Management will continue to evaluate its obsolete inventory reserve throughout the year and make adjustments as needed.

 

NOTE 4.EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

The Company calculates net income (loss) per share in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) Topic 260 “Earnings per Share”.

The Company issued 30,000 shares for services valued at $7,500. We believe that Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, was available because these transactions did not involve a public offering and there was no general solicitation or general advertising involved in these transactions.

The second installment of $200,000 was to be paid when the machinery and equipment is ready to be shipped to the United States. The third installment of $100,000 is to be paid once the machinery and equipment is producing INSULTEX, and the fourth and final installment of $100,000 is to made after the first commercial production run of INSULTEX is completed. As of April 30, 2017, the Company has made payments of $500,000 in accordance with the agreement, and made a $100,000 pre-payment as the machine is not yet producing INSULTEX.

NOTE 10.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

On November 4, 2016, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) filed a complaint against the Company in the U.S. District Court Western District of Pennsylvania, number 16-1669. In the complaint, the FTC alleges, that, among other matters, the Company does not have substantiation of claims made by the Company regarding the R value and energy efficiency of its INSULTEX House Wrap products. The complaint asks as redress of rescission of revenue the Company received from the sale of House Wrap and a permanent injunction. The parties are currently in the discovery phase.

 

The Company strongly denies the allegation and intends to vigorously defend itself. It is the Company’s belief that the complaint is based on improper testing of the INSULTEX products using the wrong type of testing equipment.

We market and sell clothing products such as outdoor apparel, and cold weather gear called “Arctic Armor” that are made from INSULTEX, a material with buoyancy, scent block and thermal resistant properties. We also market our House Wrap product line which is a building material with thermal qualities. House Wrap is also made from INSULTEX. We obtain INSULTEX through a license agreement with the owner and manufacturer of the material. Since our formation we have devoted our efforts to:

 

·Completing the development, design and prototypes of our products,

Net loss   $(160,751)   -410.48%  $(145,535)   -131.97%  $(15,216)   10.46%

 

Revenues for the three month period ended April 30, 2017 were $39,162 compared to revenues of $110,278 for the three period ended April 30, 2016. The decrease is caused, by the decrease in our apparel sales and the sales in our House Wrap product line. The apparel sales were adversely affected by warm weather. In December 2016, we voluntarily ceased advertising our House Wrap products as a result of the legal action brought by the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”). See Note 9 of the Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements appearing elsewhere in this Report for a description of our segment products sales. Our net loss for the three month period ended April 30, 2017 was ($160,751).

 

Our selling, general and administrative expenses were $170,741 for the three month period ended April 30, 2017 compared to $152,090 for the three month period ended April 30, 2016. The increase was a result of professional expenses being incurred in the second quarter of 2017, in the amount of approximately $84,000, a 63% increase from the comparable period.

The following table shows a comparison of the results of operations between the six month periods ended April 30, 2017 and April 30, 2016:

 

   Six Month       Six Month

Revenues for the six month period ended April 30, 2017 were $208,372 compared to revenues of $338,164 for the six month period ended April 30, 2016. The decrease is caused, by the decrease in our apparel sales and the sales in our House Wrap product line. The apparel sales were adversely affected by warm weather. In December 2016, we voluntarily ceased advertising our House Wrap products as a result of the legal action brought by the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”). See Note 9 of the Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements appearing elsewhere in this Report for a description of our segment products sales. During the six month period ended April 30, 2017 House Wrap sales totaled $50,511 in comparison with $144,963 during the six month period ended April 30, 2016. Our net loss for the six month period ended April 30, 2017 was ($289,991).

 

Our selling, general and administrative expenses were $378,212 for the six months ended April 30, 2017 compared to $395,954 for the six month period ended April 30, 2016. The decrease was a result, in part, by lower seasonal help expense and less advertising and promotional expense. We do not expect our seasonal help expense or advertising and promotional expenses to increase in the current fiscal year ending October 31, 2017.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

During the period ended April 30, 2017, we funded our operations from revenues from sales.

 

Short Term: We will continue to fund our operations from sales and the sale of our securities. We continue to pay our creditors when payments are due. We will require more funds to be able to order the material for our INSULTEX products and to purchase equipment needed for the manufacture of the INSULTEX product. The Company reached an agreement with the manufacturer of the INSULTEX material to purchase a machine capable of producing the INSULTEX material. Also included in the proposed agreement will be the propriety formula that creates INSULTEX. The Company took delivery of the equipment in December 2015. The Company will have to have the machine installed and ensure that it can be operated in compliance with all environmental rules and regulations. The Company has not made an estimate of the cost required for bringing the operation of the machine into compliance with the environmental regulations but it is considered to be a substantial amount. We are in the permitting stage relating to environmental issues necessary to begin the installation of the equipment. The Company has currently made deposits of $600,000 on the equipment. The Company has incurred $17,000 of additional expenses related to shipping. The Company will produce INSULTEX under its own brand name. See Note 8 of the Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements.

 

Long Term: The Company will continue to fund its operations from revenues, borrowings from private parties and the possible sale of our securities. Should we not be able to rely on the private sources for borrowing and /or increased sales, our operations would be severely affected as we would not be able to fund our purchase orders to our suppliers for finished goods and our efforts to produce our own INSULTEX would be delayed.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1.LEGAL PROCEEDING

 

The Company is engaged in a matter with the Federal Trade Commission. A Form 8-K filed November 4, 2016, describing this matter is incorporated herein by reference.

 

ITEM 2.UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

 

During the six month period ended April 30, 2017, the Company issued stock to one director for services. The stock was issued at a price of $0.25 per share. The Company issued 30,000 shares for services valued at $7,500. We believe that Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, was available because these transactions did not involve a public offering and there was no general solicitation or general advertising involved in these transactions. We placed legends on the stock certificates stating that the securities were not registered under the Securities Act and set forth the restrictions on their transferability and sale.

 

Subsequent to April 30, 2016, the Company issued stock for services. On April 25, 2017, the Company issued 100,000 shares of stock for services valued at $30,000. On May 19, 2017, the Company issued 30,000 shares of stock for services valued at $10,200. We believe that Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, was available because these transactions did not involve a public offering and there was no general solicitation or general advertising involved in these transactions. We placed legends on the stock certificates stating that the securities were not registered under the Securities Act and set forth the restrictions on their transferability and sale.

 

ITEM 3.QUANTITATATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information otherwise required by this Item.

 

ITEM 4T.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Management has developed and implemented a policy and procedures for reviewing, on a quarterly basis, our disclosure controls and procedures. During the period ended April 30, 2017, our principle executive/financial officer concluded that these controls and procedures were ineffective. At this time we do not have the financial resources to employ a financial staff with accounting and financial expertise, once we have the necessary financial resources, we plan to hire and designate an individual responsible for identifying reportable developments and to implement procedures designed to remediate the material weakness by focusing additional attention and resources in our internal accounting functions. During the first and second quarter of 2017, the Company was not able to close the books and records in a timely fashion. Consequently, the Company was unable to file its Form 10-Q for the period ended January 31, 2017 and April 30, 2017 within the timeline established by the SEC and was required to seek an extension for filing the form.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

During the most recent fiscal quarter, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13(a)-15 or 15d-15 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
