The Company was incorporated in the state of Nevada on December 8, 2009, under the name Pristine Solutions, Inc. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Pristine Solutions Limited, was incorporated under the laws of Jamaica. The Company’s original business plan focused on developing a network of sales points for the sale and service of tankless water heaters in Jamaica, through Pristine Solutions Limited. The Company’s aim was to become the first tankless water heater company specializing in tankless-only products to enter the Jamaican market, and the only company in the Jamaican market offering solar-powered tankless water heater products.  As part of its plan, on December 30, 2009, the Company entered into a distribution agreement with Zhongshan Guangsheng Industry Co., Ltd., of China (“Zhongshan”), the manufacturer of the tankless water heaters.   Zhongshan manufactures the tankless water heaters under the brand Gleamous Electric Appliances.




On March 7, 2012, the Company filed a Certificate of Change with the State of Nevada increasing the shares of common stock from 100,000,000 to 650,000,000 common stock; par value $0.0001 and decreasing the shares of Preferred Stock from 100,000,000 to 50,000,000; par value $0.001.




On August 22, 2012, Christine Buchanan-McKenzie, the Company’s former President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer, and a member of the Board of Directors, resigned from all positions with the Company.  The resignation did not involve any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices. On the same day, Mr. Michael Borkowskiwas appointed as President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary, Treasurer, and the sole member of the Board of Directors of the Company.





On August 23, 2012, the Company changed its fiscal year from December 31 to January 31.





On August 23, 2012, the Company and its controlling stockholders entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange”) with Eaton Scientific Systems, Ltd., a Nevada corporation (“ESSL”) and the shareholders of ESSL (the “ESSL Shareholders”), whereby the Company acquired 25,000shares of common stock (100%) of ESSL (the “ESSL Stock”) from the ESSL Shareholders.   In exchange for the ESSL Stock, the Company issued 25,000shares of its common stock to the ESSL Shareholders.  In addition, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Michael J.

(Source: http://www.statista.com/statistics/266488/forecast-of-mobile-app-downloads/).  This is expected to increase to over 268,000,000,000 downloads in fiscal 2017 with projected revenues of over 50 billion dollars.





According to a special report on Digital, Social and Mobile Worldwide users released in January 2015 by We Are Social Ltd. (http://wearesocial.com/uk/special-reports/digital-social-mobile-worldwide-2015) it is estimated that over 3 Billion users (representing approximately 42% of the world’s population), up 7% from the same report issued in January 2014, are using social technologies.





The social applications market continues to grow with successful companies establishing focused services. For example, Facebook brought a person's "friends" in view, Pinterest socialized a browser's bookmarking feature and Waze socialized the GPS. Cornerstone networking consists of Facebook, Twitter, WordPress, Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest, YouTube, Skype and Tumblr. Our goal, supported by our owned and licensed technologies and based upon content created in house by our officers and directors, and available in various formats, is to provide consumers and enthusiasts easy access to connect with health-and-wellness businesses and like-minded enthusiasts, and to facilitate the research of and purchasing of eco-friendly products ... anytime, anywhere.





Competition





The market for social media applications and information and education based content sites is large and growing. According to various media venues, it is speculated that nearly over one in four people around the world are using social technologies (42% of the world’s population according to the study by We Are Social (http://wearesocial.com/uk/special-reports/digital-social-mobile-worldwide-2015). The largest social media networks in the world, measured by active users, as of January 2016 according to a report by Statistica.com (http://www.statista.com/statistics/272014/global-social-networks-ranked-by-number-of-users/)  were Facebook (1.55bn), WhatsApp (900mm), Chinese social network QZone (653mn), WeChat (650mn), Tumblr (555mn), Twitter (320mn) and Instagram (400mm). This market is extremely competitive and characterized by well-funded existing players, high capital inflows, and rapidly changing technologies. In addition to competitive and technological challenges, participants in the social media industry must remain flexible enough to accommodate changes in consumer preferences and tastes.  We hope to reduce competition by targeting only those topics, concepts and content focused on building eco-friendly businesses and living healthy lifestyles, with our unique apps, channels and other social media efforts, including blogs.

MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS





The Company’s Common Stock is quoted on the OTC Markets Pink Sheets under the trading symbol “ESSI”, which was issued to the Company on January 3, 2013. Because the Company is quoted on the OTC Markets Pink Sheets, its securities may be less liquid, receive less coverage by security analysts and news media, and generate lower prices than might otherwise be obtained if they were listed on a national securities exchange.





The high and low prices of the Company’s common shares, as adjusted for stock splits, for the periods indicated below are as follows:

The Company’s common stock is subject to rules adopted by the Commission regulating broker dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks.” Those disclosure rules applicable to “penny stocks” require a broker dealer, prior to a transaction in a “penny stock” not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized list disclosure document prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission. That disclosure document advises an investor that investment in “penny stocks” can be very risky and that the investor’s salesperson or broker is not an impartial advisor but rather paid to sell the shares. The disclosure contains further warnings for the investor to exercise caution in connection with an investment in “penny stocks,” to independently investigate the security, as well as the salesperson with whom the investor is working and to understand the risky nature of an investment in this security. The broker dealer must also provide the customer with certain other information and must make a special written determination that the “penny stock” is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. Further, the rules require that, following the proposed transaction, the broker provide the customer with monthly account statements containing market information about the prices of the securities.





These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for its common stock. Many brokers may be unwilling to engage in transactions in its common stock because of the added disclosure requirements, thereby making it more difficult for stockholders to dispose of their shares.





Record Holders





The Company’s common shares are issued in registered form. Empire Stock Transfer Inc., 1859 Whitney Mesa Drive, Henderson, NV 89014, (702) 818-5898, is the registrar and transfer agent for the Company’s common shares.





As of January 31, 2016, the Empire Stock Transfer Inc. shareholders' list of the Company’s common shares showed 97 registered shareholders and 28,226,349 shares outstanding, all of which have been recorded by the Company.





Re-Purchase of Equity Securities





On February 26, 2016 the Company announced it had canceled 1,000,000 shares of common stock, as part of a stock buyback program designed to increase current shareholder value by repurchasing and retiring existing outstanding common stock.





Under the stock repurchase program, and depending on market conditions, shares may be repurchased from time to time at prevailing market prices through open-market or negotiated transactions in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations. To remain in compliance with item 703 of Regulation S-K the Company, whether through an open market or private transaction, will at a minimum disclose on a quarterly basis all repurchases of equity securities.

Dividends

However, the Company does not anticipate declaring and paying dividends to its shareholders in the near future.





Equity Compensation Plan Information





On September 1, 2012, the board of directors of the Company adopted the 2012 Employee Stock Option Plan (the “2012 Plan”).  Under the 2012 Plan, 25,000,000 restricted shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance upon exercise of options granted from time to time under the stock option plan. The 2012 Plan is intended to assist the Company in securing and retaining key employees, directors and consultants by allowing them to participate in the Company’s ownership and growth through the grant of incentive and non-qualified options. Under the 2012 Plan, the Company may grant incentive stock options only to key employees and employee directors, or the Company may grant non-qualified options to employees, officers, directors and consultants. Subject to the provisions of the 2012 Plan, the board of directors will determine who shall receive options, and the number of shares of common stock that may be purchased under the options.

Overview of Current Operations





Results of Operations for the years ended January 31, 2016 and 2015





During the fiscal years ended January 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company has not generated any revenues.





As at January 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company had $6,706 and $13,322 in cash and total current assets.





During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2016, the Company incurred total operating expenses of $727,828, of which  $493,750 was stock-based compensation as a result of the issuance of certain stock options in fiscal year 2015, as compared to total operating expenses of $1,071,782, of which  945,000 was stock-based compensation as a result of the issuance of certain stock options in fiscal year 2014 for the same period in the prior fiscal year. General and administrative expenses in the fiscal year ended January 31, 2016 totaled $234,078 as compared to $126,782 in the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015, the substantive increase to which is entirely related to certain advertising fees incurred in the amount of $35,000 for planned technical development/maintenance, production and staging server administration, ongoing marketing services and monthly advertising management  and $73,510 with respect to advertising fees in relation to the Company’s current business focus.


In addition, the company recorded interest expense of $28,338 and $18,554 in respect of certain convertible note agreements. During fiscal 2016 the Company incurred a loss on the divestiture of a technology application acquired in August 2015 called “Stay Hydrated” of $150,000 when new management determined to cancel the agreement and return the technology to the original holders in exchange for the return and cancellation of 1,500,000 shares, as it was not in-line with the objectives of the Company moving forward.  There was no comparative expense in fiscal 2015.  Further, the Company determined to impair the value of its newly acquired discrete communications software platform, which was recorded as an intangible asset valued at $3,500 based on the fair market value of the 500,000 shares of stock issuable under the acquisition agreement on the date of the transaction,  following an evaluation of the technology at the fiscal year end which determined recovery of the value of the asset was indeterminate during the present stage of the Company’s execution of its revised business focus to operate in the eco friendly technology sector using social media sites and offering apps to generate advertising revenues and download fees.
 
 The net loss in fiscal 2016 totaled $909,716 as compared to $1,090,336 in 2015.   The Company used net cash in operations of $72,866 and $140,066 respectively during the twelve month periods ended January 31, 2016 and 2015, recorded no cash used in or provided by investing activities, and received cash from financing activities of $66,250 and $147,704, predominantly as a result of related party loans.





Plan of Operation





We have recently changed the focus of our business to operate in the eco friendly technology sector using social media sites and offering apps to generate advertising revenues and download fees.  The Company's need for ongoing capital by way of loans, sale of equity and/or convertible notes is expected to continue during the current fiscal year until we can establish revenues from operations. We are presently financing ongoing licensing support and maintenance fees associated with our newly commenced business focus by the issuance of shares of common stock for services at a discount to our market price. There are no assurances additional capital will be available to the Company on acceptable terms.





Future funding could result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities and/or amortization expenses related to goodwill and other intangible assets, which could materially adversely affect the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition. Any future funding might require the Company to obtain additional equity or debt financing, which might not be available on terms favorable to the Company, or at all, and such financing, if available, might be dilutive.





Going Concern
 
 These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated significant revenues to date and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future.  As at January 31, 2016, the Company had a working capital deficit of $709,805 and an accumulated deficit of $9,892,593. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability to raise equity or debt financing, and the attainment of profitable operations from the Company's future business. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 (See Financial Footnote 1.)
 
 Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
 As of January 31, 2016, the Company had total current assets of $6,706, and total current liabilities of $716,511. The Company has limited financial resources available outside loans from its officers and directors and funds it has obtained through use of convertible debt instruments and loans with third parties.  While the Company is working towards generating revenue to offset some of its existing operating expenditures, it is possible that without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern. In order for the Company to remain a Going Concern it may need to find additional capital. Additional working capital may be sought through additional debt or equity private placements, additional notes payable to banks or related parties (officers, directors or stockholders), or from other available funding sources at market rates of interest, or a combination of these. The ability to raise necessary financing will depend on many factors, including the nature and prospects of any business to be acquired and the economic and market conditions prevailing at the time financing is sought. During the most recently completed fiscal year management has obtained additional funding with success, however there is no guarantee we will be able to continue to obtain financing if and when required. The current economic downturn may make it difficult to find new capital sources for the Company should they be required.


17


Future Financings





We anticipate continuing to rely related party and third party loans and/or equity sales of our common shares and/or shares for services rendered in order to continue to fund our business operations in the event of ongoing operational shortfalls. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing shareholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any of additional sales of our equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our research and development activities.





Revenue




The Company has recently launched the first applications and channels in respect of our major business activity.  As yet we are unable to predict when we may commence generating revenues from these operations.





Cost of sales





Costs of sales are expected to include licensing, marketing and maintenance fees in respect to our proprietary software platform and licensed software services.  In addition, we can expect to incur fees associated with gaining followers for our YouTube channels and the advertising of our downloadable applications.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements





The Company has no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.





18


Critical Accounting Policies





The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s consolidated audited financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. The Company believes that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of the Company’s financial statements is critical to an understanding of its consolidated financial statements.





Use of Estimates





The preparation of consolidated 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 consolidated 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.





Cash and Cash Equivalents





The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of January 31, 2016 and January 31, 2015, respectively, the Company had no cash equivalents.





Technology and licensing rights (Intangible assets)
 
 Technology and licensing rights are recorded at cost and capitalized, and are reviewed for impairment at a minimum of once per year or whenever events or changes in circumstances suggest a need for evaluation.
  Advertising and Marketing Costs
 
 Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred and were $73,510 during the year ended January 31, 2016 and $Nil in the year ended January 31, 2015.
  Impairment of Long-Lived Assets


Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Whenever any such impairment exists, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value. During the years ended January 31, 2016 and 2015, there was $3,500 and $nil impairment of long-lived asset, respectively.





Fair Value Measurements





Pursuant to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosuresand ASC 825, Financial Instruments, an entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 and 825 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 and 825 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:





Level 1
Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.Level 2
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.Level 3
Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.





The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities. Pursuant to ASC 820 and 825, the fair value of cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.





Revenue Recognition





The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605, Revenue Recognition. Revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service has been provided, and collectability is reasonably assured.  As of January 31, 2016, no revenue has been recognized, as the Company has not commenced revenue generating operations.





Cost of Revenue





Costs of revenue consist of the direct expenses incurred in order to generate revenue. Such costs are recorded as incurred. Our cost of revenue will consist consists primarily of fees associated with the operation of our social media venues and  fulfillment of specific customer advertising campaigns related to our downloadable apps.


19


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.





Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share





The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earning per Share.  ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of 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 preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.




Recently issued accounting pronouncements


In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810), Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis that meant to clarify the consolidation reporting guidance in GAAP. This guidance is to be applied using a retrospective method or a modified retrospective method, as outlined in the guidance, and is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early application is permitted. The Company has adopted the guidance and the adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.





In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest – Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which requires an entity to present debt issuance costs related to a debt liability as a direct deduction from the debt liability rather than as an asset. ASU 2015-03 is effective retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015. As the Company does not currently have any debt obligations, the adoption of this standard will not impact the presentation of certain financial statement line items within the Company's balance sheets, results of operations, and related disclosures.





In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting Measurement-Period Adjustments, which eliminates the requirement for an entity to retrospectively adjust the financial statements for measurement-period adjustments that occur in periods after a business combination is completed. ASU 2015-16 is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of this standard will not have an impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations.





In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes. The amendments in ASU 2015-17 require that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as non-current in a classified statement of financial position. The current requirement that deferred tax liabilities and assets of a tax-paying component of an entity be offset and presented as a single amount is not affected by the amendments in the update. ASU 2015-17 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those years, and may be applied either prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets or retrospectively to all periods presented. The adoption of this standard will not have an impact on the Company's financial position.





In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This new standard provides guidance on how entities measure certain equity investments and present changes in the fair value. This standard requires that entities measure certain equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income. ASU 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of this guidance and assessing its impact on the Company's financial statements and disclosures.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM








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





We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Eco Science Solutions, Inc. (“the Company”) as of January 31, 2016 and the related statement of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.





We conducted our audit in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.





In our opinion, the financial statement referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Eco Science Solutions, Inc., as of January 31, 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.





The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.





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 suffered recurring losses from operations and has a significant accumulated deficit. In addition, the Company continues to experience negative cash flows from operations. These factors 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.

ECO SCIENCE SOLUTIONS, INC.


NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


JANUARY 31, 2016





NOTE 1: NATURE OF BUSINESS AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS (cont’d)


Going Concern


These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated significant revenues to date and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future.  As at January 31, 2016, the Company had a working capital deficit of $709,805 and an accumulated deficit of $9,892,593. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability to raise equity or debt financing, and the attainment of profitable operations from the Company's future business. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
  The 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 shown. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.





NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES





This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements.  These accounting policies conform to accounting principles, generally accepted in the United States of America, and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.





Basis of Presentation





These consolidated financial statements and related notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and are expressed in US dollars. The Company’s fiscal year end is January 31.





Use of Estimates





The preparation of consolidated 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 consolidated 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.





Cash and Cash Equivalents





The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. As of January 31, 2016 and January 31, 2015, respectively, the Company had cash, but no cash equivalents.

ECO SCIENCE SOLUTIONS, INC.


NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


JANUARY 31, 2016





NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d)





Technology and licensing rights (Intangible assets)
 
 Technology and licensing rights are recorded at cost and capitalized, and are reviewed for impairment at a minimum of once per year or whenever events or changes in circumstances suggest a need for evaluation.
 Advertising and Marketing Costs
 
 Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred and were $73,510 during the year ended January 31, 2016 and $Nil in the year ended January 31, 2015.


Impairment of Long-Lived Assets


Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Whenever any such impairment exists, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value. During the year ended January 31, 2016 the Company impaired $3,500 in long-lived assets relative to the acquisition of a communications platform.  In fiscal 2015 there was no impairment of long-lived assets.





Fair Value Measurements





Pursuant to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosuresand ASC 825, Financial Instruments, an entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 and 825 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 and 825 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:





Level 1
Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.Level 2
Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.Level 3
Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.





The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities. Pursuant to ASC 820 and 825, the fair value of cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d)





Cost of Revenue





Costs of revenue consist of the direct expenses incurred in order to generate revenue. Such costs are recorded as incurred. Our cost of revenue will consist consists primarily of fees associated with the operation of our social media venues and fulfillment of specific customer advertising campaigns related to our downloadable apps.





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.





Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share





The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earning per Share.  ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of 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 preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.





Recently issued accounting pronouncements





In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810), Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis that meant to clarify the consolidation reporting guidance in GAAP. This guidance is to be applied using a retrospective method or a modified retrospective method, as outlined in the guidance, and is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early application is permitted. The Company has adopted the guidance and the adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.





In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest – Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which requires an entity to present debt issuance costs related to a debt liability as a direct deduction from the debt liability rather than as an asset. ASU 2015-03 is effective retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015. As the Company does not currently have any debt obligations, the adoption of this standard will not impact the presentation of certain financial statement line items within the Company's balance sheets, results of operations, and related disclosures.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d)





In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting Measurement-Period Adjustments, which eliminates the requirement for an entity to retrospectively adjust the financial statements for measurement-period adjustments that occur in periods after a business combination is completed. ASU 2015-16 is effective prospectively for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of this standard will not have an impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations.





In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes. The amendments in ASU 2015-17 require that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as non-current in a classified statement of financial position. The current requirement that deferred tax liabilities and assets of a tax-paying component of an entity be offset and presented as a single amount is not affected by the amendments in the update. ASU 2015-17 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those years, and may be applied either prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets or retrospectively to all periods presented. The adoption of this standard will not have an impact on the Company's financial position.





In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. This new standard provides guidance on how entities measure certain equity investments and present changes in the fair value. This standard requires that entities measure certain equity investments that do not result in consolidation and are not accounted for under the equity method at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income. ASU 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2017. The Company is currently evaluating the provisions of this guidance and assessing its impact on the Company's financial statements and disclosures.

During the quarter ended October 31, 2015, and through the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015, up to the date of dismissal of Seale & Beers, (a) there were no disagreements with Seale & Beers on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Seale & Beers, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in its reports on the financial statements for such year and (b) there were no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.





We have provided a copy of the above disclosures to Seale & Beers and requested them to provide us a letter addressed to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not Seale & Beers agrees with the above disclosures.

ITEM 9A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES





Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures





Our management, under supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based upon this evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of January 31, 2016, because of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting (“ICFR”) described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.





Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that required information to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that required information to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.





Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting





Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined under Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 14d-14(f). Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.





All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial reporting reliability and financial statement preparation and presentation. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to risk that controls become inadequate because of changes in conditions and that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.





22


Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2016. In making the assessment, management used the criteria issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework 2013. Based on its assessment, management concluded that, as of January 31, 2016, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective and that material weaknesses in ICFR existed as more fully described below.





As defined by Auditing Standard No. 5, “An Audit of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting that is Integrated with an Audit of Financial Statements” established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”), a material weakness is a deficiency or combination of deficiencies that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. In connection with the assessment described above, management identified the following control deficiencies that represent material weaknesses as of January 31, 2016:





1)
Lack of an independent audit committee or audit committee financial expert, and no independent directors. We do not have any members of the Board who are independent directors and we do not have an audit committee. These factors may be counter to corporate governance practices as defined by the various stock exchanges and may lead to less supervision over management;2)
Insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements;





Management's Remediation Initiatives





As of January 31, 2016, management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, it was concluded that during the period covered by this report, the internal controls and procedures were not effective due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal controls over financial reporting. However, management believes these weaknesses did not have an effect on our financial results. During the course of our evaluation, we did not discover any fraud involving management or any other personnel who play a significant role in our disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls over financial reporting.





Due to a lack of financial and personnel resources, we are not able to, and do not intend to, immediately take any action to remediate these material weaknesses. We will not be able to do so until, if ever, we acquire sufficient financing and staff to do so. We will implement further controls as circumstances, cash flow, and working capital permits. Notwithstanding the assessment that our ICFR was not effective and that there were material weaknesses as identified in this report, we believe that our financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended January 31, 2016, fairly presents our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods covered, as identified, in all material respects.





Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth above were the result of the scale of our operations and intrinsic to our small size. Management also believes that these weaknesses did not have an effect on our financial results.





This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.





Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting





During the period covered by this report, there were no changes (including corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses) in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

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





Related Party Transactions





None of the directors or executive officers of the Company, nor any person who owned of record or was known to own beneficially more than 5% of the Company’s outstanding shares of its Common Stock, nor any associate or affiliate of such persons or companies, has any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction that has occurred during the year ended January 31, 2016, or in any proposed transaction, which has materially affected or will affect the Company, with the exception of the following:





Convertible notes payable:





As at January 31, 2015 a total of $244,205 was due and payable to the Company’s then President, and a company controlled by the former Chairman of the Board and former majority shareholder, which amount consists of $22,000 in short term notes payable, $164,045 in short term convertible notes payable, and $58,250 in accrued and unpaid compensation to the Company’s former President. The convertible note payable bears interest at a rate of 5% per annum, is due within 90 days of receipt of a notice of demand and is convertible, along with any accrued and unpaid interest on notice date, into shares of the Company’s common stock at the market price on the date of the transaction.





During the fiscal year ended January 31, 2016, a company controlled by the Company’s former Chairman of the Board and majority director contributed an additional $65,000 in proceeds to the demand convertible note payable on the same terms and conditions, and modified the note to include the $22,000 in short term notes so that the principal balance of the convertible note payable as at the fiscal year ended January 31, 2016 totaled $251,045.





On October 1, 2015, the Company issued its former President a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $59,000 for unpaid compensation.  The note bears interest at a rate of 6% per annum, matures on October 1, 2017, and contains a repayment provision which permits the holder to convert the debt into the Company's common stock at a rate of 80% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of conversion.  The conversion discount of 20% of FMV results in a beneficial conversion feature.  As a result, the difference between the conversion rate and the market rate of $14,750 on the date of the transaction has been classified as a discount on the note.  As of January 31, 2016, the Company expensed $2,460 as amortization of the debt discount which is included as interest expense.  As of January 31, 2016, $12,290 of unamortized discount remains, and will be amortized over the next 20 months.





As of January 31, 2016 and January 31, 2015, the Company has accrued $16,053 and $4,306, respectively, in interest on related party loans.  As of January 31, 2016 and January 31, 2015, former related parties are due a total of $296,755 and $244,295, respectively.

On February 15, 2014, in connection with a certain Employment Agreement dated November 15, 2013, its then President was awarded the right to purchase 400,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock (the “Restricted Stock Units”, “RSUs”) at a per share price of $0.001 (the “2013 Stock Award”).  The 2013 Stock Award, valued at $640,000, vested periodically over the period beginning February 15, 2014 through November 15, 2014, at 100,000 RSUs per vesting period.  During the year ended January 31, 2015, the Company recorded deferred compensation in the amount of $640,000, which has been fully expensed in the current year for the 400,000 RSUs vested through January 31, 2015.





On November 15, 2014, in connection with a certain Employment Agreement dated November 15, 2014, its then President was awarded the right to purchase 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock at a per share price of $0.001 (the “2014 Stock Award”).  The 2014 Stock Award, valued at $400,000, vests periodically over the period beginning November 15, 2014 through November 15, 2015, at 250,000 RSUs per vesting period.





On November 1, 2015, the Company entered into a new Employment Agreement with its then President (the “2015 Employment Agreement”). The Employment Agreement is for a term of one (1) year, and includes compensation in the amount of $36,000 per year, compensation for certain travel expenses, and grants a right to purchase 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at par, which vest quarterly beginning November 1, 2015, at 500,000 shares per vesting period through August 1, 2016 (the “2015 Stock Award”). In connection with the 2015 Stock Award, $160,000 has been recorded as deferred compensation, to be amortized over the next 9 months.





As of January 31, 2016 and January 31, 2015, the Company has awarded a total of 2,000,000 and 1,400,000 Restricted Stock Units, respectively. In connection with the Stock Awards, a total of $1,200,000 has been recorded as deferred compensation, of which $340,000 and $740,000 has been expensed during the fiscal year ended January 31, 2016 and the fiscal year ended January 31, 2015, respectively.  Upon the former President’s resignation as an officer and director, effective December 17, 2015, all unvested stock awards were immediately cancelled.





During fiscal 2016 the Company’s former President acquired a total of 1,250,000 shares of common stock as a result of the aforementioned agreements as follows:





On March 15, 2015, in accordance with his 2014 Employment Agreement, the Company issued 250,000 shares of restricted common stock, valued at $100,000, to its then President for cash in the amount of $250.

Effective December 17, 2015, Mr. Jeffery Taylor was appointed to serve as Chief Executive Officer of the Company and Mr. Don Lee Taylor was appointed to serve as Chief Financial Officer of the Company. On December 21, 2015 the Company entered into employment agreements with Mr. Jeffery Taylor and Mr. Don Lee Taylor for a period of 24 months, where after the contract may be renewed in one year terms at the election of both parties.  Jeffery Taylor shall receive an annual gross salary of $115,000 and Don Lee Taylor shall receive an annual gross salary of $105,000 payable in equal installments on the last day of each calendar month and which may be accrued until such time as the Company has sufficient cash flow to settle amounts payable.  Further under the terms of the respective agreements all inventions, innovations, improvements, know-how, plans, development, methods, designs, analyses, specifications, software, drawings, reports and all similar or related information (whether or not patentable or reduced to practice) which relate to any of the Company’s actual or proposed business activities and which are created, designed or conceived, developed or made by the Executive during the Executive’s past or future employment by the Company or any Affiliates, or any predecessor thereof (“Work Product”), belong to the Company, or its Affiliates, as applicable. During the year ended January 31, 2016, the Company accrued management fees in the amount of $9,583 to Mr. Jeffery Taylor and $8,750 to Mr. Don Lee Taylor. As of January 31, 2016, the Company had not made any cash payments regarding the fees, leaving a total of $18,333 on the balance sheet as related party accounts payable.





Director Independence





For purposes of determining director independence, the Company has applied the definitions set out in NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2).  The OTC Markets Pink Sheets on which shares of Common Stock are quoted does not have any director independence requirements.  The NASDAQ definition of “Independent Officer” means a person other than an Executive Officer or employee of the Company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the Company's Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.  According to the NASDAQ definition, neither Jeffery Taylor nor Don Lee Taylor is an independent director of the Company.





ITEM 14.
PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANTS FEES AND SERVICES





The aggregate fees billed or to be billed for the most recently completed fiscal years ended January 31, 2016 and 2015 for professional services rendered by the principal accountant for the audit of its annual financial statements and review of the financial statements included in its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for these fiscal periods were as follows:

The Company’s board of directors pre-approves all services provided by its independent auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by the board of directors either before or after the respective services were rendered.





The Company’s board of directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by its independent auditors and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining its independent auditors’ independence.
