NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | Basis of Presentation This summary of accounting policies for Gridiron is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP” accounting) and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates are used when accounting for fair value calculations related to embedded conversion features of outstanding convertible notes payable. Cash For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents to the extent the funds are not being held for investment purposes. The Company had $774,468 and $25 of cash and no cash equivalents as of August 31, 2018 and August 31, 2017 respectively. As of August 31, 2018, the Company had cash of $524,443 with one financial institution in excess of the FDIC insured limit of $250,000. Revenue recognition The Company follows paragraph 605-10-S99 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair value of certain of the Company’s financial instruments including cash, account payable, accrued expenses, notes payable, and other accrued liabilities approximate cost because of their short maturities. The Company measures and reports fair value in accordance with ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value investments. Fair value, as defined in ASC 820, is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value of an asset should reflect its highest and best use by market participants, principal (or most advantageous) markets, and an in-use or an in-exchange valuation premise. The fair value of a liability should reflect the risk of nonperformance, which includes, among other things, the Company’s credit risk. Valuation techniques are generally classified into three categories: the market approach; the income approach; and the cost approach. The selection and application of one or more of the techniques may require significant judgment and are primarily dependent upon the characteristics of the asset or liability, and the quality and availability of inputs. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value under ASC 820 must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. ASC 820 also provides fair value hierarchy for inputs and resulting measurement as follows: Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability that are supported by little or no market activity, and that are significant to the fair values. Fair value measurements are required to be disclosed by the Level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements in their entirety fall. Fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (in Level 3 measurements) are subject to expanded disclosure requirements including a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances, separately presenting changes during the period attributable to the following: (i) total gains or losses for the period (realized and unrealized), segregating those gains or losses included in earnings, and a description of where those gains or losses included in earning are reported in the statement of income. As discussed in Note 7 – Warrants and Derivative Liability, Income Taxes Income taxes are accounted for under the assets and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Use of net operating loss carry forwards for income tax purposes may be limited by Internal Revenue Code section 382 if a change of ownership occurs. Principals of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements represent the results of Gridiron BioNutrients, Inc,; its wholly owned subsidiary, GridIron Ventures and the assets, processes, and results therefrom. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. All financial information has been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are carried at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed in the period incurred. Renewals and betterments that materially extend the life of the assets are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in income for the period. Depreciation is computed for financial statement purposes on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the related assets and the modified accelerated cost recovery system for federal income tax purposes. The estimated useful lives of depreciable assets are: Estimated Useful Lives Computer Equipment 3 years The Company’s property and equipment consisted of the following as of August 31, 2018 and August 31, 2017: August 31, 2018 2017 Computer Equipment $ 2,467 $ - Accumulated depreciation (530 ) - Net book value $ 1,937 $ - Depreciation expense for the year ended August 31, 2018 and period ended August 31, 2017 was $530 and $0, respectively. Inventories Inventories consist primarily of ready to sell product and packing materials and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out method. The Company periodically assesses the recoverability of its inventory and reduces the carrying value of the inventory when items are determined to be obsolete, defective or in excess of forecasted sales requirements. Inventory write-downs for excess, defective and obsolete inventory are recorded as a cost of revenue. The Company did not have any write downs of inventory during the year ended August 31, 2018 or period ended August 31, 2017, respectively. Inventory balances were $53,110 and $0 as of August 31, 2018 and August 31, 2017, respectively. Notes Payable As of August 31, 2018, and August 31, 2017, the Company had two notes payable with a principal balance of $49,500 and $0, respectively, owed to two separate noteholders. Each note payable is unsecure with one bearing interest at 5% and the other at 0% respectively. As of August 31, 2018, the Company had an outstanding accrued interest balance of $475, which has been included in accounts payable and accrued expenses. Basic Income (Loss) Per Share Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity, note as they would have been anti-dilutive. The conversion of preferred shares and warrants to commons shares could potentially bring the amount of common shares to a total of 183,746,071. The preferred conversion and warrants would account for 50,880,000 additional shares bringing along with the 132,637,500 outstanding at August 31, 2018 plus an additional 228,571 that have not been issued yet. There were no potentially dilutive shares outstanding during the periods ended August 31, 2018 and August 31, 2017 respectively.

The Company incurred advertising costs totaling $61,812 during the year ended August 31, 2018 and $0 during the period ended August 31, 2017.

There was $0 and $200 of stock based compensation during the year ended August 31, 2018 and period ended August 31, 2017.
