TAURIGA SCIENCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
(Formerly Immunovative, Inc. and Subsidiary)
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2013
(unaudited)
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND GOING CONCERN
Nature of Business
The Company, prior to December 12, 2011, was involved in the business of exploiting new technologies for the production of clean energy. The Company is now moving in the direction of a diversified biotechnology company which includes medical devices and the development of proprietary drug compounds. The mission of the company is to acquire a diversified portfolio of medical technologies.
In May 2011, the Company had entered into an exclusive memorandum of understanding with Immunovative Therapies, Ltd. (“ITL”) (an Israeli company) whereby the Company would acquire a subsidiary of ITL. On December 12, 2011, the Company terminated this memorandum of understanding and entered into a License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with ITL, pursuant to which the Company received an immediate exclusive and worldwide license to commercialize all the Licensed Products based on ITL’s current and future patents and a patent in-licensed from the University of Arizona. The license granted covered two experimental products for the treatment of cancer in clinical development called AlloStim TM and Allo Vax TM (“Licensed Products”). On May 8, 2012, the Company changed its name to Immunovative, Inc. to better reflect its new direction on the development and commercialization of the next generation of immunotherapy treatments.
On January 8, 2013, the Company received from ITL, a notice by which ITL purported to terminate the License Agreement dated December 9, 2011 between the Company and ITL (the “ITL Notice”), along with alleged damages. It is the Company’s position that ITL breached the License Agreement by delivering the ITL Notice and, that prior to the ITL Notice, the License Agreement was in full force and, on January 17, 2013, and that the Company had complied in all material respects with the License Agreement and therefore the Company believes that there are no damages to ITL. As such, on January 17, 2013, the Company filed a lawsuit against ITL, which included the request for various injunctive relief against ITL for damages stemming from this breach. On February 19, 2013, the Company and ITL entered into a settlement agreement whereby the parties have agreed to the following: (1) the Company will submit a letter to the Court advising the Court that the parties have reached a settlement and that the Company is withdrawing its motion, (2) ITL will pay the Company $20,000, (3) ITL will issue to the Company, ITL’s share capital equivalent to 9% of the issued and outstanding shares of ITL, (4) the Company will change its name and (5) the settling parties agree that the license agreement will be terminated.
On March 13, 2013, the Company changed its name to Tauriga Sciences, Inc. to better reflect its new direction. The Company traded under the symbol “TAUG” beginning on April 9, 2013.
On May 31, 2013, the Company signed a Licensing Agreement with Green Hygienics, Inc. (“GHI”) to enable the Company on an exclusive basis for North America, to market and sell 100% tree-free, bamboo-based, biodegradable, hospital grade wipes, as well as other similar products. The Company contracted to pay $250,000 for the licensing rights and issued 4,347,826 shares of common stock of the Company to GHI whereas GHI’s parent company, Green Innovations Ltd. (“GNIN”) has issued the Company 625,000 shares of common stock of GNIN. The Company paid $143,730 in cash to GHI and, in lieu of the remaining $106,270 to be paid in cash, the chief executive officer issued from his personal holdings of Company stock to GHI an additional 2,500,000 shares of common stock of the Company. The shares issued by the chief executive officer were recorded as a capital contribution. See Notes 4, 5, and 8.
On October 29, 2013, the Company entered into a strategic alliance agreement with Bacterial Robotics, LLC (Bacterial Robotics), hereinafter referred to as the “Parties”. Bacterial Robotics owns certain patents and/or other intellectual property related to the development of genetically modified micro-organisms (GMOs) and GMOs tailored to perform one of more specific functions, one such GMO being adopted to clean polluting molecules from wastewater, such GMO being referred to herein as the existing BoctoBot Technology (the BR Technology). Bacterial Robotics is developing a whitepaper to deliver to the Company for acceptance. Upon acceptance by the Company, the Parties will form a strategic relationship through the formation of a joint venture in which the Company will be the majority and controlling owner which will use the NuclearBot Technology to further the growth of the nuclear wastewater treatment market. The intent is for Bacterial Robotics to issue a 10 year license agreement.
On November 25, 2013, the Company executed a definitive agreement to acquire Pilus Energy, LLC (“Pilus”), a Ohio limited liability company and a developer of alternative cleantech energy platforms using proprietary microbial solutions that creates electricity while consuming polluting molecules from wastewater (The wastewater is a $10 billion industry). Pilus is converging digester, fermenter, scrubber, and other proven technologies into a scalable Electrogenic Bioreactor (“EBR”) platform. This transformative technology is the basis of the Pilus Cell™. The EBR harnesses genetically enhanced bacteria, also known as bacterial robots, or BactoBots™, that remediate water, harvest direct current (“DC”) electricity, and produce economically important gases. The EBR accomplishes this through bacterial metabolism, specifically cellular respiration of nearly four hundred carbon and nitrogen molecules. Pilus’ highly metabolic bacteria are non-pathogenic. Because of the mediated biofilm formation, these wastewater-to-value BactoBots resist heavy metal poisoning, swings of pH, and survive in a 4-to-45 degree Celsius temperature range. Additionally, the BactoBots are anaerobically and aerobically active, even with low BOD/COD. On January 28, 2014, the acquisition was completed. Pilus will operate as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. As a condition of the acquisition, Pilus will get one seat on the board of directors, and the shareholders of Pilus will receive 100,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company, which represented a fair market value of approximately $2,000,000. In addition, the Company paid Bacterial Robotics, LLC (“BRLLC”), formerly the parent company of Pilus, $50,000 at closing. In total, the Company paid BRLLC $125,000, which is inclusive of fees contractually owed for strategic alliance, definitive agreement, and the completion of Pilus.

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial statement presentation and in accordance with Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required in annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations and cash flows. The results of operations presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire year.
These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our 2013 annual financial statements included in our Form 10-K, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 12, 2013.
Going Concern
As indicated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred net operating losses of $5,489,199 for the nine months ended December 31, 2013. Since inception of development stage, the Company has incurred net losses of $21,230,874. Management’s plans include the raising of capital through equity markets to fund future operations and cultivating new license agreements or acquiring ownership in medical companies. Failure to raise adequate capital and generate adequate sales revenues could result in the Company having to curtail or cease operations. Additionally, even if the Company does raise sufficient capital to support its operating expenses, acquire new license agreement or ownership interests in medical companies and generate adequate revenues, there can be no assurances that the revenues will be sufficient to enable it to develop business to a level where it will generate profits and cash flows from operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. However, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Foreign Currency Translation
Commencing with the quarter ended June 30, 2012, the Company considers the U.S. dollar to be its functional currency. Prior to March 31, 2012, the Company considered the Canadian dollar to be its functional currency. Assets and liabilities were translated into U.S. dollars at year-end exchange rates. Statement of operations amounts were translated using the average rate during the year. Gains and losses resulting from translating foreign currency financial statements were included in accumulated other comprehensive gain or loss, a separate component of stockholders’ deficit.
Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash equivalents include investment instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.
Equipment and Depreciation
Equipment is stated at cost and is depreciated using the straight line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Routine maintenance, repairs and replacement costs are expensed as incurred and improvements that extend the useful life of the assets are capitalized. When equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in operations.
Intangible Asset
Intangible asset, consisting of a licensing fee, is stated at cost and has been determined to have a five year life based on the terms of the licensing agreement.
Consolidated Financial Statements
The financial statements include the accounts and activities of Tauriga Sciences, Inc. and its wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary, Tauriga Canada, Inc. (formerly known as Immunovative Canada, Inc.) All inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Net Loss Per Common Share
The Company computes per share amounts in accordance with ASC Topic 260 Earnings per Share (“EPS”) which requires presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed by dividing the income (loss) available to Common Stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS is based on the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock and Common Stock equivalents outstanding during the periods. A fully diluted calculation is not presented since the results would be anti-dilutive.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for Stock-Based Compensation under ASC 718 “Compensation-Stock Compensation”, which addresses the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, with a primary focus on transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. ASC 718-10 requires measurement of cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions). Incremental compensation costs arising from subsequent modifications of awards after the grant date must be recognized.
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation awards to non-employees in accordance with ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. Under ASC 505-50, the Company determines the fair value of the warrants or stock-based compensation awards granted as either the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Any stock options or warrants issued to non-employees are recorded in expense and an offset to additional paid-in capital in shareholders’ equity/(deficit) over the applicable service periods through the vesting dates based on the fair value of the options or warrants at the end of each period.
The Company issues stock to consultants for various services. The costs for these transactions are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of the common stock is measured at the earlier of (1) the date at which a firm commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached or (2) the date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete. The Company recognized consulting expense and a corresponding increase to additional paid-in-capital related to stock issued for services.
Comprehensive Income
The Company has adopted ASC 211-05 effective January 1, 2012 which requires entities to report comprehensive income within a continuous statement of comprehensive income.
Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes utilizing the liability method of accounting. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on differences between financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates in effect in years in which differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are expected to be realized.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets, primarily fixed assets and intangibles, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets might not be recoverable. The Company will perform a periodic assessment of assets for impairment in the absence of such information or indicators. Conditions that would necessitate an impairment assessment include a significant decline in the observable market value of an asset, a significant change in the extent or manner in which an asset is used, or a significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets is not recoverable. For long-lived assets to be held and used, the Company would recognize an impairment loss only if its carrying amount is not recoverable through its undiscounted cash flows and measures the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amount and estimated fair value.
Research and Development
The Company expenses research and development costs as incurred.
Fair Value Measurements
ASC 820 Fair Value Measurements defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements.
The following provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which fair value is observable:
Level 1- fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted in active markets for identical assets or liabilities);
TAURIGA SCIENCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
(Formerly Immunovative, Inc. and Subsidiary)
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2013
(unaudited)
Level 2- fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
Level 3- fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
Financial instruments classified as Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets include cash.
These consolidated financial instruments are measured using management’s best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment to estimation. Valuations based on unobservable inputs are highly subjective and require significant judgments. Changes in such judgments could have a material impact on fair value estimates. In addition, since estimates are as of a specific point in time, they are susceptible to material near-term changes. Changes in economic conditions may also dramatically affect the estimated fair values.
Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2013. The respective carrying value of certain financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. These financial instruments include cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses and due to related parties.
Uncertainty in Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the liability method, future tax liabilities and assets are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the amounts reported in the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Future tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted income tax rates expected to apply when the asset is realized or the liability settled. The effect of a change in income tax rates on future income tax liabilities and assets is recognized in income in the period that the change occurs. Future income tax assets are recognized to the extent that they are considered more likely than not to be realized.
ASC 740 “Income Taxes” clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements. This standard requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more-likely-than-not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements.
As a result of the implementation of this standard, the Company performed a review of its material tax positions in accordance with recognition and measurement standards established by ASC 740 and concluded that the tax position of the Company does meet the more-likely-than-not threshold as of December 31, 2013.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Management does not believe any other recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have an effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

On January 28, 2014 (the "Closing Date"),the Company completed its acquisition of Pilus Energy LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“Pilus Energy”), pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger, as amended by Amendment No.1 to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated January 28, 2014 (collectively, the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, Pilus Acquisition, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“Pilus Acquiror”), Bacterial Robotics, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company (“BR”), Pilus Energy, Daniel J. Hassett, PhD, (“Hassett”) and Cody Harrison (“Harrison”), and such other individuals who joined as parties to the Merger Agreement by execution of a joinder agreement prior to the closing of the merger transaction.
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, on the Closing Date, Pilus Acquiror merged with and into Pilus Energy, with Pilus Energy being the surviving entity and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company will pay BR a total cash consideration of $50,000, payable by February 20, 2014, in connection with the Merger Agreement, and issued Warrants exercisable for up to 100 million shares of Common Stock of the Company (the “Warrants”) to BR, its members and Pilus Energy’s members, who each exchanged, on a pro-rata basis, their membership interests in BR and Pilus Energy for the Warrants.
In addition, the parties to the Merger Agreement, dated November 25, 2013, agreed to amend certain covenants and closing conditions thereto prior to the closing of the Merger. The material changes set forth in the Amendment No. 1 to the Merger Agreement included: (i) the elimination of the covenant that the Company complete a reverse stock split as a condition to closing of the Merger, (ii) a replacement of the requirement to raise $2.25 million by the Company within 180 days of execution of the Merger Agreement, with a requirement that the Company instead agreed to pay BR (a) $75,000 upon the receipt by the Company of the first $1 million of funding for pilot programs or other projects utilizing the intellectual property assigned to the Company by Pilus Energy as part of the Merger and (b) $100,000 upon receipt by the Company of a second $1 million in funding by the Company for the purpose of funding projects that use the intellectual property acquired in the merger, (iii) revise certain Intellectual Property sections of the Merger Agreement to reflect the right to use certain Trademarks and Trade Secrets by Tauriga, (iv) add a covenant that the Company will cover the costs related to Pilus Energy’s intellectual property following the consummation of the Merger, (v) add a covenant that Tauriga shall establish a stock option plan for BR, (vi) add a guarantee that key man insurance is in place by the closing of the Merger, (vi) address a plan for management of Pilus Energy following the merger, and (vii) revise the Merger Agreement to reflect the Assignment (and ownership) of certain Pilus Energy intellectual property, rather than the granting of a License to use such intellectual property.
In connection with the closing of the merger, BR, Jason E. Barkeloo, the Chief Executive Officer of BR, Hassett, Harrison and each member of Pilus Energy entered a Release and Covenant Not to Sue in favor of the Company, and a Standstill and Voting Agreement with the Company, agreeing to restrictions on acquisition of additional Company capital stock, transactions involving Company or proxy solicitations. The BR and Pilus Energy members that were not previously a party to the Merger Agreement (at the time of initial signing on November 25, 2013), also signed a Joinder Agreement binding them to the terms of the Merger Agreement prior to the Closing.
Subsequent to December 31, 2013, the Company issued 54,557,827 shares in connection with the Conversion of Convertible Notes and issued 67,014,000 in connection with consulting agreements.

THIS REPORT CONTAINS FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 27A OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933 AND SECTION 21E OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934. THESE FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES THAT COULD CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS TO DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM HISTORICAL RESULTS OR ANTICIPATED RESULTS, INCLUDING THOSE SET FORTH UNDER "RISK FACTORS" IN THIS “MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS" AND ELSEWHERE IN THIS REPORT. THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH "SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA" AND THE COMPANY'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND NOTES THERETO INCLUDED ELSEWHERE IN THIS REPORT.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
We are a Florida corporation formed on April 8, 2001. We were originally organized to be a blank check company.
On June 8, 2009, the Board of Directors approved the change of name to “Novo Energies Corporation”. As described in a report filed with the United States (“U.S.”) Securities and Exchange Commission on June 26, 2009, a majority of shareholders executed a written consent in lieu of an Annual Meeting (the “Written Consent”) effecting the change of the name of our business from “Atlantic Wine Agencies, Inc.” to “Novo Energies Corporation” on June 8, 2009 to better reflect what we then intended to be our future operations. We filed an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation on June 8, 2009 with the Florida Secretary of State to affect this name change after receiving the requisite corporate approval.
On June 23, 2009, the Board of Directors approved a 3-for-1 forward stock split. Accordingly, all share and per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted in the accompanying financial statements.
On July 30, 2009, Novo Energies Corporation (“Novo”) formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, WTL Renewable Energy, Inc. (“WTL”). WTL was established as a Canadian Federal Corporation whose business is to initially research available technologies capable of transforming plastic and tires into useful energy commodities. Simultaneously, WTL also intended to plan, build, own, and operate renewable energy plants throughout Canada utilizing a third party technology and using plastic and tire waste as feedstock. On May 8, 2012, the name was changed to Immunovative Canada, Inc.
On May 17, 2011, Novo entered into an exclusive memorandum of understanding with Immunovative Clinical Research, Inc. (“ICRI”), a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Immunovative Therapies, Ltd. (“ITL”), an Israeli corporation pursuant to which the Company and ICRI intended to pursue a merger resulting in Novo owning ICRI.
In April 2012, the Board of Directors approved the change of name to “Immunovative, Inc.” As described in a report filed with the United States (“U.S.”) Securities and Exchange Commission on April 30, 2012, a majority of shareholders executed a written consent in lieu of an Annual Meeting (the “Written Consent”) effecting the change of the name of our business from “Novo Energies Corporation” to “Immunovative, Inc.” on April 2, 2012 to better reflect what we then intended to be our future operations. We filed an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation on April 30, 2012 with the Florida Secretary of State to affect this name change after receiving the requisite corporate approval.
On January 8, 2013, the Company received from ITL, a notice by which ITL purported to terminate the License Agreement dated December 9, 2011 between the Company and ITL (the “ITL Notice”), along with alleged damages. It is the Company’s position that ITL breached the License Agreement by delivering the ITL Notice and, that prior to the ITL Notice, the License Agreement was in full force and, on January 17, 2013 and that the Company had complied in all material respect with the License Agreement therefore the Company believes that there are no damages to ITL. As such, on January 17, 2013, the Company filed a lawsuit against ITL, which included the request for various injunctive relief against ITL for damages stemming from this breach.
On February 19, 2013, the Company and ITL entered into a settlement agreement whereby the parties have agreed to the following: (1) the Company will submit a letter to the Court advising the Court that the parties have reached a settlement and that the Company is withdrawing its motion, (2) ITL will pay the Company $20,000, (3) ITL will issue to the Company, ITL’s share capital equivalent to 9% of the issued and outstanding shares of ITL, (4) the Company will change its name and (5) the settling parties agree that the license agreement will be terminated.
On March 13, 2013, the Board of Directors approved the change of name to “Tauriga Sciences, Inc.” from “Immunovative, Inc.” We filed an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation on March 13, 2013 with the Florida Secretary of State to affect this name change after receiving the requisite corporate approval. The Company’s symbol change to “TAUG” was approved by FINRA effective April 9, 2013.
In March 2013, the Company signed a Memorandum of Understanding (“Marvanal MOU”) with Marvanal, Inc. (“Marvanal”), a company who is an approved vendor with the State of Connecticut public school food lunch program (“CT Food Program”). Marvanal’s lactose-free dairy products are authorized for the 2012-2013 CT Food Program and is currently developing a comprehensive line of dairy products utilizing a specific food-protein concentration-based technology. The Marvanal MOU was for the Company to acquire the exclusive marketing rights within the State of New York for Marvanal’s lactose-free, dairy product line. The Company is not pursuing the Marvanal MOU.
In May 2013, the Company signed a Memorandum of Understanding (“Constellation MOU”) with Constellation Diagnostics, Inc. (“Constellation”). Constellation is a developer of camera-based technology with the goal of preventing skin cancer through early detection. Under the terms of the Constellation MOU, the Company and Constellation will establish a joint venture partnership to develop and commercialize a novel, imaging-based diagnostic technology for use in predictive and preventative oncology. Constellation has already begun product development in collaboration with professors at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (“MIT”) and Harvard University. The Company made an initial investment in Constellation of $100,000 for a 2% equity stake. The Constellation MOU provides the potential of the Company earning an equity stake in Constellation of up to 35% with up to $1,000,000 in investments.
On May 31, 2013, the Company signed a Licensing Agreement with Green Hygienics, Inc. (“GHI”) to enable the Company on an exclusive basis for North America, to market and sell 100% tree-free, bamboo-based, biodegradable, hospital grade wipes, as well as other similar products.
On October 29, 2013, the Company entered into a strategic alliance agreement with Bacterial Robotics, LLC (Bacterial Robotics), hereinafter referred to as the "Parties". Bacterial Robotics owns certain patents and/or other intellectual property related to the development of genetically modified micro-organisms (GMOs) and GMOs tailored to perform one of more specific functions, one such GMO being adopted to clean polluting molecules from wastewater, such GMO being referred to herein as the existing BoctoBot Technology (the BR Technology). Bacterial Robotics is developing a whitepaper to deliver to the Company for acceptance. Upon acceptance by the Company, the Parties will form a strategic relationship through the formation of a joint venture in which the Company will be the majority and controlling owner which will use the NuclearBot Technology to further the growth of the nuclear wastewater treatment market. The intent is for Bacterial Robotics to issue a 10 year license agreement.
On November 25, 2013, the Company executed a definitive agreement to acquire Pilus, a developer of alternative cleantech energy platforms using proprietary microbial solutions that creates electricity while consuming polluting molecules from wastewater (The wastewater is a $10 billion industry). Pilus is converging digester, fermenter, scrubber, and other proven technologies into a scalable Electrogenic Bioreactor (“EBR”) platform. This transformative technology is the basis of the Pilus Cell™. The EBR harnesses genetically enhanced bacteria, also known as bacterial robots, or BactoBots™, that remediate water, harvest direct current (“DC”) electricity, and produce economically important gases. The EBR accomplishes this through bacterial metabolism, specifically cellular respiration of nearly four hundred carbon and nitrogen molecules. Pilus’ highly metabolic bacteria are non-pathogenic. Because of the mediated biofilm formation, these wastewater-to-value BactoBots resist heavy metal poisoning, swings of pH, and survive in a 4-to-45 degree Celsius temperature range. Additionally, the BactoBots are anaerobically and aerobically active, even with low BOD/COD. On January 28, 2014, the acquisition was completed. Pilus will operate as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. As a condition of the acquisition, Pilus will get one seat on the board of directors, and the shareholders of Pilus will receive 100,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company, which represented a fair market value of approximately $2,000,000. In addition, the Company paid Bacterial Robotics, LLC (“BRLLC”), formerly the parent company of Pilus, $50,000 at closing. In total, the Company paid BRLLC $125,000, which is inclusive of fees contractually owed for strategic alliance, definitive agreement, and the completion of Pilus.
The Company has signed Memorandum of Understandings (“MOU”) and/or Letter of Intents (“LOI”) with various groups and/or companies and is currently negotiating for completion of the respective agreements to include one or more operations into the Company. These MOUs and/or LOIs have all been released as public information through a Form 8-K and/or a press release. There are no guarantees that the outstanding MOUs and/or LOIs will be finalized.
The following Management Discussion and Analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in this Form 10-Q.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three months ended December 31, 2013 compared to the three months ended December 31, 2012

The Company, under the license agreement with Immunovative Therapies, Ltd., advanced funding to facilitate research and development. The Company impaired the advances as the value was undeterminable at the time.
Net Loss. We generated net losses of $1,599,159 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 compared to $3,592,683 for the same period in 2012, a decrease of 43.8%.
Nine months ended December 31, 2013 compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2012
Revenue. The Company is currently developing its business, and as a result has no products or services to offer and no revenues.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. For the nine months ended December 31, 2013, selling, general and administrative expenses were $4,460,880 compared to $5,479,420 for the same period in 2012. The expense for 2013 is primarily composed of a stock-based compensation ($3,101,043), accounting fees ($103,015), legal fees ($207,748), and consulting fees ($272,568).
Impairment of advances to Immunovative Therapies, Ltd. for future stock ownership. For the nine months ended December 31, 2013, the impairment expense was $0 compared to $2,714,049 for the same period in 2012. The Company, under the license agreement with Immunovative Therapies, Ltd., advanced funding to facilitate research and development. The Company impaired the advances as the value was undeterminable at the time.
Net Loss. We generated net losses of $5,489,199 for the nine months ended December 31, 2013 compared to $8,207,636 for the same period in 2012, a decrease of 33.2%.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We continue to fund our operations through private placement offerings and other financings.
During the nine months ending December 31, 2013, the Company sold 4,569,248 shares of common stock for a total of $141,350.
During the nine months ending December 31, 2013, the Company issued Convertible Notes aggregating $1,515,138.
At December 31, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of $67,628 compared to $143,034 at March 31, 2013.
Cash Flows
Net cash used in operating activities amounted to $4,885,906 for the period from December 12, 2011 (inception of Development Stage) to December 31, 2013. Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $1,505,163 and $2,519,916, respectively.
During the nine months ended December 31, 2013, we used $243,884 in investing activities, primarily the acquisition of the license agreement.
During the nine months ended December 31, 2012, we used $2,675,883 in investing activities primarily related to the advances to Immunovative Therapies LTD, for future stock ownership.
During the period from inception December 12, 2011 (inception of the Development Stage) to December 31, 2013, we generated $8,548,506 net of $643,956 in cash paid for commission and issued 5,335,000 shares of the common stock for commission paid with stock.
During the nine months ended December 31, 2013, we generated cash from financing activates of $1,656,488 primarily from the sale of common stock. During the nine months ended December 31, 2012, we generated cash from financing activities of $4,644,803 primarily from the sale of common stock.
We do not believe that our cash on hand at December 31, 2013 will be sufficient to fund our license agreement requirements if all the conditions of the license agreement required of the licensor are met. We will continue to seek additional equity financing. However, there is no assurance that we will be successful in our equity private placements.
Going Concern Qualifications
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had no revenue and net losses of $5,489,199 for the period ended December 31, 2013 compared to sales of $0 and net loss of $8,207,636 for the nine months ended December 31, 2012. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, since inception of the Development Stage (December 12, 2011) the Company had losses of $21,230,874 and there are existing uncertain conditions which the Company faces relative to its obtaining financing and capital in the equity markets. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company had working capital deficit and accumulated deficit during the development stage of $1,277,112 and $21,230,874, respectively, at December 31, 2013, and used cash in operations of $1,505,163 in the nine months ended December 31, 2013. The Company is highly dependent on its ability to continue to obtain investment capital from future funding opportunities to fund the current and planned operating levels. The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to bring in income generating activities and its ability to continue receiving investment capital from future funding opportunities. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Not applicable.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Securities and Exchange Commission defines the term “disclosure controls and procedures” to mean a company's controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its chief executive and chief financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company maintains such a system of controls and procedures in an effort to ensure that all information which it is required to disclose in the reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified under the SEC's rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to the chief executive and interim chief financial officer to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective as of such date. The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have determined that the Company continues to have the following deficiencies which represent a material weakness:
1.
|
The Company does not have an Audit Committee;
|
2.
|
Lack of in-house personnel with the technical knowledge to identify and address some of the reporting issues surrounding certain complex or non-routine transactions. With material, complex and non-routine transactions, management has and will continue to seek guidance from third-party experts and/or consultants to gain a thorough understanding of these transactions;
|
3.
|
Insufficient personnel resources within the accounting function to segregate the duties over financial transaction processing and reporting;
|
4.
|
Insufficient written policies and procedures over accounting transaction processing and period end financial disclosure and reporting processes.
|
To remediate our internal control weaknesses, management intends to implement the following measures:
|
●
|
The Company will add sufficient number of independent directors to the board and will form an Audit Committee with a qualified person to chair the committee.
|
|
●
|
The Company has hired a part-time chief financial officer and will add sufficient accounting personnel to properly segregate duties and to effect a timely, accurate preparation of the financial statements.
|
|
●
|
The Company will hire staff technically proficient at applying U.S. GAAP to financial transactions and reporting.
|
|
●
|
Upon the hiring of additional accounting personnel, the Company will develop and maintain adequate written accounting policies and procedures.
|
The additional hiring is contingent upon the Company’s efforts to obtain additional funding through equity or debt and the results of its operations. Management expects to secure funds in the coming fiscal year but provides no assurances that it will be able to do so.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except as set forth above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
The Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of the control system must reflect that there are resource constraints and that the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
From time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. As of December 31, 2013, there were no pending or threatened lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the results of our operations.
On January 8, 2013, the Company received from ITL, a notice by which ITL purported to terminate the License Agreement dated December 9, 2011 between the Company and ITL (the “ITL Notice”), along with alleged damages. It is the Company’s position that ITL breached the License Agreement by delivering the ITL Notice and, that prior to the ITL Notice, the License Agreement was in full force and, on January 17, 2013 and that the Company had complied in all material respect with the License Agreement therefore the Company believes that there are no damages to ITL. As such, on January 17, 2013, the Company filed a lawsuit against ITL, which included the request for various injunctive relief against ITL for damages stemming from this breach.
The Company, as of the date of this report, has funded ITL approximately $3.7 million under the Licensing Agreement and other related costs in connection with raising the capital and fulfillment of the Licensing Agreement by the Company.
On February 19, 2013, the Company and ITL entered into a settlement agreement whereby the parties have agreed to the following: (1) the Company will submit a letter to the Court advising the Court that the parties have reached a settlement and that the Company is withdrawing its motion, (2) ITL will pay the Company $20,000, (3) ITL will issue to the Company, ITL’s share capital equivalent to 9% of the issued and outstanding shares of ITL, (4) the Company will change its name and (5) the settling parties agree that the license agreement will be terminated.
