device, the patent positions of companies like ours can be highly uncertain and involve complex legal and factual questions for which important legal principles remain unresolved. No consistent policy regarding the breadth of claims allowed in such companies’ patents has emerged to date in Great Britain and the European Union. The general patent environment outside the United States involves significant uncertainty. Accordingly, we cannot predict the breadth of claims that may be allowed or that the scope of these patent rights would provide a sufficient degree of future protection that would permit us to gain or keep our competitive advantage with respect to this product and technology. Additionally, companies like ours are dependent on creating a pipeline of products. We may not be able to develop additional proprietary technologies or products that produce commercially viable products or that are themselves patentable.

Our issued patents may be subject to challenge and possibly invalidated by third parties. Changes in either the patent laws or in the interpretations of patent laws in Great Britain or the European Union or other countries may diminish the market exclusionary ability of our intellectual property.

In addition, others may independently develop similar or alternative technologies that may be outside the scope of our intellectual property. Should third parties obtain patent rights to similar technology, this may have an adverse effect on our business.

To the extent that consultants or key employees apply technological information independently developed by them or by others to our product, disputes may arise as to the proprietary rights of the information, which may not be resolved in our favor. Consultants and key employees that work with our confidential and proprietary technologies are required to assign all intellectual property rights in their discoveries to us. However, these consultants or key employees may terminate their relationship with us, and we cannot preclude them indefinitely from dealing with our competitors. If our trade secrets become known to competitors with greater experience and financial resources, the competitors may copy or use our trade secrets and other proprietary information in the advancement of their products, methods or technologies. If we were to prosecute a claim that a third party had illegally obtained and was using our trade secrets, it would be expensive and time consuming and the outcome would be unpredictable. In addition, courts in Great Britain and the European Union are sometimes less willing to protect trade secrets than courts in the United States. Moreover, if our competitors independently develop equivalent knowledge, we would lack any contractual claim to this information, and our business could be harmed.

Our ability to commercialize our product will depend on our ability to sell such products without infringing the patent or proprietary rights of third parties. If we are sued for infringing intellectual property rights of third parties, such litigation will be costly and time consuming and an unfavorable outcome would have a significant adverse effect on our business.

Our ability to commercialize our product will depend on our ability to sell such products without infringing the patents or other proprietary rights of third parties. Third-party intellectual property in the field of diagnostic medical devices is complicated, and third-party intellectual property rights in this field are continuously evolving. We have not performed searches for third-party intellectual property rights that may raise freedom-to-operate issues, and we have not obtained legal opinions regarding commercialization of our product other than patent research prior to the filing of our patent applications, and search and examination reports from the respective patent examination offices.

In addition, because patent applications are published months after their filing, and because applications can take several years to issue, there may be currently pending third-party patent applications that are unknown to us, which may later result in issued patents. If a third-party claims that we infringe on its patents or other proprietary rights, we could face a number of issues that could seriously harm our competitive position, including:

· infringement claims that, with or without merit, can be costly and time consuming to litigate, can delay the regulatory approval process and can divert management’s attention from our core business strategy;

· substantial damages for past infringement which we may have to pay if a court determines that our products or technologies infringe upon a competitor’s patent or other proprietary rights;

· if a license is available from a holder, we may have to pay substantial royalties or grant cross licenses to our patents or other proprietary rights; and

· Re-designing our process so that it does not infringe the third-party intellectual property, which may not be possible, or which may require substantial time and expense including delays in bringing our own products to market.

Such actions could harm our competitive position and our ability to generate revenue and could result in increased costs.

Nemaura Medical Inc. is an Emerging Growth Company (EGC) as defined under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups (JOBS) Act.

An “emerging growth company” is an issuer whose initial public offering was or will be completed after Dec. 8, 2011, and had total annual gross revenues of less than $1 billion during its most recently completed fiscal year. An issuer’s EGC status terminates on the earliest of:

· The last day of the first fiscal year of the issuer during which it had total annual gross revenues of $1 billion or more;

· The last day of the fiscal year of the issuer following the fifth anniversary of the date of the issuer’s initial public offering;

· The date on which such issuer has issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period determined on a rolling basis; or

· The date on which the issuer is deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the Exchange Act, which means, among other things, that it has a public float in excess of $700 million.

Pursuant to the JOBS Act of 2012, as an emerging growth company the Company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period for any new or revised accounting standards that may be issued by the PCAOB or the SEC. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the standard for the private company. This may make comparison of the Company's financial statements with any other public company which is not either an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible as possible different or revised standards may be used.

The Company has elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised financial accounting standards available under Section 102(b)(2)(B) of the Act. Among other things, this means that the Company's independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to provide an attestation report on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting so long as it qualifies as an emerging growth company, which may increase the risk that weaknesses or deficiencies in the internal control over financial reporting go undetected. Likewise, so long as it qualifies as an emerging growth company, the Company may elect not to provide certain information, including certain financial information and certain information regarding compensation of executive officers that would otherwise have been required to provide in filings with the SEC, which may make it more difficult for investors and securities analysts to evaluate the Company. As a result, investor confidence in the Company and the market price of its common stock may be adversely affected.

As an Emerging Growth Company our investors could suffer the loss of their investment in the event of a downturn of the economy, the loss of one or more of the Officers or Directors, broad market fluctuations, or revenues and operating results falling below our expectations.

If our product, the sugarBEAT device, does not gain market acceptance among physicians, patients and the medical community, we will be unable to generate significant revenue, if any.

The sugarBEAT device that we developed may not achieve market acceptance among physicians, patients, third-party payers and others in the medical community. If we receive the regulatory approvals necessary for commercialization, the degree of market acceptance will depend upon a number of factors, including:

· limited indications of regulatory approvals;

· the establishment and demonstration in the medical community of the clinical efficacy and safety of our product and its potential advantages over existing diagnostic medical devices;

· the prevalence and severity of any side effects;

· our ability to offer our product at an acceptable price;

· the relative convenience and ease of use of our product;

· the strength of marketing and distribution support; and

· sufficient third-party coverage or reimbursement.

The market may not accept the sugarBEAT device based on any number of the above factors. If the sugarBEAT device is approved, there may be other therapies available which directly compete for the same target market. The market may choose to continue utilizing the existing products for any number of reasons, including familiarity with or pricing of these existing products. The failure of any of our product to gain market acceptance could impair our ability to generate revenue, which could have a material adverse effect on our future business.

We have no commercial manufacturing facility for our sugarBEAT device and no experience in manufacturing products for commercial purposes and the failure to find manufacturing partners or create a manufacturing facility ourselves could have an adverse impact on our ability to grow our business.

We have no commercial manufacturing facility for the sugarBEAT device and no experience in manufacturing commercial quantities of our product. As such, we are dependent on third parties to supply our product according to our specifications, in sufficient quantities, on time, in compliance with appropriate regulatory standards and at competitive prices. We cannot be sure that we will be able to obtain an adequate supply of our product candidates on acceptable terms, or at all.

Manufacturers supplying diagnostic medical devices must comply with regulations which require, among other things, compliance with evolving regulations under Medical Device Directives stipulated under ISO13485. The manufacturing of products at any facility will be subject to strict quality control, testing and record keeping requirements, and continuing obligations regarding the submission of safety reports and other post-market information. Both the sensor and patch manufacturing facilities for the sugarBEAT device are currently ISO13485 certified. We cannot guarantee that the facilities will continue to pass regulatory inspection, or that future changes to ISO13485 standards will not also affect the manufactures of the sensors and patches.

If we fail to attract and retain senior management, consultants, advisors and scientific and technical personnel, our product development and commercialization efforts could be impaired.

Our performance is substantially dependent on the performance of our senior management and key scientific and technical personnel, particularly Dr. Dewan Fazlul Hoque Chowdhury, President, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Although we have entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Chowdhury, there is no assurance that he will remain in our employ for the entire term of such employment agreement. The loss of the services of any member of our senior management or our scientific or technical staff may significantly delay or prevent the development of our product and other business objectives by diverting management’s attention to transition matters and identification of suitable replacements, if any, and could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

We also rely on consultants and advisors to assist us in formulating our research and development strategy. All of our consultants and advisors are either self-employed or employed by other organizations, and they may have conflicts of interest or other commitments, such as consulting or advisory contracts with other organizations, that may affect their ability to contribute to us.

In addition, we believe that we will need to recruit additional executive management and scientific and technical personnel. There is currently intense competition for skilled executives and employees with relevant scientific and technical expertise, and this competition is likely to continue. The inability to attract and retain sufficient scientific, technical and managerial personnel could limit or delay our product development efforts, which would adversely affect the development of our product and commercialization of our potential product and growth of our business.

We expect to expand our research, development, clinical research and marketing capabilities and, as a result, we may encounter difficulties in managing our growth, which could disrupt our operations.

We expect to have significant growth in expenditures, the number of our employees and the scope of our operations, in particular with respect to those potential products that we elect to commercialize independently or together with others. To manage our anticipated future growth, we must continue to implement and improve our managerial, operational and financial systems, expand our facilities and continue to train qualified personnel. Due to our limited resources, we may not be able to effectively manage the expansion of our operations or train additional qualified personnel. The physical expansion of our operations may lead to significant costs and may divert our management and business development resources. Any inability to manage growth could delay the execution of our business plan or disrupt our operations.

We will need to raise additional funds in order to finance the anticipated commercialization of our product by incurring indebtedness, through collaboration and licensing arrangements, or by issuing securities which may cause dilution to existing stockholders, or require us to relinquish rights to our technologies and our product.

Developing our product, conducting clinical trials, establishing manufacturing facilities and developing marketing and distribution capabilities is expensive. We will need to finance future cash needs through additional public or private equity offerings, debt financings or corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements. We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to delay, reduce the scope of, or eliminate one or more of our research or development programs or our commercialization efforts. To the extent that we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our stockholders may experience dilution. To the extent that we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements, it may be necessary to relinquish some rights to our technologies or our product or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us.

We have a limited operating history and you should not rely on our historical financial data as an indicator of our future financial performance.

We have a limited operating history in the medical device industry. You should consider our business and prospects in light of the risks and difficulties we face with our limited operating history and should not rely on our past results as an indication of our future performance. In particular, we may face challenges in planning our growth strategy and forecasting market demand accurately as a result of our limited historical data and limited experience in implementing and evaluating our business strategies. If we are unable to successfully address these risks, difficulties and challenges as a result of our limited operating history, our ability to implement our strategic initiatives could be adversely affected, which may in turn have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

We have a history of losses and may not achieve or maintain profitability.

We have incurred net losses every year since our inception in 2009 and have not generated revenue from the period of our inception our inception from product sales or licenses to date. As of March 31, 2016, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $5.6 million. . We may expect to incur losses for the next several years and cannot be certain that we will ever achieve profitability. As a result, our business is subject to all of the risks inherent in the development of a new business enterprise, such as the risk that we may not obtain substantial additional capital needed to support the expenses of developing our technology and commercializing our potential products; develop a market for our potential products; successfully transition from a company with a research focus to a company capable of either manufacturing and selling potential products or profitably licensing our potential products to others; and/or attract and retain qualified management, technical and scientific staff.

We currently have not generated any revenue from product sales and may never become profitable.

To date, we have generated no revenue for product sales and we do not know when or if our product will generate revenue. Our ability to generate revenue depends on a number of factors, including our ability to successfully complete clinical trials for the sugarBEAT device and obtain regulatory approval to commercialize these potential products. Even then, we will need to establish and maintain sales, marketing, distribution and to the extent we do not outsource manufacturing, manufacturing capabilities. We plan to rely on one or more strategic collaborators to help generate revenues in markets outside of Great Britain however, we cannot be sure that our collaborators, if any, will be successful. Our ability to generate revenue will also be impacted by certain challenges, risks and uncertainties frequently encountered in the establishment of new technologies and products in emerging markets and evolving industries. These challenges include our ability to:

· execute our business model;

· create brand recognition;

· manage growth in our operations;

· create a customer base cost-effectively;

· retain customers;

· access additional capital when required; and

· attract and retain key personnel.

We cannot be certain that our business model will be successful or that it will successfully address these and other challenges, risks and uncertainties. If we are unable to generate significant revenue, we may not become profitable, and we may be unable to continue our operations. Even if we are able to commercialize the sugarBEAT device, we may not achieve profitability for at least several years, if at all, after generating material revenue.

Fluctuations in foreign exchange rates may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Our functional currency is the Great Britain Pound Sterling (“GBP”). The reporting currency is the United States dollar (US$). Income and expenditures are translated at the average exchange rates prevailing during the reporting period. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates as of balance sheet date. Stockholder’s equity is translated into United States dollars from GBP at historical exchange rates. Currency fluctuations and restrictions on currency exchange may adversely affect our business, including limiting our ability to convert GBP into foreign currencies and, if the GBP were to decline in value, reducing our revenue in U.S. dollar terms. To the extent the U.S. dollar strengthens against foreign currencies, the translation of these foreign currencies denominated transactions results in reduced revenue, operating expenses and net income for our international operations. Similarly, to the extent the U.S. dollar weakens against foreign currencies, the translation of these foreign currency denominated transactions results in increased revenue, operating expenses and net income for our international operations. We are also exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations as we convert the financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars in consolidation. If there is a change in foreign currency exchange rates, the conversion of the foreign subsidiaries’ financial statements into U.S. dollars will lead to a translation gain or loss which is recorded as a component of other comprehensive income. We have not entered into agreements or purchased instruments to hedge our exchange rate risks. The availability and effectiveness of any hedging transaction may be limited and we may not be able to successfully hedge our exchange rate risks.

Risks Related to Our Industry

Our competitors may develop products that are less expensive, safer or more effective, which may diminish or eliminate the commercial success of any potential products that we may commercialize.

If our competitor’s market products that are less expensive, safer or more effective than our future products developed from our product candidates, or that reach the market before our products, we may not achieve commercial success. For example, if approved, the sugarBEAT device’s primary competition in the glucose monitoring device setting will be companies such as Abbott, Dexcom, Echo and Medtronic who produce glucose monitoring devices. The market may choose to continue utilizing the existing products for any number of reasons, including familiarity with or pricing of these existing products. The failure of our product to compete with products marketed by our competitors would impair our ability to generate revenue, which would have a material adverse effect on our future business, financial condition and results of operations.

We expect to compete with several companies including Abbott, Dexcom, Echo and Medtronic, and our competitors may:

· develop and market products that are less expensive or more effective than our future product;

· commercialize competing products before we can launch any products developed from our product candidate;

· operate larger research and development programs or have substantially greater financial resources than we do;

· initiate or withstand substantial price competition more successfully than we can;

· have greater success in recruiting skilled technical and scientific workers from the limited pool of available talent;

· more effectively negotiate third-party licenses and strategic relationships; and

· take advantage of acquisition or other opportunities more readily than we can.

We expect to compete for market share against large medical diagnostic device manufacturing companies, smaller companies that are collaborating with larger companies, new companies, and other public and private research organizations.

In addition, our industry is characterized by rapid technological change. Because our research approach integrates many technologies, it may be difficult for us to stay abreast of the rapid changes in each technology. If we fail to stay at the forefront of technological change, we may be unable to compete effectively. Our competitors may render our technologies obsolete by advances in existing technological approaches or the development of new or different approaches, potentially eliminating the advantages in our product discovery process that we believe we derive from our research approach and proprietary technologies.

The use of hazardous materials in our operations may subject us to environmental claims or liabilities.

Our research and development activities involve the use of hazardous chemical materials. Injury or contamination from these materials may occur and we could be held liable for any damages, which could exceed our available financial resources. This liability could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are subject to laws and regulations governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of hazardous materials and waste products. We may be required to incur significant costs to comply with environmental laws and regulations in the future that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If we fail to comply with extensive regulations enforced by regulatory agencies with respect to diagnostic medical device products, the commercialization of our product could be prevented, delayed or halted.

Research, preclinical development, clinical trials, manufacturing and marketing of our product is subject to extensive regulation by various government authorities. We have not received marketing approval for the sugarBEAT device. The process of obtaining the required regulatory approvals is lengthy and expensive, and the time required for such approvals is uncertain. The approval process is affected by such factors as:

· the indication and claims of the diagnostic device;

· the quality of submission relating to the product;

· the product’s clinical efficacy and safety;

· the manufacturing facility compliance;

· the availability of alternative devices;

· the risks and benefits demonstrated in clinical trials; and

· the patent status and marketing exclusivity rights of certain innovative products.

Any regulatory approvals that we or our partners receive for our product may also be subject to limitations on the indicated uses for which the product may be marketed or contain requirements for potentially costly post-marketing follow-up studies. The subsequent discovery of previously unknown problems with the product, including adverse events of unanticipated severity or frequency, may result in restrictions on the marketing of the product and withdrawal of the product from the market.

Manufacturing, labeling, storage and distribution activities also are subject to strict regulation and licensing by government authorities. The manufacturing facilities for our product will be subject to periodic inspection by the regulatory authorities and from time to time, these agencies may send notice of deficiencies as a result of such inspections. Our failure or the failure of our manufacturing facilities, to continue to meet regulatory standards or to remedy any deficiencies could result in corrective action by the authorities, including the interruption or prevention of marketing, closure of our manufacturing facilities, and fines or penalties.

Regulatory authorities also will require post-marketing surveillance to monitor and report potential adverse effects of our product. If approved, any of our products’ subsequent failure to comply with applicable regulatory requirements could, among other things, result in warning letters, fines, suspension or revocation of regulatory approvals, product recalls or seizures, operating restrictions, injunctions and criminal prosecutions.

Government policies may change and additional government regulations may be enacted that could prevent or delay regulatory approval of our product. We cannot predict the likelihood, nature or extent of adverse government regulation that may arise from future legislation or administrative action. If we are not able to maintain regulatory compliance, we might not be permitted to market our product and our business could suffer.

In the future, we hope to distribute and sell our product outside of the United Kingdom and the European Union, which will subject us to further regulatory risk.

In addition to seeking approval from the United Kingdom and the European Union for the sugarBEAT device, we may seek regulatory approval from Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, to market the sugarBEAT device however there is no guarantee we will do so. We may in the future also seek approvals for additional countries. The regulatory review process varies from country to country, and approval by foreign government authorities is unpredictable, uncertain and generally expensive. The ability to market our product could be substantially limited due to delays in receipt of, or failure to receive, the necessary approvals or clearances. Marketing of our product in these countries, and in most other countries, is not permitted until we have obtained required approvals or exemptions in each individual country. Failure to obtain necessary regulatory approvals could impair our ability to generate revenue from international sources.

Market acceptance of our product will be limited if users are unable to obtain adequate reimbursement from third-party payers.

Government health administration authorities, private health insurers and other organizations generally provide reimbursement for products like our product and our commercial success will depend in part on these third-party payers agreeing to reimburse patients for the costs of our product. Even if we succeed in bringing our product to market, we cannot assure you that third-party payers will consider our product cost effective or provide reimbursement in whole or in part for its use.

Significant uncertainty exists as to the reimbursement status of newly approved health care products. Our product is intended to replace or alter existing therapies or procedures. These third-party payers may conclude that our product is less safe, effective or cost-effective than existing therapies or procedures. Therefore, third-party payers may not approve our product for reimbursement.

If third-party payers do not approve our product for reimbursement or fail to reimburse for them adequately, sales will suffer as some physicians or their patients will opt for a competing product that is approved for reimbursement or is adequately reimbursed. Even if third-party payers make reimbursement available, these payers’ reimbursement policies may adversely affect our ability and the ability of our potential collaborators to sell our product on a profitable basis.

The trend toward managed healthcare, the growth of organizations such as health maintenance organizations and legislative proposals to reform healthcare and government insurance programs could significantly influence the purchase of healthcare services and products, resulting in lower prices and reduced demand for our product which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, legislation and regulations affecting the pricing of our product may change in ways adverse to us before or after the regulatory agencies approve our product for marketing. While we cannot predict the likelihood of any of these legislative or regulatory proposals, if any government or regulatory agencies adopt these proposals, they could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Product liability claims may damage our reputation and, if insurance proves inadequate, the product liability claims may harm our business.

We may be exposed to the risk of product liability claims that is inherent in the diagnostic medical device. A product liability claim may damage our reputation by raising questions about our product’s safety and efficacy and could limit our ability to sell our product by preventing or interfering with commercialization of our product.

In addition, product liability insurance for our industry is generally expensive to the extent it is available at all. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain and maintain such insurance on acceptable terms or that we will be able to secure increased coverage if the commercialization of our product progresses, or that future claims against us will be covered by our product liability insurance. Moreover, there can be no assurance that any product liability coverage from any insurance policy and/or any rights of indemnification and contribution that we may have will offset any future claims. We currently do not maintain product liability insurance. A successful claim against us with respect to uninsured liabilities and not subject to any indemnification or contribution could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We could be negatively impacted by the application or enforcement of fraud and abuse laws, including anti-kickback laws and other anti-referral laws.

We are not aware of any current business practice which is in violation of any fraud and abuse law. However, continued vigilance to assure compliance with all potentially applicable laws will be a necessary expense associated with product development. For example, all product marketing efforts must be strictly scrutinized to assure that they are not associated with improper remunerations to referral sources in violation of any anti-kickback statutes. Remunerations may include potential future activities for our product, including discounts, rebates and bundled sales, which must be appropriately structured to take advantage of statutory and regulatory “safe harbors.” From time to time we may engage physicians in consulting activities. In addition, we may decide to sponsor continuing medical education activities for physicians or other medical personnel. We also may award or sponsor study grants to physicians from time to time. All relationships with physicians, including consulting arrangements, continuing medical education and study grants, must be similarly reviewed for compliance with any anti-kickback statute to assure that remuneration is not provided in return for referrals. Patient inducements may also be unlawful. Inaccurate reports of product pricing, or a failure to provide a product at an appropriate price to various governmental entities, could also serve as a basis for an enforcement action under various theories.

Claims which are “tainted” by virtue of kickbacks or a violation of self-referral rules may be alleged as false claims if other elements of a violation are established. Because our potential customers may seek payments from healthcare programs for our product, even during the clinical trial stages, we must assure that we take no actions which could result in the submission of false claims. For example, free product samples which are knowingly or with reckless disregard billed to healthcare programs could constitute false claims. If the practice was facilitated or fostered by us, we could be liable. Moreover, inadequate accounting for or a misuse of grant funds used for product research and development could be alleged as a violation of relevant statutes.

The risk of our being found in violation of these laws is increased by the fact that many of them have not been fully interpreted by the regulatory authorities or the courts, and their provisions are open to a variety of interpretations, and additional legal or regulatory change.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

Our stock price may be volatile.

The stock market, particularly in recent years, has experienced significant volatility particularly with respect to pharmaceutical, biotechnology and other diagnostic medical device company stocks. The volatility of pharmaceutical, biotechnology and other diagnostic medical device company stocks often does not relate to the operating performance of the companies represented by the stock. Factors that could cause this volatility in the market price of our Common Stock include:

· results from and any delays in our clinical trials;

· failure or delays in entering our product into clinical trials;

· failure or discontinuation of any of our research programs;

· delays in establishing new strategic relationships;

· delays in the development or commercialization of our product;

· market conditions in the diagnostic medical device sectors and issuance of new or changed securities analysts’ reports or recommendations;

· actual and anticipated fluctuations in our financial and operating results;

· developments or disputes concerning our intellectual property or other proprietary rights;

· introduction of technological innovations or new commercial products by us or our competitors;

· issues in manufacturing our product;

· market acceptance of our product;

· third-party healthcare reimbursement policies;

· regulatory actions affecting us or our industry;

· litigation or public concern about the safety of our product; and

· additions or departures of key personnel.

These and other external factors may cause the market price and demand for our Common Stock to fluctuate substantially, which may limit or prevent investors from readily selling their shares of Common Stock and may otherwise negatively affect the liquidity of our Common Stock. In the past, when the market price of a stock has been volatile, holders of that stock have instituted securities class action litigation against the company that issued the stock. If any of our stockholders brought a lawsuit against us, we could incur substantial costs defending the lawsuit. Such a lawsuit could also divert the time and attention of our management.

We have not paid and may not pay any dividends on our Common Stock.

We have paid no dividends on our Common Stock to date and may not pay dividends to holders of our Common Stock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, it is currently anticipated that any earnings will be retained to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. As an investor, you should take note of the fact that a lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our stock, and could significantly affect the value of any investment in our Company.

We are subject to the reporting requirements of federal securities laws. This can be expensive and may divert resources from other projects, and thus impairing our ability to grow.

We are subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and other federal securities laws, including compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”). The costs of preparing and filing annual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC (including reporting of any Merger that may occur in the future) and furnishing audited reports to stockholders will cause our expenses to be higher than they would have been if we had remained privately held.

If we fail to establish and maintain an effective system of internal control, we may not be able to report our financial results accurately or to prevent fraud. Any inability to report and file our financial results accurately and timely could harm our reputation and adversely impact the trading price of our Common Stock.

We are subject to reporting obligations under the U.S. securities laws. The Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes- Oxley Act of 2002, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, adopted rules requiring every public company to include a management report on such company’s internal control over financial reporting in its annual report, which contains management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our management has concluded that our internal control over our financial reporting is not effective. Our reporting obligations as a public company will place a significant strain on our management, operational and financial resources and systems for the foreseeable future.

Prior to 2014, we were a private company with a short operating history and limited accounting personnel and other resources with which to address our internal control and procedures over financial reporting. We have identified material weaknesses, which include (i) the limited segregation of duties and level of supervision and a lack of sufficient personnel with an appropriate level of accounting knowledge, experience and training in the application of US GAAP commensurate with our financial reporting requirements; (ii) limited reconciliations and board approval of related party transactions. We will continue to implement measures to remedy these material weaknesses as well as other deficiencies. If we fail to timely achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, we may not be able to conclude that we have effective internal control over financial reporting. Moreover, effective internal control over financial reporting is necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and is important to help prevent fraud. As a result, our failure to achieve and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting could result in the loss of investor confidence in the reliability of our financial statements, which in turn could harm our business and negatively impact the market price of our commons stock.

Effective internal control is necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, we may not be able to manage our business as effectively as we would if an effective control environment existed, and our business and reputation with investors may be harmed. As a result, our small size and any current internal control deficiencies may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operation and access to capital. We have not performed an in-depth analysis to determine if historical un-discovered failures of internal controls exist, and may in the future discover areas of our internal control that need improvement.

Public company compliance may make it more difficult to attract and retain officers and directors.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act and rules subsequently implemented by the SEC have required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. As a public company, we expect these rules and regulations to increase our compliance costs in 2016 and beyond and to make certain activities more time consuming and costly. As a public company, we also expect that these rules and regulations may make it more difficult and expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance in the future and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers.

A limited trading market for our Common Stock may result in limited liquidity for shares of our Common Stock and significant volatility in our stock price.

Our Stock is quoted on the OTCBB. The OTCBB is generally regarded as a less efficient and less prestigious trading market than other national markets. There is no assurance if or when our Common Stock will be quoted on another more prestigious exchange or market. Active trading markets generally result in lower price volatility and more efficient execution of buy and sell orders. The absence of an active trading market reduces the liquidity of our Common Stock.

The market price of our stock is likely to be highly volatile because for some time there will likely be a thin trading market for the stock, which causes trades of small blocks of stock to have a significant impact on our stock price. As a result of the lack of trading activity, the quoted price for our Common Stock on the OTCBB is not necessarily a reliable indicator of its fair market value. Further, if we cease to be quoted, holders of our Common Stock would find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of, our Common Stock, and the market value of our Common Stock would likely decline.

Our Common Stock will be deemed a “penny stock,” which makes it more difficult for our investors to sell their shares.

Our Common Stock will be subject to the “penny stock” rules adopted under Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act. The penny stock rules generally apply to companies whose common stock is not listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market or other national securities exchange and trades at less than $5.00 per share, other than companies that have had average revenue of at least $6,000,000 for the last three years or that have tangible net worth of at least $5,000,000 ($2,000,000 if the company has been operating for three or more years). These rules require, among other things, that brokers who trade penny stock to persons other than “established customers” complete certain documentation, make suitability inquiries of investors and provide investors with certain information concerning trading in the security, including a risk disclosure document and quote information under certain circumstances. Many brokers have decided not to trade penny stocks because of the requirements of the penny stock rules and, as a result, the number of broker-dealers willing to act as market makers in such securities is limited. If we remain subject to the penny stock rules for any significant period, it could have an adverse effect on the market, if any, for our securities. If our securities are subject to the penny stock rules, investors will find it more difficult to dispose of our securities.

Offers or availability for sale of a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock may cause the price of our Common Stock to decline.

If our stockholders sell substantial amounts of our Common Stock in the public market upon the expiration of any statutory holding period, under Rule 144, or issued upon the exercise of outstanding options or warrants, it could create a circumstance commonly referred to as an “overhang” and in anticipation of which the market price of our Common Stock could fall. The existence of an overhang, whether or not sales have occurred or are occurring, also could make more difficult our ability to raise additional financing through the sale of equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate.

The interests of Mr. Chowdhury, or the controlling shareholders, may not always coincide with the interests of us and our other shareholders, and the controlling shareholders may exert significant control or substantial influence over us and may take actions that are not in, or may conflict with, public shareholders’ best interests.

The controlling shareholders will control the exercise of voting rights of over 50 % of the shares eligible to vote in any of our annual or special meeting. Therefore, these controlling shareholders will be able to exercise significant influence over all matters that require us to obtain shareholder approval, including the election of directors to our board and approval of significant corporate transactions that we may consider, such as a merger or other sale of our company or its assets. The controlling shareholders may cause us to take actions that are not in, or may conflict with, the interests of us or the public shareholders. In the case where the interests of the controlling shareholders conflict with those of our other shareholders, or if the controlling shareholders choose to cause us to pursue objectives that would conflict with the interests of our other shareholders, such other shareholders could be left in a disadvantageous position by such actions caused by the controlling shareholders and the price of our common stock could be adversely affected.

We are subject to the anti-takeover provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes governing business combinations and control share acquisition.

Applicability of the Nevada business combination statute would discourage parties interested in taking control of our company if they cannot obtain the approval of our board of directors. These provisions could prohibit or delay a merger or other takeover or change in control attempt and, accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire our company even though such a transaction may offer our stockholders the opportunity to sell their stock at a price above the prevailing market price.

The effect of the Nevada control share statute is that the acquiring person, and those acting in association with the acquiring person, will obtain only such voting rights in the control shares as are conferred by a resolution of the stockholders at an annual or special meeting of the stockholders. The Nevada control share law, if applicable, could have the effect of discouraging takeovers of our company based on our organizational structure.

We are subject to compliance with multiple tax jurisdictions.

As we transact out of both the UK and United states we must comply with tax filing requirements in both jurisdictions.

We may not manage implement changes to our control environment within the timeframes required.

We have identified changes that we need to make to our control environment in under to be in compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley. Although we have an action plan in place, it may not be possible for us to implement all of the changes required in a timely manner.

Dividends

Since incorporation, we have not paid any dividend on any class of equity securities. We anticipate that for the foreseeable future all earnings will be retained for use in our business and no cash dividends will be paid to stockholders. Any payment of cash dividends in the future on the Company’s common stock will be dependent upon our financial condition, results of operations, current and anticipated cash requirements, plans for expansion, as well as other factors that the Board of Directors deems relevant.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The discussion and analysis below includes certain forward-looking statements that are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, as described in “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, that could cause our actual growth, results of operations, performance, financial position and business prospects and opportunities for this fiscal year and the periods that follow to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, those forward-looking statements.

Corporate Overview

Since inception we have devoted substantially all of our efforts establishing a new business and while operations have commenced we have generated no revenue from our limited operations. We are a holding company for a diagnostic medical device company and a clinical trial company specializing in discovering, developing and commercializing diagnostic medical devices with initial applications in the area of diabetes.

The Company was organized on December 24, 2013 under the laws of the State of Nevada. Due to the corporate tax laws of the United Kingdom we have re-organized our corporate structure to provide the continuity of ownership of the common stock for our original incorporator and subsequent investors and protect their tax incentives for long term capital gain.

The additional companies which were incorporated were the following:

Dermal Diagnostics Limited, incorporated on January 20, 2009 was registered to hold the technology relating to the continuous glucose monitoring device and to raise funds for its development.

NDM Technologies Limited (“NDM”), incorporated February 19, 2010 was created to hold any new intellectual property developed by Pharma. All intellectual property that was registered to NDM was assigned to DDL.

Trial Clinic Limited, incorporated January 12, 2011 was created to manage clinical trials. TCL is 100% owned by DDHL however, TCL does not have a common shareholder base with Nemaura Pharma Limited. Dr. D. F. Chowdhury was not a shareholder of Trial Clinic Limited, prior to the acquisition of TCL by DDHL, but is a member of the board of directors of Trial Clinic Limited.

Affiliated Company Relationships

Nemaura Pharma Ltd. (“Pharma”) was incorporated in November 2005. Through October 2013, all technology development and related transactions were incurred by Pharma. As new technology platforms were invented and developed, additional companies were set up to contain these new technology platforms to aid in the process of raising further investments to progress the development of these subsequent technologies. However, due to the small size of the operations, low number of employees and laboratory and office space required, only one payroll was maintained initially. Invoices were posted in Pharma and recharges were made as required. Recharges have included a proportion of the overhead allocated based on management’s assessment. Management believes that the allocation methodologies are reasonable and that the costs allocated are not materially different from what they would have been had Pharma not been an affiliated entity.

Dr. D. F Chowdhury and Mr. Bashir Timol are officers of Pharma. However, Pharma plans a management restructuring and a new management team is planned to be recruited in due course, aligned with Pharma's commercial launch plans.. The current management at DDL, including Dr. D. F. Chowdhury will allocate 15% of their time to oversee the current operations at Pharma and the implementation of the new management team and to provide ongoing support in an advisory role. Pharma is a drug delivery company, which means that its activities are entirely related to the delivery of drugs to the body of a human or animal subject. DDL is a diagnostic company, which means it is entirely focused on extracting molecules from the human or animal subject and analyzing it to make a diagnosis or to monitor the level of a particular molecule such as glucose. These are two independent businesses engaged in different activities, therefore there is no conflict of interest between the two and management does not see any conflicts arising from the allocations of some of DDL management time to overseeing the operations of Pharma.

For the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, Nemaura Pharma paid Dr. Chowdhury $ 90,370 and $ 98,320 respectively. These payments were solely for work that Dr. Chowdhury performed for Nemaura Pharma in his capacity as Manager. These amounts have not been recharged to Nemaura Medical Inc. and are not included in our financial statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Management’s plans and basis of presentation

The Company has experienced recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations. At March 31, 2016, the Company had approximate cash balances of $9,404,000, working capital of $8,894,000, total stockholders’ equity of $7,679,000 and an accumulated deficit of $5,601,000. To date, the Company has in large part relied on equity financing to fund its operations. Additional funding has come from grants and related party contributions. The Company expects to continue to incur losses from operations for the near-term and these losses could be significant as product development, regulatory activities, clinical trials and other commercial and product development related expenses are incurred.

Management’s strategic assessment includes the following potential options:

●	obtaining regulatory approval for the sugarBEAT device
●	pursuing additional capital raising opportunities;
●	exploring licensing opportunities; and
●	developing the sugarBEAT device for commercialization.

Results of Operations

Year Ended March 31, 2016 Compared To The Year Ended March 31, 2015

Revenue

There was no revenue recognized in the years ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015. In 2014, we received an upfront non-refundable cash payment of approximately $1.67 million in connection with an Exclusive Marketing Rights Agreement with an unrelated third party that provides the third party the exclusive right to market and promote the sugarBEAT device and related patch under its own brand in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland. We have deferred this licensing revenue until we complete our continuing performance obligations, which include securing successful CE marking of the sugarBEAT patch, and we expect to record the revenue in income over an approximately 10 year term from the date CE marking approval is obtained. Although the revenue is deferred at March 31, 2016 and 2015, the cash payment became immediately available and was being used to fund our operations, including research and development costs associated with obtaining the CE marking approval.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses were $1,028,224 and $824,503 for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The increase was due to increased sub contractor activities for improvements made to the sugarBEAT device. We expect research and development expenses to continue to be a significant cost in future periods as we continue our clinical studies of our sugarBEAT device and pursue strategic opportunities.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses were $511,413 and $495,337 for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. We expect general and administrative expenses to remain at similar levels going forward in the long term, as there will continue to be professional, consultancy and legal fees associated with planned fundraising.

Other Comprehensive Income

For the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 other comprehensive income was $135,813 and $28,529 respectively, arising from foreign currency translation adjustments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception. We have sustained cumulative losses of $5,601,367 through March 31, 2016. We have historically financed our operations through the issuances of equity, UK government grants and contributions of services from related entities.

At March 31, 2016, the Company had net working capital of $8,894,226 which included cash of $9,403,965. The Company reported a net loss of $1,539,637 for the year ended March 31, 2016.

While our current cash level is sufficient for the completion of the clinical studies and the initial scale up of our manufacturing, our long term business plan is contingent upon our ability to raise additional funds. This may include a combination of debt, equity and licensing fees. If we are not successful in raising the funds needed in the specified timelines, the target dates for the achievement of the milestones will be extended.

We believe the cash position as of March 31, 2016 is adequate for our current level of operations through fiscal year 2017, and for the achievement of certain of our product development milestones. Our plan is to utilize the cash on hand to complete the following:

- Establish commercial manufacturing operations for commercial supply of the sugarBEAT device and patches.

In March 2014 we received proceeds of approximately $400,000 in connection with the private placement of 20 million shares of our common stock. In November 2015 we received proceeds of $10,000,000 in connection with the private placement of 5 million shares and warrants for up to 10 million shares of our common stock.

Operating activities

Net cash consumed by our operating activities for the year ended March 31, 2016 was $1,209,365 which reflected our net loss of $1,539,637, a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $160,983, and offset by an a decrease in prepayments and other receivables of $224,392.

Net cash consumed by our operating activities for the year ended March 31, 2015 was $1,432,863 which reflected our net loss of $1,319,840 and an increase in prepayments and other receivables of $407,805 and offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $117,226 and $170,000 respectively.

Net cash used in investing activities was $87,564 for the year ended March 31, 2016, which reflected the purchase of intellectual property of $78,197 and property and equipment of $9,367.

Net cash used in investing activities was $6,740 for the year ended March 31, 2015, which reflected the decrease in restricted cash of $85,462 and the purchase of intellectual property of $76,745 and property and equipment of $15,457.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $10,299,434 for the year ended March 31, 2016. Net cash provided by financing activities represents proceeds from the issuance of common stock for cash of $10,000,000 and costs paid for and net advances from a related party of $299,434. For the year to March 31, 2015, there were no financing activities.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements, including unrecorded derivative instruments that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results inevitably will differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of our financial statements include estimates associated with research and development, income taxes and intangible assets.

The Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows are impacted by the accounting policies the Company has adopted. In order to get a full understanding of the Company’s financial statements, one must have a clear understanding of the accounting policies employed. A summary of the Company’s critical accounting policies follows:

Research and Development Expenses: The Company charges research development expenses to operations as incurred. Research and Development expenses primarily consist of salaries and related expenses for personnel and outside contractor and consulting services. Other research and development expenses include the costs of materials and supplies used in research and development, prototype manufacturing, clinical studies, related information technology and an allocation of facilities costs.

Income taxes: Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and operating loss carry forwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the carrying amount of deferred income tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized.

The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company has elected to classify interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as part of income tax expense in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

Intangible Assets: Intangible assets primarily represent legal costs and filings associated with obtaining patents on the Company’s new discoveries. The Company amortizes these costs over the shorter of the legal life of the patent or its estimated economic life using the straightline method. The Company tests intangible assets with finite lives upon significant changes in the Company’s business environment and any resulting impairment charges are recorded at that time.

Revenue Recognition: Revenue is recognized when the four basic criteria of revenue recognition are met: (1) a contractual agreement exists; (2) transfer of rights has been completed; (3) the fee is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured.

The Company may enter into product development and other agreements and with collaborative partners. The terms of the agreements may include non-refundable signing and licensing fees, milestone payments and royalties on any product sales derived from collaborations.

The Company recognizes up front license payments as revenue upon delivery of the license only if the license has stand-alone value to the customer. However, where further performance criteria must be met, revenue is deferred and recognized on a straight line basis over the period the Company is expected to complete its performance obligations.

Royalty revenue will be recognized upon the sale of the related products provided the Company has no remaining performance obligations under the agreement.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors

Nemaura Medical Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Nemaura Medical Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income/(loss), changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Nemaura Medical Inc. and its subsidiaries as of March 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The Company has significant transactions and relationships with related parties that are described in Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements. It is possible that the terms of these transactions may not be the same as those that would result from transactions among unrelated parties.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES

Nemaura Medical Inc. (“Nemaura” or the “Company”), through its operating subsidiaries, performs medical device research and manufacturing of a continuous glucose monitoring system (“CGM”), named sugarBEAT. The sugarBEAT device is a non-invasive, wireless device for use by persons with Type I and Type II diabetes, and may also be used to screen pre-diabetic patients. The sugarBEAT device extracts analytes, such as glucose, to the surface of the skin in a non-invasive manner where it is measured using unique sensors and interpreted using a unique algorithm.

Nemaura is a Nevada holding company organized in 2013. Nemaura owns one hundred percent (100%) of Region Green Limited, a British Virgin Islands corporation formed (“RGL”) on December 12, 2013. Region Green Limited owns one hundred percent (100%) of the stock in Dermal Diagnostic (Holdings) Limited, an England and Wales corporation (“DDHL”) formed on December 11, 2013, which in turn owns one hundred percent (100%) of Dermal Diagnostics Limited, an England and Wales corporation formed on January 20, 2009 (“DDL”), and one hundred percent (100%) of Trial Clinic Limited, an England and Wales corporation formed on January 12, 2011 (“TCL”).

DDL is a diagnostic medical device company headquartered in Loughborough, Leicestershire, England, and is engaged in the discovery, development and commercialization of diagnostic medical devices. The Company’s initial focus has been on the development of the sugarBEAT device, which consists of a disposable patch containing a sensor, and a non-disposable miniature electronic watch with a re-chargeable power source, which is designed to enable trending or tracking of blood glucose levels.

The following diagram illustrates Nemaura’s corporate and shareholder structure as of March 31, 2016:

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

(a) Basis of presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the Company’s subsidiaries, DDL, TCL, DDHL and RGL. The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and all significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

The functional currency for the majority of the Company’s operations is the Great Britain Pound Sterling (“GBP”), and the reporting currency is the US Dollar.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Cash and Restricted Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash deposits maintained in the United Kingdom. From time to time, the Company’s cash account balances exceed amounts covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme. The Company has never suffered a loss due to such excess balances.

(b) Fair value of financial instruments

The Company’s financial instruments primarily consist of cash and accounts payable. As of the year-end dates, the estimated fair values of non-related party financial instruments were not materially different from their carrying values as presented, due to their short maturities. The fair value of amounts payable to related parties are not practicable to estimate due to the related party nature of the underlying transactions.

Property and equipment is stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally four years for fixtures and fittings.

(d) Intangible assets

Intangible assets consist of licenses and patents associated with the sugarBEAT device and are amortized on a straight-line basis, generally over their legal life.

(e) Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when the four basic criteria of revenue recognition are met: (1) a contractual agreement exists; (2) transfer of rights has been completed; (3) the fee is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured.

The Company recognizes up front license payments as revenue upon delivery of the license only if the license has stand alone value to the customer. However, where further performance criteria must be met, revenue is deferred and recognized on a straight line basis over the period the Company is expected to complete its performance obligations.

Royalty revenue will be recognized upon the sale of the related products provided the Company has no remaining performance obligations under the agreement.

(f) Research and Development Expenses

The Company charges research and development expenses to operations as incurred. Research and development expenses primarily consist of salaries and related expenses for personnel and outside contractor and consulting services. Other research and development expenses include the costs of materials and supplies used in research and development, prototype manufacturing, clinical studies, related information technology and an allocation of facilities costs.

(g) Income taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and operating loss carry forwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the carrying amount of deferred income tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized.

(h) Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. There were no potentially dilutive securities as of March 31, 2016 and 2015. For the year ended March 31, 2016, warrants to purchase 10 million shares of common stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share.

(i) Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 year. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

(j) Foreign currency translation

The functional currency of the Company is the Great Britain Pound Sterling (“GBP”). The reporting currency is the United States dollar (US$). Stockholders’ equity is translated into United States dollars from GBP at historical exchange rates. Assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates as of balance sheet date. Income and expenditures are translated at the average exchange rates prevailing during the reporting period. The translation rates are as follows for each year end to March 31:


	2016	2015
Year end GBP : US$ exchange rate	1:1.4318	1:1.5383
Average period/yearly GBP : US$ exchange rate	1:1.5224	1:1.5990

Adjustments resulting from translating the financial statements into the United States dollar are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in Stockholders’ Equity/(Deficit).

(k) Recent accounting pronouncements

The Company continually assesses any new accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability. When it is determined that a new accounting pronouncement affects the Company’s financial reporting, the Company undertakes a study to determine the consequences of the change to its consolidated financial statements and assures that there are proper controls in place to ascertain that the Company’s consolidated financial statements properly reflect the change.

In May 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts from Customers,” which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605),” and requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of potential goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to the exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016 and is to be applied retrospectively unless an extension of the effective date is granted by FASB, including interim periods within that reporting period, using one of two prescribed retrospective methods. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its operations and consolidated financial statements, including the transition method.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-14, “Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern: Disclosures about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.” The new standard requires management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date the financial statements are issued.

NOTE 7 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Nemaura Pharma Limited (Pharma) and NDM Technologies Limited (NDM) are entities controlled by the Company’s majority shareholder, DFH Chowdhury.

Pharma has invoiced DDL and TCL for research and development services. In addition, certain operating expenses of DDL and TCL were incurred and paid by Pharma and NDM. In accordance with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Staff Accounting Bulletin 55, these financial statements reflect all costs associated with the operations of DDL and TCL. While certain costs incurred by Pharma and NDM are directly attributable to DDL and TCL, other costs were shared between the organizations. In situations where the costs were shared, expense has been allocated between Pharma and NDM and DDL and TCL using a fixed percentage allocation. Management believes the methodologies used are reasonable and that the costs allocated are not materially different from what they would have been had Pharma and NDM been unaffiliated entities. DDL and TCL advanced Pharma certain amounts to cover a portion of the costs.

Following is a summary of activity between the Company and Pharma and NDM for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

There have been no disagreements between the Company and its independent accountants on any matter of accounting principles or practices, or financial statement disclosure.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Mr. Dewan F.H, Chowdhury, who is our Chief Executive Officer and our Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The term “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”), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting, which is described below.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Our internal control system is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).

Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of assets; provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management and directors; and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Because of our inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2016. In making this assessment we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013). As a result of its assessment, management identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. Based on the material weaknesses as described below, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of March 31, 2016.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that, there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. As a result of our assessment, management identified the following material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2016:

Our size has prevented us from being able to employ sufficient resources to enable us to have an adequate level of supervision and segregation of duties within our internal control system. Specifically, there is limited review of financial reporting and policies and procedures have not yet been implemented to analyze, document, monitor and report on non-routine and complex transactions that require management estimation or judgment.

Related party transactions. Specifically there are limited policies and procedures to ensure that financial statement disclosures reconcile fully to the underlying accounting records and that Board approval of these transactions is not documented.

Notwithstanding the identified material weaknesses, management believes the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K fairly represent in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows at and for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Remediation of Material Weaknesses

We are in the process of implementing improvements and remedial measures in response to these assessments and recommendations, including:

·	Assembling a team from our finance department to be responsible for the preparation of financial statements under U.S. Securities laws, including hiring additional qualified personnel such as a CFO with US listed company experience;

·	Organizing regular training sessions on US GAAP for our finance department in the form of workshops, seminars and newsletters as well as requiring our finance personnel to participate in annual in-house or public US GAAP training courses; and

·	Implementing stronger internal controls and processes over related party transactions; and

Establishing an audit committee with an “audit committee financial expert” within the definition of the applicable Securities and Exchange Commission. The committee will be helped by an outsourced internal audit department to review our internal control processes, policies and procedures to ensure compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

In addition of the immediate remediation plan, we will put our effort, in the coming year, towards improving our control environment. This project will be carried in several phases detailed below:

Phase 1: This phase is expected to take place over the summer and will encompass a detailed study that will allow us to perform a detailed assessment of our current Internal Control Over Financial Reporting against COSO 2013 and the requirements set forth by Sarbanes-Oxley Act section 404. This task will be conducted by an independent expert. Upon completion of the gap analysis, an action plan will be created.

·	Phase 2: During the second phase, over the first part of 2017, the Company will implement the action plan and the related measures.

Phase 3: In the third and last phase of this plan, once implemented, we will put significant emphasis on testing the operating effectiveness of the controls. In addition, the Company will focus on the design and implementation of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) in order to measure the quality of the processes in place, and the efficiency of the controls.

This plan will be achieved before the end of the current year ending March 31, 2017.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
