EXPLANATORY NOTE

Subsequent to filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2017 (the “Form 10-Q”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 22, 2017, Next Graphite, Inc. (the “Company”) determined that a account classification error occurred in its gain recognition of the sale of subsidiary for the period ended March 31, 2017.

In accounting for the Company’s gain on the sale of 52% interest of subsidiary Gazania Investments Two Hundred and Forty Two (Proprietary) Limited for the period ended March 31, 2017, the Company reclass the deposit from investment into additional paid in capital which the joint venture partner fulfilled and achieved the certain milestone for the period ended March 31, 2017. Upon correcting for the previously used additional paid in capital, the Company should recognize the gain on the sales of subsidiary as income and has been $177,493 higher than previously reported.

As a result, to correct this classification error, the Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 to the Form 10-Q (“Amendment No. 1”) for the purpose of restating its condensed financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2017 included in Part I, “Item 1. Financial Statements.” See Note 13 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Amendment No. 1 for further information relating to the restatements. Conforming changes have been made to Part I, “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”

In accordance with Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we have included the entire text of Part I, Items 1 and 2 and Part II, Item 6 of the Form 10-Q in this Amendment No. 1.

This Amendment No. 1 includes new certifications pursuant to Sections 302 and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as Exhibits 31.1 and 32.1.

Except as expressly set forth above, this Amendment No. 1 does not, and does not purport to, amend, update or restate the information in any other Item of the Form 10-Q or reflect any events that have occurred after the filing of the Form 10-Q. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 1 should be read in conjunction with the Form 10-Q and the Company’s filings with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Form 10-Q on May 22, 2017.

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION

Next Graphite, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on September 26, 2012 under the name Zewar Jewellery, Inc. and is a development-stage entity. The Company’s current business plan is to engage in the mining business developing graphite properties located in Namibia. The Company is based in Carson City, Nevada.

On November 14, 2013, the Company consummated transactions pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) dated November 14, 2013 by and among the Company and the stockholders of African Graphite, Inc., a private Nevada corporation (“AGI” and the “AGI Stockholders”) whereby AGI Stockholders transferred 100% of the outstanding shares of common stock of AGI held by them, in exchange for an aggregate of 8,980,047 newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”).

On November 14, 2013, AGI entered into a Stock Purchase Option Agreement (the “Option Agreement”) with NMC Corp., a corporation organized under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada (“NMC”), whereby NMC granted to AGI an option to purchase 90 ordinary shares, par value one Namibian dollar per share, of Gazania Investments Two Hundred and Forty Two (Proprietary) Limited, a corporation organized under the laws of the Republic of Namibia (“Gazania”), representing 90% of the issued and outstanding shares of Gazania, for $240,000. NMC had entered into an option agreement dated March 29, 2013, as amended on November 4, 2013 (the “Centre Agreement”), with Centre for Geoscience Research CC (formerly known as “Industrial Minerals and Rock Research Centre CC”), a company organized under the laws of the Republic of Namibia (“Centre”), whereby Centre agreed to transfer to Gazania 100% undivided interest in the exclusive prospecting license No. 3895 known as AUKAM originally issued to Centre by the government of the Republic of Namibia on April 4, 2011 and renewed on April 4, 2013 (the “License”). The License grants the right to conduct prospecting operations, bulk sampling and pilot production in the license area called AUKAM located in southern Namibia in the Karas Region within the Betaine district. The license area covers about 49,127 hectares. The only mine in Namibia which has produced graphite is situated in the license area. The transfer of the License to Gazania was approved by the Ministry of Mines and Energy of the Republic of Namibia on February 25, 2014.

Under the Option Agreement, AGI was required to pay to NMC $90,000 as an advance payment to be credited towards the purchase price of the Gazania shares. The Company made the advance payment on November 14, 2013. The balance of the purchase price in the amount of $150,000 was paid by AGI upon exercise of the option that was completed on March 14, 2014. As a result, Gazania became a direct 90% owned subsidiary of the Company.

The Company acquired the remaining 10% ownership of Gazania for $15,000 in the third quarter of 2015. As a result, Gazania became a direct 100% owned subsidiary of the Company.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has incurred approximately $ 5,002,965 in accumulated deficit since its inception, and has generated no operating revenue, which could raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

In view of these matters, realization of the assets of the Company is dependent upon the Company’s ability to meet its financial requirements through equity financing and the success of future operations. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.

NOTE 3 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein contain all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary to present fairly the financial position, the results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes hereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2016 included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed on March 31, 2017.  The operating results or cash flows for the interim periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or the full year. 

NOTE 4 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated 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 at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition, Deferred Revenue and Customer Deposits

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition,” when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, collection is reasonably assured and delivery of products has occurred or services have been rendered. The Company did not have product sales for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016.

Gain on the sales of subsidiary Gazania Investments Two Hundred Forty Two (Property) Ltd

The Company received a customer deposit for potential usage of Company’s license in the amount of $177,493 and $132,971 as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The Company recognize the amount of $177,493 as gain on sale of subsidiary by transferring 52% of interest to the joint venture party.

Income Taxes 

Provisions for income taxes are based on taxes payable or refundable and deferred taxes. Deferred taxes are provided on differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements and tax operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are included in the financial statements at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. Assets and liabilities are established for uncertain tax positions taken or positions expected to be taken in income tax returns when such positions are judged to not meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold based on the technical merits of the positions. Estimated interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions are included as a component of general and administrative expense.

Basic and Diluted Loss per Common Share  

Basic loss per common share amounts are computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted loss per share amounts are computed assuming the issuance of common stock for potentially dilutive common stock equivalents. 

F-5

Fair Value of Financial Instruments 

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for accounts payable, and related party payables approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The carrying amounts reported for convertible notes payable approximate fair value based on the value of the common stock into which the notes are convertible. The carrying amounts reported for notes payable approximate fair value because the underlying instruments are at interest rates that approximate current market rates.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling 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 required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, 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. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

● Level 1 – Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company holds. An active market for the asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

● Level 2 – Valuation based on quoted prices in markets that are not active for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

● Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

Financial instruments include cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their fair value due to the short term maturities of these instruments.

The Company has Level 3 financial instrument, an embedded derivative liability (beneficial conversion feature) that is recorded at fair value on periodic basis. The embedded derivative is evaluated under the hierarchy of ASC 480-10, ASC Paragraph 815-25-1 and ASC Subparagraph 815-10-15-74 addressing embedded derivatives. The fair value of such Level 3 financial instrument is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The foregoing Level 3 financial instrument has certain provisions which qualifies to be classified as a liability under ASC 815.

As of March 31, 2017, the following table represents the Company’s fair value hierarchy for items that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Description	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Derivative liability	$	-	$	-	$	46,476

As of December 31, 2016, the following table represents the Company’s fair value hierarchy for items that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements 

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This ASU is intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The provisions of this ASU are effective for years beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This ASU establishes specific guidance to an organization’s management on their responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the organization’s ability to continue as a going concern. The provisions of ASU 2014-15 are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. This ASU is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The objective of ASU 2014-09 is to clarify the principles for recognizing revenue by removing inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements; providing a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues; improving comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions and capital markets; and providing more useful information to users of financial statements through improved revenue disclosure requirements. On August 12, 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, deferring the effective date by one year for ASU No. 2014-09. The provisions of ASU No. 2014-09 will be effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

NOTE 8 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

The Company issued convertible notes payable. The outstanding balance and any accrued interest is due on maturity date or when the cash is available to repay the notes payable. Under the agreement, the notes can be convertible at the holder’s discretion into common shares of the Company’s stock at a 25% discount to the price at the date of exercise.

The Company’s convertible notes payable is as follows:

Convertible Note	Issuance Date	Maturity Date	Interest Rate			Original Borrowing		Balance at March 31, 2017 (unaudited)		Balance at December 31, 2016
Note 1	October 2, 2014	December 31, 2015		7.0	%	$	100,000	$	100,000	$	100,000
Note 2	December 23, 2015	September 23, 2016		16.0	%	$	21,000	$	21,000	$	21,000
Total									121,000		121,000
Debt Discount									-		-
Net balance								$	121,000	$	121,000

The convertible notes with the maturity date that has matured at the time the financial statements are issued continued to accrue interest and no default penalties were incurred. The Company incurred $2,554 and $1,665 of interest expense for the quarter (3 months) ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. No convertible notes were converted as of March 31, 2017 and up to the date the financial statements are issued.

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”) (previously EITF 07-5, “Determining Whether an Instrument (or an Embedded Feature) is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock”), as the convertible note agreement contained certain provision that the convertible note failed to pass the “fixed for fixed” criteria of ASC815, the conversion feature of the convertible debt should have to be bifurcated and recorded separately until the conversion date.

The following table represents fair value of embedded derivative movement from the date of issuance to December 31, 2016:

Embedded Derivative Liabilities	Fair Value at Date of Issuance		Changes in Fair Value			Fair Value at December 31, 2016
Note 1 – Issued in 2014	$	70,334	$	(34,778	)	$	35,556
Note 2 – Issued in 2015	$	10,500	$	(17,800	)	$	3,200

NOTE 9 – PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

The Company recognizes the tax effects of transactions in the year in which such transactions enter into the determination of net income regardless of when reported for tax purposes. Deferred taxes are provided in the financial statements under FASB 740-10-65-1 to give effect to the temporary differences which may arise from differences in the bases of fixed assets, depreciation methods and allowances based on the income taxes expected to be payable in future years. Minimal development stage deferred tax assets arising as a result of net operating loss carry-forwards have been offset completely by a valuation allowance due to the uncertainty of their utilization in future periods.

The Company recognizes interest accrued relative to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expense. During the period from August 28, 2013 (inception) to March 31, 2017, the Company recognized no income tax related interest and penalties. The Company had no accruals for income tax related interest and penalties at March 31, 2017.

NOTE 12 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is subject to various legal proceedings from time to time as part of its business. As of March 31,2017, the Company was not currently party to any legal proceedings or threatened legal proceedings, the adverse outcome of which, individually or in the aggregate, it believes would have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition and results of operations. 

NOTE 13 –RESTATEMENT of PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Subsequent to filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2017 (the “Form 10-Q”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 22, 2017, Next Graphite, Inc. (the “Company”) determined that a account classification error occurred in its gain recognition of the sale of subsidiary for the period ended March 31, 2017.

In accounting for the Company’s gain on the sale of 52% interest of subsidiary Gazania Investments Two Hundred and Forty Two (Proprietary) Limited for the period ended March 31, 2017, the Company reclass the deposit from investment into additional paid in capital which the joint venture partner fulfilled and achieved the certain milestone for the period ended March 31, 2017. Upon correcting for the previously used additional paid in capital, the Company should recognize the gain on the sales of subsidiary as income and has been $177,493 higher than previously reported.

The Company has restated its previously issued financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2017, to correct the classification error related to gain on the sale of subsidiary.

The impact of the restatements is reflected below for the periods indicated:

NO STATEMENTS CONTAINED IN THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION SHOULD BE CONSTRUED AS A GUARANTEE OR ASSURANCE OF FUTURE PERFORMANCE OR FUTURE RESULTS.

Plan of Operations

The Company’s current business plan is to engage in the mining business developing graphite properties located in Namibia. As previously reported in the Company’s 2015 Form 10-K filed on April 14, 2016, the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (the “JVA”) with Micron Investments Pty. Ltd. a private company based in Namibia (“Micron”) on June 8, 2015, which was subsequently amended on July 10 and July 17, 2015. Pursuant to the JVA, as amended, the Company and Micron entered into a Farm-Out Agreement on September 12, 2016. The JVA and Farm-Out Agreement require Micron to pay the Company $180,000 in cash by the end of the Farm-Out period, and to pay $1.1 million to build and operate a graphite processing plant on the Company’s Aukam site, and to cover all related operational costs until 5 months after completion of the plant. The plant construction is expected to take roughly ten months. In exchange, Micron will receive, upon achievement of certain milestones, up to a 63% interest in the mining and mineral rights held by the Company at its Aukam site. The Company plans to retain a minimum of 37% interest in the mining and mineral rights held by the Company at its Aukam site, after having purchased the 10% interest held by the Centre for Geoscience Research CC pursuant to a purchase agreement with Gazania Investments Two Hundred and Forty Two Ltd., and Centre for Geosciences Research Close Corporation, dated August 6, 2015. As a result of this acquisition, the Company gained100% ownership rights to the prospecting license to the Aukam property.

As previously reported in the Company’s 2015 Form 10-K filed on April 14, 2016, in July of 2015 Micron was acquired by CKR Carbon Corporation, a Canadian based corporation, formerly known as Caribou King Resources, Ltd. (“CKR”). The Company signed a Farm Out agreement with CKR on September 12, 2016 that detailed work that the two companies would accomplish to get to the production phase of processed graphite on the site.

On February 24, 2017, The Board of Direct of the Company has agreed to transfer 52% ownership of Gazania Investments Two Hundred Forty Two (Property) Ltd to CKR Carbon Corporation, since has CKR has fulfilled spending terms in those agreement to ear those 52 shares to date.

1

The JVA and Farm-Out Agreement call for CKR and the Company, prior to commencing the manufacturing of processed graphite, to begin processing immediately available surface dumps, which contain large quantities of high-grade graphite lumps, and develop its three existing adits as well as other locations on the Company’s 96,000 acre Aukam site. Favorable laboratory results were realized in 2015 and engineering and research continued on the adits in 2016.  

The joint venture has completed a bulk-sampling program at Aukam, and the JV has a definitive agreement to sell the graphitic material produced during the program. Findings to date have reinforced Next’s intent to put the historical mine back into production. The Company is working to transition from its current exploratory license to a full mining license and build a new graphite processing facility. Progress towards obtaining that license was significant by the end of 2016 with a Technical Report finished in September and both an Environmental Impact Analysis and Feasibility Study well underway. 

Prior to entering into the JVA, the Company was constrained by a lack of working capital. That situation could continue until the Company generates its first revenues. The Company anticipates that it will need to raise additional capital until then. There can be no assurance that such capital will be available to the Company when needed.

Recent Developments

Our JV completed a ground electromagnetic (EM) survey in early 2017 that showed a 700 meter long anomaly extending east-northeast along strike from the known graphite deposit at Aukam. It suggests the possibility of additional near surface graphite mineralization.

The Company was constrained by a lack of working capital in 2016. However, it believes that sales orders commencing in the near future, along with financial commitments of our JV partner, CKR, provides the funding necessary for the Company to (a) build our initial 5,000 tonne/year processing facility, which the Company believes should be operational in the fourth quarter of 2017 or the first fiscal quarter of 2018, (b) allow mining operations to commence in earnest, and (c) provide the Company with adequate working capital to sustain and build operations.

Results of Operations

Operating expenses were $106,413 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $121,147 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase was primarily due to increase in professional fee.

Other income (expense) -net, were $165,353 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to other income (expense) -net were ($179,621) for the three months ended March 31, 2016. 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2017, we had $9,485 in cash.

The Company does not currently have sufficient resources to cover ongoing expenses and expansion. Since August 29, 2013 (inception) to March 31, 2017, we consummated various private placements of our securities and convertible notes to assist in funding its working capital needs. We plan on raising additional funds from investors to implement our business model. In the event we are unsuccessful, this will have a negative impact on our operations.

If the Company cannot find sources of additional financing to fund its working capital needs, the Company will be unable to obtain sufficient capital resources to operate our business. We cannot assure you that we will be able to access any financing in sufficient amounts or at all when needed. Our inability to obtain sufficient working capital funding will have an immediate material adverse effect upon our financial condition and our business.

Critical Accounting Policies

Development stage entity

The Company is considered a development stage entity, as defined in FASB ASC 915, because since inception it has not commenced operations that have resulted in significant revenue and the Company’s efforts have been devoted primarily to activities related to raising capital.

Going concern

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of obligations in the normal course of business. However, it has $9,485 in cash, has losses and an accumulated deficit, and a working capital deficiency. The Company does not currently have any revenue generating operations. These conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

In view of these matters, continuation as a going concern is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company’s ability to, meets its financial requirements, raise additional capital, and the success of its future operations. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amount and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company not continue as a going concern.

Management believes they can raise the appropriate funds needed to support their business plan and acquire an operating company with positive cash flow. Management intends to seek new capital from owners and related parties to provide needed funds.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as “special purpose entities” (SPEs).

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Securities and Exchange Commission defines the term “disclosure controls and procedures” to mean controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company maintains such a system of controls and procedures in an effort to ensure that all information which it is required to disclose in the reports it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified under the SEC’s rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to principal executive and principal financial officers to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the material weaknesses disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-K filed on April 14, 2016, continue to exist and accordingly, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
