Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and
with the participation of our senior management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we performed
an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under
the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this annual report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this
evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer who is also our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2017, our disclosure
controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that material information required to be disclosed by
us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the
time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
We do not have an audit
committee. While we are not currently obligated to have an audit committee, including a member who is an “audit committee
financial expert,” as defined in Item 407 of Regulation S-K, under applicable regulations or listing standards; however,
it is management’s view that such a committee is an important internal control over financial reporting, the lack of which
may result in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of internal controls and procedures.
Based on this evaluation,
we determined that as of September 30, 2017, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the following:
•
We do not have a majority of independent directors on our board of directors, which may result in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures.
•
We have an inadequate number of personnel to properly implement control procedures.
•
Due to the size and lack of resources of our Company, we have not fully developed formal accounting policies and procedures.
•
We have not properly complied with all aspects of the Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in 2013.
Management’s Report on Internal
Control over Financial Reporting
As
of September 30, 2017, management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria
for effective internal control over financial reporting established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based
on that evaluation, they concluded that during the period covered by this report, such internal controls and procedures were not
effective to detect the inappropriate application of US GAAP rules as more fully described below. This was due to deficiencies
that existed in the design or operation of our internal controls over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal
controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.
20
The
matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards
of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were:
(i)
lack of a functioning audit committee;
(ii)
inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; and
(iii)
ineffective controls over period-end financial disclosure and reporting processes.
The
aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by our Chief Executive and Financial Officer in connection with the review of
our financial statements as of September 30, 2017.
Management believes the
weaknesses identified above have not had any material effect on our financial statements. However, we are currently reviewing our
disclosure controls and procedures related to these material weaknesses and expect to implement changes as soon as practicable
and as resources allow, including identifying specific areas within our governance, accounting and financial reporting processes
to add adequate resources to remediate these material weaknesses.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial
Reporting
There were no changes
in our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended September 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or
are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
Management’s Remediation Plan
Subject
to raising additional working capital, we plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal control over
financial reporting. During the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K, we have not been able to remediate the material
weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to implement the following changes in the next fiscal year once
we have identified a suitable business to acquire and as our capital resources allow:
(i)
appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management and implement modifications to our financial controls to address such inadequacies;
(ii)
adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting; and
(iii)
appoint independent board members and a functioning audit committee.
The remediation efforts
set out in (i) is largely dependent upon our company identifying and acquiring a suitable operating business and securing additional
financing to cover the costs of hiring the requisite personnel and implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in
such endeavors, remediation efforts may be delayed. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of
controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within our 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.
Management believes that
despite our material weaknesses set forth above, our financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2017 are fairly stated,
in all material respects, in accordance with US GAAP.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL
OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
The following tables set
forth, as of September 30, 2017 certain information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock by each stockholder
known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our common stock and by each of our current directors and executive officers.
Each person has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares of common stock, except as otherwise indicated. Beneficial
ownership consists of a direct interest in the shares of common stock, except as otherwise indicated.

Act of 1934 based on information provided to us by our controlling stockholder, executive officers and directors, and this information
does not necessarily indicate beneficial ownership for any other purpose. In determining the number of shares of our common stock
beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, we include any shares as to which the person has sole
or shared voting power or investment power, as well as any shares subject to warrants or options held by that person that are currently
exercisable or exercisable within 60 days.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
FIRM
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors
of Peak Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated
balance sheets of Peak Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) as of September 30, 2017 and 2016, and the related consolidated
statements of operations, stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based
on our audits.
We conducted our audits in
accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that
we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the consolidated financial statements are free
of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal
control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis
for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on
the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An
audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
An audit also includes assessing 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.
In our opinion, based on our audits,
these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Peak
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. as of September 30, 2017 and 2016,and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years
then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated
financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to
the consolidated financial statements, the Company has a working capital deficiency, has incurred losses since inception, and
has negative cash flows from operations. The Company requires additional funds to meet its obligations and the costs of
its operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Management's plans in this regard are described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

PEAK PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2017
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS, BASIS
OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Company was incorporated in Nevada on
December 18, 2007. After numerous name changes, the Company changed its name to Peak Pharmaceuticals, Inc. on December 23,
2014. This name was consistent with our business operations and plans relating to development, manufacturing and marketing of
hemp-based nutraceutical and supplement products for the human and animal health markets. On October 1, 2015, we discontinued
certain operations of the Company.
Throughout this report, the terms “our,”
“we,” “us,” and the “Company” refer to Peak Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and its subsidiary, Peak
BioPharma Corp.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying audited consolidated financial
statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America (“U.S. GAAP”).
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include
the financial statements of the Company and our wholly owned subsidiary Peak BioPharma Corp. All inter-company balances and transactions
among the companies have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements
in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities
and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported
amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Significant estimates made in connection with
the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the estimate of valuation of stock-based compensation, and valuation
allowances against net deferred tax assets.
Financial Instruments
Our financial instruments consist of cash,
accounts payable and convertible notes. The carrying values of these instruments approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities
of these instruments.
Fair Value Measurements
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820"), provides a comprehensive framework for measuring
fair value and expands disclosures which are required about fair value measurements. Specifically, ASC 820 sets forth a definition
of fair value and establishes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted
prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable value inputs. ASC 820 defines
the hierarchy as follows:
Level 1 - Quoted prices are available in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 1 are
highly liquid and actively traded instruments with quoted prices.
F-6
Level 2 - Pricing inputs are other than quoted
prices in active markets, but are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities
in Level 2 are typically either comparable to actively traded securities or contracts, or priced with models using highly observable
inputs.
Level 3 - Significant inputs to pricing that
are unobservable as of the reporting date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 3 are those with inputs requiring
significant management judgment or estimation, such as complex and subjective models and forecasts used to determine the fair value
of financial transmission rights.
The Company’s financial instruments consist
of cash, accounts payable and convertible notes. The estimated fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying
amounts due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
Certain non-financial assets are measured at
fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Accordingly, these assets are not measured and adjusted to fair value on an ongoing basis,
but are subject to periodic impairment tests. These items primarily include long-lived assets and other intangible assets.
Long-lived Assets
On a periodic basis, management assesses whether
there are any indicators that the value of our long-lived assets may be impaired. An asset’s value may be impaired only if
management’s estimate of the aggregate future cash flows, on an undiscounted basis, to be generated by the asset are less
than the carrying value of the asset.
Our only long-lived assets are our
website and computer equipment. If impairment has occurred, the loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the
asset over its fair value. Our estimates of aggregate future cash flows expected to be generated by our long-lived asset are
based on several assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties. As these factors are difficult to
predict, and are subject to future events that may alter management’s assumptions, the future cash flows estimated by
management in their impairment analyses may not be achieved. During the years ended September 30, 2017, we charged $nil (2016
- $18,974) to amortization expense for the impairment of our website.
Loss Per Share
We calculate net loss per share in accordance
with ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share . Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average
number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period, and diluted earnings per share is computed by including common stock
equivalents outstanding for the period in the denominator. For the year ended September 30, 2017, any equivalents would have been
anti-dilutive as we had a loss for the period then ended.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments
with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2017, the Company
does not have any cash equivalents.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided based upon the liability
method of accounting pursuant to the ASC Topic 740 Income Taxes . Under this approach, deferred income taxes are recorded
to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial
reporting amounts at each year-end. A valuation allowance is recorded against the deferred tax asset if management does not believe
the Company has met the “more likely than not” standard to allow recognition of such an asset.
Equity Based Payments
Equity based payments are accounted for
in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation . The compensation cost is based upon fair
value of the equity instrument at the date grant. The fair value has been estimated using the Black Scholes option pricing
model. In addition, payments made to non-employees are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 505, Equity-Based payments to Non-Employees.
F-7
Intangible Asset
The intangible asset is our website that was
being amortized over the expected useful life which we estimated to be three years. During the year ended September 30, 2016, it
was determined the website was fully impaired as it was no longer used and as such we expensed the remaining balance to amortization
expense. Amortization expense charged to operations for the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, was $nil and
$18,974, respectively.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements
are issued that we adopt as of the specified effective date. We believe that the impact of recently issued standards that are not
yet effective may have an impact on our results of operations and financial position.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02,
Leases , to improve financial reporting about leasing transactions. This ASU will require organizations that lease assets
(“lessees”) to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use asset on its balance sheet for all leases with terms
of more than twelve months. A lease liability is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured
on a discounted basis and a right-of-use asset represents the lessee’s right to use, or control use of, a specified asset
for the lease term. The amendments in this ASU simplify the accounting for sale and leaseback transactions primarily because lessees
must recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. This ASU leaves the accounting for the organizations that own the assets leased
to the lessee (“lessor”) largely unchanged except for targeted improvements to align it with the lessee accounting
model and Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU No. 2016-02 is effective for reporting periods beginning after
December 15, 2018. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued authoritative
guidance regarding the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including income tax consequences, classification of awards
as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The guidance is to be applied for annual periods
beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those annual periods, and early adoption is permitted. The guidance
requires companies to apply the requirements retrospectively, modified retrospectively, or prospectively depending on the amendment(s)
applied. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.
In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016 –
10 “Revenue from Contract with Customers: identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing”. The amendments in this
Update clarify the two following aspects (a) contracts with customers to transfer goods and services in exchange for consideration
and (b) determining whether an entity’s promise to grant a license provides a customer with either a right to use the entity’s
intellectual property (which is satisfied at a point in time) or a right to access the entity’s intellectual property (which
is satisfied over time). The amendments in this Update are intended to reduce the degree of judgement necessary to comply with
Topic 606. This guidance has no effective date as yet. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15,
“Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments”. The new guidance is
intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15
is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Early adoption is permitted, provided that all of the
amendments are adopted in the same period. The guidance requires application using a retrospective transition method. The Company
is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18,
“Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230) Restricted Cash”. The new guidance requires that the reconciliation of the beginning-of-period
and end-of-period amounts shown in the statement of cash flows include restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents. If restricted
cash is presented separately from cash and cash equivalents on the balance sheet, companies will be required to reconcile the amounts
presented on the statement of cash flows to the amounts on the balance sheet. Companies will also need to disclose information
about the nature of the restrictions. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim
periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.
F-8
In January 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Business
Combinations (Topic 805) Clarifying the Definition of a Business”. The amendments in this Update is to clarify the definition
of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted
for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The definition of a business affects many areas of accounting including
acquisitions, disposals, goodwill, and consolidation. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15,
2017, including interim periods within those periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.
On May 10, 2017, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (“FASB”)issued an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-09
“Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting”, which provides guidance to
clarify when to account for a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award as a modification. Under the
new guidance, modification accounting is required only if the fair value, the vesting conditions, or the classification of
the award (as equity or liability) changes as a result of the change in terms or conditions. The guidance is effective
prospectively for all companies for annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. The
Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN AND
MANAGEMENT’S LIQUIDITY PLANS
As of September 30, 2017,the Company had
an accumulated deficit of $5,056,087 and aworking capital deficiency of $192,685. During the years ended September 30, 2017
and 2016, the Company used cash in operating activities of $18,314 and $200,352, respectively. These conditions raise
substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company recognizes it will need to
raise additional capital in order to fund operations, and meet its payment obligations. There is no assurance that additional
financing will be available when needed or that management will be able to obtain financing on terms acceptable to the
Company and whether the Company will generate revenues, become profitable and generate positive operating cash flow. If the
Company is unable to raise sufficient additional funds on favorable terms, it will have to develop and implement a plan to
further extend payables and to raise capital through the issuance of debt or equity on less favorable terms until sufficient
additional capital is raised to support further operations. There can be no assurance that such a plan will be
successful.
Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated
financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going
concern and the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The carrying amounts
of assets and liabilities presented in the consolidated financial statements do not necessarily represent realizable or settlement
values. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
NOTE 3 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Parties, which can be corporations or individuals,
are considered to be related if they have the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the other party or exercise significant
influence over the other party in making financial and operating decisions. Companies are also considered to be related if they
are subject to common control or common significant influence.
Accounts payable – related parties are
the amounts payable to officers and directors of the Company for reimbursement of expenses they incurred on behalf of the Company
as well as Directors’ fees and salaries. Included in general and administrative expense for the years ended September 30,
2017 and September 30, 2016 are $23,680 and $24,000 of consulting fees, $nil and $24,000 of Directors’ fees, and $nil and
$48,355 of salaries to be paid to officers and directors of the Company, respectively. Included in accounts payable for the years
ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016 are $24,478 and $1,726 of amounts due to a company controlled by an officer of
the Company, respectively.
F-9
NOTE 4 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE
Loan with Trius Holdings Limited
On March 17, 2017, we entered into an agreement
with Trius Holdings Limited (“Trius”). Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Trius acquired a 12% convertible note
with an aggregate face value of $10,000. The note matures in one year. The holder of this note is entitled, at its option, to convert
at the date all or a part of the principal outstanding into shares of the Company’s common stock. This would be at a price
equal to a 20% discount to the closing price of the common stock, on the date of the lender’s notice of conversion, subject
to a floor of $0.01.
Loan with SukhAthwal
On March 30, 2017, we entered into an agreement
with SukhAthwal (“Athwal”). Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, Athwal acquired a 12% convertible note with an
aggregate face value of $10,000. The note matures in one year. The holder of this note is entitled, at its option, to convert at
the date all or a part of the principal outstanding into shares of the Company’s common stock. This would be at a price equal
to a 20% discount to the closing price of the common stock, on the date of the lender’s notice of conversion, subject to
a floor of $0.01.
Total accrued interest on the above notes
was $1,240 as of September 30, 2017 and is reflected in accrued expenses on the accompanying balance sheet. The Company
recorded a loss of $5,000 based on the change in fair value.
NOTE 5 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
The Company had no preferred or common stock
transactions during the years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
NOTE 6 - OPTIONS
No stock options were granted during the years ended September 30,
2017 and 2016.
As per guidance in the ASC Topic 718, Compensation
- Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), we are amortizing the fair value of the options on a straight-line basis over the
requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award as if the award was, in-substance, multiple awards (graded
vesting attribution method).
During the year ended September 30, 2016, officers
holding 4,500,000 options resigned and the options were no longer exercisable. In accordance with ASC 718, previously expensed
equity based compensation which requisite service will not be provided and are forfeited and reversed. As a result, previously
recorded equity based compensation of $1,296,431 was reversed and credited to equity based compensation expense during the year
ended September 30, 2016.

NOTE 7 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
Based upon recent regulatory activity related
to imposition of restrictions and limitations on the sale of hemp-based health products for pets, the Company elected to terminate
our license agreement with the Licensor, effective as of October 1, 2015, and to cease all operations relating to sale of hemp-based
products for pets.
On October 12, 2015, the Company entered into
an agreement for the termination (“Termination Agreement”) of the License Agreement, effectively selling the discontinued
operations. The Termination Agreement contained the following provisions:
• Termination of License: The
parties agreed to terminate the License Agreement effective as of October 1, 2015, this termination was made by mutual
agreement of the parties pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of the License Agreement.
• Return of Licensed
Intellectual Property: We agreed to return all Licensed Intellectual Property to the Licensor, and our right to use all, or
any portion, of the Licensed Intellectual Property ceased effective as of October 1, 2015, pursuant to the terms of the
License Agreement, the Licensed Intellectual Property included the brand name “Canna-Pet” and certain related
intellectual property, including, but not limited, trademarks and copyrights, formulations, recipes, production processes and
systems, websites, domain names, customer lists, supplier lists trade secrets and know- how, and other related intellectual
property.
• Return of Other Property: In
addition to return of the Licensed Intellectual Property, we agreed to transfer to Licensor all product inventory, Colorado
hemp with permits and authorization, all production/fulfillment contracts, all e-commerce accounts and processing, all
non-disclosure and research agreements and any and all other property in our possession which was used by us in the conduct
of our business related to production and sale of medical cannabis products for pets made from hemp and low-THC cannabis
plants.
• Office Space and Equipment: In
conjunction with the execution of the Termination Agreement, we granted the Licensor the right to use our office space, for
the three-month period from October 1, 2015 through December 31, 2015, on a rent-free basis.
• Consideration: As
consideration for the cancellation of the License Agreement and the return of other property, as described above, the
Licensor agreed to waive payment by us and to release us from liability for payment of any and all unpaid royalties, invoices
and other amounts which were otherwise currently due and payable by us to Licensor for sales of Canna-Pet products for all
periods through and including September 30, 2016.
• Collections: On October 15,
2015, we forwarded to the Licensor all payments received by us after September 30, 2015 (net of amounts received by us for
taxes, duties, governmental charges, freight or shipping charges, and the like) for Canna- Pet products sold on or after
October 1, 2015.

The net deferred income tax assets at September
30, 2017 and 2016 were approximately $401,200 and $382,200, respectively.
ASC 740 requires a valuation allowance to reduce
the deferred tax assets reported if, based on the weight of evidence, it is more than likely than not that some portion or all
of the deferred tax assets will not be recognized. After consideration of all the evidence, both positive and negative, management
has determined that a full valuation allowance at September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, is necessary to reduce the deferred
tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. The change in valuation allowance for the current year is
$16,800.
As of September 30, 2017, we have a net
operating loss carry forwards of approximately $1,081,300 (2016: $1,030,100). The loss will be available to offset future
taxable income. If not used, the secarry forwards will expire in varying amounts through 2037.
There are open statutes of limitations for
taxing authorities in federal and state jurisdictions to audit our tax returns from 2011 through the current period. Our policy
is to account for income tax related interest and penalties in income tax expense in the statement of operations. There have been
no income tax related interest or penalties assessed or recorded.
ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold
and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken
in a tax return. This pronouncement also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting
in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.
For the years ended September 30, 2017 and
2016 we did not have any interest and penalties associated with tax positions. As of September 30, 2017, we did not have any significant
unrecognized uncertain tax positions.
NOTE 11 – RECLASSIFICATION OF COMPARATIVE
FIGURES
Certain prior year amounts included in the
consolidated statements of operations have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Such reclassifications
had no impact on previously reported net loss.
