Item 1. Business.

 

Our Corporate History

 

We were incorporated in the State of Colorado on July 29, 1988 under the name Cine-Source Entertainment, Inc. On April 27, 2004, the Company changed its name to First Quantum Ventures, Inc. On April 13, 2006, the Company changed its name to First Quantum Ventures, Inc., and on May 5, 2006, the Company reincorporated in Nevada. On March 15, 2012, the Company changed its name to DiMi Telematics International, Inc.

 

In early 2017, our management team elected to suspend further investment and working capital on developing its then-existing technology and business prospects, turning its attention to the hemp-derived cannabidiol, or CBD, market. On March 10, 2017, the Company changed its name to Bespoke Extracts, Inc. to align the Company’s corporate identity with its new business plan. 

 

The Company is now focused on selling its proprietary line of specially-formulated, premium quality, hemp-derived CBD products direct to consumers through our ecommerce store, found at www.bespokeextracts.com. Information on our website is not part of this report.

 

We introduced our original line of CBD products in 2018; however, in the fall of 2020, we unveiled a new brand image, new website and ecommerce store and a new line-up of seven hemp-derived CBD formulations available for purchase in the form of tinctures and softgels. We intend to methodically expand our product offerings to include new flavors, including manuka honey; and introduce additional form factors for our CBD formulations, including lotions and balms, depending on customer feedback and evolving consumer demand.

 The Hemp-Derived CBD Market

 

 Recreational smoking of marijuana had come to the attention of the U.S. Federal Bureau of Narcotics and President Franklin D. Roosevelt and, despite opposition from the American Medical Association, the Marihuana Tax Act of 1937 was passed and an 80-year moratorium on hemp production began. Thirty-three years later when the Controlled Substances Act of 1970 was signed into law, marijuana was further constrained by being classified as a Schedule I narcotic and regulatory restrictions on hemp grew even more rigid.

 

Hope for revitalizing the hemp industry was ignited in 2014 when President Barack Obama signed the 2014 Farm Bill, which essentially allowed for hemp to be grown by permitted universities and state departments of agriculture in the name of federally funded research – rather than as a commercial crop. Thereafter, pro-hemp legislation received increasingly favorable bipartisan support, culminating in December 2018 with the passage of the 2018 Farm Bill, which removed industrial hemp from its listing as a Schedule I drug and recognizes hemp as an agricultural commodity, such as corn, wheat or soybeans. Consequently, demand for hemp-derived CBD products exploded, and the industry was unleashed, albeit with the government asserting certain oversight and compliance controls. Specifically, the production of hemp-derived CBD must adhere to certain regulatory mandates relating to the hemp grown to produce it, including:

 

The hemp must contain less than 0.3% THC

 

The hemp must adhere to the shared state-federal regulations; and

 

The hemp must be grown by a properly licensed grower.

 

In addition, the 2018 Farm Bill also lifted restrictions on the sale, transportation and possession of hemp-derived CBD products and allows for the transportation of hemp-derived CBD products across state lines, as long as the products comply with the aforementioned mandates.

 

According to a market study published by Grand View Research in August 2020, the global CBD oil and CBD consumer health market size was valued at $20.3 billion in 2019 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 25.6% from 2020 to 2027. Researchers noted that “cannabidiol-based products are gaining acceptance and recognition in the health and wellness sector owing to the confirmation of therapeutic properties of cannabidiol through various scientific studies.”

 

Cannabidiol, or CBD, is one of 140 identified cannabinoids, or plant compounds, found in cannabis species, namely Cannabis sativa (hemp plant) and Cannabis indica (marijuana plant). THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, is also a natural occurring cannabinoid in these plants.

 

Numerous medical studies have found that cannabinoids, including CBD and THC, provide a wealth of health and wellness benefits through their interaction with the human endocannabinoid system (ECS), a complex network of cell receptors and neurotransmitters that help maintain the body’s homeostasis. According to one study, “modulating the ECS activity may have therapeutic potential in almost all diseases affecting humans, including obesity/metabolic syndrome, diabetes and diabetic complications, neuro-degenerative inflammatory, cardiovascular, liver, gastrointestinal, skin diseases, pain, psychiatric disorders, cachexia, cancer, chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, among many others.” (Source: Pál Pacher and George Kunos, “Modulating the Endocannabinoid System in Human Health and Disease--Successes and Failures,” The FEBS Journal (U.S. National Library of Medicine, May 2013), https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3684164/.)

 

However, unlike CBD-based products which are non-psychoactive, have little to no side effects and are believed to offer tangible therapeutic benefits to its users, THC-based products used for recreational or medical purposes may induce psychotropic or euphoric effects on a user and have potentially serious side effects, such as extreme anxiety and paranoia. Another important distinction between the two is the fact that THC products can only be purchased in U.S. states which have legalized medical or recreational marijuana use, whereas authentic, hemp-derived CBD products may be legally purchased nationwide. In fact, today CBD products are being sold directly to consumers online by manufacturers and resellers and in many major and specialty retail stores, including GNC, Walgreens, The Vitamin Shoppe, CVS, pet stores, beauty salons and even local convenience stores and gas stations.

Product Line

 

Generally speaking, our management believes most CBD products for oral consumption available on the market have an earthy, bitter taste that some observers suggest is reminiscent of chlorophyll. The centerpiece of our retail product line is our flavor-infused tinctures, formulated using only premium, organic ingredients. In addition, we will also market CBD extract in capsule form, topicals, and gummies. We intend to expand our proprietary CBD products to include a broader range of flavors and form factors. Our rebrand debut showcased the following flagship products:

 

Bespoke 3C (Cool, Calm, Collected) CBD + CBG Tincture: 1200mg & 2000mg, berry and mint flavored, of all-natural, pure hemp-derived CBD + CBG extract tailored for women – available in a 30ml tincture;

     

Bespoke Recovery W CBD + CBG Tincture: 2000mg, citrus flavored, of all-natural, pure hemp-derived CBD + CBG extract tailored for women – available in a 30ml tincture;

     

Bespoke Recovery S CBD + CBG Tincture: 2000mg, citrus flavored, of all-natural, pure hemp-derived CBD + CBG extract made for sports – available in a 30ml tincture;

     

Bespoke Comfort CBD + CBN Tincture: 2000mg, natural flavor, of all-natural, pure hemp-derived CBD + CBN extract tailored for women – available in a 30ml tincture.

 

Bespoke Active CBD + CBG Tincture: 1200mg, natural flavor, of all natural, pure hemp-derived CBD + CBG extract made for sports - available in a 30ml tincture; and

 

Bespoke Serenity CBD Liquid Gels: 50mg/capsule, pure full spectrum CBD with a variety of beneficial ingredients such as Vitamin D, Levodopa, Evening Primrose Oil, Black Cohosh Extract, and more.

 

Supply, Manufacturing and Logistics

 

Our management believes that some companies operating in the CBD oil industry tend to emphasize sales and quantity over quality and safety. Over the past several years, the U.S. Federal Drug Administration (“FDA”) has issued several warning letters to firms that market unapproved new drugs that allegedly contain CBD. As part of these actions, the FDA has tested the chemical content of cannabinoid compounds in some of the products, and many were found to not contain the levels of CBD they claimed to contain – several were found to have no CBD.

 

All of our flavor-infused tinctures and gel caps are formulated using pure, all natural, phytocannabinoid-rich (“PCR”) hemp-derived CBD sourced from one of the largest, fully and vertically integrated producers of PCR hemp oil. All our products are authenticated by an independent third party via issuance of a Certificate of Analysis (“COA”), for cannabinoid content and profile, microbiological content, heavy metal content, pesticide content, and residual solvent content. We recognize the importance of compliance and have partnered with one of the industry’s leading current good manufacturing practices, or CGMP certified extraction facilities. This ensures the consistency and quality of our product line and brand.

Through its proprietary engineering process, our American-based supplier isolates and removes any unwanted compounds – while creating the maximum potency level of phytocannabinoids and terpenes – cold, enclosed and continuous manufacturing processes prevents the degradation of natural molecules during extraction and purification. Made and derived from non-GMO, USA-grown hemp, our PCR hemp oil and isolate powder are subjected to a rigorous testing system – both in-house and verified through independent, third party labs – which ensures accurate levels of phytocannabinoids and confirms the levels of THC. Our products contain only the highest level of naturally derived CBD, more than 99.5% pure, and never contain more than 0.3% THC.

 

We believe that a key differentiator of our finished products is the superb quality of ingredients we source from the industry’s leading suppliers, each of whom we have carefully vetted and qualified.

 

For instance, raw Mānuka honey used in our products is imported directly from the north island of New Zealand from a supplier which has been supplying quality bee products since 1974. Mānuka honey is believed to be one of the most beneficial forms of honey in the world. Produced by bees that pollinate the native Manuka bush, possible Mānuka honey uses range from healing sore throats and digestive illnesses to curing Staph infections and gingivitis. All other flavorings infused in our products are also sourced from reputable suppliers.

 

Fulfillment of orders from our online customers is managed by a well-established third-party logistics partner.

 

Sales and Marketing

 

We currently sell our products through our website.

 

We believe that the traditional retail environment is currently experiencing notable economic instability due largely to the global shift in consumer purchasing behaviors – with online shopping/ecommerce sites overtaking brick-and-mortar stores as consumer preferred shopping venues. In view of this retailing reality, we have adopted a Direct-to-Consumer sales model that is anchored by an ecommerce website whereby we educate, sell and ship our CBD products directly to consumers. In addition, we also plan to market our CBD products on a wholesale basis to select specialty retailers, dispensaries and physicians.

 

Our marketing initiatives include the use of social marketing, social influence marketing, direct response marketing, inbound marketing, email marketing, Search Engine Optimization (“SEO”) and content marketing, among other proven strategies to generate and convert sales prospects into loyal, satisfied customers. We will also explore utilizing coupon and deal sites to drive traffic to our website and retailers, as well as participate in select industry conferences to promote our brand and build greater awareness of our products among prospective business partners and consumers.

  

The Difference Between Hemp and Marijuana

 

Both marijuana and hemp come from the same species of plant called “Cannabis Sativa L.” However, cultivators of the cannabis plant have manipulated it over the years to encourage specific traits to become dominant. Cannabis plants contain unique compounds called cannabinoids. Current research has revealed over 80 different cannabinoids thus far, but management believes THC is the most well-known and is credited with causing the marijuana high. While marijuana plants contain high levels of THC, hemp contains very little of the psychoactive chemical. The foregoing is one of the differences which distinguishes hemp from marijuana.

Hemp was originally cultivated nearly 10,000 years ago in what is modern day Taiwan. Ancient cultivators of the cannabis plant recognized that it was dioecious, meaning that it had dual characteristics. Cultivators grew one variety of the cannabis plant to be tall and durable. This became what we now call industrial hemp. Upon discovering that the flower buds of the cannabis plant had psychoactive effects, cultivators began separating the hemp plants from the flowering plants in order to isolate their “medicinal” characteristics.

 

Scientifically, we now know that industrial hemp plants tend to produce high levels of the cannabinoid CBD, while producing low amounts of THC. Conversely, the marijuana plant produces high THC levels and low CBD levels. This chemical difference dictates the way we use the cannabis plant for medicinal and dietary supplemental purposes.

 

Federal Legislative Overview

 

Cannabidiol, or CBD, that is derived from industrial hemp plants — like the CBD used in all products currently being produced or to be produced by Bespoke Extracts — is deemed by the FDA to be a dietary supplement, not a medication. Consequently, in the U.S., no prescription is required to obtain CBD and it can be legally purchased and consumed in all 50 states (and in 40 countries around the world).

 

In December 2018 with the passing of the 2018 Farm Bill, industrial hemp is now recognized as an agricultural commodity, such as corn, wheat or soybeans. Historically, hemp was an underpinning of American agriculture from the 17th century through the early 1900’s. This recent change in modern policy is expected to restore the legacy of American hemp production as a prolific and highly sustainable crop staple.

 

Research published in 2019 by consumer data firm MRI-Simmons estimated that 3.7 million U.S. adults were CBD consumers, and roughly 64 million Americans – or 26% of the nation – have reported trying CBD in the last two years. (Source:https://www.marketwatch.com/story/64-million-americans-have-tried-cbd-and-now-the-fda-says-it-could-cause-liver-damage-2019-11-27.) Due to this escalating demand from consumers for CBD as a natural remedy for a myriad of health conditions affecting adults, children and pets, CBD has grown into a multi-billion dollar industry over a few short years; growing from a $550,000 market in 2014 to $7.1 billion in 2019 and is further expected to climb to $9.3 billion by the end of 2020. (Source: Grand View Research, https://www.grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/cannabidiol-cbd-market.))

 

Competitive Overview

 

Given the rapid growth of the U.S. CBD oil industry, hundreds of companies have entered the market. Consequently, the market is becoming highly competitive and we believe to compete in the market requires ensuring the quality and integrity of product offerings. Certain of our competitors have substantially greater financial, distribution, and marketing resources, as well as greater brand awareness than us, and there can be no assurance we will be able to successfully compete.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

An investment in the Company’s common stock involves a high degree of risk. In determining whether to purchase the Company’s common stock, an investor should carefully consider all of the material risks described below, together with the other information contained in this report before making a decision to purchase the Company’s securities. An investor should only consider purchasing the Company’s securities if he or she can afford to suffer the loss of his or her entire investment.

 

Risk Related to our Business

 

We have a history of operating losses, have a working capital deficit as of November 30, 2020, and we may not achieve or maintain profitability in the future.

 

As of August 31, 2020, we have an accumulated deficit of $18,776,689 a stockholders’ deficit of $513,665, and a working capital deficit of $547,406. We incurred a net loss of $4,640,806 for the year ended August 31, 2020. We may never achieve profitability or generate significant revenues.

 

We will need to raise additional capital, which may not be available.

 

We anticipate that we will need to raise additional capital to execute our business plan and maintain and expand our operations. Additional capital may not be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital, our business may be harmed and we may need to curtail or cease operations.

  

We have a limited operating history that impedes our ability to evaluate our potential future performance and strategy.

 

We began sales of our products in mid-2018. Our limited operating history makes it difficult for us to evaluate our future business prospects and make decisions based on estimates of our future performance. To address these risks and uncertainties, we must do the following:

 

Successfully execute our business strategy to establish the “Bespoke Extracts” brand and reputation as a well-managed enterprise committed to delivering premium quality and cost-effective CBD products;

     

Respond to competitive developments;

     

Execute value-focused pricing strategies that position our tinctures and gelcaps as premium, great tasting, all-natural CBD products offered at a competitive price;

     

Effectively and efficiently market and sell our line of CBD products through the development of distribution strategies; and

     

Attract, integrate, retain and motivate qualified personnel.

 

Our business strategy may not be successful and we may not successfully address these risks. In the event that we do not successfully address these risks, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

 

6

 

 

Our operating results may fluctuate significantly based on customer acceptance of our products. As a result our period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations are unlikely to provide a good indication of our future performance.

 

Management expects that we will experience substantial variations in our net sales and operating results from quarter to quarter due to customer acceptance of our products. If customers do not accept our products, our sales and revenue will either fail to materialize or decline, resulting in a reduction in our operating income or possible increase in losses.

 

If we do not successfully develop and commercialize additional products, we could lose revenue opportunities.

 

Our future success will depend, in part, on our ability to expand our product offerings. To that end we have engaged in the process of identifying new product opportunities. The processes of identifying and commercializing new products is complex and uncertain, and if we fail to accurately predict customers’ changing needs and preferences, our business could be harmed. We have already and may have to continue to commit significant resources to commercializing new products before knowing whether our investments will result in products the market will accept. Furthermore, we may not execute successfully on commercializing those products because of errors in product planning or timing, technical hurdles that we fail to overcome in a timely fashion, or a lack of appropriate resources. This could result in competitors providing those solutions before we do and a reduction in net sales and earnings.  

 

The success of new products will depend on several factors, including proper new product definition, timely completion, and introduction of these products, differentiation of new products from those of our competitors, and market acceptance of these products. There can be no assurance that we will successfully identify additional new product opportunities, develop and bring new products to market in a timely manner, or achieve market acceptance of our products or that products developed by others will not render our products obsolete or noncompetitive.

 

We may have difficulties managing our Company’s growth, which could lead to higher operating losses, or we may not grow at all.

 

If we succeed in growing our business, such growth could strain our human and capital resources, potentially leading to higher operating losses. Our ability to manage operations and control growth will be dependent upon our ability to raise and spend capital to successfully attract, train, motivate, retain and manage new employees and continue to update and improve our management and operational systems, infrastructure and other resources, financial and management controls, and reporting systems and procedures. Should we be unsuccessful in accomplishing any of these essential aspects of our growth in an efficient and timely manner, then management may receive inadequate information necessary to manage our operations, possibly causing additional expenditures and inefficient use of existing human and capital resources or we otherwise may be forced to grow at a slower pace that could slow or eliminate our ability to achieve and sustain profitability. Such slower than expected growth may require us to restrict or cease our operations and go out of business.

 

Loss of our chief executive officer could limit our growth and negatively impact our operations.

 

We depend upon our president and chief executive officer, Danil Pollack, to a substantial extent. The loss of Mr. Pollack could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

 

We will be required to attract and retain top quality talent to compete in the marketplace.

 

We believe our future growth and success will depend in part on our ability to attract and retain highly skilled managerial, product development, sales and marketing, and finance personnel. We may not succeed in attracting and retaining such personnel. Shortages in qualified personnel could limit our ability to increase sales of existing products and services and launch new product and service offerings.

 

7

 

 

Our inability to effectively protect our intellectual property would adversely affect our ability to compete effectively, our revenue, our financial condition, and our results of operations.

 

We may be unable to obtain intellectual property rights to effectively protect our branding, products, and other intangible assets. Our ability to compete effectively may be affected by the nature and breadth of our intellectual property rights. While we intend to defend against any threats to our intellectual property rights, there can be no assurance that any such actions will adequately protect our interests. If we are unable to secure intellectual property rights to effectively protect our branding, products, and other intangible assets, our revenue and earnings, financial condition, or results of operations could be adversely affected.

  

Our industry is highly competitive, and we have less capital and resources than many of our competitors, which may give them an advantage in developing and marketing products similar to ours or make our products obsolete.

 

We are involved in a highly competitive industry where we compete with various other nutraceutical companies which offer products similar to the products we sell. These competitors may have far greater resources than we do, giving our competitors an advantage in developing and marketing products similar to ours or products that make our products obsolete. While we believe we are better equipped to customize products for the cannabis market and advise growers on appropriate products to maximize crop yield as compared to traditional nutraceuticals, there can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully compete against these other manufacturers.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic may negatively affect our business.

 

The COVID-19 pandemic is having widespread, rapidly evolving, and unpredictable impacts on global society, economies, financial markets, and business practices. The continuing impacts of COVID-19 are highly unpredictable and could be significant, and may have an adverse effect on our business, operations and our future financial performance, including by causing delays and constraints in manufacturing and shipping of our products.

 

Risks Related to our Common Stock

 

There is a limited trading market for our common stock, and investors may find it difficult to buy and sell our shares.

 

Our common stock is not listed on any national securities exchange. Accordingly, investors may find it more difficult to buy and sell our shares than if our common stock was traded on an exchange. Although our common stock is quoted on the OTC Pink, it is an unorganized, inter-dealer, over-the-counter market which provides significantly less liquidity than the Nasdaq Capital Market or other national securities exchange. Further, prior to July 2018 there was minimal reported trading in our common stock, and any significant trading volume in our common stock may not be sustained. These factors may have an adverse impact on the trading and price of our common stock.

 

Our issuance of common stock upon conversion of outstanding convertible debentures may depress the price of our common stock.

 

We have outstanding convertible debentures in the aggregate outstanding principal amount of $500,000, which are convertible into common stock at a conversion price of $0.001 per share, or a conversion price of $0.0004 following an event of default on the debentures. Our issuance of shares of common stock upon conversion of outstanding convertible debentures could result in substantial dilution to our stockholders, which may have a negative effect on the price of our common stock.

 

8

 

 

The market price of our common stock is, and is likely to continue to be, highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations.

 

The market price of our common stock is highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to a number of factors that are beyond our control, including:

 

variations in our quarterly operating results;

 

announcements that our revenue or income are below analysts’ expectations;

 

general economic slowdowns;

 

sales of large blocks of our common stock; and

 

announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments.

  

Our common stock is considered a “penny stock” and is subject to additional sale and trading regulations that may make it more difficult to buy or sell.

 

Our common stock is considered a “penny stock” and securities broker-dealers participating in sales of our common stock are subject to the “penny stock” regulations set forth in Rules 15g-2 through 15g-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act. Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.

 

We do not intend to pay dividends on our common stock for the foreseeable future.

 

We have paid no dividends on our common stock to date and we do not anticipate paying any dividends to holders of our common stock in the foreseeable future. While our future dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, we currently anticipate that we will retain any earnings to finance our future expansion and for the implementation of our business plan. A lack of a dividend can further affect the market value of our common stock and could significantly affect the value of any investment in the Company.

    

Our chief executive officer owns the majority of the voting power of our shareholders.
 

As the holder of our outstanding share of Series C Preferred Stock, our chief executive officer, Danil Pollack, has 51% of the voting power of the Company’s shareholders.  As a result, Ms. Pollack has the ability to control all matters submitted to shareholders, and his interests may differ from those of other shareholders.

 

Additional stock offerings in the future may dilute then-existing shareholders’ percentage ownership of the Company.

 

Given our plans and expectations that we will need additional capital and personnel, we anticipate that will need to issue additional shares of common stock or securities convertible or exercisable for shares of common stock, which may include including convertible notes, preferred stock, stock options or warrants. The issuance of additional securities in the future will dilute the percentage ownership of then-current stockholders.

The rights of the holders of common stock may be impaired by the potential issuance of preferred stock.

 

Our board of directors has the right, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with voting, dividend, conversion, liquidation or other rights which could adversely affect the voting power and equity interest of the holders of common stock, which could be issued with the right to more than one vote per share, and could be utilized as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change of control. The possible negative impact on takeover attempts could adversely affect the price of our common stock.

 

Failure to achieve and maintain internal controls in accordance with Sections 302 and 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 could have a material adverse effect on our business and stock price.

 

Our management has determined that we do not have effective disclosure controls and procedures, or internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2020. Effective internal controls are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and are important in the prevention of financial fraud. If we cannot produce reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and there could be a material adverse effect on our stock price.

Overview

 

The Company sells a proprietary line of specially-formulated, premium quality, hemp-derived CBD products direct to consumers through our ecommerce store, found at www.bespokeextracts.com. Bespoke Extracts’ original line of CBD products were introduced to market in 2018; however, in the fall of 2020, we unveiled a new brand image, new website and ecommerce store and a new line-up of seven new hemp-derived CBD formulations available for purchase in the form of tinctures and softgels.

 

We plan to methodically expand our product offerings to include new flavors, including manuka honey; and introduce additional form factors for our CBD formulations, including, lotions and balms, depending on customer feedback and evolving consumer demand.

 

Results of Operations for the years ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019

  

Sales

 

Sales during the year ended August 31, 2020 were $8,054 compared to $62,103 for the year ended August 31, 2019. The reduction in sales was primarily a result of decreased marketing of the Company’s products.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the years ended August 31, 2020 and 2019 were $3,647,610 and $(3,510,759), respectively. Option and warrant expense for the years ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019 was $3,467,440 and $(1,403,625), respectively which was primarily due to the fair value re-measurement of warrants and options, and the issuance of options to our new President and CEO. Stock-based compensation for the year ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019 was $40,500 and $181,950, respectively which was a result of common stock issued for services. The Company recorded a gain of $(2,440,768) which was a result of a reduction in expense from forfeited common shares during the year ended August 31, 2019. Professional fees were $185,603 and $200,720, respectively for the years ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019. The decrease in expenses was due to reduced legal and accounting fees as the Company streamlined operations. Consulting expense was $184,062 and $283,150 respectively for the years ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to final payment of fees for branding and marketing services performed by consultants during the year ended August 31, 2020 which were expensed throughout the year ended August 31, 2019. Amortization expense and impairment of domain names for the years ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019 was $2,797 and $3,345, respectively which was a result of amortization of domain names.

  

Financing Common Share Expense

 

Pursuant to a securities purchase agreement entered into on June 6, 2018, the Company was obligated to issue additional shares of common stock if the Company sold common stock at a price lower than $0.10 per share (or common stock equivalents with an exercise price less than $0.10 per share) during the six-month period following the closing of the purchase agreement, in which event the Company was required to issue additional shares to the purchaser for no additional consideration, such that the total number of common stock received by the purchaser would be equal to $50,000 divided by the lower financing price. During the year ended August 31, 2019, the Company was obligated to issue 500,000 shares of common stock valued at $76,000, and recorded the amount as financing common share expense as compared to none in the comparable period in 2020.

Loss on settlement of debt

 

On December 24, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement (the “Repayment Agreement”) with the holder of the amended and restated original issue discount convertible debenture issued by the Company on November 11, 2019, in the original principal amount of $200,000 (the “November 2019 Debenture”). Pursuant to the Repayment Agreement, the Company paid the holder $120,000, and transferred certain URLs valued at $5,282 to the holder, and the November 2019 Debenture was deemed paid in full. The amortization of debt discount of $35,687 was recorded during the year ended August 31, 2020. The Company recognized a loss on settlement of debt of $89,595 during the year ended August 31, 2020.

 

Interest Expense and Amortization of Debt Discount

 

Interest expense and amortization of debt discount on promissory notes for the years ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019 was $535,688 and $357,473, respectively. The increase was due to the amortization expense for the warrants and beneficial conversion associated with notes issued during the year ended August 31, 2020.

 

Net Income / (Loss)

 

For the reasons stated above, our net loss for the year ended August 31, 2020 was ($4,640,806), or ($0.04) per share, compared to a net income for the year ended August 31, 2019 of $2,580,761, or $0.04 per share. 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of August 31, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents of $126,603. Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended August 31, 2020 was $465,240. Our current liabilities as of August 31, 2020 were $679,913 and consisted of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $59,913, notes payable related party $120,000 and a convertible note payable of $500,000. As of August 31, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents of $10,343. Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended August 31, 2019 was $492,691.

   

During the year ended August 31, 2020, the Company raised $125,250 from the sale of common stock compared to $421,250 for the year ended August 31, 2019. During the year ended August 31, 2020, the Company received a total of $400,000, net of original issue discounts from sale of a convertible note and repaid $120,000 as compared to none during the year ending August 31, 2019. During the year ended August 31, 2020, the Company repurchased $27,500 of common stock. During the year ended August 31, 2020 the Company received $84,000 from the exercise of options compared to $2,000 from the exercise of options for the year ended August 31, 2019.

 

The financial statements included in this report have been prepared assuming a continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company had negative cash flows from operations for the year ended August 31, 2020 and had a working capital deficit at August 31, 2020. This raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

We have not generated positive cash flows from operating activities. Our primary source of capital has been from the sale of equity securities. Our primary use of capital has been for professional fees and general and administrative costs. We have no committed sources of capital and will need to raise additional capital to continue and expand our operations. Additional capital may not be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all.

 

In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic may negatively affect our operations, including by limiting access to our facilities, customers, management, and professional advisors, and by causing delays and constraints in manufacturing and shipping of our products. These factors, in turn, may negatively impact our operations, financial condition and demand for our products, and our ability to raise capital on acceptable terms, or at all.

  

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no significant 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.

 

Critical accounting policies and estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. The more critical accounting estimates include estimates related to revenue recognition and accounts receivable allowances. We also have other key accounting policies, which involve the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that are significant to understanding our results, which are described in Note 1 to our financial statements appearing elsewhere in this report.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders’ of:

Bespoke Extracts, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Bespoke Extracts, Inc. (the “Company”) as of August 31, 2020 and 2019, the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2020, 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 August 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended August 31, 2020 and 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Explanatory Paragraph – Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, The Company has negative cash flows from operations, a working capital deficit and an accumulated deficit. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

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 controls 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 financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Bespoke Extracts, Inc.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

August 31, 2020 and 2019

 

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS, SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND GOING CONCERN

 

Nature of Business Operations

 

Bespoke Extracts, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Nevada corporation focused on selling its proprietary line of specially-formulated, premium quality, hemp-derived CBD products.

 

The Company introduced its original line of CBD products in 2018; however, in the fall of 2020, we unveiled a new brand image, new website and ecommerce store and a new line-up of seven hemp-derived CBD formulations available for purchase in the form of tinctures and softgels.

  

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming a continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company had negative cash flows from operations, a working capital deficit and an accumulated deficit as of and for the year ended August 31, 2020. This raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repaying its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. There is no assurance that this series of events will be satisfactorily completed.

 

Further, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. If additional financing is not available or is not available on acceptable terms, we will have to curtail or cease our operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might arise from this uncertainty.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates include the assumption used in the valuation of equity-based transactions, valuation of intangible assets, allowance for doubtful accounts and inventory valuation and reserves. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. At August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, the Company did not have any cash equivalents.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, note payable and convertible note payable approximate their fair values as of August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, respectively, because of their short-term natures and the Company’s borrowing rate of interest.

 

F-6

 

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable are recorded at fair value on the date revenue is recognized. The Company provides allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to repay their obligation. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to repay, additional allowances may be required. The Company provides for potential uncollectible accounts receivable based on specific customer identification and historical collection experience adjusted for existing market conditions. If market conditions decline, actual collection experience may not meet expectations and may result in decreased cash flows and increased bad debt expense.

 

The policy for determining past due status is based on the contractual payment terms of each customer, which are generally net 30 or net 60 days. Once collection efforts by the Company and its collection agency are exhausted, the determination for charging off uncollectible receivables is made. At August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019 the Company has recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $2,981 and $0, respectively. Included in the accounts receivable is the merchant holdback receivable balance of $3,585 which will be remitted to the Company in the future.

 

Inventory

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out basis and net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as sales price less cost of completion, disposition and transportation and a normal profit margin. As of August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, inventory amounted to $0 and $3,171, respectively, which consisted of finished goods. During the year ended August 31, 2020 the Company adjusted the reserves by $8,424 for products sold. As of August 31, 2020 and 2019 inventory reserves were $40,252 and $48,676, respectively.

  

Revenue Recognition

 

We account the revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606. Net revenue is measured based on the amount of consideration that we expect to receive, reduced by discounts and estimates for credits and returns (calculated based upon previous experience and management’s evaluation). Outbound shipping charged to customers is recognized at the time the related merchandise revenues are recognized and are included in net revenues. Inbound and outbound shipping and delivery costs are included in cost of revenues. Net revenues exclude sales and other similar taxes collected from customers.

 

Our products are sold through our online and telephonic channels. Revenue is recognized when control of the merchandise is transferred to the customer, which generally occurs upon shipment. Payment is typically due on the date of shipment. The Company offers a 14 day return policy on sales.

 

Stock Option Plans

 

Stock options and warrants issued to consultants and other non-employees as compensation for services provided to the Company are accounted for based on the fair value of the services provided or the estimated fair market value of the option or warrant, whichever is more reliably measurable, and in accordance FASB ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, including related amendments and interpretations. The related expense is recognized over the period the services are provided. Stock option compensation expense has been recognized as a component of general and administrative expenses in the accompanying financial statements for the years ended August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019.

 

Net Income / (Loss) per Share

 

Basic income / (loss) per share amounts are computed based on net income / (loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution that could occur if potentially dilutive securities were exercised or converted to common stock. The dilutive effect of options and warrants and their equivalent is computed by application of the treasury stock method and the effect of convertible securities by the “if converted” method. The effect of 3,450,000 warrants and 16,000,000 options is anti-dilutive for the year ended August 31, 2020 as well as 500,000,000 shares issuable upon the conversion of a convertible note. The effect of 3,330,000 warrants and 1,200,000 options is anti-dilutive for the year ended August 31, 2019.

Change of Control

 

On April 16, 2020, Niquana Noel sold 1 outstanding share of Series C Preferred Stock of the Company to Danil Pollack for $24,000 in a private transaction. The Series C Preferred Stock entitles the holder to 51% of the voting power of the Company’s stockholders, and the stock sale thus resulted in a change in control of the Company.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which will amend current lease accounting to require lessees to recognize (i) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis, and (ii) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. ASU 2016-02 does not significantly change lease accounting requirements applicable to lessors; however, certain changes were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model. This standard was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years.

 

The adoption of ASU 2016-02 did not have an impact on our balance sheet, results of operations or balance sheets as we currently do not have any long term corporate office and equipment leases.

 

2. ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT

 

On February 21, 2017, the Company purchased all right, title, interest and goodwill in or associated with certain domain names set forth in an asset purchase agreement for a total of $20,185 in cash and 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $30,000. For the years ended August 31, 2020 and 2019 amortization expense was $2,508 and $3,445, respectively. The domain names are being amortized over a 15 year period. During the years ended August 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded an impairment expense of $289 and $0, respectively for expired domain names.

 

On December 24, 2019, the Company repaid a note holder $120,000, and transferred certain URLs valued at $5,282 to the holder (See note 4.)

 

3. NOTE PAYABLE - RELATED PARTY

 

On August 31, 2020, the Company issued a promissory note in the principal amount of $150,000, to Danil Pollack, the Company’s chief executive officer. Upon execution of the note, $120,000 was remitted and the remaining $30,000 was paid on September 22, 2020. The note does not bear interest and matures on November 30, 2020.

 

4. CONVERTIBLE NOTE PAYABLE

 

On November 6, 2019, the Company entered into and closed a securities purchase agreement with an accredited investor, pursuant to which, the Company issued and sold to the investor an original issue discount convertible debenture (which was amended and restated on November 11, 2019) in the principal amount of $200,000, for a purchase price of $100,000, resulting in an original issue discount of $100,000. The Company also issued to the investor 4,900,000 shares of common stock valued at $63,700 ($0.013 per share). As amended, the debenture had a maturity date of August 1, 2020 and was convertible into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $0.006, provided that, if the Company failed to repay the debenture upon maturity, the conversion price would be reduced to $0.001 (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends and similar transactions) and the debenture would bear interest at the rate of 9% per year. The Company recorded beneficial conversion of $36,300 due to the conversion feature. The debenture could not be converted to common stock to the extent such conversion would result in the holder beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The Company’s obligation to repay the debenture upon maturity was secured by a security interest in the Company’s URLs pursuant to a security agreement between the Company and the investor. 

 

On December 24, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement (the “Repayment Agreement”) with the holder of the amended and restated original issue discount convertible debenture issued by the Company on November 11, 2019, in the original principal amount of $200,000 (the “November 2019 Debenture”). Pursuant to the Repayment Agreement, the Company paid the holder $120,000, and transferred certain URLs valued at $5,282 to the holder, and the November 2019 Debenture was deemed paid in full. The amortization of debt discount of $35,688 was recorded during the year ended August 31, 2020. The Company recognized a loss on settlement of debt of $89,595, during the year ended August 31, 2020.

For the year ended August 31, 2020 the Company recorded amortization of debt discount of $500,000. On April 23, 2020, the Company entered into an amendment to the security agreement, dated December 24, 2019 between the Company and the holder of the Company’s original issue discount convertible debenture, dated December 24, 2019.

The COVID-19 pandemic may negatively affect our operations, including by limiting access to our facilities, customers, management, and professional advisors, and causing delays and constraints in manufacturing and shipping of our products. These factors, in turn, may negatively impact our operations, financial condition and demand for our products, and our ability to raise capital on acceptable terms, or at all.

8. MAJOR CUSTOMERS

 

At August 31, 2020, no individual customer amounted to over 10%. There are concentrations of credit risk with respect to accounts receivables due to the amounts owed by one customer at August 31, 2019 whose balance represented approximately 28%, of total accounts receivables. During the years ended August 31, 2020 and 2019 no individual customer amounted to over 10% of total sales. 

 

9. INCOME TAXES

 

FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes, requires a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if, based on the weight of the evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. After consideration of all the evidence, both positive and negative, management has determined that a full valuation allowance of approximately $947,000 and $842,000 against its net deferred taxes is necessary as of August 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

At August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, respectively, the Company had approximately $3,156,000 of U.S. net operating loss carryforwards remaining, which expire beginning in 2032. At August 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, the Company had approximately $1,120,000 and $655,000, respectively that can be forward indefinitely.

 

Tax returns for the years ended August 31, 2020, 2019, 2018, 2017, and 2016 are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service.

 

A reconciliation of the Company’s income taxes to amounts calculated at the federal statutory rate is as follows for the years ended August 31:

 

   2020   2019 
         
Federal and state statutory taxes   (25.00)%   (25.00)%
Change in tax rate estimate   -%   -%
Permanent differences   22.50%   20,00%
Change in valuation allowance   2.50%   5.00%
    -%   -%

 

In assessing the recovery of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversals of future deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. As a result, management determined it was more likely than not the deferred tax assets would not be realized as of August 31, 2020 and 2019 and recorded a full valuation allowance.

 

F-15

 

 

Components of net deferred tax assets, including a valuation allowance, are as follows at August 31:

 

   2020   2019 
Deferred tax assets:        
Inventory impairment   11,129    13,264 
Bad debt expense   756    - 
Net operating loss   946,775    828,901 
Valuation allowance   (958,660)   (842,165)
Total deferred tax assets  $-   $- 

 

A reconciliation of the expected income tax benefit at the U.S. Federal income tax rate to the income tax benefit actually recognized for the years ended August 31, 2020 and 2019 is set forth below:

 

   2020   2019 
         
Net (loss) / income   (1,176,212)   654,094
Non-deductible expenses and other   1,059,717   (833,419)
Effect due to decrease in tax rates   -    - 
Change in valuation allowance   116,495   179,325 
Benefit from income taxes  $-   $- 

 

As a result of certain ownership changes, the Company may be subject to an annual limitation on the utilization of its U.S. net operating loss carryforwards pursuant to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. A study to determine the effect, if any, of this change, has not been undertaken.

 

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS 

 

On September 22, 2020, the Company received $30,000 from Danil Pollack, the Company’s chief executive officer, representing the remaining amount owed for sale of a promissory note in the principal amount of $150,000. See note 6.

 

On October 2, 2020, the Company filed a certificate of amendment to the Company’s articles of incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada, pursuant to which the Company increased its authorized shares of common stock from 800,000,000 to 3,000,000,000.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure and Control Procedures

 

Management of the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the as of the end of the period covered by this report. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (the “SEC”) rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective due to the following material weaknesses:

 

Our chief executive officer also functions as our chief financial officer.  As a result, our officer may not be able to identify errors and irregularities in the financial statements and reports.

     

We were unable to maintain full segregation of duties within our financial operations due to our reliance on limited personnel in the finance function.  While this control deficiency did not result in any audit adjustments to our financial statements, it could have resulted in a material misstatement that might have been prevented or detected by a segregation of duties.

     

Documentation of all proper accounting procedures is not yet complete.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our 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 of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2020 based on the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013).

 

14

 

 

A material weakness is defined within the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board’s Auditing Standard No. 5 as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

In conducting his evaluation, our officer noted the following material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting:

 

While certain accounting procedures have been adopted, compliance with such procedures has been inconsistent.

     

The board of directors has not established an Audit Committee.  Accordingly, the entire board, rather than an independent body, has reviewed our financial statements.

     

Segregation procedures could be improved by strengthening cross approval of various functions, including cash disbursements and internal audit procedures where appropriate.

 

As a result of these deficiencies in our internal controls, our officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective. 

 

To the extent reasonably possible given our limited resources, we intend to take measures to cure the aforementioned weaknesses, including, but not limited to, increasing the capacity of our qualified financial personnel to ensure that accounting policies and procedures are consistent across the organization and that we have adequate control over financial statement disclosures.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(t) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended August 31, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s officers and directors, and certain persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities (collectively, “Reporting Persons”), to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership (“Section 16 Reports”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Based solely on its review of the copies of such Section 16 Reports received by the Company, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to the Company’s Reporting Persons during and with respect to the fiscal year ended August 31, 2020 have been complied with on a timely basis, except that a Form 4 was filed late by Danil Pollack, resulting in one transaction not being reported on a timely basis, and a Form 4 was filed late by Niquana Noel, resulting in two transactions not being reported on a timely basis.

  

Board Committees

 

We have not established any committees of the board of directors due to the small size of the Company and the board. We do not have an audit committee financial expert because we do not have the resources to retain one.

 

Board Leadership Structure and Role on Risk Oversight

  

Danil Pollack is presently the only board member.

 

Our board is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes. The board focuses on the most significant risks facing the Company and the Company’s general risk management strategy, and also ensures that risks undertaken by the Company are consistent with the board’s appetite for risk. While the board oversees the Company’s risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing the Company and that our board leadership structure supports this approach.
