Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Eco Science Solutions, Inc. reported its results for the year ended January 31, 2026, highlighting a large balance-sheet restructuring and early commercialization progress for its HERBO and HERBO Pay software platforms. The company generated no revenue and recorded an operating loss of $958,352, but booked net income of $9,442,219 driven by gains on debt forgiveness and settlement.

On January 31, 2026, Eco Science Solutions issued 22,834,297 restricted common shares at a stated price of $0.70 per share to settle approximately $15,984,008 of accrued compensation, payables, notes, convertible notes, related-party obligations, and interest, recognizing substantial gains. Total liabilities fell to $1,194,853 from $16,669,544 a year earlier, and the accumulated deficit decreased to $69,284,053.

As of January 31, 2026, the company had cash of $32,699, current assets of $70,824, a working capital deficit of $1,124,029, and 24,952,656 common shares outstanding after a subsequent 1‑for‑25 reverse stock split effective May 4, 2026. The auditor and management both note substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern, given recurring losses, very limited cash, and the absence of recurring revenue, even as the company begins limited onboarding of initial paying customers.

Positive

  • Major balance sheet improvement: Total liabilities declined to $1,194,853 at January 31, 2026 from $16,669,544 a year earlier after converting approximately $15,984,008 of debt and payables into equity, producing large gains on debt settlement and forgiveness and reducing the accumulated deficit by over $9.4M.
  • Capital structure reset and market requotation: The company completed a 1‑for‑25 reverse stock split effective May 4, 2026, resolved legacy derivative and note obligations, and saw quotation of its common stock resume on OTC Markets in December 2024, helping clean up its share structure despite significant dilution.

Negative

  • Pre‑revenue status and going concern risk: The company reported zero revenue for fiscal 2026 and 2025, an operating loss of $958,352 in 2026, cash of only $32,699, and a working capital deficit of $1,124,029, with both management and the auditor citing substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.
  • Heavy dilution from debt settlements: On January 31, 2026, the company issued 22,834,297 restricted common shares at a stated price of $0.70 per share to extinguish obligations, increasing outstanding shares (post‑split basis) to 24,952,656 and significantly diluting existing stockholders.
  • Regulatory and legal overhang: HERBO Pay may require money transmitter and related financial services licensing, and serving cannabis‑related businesses exposes the company to evolving federal and state regulatory risk. In addition, a $350,000 promissory note to Robbins LLP is in default with accrued default interest, although no collection litigation is currently disclosed.

Insights

Debt-for-equity swaps transformed the balance sheet, but the business remains pre-revenue with going concern risk.

Eco Science Solutions monetarily reshaped its capital structure by converting about $15.98M of liabilities into equity, recording gains on debt settlement and forgiveness totaling over $10.5M. This cut total liabilities to $1.19M and moved the company to reported net income of $9.44M for FY 2026.

However, the core business is still at an early stage. The company generated no revenue in fiscal 2026 or 2025, has only one employee plus contractors, and ended the year with cash of just $32,699 and a working capital deficit of $1.12M. Both management and the auditor highlight substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

Operationally, HERBO and HERBO Pay target cannabis and other regulated industries, which brings regulatory complexity. The filing notes potential money transmitter licensing, Bank Secrecy Act, anti‑money‑laundering, and privacy obligations, as well as federal cannabis law risk, any of which could influence costs and scalability. Subsequent disclosures in future filings will clarify whether early customer onboarding after January 31, 2026 begins to translate into material recurring SaaS and payment revenue.

reverse stock split financial
"On May 4, 2026, the Company effected a 1-for-25 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock."
A reverse stock split is when a company reduces the number of its shares outstanding, making each share more valuable. For example, if you own 100 shares worth $1 each, a 1-for-10 reverse split would turn your 100 shares into 10 shares worth $10 each. Companies often do this to boost their stock price and appear more stable to investors.
going concern financial
"These conditions raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern."
A going concern is a business that is expected to continue its operations and meet its obligations for the foreseeable future, rather than shutting down or selling off assets. This assumption matters to investors because it indicates stability and ongoing profitability, making the business a more reliable investment. Think of it as believing a restaurant will stay open and serve customers, rather than closing down suddenly.
HERBO Pay financial
"HERBO Pay is a financial services and payment platform designed to integrate with HERBO ERP."
shareholder derivative litigation regulatory
"In re Eco Science Solutions, Inc. Shareholder Derivative Litigation, Lead Civil No. 1:17-cv-00530-LEW-WRP (D. Haw.),"
stock-settled debt financial
"In these instances, the Company recorded stock-settled debt representing the estimated value transferred through the conversion feature."
money transmitter licenses regulatory
"the Company may be required to register as a money services business with FinCEN, obtain money transmitter licenses in one or more states,"
Money transmitter licenses are official permissions granted by government authorities that allow a business to legally transfer money between people or entities. They ensure that companies handling financial transactions follow rules designed to protect consumers and prevent fraud. For investors, these licenses are important because they demonstrate that a business operates within legal boundaries and adheres to financial safety standards.

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

 

Corporate Overview

 

Eco Science Solutions, Inc. (“ESSI,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is focused on the development and commercialization of enterprise software and financial technology solutions designed to support businesses operating in regulated, compliance-intensive, and operationally complex industries.

 

The Company’s principal executive office is located at 300 S. El Camino Real, Suite 206, San Clemente, California 92672. The Company’s telephone number is (833) 464-3726. The Company’s website is www.useherbo.com. Information contained on, or accessible through, the Company’s website is not incorporated by reference into this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

The Company’s primary technology platforms are HERBO, a cloud-based enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) and accounting platform, and HERBO Pay, an integrated financial services and payment platform. HERBO is designed to assist businesses with accounting, inventory management, compliance support, reporting, customer relationship management, payment workflows, and operational controls. HERBO Pay is designed to support cashless payment workflows, customer onboarding, transaction monitoring, and payment-related reporting.

 

The Company’s initial target markets include cannabis and CBD-related businesses, wellness businesses, specialty retail, manufacturing, professional services, and other regulated or complex industries that may require integrated accounting, inventory, compliance, and payment functionality. Cannabis and CBD-related businesses remain a significant target customer vertical because these businesses often face heightened accounting, tax, compliance, inventory tracking, and banking-related challenges.

 

The Company did not generate revenue during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026. Subsequent to year end, the Company began limited onboarding of initial paying customers. These activities remain early-stage and may not result in material revenue unless and until the Company is able to expand customer adoption, complete additional onboarding, and obtain sufficient working capital to support commercialization.

 

The Company’s common stock is currently quoted on the OTCID Market operated by OTC Markets Group Inc. under the trading symbol “ESSI.”

 

Corporate History

 

The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 8, 2009 under the name Pristine Solutions, Inc. The Company changed its name to Eaton Scientific Systems Inc., effective November 27, 2012, and later changed its name to Eco Science Solutions, Inc. in February 2014.

 

In February 2014, the Company effected a 1,000-for-1 reverse stock split. On May 4, 2026, the Company effected a 1-for-25 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock. Unless otherwise indicated, all share and per share amounts presented in this Annual Report on Form 10-K have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the May 4, 2026 reverse stock split.

 

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. On December 3, 2020, the Court entered the Order and Final Judgment approving the settlement.

 

The settlement included, among other things, the resignation of certain former officers and directors, the appointment of A. Carl Mudd as Ombudsman and Chairman of the Board, the return of 140,000 shares of common stock to treasury after giving effect to the May 4, 2026 reverse stock split, the issuance of 56,000 restricted shares of common stock to Robbins LLP after giving effect to the May 4, 2026 reverse stock split, the issuance of a $350,000 promissory note to Robbins LLP, and the forgiveness and cancellation of $1,500,000 of debt held by Phenix Ventures LLC.

 

Pursuant to the settlement, at least 15% of revenue or qualifying financing proceeds is required to be allocated toward the implementation and maintenance of certain governance reforms. As of January 31, 2026, the Company had not generated revenue and had limited financial resources available to fund such initiatives. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, the Company obtained limited financing proceeds that management determined were utilized solely to satisfy essential operating expenditures and maintain ongoing operations. After evaluating the nature and purpose of such financing activities, management determined that the proceeds obtained did not constitute financing proceeds subject to the settlement’s 15% allocation provision. The Company continues to evaluate its obligations and compliance requirements under the settlement agreement.

On December 23, 2020, the Company approved the appointment of A. Carl Mudd to serve as Chairman of the Board and Ombudsman of the Company. In connection with this role, Mr. Mudd received 100,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock after giving effect to the May 4, 2026 reverse stock split and became entitled to an advisory fee of $10,000 per month, subject to the terms of his agreement and the Company’s available liquidity.

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. During the year ended January 31, 2026, the Company issued an aggregate of 22,834,297 shares of restricted common stock, after giving effect to the May 4, 2026 reverse stock split, in connection with the settlement of accrued compensation, accounts payable, notes payable, convertible notes, and related party obligations.

 

As of January 31, 2026, after giving effect to the May 4, 2026 reverse stock split, the Company had 24,992,656 shares of common stock issued, of which 40,000 shares were held as treasury stock, resulting in 24,952,656 shares of common stock outstanding.

HERBO Platform

 

HERBO is a cloud-based ERP and accounting platform designed to help businesses manage financial accounting, inventory, reporting, customer data, payment workflows, and operational processes within a single system.

 

The HERBO platform is intended to support businesses that require more integrated workflows than a basic accounting or point-of-sale system may provide. The HERBO platform is designed to include functionality relating to accounting, inventory management, reporting, compliance support, customer relationship management, payment workflows, and operational management.

 

HERBO is designed as a software-as-a-service platform and is intended to be configurable for different industries and customer use cases. The Company believes the platform may be particularly useful for businesses that operate across multiple locations, manage regulated products, require detailed inventory tracking, or need integrated accounting and operational records.

 

HERBO Pay

 

HERBO Pay is a financial services and payment platform designed to integrate with HERBO ERP. The platform is intended to support cashless payment workflows, payment tracking, customer onboarding, identity verification, transaction monitoring, and payment-related reporting. Depending on the nature and scope of payment-related services offered through HERBO Pay, the Company may be required to register as a money services business with FinCEN, obtain money transmitter licenses in one or more states, or comply with other federal and state financial services regulations. See "Regulatory Environment" below for additional information regarding the regulatory framework applicable to the Company's operations.

 

HERBO Pay is intended to help businesses manage payments and related records within the same operational environment as their accounting and inventory data. The platform is operational and, subsequent to fiscal year end, the Company began early-stage customer onboarding for HERBO Pay. Commercialization remains limited and early-stage, and the Company has not yet generated material revenue from HERBO Pay.

 

Cannabis and Regulated Industry Focus

 

Cannabis and CBD-related businesses remain an important target market for the Company. Although the Company does not grow, manufacture, distribute, sell, or dispense cannabis or cannabis products, the Company believes that cannabis and CBD-related businesses may require software solutions that support accounting, inventory management, product traceability, tax compliance, payment workflows, customer onboarding, and recordkeeping.

 

The cannabis industry presents unique operational and compliance challenges, including cash management issues, limited access to banking services, state-level licensing requirements, inventory tracking requirements, excise and sales tax obligations, and federal tax restrictions, including Internal Revenue Code Section 280E. Section 280E limits deductions for businesses trafficking in Schedule I or Schedule II controlled substances and can create significant tax and accounting complexity for cannabis operators. If cannabis were rescheduled to Schedule III (as proposed by the U.S. Department of Justice and the Drug Enforcement Administration in May 2024), Section 280E would no longer apply to cannabis businesses, which could reduce certain tax and accounting complexity but would not eliminate the broader operational, compliance, and regulatory challenges facing such businesses.

 

The Company’s platform is intended to assist customers with integrated accounting and operational data, including inventory and cost tracking. However, the Company does not provide legal, tax, regulatory, or accounting advice to customers and customers remain responsible for compliance with applicable laws, regulations, tax rules, licensing requirements, and reporting obligations.

 

The Company also intends to market its platform to other regulated or operationally complex industries, including wellness, specialty retail, manufacturing, professional services, and other industries that may benefit from integrated ERP, accounting, compliance, and payment functionality.

Regulatory Environment

 

The Company’s target customers may operate in industries subject to significant federal, state, and local regulation. These regulations may relate to licensing, product tracking, tax reporting, payment processing, customer verification, data security, consumer protection, anti-money laundering obligations, privacy, and other compliance matters. Although the Company does not grow, manufacture, distribute, sell, or dispense cannabis or cannabis products, because the Company provides software and payment-related services to cannabis-related businesses, changes in the federal or state regulatory landscape applicable to cannabis could materially affect the Company's business, operations, and customers. In particular, the Company's HERBO Pay platform, which supports cashless payment workflows, customer onboarding, identity verification, and transaction monitoring, is or may be subject to federal and state money transmitter licensing requirements, Bank Secrecy Act and anti-money laundering compliance obligations, FinCEN guidance applicable to financial institutions and service providers serving cannabis-related businesses, state-level payment processing and consumer financial services regulations, and Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI-DSS). The Company has not yet obtained all licenses or registrations that may be required in connection with its current or planned operations. The Company's failure to obtain or maintain required licenses, registrations, or compliance with applicable payment and financial services regulations could result in enforcement actions, fines, civil or criminal penalties, or restrictions on the Company's ability to operate HERBO Pay in one or more jurisdictions.

 

Cannabis remains illegal under U.S. federal law. Under the Controlled Substances Act, cannabis is currently classified as a Schedule I controlled substance. Although numerous states have legalized medical and/or adult-use cannabis, state-level legalization does not eliminate federal law risk. Because the Company may provide software or payment-related services to cannabis-related businesses, the Company could be deemed to be aiding and abetting illegal activities through the services it provides to cannabis industry participants, which could subject the Company to enforcement actions by federal law enforcement authorities. Changes in federal or state cannabis laws, enforcement priorities, banking rules, payment industry practices, or tax rules could materially affect the Company’s business prospects and customers.

 

In May 2024, the U.S. Department of Justice and the Drug Enforcement Administration published a proposed rule to move marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III under the Controlled Substances Act. On December 18, 2025, President Trump issued an executive order directing the Attorney General to take all necessary steps to expeditiously move marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III under the Controlled Substances Act. As of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, no final rule has been adopted, and the status and timing of any final rulemaking action remain uncertain. There can be no assurance that cannabis will be rescheduled or descheduled, or that any change in federal law would benefit the Company or its customers.

 

Banking and payment processing remain significant challenges for many cannabis-related businesses. Due to federal law restrictions, some financial institutions may be unwilling to provide banking or payment services to cannabis-related businesses, even where such businesses operate legally under state law. The SAFE Banking Act, which would have prohibited federal regulators from penalizing financial institutions for serving state-legal cannabis businesses, has passed the U.S. House of Representatives multiple times but has not been enacted into law. Financial institutions that do serve cannabis-related businesses are generally required to comply with Bank Secrecy Act obligations and FinCEN guidance, including FinCEN's 2014 BSA Expectations Regarding Marijuana-Related Businesses (FIN-2014-G001), which imposes enhanced due diligence, suspicious activity reporting, and monitoring requirements. This creates operational risks for cannabis operators and may affect the adoption, use, and scalability of software and payment platforms serving those businesses, including HERBO Pay.

The regulatory framework applicable to cannabis and other regulated industries is evolving and uncertain. Federal enforcement priorities relating to cannabis may change and remain uncertain. New laws, regulations, enforcement policies, or interpretations could materially affect the Company’s operations, customers, revenue opportunities, compliance costs, and ability to commercialize HERBO and HERBO Pay. In addition, the Company may be subject to federal and state data privacy and data security laws and regulations, including the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (collectively, "CCPA"), and similar state privacy laws, which impose obligations relating to the collection, use, storage, disclosure, and protection of personal information. Compliance with evolving data privacy requirements may require the Company to incur additional costs and could affect the design and operation of its software platforms.

 

Intellectual Property and Technology

 

The Company relies on a combination of software rights, trade secrets, contractual protections, confidentiality agreements, trademarks, proprietary processes, and technical measures to protect its software platforms and related intellectual property.

 

The Company may not be able to prevent unauthorized use, duplication, reverse engineering, or misappropriation of its technology. The Company may also be required to incur additional costs to protect or enforce its intellectual property rights.

 

Competition

 

The markets for ERP software, accounting software, payment technology, compliance software, and industry-specific SaaS platforms are highly competitive and rapidly evolving.

 

The Company competes with traditional accounting software providers, ERP platforms, payment processors, inventory management software providers, cannabis-focused software providers, and other financial technology companies, including companies such as QuickBooks, Xero, FreshBooks, Zoho, and Wave. Many competitors possess substantially greater financial, technical, operational, sales, marketing, and other resources than the Company.

 

The Company believes competition within its target markets is based on several factors, including platform functionality, ease of implementation, integration capabilities, accounting and reporting functionality, inventory management capabilities, compliance support features, customer service, scalability, pricing, and industry-specific operational functionality. The Company believes its platforms may provide value to certain regulated and operationally complex businesses through integrated accounting, operational workflow, inventory management, compliance support, and payment functionality.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY

 

Risk Management and Strategy

 

The Company utilizes various processes and procedures intended to identify, assess, and manage cybersecurity risks affecting its systems, operations, data, and third-party service providers. The Company relies substantially on third-party cloud-based software, payment processors, hosting providers, communication systems, and external technology vendors in connection with its operations and platform development activities.

 

 
9

Table of Contents

 

Cybersecurity risks considered by the Company include unauthorized access to systems or data, ransomware, phishing attempts, business interruption, payment processing disruptions, loss of confidential information, and vulnerabilities involving third-party vendors or hosted infrastructure.

 

The Company’s cybersecurity processes currently include periodic review of system access controls, use of third-party security features and monitoring tools where available, password and authentication controls, vendor oversight activities, data backup procedures, and periodic evaluation of technology-related operational risks. Due to the Company’s size and limited personnel, the Company relies significantly on third-party service providers and external consultants to support certain technology, hosting, payment processing, and cybersecurity-related functions.

 

As of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company is not aware of any cybersecurity incident that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition.

 

Governance

 

Management is responsible for assessing and managing cybersecurity risks as part of the Company’s broader operational and financial risk management activities. Cybersecurity and technology-related matters may be reviewed periodically by management and the Board of Directors, including risks associated with third-party service providers, operational systems, payment processing activities, data security, and business continuity.

 

Due to the Company’s limited personnel and early-stage operations, the Company does not currently maintain a dedicated internal cybersecurity department or formalized enterprise cybersecurity program. The Company intends to continue evaluating and enhancing its cybersecurity processes, policies, and oversight procedures as operations and resources expand.

 

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

 

The Company’s principal executive office is located at 300 S. El Camino Real, Suite 206, San Clemente, California 92672. The office space is currently provided by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer at no cost to the Company.

 

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

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. On December 3, 2020, the Court entered an Order and Final Judgment approving the settlement.

Table of Contents

 

Pursuant to the settlement, among other things:

 

·

Jeffery Taylor resigned as Chairman of the Board and Don Taylor resigned as Chief Financial Officer and director of the Company;

·

A. Carl Mudd was appointed to serve as Chairman of the Board and Ombudsman;

·

certain former shareholders returned an aggregate of 140,000 shares of common stock to treasury for cancellation, after giving effect to the Company’s May 4, 2026 1-for-25 reverse stock split;

·

the Company issued 56,000 restricted shares of common stock to Robbins LLP, after giving effect to the May 4, 2026 reverse stock split;

·

the Company entered into a promissory note payable to Robbins LLP in the principal amount of $350,000; and

·

debt totaling $1,500,000 owed to Phenix Ventures LLC was forgiven and cancelled.

 

Pursuant to the settlement and related governance reforms, on December 23, 2020, the Company appointed A. Carl Mudd to serve as Chairman of the Board and Ombudsman. Mr. Mudd’s role includes assisting the Company with implementation and monitoring of certain governance reforms, board oversight, corporate governance matters, compliance-related initiatives, and coordination between management and the Board of Directors.

 

In connection with his appointment, the Company entered into a Board Advisory Agreement with Mr. Mudd pursuant to which he is entitled to receive an advisory fee of $10,000 per month. Due to the Company’s limited liquidity, a substantial portion of such fees has historically been accrued. As disclosed in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, a portion of accrued fees owing to Mr. Mudd was settled through the issuance of common stock during the year ended January 31, 2026.

 

Pursuant to the settlement, the Company also agreed to implement certain governance reforms and compliance-related initiatives, including matters relating to board oversight, governance policies, audit committee functions, internal controls, and related governance procedures. As of January 31, 2026, the Company has implemented certain of these governance reforms, including the appointment of Mr. Mudd as Chairman and Ombudsman, Board oversight of financial reporting and audit functions, and adoption of an Insider Trading Policy. Implementation of additional governance reforms, including establishment of a formal audit committee charter, remains ongoing and is dependent, in part, upon the Company’s financial resources and operational development. On May 22, 2026, the Board of Directors adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics applicable to all directors, officers, and employees of the Company in satisfaction of the requirements of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Company continues to evaluate the status of its compliance with the settlement-mandated governance reforms.

 

Robbins LLP Promissory Note.  As described above, the Company issued a $350,000 promissory note to Robbins LLP in connection with the 2020 shareholder derivative settlement. The Robbins LLP promissory note is in default. As disclosed in Note 6 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has accrued default interest on the Robbins LLP promissory note and continues to evaluate its alternatives with respect to satisfaction of the note. The Company is not currently aware of any pending litigation by Robbins LLP to collect the principal amount or accrued interest under the note. See also Item 13 — Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.

 

Other than as described above, the Company is not currently a party to any material pending legal proceeding, and management is not aware of any material proceedings contemplated against the Company. The Company may from time to time become involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

 

Market Information

 

The Company’s common stock is quoted on the OTCID Market operated by OTC Markets Group Inc. under the trading symbol “ESSI.”

 

The Company’s securities were initially quoted on the OTC Markets in September 2010 under the name “Pristine Solutions, Inc.” The Company subsequently changed its name to “Eaton Scientific Systems, Inc.” and later to “Eco Science Solutions, Inc.” During May 2017, trading in the Company’s securities was suspended. On October 6, 2022, the registration of the Company’s securities was revoked by the Securities and Exchange Commission. On December 6, 2024, quotation of the Company’s common stock resumed on the OTC Markets under the trading symbol “ESSI.” On February 7, 2025, FINRA completed processing of the Company’s Form 211, permitting broker-dealers to resume publication of quotations for the Company’s common stock.

 

On May 4, 2026, the Company effected a 1-for-25 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock. Unless otherwise indicated, all share and per share amounts presented in this Annual Report on Form 10-K have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.

 

Holders

 

As of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, there were approximately 88 holders of record of the Company’s common stock.

 

Dividends

 

The Company has not declared or paid any cash dividends on its common stock during the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026 and 2025. The Company currently intends to retain any future earnings, if any, to fund the development and growth of its business and does not presently anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

 

On January 31, 2026, the Company issued an aggregate of 22,834,297 shares of restricted common stock in connection with the settlement and conversion of accrued compensation, accounts payable, notes payable, convertible notes, and accrued interest totaling approximately $15,984,008. The shares were issued at an adjusted stated issuance price of $0.70 per share after giving effect to the May 4, 2026 reverse stock split.

 

For financial reporting purposes, the shares issued in connection with the debt settlement transactions were recorded at their estimated aggregate fair value of approximately $6.1 million based on the estimated fair value of the common stock on the date of issuance. As a result, the Company recognized gains on debt settlement and extinguishment representing the excess of the carrying value of the liabilities extinguished over the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued.

 

The issuances were completed in reliance upon exemptions from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder. The recipients represented their intention to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view toward distribution. Appropriate restrictive legends were affixed to the certificates or book-entry statements representing the securities.

 

The Company did not issue any securities during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025.

 

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

 

The Company did not repurchase any of its equity securities during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026.

 

As of January 31, 2026, the Company had 24,992,656 shares of common stock issued, of which 40,000 shares were held as treasury stock, resulting in 24,952,656 shares of common stock outstanding.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and are presented in United States dollars. Unless otherwise indicated, all share and per share amounts presented herein have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Company’s 1-for-25 reverse stock split effective May 4, 2026.

 

Overview

 

Eco Science Solutions, Inc. (“ESSI,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is focused on the development and commercialization of enterprise software and financial technology solutions intended to support businesses operating in regulated and operationally complex industries.

 

The Company’s primary software platforms are HERBO, a cloud-based enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) and accounting platform, and HERBO Pay, an integrated payment and financial technology platform designed to support payment workflows, onboarding, transaction monitoring, and operational integration.

 

The Company is currently in the early stages of commercialization of its software platforms. During the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company did not generate revenue. Subsequent to January 31, 2026, the Company commenced limited onboarding of initial paying customers and early-stage commercial implementation activities.

 

The Company’s operations have historically been funded primarily through related party advances, convertible notes, loans, and issuances of equity securities. During the year ended January 31, 2026, the Company completed substantial debt settlement transactions through the issuance of common stock, resulting in significant reductions in liabilities and the recognition of gains on debt settlement and extinguishment.

Subsequent Events

 

Reverse Stock Split.  On May 4, 2026, following stockholder authorization, the Company effected a 1-for-25 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock. The reverse stock split was processed by FINRA as effective on May 4, 2026. All share and per share amounts presented in this Annual Report on Form 10-K have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.

 

March 9, 2026 Stockholder Consent.  On March 9, 2026, the Company received the written consent of holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding common stock authorizing the May 4, 2026 reverse stock split and related corporate actions.

 

Other than as described above and in Note 11 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company is not aware of any subsequent events that would require disclosure or adjustment to the consolidated financial statements as of January 31, 2026.

 

Plan of Operations

 

The Company intends to continue development, commercialization, and customer onboarding activities relating to the HERBO and HERBO Pay platforms. Management’s current operational focus includes:

 

·

expansion of software functionality and integrations;

·

onboarding of initial customers;

·

development of recurring SaaS revenue opportunities;

·

payment and onboarding workflow expansion;

·

operational scalability;

·

enhancement of compliance-related functionality; and

·

obtaining additional working capital and financing resources.

 

 
16

Table of Contents

 

The Company expects to continue relying on related party funding, debt financing, equity issuances, and other external financing arrangements until sufficient recurring revenues can be generated from operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining additional financing on acceptable terms, or at all.

 

Future financing activities may result in dilution to existing stockholders, the issuance of additional equity securities, the incurrence of debt, or other financing arrangements that could adversely affect existing stockholders.

 

Going Concern

 

The Company has incurred recurring operating losses and negative operating cash flows and has not yet generated significant recurring revenues from operations. As of January 31, 2026, the Company had a working capital deficit of $1,124,029 and an accumulated deficit of $69,284,053.

 

The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate revenues from operations, obtain additional financing, and achieve profitable operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability or classification of recorded assets or liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and reported amounts of revenues and expenses.

 

Management regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions relating to, among other matters:

 

·

valuation of stock-based compensation;

·

fair value of equity instruments issued in debt settlements;

·

valuation allowances for deferred tax assets;

·

recoverability of long-lived assets and intangible assets;

·

beneficial conversion features and derivative liabilities;

·

accruals and contingencies; and

·

going concern considerations.

 

Actual results may differ materially from these estimates.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation. Equity instruments issued for services are measured at the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued or the fair value of the services received, whichever is more reliably measurable.

 

Convertible Debt and Beneficial Conversion Features

 

The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible instruments in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and ASC 470, Debt, to determine whether derivative accounting or beneficial conversion feature accounting is required.

 

 
17

Table of Contents

 

Stock Settled Debt

 

Certain convertible instruments historically contained provisions permitting conversion at fixed discounts to market prices of the Company’s common stock. In these instances, the Company recorded stock-settled debt representing the estimated value transferred through the conversion feature. As of January 31, 2026 and 2025, stock-settled debt included within convertible notes payable totaled $0 and $248,432, respectively.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company evaluates recently issued accounting pronouncements and standards updates issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

 

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The amendments require enhanced annual and interim disclosures regarding significant segment expenses. The Company adopted this guidance and the adoption did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The standard requires expanded income tax disclosures, including additional disaggregation of effective tax rate reconciliations and income taxes paid. The Company adopted this guidance during fiscal 2026 and the adoption did not materially impact the 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. The Company early adopted this standard during fiscal 2026 and the adoption did not materially impact the consolidated financial statements.

 

Accounting Pronouncements Pending Adoption

 

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow Scope Improvements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard 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. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (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 controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

As of January 31, 2026, the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act.

 

Based upon that evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of January 31, 2026 due to the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below.

Table of Contents

 

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

 

Because of inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect all misstatements. Additionally, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

 

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2026 using the criteria established in the Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on this assessment, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of January 31, 2026 due to the following material weaknesses:

 

·

the Company has limited accounting personnel and does not maintain sufficient in-house resources with extensive technical accounting expertise relating to certain complex or non-routine transactions;

·

the Company does not maintain adequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives due to limited personnel resources; and

·

the Company’s financial reporting and period-end close processes rely significantly on external accounting consultants and third-party service providers.

 

Management has continued to utilize external accounting consultants, legal advisors, and other third-party professionals to assist with financial reporting, technical accounting matters, SEC reporting obligations, and review procedures.

 

This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting because the Company is a smaller reporting company and non-accelerated filer and is not required to provide such report.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, except that management increased its use of external accounting and compliance consultants and implemented additional review procedures relating to financial reporting and SEC reporting processes.

 

ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

Board Structure and Corporate Governance

 

The Company’s Board of Directors currently consists of two directors: A. Carl Mudd and S. Randall Oveson.

 

The Company does not currently maintain separate standing compensation or nominating committees. The Board of Directors performs the functions typically associated with compensation and nominating committees due to the Company’s size, limited personnel, and current operational scale.

 

Audit Committee Related Matters

 

Mr. Mudd currently serves as the sole member performing audit committee functions. The Company has not adopted a formal audit committee charter due to the Company’s size and limited resources.

 

The Board of Directors oversees the Company’s financial reporting process, internal controls, audit functions, and engagement of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Board reviews the Company’s financial statements, accounting matters, audit scope, internal controls, and related financial reporting matters with management and the Company’s independent auditors.

 

The Company intends to continue evaluating its governance structure and committee composition as operations and resources expand.

 

The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Mudd qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of SEC rules.

 

Compensation Committee Related Matters

 

The Company does not currently maintain a separate standing compensation committee. The Board of Directors currently performs compensation committee functions, including review and approval of executive compensation arrangements and related compensation matters.

 

Nominating Committee Related Matters

 

The Company does not currently maintain a separate standing nominating committee and has not adopted formal procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees for election to the Board of Directors.

 

Director Independence

 

Although the Company’s common stock is not listed on a national securities exchange, the Board of Directors has determined, in accordance with the independence standards set forth in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(a)(2), that both A. Carl Mudd and S. Randall Oveson qualify as independent directors. Neither Mr. Mudd nor Mr. Oveson is an executive officer or employee of the Company, and neither maintains relationships that, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out his responsibilities as a director.

 

In making the foregoing determination with respect to Mr. Mudd, the Board of Directors considered the $10,000 per month advisory fee payable to Mr. Mudd pursuant to his Board Advisory Agreement, the settlement of approximately $610,000 of accrued advisory fees on January 31, 2026 through the issuance of restricted common stock (see Item 11 and Item 13), and the scope of Mr. Mudd's Ombudsman duties, which include governance monitoring, compliance-related initiatives, and coordination between management and the Board. Pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(a)(2)(B), compensation received by a director for board or board committee service is excluded from the bright-line compensation test set forth in that rule. The Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Mudd’s Board Advisory Agreement and Ombudsman role constitute board and board-committee service for purposes of Rule 5605(a)(2)(B), and that Mr. Mudd’s compensation, viewed in light of the Company’s overall circumstances, does not interfere with the exercise of his independent judgment in carrying out his responsibilities as a director.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the Company’s directors, executive officers, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of the Company’s common stock to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Based solely upon a review of copies of such reports furnished to the Company and written representations from reporting persons, the Company believes that during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, Michael D. Rountree, A. Carl Mudd, and S. Randall Oveson each failed to timely file certain required Section 16(a) reports relating to equity issuances completed on January 31, 2026 in connection with the Company's debt settlement transactions. The Company believes that six reports (a late Form 3 and a late Form 4 for each of Messrs. Rountree, Mudd and Oveson) covering an aggregate of three transactions were not filed on a timely basis during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026.

 

Code of Ethics

 

On May 22, 2026, the Board of Directors adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics applicable to all directors, officers, and employees of the Company, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer, principal accounting officer or controller, and persons performing similar functions, in satisfaction of the requirements of Section 406 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and Item 406 of Regulation S-K. A copy of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is filed as Exhibit 14.1 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company intends to disclose any amendment to, or waiver from, the Code with respect to any director or executive officer to the extent required by applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Insider Trading Policy

 

As required by Item 408(b) of Regulation S-K, the Company hereby discloses that the Company has adopted an Insider Trading Policy governing the purchase, sale, and other dispositions of the Company’s securities by its directors, officers, employees, and certain other covered persons. The Board of Directors has determined that the Insider Trading Policy is reasonably designed to promote compliance with applicable insider trading laws, rules, and regulations and any applicable listing standards. A copy of the Insider Trading Policy is filed as Exhibit 19 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

(1) The Summary Compensation Table reports as “None” the column captioned “Stock Awards” for fiscal year 2026 because the equity issued to Mr. Rountree and Mr. Mudd on January 31, 2026 represented the settlement of previously accrued and previously expensed liabilities rather than new compensation awarded in fiscal year 2026. Specifically, as further described below and in Note 7 and Note 8 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements: (i) approximately $1,690,000 of accrued and unpaid base salary owing to Mr. Rountree was settled through the issuance of approximately 2,414,286 shares of restricted common stock (after giving effect to the May 4, 2026 reverse stock split, at an adjusted stated issuance price of $0.70 per share); (ii) approximately $337,480 of unpaid advances by Mr. Rountree on behalf of the Company was settled through the issuance of approximately 482,114 shares of restricted common stock at the same adjusted stated issuance price; and (iii) approximately $610,000 of accrued advisory fees owing to Mr. Mudd was settled through the issuance of approximately 871,429 shares of restricted common stock (after giving effect to the May 4, 2026 reverse stock split, at the same adjusted stated issuance price of $0.70 per share). The Company expensed and disclosed the underlying compensation and advisory fees in the periods in which the services were rendered. The January 31, 2026 issuance of restricted common stock represented settlement of these previously accrued obligations and is therefore not reported as a new fiscal year 2026 stock award in the Summary Compensation Table. The aggregate fair value of the equity instruments issued in connection with these settlements is reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and in Item 13 — Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.

Table of Contents

 

Michael D. Rountree

 

Mr. Rountree was appointed Chief Operating Officer on June 21, 2017 and was appointed interim Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer on December 8, 2020. Effective January 31, 2021, Mr. Rountree formally accepted the positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Effective January 17, 2023, Mr. Rountree assumed the additional role of President following the resignation of Jeffery Taylor. Effective April 2, 2025, Mr. Rountree was appointed Secretary of the Company.

 

Pursuant to his Executive Employment Agreement, as amended, Mr. Rountree is entitled to an annual base salary of $250,000, which has historically accrued when unpaid due to the Company’s limited liquidity.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2021, Mr. Rountree received 120,000 shares of restricted common stock, after giving retroactive effect to the Company’s May 4, 2026 1-for-25 reverse stock split, in connection with his employment agreement.

 

As of January 31, 2026 and 2025, accrued and unpaid compensation owing to Mr. Rountree totaled approximately $0 and $1,440,000, respectively. On January 31, 2026, accrued compensation owing to Mr. Rountree totaling approximately $1,690,000 was settled through the issuance of restricted shares of common stock.

 

During the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, Mr. Rountree advanced funds on behalf of the Company totaling approximately $14,597 and $28,136, respectively.

Director Compensation

 

Directors who are also employees or officers of the Company do not receive additional compensation for service as directors. Other than compensation payable to Mr. Mudd pursuant to his Board Advisory Agreement and Ombudsman role, directors currently serve without separate cash compensation for board service.

 

Clawback Policy / Item 402(w)

 

The Company is not a “listed issuer” (as defined in Rule 10D-1 under the Exchange Act) because the Company’s common stock is not listed on a national securities exchange. As a result, the Company is not required to maintain or disclose a compensation recovery policy under Rule 10D-1 or pursuant to Item 402(w) of Regulation S-K, and no Exhibit 97 has been filed with this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company will evaluate the adoption of a clawback policy that complies with Rule 10D-1 if and when the Company’s common stock becomes listed on a national securities exchange.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Unless otherwise indicated, the Company believes each beneficial owner possesses sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares indicated.

 

As of January 31, 2026, the Company had 24,992,656 shares of common stock issued, of which 40,000 shares were held as treasury stock, resulting in 24,952,656 shares of common stock outstanding.

Percent of Class is calculated based on 24,952,656 shares of common stock outstanding as of January 31, 2026, after giving effect to the May 4, 2026 1-for-25 reverse stock split. The table excludes treasury shares, custodial / broker omnibus accounts, and non-beneficial street name holdings.

 

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

 

Review and Approval of Related Party Transactions

 

In general, the Company’s policy is to submit material related party transactions to the Board of Directors for review and approval. The Board reviews related party transactions to determine whether such transactions are on terms that are fair to the Company and comparable to those that could be obtained in arm’s length transactions with unrelated third parties. Related party transactions may involve directors, executive officers, greater than 5% stockholders, or affiliates of such persons.

 

Related Party Transactions during Fiscal 2026

 

Related Party Transaction Threshold

 

As a smaller reporting company, the Company is required, pursuant to Item 404(d) of Regulation S-K, to disclose related party transactions in which the amount involved exceeded or will exceed the lesser of $120,000 or one percent (1%) of the average of the Company’s total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years. The Company’s average total assets at year-end for the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026 and January 31, 2025 were approximately $139,048, of which 1% was approximately $1,390. Accordingly, the lower threshold of $1,390 governs related party transaction disclosure for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026. The transactions described below include all related party transactions known to the Company that exceeded the foregoing threshold.

On January 31, 2026, in connection with the Company’s broader debt settlement transactions, the Company issued 342,857 shares of restricted common stock (after giving effect to the May 4, 2026 reverse stock split) to Charity of Christ Ministry Trust at the adjusted stated issuance price of $0.70 per share in satisfaction of these assumed obligations. Mr. Oveson disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares held by Charity of Christ Ministry Trust except to the extent of any pecuniary interest therein. See Note 8 to the accompanying audited consolidated financial statements and Item 12.

Redwood Blind Trust — Settlement of Notes Payable and Convertible Note

 

During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, the Company settled outstanding indebtedness held by Redwood Blind Trust, of which Ian Subel serves as Trustee and Mr. Gannon Giguiere is the beneficiary, through the issuance of restricted common stock. The settled obligations consisted of (i) notes payable with an aggregate carrying value of approximately $2,225,500 (see Note 6 to the accompanying audited consolidated financial statements); (ii) the principal balance of a convertible note payable of approximately $1,407,781 (see Notes 5 and 7 to the accompanying audited consolidated financial statements); and (iii) approximately $117,862 of accrued interest on the convertible note (see Notes 5 and 7 to the accompanying audited consolidated financial statements). The aggregate obligations of approximately $3,751,143 were settled on January 31, 2026 through the issuance of an aggregate of 5,358,776 shares of restricted common stock (after giving effect to the May 4, 2026 reverse stock split) at the adjusted stated issuance price of $0.70 per share, allocated as approximately 3,179,286 shares against the notes payable, 2,011,115 shares against the convertible note principal, and 168,375 shares against the accrued interest. Neither Mr. Subel nor Mr. Giguiere is a director, officer, or employee of the Company. As a result of these settlement issuances, together with 6,538 shares of common stock (after giving effect to the May 4, 2026 reverse stock split) held directly by Mr. Giguiere prior to the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026, Mr. Giguiere, the Redwood Blind Trust, and Mr. Subel as Trustee thereof became the beneficial owners, in the aggregate, of approximately 21.50% of the Company's outstanding common stock as of January 31, 2026 (see Item 12).

 

Indemnification Agreements

 

The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with each of Mr. Rountree, Mr. Mudd, and Mr. Oveson, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to indemnify such individuals to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law against expenses, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by them in any action or proceeding to which any of them is or is threatened to be made a party by reason of his service as an officer or director of the Company.

 

Office Space

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Eco Science Solutions, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Eco Science Solutions, Inc. (“the Company”) as of January 31, 2026 and 2025, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended January 31, 2026, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of January 31, 2026, and 2025 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended January 31, 2026, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit, a working capital deficit, has historically incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operations, and has limited cash resources. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

Critical Audit Matters

 

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

 

Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. We determined that there were no critical audit matters.

ECO SCIENCE SOLUTIONS, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

 

Organization and nature of business

 

Eco Science Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 8, 2009, under the name Pristine Solutions, Inc. On January 8, 2014, the Company changed its name to Eco Science Solutions, Inc.

 

On June 21, 2017, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Ga-Du Corporation (“Ga-Du”), which became a wholly owned subsidiary. Ga-Du provided a financial services platform, as well as inventory control, advisory, and retail inventory management software solutions.

 

On January 28, 2021, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Haiku Holdings, LLC, pursuant to which the Company acquired an enterprise software platform designed to support accounting, inventory management, customer relationship management, and overall business operations.

 

On April 5, 2023, the Company entered into a Software Acquisition Agreement with eXPO Financial Services LLC, pursuant to which the Company acquired all rights, title, and interest in a proprietary software platform known as the eXPO (electronic eXchange portal) for a total purchase price of $100,000.

 

On April 2, 2025, the Company’s Secretary resigned and a successor was appointed. Concurrently, the Board of Directors approved the dissolution of Ga-Du. On April 3, 2025, a Certificate of Dissolution/Withdrawal was filed with the State of Nevada, and Ga-Du was formally dissolved.

 

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 1-for-25 reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock. Written consent was obtained from stockholders representing approximately 64.57% of the Company’s outstanding voting power. The reverse stock split became effective on May 4, 2026. The Company filed an Information Statement on Schedule 14C with the Securities and Exchange Commission to provide notice to stockholders and disclose the details of the reverse stock split.

 

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.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $69,284,053 and working capital deficit of $1,124,029 as of January 31, 2026. The Company generated net income of $9,442,219 during the year ended January 31, 2026, primarily resulting from non-cash gains associated with debt settlement transactions. The Company has historically incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from operations and has limited cash resources available to fund operations.

 

These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the consolidated financial statements are issued. Management intends to fund operations through additional debt and equity financings, strategic transactions, improved operating performance and other capital raising initiatives. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining additional financing or achieving profitable operations.

 

The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

 

The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. These policies have been consistently applied to all periods presented unless otherwise noted.

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The audited consolidated financial statements 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.

 

These audited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented.

 

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 related to long-lived assets and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. 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.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. During the year ended January 31, 2026, in connection with the dissolution of Ga-Du Corporation, liabilities totaling $975,000 were reclassified from accounts payable and related party payables to “liabilities held on divestiture” to reflect their disposition. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported net income (loss).

 

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 4) for a purchase price of $100,000, which has been capitalized as an intangible asset.

No impairment expense was recognized for the years ended January 31, 2026, and 2025. The Company expects to amortize the software over an estimated useful life of three years once the asset is placed into service.

 

Advertising and Marketing Costs

 

Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred and were $0 during each of the fiscal years ended January 31, 2026, and 2025.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

The Company identifies performance obligations within its contracts and recognizes revenue as those performance obligations are satisfied.

 

For the years ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company did not generate revenue.

 

Cost of Revenue

 

Cost of revenue consists of direct costs incurred to generate revenue and is recognized as incurred. Such costs primarily include fees associated with the operation and delivery of the Company’s Herbo enterprise software platform.

 

For the years ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company did not incur any cost of revenue, as no revenue was generated during the periods.

 

To the extent revenue is generated through subsidiary operations, amounts recognized as revenue represent net proceeds after associated costs.

 

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 represent 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.  The Company is not yet generating revenue from its primary operations. The CODM evaluates the performance of the single operating segment based on the Company’s net income (loss) as reported in the Statements of Operations and allocates resources based on ongoing software development budgets and expected marketing costs to engage consumers. The Company’s segment assets, including intangible assets, are reported on the Balance Sheets.

 

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 and currently has no revenues. Accordingly, the 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 expense or asset information that are supplemental to those disclosed in these consolidated financial statements that are regularly provided to the CODM.

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.

 

Convertible Instruments and Debt Settlements

 

Obligations owing to related parties, including operating advances made by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer to fund operations with an expectation of repayment, are recorded as liabilities and are not treated as capital contributions. When such obligations are settled on terms identical to those extended to, and accepted by, unrelated creditors in the same transaction, the settlements are accounted for as extinguishments of debt under ASC 470-50, Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments, and any resulting gain is recognized in the statement of operations. No amount is credited to additional paid-in capital as a capital contribution unless the related party receives terms more favorable than those available to unrelated creditors.

 

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 carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments that are not required to be remeasured at fair value on a recurring basis—including cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, interest payable, and notes payable—approximate their fair values as of January 31, 2026 and 2025 due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

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 January 31, 2026 and 2025, 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.

 

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 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.

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.

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.

NOTE 3 – DIVESTITURE OF SUBSIDIARY

 

On April 3, 2025, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Ga-Du Corporation (“Ga-Du”), was dissolved following the filing of a Certificate of Dissolution with the State of Nevada. As a result of the dissolution, the Company assumed certain liabilities of Ga-Du totaling approximately $975,000, consisting of accounts payable and accrued compensation, including amounts due to former executives and consultants.

 

These liabilities were presented as “liabilities held on divestiture” in prior periods.

 

Included within the liabilities assumed were amounts owed to former and current related parties as follows:

 

 

·

L. John Lewis (former officer of Ga-Du) – $240,000 (accrued compensation)

 

·

S. Randall Oveson (former officer of Ga-Du and current director of the Company) – $240,000 (accrued compensation)

 

·

Andy Tucker (deceased) – $240,000 (accrued compensation)

 

During the year ended January 31, 2026, the Company settled a substantial portion of these liabilities through the issuance of common stock and through negotiated forgiveness arrangements.

 

On January 31, 2026, the Company issued 1,050,000 shares of common stock in settlement of $735,000 of liabilities assumed from Ga-Du. The shares were issued at a stated price of $0.70 per share, with an estimated fair value of approximately $0.265 per share, resulting in total fair value consideration of approximately $278,250. Accordingly, the Company recognized a gain on settlement of approximately $456,750.

 

In addition, during the year ended January 31, 2026, the Company recognized approximately $240,000 of gains related to the forgiveness of liabilities previously assumed from Ga-Du, primarily related to amounts owed to a former consultant.

 

The Company accounted for these transactions in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments, and ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, recognizing gains based on the difference between the carrying value of the liabilities extinguished and the fair value of consideration transferred.

 

NOTE 4 – INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

On April 5, 2023, the Company entered into a Software Acquisition Agreement with eXPO Financial Services LLC pursuant to which the Company acquired all rights, title, and interest in a proprietary software platform known as the eXPO (electronic eXchange portal) for a total purchase price of $100,000, which was paid in full as of January 31, 2024.

 

The acquired software platform was a complete product that was ready for its intended use upon acquisition. Software-related costs incurred during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2026 represented customizations that did not constitute significant modifications or enhancements to the platform’s functionality and were expensed as incurred. The Company did not capitalize any software development costs during the periods presented.

 

The acquired software is recorded as an intangible asset at cost. The Company evaluates its intangible assets for impairment in accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.

 

As of January 31, 2026 and 2025, no impairment has been identified.

 

The Company expects to amortize the software over an estimated useful life of three years once the asset is placed into service. As of January 31, 2026, the software has not been placed into service and, accordingly, no amortization expense has been recognized.

NOTE 9 – CAPITAL STOCK

 

Common Stock

 

Effective May 4, 2026, the Company effected a 1-for-25 reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock. All share and per-share amounts presented in these consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split for all periods presented, unless otherwise indicated. As a result of the May 4, 2026 reverse stock split, the stated capital represented by common stock was reduced by approximately $59,982 due solely to the reduction in issued shares at the unchanged par value of $0.0001 per share. The corresponding amount was reclassified to additional paid-in capital. The reverse stock split had no effect on total stockholders' deficit.

 

The Company is authorized to issue 650,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2026, the Company issued an aggregate of 22,834,297 shares of restricted common stock in connection with the settlement of accrued compensation, accounts payable, notes payable, convertible notes, and related party obligations, as further described in Notes 5 through 8 and Note 10. These transactions were effected at a stated price of $0.70 per share, representing an aggregate settlement amount of approximately $15,984,008. For accounting purposes, the equity instruments issued were measured based on the estimated fair value of the Company’s common stock at the date of issuance, in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, and the related gains on settlement were recognized in accordance with ASC 470-50, Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments.

 

As of January 31, 2026, the Company had 24,992,656 shares of common stock issued, of which 40,000 shares were held as treasury stock, resulting in 24,952,656 shares of common stock outstanding.

 

As of January 31, 2025, the Company had approximately 2,158,359 shares of common stock issued, of which 40,000 shares were held as treasury stock, resulting in approximately 2,118,359 shares of common stock outstanding.

NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes.

 

For the years ended January 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company did not record a current or deferred income tax provision or benefit due to operating losses and the full valuation allowance recorded against its deferred tax assets. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, as well as for net operating loss carryforwards.

 

Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets consisted of the following:

 

 

 

January 31,

2026

 

 

January 31,

2025

 

Net operating loss carryforwards

$

 

 

The Company assesses the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be realized. Based upon the Company’s history of losses since inception, management has determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized, and accordingly, a full valuation allowance has been recorded as of January 31, 2026, and 2025.

 

Net Operating Loss Carryforwards

 

As of January 31, 2026, the Company had approximately $69.4 million of federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards available to offset future taxable income (January 31, 2025 – $68.0 million).

 

Approximately $43.5 million of these NOL carryforwards, if not utilized, will begin to expire in 2037 for federal tax purposes, while the remaining NOLs may be carried forward indefinitely.

 

Effective Tax Rate Reconciliation

 

A reconciliation of the statutory federal income tax rate to the Company’s effective tax rate is as follows:

 

 

 

2026

 

 

2025

 

U.S. federal statutory rate

 

 

21.0%

(21.0)%

 

 

(21.0)%

0.0%

 

The Company is incorporated and operates in the State of Nevada, which does not impose a state-level corporate income tax. Accordingly, no state income tax provision has been recognized for the periods presented.

 

Pursuant to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, the Company’s ability to utilize its net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) may be substantially limited if the Company experiences an ownership change. Generally, an ownership change occurs when ownership of the Company’s stock changes by more than 50 percentage points among certain stockholders over a rolling three-year period.

 

During the year ended January 31, 2026, the Company completed significant debt settlement and equity issuance transactions involving the issuance of a substantial number of shares of common stock. These transactions may constitute, individually or in the aggregate, an ownership change for purposes of Section 382.

 

If an ownership change has occurred, utilization of the Company’s NOL carryforwards could be subject to an annual limitation determined by reference to the value of the Company’s stock immediately prior to the ownership change and the applicable long-term tax-exempt rate. Any unused annual limitation may generally be carried forward to future periods.

 

The Company has not completed a formal Section 382 study to determine whether an ownership change has occurred or the extent to which the Company’s NOL carryforwards may be limited. Accordingly, no adjustments have been made to reduce the Company’s deferred tax assets or NOL carryforwards for potential Section 382 limitations.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

 

The Company applies the provisions of ASC 740-10 related to uncertain tax positions. The Company recognizes the effect of uncertain tax positions when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities.

 

As of January 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company has not recognized any liability for unrecognized tax benefits and does not believe there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.

 

The Company files income tax returns in the jurisdictions in which it operates and is subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities.

 

As of January 31, 2026, there are no ongoing income tax examinations. However, tax years remain open to examination to the extent that net operating loss carryforwards are utilized in future periods.
