ITEM 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Lightlake Therapeutics, Inc. is an early stage biopharmaceutical company using its expertise with opioid antagonists to develop modern treatments for common addictions and related disorders.  Opioid antagonists block opioid receptors in the brain so endorphins are unable to exert their effects.  Currently we are focused on developing a treatment for overweight and obese patients with Binge Eating Disorder, which is thought to be the most common eating disorder in the US today, and a treatment for patients with Bulimia Nervosa, which is a condition estimated to be affecting five million people in the US at this time.  For our future endeavors, we have patents that will allow us to widen our product pipeline to address patients with addictions to opioid painkillers, methadone, cocaine and amphetamine.

Currently Lightlake is conducting Phase II clinical trials in Helsinki, Finland to investigate the use of the opioid antagonist naloxone intra-nasally as a treatment for Binge Eating Disorder.  Our approach is unique, through using a single agent with known safety, delivered intra-nasally, in response to behavioral stimuli, and selectively addressing a subset of obese and overweight patients which is thought to represent up to 25% of this total patient cohort.  We believe that our approach will deliver successful outcomes in a challenging area that has recently encountered several failures.

The science we are using to develop a treatment for Binge Eating Disorder is derived from the “Sinclair Method,” which was founded by our Chief Science Officer, Dr. David Sinclair.  In 1990, Dr. Sinclair discovered that the opioid antagonist naltrexone, when used correctly in the presence of drinking alcohol, decreased the craving for alcohol in alcoholics.  Naltrexone has demonstrated a 78% success rate in helping patients abstain from alcohol or consume it at safe levels at long term follow-up.  In 1989, Dr. Sinclair patented his "Method for Treating Alcohol Drinking Responses,” also known as the “Sinclair Method,” and in 1994, the FDA approved the use of naltrexone as a treatment for alcohol dependence.  Since then, the “Sinclair Method” has been used by medical practices around the globe as an effective treatment for alcoholism.
 
 
Similar to how an alcoholic tends to perceive and consume alcohol, patients suffering from Binge Eating Disorder typically exhibit a lack of control eating foods typically high in sugar, fat or salt, are preoccupied with eating these types of foods, and are able to override the feeling of fullness.  When these patients eat foods with high levels of sugar, salt or fat, the opioidergic system is activated, which causes the firing of the neurons that release endorphins. The endorphins then bind to opioid receptors on other neurons and activate these opioid receptors, which reinforces the addictive behavior.  By blocking these opioid receptors with an opioid antagonist, the effect these endorphins have each time these foods are eaten is counteracted.

We consider naloxone the optimal opioid antagonist to address Binge Eating Disorder as naloxone remains in the brain for two hours, which is the duration of a typical binge.   Moreover, we expect that  the  nasal spray is unlikely to be used in a truly chronic manner— as patients would only administer the treatment when they have the urge to binge eat, and would require less of the spray over time as they regain control of their eating habits.

Lightlake commenced Phase II trials investigating the use of naloxone intra-nasally as a treatment for Binge Eating Disorder in the third quarter of 2011 with the expectation that the trials will take six months to complete.  138 patients meeting the criteria for Binge Eating Disorder were randomly selected from over 900 applicants wanting to participate in these trials.  While each patient is randomized to take either intranasal naloxone or a placebo nasal spray, all of the patients are partaking in an exercise program—a behavior that we believe can be reinforced through this approach.  Some of the patients carry the A118G, which is a genetic variant for the Mu Opioid receptor, and we will determine whether their response to treatment differs.  We have already identified a suitable nasal spray manufacturer.

If the outcome of Phase II is favorable, we aim to collaborate with other parties to progress to and fund Phase III in addition to our plans to grow organically.  While we currently have plans for Imperial College London, United Kingdom, to be a major site for Phase III, we are also seeking to identify suitable centers in the US.  We currently have agreements to collaborate with Celesio AG and Lloyds Pharmacy, and we will further pursue similar relationships over the next 12 months to provide funding and strategic relationships that will help us reach key milestones.  At this point, the management team will be strengthened accordingly.  During the next year we aim to broaden our product pipeline, and anticipate commencing further trials based on our existing as well as potential patents that relate to the use of opioid antagonists.  In particular, we are looking to commence Phase II trials to investigate an opioid antagonist-based treatment for Bulimia Nervosa in 2012 as we are confident that we can apply the same science we are using to develop a treatment for Binge Eating Disorder to develop a solution for Bulimia Nervosa.

PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS OR SERVICES AND MARKETS

GENERAL INFORMATION

The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 21, 2005, as Madrona Ventures, Inc. and on September 16, 2009, the Company changed its’ name to Lightlake Therapeutics, Inc.  The Company’s fiscal year end is July 31.  Lightlake is a Development Stage Company.
 
 
Lightlake Therapeutics Inc. is an early stage biopharmaceutical company currently developing a new approach for the treatment of overweight and obese patients with Binge Eating Disorder as well as a new approach for the treatment of Bulimia Nervosa.  Our strategy is to build a specialist Biopharmaceutical Company based on our expertise using opioid antagonists.

During the year ended July 31, 2010, Lightlake carried out operations to utilize the patent and patent applications it acquired on August 24, 2009, the Company acquired European Patent EP1681057B1 and US Patent Application 11/031,534.  The Company was informed on October 15, 2010, that the US Patent application was approved.

In November 2009, Lightlake’s clinical trial team in Helsinki, Finland was granted ethical approval to begin screening subjects for the Phase II clinical trials of the opioid antagonist-based nasal spray treatment for Binge Eating Disorder.  From the approximately 900 people who contacted Lightlake wanting to participate in these trials, 298 of these applicants had gene samples analyzed and 138 subjects were subsequently selected.

On May 6, 2010, Lightlake was granted ethical approval for the Phase II trials.  A preliminary meeting with the FIMEA Regulatory Authority was held on May 7, 2010 and their requirements for approval were obtained.    These trials are being supervised under the direction of trial coordinator Professor Hannu Eero Rafael Alho, Professor of Addiction Medicine at the University of Helsinki.  Crown CRO, a Finnish research organization involved in approximately 300 clinical trials over the years in addition to 90 clinical trials in progress, is providing the external validation for the Phase II trials.

Our plan of operation for the next twelve months is to pursue the Phase II clinical trials in Helsinki, Finland on the user patents that were acquired by Lightlake from Dr. David Sinclair in exchange for 20,333,333 restricted common shares on August 24, 2009.  The treatment is a proprietary patented pharmaceutical medicine-based program pioneered by Dr. David Sinclair.  In addition, we are looking to commence Phase II trials of an opioid antagonist-based treatment for Bulimia Nervosa in 2012.

On November 29, 2010, the Company announced Dr. Michael Sinclair, a seasoned healthcare executive, as the Company’s new Executive Chairman.  His experience and capability in the healthcare industry is invaluable for Lightlake

On December 16, 2010, the Company announced it had acquired US Patent 5,587,381, entitled: “Method For Terminating Methadone Maintenance Through Extinction of the Opiate-taking Responses,” using an opioid antagonist as treatment.  The patent was acquired for 7,116,667 warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.25 per share. It also covers addictions to cocaine, amphetamines and methadone  The issuance date of these warrants was November 29, 2010 and they expire in 5 years.  The potential to expand the product pipeline into this area is important progress for Lightlake as the Company aims to leverage its’ capabilities into new therapeutic areas in the future.
 
On December 29, 2010, the Company announced that it had appointed Mary K. Pendergast J.D., LL.M., as its advisor for Regulatory and Strategic Matters.  She is President of Pendergast Consulting, a legal and regulatory consulting firm founded in 2003.  Her background consists of a distinguished pedigree in her field including serving as Deputy Commissioner and Senior Advisor at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.  Her appointment is a significant addition to the team as her expertise as well as her wealth of knowledge will assist Lightlake in navigating through an increasingly challenging regulatory environment.
 
 
On October 15, 2010, Lightlake was informed by the Examiner at the US Patent office that our US Patent Application, 11/031,534, was approved, and that our U.S. patent would be granted.  On March 22, 2011 our Patent was officially issued—the Patent number is: 7,910,599.

In 2012, we anticipate launching Phase II trials to investigate the application of our technology as a treatment for Bulimia Nervosa, and we are seeking funding to facilitate these trials launch.  We have made arrangements with Kings College London, UK, to conduct these trials at the institution.  In working with Kings College, which has an internationally renowned eating disorder unit, we believe that we will considerably strengthen our already distinguished research and development team.  Professor Janet Treasure, head of the Eating Disorders Unit at the South London and Maudsley NHS Trust and author of several well-regarded books on eating disorders, and Professor Ulrike Schmidt, a consultant psychiatrist for the Eating Disorders Service and a fellow of the Academy for Eating Disorders, will serve as tremendous guides for these Phase II trials.

We also expect to announce a partnership with a leading addiction institution in an effort to commence an overdose program that will further leverage our expertise using opioid antagonists by applying a novel technique to enhance the current treatment for overdose.

We have prepaid our Helsinki Clinical trial team to conduct the Phase II clinical trials in Helsinki, Finland.
 
We anticipate that additional funding will be required in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock.  However, we may not be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock to fund our operations.

There has been no bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding.

There have been no material reclassifications, mergers, consolidations, or purchase or sale of a significant amount of assets not in the ordinary course of business.

We are required to comply with all regulations, rules and directives of governmental authorities and agencies applicable to the clinical testing and manufacturing of pharmaceutical product.
 
We are required to apply for or have any government approval for our products or services.

We have expended $1,371,808.00 for research and development costs since Lightlake’s inception.
 
EMPLOYEES

As of July 31, 2011 we have six permanent employees.  In addition, we have numerous outside consultants that are not on payroll.
 
 
REPORTS TO SECURITIES HOLDERS

We will provide an annual report that includes audited financial information to our shareholders.  We will make our financial information equally available to any interested parties or investors through compliance with the disclosure rules of Regulation S-K for a small business issuer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, including filing Form 10K annually and Form 10Q quarterly.  In addition, we will file Form 8K and other proxy and information statements from time to time as required.  We do not intend to voluntarily file the above reports in the event that our obligation to file such reports is suspended under the Exchange Act.  The public may read and copy any materials that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, ("SEC"), at the SEC's Public Reference Room at 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 20549.  The public may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330.  The SEC maintains an Internet site (http://www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC.

ITEM 1A - RISK FACTORS
 
WE ARE A DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE COMPANY AND EXPECT TO INCUR SIGNIFICANT OPERATING LOSSES FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE.

We were incorporated on June 21, 2005.  The Company operates as an early stage biopharmaceutical company focusing on developing new and innovative solutions to obesity and eating disorders.  We have not generated any revenues as of the date of this report.  The likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with the clinical trials that will be conducted and on the development of new solutions to obesity and eating disorders.  These potential problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated problems relating to the clinical trials, changes in the regulatory landscape and additional costs and expenses that may exceed current budget estimates for the completion of the trials.  Prior to completion of our Phase II and Phase III clinical trials, we anticipate that we will incur increased operating expenses without realizing any revenues.  We expect to incur significant losses into the foreseeable future. We recognize that if we are unable to generate funding, we will not be able to earn profits or continue operations. There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood that we will prove successful, and it is doubtful that we will generate any operating revenues or ever achieve profitable operations.  If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks, our business will most likely fail.

OUR INDEPENDENT AUDITOR HAS ISSUED AN AUDIT OPINION FOR LIGHTLAKE THERAPEUTICS, INC. WHICH INCLUDES A STATEMENT DESCRIBING OUR GOING CONCERN STATUS. OUR FINANCIAL STATUS CREATES A DOUBT WHETHER WE WILL CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN.
 
THE TRADING IN OUR SHARES IS REGULATED BY SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION RULE 15G-9 WHICH ESTABLISHED THE DEFINITION OF A "PENNY STOCK."

Our shares are defined as a Penny Stock under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, and rules of the Commission. The Exchange Act and such penny stock rules generally impose additional sales practice and disclosure than certain accredited investors who are, generally, institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 ($300,000 jointly with spouse), or in transactions not recommended by the Broker-Dealer.  For transactions covered by the penny stock rules, a Broker-Dealer must make a suitability determination for each purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement prior to the sale.  In addition, the Broker-Dealer must make certain mandated disclosures in penny stock transactions, including the actual sale or purchase price and actual bid and offer quotations, the compensation to be received by the Broker-Dealer and certain associated persons, and deliver certain disclosures required by the Commission.  Consequently, the penny stock rules may make it difficult for our shareholders to resell any shares, if at all.
 
 
WE WILL INCUR ONGOING COSTS AND EXPENSES FOR SEC REPORTING AND COMPLIANCE. WITHOUT REVENUE WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO REMAIN IN COMPLIANCE, MAKING IT DIFFICULT FOR INVESTORS TO SELL THEIR SHARES, IF AT ALL.

Our shares are quoted on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board under the symbol "LLTP".  To be eligible for quotation, issuers must remain current in their filings with the SEC. In order for us to remain in compliance we will require cash to cover the cost of these filings, which could comprise a substantial portion of our available cash resources.  If we are unable to remain in compliance it may be difficult for our shareholders to resell any shares, if at all.
 
ITEM 2 - DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

We do not currently own any property.  We are currently utilizing space at 54 Baker Street, London, England for our corporate offices.  We believe that the current premises are sufficient for our needs at this time.

We currently have no investment policies as they pertain to real estate, real estate interests or real estate mortgages.

ITEM 3 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are not currently involved in any legal proceedings nor do we have any knowledge of any threatened litigation.

ITEM 4 - SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITIES HOLDERS

No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the year ended July 31, 2011.
 
 
PART II

ITEM 5 - MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

Since April 2007, our common stock has been listed for quotation on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol LLTP.  Our 52 week range in our share price was $0.03 -0.92.

SHARES AVAILABLE UNDER RULE 144

A total of 36,255,000 shares of our common stock are available for resale to the public after July 2011, in accordance with the volume and trading limitations of Rule 144 of the Act.  In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person who has beneficially owned shares of a company's common stock for at least six months is entitled to sell within any three month period a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of:

1.   1% of the number of shares of the company's common stock then outstanding; or

2.   The average weekly trading volume of the company's common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale.

Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about the Company.

Under Rule 144(k), a person who is not one of the company's affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least two years, is entitled to sell shares without complying with the manner of sale, public information, volume limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144.

As of the date of this report, persons who are our affiliates hold 28,805,000 of the 36,255,000 shares that may be sold pursuant to Rule 144.

HOLDERS

As of July 31, 2011, we have 76,976,333 Shares of $0.001 par value common stock issued and outstanding held by 151 shareholders of record.  We have no other classes of shares authorized for issuance.

DIVIDENDS

There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that prevent us from declaring dividends.  The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:

     1.   We would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or

     2.  Our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of shareholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution.

We have not declared any dividends, and we do not plan to declare any dividends in the foreseeable future.
 

ITEM 7 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

We have generated no revenue since our inception on June 21, 2005 and have incurred $11,338,370 in operating expenses, which have resulted in overall accumulated losses of $11,295,207 through July 31, 2011.

GOING CONCERN

Lightlake Therapeutics Inc. is a Development Stage Enterprise.  Our independent auditor has issued an audit opinion, which includes a statement expressing substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our cash balance at July 31, 2011 was $51,789 together with $416,232 outstanding liabilities.  If we experience a shortage of funds prior to generating revenues from operations we may utilize funds from our Director, who has informally agreed to advance funds to allow us to pay for operating costs, however he has no formal commitment, arrangement or legal obligation to advance or loan funds to us.  Management believes that our current cash balance will not be sufficient to fund our operations for the next twelve months.
 
 
PLAN OF OPERATION

Our plan of operation for the next twelve months is to pursue the Phase II clinical trials in Helsinki, Finland on the user patents that were acquired August 24, 2009, as well commence Phase II trials of on an opioid antagonist-based treatment for Bulimia Nervosa

In the first quarter of 2011, we commenced a randomized, double blind placebo controlled trial in Helsinki, Finland to investigate the use of naloxone intra-nasally as a treatment for Binge Eating Disorder.  We expect that these trials will take six months to complete and we aim for these trials to be FDA compliant.  Patient selection for the Phase II trial was completed, with a total of 138 individuals with the appropriate genetic marker recruited from this patient base.  We have identified a suitable nasal spray manufacturer
 
If the outcome of Phase II is favorable, we intend to collaborate with other parties to progress to and fund Phase III. We anticipate that the Phase III trials will be held at the Imperial College London, United Kingdom and other international institutions, including institutions in the US.  We currently have agreements to collaborate with Celesio AG and Lloyds Pharmacy, and we will further pursue similar relationships over the next 12 months that will provide funding and strategic relationships to help us reach key milestones.  At this point the management team will be strengthened accordingly.  During the next year we aim to broaden our product pipeline, and anticipate acquiring additional patents that relate to the use of opioid antagonists.

In particular, we anticipate launching Phase II trials to investigate the application of our technology as a treatment for Bulimia Nervosa in 2012, and we are seeking funding to facilitate these trials launch.  We have made arrangements with Kings College London, UK, to conduct these trials at the institution.

We anticipate that additional funding will be required in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock or loans from our directors or shareholders.  However, we may not be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock to fund any future development.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Lightlake Therapeutics, Inc.:

I have audited the balance sheets of Lightlake Therapeutics, Inc. as of July 31, 2011 and 2010 and the related statement of operations, changes in stockholder’s deficit, and cash flows for the years then ended and for the period June 21, 2005 (date of inception) through July 31, 2011.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audits.
 
 
I conducted my audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that I plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements were free of material misstatement.  The Company was not required to have, nor was I engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  My audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that were 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, I express no such opinion.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  I believe that my audit provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.

In my opinion, the financial statements, referred to above, present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Lightlake Therapeutics, Inc. as of July 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended and for the period June 21, 2005 (date of inception) through July 31, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has no revenues from operation, has not emerged from the development stage, has had recurring losses resulting in accumulated deficit, negative cash flows from operations and is requiring traditional financing or equity funding to commence its operating plan.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Further information and management’s plans in regard to this uncertainty were also described in Note 2.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Financial Statements
For the years ended July 31, 2011 and 2010
 
1. Organization, Description of Business, and Basis of Accounting

Business Organization
Lightlake Therapeutics, Inc., (formerly known as Madrona Ventures, Inc.) (the Company) was originally incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 21, 2005.  On September 16, 2009, the Company changed its’ name to Lightlake Therapeutics, Inc.  The Company’s fiscal year end is July 31. The company is currently in the development stage and to date its’ activities have been limited to research and development and seeking capital. The Company is currently in the development stage and has limited assets and no revenue. In accordance with the FASB ASC 915, it is considered a Development Stage Company.
 
Accounting Basis
These financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting following generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America consistently applied.

Income Taxes
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. At July 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, the deferred tax asset and deferred tax liability accounts, as recorded when material to the financial statements, are entirely the result of temporary differences.  Temporary differences represent differences in the recognition of assets and liabilities for tax and financial reporting purposes, primarily share based compensation and loss on settlement of debt.

As of July 31, 2011 and 2010, the deferred tax asset related to the Company's net operating loss (NOL) carryforward is fully reserved.  Due to the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 338, the Company may have no net operating loss carryforwards available to offset financial statement or tax return taxable income in future periods as a result of a change in control involving 50 percentage points or more of the issued and outstanding securities of the Company.

Dividends
The Company is a Development Stage Company and has not yet adopted a policy regarding the payment of dividends.

Earnings (Loss) per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the respective  period presented in our accompanying financial statements.

Fully diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic income (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of common stock equivalents (primarily outstanding options and warrants).

Common stock equivalents represent the dilutive effect of the assumed exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants, using the treasury stock method, at either the beginning of the respective period presented or the date of issuance, whichever is later, and only if the common stock equivalents are considered dilutive based upon the Company’s net income (loss) position at the calculation date.

Research and Development Costs
The Company expenses all research and development costs as incurred for which there is no alternative future use. These costs also include the expensing of employee compensation and employee stock based compensation.

For the years ended July 31, 2011 and 2010 
 
1. Organization, Description of Business, and Basis of Accounting (Cont.)

Stock-Based Compensation
In December 2004, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) No. 718, Accounting for Stock Options and Other Stock Based Compensation.  Under FASB ASC 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans.  As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value.  Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.  The Company applies this statement prospectively.

Foreign Currency Translation
The Company’s functional currency is the United States Dollars. In accordance with ASC Topic 830, “Foreign Currency Translation”, foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated into their United States dollar equivalents using foreign exchange rates which prevailed at the balance sheet date. Non monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the year. Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Except for rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws and a limited number of grandfathered standards, the FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (“ASC”) is the sole source of authoritative GAAP literature recognized by the FASB and applicable to the Company.  Management has reviewed the aforementioned rules and releases and believes any effect will not have a material impact on the Company's present or future consolidated financial statements.

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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
2.  Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  However, the Company has incurred significant losses and is dependent on obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain the necessary funding it could cease operations as a new enterprise.  This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty

3.  Related Party Transactions

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer advanced funds to the Company for working capital needs in the amount of $307,969.  The amounts were non-interest bearing, unsecured, with no stated terms or repayment.

Prior to fiscal 2009, and though the date of the Belmont Agreement (See Note 6), a former officer of the Company advanced funds to the Company for working capital needs.  The amounts were non-interest bearing, unsecured, with no stated terms or repayment.  Concurrent with the Belmont Agreement, the former officer forgave the advances aggregating $28,816.

4.  Income Taxes
 
The Company provides for income taxes asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. This method requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
 
The provision for income taxes differs from the amounts which would be provided by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to the net loss before provision for income taxes for the following reasons:

4.  Income Taxes (Cont.)
 
The Company has a net operating loss carryover of $11,295,207 as of July 31, 2011 which begins to expire in 2026. Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards for federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in future years.

The Company has net operating loss carryforwards that were derived solely from operating losses from prior years.  These amounts can be carried forward to offset future taxable income for a period of 20 years for each tax year’s loss.  No provision was made for federal income taxes as the Company has significant net operating losses.

At July 31, 2011, and 2010, the Company has established a valuation allowance equal to the deferred tax assets as there is no assurance that the Company will generate future taxable income to utilize these assets.

Due to the provisions of Internal Revenue Code Section 338, the Company may have no net operating loss carryforwards available to offset financial statement or tax return taxable income in future periods as a result of a change in control involving 50 percentage points or more of the issued and outstanding securities of the Company. The Company had no uncertain tax positions at July 31, 2011 and July 31, 2010.

5.  Patent and Patent Applications

On December 16, 2011 the Company acquired US Patent 5,587,381, entitled: ‘Method for terminating methadone maintenance through extinction of the opiate-taking responses, using an opioid antagonist as treatment’.  This patent was acquired for 7,116,667 warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.25 per share. The issuance date of these warrants was November 29, 2010 and expire in  five years.

ITEM 9 - CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

On August 29, 2011 our auditor PS Stephenson & Co., P.C. declined to stand for re-election, due to changes within their firm, firm direction and scheduling, and the distance of our Company in regard to their office location.  On October 11, 2011 Peter Messineo was appointed as our new auditor.

ITEM 9A - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, we have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the evaluation date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the material information required to be included in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms relating to our Company, particularly during the period when this report was being prepared.

MANAGEMENT'S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, for the Company.

Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of its management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal control, and accordingly, even effective internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and may not prevent or detect material misstatements.  In addition, effective internal control at a point in time may become ineffective in future periods because of changes in conditions or due to deterioration in the degree of compliance with our established policies and procedures.

A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in there being a more than remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.
 
 
Under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, as of the Evaluation Date, based on the framework set forth in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).  Based on its evaluation under this framework, Management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of the Evaluation Date.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of Evaluation Date and identified the following material weaknesses:

LACK OF AUDIT COMMITTEE & OUTSIDE DIRECTORS ON THE COMPANY'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS:

We do not have a functioning audit committee and we have no outside directors on the Board of Directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures.

Management is committed to improving its internal controls and will (1) continue to use third party specialists to address shortfalls in staffing and to assist the Company with accounting and finance responsibilities, (2) increase the frequency of independent reconciliations of significant accounts which will mitigate the lack of segregation of duties until there are sufficient personnel and (3) may consider appointing outside directors and audit committee members in the future.

Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has discussed the material weakness noted above with our independent registered public accounting firm.  Due to the nature of this material weakness, there is a more than remote likelihood that misstatements which could be material to the annual or interim financial statements could occur that would not be prevented or detected.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management's report was not subject to attestation by the our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only Management's report in this annual report.

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

There were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the evaluation date.

CEO AND CFO CERTIFICATIONS

Appearing immediately following the Signatures section of this report there are Certifications of the CEO and the CFO.  The Certifications are required in accordance with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the Section 302 Certifications).  This Item of this report that you are currently reading is the information concerning the Evaluation referred to in the Section 302 Certifications and this information should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.
