CURE PHARMACEUTICAL HOLDING CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2018

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Cure Pharmaceutical Holding Corp (the “Company”), formerly known as Makkanotti Group Corp, was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 15, 2014. The Company was formed to engage in the business of manufacturing food paper bags in Nicosia, Cyprus. On November 7, 2016, the Company changed its name to Cure Pharmaceutical Holding Corp.

On November 7, 2016, the Company, in a reverse take-over transaction, acquired Cure Pharmaceutical Corporation (“Cure Pharmaceutical”), a specialty pharmaceutical and bioscience company based in California that specializes in drug delivery technologies, by executing a Share Exchange Agreement and Conversion Agreement (“Exchange Agreement”) by and among the Company and a holder of a majority of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the registrant prior to the closing (the “Majority Stockholder”), on the one hand, and Cure Pharmaceutical, a California corporation, all of the shareholders of Cure Pharmaceutical’s issued and outstanding share capital (the “Cure Pharm Shareholders”) and the holders of certain convertible promissory notes of Cure Pharmaceutical (“Cure Pharm Noteholders”), on the other hand. Hereinafter, this share exchange transaction is described as the “Share Exchange.” As a result of the Share Exchange, Cure Pharmaceutical became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Cure Pharm Shareholders and Cure Pharm Noteholders became the controlling shareholders of the Company.

For accounting purposes, Cure Pharmaceutical shall be the surviving entity. The transaction is accounted for using the reverse acquisition method of accounting. As a result of the recapitalization and change in control, Cure Pharmaceutical is the acquiring entity in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations.

Cure Pharmaceutical Corporation is a specialty pharmaceutical and bioscience company with a focus in drug delivery technologies. Cure leverages novel drug delivery technologies to develop and commercialize new applications of proven therapeutics through Oral Thin Film (“OTF”) via our proprietary patented CureFilm™ Technology as well as through transdermal applications. Our micro encapsulation of drug actives in our CureFilm™ Technology allows for a higher volume of an active and if required, multiple actives to be produced on a single oral thin film strip.

The Company is focused on partnering with pharmaceutical and biotech companies seeking to deliver drug actives utilizing and benefitting from our proprietary OTF and transdermal applications and when preferable to take our own products from clinical process to commercialization. We are focused on both the human and veterinary prescription, OTC and nutraceutical markets. Cure represents the complete solution for OTF drug delivery therapeutics from inception to finished product utilizing our CGMP/FDA registered manufacturing facility and processes.

In July 2017, the Company, Therapix Biosciences Ltd. (“Therapix”), a specialty clinical-stage pharmaceutical company dedicated to the development of cannabinoid-based drugs headquartered in Israel, and Assuta Medical Centers, Ltd., a medical services center located in Israel, entered into a nonbinding memorandum of understanding to collaborate to advance, research, develop and commercialize potential therapeutic products in the fields of personalized medicine and cannabinoids. On October 27, 2017, the Company entered into a development agreement with Therapix where the Company will formulate and develop pharmaceutical products using Therapix’s proprietary compounds while utilizing the Company’s proprietary OTF technology.

Consistent with our mission of improving the lives of all people in need, regardless of geography or economic status, we have made our technology available to a private company, Oak Therapeutics (“Oak”), that is developing novel drug formulations for patients in developing nations (“Territory”). On November 10, 2017, we received 269,000 shares of Oak as consideration for an exclusive license to our patents rights in the Territory, along with a royalty-free non-exclusive license to any improvements made by Oak. As a result of this transaction, we own approximately 63% of Oak’s outstanding shares and have consolidated Oak’s financial statements as of the fourth quarter 2017. Oak has completed a Phase I Small Business Innovative Research Contract (“SBIR”) from the National Institutes of Health to develop a formulation for 300mg of Isoniazid in a rapidly dissolving film as an anti-tuberculosis treatment option. Oak is currently in the application process for Phase II of the SBIR program to continue its research and development and focus on manufacturing scale up, clinical trials and commercialization.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principal of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CURE Pharmaceutical Holding Corp (“CPHC”), its wholly-owned subsidiary, CURE Pharmaceutical Corporation (“CURE”) and its majority owned subsidiary Oak Therapeutics, Inc. (“OAK”), collectively referred to as (“CURE”, “we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company” All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s film strip product represents the principal operations of the Company.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not contain all information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all the adjustments necessary (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) to present the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2018, and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included in Form 10-K for the fiscal period ended December 31, 2017 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 26, 2018.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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. These estimates and assumptions also affect the reported amounts of revenues, costs and expenses during the reporting period. Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all cash on hand and in banks, including accounts in book overdraft positions, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had no cash equivalents. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in banks insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) in accounts that at times may be in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000 per bank. The Company minimizes this risk by placing its cash deposits with major financial institutions.

Investment in Associates

An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence through a joint venture. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but not control or joint control over those policies.

The results of assets and liabilities of associates are incorporated in the condensed consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, investments in associates are carried in the consolidated balance sheet at cost as adjusted for post-acquisition changes in the Company’s share of the net assets of the associate, less any impairment in the value of the investment. Losses of an associate in excess of the Company’s interest in that associate are not recognized. Additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized, only to the extent that the Company has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

7

Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Company’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the associate recognized at the date of acquisition is recognized as goodwill. The goodwill is included within the carrying amount of the investment.

On January 8, 2016, the Company received 50% ownership in Cure Innovations, Inc (“CI”). CI was created in 2015 by IncuBrands Studio, Inc (“IncuBrands”). The Company and IncuBrands each own 50% of the common stock of CI. The Company and IncuBrands entered into a Joint Venture agreement in 2013 to distribute several OTF products utilizing IncuBrands marketing and contacts in various industries as well as utilize the Company’s technology and capabilities of manufacturing OTF’s.

On December 6, 2016, the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (“Joint Venture”) with Pace Wellness, Inc. (“Pace”) to jointly develop three Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (“API”) within the nonprescription and/or Over-the-Counter (OTC) medicines specifically utilizing the Company’s patented and proprietary CUREFilm™ Technology. The three API’s to be jointly developed are Diphenhydramine HCL, Omeprazole and a third API to be determined at a later date (“Products”). Pace shall be the exclusive global distributor of the Products under the Solves Strips® branding or other private or branded labels. All benefits, advantages, and liabilities derived from, or incurred in respect of the Joint Venture shall be borne by the parties in proportion of their respective participating interests of 50/50 equal interest. As of March 31, 2018, the Company has only contributed $5,000 to the Joint Venture.

Property and Equipment

The Company capitalizes expenditures related to property and equipment, subject to a minimum rule, that have a useful life greater than one year for: (1) assets purchased; (2) existing assets that are replaced, improved or the useful lives have been extended; or (3) all land, regardless of cost. Acquisitions of new assets, additions, replacements and improvements (other than land) costing less than the minimum rule in addition to maintenance and repair costs, including any planned major maintenance activities, are expensed as incurred. Depreciation has been provided using the straight-line method on the following estimated useful lives:

Manufacturing equipment	5-7 Years
Computer and other equipment	3-7 Years
Leasehold Improvements	Lesser of useful life or the term of the lease

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are generally unsecured. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based on the age of outstanding invoices and management’s evaluation of collectability. Accounts are written off after all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted and management concludes that likelihood of collection is remote. Any future recoveries are applied against the allowance for doubtful accounts.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets include equipment and intangible assets other than those with indefinite lives. We assess the carrying value of our long-lived asset groups when indicators of impairment exist and recognize an impairment loss when the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable when compared to undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset.

Indicators of impairment include significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in our use of the assets or in our business strategy, loss of or changes in customer relationships and significant negative industry or economic trends. When indications of impairment arise for a particular asset or group of assets, we assess the future recoverability of the carrying value of the asset (or asset group) based on an undiscounted cash flow analysis. If carrying value exceeds projected, net, undiscounted cash flows, an additional analysis is performed to determine the fair value of the asset (or asset group), typically a discounted cash flow analysis, and an impairment charge is recorded for the excess of carrying value over fair value. There was no impairment on our long-lived assets during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and for the year ended December 31, 2017.

8

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, “Revenue Recognition,” when there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, title and risk of loss have passed, delivery has occurred, or the services have been rendered, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured. Title and risk of loss generally pass to our customers upon shipment. In limited circumstances where either title or risk of loss pass upon destination or acceptance or when collection is not reasonably assured, we defer revenue recognition until such events occur. We derive revenues from two primary sources: products and services. Product revenue includes the shipment of product according to the agreement with our customers. Services include research and development contracts for the development of OTF products utilizing our CureFilm™ Technology or our other proprietary technologies. Rarely, contracts with customers contain multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, the Company accounts for individual performance obligations separately if they are distinct. The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis. Standalone selling prices are typically estimated based on observable transactions when these services are sold on a standalone basis.

The Company’s consulting research and development income include services for the development of OTF products utilizing our CureFilm™ Technology. Most of our development contracts have four phases. Revenue is recognized based on progress toward completion of the performance obligation in each phase. The method to measure progress toward completion requires judgment and is based on the nature of the products or services to be provided. The Company generally uses the input method to measure progress for its contracts because it best depicts the transfer of assets to the customer, which occurs as the Company incurs costs for the contracts. Under the cost-to-cost measure of progress, the progress toward completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation. Revenue is recorded proportionally as costs are incurred. Costs to fulfill these obligations mainly include materials, labor, supplies and consultants.

Deferred revenue is shown separately in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. At March 31, 2018 we had deferred revenue of $396,484. At December 31, 2017, we had deferred revenue of $361,462.

Advertising Expense

The Company expenses marketing, promotions and advertising costs as incurred. Such costs are included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying statements of operations. The Company did not incur advertising costs for the three months period ended March 31, 2018. The Company recorded advertising costs of $1,876 for the three month period ended March 31, 2017.

Research and Development

Costs incurred in connection with the development of new products and processes are charged to research and development expenses as incurred. The Company recorded research and development expenses of $426,529 and $219,620 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

9

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is “more likely-than-not” that a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

The Company generated a deferred tax asset through net operating loss carry-forward. However, a valuation allowance of 100% has been established due to the uncertainty of the Company’s realization of the net operating loss carry forward prior to its expiration.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.

Pursuant to ASC Topic 505-50, for share-based payments to consultants and other third-parties, compensation expense is determined at the “measurement date.” The expense is recognized over the vesting period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company initially records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date.

Convertible Debentures

Beneficial Conversion Feature

If the conversion features of conventional convertible debt provides for a rate of conversion that is below market value, this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). A BCF is recorded by the Company as a debt discount pursuant to ASC Topic 470-20 ““Debt with Conversion and Other Options.” In those circumstances, the convertible debt is recorded net of the discount related to the BCF and the Company amortizes the discount to interest expense over the life of the debt using the effective interest method.

Derivative Liabilities

ASC 815-40 (formerly SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities”), requires that embedded derivative instruments be bifurcated and assessed, along with free-standing derivative instruments such as warrants, on their issuance date and in accordance with ASC 815-40-15 (formerly EITF 00-19 “Accounting for derivative financial instruments indexed to, and potentially settled in, a company’s own stock”) to determine whether they should be considered a derivative liability and measured at their fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing formula and present value pricing. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company adjusted its derivative liability to its fair value, and reflected the change in fair value, in its consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, which defines fair value as used in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements.

The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

10

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable

Level 3 — inputs that are unobservable (for example cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)

The Company has no assets or liabilities valued at fair value on a recurring basis.

Basic and diluted loss per share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares, which consist of stock options and warrants, have been excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation because their effect is anti-dilutive.

	March 31, 2018
Number of common stock shares issued and outstanding		23,951,252
Number of common stock shares from conversion of convertible notes		307,904
Number of common stock shares from exercise of warrants		1,695,000
Total fully-diluted common stock shares		25,954,156

Going Concern

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated deficit at March 31, 2018 of $20,770,435. The Company had a working deficit of $3,292,165 as of March 31, 2018. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of the financial statements. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it establishes a revenue stream and becomes profitable. The Company is continually analyzing its current costs and is attempting to make additional cost reductions where possible. We expect that we will continue to generate losses from operations throughout 2018.

Historically, the Company has had operating losses and negative cash flows from operations which cast significant doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company will need to raise capital in order to fund its operations. This need may be adversely impacted by uncertain market conditions and changes in the regulatory environment. To address its financing requirements, the Company intends to seek financing through debt and equity issuances to existing stockholders.

Specifically, management has identified that a minimum of $4,000,000 of capital is needed over the next 12 months in order sustain operations. These capital needs take into account, among other things, management’s plans to advance intellectual property, maintenance of patents, upgrades for manufacturing and to hire personnel for business development. Management has outlined a plan to raise between $6,000,000 to $8,000,000 in capital over the next 12 months through the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock to accredited investors. Management believes that the capital raised through these methods will be sufficient to sustain operations for the next 12 months. However, the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty at this time.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of the financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Recently Issued Standards

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The purpose is to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information. This ASU is effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018. Early adoption is not permitted except for limited provisions. The Company does not expect the adoption of this amendment to have a material effect on its financial condition and results of operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02—Leases (Topic 842), requiring lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with the exception of short-term leases. For lessees, leases will continue to be classified as either operating or finance leases in the income statement. The effective date of the new standard for public companies is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition and requires application of the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The Company is evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The new standard requires recognition of the income tax effects of vested or settled awards in the income statement and involves several other 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. This new standard became effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or statements of cash flows upon adoption.

In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients”, to clarify certain core recognition principles including collectability, sales tax presentation, noncash consideration, contract modifications and completed contracts at transition and disclosures no longer required if the full retrospective transition method is adopted. The effective date and transition requirements for these amendments are annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods therein, and that would also permit public entities to elect to adopt the amendments as of the original effective date as applicable to reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The new guidance allows for the amendment to be applied either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The adoption of ASU 2016-12 did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August, 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force) (“ASU 2016-15”). The amendments in ASU 2016-15 address eight specific cash flow issues and apply to all entities that are required to present a statement of cash flows under ASC Topic 230, Statement of Cash Flows. The amendments in ASU 2016-15 are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption during an interim period. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

12

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. This new standard clarifies the definition of a business and provides a screen to determine when an integrated set of assets and activities is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. This new standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2018; however, early adoption is permitted with prospective application to any business development transaction. There are various other updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation: Scope of Modification Accounting, which provides clarification on when modification accounting should be used for changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. This ASU does not change the accounting for modifications but clarifies that modification accounting guidance should only be applied if there is a change to the value, vesting conditions or award classification and would not be required if the changes are considered non-substantive. The amendments of this ASU are effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2017-09 did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

There are various other updates recently issued, however, they are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE 9 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITY

The following table summarizes fair value measurements by level at March 31, 2018 for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

	Level I		Level II		Level III			Total
Derivative liability	$	-	$	-	$	(65,961	)	$	(65,961	)

The following table summarizes fair value measurements by level at December 31, 2017 for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

	Level I		Level II		Level III			Total
Derivative liability	$	-	$	-	$	(90,738	)	$	(90,378	)

The Company has issued convertible promissory notes during 2017. The convertible notes require us to record the value of the conversion feature as a liability, at fair value, pursuant to ASC 815, including provisions in the notes that protect the holders from declines in the Company’s stock price, which is considered outside the control of the Company. The derivative liabilities are marked-to-market each reporting period and changes in fair value are recorded as a non-operating gain or loss in our statement of operations, until they are completely settled. The fair value of the conversion feature is determined each reporting period using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and is affected by changes in inputs to that model including our stock price, expected stock price volatility, interest rates and expected term. The assumptions used in valuing the derivative liability during 2018 were as follows:

	March 31, 2018
Significant assumptions (weighted-average):
Risk-free interest rate at grant date		2.56	%
Expected stock price volatility		126.00	%
Expected dividend payout		-
Expected option life (in years)		1
Expected forfeiture rate		0	%

The following is a reconciliation of the derivative liability for 2018:

	March 31, 2018

NOTE 12 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation:

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. The only significant matter of which the Company is aware of is discussed below.

On May 22, 2017, Sandy Sierra Garate (“Applicant”), an employee of the Company, filed an application for benefits due to serious and willful misconduct of the employer pursuant to labor code section 4553 with the State of California Workers’ Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB Case No: ADJ 10686812) resulting in injury arising out of and in the course of the Applicant’s employment on August 5, 2016. The Applicant is requesting relief in this matter for a one half increase in all compensation recoverable in connection with the injury of August 5, 2016, for the allowance of costs and expenses in an amount to be determined and for such further relief as is deemed appropriate. The Company is currently unable to determine what additional expenses will be incurred in order to defend this matter. As such, the Company cannot determine whether there is a reasonable possibility that a loss will be incurred nor can it estimate the range of any such potential loss. Accordingly, the Company has not accrued an amount for any potential loss associated with this action.

The Board of Directors have determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to provide an additional incentive for certain employees, including executive officers, and non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company by granting to them awards with respect to the common stock of the Company pursuant to the Plan. On April 6, 2018, the Company awarded 500,000 Restricted Common Stock (“RCS”), 1,251,700 Nonstatutory Stock Options (“NSO”) and 804,000 Incentive Stock Options (“ISO”) to employees, including executive officers, non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company, members of the Advisory Board Committee and consultants at a $0.74 price per share.

On April 15, 2018, the Company amended six convertible promissory notes totaling $1,100,000 to extend the maturity dates to May 31, 2018. For extending the maturity date, the Company granted an additional 275,000 warrants to purchase common stock of the Company at a strike price of $1.00 per share. In addition, the Company extended the term of the warrant agreements for one additional year for each of the convertible promissory notes. On April 23, 2018, the Company repaid two of these convertible promissory notes totaling $250,000.

On April 24, 2018, the Company received in total $500,000 (“Investment Amount”) by issuing a convertible promissory note (“Convertible Note”) to a Company, Therapix Biosciences Ltd., (“Investor”) that is due April 30, 2019 (“Maturity Date”). The Convertible Note shall accrue interest at 9% per annum and is unsecured. Unless earlier converted, at the election of the Investor, the entire then outstanding Investment Amount shall be converted into that number of shares of the most senior class of shares of the Company existing at the time of such conversion, at a price per share (the “Voluntary Conversion PPS”) equal to 75% of the average of the closing prices of the Company’s Common Stock on the OTC Market (or any other market on which the common stock of the Company is then listed for trading) over the thirty (30) consecutive trading days prior to the delivery of the notice of conversion by the Investor to the Company, or, if at the time of such conversion the shares of the Company’s Common Stock are not listed for trading, then the entire then outstanding Investment Amount shall be converted into that number of shares of the most senior class of shares of the Company existing at the time of such conversion, at a price per share equal to 75% of the fair market value of such Common Stock as shall be determined by the Board of Directors based on, among others, a valuation prepared by an independent third party and which shall have been submitted to the Company not more than 90 days prior to the date of such determination by the Board of Directors. In the event of the consummation by the Company, on or before the Maturity Date, of a transaction or series of related transactions in which the Company issues equity securities of the Company in consideration of at least US$4,000,000 (a “Financing”), the then outstanding Investment Amount not previously converted hereunder shall be automatically converted, immediately prior to (but conditioned upon) the consummation of such Financing, into such number of shares (or a sub-class thereof) issued by the Company in the Financing, equal to the outstanding Investment Amount divided by a price per share equal to 75% of the lowest price per share paid to the Company in the Financing. In the event the Financing is not consummated by the Maturity Date, then the outstanding Investment Amount as of the Maturity Date not previously converted hereunder shall be automatically converted, on the Maturity Date, into such number of shares (or a sub-class thereof) issued by the Company in the Financing, equal to the outstanding Investment Amount divided by the Voluntary Conversion PPS.

Payment to convertible note holders.

On April 30, 2018, the Company paid $10,000 for a Convertible Promissory Note (“Note”) from Oak Therapeutics, Inc. (“Oak”), a subsidiary of the Company, that is due April 30, 2019. The Note shall accrue interest at 9% per annum and is unsecured. The entire outstanding Note balance and any unpaid accrued interest can be converted into common stock shares of Oak at price per share of $0.52.

BUSINESS

CURE Pharmaceutical Holding Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 15, 2014. The Company was formerly named Makkanotti Group Corp. which was formed to engage in the business of manufacturing food paper bags in Nicosia, Cyprus.

On November 7, 2016, the board of directors and the majority stockholder of the then outstanding shares of registrant’s common stock executed a written consent to change registrant’s name from Makkanotti Group Corp. to CURE Pharmaceutical Holding Corp. The Certificate of Amendment to Articles of Incorporation was filed with the State of Nevada on November 30, 2016.

Further, on November 7, 2016, the registrant, in a reverse take-over transaction, acquired a specialty pharmaceutical and bioscience company based in California that specializes in drug delivery technologies, by executing a Share Exchange Agreement and Conversion Agreement (“Exchange Agreement”) by and among the registrant and a holder of a majority of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the registrant prior to the closing (the “Majority Stockholder”), on the one hand, and CURE Pharmaceutical Corporation, a California corporation (“CURE Pharmaceutical”), all of the shareholders of CURE Pharmaceutical’s issued and outstanding share capital (the “CURE Pharm Shareholders”) and the holders of certain convertible promissory notes of CURE Pharmaceutical (“CURE Pharm Noteholders”), on the other hand. Hereinafter, this share exchange transaction is described as the “Share Exchange.”

The following is a brief description of the terms and conditions of the Exchange Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder that are material to the registrant:

· Share Exchange and Share Cancellations. The registrant shall issue 9,010,000 restricted shares of its common stock, $0.001 par value per share (“Common Stock”), to the CURE Pharm Shareholders in the aggregate, in exchange for 2,718,253 shares of CURE Pharmaceutical’s common stock held by them, representing 100% of the then issued and outstanding common stock of CURE Pharmaceutical (the “Share Exchange”). In connection with the Share Exchange, the Majority Stockholder agreed to cancel 16,181,400 shares of Common Stock of the registrant in exchange for a warrant (the “Majority Stockholder Warrant”) to purchase up to 1,640,305 shares of Common Stock of the registrant at an exercise price of $2.00 per share and with an exercise period of four years commencing on the date of issuance of the warrant. In addition, one other shareholder of the registrant entered into a share cancellation agreement with the registrant whereby such shareholder agreed to cancel 652,390 shares of the registrant’s common stock at the closing of the Share Exchange in order to induce CURE Pharmaceutical to enter into the Exchange Agreement.

· Conversion. The registrant issued 6,106,463 restricted shares of Common Stock to the CURE Pharm Noteholders in the aggregate, by converting the convertible promissory notes of CURE Pharmaceutical held by the CURE Pharm Noteholders in the aggregate principal amount of $6,106,463, at a conversion price of $1.00 per share.

· Change in Management. Michael Hlavsa, the registrant’s sole director and executive officer immediately prior to the closing of the Exchange Agreement, resigned, and Robert Davidson, William Yuan and Charles Berman were appointed to the registrant’s board of directors (the “Board”). Robert Davidson, Edward Maliski, Wayne Nasby and Mark Udell were appointed as the new chief executive officer, president and chief scientific officer, chief operating officer, and chief financial officer and secretary, respectively, effective at the closing of the Exchange Agreement. Additional information regarding the above-mentioned directors and executive officers is set forth below in Item 2.01 and Item 5.02.

20

As a result of the Share Exchange, CURE Pharmaceutical became a wholly owned subsidiary of the registrant, and the CURE Pharm Shareholders and CURE Pharm Noteholders became the controlling shareholders of the registrant.

The closing of the transactions contemplated under the Exchange Agreement (the “Closing”) took place on November 7, 2016 (the “Closing Date”). As a result, the registrant had a total of 23,266,733 shares of common stock issued and outstanding at the Closing Date, with the CURE Pharm Shareholders and Noteholders collectively owning approximately 64.97% of the registrant’s issued and outstanding Common Stock.

CURE Pharmaceutical Corporation

Our wholly owned subsidiary and operating business, CURE Pharmaceutical, located in Oxnard, California was originally incorporated in July 2011 to develop novel drug formulation and delivery technologies.

The pharmaceutical industry is facing ever-growing R&D expenditure and fewer new drug approvals as a result of increasing regulation, a failure to predict safety problems or a lack of efficacy early in a drug’s development, and high investment in new technologies to improve the speed and accuracy of drug development. In addition to these challenges to the industry’s operators, many leading drugs are coming off-patent, creating a need to fill revenue gaps. The pharmaceutical industry is also challenged by the many patients who do not adhere to a regime of prescription drugs because of side effects, difficulty in administration or the taste of a drug. According to HealthPrize and Capgemini, the loss of global revenues by drug makers due to non-adherence to medicines is $630 billion every year.

Improved formulations can address these many challenges by cutting down development costs, reducing the time to market, extending product patent protection, improving patient compliance and increasing drug efficacy. For example, reformulation can enable drug repositioning, the process of finding new uses for failed drugs, such as those abandoned for lack of efficacy after Phase II trials, or marketed drugs for which new uses will extend patent life and, therefore, profitability.

The FDA approves more reformulations than new chemical entities (NCEs) each year under Section (505)(b)(2) of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, (“505(b)(2)”) the FDA. The number of 2017 NDA approvals that used the 505(b)(2) regulatory pathway rose dramatically from 45 approvals in each of the last two years to an all-time high of 63 in 2017. Under Section (505)(b)(2), the FDA may grant market exclusivity for a term of up to three years of exclusivity following approval of a listed drug that contains previously approved active ingredients but is approved in a new dosage, dosage form, route of administration or indication for use. Taken together, the exclusivity period of a drug and the lower R&D cost for reformulating a drug, have led to pharmaceutical companies taking a keen interest in reformulating their drugs as part of their lifecycle management protocols.

The veterinary industry, which is under pressure to acquire new products and revenue streams, will benefit from similar formulation-focused commercial strategies, addressing a significant need for improved ease of administration by animal caregivers and handlers.

Our Product

CureFilm™ Technology and Value Proposition

Typical forms of drug delivery that consumers have been familiar with over the years, include tablets, capsules, chewables, gummies, and more recent developments, such as melts and sublingual drops and sprays. We believe that we are one of the companies at the forefront of OTF drug delivery technology. Our OTF product is about the size of a postage stamp using a matrix that maximizes the amount of “active” drug that can be delivered via OTF.

Our CureFilm™ Technology consists of patented, patent pending and trade secrets in two areas: OTF – Core Technology, Sublingual Technology and Transdermal (skin) Technology.

Our proprietary multi-layer CureFilm™ allows dosages of many pharmaceutical, OTC and nutraceutical products to be put onto a small strip applied to the cheek (buccal), or under the tongue (sublingual). We believe that what sets us apart from the competition is our proprietary patented CureFilm™ Technology, multi-layer systems and formulation technologies that:

· Consists of two components - a liquid-based film layer that contains and stabilizes the active ingredients, and a powder matrix layer.

· Provides improved stability as well as delivery of active ingredients.

· Contains functional qualities to include extra flavoring ingredients, pliability enhancers, and mucosal permeation enhancers.

In a two-layer strip, the layers are designed to work together, in combination with the powder composition. The powder composition can be varied, as can the muco-adhesion properties of the strips, to alter the dissolution and absorption rates of the medicament. A complete multilayer system allows for increased stability, higher loading of active ingredients, and increased taste and palatability.

Another recent advancement in our CureFilm™ Technology utilizes micro-encapsulation of selected active ingredients. In the micro-encapsulation process, microscopic particles or droplets envelop the active ingredients to protect and shield them. The technique used in the micro-encapsulation process depends on various factors including the physical and chemical properties of the active ingredients. This micro-encapsulation technology has allowed the delivery of higher dosing with better flavor masking.

We have various types of CureFilm™ dietary supplement products that are being commercialized and developed. These include:

Commercialized:

· MacuStrip Vitamin complex (eye health product)

· ID Life Sleep melatonin

· Electrolyte (Adult and Pediatric)

· E6 Berry Caffeine

· Hang-Over Relief

In Development:

· Aspirin

· Loratadine

· Tadalifil

· Sildenafil

· Loperamide

· Vitamin B12

· Vitamin D3

· Folic Acid

Clinical Development

We partner with pharmaceutical companies looking for new methods to deliver drug actives. Under Section (505)(b)(2) of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, (“(505)(b)(2)”) the FDA may grant market exclusivity for a term of up to three years of exclusivity following approval of a listed drug that contains previously approved active ingredients but is approved in a new dosage, dosage form, route of administration or combination. The 505(b)(2) pathway is also the regulatory approach to be followed if an applicant intends to file an application for a product containing a drug that is already approved by the FDA for a certain indication and for which the applicant is seeking approval for a new indication or for a new use, the approval of which is required to be supported by new clinical trials, other than bioavailability studies. We have implemented a strategy under which we actively look for such so-called “repurposing opportunities” and determine whether our proprietary CureFilm™ Technology adds value to the product.

We currently have five such drug repurposing projects in our development pipeline, although there can be no assurance that such projects will be fully developed. The companies we partner with are typically responsible for managing the regulatory approval process of the product with the FDA and/or other regulatory bodies, as well as for the marketing and distribution of the products. On a case-by-case basis, we may be responsible for providing all or part of the documentation required for the regulatory submission.

In addition to pursuing partnering arrangements that provide for the full funding of a drug development project, we may undertake development of selected product opportunities until the marketing and distribution stage. We would first assess the potential and associated costs for successful development of a product, and then determine at which stage it would be most prudent to seek a partner, balancing costs against the potential for higher returns later in the development process. We currently have five of such potential drug candidates in our product pipeline, all of which are in the formulation development and pre-clinical phase of development. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to fully develop, market and distribute OTF products for these drug candidates.

Business Strategy

Our commercial strategy is designed to mitigate risk by pursuing a diversified model.

1.	Nutraceuticals. We manufacture select nutraceuticals that complement our portfolio and align with our mission, in partnership with distributors. This approach provides us with short term revenue opportunities.
2.	Pharmaceuticals. We partner with companies that are responsible for clinical development and regulatory approval with the FDA and/or other regulatory bodies, as well as for the marketing and distribution of the products. On a case-by-case basis, we may be responsible for providing all or part of the documentation required for regulatory submissions and for conducting the preclinical testing of our products. Deal terms may include upfront licensing fees, development costs, milestone payments and exclusive manufacturing rights. Within this category, we are further diversifying risk and return by pursuing product life cycle opportunities (e.g. Sildenafil CUREfilm) as well as investigational drugs (e.g. PEA & Dronabinol combination CUREfilm). While we currently manufacture nutraceutical products in our state-of-the-art cGMP oral film manufacturing facility, we are undertaking steps to manufacture pharmaceutical products for commercial use.
3.	Cannabinoids. We are specifically investing in pharmaceutical-grade cannabinoid products, such as tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). The oral bioavailability of cannabinoids is very low due to extensive “first-pass” metabolism. Consequently, potency and release times are unpredictable and inconsistent. Moreover, cannabinoids don’t readily dissolve in water which adds to dosing difficulties and discrepancies. In addition to improving bioavailability, CUREfilm enables the loading of combinations of cannabinoids and other plant extracts that, together, provide maximum therapeutic benefit. We are investing in preclinical cannabinoid research at the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology, where the laboratory of Dr. Dedi Meiri is identifying specific combinations of cannabinoids with anti-tumor effects. We are undertaking steps to research scheduled drugs at our Oxnard facility.
4.	Underserved patient populations. Consistent with our mission of improving the lives of all people in need, regardless of geography or economic status, we have made our technology available to a private company, Oak Therapeutics (“Oak”), that is developing novel drug formulations for patients in developing nations (“Territory”). On November 10, 2017, we received 269,000 shares of Oak as consideration for an exclusive license to our patents rights in the Territory, along with a royalty-free non-exclusive license to any improvements made by Oak. As a result of this transaction, we own approximately 63% of Oak’s outstanding shares and have consolidated Oak’s financial statements as of the fourth quarter 2017. Oak has completed a Phase I Small Business Innovative Research Contract (“SBIR”) from the National Institutes of Health to develop a formulation for 300mg of Isoniazid in a rapidly dissolving film as an anti-tuberculosis treatment option. Oak is currently in the application process for Phase II of the SBIR program to continue its research and development and focus on manufacturing scale up, clinical trials and commercialization.

Competition

We face competition from other companies, universities, governmental agencies and other public and private research organizations for collaborative arrangements with pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, in recruiting and retaining highly qualified scientific and management personnel and for licenses to additional technologies. Many of our competitors, including Monosol, BioDelivery Sciences International, IntelGenx and LTS Lohmann, have substantially greater financial, technical and human resources than we have. Our success will be based in part on our ability to develop and manufacture products that address unmet medical needs and create value to patients at competitive price points. In addition, continuing to build our intellectual property portfolio and designing innovative approaches that surpass our competitors’ patents will be critical to success.

Significant Employees

We currently have no significant employees.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenues for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were $105,014 as compared to $31,945 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase was principally due to the Company increased orders from ID Life, LLC for Sleep Strips. Revenues earned from ID Life have increased by 152% for the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the same period in 2017. In addition, the Company completed phases I and II of our research and development agreement with Aveneon Technology Ltd. for the development of a Sildenafil OTF during the three months ended March 31, 2018. The Company did not generate this type of revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold was $59,086 in the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to $35,550 in the three months ended March 31, 2017. Cost of goods sold increased by $23,536 in the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2017, which was primarily due to the increased sales to ID Life for Sleep Strips. In addition, the Company generated revenue from ID Life on higher margin products in the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the same period in 2017.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 amounted to $1,018,510, and for the three months ended March 31, 2017 amounted to $2,402,547. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, selling, general and administrative expenses were mainly comprised of amortization, commission, insurance, payroll, consulting, investor relation services, PR services and rent expenses. The decrease in the three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2017 was mainly due to the decrease in noncash transactions of $1.6 million relating to common stock issued for consulting services and recording the fair value of warrants issued for services recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to the same period in 2018. However, the decrease was offset by the increases in payroll, legal, accounting, investor relations, and PR services.

Research and Development Expenses

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, research and development expenses increased to $426,529 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2017 of $219,620. As the Company was able to raise funds during 2017 and the first quarter of 2018 by issuing convertible promissory notes, we were able to continue to focus on spending to improve our intellectual property. At the same time the Company focused on developing potential partnerships with pharmaceutical and bioscience companies and new OTC and prescription products. This is evident by our research and development deals for the development of a Sildenafil CUREfilm and a PEA and Dronabinol combination CUREfilm as well as our investment in preclinical cannabinoid research at the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology, where the laboratory of Dr. Dedi Meiri is identifying specific combinations of cannabinoids with anti-tumor effects. In addition, our subsidiary Oak Therapeutics, Inc. has completed a Phase I Small Business Innovative Research Contract (“SBIR”) from the National Institutes of Health to develop a formulation for 300mg of Isoniazid in a rapidly dissolving film as an anti-tuberculosis treatment option. Oak is currently in the application process for Phase II of the SBIR program to continue its research and development and focus on manufacturing scale up, clinical trials and commercialization.

Cash flows used in operating activities

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, operating activities consumed $1,153,586 of cash. This was primarily the result of a net loss of $1,908,512, offset by depreciation and amortization of $34,954, amortization of stock based compensation – prepaid expenses of $237,689, amortization of loan discounts of $360,089 as well as the changes in accounts receivable of $35,543, inventory of $24,991, prepaid expenses of $58,813, accounts payable of $14,225, accrued expenses of $53,621 and deferred revenue of $35,022.

Cash flows used in investing activities

Investment activities used an additional $22,187 of cash during the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily as a result of payments for patents and costs associated in the development and improvement of our intellectual property of $6,638 and acquisition of property and equipment of $15,549.

Cash flows provided by financing activities

Financing activities used $1,908,101 of cash for the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily as the result of proceeds from the issuance of convertible promissory notes of $2,025,000 and repayments of convertible promissory note and loan payables of $116,899.

CRITICAL ACCOUTNING POLICIES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The SEC has defined a company’s critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of the company’s financial condition and results of operations, and which require the company to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. Based on this definition, we have identified the critical accounting policies and judgments addressed below. We also have other key accounting policies, which involve the use of estimates, judgments, and assumptions that are significant to understanding our results. For additional information, see Note 2 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies”. Although we believe that our estimates, assumptions, and judgments are reasonable, they are based upon information presently available. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates under different assumptions, judgments, or condition

26

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets include equipment and intangible assets other than those with indefinite lives. We assess the carrying value of our long-lived asset groups when indicators of impairment exist and recognize an impairment loss when the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable when compared to undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset.

Indicators of impairment include significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in our use of the assets or in our business strategy, loss of or changes in customer relationships and significant negative industry or economic trends. When indications of impairment arise for a particular asset or group of assets, we assess the future recoverability of the carrying value of the asset (or asset group) based on an undiscounted cash flow analysis. If carrying value exceeds projected, net, undiscounted cash flows, an additional analysis is performed to determine the fair value of the asset (or asset group), typically a discounted cash flow analysis, and an impairment charge is recorded for the excess of carrying value over fair value. There was no impairment on our long-lived assets during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Going Concern

For the year ended December 31, 2017, the auditors opinion contained a going concern paragraph, which stated that the Company had an accumulated deficit, working deficit and net loss, these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of the financial statements.

The Company has an accumulated deficit balance as of March 31, 2018. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it establishes a revenue stream and becomes profitable. The Company is continually analyzing its current costs and is attempting to make additional cost reductions where possible. We expect that we will continue to generate losses from operations throughout the remainder of 2018.

Historically, the Company has had operating losses and negative cash flows from operations which cast significant doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company will need to raise capital in order to fund its operations. This need may be adversely impacted by uncertain market conditions and changes in the regulatory environment. To address its financing requirements, the Company intends to seek financing through debt and equity issuances to existing stockholders.

Specifically, management has identified that a minimum of $4,000,000 of capital is needed over the next 12 months in order sustain operations. These capital needs take into account, among other things, management’s plans to advance intellectual property, maintenance of patents, upgrades for manufacturing and to hire personnel for business development. Management has outlined a plan to raise $6,000,000 to $8,000,000 in capital over the next 12 months through the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock to accredited investors. Management believes that the capital raised through these methods will be sufficient to sustain operations for the next 12 months. If we cannot raise additional funds when we need or want them, our operations and prospects could be negatively affected.  However, the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty at this time.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

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

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(t) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our 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 U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our 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.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2018. Based on this assessment, management concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting as a result of the identified material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting described below. In making this assessment, management used the framework set forth in the report entitled Internal Control--Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or COSO. The COSO framework summarizes each of the components of a company’s internal control system, including (i) the control environment, (ii) risk assessment, (iii) control activities, (iv) information and communication and (v) monitoring.

Identified Material Weakness

A material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement or the financial statements will not be prevented or detected. Management identified the segregation of duties as a material weakness during its assessment of internal controls over financial reporting as of March 31, 2018. As of March 31, 2018, we had one full-time employee with the requisite expertise in the key functional areas of finance and accounting. As a result, there is a lack of proper segregation of duties necessary to ensure that all transactions are accounted for accurately and in a timely manner. As our resources allow, we will add financial personnel to our management team.

Management, with the participation of the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a15(e) and 15d15(e)) as of March 31, 2018, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Evaluation Date”). Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that as of the Evaluation Date, the Company’s disclosure controls are not effective as a result of the identified material weakness described herein.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2018 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to have a material effect, on our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

On January 24, 2018, the Company issued 50,000 common stock shares at $1.48 per share for consulting services to be performed over a one year period.

The shares of common stock described above were issued without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) in reliance on the exemptions provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act promulgated thereunder and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws.

On January 24, 2018, the Company issued an additional 55,000 warrants in connection with the issuance of $1,100,000 convertible promissory notes issued in 2017. The warrants have an exercise price of $1.00 per share and a term of 3 years.

From January 30, 2018 to March 28, 2018, the Company issued up to $2,025,000 convertible promissory notes with investors (“Investors”) due November 30, 2018. The notes bear interest at 9% per year and are convertible into common stock at either a price per share equal to the average closing price of the Company’s Common Stock on the OTC Markets for the five consecutive trading days prior to the delivery of a Notice of Conversion (“Optional Conversion”) or price per share equal to 75% of the price of the Company’s next bona fide sale of its preferred stock or Common Stock in excess of $4,000,000 in gross proceeds, in one transaction or a series of related transactions, which offering definitively sets a price per share of the Company’s Common Stock or preferred stock and enables the Company to list its common stock on a national securities exchange. The Investors in this offering also received warrants (the “Warrants”) for the option to purchase equal to 50% of the shares of Common Stock that the Investor is entitled to receive in connection with the conversion of the Investor’s Note. The Warrants’ price per share shall equal the lower of (a) $2.00 or (b) 125% of the price per share of the Qualified Offering. The Warrants will have a three year term and shall be exercisable in cash.

The warrants and notes described above were issued and sold without registration under the Securities Act in reliance on the exemptions provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITES

As of March 31, 2018, there were eight convertible promissory notes (“Notes”) totaling $1,700,000 that were in default. On April 15, 2018, the Company amended six of Notes to extend the maturity date to May 31, 2018. Of these six Notes, two Notes totaling $250,000 were repaid on April 23, 2018. In addition, two Notes totaling $500,000 are currently being negotiated to either extend the maturity date, be repaid or be converted into common stock of Company. As of the filing of our Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2018, the two Notes totaling $500,000 are still in default, however, the Company has not received any notice of default from the note holders of these two Notes.

ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Notes to Financial Statements

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Cure Pharmaceutical Holding Corp (the “Company”), formerly known as Makkanotti Group Corp, was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 15, 2014. The Company was formed to engage in the business of manufacturing food paper bags in Nicosia, Cyprus. On November 7, 2016, the Company changed its name to Cure Pharmaceutical Holding Corp.

On November 7, 2016, the Company, in a reverse take-over transaction, acquired Cure Pharmaceutical Corporation (“Cure Pharmaceutical”), a specialty pharmaceutical and bioscience company based in California that specializes in drug delivery technologies, by executing a Share Exchange Agreement and Conversion Agreement (“Exchange Agreement”) by and among the Company and a holder of a majority of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the registrant prior to the closing (the “Majority Stockholder”), on the one hand, and Cure Pharmaceutical, a California corporation, all of the shareholders of Cure Pharmaceutical’s issued and outstanding share capital (the “Cure Pharm Shareholders”) and the holders of certain convertible promissory notes of Cure Pharmaceutical (“Cure Pharm Noteholders”), on the other hand. Hereinafter, this share exchange transaction is described as the “Share Exchange.” As a result of the Share Exchange, Cure Pharmaceutical became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Cure Pharm Shareholders and Cure Pharm Noteholders became the controlling shareholders of the Company.

For accounting purposes, Cure Pharmaceutical shall be the surviving entity. The transaction is accounted for using the reverse acquisition method of accounting. As a result of the recapitalization and change in control, Cure Pharmaceutical is the acquiring entity in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations.

Cure Pharmaceutical Corporation is a specialty pharmaceutical and bioscience company with a focus in drug delivery technologies. Cure leverages novel drug delivery technologies to develop and commercialize new applications of proven therapeutics through Oral Thin Film (“OTF”) via our proprietary patented CureFilm™ Technology as well as through transdermal applications. Our micro encapsulation of drug actives in our CureFilm™ Technology allows for a higher volume of an active and if required, multiple actives to be produced on a single oral thin film strip.

The Company is focused on partnering with pharmaceutical and biotech companies seeking to deliver drug actives utilizing and benefitting from our proprietary OTF and transdermal applications and when preferable to take our own products from clinical process to commercialization. We are focused on both the human and veterinary prescription, OTC and nutraceutical markets. Cure represents the complete solution for OTF drug delivery therapeutics from inception to finished product utilizing our CGMP/FDA registered manufacturing facility and processes.

In July 2017, the Company, Therapix Biosciences Ltd. (“Therapix”), a specialty clinical-stage pharmaceutical company dedicated to the development of cannabinoid-based drugs headquartered in Israel, and Assuta Medical Centers, Ltd., a medical services center located in Israel, entered into a nonbinding memorandum of understanding to collaborate to advance, research, develop and commercialize potential therapeutic products in the fields of personalized medicine and cannabinoids. On October 27, 2017, the Company entered into a development agreement with Therapix where the Company will formulate and develop pharmaceutical products using Therapix’s proprietary compounds while utilizing the Company’s proprietary OTF technology.

Consistent with our mission of improving the lives of all people in need, regardless of geography or economic status, we have made our technology available to a private company, Oak Therapeutics (“Oak”), that is developing novel drug formulations for patients in developing nations (“Territory”). On November 10, 2017, we received 269,000 shares of Oak as consideration for an exclusive license to our patents rights in the Territory, along with a royalty-free non-exclusive license to any improvements made by Oak. As a result of this transaction, we own approximately 63% of Oak’s outstanding shares and have consolidated Oak’s financial statements as of the fourth quarter 2017. Oak has completed a Phase I Small Business Innovative Research Contract (“SBIR”) from the National Institutes of Health to develop a formulation for 300mg of Isoniazid in a rapidly dissolving film as an anti-tuberculosis treatment option. Oak is currently in the application process for Phase II of the SBIR program to continue its research and development and focus on manufacturing scale up, clinical trials and commercialization.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2018

Notes to Financial Statements

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principal of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CURE Pharmaceutical Holding Corp (“CPHC”), its wholly-owned subsidiary, CURE Pharmaceutical Corporation (“CURE”) and its majority owned subsidiary Oak Therapeutics, Inc. (“OAK”), collectively referred to as (“CURE”, “we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company” All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s film strip product represents the principal operations of the Company.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not contain all information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all the adjustments necessary (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) to present the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2018, and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included in Form 10-K for the fiscal period ended December 31, 2017 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 26, 2018.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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. These estimates and assumptions also affect the reported amounts of revenues, costs and expenses during the reporting period. Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all cash on hand and in banks, including accounts in book overdraft positions, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had no cash equivalents. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in banks insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) in accounts that at times may be in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000 per bank. The Company minimizes this risk by placing its cash deposits with major financial institutions.

Investment in Associates

An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence through a joint venture. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but not control or joint control over those policies.

The results of assets and liabilities of associates are incorporated in the condensed consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, investments in associates are carried in the consolidated balance sheet at cost as adjusted for post-acquisition changes in the Company’s share of the net assets of the associate, less any impairment in the value of the investment. Losses of an associate in excess of the Company’s interest in that associate are not recognized. Additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized, only to the extent that the Company has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Company’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the associate recognized at the date of acquisition is recognized as goodwill. The goodwill is included within the carrying amount of the investment.

On January 8, 2016, the Company received 50% ownership in Cure Innovations, Inc (“CI”). CI was created in 2015 by IncuBrands Studio, Inc (“IncuBrands”). The Company and IncuBrands each own 50% of the common stock of CI. The Company and IncuBrands entered into a Joint Venture agreement in 2013 to distribute several OTF products utilizing IncuBrands marketing and contacts in various industries as well as utilize the Company’s technology and capabilities of manufacturing OTF’s.

On December 6, 2016, the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (“Joint Venture”) with Pace Wellness, Inc. (“Pace”) to jointly develop three Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (“API”) within the nonprescription and/or Over-the-Counter (OTC) medicines specifically utilizing the Company’s patented and proprietary CUREFilm™ Technology. The three API’s to be jointly developed are Diphenhydramine HCL, Omeprazole and a third API to be determined at a later date (“Products”). Pace shall be the exclusive global distributor of the Products under the Solves Strips® branding or other private or branded labels. All benefits, advantages, and liabilities derived from, or incurred in respect of the Joint Venture shall be borne by the parties in proportion of their respective participating interests of 50/50 equal interest. As of March 31, 2018, the Company has only contributed $5,000 to the Joint Venture.

Property and Equipment

The Company capitalizes expenditures related to property and equipment, subject to a minimum rule, that have a useful life greater than one year for: (1) assets purchased; (2) existing assets that are replaced, improved or the useful lives have been extended; or (3) all land, regardless of cost. Acquisitions of new assets, additions, replacements and improvements (other than land) costing less than the minimum rule in addition to maintenance and repair costs, including any planned major maintenance activities, are expensed as incurred. Depreciation has been provided using the straight-line method on the following estimated useful lives:

Manufacturing equipment	5-7 Years
Computer and other equipment	3-7 Years
Leasehold Improvements	Lesser of useful life or the term of the lease

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are generally unsecured. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based on the age of outstanding invoices and management’s evaluation of collectability. Accounts are written off after all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted and management concludes that likelihood of collection is remote. Any future recoveries are applied against the allowance for doubtful accounts.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets include equipment and intangible assets other than those with indefinite lives. We assess the carrying value of our long-lived asset groups when indicators of impairment exist and recognize an impairment loss when the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable when compared to undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset.

Indicators of impairment include significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in our use of the assets or in our business strategy, loss of or changes in customer relationships and significant negative industry or economic trends. When indications of impairment arise for a particular asset or group of assets, we assess the future recoverability of the carrying value of the asset (or asset group) based on an undiscounted cash flow analysis. If carrying value exceeds projected, net, undiscounted cash flows, an additional analysis is performed to determine the fair value of the asset (or asset group), typically a discounted cash flow analysis, and an impairment charge is recorded for the excess of carrying value over fair value. There was no impairment on our long-lived assets during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, “Revenue Recognition,” when there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, title and risk of loss have passed, delivery has occurred, or the services have been rendered, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured. Title and risk of loss generally pass to our customers upon shipment. In limited circumstances where either title or risk of loss pass upon destination or acceptance or when collection is not reasonably assured, we defer revenue recognition until such events occur. We derive revenues from two primary sources: products and services. Product revenue includes the shipment of product according to the agreement with our customers. Services include research and development contracts for the development of OTF products utilizing our CureFilm™ Technology or our other proprietary technologies. Rarely, contracts with customers contain multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, the Company accounts for individual performance obligations separately if they are distinct. The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis. Standalone selling prices are typically estimated based on observable transactions when these services are sold on a standalone basis.

The Company’s consulting research and development income include services for the development of OTF products utilizing our CureFilm™ Technology. Most of our development contracts have four phases. Revenue is recognized based on progress toward completion of the performance obligation in each phase. The method to measure progress toward completion requires judgment and is based on the nature of the products or services to be provided. The Company generally uses the input method to measure progress for its contracts because it best depicts the transfer of assets to the customer, which occurs as the Company incurs costs for the contracts. Under the cost-to-cost measure of progress, the progress toward completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation. Revenue is recorded proportionally as costs are incurred. Costs to fulfill these obligations mainly include materials, labor, supplies and consultants.

Deferred revenue is shown separately in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. At March 31, 2018 we had deferred revenue of $396,484. At December 31, 2017, we had deferred revenue of $361,462.

Advertising Expense

The Company expenses marketing, promotions and advertising costs as incurred. Such costs are included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying statements of operations. The Company did not incur advertising costs for the three months period ended March 31, 2018. The Company recorded advertising costs of $1,876 for the three month period ended March 31, 2017.

Research and Development

Costs incurred in connection with the development of new products and processes are charged to research and development expenses as incurred. The Company recorded research and development expenses of $426,529 and $219,620 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is “more likely-than-not” that a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

The Company generated a deferred tax asset through net operating loss carry-forward. However, a valuation allowance of 100% has been established due to the uncertainty of the Company’s realization of the net operating loss carry forward prior to its expiration.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.

Pursuant to ASC Topic 505-50, for share-based payments to consultants and other third-parties, compensation expense is determined at the “measurement date.” The expense is recognized over the vesting period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company initially records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date.

Convertible Debentures

Beneficial Conversion Feature

If the conversion features of conventional convertible debt provides for a rate of conversion that is below market value, this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). A BCF is recorded by the Company as a debt discount pursuant to ASC Topic 470-20 ““Debt with Conversion and Other Options.” In those circumstances, the convertible debt is recorded net of the discount related to the BCF and the Company amortizes the discount to interest expense over the life of the debt using the effective interest method.

Derivative Liabilities

ASC 815-40 (formerly SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities”), requires that embedded derivative instruments be bifurcated and assessed, along with free-standing derivative instruments such as warrants, on their issuance date and in accordance with ASC 815-40-15 (formerly EITF 00-19 “Accounting for derivative financial instruments indexed to, and potentially settled in, a company’s own stock”) to determine whether they should be considered a derivative liability and measured at their fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing formula and present value pricing. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company adjusted its derivative liability to its fair value, and reflected the change in fair value, in its consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, which defines fair value as used in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements.

The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable

Level 3 — inputs that are unobservable (for example cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)

The Company has no assets or liabilities valued at fair value on a recurring basis.

Basic and diluted loss per share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares, which consist of stock options and warrants, have been excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation because their effect is anti-dilutive.

	March 31, 2018
Number of common stock shares issued and outstanding		23,951,252
Number of common stock shares from conversion of convertible notes		307,904
Number of common stock shares from exercise of warrants		1,695,000
Total fully-diluted common stock shares		25,954,156

Going Concern

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated deficit at March 31, 2018 of $20,770,435. The Company had a working deficit of $3,292,165 as of March 31, 2018. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of the financial statements. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it establishes a revenue stream and becomes profitable. The Company is continually analyzing its current costs and is attempting to make additional cost reductions where possible. We expect that we will continue to generate losses from operations throughout 2018.

Historically, the Company has had operating losses and negative cash flows from operations which cast significant doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company will need to raise capital in order to fund its operations. This need may be adversely impacted by uncertain market conditions and changes in the regulatory environment. To address its financing requirements, the Company intends to seek financing through debt and equity issuances to existing stockholders.

Specifically, management has identified that a minimum of $4,000,000 of capital is needed over the next 12 months in order sustain operations. These capital needs take into account, among other things, management’s plans to advance intellectual property, maintenance of patents, upgrades for manufacturing and to hire personnel for business development. Management has outlined a plan to raise between $6,000,000 to $8,000,000 in capital over the next 12 months through the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock to accredited investors. Management believes that the capital raised through these methods will be sufficient to sustain operations for the next 12 months. However, the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty at this time.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of the financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Recently Issued Standards

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The purpose is to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information. This ASU is effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018. Early adoption is not permitted except for limited provisions. The Company does not expect the adoption of this amendment to have a material effect on its financial condition and results of operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02—Leases (Topic 842), requiring lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with the exception of short-term leases. For lessees, leases will continue to be classified as either operating or finance leases in the income statement. The effective date of the new standard for public companies is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition and requires application of the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The Company is evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The new standard requires recognition of the income tax effects of vested or settled awards in the income statement and involves several other 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. This new standard became effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or statements of cash flows upon adoption.

In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients”, to clarify certain core recognition principles including collectability, sales tax presentation, noncash consideration, contract modifications and completed contracts at transition and disclosures no longer required if the full retrospective transition method is adopted. The effective date and transition requirements for these amendments are annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods therein, and that would also permit public entities to elect to adopt the amendments as of the original effective date as applicable to reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The new guidance allows for the amendment to be applied either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The adoption of ASU 2016-12 did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August, 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force) (“ASU 2016-15”). The amendments in ASU 2016-15 address eight specific cash flow issues and apply to all entities that are required to present a statement of cash flows under ASC Topic 230, Statement of Cash Flows. The amendments in ASU 2016-15 are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption during an interim period. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. This new standard clarifies the definition of a business and provides a screen to determine when an integrated set of assets and activities is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. This new standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2018; however, early adoption is permitted with prospective application to any business development transaction. There are various other updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation: Scope of Modification Accounting, which provides clarification on when modification accounting should be used for changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. This ASU does not change the accounting for modifications but clarifies that modification accounting guidance should only be applied if there is a change to the value, vesting conditions or award classification and would not be required if the changes are considered non-substantive. The amendments of this ASU are effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2017-09 did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

There are various other updates recently issued, however, they are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Derivative liability	$	-	$	-	$	(90,738	)	$	(90,378	)

The Company has issued convertible promissory notes during 2017. The convertible notes require us to record the value of the conversion feature as a liability, at fair value, pursuant to ASC 815, including provisions in the notes that protect the holders from declines in the Company’s stock price, which is considered outside the control of the Company. The derivative liabilities are marked-to-market each reporting period and changes in fair value are recorded as a non-operating gain or loss in our statement of operations, until they are completely settled. The fair value of the conversion feature is determined each reporting period using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, and is affected by changes in inputs to that model including our stock price, expected stock price volatility, interest rates and expected term. The assumptions used in valuing the derivative liability during 2018 were as follows:

Significant assumptions (weighted-average):
Risk-free interest rate at grant date		2.56	%
Expected stock price volatility		126.00	%

NOTE 12 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation:

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. The only significant matter of which the Company is aware of is discussed below.

On May 22, 2017, Sandy Sierra Garate (“Applicant”), an employee of the Company, filed an application for benefits due to serious and willful misconduct of the employer pursuant to labor code section 4553 with the State of California Workers’ Compensation Appeals Board (WCAB Case No: ADJ 10686812) resulting in injury arising out of and in the course of the Applicant’s employment on August 5, 2016. The Applicant is requesting relief in this matter for a one half increase in all compensation recoverable in connection with the injury of August 5, 2016, for the allowance of costs and expenses in an amount to be determined and for such further relief as is deemed appropriate. The Company is currently unable to determine what additional expenses will be incurred in order to defend this matter. As such, the Company cannot determine whether there is a reasonable possibility that a loss will be incurred nor can it estimate the range of any such potential loss. Accordingly, the Company has not accrued an amount for any potential loss associated with this action.

Operating leases

The Company maintains its corporate offices and manufacturing facility at 1620 Beacon Place, Oxnard, CA 93033, which contains approximately 25,000 square feet. The Company is currently on a month-to-month lease.

The Company also leases additional office and warehouse space at 1612 Fiske Place, Oxnard, CA 93033, which contains approximately 2,227 square feet. The Company is currently on a month-to-month lease.

Total rent expense for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 was $74,178 and $72,400, respectively.

As consideration for the assignment of the Assigned Patents and other rights under the Agreement, the Company shall issue to Assignor shares of its Common Stock (“Shares”) as follows, provided, that the maximum number of Shares issuable hereunder shall not exceed Two Hundred Thousand (200,000): (a) 50,000 Shares will be issued on the Effective Date; (b) 10,000 Shares will be issued for each Abandoned Application the prosecution of which is revived by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”); and (c) 50,000 Shares will be issued upon issuance by the USPTO of each patent that includes at least one specific claim in a patent application that recites subject matter to be defined by Assignee in its sole discretion (“Target Claim”). As of the date of the Company’s filing of its Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2018, the Company has not yet issued these Shares.

The Company has previously adopted and maintains the CURE Pharmaceutical Holding Corp. 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), pursuant to which an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of the common stock of the Company remain available for grant as of March 31, 2018. The Board of Directors have determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to provide an additional incentive for certain employees, including executive officers, and non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company by granting to them awards with respect to the common stock of the Company pursuant to the Plan. On April 6, 2018, the Company awarded 500,000 Restricted Common Stock (“RCS”), 1,251,700 Nonstatutory Stock Options (“NSO”) and 804,000 Incentive Stock Options (“ISO”) to employees, including executive officers, non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company, members of the Advisory Board Committee and consultants at a $0.74 price per share. Vesting period for the awarded RCS, NSO and ISO’s range from immediate to quarterly over a 4 year period. For NSO’s and ISO awarded, the term to exercise their NSO or ISO is 10 years.

On April 15, 2018, the Company amended six convertible promissory notes totaling $1,100,000 to extend the maturity dates to May 31, 2018. For extending the maturity date, the Company granted an additional 275,000 warrants to purchase common stock of the Company at a strike price of $1.00 per share. In addition, the Company extended the term of the warrant agreements for one additional year for each of the convertible promissory notes. On April 23, 2018, the Company repaid two of these convertible promissory notes totaling $250,000.

On April 24, 2018, the Company received in total $500,000 (“Investment Amount”) by issuing a convertible promissory note (“Convertible Note”) to a Company, Therapix Biosciences Ltd., (“Investor”) that is due April 30, 2019 (“Maturity Date”). The Convertible Note shall accrue interest at 9% per annum and is unsecured. Unless earlier converted, at the election of the Investor, the entire then outstanding Investment Amount shall be converted into that number of shares of the most senior class of shares of the Company existing at the time of such conversion, at a price per share (the “Voluntary Conversion PPS”) equal to 75% of the average of the closing prices of the Company’s Common Stock on the OTC Market (or any other market on which the common stock of the Company is then listed for trading) over the thirty (30) consecutive trading days prior to the delivery of the notice of conversion by the Investor to the Company, or, if at the time of such conversion the shares of the Company’s Common Stock are not listed for trading, then the entire then outstanding Investment Amount shall be converted into that number of shares of the most senior class of shares of the Company existing at the time of such conversion, at a price per share equal to 75% of the fair market value of such Common Stock as shall be determined by the Board of Directors based on, among others, a valuation prepared by an independent third party and which shall have been submitted to the Company not more than 90 days prior to the date of such determination by the Board of Directors. In the event of the consummation by the Company, on or before the Maturity Date, of a transaction or series of related transactions in which the Company issues equity securities of the Company in consideration of at least US$4,000,000 (a “Financing”), the then outstanding Investment Amount not previously converted hereunder shall be automatically converted, immediately prior to (but conditioned upon) the consummation of such Financing, into such number of shares (or a sub-class thereof) issued by the Company in the Financing, equal to the outstanding Investment Amount divided by a price per share equal to 75% of the lowest price per share paid to the Company in the Financing. In the event the Financing is not consummated by the Maturity Date, then the outstanding Investment Amount as of the Maturity Date not previously converted hereunder shall be automatically converted, on the Maturity Date, into such number of shares (or a sub-class thereof) issued by the Company in the Financing, equal to the outstanding Investment Amount divided by the Voluntary Conversion PPS.

Payment to convertible note holders.

On April 30, 2018, the Company paid $10,000 for a Convertible Promissory Note (“Note”) from Oak Therapeutics, Inc. (“Oak”), a subsidiary of the Company, that is due April 30, 2019. The Note shall accrue interest at 9% per annum and is unsecured.

Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies Policies

Principles of consolidation and basis of presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CURE Pharmaceutical Holding Corp (“CPHC”), its wholly-owned subsidiary, CURE Pharmaceutical Corporation (“CURE”) and its majority owned subsidiary Oak Therapeutics, Inc. (“OAK”), collectively referred to as (“CURE”, “we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company” All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s film strip product represents the principal operations of the Company.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not contain all information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for annual financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all the adjustments necessary (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) to present the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2018, and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included in Form 10-K for the fiscal period ended December 31, 2017 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 26, 2018.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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. These estimates and assumptions also affect the reported amounts of revenues, costs and expenses during the reporting period. Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all cash on hand and in banks, including accounts in book overdraft positions, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had no cash equivalents. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in banks insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) in accounts that at times may be in excess of the federally insured limit of $250,000 per bank. The Company minimizes this risk by placing its cash deposits with major financial institutions.

Investment in Associates

An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence through a joint venture. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but not control or joint control over those policies.

The results of assets and liabilities of associates are incorporated in the condensed consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, investments in associates are carried in the consolidated balance sheet at cost as adjusted for post-acquisition changes in the Company’s share of the net assets of the associate, less any impairment in the value of the investment. Losses of an associate in excess of the Company’s interest in that associate are not recognized. Additional losses are provided for, and a liability is recognized, only to the extent that the Company has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Company’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the associate recognized at the date of acquisition is recognized as goodwill. The goodwill is included within the carrying amount of the investment.

On January 8, 2016, the Company received 50% ownership in Cure Innovations, Inc (“CI”). CI was created in 2015 by IncuBrands Studio, Inc (“IncuBrands”). The Company and IncuBrands each own 50% of the common stock of CI. The Company and IncuBrands entered into a Joint Venture agreement in 2013 to distribute several OTF products utilizing IncuBrands marketing and contacts in various industries as well as utilize the Company’s technology and capabilities of manufacturing OTF’s.

On December 6, 2016, the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement (“Joint Venture”) with Pace Wellness, Inc. (“Pace”) to jointly develop three Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (“API”) within the nonprescription and/or Over-the-Counter (OTC) medicines specifically utilizing the Company’s patented and proprietary CUREFilm™ Technology. The three API’s to be jointly developed are Diphenhydramine HCL, Omeprazole and a third API to be determined at a later date (“Products”). Pace shall be the exclusive global distributor of the Products under the Solves Strips® branding or other private or branded labels. All benefits, advantages, and liabilities derived from, or incurred in respect of the Joint Venture shall be borne by the parties in proportion of their respective participating interests of 50/50 equal interest. As of March 31, 2018, the Company has only contributed $5,000 to the Joint Venture.

Property and Equipment

The Company capitalizes expenditures related to property and equipment, subject to a minimum rule, that have a useful life greater than one year for: (1) assets purchased; (2) existing assets that are replaced, improved or the useful lives have been extended; or (3) all land, regardless of cost. Acquisitions of new assets, additions, replacements and improvements (other than land) costing less than the minimum rule in addition to maintenance and repair costs, including any planned major maintenance activities, are expensed as incurred. Depreciation has been provided using the straight-line method on the following estimated useful lives:

Manufacturing equipment	5-7 Years
Computer and other equipment	3-7 Years
Leasehold Improvements	Lesser of useful life or the term of the lease

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are generally unsecured. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable based on the age of outstanding invoices and management’s evaluation of collectability. Accounts are written off after all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted and management concludes that likelihood of collection is remote. Any future recoveries are applied against the allowance for doubtful accounts.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets include equipment and intangible assets other than those with indefinite lives. We assess the carrying value of our long-lived asset groups when indicators of impairment exist and recognize an impairment loss when the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable when compared to undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset.

Indicators of impairment include significant underperformance relative to historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in our use of the assets or in our business strategy, loss of or changes in customer relationships and significant negative industry or economic trends. When indications of impairment arise for a particular asset or group of assets, we assess the future recoverability of the carrying value of the asset (or asset group) based on an undiscounted cash flow analysis. If carrying value exceeds projected, net, undiscounted cash flows, an additional analysis is performed to determine the fair value of the asset (or asset group), typically a discounted cash flow analysis, and an impairment charge is recorded for the excess of carrying value over fair value. There was no impairment on our long-lived assets during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, “Revenue Recognition,” when there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, title and risk of loss have passed, delivery has occurred, or the services have been rendered, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured. Title and risk of loss generally pass to our customers upon shipment. In limited circumstances where either title or risk of loss pass upon destination or acceptance or when collection is not reasonably assured, we defer revenue recognition until such events occur. We derive revenues from two primary sources: products and services. Product revenue includes the shipment of product according to the agreement with our customers. Services include research and development contracts for the development of OTF products utilizing our CureFilm™ Technology or our other proprietary technologies. Rarely, contracts with customers contain multiple performance obligations. For these contracts, the Company accounts for individual performance obligations separately if they are distinct. The transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price basis. Standalone selling prices are typically estimated based on observable transactions when these services are sold on a standalone basis.

The Company’s consulting research and development income include services for the development of OTF products utilizing our CureFilm™ Technology. Most of our development contracts have four phases. Revenue is recognized based on progress toward completion of the performance obligation in each phase. The method to measure progress toward completion requires judgment and is based on the nature of the products or services to be provided. The Company generally uses the input method to measure progress for its contracts because it best depicts the transfer of assets to the customer, which occurs as the Company incurs costs for the contracts. Under the cost-to-cost measure of progress, the progress toward completion is measured based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation. Revenue is recorded proportionally as costs are incurred. Costs to fulfill these obligations mainly include materials, labor, supplies and consultants.

Deferred revenue is shown separately in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. At March 31, 2018 we had deferred revenue of $396,484. At December 31, 2017, we had deferred revenue of $361,462.

Advertising Expense

The Company expenses marketing, promotions and advertising costs as incurred. Such costs are included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying statements of operations. The Company did not incur advertising costs for the three months period ended March 31, 2018. The Company recorded advertising costs of $1,876 for the three month period ended March 31, 2017.

Research and Development

Costs incurred in connection with the development of new products and processes are charged to research and development expenses as incurred. The Company recorded research and development expenses of $426,529 and $219,620 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company utilizes FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is “more likely-than-not” that a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

The Company generated a deferred tax asset through net operating loss carry-forward. However, a valuation allowance of 100% has been established due to the uncertainty of the Company’s realization of the net operating loss carry forward prior to its expiration.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.

Pursuant to ASC Topic 505-50, for share-based payments to consultants and other third-parties, compensation expense is determined at the “measurement date.” The expense is recognized over the vesting period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company initially records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date.

Convertible Debentures

Beneficial Conversion Feature

If the conversion features of conventional convertible debt provides for a rate of conversion that is below market value, this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). A BCF is recorded by the Company as a debt discount pursuant to ASC Topic 470-20 ““Debt with Conversion and Other Options.” In those circumstances, the convertible debt is recorded net of the discount related to the BCF and the Company amortizes the discount to interest expense over the life of the debt using the effective interest method.

Derivative Liabilities

ASC 815-40 (formerly SFAS No. 133 “Accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities”), requires that embedded derivative instruments be bifurcated and assessed, along with free-standing derivative instruments such as warrants, on their issuance date and in accordance with ASC 815-40-15 (formerly EITF 00-19 “Accounting for derivative financial instruments indexed to, and potentially settled in, a company’s own stock”) to determine whether they should be considered a derivative liability and measured at their fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing formula and present value pricing. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company adjusted its derivative liability to its fair value, and reflected the change in fair value, in its consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, which defines fair value as used in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements.

The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

Level 2 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable

Level 3 — inputs that are unobservable (for example cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)

The Company has no assets or liabilities valued at fair value on a recurring basis.

Basic and diluted loss per share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares, which consist of stock options and warrants, have been excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation because their effect is anti-dilutive.

	March 31, 2018
Number of common stock shares issued and outstanding		23,951,252
Number of common stock shares from conversion of convertible notes		307,904
Number of common stock shares from exercise of warrants		1,695,000
Total fully-diluted common stock shares		25,954,156

Going Concern

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated deficit at March 31, 2018 of $20,770,435. The Company had a working deficit of $3,292,165 as of March 31, 2018. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of the financial statements. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it establishes a revenue stream and becomes profitable. The Company is continually analyzing its current costs and is attempting to make additional cost reductions where possible. We expect that we will continue to generate losses from operations throughout 2018.

Historically, the Company has had operating losses and negative cash flows from operations which cast significant doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company will need to raise capital in order to fund its operations. This need may be adversely impacted by uncertain market conditions and changes in the regulatory environment. To address its financing requirements, the Company intends to seek financing through debt and equity issuances to existing stockholders.

Specifically, management has identified that a minimum of $4,000,000 of capital is needed over the next 12 months in order sustain operations. These capital needs take into account, among other things, management’s plans to advance intellectual property, maintenance of patents, upgrades for manufacturing and to hire personnel for business development. Management has outlined a plan to raise between $6,000,000 to $8,000,000 in capital over the next 12 months through the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock to accredited investors. Management believes that the capital raised through these methods will be sufficient to sustain operations for the next 12 months. However, the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty at this time.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of the financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Recently Issued Standards

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The purpose is to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information. This ASU is effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018. Early adoption is not permitted except for limited provisions. The Company does not expect the adoption of this amendment to have a material effect on its financial condition and results of operations.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02—Leases (Topic 842), requiring lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with the exception of short-term leases. For lessees, leases will continue to be classified as either operating or finance leases in the income statement. The effective date of the new standard for public companies is for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition and requires application of the new guidance at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. The Company is evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on its financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. The new standard requires recognition of the income tax effects of vested or settled awards in the income statement and involves several other 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. This new standard became effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or statements of cash flows upon adoption.

In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients”, to clarify certain core recognition principles including collectability, sales tax presentation, noncash consideration, contract modifications and completed contracts at transition and disclosures no longer required if the full retrospective transition method is adopted. The effective date and transition requirements for these amendments are annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods therein, and that would also permit public entities to elect to adopt the amendments as of the original effective date as applicable to reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The new guidance allows for the amendment to be applied either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The adoption of ASU 2016-12 did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August, 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force) (“ASU 2016-15”). The amendments in ASU 2016-15 address eight specific cash flow issues and apply to all entities that are required to present a statement of cash flows under ASC Topic 230, Statement of Cash Flows. The amendments in ASU 2016-15 are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption during an interim period. The adoption of ASU 2016-15 did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. This new standard clarifies the definition of a business and provides a screen to determine when an integrated set of assets and activities is not a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. This new standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2018; however, early adoption is permitted with prospective application to any business development transaction. There are various other updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation: Scope of Modification Accounting, which provides clarification on when modification accounting should be used for changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. This ASU does not change the accounting for modifications but clarifies that modification accounting guidance should only be applied if there is a change to the value, vesting conditions or award classification and would not be required if the changes are considered non-substantive. The amendments of this ASU are effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2017-09 did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

There are various other updates recently issued, however, they are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
