1. | Organization and Nature of Business |
Description of Business
Naked Brand Group Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 17, 2005, as Search By Headlines.com Corp. with 100,000,000 authorized common shares with a par value of $0.001 per share. On July 30, 2012, the Company closed an Acquisition Agreement with Naked Inc. (“Naked”) whereby Naked’s owners became the sole directors of the Company and Naked stockholders exchanged their shares for a total of 13.5 million shares of the Company, representing 50% of the Company (the “Acquisition”). On the same date, the entire management of Naked became the entire management of the Company. Effective August 29, 2012, the Company completed a merger with a subsidiary, Naked Brand Group Inc., a Nevada corporation, which was incorporated solely to effect a change of name. As a result, the Company changed its name from “Search By Headlines.com Corp.” to “Naked Brand Group Inc.”.
Naked was incorporated under the federal laws of Canada on May 21, 2009 as In Search of Solutions Inc. and changed its corporate name on May 17, 2010 to Naked Boxer Brief Clothing Inc. On February 20, 2013, Naked changed its name to Naked Inc. Naked commenced business operations on February 1, 2010 as a manufacturer and seller of direct and wholesale undergarments in Canada to consumers and retailers and has been realizing revenues from its operations since September, 2010.
As a result of the Acquisition, Naked became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the Company’s business became the manufacture and sales of direct and wholesale undergarments in Canada and the United States to consumers and retailers. The Company operates out of Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada.
Going Concern
These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its obligations and commitments in the normal course of operations. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
As at April 30, 2014, the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations, had a working capital deficiency, and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, which casts substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. To remain a going concern, the Company will be required to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations as they come due. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Subsequent to April 30, 2014, the Company secured financing which resulted in gross cash proceeds to the Company of $4,943,750, before deducting agent fees and other transaction-related expenses (Note 14) and negotiated settlements and concessions with certain creditors (Notes 7(ii), 8(i) and 8(iii)) to provide for working capital and to provide for ongoing development of the Company’s business.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared by management, without audit, in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading and the accompanying financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for fair presentation of statement of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the three months ended April 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended January 31, 2015.
The consolidated balance sheet at January 31, 2014 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the most recent audited financial statements of the Company included in its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2014.

Segment Reporting
The Company used several factors in identifying and analyzing reportable segments, including the basis of organization, such as differences in products and services, and geographical areas. Our chief operating decision makers review financial information presented on a consolidated basis for the purposes of making operating decisions and assessing financing performance. Accordingly, the Company has determined that as of April 30, 2014 and 2013, there is only a single reportable operating segment.
The Company operates in one industry, the manufacture and sale of direct and wholesale undergarments. Revenues from external customers are all derived from customers located within North America as follows:
| | 2014 | | | 2013 | |
United States | $ | 85,300 | | $ | 51,221 | |
Canada | | 34,514 | | | 42,345 | |
| $ | 119,814 | | $ | 93,566 | |
At April 30, 2014 and January 31, 2014 substantially all of the Company’s long-lived assets were located in Canada.
New Accounting Pronouncements
From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”), which are adopted by the Company as of the specified date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
On May 28, 2014, the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued a converged standard on revenue recognition from contracts with customers, ASU 2014-09 (Topic 606 and IFRS 15). This standard will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

(i) | Revolving Credit Facilities with Kalamalka Partners |
| |
| August, 2012 Credit Facility |
| |
| On August 10, 2012, the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Naked, entered into the Agency Agreement with Kalamalka and certain lenders (the “Lenders”) as set out in the Agency Agreement whereby the Company agreed to borrow up to $800,000 from the Lenders under a revolving loan arrangement by the issuance of convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) from time to time as such funds are required by the Company. |
| |
| During the year ended January 31, 2013, the Company issued convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000 and an aggregate of 100,000 share purchase warrants to the Lenders (the “Lender Warrants”) exercisable into one common share of the Company as follows: 25,000 Lender Warrants exercisable at $0.25 until August 10, 2015, 25,000 Lender Warrants exercisable at $0.50 until August 10, 2015 and 50,000 Lender Warrants exercisable at $0.25 until August 10, 2014. |
| |
| The Notes were initially bearing interest at 12% per annum, calculated and payable monthly. The principal amount outstanding under any Note and all accrued and unpaid interest therein, were initially convertible into common shares of the Company at $0.75 per share at any time at the option of the Lender. These terms were later amended, as set forth below. |
| |
| The Notes are collateralized by a first priority general security agreement over the present and future assets of the Company. |
| |
| The Notes may be prepaid at any time at the option of the Company with 60 days’ written notice to Kalamalka (the “Agent”) under the Agency Agreement. Prepayments must be accompanied by a 1% prepayment fee and the prepaid amount will form a pool of stand-by funds that will continue to accrue interest at a rate of 4% per annum, calculated and payable monthly. |
| |
| Pursuant to the guidance of ASC 470-20 Debt with Conversion and Other Options, the Company allocated the proceeds from the issuance of the Closing Notes between the Closing Notes and the detachable Lender warrants using the relative fair value method. The fair value of the Lender Warrants of $22,100 at issuance resulted in a debt discount at issuance of $20,940, which is being amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the Notes. During the three months ended April 30, 2014, the Company recorded accretion expense of $5,587 (2013: $2,525) in respect of the accretion of this discount and $10,356 (2013: $14,247), in interest in respect of these Notes. |
| |
| In consideration for the convertible debt issued, the Company issued an aggregate of 1,148,000 share purchase warrants to non-lenders as follows: (i) 948,000 share purchase warrants to the Agent as consideration for facilitating the loan (the “Agent’s Warrants”), of which 448,000 were exercisable into common shares of the Company at $0.25 per share for a period of two years and 500,000 were exercisable into common shares of the Company at $0.50 per share for a period of two years; and (ii) 200,000 share purchase warrants to certain non-lenders as consideration for a $200,000 bridge loan provided to the Company prior to the closing of the Agency Agreement (the “Bridge Loan Warrants”), of which 125,000 Bridge Loan Warrants were exercisable into common shares of the Company at $0.25 per share for a period of three years and 75,000 Bridge Loan Warrants were exercisable into common shares of the Company at $0.50 per share for a period of three years. The fair value of the Agent’s Warrants and the Bridge Loan Warrants of $237,500 was recorded as a deferred financing charge and is being amortized to income over the term of the Notes using the effective interest method. During the three months ended April 30, 2014, the Company had recorded financing expense of $15,332 (2013: $23,385) in respect of the amortization of these charges. Accumulated amortization as at January 31, 2014 was $153,988 (January 31, 2014: $138,656). |

Naked Brand Group Inc. |

(Expressed in US Dollars) |
(Unaudited) |
The fair value of the Agents Warrants, the Lender Warrants and the Bridge Loan Warrants at issuance was determined using the Black Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:
Risk-free interest rate | | 0.29% | |
Expected life (years) | | 2.20 | |
Expected volatility(1) | | 201.94% | |
Estimated stock price at date of issuance(2) | $ | 0.25 | |
Dividend yields | | 0.00% | |
(1) As the Company has insufficient historical data on which to estimate expected future share price volatility, the Company estimated expected share price volatility based on the historical share price volatility of comparable entities.
(2) The estimated stock price of $0.25 per share was determined with reference to the subscription price of the most recent share offerings for which the funds raised were being used to provide financing to the Company. This was considered to be the most appropriate basis on which to estimate the fair value of the Company’s stock as, at the time of the transaction, the Company’s stock was not being traded on an active market.
Funds advanced under the loan were restricted for inventory and accounts receivable whereby we could fund up to 90% of the Company’s accounts receivable and inventory (the “Borrowing Margin Requirements”). “Inventory” included raw materials in transit and in our possession, materials in the course of production, work in progress and unsold finished goods, all valued at cost. Receivables were marginable until 60 days from the invoice date, after which time such receivables had no value for margining purposes, except that up to $10,000 of receivables were marginable if such receivables were more than 60 days old but less than 90 days old.
First Amendments
During the year ended January 31, 2013, the Company’s borrowing exceeded the required margins and these Notes entered into default. As a result, on July 22, 2013, the Company entered into an Amendment Agreement with Kalamalka and the Lenders. Pursuant to the Amendment Agreement, the Company amended the Notes to reduce the conversion price from $0.75 to $0.50 per share and amended the terms of the Lender Warrants, Bridge Loan Warrants and Agent’s Warrants such that the expiry of all of the warrants was extended by three years. In addition, the Amendment Agreement reduced the total commitment of the revolving loan facility from $800,000 to the $500,000 already advanced.

Naked Brand Group Inc. |

The amendments were considered a substantial change in the terms of the loan facility and, accordingly, the Company applied debt extinguishment accounting and calculated a loss on extinguishment of debt of $485,704 as the premium of the aggregate fair value of the amended notes of $778,553 over their carrying values of $488,849 immediately prior to the amendments, plus the fair value of the modification of the Lender Warrants, Bridge Loan Warrants and Agent’s Warrants. The Company calculated the fair value of the amended convertible promissory notes by discounting future cash flows using rates representative of current borrowing rates for debt instruments without a conversion feature and by using the Black Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of the conversion features, using the following assumptions:
Risk-free interest rate | | 0.10% | |
Expected life (years) | | 1.07 | |
Expected volatility(1) | | 151.47% | |
Stock price | $ | 0.52 | |
Dividend yields | | 0.00% | |
The fair value of the modification of the Lender Warrants, Bridge Loan Warrants and Agent’s Warrants of $196,000 was determined as the difference between the fair value of these warrants immediately prior to the amendments and the fair value of these warrants immediately after the amendment. The fair values were determined using the Black Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:
Risk-free interest rate | | 1.03% | |
Expected life (years) | | 4.25 | |
Expected volatility(1) | | 249.92% | |
Stock price at date of issuance | $ | 0.52 | |
Dividend yields | | 0.00% | |
| (1) | As the Company has insufficient historical data on which to estimate expected future share price volatility, the Company estimated expected share price volatility based on the historical share price volatility of comparable entities. |
The loss was recorded on the consolidated statement of operations during the year ended January 31, 2014, with a corresponding credit to additional paid in capital. In connection with the reduction in borrowing capacity, the Company wrote off $56,555 of unamortized deferred finance charges in proportion to the decrease in the borrowing capacity, and incurred $2,520 in deferred financing fees in connection with the amendments. This cost was recognized as finance charges on the consolidated statement of operations during the year ended January 31, 2014. On April 4, 2014, $400,000 of the $500,000 principle balance was further amended and included in the First Kalamalka Amended Agreement below.

Second Amendments
On April 4, 2014, the Company entered into another Amendment Agreement (the “First Kalamalka Amendment Agreement”) with Kalamalka and certain of the Lenders as set out in the Amendment Agreement (collectively, the “First Tranche Lenders”) amending the Agency and Interlender Agreement dated August 10, 2012 (the “First Agency Agreement”). In connection with the First Agency Agreement, the Company amended several of the Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $400,000 (the “First Tranche Kalamalka Notes”) as follows; (i) the Company extended the due date of the First Tranche Kalamalka Notes to October 1, 2016; (ii) the Company reduced the interest rate accruing under the First Tranche Kalamalka Notes to 6% per annum, calculated and payable quarterly, in cash or in kind; (iv) the Company removed the Borrowing Margin Requirements; (iii) the Company amended the First Tranche Kalamalka Notes to reduce the conversion price from $0.50 per share to $0.25 per share; and (v) 500,000 share purchase warrants exercisable at a strike price of $0.50 until August 10, 2017 held by Kalamalka and 100,000 share purchase warrants at a strike price of $0.50 until August 10, 2018 (the “Existing Warrants”) were exchanged for 600,000 New Warrants, as defined and described below (the “Exchanged Warrants”).
As consideration for facilitating such amendments, the Company granted 1,200,000 share purchase warrants to the First Tranche Lenders and Kalamalka (the “New Warrants”).
Each New Warrant is exercisable into one common share at a price of $0.15 per share for a period of five years from the closing date of the Subsequent Financing (Note 14). The Company has the right to call the New Warrants if the volume weighted average closing price of the Company’s shares exceeds $0.40 per share for more than 20 consecutive trading days at any time after twenty four months following the closing date. In that event, the New Warrants will expire 30 days following the date the Company delivers notice in writing to the warrant holders announcing the call of the New Warrants. In addition, the New Warrants contain piggyback registration rights on any subsequent registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including, without limitation, any registration statement that may be required to be filed with the SEC in connection with the Subsequent Financing (Note 14).
The Company assessed the guidance under ASC 470-60Troubled Debt Restructurings and determined that this guidance did not apply to the amendments. The amendments were considered a substantial change in the terms of the loan facility and, accordingly, the Company applied debt extinguishment accounting and calculated a loss on extinguishment of debt of $480,900 as the premium of the aggregate fair value of the amended notes and New Warrants and Exchanged Warrants of $857,300 over their carrying values of $376,400 immediately prior to the amendments. The Company calculated the fair value of the amended Notes by discounting future cash flows using rates representative of current borrowing rates for debt instruments without a conversion feature and by using the Black Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of the conversion features, using the following assumptions:

The loss was recorded on the condensed consolidated interim statement of operations during the three months ended April 30, 2014, with a corresponding credit to additional paid in capital. In connection with the First Kalamalka Amendment Agreement and the Second Kalamalka Amendment Agreement (as defined and described below), the Company incurred $35,040 in deferred financing fees in connection with the amendments. These cost have been recorded as a deferred financing charge and are being amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the Notes. During the three months ended April 30, 2014, the Company recorded financing expense of $2,027 (2013: $Nil) in respect of the amortization of these charges.

Subsequent to April 30, 2014, the remaining Note in the aggregate principal amount of $100,000 plus $1,868 in accrued interest therein was settled by the issuance of 1,018,685 common shares of the Company at a conversion price of $0.10 per share.
November, 2013 Credit Facility
On November 14, 2013, the Company entered into an Agency and Interlender Agreement dated November 14, 2013 (the “Agency Agreement”) with Kalamalka, and certain lenders as set out in the Agency Agreement (the “Lenders”), whereby the Company agreed to borrow up to $300,000 from the Lenders from time to time (the “Loan”). In connection with the closing of the Agency Agreement, the Company issued: (i) two convertible promissory notes (collectively, the “Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $100,000 and (ii) an aggregate of 125,000 share purchase warrants (each, a “Lender Warrant”) to the Lenders. On November 26, 2013, the Company issued (i) additional Notes in the principal amounts totaling $100,000 and (ii) 125,000 additional Lender Warrants and on December 24, 2013 the Company issued (i) an additional Note in the principal amount of $75,000 and (ii) 115,000 additional Lender Warrants.
Each Lender Warrant is exercisable into one Share at a price of $0.10 per Share for a period of two years from the date of issuance.
Each Note was due on January 31, 2014 (the “Due Date”) and was bearing interest at the rate of 12% per annum, calculated daily and payable on the Due Date. The principal amount outstanding under any Note, and all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, may be converted into shares of common stock of the Company at a price of $0.25 per share at any time at the option of the respective Lender. Repayment of the Notes is secured by general security agreements dated November 14, 2013, as amended and restated, made by each of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary in favor of Kalamalka, as agent for the Lenders.
As consideration for facilitating the Loans, the Company issued an aggregate of 362,500 warrants (the “Kalamalka Warrants”) to Kalamalka, each Kalamalka Warrant exercisable into Shares at a price of $0.10 per Share for two years from the date of issuance.
Pursuant to the guidance of ASC 470-20 Debt with Conversion and Other Options, the Company allocated the proceeds from the issuance of the Notes between the Notes and the detachable Lender warrants using the relative fair value method.
The Company recorded a beneficial conversion feature in the amount of $17,600 in respect of first tranche of $100,000 issued in connection with the closing of the Agency Agreement. The beneficial conversion feature was calculated based on a comparison of the proceeds of the Notes allocated to the Notes and the fair value of the common stock at the commitment date of the Notes.
The fair value of the Lender Warrants of $58,600 at issuance resulted in a debt discount of $41,225, and along with a beneficial conversion feature of $17,600, resulted in a total debt discount at issuance of $58,825, which was amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the Notes to January 31, 2014. During the three months ended April 30, 2014, the Company recorded accretion expense of $Nil (2013: $Nil) in respect of the accretion of this discount and $5,696 (2013: $Nil), in interest in respect of these Notes.

The fair value of the Agent’s Warrants of $67,600 was recorded as a deferred financing charge and was amortized to income over the term of the Notes to January 31, 2014 using the effective interest method.
The fair value of the Agents Warrants and the Lender Warrants at issuance was determined using the Black Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:
Risk-free interest rate | | 0.63% | |
Expected life (years) | | 3.00 | |
Expected volatility(1) | | 144.71% | |
Stock price at date of issuance | $ | 0.20 | |
Dividend yields | | 0.00% | |
(1) As the Company has insufficient historical data on which to estimate expected future share price volatility, the Company estimated expected share price volatility based on the historical share price volatility of comparable entities.
On January 31, 2014, the Company did not repay the Notes at maturity. On April 4, 2014; the Company entered into an Amendment Agreement (the “Second Kalamalka Amendment Agreement”) with Kalamalka and certain lenders as set out in the Agreement (collectively, the “Second Tranche Lenders”) amending the Agency and Interlender Agreement dated November 14, 2013 (the “Second Agency Agreement”). In connection with the Second Agency Agreement, the Company amended certain convertible term promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $200,000 (the “Second Tranche Notes”) as follows; (i) the Company extended the due date of the Second Tranche Notes to October 1, 2016; (ii) the Company reduced the interest rate accruing under the Second Tranche Notes to 6% per annum, calculated and payable quarterly, in cash or in kind; and (iii) the Company removed the Borrowing Margin Requirements.
As consideration for facilitating such amendments, the Company granted 600,000 New Warrants to the Second Tranche Lenders and to Kalamalka.
Repayment of the First Tranche Notes and the Second Tranche Notes is collateralized by a general security agreement dated November 14, 2013, as amended on April 4, 2014 (the “Kalamalka Security Agreement”), made by the Company in favour of Kalamalka, as agent for the First Tranche Lenders and Second Tranche Lenders, which Kalamalka Security Agreement ranks pari passu with a Security Agreement April 4, 2014 between CSD Holdings LLC, as agent for the certain lenders, Kalamalka, First Tranche Lenders, Second Tranche Lenders, and the Company.
The Company assessed the guidance under ASC 470-60Troubled Debt Restructurings and determined that this guidance did not apply to the amendments. The amendments were considered a substantial change in the terms of the loan facility and, accordingly, the Company applied debt extinguishment accounting and calculated a loss on extinguishment of debt of $216,500 as the premium of the aggregate fair value of the amended notes and New Warrants of $416,500 over their carrying values of $200,000 immediately prior to the amendments. The Company calculated the fair value of the amended Notes by discounting future cash flows using rates representative of current borrowing rates for debt instruments without a conversion feature and by using the Black Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of the conversion features, using the following assumptions:

| | |
| | In addition, during the three months ended April 30, 2014, the Company exchanged a Note with an outstanding amount of $76,388, including accrued interest of $1,388, for the issuance of a SPA Note in the same amount (Note 7(i)). The Company assessed the guidance under ASC 470-60 Troubled Debt Restructurings and determined that this guidance did not apply to the exchange of debt instruments. Under the guidance of ASC 470-50, the exchange was considered a substantial change in the terms of the loan facility and, accordingly, the Company applied debt extinguishment accounting. The Company calculated the fair value of the amended Note by discounting future cash flows using a discount rate representative of current borrowing rates for debt instruments and valuing the discount included in the amended Note with respect to its conversion into a Subsequent Financing (Note 7(i)). There was a trivial gain on settlement which was not recorded in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements. |
| | |
| (ii) | On October 4, 2013, the Company issued an OID (Original Issue Discount) convertible promissory note in the amount of $343,212. The purchase price for this note was $300,000. The note was to mature on February 9, 2014, and was repayable in eight equal instalments of $42,902 over the term of the note (each a “Regular Repayment”). |
| | |
| | The note entitles the holder, at its election, at any time on or prior to maturity, to convert all or any portion of the principal amount and any interest outstanding thereon into shares of common stock of the Company at the price of $0.25 per share. |
| | |
| | The amounts due under the note were collateralized by a personal guarantee of a director and officer of the Company, who also pledged 4,859,613 shares of his common stock to the lender as collateral. |
| | |
| | As additional consideration for entering into the note, the Company issued 200,000 common shares to the lender (the “Fee Shares”). The fair value at issuance of the Fee Shares of $48,000, determined with reference to the quoted market price of these shares at the date of issuance, was recorded as a debt discount at issuance, which was being amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the note. |

In addition, the lender was entitled to 5,000 common shares in the event the Company did not make a Regular Repayment when due and payable under the terms of the note. During the three months ended April 30, 2014, the Company requested an extension on the sixth, seventh and eighth Regular Repayments and, consequently Company issued 15,000 common shares to the lender. The fair value of these shares of $1,250, which was determined with reference to the quoted market price of the Company’s stock on the commitment date, was recorded as a charge to general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended April 30, 2014.
During the three months ended April 30, 2014, the Company recorded accretion expense of $7,754 (2013: $Nil) in respect of the accretion of this discount on this note.
In connection with the issuance of this note, the Company incurred deferred finance fees of $53,054 as follows:
| (a) | The Company paid $2,500 and issued 10,000 common shares as a structuring fee, and paid $12,125 in legal fees and expenses incurred by the lender. The fair value of the common shares issued of $2,400, was determined with reference to the quoted market price of these shares on the commitment date of the convertible promissory note. |
| | |
| (b) | In addition, the Company paid a finder’s fee of $11,429 and 120,000 share purchase warrants. The share purchase warrants are exercisable into common shares of the Company at $0.2799 per share for a period of two years from the date of issuance. The fair value of the finder’s warrants of $18,400 was determined using an option pricing model under the following assumptions: |
Risk-free interest rate | | 0.33% | |
Expected life (years) | | 2.00 | |
Expected volatility(1) | | 211.16% | |
Stock price at issuance | $ | 0.24 | |
Dividend yields | | 0.00% | |
(1) As the Company has insufficient historical data on which to estimate expected future share price volatility, the Company estimated expected share price volatility based on the historical share price volatility of comparable entities.
The deferred finance fees were recorded as a deferred finance charge and were being amortized to income over the term of the note using the effective interest method. During the three months ended April 30, 2014, the Company recorded financing expense of $3,607 (2013: $Nil) in respect of the amortization of these charges.
On April 7, 2014, the Company entered into a debt settlement agreement with this lender pursuant to which the Company agreed to exchange the remaining outstanding amount of $128,705 for the issuance of a new SPA note (Note 7(i)). The Company assessed the guidance under ASC 470-60 Troubled Debt Restructurings and determined that this guidance did not apply to the exchange of debt instruments. Under the guidance of ASC 470-50, the exchange was considered a substantial change in the terms of the loan facility and, accordingly, the Company applied debt extinguishment accounting. The Company calculated the fair value of the amended Note by discounting future cash flows using a discount rate representative of current borrowing rates for debt instruments and valuing the discount included in the amended Note with respect to its conversion into a Subsequent Financing (Note 7(i)).

| (iii) | On November 13, 2013, the Company issued a promissory note in the principal amount of up to $500,000 plus accrued and unpaid interest and any other fees. On November 13, 2013, the Company received $100,000, after an OID of 10%, with the remaining balance of the note payable by the lender in such amounts and at such dates as the lender may choose in its sole discretion |
| | |
| | The maturity date for the note was November 13, 2015. The principal sum, plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon, of the note may be converted, at any time by lender, into shares of common stock of the Company at a price which is the lesser of $0.265 or 60% of the lowest trade price in the 25 trading days prior to the conversion (the “Conversion Price”). |
| | |
| | The Company was permitted to repay the promissory note at any time on or before 90 days from November 13, 2013 with 0% interest. If the Company did not repay the promissory note within the 90 days then a one-time interest charge of 12% will be applied to the principal sum. The Company did not repay the note on or before 90 days from November 13, 2013 and consequently, a one-time interest charge of 12%, of $13,333, was applied to the principal balance outstanding. This one-time interest charge of $13,333 was accrued in the financial statements for the year ended January 31, 2014. |
| | |
| | The Company granted piggyback registration rights to the lender in connection with the next registration statement to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company also agreed that the terms of the note will be amended if the Company issues any securities with terms more favorable than the terms contained in the note. |
| | |
| | In connection with the issuance of this promissory note, the Company had agreed that the terms of the promissory note will be amended if any securities are issued, while the promissory note is outstanding, at terms more favorable to the terms contained in the promissory note, such that the more favorable terms would become part of the transaction documents of the Lender. This ratchet provision and conversion feature violated the fixed for fixed criteria resulting in the recording of a derivative financial instrument in the Company’s consolidated financial statements (Note 9). |
| | |
| | The Company allocated the proceeds from the issuance of the promissory note first to the derivative financial instrument, at its fair value, with the remainder being allocated to the promissory note. The fair value of the derivative financial instrument of $155,500 at issuance resulted in a debt discount at issuance of $111,111, the entire principal balance of the promissory note. The remaining derivative financial instrument value over the proceeds of the debt at issuance of $55,500 was immediately expensed on the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss as derivative expense, during the year ended January 31, 2014. This discount was being amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the promissory note. |
| | |
| | During the three months ended April 30, 2014, the Company recorded accretion expense of $1,375 (2013: $Nil) in accretion of this discount. |
| | |
| | Subsequent to April 30, 2014, the Company entered into a Note Termination Agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to settle the full amount outstanding under the Note in exchange for (i) a one-time cash payment of $175,000 and (ii) 330,000 common shares of the Company. |

| (iv) | On December 23, 2013, the Company entered into two securities purchase agreements (the “Securities Purchase Agreements”) dated December 23, 2013 with two lenders, whereby the Company could issue six convertible notes, each in the aggregate principal amount of $25,000 (each, a “Note”). The first two of the Notes were paid for by the lenders in cash (the “Cash Notes”) and the third, fourth, fifth and sixth of the Notes (the “Back End Notes”) were initially be paid for by the issuance of four offsetting $25,000 secured notes receivable issued to the Company by the lenders (each, a “Offsetting Note”), provided that prior to conversion of the four Back End Notes as described below, the lenders must have paid off the applicable Offsetting Note in cash. |
| | |
| | The Cash Notes mature on September 23, 2014 and are accruing interest at the rate of 8% per annum. The principal sum and any accrued and unpaid interest of the Notes are convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time after 180 days after issuance, and after full cash payment for the shares convertible thereunder, at a price per share equal to 55% of the average of the two lowest closing bid prices as reported on the OTCQB for the ten prior trading days. |
| | |
| | The Notes may be redeemed at any time on or before 180 after issuance, subject to redemption premiums of 20-40%. The notes may not be redeemed after 180 days. |
| | |
| | The Cash Notes have been recorded as stock settled debt in accordance with ASC 480 whereby a put premium of $20,455 was recorded on each Cash Note and is being amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the respective Cash Note. |
| | |
| | The Back End Notes have been presented net of their respecting Offsetting Note as these Notes have no substance until the applicable Offsetting Note has been paid for in cash by the Lender. |
| | |
| | During the three months ended April 30, 2014, the Company recorded accretion expense of $11,662 (2013: $Nil) in accretion of these discounts. |
| | |
| | In connection with the issuance of the Cash Notes, the Company incurred deferred finance fees of $8,000. The deferred finance fees were recorded as a deferred finance charge and are being amortized to income over the term of the Cash Notes using the effective interest method. During the three months ended April 30, 2014, the Company recorded financing expense of $2,508 (2013: $Nil) in respect of the amortization of these charges. Accumulated amortization as at April 30, 2014 was $3,564 (January 31, 2014: $1,056). |
| | |
| (v) | The Company entered into a securities purchase agreement dated December 30, 2013 (the “SPA”) with a lender, whereby the Company issued a convertible note in the aggregate principal amount of $83,500 (the “Note”). |
| | |
| | The Note matures on September 17, 2014 and is accruing interest at a rate of 8% per annum. Any amount of principal or interest on the Note which is not paid when due will bear interest at the rate of 22% per annum from the due date until the same is paid. |

The principal sum and any accrued and unpaid interest of the Note is convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time after 180 days after issuance, at a price for each share equal to 61% of the average of the three lowest closing bid prices as reported on the OTCQB for the ten prior trading days.
The Note may be redeemed at any time on or before 180 after issuance, subject to redemption premiums of 15-40%. The notes may not be redeemed after 180 days.
In connection with the issuance of this Note, the Company had agreed that the terms of the Note will be amended if any securities are issued, while the Note is outstanding, at terms more favorable to the terms contained in the Note, such that the more favorable terms would become part of the transaction documents of the Lender. This ratchet provision and conversion feature violated the fixed for fixed criteria resulting in the recording of a derivative financial instrument in the Company’s consolidated financial statements (Note 9).
The Company allocated the proceeds from the issuance of the Note first to the derivative financial instrument, at its fair value, with the remainder being allocated to the Note. The fair value of the derivative financial instrument of $8,376 at issuance resulted in a debt discount, which is being amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the Note.
During the three months ended April 30, 2014, the Company recorded accretion expense of $2,820 (2013: $Nil) in accretion of this discount.
In connection with the issuance of the Note, the Company incurred deferred finance fees of $11,500.

During the three months ended April 30, 2014, the Company recorded financing expense of $3,800 (2013: $Nil) in respect of the amortization of these charges. Accumulated amortization as at April 30, 2014 was $5,120 (January 31, 2014: $1,320).
9. | Derivative financial instruments |
At April 30, 2014 and January 31, 2014, the Company had derivative financial instruments associated with convertible promissory notes (Notes 11 (iii) and (v)).
As a result of the application of ASC 815, the Company has recorded these derivative financial instruments for the three months ended April 30, 2014 and for the year ended January 31, 2014 at their fair value as follows:

The Company determined fair value of the derivative financial instruments at April 30, 2014 and January 31, 2014 based on the following weighted average management assumptions:
| | April 30, | | | January 31, | |
| | 2014 | | | 2014 | |
Risk-free interest rate | | 0.19% | | | 0.34% | |

Stock price | $ | 0.14 | | $ | 0.08 | |
Dividend yields | | 0.00% | | | 0.00% | |
(1) As the Company has insufficient historical data on which to estimate expected future share price volatility, the Company estimated expected share price volatility based on the historical share price volatility of comparable entities.
During the year ended January 31, 2014, the Company repaid a promissory note which contained a derivative financial instrument and this derivative financial instrument was extinguished.
10. | Securities Purchase Agreement |
On September 10, 2013, the Company entered into an $8,300,000 securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC, (“Lincoln Park”) an Illinois limited liability company (the “Financing”) pursuant to which the Company may sell and issue to Lincoln Park, and Lincoln Park is obligated to purchase, up to $8,300,000 in value of its shares of common stock from time to time over a 24 month period. In connection with the Financing, the Company also entered into a registration rights agreement with Lincoln Park whereby the Company agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) covering the shares of the Company’s common stock that may be issued to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement.
The Company will determine, at its own discretion, the timing and amount of its sales of common stock, subject to certain conditions and limitations. The purchase price of the shares that may be sold to Lincoln Park under the Purchase Agreement will be based on the market price of the Company’s shares of common stock immediately preceding the time of sale without any fixed discount, provided that in no event will such shares be sold to Lincoln Park when the closing sale price is less than $0.35 per share. There are no upper limits on the per share price that Lincoln Park may pay to purchase such common stock. The purchase price will be equitably adjusted for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split or similar transaction occurring during the business days used to compute such price.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, Lincoln Park initially purchased 600,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for $300,000. In consideration for entering into the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued to Lincoln Park 919,500 shares of common stock as a commitment fee and shall issue up to 330,000 shares pro rata, when and if, Lincoln Park purchases at the Company’s discretion the remaining $8,000,000 aggregate commitment. The Purchase Agreement may be terminated by the Company at any time at its discretion without any cost to the Company.
On December 12, 2013, this registration statement was declared effective by the SEC.

The Company incurred $58,656 in direct expenses in connection with the Purchase Agreement and registration statement. These were recorded as share issuance costs as a charge against additional paid in capital during the year ended January 31, 2014. The shares of common stock issued a commitment fee are being recorded as a share issuance cost at par value with a corresponding charge against additional paid in capital in the period they are issued.
Other Equity Transactions
i) | On February 21, 2013, the Company reduced the price of 200,000 units and 14,000 common shares issued during the year ended January 31, 2013 from $0.50 to $0.25 per unit and share, respectively. Consequently, the Company issued 200,000 units and 14,000 common shares for no additional consideration. Each unit consisted of one common share of the Company and one share purchase warrant. Each warrant is exercisable into one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.75 per share for a period of two years from the date of the initial offering. The Company determined that the aggregate fair value on the grant date of these units and shares was $239,680 and recorded the entire amount as a shareholder dividend in the financial statements during the three months ended October 31, 2013. The fair value of $1.12 per share was determined by reference to the quoted market price of the Company’s stock on the date of issuance. |
| |
ii) | On April 19, 2013, the Company issued 1,993,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.25 per share and 100,000 units of the Company at $0.25 per unit for gross proceeds of $523,250. Each unit consisted of one common share of the Company and one share purchase warrant. Each warrant is exercisable into one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.25 per share for a period of two years. In connection with the foregoing private placement, the Company issued 104,440 warrants to four finders. Each warrant is exercisable into one share of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $0.75 per share for a period of two years. The Company paid finder’s fees of $26,610 in connection with this private placement. |

iii) | On May 6, 2013, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.25 per share for gross proceeds of $250,000 to be received in four tranches as follows: |
| (i) | $50,000 payable on closing of the Financing (the “Closing”)(received); |
| | |
| (ii) | $50,000 payable on or before the date which is five months from the Closing (the “First Tranche”)(received); |

Recent Corporate Developments
Since the commencement of our first quarter ended April 30, 2014, we have experienced the following significant corporate developments:
| 1. | We closed an over $6 million private placement financing of convertible debentures and warrants (the “Offering”). The gross proceeds were raised through the sale of 246 units (the “Units”) at a price of $25,000 per Unit. Each Unit consists of (i) a 6% convertible senior secured debenture in the principal amount of $25,000 and (ii) a warrant to purchase 166,667 common shares of the Company at an exercise price of $0.15 per share, subject to adjustment. |
6
| | The funds raised from the sale of the Units will be used for marketing and new product development and design, as well as general working capital requirements. |
| | |
| 2. | On June 6, 2014 Ms. Carole Hochman accepted the appointment by the board of directors of the company to serve as the Company Chief Executive Officer and Chief Creative Officer, and to serve as a director of the Company, with each appointment effective June 10, 2014 upon the closing of the Offering, as described above. Carole Hochman is a renowned designer and sleepwear pioneer. She is considered one of the single most influential women in the intimate apparel and sleepwear business in the United States and has been creating intimate apparel for more than 30 years. |
| | |
| 3. | On June 6, 2014 Mr. Michael Flanagan accepted the appointment by the board of directors of the company to serve as the Company Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer effective June 9, 2014. Mr. Flanagan brings more than 30 years of very successful apparel experience in both finance and operations. |
| | |
| 4. | On June 6, 2014, we appointed Mr. Carlos Serra, age 45, as our company’s VP Sales and Merchandising, effective June 23, 2014. Mr. Serra is a senior sales, merchandising and marketing executive with over 18 years of experience in the intimate apparel industry. |
| | |
| 5. | On June 9, 2014, our board of directors approved a 2014 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”), which provides for the grant of stock options, restricted shares, restricted share units and performance stock and units to directors, officers, employees and consultants of our Company. The maximum number of shares of common stock reserved for issue under the plan is 110,000,000 shares. Stockholder approval will be necessary under the provisions of the Plan to ensure that awards qualify as “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. |
| | |
| 6. | We entered into a vendor agreement with Hudsons Bay Company and have supplied an initial order of units for their Vancouver, British Columbia store which were delivered on May 16, 2014. Our products are also now available on their online store. |
Outlook
We will continue to operate in the men’s undergarment market and have no current plans to change significantly change operations. However, we do plan to launch a complimentary line of women’s innerwear, loungewear and sleepwear products and in the future extend the Naked brand to other products.
Subsequent to April 30, 2014, we were able to secure financing which will enable management to actively pursue planned business objectives and growth strategies.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED APRIL 30, 2014
Revenue
During the three months ended April 30, 2014, we generated net sales of $119,814 compared to $93,566 for the same period in 2013, an increase of $26,248, or 28.1% . Net sales increased as a result of increased seasonal and promotional sales to key wholesale customers, department stores and boutique customer accounts, and from lower than average sales in the comparable period as a result of low inventory levels. We expect our sales will increase in subsequent quarters as a result of financing securing subsequent to April 30, 2014 which will allow our company to implement its business strategies.
We had a 19.7% increase in cost of sales in the current quarter, year over year, due to the higher volume of sales. Our gross margin was 38% in the quarter ended April 30, 2014 compared to 34% in the quarter ended April 30, 2013. The increase in gross margin is partially the result of the recovery of inventory which had been previously written off during the year ended January 31, 2014.

There was a decrease in general and administrative expenses to $425,645 for the three months ended April 30, 2014, from $623,589 for the three months ended April 30, 2013.
Our consulting fees decreased as a result of higher than normal consulting fees incurred in the comparative period due to contracts with a branding company, merchandising consulting, and other consultants engaged in special projects in that period.
Directors’ fees in the current period are related to the issuance of stock to a board member appointed in the third quarter of the prior fiscal year. In the comparative period, we did not have any independent board members.
Our investor relations expenses was significantly reduced this quarter as a result of the termination of contractual relationships with investor relations firms who had been assisting in capital raising efforts through introductions to the institutional and retail investment community. These capital raising efforts were continued internally within the company and, as described above, are reflected in the successful securing of a significant financing subsequent to April 30, 2014.
Our marketing expenses decreased in the current quarter as a result of the design and development of new product packaging, marketing materials and tradeshow displays in the comparative period. In the current period, marketing costs consisted primarily of merchandising consulting, online advertising and product sample giveaways.
Professional fees increased year over year, as a result of higher audit fees associated with new debt contracts.
Salaries and benefits increased due to increased staffing levels to support marketing, product sourcing, finance and operations.
We continue to incur significant costs for travel. The former CEO spent a significant amount of time travelling to meet with investment banks in conjunction with potential financings. Travel expenses also included former CEO and staff trips to the United States and Canada for tradeshows, customer relations trips and product knowledge sessions.
8
We incurred significant expenses for warehouse management this quarter because we have outsourced our shipping to US customers and warehouse storage to a third party logistics company. Warehouse management costs this quarter were higher than in prior quarters as a result of third party handling costs associated with a product box changeover.
Other income and expenses
We incurred interest expenses of $24,429 for the three months ended April 30, 2014 as compared to $17,243 for the same period in 2013, an increase of $7,186. This increase in interest is attributable to additional loans advanced under the revolving loan agreement with Kalamalka, as well as other short term interim financings entered into during subsequent to the comparative period, which were arranged to bridge operations until a more significant, long-term financing was arranged subsequent to April 30, 2014.
Financing and accretion charges increased to $101,091 for the three months ended April 30, 2014 from $24,849 for the three months ended April 30, 2013. This was mostly the result of the amortization of a significant debt discounts associated with short term unsecured promissory notes that were issued subsequent to the comparative period.
In addition, other income and expenses for the three months ended April 30, 2014 includes a $697,400 loss associated with amendments made to certain convertible notes. This loss is the result of providing reducing the conversion price of certain of the notes and issuing share purchase warrants to the lenders as consideration for the lenders agreeing to (i) extend the maturity dates of these notes; (ii) reduce the interest rate accruing under the terms of the notes from 12% to 6%; and (iii) remove borrowing margins and amend certain security provisions. This loss did not represent any cash outlay for our company and, as a result of the amendments we have greater borrowing flexibility.
We have a mark to market derivative expense of $26,982 during the current quarter which arose in connection with a derivative financial instrument that was being recognized in our financial statements because of a full ratchet provision included in a convertible promissory note. Accounting rules required this derivative financial instrument to be carried at fair value which resulted in significant mark to market adjustments in correlation with fluctuations in the price of our common stock. These are non-cash income and expense items of our company.
Net loss and comprehensive loss
Our net loss for the three months ended April 30, 2014 was $1,233,860, or $0.04 per share, as compared to a net loss of $643,434, or $0.02 per share, for the three months ended April 30, 2013. The most significant factor for the increase in net loss in the current period is the non-cash loss associated with the extinguishment of debt, as described above.
LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
Private Placement Offering
Subsequent to April 30, 2014, we entered into Subscription Agreements (collectively, the “Subscription Agreements”) with several investors (collectively, the “Purchasers”) in connection with a brokered private placement offering (the “Offering”) for aggregate gross proceeds of $6,159,482 through the sale of 246 units (the “Units”) at a price of $25,000 per Unit. Each Unit consisted of (i) a 6% convertible senior secured debenture in the principal amount of $25,000 (each, a “Debenture”) and (ii) warrants to purchase 166,667 of our common shares at an exercise price of $0.15 per share, subject to certain adjustment as set out in the warrant agreements (the “Warrants”).
In connection with the close of the Offering, we issued Debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $6,159,482. As consideration, we (i) received gross cash proceeds equal to $4,943,750, before deducting agent fees and other transaction-related expenses; and (ii) exchanged our 6% senior secured convertible notes in the aggregate amount of $1,094,159, being the principal and accrued interest due under such notes, for the issuance of Debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $1,215,732, at an exchange rate equal to ninety percent (90%) of the purchase price paid in the Offering.
9
The Debentures are secured against all the tangible and intangible assets of the Company.
The funds raised from the sale of the Units will be used for marketing and new product development and design, as well as general working capital requirements.
Other Financing
On April 7, 2014, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain purchasers pursuant to which we agreed to issue 6% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes (the “SPA Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $1,083,797. As consideration, the Company (i) received cash proceeds equal to $878,704 (the “Cash Proceeds”), of which $50,000 was received subsequent to April 30, 2014; (ii) exchanged a promissory note with an outstanding amount of $76,388, being the principal and accrued interest due under a convertible promissory note dated December 24, 2013 for the issuance of a SPA Note in the same amount; and (iii) exchanged a promissory note with an outstanding amount of $128,705, being the remaining principal amount due under a convertible promissory note dated October 2, 2013 for the issuance of a SPA Note in the same amount.
The principal amount of $1,083,797 were to mature on April 7, 2015 (the “Maturity Date”) and bears interest at the rate of 6% per annum, payable on the Maturity Date. The principal amount of the SPA Notes and all acquired and unpaid interest thereon were contractually exchanged for securities issued by the Company in connection with the Offering, as defined and described above, at an exchange rate equal to ninety percent (90%) of the aggregate purchase price paid in the Offering.
Agency Agreement with Kalamalka Partners
On August 10, 2012, we entered into the Agency Agreement with Kalamalka Partners and certain lenders (the “Lenders”) as set out in the Agency Agreement whereby we agreed to borrow up to $800,000 from the Lenders under a revolving loan arrangement by the issuance of Notes from time to time as such funds are required by us. The Notes are secured by a general security agreement over the present and future assets of the Company and were bearing interest at 12% per annum, calculated and payable monthly. The principal amount outstanding under any Note and all accrued and unpaid interest therein, were convertible into common shares at $0.75 per share at any time at the option of the Lender. These terms were later amended, as described below.
During the year ended January 31, 2013, we issued Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $500,000 and an aggregate of 100,000 share purchase warrants to the Lenders. Each of the Lender Warrants were exercisable into one common share as follows: 25,000 Lender Warrants are exercisable at $0.25 until August 10, 2015, 25,000 Lender Warrants are exercisable at $0.50 until August 10, 2015 and 50,000 Lender Warrants are exercisable at $0.25 until August 10, 2014.
This financing allowed us to fund inventory levels beyond initial purchase orders so we could have sufficient inventory on hand. It also allowed us to finance accounts receivable in an efficient and economical way.
Funds advanced under the loan were initially restricted for inventory and accounts receivable whereby we could fund up to 90% of the Company’s accounts receivable and inventory (the “Borrowing Margin Requirements”). “Inventory” included raw materials in transit and in our possession, materials in the course of production, work in progress and unsold finished goods, all valued at cost. Receivables were marginable until 60 days from the invoice date, after which time such receivables had no value for margining purposes, except that up to $10,000 of receivables were marginable if such receivables were more than 60 days old but less than 90 days old.
During the year ended January 31, 2013, our borrowing exceeded the required margins and these Notes entered into default. As a result, on July 22, 2013, we entered into an Amendment Agreement with Kalamalka and the Lenders. Pursuant to the Amendment Agreement, we amended the Notes to reduce the conversion price from $0.75 to $0.50 per share and amended the terms of the Lender Warrants, Bridge Loan Warrants and Agent’s Warrants such that the expiry of all of the warrants was extended by three years. In addition, the Amendment Agreement reduced the total commitment of the revolving loan facility from $800,000 to the $500,000 already advanced. As a result, we were unable to obtain further advances under this loan arrangement.

During the year ended January 31, 2014, we entered into another Agency and Interlender Agreement with Kalamalka, and certain lenders whereby we agreed to borrow up to an additional $300,000. On November 14, 2013, we made an initial drawdown of $100,000 under the loan and, on November 26, 2013, we drew down a second tranche of $100,000. In connection with these drawdowns, we issued an aggregate of 250,000 share purchase warrants to the lenders and an aggregate of 250,000 share purchase warrants to Kalamalka as consideration for facilitating the loans. Each warrant is exercisable into one common share of our stock at a price of $0.10 per share for a period of three years.
These notes were initially bearing interest at a rate of 12% per annum, calculated and payable at maturity on January 31, 2014. The principal amount outstanding under these notes may be converted into shares of our common stock at a price of $0.25 per share at any time at the option of the lenders. Repayment of the notes is secured by general security agreements in favour of Kalamalka, as agent for the lenders.
During the three months ended April 30, 2014, we entered into Amendment Agreements with Kalamalka and the Lenders. In connection with the Amendment Agreements, we amended several convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $600,000 as follows: (i) we extended the due date of the Notes to October 1, 2016; (ii) we reduced the interest rate accruing under the Notes to 6% per annum, calculated and payable quarterly, in cash or in kind; (iii) we removed the Borrowing Margin Requirements; (iv) we reduced the conversion price on Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $400,000 from $0.50 per share to $0.25 per share. As consideration for entering into these amendments, 500,000 share purchase warrants exercisable at a price of $0.50 until August 10, 2018 held by Kalamalka were exchanged for 600,000 warrants exercisable at a price of $0.15 for a period of 5 years from the date of issuance (“New Warrants”) and we issued an additional 1,800,000 New Warrants.
Also during the three months ended April 30, 2014, we entered into a Conversion Agreement with an additional Lender, pursuant to which we agreed to issue an aggregate of 1,018,685 shares, at a conversion price of $0.10 per share, to settle a Note in the amount of $100,000 plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon of $1,868. These shares were issued subsequent to April 30, 2014 and consequently will be recorded in our financial statements on the date the shares were issued in satisfaction of the indebtedness.
Further, during the three months ended April 30, 2014, the other remaining principal balance of $75,000 plus accrued interest was converted into a SPA Note, as defined and described above.
JMJ Financial
On November 13, 2013, we issued a promissory note in the principal amount of up to $500,000 plus accrued and unpaid interest and any other fees and; on November 13, 2013, we received $100,000 pursuant to this new promissory note, after a 10% original issue discount.
The maturity date for the promissory note is November 13, 2015 and the principal sum, plus any accrued but unpaid interest thereon, of the promissory note was convertible, at any time by the lender, into shares of our common stock at the lesser of $0.265 or 60% of the lowest trade price in the 25 trading days prior to the conversion. In addition, a one-time interest charge of 12% was applied to the principal sum.
Subsequent to April 30, 2014, we entered into a Note Termination Agreement, pursuant to which we agreed to settle all amounts due under the promissory note by (i) issuing an aggregate of 330,000 shares to the lender, at a conversion price of $0.12 per share, in connection with the conversion of the principal amount of $40,000 of such note; and (ii) making a cash payment of $175,000.

Trend Time Development Limited
During the second quarter, we received $75,000 in respect of a promissory note dated August 1, 2013 in the principal amount of $75,000. The promissory note matures on February 1, 2014 and bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum payable at maturity. The note may be repaid at any time before maturity without notice, bonus or penalty.
During the three months ended April 30, 2014, we entered into a debt settlement agreement with this lender, pursuant to which we agreed to issue 796,850 common shares of our Company in full and final settlement of this note, along with accrued interest of $4,850. These shares were issued subsequent to April 30, 2014 and consequently will be recorded in our financial statements on the date the shares were issued in satisfaction of the indebtedness.
Alan Aaron
On September 4, 2013 we issued a promissory note in the principal amount of $150,000 plus accrued and unpaid interest and any other fees (the “September 4 Note”). The promissory note was due on January 4, 2014, repayable in equal semi-monthly installments of $21,562 over the term of the note. The note incurred a one-time interest charge of 15% or $22,500.
On January 13, 2014, we issued a promissory note in the principal amount of $309,062 to this same lender, which was comprised of: (i) $250,000 consideration received; (ii) a one-time interest charge of $37,500, being 15% of the proceeds received (the “OID”); and (iii) an amount of $21,562, being the remaining principal balance due on the September 4 Note.
The promissory note is repayable in five monthly instalments of $41,667 over the term of the note plus one final balloon payment of $63,229 at its maturity on July 13, 2014. We may repay the promissory note at any time before maturity without notice, bonus or penalty.
The OID is convertible, at the option of the lender, at maturity of the note into shares of our common stock at a price of $0.10 per share.
Canfund Ventures Corporation
On October 4, 2013, we issued a convertible promissory note to one lender in the principal amount of $300,000 plus accrued and unpaid interest and any other fees. The note matured on February 9, 2014, incurred a one-time interest charge of 15% and was repayable in equal semi-monthly installments over the term of the note. The note entitles the lender, at its election, at any time on or prior to maturity, to convert all or any portion of the principal amount and any interest outstanding thereon into shares of our common stock at the price of $0.25 per share.
During the three months ended April 30, 2014, the remaining principal balance due under this note of $128,704 was converted into a SPA Note, as defined and described above.
Future Financing
At April 30, 2014, we required further financing to implement our proposed business plan.
Working Capital (Consolidated) | | April 30, 2014 | | | Jan 31, 2014 | |
| | (unaudited) | | | (audited) | |
Current Assets | $ | 1,197,402 | | $ | 861,049 | |

Working Capital (Deficit) | $ | (1,379,793 | ) | $ | (1,439,384 | ) |
During the three months ended April 30, 2014, we increased our working capital position as follows;
(i) | we extended the maturity date and certain other terms of other current obligations in the aggregate amount of $600,000, thus improving our working capital position; and |
12
(ii) | we received cash proceeds of $828,704 in connection with the issuance of 6% senior secured convertible promissory notes |
Subsequent to April 30, 2014, in connection with a private placement offering, we raised aggregate gross proceeds of $6,159,482 through the issuance of units consisting of convertible debentures and share purchase warrants. Further, we settled short terms obligations totaling $221,554 through the issuance of 2,145,535 shares of our common stock. As a result of these significant events, management of the company believes we have sufficient working capital to implement our business plan over the next twelve months.

Cash used in operating activity outflows was financed through funds raised in the issuance of short term promissory notes.
Investing Activities
Investing activities used cash of $5,000 during the three months ended April 30, 2014, compared to $505 for the comparative period. Investing activities in the current period included cash outlays for some retail displays. We expect to incur significant costs related to patent and trademark acquisitions, maintenance and protection as we develop new products.
Financing Activities
Financing activities provided cash of $635,758 for the three month period ended April 30, 2014, compared to $532,930 for the comparative period.

Proceeds from financing activities during the three months ended April 30, 2013 mostly included funds received related to private placements.
Commitments and capital expenditures
We do not anticipate that we will expend any significant amount on capital expenditures like equipment over the next twelve months or enter into any other material commitments.
Disclosure of Outstanding Share Data
As of June 23, 2014, there were 36,373,884 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding.

Critical Accounting Policies
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires that we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our actual results may differ significantly from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We believe that of our significant accounting policies, which are described in Note 3 to our annual financial statements, the following accounting policies involve a greater degree of judgment and complexity. Accordingly, the following policies are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our financial condition and results of operations
Revenue Recognition, Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Sales are recorded when title and risk of loss has passed to the customer, when persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement exists, the selling price is fixed and determinable and collectability is reasonable assured. Significant management judgments and estimates must be made in connection with determination of revenue to be recognized in any accounting period in respect of the timing of when the applicable revenue recognition criteria have been met. If we made different judgments or utilized different estimates for any period material differences in the amount and timing of revenue recognized could result
Accounts receivables consist of amounts due from customers and are recorded upon the shipment of product to customers. Credit terms are extended to customers in the normal course of business and no collateral is required. The Company estimates an allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical losses, the existing economic conditions and the financial stability of its customers. Accounts receivable are written off when deemed uncollectible. Significant management judgment is involved in making the determination with respect to uncollectible amounts.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is determined using the weighted average method, which under the circumstances, management believes will provide for the most practical basis for the measurement of periodic income. Management periodically reviews inventory for slow moving or obsolete items and consider realizability based on the Company’s marketing strategies and sales forecasts to determine if an allowance is necessary. If market value is below cost then an allowance is created to adjust the inventory carrying amount to reflect this.
Assumptions and estimates about the recoverability of certain inventory may be subject to significant judgment. A variety of factors must be incorporated into these estimates and assumptions such as industry and economic trends and internal factors such as changes in our business and forecasts.
Impairment of Long-Lived Asset
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carry amounts may not be recoverable, or on an annual basis, where appropriate. Such a review involves assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not (that is, a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that a long-lived asset is impaired.
If the Company assesses that there is a likelihood of impairment, then the Company will perform a quantitative analysis comparing the carrying value of the assets with the estimated future net undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets, including cash flows from disposition. Should the sum of the expected future net cash flows be less than the carrying value, the company would recognize an impairment loss at that date for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value.
14
Assumptions and estimates about future values and remaining useful lives of our intangible and other long–lived assets are complex and subjective. These estimates and assumptions may include revenue growth rates and operating margins used to calculate projected future cash flows and risk adjusted discounted rates and future economic and market conditions. If applicable, our long–term financial forecast represent the best estimate that our management has at this time and we believe that its underlying assumptions are reasonable. Management has determined that no impairment indicators currently exists.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates we made are those relating to uncollectible receivables, inventory valuation and obsolescence, and stock-based compensation expense.
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
ASC Topic 718,Compensation – Stock Compensation, requires that compensation expense for employee stock-based compensation be recognized over the requisite service period based on the fair value of the award, at the date of grant.
Stock–based compensation represents the cost related to stock–based awards granted to employees and non–employee consultants. We measure stock–based compensation cost at measurement date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and generally recognize the cost as expense on a straight–line basis (net of estimated forfeitures) over the employee requisite service period or the period during which the related services are provided by the non–employee consultants and the options are earned. We estimate the fair value of stock options using a Black–Scholes option valuation model, which utilizes various assumptions and estimates that are subject to management judgment.
As the Company has insufficient historical data on which to estimate expected future share price volatility, the Company has estimated expected share price volatility based on the historical share price volatility of comparable entities. The expected life of options granted has been determined utilizing the "simplified" method as prescribed by the SEC's Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 110 Share–Based Payment. As the Company has had limited trading history, we estimated the fair value of our common shares with reference to the subscription price of the most recent share offerings, for which the funds raised were being used to provide financing to the Company. The risk–free interest rate is based on a treasury instrument whose term is consistent with the expected term of the stock options. We have not paid and do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our shares of common stock; therefore, the expected dividend yield is assumed to be zero. In addition, ASC 718 requires companies to utilize an estimated forfeiture rate when calculating the expense for the period. We applied an estimated forfeiture rate of 0% in determining the expense recorded in our consolidated statement of operations given our limited forfeiture experience history.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On May 28, 2014, the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) issued a converged standard on revenue recognition from contracts with customers, ASU 2014-09 (Topic 606 and IFRS 15). This standard will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off balance sheet arrangements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide information under this item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based on that evaluation, our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. The ineffectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was due to the material weaknesses disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on May 15, 2014.
We intend to take appropriate and reasonable steps to make the necessary improvements to remediate these deficiencies. However, due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties has not always been possible and may not be economically feasible.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended April 30, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
Subsequent to April 30, 2014;
(1) | Ms. Carole Hochman accepted the appointment by the board of directors of the company to serve as the Company Chief Executive Officer and Chief Creative Officer, and to serve as a director of the Company. |
| |
(2) | Mr. Michael Flanagan accepted the appointment by the board of directors of the company to serve as the Company Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer. |
These changes will have a material effect on our internal control over financial reporting as it introduces new oversight roles in the process.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We know of no material, existing or pending legal proceedings against our company, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide information under this item. However, current and prospective investors are encouraged to review the risks set forth in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2014.
