Lightlake Therapeutics, Inc.
(Formerly Known As Madrona Ventures, Inc.)
(a Development Stage Enterprise)
Notes to Financial Statements
For the three and six months ended January 31, 2011 and July 31, 2010 

 
1. Organization, Description of Business, and Basis of Accounting

Business Organization
 
Lightlake Therapeutics, Inc., (formerly known as Madrona Ventures, Inc.) (the Company) was originally incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 21, 2005.  On September 16, 2009, the Company changed its’ name to Lightlake Therapeutics, Inc.  The Company’s fiscal year end is July 31. The company is currently in the development stage and to date its’ activities have been limited to capital formation. The Company is currently in the development stage and has limited assets and no revenue. In accordance with the FASB ASC 915, it is considered a Development Stage Company.

Accounting Basis

These financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting following generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America consistently applied.

Income Taxes

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

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

Dividends

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

Earnings (Loss) per Share

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

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

Notes to Financial Statements
For the three and six months ended January 31, 2011 and July 31, 2010

 
1. Organization, Description of Business, and Basis of Accounting (Cont.)

Earnings (Loss) per Share (Cont.)

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

Research and Development Costs

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

Stock-Based Compensation

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

Use of Estimates

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

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

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

4. Income Taxes (Cont.)
 
The Company has a net operating loss carryover of $3,335,860 as of January 31, 2011 which begins to expire in 2026. Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards for federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in future years.

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

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

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

Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those projected. The Company cautions investors that any forward-looking statements made by the Company are not guarantees of future performance and actual results may differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include without limitation: established competitors who have substantially greater financial resources and operating histories, regulatory delays or denials, ability to compete as a start-up company in a highly competitive market and access to sources of capital.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this form 10-Q. Except for the historical information contained herein, the discussion in this form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties, such as statements of plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. The cautionary statements made in this form 10-Q should be read as being applicable to all related forward-looking statements wherever they appear in this form 10-Q. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those discussed here.

Lightlake Therapeutics, Inc. is an early stage biopharmaceutical company, currently developing a new approach for the treatment of overweight and obese patients with binge eating disorder. Our strategy is to build a specialist Biopharmaceutical Company based on our expertise using opioid antagonists.

The Company will conduct a Phase II clinical trial to investigate the use of intranasal naloxone for obese and overweight patients with binge eating. Our approach is unique, through using a single agent with known safety, delivered intra-nasally, in response to behavioral stimuli, and selectively addressing a subset of obese and overweight patients which is approximately 25% of all obese and overweight patients. We believe this approach will deliver successful outcomes in a challenging area that has recently encountered several failures.

We now aim to commence a 6 month randomized, double blind placebo controlled trial in Helsinki, Finland during the third quarter of 2011.  It is our aim for this trial to be FDA compliant. We have identified a suitable nasal spray manufacturer, and patient selection for the Phase II trial is completed, with 298 candidates for the trial.  A total of 138 individuals with the appropriate genetic marker will be recruited from this patient base.

If the outcome of Phase II is favorable, we aim to collaborate with other parties to progress and fund Phase III, which will be held at the Imperial College London, in the UK and other international institutions. We currently have such an agreement with Celesio AG and we will pursue similar relationships over the next 12 months.  At this point the management team will be strengthened accordingly. During the next year we aim to broaden our product pipeline, and anticipate acquiring additional patents that relate to the use of opioid antagonists.

On November 29, 2010, the Company announced Dr. Michael Sinclair, a seasoned healthcare executive, as the Company’s new Executive Chairman.

On December 16, 2011, the Company announced it had acquired US Patent 5,587,381, entitled: ‘Method for terminating methadone maintenance through extinction of the opiate-taking responses’, using an opioid antagonist as treatment. The Company aims to leverage its’ capabilities into new therapeutic areas. The potential to expand the product pipeline into this area is important progress for Lightlake Therapeutics.  The patent was acquired for 7,116,667 warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.25 per share.  The issuance date of these warrants was November 29, 2010 and they expire in 5 years.
 
On December 29, 2011, the Company announced that it had appointed Mary K. Pendergast J.D., LL.M., as its advisor for Regulatory and Strategic Matters.  She is President of Pendergast Consulting, a legal and regulatory consulting firm founded in 2003.  Her background consists of a distinguished pedigree in her field including serving as Deputy Commissioner and Senior Advisor at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.

PLAN OF OPERATION

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

During the year ended July 31, 2010, the company carried out operations to exploit the patent and patent applications it acquired on August 24, 2009 the company acquired European Patent EP1681057B1 and U.S. Patent Application 11/031,534. The company was informed on Oct. 15, 2010, that the Examiner has approved the application and that the US Patent will be granted.

In November, 2009 the clinical trial team in Helsinki, Finland was granted ethical approval to begin screening subjects for a future Phase II clinical trial under the direction of its trial coordinator Professor Hannu Eero Rafael Alho, Professor of Addiction Medicine, University of Helsinki. The Trial is being conducted in conjunction with the National Institute for Health and Welfare, in Helsinki, Finland. The screening has been completed for patient selection for the Phase II trial. A total of 900 people contacted Lightlake. Of these 298 have had gene samples analyzed, in preparation to the selection of the 138 subjects for the trial

The company on May 6, 2010, was granted ethical approval for the Phase II trial itself . It is to be held at the National Institute for Health and Welfare, in Helsinki, Finland. A preliminary meeting with the FIMEA Regulatory Authority was held on May 7 and their requirements for approval obtained.

Our plan of operation for the next twelve months is to pursue the Phase II clinical trials in Helsinki, Finland on the user patents that were acquired by the company from Dr. David Sinclair, in exchange for 20,333,333 restricted common shares on August 24, 2009.  The safe and effective treatment is a proprietary patented pharmaceutical medicine-based program pioneered by Dr. David Sinclair.

We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue the Phase II clinical trials in Helsinki, Finland.

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

There has been no bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding.

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

We are required to comply with all regulations, rules and directives of governmental authorities and agencies applicable to the clinical testing and manufacturing of pharmaceutical product.

We have one patent application with the US Patent Office (US Patent application, Jan. 10, 2005, Appln. S.N. 11/031,534) (see exhibit 6) The Company was informed on Oct. 15, 2010, that the Examiner has approved the application and that the US Patent will be granted. We are in the planning stages of branding and naming our future product.  We plan to trademark the product name and the overall weight loss program.  We have no current plans for any registrations such as franchises, concessions, royalty agreements or labor contracts. We will assess the need for any of these applications on an ongoing basis.

On December 16, 2011 the Company announced it had acquired US Patent 5,587,381, entitled: ‘Method for terminating methadone maintenance through extinction of the opiate-taking responses’, using an opioid antagonist as treatment. The Company aims to leverage its capabilities into new therapeutic areas. The potential to expand the product pipeline into this area is important progress for Lightlake Therapeutics.  The patent was acquired for 7,116,667 warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.25 per share the issuance date of these warrants was November 29, 2010 and expire in5 years.

We are required to apply for or have any government approval for our products or services.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our cash reserves are not sufficient to meet our obligations for the next twelve month period. As a result, we will need to seek additional funding in the near future. We currently do not have a specific plan of how we will obtain such funding; however, we anticipate that additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock. We may also seek to obtain short-term loans from our directors, although no such arrangements have been made. At this time, we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to obtain sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock or through a loan from our directors to meet our obligations over the next twelve months. We do not have any arrangements in place for any future equity financing.
