TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER
31, 2023
NOTE
1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS, LIQUIDITY & GOING CONCERN
After
formation, the Company was in the business of mineral exploration. On May 3, 2010, the Company sold its mineral exploration business
and entered into an Intellectual Property Assignment Agreement (“IP Agreement”) with Soren Nielsen pursuant to which Mr.
Nielsen transferred his right, title and interest in all intellectual property relating to certain chewing gum compositions having appetite
suppressant activity (the “IP”) to the Company for the issuance of 55,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.
Following
the acquisition of the IP the Company changed its business direction to pursue the development of chewing gums for the delivery of Nutraceutical/functional
ingredients for applications such as appetite suppressant, cholesterol suppressant, vitamin delivery, antioxidant delivery and motion
sickness suppressant.
On
January 19, 2021, the Company entered into an Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with ABTI Pharma Limited, a company
registered in England and Wales (“ABTI Pharma”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire all of the outstanding shares
of capital stock of ABTI Pharma from its shareholders in exchange for 600,000,000 shares of the Company pro rata to the ABTI Pharma shareholders.
The shares were issued on January 29, 2021 in anticipation of the closing and the parties to the transaction agreed in a March 24, 2021
amendment to close upon the ABTI Pharma Limited Shares being transferred to the Company, which was to occur upon the filing by the Company
of its outstanding September 30, 2020 quarterly report on Form 10-Q, which was filed on May 28, 2021 with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The transaction closed on May 28, 2021.
The
transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition and recapitalization. ABTI Pharma is the acquirer for accounting purposes and
the Company is the issuer. The historical financial statements presented are the financial statements of ABTI. The Agreement was treated
as a recapitalization and not as a business combination; at the date of the acquisition, the net liabilities of the legal acquirer, Alterola,
were $389,721.
The
business plan of the company isl no longer focused on a chewing gum delivery system but was re-focused on the development of cannabinoid,
cannabinoid-like, and non-cannabinoid pharmaceutical active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), pharmaceutical medicines made from cannabinoid,
cannabinoid-like, and non-cannabinoid APIs and European novel food approval of cannabinoid-based, cannabinoid-like and non-cannabinoid
ingredients and products .In addition, the company plans to develop such bulk ingredients for supply into the cosmetic sector.
On
December 2, 2021, the Company closed an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with C2 Wellness Corp., a Wyoming
corporation, and Dr. G. Sridhar Prasad (together, the “Seller”) and acquired certain IP assets (the “Assets”)
from Seller, which include:
| • | Novel
cannabinoid molecules and their associated intellectual property; |
| • | Novel
cannabinoid pro-drugs, and their associated intellectual property; |
| • | Novel
proprietary cannabinoid formulations, designed to target lymphatic delivery, and their associated
intellectual property; |
| • | Novel
proprietary nano-encapsulated cannabinoid formulations, in self-dissolving polymers, and
their associated intellectual property; and |
| • | Cannabinoids
and cannabinoid pro-drug formulations for topical ocular delivery, and their associated intellectual
property. |
In
exchange for the Assets, the Company issued to Seller shares of common stock. On September 8, 2023, the Company and Seller entered into
an Agreement to sell the assets, such that the Company sold the assets back to the Seller and the Seller paid 29,015,993
shares of ABTI common stock to the Company. The
assets were sold to the Seller in September 2023.
As
of July 5, 2023, we acquired intellectual property from Alinova Biosciences Ltd. We acquired Alinova’s joint interest in the patent
family of PTX 0001. We paid 35,000 Sterling in cash and 5,000,000 shares of ABTI Stock.

BIOTECH, INC.
NOTES
TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER
31, 2023
LIQUIDITY & GOING CONCERN
Alterola
has negative working capital of $1,160,035, has incurred losses since inception of $11,946,656, and has not received revenues from sales
of products or services. These factors create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The
financial statements do not include any adjustment that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The
ability of Alterola to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company generating cash from the sale of its common stock and/or
obtaining debt financing and attaining future profitable operations. Management’s plans include selling its equity securities and
obtaining debt financing to fund its capital requirement and ongoing operations; however, there can be no assurance the Company will
be successful in these efforts.
NOTE
2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of Presentation
These
unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America (“US GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
They include the accounts of Alterola and its wholly owned subsidiaries ABTI Pharma, Phytotherapeutix Ltd and Ferven Ltd.. All material
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
These
financial statements and the notes attached hereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in
the Company’s 10-K for its fiscal year ended March 31, 2023. In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments, including normal recurring
adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company, as of December 31, 2023, and the results of its operations
and cash flows for the three and nine months then ended have been included. The results of operations for the interim period are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the full year ending March 31, 2024.
The
Company had a September 30 fiscal year end. Subsequent to the Agreement with ABTI Pharma, the Company has changed its year end from September
30 to March 31.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 the financial statements and the reported
amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash
and Equivalents
For
purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers highly liquid financial instruments purchased with a maturity of three
months or less to be cash equivalents.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
Alterola’s
financial instruments consist of cash and equivalents, accrued expenses, accrued interest and notes payable. The carrying amount of these
financial instruments approximates fair value (“FV”) due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate
prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.
FV
is defined as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The FV should
be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific
to the entity. In addition, the FV of liabilities should include consideration of non-performance risk including our own credit risk.
ALTEROLA BIOTECH, INC.
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2023
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES (CONTINUED)
In
addition to defining FV, the disclosure requirements around FV establish a FV hierarchy for valuation inputs which is expanded. The hierarchy
prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring FV are observable in the market. Each
FV measurement is reported in one of the three levels which is determined by the lowest level input that is significant to the FV measurement
in its entirety. These levels are:
Level
1 – inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.
Level
2 – inputs are based upon significant observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for
identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions
are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level
3 – inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimates of assumptions that market participants
would use in pricing the asset or liability. The FV are therefore determined using model-based techniques that include option pricing
models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques.
The
carrying value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities which consist of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities,
and notes payable are valued using level 1 inputs. The Company believes that the recorded values approximate their FV due to the short
maturity of such instruments. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant
interest, exchange or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.
Income
Taxes
Income
taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities
are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using
the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available
evidence, are not expected to be realized.
Foreign
Currency Translation
The
financial statements are presented in US Dollars. Transactions with foreign subsidiaries where US dollars are not the functional currency
will be recorded in accordance with Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)
Topic 830 Foreign Currency Transaction. According to Topic 830, all assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate
on the balance sheet date, stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operations items are translated
at the weighted average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income
(loss) in accordance with ASC Topic 220, Comprehensive Income. Gains and losses resulting from the translations of foreign currency
transactions and balances are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss).
Revenue
Recognition
On
January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), using the modified
retrospective method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods
beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under ASC 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported
in accordance with our historic accounting under ASC 605. As of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, the financial statements
were not materially impacted as a result of the application of Topic 606 compared to Topic 605.

NOTE
2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Loss
Per Common Share
Basic
loss per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each reporting period. Diluted loss
per share includes potentially dilutive securities such as outstanding options and warrants, using various methods such as the treasury
stock or modified treasury stock method in the determination of dilutive shares outstanding during each reporting period. The Company
does not have any potentially dilutive instruments.
Stock-Based
Compensation
Stock-based
compensation is accounted for at FV in accordance with ASC Topic 718. To date, the Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has
not granted any stock options
Research
and development
We engage in a variety of research and development
activities to develop our technologies and work toward development of a saleable product. When it is determined that the research and
development products we are creating have reached a point where saleable products are possible, these amounts are capitalized. As of December
31, 2023 and March 31 ,2023 there are no capitalized research and development costs.
The research and development costs incurred by the
company relate to the following:
|
• |
Licenses
for patent and know-how ( Nano 4 M) - this relates to the company’s formulation of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients ( API)
for its lead pharmaceutical programs. |
|
• |
Protein Technologies Ltd – this relates to the company’s research into production of cannabinoids by biosynthesis (as opposed to botanical production by growing plants). The company has genetically modified an organism to produce cannabinoids by fermentation ( similar to methodology used for the production of antibiotics) |
|
• |
Apex Molecular Ltd.-
the company has a number of pharmaceutical development programs using both novel and natural molecules. The Company employs third
party chemistry / contract, manufacturing companies such as Apex Molecular Ltd. to synthesize and purify these compounds for their
pharmaceutical development programs. |
|
• |
Acquisition of intellectual property from Alinova Biosciences Ltd. |
|
• |
Continued patent prosecution and internationalization of company intellectual property. |
|
• |
Staff costs and consultancy costs relating to R & D. |
Other
Intangible Assets
We
have recorded the assets acquired as part of the C2 Wellness acquisition as indefinite lived Intangible assets. Indefinite life intangible
assets recorded are not amortized and, as a result, are assessed for impairment at least annually, using either a qualitative or quantitative
process. We performed this annual assessment as of March 31, 2023, noting no factors indicating possible impairment of intangible assets
recognized.
Risks
and Uncertainties
On
January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the coronavirus outbreak a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern”
and on March 10, 2020, declared it to be a pandemic. Actions taken around the world to help mitigate the spread of the coronavirus
include restrictions on travel, and quarantines in certain areas, and forced closures for certain types of public places and business.
The Coronavirus and actions taken to mitigate it have had and are expected to have an adverse impact on the economies and financial markets
of many countries, including the geographical area in which the Company plans to operate.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
Alterola
does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results
of operations, financial position or cash flow.

Overview
Our
Business
Our goal is to provide better medicines for patients
around the world. We believe in harnessing the therapeutic potential of cannabinoids and cannabinoid- like compounds, which can be developed
into valuable treatments to seriously ill patients. Rather than just focusing on one method of identifying, researching and developing
such medicines, we are interested in developing new medicines from all sources including botanical, traditional chemical synthesis and
biosynthetic methodologies.
On May 28, 2021, we acquired ABTI Pharma Limited,
a company registered in England and Wales (“ABTI Pharma”), with the purchase of all of its capital stock in exchange for 600,000,000
shares of our common stock pro rata to the ABTI Pharma shareholders.
As a result of the acquisition, we are a pharmaceutical
company working with cannabinoid and cannabinoid like molecules. We have three areas of focus:
|
1) |
Development of regulated pharmaceuticals (human and animal health) and regulated food products. This has been achieved via the strategic acquisition of Phytotherapeutix Ltd.; |
|
2) |
Production of low cost of goods Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) and food-grade ingredients (supported by the strategic acquisition of Ferven Ltd); and |
|
3) |
Formulation, and drug delivery, providing improved bioavailability, solubility and stability (supported by the exclusive licensing of IP and technology from Nano4M Ltd). |
Phytotherapeutix Ltd, a subsidiary of ABTI Pharma
Ltd, has generated a number of molecules with patents pending, some of which have demonstrable pharmacological activity, similar to that
of CBD. This means that some of these molecules are anticipated to have a similar market potential to CBD across a range of therapeutic
areas.
Ferven Ltd, another subsidiary of ABTI Pharma Ltd,
is looking to produce cannabinoids by fermentation. The exclusively licensed organism has the potential to be genetically modified to
produce multiple cannabinoids at an anticipated very low cost of goods. It is anticipated that the selected genetically modified organisms
will grow very quickly, which in turn, reduces the cost of production.
Nano4M Ltd is a company which has exclusively licensed
its nano-formulation patents and know-how to ABTI Pharma Ltd.
Additionally, we may consider entering into Joint
Venture Partnerships, or acquire companies with complimentary portfolios or enter into Licensing Agreements to enhance the product portfolio.
These are strategies the Company may implement and any such opportunities will be assessed on a case by case basis and on their merit
at the time.
Alterola and ABTI Pharma Ltd management have extensive
experience, know-how and connections in the cannabinoid medicines sector, and are looking to utilize this knowledge and experience for
the development of such medicines from existing cannabinoids and cannabinoid-like molecules.
Our address is 47 Hamilton Square Birkenhead Merseyside
CH41 5AR United Kingdom. Our telephone number is +44 151 601 9477. Our website is www.alterolabio.com. The company has a fully operational

Results of Operations for the Three and Nine Months
Ended December 31, 2023 and 2022
We
have generated no revenues since inception and we do not anticipate earning revenue until such time that we are able to market and sell
our ingredients and / or products / medicines.
We incurred operating expenses of $1,108,947 for the
three months ended December 31, 2023, as compared with $540,621 for the same period ended 2022. We incurred operating expenses of $1,825,671
for the nine months ended December 31, 2023, as compared with $1,823,992 for the same period ended 2022.
Our operating expenses for the nine months ended December
31, 2023 increased over the same period in 2022 mainly as a result of more spent on consulting fees and accounting and audit fees. Our
operating expenses for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 were mainly the result of $995,099 in consulting fees, $273,659 in professional
fees, $227,575 in director fees and expenses, $99,982 in accounting and audit fees, and $96,315 in salaries and wages. Our operating expenses
for the nine months ended December 31, 2022 were mainly the result of $546,571 in directors fees and expenses, $481,429 in consulting
fees, $363,193 in professional fees, $101,238 in salaries and wages, $86,816 in accounting and audit fees and $41,086 in research and
development.
We had other expenses of $406,575 and $544,738 for
the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, for losses on the conversion of a note, with no other expense for the
same periods ended December 31, 2022.
If we are able to obtain financing, we expect that
our operational expenses will increase significantly for the balance of the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024 and beyond. This would be
the result of increased research and development expenses associated with our product candidates, the development of those candidates
in compliance with regulatory processes, laws and regulations, increased payroll as we take on more help, as well as the expenses associated
with our reporting obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
We recorded a net loss of $1,515,522 for the three
months ended December 31, 2023, as compared with $534,789 for the same period ended 2022. We recorded a net loss of $2,370,409 for the
nine months ended December 31, 2023, as compared with $1,722,691 for the same period ended 2022.
As a relatively recently formed pharmaceutical company,
the company has limited operations to date, and expects to have reoccurring losses, as is typical with companies in the pharmaceutical
industry, for the foreseeable future. As explained above, the company intends to raise capital and ramp up its efforts to bring its product
candidates to market. This will require significant capital, product development to continue and complete and momentum on those product
candidates through the regulatory process. There are no assurances that we will be able to generate revenues and achieve profitable operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2023, we had $198,389 in current
assets, consisting mostly of a deferred tax credit, and current liabilities of $1,358,424. We had a working capital deficit of $1,160,035
as of December 31, 2023, compared with a working capital deficit of $2,322,023 as of September 30, 2023.
We used cash for operating activities of $1,513,275
for the nine months ended December 31, 2023, as compared with cash used of $1,156,498 for the same period ended 2022. Our negative operating
cash flow the nine months ended December 31, 2023 was mainly the result of a net loss, offset mainly by shares issued for services, to
directors and others. Our negative operating cash flow for 2022 was mainly the result of a net loss, net changes in operating assets and
liabilities and deferred tax credit offset by shares issued for services.
We
used $0 in cash for investing activities for the nine months ended December 31, 2023, as compared with $18,147 in cash provided
for the same period ended 2022.
Financing activities provided $1,289,563 for the nine
months ended December 31, 2023, mainly as a result of shares issued for conversion of debt to equity and loan from related parties. Financing
activities provided $1,093,405 for the nine months ended December 31, 2022, as a result of related party notes.
Based
upon our current financial condition, we do not have sufficient cash to operate our business at the current level for the next 12 months.
We intend to fund operations through short-term or long-term debt and/or equity financing arrangements, however this may be insufficient
to fund expenditures or other cash requirements. We plan to seek additional financing in a private equity offering to secure funding for
operations. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional funding. If we are not able to secure additional
funding, the implementation of our business plan will be impaired. There can be no assurance that such additional financing will be available
to us on acceptable terms or at all.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2023, we had no off-balance sheet
arrangements.
Going Concern
Our
financial statements were prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction
of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have negative working capital of $1,160,035 as
of December 31, 2023, and have an accumulated deficit
of $11,946,656. We expect to incur further losses in the development of our business and have been dependent on funding operations from
inception. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans include
continuing to finance operations through the private or public placement of debt and/or equity securities and the reduction of expenditures.
However, no assurance can be given at this time as to whether we will be able to achieve these objectives. The financial statements do
not include any adjustment relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification
of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
Item 3. Quantitative
and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
A smaller reporting company is not required to provide
the information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and
Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness
of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of
December 31, 2023. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and
our Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of
December 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the presence of material weaknesses in internal control
over financial reporting.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination
of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement
of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management has identified
the following material weaknesses which have caused management to conclude that, as of December 31, 2023, our disclosure controls and
procedures were not effective: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient written policies
and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both US GAAP and SEC guidelines.
Remediation Plan to Address the Material Weaknesses
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our company plans to take steps to enhance and improve
the design of internal controls over financial reporting. In October 2023, the company appointed a new Chief Financial Officer. During
the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above.
To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to implement the following changes during our fiscal year ending March 31, 2024: (i) appoint additional
qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; and (ii) adopt sufficient written policies
and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. The remediation efforts set out are largely dependent upon our securing additional
financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts
may be adversely affected in a material manner.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Aside from above, there were no changes in our internal
control over financial reporting during the three months ended December 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonable likely
to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
