EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

Background and Effects of Restatement

 

Rasna Therapeutics, Inc., formerly Active With Me, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our, the “Company” or “Rasna”) is filing this Amendment No. 2 to Form 8-K (the “Amendment”) to amend and restate its Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Original Form 8-K”) filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 17, 2016 (the “Original Filing Date”), as amended by Form 8-K/A (the “Amendment No. 1”) filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 17, 2016 (the “Amendment Filing Date”).

 

In filing this Amendment, the Company restates the previously issued unaudited financial statements for Rasna Therapeutics Inc for the period ending June 30, 2016 (the “Unaudited Financial Statements”) to: (i) reflect certain expenses which were not appropriately accrued during the reporting period due to the timing of receipt of invoices and (ii) reflect the accounting for certain warrants that were issued in February 2017 which have been deemed to have an associated liability recordable from the service date of April 2016 and (iii) to apply the correct methodology to record transactions in the Company’s USD bank account.

 

As reported in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 14, 2017, on March 10, 2017, the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”), in consultation with management concluded that: (i) the previously issued Unaudited Financial Statements should no longer be relied upon due to errors identified therein; and (ii) the Unaudited Financial Statements required restatement. The errors were identified in the course of preparing the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended December 31, 2016, and were as follows:

 

1.Subsequent to Rasna Therapeutic Inc’s Form 10-Q filing for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2016, it was determined that certain expenses were not accrued due to the timing of receipt of invoices. The issue was identified upon receipt of a small group of invoices, which were ultimately forwarded to, and received by, the Company after the September 30, 2016 Form 10-Q was filed. Due to the unrecorded expenses, the Company understated Net loss by $111,408 in the quarter to June, 30 2016

 

  2. In February 2017, the Company issued certain warrants for a placement fee in connection with common stock that was issued in April 2016. Management  has determined that the Company received the benefit of the services in respect of the warrants before the grant date, therefore it recognizes that the warrants should be accounted for at service inception date as per ASC 718-10-55-108, Accounting when service inception date precedes grant date . This led to a recognition of a liability of $484,009 in April 2016, offset by a change in fair value of $1,894 for the period ending June, 30 2016 .

 

  3. Subsequent to Rasna Therapeutic Inc’s Form 10-Q filing for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2016, it was determined that the Company had not applied the correct translation methodology to convert some banking transactions into USD. This led to an overstatement of cash and an understatement of accounts payable by $4,716.

Revenue

 

There were no revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 because the Company does not have any commercial biopharmaceutical products.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses consisting of research & development, legal and professional expenses, consultancy, and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2016 increased to $329,834 from $106,976 for the three months ended June 30, 2015, an increase of $222,858. The increase is primarily attributable to increased research & development expenses, general and administrative expenses and legal and professional fees related to patent expenses.

 

Net Loss

 

Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2016 increased to $327,173 from $106,976 for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The increase is primarily attributable to increased research & development expenses, general and administrative expenses and legal and professional fees related to patent expenses.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We have experienced net losses and significant cash used in operations activities since our inception in 2013 and as of June 30, 2016, had an accumulated deficit of $5,151,221, a net loss for three months ended June 30, 2016 of $327,173 and net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended June 30, 2016 of $256,076. Our management expects us to continue to incur net losses and have significant cash outflows for at least the next twelve months. These conditions, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this 8-K/A have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of our assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. A successful transition to attaining profitable operations is dependent upon achieving a level of positive cash flows adequate to support our cost structure.

 

  -4- 

 

 

As of June 30, 2016, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $4,860,533. The board of directors of the Company is of the opinion that this cash position is sufficient to continue operating for the next twelve months from the Balance Sheet date (June 30, 2016) but will require significant additional cash resources to launch new development phases of existing projects in its pipeline.

 

Capital Resources

 

The following table summarizes total current assets, liabilities and working capital as of the periods indicated:

Working capital  $3,214,925   $(21,068)  $3,235,993 

 

The Company had a cash balance of $4,860,533 and $0, as of June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively.

 

Liquidity

 

The following table sets forth a summary of our unaudited cash flows for the periods indicated:

 

   Three Months Ended June 30, 
   2016   2015   Increase/(Decrease) 
             
Net cash used in operating activities  $256,076   $   $256,076 
Net cash provided by investing activities  $5,116,609   $   $5,116,609 

 

Cash Used in Operating Activities

 

Cash used in operating activities consists of net loss adjusted for the effect of changes in operating assets and liabilities.

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $256,076 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2015.  The change is principally attributable to net loss of $327,173 offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $61,606 and a non-cash add back of share based compensation to non-employees of $9,491 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to a net loss of $106,976 and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $106,976 for the three months ended June 30, 2015.

 

Cash Provided by Investing Activities

 

Cash provided by investing activities consists of assets acquired in business combination of a VIE of $5,116,609 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2015.

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We consolidate variable interest entities (“VIE”) in which we hold a controlling financial interest as evidenced by the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses of, or the right to receive benefits from, the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE and therefore are deemed to be the primary beneficiary. We take into account our entire involvement in a VIE (explicit or implicit) in identifying variable interests that individually or in the aggregate could be significant enough to warrant our designation as the primary beneficiary and hence require us to consolidate the VIE or otherwise require us to make appropriate disclosures.
