ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
 
Overview
Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. is a corporation organized under the laws of Wyoming on April 25, 2006. We were organized to develop high strength fibers using recombinant DNA technology, for commercial applications in both the specialty fiber and technical textile industries. Specialty fibers are engineered for specific uses that require exceptional strength, flexibility, heat resistance and/or chemical resistance. The specialty fiber market is exemplified by two synthetic fiber products: aramid fibers and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber. The technical textile industry involves products for both industrial and consumer products, such as filtration fabrics, medical textiles (e.g., sutures and artificial ligaments), safety and protective clothing and fabrics used in military and aerospace applications (e.g., high-strength composite materials).
 
We are using genetic engineering technologies to develop fibers with greater strength, resiliency and flexibility for use in our target markets, namely the textile, specialty fiber and technical textile industries.
 
Collaborative Research and Licensing
In 2006, the Company entered into a licensing agreement with the University Of Wyoming, which granted the Company the exclusive global rights to use and commercialize patented genetic sequences in silkworm.  In exchange for this license the University of Wyoming received $10,000 cash payment and the University of Wyoming Foundation received 17,050,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Under the terms of the licensing agreement, the Company is obligated to provide annual license fees of $10,000 and support the University research with $13,700 annually. As of today, the Company is current on the $10,000 per year payment and are accruing the $13,700 payments. No royalties are required. This agreement has remained unchanged since 2006.  The Company has not signed any other agreements with the University of Wyoming. 
 
In 2007, the Company entered into the first of a series of collaborative research agreements with the University of Notre Dame (“Notre Dame”). The Company provides financial support to ongoing research and development of transgenic silkworms and the creation of recombinant silk fibers. In exchange, the Company has an option to obtain the exclusive global commercialization rights to the technology developed pursuant to the research effort.
 
Following the first collative research agreement, the Company entered into successive collaborative research agreements to provide different levels of financial support.  The trend has been for an increase in financial support for the research and development in nearly every successive agreement.  In June 2012, we entered into the Intellectual Property / Collaborative Research Agreement with Notre Dame (“2012 Notre Dame Research Agreement”). On March 4, 2015 we entered into a new Intellectual Property / Collaborative Research Agreement with Notre Dame extending the agreement through March 2016 (“2015 Notre Dame Research Agreement”). Under the 2015 Notre Dame Research agreement the Company provided approximately $534,000 in financial support. On September 20, 2015, this agreement was amended to increase the total funding by approximately $179,000. In February 2016, this agreement was extended to July 31, 2016. In August 2016, this agreement was extended to December 31, 2016. In May 2017 this agreement was amended to increase the total funding by approximately $189,000 and the duration of this agreement was extended to September 30, 2017. The Company did not extend the agreement after September 30, 2017.  The Company anticipates negotiating a new Collaborative Research Agreement with the University of Notre Dame for 2018 at reduced levels of funding.
 
In 2011, the Company exercised its option to obtain the global commercialization rights to the technology developed under the collaborative research agreements with Notre Dame.  That has resulted in a separate license agreement with Notre Dame.  Pursuant to that license agreement, Notre Dame has filed an international patent application and numerous national patent applications on technology relating to the creation and use of recombinant spider silks.  The license agreement obligates the Company to reimburse Notre Dame for costs associated with the filing, prosecuting and maintaining of such patents and patent applications.  In exchange for the rights to commercialization, Notre Dame has received 2,200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and the Company has agreed to pay Notre Dame royalties of 2% of the Company’s gross sales of the licensed products and 10% of any sublicensing fees received by the Company on licensed technology. The Company has also agreed to pay to Notre Dame $50,000 a year, which will be reduced from the total amount of royalties paid in the same year. The $50,000 payment to Notre Dame is not owed for any year in which the Company is sponsoring research within Notre Dame.
 
On October 15, 2013, the Company entered into an intellectual property agreement with a scientific researcher relating to the development of new recombinant silk fibers.  Under the terms of that agreement, the scientific researcher would transfer to the Company his rights of intellectual property, inventions and trade secrets which the researcher develops relating to recombinant silk.  The researcher received 8,000,000 common stock warrants from the Company, exercisable 24 months from the date of the agreement.  The researcher would also receive additional warrants when and if the researcher develops advanced recombinant silk fibers for the Company’s use.  Under the terms of the agreement, the researcher would receive 10,000,000 warrants in the event that he develops a new recombinant silk fiber with certain performance characteristics, and another 10,000,000 warrants if he develops a second recombinant silk fiber with certain characteristics.  If the researcher performs the contract in good faith the consultant will be entitled to an additional 8,000,000 warrants on the two year anniversary of the agreement.  The researcher received the 10,000,000 warrants for the creation of a new transgenic meeting performance characteristics and a warrant of 8,000,000 for performance of the contract in good faith. The warrants described above all contain a cashless exercise provision and are exercisable on the 24 month anniversary of the date on which they were issuable under the agreement.

On December 30, 2015, the Company entered into a cooperative agreement for the research and pilot production of hybrid silkworms in Vietnam.  Under this agreement the Company will establish a subsidiary in Vietnam where it will develop and produce hybrid silkworms. As of December 31, 2017, the subsidiary was not yet established and no work has been performed in Vietnam for the year ended December 31, 2017.
 
The Market
We are focusing our work on the creation of new fibers with unique properties including fibers with potential high performance and technical fiber applications. The performance fiber market is exemplified by two classes of product: aramid fibers, and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber. These products service the need for materials with high strength, resilience, and flexibility. Because these synthetic performance fibers are stronger and tougher than steel, they are used in a wide variety of military, industrial, and consumer applications.
 
Among the users of performance fibers are the military and police, which employ them for ballistic protection. The materials are also used for industrial applications requiring superior strength and toughness, i.e. critical cables and abrasion/impact resistant components. Performance fibers are also employed in safety equipment, high strength composite materials for the aero-space industry and for ballistic protection by the defense industry.
 
The global market for technical textiles was estimated at greater than $133 billion in 2015.(1)
 
These are industrial materials which have become essential products for both industrial and consumer applications. The market for technical textiles can be defined as consisting of:
 
Medical textiles;
Geotextiles;
 
Textiles used in Defense and Military;
Safe and Protective Clothing;
 
Filtration Textiles;
Textiles used in Transportation;
 
Textiles used in Buildings;
Composites with Textile Structure;
 
Functional and Sportive Textiles.
 
We believe that the superior mechanical characteristics of the next generation of protein-based polymers (in other words, genetically engineered silk fibers), will open up new applications for the technology. The materials which we are working to produce are many times tougher and stronger than steel. These fibers are often referred to as “super fibers.”

This comparison table was the result of research performed by Randolph Lewis, Ph.D. at the University of Wyoming. Such work was summarized in an article entitled “Spider Silk: Ancient Ideas for New Biomaterials” which was published in Chemicals Review, volume 106, issue 9, pages 3672 – 3774. The measurements in joules in the table above are a conversion from Dr. Lewis’ measurements in newtons/meter squared.

We believe that the genetically engineered protein-based fibers we seek to produce have properties that are in some ways superior to the materials currently available in the marketplace. For example, as noted above, the ability of spider silk to absorb in excess of 100,000 joules of kinetic energy per kilogram makes it a potentially ideal material for structural blast protection.
 
Production of this material in commercial quantities holds the potential of a life-saving ballistic resistant material, which is lighter, thinner, more flexible, and tougher than steel. Other applications for spider silk based recombinant fibers include use as structural material and for any application in which light weight and high strength are required. We believe that fibers made with recombinant protein-based polymers will make significant inroads into the specialty fiber and technical textile markets.
 
Our Technology
 
While scientists have been able to replicate the proteins that are the building blocks of spider silk, the technological barrier that has stymied production until now has been the inability to form these proteins into a fiber with the desired mechanical characteristics and to do so in a cost effective manner.
 
We have licensed the right to use the patented genetic sequences and genetic engineering technology developed in university laboratories. The Company has been working collaboratively with university laboratories to develop fibers with the mechanical characteristics of spider silk. We are applying this proprietary genetic engineering technology to domesticated silkworms, which are already the most efficient commercial producers of silk.
 
Our technology builds upon the unique advantages of the domesticated silkworm for this application. The silkworm is ideally suited to produce recombinant protein fiber because it is already an efficient commercial and industrial producer of protein based polymers. Forty percent (40%) of the caterpillars’ weight is devoted to the silk glands. The silk glands produce large volumes of protein, called fibroin, which are then spun into a composite protein thread (silk).
 
We are working to use our genetic engineering technology to create recombinant silk polymers. On September 29, 2010, we jointly announced with the University of Notre Dame the success of our collaborative research with Notre Dame in creating approximately twenty different strains of transgenic silkworm which produce recombinant silk polymers. In April 2011, we entered into a licensing agreement with Sigma-Aldrich which provides us the use of Sigma-Aldrich’s zinc finger technology to accelerate and enhance our product development.
 
A part of our intellectual property portfolio is the exclusive right to use certain patented spider silk gene sequences in silkworm. Under the Exclusive License Agreement with the University of Wyoming, we have obtained certain exclusive rights to use numerous genetic sequences which are the subject of US patents.
 
The introduction of the gene sequence, in the manner employed by us, results in a germline transformation and is therefore self-perpetuating. This technology is in essence a protein expression platform which has other potential applications including diagnostics and pharmaceutical production.
 
The Company
Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. (Kraig) is a Wyoming corporation. Our shares are traded on the OTCQB under the ticker symbol: KBLB. There are 816,847,910 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of March 13, 2018. Kim Thompson, our founder and CEO, owns approximately 28.18% of the issued and outstanding common shares. There are 2 shares of super voting preferred stock issued and outstanding as of March 15, 2018, all of which Kim Thompson owns.
 
The inventor of our technology concept, Kim Thompson, is the founder of Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. Our protein expression system is, in concept, scalable, cost effective, and capable of producing a wide range of proteins and materials.
 
On April 8, 2011, Kraig and Sigma-Aldrich Co., an Illinois corporation (“Sigma”) entered into a License and Option Agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, Sigma will provide Kraig with its proprietary genetic engineering tools and expertise in zinc finger nuclease to enable Kraig to significantly accelerate its product development. In addition to providing the customized tools and technological know-how, Sigma has granted Kraig an option for a commercial license to use the technology in the textile, technical textile and biomedical markets. Sigma will create customized zinc fingers for Kraig's use in its development of spider silk polymers and technical textiles.
 
In September 2010, the Company announced that it had succeeded in introducing spider silk DNA in silkworm with the result that the transgenic silkworm were producing new recombinant silk fibers. These fibers are a combination of natural silkworm silk proteins and proteins that the silkworms are making as a result of the introduction of the spider silk DNA. The Company announced that it had created approximately twenty different transgenic silkworm strains producing recombinant silk.

We entered into an intellectual property and collaborative research agreement with the University of Notre Dame in 2007. That agreement was subsequently extended and expanded to include research and development of certain platform technologies with potential applications for diagnostics and pharmaceutical production. On March 20, 2010, the Company extended its agreement with Notre Dame through February 28, 2011. Pursuant to these agreements the genetic work has been conducted primarily within Notre Dame’s laboratories. In June 2012, we entered into the Intellectual Property / Collaborative Research Agreement with Notre Dame (“2012 Notre Dame Research Agreement”).  On March 4, 2015 we entered into a new Intellectual Property / Collaborative Research Agreement with University of Notre Dame extending the agreement through March 2016 (“2015 Notre Dame Research Agreement”).  Under the 2015 Notre Dame Research agreement the Company provided approximately $534,000 in financial support.  On September 20, 2015 this agreement was amended to increase the total funding by approximately $179,000. In February 2016 this agreement was extended to July 31, 2016. In August 2016 this agreement was extended to December 31, 2016. In May 2017 this agreement was amended to increase the total funding by approximately $189,000 and the duration of this agreement was extended to September 30, 2017. The Company did not extend the agreement after September 30, 2017.  The Company anticipates negotiating a new Collaborative Research Agreement with the University of Notre Dame for 2018 at reduced levels of funding. For the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, the Company paid $258,892 and $397,136 in research and development fees.
 
We also entered into an intellectual property and sponsored research agreement with the University of Wyoming in 2006.
 
License Agreements/Intellectual Property
We have obtained certain rights to use a number of university created, and patented, spider silk proteins, gene sequences and methodologies.
 
Between 2010 and 2014 the University of Notre Dame filed approximately 12 patent applications pursuant to our intellectual property and collaborative research agreement.  Under the terms of that agreement the Company has an option for the exclusive commercial rights to that technology. The Company has notified the University of its exercise of that option.  These patent applications include coverage in the United States, Europe, Korea, Vietnam, Brazil, India, China, Australia, Japan, and Canada.  As of the date hereof, all of these patents were pending applications and none have been issued.
  
We do not own any patents. In 2014, seven trademarks were issued to the Company which it intends to use for product branding in the future. The details of such trademarks are set forth in the following table:

License Agreement with Notre Dame University
In 2011, the Company exercised its option to obtain the global commercialization rights to the technology developed under the collaborative research agreements with Notre Dame.  On October 28, 2011, the Company entered into a license agreement with the University of Notre Dame. Under the agreement, the Company received exclusive and non-exclusive rights to certain spider silk technologies including commercial rights with the right to sublicense such intellectual property. 
 
In consideration of the licenses granted under the Agreement, the Company agreed to issue to the University of Notre Dame 2,200,000 shares of its common stock and to pay a royalty of 2% of net sales.
 
The Agreement has a term of 20 years which can be extended on an annual basis after that. It can be terminated by the University of Notre Dame if the Company defaults on its obligations under the Agreement and fails to cure such default within 90 days of a written notice by the university. The Company can terminate the Agreement upon a 90 day written notice subject to payment of a termination fee of $5,000 if the termination takes place within 2 years after its effectiveness, $10,000 if the termination takes place within 4 years after its effectiveness, and $20,000 if the Agreement is terminated after 4 years.
 
Exclusive License Agreement with University of Wyoming
In May 2006, we entered into a license agreement with the University of Wyoming, pursuant to which we have licensed the right to commercialize the production by silkworms of certain synthetic and natural spider silk proteins and the genetic sequencing for such spider silk proteins. These spider silk proteins and genetic sequencing are covered by patents held by the University of Wyoming. Our license allows us only to use silkworms to produce the licensed proteins and genetic sequencing. We have the right to sublicense the intellectual property that we license from the University of Wyoming. Our license agreement with the University of Wyoming requires that we pay licensing and research fees to the university in exchange for an exclusive license in our field of use for certain university-developed intellectual property including patented spider silk gene sequences. Pursuant to the agreement, we issued 17,500,000 shares of our Class A common stock to the University Foundation. Our license agreement with the University of Wyoming will continue until the later of (i) expiration of the last-to-expire patent we license from the University of Wyoming under this license agreement in such country or (ii) ten years from the date of first commercial sale of a licensed product in such country. There are no royalties payable to the University of Wyoming under the terms of our agreement with them.
 
We anticipate making arrangements with the University of Wyoming within the next twelve months to address accrued fees. If we fail to make such arrangements the University of Wyoming could terminate our license agreement. We anticipate that such a termination would result in a loss of three to nine months of research time and result in increased research and development costs in the range of $30,000 to $140,000.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
 
Caution Regarding Forward-Looking Information
 
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and result of operations should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes to those financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-K. This discussion contains forward-looking statements and involves numerous risks and uncertainties contained in this report and the other reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.
 
Plan of Operations
 
During the next twelve months, we expect to take the following steps in connection with the further development of our business and the implementation of our plan of operations:
 
We have spent approximately $258,892 between January 2017 and December 2017 on collaborative research and development of high strength polymers at the University of Notre Dame. We plan to accelerate both our microbiology and selective breeding programs as well as providing more resources for our material testing protocols in 2018. We are currently reviewing plans for research spending for 2018. We expect to continue funding the collaborative research and development at the University of Notre Dame.  
 
We expect to spend approximately $13,700 on collaborative research and development at the University of Wyoming over the next twelve months. This level of research spending at the university is also a requirement of our licensing agreement with them.
 
 
We will actively consider pursuing collaborative research opportunities with other university laboratories in the area of high strength polymers. If our financing allows, management will give strong consideration to increasing the depth of our research to include polymer production technologies that are closely related to our core research. 
 
We will consider buying an established revenue producing company in a compatible business, in order to broaden our financial base and facilitate the commercialization of our products. We expect to use a combination of stock and cash for any such purchase.
 
 
We will also actively consider pursuing collaborative research opportunities with both private and university laboratories in areas of research which overlap the company’s existing research and development. One such potential area for collaborative research which the company is considering is protein expression platforms. If our financing will allow, management will give strong consideration to increasing the breadth of our research to include protein expression platform technologies.
 
 
We plan to actively pursue collaborative research and product testing, opportunities with companies in the biotechnology, materials, textile and other industries.
 
 
We plan to actively pursue collaborative commercialization, marketing and manufacturing opportunities with companies in the textile and material sectors for the fibers we developed and for any new polymers that we created in 2018.
 
 
We plan to actively pursue the development of commercial scale production of our recombinant materials including Monster SilkTM and Dragon SilkTM.
 
Limited Operating History
 
We have not previously demonstrated that we will be able to expand our business through an increased investment in our research and development efforts. We cannot guarantee that the research and development efforts described in this filing will be successful. Our business is subject to risks inherent in growing an enterprise, including limited capital resources, risks inherent in the research and development process and possible rejection of our products in development.
 
If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue our research and development and other operations. Equity financing will result in a dilution to existing shareholders.

 Net Revenues:  During the year ended December 31, 2017, we realized $97,318 of revenues from our business. During the year ended December 31, 2016, we realized $31,858 of revenues from our business. The change in revenues between the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $65,460 or 205.47%.  This increase was related to the US Defense Department exercise of our contract option extention and increased funding levels. 
 
Research and development expenses:  During year ended December 31, 2017 we incurred $258,892 research and development expenses. During year ended December 31, 2016 we incurred $397,136 of research and development expenses, a decrease of $138,244 or 34.81% compared with the same period in 2016. The research and development expenses are attributable to the research and development with the Notre Dame University; this increase was due to the timing of research related activity and related charges and the hiring of an additional lab team member.
 
Professional Fees:  During year ended December 31 2017, we incurred $322,215 professional expenses, which decreased by $73,910 or 18.66% from $396,125 for year ended December 31, 2016. The decrease in professional fees expense was attributable to decreased expenses related to investor relations services during year ended December 31, 2017.
 
Officers Salary:  During year ended December 31, 2017, officers’ salary expenses decreased to $444,596 or 0.60% from $447,283 for year ended December 31, 2016. 
 
General and Administrative Expense: General and administrative expenses decreased by $519,868 or 29.93% to $1,217,050 for year ended December 31, 2017 from $1,736,918 for year ended December 31, 2016. Our general and administrative expenses for year ended December 31, 2017 consisted of consulting fees of $81,280 and other general and administrative expenses (which includes expenses such as Auto, Business Development, SEC Filing, Investor Relations, General Office, warrant Compensation) of $1,048,939, Travel of $30,979, office salary of $55,852 for a total of $1,217,050. Our general and administrative expenses for year ended December 31, 2016 consisted of salaries and benefits of $11,088, consulting fees of $23,457, and other general and administrative expenses (which includes expenses such as: Auto, Business Development, SEC Filing, Investor Relations, General Office, warrant Compensation of $1,685,825, and travel of $16,548 for a total of $1,736,918. The primary reason for the decrease in comparing year ended December 31, 2017 to the corresponding period for 2016 was mainly due to general business expenses and warrants issuances for services.
 
Rent – Related Party:  During the year ended December 31 2017, rent- related party expense increased to $10,560 or 100% from $0 for the year ended December 31, 2016. The increase in rent-related party expense was attributable to the signing on January 23, 2017 an 8 year property lease with the Company’s President.
 
Gain on Forgiveness of Debt:  Gain on forgiveness of debt decreased by $11,191 from $0 for the year ended December 31, 2017 from $11,191 for the year ended December 31, 2016. The decrease was primarily due to no debt forgiven during the period.
 
Interest Expense:  Interest expense increased by $37,675 to $177,105 for the year ended December 31, 2017 from $139,430 for the year ended December 31, 2016. The increase was primarily due to interest on the related party loans and accounts payable and accrued expenses to the related parties.
 
Net Loss:  Net loss decreased by $740,743, or 24.10%, to a net loss of $2,333,100 for the year ended December 31, 2017 from a net loss of $3,073,843 for the year ended December 31, 2016. This decrease in net loss was driven primarily by decreases in research and development, warrant compensation, and professional fees

Capital Resources and Liquidity
 
Our financial statements have been presented on the basis that we have a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As presented in the financial statements, we incurred a net loss of $2,333,100 during the year ended December 31, 2017, and losses are expected to continue in the near term. The accumulated deficit is $25,719,079 at December 31, 2017. Refer to Note 5 for our discussion of stockholder deficit. We have been funding our operations through private loans and the sale of common stock in private placement transactions. Refer to Note 4 and Note 5 in the condensed financial statements for our discussion of notes payable and shares issued, respectively. Our cash resources are insufficient to meet our planned business objectives without additional financing. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of our company to continue as a going concern.
 
Management anticipates that significant additional expenditures will be necessary to develop and expand our business before significant positive operating cash flows can be achieved. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise additional capital and to ultimately achieve sustainable revenues and profitable operations. At December 31, 2017, we had $18,150 of cash on hand. These funds are insufficient to complete our business plan and as a consequence, we will need to seek additional funds, primarily through the issuance of debt or equity securities for cash to operate our business. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to us. Even if we are able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for our stock holders, in case or equity financing.
 
Management has undertaken steps as part of a plan to improve operations with the goal of sustaining our operations for the next twelve months and beyond. These steps include (a) raising additional capital and/or obtaining financing; (b) controlling overhead and expenses; and (c) executing material sales or research contracts. There can be no assurance that the Company can successfully accomplish these steps and it is uncertain that the Company will achieve a profitable level of operations and obtain additional financing. There can be no assurance that any additional financing will be available to the Company on satisfactory terms and conditions, if at all. As of the date of this Report, we have not entered into any formal agreements regarding the above.
 
In the event the Company is unable to continue as a going concern, the Company may elect or be required to seek protection from its creditors by filing a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or may be subject to an involuntary petition in bankruptcy. To date, management has not considered this alternative, nor does management view it as a likely occurrence.
 
Cash, total current assets, total assets, total current liabilities and total liabilities as of December 31, 2017 as compared to December 31, 2016, were as follows:

 At December 31, 2017, we had a working capital deficit of $3,441,818, compared to a working capital deficit of $2,412,681 at December 31, 2016. Current liabilities increased to $3,490,305 at December 31, 2017 from $2,744,472 at December 31, 2016, primarily as a result of accounts payable and accrued compensation.
 
For the year ended December 31, 2017, net cash used in operations of $729,542 was the result of a net loss of $2,333,100 offset by depreciation expense of $20,291, warrants issued to related parties of $17,473, warrants issued to consultants of $848,011, increase in prepaid expenses of $6,658, decrease in accounts receivable of $5,986, an increase of accrued expenses and other payables-related party of $551,237, and an increase in accounts payable of $164,595. For the year ended December 31, 2016, net cash used in operations of $1,011,841 was the result of a net loss of $3,073,843 offset by depreciation expense of $16,974, gain on forgiveness of debt of $11,191, warrants issued to related parties of $193,654, increase in prepaid expenses of $679, an increase of accrued expenses and other payables-related party of $498,640 and a decrease in accounts payable of $16,425.
 
Net cash used in our investing activities were $31,167 and $2,488 for the year ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Our investing activities for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 are attributable to purchases of fixed assets.
 
Our financing activities resulted in a cash inflow of $480,000 for the years ended December 31, 2017, which is represented by $450,000 proceeds from issuance of common stock and $30,000 proceeds from shareholder note payable. Our financing activities resulted in cash inflow of $1,075,000 for the year ended December 31, 2016, which is represented by $1,025,000proceeds from issuance of common stock and $50,000 proceeds from shareholder note payable.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
Our financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, and revenue and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in our external disclosures including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.
 
Our significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 1 of our financial statements. While all these significant accounting policies impact its financial condition and results of operations, we view certain of these policies as critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have the most significant impact on our financial statements and require management to use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Our management believes that given current facts and circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other reasonable judgments or estimate methodologies would cause effect on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity for the periods presented in this report.
  
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350). The amendments in this update simplify the test for goodwill impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the impairment test, which required the entity to perform procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities following the procedure that would be required in determining fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. The amendments in this update are effective for public companies for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805); Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The amendments in this update clarify the definition of a business to help companies evaluate whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The amendments in this update are effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
In July 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). The amendments in Part I of this Update change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments.
 
As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option) no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value as a result of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments, the amendments require entities that present earnings per share (EPS) in accordance with Topic 260 to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS. Convertible instruments with embedded conversion options that have down round features are now subject to the specialized guidance for contingent beneficial conversion features (in Subtopic 470-20, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options), including related EPS guidance (in Topic 260). The amendments in Part II of this Update recharacterize the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of Topic 480 that now are presented as pending content in the Codification, to a scope exception.
 
Those amendments do not have an accounting effect. For public business entities, the amendments in Part I of this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The Company is currently reviewing the impact of adoption of ASU 2017-11on its financial statements.
 
 In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-01, which amends the guidance in U.S. GAAP on the classification and measurement of financial instruments. Changes to the current guidance primarily affect the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, the ASU clarifies guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and upon adoption, an entity should apply the amendments by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet at the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. Early adoption is not permitted except for the provision to record fair value changes for financial liabilities under the fair value option resulting from instrument-specific credit risk in other comprehensive income. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.
 
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 affects any entity that enters into a lease, with some specified scope exemptions. The guidance in this Update supersedes Topic 840, Leases. The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For public companies, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2016-02 on our financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) that clarifies how to apply revenue recognition guidance related to whether an entity is a principal or an agent. ASU 2016-08 clarifies that the analysis must focus on whether the entity has control of the goods or services before they are transferred to the customer and provides additional guidance about how to apply the control principle when services are provided and when goods or services are combined with other goods or services. The effective date for ASU 2016-08 is the same as the effective date of ASU 2014-09 as amended by ASU 2015-14, for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years. The Company has not yet determined the impact of ASU 2016-08 on its financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation, or ASU No. 2016-09. The areas for simplification in this Update involve several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. For public entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. Amendments related to the timing of when excess tax benefits are recognized, minimum statutory withholding requirements, forfeitures, and intrinsic value should be applied using a modified retrospective transition method by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity as of the beginning of the period in which the guidance is adopted. Amendments related to the presentation of employee taxes paid on the statement of cash flows when an employer withholds shares to meet the minimum statutory withholding requirement should be applied retrospectively. Amendments requiring recognition of excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies in the income statement and the practical expedient for estimating expected term should be applied prospectively. An entity may elect to apply the amendments related to the presentation of excess tax benefits on the statement of cash flows using either a prospective transition method or a retrospective transition method. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2016-09 on our financial statements.
 
In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which provides further guidance on identifying performance obligations and improves the operability and understandability of licensing implementation guidance. The effective date for ASU 2016-10 is the same as the effective date of ASU 2014-09 as amended by ASU 2015-14, for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years.  In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) - Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients,” which amends the guidance on transition, collectability, non-cash consideration, and the presentation of sales and other similar taxes. ASU 2016-12 clarifies that, for a contract to be considered completed at transition, all (or substantially all) of the revenue must have been recognized under legacy GAAP. In addition, ASU 2016-12 clarifies how an entity should evaluate the collectability threshold and when an entity can recognize nonrefundable consideration received as revenue if an arrangement does not meet the standard’s contract criteria. The standard allows for both retrospective and modified retrospective methods of adoption. The Company has not yet determined the impact of ASU 2016-10 on its financial statements.
 
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Statements," which requires companies to measure credit losses utilizing a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2019 (fiscal year 2021 for the Company). The Company has not yet determined the potential effects of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on its Financial Statements.
 
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, "Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments," which aims to eliminate diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows under Topic 230, Statement of Cash Flows, and other Topics. ASU 2016-15 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2017 (fiscal year 2019 for the Company). The Company has not yet determined the potential effects of the adoption of ASU 2016-15 on its Financial Statements.
 
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, ("ASU 2016-18") Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. This ASU is intended to provide guidance on the presentation of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents and reduce the diversity in practice. This ASU requires amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents to be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts on the statement of cash flows. We elected as permitted by the standard, to early adopt ASU 2016-18 retrospectively as of January 1, 2017 and have applied to all periods presented herein. The adoption of ASU 2016-18 did not have a material impact to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The effect of the adoption of ASU 2016-18 on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows was to include restricted cash balances in the beginning and end of period balances of cash and cash equivalent and restricted cash. The change in restricted cash was previously disclosed in operating activities and financing activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
 
All other newly issued accounting pronouncements but not yet effective have been deemed either immaterial or not applicable 
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as “special purpose entities” (SPEs).

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and
 
Stockholders of Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc.
 
Opinion on the Financial Statements
 
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2017, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
Basis for Opinion
 
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
 
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company suffered a net loss from operations and has a net capital deficiency, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding those matters are described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Financial Statements
As of December 31, 2017 and 2016
 
 NOTE 1    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION
 
(A)  Organization
 
Kraig Biocraft Laboratories, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the laws of the State of Wyoming on April 25, 2006. The Company was organized to develop high strength, protein based fiber, using recombinant DNA technology, for commercial applications in the textile and specialty fiber industries.
 
(B) Use of Estimates
 
In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
(C) Cash
 
For purposes of the cash flow statements, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.  There were no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2017 or December 31, 2016.
 
(D) Loss Per Share
 
Basic and diluted net loss per common share is computed based upon the weighted average common shares outstanding as defined by FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 260, “Earnings per Share.” For December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, warrants were not included in the computation of income/ (loss) per share because their inclusion is anti-dilutive.
 
The computation of basic and diluted loss per share for December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 excludes the common stock equivalents of the following potentially dilutive securities because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive:
 

 
 
December 31, 2017

Total
  32,800,002 
  47,800,002 
 
(E) Research and Development Costs
 
The Company expenses all research and development costs as incurred for which there is no alternative future use. These costs also include the expensing of employee compensation and employee stock based compensation.
 
(F) Income Taxes
 
The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740-10-25”).  Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred 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.  Deferred 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.  Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
 
The net deferred tax liability in the accompanying balance sheets includes the following amounts of deferred tax assets and liabilities:
 
 
 
2017
 
 
2016
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Expected income tax recovery (expense) at the statutory rate of 34%

The valuation allowance was established to reduce the deferred tax asset to the amount that will more likely than not be realized. This is necessary due to the Company’s continued operating losses and the uncertainty of the Company’s ability to utilize all of the net operating loss carryforwards before they will expire through the year 2037.
 
The net change in the valuation allowance for the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 was an increase of $498,906 and $510,677 respectively.
 
On December 22, 2017, the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the Tax Act) was enacted into law and the new legislation contains several key tax provisions that affected us, including a one-time mandatory transition tax on accumulated foreign earnings and a reduction of the corporate income tax rate to 21% effective January 1, 2018, among others. We are required to recognize the effect of the tax law changes in the period of enactment, such as determining the transition tax, remeasuring our U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities as well as reassessing the net realizability of our deferred tax assets and liabilities. In December 2017, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (SAB 118), which allows us to record provisional amounts during a measurement period not to extend beyond one year of the enactment date. Since the Tax Act was passed late in the fourth quarter of 2017, and ongoing guidance and accounting interpretation are expected over the next 12 months, we consider the accounting of the transition tax, deferred tax re-measurements, and other items to be incomplete due to the forthcoming guidance and our ongoing analysis of final year-end data and tax positions. We expect to complete our analysis within the measurement period in accordance with SAB 118.
 
Effective January 1, 2009, the Company adopted guidance regarding accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. This guidance clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold an income tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements and applies to all federal or state income tax positions. Each income tax position is assessed using a two-step process. A determination is first made as to whether it is more likely than not that the income tax position will be sustained, based upon technical merits, upon examination by the taxing authorities. If the income tax position is expected to meet the more likely than not criteria, the benefit recorded in the financial statements equals the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely to be realized upon its ultimate settlement. As of December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 there were no amounts that had been accrued in respect to uncertain tax positions.
  
Fair value accounting requires bifurcation of embedded derivative instruments such as conversion features in convertible debt or equity instruments, and measurement of their fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. In assessing the convertible debt instruments, management determines if the convertible debt host instrument is conventional convertible debt and further if there is a beneficial conversion feature requiring measurement. If the instrument is not considered conventional convertible debt, the Company will continue its evaluation process of these instruments as derivative financial instruments.
 
Once determined, derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each reporting period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as an adjustment to fair value of derivatives. In addition, the fair value of freestanding derivative instruments such as warrants, are also valued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
 
(H) Stock-Based Compensation
 
In December 2004, the FASB issued FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation.  Under FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans.  As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value.  Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.  The Company applies this statement prospectively.

As of December 31, 2017 and 2016
 
 Equity instruments (“instruments”) issued to other than employees are recorded on the basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 718.  FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees defines the measurement date and recognition period for such instruments.  In general, the measurement date is when either a (a) performance commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) the earlier of (i) the non-employee performance is complete or (ii) the instruments are vested. The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a period based on the facts and circumstances of each particular grant as defined in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.
 
The Company operates in one segment and therefore segment information is not presented.
 
 (J) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350). The amendments in this update simplify the test for goodwill impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the impairment test, which required the entity to perform procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of its assets and liabilities following the procedure that would be required in determining fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. The amendments in this update are effective for public companies for annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805); Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The amendments in this update clarify the definition of a business to help companies evaluate whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses. The amendments in this update are effective for public companies for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. We are evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
In July 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). The amendments in Part I of this Update change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments.
 
As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option) no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value as a result of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments, the amendments require entities that present earnings per share (EPS) in accordance with Topic 260 to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS. Convertible instruments with embedded conversion options that have down round features are now subject to the specialized guidance for contingent beneficial conversion features (in Subtopic 470-20, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options), including related EPS guidance (in Topic 260). The amendments in Part II of this Update recharacterize the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of Topic 480 that now are presented as pending content in the Codification, to a scope exception.
 
Those amendments do not have an accounting effect. For public business entities, the amendments in Part I of this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The Company is currently reviewing the impact of adoption of ASU 2017-11on its financial statements.
 
In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-01, which amends the guidance in U.S. GAAP on the classification and measurement of financial instruments. Changes to the current guidance primarily affect the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, the ASU clarifies guidance related to the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and upon adoption, an entity should apply the amendments by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet at the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. Early adoption is not permitted except for the provision to record fair value changes for financial liabilities under the fair value option resulting from instrument-specific credit risk in other comprehensive income. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.
 
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 affects any entity that enters into a lease, with some specified scope exemptions. The guidance in this Update supersedes Topic 840, Leases. The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For public companies, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2016-02 on our financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) that clarifies how to apply revenue recognition guidance related to whether an entity is a principal or an agent. ASU 2016-08 clarifies that the analysis must focus on whether the entity has control of the goods or services before they are transferred to the customer and provides additional guidance about how to apply the control principle when services are provided and when goods or services are combined with other goods or services. The effective date for ASU 2016-08 is the same as the effective date of ASU 2014-09 as amended by ASU 2015-14, for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years. The Company has not yet determined the impact of ASU 2016-08 on its financial statements.
 
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation, or ASU No. 2016-09. The areas for simplification in this Update involve several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. For public entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. Amendments related to the timing of when excess tax benefits are recognized, minimum statutory withholding requirements, forfeitures, and intrinsic value should be applied using a modified retrospective transition method by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity as of the beginning of the period in which the guidance is adopted. Amendments related to the presentation of employee taxes paid on the statement of cash flows when an employer withholds shares to meet the minimum statutory withholding requirement should be applied retrospectively. Amendments requiring recognition of excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies in the income statement and the practical expedient for estimating expected term should be applied prospectively. An entity may elect to apply the amendments related to the presentation of excess tax benefits on the statement of cash flows using either a prospective transition method or a retrospective transition method. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2016-09 on our financial statements.
 
In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which provides further guidance on identifying performance obligations and improves the operability and understandability of licensing implementation guidance. The effective date for ASU 2016-10 is the same as the effective date of ASU 2014-09 as amended by ASU 2015-14, for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years.  In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) - Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients,” which amends the guidance on transition, collectability, non-cash consideration, and the presentation of sales and other similar taxes. ASU 2016-12 clarifies that, for a contract to be considered completed at transition, all (or substantially all) of the revenue must have been recognized under legacy GAAP. In addition, ASU 2016-12 clarifies how an entity should evaluate the collectability threshold and when an entity can recognize nonrefundable consideration received as revenue if an arrangement does not meet the standard’s contract criteria. The standard allows for both retrospective and modified retrospective methods of adoption. The Company has not yet determined the impact of ASU 2016-10 on its financial statements.
 
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, "Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Statements," which requires companies to measure credit losses utilizing a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2019 (fiscal year 2021 for the Company). The Company has not yet determined the potential effects of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on its Financial Statements.
 
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, "Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments," which aims to eliminate diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows under Topic 230, Statement of Cash Flows, and other Topics. ASU 2016-15 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2017 (fiscal year 2019 for the Company). The Company has not yet determined the potential effects of the adoption of ASU 2016-15 on its Financial Statements.
 
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, ("ASU 2016-18") Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash. This ASU is intended to provide guidance on the presentation of restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents and reduce the diversity in practice. This ASU requires amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents to be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts on the statement of cash flows. We elected as permitted by the standard, to early adopt ASU 2016-18 retrospectively as of January 1, 2017 and have applied to all periods presented herein. The adoption of ASU 2016-18 did not have a material impact to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The effect of the adoption of ASU 2016-18 on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows was to include restricted cash balances in the beginning and end of period balances of cash and cash equivalent and restricted cash. The change in restricted cash was previously disclosed in operating activities and financing activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
 
All other newly issued accounting pronouncements but not yet effective have been deemed either immaterial or not applicable 
 
The 2016 financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2017 presentation.

(L) Equipment
 
The Company values property and equipment at cost and depreciates these assets using the straight-line method over their expected useful life. The Company uses a five year life for automobiles.
 
In accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, the Company carries long-lived assets at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value. Impairment is evaluated by estimating future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flow is less than the carrying amount of the assets, an impairment loss is recognized. Fair value, for purposes of calculating impairment, is measured based on estimated future cash flows, discounted at a market rate of interest.
 
There were no impairment losses recorded for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.
  
(M) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
We hold certain financial assets, which are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“ASC Topic 820-10”).   ASC Topic 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).  ASC Topic 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Level 1 instruments include cash, account receivable, prepaid expenses, inventory and account payable and accrued liabilities. The carrying values are assumed to approximate the fair value due to the short term nature of the instrument.
 
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 820-10 are described below:
 
  ° 
Level 1 - Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access.  We believe our carrying value of level 1 instruments approximate their fair value at December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016.
  ° 
Level 2 - Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
 
  ° 
Level 3 - Valuations based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. We consider depleting assets, asset retirement obligations and net profit interest liability to be Level 3. We determine the fair value of Level 3 assets and liabilities utilizing various inputs, including NYMEX price quotations and contract terms.

 (N) Revenue Recognition
 
The Company’s revenues are generated primarily from contracts with the U.S. Government. The Company performs work under the cost-plus-fixed-fee contract.  Under the base phase of this contract the Company has produced recombinant spider silk for weaving into ballistic shootpacks.  These shootpack are currently being woven and have not been delivered to the U.S. Government customer.  The Company is also currently working on the awarded option extension to develop new recombinant silks.
 
Cost-plus-fixed-fee contracts—Revenue is recognized on cost-plus-fixed-fee contracts with the U.S. Government on the basis of partial performance equal to costs incurred plus an estimate of applicable fees earned as the Company becomes contractually entitled to reimbursement of costs and the applicable fees.  Invoicing for costs and applicable fees are reported to the U.S. Government on a monthly basis and invoices are typically paid within 30 days.
 
For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized $97,318 and $31,858 respectively in revenue from the Government contract. These revenues were generated for work performed in the development and production of the Company’s recombinant silks under the base and option period phases of our ongoing contract with the US Army.
 
On July 24, 2017, the Company signed a contract option extension with the US Army to research and deliver recombinant spider silk fibers and threads. This contract option increased the total contract award by an additional $921,130 to a total of $1,021,092 and added 12 months to the contract duration.

NOTE 2   GOING CONCERN
 
As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $3,441,818 and stockholders’ deficiency of $3,375,806 and used $729,542 of cash in operations for year ended December 31, 2017.  This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
 
Management believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) (the Company’s principal financial and accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective as of the end of the period covered by this Report, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company 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, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
 
Our Chief Executive Officer, as the principal executive officer (chief executive officer) and principal financial officer (chief financial officer), is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
Because of its inherent limitations, our internal controls and procedures may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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. 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, have been detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.
 
Our management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017. The framework used by management in making that assessment was the criteria set forth in the document entitled “ Internal Control – Integrated Framework” (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that assessment, our management has determined that as of December 31, 2017, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective for the purposes for which it is intended based on the following material weaknesses:
 
 –
Lack of internal audit function. During 2017, the Company, upon review of the independent auditors, made some adjustments to its financial statements, including, adjusting salary amounts and the related tax accruals, correcting warrant expense for a warrant issued to a related party, and adding the liability due to our attorney that should have been recorded.  Management believes that the foregoing is due to the fact that the Company lacks qualified resources to perform the internal audit functions properly and that the scope and effectiveness of the internal audit function are yet to be developed. Specifically, the reporting mechanism between the accounting department and the Board of Directors and the CEO was not effective, therefore resulting in the delay of recording and reporting.
 
 
 –
No Segregation of Duties Ineffective controls over financial reporting: As of December 31, 2017, we had no full-time employees with the requisite expertise in the key functional areas of finance and accounting. As a result, there is a lack of proper segregation of duties necessary to insure that all transactions are accounted for accurately and in a timely manner.
 
 
 –
Lack of a functioning audit committee: Due to a lack of a majority of independent members and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, and no audit committee has been elected, the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures is inadequate.
 
 
 –
Written Policies & Procedures: Due to lack of written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting, the Company did not establish a formal process to close our books monthly and account for all transactions.
 
   
 
  Lack of controls over related party transactions:  As of December 31, 2017, the Company did not establish a formal written policy for the approval, identification and authorization of related party transactions.
 
We are developing a plan to ensure that all information will be recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately, and as of the date of this report, we have hired a payroll service firm to manage all payroll functions including tax withholdings. We will take the following steps to address the above-referenced material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting:
 
1.
We will continue to educate our management personnel to increase its ability to comply with the disclosure requirements and financial reporting controls; and
2.
We will increase management oversight of accounting and reporting functions in the future; and
3.
As soon as we can raise sufficient capital or our operations generate sufficient cash flow, we will hire personnel to handle our accounting and reporting functions.
 
35
 
  
While the first two steps of our remediation process are ongoing, we do not expect to remediate the weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting until the time when we start to commercialize a recombinant fiber (and, therefore, may have sufficient cash flow for hiring personnel to handle our accounting and reporting functions).
 
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm because as a smaller reporting company we are not subject to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
 
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
No change in our system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Mr. Thompson was a founder of the California law firm of Ching & Thompson which was founded in 1997 where he focused primarily on commercial litigation.

He is the named inventor or co-inventor on a number of provisional patent applications including inventions relating to biotechnology and mechanics.

entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the audit committee, provided the policies and procedures are detailed as to the particular service, the audit committee is informed of each service, and such policies and procedures do not include delegation of the audit committee's responsibilities to management.
 
We do not have an audit committee. Our entire board of directors pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors.
