NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The Company was incorporated in Nevada on December 18, 2007. After a number of name changes, we again, changed our name to Peak Pharmaceuticals, Inc. on December 23, 2014. This name was consistent with our business operations and plans relating to development, manufacturing and marketing of hemp-based nutraceutical and supplement products for the human and animal health markets. On October 1, 2015, we discontinued certain operations of the Company.

 

Throughout this report, the terms “our,” “we,” “us,” and the “Company” refer to Peak Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and its subsidiary, Peak BioPharma Corp.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements, instructions to Form 10-Q, and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2017. In management's opinion, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation to make our financial statements not misleading have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year, or any other period.

 

Recent Pronouncements

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued that we adopt as of the specified effective date. We believe that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective may have an impact on our results of operations and financial position.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, to improve financial reporting about leasing transactions. This ASU will require organizations that lease assets (“lessees”) to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset on its balance sheet for all leases with terms of more than twelve months. A lease liability is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis and a right-of-use asset represents the lessee’s right to use, or control use of, a specified asset for the lease term. The amendments in this ASU simplify the accounting for sale and leaseback transactions primarily because lessees must recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. This ASU leaves the accounting for the organizations that own the assets leased to the lessee (“lessor”) largely unchanged except for targeted improvements to align it with the lessee accounting model and Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued authoritative guidance regarding the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The guidance is to be applied for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those annual periods, and early adoption is permitted. The guidance requires companies to apply the requirements retrospectively, modified retrospectively, or prospectively depending on the amendment(s) applied. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

 

In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016 – 10 “Revenue from Contract with Customers: identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing”. The amendments in this Update clarify the two following aspects (a) contracts with customers to transfer goods and services in exchange for consideration and (b) determining whether an entity’s promise to grant a license provides a customer with either a right to use the entity’s intellectual property (which is satisfied at a point in time) or a right to access the entity’s intellectual property (which is satisfied over time). The amendments in this Update are intended to reduce the degree of judgement necessary to comply with Topic 606. This guidance has no effective date as yet. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments”. The new guidance is intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Early adoption is permitted, provided that all of the amendments are adopted in the same period. The guidance requires application using a retrospective transition method. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

 

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) Restricted Cash”. The new guidance requires that the reconciliation of the beginning-of-period and end-of-period amounts shown in the statement of cash flows include restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents. If restricted cash is presented separately from cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet, companies will be required to reconcile the amounts presented on the statement of cash flows to the amounts on the balance sheet. Companies will also need to disclose information about the nature of the restrictions. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

 

In January 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805) Clarifying the Definition of a Business”. The amendments in this Update is to clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting including acquisitions, disposals, goodwill, and consolidation. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

 

On May 10, 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-09 “Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting”, which provides guidance to clarify when to account for a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award as a modification. Under the new guidance, modification accounting is required only if the fair value, the vesting conditions, or the classification of the award (as equity or liability) changes as a result of the change in terms or conditions. The guidance is effective prospectively for all companies for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.

 

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT’S LIQUIDITY PLANS

 

As of September 30, 2017, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $5,063,716 and a working capital deficiency of $200,314. During the quarters ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company used cash in operating activities of $155 and $126, respectively. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company recognizes it will need to raise additional capital in order to fund operations and meet its payment obligations. There is no assurance that additional financing will be available when needed or that management will be able to obtain financing on terms acceptable to the Company and whether the Company will generate revenues, become profitable and generate positive operating cash flow. If the Company is unable to raise sufficient additional funds on favorable terms, it will have to develop and implement a plan to further extend payables and to raise capital through the issuance of debt or equity on less favorable terms until sufficient additional capital is raised to support further operations. There can be no assurance that such a plan will be successful.

 

Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern and the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The carrying amounts of assets and liabilities presented in the consolidated financial statements do not necessarily represent realizable or settlement values. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Companies are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.

 

Accounts payable – related parties are the amounts payable to officers and directors of the Company for reimbursement of expenses they incurred on behalf of the Company as well as Directors’ fees and salaries. Included in accounts payable at December 31, 2017 are amounts totaling $47,877 (September 30, 2016 $47,877) owed to related parties.

Corporate Overview

 

We were incorporated as Surf A Movie Solutions Inc. in Nevada on December 18, 2007to engage in the business of the development, sales and marketing of online video stores. We were not successful in our efforts and have ceased this line of business.

 

On October 10, 2013, we entered into a joint venture agreement with Produced Water Solutions, Inc., a Colorado corporation, that was in the business of providing economically and environmentally sound solutions for the treatment and recycling of wastewater resulting principally from oil and gas exploration and production activities. As a result of our research of this business opportunity, on December 31, 2013, we determined not to move forward with this line of business.

 

In early March 2014, we entered into the business of developing, manufacturing and marketing pharmaceutical level products containing phytocannabinoids, an abundant and pharmaceutically active component of industrial hemp, for the prevention and alleviation of various conditions and diseases. In connection therewith, on March 17, 2014 we changed our name to Cannabis Therapy Corp. On December 23, 2014, we changed our name to Peak Pharmaceuticals, Inc. All of our business operations are carried on through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Peak BioPharma Corp., a Colorado corporation.

On July 29, 2014, through Peak BioPharma, we entered into a license agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Canna-Pet, LLC (“Licensor”), a Washington limited liability company, which owns the brand name “Canna-Pet” and certain related intellectual property including, but not limited to, trademarks and copyrights, formulations, recipes, production processes and systems, websites, domain names, customer lists, supplier lists, trade secrets and know-how, and other related intellectual property (collectively, the “Licensed Intellectual Property”), used by Licensor in the conduct of its business related to the production and sale of medical products made from industrial hemp which are intended exclusively for consumption by pets. Pursuant to the License Agreement, the Licensor granted to us a perpetual, exclusive, world-wide license to use the Licensed Intellectual Property in conjunction with our business and the production and sale of medical products made from industrial hemp as well as the right to sublicense the Licensed Intellectual Property to third parties. The License Agreement gives us the right to produce and sell existing products utilizing the Licensed Intellectual Property and to develop new products, jointly with Licensor or otherwise, based upon the Licensed Intellectual Property. The License Agreement provided us with an immediate revenue source and access to Licensor’s customer base. During the term of the license, all intellectual property rights in and to the Licensed Intellectual Property remained the exclusive property of Licensor.

 

In consideration of the grant of the license, we agreed to pay Licensor license fees in the form of royalty payments calculated on the basis of gross proceeds received by us from sales of products manufactured, marketed or sold by us utilizing the Licensed Intellectual Property or any subsequently developed intellectual property which is jointly owned by us and Licensor. We began selling Canna-Pet products in October 2014.

 

Based upon recent regulatory activity related to imposition of restrictions and limitations on the sale of hemp-based health products for pets, we elected to terminate our license agreement with the Licensor, effective as of October 1, 2015, and to cease all operations relating to sale of hemp-based products for pets.

 

On October 12, 2015, we entered into an agreement for the termination (“Termination Agreement”) of the License Agreement, effectively selling the discontinued operations. The Termination Agreement contained the following provisions:

 

·

·

Return of Other Property: In addition to return of the Licensed Intellectual Property, we agreed to transfer to Licensor all product inventory, Colorado hemp with permits and authorization, all production/fulfillment contracts, all e-commerce accounts and processing, all non-disclosure and research agreements and any and all other property in our possession which was used by us in the conduct of our business related to production and sale of medical cannabis products for pets made from hemp and low-THC cannabis plants.

 

·

Office Space, Equipment and Employees: In conjunction with the execution of the Termination Agreement, we granted the Licensor the right to use our office space, for the three-month period from October 1, 2015 through December 31, 2015, on a rent-free basis.

 

·

Consideration: As consideration for the cancellation of the License Agreement and the return of other property, as described above, the Licensor agreed to waive payment by us and to release us from liability for payment of any and all unpaid royalties, invoices and other amounts which were otherwise currently due and payable by us to Licensor for sales of Canna-Pet products for all periods through and including September 30, 2015.

 

·

Collections:On October 15, 2015, we forwarded to the Licensor all payments received by us after September 30, 2015 (net of amounts received by us for taxes, duties, governmental charges, freight or shipping charges, and the like) for Canna- Pet products sold on or after October 1, 2015.

Total operating expenses		$	7,025			$	1,883

 

General and administrative expense increased by $5,142 for the three months ended December 31, 2017 from the comparative period of 2016 due primarily to increased accounting fees incurred to bring our filings current with the SEC. Depreciation and amortization expense as well as stock-based compensation was$0 for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

 

Other Expenses

 

Interest expense increased from $0 to $604 for the three months ended December 31, 2017 from the comparative period of 2016 due to the issuance of two notes payable in March 2017.

 

Liquidity and Financial Condition

 

Working Capital Deficiency

 

		December 31, 2017				September 30, 2017
Current assets		$	2,836			$	2,991
Current liabilities			203,150				195,676
Working capital deficiency		$	(200,314	)		$	(192,685	)

 

The decrease in current assets is mainly due to the payment of vendor bills during the three months ended December 31, 2017. The increase in current liabilities is due to transfer agent and accounting fees incurred for the three-month period ending December 31, 2017.

Cash Flows

 

		Three Months Ended December 31,
		2017				2016
Net income (loss)		$	(7,629	)		$	(1,833	)
Net cash provided (used) in operating activities			(155	)			(126	)
Net cash used in investing activities			—				—
Net cash provided by financing activities			—				—
Increase (decrease) in cash		$	(155	)		$	(126	)

 

As of December 31, 2017, our cash balance was $2,836. The Company does not expect its current cash and operating income to be sufficient to meet its financial needs for continuing operations over the next twelve months.

 

Net cash used in operations for the three months ended December 31, 2017 was $155 mainly due to the net loss incurred for the period.

 

We need to raise additional operating capital on an immediate basis. Although the expenses of our operations have been significantly reduced due to the termination of the license agreement as outline in Note 3 of the financial statements, we need to still evaluate raising additional capital through the sale of equity securities, through an offering of debt securities or through borrowings from individuals. There can be no assurance that such a plan will be successful.

As of the date of this filing, we do not have enough sufficient cash on hand to cover our operating expenses through the next quarter. In the absence of any ongoing commercial operations, we need enough cash to pay certain outside professionals to maintain our compliance under the Securities Act of 1934. Management anticipates that it will require an additional $30,000 over the next twelve months to cover such costs.

 

Going Concern

The condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this report have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has cumulative net losses through December 31, 2017 of $5,063,716, as well as negative cash flows of $155 from operating activities. The Company's cash and cash equivalents balance as of December 31, 2017 is $2,836. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

While we will actively seek to identify sources of liquidity, there are no assurances that such additional sources of liquidity can be obtained on terms acceptable to us on a commercially reasonable basis, or at all. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Furthermore, our “going concern” and lack of commercial operations may make it more difficult for us to raise funds.

 

The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to obtain additional financing as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability. If the Company raises additional funds through the issuance of equity, the percentage ownership of current shareholders could be reduced, and such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to its common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, the Company may not be able to take advantage of prospective business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict its future plans for developing its business and achieving commercial revenues. If the Company is unable to obtain the necessary capital, the Company may have to cease operations.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

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

 

Effects of Inflation

 

We do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our business, revenues or operating results during the periods presented.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or 1934 Act, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. At the end of the quarter ended December 31, 2017, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.  

 

We do not have an audit committee: While we are not currently obligated to have an audit committee, including a member who is an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined in Item 407 of Regulation S-K, under applicable regulations or listing standards; however, it is management’s view that such a committee is an important internal control over financial reporting, the lack of which may result in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of internal controls and procedures.

 

Based on this evaluation, we determined that as of December 31, 2017, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the following:

 

·

We do not have a majority of independent directors on our board of directors, which may result in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures.

·

We have an inadequate number of personnel to properly implement control procedures.

·

Due to the size and lack of resources of our Company, we have not fully developed formal accounting policies and procedures.

·

We have not properly complied with all aspects of the Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in 2013.

 

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer), does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended December 31, 2017 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
