NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS

PharmaCyte Biotech, Inc. (“Company”) is a clinical stage biotechnology company focused on developing and preparing to commercialize cellular therapies for cancer and diabetes based upon a proprietary cellulose-based live cell encapsulation technology known as “Cell-in-a-Box^®.” The Company intends to use the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology as a platform upon which treatments for several types of cancer and diabetes will be developed.

The Company is developing therapies for solid tumor cancers involving the encapsulation of live cells placed in the body to enable the activation of cancer-killing drugs at the source of the cancer. The Company is also developing a therapy for Type 1 diabetes and insulin-dependent Type 2 diabetes based upon the encapsulation, using the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology, of a human cell line genetically engineered to produce, store and secrete insulin at levels in proportion to the levels of blood sugar in the human body. The Company is also working on an alternative route to bring a biological treatment for diabetes into the clinic. The Company is exploring the possibility of encapsulating human insulin-producing islet cells or stem cells and transplanting them into a diabetic patient. In addition, the Company is examining ways to exploit the benefits of the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology to develop therapies for cancer based upon the constituents of the Cannabis plant, known as “Cannabinoids.”

Cancer Therapy

Targeted Chemotherapy

The Company is using the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology to develop a therapy for solid cancerous tumors through a form of targeted chemotherapy. For pancreatic cancer, the Company is encapsulating genetically engineered live human cells that produce an enzyme designed to convert the prodrug ifosfamide into its cancer-killing form. The capsules containing these cells will be implanted in a patient in the blood supply as near as possible to the pancreas tumor; these encapsulated cells will form the target for the cancer prodrug. The cancer prodrug ifosfamide will then be given intravenously at one-third the normal dose. In this way, it is believed that the ifosfamide will be converted at the site of the tumor instead of in the liver where it is normally converted. The Company believes placement of the Cell-in-a-Box^® capsules near the tumor enables the production of optimal concentrations of the “cancer-killing” form of ifosfamide at the site of the tumor. The cancer-killing metabolite of ifosfamide has a short half-life, which the Company believes will result in little to no collateral damage to other organs in the body.

Pancreatic Cancer Therapy

A critical unmet medical need exists for patients with locally advanced, inoperable non-metastatic pancreatic cancer (“LAPC”) whose pancreas tumors no longer respond after 4-6 months of treatment with either Abraxane^® plus gemcitabine or the 4-drug combination known as FOLFIRINOX (both combinations are the current standards of care). These patients have no effective treatment alternative once their tumors no longer respond to these therapies. Two of the previously used treatments for such patients are 5-fluorouiracil (“5-FU”) or capecitabine (a prodrug of 5-FU) plus radiation (chemoradiation therapy). Both treatments are only marginally effective in treating the tumor and result in serious side effects. More recently, radiation treatment alone is being used at some cancer centers in the U.S. The Company is developing a therapy comprised of Cell-in-a-Box^® encapsulated live cells implanted near the pancreas tumor followed treatment with low doses of the cancer prodrug ifosfamide. The Company believes that its treatment can serve as a “consolidation therapy” with the current standards of care for patients with LAPC and thus address this critical unmet medical need.

Subject to FDA approval, the Company plans to commence a clinical trial involving patients with LAPC to test this hypothesis. The trial will take place in the United States (“U.S.”) with possible study sites in Europe.

5

Malignant Ascites Fluid Therapy

The Company is also developing a therapy to delay the production and accumulation of malignant ascites fluid that results from many types of abdominal tumors. Malignant ascites fluid is secreted by abdominal tumors into the abdomen after the tumors have reached a certain stage of growth. This fluid contains cancer cells that can seed and form new tumors throughout the abdomen. This fluid accumulates in the abdominal cavity, causing swelling of the abdomen, severe breathing difficulties and extreme pain.

Malignant ascites fluid must be removed by paracentesis on a periodic basis. This procedure is painful and costly. There is no therapy that prevents or delays the production and accumulation of malignant ascites fluid. The Company has been involved in a series of preclinical studies conducted by Translational Drug Development (“TD2”) to determine if the combination of Cell-in-a-Box^® encapsulated cells plus ifosfamide can delay the production and accumulation of malignant ascites fluid. We plan to conduct another preclinical study in Germany to determine if our conclusions from the TD2 studies are valid. If the preclinical studies are deemed successful and the Company receives approval to do so from the FDA, the Company plans to conduct a clinical trial in the U. S. It also plans to have additional study sites in Europe if the Company receive approval to do so from the EMA.

Diabetes Therapy

Bio-Artificial Pancreas for Diabetes

The Company plans to develop a therapy for Type 1 diabetes and insulin-dependent Type 2 diabetes. The Company is attempting to develop a therapy that involves encapsulation of human liver cells that have been genetically engineered to produce, store insulin and release insulin on demand at levels in proportion to the levels of blood sugar (glucose) in the human body. The Company is also exploring the possibility of encapsulating human-insulin producing cells (beta islet cells) and/or insulin-producing stem cells. All three types of cells will be encapsulated using the Cell-in-a-Box^® encapsulation technology. After appropriate animal testing has been successfully completed, encapsulated insulin-producing cells will then be transplanted into diabetic patients. The goal for these approaches is to develop a bio-artificial pancreas for purposes of insulin production for diabetics who are insulin dependent.

Cannabis Therapy

Cannabinoids

The Company plans to use Cannabinoids (chemical constituents of the Cannabis plant) to develop therapies for cancer, with the initial target being brain cancer. The Company is focusing on developing specific therapies based on carefully chosen molecules rather than using complex Cannabis extracts. Targeted cannabinoid-based chemotherapy utilizing the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology offers a “green” approach to treating solid-tumor malignancies. Here, the methodology of placing a target in proximity to the tumor so that a cancer prodrug can be activated there mimics the Company’s efforts with LAPC except that in this case, the cancer prodrug will be Cannabinoid-derived.

To further its Cannabis therapy development plans, the Company entered a Research Agreement with the University of Northern Colorado. The initial goal of the ongoing research was to develop methods for the identification, separation and quantification of constituents of Cannabis (some of which are prodrugs) that may be used in combination with the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology to treat cancer; this has been accomplished. Subsequent studies have been undertaken to identify the appropriate cell type that can convert the selected Cannabinoid prodrugs into metabolites with anticancer activity. Once identified, the genetically modified cells that will produce the appropriate enzyme to convert that prodrug will be encapsulated using the Company’s Cell-in-a-Box^® technology. The encapsulated cells and Cannabinoid prodrugs identified by these studies will then be combined and used for future studies to evaluate their anticancer effectiveness.

Company Background and Material Agreements

The Company is a Nevada corporation incorporated in 1996. In 2013, the Company restructured its operations to focus on biotechnology. The restructuring resulted in the Company focusing all its efforts upon the development of a novel, effective and safe way to treat various types of cancer and diabetes. On January 6, 2015, the Company changed its name from Nuvilex, Inc. to PharmaCyte Biotech, Inc. to reflect the nature of its business.

In 2011, the Company entered an Asset Purchase Agreement with SG Austria Private Limited (“SG Austria APA”) to purchase 100% of the assets and liabilities of SG Austria Private Limited (“SG Austria”). Austrianova Singapore Pte. Ltd. (“Austrianova”) and Bio Blue Bird AG (“Bio Blue Bird”), then wholly-owned subsidiaries of SG Austria, were to become wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company on the condition that the Company pay SG Austria $2.5 million and 100,000,000 shares of the common stock of the Company’s common stock. The Company was to receive 100,000 shares of common stock of Austrianova and nine bearer shares of Bio Blue Bird representing 100% of the ownership of Bio Blue Bird.

Through two addenda to the SG Austria APA, the closing date of the SG Austria APA was extended twice by agreement between the parties.

In June 2013, the Company and SG Austria entered a Third Addendum to the SG Austria APA (“Third Addendum”). The Third Addendum changed materially the transaction contemplated by the SG Austria APA. Under the Third Addendum, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interests in Bio Blue Bird and received a 14.5% equity interest in SG Austria. In addition, the Company received nine bearer shares of Bio Blue Bird to reflect its 100% ownership of Bio Blue Bird. The Company paid: (i) $500,000 to retire all outstanding debt of Bio Blue Bird; and (ii) $1.0 million to SG Austria. The Company also paid SG Austria $1,572,193 in exchange for the 14.5% equity interest in SG Austria. The Third Addendum required SG Austria to return the 100,000,000 shares of common stock held by SG Austria and for the Company to return the 100,000 shares of common stock of Austrianova the Company held.

Effective as of the same date of the Third Addendum, the parties entered the Clarification Agreement to the Third Addendum (“Clarification Agreement”) to clarify and include certain language that was inadvertently left out of the Third Addendum. Among other things, the Clarification Agreement confirmed that the Third Addendum granted the Company an exclusive, worldwide license to use, with a right to sublicense, the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology for the development of treatments for cancer and use of Austrianova’s Cell-in-a-Box^® trademark and its associated technology.

With respect to Bio Blue Bird, Bavarian Nordic A/S (“Bavarian Nordic”) and GSF-Forschungszentrum für Umwelt u. Gesundheit GmbH (collectively, “Bavarian Nordic/GSF”) and Bio Blue Bird entered into the Bavarian Nordic/GSF License Agreement in July 2005 whereby Bio Blue Bird was granted a non-exclusive license to further develop, make, have made (including services under contract for Bio Blue Bird or a sub-licensee), by Contract Manufacturing Organizations, Contract Research Organizations, Consultants, Logistics Companies or others, obtain marketing approval, sell and offer for sale the clinical data generated from the second pancreatic cancer clinical trial which contained proprietary information from the 1^st Interim Analysis of the trial that used the cells and capsules developed by Bavarian Nordic/GSF (then known as “CapCells”) or otherwise use the licensed patent rights related thereto in the countries in which patents had been granted.

Bavarian Nordic/GSF and Bio Blue Bird amended the Bavarian Nordic License Agreement in December 2006 to reflect: (i) the license granted was exclusive; (ii) the royalty rate increased from 3% to 4.5%; (iii) Bio Blue Bird assumed the patent prosecution expenses; and (iv) it was made clear that the license will survive as a license granted by one of the licensors if the other licensor rejects performance under the Bavarian Nordic License Agreement due to any actions or declarations of insolvency.

In June 2013, the Company acquired from Austrianova an exclusive, worldwide license to use the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology and trademark for the development of a therapy for Type 1 and insulin-dependent Type 2 diabetes (“Diabetes Licensing Agreement”).

In October 2014, the Company entered into an exclusive, worldwide license agreement (“Melligen Cell License Agreement”) with the University of Technology, Sydney (“UTS”) in Australia to use insulin-producing genetically engineered human liver cells developed by UTS to treat Type 1 diabetes and insulin-dependent Type 2 diabetes. These cells, named “Melligen,” were tested by UTS in mice and shown to produce insulin in direct proportion to the amount of glucose in their surroundings. In those studies, when Melligen cells were transplanted into immunosuppressed diabetic mice, the blood glucose levels of the mice became normal.

7

In December 2014, the Company acquired from Austrianova an exclusive, worldwide license to use the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology in combination with genetically modified non-stem cell lines which are designed to activate Cannabinoid prodrug molecules for development of therapies for diseases and their related symptoms using of the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology and trademark (“Cannabis Licensing Agreement”). This allows the Company to develop a therapy to treat some solid cancers through encapsulation of genetically modified cells designed to convert Cannabinoids to their cancer killing form using the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology. The Company paid Austrianova $2.0 million to secure this license.

In July 2016, the Company entered into a Binding Memorandum of Understanding with Austrianova (“Austrianova MOU”). Pursuant to the Austrianova MOU, Austrianova will actively work with the Company to seek an investment partner or partners who will finance clinical trials and further develop products for the Company’s therapy for cancer, in exchange for which the Company, Austrianova and any future investment partner will each receive a portion of the net revenue of cancer products.

In October 2016, the parties amended the Bavarian Nordic/GSF License Agreement to include the right to import, reflect ownership and notification of improvements, clarify which provisions survive expiration or termination of the Bavarian Nordic/GSF License Agreement, to provide rights to Bio Blue Bird to the clinical data after expiration of the licensed patent rights and to change the notice address and recipients of Bio Blue Bird.

In August 2017, the Company entered into a Binding Term Sheet (“Term Sheet”) with SG Austria and Austrianova pursuant to which the parties reached an agreement to amend certain provisions in the SG Austria APA, the Diabetes Licensing Agreement, the Cannabis Licensing Agreement and the Vin-de-Bona Consulting Agreement (defined below).

The Term Sheet provides that the Company’s obligation to make milestone payments to Austrianova will be eliminated in their entirety under: (i) the Cannabis License Agreement; (ii) the Diabetes License Agreement; and (iii) the SG Austria APA. The Term Sheet also provides that the scope of the Diabetes License Agreement will be expanded to include all cell types and cell lines of any kind or description now or later identified, including, but not limited to, primary cells, mortal cells, immortal cells and stem cells at all stages of differentiation and from any source specifically designed to produce insulin for the treatment of diabetes.

In addition, the Term Sheet provides that the Company will have a 5-year right of first refusal in the event that Austrianova chooses to sell, transfer or assign at any time during such period the Cell-in-a-Box^® tradename and its associated technology, intellectual property, trade secrets and know-how, which includes the right to purchase any manufacturing facility used for the Cell-in-a-Box^® encapsulation process and a non-exclusive license to use the special cellulose sulfate utilized with the Cell-in-a-Box^® encapsulation process (collectively, “Associated Technologies”); provided, however, that the Associated Technologies subject to the right of first refusal do not include Bac-in-a-Box^®. Additionally, for a period of one year following the date of the Term Sheet, the Term Sheet provides that Austrianova will not solicit, negotiate or entertain any inquiry regarding the potential acquisition of the Cell-in-a-Box^® and its Associated Technologies.

The Term Sheet further provides that: (i) the royalty payments on gross sales as specified in the SG Austria APA, the Cannabis License Agreement and the Diabetes License Agreement will be changed to 4%; and (ii) the royalty payments on amounts received by the Company from sublicensees on sublicensees’ gross sales under the same agreements will be changed to 20% of the amount received by the Company from its sublicensees, provided, however, that in the event the amounts received by the Company from sublicensees is 4% or less of sublicensees’ gross sales, Austrianova or SG Austria (as the case may be) will receive 50% of what the Company receives up to 2%. In addition, Austrianova or SG Austria (as the case may be) will receive 20% of any amount the Company receives over a 4% royalty payment from sublicensees.

The Term Sheet also provides that Austrianova will receive 50% of any other financial and non-financial consideration received from the Company’s sublicensees of the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology.

The Term Sheet provides that the Company will pay Austrianova $150,000 per month for a period of six months upon the execution of the amendments to the Term Sheet.

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company operates independently and through four wholly-owned subsidiaries: (i) Bio Blue Bird; (ii) PharmaCyte Biotech Europe Limited; (iii) PharmaCyte Biotech Australia Pty. Ltd.; and (iv) Viridis Biotech, Inc. and are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and the rules and regulations of the Commission. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated. The Company’s 14.5% investment in SG Austria is presented on the cost method of accounting.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates these estimates including those related to fair values of financial instruments, intangible assets, fair value of stock-based awards, income taxes and contingent liabilities, among others. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material effect on the reported amounts of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position and results of operations.

Intangible Assets

The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") standard on goodwill and other intangible assets prescribes a two-step process for impairment testing of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles, which is performed annually, as well as when an event triggering impairment may have occurred. The first step tests for impairment, while the second step, if necessary, measures the impairment. The Company has elected to perform its annual analysis at the end of its reporting year.

The Company’s intangible assets are licensing agreements related to the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology for $1,549,427 and diabetes license for $2,000,000 for an aggregate total of $3,549,427.

10

These intangible assets have an indefinite life; therefore, they are not amortizable.

The Company concluded that there was no impairment of the carrying value of the intangibles for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be fully recoverable. If the estimated future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) from the use of an asset are less than carrying value, a write-down would be recorded to reduce the related asset to its estimated fair value. No impairment was identified or recorded during the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

For certain of the Company’s non-derivative financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, the carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for current liabilities qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

· Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

· Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

· Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The Company follows ASC subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures and ASC subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments, which permit entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Neither of these statements had an impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The carrying value of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, as reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Income Taxes

Deferred taxes are calculated using the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards, 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 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.

11

A valuation allowance is provided for deferred income tax assets when, in management’s judgment, based upon currently available information and other factors, it is more likely than not that all or a portion of such deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The determination of the need for a valuation allowance is based on an on-going evaluation of current information including, among other things, historical operating results, estimates of future earnings in different taxing jurisdictions and the expected timing of the reversals of temporary differences. The Company believes the determination to record a valuation allowance to reduce a deferred income tax asset is a significant accounting estimate because it is based on, among other things, an estimate of future taxable income in the U.S. and certain other jurisdictions, which is susceptible to change and may or may not occur, and because the impact of adjusting a valuation allowance may be material. In determining when to release the valuation allowance established against the Company’s net deferred income tax assets, the Company considers all available evidence, both positive and negative. Consistent with the Company’s policy, and because of the Company’s history of operating losses, the Company does not currently recognize the benefit of all its deferred tax assets, including tax loss carry forwards, which may be used to offset future taxable income. The Company continually assesses its ability to generate sufficient taxable income during future periods in which deferred tax assets may be realized. When the Company believes it is more likely than not that it will recover its deferred tax assets, the Company will reverse the valuation allowance as an income tax benefit in the statements of operations.

The U.S. GAAP method of accounting for uncertain tax positions utilizes a two-step approach to evaluate tax positions. Step one, recognition, requires evaluation of the tax position to determine if based solely on technical merits it is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. Step two, measurement, is addressed only if a position is more likely than not to be sustained. In step two, the tax benefit is measured as the largest amount of benefit, determined on a cumulative probability basis, which is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement with tax authorities. If a position does not meet the more likely than not threshold for recognition in step one, no benefit is recorded until the first subsequent period in which the more likely than not standard is met, the issue is resolved with the taxing authority or the statute of limitations expires. Positions previously recognized are derecognized when the Company subsequently determines the position no longer is more likely than not to be sustained. Evaluation of tax positions, their technical merits and measurements using cumulative probability are highly subjective management estimates. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” (“Tax Act”), which made significant changes to U.S. federal income tax law affecting the Company. Set forth below is a discussion of certain provisions of the Tax Act and the Company's assessment of the impact of such provisions on its financials.

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company's U.S. income will be taxed at a 21 percent (subject to IRC Section 15 blended rate provisions) down from the 35 percent federal corporate rate. ASC 740-10-25-47 requires the Company to recognize the effect of this rate change on its deferred tax assets and liabilities in the period the tax rate change is enacted.  As a result, the Company has concluded this will cause the Company's net deferred taxes to be remeasured at the new lower tax rate.  The Company maintains a full valuation allowance on its U.S. net deferred tax assets. Deferred tax asset remeasurement (tax expense) will be offset by a net decrease in valuation allowance, resulting in no impact on the Company's income tax expense.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses consist of costs incurred for direct and overhead-related research expenses and are expensed as incurred. Costs to acquire technologies, including licenses, that are utilized in research and development and that have no alternative future use are expensed when incurred. Technology developed for use in the Company’s product candidates is expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established.

Research and development costs for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017 were $267,794 and $427,670, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for only those awards ultimately expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, net of an estimated forfeiture rate. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the option's expected term and stock price volatility. In addition, judgment is also required in estimating the number of stock-based awards that are expected to be forfeited. Forfeitures are estimated based on historical experience at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of share-based payment awards represent management's best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management's judgment. Thus, if factors change and the Company uses different assumptions, its stock-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future.

12

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements. The Company maintains most of its cash balance at a financial institution located in California. Accounts at this institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. Uninsured balances aggregated approximately $1,435,000 and $772,000 at July 31, 2018 and April 30, 2018, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. Management believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company translates the financial statements of its foreign subsidiary from the local (functional) currencies to U.S. dollars in accordance with FASB ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters. All assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated at year-end exchange rates, while revenue and expenses are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the year. Adjustments for foreign currency translation fluctuations are excluded from net loss and are included in other comprehensive income. Gains and losses on short-term intercompany foreign currency transactions are recognized as incurred.

Going Concern

The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of July 31, 2018, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $97,179,506 and incurred a net loss for the three months ended July 31, 2018 of $1,215,363. The Company requires substantial additional capital to finance its planned business operations and expects to incur operating losses in future periods due to the expenses related to the Company’s core businesses. The Company has not realized any revenue since it commenced doing business in the biotechnology sector, and there can be no assurance that it will be successful in generating revenues in the future in this sector. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Over the past year, funding was provided by investors to maintain and expand the Company’s operations. Sales of the Company’s common stock were made under the initial Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed on October 17, 2014 (“First S-3”) allowing for offerings up to $50,000,000 and the second Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed on September 13, 2017 (“Second S-3”) allowing for offerings of up to $50,000,000 in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”) or transactions structured as a public offering of a distinct block or blocks (“Block Trades”) of the shares of the Company’s common stock. Over the past year, the Company continued to acquire funds through the Company’s First S-3 and Second S-3 pursuant to which the placement agent sells shares of common stock “at-the-market” in a program which is structured to provide up to $50 million dollars to the Company less certain commissions pursuant to the First S-3 and up to $25 million dollars to the Company less certain commissions pursuant to the Second S-3. From May 1, 2017 through July 31, 2018 the Company raised capital of approximately $4.2 million in “at-the-market” and Block Trade transactions. The Company plans to continue selling securities under the Second S-3 and has commitments for $1.5 million, which the Company expects to receive in 2018. Additionally, the Company has the ability to reduce the research and development expenses significantly should the funding be delayed.

Management determined that these plans alleviate substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company believes the cash on hand at July 31, 2018, the ability to use the Second S-3 to raise capital through at-the-market sales and Block Trades, sales of registered and unregistered shares of its common stock and any public offerings of common stock in which the Company may engage in will provide sufficient capital to meet the Company’s capital requirements and to fund the Company’s operations through September 30, 2019.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (“Topic 606”). Topic 606 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition,” including most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. In addition, the amendments create a new Subtopic 340-40, “Other Assets and Deferred Costs—Contracts with Customers.” In summary, the core principle of Topic 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. For a public entity, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period; early application is not permitted. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue with Customers — Deferral of the Effective Date, as an amendment to ASU No. 2014-09, which defers the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 by one year. The adoption of this standard does not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as currently the Company does not generate revenue.

ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, allows the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous US GAAP. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases are similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases in the previous leases guidance. The Update 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

ASU No, 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): - Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, was issued in June 2018. ASU 2018-07 simplifies the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. This pronouncement is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 but early adoption is permitted. The Company is still evaluating the effect of this update.

The Company does not anticipate any material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements upon the adoption of the following accounting pronouncements issued during 2016 and 2017: (i) ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities ; (ii) ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ; (iii) ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments ; (iv) ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash; and (v) ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.

The Company has authorized 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, with a par value of $0.0001, of which 13,500 shares have been designated as “Series E Convertible Preferred Stock.” There are no outstanding shares of preferred stock or Series E Convertible Preferred Stock. The Series E Convertible Preferred Stock has the following features:

· The holders of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to receive cash out of the assets of the Company before any amount is paid to the holders of any capital stock of the Company of any class junior in rank to the shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock;

· Each share of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible, at the holder’s option, into shares of common stock at the average closing bid price of the common stock for five trading days prior to the conversion date;

· The Company has the right, in its sole discretion, at any time 110 days after issuance of shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock, to redeem all the shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock upon thirty days advance written notice at a redemption price equal to the par value of the shares of the Series E Convertible Preferred Stock; and

· At every meeting of stockholders every holder of shares of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock is entitled to 50,000 votes for each share of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock with the same and identical voting rights as a holder of a share of common stock.

NOTE 5 – STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

Stock Options

As of July 31, 2018, the Company had 95,250,000 outstanding stock options to its directors and officers (collectively, “Employee Options”) and consultants (“Non-Employee Options”).

During the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company granted 0 and 2,450,000 Employee Options, respectively.

The fair value of the Employee Options at the date of grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model, based on the following weighted average assumptions:

	Three Months Ended July 31,
	2018		2017
Risk-free interest rate		–		2.0%
Expected volatility		–		107%
Expected lives (years)		–		2.5
Expected dividend yield		–		0.00%

During the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company granted Non-Employee Options of 0 and 4,200,000, respectively. The Non-Employee Options granted during the three months ended July 31, 2017 consisted of 4,200,000 guaranteed options and 0 non-guaranteed performance-based options.

The fair value of the Non-Employee Options was estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model, based on the following weighted average assumptions:

	Three Months Ended July 31,
	2018		2017
Risk-free interest rate		2.8%		1.8%
Expected volatility		98%		108%
Expected lives (years)		4.0		5.0
Expected dividend yield		0.00%		0.00%

The Company’s computation of expected volatility is based on the historical daily volatility of its publicly traded stock. For stock option grants issued during the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company used a calculated volatility for each grant. The Company lacks adequate information about the exercise behavior now and has determined the expected term assumption under the simplified method provided for under ASC 718, which averages the contractual term of the Company’s stock options of five years with the average vesting term of two and one-half years for an average of three years. The dividend yield assumption of zero is based upon the fact the Company has never paid cash dividends and presently has no intention of paying cash dividends. The risk-free interest rate used for each grant is equal to the U.S. Treasury rates in effect at the time of the grant for instruments with a similar expected life.

Non-Employee Option grants that do not vest immediately upon grant are recorded as an expense over the vesting period. At the end of each financial reporting period, the value of these options, as calculated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model, is determined, and compensation expense recognized or recovered during the period is adjusted accordingly. As a result, the amount of the future compensation expense is subject to adjustment until the Non-Employee Options are fully vested.

As of July 31, 2018, the aggregate intrinsic value of outstanding options was $1,400. This represents options whose exercise price was less than the closing fair market value of the Company’s common stock on July 31, 2018 of approximately $0.06 per share.

Warrants

The warrants issued by the Company are classified as equity. The fair value of the warrants was recorded as additional-paid-in-capital, and no further adjustments are made.

For stock warrants paid in consideration of services rendered by non-employees, the Company recognizes consulting expense in accordance with the requirements of ASC 505.

Effective May 24, 2017, the Company issued a common stock purchase warrant to the placement agent of the Company’s at-the-market and block trade offerings. The Company issued a warrant to purchase 833,333 shares based upon a block trade pursuant to the amended engagement agreement dated May 19, 2017 with the Company’s placement agent. The Company classified these warrants as equity, and the warrants have a term of five years with an exercise price of approximately $0.03 per share. Using the Black-Scholes-Merton warrant pricing model, the Company determined the aggregate value of these warrants to be approximately $20,000. The warrants have a cashless exercise feature.

Effective July 26, 2017, the Company issued a common stock purchase warrant to the placement agent of the Company’s at-the-market and block trade sales. The Company issued a warrant to purchase 2,000,000 shares based upon a block trade pursuant to the amended engagement agreement dated June 28, 2017 with the Company’s placement agent. The Company classified these warrants as equity, and the warrants have a term of five years with an exercise price of approximately $0.03 per share. Using the Black-Scholes-Merton warrant pricing model, the Company determined the aggregate value of these warrants to be approximately $23,000. The warrants have a cashless exercise feature.

NOTE 6 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is not currently a party to any pending legal proceedings, material or otherwise. There are no legal proceedings to which any property of the Company is subject.

NOTE 7 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company had the following related party transactions during the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

The Company owns 14.5% of the equity in SG Austria and is reported on the cost method of accounting. SG Austria has two subsidiaries: (i) Austrianova; and (ii) Austrianova Thailand Co., Ltd. The Company purchased products and services from these subsidiaries in the approximate amounts of $51,000 and $216,000 in the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

In April 2014, the Company entered a consulting agreement (“Vin-de-Bona Consulting Agreement”) with Vin-de-Bona Trading Private Limited (“Vin-de-Bona”) pursuant to which it agreed to provide professional consulting services to the Company. Vin-de-Bona is owned by Prof. Walter H. Günzburg and Dr. Brian Salmons, both of whom are involved in numerous aspects of the Company’s scientific endeavors relating to cancer and diabetes. The term of the agreement is for 12 months, automatically renewable for successive 12-month terms. After the initial term, either party can terminate the agreement by giving the other party 30 days’ written notice before the effective date of termination. The amounts paid for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017 were approximately $1,400 and $14,000 respectively.

NOTE 8 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company acquires assets still in development and enters research and development arrangements with third parties that often require milestone and royalty payments to the third-party contingent upon the occurrence of certain future events linked to the success of the asset in development. Milestone payments may be required, contingent upon the successful achievement of an important point in the development life-cycle of the pharmaceutical product (e.g., approval of the product for marketing by a regulatory agency). If required by the license agreements, the Company may have to make royalty payments based upon a percentage of the sales of the pharmaceutical products if regulatory approval for marketing is obtained.

Office Lease

Effective September 1, 2016, the Company entered into a new lease for office space at 23046 Avenida de la Carlota, Suite 600, Laguna Hills, California 92653 (“Leased Premises”). The term of the lease is for 12 months. In May 2017, the Company entered into an additional two-year lease for the Leased Premises, commencing upon the expiration of the term of the first lease. The term of the new lease expires on August 31, 2019.

Rent expense for these offices for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017 was $8,327 and $8,222, respectively.

The following table summarizes the Company’s aggregate future minimum lease payments required under the office lease for the Leased Premises as of July 31, 2018.

Material Agreements

Amendments to Agreements with SG Austria and Austrianova

In May 2018, the Company entered into the Amendments contemplated by the Term Sheet. The terms and conditions of the Amendments are summarized in Note 1 – Nature of Business, Company Background and Material Agreements.

Melligen Cell License Agreement

The Melligen Cell License Agreement requires that the Company pay royalty, milestone payments and patent costs to UTS as follows:

· 6% gross exploitation revenue on product sales by the Company;

· 25% of gross revenues if the product is sub-licensed by the Company;

· Milestone payments of AU$ 50,000 at the successful conclusion of clinical studies, AU$ 100,000 at the successful conclusion of a Phase 1 clinical trial, AU$ 450,000 at the successful conclusion of a Phase 2 clinical trials and AU$ 3,000,000 upon conclusion of a Phase 3 clinical trial; and

· Patent prosecution costs for the Melligen Cells plus a 15% patent administration fee to UTS related to the licensed intellectual property.

Compensation Agreements

The Company entered executive compensation agreements with its three executive officers in March 2015, each of which was amended in December 2015. The amendment has a term of two years. The Company also entered a compensation agreement with a Board member in April 2015 which continues in effect until the member is no longer on the Board.

In March 2017, the Company amended the executive compensation agreements. The term for each agreement is two years from an effective date of January 1, 2017. At the same time, the Company amended the compensation agreement with the Board member referenced above. It continues in effect until the member is no longer on the Board.

The Company has four independent directors. Each director receives the same compensation: (i) $12,500 in cash for each calendar quarter of service on the Board; (ii) 500,000 fully-paid, non-assessable shares of the Company’s restricted common stock (“Shares”) annually; and (iii) a five-year option to purchase 500,000 Shares annually at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Shares on the date of grant. The Shares and the Options fully vest on the date of the grants.

The Company’s Chief Medical Officer (“CMO”) receives: (i) $10,000 in cash for each calendar month of service as the Company’s CMO; (ii) 1,200,000 Shares annually; and (iii) a five-year Option to purchase 1,200,000 Shares at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Shares on the date of the grant. The Shares and the Option Shares each vest in the amount of 100,000 Shares per month. The Company will indemnify the CMO for her work as the Company’s CMO.

NOTE 9 - INCOME TAXES

The Company had no income tax expense for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. During the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had a net operating loss (“NOL”) for each period which generated deferred tax assets for NOL carryforwards. The Company provided valuation allowances against the net deferred tax assets including the deferred tax assets for NOL carryforwards. Valuation allowances provided for the net deferred tax asset increased by approximately $301,000 and $565,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

There was no material difference between the effective tax rate and the projected blended statutory tax rate for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017.

21

In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considered whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all the deferred asset will not be realized. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Based on the available objective evidence, including the history of operating losses and the uncertainty of generating future taxable income, management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets at July 31, 2018 will not be fully realizable. Accordingly, management has maintained a valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets at July 31, 2018.

The Tax Act was enacted on December 22, 2017. The Tax Act reduces the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, requires companies to pay a one-time transition tax on earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that were previously tax deferred and creates new taxes on certain foreign sourced earnings. The Company is applying the guidance in SAB 118 when accounting for the enactment-date effects of the Tax Act. The Company’s accounting for the Tax Act is incomplete, as noted at year-end. However, the Company is able to reasonably estimate certain effects and, therefore, recorded provisional adjustments at April 30, 2018 associated with the reduction of the US federal corporate tax rate. During the quarter ended July 31, 2018, the Company recognized no adjustments to the provisional amounts recorded at April 30, 2018 and has not completed the Company’s accounting for all of the tax effects of the Tax Act. The Company is awaiting further guidance from U.S. federal and state regulatory bodies with regards to the final accounting and reporting of these items in the several jurisdictions where the Company files tax returns. In all cases the Company will continue to make and refine its calculations as additional analysis is completed. The Company’s estimates may also be affected as it gains a more thorough understanding of the tax law.

The Company’s policy is to recognize any interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. As of the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had accrued no interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

See Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2018 for additional information regarding income taxes.

NOTE 10 – EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would be outstanding if the potentially dilutive securities had been issued. Potential common shares outstanding principally include stock options and warrants. During the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company incurred losses. Accordingly, the effect of any common stock equivalent would be anti-dilutive during those periods and are not included in the calculation of diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding.

The table below sets forth the basic loss per share calculations:

	Three Months Ended July 31,
	2018			2017
Net loss	$	(1,215,363	)	$	(1,688,415	)
Basic weighted average number of shares outstanding		1,046,496,430			925,579,393
Diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding		1,046,496,430			925,579,393
Basic and diluted loss per share	$	(0.00	)	$	(0.00	)

The table below sets forth these potentially dilutive securities:

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Report”) includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. All statements other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of this Report, including any projections of earnings, revenue or other financial items, any statements regarding the plans and objectives of management for future operations, any statements concerning proposed new products or services, any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance, any statements regarding expected benefits from any transactions and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by use of terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “believes,” “intends,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “goal,” “aim,” “potential” or “continue,” or the negative thereof or other comparable terminology. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements contained in this Report are reasonable, there can be no assurance that such expectations or any of the forward-looking statements will prove to be correct, and actual results could differ materially from those projected or assumed in the forward-looking statements. Thus, investors should refer to and carefully review information in future documents we file with the Commission. Our future financial condition and results of operations, as well as any forward-looking statements, are subject to inherent risk and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the risk factors set forth in “Part I, Item 1A – Risk Factors” set forth in our Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2018 and for the other reasons described elsewhere in this Report.

All forward- looking statements and reasons why results may differ included in this Report are made as of the date hereof, and we do not intend to update any forward-looking statements except as required by law or applicable regulations. Except where the context otherwise requires, in this Report, the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to PharmaCyte Biotech, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and, where appropriate, its subsidiaries.

Overview

We are a clinical stage biotechnology company focused on developing and preparing to commercialize cellular therapies for various types of cancer and for diabetes that are based upon a proprietary cellulose-based live cell encapsulation technology known as “Cell-in-a-Box^®.” The Cell-in-a-Box^® technology is intended to be used as a platform upon which therapies for several types of cancer, including LAPC, and diabetes will be developed.

We are developing therapies for pancreatic and other solid cancerous tumors by using the encapsulation of genetically transformed live cells which are surgically implanted at appropriate sites in the body (as closely as possible to the tumor itself when the tumor is a single nodule) to enable the delivery of a cancer-killing chemotherapy drug directly at the source of the cancer. We are currently working on an Investigational New Drug Application (“IND”) to submit to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) so that we can commence a Phase 2b clinical trial involving LAPC. Based on advice from our consulting oncologists, our Chief Medical Officer and our Medical and Scientific Advisory Board regarding our planned trial design, we have determined that the data contained in previous clinical trial reports are not sufficient to fully support a Phase 3 pivotal trial - a trial that would, if successful, fully support applying for marketing authorization from the FDA. Therefore, we are designing a Phase 2b clinical trial that, if successful, we believe will provide the information necessary for the design of a successful Phase 3 pivotal trial and possible accelerated approval for marketing by the FDA.

We are also developing a therapy for Type 1 diabetes and insulin-dependent Type 2 diabetes. The Company’s diabetes therapy consists of encapsulating genetically modified human cells, beta islet cells and/or insulin-producing stem cells using the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology and then implanting them in the body to act as a bio-artificial pancreas for insulin production.

In addition, we are examining ways to exploit the benefits of the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology to develop therapies for difficult-to-treat forms of cancer that are based upon the use of Cannabinoids from Cannabis as prodrugs in much the same way that the Cell-in-a-Box^® plus cancer prodrug will be used for LAPC (see above).

23

Performance Indicators

Non-financial performance indicators used by management to manage and assess how the business is progressing include, but are not limited to, the ability to: (i) acquire appropriate funding for all aspects of our operations; (ii) acquire and complete necessary contracts; (iii) complete activities for producing cells and having them encapsulated for the planned preclinical studies and clinical trials; (iv) initiate all purity and toxicology cellular assessments; and (v) ensure the manufacture of encapsulated cells in accordance with current good manufacturing procedures (“cGMP”) to use in our clinical trials; (vi) have regulatory work completed to enable studies and trials to be submitted to regulatory agencies.

There are numerous factors required to be completed successfully to ensure our final product candidates are ready for use in our clinical trials. Therefore, the effects of material transactions with related parties and certain other parties to the extent necessary for such an undertaking may have substantial effects on both the timeliness and success of our current and prospective financial position and operating results. Nonetheless, we are actively working to ensure strong ties and interactions to minimize the inherent risks regarding success. From our assessments to date, we do not believe there are factors which will cause materially different amounts to be reported than those presented in this Report and aim to assess this regularly to provide the most accurate information to our shareholders.

Results of Operations

Three months ended July 31, 2018 compared to three months ended July 31, 2017

Revenue

We had no revenues in the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017.

Operating Expenses and Loss from Operations

The following table summarize our operating expenses and loss from operations for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively:

Three Months Ended July 31,
2018		2017
$	1,215,363	$	1,688,415

The total operating expenses for the three-month period ended July 31, 2018 decreased by $473,052 from the three months ended July 31, 2017. The decrease is attributable to a decrease in research and development cost of $159,876, a decrease in director fees of $15,216, a decrease in compensation expense of $164,244, a decrease in legal and professional expense of $47,473 and a decrease in general and administrative expenses of $86,243. The decrease in general and administrative expenses was mainly attributable to a decrease in travel expenses.

Discussion of Operating, Investing and Financing Activities

The following table presents a summary of our sources and uses of cash for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively:

	Three Months Ended
	July 31, 2018			July 31, 2017
Net cash used in operating activities:	$	(622,243	)	$	(935,567	)
Net cash used in investing activities:	$	–		$	–
Net cash provided by financing activities:	$	1,395,000		$	1,751,409
Effect of currency rate exchange	$	(1,273	)	$	(1,718	)
Net increase in cash	$	771,484		$	814,124

24

Operating Activities:

The net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended July 31, 2018 is a result of our net losses, offset by securities issued for services and compensation, a decrease to prepaid expenses and increases to accounts payable and accrued expenses. The cash used in operating activities for the three months ended July 31, 2017 is a result of our net losses offset by an increase in stock issued, a decrease to prepaid expenses and increases to accounts payable and accrued expenses. See Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows on page 4.

Investing Activities:

There were no investing activities in the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017.

Financing Activities:

The cash provided from financing activities is mainly attributable to the proceeds from the sale of our common stock.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of July 31, 2018, our cash totaled approximately $1.8 million, compared to approximately $1.1 million at July 31, 2017. Working capital was approximately $1.1 million at July 31, 2018 and approximately $640,000 at July 31, 2017. The decrease in cash is attributable to proceeds from the sale of our common stock and the decrease in our operating expenses.

We believe that our cash on hand as of July 31, 2018, the sales of registered and unregistered shares of our common stock and any public offerings of common stock in which we may engage will provide sufficient capital to meet our capital requirements and to fund our operations through September 30, 2019. We plan to pursue additional funding opportunities in connection with planning for and conducting our Phase 2b clinical trial in LAPC. Among others, we intend on continuing the sale of our common stock to raise capital to fund these activities and for working capital for corporate purposes, if necessary.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Except as described below, we have no off-balance sheet arrangements that could have a material current effect or that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies

Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In connection with their preparation, we are required to make assumptions and estimates about future events and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and the related disclosures. We base our assumptions, estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be relevant at the time the financial statements are prepared. On a regular basis, management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are presented fairly and in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.

We discuss our critical accounting estimates and policies in Part II, Item 7. "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2018. There has been no material change in our critical accounting estimates and policies since April 30, 2018.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are exposed to market risks, which may result in potential losses arising from adverse changes in, among other things, foreign exchange rates. We have not taken steps to try and manage foreign exchange rate fluctuations. We do not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes to manage this risk. As indicated below, we do not believe we are exposed to material market risk with respect to our cash.

We currently have no operations outside the U.S., but we have contracted with Austrianova to manufacture our encapsulated live cell products in Singapore for preclinical studies and in Thailand for clinical trials. Manufacturing and research costs related to these activities are paid for in a combination of U.S. dollars and local currencies. Accordingly, we are subject to limited foreign currency exchange rate risk. It is not possible to estimate with any degree of accuracy the degree of this risk on a percentage basis. As of July 31, 2018, we do not believe foreign currency exchange rate risk is a substantial risk at this time due to the limited extent of our operations; however, if we conduct additional clinical trials and seek to manufacture a more significant portion of our product candidates outside of the U.S. in the future, we could incur significant foreign currency exchange rate risk.

As of July 31, 2018, we had cash of approximately $1.8 million. We do not engage in any hedging activities against changes in interest rates or foreign currency exchange rates. Because of the short-term nature of our cash, we do not believe that an immediate 10% increase in interest rates would have any significant impact on the fair value of our cash.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer, President and General Counsel, as our principal executive officer (“Chief Executive Officer”), and our Chief Financial Officer, as our principal financial officer (“Chief Financial Officer”), evaluated the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”). Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit to the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the period specified by the Commission’s rules and forms and are accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of July 31, 2018, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting.

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Also, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Management’s Evaluation of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as that term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(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 U.S. GAAP.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of July 31, 2018 based on the criteria outlined in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) and identified the following material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting:

· Insufficient procedures and control documentation to implement control procedures. We have developed procedures to provide ample review time of financial information by qualified accounting and finance personnel as well as management. We have fully implemented these procedures and will continue to review these procedures to determine ways to further improve them.

· Insufficient segregation of duties of the Chief Financial Officer. We have delegated some of the duties of our Chief Financial Officer to other personnel within the Company and have added review and approval processes performed by the Chief Executive Officer.

· Insufficient information technology controls and documentation. We currently use accounting software which we have determined is inadequate to provide strong controls. We are in the process of initiating a review process to fully evaluate the deficiencies in our technology controls and documentation. Based upon the results of such a review process, we will implement required remediation measures.

Because of these material weaknesses, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of July 31, 2018, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on the COSO criteria.

We are in the process of investigating new procedures and controls for fiscal year 2019. We plan to make changes to our procedures and controls that we believe are reasonably likely to strengthen and materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Prior to the remediation of these material weaknesses, there remains risk that the processes and procedures on which we currently rely will fail to be sufficiently effective, which could result in material misstatement of our financial position or results of operations and require a restatement. Moreover, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls-even where we conclude the controls are operating effectively-can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, including instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, our control systems, as we develop them, may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected and could be material to our financial statements.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

NATURE OF BUSINESS

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS

PharmaCyte Biotech, Inc. (“Company”) is a clinical stage biotechnology company focused on developing and preparing to commercialize cellular therapies for cancer and diabetes based upon a proprietary cellulose-based live cell encapsulation technology known as “Cell-in-a-Box^®.” The Company intends to use the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology as a platform upon which treatments for several types of cancer and diabetes will be developed.

The Company is developing therapies for solid tumor cancers involving the encapsulation of live cells placed in the body to enable the activation of cancer-killing drugs at the source of the cancer. The Company is also developing a therapy for Type 1 diabetes and insulin-dependent Type 2 diabetes based upon the encapsulation, using the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology, of a human cell line genetically engineered to produce, store and secrete insulin at levels in proportion to the levels of blood sugar in the human body. The Company is also working on an alternative route to bring a biological treatment for diabetes into the clinic. The Company is exploring the possibility of encapsulating human insulin-producing islet cells or stem cells and transplanting them into a diabetic patient. In addition, the Company is examining ways to exploit the benefits of the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology to develop therapies for cancer based upon the constituents of the Cannabis plant, known as “Cannabinoids.”

Cancer Therapy

Targeted Chemotherapy

The Company is using the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology to develop a therapy for solid cancerous tumors through a form of targeted chemotherapy. For pancreatic cancer, the Company is encapsulating genetically engineered live human cells that produce an enzyme designed to convert the prodrug ifosfamide into its cancer-killing form. The capsules containing these cells will be implanted in a patient in the blood supply as near as possible to the pancreas tumor; these encapsulated cells will form the target for the cancer prodrug. The cancer prodrug ifosfamide will then be given intravenously at one-third the normal dose. In this way, it is believed that the ifosfamide will be converted at the site of the tumor instead of in the liver where it is normally converted. The Company believes placement of the Cell-in-a-Box^® capsules near the tumor enables the production of optimal concentrations of the “cancer-killing” form of ifosfamide at the site of the tumor. The cancer-killing metabolite of ifosfamide has a short half-life, which the Company believes will result in little to no collateral damage to other organs in the body.

Pancreatic Cancer Therapy

A critical unmet medical need exists for patients with locally advanced, inoperable non-metastatic pancreatic cancer (“LAPC”) whose pancreas tumors no longer respond after 4-6 months of treatment with either Abraxane^® plus gemcitabine or the 4-drug combination known as FOLFIRINOX (both combinations are the current standards of care). These patients have no effective treatment alternative once their tumors no longer respond to these therapies. Two of the previously used treatments for such patients are 5-fluorouiracil (“5-FU”) or capecitabine (a prodrug of 5-FU) plus radiation (chemoradiation therapy). Both treatments are only marginally effective in treating the tumor and result in serious side effects. More recently, radiation treatment alone is being used at some cancer centers in the U.S. The Company is developing a therapy comprised of Cell-in-a-Box^® encapsulated live cells implanted near the pancreas tumor followed treatment with low doses of the cancer prodrug ifosfamide. The Company believes that its treatment can serve as a “consolidation therapy” with the current standards of care for patients with LAPC and thus address this critical unmet medical need.

Subject to FDA approval, the Company plans to commence a clinical trial involving patients with LAPC to test this hypothesis. The trial will take place in the United States (“U.S.”) with possible study sites in Europe.

Malignant Ascites Fluid Therapy

The Company is also developing a therapy to delay the production and accumulation of malignant ascites fluid that results from many types of abdominal tumors. Malignant ascites fluid is secreted by abdominal tumors into the abdomen after the tumors have reached a certain stage of growth. This fluid contains cancer cells that can seed and form new tumors throughout the abdomen. This fluid accumulates in the abdominal cavity, causing swelling of the abdomen, severe breathing difficulties and extreme pain.

Malignant ascites fluid must be removed by paracentesis on a periodic basis. This procedure is painful and costly. There is no therapy that prevents or delays the production and accumulation of malignant ascites fluid. The Company has been involved in a series of preclinical studies conducted by Translational Drug Development (“TD2”) to determine if the combination of Cell-in-a-Box^® encapsulated cells plus ifosfamide can delay the production and accumulation of malignant ascites fluid. We plan to conduct another preclinical study in Germany to determine if our conclusions from the TD2 studies are valid. If the preclinical studies are deemed successful and the Company receives approval to do so from the FDA, the Company plans to conduct a clinical trial in the U. S. It also plans to have additional study sites in Europe if the Company receive approval to do so from the EMA.

Diabetes Therapy

Bio-Artificial Pancreas for Diabetes

The Company plans to develop a therapy for Type 1 diabetes and insulin-dependent Type 2 diabetes. The Company is attempting to develop a therapy that involves encapsulation of human liver cells that have been genetically engineered to produce, store insulin and release insulin on demand at levels in proportion to the levels of blood sugar (glucose) in the human body. The Company is also exploring the possibility of encapsulating human-insulin producing cells (beta islet cells) and/or insulin-producing stem cells. All three types of cells will be encapsulated using the Cell-in-a-Box^® encapsulation technology. After appropriate animal testing has been successfully completed, encapsulated insulin-producing cells will then be transplanted into diabetic patients. The goal for these approaches is to develop a bio-artificial pancreas for purposes of insulin production for diabetics who are insulin dependent.

Cannabis Therapy

Cannabinoids

The Company plans to use Cannabinoids (chemical constituents of the Cannabis plant) to develop therapies for cancer, with the initial target being brain cancer. The Company is focusing on developing specific therapies based on carefully chosen molecules rather than using complex Cannabis extracts. Targeted cannabinoid-based chemotherapy utilizing the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology offers a “green” approach to treating solid-tumor malignancies. Here, the methodology of placing a target in proximity to the tumor so that a cancer prodrug can be activated there mimics the Company’s efforts with LAPC except that in this case, the cancer prodrug will be Cannabinoid-derived.

To further its Cannabis therapy development plans, the Company entered a Research Agreement with the University of Northern Colorado. The initial goal of the ongoing research was to develop methods for the identification, separation and quantification of constituents of Cannabis (some of which are prodrugs) that may be used in combination with the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology to treat cancer; this has been accomplished. Subsequent studies have been undertaken to identify the appropriate cell type that can convert the selected Cannabinoid prodrugs into metabolites with anticancer activity. Once identified, the genetically modified cells that will produce the appropriate enzyme to convert that prodrug will be encapsulated using the Company’s Cell-in-a-Box^® technology. The encapsulated cells and Cannabinoid prodrugs identified by these studies will then be combined and used for future studies to evaluate their anticancer effectiveness.

Company Background and Material Agreements

The Company is a Nevada corporation incorporated in 1996. In 2013, the Company restructured its operations to focus on biotechnology. The restructuring resulted in the Company focusing all its efforts upon the development of a novel, effective and safe way to treat various types of cancer and diabetes. On January 6, 2015, the Company changed its name from Nuvilex, Inc. to PharmaCyte Biotech, Inc. to reflect the nature of its business.

In 2011, the Company entered an Asset Purchase Agreement with SG Austria Private Limited (“SG Austria APA”) to purchase 100% of the assets and liabilities of SG Austria Private Limited (“SG Austria”). Austrianova Singapore Pte. Ltd. (“Austrianova”) and Bio Blue Bird AG (“Bio Blue Bird”), then wholly-owned subsidiaries of SG Austria, were to become wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company on the condition that the Company pay SG Austria $2.5 million and 100,000,000 shares of the common stock of the Company’s common stock. The Company was to receive 100,000 shares of common stock of Austrianova and nine bearer shares of Bio Blue Bird representing 100% of the ownership of Bio Blue Bird.

Through two addenda to the SG Austria APA, the closing date of the SG Austria APA was extended twice by agreement between the parties.

In June 2013, the Company and SG Austria entered a Third Addendum to the SG Austria APA (“Third Addendum”). The Third Addendum changed materially the transaction contemplated by the SG Austria APA. Under the Third Addendum, the Company acquired 100% of the equity interests in Bio Blue Bird and received a 14.5% equity interest in SG Austria. In addition, the Company received nine bearer shares of Bio Blue Bird to reflect its 100% ownership of Bio Blue Bird. The Company paid: (i) $500,000 to retire all outstanding debt of Bio Blue Bird; and (ii) $1.0 million to SG Austria. The Company also paid SG Austria $1,572,193 in exchange for the 14.5% equity interest in SG Austria. The Third Addendum required SG Austria to return the 100,000,000 shares of common stock held by SG Austria and for the Company to return the 100,000 shares of common stock of Austrianova the Company held.

Effective as of the same date of the Third Addendum, the parties entered the Clarification Agreement to the Third Addendum (“Clarification Agreement”) to clarify and include certain language that was inadvertently left out of the Third Addendum. Among other things, the Clarification Agreement confirmed that the Third Addendum granted the Company an exclusive, worldwide license to use, with a right to sublicense, the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology for the development of treatments for cancer and use of Austrianova’s Cell-in-a-Box^® trademark and its associated technology.

With respect to Bio Blue Bird, Bavarian Nordic A/S (“Bavarian Nordic”) and GSF-Forschungszentrum für Umwelt u. Gesundheit GmbH (collectively, “Bavarian Nordic/GSF”) and Bio Blue Bird entered into the Bavarian Nordic/GSF License Agreement in July 2005 whereby Bio Blue Bird was granted a non-exclusive license to further develop, make, have made (including services under contract for Bio Blue Bird or a sub-licensee), by Contract Manufacturing Organizations, Contract Research Organizations, Consultants, Logistics Companies or others, obtain marketing approval, sell and offer for sale the clinical data generated from the second pancreatic cancer clinical trial which contained proprietary information from the 1^st Interim Analysis of the trial that used the cells and capsules developed by Bavarian Nordic/GSF (then known as “CapCells”) or otherwise use the licensed patent rights related thereto in the countries in which patents had been granted.

Bavarian Nordic/GSF and Bio Blue Bird amended the Bavarian Nordic License Agreement in December 2006 to reflect: (i) the license granted was exclusive; (ii) the royalty rate increased from 3% to 4.5%; (iii) Bio Blue Bird assumed the patent prosecution expenses; and (iv) it was made clear that the license will survive as a license granted by one of the licensors if the other licensor rejects performance under the Bavarian Nordic License Agreement due to any actions or declarations of insolvency.

In June 2013, the Company acquired from Austrianova an exclusive, worldwide license to use the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology and trademark for the development of a therapy for Type 1 and insulin-dependent Type 2 diabetes (“Diabetes Licensing Agreement”).

In October 2014, the Company entered into an exclusive, worldwide license agreement (“Melligen Cell License Agreement”) with the University of Technology, Sydney (“UTS”) in Australia to use insulin-producing genetically engineered human liver cells developed by UTS to treat Type 1 diabetes and insulin-dependent Type 2 diabetes. These cells, named “Melligen,” were tested by UTS in mice and shown to produce insulin in direct proportion to the amount of glucose in their surroundings. In those studies, when Melligen cells were transplanted into immunosuppressed diabetic mice, the blood glucose levels of the mice became normal.

In December 2014, the Company acquired from Austrianova an exclusive, worldwide license to use the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology in combination with genetically modified non-stem cell lines which are designed to activate Cannabinoid prodrug molecules for development of therapies for diseases and their related symptoms using of the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology and trademark (“Cannabis Licensing Agreement”). This allows the Company to develop a therapy to treat some solid cancers through encapsulation of genetically modified cells designed to convert Cannabinoids to their cancer killing form using the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology. The Company paid Austrianova $2.0 million to secure this license.

In July 2016, the Company entered into a Binding Memorandum of Understanding with Austrianova (“Austrianova MOU”). Pursuant to the Austrianova MOU, Austrianova will actively work with the Company to seek an investment partner or partners who will finance clinical trials and further develop products for the Company’s therapy for cancer, in exchange for which the Company, Austrianova and any future investment partner will each receive a portion of the net revenue of cancer products.

In October 2016, the parties amended the Bavarian Nordic/GSF License Agreement to include the right to import, reflect ownership and notification of improvements, clarify which provisions survive expiration or termination of the Bavarian Nordic/GSF License Agreement, to provide rights to Bio Blue Bird to the clinical data after expiration of the licensed patent rights and to change the notice address and recipients of Bio Blue Bird.

In August 2017, the Company entered into a Binding Term Sheet (“Term Sheet”) with SG Austria and Austrianova pursuant to which the parties reached an agreement to amend certain provisions in the SG Austria APA, the Diabetes Licensing Agreement, the Cannabis Licensing Agreement and the Vin-de-Bona Consulting Agreement (defined below).

The Term Sheet provides that the Company’s obligation to make milestone payments to Austrianova will be eliminated in their entirety under: (i) the Cannabis License Agreement; (ii) the Diabetes License Agreement; and (iii) the SG Austria APA. The Term Sheet also provides that the scope of the Diabetes License Agreement will be expanded to include all cell types and cell lines of any kind or description now or later identified, including, but not limited to, primary cells, mortal cells, immortal cells and stem cells at all stages of differentiation and from any source specifically designed to produce insulin for the treatment of diabetes.

In addition, the Term Sheet provides that the Company will have a 5-year right of first refusal in the event that Austrianova chooses to sell, transfer or assign at any time during such period the Cell-in-a-Box^® tradename and its associated technology, intellectual property, trade secrets and know-how, which includes the right to purchase any manufacturing facility used for the Cell-in-a-Box^® encapsulation process and a non-exclusive license to use the special cellulose sulfate utilized with the Cell-in-a-Box^® encapsulation process (collectively, “Associated Technologies”); provided, however, that the Associated Technologies subject to the right of first refusal do not include Bac-in-a-Box^®. Additionally, for a period of one year following the date of the Term Sheet, the Term Sheet provides that Austrianova will not solicit, negotiate or entertain any inquiry regarding the potential acquisition of the Cell-in-a-Box^® and its Associated Technologies.

The Term Sheet further provides that: (i) the royalty payments on gross sales as specified in the SG Austria APA, the Cannabis License Agreement and the Diabetes License Agreement will be changed to 4%; and (ii) the royalty payments on amounts received by the Company from sublicensees on sublicensees’ gross sales under the same agreements will be changed to 20% of the amount received by the Company from its sublicensees, provided, however, that in the event the amounts received by the Company from sublicensees is 4% or less of sublicensees’ gross sales, Austrianova or SG Austria (as the case may be) will receive 50% of what the Company receives up to 2%. In addition, Austrianova or SG Austria (as the case may be) will receive 20% of any amount the Company receives over a 4% royalty payment from sublicensees.

The Term Sheet also provides that Austrianova will receive 50% of any other financial and non-financial consideration received from the Company’s sublicensees of the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology.

The Term Sheet provides that the Company will pay Austrianova $150,000 per month for a period of six months upon the execution of the amendments to the Term Sheet.

The Term Sheet provides that Dr. Günzburg, who currently serves as the Company’s Chief Scientific Officer, will not receive any cash compensation from the Company for services rendered as its Chief Scientific Officer under the Vin-de-Bona Consulting Agreement for a period of six months beginning September 1, 2017.

Finally, the parties are obligated to negotiate in good faith, using reasonable commercial efforts, to negotiate the terms and conditions of amendments to the Agreements (defined in the Term Sheet), which upon execution will supersede the Term Sheet.

In May 2018, the Company entered into the amendments contemplated by the Term Sheet (“Amendments”). The Amendments provide that the Company’s obligation to make milestone payments to Austrianova will be eliminated in their entirety under the: (i) Cannabis License Agreement; and (ii) the Diabetes License Agreement, as amended. The Amendments also provide that the Company’s obligation to make milestone payments to SG Austria pursuant to the SG Austria APA, as amended and clarified, will be eliminated in their entirety. One of the Amendments also provides that the scope of the Diabetes License Agreement will be expanded to include all cell types and cell lines of any kind or description now or later identified, including, but not limited to, primary cells, mortal cells, immortal cells and stem cells at all stages of differentiation and from any source specifically designed to produce insulin for the treatment of diabetes.

In addition, one of the Amendments provides that the Company will have a 5-year right of first refusal from August 30, 2017 in the event that Austrianova chooses to sell, transfer or assign at any time during such period the Cell-in-a-Box^® tradename and its Associated Technologies; provided, however, that the Associated Technologies subject to the right of first refusal do not include Bac-in-a-Box^®. Additionally, for a period of one year from August 30, 2017 one of the Amendments provides that Austrianova will not solicit, negotiate or entertain any inquiry regarding the potential acquisition of the Cell-in-a-Box^® and its Associated Technologies.

The Amendments further provide that: (i) the royalty payments on gross sales as specified in the SG Austria APA, the Cannabis License Agreement and the Diabetes License Agreement will be changed to 4%; and (ii) the royalty payments on amounts received by the Company from sublicensees’ gross sales under the same agreements will be changed to 20% of the amount received by the Company’s sublicensees, provided, however, that in the event the amounts received by the Company from sublicensees is 4% or less of sublicensees’ gross sales, Austrianova or SG Austria (as the case may be) will receive 50% of what the Company receives up to 2%. In addition, Austrianova or SG Austria (as the case may be) will receive 20% of any amount the Company receives over a 4% royalty payment from sublicensees.

One of the Amendments requires the Company to pay $900,000 to Austrianova ratably over a nine-month period in the amount of two $50,000 payments each month during the nine-month period on the days of the month to be agreed upon between the parties, with a cure period of 20 calendar days after receipt by the Company of written notice from Austrianova that the Company has failed to pay timely a monthly payment. As of April 30, 2018, the $900,000 amount had been paid in full.

The Amendments also provide that Austrianova will receive 50% of any other financial and non-financial consideration received from the Company’s sublicensees of the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology.

Finally, one of the Amendments provides that Dr. Günzburg will not receive any cash compensation from the Company for services rendered as the Company’s Chief Scientific Officer under the Vin-de-Bona Consulting Agreement for a period of six months beginning September 1, 2017.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

3 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

General

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of July 31, 2018 and for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017 are unaudited. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and are presented in accordance with the requirements of Regulation S-X of the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended July 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2019. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2018 and the Notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended April 30, 2018 (“Form 10-K”) the Company filed with the Commission.

The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of April 30, 2018 contained herein has been derived from the audited Consolidated Financial Statements as of April 30, 2018 but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP.

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company operates independently and through four wholly-owned subsidiaries: (i) Bio Blue Bird; (ii) PharmaCyte Biotech Europe Limited; (iii) PharmaCyte Biotech Australia Pty. Ltd.; and (iv) Viridis Biotech, Inc. and are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and the rules and regulations of the Commission. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated. The Company’s 14.5% investment in SG Austria is presented on the cost method of accounting.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates these estimates including those related to fair values of financial instruments, intangible assets, fair value of stock-based awards, income taxes and contingent liabilities, among others. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material effect on the reported amounts of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position and results of operations.

Intangible Assets

The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") standard on goodwill and other intangible assets prescribes a two-step process for impairment testing of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles, which is performed annually, as well as when an event triggering impairment may have occurred. The first step tests for impairment, while the second step, if necessary, measures the impairment. The Company has elected to perform its annual analysis at the end of its reporting year.

The Company’s intangible assets are licensing agreements related to the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology for $1,549,427 and diabetes license for $2,000,000 for an aggregate total of $3,549,427.

These intangible assets have an indefinite life; therefore, they are not amortizable.

The Company concluded that there was no impairment of the carrying value of the intangibles for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be fully recoverable. If the estimated future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) from the use of an asset are less than carrying value, a write-down would be recorded to reduce the related asset to its estimated fair value. No impairment was identified or recorded during the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

For certain of the Company’s non-derivative financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, the carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for current liabilities qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

· Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

· Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

· Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The Company follows ASC subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures and ASC subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments, which permit entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Neither of these statements had an impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The carrying value of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, as reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Income Taxes

Deferred taxes are calculated using the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards, 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 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.

A valuation allowance is provided for deferred income tax assets when, in management’s judgment, based upon currently available information and other factors, it is more likely than not that all or a portion of such deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The determination of the need for a valuation allowance is based on an on-going evaluation of current information including, among other things, historical operating results, estimates of future earnings in different taxing jurisdictions and the expected timing of the reversals of temporary differences. The Company believes the determination to record a valuation allowance to reduce a deferred income tax asset is a significant accounting estimate because it is based on, among other things, an estimate of future taxable income in the U.S. and certain other jurisdictions, which is susceptible to change and may or may not occur, and because the impact of adjusting a valuation allowance may be material. In determining when to release the valuation allowance established against the Company’s net deferred income tax assets, the Company considers all available evidence, both positive and negative. Consistent with the Company’s policy, and because of the Company’s history of operating losses, the Company does not currently recognize the benefit of all its deferred tax assets, including tax loss carry forwards, which may be used to offset future taxable income. The Company continually assesses its ability to generate sufficient taxable income during future periods in which deferred tax assets may be realized. When the Company believes it is more likely than not that it will recover its deferred tax assets, the Company will reverse the valuation allowance as an income tax benefit in the statements of operations.

The U.S. GAAP method of accounting for uncertain tax positions utilizes a two-step approach to evaluate tax positions. Step one, recognition, requires evaluation of the tax position to determine if based solely on technical merits it is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. Step two, measurement, is addressed only if a position is more likely than not to be sustained. In step two, the tax benefit is measured as the largest amount of benefit, determined on a cumulative probability basis, which is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement with tax authorities. If a position does not meet the more likely than not threshold for recognition in step one, no benefit is recorded until the first subsequent period in which the more likely than not standard is met, the issue is resolved with the taxing authority or the statute of limitations expires. Positions previously recognized are derecognized when the Company subsequently determines the position no longer is more likely than not to be sustained. Evaluation of tax positions, their technical merits and measurements using cumulative probability are highly subjective management estimates. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” (“Tax Act”), which made significant changes to U.S. federal income tax law affecting the Company. Set forth below is a discussion of certain provisions of the Tax Act and the Company's assessment of the impact of such provisions on its financials.

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company's U.S. income will be taxed at a 21 percent (subject to IRC Section 15 blended rate provisions) down from the 35 percent federal corporate rate. ASC 740-10-25-47 requires the Company to recognize the effect of this rate change on its deferred tax assets and liabilities in the period the tax rate change is enacted.  As a result, the Company has concluded this will cause the Company's net deferred taxes to be remeasured at the new lower tax rate.  The Company maintains a full valuation allowance on its U.S. net deferred tax assets. Deferred tax asset remeasurement (tax expense) will be offset by a net decrease in valuation allowance, resulting in no impact on the Company's income tax expense.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses consist of costs incurred for direct and overhead-related research expenses and are expensed as incurred. Costs to acquire technologies, including licenses, that are utilized in research and development and that have no alternative future use are expensed when incurred. Technology developed for use in the Company’s product candidates is expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established.

Research and development costs for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017 were $267,794 and $427,670, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for only those awards ultimately expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, net of an estimated forfeiture rate. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the option's expected term and stock price volatility. In addition, judgment is also required in estimating the number of stock-based awards that are expected to be forfeited. Forfeitures are estimated based on historical experience at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of share-based payment awards represent management's best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management's judgment. Thus, if factors change and the Company uses different assumptions, its stock-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements. The Company maintains most of its cash balance at a financial institution located in California. Accounts at this institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. Uninsured balances aggregated approximately $1,435,000 and $772,000 at July 31, 2018 and April 30, 2018, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. Management believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company translates the financial statements of its foreign subsidiary from the local (functional) currencies to U.S. dollars in accordance with FASB ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters. All assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated at year-end exchange rates, while revenue and expenses are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the year. Adjustments for foreign currency translation fluctuations are excluded from net loss and are included in other comprehensive income. Gains and losses on short-term intercompany foreign currency transactions are recognized as incurred.

Going Concern

The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of July 31, 2018, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $97,179,506 and incurred a net loss for the three months ended July 31, 2018 of $1,215,363. The Company requires substantial additional capital to finance its planned business operations and expects to incur operating losses in future periods due to the expenses related to the Company’s core businesses. The Company has not realized any revenue since it commenced doing business in the biotechnology sector, and there can be no assurance that it will be successful in generating revenues in the future in this sector. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Over the past year, funding was provided by investors to maintain and expand the Company’s operations. Sales of the Company’s common stock were made under the initial Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed on October 17, 2014 (“First S-3”) allowing for offerings up to $50,000,000 and the second Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed on September 13, 2017 (“Second S-3”) allowing for offerings of up to $50,000,000 in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”) or transactions structured as a public offering of a distinct block or blocks (“Block Trades”) of the shares of the Company’s common stock. Over the past year, the Company continued to acquire funds through the Company’s First S-3 and Second S-3 pursuant to which the placement agent sells shares of common stock “at-the-market” in a program which is structured to provide up to $50 million dollars to the Company less certain commissions pursuant to the First S-3 and up to $25 million dollars to the Company less certain commissions pursuant to the Second S-3. From May 1, 2017 through July 31, 2018 the Company raised capital of approximately $4.2 million in “at-the-market” and Block Trade transactions. The Company plans to continue selling securities under the Second S-3 and has commitments for $1.5 million, which the Company expects to receive in 2018. Additionally, the Company has the ability to reduce the research and development expenses significantly should the funding be delayed.

Management determined that these plans alleviate substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company believes the cash on hand at July 31, 2018, the ability to use the Second S-3 to raise capital through at-the-market sales and Block Trades, sales of registered and unregistered shares of its common stock and any public offerings of common stock in which the Company may engage in will provide sufficient capital to meet the Company’s capital requirements and to fund the Company’s operations through September 30, 2019.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (“Topic 606”). Topic 606 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition,” including most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. In addition, the amendments create a new Subtopic 340-40, “Other Assets and Deferred Costs—Contracts with Customers.” In summary, the core principle of Topic 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. For a public entity, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period; early application is not permitted. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue with Customers — Deferral of the Effective Date, as an amendment to ASU No. 2014-09, which defers the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 by one year. The adoption of this standard does not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as currently the Company does not generate revenue.

ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, allows the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous US GAAP. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases are similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases in the previous leases guidance. The Update 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

ASU No, 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): - Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, was issued in June 2018. ASU 2018-07 simplifies the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. This pronouncement is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 but early adoption is permitted. The Company is still evaluating the effect of this update.

The Company does not anticipate any material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements upon the adoption of the following accounting pronouncements issued during 2016 and 2017: (i) ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities ; (ii) ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ; (iii) ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments ; (iv) ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash; and (v) ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.

COMMON STOCK TRANSACTIONS

NOTE 4 – COMMON STOCK TRANSACTIONS

A summary of the Company’s non-vested restricted stock activity and related weighted average grant date fair value information for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017 are as follows:

The Company awarded 6,600,000 shares of common stock to officers as part of their compensation agreements for 2017. These shares vest monthly over a twelve-month period and are subject to them continuing service under the agreements. During the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded a non-cash compensation expense in the amount of $0 and $171,600, respectively. As of July 31, 2018, there were no unvested shares.

STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

NOTE 5 – STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

Stock Options

As of July 31, 2018, the Company had 95,250,000 outstanding stock options to its directors and officers (collectively, “Employee Options”) and consultants (“Non-Employee Options”).

During the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company granted 0 and 2,450,000 Employee Options, respectively.

The fair value of the Employee Options at the date of grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model, based on the following weighted average assumptions:

	Three Months Ended July 31,
	2018		2017
Risk-free interest rate		–		2.0%
Expected volatility		–		107%
Expected lives (years)		–		2.5
Expected dividend yield		–		0.00%

During the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company granted Non-Employee Options of 0 and 4,200,000, respectively. The Non-Employee Options granted during the three months ended July 31, 2017 consisted of 4,200,000 guaranteed options and 0 non-guaranteed performance-based options.

The fair value of the Non-Employee Options was estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model, based on the following weighted average assumptions:

	Three Months Ended July 31,
	2018		2017
Risk-free interest rate		2.8%		1.8%
Expected volatility		98%		108%
Expected lives (years)		4.0		5.0
Expected dividend yield		0.00%		0.00%

The Company’s computation of expected volatility is based on the historical daily volatility of its publicly traded stock. For stock option grants issued during the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company used a calculated volatility for each grant. The Company lacks adequate information about the exercise behavior now and has determined the expected term assumption under the simplified method provided for under ASC 718, which averages the contractual term of the Company’s stock options of five years with the average vesting term of two and one-half years for an average of three years. The dividend yield assumption of zero is based upon the fact the Company has never paid cash dividends and presently has no intention of paying cash dividends. The risk-free interest rate used for each grant is equal to the U.S. Treasury rates in effect at the time of the grant for instruments with a similar expected life.

Non-Employee Option grants that do not vest immediately upon grant are recorded as an expense over the vesting period. At the end of each financial reporting period, the value of these options, as calculated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model, is determined, and compensation expense recognized or recovered during the period is adjusted accordingly. As a result, the amount of the future compensation expense is subject to adjustment until the Non-Employee Options are fully vested.

A summary of the Company’s stock option activity and related information for the three months ended July 31, 2018 are shown below:

	Options		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value per Share

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

INCOME TAXES

NOTE 9 - INCOME TAXES

The Company had no income tax expense for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. During the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had a net operating loss (“NOL”) for each period which generated deferred tax assets for NOL carryforwards. The Company provided valuation allowances against the net deferred tax assets including the deferred tax assets for NOL carryforwards. Valuation allowances provided for the net deferred tax asset increased by approximately $301,000 and $565,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

There was no material difference between the effective tax rate and the projected blended statutory tax rate for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017.

In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considered whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all the deferred asset will not be realized. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Based on the available objective evidence, including the history of operating losses and the uncertainty of generating future taxable income, management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets at July 31, 2018 will not be fully realizable. Accordingly, management has maintained a valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets at July 31, 2018.

The Tax Act was enacted on December 22, 2017. The Tax Act reduces the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%, requires companies to pay a one-time transition tax on earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that were previously tax deferred and creates new taxes on certain foreign sourced earnings. The Company is applying the guidance in SAB 118 when accounting for the enactment-date effects of the Tax Act. The Company’s accounting for the Tax Act is incomplete, as noted at year-end. However, the Company is able to reasonably estimate certain effects and, therefore, recorded provisional adjustments at April 30, 2018 associated with the reduction of the US federal corporate tax rate. During the quarter ended July 31, 2018, the Company recognized no adjustments to the provisional amounts recorded at April 30, 2018 and has not completed the Company’s accounting for all of the tax effects of the Tax Act. The Company is awaiting further guidance from U.S. federal and state regulatory bodies with regards to the final accounting and reporting of these items in the several jurisdictions where the Company files tax returns. In all cases the Company will continue to make and refine its calculations as additional analysis is completed. The Company’s estimates may also be affected as it gains a more thorough understanding of the tax law.

The Company’s policy is to recognize any interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. As of the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company had accrued no interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

See Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2018 for additional information regarding income taxes.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

EARNINGS PER SHARE

NOTE 10 – EARNINGS PER SHARE

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares and potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would be outstanding if the potentially dilutive securities had been issued. Potential common shares outstanding principally include stock options and warrants. During the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company incurred losses. Accordingly, the effect of any common stock equivalent would be anti-dilutive during those periods and are not included in the calculation of diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding.

The table below sets forth the basic loss per share calculations:

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)

3 Months Ended

Jul. 31, 2018

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The Company operates independently and through four wholly-owned subsidiaries: (i) Bio Blue Bird; (ii) PharmaCyte Biotech Europe Limited; (iii) PharmaCyte Biotech Australia Pty. Ltd.; and (iv) Viridis Biotech, Inc. and are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and the rules and regulations of the Commission. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated. The Company’s 14.5% investment in SG Austria is presented on the cost method of accounting.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates these estimates including those related to fair values of financial instruments, intangible assets, fair value of stock-based awards, income taxes and contingent liabilities, among others. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions, which could have a material effect on the reported amounts of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position and results of operations.

Intangible Assets

Intangible Assets

The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") standard on goodwill and other intangible assets prescribes a two-step process for impairment testing of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles, which is performed annually, as well as when an event triggering impairment may have occurred. The first step tests for impairment, while the second step, if necessary, measures the impairment. The Company has elected to perform its annual analysis at the end of its reporting year.

The Company’s intangible assets are licensing agreements related to the Cell-in-a-Box^® technology for $1,549,427 and diabetes license for $2,000,000 for an aggregate total of $3,549,427.

These intangible assets have an indefinite life; therefore, they are not amortizable.

The Company concluded that there was no impairment of the carrying value of the intangibles for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be fully recoverable. If the estimated future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) from the use of an asset are less than carrying value, a write-down would be recorded to reduce the related asset to its estimated fair value. No impairment was identified or recorded during the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017.

Fair value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

For certain of the Company’s non-derivative financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, the carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for current liabilities qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

· Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

· Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

· Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The Company follows ASC subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures and ASC subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments, which permit entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Neither of these statements had an impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The carrying value of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, as reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

Deferred taxes are calculated using the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards, 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 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.

A valuation allowance is provided for deferred income tax assets when, in management’s judgment, based upon currently available information and other factors, it is more likely than not that all or a portion of such deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The determination of the need for a valuation allowance is based on an on-going evaluation of current information including, among other things, historical operating results, estimates of future earnings in different taxing jurisdictions and the expected timing of the reversals of temporary differences. The Company believes the determination to record a valuation allowance to reduce a deferred income tax asset is a significant accounting estimate because it is based on, among other things, an estimate of future taxable income in the U.S. and certain other jurisdictions, which is susceptible to change and may or may not occur, and because the impact of adjusting a valuation allowance may be material. In determining when to release the valuation allowance established against the Company’s net deferred income tax assets, the Company considers all available evidence, both positive and negative. Consistent with the Company’s policy, and because of the Company’s history of operating losses, the Company does not currently recognize the benefit of all its deferred tax assets, including tax loss carry forwards, which may be used to offset future taxable income. The Company continually assesses its ability to generate sufficient taxable income during future periods in which deferred tax assets may be realized. When the Company believes it is more likely than not that it will recover its deferred tax assets, the Company will reverse the valuation allowance as an income tax benefit in the statements of operations.

The U.S. GAAP method of accounting for uncertain tax positions utilizes a two-step approach to evaluate tax positions. Step one, recognition, requires evaluation of the tax position to determine if based solely on technical merits it is more likely than not to be sustained upon examination. Step two, measurement, is addressed only if a position is more likely than not to be sustained. In step two, the tax benefit is measured as the largest amount of benefit, determined on a cumulative probability basis, which is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement with tax authorities. If a position does not meet the more likely than not threshold for recognition in step one, no benefit is recorded until the first subsequent period in which the more likely than not standard is met, the issue is resolved with the taxing authority or the statute of limitations expires. Positions previously recognized are derecognized when the Company subsequently determines the position no longer is more likely than not to be sustained. Evaluation of tax positions, their technical merits and measurements using cumulative probability are highly subjective management estimates. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act” (“Tax Act”), which made significant changes to U.S. federal income tax law affecting the Company. Set forth below is a discussion of certain provisions of the Tax Act and the Company's assessment of the impact of such provisions on its financials.

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company's U.S. income will be taxed at a 21 percent (subject to IRC Section 15 blended rate provisions) down from the 35 percent federal corporate rate. ASC 740-10-25-47 requires the Company to recognize the effect of this rate change on its deferred tax assets and liabilities in the period the tax rate change is enacted.  As a result, the Company has concluded this will cause the Company's net deferred taxes to be remeasured at the new lower tax rate.  The Company maintains a full valuation allowance on its U.S. net deferred tax assets. Deferred tax asset remeasurement (tax expense) will be offset by a net decrease in valuation allowance, resulting in no impact on the Company's income tax expense.

Research and Development

Research and Development

Research and development expenses consist of costs incurred for direct and overhead-related research expenses and are expensed as incurred. Costs to acquire technologies, including licenses, that are utilized in research and development and that have no alternative future use are expensed when incurred. Technology developed for use in the Company’s product candidates is expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established.

Research and development costs for the three months ended July 31, 2018 and 2017 were $267,794 and $427,670, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense for only those awards ultimately expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, net of an estimated forfeiture rate. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the option's expected term and stock price volatility. In addition, judgment is also required in estimating the number of stock-based awards that are expected to be forfeited. Forfeitures are estimated based on historical experience at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of share-based payment awards represent management's best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management's judgment. Thus, if factors change and the Company uses different assumptions, its stock-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements. The Company maintains most of its cash balance at a financial institution located in California. Accounts at this institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. Uninsured balances aggregated approximately $1,435,000 and $772,000 at July 31, 2018 and April 30, 2018, respectively. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. Management believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.

Foreign Currency Translation

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company translates the financial statements of its foreign subsidiary from the local (functional) currencies to U.S. dollars in accordance with FASB ASC 830, Foreign Currency Matters. All assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated at year-end exchange rates, while revenue and expenses are translated at average exchange rates prevailing during the year. Adjustments for foreign currency translation fluctuations are excluded from net loss and are included in other comprehensive income. Gains and losses on short-term intercompany foreign currency transactions are recognized as incurred.

Going Concern

Going Concern

The Company's condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of July 31, 2018, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $97,179,506 and incurred a net loss for the three months ended July 31, 2018 of $1,215,363. The Company requires substantial additional capital to finance its planned business operations and expects to incur operating losses in future periods due to the expenses related to the Company’s core businesses. The Company has not realized any revenue since it commenced doing business in the biotechnology sector, and there can be no assurance that it will be successful in generating revenues in the future in this sector. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Over the past year, funding was provided by investors to maintain and expand the Company’s operations. Sales of the Company’s common stock were made under the initial Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed on October 17, 2014 (“First S-3”) allowing for offerings up to $50,000,000 and the second Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed on September 13, 2017 (“Second S-3”) allowing for offerings of up to $50,000,000 in transactions that are deemed to be “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”) or transactions structured as a public offering of a distinct block or blocks (“Block Trades”) of the shares of the Company’s common stock. Over the past year, the Company continued to acquire funds through the Company’s First S-3 and Second S-3 pursuant to which the placement agent sells shares of common stock “at-the-market” in a program which is structured to provide up to $50 million dollars to the Company less certain commissions pursuant to the First S-3 and up to $25 million dollars to the Company less certain commissions pursuant to the Second S-3. From May 1, 2017 through July 31, 2018 the Company raised capital of approximately $4.2 million in “at-the-market” and Block Trade transactions. The Company plans to continue selling securities under the Second S-3 and has commitments for $1.5 million, which the Company expects to receive in 2018. Additionally, the Company has the ability to reduce the research and development expenses significantly should the funding be delayed.

Management determined that these plans alleviate substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company believes the cash on hand at July 31, 2018, the ability to use the Second S-3 to raise capital through at-the-market sales and Block Trades, sales of registered and unregistered shares of its common stock and any public offerings of common stock in which the Company may engage in will provide sufficient capital to meet the Company’s capital requirements and to fund the Company’s operations through September 30, 2019.

Recent accounting pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (“Topic 606”). Topic 606 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition,” including most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. In addition, the amendments create a new Subtopic 340-40, “Other Assets and Deferred Costs—Contracts with Customers.” In summary, the core principle of Topic 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. For a public entity, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period; early application is not permitted. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue with Customers — Deferral of the Effective Date, as an amendment to ASU No. 2014-09, which defers the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 by one year. The adoption of this standard does not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as currently the Company does not generate revenue.

ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, allows the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous US GAAP. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases are similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases in the previous leases guidance. The Update 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

ASU No, 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): - Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, was issued in June 2018. ASU 2018-07 simplifies the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. This pronouncement is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 but early adoption is permitted. The Company is still evaluating the effect of this update.

The Company does not anticipate any material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements upon the adoption of the following accounting pronouncements issued during 2016 and 2017: (i) ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities ; (ii) ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments ; (iii) ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments ; (iv) ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash; and (v) ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.
