Pursuant to a Common Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company purchased Trace Analytics at a purchase price of $2.40 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $1,250,000, of which $750,000 was paid in cash and $500,000 was paid through the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock. Trace Analytics is a cannabis testing laboratory acquired to enable the Company to position itself as the leading provider of testing solutions for CBD products for both compliance requirements and consumer safety as these products continue to increase in popularity. Immediately following the purchase, the Company holds 51% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Trace Analytics. The Common Stock Purchase Agreement included the option for Trace to repurchase 205,410 shares of Common Stock based on the occurrence of certain Repurchase Triggering Events. Based on a review of the Repurchase Triggering Events, it is considered unlikely that any of the events will occur. Additionally, the Company entered into a Voting Agreement with Trace concurrent with the Common Stock Purchase Agreement. The Voting Agreement provided for the designation of three out of five positions on the Trace Analytics Board of Directors by the Company. The Voting Agreement also detailed certain transactions that require two-thirds approval by the Board of Directors. The Voting Agreement is not considered to impact the ability of the Company to control the operations and assets of Trace Analytics.

The Company has included the financial results of Trace Analytics in the consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition, January 1, 2019. The purchase price for Trace Analytics was $1,250,000. Based on management’s analysis of the acquisition transaction pursuant to the provisions of ASC 805, the Company determined that any customer lists or business licenses held by Trace Analytics are immaterial in relation to the overall value of Trace; additionally, Trace Analytics does not hold any patents or proprietary technology, and does not have long-term contractual arrangements with customers. As such, there are no separately identifiable intangible assets meeting the criteria of ASC 805. Concurrently, the Company preliminarily allocated the $1,941,149 excess of the purchase price over the identifiable net assets of $509,831 to goodwill.

Going Concern

 

Our auditors have issued a "going concern" opinion, meaning that there is substantial doubt if we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital. No substantial revenues are anticipated until we implement our plan of operations. With the exceptionuses of cash advances fromhave been primarily for strategic investments we made, including the purchase of Trace Analytics, and operations and marketing efforts to promote our sole Officerproducts and Director,company. Our principal sources of liquidity have been cash provided by financing, primarily through the sale of equity securities and issuance of convertible notes. We anticipate that significant additional expenditures will be necessary to expand and bring to market our products and investments before sufficient and consistent positive operating cash flows will be achieved. As such, we must raise cashanticipate that additional funds will be needed to implementcontinue operations, obtain profitability and to achieve our strategy and stay in business.

As of March 31, 2016, we had $2,191 in cash as compared to $Nil in cash for the year ended March 31, 2015.objectives. As of the date of this Form 10-K, statement,our cash resources are insufficient to meet our current operating expense requirements and planned business objectives beyond the currentdate of this Form 10-K filing without additional financing.

As reflected in the consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere is this Form 10-K, as of March 31, 2019 we had cash on hand and had an accumulated deficit of $47,044 and $5,531,260, respectively, and during our fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, we utilized cash for operations and incurred a net loss of $905,051 and $2,679,022, respectively. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Further, our independent auditors in their audit report for our fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to raise additional capital and to ultimately achieve sustainable revenues and income from our operations. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, we raised $1,529,455 through the issuance of convertible notes and $75,000 through the receipt of Subscription Agreements (“Subscription”) where we sold shares of our common stock to accredited investors. As of March 31, 2019, we had cash on hand of $47,044. We estimate that such funds available to the Company will not be sufficient to fund the expenses related its reporting status.

Plan of Operation

FIRST FIXTURES, INC. is a company that intendscontinue operations without obtaining additional funds. As such, we are currently working on obtaining additional funds to market and sell its planned products through its' intended website. The Company has not yet implemented its business model and to date and has generated no revenues. It is the Company's intention to provide its customers with the quality kitchen and bathroom fixtures. The Company's target market will be home builders or home owners that have an interest in home renovations.

We require additional financing to implement our Plan of Operation and sustain business operations. Currently, we do not have any arrangements for financing and we may be unable to obtain financing when required. Obtaining additional financing would be subject to a number of factors, including the Company's ability to attract customers. The Company may be unable to access to capital markets in the future or that financing, adequate to satisfy the cash requirements of implementingoperate our business strategies,through and beyond the date of this Form 10-K filing. However, there can be no assurance that such funds will be available or at terms acceptable to us. Even if we are able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions and covenants on acceptable terms. The inabilityour operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders in the Company to gain access to capital markets or obtain acceptable financing could have a material adverse effect upon the resultscase of its operationsconvertible debt and upon its financial conditions.equity financing.

Over the next 12-month period, our Company must raise capital to introduce its planned products and start sales. We intend to market our products on the Internet. We have two planned phases to our operations over the next twelve months.Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

The Company requires a minimumUse of $25,000 to implement its business plan. Estimates

 

The Company intends to store and make delivery to customers its planned inventoryFinancial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at fulfillment service providers like Expert Fulfillment, eCommerce Fulfillmentthe date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Among other things, estimates include the collectability of accounts receivable, recoverability of inventory, assumptions made in determining impairment of investments and intangible, useful life of our intangible, and accruals for potential liabilities. These estimates generally involve complex issues and require judgments, involve analysis of historical information and the prediction of future trends, and are subject to change from period to period. Actual amounts could differ significantly from these estimates. 

Investments

Through March 31, 2018, we used either the equity method or Shipwire.the cost method of accounting. We used the equity method for unconsolidated equity investments in which we were considered to have significant influence over the operations of the investee. We used the cost method for all other investments. Under the cost method, there is no change to the cost basis unless there is an other-than-temporary decline in value or dividends are received. If the decline is determined to be other-than-temporary, we would write down the cost basis of the investment to a new cost basis that represents realizable value.

On April 1, 2018, we adopted ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. ASU 2016-01 primarily affects equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. Among other things, this new guidance requires certain equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. As such, we now measure our equity investments at their fair value at end of each reporting period.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination.  The companyCompany evaluates goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events and changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company conducts its annual impairment analysis in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year. Impairment of goodwill is tested at the reporting unit level by comparing the reporting unit’s carrying amount, including goodwill, to the fair value of the reporting unit. Estimations and assumptions regarding the number of reporting units, future performances, results of the Company’s operations and comparability of its market capitalization and net book value will be used. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, goodwill is considered impaired and an impairment loss is measured by the resulting amount. Because the Company has not contracted with any fulfillment service providers. one reporting unit, as part of the Company’s qualitative assessment an entity-wide approach to assess goodwill for impairment is utilized. No impairment losses have been recorded in the fiscal years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.  The Company has currently recorded goodwill of $1,941,089 representing the excess of purchase consideration over the fair value of net tangible assets in the acquisition of Trace Analytics.  This is considered a provisional allocation of the purchase price and is subject to adjustment as additional information is obtained through the purchase price measurement period (a period of up to one year from the closing date of January 1, 2019).

Business Combinations

 

The first phaseCompany accounts for its business combinations using the purchase method of our planed operations will beaccounting where the cost is allocated to secure the servicesunderlying net tangible and intangible assets acquired, based on their respective fair values. The excess of specialiststhe purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree are recognized and measured as of the acquisition date at fair value. Additionally, contingent consideration, if any. is recorded at fair value on the acquisition date and classified as a liability. Goodwill is recognized to develop our logothe extent by which the aggregate of the acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred and website. Estimated cost for logo development is $10,000. Estimated cost for website development is $8,000. In addition,any noncontrolling interest in the Company plans to purchase two lap top computers, a printer/fax, a photocopieracquiree exceeds the recognized basis of the identifiable assets acquired, net of assumed liabilities. Determining the fair value of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and noncontrolling interests requires management’s judgment and often involves the requisite office supplyuse of significant estimates and stationary at an estimated cost of $7,300. The company anticipates the first phase of our planed operations to be completed within 120 days of receiving investment capital. Initial inventory will consist of product numbers M11020-528C Faucet, P25005 Hand Shower, M11300-119 Popular Faucet, Model 126 American Basin Mixer, M11205 Hot Basin Mixer, M12308-124 Unique Gold Faucet, and M92300-119 Rain Shower Mixer. Once the amount of investment capital has been determined, the mix of product and related quantities will be decided upon. 


For the second phase of our planed operations, we intend to engage the services of an internet advertising and search engine specialist at an estimated cost of $6,000 for search engine optimization and an estimated cost of $12,000 for online advertising. The Company intends to enter into a supply agreement with Zhejiang Momali Sanitary Utensils Co., Ltd. and purchase its initial inventory at an estimated cost of $34,450. The company anticipates the second phase of our planned operations to be completed within 240 days of receiving investment capital. We anticipate generating revenues within 360 days of receiving investment capital.

If $25,000 of financing is raised, the Company intends to scale back its planned inventory purchase and travel expenses to $4,000 and $1,000 respectively, eliminating the logo development expense and reducing the website development expense to $6,000 and minimize online advertising and search engine optimization expenses to $3,000 and $2,200 respectively and reducing our administrative expense to $1,550.

If $50,000 of financing is raised, the Company intends to scale back its planned inventory purchase and travel expenses to $11,350 and $5,000 respectively, reducing the logo development expense to $5,000 and reducing the website development expense to $6,000, Furthermore, the Company will minimize online advertising and search engine optimization expenses to $7,000 and $3,600 respectively and reducing our administrative expense to $4,800.

In our opinion the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of First Fixtures, Inc. as of March 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of its operations and cash flows for each of the years in the two year period ended March 31, 2016, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles./s/ Weinberg & Company, P.A.

  

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that theWeinberg & Company, will continue as a going concern. The Company has generated no revenues from its business operations, has incurred operating losses since inception and will need additional working capital to service its debt and for its planned activity, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are described in NoteP.A.

MARCH 31, 2019 AND 2018

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONSORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Description of the Company

 

Applied BioSciences Corp. (formerly First Fixtures, Inc. and Stony Hill Corp. or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada as a for-profit Company on February 21, 2014 and established a fiscal year end of March 31. The Company is organized to sell plumbing fixtures overa vertically integrated company focused on the internet.development of science-driven cannabinoid therapeutics / biopharmaceuticals, and delivering high-quality CBD products as well as state-of-the-art testing and analytics capabilities.

 

Going concern

To date the Company has generated no revenues from its business operations and has incurred operating losses since inception of $46,936. As at March 31,Effective October 24, 2016 the Company haschanged its name from First Fixtures Inc. to Stony Hill Corp and on March 6, 2018, the Company changed its name from Stony Hill Corp. to Applied BioSciences Corp.

In January 2019, the Company closed on a purchase of 520,410 shares of common stock of Trace Analytics, Inc., a Washington corporation (“Trace Analytics”), for an aggregate purchase price of $1,250,000, of which $750,000 was paid in cash and $500,000 was paid in shares of common stock of the Company. Trace Analytics is a cannabis testing laboratory. Immediately following the purchase, the Company holds 51% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Trace Analytics.

Going concern

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. As reflected in the consolidated financial statements, during the year ended March 31, 2019 the Company incurred a net loss of $2,679,022 and used $905,051 of cash in operating activities, and had a working capital deficitdeficiency of $38,846.$19,807 as of March 31, 2019. These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. The Company will require additional funding to meet its ongoing obligations and to fund anticipated operating losses. The ability offinancial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional capital and to ultimately achieve sustainable revenues and income from operations. During the fiscal period ended March 31, 2019, the Company sold 37,500 shares of its common stock to accredited investors at a price of $2.00 per share for total proceeds of $75,000 and issued convertible notes for total proceeds of approximately $1,600,000 both in private placements to accredited investors. However, the Company will need and is currently working on raising capitalobtaining additional funds to fundoperate its initial business planthrough and ultimately to attain profitable operations. Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt asbeyond the date of this Form 10-K filing. There is no assurance that such funds will be available or at terms acceptable to the Company's abilityCompany. Even if the Company is able to continue as a going concern. The Company intends to continue to fundobtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions and covenants on its business by wayoperations, in the case of private placementsdebt financing or cause substantial dilution for its stockholders in the case of convertible debt and advances from related parties as may be required. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.equity financing.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Applied Products LLC, VitaCBD LLC, an 80% owned entity, Trace Analytics, Inc., a 51% owned entity, all Washington limited liability companies, and SHL Management LLC, a 100% owned entity, a Nevada limited liability company. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Management evaluates its investments on an individual basis for purposes of determining whether or not consolidation is appropriate.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

 

Preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Accordingly, actual resultsAmong other things, management estimates include the collectability of its accounts receivable, recoverability of inventory, estimates of fair value of equity investments, assumptions made in determining purchase price allocation, impairment of investments and intangible assets, accruals for potential liabilities, and realization of deferred tax assets. These estimates generally involve complex issues and require judgments, involve analysis of historical information and the prediction of future trends, and are subject to change from period to period. Actual amounts could differ significantly from thosethese estimates.

 

Cash and Cash EquivalentsFair Value of Financial Instruments

 

For purposesThe Company follows paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the statementFASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of cash flows, the Company considers highly liquidits financial instruments purchased withand paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a maturityframework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three months or less to be cash equivalents.(3) broad levels. The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:

 

Level 1

Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.

Level 2

Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.

Level 3

Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data.

Financial Instrumentsassets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE FISCAL YEARS ENDED

MARCH 31, 2019 AND 2018

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenue is principally derived from its subsidiaries, Applied Products LLC, and Trace Analytics.

·Applied Products LLC revenues are generated from sales of high-quality CBD products for consumer and pet health and wellness. Sales of these products were made to individual distributors and through online channels. Revenue from the sale of these products was $543,970 and $197,554 during the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively

·Trace Analytics generates revenue from services by offering state-of-the-art testing and analytics capabilities to CBD and hemp companies. Sales of these services are to marijuana producers and processors, dispensaries, and CBD and hemp companies. Revenue from the sale of these services was $163,092 during the years ended March 31, 2019. There were no such sales during the previous period.

Prior to April 1, 2018, the Company recognized its revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 605 Revenue Recognition , upon the delivery of its services or products when: (1) delivery had occurred or services rendered; (2) persuasive evidence of an arrangement existed; (3) there are no continuing obligations to the customer; and (4) the collection of related accounts receivable was probable.

Effective April 1, 2018 the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASC 606”) which superseded previous revenue recognition guidance. The underlying principle of ASC 606 is to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at the amount expected to be collected. ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contracts, which includes (1) identifying the contracts or agreements with a customer, (2) identifying the Company’s performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the services it transfers to its clients. The Company has concluded that the new guidance did not require any significant change to its revenue recognition processes and the implementation of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Shipping Cost

The Company recognizes amounts billed to a customer in a sale transaction related to shipping as revenue. The costs incurred by the Company for shipping are classified as cost of revenue in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Advertising

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense for the fiscal periods ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 amounted to $541,873 and $160,295, respectively, and were included in "Sales and marketing expenses" in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined principally on a first-in-first-out average cost basis. Inventories consist of finished goods held for sale. Management regularly reviews inventory quantities on-hand and records an inventory provision for excess or obsolete inventory based on the future expected demand for our products. Inventory write-downs are measured as the difference between the cost of the inventory and market value, based upon assumptions about future demand that are inherently difficult to assess. There was no provision for inventory obsolescence necessary as of March 31, 2019 and 2018.

MARCH 31, 2019 AND 2018

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, net of allowances for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of accounts. The Company regularly reviews the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts by considering the age of each outstanding invoice and the collection history of each customer to determine whether a specific allowance is appropriate. Accounts receivable deemed uncollectible are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts when identified. As of March 31, 2018, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $2,227. The Company did not deem it necessary to provide an allowance for doubtful accounts as of March 31, 2019.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The Company uses an estimated useful life of three years for employee-related computers and software, three years for other office equipment and computer hardware, and five years for machinery and furniture. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the lease-term or the estimated useful life of the related asset.

Management regularly reviews property and equipment and other long-lived assets for possible impairment. This review occurs annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Based upon management’s annual assessment, there were no indicators of impairment of the Company’s property and equipment and other long-lived assets as of March 31, 2019.

Earnings (Loss) per Common Share

 

The basic earnings (loss) per share areis calculated by dividing the Company'sCompany’s net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the year.period. Shares of common stock to be issued are included in weighted average shares calculation from the date of grant. The diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Company'sCompany’s net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year.period. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted average number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are the same as basic earnings (loss) per share due to the lack of dilutive itemsitems.

Investments

Through March 31, 2018, the Company used either the equity method or the cost method of accounting. The Company used the equity method for unconsolidated equity investments in which the Company was considered to have significant influence over the operations of the investee. The Company used the cost method for all other investments. Under the cost method, there is no change to the cost basis unless there is an other-than-temporary decline in value or dividends are received. If the decline is determined to be other-than-temporary, the Company writes down the cost basis of the investment to a new cost basis that represents realizable value.

On April 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. ASU 2016-01 primarily affects equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option, and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. Among other things, this new guidance requires certain equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. As such, the Company measures its equity investments at their fair value at end of each reporting period.

Investments accounted for under the equity method or cost method of accounting above are included in the Company. Ascaption "Equity investments" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

FOR THE FISCAL YEARS ENDED

MARCH 31, 2019 AND 2018

Intangible Asset

Intangible assets are recorded when such assets are acquired and are amortized over the estimated useful life of the intangible asset. The Company regularly reviews intangible assets to determine if facts and circumstances indicate that the useful lives have changed from the original estimate or that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. If such facts and circumstances exist, the Company assesses the recoverability of identified intangible assets by comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their remaining lives against their respective carrying amounts. Impairments, if any, are based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets and occur in the period in which the impairment determination was made.

On February 23, 2017, the Company consummated an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with mCig, Inc. for the purchase of the VitaCBD brand name. In connection with the Agreement, the Company recorded intangible assets of $1,138,135. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 20162018, sales of the VitaCBD products did not meet management’s expectations and 2015, there were no common stock equivalents outstanding.the Company was not able to achieve the expected operating results. As a result, the Company impaired the intangible asset related to the acquisition of the VitaCBD brand name and recorded an impairment charge of $893,667.

 

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination. During the year ended March 31, 2019, the Company recorded goodwill of $1,941,149 related to the purchase of Trace Analytics (see Note5). The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events and changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company conducts its annual impairment analysis in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year. Impairment of goodwill is tested at the reporting unit level by comparing the reporting unit’s carrying amount, including goodwill, to the fair value of the reporting unit. Estimations and assumptions regarding the number of reporting units, future performances, results of the Company’s operations and comparability of its market capitalization and net book value will be used. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, goodwill is considered impaired and an impairment loss is measured by the resulting amount. Because the Company has one reporting unit, as part of the Company’s qualitative assessment an entity-wide approach to assess goodwill for impairment is utilized. No impairment losses have been recorded in the fiscal years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company periodically issues stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions, for services and for financing costs. The Company accounts for share-based payments under the guidance as set forth in the Share-Based Payment Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees, officers, directors, and consultants, including employee stock options, based on estimated fair values. The Company estimates the fair value of share-based payment awards to employees and directors on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model, and the value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the required service period in the Company’s statements of operations. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with the authoritative guidance whereas the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Stock-based compensation is based on awards ultimately expected to vest and is reduced for estimated forfeitures. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, as necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

Business Combinations

 The Company accounts for its business combinations using the purchase method of accounting where the cost is allocated to the underlying net tangible and intangible assets acquired, based on their respective fair values. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree are recognized and measured as of the acquisition date at fair value. Additionally, contingent consideration, if any. is recorded at fair value on the acquisition date and classified as a liability. Goodwill is recognized to the extent by which the aggregate of the acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree exceeds the recognized basis of the identifiable assets acquired, net of assumed liabilities. Determining the fair value of assets acquired, liabilities assumed and noncontrolling interests requires management’s judgment and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions.

Income Taxes

 

The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax balances and tax loss carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are

measured using enacted or substantially enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment or substantive enactment.

Segments

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)                The Company operates in one segment for the distribution of products and services. In accordance with the “Segment Reporting” Topic of the ASC, the Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. Existing guidance, which is based on a management approach to segment reporting, establishes requirements to report selected segment information quarterly and to report annually entity-wide disclosures about products and services, major customers, and the countries in which the entity holds material assets and reports revenue. All material operating units qualify for aggregation under “Segment Reporting” due to their similar customer base and similarities in: economic characteristics; nature of products and services; and procurement, manufacturing and distribution processes. Since the Company operates in one segment, all financial information required by “Segment Reporting” can be found in the accompanying consolidated financial statements

Accounts receivable. At March 31, 2019, one customer of the Company follows ASC 718-10, "Stock Compensation"represented 49% of its accounts receivable.  At March 31, 2018, one customer of the Company represented 81% of its accounts receivable.

Accounts payable. On March 31, 2019, accounts payable to the Company’s largest vendor represented 52%.  There was no vendor that represented 10% or more of the Company’s accounts payable balance on March 31, 2018.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases, which addresseswas subsequently amended in 2018 by ASU 2018-10, ASU 2018-11 and ASU 2018-20 (collectively, Topic 842). Topic 842 will require the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, withrecognition of a primary focus on transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. ASC 718-10 isright-of-use asset and a revision to SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," and supersedes Accounting Principles Board ("APB") OpinionNo. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and its related implementation guidance. ASC 718-10 requires measurement ofcorresponding lease liability, initially measured at the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fairpresent value of the award (with limited exceptions). Incremental compensation costs arisinglease payments, for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. For operating leases, the asset and liability will be expensed over the lease term on a straight-line basis, with all cash flows included in the operating section of the statement of cash flows. For finance leases, interest on the lease liability will be recognized separately from subsequent modificationsthe amortization of awardsthe right-of-use asset in the statement of comprehensive income and the repayment of the principal portion of the lease liability will be classified as a financing activity while the interest component will be included in the operating section of the statement of cash flows. Topic 842 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, leases will be recognized and measured at the grant date mustbeginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. Topic 842 allows for a cumulative-effect adjustment in the period the new lease standard is adopted and will not require restatement of prior periods. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of Topic 842 on the Company’s financial statements and disclosures, though the adoption is expected to result in a material increase in the assets and liabilities reflected on the Company’s balance sheets.

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features. ASU 2017-11 allows companies to exclude a down round feature when determining whether a financial instrument (or embedded conversion feature) is considered indexed to the entity’s own stock. As a result, financial instruments (or embedded conversion features) with down round features may no longer be recognized. Asrequired to be accounted for as derivative liabilities. A company will recognize the value of March 31, 2016a down round feature only when it is triggered and the Company had not adopted a stock option plan nor had it granted any stock options. Accordingly no stock-based compensationstrike price has been recordedadjusted downward. For equity-classified freestanding financial instruments, an entity will treat the value of the effect of the down round as a dividend and a reduction of income available to date.common shareholders in computing basic earnings per share. For convertible instruments with embedded conversion features containing down round provisions, entities will recognize the value of the down round as a beneficial conversion discount to be amortized to earnings. The guidance in ASU 2017-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, and the guidance is to be applied using a full or modified retrospective approach. The Company plans to adopt ASU 2017-11 on April 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2017-11 is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures because the conversion feature of the Company’s warrants have features other than down round provisions that require the current accounting treatment and classification.

Our Chief Executive Officer has concluded, based on his evaluation, that as of March 31, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the end of the fiscal year to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit with the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the President and Secretary, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as required by Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Section 404 A. The Company's internal(as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Internal control over financial reporting is a process, designed under the supervision of the Company's Chief Executive Officerincluding policies and Chief Financial Officerprocedures, designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company's financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Management Our management assessed the effectiveness of the Company'sour internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in SEC guidance on conducting such assessments as2013 version of the end of the period covered by this report. Management conducted the assessment based on certain criteria established in Internal Control - Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.Commission (COSO). Based on the results of this assessment, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of March 31, 2016.

2019 based on such criteria. Deficiencies 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. The matters involving internal controls and procedures that the Company'sour management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (1)(i) lack of a functioning audit committeemajority of independent members and a lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company's board of directors,our Board, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2)and (ii) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; (3) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (4) ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by the Company's Chief Financial Officer in connection with the audit of our financial statements as of March 31, 2016 and communicated the matters to our management.

objectives. Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth in items (2), (3) and (4) above did not have an affect on the Company's financial results. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company's board of directors, resultingour Board results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, canwhich could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods.

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the Company's determinationobjectives of the control system are met under all potential conditions, regardless of how remote, and may not prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. 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 prevented or detected. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to itsprovide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for the future years.external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

We are committed to improving our financial organization. As part of this commitment, we will create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and will increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function when funds are available to the Company: i) Appointing one or more outside directors to our board of directors who shall be appointed to the audit committee of the Company resulting in a fully functioning audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; and ii) Preparing and implementing sufficient written policies and checklists which will set forth procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.

Management believes that the appointment of one or more outside directors, who shall be appointed to a fully functioning audit committee, will remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee and a lack of a majority of outside directorsAuditor’s Report on the Company's Board. In addition, management believes that preparing and implementing sufficient written policies and checklists will remedy the following material weaknesses (i) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (ii) ineffective controlsInternal Control over period end financial close and reporting processes. Further, management believes that the hiring of additional personnel who have the technical expertise and knowledge will result proper segregation of duties and provide more checks and balances within the department. Additional personnel will also provide the cross training needed to support the Company if personnel turn over issues within the department occur. This coupled with the appointment of additional outside directors will greatly decrease any control and procedure issues the company may encounter in the future.

We will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.Financial Reporting

Term of Office

All directors hold office until the next annual meeting of the stockholders of the Company and until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. The Company’s Bylaws provide that the Board of Directors will consist of no less than three members. Officers are elected by and serve at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

Certain Legal Proceedings

No director, nominee for director, or executive officer of the Company has appeared as a party in any legal proceeding material to an evaluation of his ability or integrity during the past ten years.

Significant Employees and Consultants

As of March 31, 2019, the Company has no significant employees, other than its officers and directors acting in such capacity.

Audit Committee and Conflicts Of Interest

Since we do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors, the functions that would have been performed by such committees are performed by our directors. The Board of Directors has not established an audit committee and does not have an audit committee financial expert, nor has the Board of Directors established a nominating committee. The Board is of the opinion that such committees are not necessary since the Company is an early business development stage company and has only four directors, and to date, such directors have been performing the functions of such committees. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our directors and officers have the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation, nominations, and audit issues that may affect management decisions.

There are no family relationships among our directors or officers. Other than as described above, we are not aware of any other conflicts of interest with any of our executive officers or directors.

Section 16(A) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities, file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Executive officers, directors and greater-than-ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with all Section 16(a) forms they file. Based on our review of filings made on the SEC website, and the fact of us not receiving certain forms or written representations from certain reporting persons that they have complied with the relevant filing requirements, we believe that, during the year ended March 31, 2019, all of our executive officers, directors and greater-than-ten percent stockholders complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements.

Stockholder Communications with the Board Of Directors

We have not implemented a formal policy or procedure by which our stockholders can communicate directly with our Board of Directors. Nevertheless, every effort has been made to ensure that the views of stockholders are heard by the Board of Directors or individual directors, as applicable, and that appropriate responses are provided to stockholders in a timely manner. We believe that we are responsive to stockholder communications, and therefore have not considered it necessary to adopt a formal process for stockholder communications with our Board. During the upcoming year, our Board will continue to monitor whether it would be appropriate to adopt such a process.

Code of Ethics

The Company has not adopted a code of ethics that applies to its principal executive officers, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions.

The opening price per share of the Company’s common stock on the OTCQB on May 1, 2019 was $1.23 per share. One-third (1/3) of the Option vests on each of the following dates: (i) May 31, 2019, (ii) April 1, 2020, and (iii) April 1, 2021.

The Employment Agreement also provides that the Company shall grant Dr. Urbanski a non-qualified stock option (the “Second Option”) an additional 3% of “the Company’s fully diluted common stock,” at an exercise price equal to the “fair market value of the shares at the start of trading” on the date of the Agreement, which is May 1, 2019.

One-third (1/3) of the Option vests upon the occurrence of each of the following events: (i) the Company “raised a combined $3,000,000”, (ii) “opening of the first IND with the FDA, or equivalent ex-US”, and (iii) the “Company being listed on a National Exchange.”

Director Independence

 

Our board of directorsBoard is currently composed of one member, Colin Povall, who doesfour members. Our Common Stock is not currently listed for trading on a national securities exchange and, as such, we are not subject to any director independence standards. However, we have determined that none of our directors would qualify as an independent director in accordance with the published listing requirements of the NASDAQ Global Market. The NASDAQ independence definition includes a series of objective tests, such as that the director is not, and has not been for at least three years, one of our employees and that neither the director, nor any of his family members has engaged in various types of business dealings with us. In addition, our board of directors has not made a subjective determination as to each director that no relationships exist which, in the opinion of our board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director, though such subjective determination is required by the NASDAQ rules. Had our board of directors made these determinations, our board of directors would have reviewed and discussed information provided by the directors and us with regard to each director'sdirector’s business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to us and our management.

 

Conflicts of Interest

At the present time, the company does not foresee any direct conflict between Mr. Povall's' other business interests and his involvement in FIRST FIXTURES, INC.
