The restatements are being made in accordance with ASC 250, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.” The disclosure provision of ASC 250 requires a company that corrects an error to disclose that its previously issued financial statements have been restated, a description of the nature of the error, the effect of the correction on each financial statement line item and any per share amount affected for each prior period presented, and the cumulative effect on retained earnings (deficit) in the statement of financial position as of the beginning of each period presented.

The restatement relates to unrecorded management fees due to RMS and payments made by RMS on behalf of the Company. The following is a description of the transactions underlying the restatements:
| 1. | The Company’s issued a $710,790 and a $150,000 convertible promissory note to RMS, on October 1, 2016 and December 31, 2016, respectively, for unpaid management fees under a contract with RMS. |
| 2. | RMS made payments and incurred obligations on behalf of the Company which were reimbursable to RMS and represented obligations of the Company. These payments and obligations, not previously recognized are as follows: |
| · | Four payments to consultants for services totaling $30,000 that should have been recognized in operating expenses |
| · | Three payments for accounts payable totaling $23,476 |
| · | Nine payments totaling $185,000 to property owners of Washoe Tribal Allotments in Douglas County, Nevada, representing partial payment of Property Farming Rights totaling $640,000 and covering 16 Acres at a rate of $40,000 per acre. The balance owing to the Washoe Tribal members of $455,000 should have been included in accounts payable |
| · | Three payments totaling $65,000 to the Family Tribal Allotments of the Winnemucca Tribe of Humbolt County, Nevada for cultivation working capital related to 320 acres of land that should have been included in accounts payable |
The convertible promissory notes shown in 1 above are convertible to the common shares of the Company at $0.001 a share within one-year or other mutually agreed upon price. These notes should have been recorded based on the maximum capped amount on the $860,790 face value of the promissory notes as per ASC 470-20-25, as additional paid-in capital with recognition of a like amount of prepaid interest discount offset against the note balance.
Recognition of the convertible promissory notes required the recording the amortization of the related discount of $177,698 for the three months ended December 31, 2016 as interest expense and recognition of the property license fees required the recording the related amortization of $1,052 from the date of the agreements.
The net result is an increase of General and Administrative expenses of $31,052, an increase of Depreciation and Amortization of $1,052, an increase of Interest Expense of $177,698 for a total increase in the Net Loss of $208,750. The total impact on the balance sheet was a $576,521 in Receivables, a $703,948 net increase in Property Farming Rights, a $451,605 net increase in Accounts Payable, a $177,698 net increase in Notes Payable, a $860,790 increase in Additional Paid-in Capital, a $208,750 increase in Accumulated Deficits, and a $874 increase in Cumulative exchange translation from the 10-K filed on April 17, 2017.
In addition to the restatement of financial information discussed above, the Statement of Cash Flows required reclassification of both years of 2016 and 2015 to present effect of exchange rate changes on cash on its own section. Furthermore, report No other changes have been made to the 10-K, and this Amendment has been updated to reflect events occurring subsequent to the filing of the 10-K in the Subsequent Events under Note 16.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
The following discussion of risk factors contains forward-looking statements. These risk factors may be important to understanding any statement in this Form 10-K or elsewhere. The following information should be read in conjunction with Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and the consolidated financial statements and related notes in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of this Form 10-K.
| 2 |
Because of the following factors, as well as other factors affecting the Company’s financial condition and operating results, past financial performance should not be considered to be a reliable indicator of future performance, and investors should not use historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods.
The Company is subject to laws and regulations worldwide, changes to which could hinder the Company’s medical cannabis research and increase the Company’s costs and individually or in the aggregate adversely affect the Company’s business.
The Company is subject to laws and regulations affecting its domestic and international operations in medical research and production of medical cannabis. These U.S. and foreign laws and regulations affect the Company’s activities including, but not limited to, areas of sales to only certain legalized regions, labor, advertising, digital content, product label, consumer protection, billing, e-commerce, promotions, quality of services, media, television, intellectual property ownership and infringement, tax, import and export requirements, foreign exchange controls and cash repatriation restrictions, environmental, health, and safety.
By way of example, laws and regulations related to cannabis in United States is listed under Schedule 1 of the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) as defined under the United States Controlled Substances Act even though there are 20 states have legalized medical marijuana and eight states legalized for recreational use.
Compliance with these laws, regulations and similar requirements may be onerous and expensive, and they may be inconsistent from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, further increasing the cost of compliance and doing business. Any such costs, which may rise in the future as a result of changes in these laws and regulations or in their interpretation could individually or in the aggregate make the Company’s products and services less attractive to the Company’s customers, delay the introduction of new products in one or more regions, or cause the Company to change or limit its business practices. The Company has implemented policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations, but there can be no assurance that the Company’s employees, contractors, or agents will not violate such laws and regulations or the Company’s policies and procedures.
Risk related to Liquidity and Capital Resources: Although our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, we must raise additional capital before September 30, 2017 to fund our operations in order to continue as a going concern.
Turner, Stone & Company, L.L.P., our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, has included an explanatory paragraph in their opinion that accompanies our audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016, indicating that our current liquidity position raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to improve our liquidity position we may not be able to continue as a going concern. The accompany consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result if we are unable to continue as a going concern and, therefore, be required to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities other than in the normal course of business which could cause investors to suffer the loss of all or a substantial portion of their investment.
We anticipate that our principal sources of liquidity will only be sufficient to fund our activities needs through September 30, 2017. In order to have sufficient cash to fund our operations beyond September 30, 2017, we will need to raise additional equity or debt capital by September 30, 2017 in order to continue as a going concern and we cannot provide any assurance that we will be successful in doing so.
Our stockholders are subject to significant dilution upon the occurrence of certain events which could result in a decrease in our stock price.
As of December 31, 2016, we had approximately 1.53 billion shares of our common stock reserved or designated for future issuance upon conversion of outstanding convertible promissory notes. Further, we may from time to time make an offer to our debtors or consultants to exchange their outstanding debts or services for shares of our common stock. Any future issuance of common shares will have a further dilutive effect on our existing stockholders and could result in a decrease in our stock prices.
Investment in new business strategies and acquisitions could disrupt the Company’s ongoing business and present risks not originally contemplated.
The Company has invested, and in the future may invest, in new business strategies or acquisitions. Such endeavors may involve significant risks and uncertainties, including distraction of management from current operations, greater than expected liabilities and expenses, inadequate return of capital, and unidentified issues not discovered in the Company’s due diligence. These new ventures are inherently risky and may not be successful.
The Company’s stock price is subject to volatility.
The Company’s stock continues to experience substantial price volatility. Additionally, the Company, the medical cannabis industry, and the stock market as a whole have experienced extreme stock price and volume fluctuations that have affected stock prices in ways that may have been unrelated to these companies’ operating performance.
| 3 |
The Company’s ability to raise additional capital to fund operations
The Company is required to raise additional funds to acquire research and growing facilities, and to cover cost of operations. We intend to do so through additional public or private offerings of debt or equity securities. There are no commitment or arrangements for other offerings in place, no guaranties that any such financings would be forthcoming or as to the terms of any such financings.
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
We currently lease office space at 19800 MacArthur Blvd., Suite 300, Irvine, California 92612 , on a month to month basis.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
As of March 11, 2017, there are not any material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to our business or those operating under our acquired trade names GGECO University, Cannabis Consulting or Equi-Pharm are a party or of which any of our properties is the subject.
In January 2016, the Company received threats of legal action by a former consultant. No subsequent legal action or proceedings have materialized against the Company and management is of the opinion that there is no merit in the action due to non-performance of services by the consultant.
Our management is not aware of any legal proceedings and/or inquiries contemplated by other any governmental authority against us.

General
The Company is committed to research and development of cannabis based medicines ("Products") and intends to pursue Independent New Drug certification, possibly under the Orphan Drug Act, for such treatments but faces two significant challenges in accomplishing this business objective, namely financing and government regulation.
The Company is undercapitalized, and will be reliant on outside financing from sales of securities or issuance of debt instruments. Management expects many traditional lenders will be reluctant to provide the Company with capital in light of its financial condition and the nature of its expected business; so that any financing activities will likely be expensive and result in dilution to stockholders of the Company. The Company can make no representation that financing for its business will be available, regardless of cost.
Furthermore, although cannabis has been used for medicinal purposes for over 5,000 years, there is a significant prejudice against development of smoked cannabis medical products amongst the medical and law enforcement communities. In spite of recent statements by the current administration that indicate a softening of these views, marijuana is still classified as a Class 1 controlled substance. The Company can provide no assurances that it can develop and market its intended product, or how long government approval, if obtained, will take.
Recent Developments
Cannabis Science has added several experts to its scientific advisor board and other offices to enable it to progress towards FDA trials and similar efforts in other countries with its three key drugs under development, namely CS-TATI-1 targeting both newly diagnosed and treatment-experienced patients with drug-resistant HIV strains, as well as those intolerant of currently available therapies, CS-S/BCC-1 targeting basal and squamous cell carcinomas, and a proprietary cannabis-based therapy for neurological conditions that was patented in 2013.
| 8 |
The Company established wholly owned subsidiaries in The Netherlands with an office in Haarlem, The Netherlands, to expand operations in Europe, including to enhance opportunities for studies and governmental approvals on an international basis.
The Company is laying a solid foundation for entrance into the FDA and other government regulatory agencies for developing medicines for cancer, autism, Influenza, PTSD and other ailments.
The Company's goal is the development of governmentally approved pharmaceuticals, including the aforementioned CS-TATI1, CS-S/BCC-1, and proprietary, patented neurological therapy currently under study or development. The Company faces not only the challenges of other business at an early stage of development, but special problems arising from the nature of its own business. Notwithstanding, stockholders and prospective stockholders should recognize that any investment in our Company is risky and speculative, and could result in a total loss.
Results of Operations
Limited Revenues
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 we generated license revenues of $443 and sales of $8,820 from the operation of Equi-Pharm compared to $0 in license revenue and $44,227 in educational and consulting revenues for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Our interest expense increased from $4,555 for the year ended December 31 2015 to $650,310 in 2016. This increase was due to $471,589 amortization of intrinsic interest on a two-year convertible promissory note originated on August 9, 2016 in the amount of $975,407 owing to Mr. Raymond C. Dabney, President and CEO of the Company and $177,698 amortization of intrinsic interest on a one year convertible promissory note originated on October 1, 2016 in the amount of $710,790 owing to Royalty Management Services Corp.
The loss on settlement of liabilities decreased from $5,625,076 for the year ended December 31, 2015 to $588,645 in 2016. This decrease was due to decreased settlement of liabilities through stock and resulting losses on the settlements.

The Company is currently not in good short-term financial standing. We anticipate that we may only generate limited amount of revenues in the near future and we will not have enough positive internal operating cash flow until we can generate substantial revenues, which may take the next year to fully realize. There is no assurance we will achieve profitable operations. We have historically financed our operations primarily by cash flows generated from the sale of our equity securities and through cash infusions from officers and outside investors in exchange for debt and/or common stock.
Business Development
Our business and product development will follow two parallel paths. We will create cannabis pharmaceuticals with and without psychoactive properties. Both of these lines will have numerous proven health benefits for treating autism, blood pressure, cancer and cancer side effects, along with other illnesses, including for general health maintenance.
We are positioned to pursue the development of phytocannabinoid-based pharmaceutical grade products. The endocannabinoid system normally regulates blood pressure through its capacity to dilate blood vessels and reduce adrenergic stimuli. Additionally, there is a developing body of evidence that shows both the tumor killing properties of endo- and phyto- cannabinoids, and their ability to inhibit metastasis in a variety of cancers.
The Company is working to navigate the regulatory framework for its phytocannabinoid science towards developing cannabis-based therapeutics that will holistically promote health by restoring biochemical balance. By adhering to underlying scientific principles, the Company will manipulate all-pervasive phytocannabinoid processes to target a variety of disparate illnesses.
Cannabis Science is also positioning to explore insights that indicate an intrinsic link between novel cancer and HIV technologies and the cannabinoid system; with the goal of demonstrating that our pharmaceuticals will enhance biochemical markers that are indicative of a successful HIV therapy based on recent paradigm breaking discoveries.
The Company is currently focused on FDA approval of its first medical cannabis product targeted for veterans. Many veterans are already using herbal cannabis to self-medicate to relieve the symptoms of PTSD. Consequently, there is a clear need for standardized, FDA approved, oral cannabis products which can, and should be, provided to veterans and others who can benefit from its use. Medical cannabis has far fewer and milder side effects than most currently prescribed pharmaceutical products do. We are working hard to have one or more products ready for FDA clinical trials as soon as possible.
On February 9, 2012, the Company signed a license agreement with Apothecary to produce several Cannabis Science Brand Formulations for the California medical cannabis market. As well, Apothecary will provide research and development facilities with full circle operations including a California laboratory facility for internal research and development, along with 16 unique genetic strains specifically generated and maintained by a cancer survivor who recognizes the importance of proper growth and breeding in addition to investing $250,000 in research and development in the first 24 months. Apothecary failed to meet several contract provisions including investing $250,000 in Research and Development, setting up a laboratory facility, and reporting and remitting license fees owing to the Company. On November 20, 2014, the Company signed an amendment to the license agreement. Pursuant to the amendment, the Company was to acquire all property, building, and equipment of Apothecary in exchange for 14,500,000 Rule 144 restricted stock with a fair market value of $971,500. The Company recorded an equivalent deposit for the year ended December 31, 2014 until the acquisition of assets closes, which was anticipated during fiscal 2015. The amount of $971,500 was written off in the third quarter of 2016 to Loss on Investment as Apothecary claimed that they have sold the shares and spent the proceeds on Research and Development and acquired a property with 21 acre of land and a residential building in California.
On February 9, 2012, the Company acquired GGECO University, Inc. (“GGECO”), an online video-based medical cannabis education system, offering courses dealing with medical cannabis law, the benefits of medical marijuana, cooking, horticulture, and bud tending. Following the university's name change to Cannabis Science University, the Company hopes to use this platform to educate the general public, patients, and even those who have already been involved in the medical cannabis industry on the medical benefits of cannabis, how it is grown, how to use it safely, and the many applications or ways to administer the medication. In consideration of this agreement, the Company issued 25,000,000 common shares to the principals of GGECO.

On November 2, 2015 the Company announced a significant collaborative drug development deal with IGXBio Inc., and its GenePro®, a DNA-based immunotherapeutic that recently received FDA IND approval to enter into human trials. The companies developed joint protocols that explore potential synergistic effects of their respective drug candidates, as well as potential new drug candidate opportunities. IGXBio has a drug called GenePro®, which is already registered with the FDA and has an IND number. This expedites the process to seek FDA approval in the future. GenePro® is designed to promote an anti-HIV immune response that facilitates virus control in HIV-infected subjects. There are more than 150 peer-reviewed publications that describe the effectiveness of GenePro®. The inflammatory response that is associated with HIV infection is present at even low levels of viral replication, and is a major causal factor for the morbidities and associated mortality of HIV infection. Low-grade inflammation frequently occurs despite clinically successful anti-retroviral therapy and is associated with increased incidence of heart disease, bone disease, and cancers.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Cannabis Science, Inc.
Irvine, California
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Cannabis Science, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), changes in stockholders’ equity/(deficit) and cash flows for the years 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 audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Cannabis Science, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the results of their consolidated operations and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the 2016 financial statements have been restated to correct a misstatement.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations since inception, has a working capital deficiency and will need to raise additional capital to fund its business operations and plans. Furthermore, there is no assurance that any capital raise will be sufficient to complete the Company’s business plans. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

The acquisition was completed on November 16, 2015 and the Company has formed a new wholly owned subsidiary called Equi-Pharm LLC. In the state of Tennessee and start the operation of distributing of existing and new line of products.
C. Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined.
D. Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Under ASC 260, "Earnings Per Share" ("EPS"), the Company provides for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic EPS includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income or loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings or losses of the entity. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, basic and diluted loss per share are the same since the calculation of diluted per share amounts would result in an anti-dilutive calculation.
E. Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.
F. Long-Lived Assets
Under ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment”, the Company is required to periodically evaluate the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used. ASC Topic 360 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost of disposal.
| F-7 |
G. Inventory
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, using the average cost method. Cost includes materials related to the purchase and production of inventories. We regularly review inventory quantities on hand, future purchase commitments with our suppliers, and the estimated utility of our inventory. If our review indicates a reduction in utility below carrying value, we reduce our inventory to a new cost basis through a charge to cost of revenue.
H. Fair Value Measurements
Under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, the Company discloses the estimated fair values of financial instruments. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for current assets and current liabilities qualifying as financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of fair value.
In accordance with the reporting requirements of ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, the Company calculates the fair value of its assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments under this standard and includes this additional information in the notes to the consolidated financial statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of those financial instruments (see Note 3). The estimated fair value of other current assets and current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments. None of these instruments are held for trading purposes.
I. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Under ASC Topic 350 “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other”, goodwill is not amortized to expense, but rather that it is assessed or tested for impairment at least annually. Impairment write-downs are charged to results of operations in the period in which the impairment is determined. The Company identified impairment on its outstanding goodwill from its most recent testing, which was performed as of December 31, 2016. If certain events occur which might indicate goodwill has been impaired, the goodwill is tested for impairment when such events occur. Other acquired intangible assets with finite lives, such as customer lists, are required to be amortized over the estimated lives. These intangibles are generally amortized using the straight line method over estimated useful lives of five years.
The Company tests the carrying value of goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets for impairment at least once a year and more frequently if an event or circumstance indicates the asset may be impaired. An impairment loss is recognized if the amount of the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less selling expenses or its value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows (cash generating units).
The Company is adopting ASU update number 2012-02—Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment whereby the Company will first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, we conclude that it is not more than likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, then we are not required to take further action. If the Company concludes otherwise, then we will determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset and perform the required quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value with the carrying amount.
The Company recorded $170,689 impairment loss on goodwill for the year ended December 31, 2016 and $0 for the year ended December 31, 2015.
J. Research and Development Expenses
Under ASC Topic 730 “Research and Development”, costs are expensed as incurred. These expenses include the costs of our proprietary R&D efforts, as well as costs incurred in connection with certain licensing arrangements. Before a compound receives regulatory approval, we record upfront and milestone payments made by us to third parties under licensing arrangements as expense. Upfront payments are recorded when incurred, and milestone payments are recorded when the specific milestone has been achieved. Once a compound receives regulatory approval, any milestone payments will be recorded as Identifiable intangible assets, less accumulated amortization and, unless the asset is determined to have an indefinite life, amortization of the payments will be on a straight-line basis over the remaining agreement term or the expected product life cycle, whichever is shorter. No identifiable intangible assets have been recorded as of December 31, 2016.
| F-8 |
K. Income Taxes
Under ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes”, the Company is required to account for its income taxes through the establishment of a deferred tax asset or liability for the recognition of future deductible or taxable amounts and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax expense or benefit is recognized as a result of timing differences between the recognition of assets and liabilities for book and tax purposes during the year.
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. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss, and tax credit carry forwards. A valuation allowance is established to reduce that deferred tax asset if it is "more likely than not" that the related tax benefits will not be realized.
Unfiled Federal Tax Returns
The Company estimates that the amount of penalties, if any, will not have a material effect on the results of operations, cash flows or financial position. No provisions have been made in the financial statements for such penalties, if any.
The Company is working with its accountants to prepare and file overdue federal tax returns for 2008 through 2016, which are anticipated to be completed and filed in fiscal 2017.
L. Marketable Securities
Under ASC Topic 210; Regulation S-X “Marketable Securities”, the Company is required to measure all marketable securities at their carrying value while recognizing unrealized gains and losses as of the reporting date.
M. Stock-Based Compensation
Under ASC Topic 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation”, the Company is required to measure all employee share-based payments, including grants of employee stock options, using a fair-value-based method and the recording of such expense in the statements of operations.
N. Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized at the time the educational materials or online seminars are provided and billed to the customer and substantially all related obligations of the Company have been performed. License fees and joint-venture profit sharing when evidenced by executed agreements, and other fees are recognized when earned and collection is reasonably assured.
O. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
During the year ended December 31, 2016 and through April 13, 2017, there were several new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. Management does not believe the adoption of any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
2. GOING CONCERN
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate the continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company reported an accumulated deficit of $138,137,771 and had a stockholders’ deficit of $1,786,836 at December 31, 2016.
In view of the matters described, there is substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern without a significant infusion of capital. At December 31, 2016, the Company had insufficient operating revenues and cash flow to meet its financial obligations. There can be no assurance that management will be successful in implementing its plans. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
| F-9 |
We anticipate that we will have to raise additional capital to fund operations over the next 12 months. To the extent that we are required to raise additional funds to acquire research and growing facilities, and to cover costs of operations, we intend to do so through additional public or private offerings of debt or equity securities. There are no commitment or arrangements for other offerings in place, no guaranties that any such financings would be forthcoming, or as to the terms of any such financings.
Any future financing may involve substantial dilution to existing investors. We had been relying on our common stock to pay third parties for services which has resulted in substantial dilution to existing investors.
3. RESTATEMENT AND RECLASSIFICATION
Restatement of Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2016
The Company is restating its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 (the “2016 Financial Statements”) to correct various account balances, and the restatement corrects financial statement errors that arose from the Company’s oversight to account for payments made by Royalty Management Services Corp.

The restatement relates to unrecorded management fees due to RMS and payments made by RMS on behalf of the Company. The following is a description of the transactions underlying the restatements:
| 1. | The Company’s issued a $710,790 and a $150,000 convertible promissory note to RMS, on October 1, 2016 and December 31, 2016, respectively, for unpaid management fees under a contract with RMS. |
| 2. | RMS made payments and incurred obligations on behalf of the Company which were reimbursable to RMS and represented obligations of the Company. These payments and obligations, not previously recognized are as follows: |
| · | Four payments to consultants for services totaling $30,000 that should have been recognized in operating expenses |
| · | Three payments for accounts payable totaling $23,476 |
| · | Nine payments totaling $185,000 to property owners of Washoe Tribal Allotments in Douglas County, Nevada, representing partial payment of Property Farming Rights totaling $640,000 and covering 16 Acres at a rate of $40,000 per acre. The balance owing to the Washoe Tribal members of $455,000 should have been included in accounts payable |
| · | Three payments totaling $65,000 to the Family Tribal Allotments of the Winnemucca Tribe of Humbolt County, Nevada for cultivation working capital related to 320 acres of land that should have been included in accounts payable |
The convertible promissory notes shown in 1 above are convertible to the common shares of the Company at $0.001 a share within one-year or other mutually agreed upon price. These notes should have been recorded based on the maximum capped amount on the $860,790 face value of the promissory notes as per ASC 470-20-25, as additional paid-in capital with recognition of a like amount of prepaid interest discount offset against the note balance.
Recognition of the convertible promissory notes required the recording the amortization of the related discount of $177,698 for the three months ended December 31, 2016 as interest expense and recognition of the property license fees required the recording the related amortization of $1,052 from the date of the agreements.
The net result is an increase of General and Administrative expenses of $31,052, an increase of Depreciation and Amortization of $1,052, an increase of Interest Expense of $177,698 for a total increase in the Net Loss of $208,750. The total impact on the balance sheet was a $576,521 in Receivables, a $703,948 net increase in Property Farming Rights, a $451,605 net increase in Accounts Payable, a $177,698 net increase in Notes Payable, a $860,790 increase in Additional Paid-in Capital, a $208,750 increase in Accumulated Deficits, and a $874 increase in Cumulative exchange translation from the 10-K filed on April 17, 2017.
In addition to the restatement of financial information discussed above, the Statement of Cash Flows required reclassification of both years of 2016 and 2015 to present effect of exchange rate changes on cash on its own section.

4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND DISCLOSURES
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, establishes a framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 820 are described as follows:
Level 1
Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities that the Company can access at the measurement date.
Level 2
Inputs to the valuation methodology are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3
Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The asset or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for the Company’s liabilities measured at fair value. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at December 31, 2016.
Equity method investment: Trading securities valued at the closing price of Endocan Corporation shares held by the Company at year end.
The preceding methods described may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, although the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date. The following tables set forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s liabilities at fair value as of December 31, 2016 and 2015.

7. INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes are reported using the liability method. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. Current year and accumulated deferred tax benefit at the effective Federal income tax rate of 34% is $30,061,431 (in addition to the pre-acquisition annual limitation carry-forward discussed in the following paragraph), and a valuation allowance has been set up for the full amount because of the unlikelihood that the accumulated deferred tax benefit will be realized in the future.
At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company had available federal and state net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards amounting to approximately $88,100,000 and $78,500,000, respectively, that are available to offset future federal and state taxable income and that expire in various periods through 2035 for federal tax purposes and 2020 for state tax purposes. No benefit has been recorded for the loss carryforwards, and utilization in future years may be limited under Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code if significant ownership changes have occurred or from future tax legislation changes.
The following table sets forth the significant components of the net deferred tax assets for operations in the US as of December 31, 2016 and 2015.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
There were no disagreements with accountants on accounting and financial disclosure during the relevant period.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of 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, 2016. This evaluation was accomplished under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer / principal executive officer, and chief financial officer / principal financial officer who concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to ensure that all material information required to be filed in the annual report on Form 10-K has been made known to them.
Disclosure, controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act") is accumulated and communicated to the issuer's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based upon an evaluation conducted for the year ended December 31, 2016, our Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer as of December 31, 2016, and as of the date of this Report, has concluded that as of the end of the periods covered by this report, we have identified the following material weakness of our internal controls:
Reliance upon independent financial reporting consultants for review of critical accounting areas and disclosures and material non-standard transactions.
Failure of management to provide timely information for financial reporting resulting in late filings.
Lack of sufficient accounting staff which results in a lack of segregation of duties necessary for a good system of internal control.
The Company has increased services and related staffing through its business and financial consulting contractor to remedy existing internal control deficiencies.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Our internal control system was 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 in the United States of America. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate due to change in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting using the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework at December 31, 2016. Based on its evaluation, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2016, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective because of limited staff and a need for a full-time chief financial officer. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control 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.
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 the attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
We have not yet made any changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report on Form 10-K that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

| Amendment Description | EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Amendment No. 1 of Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2016, amends in its entirety the Annual Report on Form 10-K/A that was originally filed on April 17, 2017, to reflect a restatement of the Company's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 (the "2016 Financial Statements"). The restatement corrects financial statement errors that arouse from the Company's oversight to account for payments made by Royalty Management Services Corp. ("RMS") on its behalf. The errors occurred during the last quarter of 2016 and first four months of 2017 and their effect is summarized below.
The restatements are being made in accordance with ASC 250, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.” The disclosure provision of ASC 250 requires a company that corrects an error to disclose that its previously issued financial statements have been restated, a description of the nature of the error, the effect of the correction on each financial statement line item and any per share amount affected for each prior period presented, and the cumulative effect on retained earnings (deficit) in the statement of financial position as of the beginning of each period presented.
The effects of the adjustments on the Company’s previously issued 2016 Financial Statements are summarized as follows:
Selected Consolidated Balance Sheets Information as of December 31, 2016
Selected Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Selected Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended December 31, 2016
The restatement relates to unrecorded management fees due to RMS and payments made by RMS on behalf of the Company. The following is a description of the transactions underlying the restatements:
The convertible promissory notes shown in 1 above are convertible to the common shares of the Company at $0.001 a share within one-year or other mutually agreed upon price. These notes should have been recorded based on the maximum capped amount on the $860,790 face value of the promissory notes as per ASC 470-20-25, as additional paid-in capital with recognition of a like amount of prepaid interest discount offset against the note balance.
Recognition of the convertible promissory notes required the recording the amortization of the related discount of $177,698 for the three months ended December 31, 2016 as interest expense and recognition of the property license fees required the recording the related amortization of $1,052 from the date of the agreements.
The net result is an increase of General and Administrative expenses of $31,052, an increase of Depreciation and Amortization of $1,052, an increase of Interest Expense of $177,698 for a total increase in the Net Loss of $208,750. The total impact on the balance sheet was a $576,521 in Receivables, a $703,948 net increase in Property Farming Rights, a $451,605 net increase in Accounts Payable, a $177,698 net increase in Notes Payable, a $860,790 increase in Additional Paid-in Capital, a $208,750 increase in Accumulated Deficits, and a $874 increase in Cumulative exchange translation from the 10-K filed on April 17, 2017.
In addition to the restatement of financial information discussed above, the Statement of Cash Flows required reclassification of both years of 2016 and 2015 to present effect of exchange rate changes on cash on its own section. Furthermore, report No other changes have been made to the 10-K, and this Amendment has been updated to reflect events occurring subsequent to the filing of the 10-K in the Subsequent Events under Note 16. |

| Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Organization and General Description of Business

In sum, we are dedicated to the creation of cannabis-based medicines, both with and without psychoactive properties, to treat disease and the symptoms of disease, as well as for general health maintenance. The Company formed two operating subsidiaries Cannabis Science BV and Cannabis Science International Holding BV in The Netherlands on May 10 th and May 6 th, 2013, respectively, to pursue business opportunities in Europe and worldwide. There are currently minimal operations in the subsidiaries. Agreements and business disclosures are in process.
On November 15, 2013, the Company submitted a patent application N2010968 in Europe entitled "Composition for the Treatment of Neurobehavioral Disorders." The subject of the patent is development of cannabinoid-based formulations to treat a variety of neurobehavioral disorders, such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), anxiety, and sleep disorders.
B. Basis of Presentation
These consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31. The operating results of GGECO University, Inc. (“GGECO”), acquired on February 9, 2012, for the period February 10, 2012 through December 31, 2013 were consolidated with the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. The s-type corporation of GGECO was dissolved in 2012 and all operations combined into the Company. An independent valuation firm determined the intangibles acquired in GGECO to be $192,119 consisting of $150,000 for educational materials, $20,000 for the trade name, and $22,119 for the workforce. The total purchase price of $450,132, including acquired net liabilities, audit and valuation costs was recorded. Full impairment of GGECO was recognized and all goodwill was written off at December 31, 2014.
The operating results of Cannabis Consulting, Inc. (“CCI”), acquired on March 21, 2012, for the period March 21, 2012 through December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013 were consolidated with the consolidated financial statements of the Company. The s-type corporation of CCI was dissolved in 2012 and all operations combined into the Company’s. The Company has allocated $125,000 of the purchase price to intangibles based on an internal valuation in addition to $22,000 of goodwill. Full impairment of CCI was recognized and all goodwill was written off at December 31, 2014.
In 2012, the Company formed Cannabis Science Europe GmbH (“CSE”) to operate joint-venture operations with Dupetit Natural Products Ltd. The JV asset was sold to Endocan Corporation (formerly X-Change Corporation) on December 12, 2012. No operations had commenced at the time of sale of the JV asset. For the year ended December 31, 2013, CSE had minimal expenditures in the normal course of winding up the entity subsequent to the disposal of the JV asset. The Company has reignited the CSE by appointing Mr. Alfredo Dupetit on September 19 2015 as president and chief executive officer of CSE based on the German government proposing changes in the Drug Law which will relax the strict measures that regulate the consumption of medical cannabis and development of cannabis products for medicinal uses.
On May 6, 2013, the Company formed Cannabis Science International Holdings B.V. and on May 10, 2013, the Company formed Cannabis Science B.V. for the purpose of wholly-owned operating subsidiaries for the Company’s European and world-wide operations.

As consideration for acquiring the additional 30.1% equity, the Company issued additional shares to the principals and shareholders of MGT.
On May 6, 2015 the Company announced the Assets acquisition of Equi-Pharm LLC, a USA manufacturer and distributor of specialty horse and pet grooming and topical applications. The acquisition incorporates an extensive expansion plan for Equi-Pharm including "Large Animal" such as horses, cattle, sheep and the like and "Small Animal" or "Pets" include cats, dogs, pet snakes and the like for medical and cosmetic products. As consideration for acquiring the Assets, which consist of Inventory, Trademark and brand names, and goodwill, the Company issued ten million (10,000,000) shares to the shareholders of Equi-Pharm and agreed to change its company name. The acquisition was completed on November 16, 2015 and the Company has formed a new wholly owned subsidiary called Equi-Pharm LLC. In the state of Tennessee and start the operation of distributing of existing and new line of products.
C. Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined.
D. Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Under ASC 260, "Earnings Per Share" ("EPS"), the Company provides for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic EPS includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income or loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings or losses of the entity. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, basic and diluted loss per share are the same since the calculation of diluted per share amounts would result in an anti-dilutive calculation.
E. Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.
F. Long-Lived Assets
Under ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment”, the Company is required to periodically evaluate the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used. ASC Topic 360 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost of disposal.
G. Inventory
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, using the average cost method. Cost includes materials related to the purchase and production of inventories. We regularly review inventory quantities on hand, future purchase commitments with our suppliers, and the estimated utility of our inventory. If our review indicates a reduction in utility below carrying value, we reduce our inventory to a new cost basis through a charge to cost of revenue.
H. Fair Value Measurements
Under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, the Company discloses the estimated fair values of financial instruments. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for current assets and current liabilities qualifying as financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of fair value.
In accordance with the reporting requirements of ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, the Company calculates the fair value of its assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments under this standard and includes this additional information in the notes to the consolidated financial statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of those financial instruments (see Note 3). The estimated fair value of other current assets and current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments. None of these instruments are held for trading purposes.
I. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Under ASC Topic 350 “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other”, goodwill is not amortized to expense, but rather that it is assessed or tested for impairment at least annually. Impairment write-downs are charged to results of operations in the period in which the impairment is determined. The Company identified impairment on its outstanding goodwill from its most recent testing, which was performed as of December 31, 2016. If certain events occur which might indicate goodwill has been impaired, the goodwill is tested for impairment when such events occur. Other acquired intangible assets with finite lives, such as customer lists, are required to be amortized over the estimated lives. These intangibles are generally amortized using the straight line method over estimated useful lives of five years.
The Company tests the carrying value of goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets for impairment at least once a year and more frequently if an event or circumstance indicates the asset may be impaired. An impairment loss is recognized if the amount of the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less selling expenses or its value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows (cash generating units).
The Company is adopting ASU update number 2012-02—Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment whereby the Company will first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, we conclude that it is not more than likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, then we are not required to take further action. If the Company concludes otherwise, then we will determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset and perform the required quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value with the carrying amount.
The Company recorded $170,689 impairment loss on goodwill for the year ended December 31, 2016 and $0 for the year ended December 31, 2015.
J. Research and Development Expenses
Under ASC Topic 730 “Research and Development”, costs are expensed as incurred. These expenses include the costs of our proprietary R&D efforts, as well as costs incurred in connection with certain licensing arrangements. Before a compound receives regulatory approval, we record upfront and milestone payments made by us to third parties under licensing arrangements as expense. Upfront payments are recorded when incurred, and milestone payments are recorded when the specific milestone has been achieved. Once a compound receives regulatory approval, any milestone payments will be recorded as Identifiable intangible assets, less accumulated amortization and, unless the asset is determined to have an indefinite life, amortization of the payments will be on a straight-line basis over the remaining agreement term or the expected product life cycle, whichever is shorter. No identifiable intangible assets have been recorded as of December 31, 2016.
K. Income Taxes
Under ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes”, the Company is required to account for its income taxes through the establishment of a deferred tax asset or liability for the recognition of future deductible or taxable amounts and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax expense or benefit is recognized as a result of timing differences between the recognition of assets and liabilities for book and tax purposes during the year.
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. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss, and tax credit carry forwards. A valuation allowance is established to reduce that deferred tax asset if it is "more likely than not" that the related tax benefits will not be realized.
Unfiled Federal Tax Returns
The Company estimates that the amount of penalties, if any, will not have a material effect on the results of operations, cash flows or financial position. No provisions have been made in the financial statements for such penalties, if any. The Company is working with its accountants to prepare and file overdue federal tax returns for 2008 through 2016, which are anticipated to be completed and filed in fiscal 2017.
L. Marketable Securities
Under ASC Topic 210; Regulation S-X “Marketable Securities”, the Company is required to measure all marketable securities at their carrying value while recognizing unrealized gains and losses as of the reporting date.
M. Stock-Based Compensation
Under ASC Topic 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation”, the Company is required to measure all employee share-based payments, including grants of employee stock options, using a fair-value-based method and the recording of such expense in the statements of operations.
N. Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized at the time the educational materials or online seminars are provided and billed to the customer and substantially all related obligations of the Company have been performed. License fees and joint-venture profit sharing when evidenced by executed agreements, and other fees are recognized when earned and collection is reasonably assured.
O. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
During the year ended December 31, 2016 and through April 13, 2017, there were several new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. Management does not believe the adoption of any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. |

Dec. 31, 2016 | |
| Going Concern | |
| Going Concern | 2. GOING CONCERN
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate the continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company reported an accumulated deficit of $138,137,771 and had a stockholders’ deficit of $1,786,836 at December 31, 2016.
In view of the matters described, there is substantial doubt as to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern without a significant infusion of capital. At December 31, 2016, the Company had insufficient operating revenues and cash flow to meet its financial obligations. There can be no assurance that management will be successful in implementing its plans. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
We anticipate that we will have to raise additional capital to fund operations over the next 12 months. To the extent that we are required to raise additional funds to acquire research and growing facilities, and to cover costs of operations, we intend to do so through additional public or private offerings of debt or equity securities. There are no commitment or arrangements for other offerings in place, no guaranties that any such financings would be forthcoming, or as to the terms of any such financings.
Any future financing may involve substantial dilution to existing investors. We had been relying on our common stock to pay third parties for services which has resulted in substantial dilution to existing investors. |

Selected Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the year ended December 31, 2016
The restatement relates to unrecorded management fees due to RMS and payments made by RMS on behalf of the Company. The following is a description of the transactions underlying the restatements:
The convertible promissory notes shown in 1 above are convertible to the common shares of the Company at $0.001 a share within one-year or other mutually agreed upon price. These notes should have been recorded based on the maximum capped amount on the $860,790 face value of the promissory notes as per ASC 470-20-25, as additional paid-in capital with recognition of a like amount of prepaid interest discount offset against the note balance.
Recognition of the convertible promissory notes required the recording the amortization of the related discount of $177,698 for the three months ended December 31, 2016 as interest expense and recognition of the property license fees required the recording the related amortization of $1,052 from the date of the agreements.
The net result is an increase of General and Administrative expenses of $31,052, an increase of Depreciation and Amortization of $1,052, an increase of Interest Expense of $177,698 for a total increase in the Net Loss of $208,750.

| Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures | 4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND DISCLOSURES
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, establishes a framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC Topic 820 are described as follows:
Level 1
Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities that the Company can access at the measurement date.
Level 2
Inputs to the valuation methodology are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3
Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The asset or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for the Company’s liabilities measured at fair value. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at December 31, 2016.
Equity method investments: Trading securities valued at the closing price of Endocan Corporation shares held by the Company at year end.
The preceding methods described may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, although the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date. The following tables set forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s liabilities at fair value as of December 31, 2016 and 2015.

| Income Taxes | 7. INCOME TAXES
Deferred income taxes are reported using the liability method. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. Current year and accumulated deferred tax benefit at the effective Federal income tax rate of 34% is $30,061,431 (in addition to the pre-acquisition annual limitation carry-forward discussed in the following paragraph), and a valuation allowance has been set up for the full amount because of the unlikelihood that the accumulated deferred tax benefit will be realized in the future.
At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company had available federal and state net operating loss (NOL) carryforwards amounting to approximately $88,100,000 and $78,500,000, respectively, that are available to offset future federal and state taxable income and that expire in various periods through 2035 for federal tax purposes and 2020 for state tax purposes. No benefit has been recorded for the loss carryforwards, and utilization in future years may be limited under Sections 382 and 383 of the Internal Revenue Code if significant ownership changes have occurred or from future tax legislation changes.
The following table sets forth the significant components of the net deferred tax assets for operations in the US as of December 31, 2016 and 2015.
A reconciliation of income tax expense at the statutory federal rate of 34% to income tax expense at the Company's effective tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 is as follows:

| Use of Estimates | C. Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined. |
| Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share | D. Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Under ASC 260, "Earnings Per Share" ("EPS"), the Company provides for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic EPS includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income or loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings or losses of the entity. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, basic and diluted loss per share are the same since the calculation of diluted per share amounts would result in an anti-dilutive calculation. |
| Cash and Cash Equivalents | E. Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. |
| Long-Lived Assets | F. Long-Lived Assets
Under ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant, and Equipment”, the Company is required to periodically evaluate the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used. ASC Topic 360 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost of disposal. |
| Inventory | G. Inventory
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, using the average cost method. Cost includes materials related to the purchase and production of inventories. We regularly review inventory quantities on hand, future purchase commitments with our suppliers, and the estimated utility of our inventory. If our review indicates a reduction in utility below carrying value, we reduce our inventory to a new cost basis through a charge to cost of revenue. |
| Fair Value Measurements | H. Fair Value Measurements
Under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, the Company discloses the estimated fair values of financial instruments. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for current assets and current liabilities qualifying as financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of fair value.
In accordance with the reporting requirements of ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments, the Company calculates the fair value of its assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments under this standard and includes this additional information in the notes to the consolidated financial statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of those financial instruments (see Note 3). The estimated fair value of other current assets and current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments. None of these instruments are held for trading purposes. |
| Goodwill and Intangible Assets | I. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Under ASC Topic 350 “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other”, goodwill is not amortized to expense, but rather that it is assessed or tested for impairment at least annually. Impairment write-downs are charged to results of operations in the period in which the impairment is determined. The Company identified impairment on its outstanding goodwill from its most recent testing, which was performed as of December 31, 2016. If certain events occur which might indicate goodwill has been impaired, the goodwill is tested for impairment when such events occur. Other acquired intangible assets with finite lives, such as customer lists, are required to be amortized over the estimated lives. These intangibles are generally amortized using the straight line method over estimated useful lives of five years.
The Company tests the carrying value of goodwill and indefinite life intangible assets for impairment at least once a year and more frequently if an event or circumstance indicates the asset may be impaired. An impairment loss is recognized if the amount of the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less selling expenses or its value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows (cash generating units).
The Company is adopting ASU update number 2012-02—Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment whereby the Company will first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If, after assessing the totality of events and circumstances, we conclude that it is not more than likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired, then we are not required to take further action. If the Company concludes otherwise, then we will determine the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible asset and perform the required quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value with the carrying amount.
The Company recorded $170,689 impairment loss on goodwill for the year ended December 31, 2016 and $0 for the year ended December 31, 2015. |
| Research and Development Expenses | J. Research and Development Expenses
Under ASC Topic 730 “Research and Development”, costs are expensed as incurred. These expenses include the costs of our proprietary R&D efforts, as well as costs incurred in connection with certain licensing arrangements. Before a compound receives regulatory approval, we record upfront and milestone payments made by us to third parties under licensing arrangements as expense. Upfront payments are recorded when incurred, and milestone payments are recorded when the specific milestone has been achieved. Once a compound receives regulatory approval, any milestone payments will be recorded as Identifiable intangible assets, less accumulated amortization and, unless the asset is determined to have an indefinite life, amortization of the payments will be on a straight-line basis over the remaining agreement term or the expected product life cycle, whichever is shorter. No identifiable intangible assets have been recorded as of December 31, 2016. |
| Income Taxes | K. Income Taxes
Under ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes”, the Company is required to account for its income taxes through the establishment of a deferred tax asset or liability for the recognition of future deductible or taxable amounts and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax expense or benefit is recognized as a result of timing differences between the recognition of assets and liabilities for book and tax purposes during the year.
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. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss, and tax credit carry forwards. A valuation allowance is established to reduce that deferred tax asset if it is "more likely than not" that the related tax benefits will not be realized.
Unfiled Federal Tax Returns
The Company estimates that the amount of penalties, if any, will not have a material effect on the results of operations, cash flows or financial position. No provisions have been made in the financial statements for such penalties, if any. The Company is working with its accountants to prepare and file overdue federal tax returns for 2008 through 2016, which are anticipated to be completed and filed in fiscal 2017. |
| Marketable Securities | L. Marketable Securities
Under ASC Topic 210; Regulation S-X “Marketable Securities”, the Company is required to measure all marketable securities at their carrying value while recognizing unrealized gains and losses as of the reporting date. |
| Stock-Based Compensation | M. Stock-Based Compensation
Under ASC Topic 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation”, the Company is required to measure all employee share-based payments, including grants of employee stock options, using a fair-value-based method and the recording of such expense in the statements of operations. |
| Revenue Recognition | N. Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized at the time the educational materials or online seminars are provided and billed to the customer and substantially all related obligations of the Company have been performed. License fees and joint-venture profit sharing when evidenced by executed agreements, and other fees are recognized when earned and collection is reasonably assured. |
| Recent Accounting Pronouncements | O. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
During the year ended December 31, 2016 and through April 13, 2017, there were several new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. Management does not believe the adoption of any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements. |
