DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 
Our Corporate History and Background
 
Sandfield Ventures Corp. was incorporated in the state of Nevada in 2007.  Its primary business was resource exploration in that state. Management of our company decided to take on a new direction for the business. The new strategy is to focus on consumer goods – primarily branded nutrition products and ingredients.  On June 12, 2013 the Board of Directors approved an agreement and plan of merger with a wholly-owned subsidiary called Trident Brands Incorporated.  At that point it affected the name change from Sandfield Ventures Corp. to Trident Brands Incorporated.

On July 9, 2013, our company's board of directors approved a resolution to effect a 4 for 1 forward split. Upon effect of the forward split, our authorized capital increased from 75,000,000 to 300,000,000 shares of common stock and correspondingly, our issued and outstanding shares of common stock will be increased from 7,000,000 to 28,000,000 shares of common stock, all with a par value of $0.001
 
On August 1, 2013, our directors approved the adoption of a 2013 Stock Option Plan which permits us to issue up to 4,200,000 shares of its common stock to directors, officers, employees and consultants of our company upon the exercise of stock options granted under the 2013 Stock Option Plan.
 
On December 23, 2013, we took on an agreement with Everlast World’s Boxing Headquarters Corp., International Brand Management & Licensing. Through this agreement, we received a 15 year license to market and sell products in the nutritional foods and supplements category under the Everlast® brand. Trident’s licensing agreement enables it to introduce a portfolio of nutritional products in categories such as supplements and functional foods using this brand mark.
 
Effective March 21, 2014, we appointed the following individuals as officers and directors:

·  
Donald MacPhee was appointed to our Board of Directors, Chairman of the Audit Committee and as a member of the Corporate Governance Committee.
·  
Scott Chapman was appointed to our Board of Directors, Chairman of the Corporate Governance Committee, member of the Audit Committee and member of the Compensation Committee.
·  
Michael Browne was appointed as our President, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary.
·  
Peter Salvo was appointed as our Controller.
 
Mark Holcombe resigned as Chief Executive Officer, President, Secretary and Treasurer, and has been appointed as Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chairman of the Compensation Committee. Mr. Holcombe's resignation as Chief Executive Officer, President, Secretary and Treasurer was not the result of any disagreement with our company regarding its operations, policies, practices or otherwise.
 
On May 5, 2014, we entered into a Product Development Agreement with Continental Ingredients Canada Inc. with respect to our plan to commercialize nutritional supplements and functional food and beverage products for sales in North America.

Under the Agreement, we have engaged Continental Ingredients on an exclusive basis to provide services for the development, manufacturing and supply of our products for a period of five years commencing on May 5, 2014 and ending on May 5, 2019, such term to renew automatically for a further 12 months unless either party delivers written termination notice six months prior to the expiration of the initial term or renewal period.
 
On May 5, 2014, we appointed Robert Campbell and Karen Arseneault as special advisors.
 
Also on May 5, 2014, we granted an aggregate of 2,875,000 stock options to directors, officers, employees and consultants of our company pursuant to our 2013 Stock Plan. The stock options are exercisable for five years from the date of grant at exercise prices of $0.75 per share for shares vesting 12 months from the date of issuance, $1.00 per share for shares vesting 24 months from the date of issuance and $1.50 for shares vesting 36 months from the date of issuance. Of the 2,875,000 stock options granted, we granted:

1.  
1,125,000 stock options to our President, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary, Michael Browne;
2.  
300,000 stock options to each of our directors, Donald MacPhee, Scott Chapman, Mark Holcombe;
3.  
150,000 stock options to its controller, Peter Salvo; and
4.  
350,000 stock options to each of our special advisors, Robert Campbell and Karen Arseneault.

Our administrative office is located at 200 South Executive Drive, Suite 101, Brookfield, Wisconsin, 53005. Our fiscal year end is November 30.
 
Business Overview
 
We are an emerging growth company focused on developing consumer products and/or consumer product ingredients.
 
Our objective is the creation of value through strategic investments in high growth early stage consumer brands and ingredients businesses. We intend to focus on control investments in companies within segment/sectors which are currently experiencing long term growth. Our goal is to provide our shareholders with private equity like returns through strategic investments in multiple branded platforms.
 
We are targeting the follow growth segments that include the following:

·  
Brand licenses or consolidated licenses;
·  
Functional food and beverage;
·  
Food/beverage ingredients with competitive differentiation;
·  
Life science technology that have applications in consumer products;
·  
Natural and organic food and beverage; and
·  
Intellectual property and/or licenses in recognized brand platforms.
 
We will identify products or brands with competitive advantage that meet specific criteria:

·  
extending established brands with existing equity;
·  
delivering consumer benefits with unique technology or intellectual properties; and
·  
targeting dynamic growth segments.
 
Our company brings together expertise in branded consumer products marketing, sales, corporate finance, private equity. The principals of our company have experience in developing and commercializing consumer products in global companies and specialty markets.
 
Additional Investment Strategy
 
Our company may seek to acquire majority and/or control positions through common and preferred equity, senior secured, unsecured, and convertible debt in organizations who meet our investment hurdles. Through our management and directors’ expertise in both consumer goods and investment experience, we seek to provide our shareholders with near term accretive value and liquidity. Through strategic investments and controlled organic growth, we may seek to provide our investors with solid short and long turn returns and yields.

 
4

 
 
We will consider a range of investment approaches to meet our value creation goal while mitigating risk by creating a diverse portfolio of companies:

·  
Make strategic controlled investments in high growth companies;
·  
evaluate and execute strategic acquisitions of divisions of larger corporations through leverage buyouts;
·  
Merge brands/business lines into larger multi-national companies; and
·  
Build strategic brands organically.
 
Sources of Competitive Advantage.
 
Product Development:
 
Our company has a unique, five-year renewable product supply partnership agreement with Continental Ingredients Canada Inc. Continental Ingredients is a food and beverage ingredient manufacturer and distributor in Canada and the United States. Continental Ingredients provides access to a network of North American and global scale ingredient suppliers and Co. manufacturers with product development and manufacturing capabilities.  Through this partnership, we will be able to  efficiently develop products that can compete and win against larger scale, established competition.
 
Lean operations:
 
Trident will not invest capital in proprietary R&D, manufacturing, or logistics assets. Its strategy is to outsource/contract for these functions, creating unique solutions tailored to each market opportunity.  This approach allows for greater flexibility than larger scale competitors, while managing the business to a low breakeven point.  Route to market strategy on each product will be designed to maximize margin capture. Since we do not have investment in distribution assets or salesforce, we can identify and apply the best sales platform specific to each target opportunity.
 
Industry Expertise:
 
The principals of Trident Brands Incorporated, its special advisory board, and its partnerships combine broad executive experience. This combination of management expertise benefits Trident in two ways.  First, the operations of our company will be informed by experience in all facets of consumer goods commercial execution, financial management, managing licenses and partnerships, private equity and acquisition strategy.  Second, our company has a network of industry contacts, creating exposure to a broad range of new business opportunities.
 
Product Range:
 
Our company is considering a number of different investment ideas to deliver a diverse growth portfolio. Through its industry network, the principals of Trident Brands have a number of development opportunities on the radar screen. All options will be assessed using rigorous assessment/due diligence practices built on private equity experience.  Market criteria will include financial attractiveness, probability of market success, and strategic fit with our skills and resources. Currently Trident Brands is reviewing business concepts in the following categories:

·  
Brand licenses or consolidated licenses
·  
Functional food and beverage
·  
Food/beverage ingredients with competitive differentiation
·  
Life Science technology that have applications in consumer products
·  
Natural and organic food and beverage
·  
Intellectual property and/or licenses in recognized brand platforms
 
First Brand Launch – Everlast® Line of Nutrition Products
 
Trident Brands will launch a line of nutrition supplement products under the brand name Everlast®. Trident has acquired a license from IBML (a worldwide leader in brand licensing) for the internationally recognized brand Everlast® in the sports nutrition category, North America. Key facts about Everlast®.

·  
Since 1910, Everlast® has been the preeminent brand in the world of combat sports and is among the most dominant brands in the overall sporting goods, fitness and lifestyle industries.

 
5

 

·  
Everlast® is the market leader in nearly all of its product categories.
·  
Everlast® products are sold in over 20,000 retail locations throughout the United States and Canada, including a variety of department stores, specialty stores, catalogue operations and better mass merchandisers and online.
 
Market Opportunity:
 
In the United States, dietary supplement sales are projected to hit $33 billion in 2013 (Source: Nutrition Business Journal).  This market segment has grown from $22 billion in 2005, with growth rates of 7% annually in each of the last four years.  This market is significantly faster growing then overall consumer goods sales. US supermarket sales have increased 2.8% over the last 12 months. (Source: Advance Monthly Sales for retail and food services).
 
This segment is expected to continue dynamic growth, driven by favorable demographic trends, increased media coverage of dietary issues with processed foods, and greater emphasis on preventive health/wellness practices in the healthcare industry.
 
Competition:
 
The dietary supplement segment is highly fragmented across brands, companies, and distribution points. There are no dominant players.
 
The major retail competition is General Nutrition Corporation (“GNC”). GNC has nearly $2.5 billion in revenue across all countries. GNC holds a 5% share of the US market segment.  GNC’s success is an indicator of the attractiveness of the segment. GNC’s current Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization is reported at 19.7%.
 
HerbaLife International and Sensa are two companies with strong sales and distribution. Each of these companies has recently received media coverage questioning its business practices and/or product claims.  These cases demonstrate that there is a business opportunity for a trusted brand such as Everlast®, supported by hard science.
 
The majority of segment volume is marketed under an array of specialty brands with limited brand recognition.  These brands rely on viral marketing or aggressive distribution tactics for success. Everlast® can take share from this competitive set through superior brand recognition. Its awareness level is high with the target group and therefore can be marketed more efficiently and convert consumers to sale with lower incentives.
 
Product line:
 
We will launch 6 – 8 unique Everlast® products over a 24 month period.  Each product will be targeted at a significant sector of the dietary supplement category (e.g. weight management, muscle tone, etc.)  Each product will feature a proprietary active ingredient that has a clinically supported hard nutrition claim.
 
The first product launch will be “Everlast® Lean. Weight Management System”. This product will be sold to consumers as a 2 part supplement plan:

·  
Sachet powder drink mix packaged in single serve portions. Intended for daily use, this product features a patented active ingredient called Fabuless™.  The active ingredient has proven in human clinical studies to suppress appetite and leads to a net calorie intake reduction of 20%. Koninklijke DSM N.V. (“DSM”), a global materials and ingredients company, would supply the active ingredient on a nonexclusive basis pursuant to their normal course of business, of which we have not entered into any agreements with.
·  
Tablet form supplement intended for daily use.  This supplement includes a patented active ingredient called TeavigoTM. This ingredient has proven in clinical studies to support/boost metabolism. DSM, a global materials and ingredients company, is supplying the active ingredient on a nonexclusive basis pursuant to their normal course of business, of which we have not entered into any agreements with.
 
Route to market for Everlast® nutrition products:
 
We will employ an e-commerce distribution platform, selling direct to consumer through a secure online retail site and fulfillment service.  Ecommerce has become a mainstream retail channel, growing 10% a year, and by 2017 will constitute 10% of all retail sales in the United States.  Importantly, it is especially effective in the dietary supplements segment, representing approximately 50% of industry sales.

 
6

 
 
E-commerce will allow us to adapt the marketing message and targeting to optimize its effectiveness. In addition, it enables quick speed to market with new products. Whereas a traditional retail selling cycle may take up to six months, e-commerce product sales can begin immediately with national distribution as soon as the manufacturing process is complete. E-commerce also allows a higher gross margin percent on the selling price since that margin is not shared with a wholesaler or retailer.

Material Contracts

On June 4, 2013, the Trade Mark License Agreement was entered into, as previously disclosed.  Pursuant to this agreement, Everlast Boxing granted a licence to Sports Nutrition to use certain Trade Marks (of Everlast Boxing) in respect of nutritional products. Manchester Capital agreed to guarantee the performance by the Sports Nutrition.  In exchange for the grant of the license by Everlast Boxing, Sports Nutrition agreed to pay, due on a quarterly basis, an annual minimum guaranteed royalty of:

1.  
Nil in 2013;
2.  
$120,000 in 2014 (50% of which has been paid as of the date of the most recent quarter);
3.  
$235,000 in 2015;
4.  
$320,000 in 2016;
5.  
$345,000 in 2017; and
6.  
from 2018 onwards, the greater of:
a.  
75% of the previous year’s royalty calculation; or
b.  
The previous year’s annual minimum guaranteed royalty plus 10%.

On December 23, 2013, we entered into the Assignment Agreement. Pursuant to the Assignment Agreement, Everlast Boxing, International Brand and Manchester Capital consented to and Sports Nutrition agreed to assign to our company the rights and obligations arising from the Trade Mark License Agreement.  Further, we agreed to perform the obligations of the Trade Mark License Agreement through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Sports Nutrition Products Inc.

On May 5, 2014, we entered into a Product Development Agreement with Continental Ingredients Canada Inc. with respect to our plan to commercialize nutritional supplements and functional food and beverage products for sales in North America (the “Product Agreement”).

Under the Agreement, our company has exclusively engaged Continental Ingredients to provide services for the development, manufacture and supply of our products for a period of five years commencing on May 5, 2014 and ending on May 5, 2019, such term to renew automatically for a further 12 months unless either party delivers written termination notice six months prior to the expiration of the initial term or renewal period.

Continental Ingredients will submit for approval from our company, proposals for the production of any products. Once product specifications have been approved by us, the parties will enter into separate production agreements for the manufacturing, pricing and distribution of the products (the “Production Agreements”). The pricing of the products under any Production Agreements will result in a gross margin to Continental Ingredients of between 20 to 30 percent, as more particularly described in the Product Agreement.

Our company will remain the sole owner or licensee of all intellectual property rights associated with the products.

On May 1, 2014, we obtained a short term loan of $200,000 from Rene Arseneault. The loan bears interest at the rate of 8.0% per annum, payable on maturity, calculated on the principle amount of the loan outstanding. Unless paid earlier, the loan and accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable in full on April 30, 2015. As of May 31, 2014, the full amount of the loan is outstanding and the accrued interest expense is $1,333.

On May 31, 2014, there is a loan payable due to Mark Holcombe, a director of our company, for $56,776 that is non-interest bearing with no specific repayment terms. This loan was by oral agreement.

Government Regulation

Our operations are subject to numerous federal, state and local laws and regulations in the United States and Canada in areas such as food and nutrition regulation, consumer protection, government contracts, trade, environmental protection, labor and employment, tax, licensing and others. For example, in the U.S., most states have food and nutrition laws and regulations directed specifically toward our industry.

The formulation, manufacturing, packaging, labeling, distribution, advertising, licensing, sale and storage of our products are affected by laws and governmental regulations.  New regulations or changes in the interpretations of existing regulations may result in significant compliance costs or discontinuation of product sales and may negatively impact the marketing of our products, resulting in loss of sales revenues. We are subject to FDA rules for current good manufacturing practices, or cGMPs, for the manufacture, packing, labeling and holding of dietary supplements distributed in the United States.  Trident has retained supply partners that implement a comprehensive quality assurance program designed to

The health and nutrition industry is also subject to requirements, codes and standards imposed by various insurance, approval and listing and standards organizations. Depending upon the type of food product and requirements of the applicable local governmental jurisdiction, adherence to the requirements, codes and standards of such organizations is mandatory in some instances and voluntary in others.

Amount Spent on Research and Development the Last Two Fiscal Years

We have not spent any money during each of the last two fiscal years on research and development activities.

Employees and Employment Agreements

Our officers and directors do not have written employment contracts with us. We presently do not have pension, health, annuity, insurance, profit sharing or similar benefit plans; however, we may adopt plans in the future. Except for our stock option plan, which no options have been issued, there are presently no personal benefits available to our officers and directors. Our officers and directors will handle our administrative duties.
 
Our only employee is our President, Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary, Michael Browne. Mr. Browne currently devotes 100% of his time to the company.  Mr. Browne entered into an employment contract with us beginning on March 18, 2014 for a term of one year.  Pursuant to this contract, Mr. Browne is to act as our President.  In exchange for his services to our company as President, we will compensate Mr. Browne with a base annual salary of $5,000 prior to the start of consumer sales, and $10,000 monthly thereafter. Additionally, Mr. Browne will receive the following equity options granted pursuant to our Stock Option Plan:

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with all of the other information included in this report, before making an investment decision. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could suffer. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. You should read the section entitled “Special Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements” above for a discussion of what types of statements are forward-looking statements, as well as the significance of such statements in the context of this report.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

You should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in this report before making an investment decision with regard to our securities. The statements contained in or incorporated into this current report on Form 8-K that are not historic facts are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by forward-looking statements. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

We have a limited operating history with significant losses and expect losses to continue for the foreseeable future.

We have yet to establish any history of profitable operations and, as at May 31, 2013, have incurred a net loss of $278,159 since our inception on November 5, 2007. Our business operations began in 2007 and have resulted in net losses in each year. We have generated only nominal revenues since our inception and do not anticipate that we will generate revenues which will be sufficient to sustain our operations in the near future. Our profitability will require the successful commercialization and sales of our planned products. We may not be able to successfully achieve any of these requirements or ever become profitable.

There is doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to recurring losses from operations, accumulated deficit and insufficient cash resources to meet our business objectives, all of which means that we may not be able to continue operations.
 
Our independent auditors have added an explanatory paragraph to their audit opinion issued in connection with the financial statements for the years ended November 30, 2013 and 2012 with respect to their doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to our financial statements for the years ended November 30, 2013 and 2012, we have generated operating losses since inception, and our cash resources are insufficient to meet our planned business objectives, which together raises doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

We could face intense competition, which could result in lower revenues and higher expenditures and could adversely affect our results of operations.

Unless we keep pace with changing market demands, we could lose existing customers and fail to win new and retain any future customers. In order to compete effectively in the food and nutrition industry, we must continually design, develop implement and market new and/or enhanced products and strategies. Our future success will depend, in part, upon our ability to address the changing and sophisticated needs of the marketplace. Our strategy of expanding our food and nutrition business could adversely affect our business operations and financial condition.

Further, we expect to derive over a significant amount of revenue from our food and nutrition products, which are often non-standard, involve competitive bidding, and may produce volatility in earnings and revenue.

Our plan to pursue sales of our product in international markets may be limited by risks related to conditions in such markets.

We are governed by only three persons serving as directors and officers which may lead to faulty corporate governance.

We have not implemented various corporate governance measures nor have we adopted any independent committees as we presently do not have any independent directors.

We must attract and maintain key personnel or our business will fail.

Success depends on the acquisition of key personnel. We will have to compete with other companies both within and outside the food and nutrition industry to recruit and retain competent employees. If we cannot maintain qualified employees to meet the needs of our anticipated growth, this could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

We may not be able to secure additional financing to meet our future capital needs due to changes in general economic conditions.

We anticipate requiring significant capital to fulfill our contractual obligations (as noted in our audited financial statements), continue development of our planned products to meet market evolution, and execute our business plan, generally.  We may use capital more rapidly than currently anticipated and incur higher operating expenses than currently expected, and we may be required to depend on external financing to satisfy our operating and capital needs. We may need new or additional financing in the future to conduct our operations or expand our business. Any sustained weakness in the general economic conditions and/or financial markets in the United States or globally could adversely affect our ability to raise capital on favorable terms or at all. From time to time we have relied, and may also rely in the future, on access to financial markets as a source of liquidity to satisfy working capital requirements and for general corporate purposes. We may be unable to secure debt or equity financing on terms acceptable to us, or at all, at the time when we need such funding. If we do raise funds by issuing additional equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership percentages of existing stockholders would be reduced, and the securities that we issue may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the holders of our common stock or may be issued at a discount to the market price of our common stock which would result in dilution to our existing stockholders. If we raise additional funds by issuing debt, we may be subject to debt covenants, which could place limitations on our operations including our ability to declare and pay dividends. Our inability to raise additional funds on a timely basis would make it difficult for us to achieve our business objectives and would have a negative impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our business and operating results could be harmed if we fail to manage our growth or change.

Our business may experience periods of rapid change and/or growth that could place significant demands on our personnel and financial resources. To manage possible growth and change, we must continue to try to locate skilled professionals in the food and nutrition industry and adequate funds in a timely manner.
 
We have a limited operating history and if we are not successful in continuing to grow our business, then we may have to scale back or even cease our ongoing business operations.
 
We have achieved no revenues and have limited assets. There can be no assurance that we will ever operate profitably. We have a limited operating history. Our success is significantly dependent on the successful marketing and sales of our food and nutritional products, which cannot be guaranteed. Our operations will be subject to all the risks inherent in the uncertainties arising from the absence of a significant operating history. We may be unable to complete the marketing and implementation of our food and nutritional products and operate on a profitable basis. Potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by enterprises in the development stage. If our business plan is not successful, and we are not able to operate profitably, investors may lose some or all of their investment in our company.

If our intellectual property is not adequately protected, then we may not be able to compete effectively and we may not be profitable.
 
Our commercial success may depend, in part, on obtaining and maintaining patent protection, trade secret protection and regulatory protection of our technologies and product candidates as well as successfully defending third-party challenges to such technologies and candidates. We will be able to protect our technologies and product candidates from use by third parties only to the extent that valid and enforceable patents, trade secrets or regulatory protection cover them and we have exclusive rights to use them. The ability of our licensors, collaborators and suppliers to maintain their patent rights against third-party challenges to their validity, scope or enforceability will also play an important role in determining our future.
 
The patent positions of technology related companies can be highly uncertain and involve complex legal and factual questions that include unresolved principles and issues. No consistent policy regarding the breadth of claims allowed regarding such companies’ patents has emerged to date in the United States, and the patent situation outside the United States is even more uncertain. Changes in either the patent laws or in interpretations of patent laws in the United States or other countries may diminish the value of our intellectual property. Accordingly, we cannot predict with any certainty the range of claims that may be allowed or enforced concerning our patents.
 
We may also rely on trade secrets to protect our technologies, especially where we do not believe patent protection is appropriate or obtainable. However, trade secrets are difficult to protect. While we seek to protect confidential information, in part, through confidentiality agreements with our consultants and scientific and other advisors, they may unintentionally or willfully disclose our information to competitors. Enforcing a claim against a third party related to the illegal acquisition and use of trade secrets can be expensive and time consuming, and the outcome is often unpredictable. If we are not able to maintain patent or trade secret protection on our technologies and product candidates, then we may not be able to exclude competitors from developing or marketing competing products, and we may not be able to operate profitability.
 
If we are the subject of an intellectual property infringement claim, the cost of participating in any litigation could cause us to go out of business.
 
There has been, and we believe that there will continue to be, significant litigation and demands for licenses in our industry regarding patent and other intellectual property rights. Although we anticipate having a valid defense to any allegation that our current products, production methods and other activities infringe the valid and enforceable intellectual property rights of any third parties, we cannot be certain that a third party will not challenge our position in the future. Other parties may own patent rights that we might infringe with our products or other activities, and our competitors or other patent holders may assert that our products and the methods we employ are covered by their patents. These parties could bring claims against us that would cause us to incur substantial litigation expenses and, if successful, may require us to pay substantial damages. Some of our potential competitors may be better able to sustain the costs of complex patent litigation, and depending on the circumstances, we could be forced to stop or delay our research, development, manufacturing or sales activities. Any of these costs could cause us to go out of business.

We could lose our competitive advantages if we are not able to protect any our food and nutritional products and intellectual property rights against infringement, and any related litigation could be time-consuming and costly.

Our success and ability to compete depends to a significant degree on our license and the ability to use our food and nutritional products. If any of our competitor’s copies or otherwise gains access to any of our competitive advantages or develops similar products independently, we would not be able to compete as effectively.

We also consider our assigned trademarks invaluable to our ability to continue to develop and maintain the goodwill and recognition associated with our brand. These and any other measures that we may take to protect our intellectual property rights, which presently are based upon a combination of copyright, trade secret and trademark laws, may not be adequate to prevent their unauthorized use.
 
Further, the laws of foreign countries may provide inadequate protection of such intellectual property rights. We may need to bring legal claims to enforce or protect such intellectual property rights. Any litigation, whether successful or unsuccessful, could result in substantial costs and diversions of resources. In addition, notwithstanding any rights we have secured in our intellectual property, other persons may bring claims against us that we have infringed on their intellectual property rights, including claims based upon the content we license from third parties or claims that our intellectual property right interests are not valid. Any claims against us, with or without merit, could be time consuming and costly to defend or litigate, divert our attention and resources, result in the loss of goodwill associated with our service marks or require us to make changes to our website or other of our technologies.

If we fail to effectively manage our growth our future business results could be harmed and our managerial and operational resources may be strained.

As we proceed with the commercialization of our technology, we expect to experience significant and rapid growth in the scope and complexity of our business. We will need to add staff to market our services, manage operations, handle sales and marketing efforts and perform finance and accounting functions. We will be required to hire a broad range of additional personnel in order to successfully advance our operations. This growth is likely to place a strain on our management and operational resources. The failure to develop and implement effective systems, or to hire and retain sufficient personnel for the performance of all of the functions necessary to effectively service and manage our potential business, or the failure to manage growth effectively, could have a materially adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

Our services may become obsolete and unmarketable if we are unable to respond adequately to rapidly changing technology and customer demands.

Our industry is characterized by rapid changes market demands. As a result, our products may quickly become obsolete and unmarketable. Our future success will depend on our ability to adapt to and anticipate market demands, develop new products and enhance our current products on a timely and cost-effective basis. Further, our products must remain competitive with those of other companies with substantially greater resources. We may experience technical or other difficulties that could delay or prevent the development, introduction or marketing of new products or enhanced versions of existing products. Also, we may not be able to adapt new or enhanced services to emerging industry or governmental standards.

Our failure to appropriately respond to changing consumer preferences and demand for new products or product enhancements could significantly harm product sales and harm our financial condition and operating results.

Our business is subject to changing consumer trends and preferences, especially with respect to weight management products. Our success depends on our ability to anticipate and respond to these changes, and we may not respond in a timely or commercially appropriate manner to such changes. The nutritional supplement industry is characterized by rapid and frequent changes in demand new product introductions and enhancements. Our failure to predict these trends could negatively impact consumer opinion of our products.

If we do not introduce new products or make enhancements to adequately meet the changing needs of our customers, some of our products could fail in the marketplace, which could negatively impact our revenues, financial condition and operating results.

The business of marketing weight management and nutrition products is highly competitive and sensitive to the introduction of new products or weight management plans, including various prescription drugs, which may rapidly capture a significant share of the market. These market segments include numerous manufacturers, distributors, marketers, retailers and physicians that actively compete for the business of consumers.

For example, if our competitors develop other diet or weight management treatments that prove to be more effective than our products, demand for our products could be reduced. Accordingly, we may not be able to compete effectively in our markets and competition may intensify.

In addition, because the industry in which we operate is not particularly capital intensive or otherwise subject to high barriers to entry, it is relatively easy for new competitors to emerge who will compete with us.

We are affected by laws and governmental regulations with potential penalties or claims, which could harm our financial condition and operating results.

The formulation, manufacturing, packaging, labeling, distribution, advertising, licensing, sale and storage of our products are affected by laws and governmental regulations.

New regulations or changes in the interpretations of existing regulations may result in significant compliance costs or discontinuation of product sales and may negatively impact the marketing of our products, resulting in loss of sales revenues.  We are subject to FDA rules for current good manufacturing practices, or cGMPs, for the manufacture, packing, labeling and holding of dietary supplements distributed in the United States.  Trident has retained supply partners that implement a comprehensive quality assurance program designed to

If contract manufacturers fail to comply with the cGMPs, this could negatively impact Trident’s reputation and ability to sell its products even though Trident is not directly liable under the cGMPs for such compliance.

 
12

 

Since we rely on independent third parties for the manufacture and supply of certain of our products, if these third parties fail to reliably supply products to us at required levels of quality and which are manufactured in compliance with applicable laws, then our financial condition and operating results would be harmed.

We cannot assure you that our outside contract manufacturers will continuously,  reliably supply products to us at the levels of quality, or the quantities, we require, and in compliance with applicable laws, including under the FDA’s cGMP regulations.  Additionally, while we are not presently aware of any current liquidity issues with our suppliers, we cannot assure you that they will not experience financial hardship or capacity constraints in future that could interrupt supply.
We may incur material product liability claims, which could increase our costs and harm our financial condition and operating results.

Our products will consist of vitamins, minerals and other ingredients that are classified as foods or dietary supplements and are not subject to pre-market regulatory approval in the United States. Our products could contain contaminated substances, and some of our products contain some ingredients that do not have long histories of human consumption. We rely upon published and unpublished safety information including clinical studies on ingredients used in our products. Previously unknown adverse reactions resulting from human consumption of these ingredients could occur. As a marketer of dietary and nutritional supplements and other products that are ingested by consumers or applied to their bodies, we may be subjected to various product liability claims, including that the products contain contaminants, the products include inadequate instructions as to their uses, or the products include inadequate warnings concerning side effects and interactions with other substances. It is possible that widespread product liability claims could increase our costs, and adversely affect our revenues and operating income. Moreover, liability claims arising from a serious adverse event may increase our costs through higher insurance premiums and deductibles, and may make it more difficult to secure adequate insurance coverage in the future.

Credit Risk

Our company has secured a loan of $200,000 bearing interest at the rate of 8% per annum, calculated on the principle amount of the loan outstanding. The loan and accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable in full on April 30, 2015. Our company had $75,867 in cash at the end of May 31, 2014. Unless we are able to generate cash from the sale of product or obtains long term financing, we may not be able to fulfill its obligation to pay off the loan.

RISKS RELATING TO OWNERSHIP OF OUR SECURITIES
 
Our stock price may be volatile, which may result in losses to our shareholders.
 
The stock markets have experienced significant price and trading volume fluctuations, and the market prices of companies listed on the OTCQB quotation system in which shares of our common stock are listed, have been volatile in the past and have experienced sharp share price and trading volume changes. The trading price of our common stock is likely to be volatile and could fluctuate widely in response to many factors, including the following, some of which are beyond our control:

·  
variations in our operating results;
·  
changes in expectations of our future financial performance, including financial estimates by securities analysts and investors;
·  
changes in operating and stock price performance of other companies in our industry;
·  
additions or departures of key personnel; and
·  
future sales of our common stock.
 
Domestic and international stock markets often experience significant price and volume fluctuations. These fluctuations, as well as general economic and political conditions unrelated to our performance, may adversely affect the price of our common stock.

Our common shares may become thinly traded and you may be unable to sell at or near ask prices, or at all.

We cannot predict the extent to which an active public market for trading our common stock will be sustained. Although the trading volume of our common shares increased significantly recently, it has historically been sporadically or “thinly-traded” meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common shares at or near bid prices at certain given time may be relatively small or non-existent.

 
13

 

This situation is attributable to a number of factors, including the fact that we are a small company which is relatively unknown to stock analysts, stock brokers, institutional investors and others in the investment community who generate or influence sales volume. Even if we came to the attention of such persons, those persons tend to be risk-averse and may be reluctant to follow, purchase, or recommend the purchase of shares of an unproven company such as ours until such time as we become more seasoned and viable. As a consequence, there may be periods of several days or more when trading activity in our shares is minimal or non-existent, as compared to a seasoned issuer which has a large and steady volume of trading activity that will generally support continuous sales without an adverse effect on share price. We cannot give you any assurance that a broader or more active public trading market for our common stock will develop or be sustained, or that current trading levels will be sustained.

The market price for our common stock is particularly volatile given our status as a relatively small company, which could lead to wide fluctuations in our share price. You may be unable to sell your common stock at or above your purchase price if at all, which may result in substantial losses to you.

Shareholders should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include (1) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (2) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (3) boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (4) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (5) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses. Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities. The occurrence of these patterns or practices could increase the volatility of our share price.

We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends to our common shareholders.

We presently do not anticipate that we will pay dividends on any of our common stock in the foreseeable future. If payment of dividends does occur at some point in the future, it would be contingent upon our revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements, and general financial condition. The payment of any common stock dividends will be within the discretion of our Board of Directors. We presently intend to retain all earnings after paying the interest for the preferred stock, if any, to implement our business plan; accordingly, we do not anticipate the declaration of any dividends for common stock in the foreseeable future.

We are listed on the OTCQB quotation system, our common stock is subject to “penny stock” rules which could negatively impact our liquidity and our shareholders’ ability to sell their shares.

Our common stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB. We must comply with numerous NASDAQ MarketPlace rules in order to maintain the listing of our common stock on the OTCQB. There can be no assurance that we can continue to meet the requirements to maintain the quotation on the OTCQB listing of our common stock. If we are unable to maintain our listing on the OTCQB, the market liquidity of our common stock may be severely limited.
 
Volatility in our common share price may subject us to securities litigation.

The market for our common stock is characterized by significant price volatility as compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will continue to be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. In the past, plaintiffs have often initiated securities class action litigation against a company following periods of volatility in the market price of its securities. We may, in the future, be the target of similar litigation. Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and liabilities and could divert management’s attention and resources.

The elimination of monetary liability against our directors, officers and employees under Nevada law and the existence of indemnification rights of our directors, officers and employees may result in substantial expenditures by our company and may discourage lawsuits against our directors, officers and employees.

Our Articles of Incorporation contains a specific provision that eliminates the liability of our directors and officers for monetary damages to our company and shareholders. Further, we are prepared to give such indemnification to our directors and officers to the extent provided for by Nevada law. We may also have contractual indemnification obligations under our employment agreements with our officers. The foregoing indemnification obligations could result in our company incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against directors and officers, which we may be unable to recoup. These provisions and resultant costs may also discourage our company from bringing a lawsuit against directors and officers for breaches of their fiduciary duties, and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by our shareholders against our directors and officers even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit our company and shareholders.
 
 
14

 
 
Our business is subject to changing regulations related to corporate governance and public disclosure that have increased both our costs and the risk of noncompliance.
 
Because our common stock is publicly traded, we are subject to certain rules and regulations of federal, state and financial market exchange entities charged with the protection of investors and the oversight of companies whose securities are publicly traded. These entities, including the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the SEC and FINRA, have issued requirements and regulations and continue to develop additional regulations and requirements in response to corporate scandals and laws enacted by Congress, most notably the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Our efforts to comply with these regulations have resulted in, and are likely to continue resulting in, increased general and administrative expenses and diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. Because new and modified laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations in many cases due to their lack of specificity, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. This evolution may result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and additional costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to our disclosure and governance practices.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited financial statements and the related notes for the six month periods ended May 31, 2014 and May 31, 2013 and audited financial statements and the related notes for the fiscal years ended November 30, 2013 and November 30, 2012 that appear elsewhere in this current report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to those discussed below and elsewhere in this annual report, particularly in the section entitled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 9 of this current report.
 
Our financial statements are stated in United States Dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.
 
Cash Requirements
 
Over the next 12 months we intend to carry on business as a food and nutrition product company. We anticipate that we will incur the following operating expenses during this period:

We will require funds of approximately $683,100 over the next twelve months to operate our business. These funds may be raised through equity financing, debt financing, or other sources, which may result in further dilution in the equity ownership of our shares. There is no assurance that we will be able to maintain operations at a level sufficient for an investor to obtain a return on their investment in our common stock. Further, we may continue to be unprofitable.
 
 
15

 
 
Purchase of Significant Equipment
 
We do not anticipate the purchase or sale of any plant or significant equipment during the next 12 months.
 
Going Concern
 
There is significant doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
 
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, we have incurred net losses of $278,159 since inception. This condition raises substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. In response to these conditions, we may raise additional capital through the sale of equity securities, through an offering of debt securities or through borrowings from financial institutions or individuals. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

Expenses for the three month period ended May 31, 2014 was $86,531 as compared to $24,487 for the comparative period in 2013. The increase in our expenses is primarily due to an increase in professional fees, marketing expenses and management salaries.
 
Expenses for the six month period ended May 31, 2014 was $92,421 as compared to $27,630 for the comparative year in May 31, 2013. Our increase in expenses is primarily due to the increases associated with our general administrative expenses of carrying on a business.
 
Equity Compensation
 
On August 1, 2013, the directors of our company approved the adoption of a 2013 Stock Option Plan which permits us to issue up to 4,200,000 shares of its common stock to directors, officers, employees and consultants of our company upon the exercise of stock options granted under the 2013 Stock Option Plan.

As of May 31, 2014, our company had working capital deficit of $203,159, $76,765 in total current assets and $279,924 in total current liabilities.
 
We are dependent on funds raised through equity financings and proceeds from shareholder loans. Our net loss of $278,159 from our inception on November 5, 2007 was funded primarily by financing and loans, as well as other capital contributions.

For the six month period ended May 31, 2014, we spent $131,556 on operations as compared to $30,065 for the comparative period in 2013. Since our inception until May 31, 2014, we spent $255,909 on operations. The increase of $101,491 in our expenditures on operating activities during the six months ended May 31, 2014 was primarily due to increases in our general and administrative and operating expenses and salaries due to our management.
 
For the six month period ended May 31, 2014, we received $207,293 from financing activities, which consisted entirely of loans from a related party and an unrelated party. During the six month period ended May 31, 2013, we received $25,873 from financing activities, which consisted entirely of advances from related parties.
 
We will require additional funds to fund our budgeted expenses over the next 12 months. These funds may be raised through, equity financing, debt financing, or other sources, which may result in further dilution in the equity ownership of our shares.

 
17

 

We anticipate that our expenses over the next 12 months (beginning August 2014) will be approximately $683,100 as described in the table above. These estimates may change significantly depending on the nature of our business activities and our ability to raise capital from our shareholders or other sources.
 
Contractual Obligations
 
As a “smaller reporting company”, we are not required to provide tabular disclosure obligations.
 
Inflation
 
Inflation and changing prices have not had a material effect on our business and we do not expect that inflation or changing prices will materially affect our business in the foreseeable future.
 
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
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 or capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to an investor in our securities.
 
Seasonality
 
Our operating results and operating cash flows historically have not been subject to seasonal variations. This pattern may change, however, in the event that we succeed in bringing our food and nutritional products to market.
 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of our company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in Trident’s Form 10-K filed with SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for fiscal 2013 as reported in the Form 10-K have been omitted.
 
Basic Earnings (Loss) Per Share
 
ASC No. 260, “Earnings Per Share”, specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings (loss) per share for entities with publicly held common stock. Our company has adopted the provisions of ASC No. 260.
 
Basic net earnings (loss) per share amounts is computed by dividing the net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are the same as basic earnings (loss) per share due to the lack of dilutive items in our company.
 
Cash Equivalents
 
We consider all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
 
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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. In accordance with ASC No. 250 all adjustments are normal and recurring.
 
 
18

 
 
Income Taxes
 
Income taxes are provided in accordance with ASC No. 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during the year of deferred tax assets and liabilities.
 
Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
 
Revenue
 
Our company records revenue on the accrual basis when all goods and services have been performed and delivered, the amounts are readily determinable, and collection is reasonably assured. Our company has not generated any revenue since its inception.
 
Advertising
 
Our company will expense its advertising when incurred. There has been no advertising since inception.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
Our company has evaluated all the recent accounting pronouncements through the date the financial statements were issued and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and believe that none of them will have a material effect on Our company’s financial statements.
 
Going Concern
 
The accompanying financial statements are presented on a going concern basis. Our company had no operations during the period from November 5, 2007 (date of inception) to November 30, 2013 and generated a net loss of $135,738. This condition raises substantial doubt about our company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our company is currently in the development stage and has minimal expenses, however, management believes that our company’s current cash of $131 is insufficient to cover the expenses they will incur during the next twelve months.
 
Stock Transactions
 
Transactions, other than employees’ stock issuance, are in accordance with ASC No. 505. Thus issuances shall be accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received. Transactions with employees’ stock issuance are in accordance with ASC No. 718. These issuances shall be accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, or whichever is more readily determinable.
 
On November 5, 2007, our company issued a total of 3,000,000 shares of common stock to Mark Holcombe for cash in the amount of $0.005 per share for a total of $15,000.
 
On July 23, 2008, our company issued a total of 4,000,000 shares of common stock to 27 unrelated shareholders for cash in the amount of $0.015 per share for a total of $60,000 pursuant to our company’s SB-2 registration statement.
 
On July 30, 2013, our company effected a 4 for 1 forward split of its share capital such that every one share of common stock to the split was exchanged for four post-split shares of common stock. As of November 30, 2013, our company had 28,000,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

There are no family relationships between any of our directors and officers.
 
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
 
To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors or executive officers has, during the past ten years:
 
 
1.
been convicted in a criminal proceeding or been subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offences);

 
22

 

 
2.
had any bankruptcy petition filed by or against the business or property of the person, or of any partnership, corporation or business association of which he was a general partner or executive officer, either at the time of the bankruptcy filing or within two years prior to that time;
 
 
 
 
3.
been subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction or federal or state authority, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting, his involvement in any type of business, securities, futures, commodities, investment, banking, savings and loan, or insurance activities, or to be associated with persons engaged in any such activity;
 
 
 
 
4.
been found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated;

 
5.
been the subject of, or a party to, any federal or state judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated (not including any settlement of a civil proceeding among private litigants), relating to an alleged violation of any federal or state securities or commodities law or regulation, any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order, or any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or
 
 
 
 
6.
been the subject of, or a party to, any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization (as defined in Section 3(a)(26) of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78c(a)(26))), any registered entity (as defined in Section 1(a)(29) of the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. 1(a)(29))), or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member.
 
Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
 
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our executive officers and directors and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the SEC initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership and annual reports concerning their ownership of our shares of common stock and other equity securities, on Forms 3, 4 and 5, respectively. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by the SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.
 
Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, or written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that during fiscal year ended November 30, 2013, all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than 10% percent beneficial owners were complied with.
 
Our company filed a post-effective amendment our SB-2 Registration to disclose the information reflecting the change to the corporation’s officer and director and the ownership of securities upon consummation of the transfer.
 
Code of Ethics
 
We have not adopted a code of ethics that applies to our officers, directors and employees. When we do adopt a code of ethics, we will disclose it in a Current Report on Form 8-K.
 
Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert
 
Our board of directors has determined that it does not have a member of its audit committee that qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K, and is “independent” as the term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv) of Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
 
We believe that our board of directors is capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. We believe that retaining an independent director who would qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in our circumstances given the early stages of our development and the fact that we have not generated any material revenues to date. In addition, we currently do not have nominating, compensation or audit committees or committees performing similar functions nor do we have a written nominating, compensation or audit committee charter. Our directors do not believe that it is necessary to have such committees because they believe the functions of such committees can be adequately performed by the members of our board of directors.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
 
Transactions with Related Persons of Our Company
 
The following includes a summary of transactions since the beginning of the November 30, 2013 fiscal year, or any currently proposed transaction, in which our company was or is to be a participant and the amount involved exceeded or exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of our total assets at year end for the last two completed fiscal years, and in which any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest (other than compensation described under “Executive Compensation”). We believe the terms obtained or consideration that we paid or received, as applicable, in connection with the transactions described below were comparable to terms available or the amounts that would be paid or received, as applicable, in arm’s-length transactions.

Mark Holcombe

On May 31, 2014, there is a loan payable due to Mark Holcombe, a director of our company, for $56,776 that is non-interest bearing with no specific repayment terms. This loan was by oral agreement.

In addition, our company rents office space from Mr. Holcombe for $500 per month.

Donald MacPhee

On May 5, 2014, we entered into a Product Development Agreement with Continental Ingredients Canada Inc. with respect to our plan to commercialize nutritional supplements and functional food and beverage products for sales in North America (the “Product Agreement”).

Under the Agreement, our company has exclusively engaged Continental Ingredients to provide services for the development, manufacture and supply of our products for a period of five years commencing on May 5, 2014 and ending on May 5, 2019, such term to renew automatically for a further 12 months unless either party delivers written termination notice six months prior to the expiration of the initial term or renewal period.

Continental Ingredients will submit for approval from our company, proposals for the production of any products. Once product specifications have been approved by us, the parties will enter into separate production agreements for the manufacturing, pricing and distribution of the products (the “Production Agreements”). The pricing of the products under any Production Agreements will result in a gross margin to Continental Ingredients of between 20 to 30 percent, as more particularly described in the Product Agreement.

Donald MacPhee is Managing Partner of Continental Ingredients with 45.5% ownership share in Continental Ingredients and a director of our company as of March 21, 2014. Continental Ingredients also owns 400,000 common shares of our company, which is approximately 1.43% of our issued and outstanding common stock.

Mark Holcombe, who is one of three directors of our company, was our only promoter in the past five fiscal years.

Corporate Governance

We currently act with three directors, consisting of Mark Holcombe, Donald MacPhee and Scott Chapman.

We have an audit committee, compensation committee and corporate governance committee.

However, all of the members of the committees are not independent. We believe that our board of directors is capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. The board of directors of our company does not believe that it is necessary to have a completely independent audit, compensation or corporate governance committee at this time because we believe that the functions of such committees can be adequately performed by the board of directors. Additionally, we believe that retaining independent directors would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in our circumstances given the early stages of our development.
 
Director Independence
 
We currently have only two independent directors, Scott Chapman and Donald MacPhee, as the term “independent” is defined by the rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market.
 
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which 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. Except as set forth below, we are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition or operating results.
 
MARKET PRICE AND DIVIDENDS ON OUR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
 
Market Information
 
Our common stock is not traded on any exchange. Our common stock is quoted on the OTCQB under the trading symbol “TDNT”. We cannot assure you that there will be an active market in the future for our common stock.

Since November 5, 2007 to August 21, 2014, there have only been 8 days of active trading of our common stock on the OTCQB. We cannot assure you that there will be an active market in the future for our common stock.

OTCQB securities are not listed and traded on the floor of an organized national or regional stock exchange. Instead, OTCQB securities transactions are conducted through a telephone and computer network connecting dealers. OTCQB Board issuers are traditionally smaller companies that do not meet the financial and other listing requirements of a national or regional stock exchange.
 
Holders
 
There has been no consistent active trading of our securities, and, therefore, no high and low bid pricing. As of August 22, 2014, we have 15 shareholders of record. This number does not include shares held by brokerage clearing houses, depositories or others in unregistered form.
 
Dividends
 
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. For the foreseeable future, we intend to retain any earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock.
 
Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
 
Common Stock
 
We are authorized to issue up to 300,000,000 shares of common stock, par value of $0.001 per share. Each outstanding share of common stock entitles the holder thereof to one vote per share on all matters. Our bylaws provide that any vacancy occurring in the board of directors may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors though less than a quorum of the board of directors. Stockholders do not have pre-emptive rights to purchase shares in any future issuance of our common stock.
 
The holders of shares of our common stock are entitled to dividends out of funds legally available when and as declared by our board of directors. Our board of directors has never declared a dividend and does not anticipate declaring a dividend in the foreseeable future. Should we decide in the future to pay dividends, as a holding company, our ability to do so and meet other obligations depends upon the receipt of dividends or other payments from our operating subsidiary and other holdings and investments. In the event of our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of our common stock are entitled to receive, rateably, the net assets available to stockholders after payment of all creditors.
 
All of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. To the extent that additional shares of our common stock are issued, the relative interests of existing stockholders will be diluted.

Anti-takeover Effects of Our Articles of Incorporation and By-laws
 
Our amended and restated articles of incorporation and bylaws contain certain provisions that may have anti-takeover effects, making it more difficult for or preventing a third party from acquiring control of our company or changing its board of directors and management. According to our bylaws and articles of incorporation, neither the holders of our company’s common stock nor the holders of our company’s preferred stock have cumulative voting rights in the election of our directors. The combination of the present ownership by a few stockholders of a significant portion of our company’s issued and outstanding common stock and lack of cumulative voting makes it more difficult for other stockholders to replace our company’s board of directors or for a third party to obtain control of our company by replacing its board of directors.
 
Anti-takeover Effects of Nevada Law
 
Business Combinations
 
The “business combination” provisions of Sections 78.411 to 78.444, inclusive, of the Nevada Revised Statutes, or NRS, prohibit a Nevada corporation with at least 200 stockholders from engaging in various “combination” transactions with any interested stockholder: for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the transaction is approved by the board of directors prior to the date the interested stockholder obtained such status; or after the expiration of the three-year period, unless:
 
 
(1)
the transaction is approved by the board of directors or a majority of the voting power held by disinterested stockholders, or
 
(2)
if the consideration to be paid by the interested stockholder is at least equal to the highest of: (a) the highest price per share paid by the interested stockholder within the three years immediately preceding the date of the announcement of the combination or in the transaction in which it became an interested stockholder, whichever is higher, (b) the market value per share of common stock on the date of announcement of the combination and the date the interested stockholder acquired the shares, whichever is higher, or (c) for holders of preferred stock, the highest liquidation value of the preferred stock, if it is higher.
 
A “combination” is defined to include mergers or consolidations or any sale, lease exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer or other disposition, in one transaction or a series of transactions, with an “interested stockholder” having: (a) an aggregate market value equal to 5% or more of the aggregate market value of the assets of the corporation, (b) an aggregate market value equal to 5% or more of the aggregate market value of all outstanding shares of the corporation, or (c) 10% or more of the earning power or net income of the corporation.
 
In general, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns (or within three years, did own) 10% or more of a corporation’s voting stock. The statute could prohibit or delay mergers or other takeover or change in control attempts and, accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire our company even though such a transaction may offer our stockholders the opportunity to sell their stock at a price above the prevailing market price.
 
Control Share Acquisitions
 
The “control share” provisions of Sections 78.378 to 78.3793, inclusive, of the NRS, which apply only to Nevada corporations with at least 200 stockholders, including at least 100 stockholders of record who are Nevada residents, and which conduct business directly or indirectly in Nevada, prohibit an acquirer, under certain circumstances, from voting its shares of a target corporation’s stock after crossing certain ownership threshold percentages, unless the acquirer obtains approval of the target corporation’s disinterested stockholders. The statute specifies three thresholds: one-fifth or more but less than one-third, one-third but less than a majority, and a majority or more, of the outstanding voting power. Once an acquirer crosses one of the above thresholds, those shares in an offer or acquisition and acquired within 90 days thereof become “control shares” and such control shares are deprived of the right to vote until disinterested stockholders restore the right. These provisions also provide that if control shares are accorded full voting rights and the acquiring person has acquired a majority or more of all voting power, all other stockholders who do not vote in favor of authorizing voting rights to the control shares are entitled to demand payment for the fair value of their shares in accordance with statutory procedures established for dissenters’ rights.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
 
Section 78.138 of the NRS provides that a director or officer will not be individually liable unless it is proven that (i) the director’s or officer’s acts or omissions constituted a breach of his or her fiduciary duties, and (ii) such breach involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law.
 
Section 78.7502 of NRS permits a company to indemnify its directors and officers against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred in connection with a threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding if the officer or director (i) is not liable pursuant to NRS 78.138 or (ii) acted in good faith and in a manner the officer or director reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, if a criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct of the officer or director was unlawful.
 
Section 78.751 of NRS permits a Nevada company to indemnify its officers and directors against expenses incurred by them in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding as they are incurred and in advance of final disposition thereof, upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the officer or director to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such officer or director is not entitled to be indemnified by the company. Section 78.751 of NRS further permits the company to grant its directors and officers additional rights of indemnification under its articles of incorporation or bylaws or otherwise.
 
Section 78.752 of NRS provides that a Nevada company may purchase and maintain insurance or make other financial arrangements on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the company, or is or was serving at the request of the company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, for any liability asserted against him and liability and expenses incurred by him in his capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the company has the authority to indemnify him against such liability and expenses.
 
Our Articles of Incorporation provide that no director or officer of our company will be personally liable to our company or any of its stockholders for damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer; provided, however, that the foregoing provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director or officer (i) for acts or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or knowing violation of law, or (ii) the unlawful payment of dividends. In addition, our bylaws permit for the indemnification and insurance provisions in Chapter 78 of the NRS.
 
Insofar as indemnification by us for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers or persons controlling our company pursuant to provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification by such director, officer or controlling person of us in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being offered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by us is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
 
At the present time, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving a director, officer, employee or other agent of ours in which indemnification would be required or permitted. We are not aware of any threatened litigation or proceeding, which may result in a claim for such indemnification.
 
Further, in the normal course of business, we may have in our contracts indemnification clauses, written as either mutual where each party will indemnify, defend, and hold each other harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations or covenants, or out of intellectual property infringement or other claims made against certain parties; or single where we have agreed to hold certain parties harmless against losses etc.

             REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors
Trident Brands Inc.

I have  audited the  accompanying  balance  sheets of Trident  Brands  Inc.  (An
Exploration  Stage  Company) as of November  30, 2013 and 2012,  and the related
statements  of  operations,  stockholders'  equity  and cash flows for the years
ended  November  30,  2013 and 2012 and for the  period  from  November  5, 2007
(inception),   to  November  30,  2013.  These  financial   statements  are  the
responsibility of the Company's  management.  My responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on my audit.

I conducted my audit in  accordance  with the  standards  of the Public  Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that I plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a
test basis,  evidence  supporting  the amounts and  disclosures in the financial
statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant  estimates  made by  management,  as well as evaluating  the overall
financial statement presentation.  I believe that my audit provides a reasonable
basis for my opinion.

In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material   respects,   the  financial  position  of  Trident  Brands  Inc.,  (An
Exploration  Stage Company) as of November 30, 2013 and 2012, and the results of
its operations and cash flows for the years ended November 30, 2013 and 2012 and
the period from November 5, 2007 (inception), to November 30, 2013 in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

The accompanying  financial  statements have been prepared  assuming the Company
will  continue as a going  concern.  As discussed  in Note # 4 to the  financial
statements,  the Company has had no operations and has no established  source of
revenue.  This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going
concern.  Management's plan in regard to these matters is also described in Note
# 4. The financial  statements do not include any adjustments  that might result
from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note: On July 30, 2013 the Company effected a 4 for 1 forward split of its share
      capital such that every one share of common stock issued and outstanding
      prior to the split was exchanged for four post-split shares of common
      stock. These forward splits have been retro-actively applied to all
      previous periods.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Trident Brands  Incorporated  (f/k/a Sandfield Ventures Corp.) (the Company) was
incorporated  under the laws of the State of Nevada on  November  5,  2007.  The
Company was formed to engage in the acquisition,  exploration and development of
natural resource properties.

The  Company  is in the  development  stage.  Its  activities  to date have been
limited to capital formation, organization, development of its business plan and
has completed the first two stages of its exploration program.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF ACCOUNTING

The Company's  financial  statements  are prepared  using the accrual  method of
accounting. The Company has elected a November 30, year-end.

BASIC EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

ASC No. 260, "Earnings Per Share",  specifies the computation,  presentation and
disclosure requirements for earnings (loss) per share for entities with publicly
held common stock. The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC No. 260.

Basic net  earnings  (loss) per share  amounts is computed  by dividing  the net
earnings  (loss) by the weighted  average  number of common shares  outstanding.
Diluted  earnings  (loss)  per share are the same as basic  earnings  (loss) per
share due to the lack of dilutive items in the Company.

CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Company considers all highly liquid  investments  purchased with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

USE OF ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS

The preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting principles 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. In accordance with ASC No. 250
all adjustments are normal and recurring.

                          Notes to Financial Statements

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

INCOME TAXES

Income taxes are provided in accordance with ASC No. 740,  Accounting for Income
Taxes.  A  deferred  tax  asset  or  liability  is  recorded  for all  temporary
differences   between  financial  and  tax  reporting  and  net  operating  loss
carryforwards. Deferred tax expense (benefit) results from the net change during
the year of deferred tax assets and liabilities.

Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of
management,  it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred
tax assets will be realized.  Deferred tax assets and  liabilities  are adjusted
for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

REVENUE

The Company  records  revenue on the accrual  basis when all goods and  services
have been performed and  delivered,  the amounts are readily  determinable,  and
collection  is  reasonably  assured.  The Company has not  generated any revenue
since its inception.

ADVERTISING

The  Company  will  expense its  advertising  when  incurred.  There has been no
advertising since inception.

NOTE 3. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUCEMENTS

The Company has evaluated all the recent accounting  pronouncements  through the
date the  financial  statements  were issued and filed with the  Securities  and
Exchange Commission and believe that none of them will have a material effect on
the Company's financial statements.

NOTE 4. GOING CONCERN

The  accompanying  financial  statements are presented on a going concern basis.
The Company had no  operations  during the period from November 5, 2007 (date of
inception)  to November  30, 2013 and  generated  a net loss of  $135,738.  This
condition raises  substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern. The Company is currently in the development stage and has minimal
expenses,  however,  management believes that the company's current cash of $131
is  insufficient  to cover the  expenses  they will incur during the next twelve
months.

NOTE 5. WARRANTS AND OPTIONS

There are no warrants or options outstanding to acquire any additional shares of
common.

NOTE 6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company neither owns nor leases any real or personal property.  Between June
1, 2009 and August 31, 2009 and the month of  September  2012 the Company paid a
director $300 per month for use of office space and services.  Between September
1, 2009 and August 31, 2012 and August 1, 2013 and November 30, 2013 the Company
paid a director $500 per month for use of office space and services.

As of November 30,  2013,  there is a loan  payable due to Mark  Holcombe,  sole
officer and director of the Company,  for $49,483 that is  non-interest  bearing
with no specific repayment terms.

The sole officer and director of the Company may, in the future, become involved
in other business opportunities as they become available, he may face a conflict
in  selecting  between  the Company and his other  business  opportunities.  The
Company has not formulated a policy for the resolution of such conflicts.

NOTE 7. INCOME TAXES

                                                      As of November 30, 2013

                                                              =========

Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon  sufficient  future taxable
income during the period that deductible temporary differences and carryforwards
are expected to be available to reduce  taxable  income.  As the  achievement of
required  future taxable income is uncertain,  the Company  recorded a valuation
allowance.

NOTE 8. NET OPERATING LOSSES

As of November 30, 2013,  the Company has a net operating loss  carryforward  of
approximately  $135,738.  Net operating loss carryforwards  expires twenty years
from the date the loss was incurred.

                           TRIDENT BRANDS INCORPORATED
                        (f/k/a SANDFIELD VENTURES CORP.)
                          (A Development Stage Company)
                          Notes to Financial Statements
                                  May 31, 2014
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The  accompanying  unaudited  interim  financial  statements  of Trident  Brands
Incorporated  have  been  prepared  in  accordance  with  accounting  principles
generally  accepted  in the  United  States  of  America  and the  rules  of the
Securities and Exchange  Commission,  and should be read in conjunction with the
audited financial  statements and notes thereto contained in Trident's Form 10-K
filed with SEC. In the opinion of  management,  all  adjustments,  consisting of
normal  recurring  adjustments,  necessary for a fair  presentation of financial
position and the results of operations  for the interim  periods  presented have
been reflected  herein.  The results of operations  for interim  periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to
the financial  statements  which would  substantially  duplicate the  disclosure
contained in the audited financial statements for fiscal 2013 as reported in the
Form 10-K have been omitted.

NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN

As of May 31,  2014,  Trident has not  generated  revenues  and has  accumulated
losses  since  inception.  The  continuation  of Trident  as a going  concern is
dependent  upon the  continued  financial  support  from its  shareholders,  its
ability to obtain  necessary equity  financing to continue  operations,  and the
attainment of profitable  operations.  These  factors  raise  substantial  doubt
regarding Trident's ability to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3. LOAN PAYABLE - RELATED PARTY

As of May 31, 2014,  there is a loan payable due to Mark Holcombe,  sole officer
and director of the Company,  for $56,776 that is  non-interest  bearing with no
specific repayment terms.

NOTE 4. LOAN PAYABLE - THIRD PARTY

On May 1,  2014,  Trident  obtained  a short  term  loan of  $200,000  from Rene
Arseneault.  The loan bears  interest at the rate of 8.0% per annum,  payable on
maturity,  calculated on the principle  amount of the loan  outstanding.  Unless
paid earlier,  the loan and accrued and unpaid interest shall be payable in full
on  April  30,  2015.  As of May  31,  2014,  the  full  amount  of the  loan is
outstanding and the accrued interest expense is $1,333.

NOTE 5. WARRANTS AND OPTIONS

On May 5, 2014,  Trident  granted an  aggregate of  2,875,000  stock  options to
directors,  officers,  employees  and  consultants  of the  Company  pursuant to
Trident's 2013 Stock Plan. The stock options are exercisable for five years from
the date of grant at  exercise  prices of $0.75 per share for shares  vesting 12
months from the date of issuance,  $1.00 per share for shares  vesting 24 months
from the date of issuance  and $1.50 for shares  vesting 36 months from the date
of issuance.  Of the 2,875,000 stock options granted,  Trident granted 1,125,000
stock options to its president,  Michael Brown; 300,000 stock options to each of
its  directors,  Donald  MacPhee,  Scott Chapman,  Mark Holcombe;  150,000 stock
options to its controller, Peter Salvo; and 350,000 stock options to each of its
special advisors, Robert Campbell and Karen Arsenault.
