PART I

The following contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth in “Management’s 2015 Plan of Operations” as well as those discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-K. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
 
ITEM 1.
BUSINESS.
 
General
 
We are a Texas corporation formed in 1984 that is engaged in developing biologics for the treatment of human and animal diseases. Our current focus is research aimed at the treatment of human disease indications, particularly influenza, hepatitis C, thrombocytopenia, and other indications using natural human interferon alpha that is administered in a proprietary low dose oral form.

We currently own or license four issued patents related to the low-dose oral delivery of interferon and we own one issued patent on our dietary supplement, Maxisal®.  We currently have one pending patent which applies low dose oral interferon to the treatment of Thrombocytopenia.  In our history, we have completed more than 100 pre-clinical (animal) and human studies on the safety and efficacy of low-dose orally administered interferon.  On October 31, 2013, Amarillo Biosciences, Inc., (ABI) filed a voluntary petition in the Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas, for protection under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the U.S. code.  The purpose of the filing was to give the Company time to restructure organizationally and financially.

In addition to the core technology discussed in the first paragraph of this section, ABI is exploring the possibility of instituting new revenue streams along with the core technology thus expanding the Company’s current focus into a diversified business portfolio.

Current Status
 
As of December 31, 2014, ABI remained in Chapter 11 Bankruptcy.  The Company’s Disclosure Statement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court on March 28, 2014, the Plan of Reorganization was confirmed on May 23, 2014, and implemented on the Effective Date, November 20, 2014.  The Company has consummated the Plan and has completed the following actions reducing the Company’s debt from $4,787,127 to $452,277:  Administrative debts have been paid and are now current, the unsecured debt to The Yang Group has been exchanged for common equity in ABI, general unsecured

and administrative convenience creditors have been paid according to the Plan, the Company’s preferred stock has been converted to common stock, and the 1-for-19 reverse stock split has been successfully implemented.  Subsequently, on January 23, 2015, the Final Decree was signed by Robert L. Jones, Bankruptcy Judge for the Northern District of Texas and the Case was administratively closed on February 13, 2015.

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 852, Reorganizations, the Company adopted fresh start accounting upon emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The recorded amounts of assets and liabilities were adjusted to reflect their estimated fair values on the Effective Date.

Upon the adoption of fresh start accounting, the Company became a new entity for financial reporting purposes. References to “Successor” or “Successor Company” relate to the financial position of the reorganized Company as of and subsequent to November 20, 2014 and results of operations for the period ended December 31, 2014. References to “Predecessor” or “Predecessor Company” refer to the financial position of the Company prior to November 20, 2014 and the results of operations through November 20, 2014. As a result of the application of fresh start accounting and the effects of the implementation of the Plan of Reorganization, the financial statements on or after November 20, 2014 are not comparable with the financial statements prior to that date.

Core Technology
 
Injectable interferon is FDA-approved to treat some neoplastic, viral and autoimmune diseases.  Many patients experience moderate to severe side effects, causing them to discontinue injectable interferon therapy. Our core technology is a natural human interferon alpha that is delivered into the oral cavity as a lozenge in low (nanogram) doses. The lozenge dissolves in the mouth where interferon binds to surface (mucosal) cells in the mouth and throat, resulting in stimulation of immune mechanisms.  Orally delivered interferon has been shown to activate hundreds of immune system genes in the peripheral blood.  Human studies have shown that oral interferon is safe and effective against viral and autoimmune diseases. Oral interferon is given in concentrations 10,000 times less than that usually given by injection. The Company’s low dose formulation results in almost no side effects, in contrast to high dose injectable interferon, which causes adverse effects in at least 50% of recipients.

The Company also has a dietary supplement product, Maxisal® that is useful in the symptomatic relief of dry mouth.

Governmental or FDA approval is required for low dose oral interferon.  Our progress toward approval is discussed under each specific indication, below.

We believe that our technology is sound and can be commercialized.  Due to occurrences in the interferon market over the past several years, we have been unsuccessful at such commercialization.

Interferon Supply
 
Hayashibara Biochemical Laboratories, Inc. (“HBL”) ceased to produce natural human interferon in December of 2012.  Historically, the research and development was conducted by ABI using this unique form of natural human interferon supplied by HBL.  Their departure from the Interferon market left ABI without a current source of interferon with which to conduct clinical trials and ultimately commercialize a product.  Additionally, this interferon no longer provides a competitive edge insomuch as the industry as a whole is rapidly moving toward the use of recombinant interferon rather than natural human interferon.  The Company is exploring its options and is talking with alternate suppliers of interferon.

ABI’s thirty years of data has been generated from the numerous studies performed using natural human interferon.  Since human interferon is virtually impossible to obtain, those studies will have to be repeated using recombinant interferon.  Repeating the studies will be both costly and time consuming.  While the pharmaceutical industry is creating and marketing new and effective anti-viral medications, ABI believes that there is still sufficient time to develop and commercialize low dose interferon for treatment of such diseases as Influenza, Chronic Cough in COPD, Hepatitis B, C, and D, and Thrombocytopenia caused by other diseases and as a side effect of treatment of other diseases.

Strategic Alliance with CytoPharm
 
On May 15, 2013, the Company entered into a CIT Patents Agreement with CytoPharm, Inc. (CP) a former licensee for oral IFN technology in Taiwan and China. This agreement establishes the ownership, inventorship, prosecution, maintenance, use and commercialization of a patent regarding treatment of thrombocytopenia with oral IFN that developed out of a study conducted by CP under a previous License and Supply Agreement.

Strategic Alliance with Intas Pharmaceuticals
 
On January 7, 2010, the Company entered into a License and Supply Agreement with Intas Pharmaceuticals Ltd., an India-based pharmaceutical company with three decades of experience in the healthcare industry and a global presence in 42 countries worldwide. Given the problems associated with the natural human interferon supply, it is likely that the agreement with Intas will be terminated as the Company can no longer supply them with natural human IFN produced by Hayashibara.

Patents and Proprietary Rights
 
Since inception, the Company has worked to build an extensive patent portfolio for low-dose orally administered interferon. This portfolio consists of patents with claims that encompass method of use or treatment, and/or composition of matter and manufacturing. As listed below, we presently own or license six issued patents, including one patent on our dietary supplement.  Additionally, ABI has one patent pending as shown below.

There are no current patent litigation proceedings involving us.

Cost of Compliance with Environmental Regulations
 
We incurred no costs to comply with environment regulations in 2014.

Competition
 
The pharmaceutical industry is an expanding and rapidly changing industry characterized by intense competition. We believe that our ability to compete will be dependent in large part upon our ability to successfully operate the newly reorganized business, bring in new business lines, continue recapitalization, redevelop and test our products and continually enhance and improve our products and leverage our core technologies. In order to do so, we must effectively utilize and expand our research and development capabilities and, once developed, expeditiously convert new technology into products and processes, which can be commercialized. Competition is based primarily on scientific and technological superiority, technical support, availability of patent protection, access to adequate capital, the ability to develop, acquire and market products and processes successfully, the ability to obtain governmental approvals and the ability to serve the particular needs of commercial customers.  Corporations and institutions with greater resources than us, therefore, have a significant competitive advantage. Our potential competitors include entities that develop and produce therapeutic agents for treatment of human and animal disease. These include numerous public and private academic and research organizations and pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies pursuing production of, among other things, biologics from cell cultures, genetically engineered drugs and natural and chemically synthesized drugs. Almost all of these potential competitors have substantially greater capital resources, research and development capabilities, manufacturing and marketing resources and experience than us. Our competitors may succeed in developing products or processes that are more effective or less costly than any that may be developed by us or that gain regulatory approval prior to our products.  We also expect that the number of competitors and potential competitors will increase as more interferon alpha products receive commercial marketing approvals from the FDA or analogous foreign regulatory agencies. Any of these competitors may be more successful than us in manufacturing, marketing and distributing its products. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully.

United States Regulation
 
Before products with health claims can be marketed in the United States, they must receive approval from the FDA. To receive this approval, any drug must undergo rigorous preclinical testing and clinical trials that demonstrate the product candidate’s safety and effectiveness for each indicated use. This extensive regulatory process controls, among other things, the development, testing, manufacture, safety, efficacy, record keeping, labeling, storage, approval, advertising, promotion, sale, and distribution of pharmaceutical products.

In general, before any ethical pharmaceutical product can be marketed in the United States, the FDA will require the following process:

preclinical laboratory and animal tests;
submission of an investigational new drug application, or IND, which must become effective before human clinical trials may begin;
adequate and well-controlled human clinical trials to establish the safety and efficacy of the proposed drug for its intended use;
pre-approval inspection of manufacturing facilities and selected clinical investigators;

 
5

 


Submission of a New Drug Application (NDA) to the FDA; and
FDA approval of an NDA, or of an NDA supplement (for subsequent indications or other modifications, including a change in location of the manufacturing facility).

Substantial financial resources are necessary to fund the research, clinical trials, and related activities necessary to satisfy FDA requirements or similar requirements of state, local, and foreign regulatory agencies. At such time as ABI undertakes to commercialize any of its products, all necessary preclinical testing, clinical trials, data review, and approval steps will be judiciously executed to insure that the product satisfies all regulatory requirements at all levels.

505(b)(2)
 
ABI has historically followed and will continue to follow the traditional approval process for New Drugs as set out in Section 505(b)(1) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. If an alternative path to FDA approval for new or improved formulations of previously approved products is scientifically and economically feasible and beneficial to the Company and the public, ABI may choose to follow this alternative path as established by section 505(b)(2) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. This section of the Act permits the applicant to rely on certain preclinical or clinical studies conducted for an approved product as some of the information required for approval and for which the applicant has not obtained a right of reference.  The process of approval under 505(b)(2) will be followed as judiciously as 505(b)(1) or any regulation.

Orphan Drug Designation
 
Under the Orphan Drug Act, the FDA may grant orphan drug designation to drugs intended to treat a rare disease or condition, which is generally a disease or condition that affects fewer than 200,000 individuals in the United States. ABI may choose to seek approval for a product satisfying the definition of and Orphan Drug if that product can be used to treat such an indication.  Orphan drug designation does not convey any advantage in or shorten the duration or rigidity of the regulatory review and approval process.

Foreign Regulation
 
In addition to regulations in the United States, a variety of foreign regulations govern clinical trials and commercial sales and distribution of products in foreign countries. Whether or not the Company obtains FDA approval for a product, the Company must obtain approval of a product by the comparable regulatory authorities of foreign countries before the Company can commence clinical trials or market the product in those countries. The approval process varies from country to country, and the time may be longer or shorter than that required for FDA approval. The requirements governing the conduct of clinical trials, product licensing, pricing and reimbursement vary greatly from country to country.

The policies of the FDA and foreign regulatory authorities may change and additional government regulations may be enacted which could prevent or delay regulatory approval of investigational drugs or approval of new diseases for existing products and could also increase the cost of regulatory compliance. It is not possible to predict the likelihood, nature or extent of adverse governmental regulation that might arise from future legislative or administrative action, either in the United States or abroad.

Research and Development
 
During the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company incurred research and development expenses of $15,270 and $132,962, respectively. An integral part of the reorganization process has been to refocus and realign research and development activities.  If a satisfactory replacement source of

interferon is located and will serve the goals of the Company, adequate funds to conduct research and development will be allocated.  These research activities include revitalization of the Company’s core technology.  Additionally, any number of other attractive technologies might be investigated.

Employees
 
The Company has 3 full-time employees. Of these employees, 2 are executive officers and 1 works in administrative and research and development capacities. Consultants in business and research development are also engaged as needed.

ITEM 2.                      DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY.

Our executive and administrative offices are located at 4134 Business Park Drive, Amarillo, Texas in a 1,800 square-foot facility rented by us. The lease expires on June 30, 2015 and our monthly rent is $1,045 per month. We believe that the facilities are well maintained and generally suitable and adequate for our current and projected operating needs.

ITEM 3.                      LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

Amarillo Biosciences, Inc., successfully exited Chapter 11 Bankruptcy on January 23, 2015, when the Final Decree was signed by Robert L. Jones, Bankruptcy Judge for the Northern District of Texas. The Case was administratively closed on February 13, 2015.

There are no other legal proceedings involving the Company.

We have not paid any dividends to our common stock shareholders to date, and have no plans to do so in the immediate future.

We use the services of American Stock Transfer and Trust Company as our transfer agent.

Preferred Stock
 
The shareholders have authorized 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock shares for issuance.

The board of directors authorized the issuance of up to 10,000 shares of Series 2010-A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock on July 29, 2010.  Each preferred share is convertible into 1,000 common shares ($100 stated value per share divided by $0.10).  Dividends are payable quarterly at 10% per annum in cash or stock at the option of the preferred stock holder.  Stock dividend payments are valued at the higher of $0.10 per share of common stock or the average of the two highest volume weighted average closing prices for the 5 consecutive trading days ending on the trading day that is immediately prior to the dividend payment date.

Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, on November 20, 2014, 3,262 shares of Preferred Equity were converted to 171,684 shares of Common Equity according to the above terms.  The converted shares were cancelled and terminated and returned to the status of authorized, but unissued.

There was no Series 2010-A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock issued in 2013.

The Company accrued $28,881 of dividends on preferred stock during 2014.

Stock Options and Warrants
 
During 2014, no options or warrants were issued to consultants, advisors, directors, employees, or investors. Consequently, there were no related expenses.

Directors, officers and consultants did not exercise any options in 2014 or 2013, see table below.


 
1  3,262 shares of preferred stock were converted to 3,262,000 shares of common stock at $0.10 per share where 1 share of preferred stock was exchanged for 1,000 of common stock.  When the 1-for-19 reverse split was implemented, the 3,262,000 common shares were reduced by a factor of 19.
 
2  The Plan of Reorganization called for exchanging debt owed to The Yang Group for ABI common stock on November 20, 2014.  16,115,848 shares of ABI common stock were exchanged for the debt.  The stock price was $0.12 per share.

From July 22, 2010 through February 8, 2012, Paul Tibbits had received a total of 3,262 shares of the Company’s Series 2010-A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock in exchange for repayments of promissory notes, payment of interest on notes payable, dividends on the Preferred Stock, and interest on unpaid dividends on the Preferred Stock.  As of the filing date of the Chapter 11 Petition, October 31, 2013, Mr. Tibbits was owed $65,909 for accrued unpaid dividends and accrued interest on the unpaid dividends.  The debt was discharged when ABI paid $3,471 and $484 in unpaid dividends and interest on unpaid dividends, respectively, in full and final settlement of the Class Four – General Unsecured Debt.  Pursuant to the Rules of Bankruptcy, insomuch as the amounts owed to Mr. Tibbits were under-secured (there was no collateral securing this debt), no interest on unpaid dividends accrued from the filing date through the Effective Date of the Plan, November 20, 2014.  Dividends, however, continued to accrue through November 20, 2014 as permitted by the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and Rules of Bankruptcy. At December 31, 2014, $34,279 of unpaid dividends have been accrued.

The Yang Group has provided working capital loans in the total amount of $2,324,185 to ABI in fiscal years 2012, 2013, and 2014.  A significant amount of the cash provided was transferred to the Company through Dr. Stephen Chen, ABI CEO.  Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, The Yang Group received 16,115,848 shares of ABI Common Equity in exchange for discharge of the Class Two – Allowed Unsecured of (The) Yang (Group) as of the Effective Date of the Plan, November 20, 2014.

On the Effective Date, the Class Three Secured Claim of Yang will be deemed allowed in the amount of $150,000, secured by the same assets that secured Yang’s prepetition secured claim (See Texas Financing Statement No. 13-0029795076). This claim will bear interest at the Applicable Federal Rate, and be fully amortized and paid as follows: five (5) consecutive equal annual installments of combined principal and interest, beginning September 1, 2014, and continuing on the same date of each succeeding year until September 1, 2018, when the obligation is due and payable in full.

Non-Related Party

We had a line of credit with Wells Fargo for $20,000, with an interest rate of prime rate plus 6.75 percent.  There was an outstanding balance of $18,376 on October 31, 2013, when the Chapter 11 Petition was filed.  The debt was discharged when ABI paid $1,111 in full and final settlement of the Class Four– General Unsecured Debt.

ITEM 7.
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION:

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes thereto which appear elsewhere in this report.  The results shown herein are not necessarily indicative of

the results to be expected in any future periods.  This discussion contains forward-looking statements based on current expectations, which involve uncertainties.  Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from the forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors.  Readers should also carefully review factors set forth in other reports or documents that we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Overview. ABI has been (and is) engaged in the business of biopharmaceutical research and development. Its primary focus historically has been the development of low-dose, orally administered interferon. ABI holds or licenses various patents; it also is the developer of Maxisal®, a dietary supplement to treat dry-mouth symptoms.

Having reorganized and exited bankruptcy, the Company’s goal is to expand the reach of its research, development, and marketing of biopharmaceutical, biotechnical, health and life science related products.  ABI will continue to leverage its core technology going forward by using its thirty years of scientific and clinical data to establish interferon-alpha lozenges as a therapeutic agent for conditions such as influenza, hepatitis C, and various causes of thrombocytopenia just to name a few.  The Company is committed to expanding its business operations from the currently narrow focus to encompass a wide variety of licensing, partnerships, and development opportunities in the aforementioned sectors. This commitment extends not only to the U.S., but to Taiwan, China, and other Asian Countries.

Company Management and Employees. On December 31, 2014, ABI had three employees. Presently, ABI has three employees and four directors. The employees include the following persons:
 
 
Stephen T. Chen:
Dr. Chen was named Chairman of the Board in February 2012, and he has been a director of the Company since February 1996. He currently executes the management functions as not only Chairman, but Chief Executive Officer (CEO), President, and Chief Operating Officer. He has been President and Chief Executive Officer of STC International, Inc., a health care investment firm, since May 1992. Dr. Chen has over thirty years of international business experience, including an extensive background in pharmaceutical product acquisition and licensing, development of joint venture agreements, execution of business strategy, and leadership of start-up companies in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and nutraceutical industries. Dr. Chen has held executive positions in R&D and business development at several major pharmaceutical companies, including Borroughs Wellcome (presently GlaxoSmithKline), Miles Pharmaceuticals (presently Bayer), ICI America (presently AstraZeneca), and Ciba-Geigy (presently Novartis). He received a Ph.D. in Industrial & Physical Pharmacy from Purdue University in 1977.
 
 
Bernard Cohen:
Chief Financial Officer (CFO). Mr. Cohen holds BBA and MPA degrees from West Texas A&M University. He is a long time Amarillo resident with over thirty years of management experience. Mr. Cohen has been with ABI since October 2009. Mr. Cohen works with Ms. Shelton and provides reporting necessary for ABI’s various SEC filings, and he also provides ordinary-course internal bookkeeping and accounting services.
 
 
Chrystal Shelton:
Office manager and administrative support. Ms. Shelton has been with ABI since 1987. In addition to handling routine office administration, Ms. Shelton is familiar with the form and format of SEC filings and interacts with outside professionals who assist ABI in its various compliance measures.  She is an integral part of the reporting process.
 

 
11

 

Directors.  The board of directors of ABI consists of the following persons: Stephen T. Chen, Ph.D., Paul Tibbits, Marian Tibbits, and Yasushi Chikagami.

Bankruptcy.  On October 31, 2013, ABI filed for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. As of December 31, 2014, ABI remained in Chapter 11 Bankruptcy.  The Company has consummated the Plan and has completed the following actions reducing the Company’s debt from $4,787,127 to $452,277:  Administrative debts have been paid and are now current, the unsecured debt to The Yang Group has been exchanged for common equity in ABI, general unsecured and administrative convenience creditors have been paid according to the Plan, the Company’s preferred stock has been converted to common stock, and the 1-for-19 reverse stock split has been successfully implemented.  Subsequently, on January 23, 2015, the Final Decree was signed by Robert L. Jones, Bankruptcy Judge for the Northern District of Texas and the Case was administratively closed on February 13, 2015.

Assets, Liquidity, and Capital.  ABI holds various patents and related intellectual property, which are described earlier in this document. Most, if not all, of ABI’s assets secure Yang’s collateralized debt pursuant to Loan Documents.3

At December 31, 2014, we had available cash of $318,556 whereas we had a cash position of $6,539 as of December 31, 2013. The Company had a working capital deficit of $4,875,826 at the end of fiscal year 2013.  For 2014, the working capital was $33,161.  Historically the burn rate was between $50,000 and $60,000 per month.  It is difficult to estimate the burn rate at this point insomuch as the new budgets are still being developed.  One of the Company’s main goals is to return to the status of a going concern by having reduced operating losses and subsequently becoming profitable.  As indicated throughout this document,  Two other major goals of ABI are to (1) leverage the core technology, low-dose oral interferon, and (2) diversify Company operations to incorporate additional lines of business which will extend the reach of ABI into additional economic sectors such as biotech / bio-pharmaceutical / health care products and life sciences business.  The Yang Group has indicated the willingness to assist in future financing of operations as ABI seeks to monetize its existing (and potentially newly developed) intellectual property. ABI estimates its post-reorganization financing needs to be between $1,000,000 and $1,600,000.

The Yang Group Controls The Reorganized Company.  In return for forgiveness of the Allowed Unsecured Claim of Yang and other Cash Consideration, Yang received newly issued stock and effectively owns eighty percent (80%) of the ownership interest of ABI, post-reorganization. The existing Common Equity Security Holders underwent a reverse stock split on the basis of one (1) (New) ABI common share received for every nineteen (19) (Old) ABI common shares held pre-split, as of a record date which was set by the Directors of ABI pursuant to Section 6.101(b) of the Texas Business Organizations Code. The Code indicated that the date shall be no more than 60 days prior to the implementation of the reverse stock split. The (New) ABI common shares received pursuant to the reverse split were not in addition to, but replaced, the (Old) ABI common shares held pre-split, and such (Old) ABI common shares were returned to the status of authorized, but unissued common shares, with the result that the Common Equity Security Holders now held, post-reorganization, common stock constituting approximately twenty percent (20%) of the issued and outstanding common stock in the reorganized company.  ABI will continue to compete in the biotech / bio-pharmaceutical / health care products and life sciences business.


 
3 ABI also owns office furniture and equipment, which has been fully depreciated and has little resale value

 
12

 


It is anticipated that Dr. Chen and the present management team will continue to operate ABI.  This does not, however, preclude Yang from exercising its voting rights as a stockholder in ABI.

Pending Litigation
 
To the best of management’s knowledge, the Company does not believe that there is any pending litigation against ABI.

Risk Factors
 
The most significant asset is the Debtor’s intellectual property consisting of six patents, one pending patent, and one trademark. Two of the patents expire in less than ten months and three of the patents expire in a range of four to seven years. These five patents and the single pending patent employ the Company’s core technology, which is the oral, low dosage use of (human) interferon. These patents will not have significant value unless commercialized, which will require adequate funding, time, effort, and expertise in biologics.  As stated earlier, ABI’s sole source of human interferon discontinued production, which negatively impacted ABI’s ability to obtain source product. The anticipated location and development time required for a new source of human interferon along with the requisite testing and FDA approval time could exceed the life span of the all of the patents, and even if it does not, would leave relatively little time to derive revenues from the patent protections, prior to patent expiration. The sixth patent, a product promoting oral health, also is the victim of supply-chain interruption because the supplier of the raw material for the product (anhydrous crystalline maltose, or “ACM”) has substantially increased its purchase price. The price increase and other actions have rendered the manufacture and sale of the product less attractive.

ABI will operate subject to the oversight by its 80% owner, Yang. Yang has recognized the necessity of additional capital infusion to return ABI to profitable operations post-reorganization. This will likely include the advance of debt financing or infusion of additional capital by Yang, although Yang is not obligated to do so, and will consider economic and market factors before making such determination. It is anticipated that ABI will attempt to monetize and commercialize its existing intellectual property, which would necessitate identification and acquisition of new source product (e.g., Interferon), conducting new trials, and additional protection of intellectual property. It is estimated this may require additional funding (including general administrative cost and professional fees) of between $500,000 and $800,000. Similarly, New ABI may explore with Yang the acquisition and development of new product lines to which Yang may have access. The cost to commercialize any such development could likely require a similar funding level, resulting in aggregate funding requirements between $1 million and $1.6 million. These activities, even if undertaken, would not be expected to produce meaningful revenue before the last calendar quarter of 2015, or possibly later.4
 
Tax Consequences
 
ABI’s most recent tax return and financial statements reflect tax attributes that may or may not be obtainable. Some of these tax attributes (e.g., net operating loss carry forwards (“NOL”), if any) are for the benefit of ABI. According to the Company’s most recent federal income tax return, the face amount of the NOL was $22,240,816. ABI has not independently verified or otherwise confirmed the favorable nature of such tax attributes or the extent to which any of the NOL can still be used. It is the Company’s belief that obtaining the value of such tax attributes may be difficult and directly dependent upon many factors outside of our control, including, but not limited to, changes in the legal and regulatory framework and the operational and corporate structure of ABI and shareholders, or sales or transfers

of stock by or among shareholders. For example, if ABI has experienced a change of control as defined in the relevant provisions of the IRC,1 the use of any existing tax attributes could be severely limited. ABI does not believe the reorganization has or will impair any tax attributes; however, obtaining value from the tax attributes is a function of the Company’s return to profitable operations and the timeframe of that return. While we believes it is possible, there is no assurance that ABI will return to profitability in the future.2

Comparison of results for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.

In addition to the presentation in the financial statements of our results of operations and cash flows for the period ended December 31, 2014 and the period ended November 20, 2014, management believes it is useful to present certain combined results for the full year 2014 as supplementary information below. In such cases, the combined results for 2014 provide for a more useful, normalized comparison to the results of the Predecessor Company for 2013. Combined 2014 results for the statements of cash flows and for the elements of the statements of operations that are not categorized by segment are considered non-GAAP. When evaluating results of operations below gross profit, management views the year ended December 31, 2014 as a single, whole measurement period instead of a pair of distinct periods which must be divided and reported separately according to GAAP. Consequently, the Company is presenting the operating results of the Predecessor and Successor on a combined basis for the year ended December 31, 2014. This combined presentation is a non-GAAP summation of the Predecessor’s pre-reorganization results of operations for the period from January 1, 2014 through November 20, 2014 and the Successor’s results of operations for the period from November 21, 2014 through December 31, 2014. Management believes that the combined presentation provides additional information that enables meaningful comparison of the Company’s financial performance during uniform periods. The non-GAAP combined results for 2014 are presented in addition to the GAAP results for the period ended December 31, 2014 and the period ended November 20, 2014.

Revenues.  During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, revenues were $nil.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.  Costs were up in 2014.  Selling, General and Administrative expenses increased from $433,193 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 to $565,976 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, an increase of $132,783 or approximately 31%. Increases in the following expense accounts were the main constituents of the increase in Selling, General, and Administrative expenses: D&O Liability Insurance, $28,101, Reorganization Expense related to the bankruptcy filing, $108,117, plus no R&D reclassification for certain administrative costs for the last three quarters of 2014.

Research and Development Expenses.  Research and Development expenses of $15,270 were incurred for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $132,962 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, a decrease of $117,692 or approximately 89%. The decrease was mostly due to no R&D for the last three quarters of 2014.


 
1 See 26 U.S.C. § 382 (known as Section 382 of the IRC) and related regulations.
 
2 As noted above, the extent to which these NOL may be used by the Debtor or New ABI to offset future income may be affected by the passage of time, transactions among shareholders, and other factors. The Debtor has sought to limit certain trading activities by separate motion. See e.g., Debtor’s Motion for Immediate Entry of Order Establishing Procedures for Certain Transfers of Debtor’s Common Stock (Doc. No. 94) and the Interim Order Establishing Procedures for Certain Transfers of Debtor’s Common Stock (Doc. No. 96). Under the Plan, similar limitations may be imposed post-confirmation.

Other Income and Expenses.  During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, debt forgiveness income was $3,422,850 as compared to $42,702 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, an increase of $3,380,148 or (7916%).  This increase is mainly attributed to completion of the bankruptcy and debt write-offs.

Net Income (Loss).  Net income for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 was $2,839,715 compared to net loss of $622,602 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, a difference of $3,462,317 or approximately 556%.  Net income applicable to common shareholders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 was $2,810,834 compared to a net loss applicable to common shareholders of $654,992 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, a change of $3,465,826 (529%).  Net income/loss applicable to common shareholders includes stock dividends for preferred stock shareholders, $32,390 in 2013 compared to $28,881 in 2014, a decrease of $3,509 (11%). The preferred stock was converted to common stock on November 20, 2014.

ITEM 9A.                      CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

As of December 31, 2014, the disclosure controls and procedures in place have been evaluated and are sufficient to ensure the accurate and full disclosure of financial matters.

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over the financial reporting of the Company.  The Company uses the following framework to evaluate the effectiveness of the internal controls over financial reporting:

We maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information, which is required to be timely disclosed, is accumulated and communicated to management in a timely fashion.

In the ordinary course of business, we review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our systems and processes to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems and automating manual processes.

 
15

 
An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures was performed as of the end of the period covered by this report. This evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SECs  rules and forms.

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014.  In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.  Based on such assessment and those criteria, management believes that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014.  The Company’s accounting firm has not issued an attestation report on the management’s assessment of the Company’s internal controls.  There were no changes made to the internal controls in 2014.  See Exhibit 33.1 for managements report on internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 13.                      CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.

Historically, ABI has relied upon certain relationships which gave rise to related transactions.  These relationships have helped ABI with financing, ingredients to potential products, research, and technology.  All future transactions and loans between the Company and its officers, directors and 5% shareholders will be on terms no less favorable to the Company than could be obtained from independent third parties. There can be no assurance, however, that future transactions or arrangements between the Company and its affiliates will be advantageous, that conflicts of interest will not arise with respect thereto or that if conflicts do arise, that they will be resolved in favor of the Company.

Currently there are no such arrangements that have not already been disclosed in this document.

ITEM 14.                      PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors of
Amarillo Biosciences, Inc.
Amarillo, TX

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Amarillo Biosciences, Inc. (Successor) (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2014, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the period ended December 31, 2014. Amarillo Biosciences, Inc.’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Amarillo Biosciences, Inc. (Successor) as of December 31, 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period ended December 31, 2014, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas confirmed the Company’s Plan of Reorganization on May 23, 2014. Confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization resulted in the discharge of all claims against the Company that arose before October 31, 2013 and substantially alters rights and interests of equity security holders as provided for in the Plan of Reorganization. The Plan of Reorganization was substantially consummated on November 20, 2014 and the Company emerged from bankruptcy. In connection with its emergence from bankruptcy, the Company adopted fresh start accounting as of November 20, 2014. The Company’s absence of significant revenues, recurring losses from operations, its need for additional financing in order to fund its projected loss in 2014 raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The 2014 financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors of
Amarillo Biosciences, Inc.
Amarillo, TX

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Amarillo Biosciences, Inc. (Predecessor) (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2013, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' deficit, and cash flows for the period ended November 20, 2014 and for the year ended December 31, 2013. Amarillo Biosciences, Inc.’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Amarillo Biosciences, Inc. (Predecessor) as of December 31, 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period ended November 20, 2014 and for the year ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company filed a petition on October 31, 2013 with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas for reorganizing under the provisions of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. The Company’s Plan of Reorganization was substantially consummated on November 20, 2014 and the Company emerged from bankruptcy. In connection with its emergence from bankruptcy, the Company adopted fresh start accounting. The Company’s absence of significant revenues, recurring losses from operations, its need for additional financing in order to fund its projected loss in 2014 raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The 2014 financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Amarillo Biosciences, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2014 and 2013

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization and Business

Amarillo Biosciences, Inc. (the "Company” or “AMARQ” or “Amarillo” or “ABI”), a Texas corporation formed in 1984, is engaged in developing biologics for the treatment of human and animal diseases.  The Company’s current focus is research aimed at the treatment of human disease indications, particularly influenza, hepatitis C, thrombocytopenia, and other indications using natural human interferon alpha that is administered in a proprietary low dose oral form.  In addition to the above core technology ABI is exploring the possibility of instituting new revenue streams along with the core technology thus expanding the Company’s current focus into a diversified business portfolio.

Going Concern

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet achieved operating income, and its operations are funded primarily from debt and equity financings. The Company successfully reorganized under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.  As part of the Plan of Reorganization, debt in excess of $4 million was discharged.  However, losses are anticipated in the ongoing development of its business and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve or maintain profitability.

The continuing operations of the Company and the recoverability of the carrying value of assets is dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to fund its working capital requirements, and upon future profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relative to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

There can be no assurance that capital will be available as necessary to meet the Company's working capital requirements or, if the capital is available, that it will be on terms acceptable to the Company. The issuances of additional equity securities by the Company may result in dilution in the equity interests of its current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase the Company's liabilities and future cash commitments. If the Company is unable to obtain financing in the amounts and on terms deemed acceptable, the business and future success may be adversely affected and the Company may cease operations. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.

Current Status

As of December 31, 2014, ABI remained in Chapter 11 Bankruptcy.  The Company’s Disclosure Statement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court on March 28, 2014, the Plan of Reorganization was confirmed on May 23, 2014, and implemented on the Effective Date, November 20, 2014.  The Company has consummated the Plan and has completed the following actions:  Administrative debts have been paid and are now current, the unsecured debt to The Yang Group has been exchanged for common equity in ABI, general unsecured and administrative convenience creditors have been paid

 
 
F-7

 


according to the Plan, the Company’s preferred stock has been converted to common stock, and the 1-for-19 reverse stock split has been successfully implemented.  These actions have resulted in the reduction of debt from $4,787,127, to $452,277.  Subsequently, on January 23, 2015, the Final Decree was signed by Robert L. Jones, Bankruptcy Judge for the Northern District of Texas and the Case was administratively closed on February 13, 2015.

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 852, Reorganizations, the Company adopted fresh start accounting upon emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The recorded amounts of assets and liabilities were adjusted to reflect their estimated fair values on the Effective Date.

Upon the adoption of fresh start accounting, the Company became a new entity for financial reporting purposes. References to “Successor” or “Successor Company” relate to the financial position of the reorganized Company as of and subsequent to November 20, 2014 and results of operations for the period ended December 31, 2014. References to “Predecessor” or “Predecessor Company” refer to the financial position of the Company prior to November 20, 2014 and the results of operations through November 20, 2014. As a result of the application of fresh start accounting and the effects of the implementation of the Plan of Reorganization, the financial statements on or after November 20, 2014 are not comparable with the financial statements prior to that date.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Under the Financial Account Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”), we are permitted to elect to measure financial instruments and certain other items at fair value, with the change in fair value recorded in earnings. We elected not to measure any eligible items using the fair value option. Consistent with Fair Value Measurement Topic of the FASB ASC, we implemented guidelines relating to the disclosure of our methodology for periodic measurement of our assets and liabilities recorded at fair market value.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-tier fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:
 
 
·
Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;
 
·
Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and
 
·
Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
 
Our Level 1 assets and liabilities primarily include our cash and cash equivalents. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities. The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and notes payable approximate fair value due to the immediate or short-term maturities of these financial instruments. Our Level 2 liabilities consist of derivative liabilities. These are valued using observable inputs from readily available pricing sources for similar liabilities in active markets.

 
 
F-8

 


Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense is recorded in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, for stock and stock options awarded in return for services rendered. The expense is measured at the grant-date fair value of the award and recognized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the service period, which is the vesting period. The Company estimates forfeitures that it expects will occur and records expense based upon the number of awards expected to vest.
 
During fiscal years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, no stock compensation was awarded.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company classifies investments as cash equivalents if the original maturity of an investment is three months or less.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts to ensure trade and notes receivable are not overstated due to uncollectability.  The Company’s allowance is based on a variety of factors, including age of the receivable, significant one-time events, historical experience, and other risk considerations. The Company had no material accounts receivable and no allowance at December 31, 2014 and 2013.  During 2013, the Company wrote off the existing uncollectible accounts receivable in the amount of $182. No uncollectible accounts receivables were written off in 2014.

Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company continually assesses the appropriateness of inventory valuations giving consideration to slow-moving, non-saleable, out-of-date or close-dated inventory. As of December 31, 2013 the Company had $184 of inventory included in other current assets.  This represented expired Maxisal® and was written off in 2014.
 
Property and Equipment
 
Property and equipment are stated on the basis of historical cost less accumulated depreciation.  Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the two to seven year estimated useful lives of the assets.
 
Patents and Patent Expenditures
 
AMAR holds patent license agreements and holds patents that are owned by the Company. All patent license agreements remain in effect over the life of the underlying patents. Accordingly, the patent license fee is being amortized over the estimated life of the patent using the straight-line method. Patent fees and legal fees associated with the issuance of new owned patents are capitalized and amortized over the estimated 15 to 20 year life of the patent.  The Company continually evaluates the amortization period and carrying basis of patents to determine whether subsequent events and circumstances warrant a revised estimated useful life or impairment in value. To date, no such impairment has occurred. To the extent such events or circumstances occur that could affect the recoverability of our patents, we may incur charges for impairment in the future.
 

 
 
F-9

 


Since inception, the Company has worked to build an extensive patent portfolio for low-dose orally administered interferon. This portfolio consists of patents with claims that encompass method of use or treatment, and/or composition of matter and manufacturing. ABI presently owns or licenses six issued patents, including one patent on the dietary supplement Maxisal®.  Additionally, the Company has one patent pending.
 
Long-lived Assets
 
Impairment losses are recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets' carrying amount.  No impairment losses have been recorded since inception.
 
Income Taxes
 
The asset and liability approach is used to account for income taxes by recognizing deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Dietary supplement and interferon sales
 
Revenues for the dietary supplement and interferon sales are recognized when an arrangement exists, the price is fixed and it has been determined that collectability is reasonably assured.  This generally occurs at the point when the goods are shipped to the customer.  No products were produced in 2014 and 2013, no sales occurred, and no revenue was recognized.
 
Sublicense fee revenue
 
Sublicense revenue is calculated based on fees relating to a license.  Amarillo recognizes revenue on these sublicense fees in the month the revenue is generated by the licensee.  There were no licensees in 2014 and 2013 and consequently no sublicense fee revenue recognized.
 
Royalty revenue
 
Royalty revenue is calculated based on royalty fees as a percent of net sales relating to a license.  Amarillo recognizes revenue on these royalty payments in the year the revenue is generated by the licensee.  In 2014 and 2013, ABI had no agreements which would result in royalty revenue.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Use of Estimates

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

The most significant estimates are the assumptions used in the valuation models to determine the fair value of stock-based compensation and the fair value of the derivative liability.

 
 
F-10

 


Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. In 2014 and 2013, options and warrants outstanding were antidilutive and not included in the calculation of fully diluted net income (loss) per share.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash.

The Company has cash balances in a single financial institution which, from time to time, exceed the federally insured limit of $250,000.  No loss has been incurred related to this concentration of cash.

Other Concentrations

No other concentration situations or relationships exist.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
Management does not anticipate that any recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements will materially impact the Company’s financial condition.

2. Fresh Start Accounting

Upon the Company’s emergence from Chapter 11 bankruptcy, the Company applied the provisions of fresh start accounting to its financial statements as (i) the holders of existing voting shares of the Predecessor Company received less than 50% of the voting shares of the emerging entity and (ii) the reorganization value of the Company’s assets immediately prior to confirmation was less than the post-petition liabilities and allowed claims. The Company applied fresh start accounting as of November 20, 2014, with results of operations and cash flows in the period ending November 20, 2014 attributed to the Predecessor Company.

Upon the application of fresh start accounting, the Company allocated the reorganization value to its individual assets based on their estimated fair values. Reorganization value represents the fair value of the Successor Company’s assets before considering liabilities, and the excess of reorganization value over the fair value of identified tangible and intangible assets is reported separately on the balance sheet.

In accordance with fresh-start reporting requirements, management of ABI has reviewed its assets (excluding cash and prepaid expenses) and evaluated the estimated fair value of those assets, which includes its equipment and its patents. For equipment (which includes furniture & fixtures, computer equipment and software) management evaluated and determined that its estimated fair value immediately preceding ABI’s confirmation date was $0. Management reviewed the various types of equipment with an original book cost of approximately $46,000 and with dates acquired ranging from years between 1992 through 2008. Based on the condition and age of the equipment, management determined that any proceeds that could be received from a local auction-type sale would be minimal; therefore, management determined that $0 (which amount also represents current book carrying value) was a reasonable estimate of ABI’s equipment fair value. For patents, management evaluated and determined that its estimated fair value immediately preceding ABI confirmation date was approximately $86,000. Management reviewed the various patents with dates acquired ranging from

 
 
F-11

 


years between 1999 and 2010. Based on the consideration of minimal revenues and cash flows from these patents over the past years since their inception dates, management concluded that the discounted cash flow approach was not relevant. However management did consider what it believes ABI could potentially sell such patents for to a knowledgeable third-party firm in the bio-tech industry and in an arm’s length transaction, which management determined that $86,000 (which amount also represents current book carrying value) was a reasonable estimate of ABI patents fair value.

The four-column condensed balance sheet provided below applies the effects of the Plan of Reorganization and fresh start accounting to the carrying values and classifications of assets or liabilities as of November 20, 2014. Upon adoption of fresh start accounting, the recorded amounts of assets and liabilities were adjusted to reflect their estimated fair values. Accordingly, the reported historical financial statements of the Predecessor Company prior to the adoption of fresh start accounting for periods ended on or prior to November 20, 2014 are not comparable to those of the Successor Company.

In applying fresh start accounting, the Company followed these principles:
·  
The reorganization value, which represents the enterprise value and non-interest bearing liabilities, was allocated to the Successor Company's assets based on their estimated fair values. The reorganization value exceeded the sum of the fair value assigned to assets. This excess reorganization value was recorded as part of the Successor Company assets at November 20, 2014.
·  
Each liability existing as of the fresh start accounting date, other than deferred taxes, has been stated at the fair value, and determined at appropriate risk adjusted interest rates.
·  
Deferred taxes were reported in conformity with applicable income tax accounting standards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities have been recognized for differences between the assigned values and the tax basis of the recognized assets and liabilities.

The adjustments set forth in the following condensed balance sheet at November 20, 2014 reflect the effect of the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Plan of Reorganization (reflected in the column "Reorganization Adjustments") as well as fair value adjustments as a result of the adoption of fresh start accounting (reflected in the column "Fresh Start Adjustments").

5. Notes Payable

Related Party

The $3,006,753 amount owed to HBL was discharged when the Company paid $180,405 in full and final settlement of the Class Four – General Unsecured Debt.
 
The Company owed Paul Tibbits, a Director, principal and interest on a promissory note which had existed since 2010, in the amount of $235,056.  The debt was discharged when ABI paid $12,000 and $2,103 in principal and interest, respectively, in full and final settlement of the Class Four – General Unsecured Debt.

From July 22, 2010 through February 8, 2012, Paul Tibbits had received a total of 3,262 shares of the Company’s Series 2010-A 10% Convertible Preferred Stock in exchange for repayments of promissory notes, payment of interest on notes payable, dividends on the Preferred Stock, and interest on unpaid dividends on the Preferred Stock.  As of the filing date of the Chapter 11 Petition, October 31, 2013, Mr. Tibbits was owed $65,909 for accrued unpaid dividends and accrued interest on the unpaid dividends.  The debt was discharged when ABI paid $3,471 and $484 in unpaid dividends and interest on unpaid dividends, respectively, in full and final settlement of the Class Four – General Unsecured Debt.  Pursuant to the Rules of Bankruptcy, insomuch as the amounts owed to Mr. Tibbits were under-secured (there was no collateral securing this debt), no interest on unpaid dividends accrued from the filing date through the Effective Date of the Plan, November 20, 2014.  Dividends, however, continued to accrue through November 20, 2014 as permitted by the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and Rules of Bankruptcy. At December 31, 2014, $34,279 of unpaid dividends have been accrued.

The Yang Group has provided working capital loans in the total amount of $2,324,185 to ABI in fiscal years 2012, 2013, and 2014.  A significant amount of the cash provided was transferred to the company through Dr. Stephen Chen, ABI CEO.  Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, The Yang Group received 16,115,848 shares of ABI Common Equity in exchange for discharge of the Class Two – Allowed Unsecured of (The) Yang (Group) as of the Effective Date of the Plan, November 20, 2014.

On the Effective Date, the Class Three Secured Claim of Yang will be deemed allowed in the amount of $150,000, secured by the same assets that secured Yang’s prepetition secured claim (See Texas Financing Statement No. 13-0029795076). This claim will bear interest at the Applicable Federal Rate, and be fully amortized and paid as follows: five (5) consecutive equal annual installments of combined principal and interest, beginning September 1, 2014, and continuing on the same date of each succeeding year until September 1, 2018, when the obligation is due and payable in full.

 
F-16

 
Subsequent to consummation of the Plan, The Yang Group has provided $384,555 for post-reorganization financing.

Non-Related Party

We had a line of credit with Wells Fargo for $20,000, with an interest rate of prime rate plus 6.75 percent.  There was an outstanding balance of $18,376 on October 31, 2013, when the Chapter 11 Petition was filed.  As provided by the Plan of Reorganization, The debt was discharged when ABI paid $1,111 in full and final settlement of the Class Four– General Unsecured Debt.
 
6. License, Sublicense, Manufacturing, Research and Supply Agreements

Manufacturing and Supply Agreements:
 
Hayashibara Biochemical Laboratories, Inc. (“HBL”) ceased to produce natural human interferon in December of 2012.  Historically, the research and development was conducted by ABI using this unique form of natural human interferon supplied by HBL.  Their departure from the Interferon market left ABI without a current source of interferon with which to conduct clinical trials and ultimately commercialize a product.  Additionally, this interferon no longer provides a competitive edge insomuch as the industry as a whole is rapidly moving toward the use of recombinant interferon rather than natural human interferon.  The Company is exploring its options and is talking with alternate suppliers of interferon.

ABI’s thirty years of data has been generated from the numerous studies performed using natural human interferon.  Since human interferon is virtually impossible to obtain, those studies will have to be repeated using recombinant interferon.  Repeating the studies will be both costly and time consuming.  While the pharmaceutical industry is creating and marketing new and effective anti-viral medications, ABI believes that there is still sufficient time to develop and commercialize low dose interferon for treatment of such diseases as Influenza, Chronic Cough in COPD, Hepatitis B, C, and D, and Thrombocytopenia caused by other diseases and as a side effect of treatment of other diseases.

Strategic Alliance with CytoPharm

On May 15, 2013, the Company entered into a CIT Patents Agreement with CytoPharm, Inc. (“CP”) a former licensee for oral IFN technology in Taiwan and China. This agreement establishes the ownership, inventorship, prosecution, maintenance, use and commercialization of a patent regarding treatment of thrombocytopenia with oral IFN that developed out of a study conducted by CP under a previous License and Supply Agreement.

Strategic Alliance with Intas Pharmaceuticals

On January 7, 2010, the Company entered into a License and Supply Agreement with Intas Pharmaceuticals Ltd., an India-based pharmaceutical company with three decades of experience in the healthcare industry and a global presence in 42 countries worldwide. Given the problems associated with the natural human interferon supply, it is likely that the agreement with Intas will be terminated as the Company can no longer supply them with natural human IFN produced by Hayashibara.  Once the problems associated with the interferon supply are solved, the Company will most likely endeavor to enter into another such agreement with Intas Pharmaceuticals.

 
F-17

 
 
License and Sublicense Agreements:

The Company holds patent rights for which the Company has paid certain license fees under a license agreement with Texas A&M University System. Under this agreement, the Company will pay the licensor a portion of any sublicense fee received by the Company with respect to the manufacturing, use or sale of a licensed product, as well as a royalty fee based on the net selling price of licensed products, subject to a minimum annual royalty.
 
There were no sublicense fees due to HBL for 2013 or 2014.
 
The Company has also entered into various sublicense agreements under which the Company is entitled to receive royalties based on the net sales value of licensed products. However, given the termination of the Development Agreement with HBL, some of these sublicense agreements have been canceled, and it is likely that the rest will be terminated in the near future.

Research Agreements:

The Company currently has no ongoing studies so there are no obligations to pay third parties in 2014 for expenses related to clinical studies.

Derivative Liabilities:

During the year ended December 31, 2012, Hope Capital, Inc. exercised its right to convert debt into shares of ABI Common Stock. The embedded conversion features in the debt conversion and redemption features were accounted for as a derivative liability.  The debt also included warrants which were valued as a liability and discount to the note, due to the unknown number of shares to be issued upon conversion of the debt, causing a lack of sufficient authorized shares to be available to settle the warrants. The derivative liabilities were marked-to-market each quarter with the change in fair value recorded in the income statement.  At each respective conversion date, the derivative liabilities were remeasured with the changes in fair value recorded to the income statement.  At full conversion of the debt the warrants were no longer deemed to be a liability and were returned to equity for $17,035.

There was no net derivative gain for 2014. In 2013, the derivative gain was $4,217.

11.  Income Taxes
 
Income tax expense (benefit) attributable to income from continuing operations differed from the amounts computed by applying the U.S. Federal income tax of 34% to pretax income from continuing operations as a result of the following:
 
 
F-21

 

   
December 31, 2014
   
December 31, 2013
 
Provision (benefit) at statutory rate
  $ (966,000 )   $ 202,000  
Change in valuation allowance
    966,000       (202,000 )
    $ -     $ -  

 
The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities at December 31, 2014 and 2013, are presented below:
 
   
December 31, 2014
   
December 31, 2013
 
Deferred tax assets:
           
  Net operating loss carryforward
  $ 6,776,000     $ 7,742,000  
    Deferred tax assets
    6,776,000       7,742,000  
                 
Deferred tax liabilities:

Net deferred tax assets
    6,776,000       7,742,000  
Valuation allowance
    (6,776,000 )     (7,742,000 )
    $ -     $ -  

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes. The Company’s deferred tax asset of approximately $6,776,000 and $7,742,000 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, was subject to a valuation allowance of $6,776,000 and $7,742,000 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, because of uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to realize future tax benefits associated with the deferred tax assets. Deferred tax assets were comprised primarily of net operating loss carryovers under the cash method of accounting used by the Company for federal income tax reporting. The valuation allowance decreased by $966,000 in 2014 and increased by $202,000 in 2013, due to the changes in the Company’s net operating loss carryover amounts.
 
At December 31, 2014, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $19,930,000 for federal income tax purposes expiring in 2015 through 2034.  At December 31, 2013, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $22,176,000 for federal income tax purposes expiring in 2014 through 2033. The ability of the Company to utilize these carryforwards may be limited should changes in stockholder ownership occur.
 
The difference between the reported income tax provision and the benefit normally expected by applying the statutory rate to the loss before income taxes results from the change during 2014 and 2013 of the deferred tax asset valuation allowance. As a result, the reported effective tax rate is 0%.

13. Related Party Transactions
 
Historically, ABI has relied upon certain relationships which gave rise to related transactions.  These relationships have helped ABI with financing, ingredients to potential products, research, and technology.  All future transactions and loans between the Company and its officers, directors and 5% shareholders will be on terms no less favorable to the Company than could be obtained from independent third parties. There can be no assurance, however, that future transactions or arrangements between the Company and its affiliates will be advantageous, that conflicts of interest will not arise with respect thereto or that if conflicts do arise, that they will be resolved in favor of the Company.
 
Currently there are no such arrangements that have not already been disclosed in this document.
