TRIBUS ENTERPRISES, INC.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2018
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND ORGANIZATION
The Company was incorporated in the State of Washington on March 29, 2017 for the purpose of developing, designing, manufacturing and distributing hand tools. Upon incorporation, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with Tribus Innovations, LLC (“Tribus Innovations”) and acquired all of the outstanding ownership interests of Tribus Innovations. Tribus Innovations was formed on December 1, 2015. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger and these financial statements present the historical financial information of Tribus Innovations from its inception and include the financial information of the Company from the completion of the share exchange agreement on March 29, 2017. The Company has not yet realized revenues from its planned business activities.
NOTE 2 – UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLDIATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods ended December 31, 2018 and for all periods presented herein, have been made.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s March 31, 2018 audited financial statements. The results of operations for the periods ended December 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Tribus Innovations LLC. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated on consolidation.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting control and preventing and detecting fraud. The Company’s system of internal accounting control is designed to assure, among other items, that (1) recorded transactions are valid; (2) all valid transactions are recorded and (3) transactions are recorded in the period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the company for the respective periods being presented.
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
The Company's financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company does not have significant cash or other current assets, nor does it have an established source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern. Under the going concern assumption, an entity is ordinarily viewed as continuing in business for the foreseeable future with neither the intention nor the necessity of liquidation, ceasing trading, or seeking protection from creditors pursuant to laws or regulations. Accordingly, assets and liabilities are recorded on the basis that the entity will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.
TRIBUS ENTERPRISES, INC.
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
December 31, 2018
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN (CONTINUED)
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully execute its plans and eventually attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. During the next year, the Company’s foreseeable cash requirements will relate to continual development of the operations of its business, maintaining its good standing and making the requisite filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the payment of expenses associated with research and development. The Company may experience a cash shortfall and be required to raise additional capital. Historically, it has mostly relied upon internally generated funds and funds from the sale of shares of stock to finance its operations and growth. Management may raise additional capital through future public or private offerings of the Company’s stock or through loans from private investors, although there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such financing. The Company’s failure to do so could have a material and adverse effect upon it and its shareholders. There is substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 4 – PREPAID INVENTORY
During the nine months ended December 31, 2018, the Company made total advances to a third-party manufacturer of $382,000 in exchange for a discount from the negotiated purchase price of future inventory units. The Company will receive a discount of approximately $2.46 per unit from the originally agreed upon purchase price on the first 154,440 individual units of inventory manufactured when purchases begin.
NOTE 5 – CAPITAL STOCK
Authorized
The Company is authorized to issue up to 20,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value Series A Preferred Stock, 5,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value Series B Preferred Stock and 100,000,000 shares of $0.001 par value Common Stock.
The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to 10 votes for each share held. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into 10 shares of Common Stock at the discretion of the Company’s directors. In the event that there is a change of control transaction, each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into 10 shares of Common Stock at the option of the holder. The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to participate in dividends. Dividends are non-cumulative and are at the discretion of the Company’s directors.
The holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to 4 votes for each share held. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into 4 shares of Common Stock at the discretion of the stockholder.

NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
On March 23, 2017, the Company entered into a lease agreement for the rent of warehouse space that terminates on April 30, 2022 which was amended on May 20, 2017. The lease requires future minimum payments as shown below:
Year ending March 31, | |
2019 | | $ | 11,862 | |
2020 | | | 48,757 | |
2021 | | | 50,207 | |
2022 | | | 51,725 | |
2023 | | | 4,321 | |
Total | | $ | 166,872 | |
On November 5, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement to sublet a portion of its office space on a month to month basis. The sublease will continue on a month to month basis until the sublessor provides notice to execute a long term lease or will have the option to assume the Company’s lease. The sublease requires monthly rental payments of $5,700 with the first month being prorated accordingly. The Company records sublease payments received as other income in the statement of operations resulting in other income of $10,640 being recognized during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2018.
NOTE 7 – LOANS PAYABLE
During the prior fiscal year, the Company entered into a loan in order to acquire a vehicle. The loan is repayable over five years at $541 per month, is secured by the vehicle and bears interest at 0%. Management determined that the fair value of the loan was not significantly different from its face value and therefore no discount has been recorded. There was $22,167 and $27,033 due as of December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2018 of which $6,488 and $6,488 was current and $15,679 and $20,545 was long term, respectively.
On July 27, 2018, the Company entered into a loan agreement to borrow $60,000. The loan carries an interest rate of 24.37%, is payable over twelve months and due on July 27, 2019. There was $40,696 and $0 of principal due as of December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2018, respectively.
NOTE 8 – CAPITAL LEASES PAYABLE
The Company accounts for capital leases in accordance with ACS 840-30. During the nine months ended December 31, 2018, the Company entered into seven separate long-term leases for equipment that contain a $1 buyout option upon lease termination as well as others that contain bargain purchase option upon the lease termination. The Company determined these were capital leases based on the minimum buy out price and capitalized the net present value of the leases which totaled $1,162,240 as equipment. The leases require total monthly payments of $34,171.
As of December 31, 2018, there was a total of $1,368,022 of future payments due through June 2023 of which $483,477 are financing charges leaving a total principal balance of $884,545. Of the total principal balance due, $161,143 was current and $723,402 was long term as of December 31, 2018.

General Business Development
The Company was formed on March 29, 2017 in the State of Washington.
Business Strategy
Upon incorporation, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with Tribus Innovations, LLC (“Tribus Innovations”) and acquired all of the outstanding ownership interests of Tribus Innovations. Tribus Innovations was formed on December 1, 2015. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger and these financial statements present the historical financial information of Tribus Innovations from its inception and include the financial information of the Company from the completion of the share exchange agreement on March 29, 2017. The Company has not yet realized revenues from its planned business activities. The membership interests of Tribus Innovations, LLC were all held by the officers and directors of Tribus Enterprises, Inc. The Company acquired 100% of the membership interests of Tribus Innovations, LLC in exchange for 2,600,000 of our common shares and 19,999,998 of our shares of Class A preferred stock. Tribus Innovations is currently a 100% owned subsidiary of the Company.
Tribus LLC was formed in December 2015 to develop, manufacture, and market a compelling product line of innovative ratcheting flare nut wrenches which have aPatent Pending since April of 2016, application number: 15/092,056 Duration of Patent should be a standard of 20 years once the patent is granted by the USPTO. Their initial product line uses traditional manufacturing methods of metal forging, subtractive manufacturing (CNC milling), additive manufacturing (3D printing), and plastic injection molding. Tribus LLC has made several plastic resin prototypes in 2016.
Tribus has produced several wrenches already and is setting up the production line for full production this year.
Products
Tribus LLC’s ratcheting flare nut wrench addresses the market in a way that has never been done before; reducing the time it takes to turn inline fasteners.
• Ease of Use – There are no buttons or switches. In order to reverse the tightening direction, simply remove the tool and rotate it 180°.
• Learning Curve – This works the same as a standard open ended wrench but it has the ability to ratchet, saving valuable time. There will be a very short and slight learning curve as the users will simply need to remove the tool off the fastener and line up the open slots to remove the tool completely off the line.
• Heavy Torque application – Due to the design of the pawls that engage into the ratchet, it has at least 4x more contact surfaces than standard ratcheting wrenches. This will translate to much more application of torque.
• Convenience in tight spaces – Pawls have been designed along with corresponding grooves in the ratchet so users can maximize ratchet pitch. It will only take 2°- 4° to get the ratchet to click. This is crucial in tight spaces where there is very little room to swing the ratchet.
Tribus LLC also has a smartphone application division that has two additional products under development. One is a home garage door automation application, the other is a construction time management application that is completely cloud driven. The garage door automation application is specific to motorcycle riders. The construction time management application provides employers and employees better analytics and can replace traditional time cards punching in & out.
Tribus Innovations’ ratcheting flare nut wrench will be produced for sale in the hand tool industry. Historically there have been limited designs in the ratcheting flare nut wrench sales market such as; Gear Wrench part number 89100 (UPC 099575891007) and the traditional non-ratcheting flare nut wrench. These designs do not allow for small incremental movement in confined spaces, whereas Tribus Innovations’ version of the ratcheting flare nut wrench breaks new ground in this market.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
In Financial Reporting release No. 60, "CAUTIONARY ADVICE REGARDING DISCLOSURE ABOUT CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES" ("FRR 60"), the Securities and Exchange Commission suggested that companies provide additional disclosure and commentary on their most critical accounting policies. In FRR 60, the SEC defined the most critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of a company's financial condition and operating results, and require management to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. Based on this definition, our most critical accounting policies include:going concern, prepaid inventory and capital leases payable.. The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying these most critical accounting policies have a significant impact on the results we report in our financial statements.
