ITEM 1.   DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

The Industry

The biotechnology industry focuses on developing breakthrough products and technologies to combat various types of diseases through efficient industrial manufacturing process. Such industry is an important business sector in the world's economies and plays a key role in human health. Biotechnology companies generally require large amounts of capital investment for their Research & Development activities.  It may take up to tens of years to develop and commercialize a new drug or a new medical device. American BriVision (Holding) Corporation (“we” or the “Company”) is an early stage biotechnology company with a pipeline of six new drugs and one medical device under development, all of which are licensed from related parties of the Company.

Business Overview

We are a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on utilizing our licensed technology to (i) further the development of pharmaceutical products with focuses on cancer and central nervous system indications, (ii) target patients that may potentially respond to such pharmaceutical products and (iii) obtain regulatory approvals for and commercialize such pharmaceutical products in various markets. Our business model includes the following steps and stages: 1) engaging medical research institutions, such as Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (“MSKCC”) and MD Anderson Cancer Center, to conducting clinical trials of translational medicine for Proof of Concept (“POC”) on behalf of the Company; 2) retaining ownership of the research results by the Company, and 3) out-licensing the research results and data to pharmaceutical companies who will develop the products. We currently have no revenue generated from clinical research and development of six new drugs and one medical device, which is our primary business operations. Currently, we concentrate on the research and development of six compounds licensed to us by BioLite Inc. (“BioLite”), a company formed in Taiwan who is one of our principal shareholders. The six compounds are ABV- 1501  Triple Negative Breast Cancer, ABV-1502  Solid Tumor with Anti-PD1, ABV-1503  Combination therapy for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, ABV-1504  Major Depressive Disorder, ABV-1505  Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Maitake Combination Therapy. In addition, we are licensed to research and develop a medical device, BFC-1401 Vitreous Substitute for Vitrectomy, a new medical device licensed from BioFirst Corporation, (“BioFirst”). BioFirst is a related party of the Company because a control beneficiary shareholder of YuanGene Corporation and the Company is one of the directors and primary shareholder of BioFirst.

Collaboration Agreement with BioLite

On December 29, 2015, American BriVision Corporation (“BriVision”), a Delaware corporation and our wholly owned subsidiary, entered into a Collaboration Agreement with BioLite pursuant to which BioLite granted BriVision the sole licensing rights to research and develop, for therapeutic purposes in the territories of the United States and Canada (collectively the “North America Region”), the following products (the “Products”): BLI-1005 CNS-Major Depressive Disorder; BLI-1008 CNS-Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder; BLI-1401-1 Anti-Tumor Combination Therapy-Solid Tumor with Anti-PD-1; BLI-1401-2 Anti-Tumor Combination Therapy-Triple Negative Breast Cancer; and BLI-1501 Hematology-Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. BioLite and our company are related parties as Eugene Jiang is our Chairman of the Board and a director of BioLite.

The material terms of the Collaboration Agreement are as follows:

● BriVision is responsible to make up-front, milestone and royalty payments to BioLite, as further described below.

● BioLite owns all files, data, confidential and non-public information, including, without limitation, all IND packages and clinical study reports, regarding the Compounds (collectively, the “Compound IP”), to the extent that the Compound IP were and are developed in Taiwan, and BriVision owns all Compound IP to the extent they are developed in the North America Region. BioLite grants an exclusive license to its Compound IP to BriVision for the purpose of further development and commercialization of the Products in the North America Region. BioLite and BriVision share the responsibility of preparing for clinical trials by delivering Compound IP and preparing related materials.

● BriVision is and has been responsible for all clinical trial expenses incurred in the North America Region.  BioLite paid all clinical trial expenses for trials conducted in Taiwan as of the date of this annual report on Form 10-K.

● The Collaboration Agreement will remain in effect for fifteen years from the date of first commercial sale of the Product in the North America Region. Either party may terminate upon thirty days’ prior written notice for breach or insolvency.

● BriVision agreed to pay to BioLite an aggregate of up to One Hundred Million Dollars ($100,000,000) (the “Aggregate Amount”) in milestone payments during the term of the agreement, payable in cash or the Company or its parent company’s equity. A certain percentage of the Aggregate Amount will be paid to BioLite upon completion of each milestone by BioLite as set forth in the Collaboration Agreement. An upfront payment of $3,500,000 (the “Milestone Payment”), or 3.5% of the Aggregate Amount, was due under the Collaboration Agreement. On May 6, 2016, BriVision and Biolite amended the payment terms under the Collaboration Agreement by entering into a Milestone Payment Agreement, pursuant to which we paid BioLite $2,600,000 in cash and $900,000 in newly issued shares of our common stock, based on a price of $1.60 per share, for an aggregate number of 562,500 shares.

● Milestones shall be reached upon BioLite’s submissions of IND and NDAs for the Products, and completion of various phases in the application processes, as set forth in the Collaboration Agreement.

● In addition to the Aggregate Amount, BriVision will pay BioLite five percent (5%) of net sales of Products in the North America Region when any of the Products are approved for marketing and sales in such Region.

2

On January 12, 2017, we entered into an Addendum (the “Addendum”) to the Collaboration Agreement dated December 29, 2015 and as amended May 6, 2016. Pursuant to the Addendum, BioLite agreed to license us to research and develop an additional new drug, “Maitake Combination Therapy” (the “Sixth Product”) worldwide. The ownership of any clinical trial data and Intellectual Property as defined in the Collaboration Agreement shall belong to us. We shall pay for all clinical trials and other expenses associated with all clinical trials and shall have the right to sublicense Five Products in the North America Region and the Sixth Product worldwide. There is no additional Milestone Payments as defined in paragraph 3 of the Collaboration Agreement that needs to be made now or in the future with respect to the Sixth Product. In the event that BioLite is obligated to pay its licensor in excess of 3% of the net sales, BioLite and us shall renegotiate and increase the Royalty Charge to a percentage to be later agreed upon as opposed to the original amount of 5% of the net sales as defined in paragraph 4 of the Collaboration Agreement.

Our Compounds Licensed from BioLite

We currently are granted from BioLite the sole licensing rights to develop six compounds for therapeutic purposes. Below is the description of each of the six compounds.

I. ABV- 1501  Triple Negative Breast Cancer - Combination therapy for Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC)

● ABV- 1501 is developed from BLI-1401-2 whose active pharmaceutical ingredient is Yukiguni Maitake Extract 404. MSKCC conducted the Phase I clinical trial of a polysaccharide extract from Grifola frondosa (Maitake mushroom), which is very similar to Yukiguni Maitake Extract 404.  The Phase I trial focused on Grifola frondosa extract’s immunological effects on breast cancer patients. The results of the Phase I trial showed that oral administration of a polysaccharide extract from Maitake mushroom is associated with both immunologically stimulatory and inhibitory measurable effects in peripheral blood.  

● Our Investigational New Drug (“IND”) application of ABV-1501 for the Phase II clinical trials referenced with MSKCC Maitake and such Phase II IND was approved in March 2016 by the U.S. FDA.

● We are currently speaking with a medical center located in California, United States with respect to potential cooperation opportunities on ABV-1501’s Phase II clinical study.

II. ABV-1502  Solid Tumor with Anti-PD1 - Combination therapy for solid tumors with Anti-PD1

● In addition to ABV-1501, we plan to develop ABV-1501 for the potential treatment of solid tumor with anti-PD1, which is also derived from Maitake mushroom extract.  

● Currently, we are coordinating with a U.S. health center to prepare the Phase I IND package for ABV-1502. 

3

As stated above, ABV-1501 and ABV-1502 share the same Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient, Maitake mushroom extract. IND and study details are as follows:

● During the Phase I/II clinical trial of Maitake mushroom extract, a total of 34 eligible study subjects were enrolled from March 2004 to January 2007. The primary endpoints were safety and tolerability. The test drug was orally administrated and a polysaccharide extract from Maitake mushroom was associated with both immunologically stimulatory and inhibitory measurable effects in peripheral blood. The IND number is 68853 and MSKCC received filing confirmation from the FDA on Jan 22, 2004.

Generally, Phase I clinical trials are performed with healthy subjects to test for safety and Phase II clinical trials are performed with patient subjects for efficacy as well as safety. However, trials of cancer-related drugs must involve subjects with the targeted cancer, and as such, Phase I/II studies involving cancer patients include primary endpoints of safety and tolerability and a secondary endpoint of efficacy.

III. ABV-1503  Combination therapy for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)

● We are currently preparing the IND package for the Phase II clinical study of Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) for CLL. BioLite is preparing the Compound IP for the Chemistry, Manufacture, and Control (CMC) part of the IND. We and MSKCC are collaborating to design the protocols for the clinical trials and the IRB documents. The trial period, test subject number, primary and secondary endpoint and method of administration have not been decided yet, and are still being negotiated between us and MSKCC.

● We are cooperating with MSKCC to prepare a clinical trial agreement once the IND of ABV-1503 is approved by the U.S. FDA.

IV. ABV-1504  Major Depressive Disorder - Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) 

● This is Polygala extract for the potential treatment of Major Depressive Disorder

● BioLite performed Phase I clinical trial of ABV-1504 and has obtained US FDA Phase II Part One/Part Two IND approval. The results of Phase II Part One clinical trial of ABV-1504 are described below.

 ● We started the Phase II Part Two clinical trial of ABV-1504 in the third quarter of 2016 and the study is being conducted in the following sites in Taiwan: Taipei Veterans General Hospital, Linkou Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Taipei City Hospital (Songde Branch), Tri-Service General Hospital and Wan Fang Hospital. We plan to commence such clinical trial at Stanford University in the United States soon.

V. ABV-1505  Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (“ADHD”)

● This is a Polygala extract for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.

● BioLite has obtained U.S. FDA approval for our IND application of Phase II study of ABV-1505  on January 25, 2016, and is currently negotiating with qualified  medical sites and research institutions for Phase II clinical trials.

4

ABV-1504 and ABV-1505 have the same Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient: the extract of Radix Polygalae (Polygala tenuifolia Willd/PDC-1421 Capsule).

● A Phase II Study of PDC-1421 Capsule to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy in Patients with Major Depressive Disorder

IND Number: 112567

Primary Study Objective: To assess the efficacy profile of PDC-1421 Capsule in major depressive disorder with Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS).

Secondary Study Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety profile

Study period: 2 years.

Total 72 study subjects will be enrolled.

Study site: There are five sites in Taiwan and one site in US (Stanford University, currently preparing for IRB approval and Clinical Trial Agreement.)

Sponsor: BioLite, Inc.

For ABV-1504 Phase II part one---total subject: 12, trial period: 2/11/2016-7/14/2016, administered route: oral, test results are as follows:

Trial Progress Report:

1. Part I trial has been completed with 12 subjects (screening: 14, enrolling: 12). The six subjects were in the Part I high dosage group.

2. Under the suicide risk assessment (C-SSRS) Subject X indicated that the suicidal ideation scores were 4 for both Visit 7 and Visit 8. The PI confirmed that the subject had external pressures (moving, etc.), which produced constant suicidal thoughts, and such observation was reflected in Dr. A’s (PI) evaluation. The subject expressed his/her intention to stay positive in a counseling session, and the subject was contacted by a researcher (Research Nurse) after leaving the facility. After reviewing by the researcher, a justification was made that the suicidal behavior was irrelevant to the drug administered.

3. Clinical data of the six high-dosage administered subjects with data exceeding normal value:

    - NCS- Non-Clinical Significant judged by PI. CS: Clinical Significant judged by PI.

    -After data safety review board carefully reviewed, they agree to proceed to part two clinical trial.

For ABV-1504 Phase II part two: this phase currently is conducted in 5 clinical sites in Taiwan (started in Q3 2016) and one US site is under IRB review.

For “A Dose Escalation Phase I Study of PDC-1421 Capsule Targeting in Depression:” Trial period: 11/13/2012-7/5/2013, final report date 11/12/2013. Enroll subject: 30, 23 PDC-1421, 7 placebo control.

Study Conclusions:

“(1) No subject had serious adverse event and no subject discontinued due to adverse event;

(2) No clinically significant findings were observed in physical examinations; vital signs, electrocardiograms, laboratory measurements, and C-SSRS were observed throughout the treatment period;

(3) The oral administration of PDC-1421 in healthy volunteers was safe and well-tolerated for the dose from 380 mg to 3800 mg”.

For “A Phase II Study of PDC-1421 Capsule to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy in Patients with Major Depressive Disorder”:

Part One- study period 2/11/2016-7/12/2016. Total subject: 12.

We purchase the extract of Radix Polygalae (Polygala tenuifolia Willd/PDC-1421 Capsule) from Herng Fa Fa Pharmaceutical Technology, and have Industrial Technology Research Institute (“ITRI”) process such extract. There are no limits on availability to us on any of these ingredients.

Collaboration Agreement with BioFirst

On July 24, 2017, BriVision, one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries entered into a collaboration agreement (the “BioFirst Agreement”) with BioFirst Corporation (“BioFirst”), a corporation incorporated under the laws of Taiwan, pursuant to which BioFirst granted BriVision the global license to co-develop BFC-1401 Vitreous Substitute for Vitrectom (“BFC-1401”) for medical purposes. BioFirst is a related party to the Company because BioFirst and Yuangene Corporation (“Yuangene”), the Company’s controlling shareholder, are under common control of the controlling beneficiary shareholder of Yuangene.

According to the BioFirst Agreement, we co-develop and commercialize BFC-1401 with BioFirst and are obligated to pay BioFirst $3,000,000 (the “Total Payment”) in cash or common stock of the Company on or before September 30, 2018 in two installments. An upfront payment of $300,000, representing 10% of the Total Payment due under the Collaboration Agreement, was paid upon execution of the Collaboration Agreement. The Company is entitled to receive 50% of the future net licensing income or net sales profit when BFC-1401 is sublicensed or commercialized. For more information about the BioFirst Agreement, please refer to the current report on Form 8-K filed on July 24, 2017.  

Co-development Agreement with Rgene

On May 26, 2017, BriVision entered into a co-development agreement (the “Co-Dev Agreement”) with Rgene Corporation, a corporation incorporated under the laws of Taiwan (“Rgene”), to co-develop and commercialize in the global markets three new drug products that are included in the Sixth Product as defined in the Addendum. The three drugs licensed to Rgene are ABV-1507 HER2/neu Positive Breast Cancer Combination Therapy, ABV-1511 Pancreatic Cancer Combination Therapy and ABV-1527 Ovary Cancer Combination Therapy.

Pursuant to the Co-Dev Agreement, Rgene should pay to the Company $3,000,000 in cash or stock of Rgene with equivalent value by August 15, 2017 in three installments. The payment is for the compensation of BriVision’s past research efforts and contributions made by BriVision before the Co-Dev Agreement was signed and it does not relate to any future commitments made by BriVision and Rgene in this Co-Dev Agreement. Besides $3,000,000, the Company is entitled to receive 50% of the future net licensing income or net sales profit earned by Rgene, if any, and any development cost shall be equally shared by both BriVision and Rgene.

On June 1, 2017, the Company has delivered all research, technical, data and development data to Rgene. Because both Rgene and the Company are related parties and under common control by a controlling beneficiary shareholder of Yuangene Corporation and the Company, the Company has recorded the full amount of $3,000,000 in connection with the Co-Dev Agreement as additional paid-in capital during the year ended September 30, 2017. As of the date of this report, the Company has received $450,000 in cash. For more information about the Co-Dev Agreement, please refer to the current report on Form 8-K we filed on May 30, 2017.

As of date of this report, no net licensing income and/or net sales profit has occurred.

Market Opportunity and Growth Strategy/Business Plan

ABVC focuses on the development of new drugs and innovative medical devices to fulfill unmet medical needs. The business model of ABVC includes integrating research achievements from world-renowned medical research institutions, such as MSKCC and MD Anderson Cancer Center, conducting clinical trials of translational medicine for proof of concept (“POC”), out-licensing to international pharmaceutical companies and indirectly getting involved in the global market opportunities. In the United States, any qualified clinic can conduct clinical trials. We currently strive to continue collaborating with top medical research institutions. However, if for any reason we cannot maintain the collaboration with any of such medical centers, we will seek to select qualified clinics to further develop our new drug and medical device products in the pipeline. Our primary goal is to pursue collaborations with top medical centers.

Our business plan is to conduct and complete Phase II clinical trials for all of our products in the pipeline in the US and/or Canada. If we obtain satisfactory results in the Phase II clinical trial for any such compounds or BFC-1401, we will seek strategic partners to out-license any such compounds tor BFC-1401 to established pharmaceutical companies for further development. Furthermore, we will continue to search for potential products (drugs or medical devices) worldwide to expand our product pipeline for their research and development in North America.

6

The competitive advantages of our business model include:

1. Once we successfully complete POC of any product in the pipeline, we will seek strategic partners, such as respected pharmaceutical companies in the United States and boutique qualified clinics, to co-develop such mature product. In consideration for our licensing of the mature product, we expect to receive capital which we plan to use for our research and development of other products in the pipeline or selection of other new drugs or medical devices.

2. Sublicensing our products that pass Phase II clinic trials to other pharmaceutical companies saves us the time and resources to conduct Phase III clinical trials and provides a quicker return on our investment in our products.

3. We have six new drug products related to central nervous system and cancers and one new medical device for vitreous substitutes under development. This development portfolio diversifies our research risks by focusing on three different medical fields.

We are currently negotiating with potential medical center partners regarding conducting clinical trials on certain compounds in our pipeline. Furthermore, certain international pharmaceutical companies have contacted us to express their interest in certain of our licensed compounds. However, we cannot provide any assurance that we will find a qualified medical center to conduct clinical trials of any of our new drug products or enter into a definitive licensing agreement with any pharmaceutical companies.

In accordance with the Collaboration Agreement with BioLite and Addendum and pursuant to existing practice, we own all intellectual property rights to the six products developed in Canada and the U.S. BioLite owns all intellectual property developed with respect to the six products developed outside Canada and the U.S. We have the right to sublicense our intellectual property to develop such products in Canada and the U.S.

Currently, we are in the process of developing seven products and will continue searching for other new drug candidates and medical device candidates for further development and ultimate licensing for Phase III development by the sub-licensees.

Government Regulation

Regulations by governmental authorities in the U.S. and other countries are a significant factor in developing manufacturing and marketing of our pharmaceutical products. The nature and extent to which such regulation applies to us may vary depending on the nature of our products. We anticipate that many, if not all, of our products will require regulatory approval by governmental agencies prior to commercialization. Our products are subject to rigorous pre-clinical testing and clinical trials and other approval procedures of the FDA, and similar regulatory authorities in Europe and other countries. Various governmental statutes and regulations also govern or influence clinical trials, Chemistry, Manufacture and Control (CMC) related to such products and their marketing. The approval process and subsequent compliance with related statutes and regulations require substantial time and capital commitment, and there can be no guarantee that approvals will be granted.

U.S. FDA Approval Process and other U.S. Regulatory Authorities

Prior to commencement of clinical studies, pre-clinical testing of new pharmaceutical products is generally conducted on animals in laboratories to evaluate the potential efficacy and safety of the new drug candidate. The results of these studies are submitted to the FDA as a part of an Investigational New Drug (“IND”) application, which must become effective before clinical trials. Typically, clinical trials involve a time-consuming and costly three-phase process. Phase I clinical trials are conducted on a small number of healthy human subjects to establish a safety pattern of drug distribution and metabolism within subjects’ bodies. Phase II clinical trials are conducted with groups of patients afflicted with the target disease that the new drug is designed to treat in order to determine preliminary efficacy, possible dosages and expanded evidence of safety. In some cases, an initial clinical trial is conducted on diseased patients to assess both preliminary efficacy and preliminary safety and patterns of drug metabolism and distribution, in which case such trial is referred to as a Phase I/II trial. Phase III clinical trials are large-scale, multi-center, comparative trials that are conducted on patients afflicted with a target disease in order to provide enough data to demonstrate the efficacy and safety required by the FDA. The FDA closely monitors the progress of each of the three phases of clinical testing; and may, at its discretion, re-evaluate, alter, suspend or terminate the testing based upon the data which have been accumulated to a point whereby the risk/benefit ratio of the new drug candidate is below a certain level. Monitoring of all aspects of the study to minimize risks is a continuing process. All adverse events must be reported to the FDA.

The results of the pre-clinical and clinical testing on a non-biologic drug and certain diagnostic drugs are submitted to the FDA in the form of a New Drug Application (“NDA”) for approval prior to commencement of commercial sales. In responding to an NDA, the FDA may grant marketing approval, request additional information or refuse to approve if the FDA determines that the application does not satisfy its regulatory approval criteria. There can be no assurance that approvals will be granted on a timely basis, if at all, for any of our proposed products.

We are also subject to various U.S. federal, state, local and international laws, regulations and recommendations relating to the treatment of oocyte donors, the manufacturing environment under which human cells for therapy are derived, safe working conditions, laboratory and manufacturing practices and the use and disposal of hazardous or potentially hazardous substances, including radioactive compounds and infectious disease agents. We cannot accurately predict the influence on our research operations caused by regulatory changes .

European and Other Regulatory Approval

Whether or not FDA approval has been obtained, approval of a product by comparable regulatory authorities in Europe and other countries will likely be necessary prior to commencement of marketing such product in such countries. The regulatory authorities in each country may impose their own requirements and may refuse to grant an approval, or may require additional data before approving it, even though the relevant product has been approved by the FDA or another authority. The regulatory authorities in the European Union (“EU”), Australia and other developed countries have lengthy approval processes for pharmaceutical products. The process for gaining an approval in a particular country may vary from the process in another country, but generally follows a similar sequence to that described for FDA approval. In Europe, the European Committee for Proprietary Medicinal Products provides a mechanism for EU-member states to exchange information on all aspects of product licensing. The EU has established a European agency for the evaluation of medical products, with both a centralized community procedure and a decentralized procedure, the latter being based on the principle of licensing within one member country followed by mutual recognition by the other member countries.

Employees

We have nine full-time employees and one consultant. None of our employees are represented by a labor organization and we consider our relationship with our employees to be good.

ITEM 1A.  RISK FACTORS

Discussion of our business and operations included in this Annual Report on Form 10–K should be read together with the risk factors set forth below. They describe various risks and uncertainties to which we are or may become subject. These risks and uncertainties, together with other factors described elsewhere in this report, have the potential to affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, strategies or prospects in a material and adverse manner. New risks may emerge at any time, and we cannot predict those risks or estimate the extent to which they may affect our financial performance. Each of the risks described below could adversely impact the value of our securities. These statements, like all statements in this report, speak only as of the date of this prospectus (unless another date is indicated), and we undertake no obligation to update or revise the statements in light of future developments.

Risks Relating to Our Business

We are a pre-revenue biopharmaceutical company and are thus subject to the risks associated with new businesses in that industry.

We acquired the sole licensing rights to develop and commercialize for therapeutic purposes six compounds and the right to co-develop with BioFirst a medical device (the “Pipeline Products”) recently during the period of January 2017 to July 2017. As such, we are a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company with no revenue-generating operations although we have licensed three new drug candidates to Rgene for further joint development. Our assets consist solely of the intellectual property and receivables from collaboration parties, which are related parties as well. Therefore, we are, and expect to be for a period of time, subject to all the risks and uncertainties inherent in a new business, in particular new businesses engaged in the development of pharmaceuticals. We are establishing and implementing many important functions necessary to operate a business, including the clinical research and development of the Pipieline Products, establishment of our managerial and administrative structure and implementation of our accounting systems and internal controls.

Accordingly, you should consider our prospects in light of the costs, uncertainties, delays and difficulties frequently encountered by pre-revenue stage companies in the pharmaceutical field. Potential investors should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties that a new company with a limited operating history faces. In particular, potential investors should consider that there are significant risks that we will not be able to:

● implement or execute our current business plan, or generate profits;

● attract and maintain a skillful management team;

● raise sufficient funds in the capital markets or otherwise to effectuate our business plan;

● determine that the processes and technologies that we have developed are commercially viable; and/or

● attract, enter into or maintain contracts with, potential commercial partners such as licensors of technology and suppliers.

11

If any of the above risks occurs, our business may fail, in which case you may lose the entire amount of your investment in the Company. To date, we are still setting up our pipeline products. We cannot assure that any of our efforts will be successful or result in the development or timely launch of new products, or ultimately produce any material revenue.

In addition, as a pre-revenue biopharmaceutical company, we need to transition at some point from a company with a research and development focus to a company capable of supporting commercial activities. We may not be able to reach such transition point or make such a transition, which would have a material adverse effect on our company.

If we fail to raise additional capital, our ability to implement our business plan could be compromised.

We have limited capital resources and operations. To date, our operations have been funded partially from equity and debt financings from our shareholders or our management.

If we do not raise a sufficient amount to fund our ongoing development activities, it is likely that we will be unable to carry out our business. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Even if we obtain financing for our near term operations and product development, we may require additional capital beyond the near term. If we are unable to raise capital when needed, our business, financial condition and results of operations will be materially adversely affected, and we will have to reduce or discontinue our operations.

We are highly dependent on our license agreement with BioLite, and the loss of which will materially impair our business plan and viability.

We have secured sole rights to develop and commercialize five products from BioLite in the North America Region and the Sixth Product worldwide. These six products are currently our only new drug candidates. As such, our Collaboration Agreement with BioLite is critical to our business. In the event that our Collaboration Agreement with BioLite is terminated involuntarily, we would lose the ability to develop and commercialize all the new drug products, and our business prospects would be materially damaged, which could lead to the loss of your investment.

We have no history in obtaining regulatory approval for, or commercializing, any new drug candidate.

As a newly-incorporated company, we have never obtained regulatory approval for, or commercialized, any new drug candidate. It is possible that the FDA may refuse to accept our planned New Drug Application (or NDA) for any of the six products for substantive review, or may conclude after review of our data that our application is insufficient to obtain regulatory approval of the new drug candidates. If the FDA does not accept or approve our planned NDA for our product candidates, it may require that we conduct additional clinical, preclinical or manufacturing validation studies, which may be costly. Depending on the FDA required studies, approval of any NDA or application that we submit may be significantly delayed, possibly for several years, or may require us to expend more resources than we have. Any delay in obtaining, or inability to obtain, regulatory approvals of any of our drug candidate will prevent us from sublicensing such product. It is also possible that additional studies, if performed and completed, may not be considered sufficient by the FDA. If any of these outcomes occurs, we may be forced to abandon our planned NDA for such drug candidate, which materially adversely affects our business and could potentially cause us to cease operations. We face similar regulatory risks in a foreign jurisdiction.

Dependence on Key Personnel.

Our success depend, to a large degree, upon the efforts and abilities of our officers and key employees. The loss of the services of one or more of our key employees could have a material adverse effect on our operations. In addition, as our business model is implemented, we will need to recruit and retain additional management and key employees in virtually all phases of our operations. Key employees will require a strong background in the pharmaceutical industry. We cannot assure that we are able to maintain a skillful management team as we have now and will be able to successfully attract more talented and experienced key employees in the future.

12

Our growth is dependent on our ability to successfully develop, acquire or license new drugs.

Our growth is supported by continuous investment in time, resources and capital to identify and develop new products or new formulations for the market via geographic expansion and market penetration. If we are unable to either develop new products on our own or acquire licenses for new products from third parties, our ability to grow revenues and market share will be adversely affected. In addition, we may not be able to recover our investment in the development of new drugs and medical devices, given that projects may be interrupted, unsuccessful, not as profitable as initially contemplated or we may not be able to obtain necessary financing for such development. Similarly, there is no assurance that we can successfully secure such rights from third parties on economically feasible terms.

We may not be able to develop our existing licensed compounds and our business plan is entirely dependent on entering into co-development agreements with qualified pharmaceutical companies for the development or commercialization of our product candidates.

There is no guarantee that any of our desired results will be realized by any of our licensed product candidates. We do not have the resources to independently develop the licensed compounds and we intend to enter into co-development agreements with qualified pharmaceutical companies for the development or commercialization of our product candidates. Currently we have one co-development agreement with Rgene which is a related party to the Company. We cannot provide assurance that we will enter into other co-development agreements respecting any of our drug candidates or on desirable terms. Failure to do so may materially affect our business operations and the Company’s ability to make profits.

Expansion of our business may put pressure on our management and the operational infrastructure, which could impede our ability to meet an increased demand for our products.

Our business plan is to develop new drugs and finish Phase II clinical trials for our drug candidates. We plan to license to established pharmaceutical companies or clinics the new drug candidates, which have passed Phase II trials, for the next stage development. The advantages are

Growth in our business may place a significant strain on our personnel, management, financial systems and other resources. If we are successful in obtaining rapid market growth of our products, we will be required to deliver large volumes of good-quality products and services on a timely basis at a reasonable cost to the customers. Meeting any such increased demands will require us to expand our manufacturing facilities, to increase our ability to purchase raw materials, to expand our work force, to expand our quality control capabilities and to increase the scale upon which we provide our products and services.  Such demands would require more working capital than we currently have and we may not be able to meet the needs of our customers, which could adversely affect our relationship with our customers and reduce our revenues.

Our growth strategy includes the pursuit of acquisitions, and new product development, which could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.

Our business strategy includes growth through strategic acquisitions, and the development of new products, medical devices and technologies, which will involve significant capital expenditure and risks. Innovative pharmaceutical development involves R&D costs, but it may achieve no tangible results and instead may adversely affect our future profitability. In addition, any business acquisition or combination that we consummate will likely involve, among other things, the payment of cash, the incurrence of contingent liabilities and the amortization of expenses related to goodwill and other intangible assets, and transaction costs, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects. Our ability to integrate and organize any new businesses and/or products, whether internally or externally, will likely require significant expansion of our operations. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain the necessary resources for such expansion, and the failure to do so could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.  In addition, future acquisitions or combinations by us involve risks of, among other things, entering into markets or segments in which we have no or limited experience, the potential loss of key employees, difficulty, delay or failure in the integration of the operations of any such new business with our current business, and operating and financial difficulties of any new operations, any of which could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.  Moreover, there can be no assurance that the anticipated benefits of any internally developed new business segment or business combination will be realized.

13

Our current products have certain side effects.  If the side effects associated with our current or future products are not identified prior to their marketing and sale, we may be required to withdraw such products from the market, perform lengthy additional clinical trials or change the labeling of our products, any of which could adversely impact our growth.

Side effects associated with ABV-1501 and ABV-1502 “Maitake mushroom extract” include nausea, joint swelling, rash, pruritus, eosinophilia, diarrhea, fainting, pain and/or bruising. Serious adverse events associated with this compound are listed below and further detailed here: https://clinicaltrials.gov/show/NCT01099917. Pruritus means itching (according to WebMD) and is defined as an unpleasant sensation that provokes the desire to scratch (according to Medscape). Eosinophilia is defined as an increase in peripheral blood eosinophilic leukocytes to more than 600 cells per microliter (μL) of blood. Emphasis is placed on the number of eosinophils circulating in the peripheral blood. Parasitic diseases and allergic reactions to medication are among the more common causes of eosinophilia. Eosinophils are derived from hematopoietic stem cells initially committed to the myeloid line and then to the basophil-eosinophil granulocyte lineage. Nonpathologic functions of eosinophils and the cationic enzymes of their granules include mediating parasite defense reactions, allergic response, tissue inflammation, and immune modulation. The foregoing information was collected from the Mayo Clinic and Medscape.

According to the MSKCC clinical trial on Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS), “Maitake mushroom extract,” only two patients withdrew prior to completion of the study due to grade I possibly related side effects: one reported nausea and joint swelling; the other withdrew reportedly due to a grade I allergic reaction (rash and pruritus). Other serious side events were not reported in the journal, as they were determined not relevant to this product after careful review by the principal investigator.

The following serious adverse events were observed in one out of twenty-one participants, or at a rate of 4.76%: Total, serious adverse events, Leukocytosis, Platelet count decreased, Eye disorders – Other, Abdominal pain, Gastrointestinal disorders – Other, Aphonia, Lung infection, Muscle weakness right-sided, Confusion, Edema cerebral, Stroke, Dyspnea, Wheezing and Pruritus (itching).

Side effects associated with ABV-1504 and ABV-1505 “Radix Polygalae (Polygala tenuifolia Willd/PDC-1421 Capsule)” may come from administration of the study medicine or examination procedure, such as the procedure of taking blood (fainting, pain and/or bruising). You may find other side effects in this paper: Preclinical evidence of rapid-onset antidepressant-like effect in Radix Polygalae extract.

According to the “Phase I Study of PDC-1421” “Radix Polygalae (Polygala tenuifolia Willd/PDC-1421 Capsule)” by BioLite, radix polygalae has no serious adverse effects but did have adverse events, but such adverse events may not be the result of a causal relationship with the study medication or clinical study.

● PDC-1421 was observed to be associated with some adverse effects in serum electrolytes and GI function, but none were clinically significant. Therefore, potential risks of PDC-1421 are fluctuated electrolyte levels and gastrointestinal discomfort. We monitored these in the Phase I study and there was no deviation of electrolyte level and no significant gastrointestinal discomfort during monitoring in the clinical trial. The cardiovascular systems will be monitored in the clinical study.

● WebMD warns that radix polygalae, when ingested on a long-term basis, can be unsafe, and that it is unsafe to ingest for pregnant women because it can cause miscarriages. Other adverse effects of radix polygalae described on medical education websites like WebMD and Medscape include nausea, vomiting and uterus contraction. None of the foregoing effects are applicable to our product candidate because the dosage of radix polygalae used in our product candidate is smaller than would be necessary to trigger these effects.

If significant side effects of our medicines are identified after they are marketed and sold:

1) regulatory authorities may withdraw or modify their approvals of such medicines;

2) we may be required to reformulate these medicines, change the ways in which they are marketed, conduct additional clinical trials, change the labeling of these medicines or implement changes to obtain new approvals for our manufacturing facilities;

3) we may have to recall these medicines from the market and may not be able to re-launch them;

4) we may experience a significant decline in sales of the affected products;

5) our reputation may suffer; and

6) We may become a target of lawsuits.

The occurrence of any of these events would harm our sales of these medicines and substantially increase the costs and expenses of marketing these medicines, which in turn could cause our revenues and net income to decline. In addition, the reputation and sales of our medicines could be adversely affected due to the severe side effects discovered.

15

We may be subject to product liability claims in the future, which could divert our resources, incur substantial liabilities and limit commercialization of any products that we may develop.

We face an inherent business risk of exposure to product liability claims in the event that the uses of our products are alleged to have caused adverse side effects. Side effects or marketing or manufacturing problems pertaining to any of our products could result in product liability claims or adverse publicity. These risks will exist for those products in clinical development and with respect to those products that receive regulatory approval for commercial sale.  Furthermore, although we have not historically experienced any problems associated with claims by users of our products, we do not currently maintain product liability insurance and there could be no assurance that we are able to acquire product liability insurance with terms that are commercially feasible.

We face an inherent risk of product liability claims as a result of the clinical testing of our products and potentially commercially selling any products that we may develop. For example, we may be sued if any product we develop allegedly causes injury or is found to be otherwise unsuitable during clinical testing, manufacturing, marketing or sale. Any such product liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defects in design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability or a breach of warranties. Claims could also be asserted under state consumer protection acts. If we cannot successfully defend ourselves against product liability claims, we may incur substantial liabilities or be required to limit commercialization of our product candidate. Regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, liability claims may result in:

● decreased demand for our product candidate or products that we may develop;

● injury to our reputation and significant negative media attention;

● withdrawal of clinical trial participants;

● significant costs to defend resulting litigation;

● substantial monetary awards to trial participants or patients;

● loss of revenue;

● reduced resources of our management to pursue our business strategy; and

● the inability to commercialize any products that we may develop.

We currently do not maintain general liability insurance; and even if we have a general liability insurance in the future this insurance may not fully cover potential liabilities that we may incur. The cost of any product liability litigation or other proceeding, even if resolved in our favor, could be substantial. We will need to increase our insurance coverage if and when we begin selling any product candidate that receives marketing approval. In addition, insurance coverage is becoming increasingly expensive. If we are unable to obtain or maintain sufficient insurance coverage at an acceptable cost or to otherwise protect against potential product liability claims, it could prevent or inhibit the development and commercial production and sale of our product candidates, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

If we are unable to keep up with rapid technological changes in our field or compete effectively, we will be unable to operate profitably.

We are engaged in a rapidly changing field. Other products of similar functions and targeted indications will compete with our new drug candidates. Most of our competing companies have significantly greater financial resources and expertise in discovery and development, manufacturing, preclinical and clinical testing, obtaining regulatory approvals and marketing. Certain medium and small companies may also be significant competitors, particularly through collaborative arrangements with established biopharmaceutical or biotechnology companies. Many of these competitors have products that have been approved or have sufficient capital to finance the discovery and development programs. Academic institutions, governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations also conduct research, seek patent protection and establish collaborative arrangements for therapeutic products and clinical development and marketing. These companies and institutions compete with us in recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel. In addition to the above factors, we will face competition based on product efficacy and safety, the timing and scope of regulatory approvals, availability of supply, marketing and sales capability, reimbursement coverage, price and patent position. There is no assurance that our competitors will not develop more effective or more affordable products, or achieve earlier patent protection or product commercialization, than our own.

16

Other companies may succeed in developing proof of concept (POC) earlier than us respecting similar new drug candidates, obtaining FDA approvals for such products more rapidly than we will. While we will seek to expand our technological capabilities in order to remain competitive, there can be no assurance that research and development by others will not render our technology or products obsolete or non-competitive or result in treatments or cures superior to any therapy we develop, or that any therapy we develop will be preferred to any existing or newly developed technologies.

We have conducted, and may in the future conduct, clinical trials for our certain new drug candidates at sites outside the United States, as a result of which the FDA may not accept data from trials conducted in such locations.

We have conducted and may in the future choose to conduct one or more clinical trials outside the United States. Although the FDA may accept data from clinical trials conducted outside the United States, acceptance of such data is subject to certain conditions imposed by the FDA. For example, the clinical trial must be well designed and conducted and performed by qualified investigators in accordance with ethical principles. The trial population must also adequately represent the U.S. population, and the data must be applicable to the U.S. population and U.S. medical practice in ways that the FDA deems clinically meaningful. Generally, the patient population for any clinical trials conducted outside of the United States must be representative of the population for whom we intend to seek approval in the United States. In addition, while these clinical trials are subject to the applicable local laws, FDA acceptance of the data will be dependent upon its determination that the trials also complied with all applicable U.S. laws and regulations. There can be no assurance that the FDA will accept data from trials conducted outside the United States. If the FDA does not accept the data from any of our clinical trials that we conduct outside the United States, it is likely to result in the need for additional trials, which are costly and time-consuming and delay or permanently halt our development of the new drug candidates.

In addition, the conduct of clinical trials outside the United States could have a significant impact on us. Risks inherent in conducting clinical trials outside the United States include:

● foreign regulatory requirements that could restrict or limit our ability to conduct our clinical trials;

● administrative burdens of conducting clinical trials under multiple foreign regulatory schema;

● foreign exchange fluctuations; and

● diminished protection of intellectual property in some countries.

If clinical trials of our product candidates fail to demonstrate safety and efficacy to the satisfaction of the FDA and comparable foreign regulators, we may incur additional costs or experience delays in completing, or ultimately be unable to complete the development and commercialization of our product candidates.

We are not permitted to commercialize, market, promote or sell any product candidate in the United States without obtaining marketing approval from the FDA. Comparable non-U.S. regulatory authorities impose similar restrictions. We may never receive such approvals. We must complete extensive preclinical development and clinical trials to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of our product candidate before we will be able to obtain these approvals.

17

Clinical testing is expensive, inherently uncertain, difficult to design and implement and can take many years to complete. Any inability to successfully complete preclinical and clinical development could result in additional costs to us and impair our ability to generate revenues from product sales, regulatory and commercialization milestones and royalties. In addition, if (1) we are required to conduct additional clinical trials or other testing of our product candidate beyond the trials and testing that we contemplate, (2) we are unable to successfully complete clinical trials of any of our product candidates or other testing, (3) the results of these trials or tests are unfavorable, uncertain or are only modestly favorable, or (4) there are unacceptable safety concerns associated with any of our product candidates, we, in addition to incurring additional costs, may:

● be delayed in obtaining marketing approval for our product candidates;

● not obtain marketing approval at all;

● obtain approval for indications or patient populations that are not as broad as we intended or desired;

● obtain approval with labeling that includes significant use or distribution restrictions or significant safety warnings, including boxed warnings;

● be subject to additional post-marketing testing or other requirements; or

● be required to remove the product from the market after obtaining marketing approval.

Even if any of our product candidates receives marketing approval, it may fail to achieve the degree of market acceptance by physicians, patients, third party payors and others in the medical community necessary for commercial success and the market opportunity for the product candidate may be smaller than we estimate.

We have never commercialized a new drug product. Even if our products are approved by the appropriate regulatory authorities for marketing and sale, they may nonetheless fail to gain sufficient market acceptance from physicians, patients, third party payors and others in the medical community. For example, doctors may be reluctant to recommend to their patients our new drugs even when our new drugs offer effective or convenient treatments. Further, patients often acclimate to the therapy that they are currently taking and do not want to switch therapies.

Efforts to educate the medical community and third party payors on the benefits of our new drug candidates may require significant resources and may not be successful. If our product candidates are approved but do not achieve an adequate level of market acceptance, we may not generate significant revenues and may not become profitable. The degree of market acceptance of our products, if approved for commercial sale, will depend on a number of factors, including:

● the efficacy and safety of our drug candidates;

● the potential advantages of our drug candidates compared to alternative treatments;

● the prevalence and severity of any side effects;

● the clinical indications for which our drug candidates are approved;

● whether our drug candidates are designated under physician treatment guidelines as a first-line therapy or as a second- or third-line therapy;

● limitations or warnings, including distribution or use restrictions, contained in our drug candidates approved for labeling;

● our ability to offer our drug candidates for sale at competitive prices;

● our ability to establish and maintain pricing sufficient to realize a meaningful return on our investment;

● our drug candidates’ convenience for administration compared to alternative treatments;

● the willingness of the target patient population to try, and of physicians to prescribe, our drug candidates;

● the strength of sales, marketing and distribution support;

● the approval of other new products for the same indications;

18

● changes in the standard of care for the targeted indications for our drug candidates;

● the timing of market introduction of our approved products as well as competitive products and other therapies;

● availability and amount of reimbursement from government payors, managed care plans and other third party payors;

● adverse publicity about the products or favorable publicity about competitive products; and

● potential product liability claims.

The potential market opportunities for our drug candidates are difficult to estimate. Our estimates of the potential market opportunities are predicated on many assumptions, including industry knowledge and publications, third party research reports and other surveys. While we believe that our internal assumptions are reasonable, these assumptions involve the exercise of significant judgment on the part of our management, are inherently uncertain and the reasonableness of these assumptions has not been assessed by an independent source. If any of the assumptions proves to be inaccurate, the actual markets for our new drug candidates could be smaller than our estimates of the potential market opportunities.

We rely on a limited number of suppliers to provide and process the raw materials for our drug candidates and the loss of any of our suppliers, or delays or problems in the supply of materials used in our products, could materially and adversely affect our operations.

We generally rely on a limited number of suppliers for most of the primary materials used in our products.  Our suppliers may not be able to supply the necessary materials without interruption and we may not have adequate remedies for such failure, which could result in a shortage of supply for our new drug candidates.  If one of our suppliers fails or refuses to supply us for any reason, it could take time and capital for us to obtain a new supplier.  In addition, our failure to maintain existing relationships with our suppliers or to establish new relationships in the future could negatively affect our ability to obtain the materials used in our products in a timely manner.  The search for new suppliers could potentially delay the manufacture of the new drug candidates for research and trials.  If any of our suppliers fails to comply with applicable legal requirements, such supplier will be subject to possible legal or regulatory action, which may adversely affect their ability to supply us with the raw or processed materials.  Any delay in supplying, or failure to supply, materials for our new drug candidates by any of our suppliers could result in our inability to meet the schedule for our research and development, and could adversely affect our business and operations.

We may seek to enter into collaborative relationships with third parties for the development and commercialization of our product candidates. If we fail to enter into such collaborations, or such collaborations are not successful, we may not be able torealize profits from our drug candidates.

We may seek third-party collaborators for development and commercialization of our new drug candidates. We are seeking large and mid-size pharmaceutical companies, regional and national pharmaceutical companies, non-profit organizations, government agencies, and biotechnology companies as collaborators for any marketing, distribution, development, licensing or broader collaboration arrangements for our new drug candidates. Our ability to generate revenues from these arrangements will depend on our collaborators’ abilities to successfully perform the functions assigned to them in these arrangements.

Collaborative development of our products will pose the following risks to us:

● collaborators may have significant discretion in determining the efforts and resources that they will apply to these collaborations;

● collaborators may not pursue development and commercialization of our product candidate or may elect not to continue or renew development or commercialization programs based on preclinical or clinical trial results, changes in the collaborators’ strategic focus or available funding, or external factors such as an acquisition that diverts resources or creates competing priorities;

19

● collaborators may delay clinical trials, provide insufficient funding for a clinical trial program, stop a clinical trial or abandon a product candidate, repeat or conduct new clinical trials or require a new formulation of a product candidate for clinical testing;

● collaborators could independently develop, or develop with third parties, products that compete directly or indirectly with our product candidate if the collaborators believe that competitive products are more likely to be successfully developed or can be commercialized under terms that are more economically attractive than ours;

● collaborators with marketing and distribution rights to one or more products may not commit sufficient resources to the marketing and distribution of such product or products;

● collaborators may not properly maintain or defend our intellectual property rights or may use our proprietary information in such a way as to invite litigation that could jeopardize or invalidate our intellectual property or proprietary information or expose us to potential litigation;

● collaborators may infringe the intellectual property rights of third parties, which may expose us to litigation and potential liability;

● disputes may arise between the collaborators and us that result in the delay or termination of the research, development or commercialization of our product candidate or that result in costly litigation or arbitration that diverts management attention and resources; and

● collaborations may be terminated and, if terminated, may result in a need for additional capital to pursue further development or commercialization of the applicable product candidates.

Collaboration agreements may not lead to development or commercialization of our product candidate in the most efficient manner or at all. If a collaborator of ours were to be involved in a business combination, the continued pursuit and emphasis on our product development or commercialization program could be delayed, diminished or terminated.

We are dependent on obtaining certain patents and protecting our proprietary rights.

Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain patents, maintain trade secret protection and operate without infringing on the proprietary rights of third parties or having third parties circumvent our rights. We are licensing patented technologies for our products. The patent positions of biotechnology, biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can be highly uncertain and involve complex legal and factual questions. Thus, there can be no assurance that any of our patent applications will result in the issuance of patents, that we will develop additional proprietary products that are patentable, that any patents issued to us or those that already have been issued will provide us with any competitive advantages or will not be challenged by any third parties, that the patents of others will not impede our ability to do business or that third parties will not be able to circumvent our patents. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not independently develop similar products, duplicate any of our products not under patent protection, or, if patents are issued to us, design around the patented products we developed or will develop.

We may be required to obtain licenses from third parties to avoid infringing patents or other proprietary rights. No assurance can be given that any licenses required under any such patents or proprietary rights would be made available, if at all, on terms we find acceptable. If we do not obtain such licenses, we could encounter delays in the introduction of products or could find that the development, manufacture or sale of such products prohibitive.

A number of pharmaceutical, biopharmaceutical and biotechnological companies and research and academic institutions have developed technologies, filed patent applications or received patents on various technologies that may be related to or affect our business. Some of these technologies, applications or patents may conflict with our technologies or patent applications. Such conflict could limit the scope of the patents, if any, that we may obtain or result in the denial of our patent application. In addition, if patents that cover our activities are issued to other companies, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain licenses to these patents at a reasonable cost or be able to develop or obtain alternative technology. If we do not obtain such licenses, we will encounter delays in the introduction of products, or could find that the development, manufacture or sale of products requiring such licenses could be prohibited. In addition, we could incur substantial costs in defending ourselves in suits brought against us regarding potential patent infringement.

20

We are subject to various government regulations.

The manufacture and sale of therapeutic and diagnostic products in the U.S. and foreign jurisdictions are governed by a variety of statutes and regulations. These laws require approval of manufacturing facilities, controlled research and testing of products and government review and approval of a submission containing manufacturing, preclinical and clinical data in order to obtain marketing approval based on establishing the safety and efficacy of the product for each use sought, including adherence to current PIC/S Guide to Good Manufacturing Practice for Medicinal Products during production and storage, and control of marketing activities, including advertising and labeling.

The new drug candidates we are currently developing require significant preclinical and clinical testing and investment of substantial funds prior to its commercialization. The process of obtaining required approvals can be costly and time-consuming, and there can be no assurance that the new drugs will be successfully developed and receive applicable regulatory approvals. Foreign regulatory authorities have similar restrictions. Potential investors and shareholders should be aware of the risks, problems, delays, expenses and difficulties which we may encounter in view of the extensive regulatory environment which governs our business.

Our existing indebtedness may adversely affect our ability to obtain additional funds and may increase our vulnerability to economic or business downturns.

We are subject to a number of risks associated with our indebtedness, including: 1) we must dedicate a portion of our cash flows from operations to pay debt service costs, and therefore we have less funds available for operations and other purposes; 2) it may be more difficult and expensive to obtain additional funds through financings, if available at all; 3) we are more vulnerable to economic downturns and fluctuations in interest rates, less able to withstand competitive pressures and less flexible in reacting to changes in our industry and general economic conditions; and 4) if we default under any of our existing credit facilities or if our creditors demand payment of a portion or all of our indebtedness, we may not have sufficient funds to make such payments. As of December 31, 2017, our outstanding debt was $4,229,320 which was due to related parties.

We have recurring losses from operations and a significant accumulated deficit. In addition, we continue to experience negative cash flows from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we do not generate revenues, do not achieve profitability and do not have other sources of financing for our business, we may have to curtail or cease our development plans and operations, which could cause investors to lose the entire amount of their investment. With the doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, we may also face difficulties to raise additional funds.

If we are unable to establish appropriate internal financial reporting controls and procedures, it could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations, result in the restatement of our financial statements, harm our operating results, subject us to regulatory scrutiny and sanction, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and have a negative effect on the market price of our Common Stock.

Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. We maintain a system of internal control over financial reporting, which is defined as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

21

We cannot assure you that we will not, in the future, identify areas requiring improvement in our internal control over financial reporting.  We cannot assure you that the measures we will take to remediate any areas in need of improvement will be successful or that we will implement and maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future as we continue our growth.  If we are unable to establish appropriate internal financial reporting controls and procedures, it could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations, result in the restatement of our financial statements, harm our operating results, subject us to regulatory scrutiny and sanction, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information and have a negative effect on the market price for shares of our Common Stock.

Risks Relating to Our Securities

Insiders have substantial control over us, and they could delay or prevent a change in our corporate control even if our other stockholders wanted it to occur.

Our executive officers, directors, and principal stockholders own, in the aggregate, approximately 69.17% of our outstanding Common Stock. As a result of their stockholdings, these stockholders are able to assert substantial control over matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This could delay or prevent an outside party from acquiring or merging with us even if our other stockholders wanted it to occur.

The market price of our Common Stock may be volatile and there may not be sufficient liquidity in the market for our securities in order for investors to sell their securities.

The market price of our Common Stock has been and will likely continue to be highly volatile, as is the stock market in general. Factors that may materially affect the market price of our Common Stock are beyond our control, these factors may materially adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock, regardless of our performance.  In addition, the public stock markets have experienced extreme price and trading volume volatility. These broad market fluctuations may influence the market price of our Common Stock. There is currently only a limited public market for our Common Stock, which is listed on the OTCQB Market, and there can be no assurance that a trading market will develop further or be maintained in the future.

Our articles of incorporation allow for our board to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders, which could adversely affect the rights of the holders of our common stock.

Our Board of Directors has the authority to fix and determine the relative rights and preferences of preferred stock without stockholder approval. As a result, our Board of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that would grant to holders the preferred right to our assets upon liquidation, the right to receive dividend payments before dividends are distributed to the holders of common stock and the right to the redemption of the shares, together with a premium, prior to the redemption of our common stock. In addition, our Board of Directors could authorize the issuance of a series of preferred stock that has greater voting power than our common stock or that is convertible into our common stock, which could decrease the relative voting power of our common stock or result in dilution to our existing stockholders. Although we have no present intention to issue any additional shares of preferred stock or to create any additional series of preferred stock, we may issue such shares in the future. 

Our independent auditors have issued an audit opinion for our company, which includes a statement describing our going concern status. Our financial status creates a doubt whether we will continue as a going concern.

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion regarding our company. This means there is substantial doubt we can continue as an ongoing business for the next twelve months. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the uncertainty regarding our ability to continue in business. As such we may have to cease operations and investors could lose part or all of their investment in our company.

22

There is not now and may not be an active liquid trading market for the Company’s Common Stock.

There is no established active public trading market for the Company’s Common Stock. We cannot provide assurance that we will develop an active trading market for the Common Stock. Without an active market, the liquidity of the Common Stock will remain limited.

Introduction

Currently, we are a holding company operating through our wholly owned subsidiary, American BriVision Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“BriVision”). BriVision was incorporated in 2015 in the State of Delaware. It is a biotechnology company focused on the development of new drugs and innovative medical devices to fulfill unmet medical needs.  Following the Share Exchange (as described herein below), we have abandoned our prior business plan and we are now pursuing BriVision’s historical businesses and proposed businesses, which focus on the development of new drugs and innovative medical devices to fulfill unmet medical needs.  Our business model is to integrate research achievements from world-famous institutions, conduct clinical trials of translational medicine for Proof of Concept (“POC”), out-license to international pharmaceutical companies, and exploit global markets.

Overview

Prior to the Share Exchange, we were a company operating a web site for the sale of women's apparel.

We have had limited operations and have been issued a "going concern" opinion by our auditor, based upon our reliance on the sale of our common stock as the sole source of funds for our future operations.

On February 8, 2016, a Share Exchange Agreement (“Share Exchange Agreement”) was entered into by and among American BriVision (Holding) Corporation (the “Company”), American BriVision Corporation, a Delaware Corporation (“BriVision”), Euro-Asia Investment & Finance Corp. Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China (“Euro-Asia”), being the owners of record of 164,387,376 (52,336,000 pre-stock split) shares of common stock of the Company, and the persons listed in Exhibit A thereof (the “BriVision Shareholders”), being the owners of record of all of the issued share capital of BriVision (the “BriVision Stock”).

Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, upon surrender by the BriVision Shareholders and the cancellation by BriVision of the certificates evidencing the BriVision Stock as registered in the name of each BriVision Shareholder, and pursuant to the registration of the Company in the register of members maintained by BriVision as the new holder of the BriVision Stock and the issuance of the certificates evidencing the aforementioned registration of the BriVision Stock in the name of the Company, the Company should issued 166,273,921(52,936,583 pre-stock split) shares (the “Acquisition Stock”) (subject to adjustment for fractionalized shares as set forth below) of the Company’s common stock to the BriVision Shareholders (or their designees), and 163,159,952 (51,945,225 pre-stock split) shares of the Company’s common stock owned by Euro-Asia should be cancelled and retired to treasury.

The Acquisition Stock collectively represented 79.70% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company immediately after the Closing, in exchange for the BriVision Stock, representing 100% of the issued share capital of BriVision in a reverse merger, or the Merger. Pursuant to the Merger, all of the issued and outstanding shares of BriVision’s common stock were converted, at an exchange ratio of 0.2536-for-1, into an aggregate of 166,273,921(52,936,583 pre-stock split) shares of Company’s common stock and BriVision became a wholly owned subsidiary, of the Company. The holders of the Company’s common stock as of immediately prior to the Merger held an aggregate of 205,519,223 (65,431,144 pre-stock split) shares of the Company’s common stock. Because of the exchange of the BriVision Stock for the Acquisition Stock (the “Share Exchange”), BriVision became a wholly owned subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”) of the Company and there was a change of control of the Company following the closing.  There were no warrants, options or other equity instruments issued in connection with the share exchange agreement.

As a result of the consummation of the Share Exchange, BriVision is now our wholly-owned subsidiary and its shareholders own approximately 79.70% of our issued and outstanding common stock.

All references to the “Combined Company” refer to American BriVision (Holding) Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary, American BriVision Corporation.

25

Accounting Treatment of the Merger

For financial reporting purposes, the Share Exchange represented a “reverse merger” rather than a business combination and BriVision was deemed to be the accounting acquirer in the transaction. The Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse-merger and recapitalization. BriVision is the acquirer for financial reporting purposes and the Company is the acquired company. Consequently, the assets and liabilities and the operations that are reflected in the historical financial statements prior to the Share Exchange are those of BriVision and are recorded at the historical cost basis of BriVision, and the consolidated financial statements after completion of the Share Exchange includes the assets and liabilities of the Company and BriVision, and the historical operations of BriVision and operations of the combined entities (American Brivision (Holding) Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary Brivision) from the closing date of the Share Exchange.

For more information about the Share Exchange, please refer to the current report on Form 8-K filed on February 12, 2016.

Following the Share Exchange, we have abandoned our prior business plan and we are now pursuing BriVision’s historical businesses and proposed businesses. BriVision is a biotechnology company focused on the development of new drugs to fulfill unmet medical needs.  Our business model is integrating research achievements from world-famous institutions, such as Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (“MSKCC”) and MD Anderson Cancer Center, conducting clinical trials for Proof of Concept (“POC”), out-licensing to pharmaceutical companies.

We currently have seven products that are licensed to us:

● ABV-1501 Triple Negative Breast Cancer - Combination therapy for Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC)

● ABV-1502 Solid Tumor with Anti-PD1 - Combination therapy for solid tumors

● ABV-1503 Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia - Combination therapy for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia

● ABV-1504 Major Depressive Disorder - Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)

● ABV-1505 Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder - Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

● Maitake Combination Therapy

● BFC-1401 Vitreous Substitute for Vitrectom (“BFC-1401”)

Except ABV-1502, the rest of the six new drug candidates all are ready to go into phase II clinical study. ABV-1504 already started its phase II clinical study in Taiwan and we expect it will start the clinical trials in the United States soon.  ABV-1505 received IND Phase II clinical trial approval by the U.S. FDA on January 2016.  ABV-1501’s Phase II IND was approved in March 2016.  ABV-1502 and ABV-1503 are preparing IDE packages now.

Recent Developments

Forward Stock Split

On March 21, 2016, our Board approved an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to effect a forward split at a ratio of 1 to 3.141 and increase the number of our authorized shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, to 360,000,000, which became effective on April 8, 2016. The amendment to our Articles of Incorporation was approved by the majority of the shareholders of the Company.

Collaborative Agreement

On December 29, 2015, BriVision, our wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into a Collaboration Agreement with BioLite, of which Eugene Jiang, our chairman, is a director and principal shareholder. Pursuant to the Collaboration Agreement, BioLite granted BriVision sole licensing rights for drug and therapeutic use of five products (the “Products”): BLI-1005 CNS-Major Depressive Disorder; BLI-1008 CNS-Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder; BLI-1401-1 Anti-Tumor Combination Therapy-Solid Tumor with Anti-PD-1; BLI-1401-2 Anti-Tumor Combination Therapy-Triple Negative Breast Cancer, BLI-1501 Hematology-Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia in the U.S. and Canada.

26

This Collaborative Agreement has a term of fifteen years from the first commercial sales of the Products in the U.S. or Canada and automatically renews for five more years unless either party gives the other party six month written notice of termination prior to the expiration date of the term.

Pursuant to the Collaborative Agreement, an upfront payment of $3,500,000 (the “Milestone Payment”), which is 3.5% of total payments due under the Collaborative Agreement, was to be paid upon execution of that agreement.

 Under the Collaborative Agreement, BriVision is obligated to pay a total of up to $100,000,000 in cash or stock of BriVision with equivalent value, according to the following schedule:

● upfront payment waspayable upon the signing of this Collaborative Agreement: 3.5% of total payment. After receiving upfront payment from BriVision, BioLite has to deliver all data to BriVision in one week.

● upon the first IND submission, BriVision was obligated to pay, but no later than December 15, 2016: 6.5% of total payment. After receiving the second payment from BriVision, BioLite has to deliver the IND package to BriVision in one week.

● at the completion of first phase II clinical trial, BriVision was obligated to pay, but no later than September 15, 2017: 15% of total payment. After receiving third payment from BriVision, BioLite has to deliver the phase II clinical study report to BriVision in three months.

● upon the phase III IND submission, BriVision is obligated to pay, but no later than December 15, 2018: 20% of total payment. After receiving the fourth payment from BriVision, BioLite has to deliver the  IND package to BriVision in one week.

● at the completion of phase III, BriVision is obliged to pay, but no later than September 15, 2019: 25% of total payment. After receiving the fifth payment from BriVision, BioLite has to deliver phase III clinical study report to BriVision in three months.

● upon the NDA submission, BriVision obliged to pay, but no later than December 15, 2020, 30% of total payment. After receiving the sixth payment from BriVision, BioLite has to deliver NDA package to BriVision in one week.

On May 6, 2016, we and Biolite entered into the Milestone Payment Agreement in order to amend the Collaborative Agreement, whereby BriVision has agreed to pay the Milestone Payment to BioLite as in the form of $2,600,000 in cash and $900,000 in newly issued shares of our common stock, at the price of $1.60 per share, for an aggregate number of 562,500 shares.

Under the Collaborative Agreement, BioLite is also entitled to 5% of net sales of the Products. There have not been any commercial sales since the Collaborative Agreement became effective. 

As our collaboration with BioLite continues under the Collaborative Agreement, we intend to work together to select potential drug candidates (including but not limited to botanical drugs) from different research institutes, start to develop it from pre-clinical stage (including all CMC process and animal study) to clinical study stage. When the phase II clinical trial is finished and the efficacy is approved, we will have reached the “proof of concept” stage. We then plan to out license our drugs to big pharmaceutical companies, coordinate with them to develop and enhance the drugs and exploit global markets.

27

On January 12, 2017, we entered into an Addendum (the “Addendum”) to the Collaboration Agreement dated December 29, 2015 and as amended May 6, 2016. Pursuant to the Addendum, BioLite agreed to license us to research and develop an additional new drug, “Maitake Combination Therapy” (the “Sixth Product”) worldwide. The ownership of any clinical trial data and Intellectual Property as defined in the Collaboration Agreement shall belong to us. We shall pay for all clinical trials and other expenses associated with all clinical trials and shall have the right to sublicense Five Products in the North America Region and the Sixth Product worldwide. There is no additional Milestone Payments as defined in paragraph 3 of the Collaboration Agreement that need to be made now or in the future with respect to the Sixth Product. In the event that BioLite is obligated to pay its licensor in excess of 3% of the net sales, BioLite and us shall renegotiate and increase the Royalty Charge to a percentage to be later agreed upon as opposed to the original amount of 5% of the net sales as defined in paragraph 4 of the Collaboration Agreement.

On July 24, 2017, BriVision, one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries entered into a collaboration agreement (the “BioFirst Agreement”) with BioFirst Corporation (“BioFirst”), a corporation incorporated under the laws of Taiwan, pursuant to which BioFirst granted BriVision the global license to co-develop BFC-1401 Vitreous Substitute for Vitrectom (“BFC-1401”) for medical purposes. BioFirst is a related party to the Company because BioFirst and Yuangene Corporation (“Yuangene”), the Company’s controlling shareholder, are under common control of the controlling beneficiary shareholder of Yuangene.

According to the BioFirst Agreement, we co-develop and commercialize BFC-1401 with BioFirst and should pay BioFirst $3,000,000 (the “Total Payment”) in cash or common stock of the Company on or before September 30, 2018 in two installments. An upfront payment of $300,000, representing 10% of the Total Payment due under the Collaboration Agreement, was paid upon execution of the Collaboration Agreement. The Company is entitled to receive 50% of the future net licensing income or net sales profit when BFC-1401 is sublicensed or commercialized. For more information about the BioFirst Agreement, please refer to the current report on Form 8-K filed on July 24, 2017.  

Co-development Agreement with Rgene

On May 26, 2017, BriVision entered into a co-development agreement (the “Co-Dev Agreement”) with Rgene Corporation, a corporation incorporated under the laws of Taiwan (“Rgene”), to co-develop and commercialize in the global markets three new drug products that are included in the Sixth Product as defined in the Addendum. The three drugs licensed to Rgene are ABV-1507 HER2/neu Positive Breast Cancer Combination Therapy, ABV-1511 Pancreatic Cancer Combination Therapy and ABV-1527 Ovary Cancer Combination Therapy.

Pursuant to the Co-Dev Agreement, Rgene should pay to the Company $3,000,000 in cash or stock of Rgene with equivalent value by August 15, 2017 in three installments. The payment is for the compensation of BriVision’s past research efforts and contributions made by BriVision before the Co-Dev Agreement was signed and it does not relate to any future commitments made by BriVision and Rgene in this Co-Dev Agreement. Besides of $3,000,000, the Company is entitled to receive 50% of the future net licensing income or net sales profit earned by Rgene, if any, and any development cost shall be equally shared by both BriVision and Rgene.

On June 1, 2017, the Company has delivered all research, technical, data and development data to Rgene. Since both Rgene and the Company are related parties and under common control by a controlling beneficiary shareholder of Yuangene Corporation and the Company, the Company has recorded the full amount of $3,000,000 in connection with the Co-Dev Agreement as additional paid-in capital during the year ended September 30, 2017. As of the date of this report, the Company has received $450,000 in cash. For more information about the Co-Dev Agreement, please refer to the current report on Form 8-K we filed on May 30, 2017.

Revenue Generation

Most of our licensed products are still under development and trial stage. Therefore, no revenue is expected in the near term.

Research and Development

During the year ended September 30, 2017, we spent approximately $3,151,162 on research and development. During the three months ended December 31, 2017, we spent approximately $45,701 on research and development.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation.”

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (the “U.S. GAAP”). All significant intercompany transactions and account balances have been eliminated.

This basis of accounting involves the application of accrual accounting and consequently, revenues and gains are recognized when earned, and expenses and losses are recognized when incurred. The Company’s financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars.

Fiscal Year

The Company changed its fiscal year from the period beginning on October 1^st and ending on September 30^th to the period beginning on January 1^st and ending on December 31^st, beginning January 1, 2018. As a result, the current fiscal period is a three-month transition period ended on December 31, 2017. In these consolidated statements, including the notes thereto, the current period financial results ended December 31, 2017 are for a three-month period. Audited results for the twelve months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 are both for twelve-month periods. In addition, the Company's consolidated statements of operations and consolidated statements of cash flows include unaudited comparative amounts for the three-month period ended December 31, 2016. All references herein to a fiscal year prior to December 31, 2017 refer to the twelve months ended September 30^th of such year. 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ materially from those results.

Reclassifications

Certain classifications have been made to the prior year financial statements to conform to the current year presentation. The reclassification had no impact on previously reported net loss or accumulated deficit.

Forward Stock split

On March 21, 2016, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation to effect a forward split at a ratio of 1 to 3.141 and increase the number of our authorized shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, to 360,000,000, which was effective on April 8, 2016. The majority of the shareholders of the Company approved the amendment to its Articles of Incorporation.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies the provisions of ASC Subtopic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements”, for fair value measurements of financial assets and financial liabilities and for fair value measurements of nonfinancial items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements.  ASC 820 also establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

29

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.

ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes three levels of inputs to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

-         Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

-         Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

-         Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis subject to the disclosure requirements of ASC 820 as of September 30, 2017 and 2016.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents amounted to $93,332 and $204,851, respectively. Some of the Company’s cash deposits are held in financial institutions located in Taiwan where there is currently regulation mandated on obligatory insurance of bank accounts. The Company believes this financial institution is of high credit quality.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments in high quality credit institutions, but these investments may be in excess of Taiwan Central Deposit Insurance Corporation’s insurance limits. The Company does not enter into financial instruments for hedging, trading or speculative purposes. Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade and notes receivables is limited due to the wide variety of customers and markets in which the Company transacts business, as well as their dispersion across many geographical areas. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral, but does require advance deposits on certain transactions.

Receivable from Collaboration Partners

Receivable from collaboration partners is stated at carrying value less estimates made for doubtful receivables. An allowance for impairment of receivable from collaboration partners is established if the collection of a receivable becomes doubtful. Such receivable becomes doubtful when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter into bankruptcy or financial reorganization, and default or delinquency in payments are considered indicators that the receivable is impaired. The amount of the allowance is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. An impairment loss is recognized in the statement of operations, as are subsequent recoveries of previous impairments.

30

Research and Development Expenses

The Company accounts for the cost of using licensing rights in research and development cost according to ASC Topic 730-10-25-1. This guidance provides that absent alternative future uses the acquisition of product rights to be used in research and development activities must be charged to research and development expenses when incurred.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company measures expense associated with all employee stock-based compensation awards using a fair value method and recognizes such expense in the consolidated financial statements on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period in accordance with ASC Topic 718 “Compensation-Stock Compensation”. Total employee stock-based compensation expenses were $0 for the three months ended December 31, 2017, and $0 and $397,960 for the years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 The Company accounted for stock-based compensation to non-employees in accordance with ASC Topic 505-50 “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” which requires that the cost of services received from non-employees is measured at fair value at the earlier of the performance commitment date or the date service is completed and recognized over the period the service is provided. Total non-employee stock-based compensation expenses were $17,362 for the three months ended December 31, 2017, and $138,038 and $0 for the years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability approach which allows the recognition and measurement of deferred tax assets to be based upon the likelihood of realization of tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or future deductibility is uncertain.

 Under ASC 740, a tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The evaluation of a tax position is a two-step process. The first step is to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of any related appeals or litigations based on the technical merits of that position. The second step is to measure a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold to determine the amount of benefits recognized in the financial statements. A tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent period in which the threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not criteria should be de-recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which the threshold is no longer satisfied. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the year incurred. No significant penalty or interest relating to income taxes has been incurred for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and for the years ended September 30, 2017 and September, 30, 2016. GAAP also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures and transition.

For the three months ended December 31, 2017, the Company’s income tax expense amounted to $0. For the years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company’s income tax expense amounted to $830 and $836, respectively.

On December 22, 2017, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB 118”), which provides guidance on accounting for tax effects of the Tax Act. SAB 118 provides a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the Tax Act enactment date for companies to complete the accounting under ASC 740. In accordance with SAB 118, a company must reflect the income tax effects of those aspects of the Act for which the accounting under ASC 740 is complete. To the extent that a company’s accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act is incomplete but it is able to determine a reasonable estimate, it must record a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements. If a company cannot determine a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements, it should continue to apply ASC 740 on the basis of the provision of the tax laws that were in effect immediately before the enactment of the Tax Act. While the Company is able to make reasonable estimates of the impact of the reduction in corporate rate and the deemed repatriation transition tax, the final impact of the Tax Act may differ from these estimates, due to, among other things, changes in our interpretations and assumptions, additional guidance that may be issued by the I.R.S., and actions we may take. The Company is continuing to gather additional information to determine the final impact.

31

Loss Per Share of Common Stock

The Company reports loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260-10 "Earnings per Share." Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares available.

Commitments and Contingencies

The Company has adopted ASC Topic 450 “Contingencies” subtopic 20, in determining its accruals and disclosures with respect to loss contingencies. Accordingly, estimated losses from loss contingencies are accrued by a charge to income when information available before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued indicates that it is probable that an assets had been impaired or a liability had been incurred at the date of the financial statements and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal expenses associated with the contingency are expensed as incurred. If a loss contingency is not probable or reasonably estimable, disclosure of the loss contingency is made in the financial statements when it is at least reasonably possible that a material loss could be incurred.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Revenue Recognition:     In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606 (ASU 2014-09), to supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP, including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. ASU 2014-09 is effective for us in our first quarter of fiscal 2018 using either of two methods: (i) retrospective to each prior reporting period presented with the option to elect certain practical expedients as defined within ASU 2014-09 (full retrospective method); or (ii) retrospective with the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of initial application and providing certain additional disclosures as defined per ASU 2014-09 (modified retrospective method). We are currently assessing the materiality of the impact to our consolidated financial statements, and have not yet selected a transition approach.

Disclosure of Going Concern Uncertainties:     In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern(ASU 2014-15), to provide guidance on management’s responsibility in evaluating whether there is substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. ASU 2014-15 is effective for us in our fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 with early adoption permitted. We do not believe the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2014-15 on the Company’s financial statements will be material.

32

Leases: In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-2”), which provides guidance on lease amendments to the FASB Accounting should Standard Codification. This ASU will be effective for us beginning in May 1, 2019. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-2on our consolidated financial statements.

Stock-based Compensation:    In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Stock-Based Payment Accounting (ASU 2016-09). ASU 2016-09 changes how companies account for certain aspects of stock-based awards to employees, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for us in the first quarter of 2018, and earlier adoption is permitted. We are still evaluating the effect that this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): The amendments in this Update require a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The amendments broaden the information that an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured either collectively or individually. The use of forecasted information incorporates more timely information in the estimate of expected credit loss, which will be more decision useful to users of the financial statements. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is allowed as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is still evaluating the effect that this guidance will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Statement of Cash Flows: In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): The amendments in this Update apply to all entities, including both business entities and not-for-profit entities that are required to present a statement of cash flows under Topic 230. The amendments in this Update provide guidance on the following eight specific cash flow issues. The amendments are an improvement to GAAP because they provide guidance for each of the eight issues, thereby reducing the current and potential future diversity in practice described above. ASU 2016-15 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is still evaluating the effect that this guidance will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): “Restricted Cash”(“ASU 2016-18”). ASU 2016-18 requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. ASU 2016-18 will become effective for us beginning April 1, 2018, or fiscal 2019. ASU 2016-18 is required to be applied retrospectively. Upon the adoption, amounts described as restricted cash will be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period amounts shown on the statements of cash flows.

33

Business Combination:  In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-1 “Topic 805, Business Combinations: Clarifying the Definition of a Business”. The amendments in this update provide a screen to determine when a set is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. This screen reduces the number of transactions that need to be further evaluated. The amendments in this update affect all reporting entities that must determine whether they have acquired or sold a business. Public business entities should apply the amendments in this update to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. All other entities should apply the amendments to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-1 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by FASB that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. If not discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements upon adoption. Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, when adopted, will have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements. 

Limited Operating History; Need for Additional Capital

There is no historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance.  As of the date of this filing, we have not generated any revenues from operations. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations.  Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources, possible delays in the launching of our games and market or wider economic downturns. We do not believe we have sufficient funds to operate our business for the next 12 months.

We have no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all.  If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations.  Equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.

If we are unable to raise additional capital to maintain our operations in the future, we may be unable to carry out our full business plan or we may be forced to cease operations.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017 and accompanying notes that appear in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Results of Operation

Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation. We expect we will require additional capital to meet our long term operating requirements. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of equity or debt securities, but we cannot guarantee that we will be able to achieve the same.

Revenues.  We did not generate any revenue during the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. As such, we did not incur any cost associated with revenues during the same periods.

Operating Expenses. Our operating expenses were $352,794 for the three months ended December 31, 2017 as compared to $210,386 for the three months ended December 31, 2016. The increase in operating expenses in the amount of $142,408 or 67.68% in the three months ended December 31, 2017 was primarily caused by the increase in professional service fees and consulting fees.

Interest Expense. The interest expense was $28,500 for three months ended December 31, 2017 as compared to $0 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2016. The increase of interest expenses by $28,500 was attributable to the loan in the principal amount of $950,000 from BioFirst Corporation.

Net Loss. As a result of the above factors, the net loss was $381,214 and $210,337 for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. The increase of net loss in the three months ended December 31, 2017 as compared to the same period ended December 31, 2016 was in an amount of $170,877 or by 81.23%.

Cash Flow from Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $111,519 during the three months ended December 31, 2017 (the transition period) compared to $224,892 in the 2016 comparable period, representing a decrease of $113,373, or 50.41%. This decrease was primarily driven by the increase in due to related parties and accrued expenses, partially offset by the increase in net loss.

During the years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, the net cash used in operating activities were $1,598,686 and $3,474,707, respectively, reflecting a decrease of $1,876,021 or 54.0%. Such decrease was primarily caused by the change in due to related parties during the year ended September 30, 2016.

Cash Flow from Investing Activities

There was no net cash used or generated from investing activities during the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 and during the years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016.

Cash Flow from Financing Activities

During the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, net cash generated from financing activities was $0 and $70,000. The decrease in net cash generated from financing activities was because the amount of $70,000 was generated by a one-time consulting service provided to LionGene Corporation during the three months ended September 30, 2016.

During the years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, the net cash provided by financing activities were $1,630,000 and $2,653,414, respectively, representing a decrease of $1,023,414 or 38.6%. The decrease in cash flow provided by financing activities during the year ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the year of 2016 was mainly due to the reduced amounts of equity private placements, partially offset by the increase in capital contribution and loans from related parties during the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2017. 

Critical Accounting Policy and Estimates

We believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation.”

Going Concern Consideration

We have incurred losses since its inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $15,776,598 as of December 31, 2017 and net losses of $381,214 and a decreased cash flow of $111,519 during the three months ended December 31, 2017. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months. 

We expect to finance operations primarily through capital contributions from principal shareholders. In the event that we require additional funding to finance the growth of our current and expected future operations as well as to achieve our strategic objectives, our principal shareholders have indicated the intent and ability to provide additional equity financing.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that is material to investors.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

American BriVision (Holding) Corporation and Subsidiaries

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of American BriVision (Holding) Corporation and subsidiaries (collectively “the Company”) as of December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017, the related statement of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and for the year ended September 30, 2017, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company at December 31, 2017 and September 31, 2017, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and for the year ended September 30, 2017, in conformity with the U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis for Opinion

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

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.  Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that American BriVision (Holding) Corporation and subsidiaries will continue as a going concern.  As described in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred losses from operations, has a working capital deficit, and is in need of additional capital to grow its operations so that it can become profitable.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans with regard to these matters are described in Note 4. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of American BriVision Corporation and subsidiaries

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of American BriVision Corporation and subsidiaries (“the Company”) for the year ended September 30, 2016.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended September 30, 2016 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a significant accumulated deficit. In addition, the Company continues to experience negative cash flows from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. 

As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the 2016 financial statements have been restated to correct misstatements in the research and development expenses and the typographical errors.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2017

1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

American BriVision (Holding) Corporation (the “Company” or “Holding entity”), a Nevada corporation, through the Company’s operating entity, American BriVision Corporation (the “BriVision”), which was incorporated in July 2015 in the State of Delaware, engages in biotechnology and focuses on the development of new drugs and innovative medical devices to fulfill unmet medical needs.  The business model of the Company is to integrate research achievements from world-famous institutions (such as Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (“MSKCC”) and MD Anderson Cancer Center), conduct clinical trials of translational medicine for Proof of Concept (“POC”), out-license to international pharmaceutical companies, and exploit global markets. BriVision had to predecessor operations prior to its formation on July 21, 2015.

Reverse Merger

On February 8, 2016, a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) was entered into by and among American BriVision (Holding) Corporation, American BriVision Corporation (“BriVision”), and Euro-Asia Investment & Finance Corp. Limited, a company incorporated under the laws of Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People's Republic of China (“Euro-Asia”), being the owners of record of 164,387,376 (52,336,000 pre-stock split) shares of common stock of the Company, and the owners of record of all of the issued share capital of BriVision (the “BriVision Stock”).

Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, upon surrender by the BriVision Shareholders and the cancellation by BriVision of the certificates evidencing the BriVision Stock as registered in the name of each BriVision Shareholder, and pursuant to the registration of the Company in the register of members maintained by BriVision as the new holder of the BriVision Stock and the issuance of the certificates evidencing the aforementioned registration of the BriVision Stock in the name of the Company, the Company should issue 166,273,921(52,936,583 pre-stock split) shares (the “Acquisition Stock”) (subject to adjustment for fractionalized shares as set forth below) of the Company’s common stock to the BriVision Shareholders (or their designees), and 163,159,952 (51,945,225 pre-stock split) shares of the Company’s common stock owned by Euro-Asia should be cancelled and retired to treasury. The Acquisition Stock collectively should represent 79.70% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company immediately after the Closing, in exchange for the BriVision Stock, representing 100% of the issued share capital of BriVision in a reverse merger (the “Merger”).

Pursuant to the Merger, all of the issued and outstanding common shares of BriVision were converted, at an exchange ratio of 0.2536-for-1, into an aggregate of 166,273,921(52,936,583pre-stock split) common shares of the Company and BriVision has become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The holders of Company’s common stock as of immediately prior to the Merger held an aggregate of 205,519,223(65,431,144 pre-stock split) shares of Company’s common stock. Because of the exchange of the BriVision Stock for the Acquisition Stock (the “Share Exchange”), BriVision has become a wholly owned subsidiary (the “Subsidiary”) of the Company and there was a change of control of the Company following the closing.  There were no warrants, options or other equity instruments issued in connection with the share exchange agreement.

Because of the consummation of the Share Exchange, BriVision is now our wholly owned subsidiary and its shareholders own approximately 79.70% of our issued and outstanding common stock.

Following the Share Exchange, we have abandoned our prior business plan and we are now pursuing BriVision’s historically proposed businesses, which focus on the development of new drugs and innovative medical devices to fulfill unmet medical needs.  The business model of the Company is to integrate research achievements from world-famous institutions, conduct clinical trials of translational medicine for Proof of Concept (“POC”), out-license to international pharmaceutical companies, and exploit global markets.

Accounting Treatment of the Reverse Merger

For financial reporting purposes, the Share Exchange represents a “reverse merger” rather than a business combination and BriVision is deemed the accounting acquirer in the transaction. The Share Exchange is being accounted for as a reverse-merger and recapitalization. BriVision is the acquirer for financial reporting purposes and the Company is the acquired company. Consequently, the assets and liabilities and the operations reflected in the historical financial statements prior to the Share Exchange will be those of BriVision and recorded at the historical cost basis of BriVision. In addition, the consolidated financial statements after completion of the Share Exchange will include the assets and liabilities of the Company and BriVision, and the historical operations of BriVision and operations of the Combined Company from the closing date of the Share Exchange.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (the “U.S. GAAP”). All significant intercompany transactions and account balances have been eliminated.

This basis of accounting involves the application of accrual accounting and consequently, revenues and gains are recognized when earned, and expenses and losses are recognized when incurred. The Company’s financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars.

F-9

Fiscal Year

The Company changed its fiscal year from the period beginning on October 1^st and ending on September 30^th to the period beginning on January 1^st and ending on December 31^st, beginning January 1, 2018. As a result, the current fiscal period is a three-month transition period ended on December 31, 2017. In these consolidated statements, including the notes thereto, the current period financial results ended December 31, 2017 are for a three-month period. Audited results for the twelve months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 are both for twelve-month periods. In addition, the Company's consolidated statements of operations and consolidated statements of cash flows include unaudited comparative amounts for the three-month period ended December 31, 2016. All references herein to a fiscal year prior to December 31, 2017 refer to the twelve months ended September 30^th of such year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ materially from those results.

Reclassifications

Certain classifications have been made to the prior year financial statements to conform to the current year presentation. The reclassification had no impact on previously reported net loss or accumulated deficit.

Forward Stock split

On March 21, 2016, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an amendment to Articles of Incorporation to effect a forward split at a ratio of 1 to 3.141 and increase the number of our authorized shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, to 360,000,000, which was effective on April 8, 2016. The majority of the shareholders of the Company approved the amendment to Articles of Incorporation.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies the provisions of ASC Subtopic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements”, for fair value measurements of financial assets and financial liabilities and for fair value measurements of nonfinancial items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements.  ASC 820 also establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.  When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability.

ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes three levels of inputs to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

-         Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

-         Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

-         Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value.

There were no assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis subject to the disclosure requirements of ASC 820 as of September 30, 2017 and 2016.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents amounted $93,332 and $204,851, respectively. Some of the Company’s cash deposits are held in financial institutions located in Taiwan where there is currently regulation mandated on obligatory insurance of bank accounts. The Company believes this financial institution is of high credit quality.

F-10

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments in high quality credit institutions, but these investments may be in excess of Taiwan Central Deposit Insurance Corporation’s insurance limits. The Company does not enter into financial instruments for hedging, trading or speculative purposes. Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade and notes receivables is limited due to the wide variety of customers and markets in which the Company transacts business, as well as their dispersion across many geographical areas. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral, but does require advance deposits on certain transactions.

Receivable from Collaboration Partners

Receivable from collaboration partners is stated at carrying value less estimates made for doubtful receivables. An allowance for impairment of receivable from collaboration partners is established if the collection of a receivable becomes doubtful. Such receivable becomes doubtful when there is objective evidence that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. Significant financial difficulties of the debtor, probability that the debtor will enter into bankruptcy or financial reorganization, and default or delinquency in payments are considered indicators that the receivable is impaired. The amount of the allowance is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the original effective interest rate. An impairment loss is recognized in the statement of operations, as are subsequent recoveries of previous impairments.

Research and Development Expenses

The Company accounts for the cost of using licensing rights in research and development cost according to ASC Topic 730-10-25-1. This guidance provides that absent alternative future uses the acquisition of product rights to be used in research and development activities must be charged to research and development expenses when incurred.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company measures expense associated with all employee stock-based compensation awards using a fair value method and recognizes such expense in the consolidated financial statements on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period in accordance with ASC Topic 718 “Compensation-Stock Compensation”. Total employee stock-based compensation expenses were $0 for the three months ended December 31, 2017, and $0 and $397,960 for the years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

The Company accounted for stock-based compensation to non-employees in accordance with ASC Topic 505-50 “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees” which requires that the cost of services received from non-employees is measured at fair value at the earlier of the performance commitment date or the date service is completed and recognized over the period the service is provided. Total non-employee stock-based compensation expenses were $17,362 for the three months ended December 31, 2017, and $138,038 and $0 for the years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability approach which allows the recognition and measurement of deferred tax assets to be based upon the likelihood of realization of tax benefits in future years. Under the asset and liability approach, deferred taxes are provided for the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A valuation allowance is provided for deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not these items will expire before the Company is able to realize their benefits, or future deductibility is uncertain.

Under ASC 740, a tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The evaluation of a tax position is a two-step process. The first step is to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of any related appeals or litigations based on the technical merits of that position. The second step is to measure a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold to determine the amount of benefits recognized in the financial statements. A tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent period in which the threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not criteria should be de-recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which the threshold is no longer satisfied. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the year incurred. No significant penalty or interest relating to income taxes has been incurred for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and for the years ended September 30, 2017 and September, 30, 2016. GAAP also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures and transition.

For the three months ended December 31, 2017, the Company’s income tax expense amounted $0. For the years ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company’s income tax expense amounted $830 and $836, respectively.

F-11

On December 22, 2017, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB 118”), which provides guidance on accounting for tax effects of the Tax Act. SAB 118 provides a measurement period that should not extend beyond one year from the Tax Act enactment date for companies to complete the accounting under ASC 740. In accordance with SAB 118, a company must reflect the income tax effects of those aspects of the Act for which the accounting under ASC 740 is complete. To the extent that a company’s accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Act is incomplete but it is able to determine a reasonable estimate, it must record a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements. If a company cannot determine a provisional estimate to be included in the financial statements, it should continue to apply ASC 740 on the basis of the provision of the tax laws that were in effect immediately before the enactment of the Tax Act. While the Company is able to make reasonable estimates of the impact of the reduction in corporate rate and the deemed repatriation transition tax, the final impact of the Tax Act may differ from these estimates, due to, among other things, changes in our interpretations and assumptions, additional guidance that may be issued by the I.R.S., and actions we may take. The Company is continuing to gather additional information to determine the final impact.

Loss Per Share of Common Stock

The Company reports loss per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260-10 "Earnings per Share." Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares available.

Commitments and Contingencies

The Company has adopted ASC Topic 450 “Contingencies” subtopic 20, in determining its accruals and disclosures with respect to loss contingencies. Accordingly, estimated losses from loss contingencies are accrued by a charge to income when information available before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued indicates that it is probable that an assets had been impaired or a liability had been incurred at the date of the financial statements and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal expenses associated with the contingency are expensed as incurred. If a loss contingency is not probable or reasonably estimable, disclosure of the loss contingency is made in the financial statements when it is at least reasonably possible that a material loss could be incurred.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Revenue Recognition:     In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606 (ASU 2014-09), to supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP, including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation. ASU 2014-09 is effective for us in our first quarter of fiscal 2018 using either of two methods: (i) retrospective to each prior reporting period presented with the option to elect certain practical expedients as defined within ASU 2014-09 (full retrospective method); or (ii) retrospective with the cumulative effect of initially applying ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of initial application and providing certain additional disclosures as defined per ASU 2014-09 (modified retrospective method). We are currently assessing the materiality of the impact to our consolidated financial statements, and have not yet selected a transition approach.

Disclosure of Going Concern Uncertainties:     In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern(ASU 2014-15), to provide guidance on management’s responsibility in evaluating whether there is substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. ASU 2014-15 is effective for us in our fourth quarter of fiscal 2017 with early adoption permitted. We do not believe the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2014-15 on the Company’s financial statements will be material.

Leases:     In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-2”), which provides guidance on lease amendments to the FASB Accounting should Standard Codification. This ASU will be effective for us beginning in May 1, 2019. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-2on our consolidated financial statements.

Stock-based Compensation:    In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Stock-Based Payment Accounting (ASU 2016-09). ASU 2016-09 changes how companies account for certain aspects of stock-based awards to employees, including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for us in the first quarter of 2018, and earlier adoption is permitted. We are still evaluating the effect that this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

F-12

Financial Instruments - Credit Losses: In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): The amendments in this Update require a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The amendments broaden the information that an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured either collectively or individually. The use of forecasted information incorporates more timely information in the estimate of expected credit loss, which will be more decision useful to users of the financial statements. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is allowed as of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is still evaluating the effect that this guidance will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Statement of Cash Flows: In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): The amendments in this Update apply to all entities, including both business entities and not-for-profit entities that are required to present a statement of cash flows under Topic 230. The amendments in this Update provide guidance on the following eight specific cash flow issues. The amendments are an improvement to GAAP because they provide guidance for each of the eight issues, thereby reducing the current and potential future diversity in practice described above. ASU 2016-15 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is still evaluating the effect that this guidance will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): “Restricted Cash”(“ASU 2016-18”). ASU 2016-18 requires that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. ASU 2016-18 will become effective for us beginning April 1, 2018, or fiscal 2019. ASU 2016-18 is required to be applied retrospectively. Upon the adoption, amounts described as restricted cash will be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period amounts shown on the statements of cash flows.

Business Combination:  In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-1 “Topic 805, Business Combinations: Clarifying the Definition of a Business”. The amendments in this update provide a screen to determine when a set is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. This screen reduces the number of transactions that need to be further evaluated. The amendments in this update affect all reporting entities that must determine whether they have acquired or sold a business. Public business entities should apply the amendments in this update to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. All other entities should apply the amendments to annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-1 to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by FASB that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. If not discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements upon adoption. Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, when adopted, will have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements 

4. GOING CONCERN

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred losses since its inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $15,776,598 and $15,395,384 as of December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017, respectively, and incurred net loss of $381,214 for the three months ended December 31, 2017, and $4,071,983 during the year ended September 30, 2017. The Company also had working capital deficiency of $1,756,915 and $1,393,063 at December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017, respectively.  The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company upon signing of that agreement. On May 6, 2016, the Company and BioLite agreed to amend the BioLite Collaborative Agreement, through enter into the Milestone Payment Agreement, whereby the Company has agreed to pay the Milestone Payment to BioLite $2,600,000 in cash and $900,000 in newly issued shares of its common stock, at the price of $1.60 per share, for an aggregate number of 562,500 shares. The cash payment and shares issuance were completed in June 2016. Pursuant to the BioLite Collaborative Agreement, the 6.5% of total payment, $6,500,000 shall be made upon the first IND submission which was submitted in March 2016. On February 2017, the Company agreed to pay this amount to BioLite with $650,000 in cash and $5,850,000 in the form of newly issued shares of its common stock, at the price of $2.0 per share, for an aggregate number of 2,925,000 shares. The cash payment and shares issuance were completed in February 2017. This BioLite Collaborative Agreement shall, once signed by both Parties, remain in effect for fifteen years as of the first commercial sales of the Product in the Territory and automatically renew for five more years unless either party gives the other party six month written notice of termination prior to the expiration date of the term.

F-13

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plans to obtain such resources for the Company include (1) obtaining capital from the sale of its equity securities (2) short-term and long-term borrowings from banks and third-parties, and (3) short-term borrowings from stockholders or other related party(ies) when needed. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually to secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations.

5. COLLABORATIVE AGREEMENTS

Collaborative agreement with BioLite Inc., a related party

On December 29, 2015, American BriVision Corporation entered into a collaborative agreement (the “BioLite Collaborative Agreement”) with BioLite Inc. (the “BioLite”), a related party (See Note 7), pursuant to which BioLite granted BriVision sole licensing rights for drug and therapeutic use of five products, including BLI-1005 CNS-Major Depressive Disorder, BLI-1008 CNS-Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, BLI-1401-1 Anti-Tumor Combination Therapy-Solid Tumor with Anti-PD-1, BLI-1401-2 Anti-Tumor Combination Therapy-Triple Negative Breast Cancer, and BLI-1501 Hematology-Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, in the U.S.A and Canada. Under the BioLite Collaborative Agreement, BriVision should pay a total of $100,000,000 in cash or stock of BriVision with equivalent value, according to the following schedule:

●  upfront payment shall upon the signing of this BioLite Collaborative Agreement: 3.5% of total payment. After receiving upfront payment from BriVision, BioLite has to deliver all data to BriVision in one week.

● upon the first IND submission, BriVision shall pay, but no later than December 15, 2016: 6.5% of total payment. After receiving second payment from BriVision, BioLite has to deliver IND package to BriVision in one week.

● at the completion of first phase II clinical trial, BriVision shall pay, but no later than September 15, 2017: 15% of total payment. After receiving third payment from BriVision, BioLite has to deliver phase II clinical study report to BriVision in three months.

● upon the phase III IND submission, BriVision shall pay, but no later than December 15, 2018: 20% of total payment. After receiving forth payment from BriVision, BioLite has to deliver IND package to BriVision in one week.

● at the completion of phase III, BriVision shall pay, but no later than September 15, 2019:25% of total payment. After receiving fifth payment from BriVision, BioLite has to deliver phase III clinical study report to BriVision in three months.

● upon the NDA submission, BriVision shall pay, but no later than December 15, 2020, BriVision shall pay: 30% of total payment. After receiving sixth payment from BriVision, BioLite has to deliver NDA package to BriVision in one week. 

This BioLite Collaborative Agreement shall, once signed by both Parties, remain in effect for fifteen years as of the first commercial sales of the Product in the Territory and automatically renew for five more years unless either party gives the other party six month written notice of termination prior to the expiration date of the term.

Pursuant to the BioLite Collaborative Agreement, an upfront payment of $3,500,000 (the “Milestone Payment”), which is 3.5% of total payments due under the BioLite Collaborative Agreement, was to be paid by the Company upon signing of that agreement. On May 6, 2016, the Company and BioLite agreed to amend the BioLite Collaborative Agreement, through entry into the Milestone Payment Agreement, whereby the Company agreed to pay the Milestone Payment to BioLite with $2,600,000 in cash and $900,000 in the form of newly issued shares of its common stock, at the price of $1.60 per share, for an aggregate number of 562,500 shares. The cash payment and shares issuance were completed in June 2016.

Pursuant to the BioLite Collaborative Agreement, the 6.5% of total payment, $6,500,000 shall be made upon the first IND submission which was submitted in March 2016. On February 2017, the Company agreed to pay this amount to BioLite with $650,000 in cash and $5,850,000 in the form of newly issued shares of its common stock, at the price of $2.0 per share, for an aggregate number of 2,925,000 shares. The cash payment and shares issuance were completed in February 2017.

Pursuant to the BioLite Collaborative Agreement, the 15% of total payment, $15,000,000 shall be made at the completion of first phase II clinical trial. As of December 31, 2017, the first phase II clinical trial research has not completed yet.

F-14

The Company determined to fully expense the entire amount of $10,000,000 since currently the related licensing rights do not have alternative future uses. According to ASC 730-10-25-1, absent alternative future uses the acquisition of product rights to be used in research and development activities must be charged to research and development expenses immediately. Hence the entire amount is fully expensed as research and development expense.

On January 12, 2017, the Company entered into an Addendum (the “Addendum”) to the BioLite Collaborative Agreement which was previously entered into with BioLite. Pursuant to the Addendum, the Company and BioLite agreed to include one more product, namely, “Maitake Combination Therapy” as one of the Products defined in the BioLite Collaborative Agreement (the “Sixth Product’) and defined the Territory of the Sixth Product to be worldwide and restate the Territory of the Five Products to be the U.S.A and Canada.

Co-Development agreement with Rgene Corporation, a related party

On May 26, 2017, American BriVision Corporation entered into a co-development agreement (the “Co-Dev Agreement”) with Rgene Corporation (the “Rgene”), a related party under common control by controlling beneficiary shareholder of Yuangene Corporation and the Company (See Note 7). Pursuant to Co-Dev Agreement, BriVison and Rgene agreed to co-develop and commercialize certain products that are included in the Sixth Product as defined in the Addendum. Under the terms of the Co-Dev Agreement, Rgene should pay the Company $3,000,000 in cash or stock of Rgene with equivalent value by August 15, 2017. The payment is for the compensation of BriVision’s past research efforts and contributions made by BriVision before the Co-Dev Agreement was signed and it does not relate to any future commitments made by BriVision and Rgene in this Co-Dev Agreement. Besides of $3,000,000, the Company is entitled to receive 50% of the future net licensing income or net sales profit earned by Rgene, if any, and any development cost shall be equally shared by both BriVision and Rgene.

On June 1, 2017, the Company has delivered all research, technical, data and development data to Rgene. Since both Rgene and the Company are related parties and under common control by a controlling beneficiary shareholder of Yuangene Corporation and the Company, the Company has recorded the full amount of $3,000,000 in connection with the Co-Dev Agreement as additional paid-in capital during the year ended September 30, 2017. As of the date of this report, the Company has received $450,000 in cash. The Company is still in discussion with Rgene with respect to the schedule of the outstanding balance.

Collaborative agreement with BioFirst Corporation, a related party

On July 24, 2017, American BriVision Corporation entered into a collaborative agreement (the “BioFirst Collaborative Agreement”) with BioFirst Corporation (“BioFirst”), pursuant to which BioFirst granted the Company the global licensing right for medical use of the product (the “Product”): BFC-1401 Vitreous Substitute for Vitrectomy. BioFirst is a related party to the Company because a controlling beneficiary shareholder of Yuangene Corporation and the Company is one of the directors and common stock shareholders of BioFirst (See Note 7).

Pursuant to the BioFirst Collaborative Agreement, the Company will co-develop and commercialize the Product with BioFirst and pay BioFirst in a total amount of $3,000,000 in cash or stock of the Company before September 30, 2018. The amount of $3,000,000 is in connection with the compensation for BioFirst’s past research efforts and contributions made by BioFirst before the BioFirst Collaborative Agreement was signed and it does not relate to any future commitments made by BioFirst and BriVision in this BioFirst Collaborative Agreement. In addition, the Company is entitled to receive 50% of the future net licensing income or net sales profit, if any, and any development cost shall be equally shared by both BriVision and BioFirst.

On September 25, 2017, BioFirst has delivered all research, technical, data and development data to BriVision. No payment has been made by the Company as of the date of this report. The Company determined to fully expense the entire amount of $3,000,000 since currently the related licensing rights do not have alternative future uses. According to ASC 730-10-25-1, absent alternative future uses the acquisition of product rights to be used in research and development activities must be charged to research and development expenses immediately. Hence the entire amount of $3,000,000 is fully expensed as research and development expense during the year ended September 30, 2017.

The Company measured the fair value of the equity instruments in these transactions using the stock price on the date at which the commitments Kameyama, Euro-Asia, and Kimho for performance were rendered.

9. INCOME TAX

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various state and local jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2013.

On December 22, 2017 H.R. 1, originally known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, (the “Tax Act”) was enacted. Among the significant changes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, the Tax Act lowers the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate (“Federal Tax Rate”) from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018. The 21% Federal Tax Rate will apply to earnings reported for the full 2018 fiscal year. In addition, the Company must re-measure its net deferred tax assets and liabilities using the Federal Tax Rate that will apply when these amounts are expected to reverse. As of December 31, 2017, the Company can determine a reasonable estimate for certain effects of tax reform and is recording that estimate as a provisional amount. The provisional remeasurement of the deferred tax assets and allowance valuation of deferred tax assets at December 31, 2017 resulted in a net effect of $0 discrete tax expenses (benefit) which lowered the effective tax rate by 13% for the year ended December 31, 2017. The provisional remeasurement amount is anticipated to change as data becomes available allowing more accurate scheduling of the deferred tax assets and liabilities primarily related to net operating loss carryover.
