TRIDENT BRANDS INCORPORATED
(f/k/a SANDFIELD VENTURES CORP.)
Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements
May 31, 2015
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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 now focused on consumer products. The objective is investment in
and development of high growth consumer brands and ingredients businesses. The
Company is in the early growth stage and has transitioned out of their shell
status with the Super-8 filing at the end of August. Its activities to date have
been limited to capital formation, organization, development of its business
plan and development of an array of products for sale.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
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 2014 as reported in the
Form 10-K have been omitted.
BENEFICIAL CONVERSION FEATURES
The intrinsic value of a beneficial conversion feature inherent to a convertible
note payable, which is not bifurcated and accounted for separately from the
convertible note payable and may not be settled in cash upon conversion, is
treated as a discount to the convertible note payable. This discount is
amortized over the period from the date of issuance to the date the note is due
using the effective interest method. If the note payable is retired prior to the
end of its contractual term, the unamortized discount is expensed in the period
of retirement to interest expense. In general, the beneficial conversion feature
is measured by comparing the effective conversion price, after considering the
relative fair value of detachable instruments included in the financing
transaction, if any, to the fair value of the common shares at the commitment
date to be received upon conversion.
NOTE 3. GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements are presented on a going concern basis.
The Company had no significant operations during the period from November 5,
2007 (date of inception) to May 31, 2015 and generated an accumulated deficit of
$1,828,632. This condition raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability
to continue as a going concern. The Company is currently in the early growth
stage at product introduction phase and expenses are increasing. They have
secured short term bridge loans and a convertible promissory note to cover these
expenses. The current cash of $955,165 is insufficient to cover the expenses
they will incur during the next twelve months. The company is currently
investigating various financing alternatives in order to address this issue.
6
NOTE 4. 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 May 31, 2015 the Company paid
a director $500 per month for use of office space and services.
During the quarter ended February 28, 2015, the company paid off the balance of
the loan payable of $53,820 due to Mark Holcombe, sole officer and director of
the Company.
During the quarter ended February 28, 2015, Michael Browne loaned the Company
$75,000 and the Company paid back $86,250 with $11,250 as a debt issuance cost
which is recognized as interest expense when the loan is paid off.
NOTE 5. LOAN PAYABLE - THIRD PARTY
We have two short term loans. One for $200,000 and the other for $100,000 both
bearing 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
(payment maturity date has been extended) and July 21, 2015 respectively. As of
May 31, 2015, the full amount of the loans are outstanding and the accrued
interest expense is $24,215 ($17,333 and $6,882 respectively).
On December 16, 2014, the Company issued 3 promissory notes totalling $100,000
as bridge loans for working capital purposes. The company paid back $123,000
with $23,000 as debt issuance cost which is recognized as interest expense when
the loan is paid off.
NOTE 6. CONVERTIBLE NOTE
On January 29, 2015, Trident Brands Incorporated entered into a securities
purchase agreement with a non-US institutional investor whereby it agreed to
sell an aggregate principal amount of $2,300,000 of senior secured convertible
debentures, convertible into shares of the company's common stock. The Company
received $1,800,000 of the funds from the transaction on February 5, 2015. The
balance of $500,000 was received on May 14, 2015.
The convertible debentures are convertible into shares of the Company's common
stock at an initial conversion price of $.71 per share, for an aggregate of up
to 3,239,437 shares. The debentures bear interest at 6% per annum. The
applicable portion of the Principal Amount and the Interest outstanding shall be
due and payable on the date that is 12 months from the applicable Issuance Date.
The accrued interest expense is $34,071.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this transaction for working
capital and general corporate purposes.
Due to the note being convertible to the company common shares, beneficial
conversion features analysis was performed. The intrinsic value is $647,887
which is recognized as debt discount. As of May 31, 2015, $176,019 of the debt
discount is amortized and the unamortized discount is $471,868.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains forward-looking statements that involve risk and
uncertainties. We use words such as "anticipate", "believe", "plan", "expect",
"future", "intend", and similar expressions to identify such forward-looking
statements. Investors should be aware that all forward-looking statements
contained within this filing are good faith estimates of management as of the
date of this filing and actual results may differ materially from historical
results or our predictions of future results.
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. Our administrative office is located at
200 South Executive Drive, Suite 101, Brookfield, Wisconsin, 53005. Our fiscal
year end is November 30.
The Company is in the early growth stage at product introduction phase and has
transitioned out of their shell status with the Super-8 filing in August, 2014.
Its activities to date have been limited to capital formation, organization,
development of its business plan and development of their products for sale.
Everlast Lean, Everlast Burn, Everlast VP Vegan Protein and Everlast Fuel are
now available for sale and the next few quarters should see a ramp-up in sales
revenue. Our independent auditor has issued an audit opinion which includes a
statement expressing substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going
concern.
We have a total of 300,000,000 authorized common shares with a par value of
$0.001 per share and 28,000,000 common shares issued and outstanding as of May
31, 2015.
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 entered in to 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(R) 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:
9
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.
On March 24, 2015, we acquired, through a licensing agreement with DSM, the
exclusive global rights to Brain Armor(R), a plant-based DHA supplement designed
specifically for the needs of athletes.
On June 29, 2015 Trident Brands appointed Dr. Neilank K. JHA, MD, FRCS (C) as
special advisor to its Brain Armor subsidiary.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
We are in the early growth stage and have generated very little in revenues to
date.
We incurred operating expenses of $566,977 and $85,197 for the three months
ended May 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. These expenses consisted of general
operating expenses, rent and professional fees incurred in connection with the
day to day operation of our business and the preparation and filing of our
required reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
We have sold $75,000 in equity securities to date. We sold $15,000 in equity
securities to our officer and director and $60,000 to independent investors.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our cash balance at May 31, 2015 was $955,165 with $2,344,302 in outstanding
liabilities.
We have two short term loans. One for $200,000 and the other for $100,000 both
bearing 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
(payment maturity date has been extended) and July 21, 2015 respectively. As of
May 31, 2015, the full amount of the loans are outstanding and the accrued
interest expense is $24,215 ($17,333 and $6,882 respectively).
10
On January 29, 2015, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement
with a non-US institutional investor whereby it agreed to sell an aggregate
principal amount of $2,300,000 of senior secured convertible debentures,
convertible into shares of the company's common stock. The Company received
$1,800,000 of the funds from the transaction on February 5, 2015 and the balance
of $500,000 on May 14, 2015.
The convertible debentures are convertible into shares of the Company's common
stock at an initial conversion price of $.71 per share, for an aggregate of up
to 3,239,437 shares. The debentures bear interest at 6% per annum. The
applicable portion of the Principal Amount and the Interest outstanding shall be
due and payable on the date that is 12 months from the applicable Issuance Date.
The accrued interest expense is $34,071 .
Management believes the current funds available to the company will not be
sufficient to fund our operations for the next twelve months. We are an early
growth stage company and have generated no significant revenue to date.
The following table provides selected financial data about our company for the
quarter ended May 31, 2015.

product company. We anticipate that we will incur the following operating
expenses during this period:

11
We will require funds of approximately $1,680,000 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.
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 $1,828,632 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.
Our objective is the creation of value through strategic investments high growth
early stage consumer brands businesses. We intend to focus on control
investments in companies within the 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. The platforms we will be focusing on are:
* Brand Licenses or Consolidated Licenses
* Consumer hard and soft goods
* Functional Food and Beverage
* Life Science technology that have applications in consumer products
* Natural and Organic food and beverage Intellectual Property and/or
licenses in recognized brand platforms
INVESTMENT STRATEGY
Trident will 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 vast expertise in both the consumer branded segment and investment
experience, we seek to provide our shareholders with near term value and
liquidity. Through strategic investment and controlled organic growth, Trident
Brands will seek to provide their investments with solid short and long term
returns and yields.
12
The Company strategic objective is:
* Make strategic controlled investments in high growth companies
* Merge brands/business lines into larger multi-national Companies
* Build and grow strategic brands organically
* Mitigate risk by creating a diverse portfolio of companies in the
growth sectors listed above.
