Eco Science Solutions (OTC: ESSI) posts Q1 2026 loss and flags going concern risk
Eco Science Solutions, Inc. reported minimal early-stage revenue and ongoing heavy losses for the three months ended April 30, 2026. The company generated net revenue of $253 from initial Herbo Pay activity but recorded a net loss of $242,777, driven by operating expenses of $232,482 and interest expense.
Liquidity remains very tight, with only $7,833 in cash and total assets of $116,027 against total liabilities of $1,427,768. The working capital deficit was $1,406,185, and accumulated deficit reached $69,526,830, leading management to state there is substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The company completed large non-cash debt settlements in the prior year, leaving a $350,000 promissory note to Robbins LLP outstanding and in default. A 1-for-25 reverse stock split became effective on May 4, 2026, with 24,952,656 common shares outstanding as of June 19, 2026.

Insights
ESSI shows severe financial strain, minimal revenue, and defaulted debt despite past balance-sheet cleanup.
Eco Science Solutions has just begun generating revenue, reporting only $253 in net revenue for the three months ended April 30, 2026, while incurring operating expenses of $232,482. This produced a net loss of $242,777, underscoring that the business is still far from self-funding.
The balance sheet is highly stressed: cash was $7,833 with total assets of $116,027 versus liabilities of $1,427,768, including a defaulted $350,000 note to Robbins LLP. A working capital deficit of $1,406,185 and accumulated deficit of $69,526,830 led management to disclose substantial doubt about continuing as a going concern.
Earlier non-cash debt-for-equity settlements significantly reduced interest-bearing obligations but also resulted in major dilution and a subsequent 1-for-25 reverse stock split effective May 4, 2026. Future filings will clarify whether Herbo and Herbo Pay adoption and any new financing meaningfully improve liquidity or merely offset ongoing losses.

On January 31, 2026, the Company completed a series of non-cash debt settlement transactions pursuant to which a substantial portion of outstanding liabilities was extinguished through the issuance of common stock. These transactions resulted in a significant increase in issued and outstanding shares and a corresponding reduction in liabilities, and gave rise to the recognition of a material gain on debt settlement in the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended January 31, 2026.
On March 9, 2026, the Board of Directors and stockholders holding a majority of the Company’s voting power approved a
Pursuant to the reverse stock split, every twenty-five issued and outstanding shares of common stock were automatically combined into one issued and outstanding share of common stock. Fractional shares resulting from the reverse stock split were rounded in accordance with the terms of the corporate action. The reverse stock split did not affect the number of authorized shares of common stock or the par value per share.
In accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, all share and per-share amounts presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, including shares issued and outstanding, earnings (loss) per share, weighted average shares outstanding, exercise prices, conversion prices, and all other per-share data for all periods presented, have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split, unless otherwise indicated.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The accounting policies conform to U.S. GAAP. There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies since the last annual report as filed on Form 10-K.
Basis of Presentation Unaudited Interim Financial Information
The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and include the accounts of Eco Science Solutions, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Ga-Du Corporation, through the date of dissolution, April 3, 2025. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all the normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations as of and for the periods presented. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year or any future period.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the interim information presented not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Report on Form 10-K filed on June 9, 2026, for the years ended January 31, 2026 and 2025.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization on property and equipment are determined using the straight-line method over the three to five year estimated useful lives of the assets.
Technology, Licensing Rights and Software (Intangible Assets)
Technology, licensing rights, and software are recorded at cost and capitalized. These assets are evaluated for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.
During the year ended January 31, 2024, the Company acquired certain commercial software (see Note 3) for a purchase price of $
No impairment expense was recognized for the periods ending April 30, 2026.
The Company amortizes the software over an estimated useful life of three years on a straight-line basis starting on March 1, 2026, the date the asset was placed into service.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Revenue Recognition
Transaction and Processing Revenue (Net)
The Company provides transaction processing and settlement enablement modules to merchants. The Company evaluates its revenue arrangements under ASC 606 to determine it acts as an agent. Because the underlying payment processing, clearing, and settlement services are controlled by third-party sponsor banks and card networks prior to delivery to the merchant, and because the Company does not assume primary inventory or fulfillment risk for the transaction transmission, the Company concludes it acts as an agent.
Accordingly, revenues from transaction processing are recorded net of interchange fees, assessment fees, and bank processing costs remitted directly to financial institutions. Revenue is recognized at the point in time the transaction is successfully authorized and executed.
Segment Reporting
Operating segments are comprised of the components of an entity in which separate information is available for evaluation by the Company’s chief operating decision maker, or group of decision makers, in determining how to allocate resources in evaluating performance. The Company consists of a single reporting segment providing clients a cloud-based ERP platform (“Herbo”) and a financial services platform (“Herbo Pay”) to support the unique end-to-end business requirements of regulated, cash-intensive industries. While the Company operates both Herbo and Herbo Pay, these offerings are considered sufficiently similar to representing one operating segment.
The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is its Chief Executive Officer. The accounting policies for our software platforms will include revenue recognition applicable to software-as-a-service including monthly installments for licenses to our platforms over specific periods of time. During the three months ended April 30, 2026, the Company commenced limited revenue-generating activities through its HerboPay platform and recognized net revenue of $
The CODM will review performance upon commencement of sales based on gross profit, operating profit, and net earnings. Operating profit is reviewed to monitor the operating and administrative expenses of the Company. Profitability is important to the Company’s ability to grow and expand operations and strategic initiatives. The Company does not have any operations or sources of revenue outside of the United States. The Company does not presently have any customer representing more than 10% of total revenues for any period presented. Accordingly, CODM considers operating expenses, and other income (expenses) of our single operating segment as reported on the statement of operations and considers our current and total assets as recorded on the balance sheet. There are no additional expenses or asset information that are supplemental to those disclosed in these consolidated financial statements that are regularly provided to the CODM. The measure of segment profit or loss used by the CODM is consolidated net loss as reported in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Significant segment expenses regularly provided to the CODM for the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025 consisted of management and consulting fees of $
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Share-Based Payments, using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Convertible Instruments and Debt Settlements
The Company accounts for convertible debt instruments in accordance with ASC 470, Debt, as amended by ASU 2020-06, and evaluates embedded conversion features under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, to determine whether such features require bifurcation and separate accounting as derivative liabilities.
For convertible instruments that may be settled in a variable number of shares, the Company evaluates whether the arrangement results in derivative liability classification or should be accounted for as a conventional debt instrument. To the extent such features do not require derivative accounting, any associated debt discount is recorded and amortized over the term of the instrument using the effective interest method.
The Company accounts for the extinguishment of debt in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments. Gains or losses on extinguishment are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations as the difference between the carrying amount of the debt extinguished and the fair value of consideration transferred.
When debt is settled through the issuance of common stock, the transaction is measured based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued on the date of settlement, as determined in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. If the fair value of the equity instruments issued is not reliably measurable, the transaction is measured based on the carrying amount of the debt extinguished.
Fair Value Measurements
The Company measures certain financial and non-financial assets and liabilities at fair value in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. Fair value is defined as 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 Company uses observable market data when available and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs. Fair value measurements are classified within a three-level hierarchy based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 inputs are observable inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1; and Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions.
The Company applies fair value principles in connection with equity instruments issued in non-cash transactions, including debt settlement transactions.
Leases
The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842, Leases. The Company determines whether an arrangement is a lease at inception. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized for leases with terms greater than twelve months based on the present value of future lease payments. The Company has elected the short-term lease exemption for leases with an initial term of twelve months or less.
As of April 30, 2026, the Company did not have any material lease arrangements.
Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible instruments using the if-converted method. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of diluted net income (loss) per share if their effect would be anti-dilutive.
All share and per-share amounts presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Company’s 1-for-25 reverse stock split effective May 4, 2026.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Income Taxes
The Company follows ASC 740 – Income Taxes, which requires the use of the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments require enhanced disclosures regarding significant segment expenses and other segment information on both an annual and interim basis. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted this guidance during the year ended January 31, 2026. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This update requires enhanced disclosures related to income tax rate reconciliations and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The amendments are effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted this guidance for the year ended January 31, 2026, on a prospective basis. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. This update introduces a practical expedient allowing entities to assume that current conditions remain unchanged over the life of certain financial assets when estimating expected credit losses. The Company early adopted this guidance as of January 31, 2026 on a prospective basis. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements due to the limited nature of the Company’s receivable balances.
The Company has adopted ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40), which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by eliminating certain separation models and requiring that convertible instruments be accounted for as a single liability unless they contain features requiring separate accounting as derivatives. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Pending Adoption
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This update requires additional disclosures to disaggregate expense line items presented on the face of the consolidated statements of operations, including amounts related to employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and other significant components. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods thereafter. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. This update replaces the prescriptive development stage model with a principles-based, probable-to-complete recognition threshold for capitalization of internal-use software costs. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2028. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow Scope Improvements. This update clarifies interim disclosure requirements and introduces a general disclosure principle requiring entities to disclose events occurring after the most recent annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The amendments are effective for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

During the three months ended April 30, 2026, the Company generated net revenue of $253, compared to $nil during the three months ended April 30, 2025. The revenue was generated through the Company's Herbo Pay platform, which commenced revenue-generating operations during the current quarter. Customer deposits reflected on the Company’s balance sheets represent prefunded balances held for future platform usage and do not represent earned revenue until the related services are provided.
During the three months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred total operating expenses of $232,482 and $254,295, respectively, a decrease of $21,813. Management and consulting fees were $122,500 (2026) and $125,500 (2025). Research, development, and promotion expense decreased to $62,033 (2026) from $98,717 (2025), reflecting fewer hours allocated to the Company's software development in the current period. Legal, accounting and audit fees increased to $30,809 (2026) from $17,459 (2025) as a result of increased costs for audit, accounting and legal fees incurred in the period. Office supplies and other general expenses were $11,584 (2026), compared to $12,619 (2025). The Company also recorded amortization expense of $5,556 (2026) and $nil (2025) following the commencement of amortization of its eXPO software intangible asset on March 1, 2026.
The Company recorded total other expenses of $10,548 during the three months ended April 30, 2026, consisting of interest expense, compared to total other expenses of $19,126 during the three months ended April 30, 2025. The decrease reflects the extinguishment, during the year ended January 31, 2026, of substantially all of the Company's interest-bearing obligations other than the $350,000 promissory note, which remains outstanding and in default.
The net loss for the three months ended April 30, 2026 was $242,777, compared to a net loss of $273,421 for the three months ended April 30, 2025.
| 5 |
| Table of Contents |
Currently, a significant portion of the Company's total operating expenses are management and consulting fees and research and development costs incurred to bring the Company's software platforms to market, including programming of technology, build-out of customer infrastructure, development of training materials, generation of marketing materials, and efforts to present the Company's products before regulators in various jurisdictions.
Statements of Cash Flows for the Three Months ended April 30, 2026 and 2025
During the three months ended April 30, 2026, the Company used net cash in operating activities of $24,866, compared to $70,593 during the three months ended April 30, 2025. Net cash used in operating activities during the current period reflected the net loss of $242,777, adjusted for non-cash amortization of $5,556 and net increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses ($53,067), related party payables ($129,055), and customer deposits ($5,858), together with a decrease in prepaid expenses of $24,375.
The Company had no investing activities during either period.
The Company had no financing activities during the three months ended April 30, 2026, compared to $69,475 of net cash provided by financing activities during the three months ended April 30, 2025, which consisted of advances from related party loans.
As a result, cash decreased by $24,866 during the three months ended April 30, 2026 (2025 – a decrease of $1,118), and the Company had cash of $7,833 at April 30, 2026 (January 31, 2026 – $32,699).
Plan of Operation
The Company continues to develop and commercialize its Herbo ERP and Herbo Pay software platforms for use by businesses operating in regulated and operationally complex industries. During the three months ended April 30, 2026, the Company continued to incur costs to expand and develop its software suite and commenced limited revenue-generating operations. The Company's need for ongoing capital by way of loans, sales of equity and/or convertible notes is expected to continue during the current fiscal year until the Company is able to establish revenues from operations sufficient to cover its operational overhead. The Company has relied heavily on loans and advances from related parties in recent periods. There are no assurances additional capital will be available to the Company on acceptable terms, or at all.
Future funding could result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, the incurrence of debt, and contingent liabilities, which could materially adversely affect the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition. Any future funding might require the Company to obtain additional equity or debt financing, which might not be available on terms favorable to the Company, or at all, and such financing, if available, might be dilutive.
Going Concern
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated significant revenues to date and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. As of April 30, 2026, the Company had a working capital deficit of $1,406,185 and an accumulated deficit of $69,526,830. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability to raise equity or debt financing, and the attainment of profitable operations from the Company's future business. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of April 30, 2026 and January 31, 2026, the Company had $7,833 and $32,699 in cash, respectively, and total current assets of $21,583 and $70,824, respectively. As of April 30, 2026 and January 31, 2026, the Company had an intangible asset, net, of $94,444 and $100,000, respectively, and total assets of $116,027 and $170,824, respectively. Total liabilities at April 30, 2026 and January 31, 2026 were $1,427,768 and $1,239,788, respectively. The Company has insufficient funds to meet its ongoing operations and has historically been funded through loans and advances from its sole officer, Mr. Michael Rountree.
The Company has limited financial resources available outside loans and advances from its officers and directors. There can be no guarantee the Company will continue to receive proceeds from loans, related party advances or other financing sufficient to meet its ongoing operational overhead as it continues to implement its business plan. Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern. Additional working capital may be sought through debt or equity private placements, notes payable to related parties or other available funding sources, or a combination of these. The ability to raise necessary financing will depend on many factors, including economic and market conditions prevailing at the time financing is sought. There is no guarantee the Company will be able to obtain financing if and when required.

| Table of Contents |
Future Financings
We anticipate continuing to rely on related party and third-party loans and equity sales of our common shares and/or shares for services rendered in order to continue to fund our business operations in the event of ongoing operational shortfalls. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing shareholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of our equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our operations.
Contractual Obligations
As a “smaller reporting company,” the Company is not required to provide tabular disclosure of contractual obligations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company's financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of the Company's unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance 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, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. The Company believes that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of its financial statements is critical to an understanding of its financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company's estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
Intangible Assets
The Company's intangible asset consists of the eXPO software platform, which is recorded at cost and tested for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Amortization is recorded on a straight-line basis over the asset's estimated three-year useful life, commencing March 1, 2026, the date the asset was placed in service. No impairment was recognized during the three months ended April 30, 2026.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606. Transaction and processing revenue generated through the Herbo Pay platform is recognized on a net basis, as the Company acts as an agent in arranging payment processing services that are controlled by third-party sponsor banks and card networks. Revenue is recognized at the point in time a transaction is authorized and executed. Amounts received from customers in advance of the related services being provided are recorded as customer deposits, a current liability, until the related performance obligations are satisfied.
Going Concern
The preparation of the Company's financial statements requires management to assess the Company's ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On October 20, 2017, a purported shareholder of the Company, Mr. Ian Bell, filed a verified stockholder derivative complaint against the Individual Defendants in the United States District Court for the District of Hawaii (the “First Hawaii Complaint”). On January 11, 2018, a purported shareholder of the Company, Mr. Marc D'Annunzio, filed a verified stockholder derivative complaint against the Individual Defendants in the United States District Court for the District of Hawaii (the “Second Hawaii Complaint”). On February 9, 2018, the Hawaii federal court consolidated the First Hawaii Complaint and the Second Hawaii Complaint (the “Consolidated Hawaii Action”). On December 10, 2018, plaintiffs in the Consolidated Hawaii Action filed their amended complaint (the “Amended Hawaii Complaint”). The Company is identified as a nominal defendant, against which no claims are plead. The Amended Hawaii Complaint arises out of alleged materially false and misleading statements or omissions from SEC filings and/or public statements by or on behalf of the Company. The Amended Hawaii Complaint asserts claims on behalf of the Company for breach of fiduciary duty, aiding and abetting breaches of fiduciary duties, waste of corporate assets, and unjust enrichment against the Individual Defendants, and seeks damages, restitution and disgorgement, and an order directing the Company and all individual defendants to take all necessary actions to reform and improve the Company's corporate governance.
On September 21, 2020, the United States District Court for the District of Hawaii issued an order in the action captioned In re Eco Science Solutions, Inc. Shareholder Derivative Litigation, Lead Civil No. 1:17-cv-00530-LEW-WRP (D. Haw.), preliminarily approving a proposed settlement (the “Settlement”) as set forth in a Stipulation of Settlement dated September 21, 2020 (the “Stipulation”), by and among (i) plaintiffs Mr. Ian Bell and Mr. Marc D'Annunzio, individually and derivatively on behalf of Eco Science Solutions, Inc.; (ii) certain of the Company's current and former officers, directors and consultants; and (iii) the Company. Pursuant to the Court's Preliminary Approval Order, a hearing was held on November 17, 2020, and the Court approved the terms of the Settlement in an Order issued December 3, 2020, including the following:
(1) The resignation of Jeffery Taylor as Chairman of the Board, and Don Taylor as Chief Financial Officer and a member of the Board of Directors;
(2) Appointment of Carl Mudd, or such individual with similar background and qualifications, to serve as Ombudsman and as Chairman of the Board;
(3) The return by certain shareholders of a cumulative total of 3,500,000 shares of the Company's common stock to treasury for cancellation: (a) Gannon Giguiere – 1,500,000 shares; (b) Jeffery Taylor – 750,000 shares; (c) Don Taylor – 750,000 shares; (d) L John Lewis – 250,000 shares; and (e) S Randall Oveson – 250,000 shares;

(4) The issuance by the Company of 1,400,000 restricted common shares to the law firm of Robbins LLP as consideration for attorney fees;
(5) The entry by the Company into a Promissory Note with the law firm of Robbins LLP in the amount of Three Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($350,000) with respect to legal fees incurred, bearing interest at a rate of six percent (6%) per annum calculated monthly, with all interest and principal due and payable no later than three (3) years from the date of final Settlement approval; and
(6) The immediate forgiveness and cancellation of debt in the amount of One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) held by Phenix Ventures LLC, a company controlled by Gannon Giguiere.
Additionally, the Settlement called for 15% of the Company's revenue and/or any financing raised by the Company to be dedicated toward achieving the objectives, implementation and maintenance of the Governance Reforms.
All of the above-listed items in the Order issued by the Court have been implemented except setting aside 15% of the Company's revenue and/or financing, as the Company has not yet generated any revenue of substance, nor has it secured any financing to date. Mr. Rountree continues to fund the Company with his personal funds, and once the Company begins generating revenue or secures financing, 15% will be put aside. In addition to the foregoing, the following Governance Reforms were set forth:
1. The purchase of Directors' and Officers' Insurance;
2. Appointment of two new, independent Directors;
3. Creation of a board-level Governance Committee;
4. Adoption of Written Corporate Governance Guidelines and Code of Ethics;
5. Creation of an Audit Committee;
6. Enhanced Board Independence;
7. Termination of existing compensation plans;
8. Immediate cessation of current and future business dealings with third party stock promoters;
9. Maintenance of the Company's website;
10. Creation of an Investor Relations Officer;
11. Engagement of In-House and General Counsel;
12. Appointment of a Chief Accounting Officer;
13. Creation of a written Whistleblower Policy;
14. Adoption of a Clawback Policy;
15. Adoption of enhanced conflicts policies and practices;
16. Establishment of documentation of Policies and a Financial Reporting Checklist;
17. Annual assessment of the adequacy of the Company's internal controls;
18. Provision of continuing director education and employee compliance training; and
19. Establishment of board oversight of the Company's expenditures.
Each of the reforms is subject to the judgment of the Ombudsman, Mr. A Carl Mudd, and/or the reconstituted Board, and based on the availability of funding. The agreement calls for the above to be completed within four years; however, the implementation of each remains at the discretion, and subject to the judgment, of Mr. Mudd. To date, certain of the reforms remain to be implemented, as the Company has not generated revenue of substance and currently has one employee. Of the foregoing reforms, one new independent Director has been appointed, an Audit Committee has been appointed consisting solely of Mr. Mudd, the existing compensation plans have been terminated, all dealings with third party stock promoters have ceased, the Company's website is being maintained, and counsel has been engaged. The remaining reforms will be implemented and adopted as funding becomes available and the Company begins generating revenue.
Other than as set out above, the Company knows of no material existing or pending legal proceedings against it, nor is the Company involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of its directors, officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to the Company's interest.
