NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Nascent Biotech, Inc. (“Nascent” or the “Company”) was incorporated on March 3, 2014 under the laws of the State of Nevada. The Company is actively developing its primary asset Pritumumab for the treatment of brain cancer and pancreatic cancer. Nascent is also actively researching other cancers that have a high probability of benefiting from the therapeutic effects of Pritumumab because they share a common target. Pritumumab has shown to be very effective at low doses in previous clinical studies in Japan. Nascent is a pre-clinical stage biopharmaceutical company that focuses on biologic drug candidates that are preparing for initial clinical testing for the treatment of brain and pancreatic cancer.
On March 31, 2017 the Company filed its IND submission with the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) for clearance to begin Phase I clinical trials. On December 7, 2018 the Company received a letter from the FDA allowing it to use a specific lot of drug substance to begin phase 1 clinical trials. The FDA also requested additional data to remove the partial clinical hold. The Company is responding to additional data requests from the FDA requiring additional testing of the product and additional materials to answer specific questions from the FDA.
On July 10, 2019 the Company filed an amended articles of Incorporation designating 1,500,000 shares of preferred stock as Series A Convertible preferred shares convertible into common stock.
On August 9, 2019 the Company signed a contract for clinical phase 1 studies with west coast clinic. The Company received its IRB clearance allowing the opening of clinical trials.
NOTE 2- BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Company has elected a fiscal year ending on March 31.
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of the Company for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2019. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented herein. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent quarters or for an entire year.
Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share calculations are calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. During the nine months ended December 31, 2019 the Company had a net loss so the options and warrants outstanding were not part the loss per share calculation as they would be antidilutive. Diluted income (loss) per share calculations includes the dilutive effect of warrants and options on the weighted average of the per share calculation.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees and consultants in accordance with FASB ASC 718. Stock-based compensation to employees is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite employee service period. The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based payments using the Black Scholes option-pricing model for common stock options and warrants and the closing price of the Company’s common stock for common share issuances.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. The main provisions of ASU No. 2016-02 require management to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for all leases. ASU 2016-02 retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases are substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases in the previous release’s guidance. The result of retaining a distinction between finance leases and operating leases is that under the lessee accounting model, the effect of leases in the statement of comprehensive income and the statement of cash flows is largely unchanged from previous U.S. GAAP. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.
NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has a working capital deficit and has incurred losses from operations. The Company has no revenue to cover its operating costs and the Company will incur additional expenses in the future developing their product. These factors raise substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company engages in research and development activities that must be satisfied in cash secured through outside funding. The Company may offer noncash consideration and seek equity lines as a means of financing its operations. If the Company is unable to obtain revenue producing contracts or financing or if the revenue or financing it does obtain is insufficient to cover any operating losses it may incur, it may substantially curtail or terminate its operations or seek other business opportunities through strategic alliances, acquisitions or other arrangements that may dilute the interests of existing stockholders. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
On September 1, 2015, the Company entered five-year employment contracts with three of its officers and directors. Under the terms of the agreements the Company issued shares of common stock to the officers and directors equaling 11% of the outstanding shares of the Company as of the date of the contracts. As additional future shares are issued, the officers and directors are entitled to additional shares so their aggregate ownership percentage remains at 11% of the outstanding shares of the Company. The following table sets forth the shares earned under these contracts as of December 31, 2019:

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERTIONS
This report contains forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those set forth on the forward-looking statements because of the risks set forth in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, general economic conditions, and changes in the assumptions used in making such forward looking statements.
Nascent Biotech, Inc (“Nascent” or the “Company”) was incorporated on March 3, 2014 under the laws of the State of Nevada. The Company is actively developing its primary asset Pritumumab for the treatment of brain cancer and pancreatic cancer. Nascent is also actively researching other cancers that have a high probability of benefiting from the therapeutic effects of Pritumumab because they share a common target. Pritumumab has shown to be very effective at low doses in previous clinical studies in Japan.
Nascent is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company that develops monoclonal antibodies for the treatment of various forms of cancer. The Company focuses on biologic drug candidates that are undergoing or have already completed initial clinical testing for the treatment of cancer and then seek to further develop those drug candidates for commercial use. Nascent currently is developing for the treatment of brain cancer and pancreatic cancer both of which we hold orphan drug status granted by the FDA.
Overview
The Company is focused on developing pritumumab for the treatment of patients with brain cancer malignancies such as gliomas and astrocytomas. Pritumumab is a fully-human monoclonal antibody that has been tested on 249 brain cancer patients and reviewed by the Ministry of Health and Welfare in Japan. The objective of the Phase I and Phase II human clinical trial was to determine the safety of pritumumab in humans and its efficacy in eliminating tumors or reducing tumor size in patients with brain cancer. These clinical trials were conducted at 22 clinical sites within Japan during a 14-year time (1988 to 2002). Except for 17 patients that were treated for a period of four weeks in a Phase I (safety) study (1mg per week dosage), all patients were dosed at 1 mg, either once or twice per week, for 24 weeks, and were evaluated for both safety and efficacy. The sponsor of those trials was the Hagiwara Institute of Health (HIH). Manufacturing of Pritumumab was done by Japan Pharmaceutical Development Company-a pharmaceutical contract manufacturing company, and all pre-clinical development work was performed at HIH. At the end of the Phase II trial, the HIH was approved for expanded Phase III trials in humans; however, the founder of HIH passed away and the clinical development of Pritumumab was suspended. A concern at that time was the ability to manufacture enough pritumumab to continue clinical trials. The product has never been approved for sale in Japan or elsewhere. Current therapeutic strategies for brain cancer include the use of the chemotherapy, surgical intervention or radiation therapy. Because these treatments have marginal outcomes there exists a need to develop safer, more effective drugs. Temodar-the most commonly used Chemotherapeutic drug used to treat brain cancer, is attributed to only median rates of survival and many brain tumors are eligible for surgery. Moreover, even when removed, most brain tumors come back within one year post-operation. Today, with current standards of care, less than 60% of all brain cancer patients will live past the first year after diagnosis, and less than 35% of patients will live to five years. Glioblastoma, a particularly aggressive form of brain cancer that constitutes 42% of ALL brain and other nervous system cancers, has survival rates of 36.5% at 1 year and 5% at 5 years. (SEER Registry Data, September 15th, 2016 (Central Brain Tumor Registry of the United States).
On March 31, 2017 the Company filed its IND submission with the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for clearance to begin Phase I clinical trials. On December 7, 2018 the Company received a letter from the FDA allowing it to use a specific lot of drug substance to begin phase 1 clinical trials. The FDA also placed the trial on partial clinical hold, pending receipt of additional requested data. The Company is finalizing the process of responding to additional data requests from the FDA - required additional testing of the product and additional materials to answer specific questions.

Results of Operations
The Company recorded zero of revenue during the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2019, and 2018, respectively.
General and administrative expenses for the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2019 was $243,307 and $713,925 compared to $231,570 and $857,870 in 2018. This decrease in expenses for the nine months ended December 31, 2019 over the same period in 2018 was due to a lower cost for IND filing of the Company in 2019 over 2018.
Research and development expenses for the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2019 was $124,925 and $255,578 compared to $25,000 and $176,439 in the same period in 2018. This increase in expenses for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2019 over the same period in 2018 reflected increased testing required by the FDA as part of the partial clinical trial hold.
Total other expense incurred in the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2019 was $1,920 and 6,243, compared to other income of $5 and $27 the same periods in 2018. Other expense consisted of interest expense from preferred shares and accounts payables.
For the three and nine month periods ended December 31, 2019, our net loss was $370,152 and $975,746 compared to a net loss of $256,565 and $1,034,282 for the same periods in 2018. The difference between the periods relates to lower general and administrative costs in not preparing the IND in for the nine months in 2019 compared to the same period in 2018.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s liquidity and capital is dependent on the capital it can raise to continue the Company’s testing and clinical trials of its product. The Company projects it must raise approximately $10-15 million to complete its Phase I and Phase II clinical studies.
There are no agreements or understandings about future loans by or with the officers, directors, principals, affiliates, or shareholders of the Company. The Company will continue to raise outside capital through loans, equity sales and possible licensing agreements. These factors raise substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern
At December 31, 2019, the Company had negative working capital of $952,509. Current assets consist of cash of $1,819. Current liabilities as of the same date were $954,328 consisting of accounts payable of $839,798 of which approximately $350,000 was cost overrun on the IND submission plus due to related parties of $114,530.
Net cash used in operating activities in the nine months period ended December 31, 2019 was $255,724 compared to net cash used of $489,974 in the same period in 2018. The variance between the same periods in 2019 and 2018 relates mainly to a lower loss in the nine months period ended December 31, 2019 over the same period in 2018.
Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months period ended December 31, 2019 was $126,071 compared to $476,285 in the same period in 2018. Cash provided was a result of the conversion of warrants to common stock of $1,071 and from the sale of convertible preferred stock for $110,000 in 2019 plus the same of common stock for cash of $15,000 compared to warrant conversion of $83,285 and the sale of common stock and warrants of $393,000 in the same period in 2018
As of December 31, 2019, the Company had total assets of $1,819 and total liabilities of $954,328. Stockholders’ deficit as of December 31, 2019 was $952,509. This compares to a stockholders’ deficit of $482,164 as of March 31, 2019. Liabilities increased in 2019 due mainly to an increase in accounts payable and due to related parties during this period versus the same period in 2018 but was partly offset by the conversion by four related parties of $282,000 due the related parties converted to common stock.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We had no off-balance sheet arrangements or guarantees of third party obligations at December 31, 2019.
Inflation
We believe that inflation has not had a significant impact on our operations since inception.
ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not applicable.
ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Under the supervision and the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation as of December 31, 2019, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2019, Such conclusion reflects the identification of material weakness as follows: (1) lack of accounting proficiency of our chief executive officer who is our sole officer and our principal accounting officer which has resulted in a reliance on part-time outside consultants to perform substantially all of our accounting functions, (2) a lack of adequate segregation of duties and necessary corporate accounting resources in our financial reporting process and accounting function, and (3) lack of control procedures that include multiple levels of review. Until we can remedy these material weaknesses, we have engaged third party consultants and accounting firm to assist with financial reporting.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended December 31, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION | |
Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share | Basic net income (loss) per share calculations are calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. During the nine months ended December 31, 2019 the Company had a net loss so the options and warrants outstanding were not part the loss per share calculation as they would be antidilutive. Diluted income (loss) per share calculations includes the dilutive effect of warrants and options on the weighted average of the per share calculation. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. The main provisions of ASU No. 2016-02 require management to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for all leases. ASU 2016-02 retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases are substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases in the previous release’s guidance. The result of retaining a distinction between finance leases and operating leases is that under the lessee accounting model, the effect of leases in the statement of comprehensive income and the statement of cash flows is largely unchanged from previous U.S. GAAP. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures. |
Stock-Based Compensation | The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees and consultants in accordance with FASB ASC 718. Stock-based compensation to employees is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite employee service period. The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based payments using the Black Scholes option-pricing model for common stock options and warrants and the closing price of the Company’s common stock for common share issuances. |
