Competition and Market Conditions
We will face substantial competition in our efforts to identify and pursue a business venture. The primary source of competition is expected to be from other companies organized and funded for similar purposes, including small venture capital firms, blank check companies, and wealthy investors, many of which may have substantially greater financial and other resources than we do. In light of our limited financial and human resources, we are at a competitive disadvantage compared to many of our competitors in our efforts to obtain an operating business or assets necessary to commence our operations in a new field. Additionally, with the economic downturn caused by the coronavirus pandemic, many venture capital firms and similar firms and individuals have been seeking to acquire businesses at discounted rates, and we therefore currently face additional competition and resultant difficulty obtaining a business. We expect these conditions to persist at least until such time as the economy recovers. Further, even if we are successful in obtaining a business or assets for new operations, we expect there to be enhanced barriers to entry in the process of settling the note with Catalyst whereby funds usedmarketplace in which we decide to satisfy the note are being provided by its Chief Executive Officer, Steven J. Keough whereas Mr. Keough will be effectively purchasing the 8,000,000 common shares in the Company and the Arax Holdings Corp receivable (listed on the books of the Companyoperate as a related party payable inresult of reduced demand and/or increased raw material costs caused by the amount of $152,562 for the year ended October 31, 2016) in exchange for extinguishing the note.

However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a defendant in a lawsuit filed by AMERIFINANCIAL, INC. (“AMERIFINANCIAL”), of Houston, Texas. The action related primarily to a contract dispute between AMERIFINANCIAL and our majority shareholder, THRU PHARMA, LLC. The dispute did not allege any actions or inactions by our officers or representatives actingmaterial adverse effect on our behalf.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULT OF OPERATIONS
The Company has no operations or belief concerning future events that involverevenue as of October 31, 2022. We are currently in the process of developing a business plan. Management intends to explore and identify viable business opportunities within the U.S. including seeking to acquire a business in a reverse merger. Our ability to effectively identify, develop and implement a viable plan for our business may be hindered by risks and uncertainties. Our actions, results and performance could differ materially from what is contemplated byuncertainties which are beyond our control, including without limitation, the forward-looking statements contained in this Report. Factors that might cause differences from the forward-looking statements include those referred to or identified in our Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the SEC on April 25, 2013 and other factors that may be identified elsewhere in this Report. Reference should be made to such factors and all forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by the above cautionary statements.
Plan of Operation
The discussion, including known trends and uncertainties identified by management, should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this Report. Our audited financial statements are stated in United States Dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.
Management believesintends to explore and identify business opportunities within the U.S. and Europe, including a potential acquisition of an operating entity through a reverse merger, asset purchase or similar transaction.

We have not been issued byengaged in any business activities that provided revenue or cash flow. During the Company.next 12-month period we anticipate incurring costs in connection with investigating, evaluating, and negotiating potential business combinations, filing SEC reports, and consummating an acquisition of an operating business. The Company will issue these shares once it becomes fully reporting.
Given our limited capital resources, we may consider a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Catalyst SPA”). The transactionbusiness combination with an entity which has recently commenced operations, is secured by a grantdeveloping company or is otherwise in need of security interestadditional funds for the development of new products or services or expansion into new markets, or is an established business experiencing financial or operating difficulties and is in need of additional capital. Alternatively, a business combination may involve the acquisition of, or merger with, an entity which desires access to 100% of the Company stock held by or for Thru Pharma. The Catalyst Note and Catalyst SPA are intended to facilitate funding essential work relating to multi-year auditing of Thru Pharma financials. The total available funds are $200,000, and Thru Pharma has only drawn $75,000. A Commitment Fee of Company stock in the amount of 35,294 shares was authorized for issue to Catalyst as part of the transaction. In the event that Thru Pharma is unable to timely make payments under this Agreement, Catalyst has the option of gaining control of the Thru Pharma shares in the Company.
As of the date of this report remains unchanged.
Our management anticipates that we will likely only be successfulable to effect one business combination due to our limited capital. This lack of diversification will likely pose a substantial risk in investing in the Company for the indefinite future because it will not permit us to offset potential losses from one venture or operating territory against gains from another. The risks we face will likely be heightened to the extent we acquire a business operating in a single industry or geographical region.
We anticipate that the selection of a business combination will be a complex and risk-prone process. Because of general economic conditions, including unfavorable conditions caused by the coronavirus pandemic, rapid technological advances being made in some industries and shortages of available capital, management believes that there are a number of firms seeking business opportunities at this time at discounted rates with which we will compete. We expect that any potentially available business combinations may appear in a variety of different industries or anyregions and at various stages of our endeavors or become financially viabledevelopment, all of which will likely render the task of comparative investigation and continue as a going concern.
Based upon our current operations, we do not have sufficient working capital to fund our operations over the next 12 months. If we are able to close a reverse merger, it is likely we will need capital as our business grows.a condition of closing that acquisition. Because of the uncertainties, we cannot be certain as to how much capital we need to raise or the type of securities we will be required to issue. In connection with our business plan, management anticipates additional increases in operating expenses and capital expenditures relating to: (i) personnel; (ii) developmental expenses associated with a start-up business; and (iii) marketing expenses. We expect that working capital requirementsreverse merger, we will be funded through advances or payables on our behalf from Thru Pharma, and through further issuancesrequired to issue a controlling block of our securities.
Additional issuances of equity or issuances of convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current shareholders. Further, such securities might have rights, preferences, or privileges senior to our common stock.Common Stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to implementtake advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business plan.operations.

We anticipate that we will incur operating losses in the next 12 months, principally costs related to our being obligated to file reports with the SEC. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of development. Such risks for us include, but are not limited to, an evolving and unpredictable business model, recognition of revenue sources, and the management of growth. To address these risks, we must, among other things, develop, implement, and successfully execute our business and marketing strategy, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain, and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.
COVID-19 Update
To date, the COVID-19 pandemic has not had a material impact on the Company, particularly due to our current lack of operations. The pandemic may, however, have an impact on our ability to evaluate and acquire an operating entity through a reverse merger or otherwise. See Item 1A “Risk Factors” for more information.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of the date of this Annual Report, we do not have any material commitments.

Our audit 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 audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments.
We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

COVID-19
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) declared the Covid-19 outbreak to be a global pandemic. In addition to the devastating effects on human life, the pandemic is having a negative ripple effect on the global economy, leading to disruptions and volatility in the global financial markets.

NOTE 32 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars. The Company has adopted an October 31 fiscal year end.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business for the twelve months following the date of these financial statements. The Company has incurred operating losses since its inception. As of October 31, 2021, the Company had a working capital deficit of $26,012 and an accumulated deficit of $730,393.
Because the Company does not expect that existing operational cash flow will be sufficient to fund presently anticipated operations, this raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Therefore, the Company will need to raise additional funds and is currently exploring alternative sources of financing. The Company is currently being funded by a company related to Michael Pieter Loubser. The Company will be required to continue to rely on this entity until its operations become profitable.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US 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 statementsstatements. The most significant estimates relate to income taxes and contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known or expected trends, and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable given the reported amountquality of revenuesinformation available as of the date of these financial statements. The results of these assumptions provide the basis for making estimates about the carrying amounts of assets and expenses during the reporting period.liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from thosethese estimates.
