Forward Looking Statements

This Annual Report on Form 10-K ("Annual Report") contains forward-looking statements. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. A number of important factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us in this Form 10-K. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may," "should," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts," "potential," or "continue" or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including the risks in the section entitled "Risk Factors" and the risks set out below, any of which may cause our or our industry's actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

Our business is subject to a number of risks of which you should be aware before making an investment decision. These risks are discussed more fully in the "Risk Factors" section of this annual report. These risks include, by way of example and not in limitation:

we have a limited operating history and have to generate net income from our operations. Our first Prosthetics and Orthotics clinic opened in fiscal 2014 and continues to operate at a loss. We have realized limited income by way of licensing fees relative to development of our technology, and we currently have no commercial products in the market;

we currently have several technologies and product prototypes which, while nearing commercialization, require further development to market the specific application.. Our ability to generate product revenues, which may not occur for several years, if ever, will depend on the successful development and commercialization of these technologies including the "Sensor" technology, the "Socketfit" technology and product applications derived from our "Smart Insole" product prototypes as well as our recently developed portable motion capture and gait analysis technology.

·	our current and any future collaborations with third parties for the development and commercialization of our current product or any newly acquired products or businesses may not be successful;
·	we intend to acquire and operate additional clinics related to our business, however, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in doing so or if that if we do acquire such clinics that they will be profitable;

·	risks related to the failure to successfully manage or achieve growth of our business if we are successful in the development of our technology or the acquisition of clinics; and
·	other risks and uncertainties related to our business strategy.

This list is not an exhaustive list of the factors that may affect any of our forward-looking statements. These and other factors should be considered carefully and readers should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements.

Forward looking statements are made based on management's beliefs, estimates and opinions on the date the statements are made and we undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements if these beliefs, estimates and opinions or other circumstances should change. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

The safe harbors of forward-looking statements provided by Section 21E of the Exchange Act are unavailable to issuers of penny stock. As we issued securities at a price below $5.00 per share, our shares are considered penny stock and such safe harbors set forth under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 are unavailable to us.

Our financial statements are stated in United States dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

In this annual report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars and all references to "common stock" refer to the common shares in our capital stock.

As used in this Annual Report, the terms "we," "us," "company," "our" and "Viocare" mean HCi Viocare, and our wholly-owned Scottish subsidiaries: HCi Viocare Technologies Limited and HCi Viocare Clinics UK Limited, unless otherwise indicated.

PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

1.1 BACKGROUND

The address of our principal executive office is Kintyre House, 209 Govan Road, Glasgow G511HJ, Scotland, United Kingdom. Our telephone number is +44 141 370 0321. The Company's web-site is http://www.hciviocare.com.

Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Markets Inc. owned and operated Inter-dealer Quotation System ("OTCQB") under the symbol "VICA".

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on March 26, 2007 as a company intending to sell medical devices in the northern regions of China. Our intent was to seek strategic relationships with medical device manufacturers both in China and North America with the aim to be their sales and distribution agent in northern China. We also intended to assist Chinese medical device manufacturers on the development of the North American market. The Company did not find suitable relationships with which to progress its business until it undertook a change in management in September 2013. With the change in management, the Company determined that it would initially concentrate on the development and marketing of medical devices in Europe, more particularly initially in Scotland, where management had identified several opportunities for entry into the markets for prosthetics and orthotics. We are currently engaged in healthcare innovation in the fields of prosthetics and orthotics (P&O), and we intend to be engaged in the operation of P&O total rehabilitation clinics. We have two wholly-owned Scottish subsidiaries: HCi Viocare Technologies Limited and HCi Viocare Clinics UK Limited.

On December 27, 2013, pursuant to approval of the Board of Directors and the majority stock holder on November 28, 2013 and November 29, 2013 respectively, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation of the Company for the purpose of clearly providing the directors of the Company with the authority to issue both common and preferred stock without approval by the stockholders and to grant the authority of the directors of the Company to issue such shares of common and/or preferred stock in one or more series, with such voting power, designation, preferences and rights or qualifications, limitations or restrictions as they may determine by resolution of the Board of Directors.

On January 13, 2014, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. The Certificate of Designation sets forth the rights, preferences and privileges of a class of the Company's preferred stock. Such class shall be designated as the "Series A Preferred Stock" and the number of shares constituting such series shall be 5,000,000 shares. The holders of Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to a preference over all of the shares of the Company's common stock. The holders of common stock and the holders of Series A preferred stock vote together as a single class with the holders of the Series A preferred stock having 50 votes per share of Series A preferred stock and the holders of common stock having 1 vote per share of common stock. Holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to notice of any stockholders' meeting. No shares of Series A preferred stock have been issued as of the filing date of this report.

On January 15, 2014, we formed our wholly-owned subsidiary, HCi Viocare Technologies Limited ("Viocare Technologies"), a corporation incorporated pursuant to the laws of Scotland, under registration number SC467480. Viocare Technologies undertakes research, development and commercialization of state of the art, new, innovative medical devices, methods and products in the fields of prosthetics, orthotics, rehabilitation, bioengineering, mobility, diabetes, diabetic foot, tissue mechanics, ultrasonics, medical signal processing and analysis, medical technology, orthopedics and robotic surgery. Viocare Technologies also plans to expand its research and development reach, to create a stable pipeline of new products and upgrades in the fields of prosthetics, orthotics, and diabetes.

On February 12, 2014 we acquired intellectual property rights ("IPR") over an innovative medical technology entitled 'SocketFit' from our Board Member Dr. Christos Kapatos, as well as over any additional technologies under development or that may be developed in the future. Consideration for the acquisition of the exclusive, perpetual, revocable, transferable, royalty free worldwide ownership of the IPR, and know how to develop and exploit the IPR was the issuance of 3,500,000 shares of the common stock of the Company to Kapatos. SocketFit is a system that will help overcome technical and resource hurdles endemic to the prosthetic sector. The system has been designed with the aim of offering optimally fitted prosthetic sockets that will reduce the number of prostheses made for, resulting in a reduced number of visits by the patient to the prosthetic, and also assisting in the rehabilitation of amputees.

On March 21, 2014, the Company's name changed from China Northern Medical Device, Inc. to HCi Viocare in regard to actions taken on November 28, 2013, when the Board of Directors of the Company approved, and recommended to the majority stockholder that they approve the name change. On November 29, 2013, the majority stockholder approved the name change by written consent in lieu of a meeting, in accordance with Nevada State Law. FINRA approved the name change with an effective date of March 21, 2014. Our trading symbol is "VICA". We filed an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada changing our name to HCi Viocare to be effective on March 21, 2014.

On April 17, 2014, the Company, through our Scottish subsidiary, HCi Viocare Technologies Limited, entered into an acquisition agreement with Dr. Christos Kapatos, a director of both the Company and HCi Viocare Technologies ("Kapatos"), to acquire all rights and interest in and to the background IPR for a developing technology now known as "Flexisense". Kapatos has conceived and been working on a Smart Insole System which is believed to be a state-of-the-art, pressure and shear force sensing insole with an incorporated real-time global display application and a fully featured support web-space that suggests to the user and his podiatrist/physiotherapist when inappropriate or dangerous conditions are developing on the feet. The product is being designed to help mitigate diabetic foot complications, such as ulceration, infection and amputation.

The competing insoles that were commercially available at this time can only monitor vertical pressure on the foot and not shear and have a significantly higher cost, and are intended for use in clinical or research environments.

As consideration for the acquisition:

HCi Viocare Technologies shall cause the parent Company to issue to Kapatos a total of 3,500,000 shares of the common stock of the Company on execution of the agreement and 3,500,000 shares of the common stock of the Company for each and every new version of the technology (new version to mean any update or improvement to the initial commercial product to be developed from the technology, after the commercial development of the first Market Ready Insole from the technology acquired, should the new version be developed to commercial market ready stage);

·	a cash bonus in the amount of $10,000,000USD should the technology be sold at any stage of development for an amount equal or greater than five hundred million ($500,000,000) cash or the equivalent thereof by way of any other consideration.

On May 8, 2015, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary company HCi Viocare Technologies Limited entered into an agreement with Dr. Christos Kapatos, to amend the acquisition agreement ("Amendment of Acquisition Agreement") dated April 17, 2014. Under the Amendment of Acquisition Agreement, the parties agreed, among certain other terms and conditions, to the issuance of 7,000,000 restricted shares of the common stock of the Company as additional consideration for all other applications of the Smart Insole technology. Furthermore, under the terms of the Amendment of Acquisition Agreement no cash bonus shall be provided to Kapatos.

On April 15, 2014, the Company established a scientific advisory board whereby the Company intends to appoint certain advisors that can contribute to the Company's overall business strategy and future direction.

On June 9, 2014, the Company, through our Scottish subsidiary, HCi Viocare Clinics, entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Mr. William Donald Spence, Miss Catriona Ann Spence, and Mrs. Eilidh Isabel Malcolm (together the "vendors"), to acquire 100% of the issued capital of W D Spence Prosthetics Limited (the "Clinic"). The Clinic is incorporated in Scotland under company number SC307652, having its registered office at 8 Tomcroy Terrace, Pitlochry, Perthshire, PH16 5JA, UK. The Clinic is a private company limited by shares, with no registered charges, and the total issued share capital amounts to 1,000 ordinary shares par value of £1 each. The vendors to the Share Purchase Agreement are the beneficial owners and registered holders of all (100%) the shares of the Clinic, with Mr. William Donald Spence holding 520 ordinary shares, and Miss Catriona Ann Spence and Mrs. Eilidh Isabel Malcolm each holding 240 ordinary shares. Mr. Spence is also the director of the Clinic, and Miss Malcolm is the secretary. The Clinic has no employees or subsidiaries, and is not a subsidiary of another company.

The Clinic is located in Glasgow, Scotland, and is a fully operational prosthetics clinic. The acquisition of the Clinic is the first step to the Company's and HCi Viocare Clinics' intention to develop the first chain of prosthetics and orthotics (P&O) and diabetes clinics in the European market, covering Southern Europe, the Middle East and North Africa.

On March 2, 2015, the Company announced the conclusion of a lease agreement for a modern, stand-alone 5,300 square foot facility in Glasgow, Scotland with an entry date of March 1, 2015. The building hosts the Company's first Viocare center, a full service Prosthetic and Orthotic ("P&O") practice with a superior standard of personalized care. This new facility serves as the center of reference and training for the intended chain of Viocare P&O and diabetic foot centers across Europe, ensuring their adherence to British and International standards. The Company's Technologies subsidiary occupies the first floor of the building to continue to develop its portfolio of bioengineering innovations.

On March 31, 2015, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary HCi Viocare Clinics and its subsidiary W D Spence Prosthetics Limited completed a merger with the resulting combined entity having the name HCi Viocare Clinics UK Limited.

On July 8, 2015, the Company incorporated HCi Viocare Clinics (Hellas) S A in order to carry out operations for the planning and development of a P&O clinic in Athens, Greece. On August 2, 2017 the Company commenced the dissolution and liquidation of this corporation.

On August 8, 2015 FINRA approved a seven (7) new for one (1) old forward split of our authorized and issued and outstanding shares of common. A Certificate of Change for the stock split was filed and became effective with the Nevada Secretary of State on August 7, 2015. Consequently, our authorized share capital increased from 100,000,000 to 700,000,000 shares of common stock and our issued and outstanding common stock increased accordingly, all with a par value of $0.0001. Our preferred stock remained unchanged. All share and per share figures contained herein reflect the impact of the forward split.

On July 18, 2015, the Company appointed Mr. Yiannis Levantis as a member of the Board of Directors.

On September 1, 2015, the Board of Directors approved a consulting agreement with Sergios Katsaros and appointed Mr. Katsaros Vice President of HCi Viocare.

On September 25, 2015, the official opening of the Company's new Research and Development (R&D) center together with its first Prosthetics and Orthotics (P&O) clinic in the UK took place in Glasgow, Scotland with an official ribbon cutting by Scotland's First Minister, Nicola Sturgeon MSP. Additional information and updates on the Company's Clinic and R&D center can be found at the new Glasgow clinic website: www.hci-viocare.co.uk and on Twitter: @HCiVioClinic.

On April 11, 2016 the Company announced the branding of its unique smart insole technology as "Flexisense^TM".

On September 15, 2016, the Company appointed Mr. Nikolaos Kardaras as Director of its subsidiary HCi Viocare Clinics UK Ltd. and HCi Viocare Technologies, Inc. subsequent to the resignation of Dr. Christos Kapatos from both corporations effective June 27, 2016.

On September 23, 2016 the Company entered into a licensing agreement with respect to certain applications of its Flexisense™ Technology with Carilex Medical Inc. a leading medical mattresses manufacturer. Under the terms of the agreement the Company will receive a Technology Access Fee, as well as certain staggered success fee payments as each commercialized product under the scope of the agreement is completed. In addition, there are product based royalty fees payable to the Company on a sliding scale based on production levels for all commercial products sold into the marketplace.

Other than as set out herein, we have not been involved in any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceedings, nor have we been a party to any material reclassification, merger, consolidation or purchase or sale of a significant amount of assets not in the ordinary course of our business.

Our Current Business – Research & Development and commercialization of technology for healthcare innovation including various athletic applications, and the operation of Prosthetics and Orthotics clinics.

The Company intends to exploit the growing need for high quality care and prevention in the growing population of the obese, diabetic, amputated and/or movement impaired through development of:

-	Chain of Clinics: Prosthetic, Orthotic and (diabetic foot) rehabilitation centers in poorly served markets, such as Mediterranean Europe & the Middle East. Differentiation through British standards in clinical practice, qualifications and training.

-	Technologies: Suite of patented solutions to help prevent, monitor & alleviate complications across different patient and athletic populations. Collaboration with and licensing to established industry participants globally to facilitate rapid development, distribution and scale.

We commenced modest revenue generating operations in fiscal 2014 and are primarily engaged in the research and development, commercialization and marketing of innovative medical technologies including wearable devices and on body applications that have use in insoles, in shoes, in cushions, seats, mattresses, saddles and any other wearable devices such as smart apparel and sports equipment. Further we are in development for more far reaching applications including use in automotive tires and other targeted industries where sensor technology may have valuable application. Further we continue to operate and expand our brand of prosthetics and orthotics ("P&O") and diabetic foot total rehabilitation clinics. During fiscal 2016 our flagship prosthetics clinic in Glasgow Scotland completed its first full year of operations after relocation to a larger state of the art facility which allowed for a substantive increase in our year over year revenues. Presently our revenue stream is derived primarily from the Company's flagship P&O clinic located in Glasgow, Scotland, and with some initial commercial income from prospective licensing partners for the Technologies businesses.

The Company's technologies and R&D portfolio presently consists of:

•

Filing of 3 patents in the UK: pressure sensor system; pressure & shear; pressure & positioning (Dec 2014) (all of which patents were abandoned upon the filing of a new International (PCT) patent application in December 2015 which covers over 140 countries around the world, and includes further advances made to the sensor systems, and a wider range of applications in products that touch people's everyday lives;

•

2 further patents drafted and pending filing during fiscal 2018, with a further 4 patent applications currently in draft form;

•	In excess of 4 prototypes: pressure & shear insole; smart cushion, smart mattress, with several of these prototypes in the commercialization stage;
•	1 proof of concept device: robotic surgical assistive device;

•	High level diagrams or complex documentation and software for other innovations in the portfolio.
•	Various customized prototypes in testing and development with commercial partners.

1.2 OUR TECHNOLOGIES

Research and Development

Research and development costs were $1,290,345 and $340,782 for the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

A.	The Sensor Technology

As part of our ongoing development efforts stemming from R&D related to our base technologies acquired in fiscal 2014 from Dr. Christos Kapatos, notably the Smart Insole technology, HCi Viocare has developed a sensor system that can be incorporated into any thin, flexible, bendable material and is capable of measuring direct force applied vertically and shear forces applied horizontally. Each sensor can connect with other sensors, creating a network, in order to monitor an entire area.

Due to the nature of the technology used, which is currently being kept confidential, the sensor is unaffected by bending, temperature, humidity and excess pressure, load, making it suable for medical applications, wearable devices and on-body applications. The sensor system has been designed to be used in insoles, in shoes, in cushions, seats, mattresses, saddles and any other wearable devices such as smart apparel and sports equipment. A key feature of the sensor system is its low cost, with the components for each one sensing point measuring pressure and shear forces at a cost of US$1.10, which is an order of magnitude lower than conventional pressure-only sensing solutions such as capacitance, resistance or strain gauges.

The sensor system has been integrated into a prototype of an insole which is an autonomous, non-invasive, stand-alone unit, with its own rechargeable power supply, microcontroller and wireless communication unit. The insole can connect with smartphones, tablet pcs and pcs, through a mobile application, in order to transmit the data collected to the end user. End users could be a diabetic patient, to monitor pressure and shear forces for the prevention of diabetic foot ulcers, athletes interested in the impact on their knees of their running style or wanting to monitor the totality of their golf swing, or clinicians such as physiotherapists, orthotists and prosthetists needing to evaluate a person's gait.

The Company believes that there are applications for its force sensing technology in many fields within healthcare and sports, as well as more industrial fields due to its relative low cost vs conventional pressure sensing, its ability to measure shear forces in addition to pressure, its bendability and its reliability in a wide range of environments.

During fiscal 2016 the Company branded its unique area of sensor based technologies, "Flexisense^TM". Please visit http://flexisense.hciviocare.com.

Flexisense is a thin, flexible, bendable, sensor drone micro-electro-mechanical system capable of measuring direct force applied vertically on both its sides, shear force applied on its surface and 3D position and velocity of the object attached to it. The sensor is an autonomous, non-invasive, stand-alone unit, with its own rechargeable power supply, micro-controller and wireless communication unit. The drone can wirelessly connect with other drones, creating a network, in order to monitor an entire area. It can also connect with smartphones, tablet and computers, through an application which has also been developed, in order to transmit the data collected to the end user.

Flexisense is unaffected by bending, temperature, humidity and excess pressure, load and shear, and completely insulated, making it suitable for medical applications, wearable devices and on-body applications. The drone can be made in a plethora of shapes and sizes, to fit any application/situation. The drone has been designed to be used in insoles, in shoes, in cushions, seats, mattresses, saddles and any other wearable devices such as smart apparel and sports equipment.

Flexisense has application in every operation that a "fusion" force/pressure, shear and 3D position and velocity sensor is required. However, it was designed and developed specifically as a non-invasive medical sensor to be used in wearable devices, smart garments, training apparatus and for medical applications such as on-body, non-invasive, real time force, pressure, shear and 3D position and velocity measurements. For example, such a sensor can be invaluable for use in the monitoring of a person's gait providing data about the pressures applied on the foot, the interaction between shoe and foot and the forces applied in the system and the angles of the joints and posture position.

The Company concentrated its R&D efforts during early fiscal 2016 on the expansion of the commercial development of Flexisense and the second half of 2016 on seeking licensing partners for Flexisense and mattress application of the technologies, with conversations taking place with various industry partners. During fiscal 2016, the Company entered into an agreement with Carilex Medical Inc. a leading medical mattresses manufacturer. Under the terms of the agreement the Company received a technology access fee, and will receive certain staggered success fee payments as each commercialized product under the scope of the agreement is completed. In addition, there are product based royalty fees payable to the Company on a sliding scale based on production levels for all commercial products sold into the marketplace.

In addition, we have entered into several cooperative agreements with industry partners across several other areas of application for our technologies and we have customized prototypes under review with various commercial partners proposed for commercialization in fiscal 2018.

Flexisense Application: Diabetic Insole

The Company has developed a prototype for a smart insole measuring pressure and shear forces that can communicate wirelessly to smartphones and could be worn by diabetic patients to alert them to risky behavior and provide them and their clinicians with information to help prevent the diabetic foot ulcers that can ultimately result in amputation.

Many complications can be associated with diabetes. Diabetes disrupts the vascular system, affecting many areas of the body such as the eyes, kidneys, legs, and feet. People with diabetes are more prone to infection. They can also develop neuropathy (damaged nerves) or peripheral vascular disease (blocked arteries) of the legs. This can cause diminished feeling in the feet leading to unnoticed cuts, scratches, and tissue breakdown. This may result in ulceration and infection. Infection and foot ulceration, alone or in combination, often lead to amputation.

In terms of market size of the opportunity: foot complaints are the leading cause of hospitalization of people with diabetes and is estimated that 30% of all diabetics will develop a serious foot complaint at some time (http://www.who.int/topics/diabetes_mellitus/en/). By region, the North America diabetic foot ulcer therapeutics market dominated the global diabetic foot ulcer therapeutics market in revenue terms in 2016 and the trend is projected to continue throughout the forecast period. Revenue from the North America market is anticipated to increase at a CAGR of 10.8% over 2016–2024 to reach a market valuation of more than US$ 3,100 Million by 2024. (https://www.persistencemarketresearch.com/mediarelease/diabetic-foot-ulcer-therapeutics-market.asp)

It is widely understood that pressure and shear forces on the feet cause ulcerations and due to diabetic patients having neuropathy (resulting in loss of sensation in the feet), feet are not offloaded or taken care of appropriately.

It is very important for diabetics to take the necessary precautions to prevent all foot related injuries. Due to the consequences of neuropathy, daily observation of the feet is critical. Theoretically, if diabetes is well controlled and monitored it should be possible to avoid these foot problems. However, whilst clinical advice to diabetics is to 'mind their feet' and monitor them daily, they are not provided with a usable tool to measure the stresses and strains on their feet where there is some loss of sensation. This is what the insole intends to address.

The resulting product(s) will be a Class 1 medical device, depending on claims and disclaimers. While default alert settings would be provided, based on existing academic and clinical research, users would be encouraged to get their physician to set parameters.

The Company is not alone in recognizing the importance of measuring pressure on the feet of diabetics. Orpyx in Canada has launched a consumer product priced at $2,400, which requires an additional on-shoe component and a dedicated watch vs. HCi Viocare's fully integrated insole which could be marketed at <$500. A few other start-up companies (FeetMe, Sensoria) and research groups are working on diabetic foot monitoring insoles, but all only measure pressure, ignoring shear forces which can greatly impact ulceration, and use conversional pressure sensing (capacitive or resistive technology) which the Company feels may not be as reliable in the hot and humid environment of a shoe. Because HCi Viocare's technology measures all three forces (pressure and 2 horizontal shear forces) we are able to model with reasonable accuracy the calorific expenditure of the wearer, thereby potentially contributing to the diabetic patient's glucose management.

The Company is presently seeking licensing partners in respect of the diabetic insole application. The license partner could be any company marketing products to diabetics (e.g. blood glucose monitors and lancets) or wearable technologies company wanting to extend its healthcare reach (iHealth, Samsung) or foot specialist already catering to diabetic foot market (eg Dr. Scholl).

Flexisense Application: Medical gait analysis insoles

Orthotists, podiatrists, physiotherapists and prosthetists all require a good understanding of a patient's gait in order to diagnose biomechanical issues, provide appropriate rehabilitation and ensure appropriate alignment of the body when using orthoses (such as braces) or prosthetic limbs. Equally, researchers in these fields and biomedical engineering more generally are interested in the forces involved in gait and their impact on the body.

Academic and commercial researchers may have force plates at their disposal: metal plates built into the floor, which can capture the forces of a person walking or running over them. However, there are prohibitively priced (>$40,000) for most clinicians. There are therefore different systems on the market addressing clinicians and researchers:

·	optical gait analysis: whilst these can show movement very well, they do not yield any information on forces
·	pressure mats: these measure pressure but have a small surface meaning that one can only capture a snapshot of the gait

·	pressure sensing insoles: which can measure pressure more realistically over a larger distance

Presently we are aware of 3 devices that compete directly with the insole intended for clinical use only, each priced at in excess of $4,000: from Algeos (www.algeos.co.uk) which attaches sensors directly to the foot; and insoles from Tekscan (www.tekscan.com) , from Novel, (www.novel.de) and Moticon (www.moticon.de).

Management believes its medical insole would be unique in its ability to measure shear forces, and to operate for longer periods of time reliability and accurately due to limitations of the competing technologies (eg in humidity, when bent). Moreover, unlike the HCi Viocare prototype, existing insoles are not stand-alone, requiring ancillary componentry to communicate with the data capture unit and therefore making their use restricted to in-clinic. A cheaper, stand-alone insole could be given to patients to take away and record gait over time and over different surfaces.

The medical insole can also be expanded to become a combined 3D motion capture and gait analysis system for use by physiotherapists, orthotists, athletes and possibly in film and gaming.

Flexisense Application: Athletic insoles

Sports and fitness wearable devices have been in the market for more than 30 years. However, in the last 3 years the application of micro-electronics, wireless technology and the explosion of smartphones and mobile applications has revolutionized the market, with many established, as well as new, companies offering products applications for a wide range of sports.

Wearable wireless devices in the Sports, Fitness and Wellness market measure sports performance, daily activity, sleep patterns, and other related physical parameters. Another key factor that distinguishes this market is its consumer focus and that, unlike devices in the other healthcare markets, these devices usually do not require regulatory approval as a medical device.

The consumer market for wearable devices is exploding, and people appear to have an insatiable appetite for data to analyze their fitness and athletic performance. Nearly 50 million sports performance monitors were sold in 2014 and Worldwide revenue is forecast to reach $2.3 billion in 2017. http://cdn2.hubspot.net/hub/396065/file-2568104498-pdf/Blog_Resources/IHS-Wearable-Technology.pdf?t=1427903372862

Companies like Adidas-Salomon Ag, Nike Inc., Garmin, New Balance and Suunto invest millions of dollars every year for the development of wearable devices and material, and the market is booming as demand is ever increasing. The focus for most of these companies seems to be in the running shoes, apparel and equipment sector, as this sector is the fastest growing sports and fitness sector world-wide with billions of dollars of revenue every year. Under Armour has just launched its first smart shoe, monitoring only cadence.

The Company's sensor technology can be used in an insole or built into shoes to provide information to the wearer. It is the only pressure sensing technology that can work accurately in a warm and moist environment and with significant bending, like that experienced during running.

In keeping with the attractiveness of the market, there are a number of relatively new companies intending to launch insoles to give information to runners, together with coaching 'Apps'. Some of these measure only contact or movement (e.g., www.ambiorun.com) and others do measure pressure, usually not fully wireless/stand-alone (Medhab www.medhab.com; Arion www.ato-gear.com). Another competitor is Sensoria which markets a smart textile sock that measures pressure and pace. It also has a 'running coach' App. It requires an anklet to be worn, to house the battery and communication modules, and the socks require washing, potentially reducing their life span.

Note that the resistive or capacitive technologies used by competition struggle with bending and hot/humid environments and are therefore considered to be less reliable. Also, due to the cost associated with pressure sensing, competitors usually only have a small number of sensing points, limiting the value of the information. The Company's more cost effective sensing technology would permit a much greater number of points.

A further important differentiator from the competition is that the Company's sensor technology measures forces in three directions, giving not just plantar pressure information but also making the system capable of using industry accepted biomechanical modeling capabilities to project the impact on the knee of the wearer's running style. And the knee is an area of great focus for runners, who frequently experience injuries.

The athletic insoles could be coupled with other devices to give wearable performance information across a number of sports, including the high value tennis and golf markets. Golfers, for example would be able to link their swing (from an on-club sensor) to their weight displacement to optimize their performance. Currently on-racket or on-club sensors exist but fail to address this critical weight placement / foot force element for the athletes.

The Company is presently seeking licensing partners in respect of the athletic insole applications, with a number of discussions with market leaders in their fields ongoing and additional commercial prototypes under review.

Smart Mattress

Ulceration and skin (soft tissue) breakage is very common to people with tetraplegia or paraplegia and to most patients with limited movability that spend time in a bed, or in a wheelchair. It is caused by low continued pressure over time and/or high (peak) pressure points. The most commonly used method in a clinical environment, to avoid ulceration in such patients, is for a nurse to "turn" them, in better words; to change the position in which they lay in bed, frequently. This practice is supported by specialist therapeutic support surfaces (mattresses and overlays) to attempt to reduce pressure points. The more modern surfaces are powered air mattresses. There are different types of powered air mattresses, which can alternate pressure in their air cells on a pre-defined timetable.

In terms of market opportunity, hospitals are under tremendous pressure to address decubitus, particularly in the US where payers are moving away from covering "never events". Pressure ulcers affect a million patients in the USA alone each year and it costs the US healthcare system alone an est. $12 billion in direct treatment costs, not counting associated costs such as medical malpractice lawsuits;

Existing market solutions:

•

Adoption of pressure relieving overlays is increasing; these are generally not 'active' and merely made of a suitable material to reduce pressure, resulting in a lower cost; Whilst there is no direct clinical evidence for their effectiveness, there is a widespread belief and acceptance that they can reduce pressure ulcers;

•

Winncare's Axensor system is an example of an inflatable mattress with sections which goes through a standard cycle of in-/deflation to relieve pressure; these are increasingly common for high risk patients and are supplied by all leading therapeutic support surface manufacturers.

•

Israeli start-up Wellsense has the first pressure sensing mattress cover and their clinical evidence shows that the monitoring of pressure alone is already effective; however, it has low adoption because it is not breathable (which could aggravate ulcer formation) and it is costs >$3,000.

With the Company's sensor technology incorporated into mattresses and overlays, for which a prototype exists, technology licensees could develop a range of products with the following: lower production costs, sensors not affecting the properties of the mattresses, ability to measure shear in addition to pressure (shear forces being a recognized key contributor to ulceration).

Furthermore, with the sensor integrated into an inflatable mattress itself, we have developed a smart mattress that can respond intelligently to the pressure and shear data and inflate and deflate the mattress compartments automatically to reduce the risk of ulceration for patients, in between nursing interventions. This dynamic smart mattress adapts to the specific need of every patient and provides relief and adjustment only where and when is needed, maximizing the effectiveness of the treatment. This would be classed as a Class 1 medical device, and the license partner would need to pursue such registration prior to launch.

As noted above the Company has entered into an agreement with Carilex Medical Inc. a leading medical mattresses manufacturer where under the Company receives technology access fees and additional fees for each commercialized product under the scope of the agreement when completed. Further there are product based royalty fees payable to the Company on a sliding scale based on production levels for all commercial products sold into the marketplace.

Wheelchairs and medical chairs

The same technology as the Mattress can be used to provide pressure and shear monitoring integrated into wheelchair cushions and medical day-chairs to help prevent ulceration. This may be licensed to the same license partner as the mattress solutions.

Automotive

By incorporating the HCi Viocare sensor technology into automotive seating, professional drivers could be monitored automatically for posture, projected blood circulation, pressure and shear. Posture is important as back pain is a leading cause of absenteeism in the workplace, but in a driving environment, positioning can be an indicator of fatigue, a leading cause of accidents. Adoption of such technology could be driven by health and safety considerations and/or the insurance industry.

The Company is seeking partners in the automotive industry to discuss the potential of incorporating the technology into their vehicles.

SocketFit

The Company will build on the work done by Dr. Kapatos in developing a scanning device to determine the optimal shape of an amputee's socket, capturing the internal geometry and the biomechanical properties of the tissues in the residual limb. This SocketFit technology was acquired in 2014. The intention is to partner with a leading scanning provider or manufacturer in the P&O market, through a development and license agreement, to produce a socket system for use by prosthetists worldwide.

Market opportunity

The number of amputees world-wide is estimated to be 20 million, and for most amputees finding a well-fitted prosthesis is far from easy. Traditional methods of design, manufacture and fitting of a prosthetic socket are typically carried out by "artisan" techniques but unfortunately often result in ill-fitting devices that make wearing a prosthesis almost intolerable for a large number of amputees.

A prosthetic socket is a custom-made "cone" that connects the rest of the prosthesis (foot, shank and knee) to an amputee's residual limb. Sockets generally need to be replaced every other year, though more frequently in the initial stages after amputation when the residual limb can still change shape significantly. While many significant technological advances have been made with the design and manufacture of prosthetic components, such as electronic knee assemblies and feet, socket design has not kept up. Over the past 20 years a great deal of research has been undertaken to automate the process of socket design and manufacturing, but it has been met with limited success. Most sockets continue to be created with hand-sculpted plaster moulds made by the Prosthetist or a technician hours or days after examining the amputee. The result is that, typically, one in four sockets are discarded because of their poor fit.

Many prosthetists, (if not all), are frustrated by the lack of an objective method that would ensure an optimum fit of the socket. This 'need' for assistance instigated the advent of industrial sector technologies to be taken up in the field, even though these systems, in reality, lack the necessary 'ingredient' to allow the optimum socket to be produced. They merely attempt to replicate current practices in a digital manner (CAD-CAM systems), without taking into account the biomechanical or anatomical characteristics of the residual limb.

The key element of the project is work done by Dr. Christos Kapatos to improve the nature of the data used in socket modeling software. Finite element analysis (FEA) has been used widely in a variety of applications, including prosthetics. But its prosthetics applications have suffered from the fact that only external boundary data and limited information on the nature of the internal tissue was provided. The results were not promising. By including far more data on the nature of the internal anatomy as well as, for the first time ever (to our knowledge) data on the bio-mechanical properties of the tissue to the FEA, a system can be created that enables Prosthetists to build a socket that evenly distributes weight, provides enhanced comfort, and raises the bar across the industry on socket creation.

SocketFit is a digital system for assessing an amputee's residual limb and for the production of truly functional and comfortable prosthetic sockets. It takes account of the external and internal geometry of the amputee's stump, the biomechanical properties of each individual soft tissue layer i.e. skin, fat, muscle and bone, and the boundary and loading conditions of a complete prosthesis to generate a virtual 3D model of the residual limb. It is then possible to produce an accurate, functional and comfortable prosthetic socket.

By minimizing the time and cost of socket production and by reducing the number of faulty sockets (it has been reported that a quarter of all prostheses are currently rejected due to poor fit), there will be a reduction in costs incurred by health services and insurance companies worldwide as well as great benefits to the amputee.

The technology

The intended Socket-Fit device consists of three modules:

The Ring - a device to scan the residual limb and export data, which uses ultrasound technology.

The external geometry of the medium under examination, is acquired by the position data from the stepper instruments and the use of the rotary position sensors; as the ring moves vertically, spinning at the same time, the spring-supported arms comes in contact with the entire residual limb, mapping every detail and transmitting it to a PC.

The internal geometry is acquired with the use of the on-board ultrasound transducers. Information on the mechanical properties of the tissues has also been captured.

Data Tools – software to analyze and collate the data into intelligible information.

All the data are sent to the control box for onward transmission to the PC. Software generates a 3D image of the stump's external and internal geometry.

3.	Socket Modeling – FEA simulation FEA and optimization software generate the optimum design for the socket in order to obtain the best pressure distribution, and therefore the most comfortable prosthesis for the amputee.

The process to getting to an optimized socket shape is shown in figure 2 and a schematic of the system in figure 3.

Figure 2: Process map of system

Figure 3: Schematic of the system

The greatest value provided by the acquired SocketFit technology rests in the algorithms that transform the data captured by the ultrasound transducers on the Ring to sanitized, usable data about the biomechanical properties of the tissues scanned. Specifically, the algorithms use data derived from the scans to generate stress-strain curves for the tissue layers within the limb.

This data is then used by the FEA software to simulate pressures onto the residual limb, similar to those experienced when walking, for different shapes of sockets, until the ultimate shape is found – meaning, the shape that provides uniform pressure where needed and avoids known pain areas (eg bone) to create a socket designed to have superior comfort in use.

Current Status of SocketFit

We plan to first find a commercialization partner, to help fund and/or conduct the required research and development and to launch the product within two years of commencement of the proposed research and development. This is to minimize risk but also because the technology could be designed to (retro-)fit into the partners' existing product suite, minimizing effort. While the Company focuses attention on its immediately marketable Sensor Technology and its varying applications, any additional development work for SocketFit is currently on hold.

C.	Other technology opportunities

Blood flow visualization:

The Company has developed a proof of concept device that permits the visualization of peripheral blood flow. This could be incorporated into a smart 'mat' for the diagnosis and progression monitoring of diabetic foot conditions. Diabetic patients can suffer from reduced peripheral blood flow in their feet. This contributes to neuropathy but also prevents the healing of diabetic foot ulcers, which can lead to amputation. Such a mat could shift the monitoring of diabetic foot care to primary care, away from podiatry specialists, but also provide essential health information to podiatrists which they would otherwise not have. With a relatively low manufacturing cost, patients could even monitor their own condition at home. It is hoped the product would be prescribed/reimbursed.

Blood Flow and Oxygenation Monitoring System

Soft tissue ulceration caused by pressure (over time) is an unwanted complication of illness (such as diabetes), injury, severe physical disability (tetraplegia) or increasing frailty. Ulceration is a serious, life-threatening injury that breaks down the skin and underlying tissue. It is caused when an area of skin is placed under pressure, over time, which causes a restriction in blood flow leading to "tissue starvation" and full thickness tissue loss, breakage and exposure of bone, tendon and/or muscle.

Skin cancer, also known as melanoma, is a type of cancer that begins in the skin and can spread to other organs in the body, leading to fatality. Melanoma occurs when some cells in the skin begin to develop abnormally. The cause of this abnormality is not fully understood yet, however it is thought that exposure to ultraviolet (UV) light from natural or artificial sources may be partly responsible.

Blood oxygen delivery and blood carbon dioxide flow is the common factor which links these two conditions.

We are currently investigating and designing a method for use in measuring continuous blood flow and oxygenation of peripheral soft tissues based on Bolometric Imaging. A bolometric array camera (a thermal camera) and light (LEDs or Lasers) of one spectrum only; infrared. In this process we will artificially and locally increase the temperature of blood for a few milliseconds, repeating the procedure every few milliseconds, "marking" blood as it moves and thus making its flow imaging and monitoring possible by use of the thermal camera and dedicated image processing software. This method can be further enhanced by combining a bolometric array camera with a CCD camera.

Sleep apnoea device (BiPAP)

The company has developed an early prototype of a small, silent, portable bidirectional airway device to assist sufferers of sleep apnoea

Robotic surgical assist

•

Working (miniature) prototype of robotic device to assist in orthopedic surgery, reducing number of staff in OR; uses proprietary sensor technology also used in Digital Health products

The 'Holy Grail' of prosthetic sockets, this technology would utilize our proprietary pressure and shear sensors to signal a smart material inside the socket to adapt its shape to the wearer's gait and daily fluctuations in the size and shape of the stump.

Photo acoustic imaging

•

The team is exploring a theory that would remove the barriers currently preventing the human adoption of photo acoustic imaging, producing a relatively low-cost non-contact, non-invasive methodology. This would be a substantial project but with the potential to transform medical imaging.

HCi Viocare Technologies - UltraMyoGragram (UMG)

A small, very low cost Ultramyogram sensor (UMG) that can (uniquely) provide proportional muscle contraction monitoring, as well as type of contraction and joint angle recognition, remaining unaffected by sweat, vibration and external noise has been designed. The sensor will have excellent signal to noise ratio, will not require complicated signal processing algorithms and it will have high repeatability and linearity.

The UMG sensor is specifically designed to provide proportional control on prosthetic, orthotic and exoskeleton (both civilian and combat) applications and devices, and can operate in harsh environments (humid, hot and e-noisy) with ease.

A comparison with existing myographic sensors is presented in the following table, clearly showing the advantages of the envisioned UMG technology over all other currently existing myographic technologies.

HCi Viocare Technologies – In-tyre Data and Power Transmission System

A new, high speed, wireless data transmission system for in-tyre use has been designed. The system utilizes the widely used RF protocols, with a signal boosting circuit, and takes advantage of the tyre's features to amplify and boost the signal. This technology removes the need for sensor wires getting in and out of the wheel and tyre, wires that are a source of frequent failures, and provides wireless capabilities to most in-tyre sensors and electrical equipment.

At the same time, following similar principles with the data transmission system described above, a wireless energy harvesting system for use within a tyre has been designed. The system is a hybrid energies generator that converts the values of energies abundant inside a tyre to electricity, continues powering up all electronic equipment in the tyre, while the vehicle is in motion.

Passive Robotic Leg Support System for Orthopedic Surgery

Regardless of the current advances in orthopedic medical technology, currently no single device dedicated to the basic function of holding and stabilizing a limb during surgery exists.

A passive robotic system for limb stabilization has been designed to address the above issue. The system is a type of active force amplification robotic platform. It has a number of actuators and a rotary plate which can rotate clockwise and/or anti- anticlockwise. The platform safely and accurately supports and holds the leg of the patient under surgery. Moreover, it has a simple control mechanism attached to the platform, opposite to the area where the leg is attached, containing force transducers for monitoring the direction of force exerted and for controlling the movement of the device when the surgeon needs to safely readjust the position of the leg.

The surgeon moves uses the simple control mechanism to reposition the limb and the robotic table follows the movement of the surgeon and self-locks itself in position, immediately after the surgeon removes his hand from the control. When the device locks, it consumes zero energy to maintain position.

The device will be attached to a surgical table/bed and used as a stand-alone unit. The device could also be used for training and education purposes to track and record the position of a limb and to simulate operation procedures.

Micro valve-less, motorless miniature pump

A micro valve-less, motor-less, pump the size of a fingernail, has been designed. Combining a number of micro pumps in parallel or in series, or both, micro-pump arrays can be created, not larger than a few centimeters, that can provide substantial airflow and pressure to inflate and/or deflate a medical mattress in minutes, or even a car tyre. It could also be used in micro BiPAP and cPAP devices or any system/device that requires active air in-flow or out-flow.

The technology is low cost, low power, low noise and can be easily combined with existing power-harnessing systems. Its life expectancy is ten-fold of this of traditional pumps and the micro pump has no moving parts

Blockchain based system for client records

The Company has commenced development of its own proprietary Blockchain based system for handling sensitive client records in its flagship Prosthetics and Orthotics clinic in Scotland. Furthermore, the team plans to develop a proprietary Blockchain based system for handling and storing the data produced from the medical applications of its Flexisense^TM technology.

D.	Intellectual property

We have acquired exclusive ownership of the innovative medical device 'SocketFit'. Dr. Kapatos in conjunction with another development company had prior filed a patent application which has been abandoned. Significant development of the technology has been undertaken since the filing of the abandoned patent and, after corresponding with our patent agents, it was deemed in the best interests of the Company not to revive the old patent, but to apply for new – multiple patents on the technology, and use the old patent as background technology, as new innovations have sprung out of the initial patent and additional fields of application have been identified.

We have acquired all rights and interest in and to the background IPR for a developing technology now known as "Flexisense". Dr. Kapatos has conceived and been working on various applications of Flexisense including a Smart Insole System which is believed to be a state-of-the-art, pressure and shear pressure sensing insole with an incorporated real-time global display application and a fully featured support web-space that tells the user and his podiatrist/physiotherapist when inappropriate or dangerous conditions are developing on the feet. The product is being designed to mitigate diabetic foot complications, such as ulceration, infection and amputation, as well as improve the total health of a person with diabetes, by incorporating the readings from the insole system to a specialized web-space that will help the user monitor not just the health of his feet but also his diabetes by looking after his diet and exercise. The Company has also identified various other applications. Presently we have filed three patents in the UK in respect of this IPR:

British Patent Application No. 1421952.1, HCI VIOCARE TECHNOLOGIES LTD. (abandoned December 2015)

- The first patent based on development of the "Insole" IP relates to the Company's pressure sensing system technology, which supports the development of very low cost, flexible and scalable pressure sensing devices in a range of sectors including wearable devices, Prosthetics & Orthotics, medical devices (e.g. for the diabetic foot), and automotive health and safety.

British Patent Application No. 1421950.5, HCI VIOCARE TECHNOLOGIES LTD. (abandoned December 2015)

- The second patent, also based on additional development of the "Insole" IP relates to the Company's ground-breaking shear sensing system technology, which is supports the development of low cost, flexible and scalable sensor systems in a range of sectors including wearable devices, medical devices (e.g. diabetic foot), Prosthetics & Orthotics and automotive health and safety

British Patent Application No. 1421953.9, HCI VIOCARE TECHNOLOGIES LTD. (abandoned December 2015)

- The third patent application also follows additional in-house development of the "Insole" intellectual property (IP) and relates to pioneering low-cost, portable motion capture and gait analysis technology, which has applications in a range of sectors, including athletic wearable devices, physiotherapy, orthotics and potentially also gaming and film.

International Patent Application No. PCT/GB2015/053785, HCI VIOCARE TECHNOLOGIES LTD.

On December 10, 2015 the Company through its subsidiary HCi Viocare Technologies Ltd. filed an international application according to the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) which received a PCT application number PCT/GB2015/053785. The filed international patent covers over 140 countries around the world. The new patent builds on the company's three UK patent applications filed in December 2014 (as set out above), with further advances made to the sensor systems, and a wider range of applications in products that touch people's everyday lives.

The Company has drafted and performed preliminary patent searches on two new innovations during fiscal 2016 and 2017, with intent to progress into full patent applications in 2018.

E.	Regulatory Requirements

The Company's business model of licensing technology to commercialization partners means that it is the partner, who will be the manufacturer of the eventual products and therefore subjected to the regulations of manufacturing and marketing devices. However, as the Company will support its licensing partner in the development of the final products it has ensured that in understands the eventual requirements, and has identified suitable consultants to provide support, where required.

The products are expected to be marketed worldwide, with an initial commercialization in Europe and the USA, depending on the partner. Their regulatory systems are highlighted below, together with the anticipated implications for the products that may result from our technologies.

Europe

Products that will be marketed in Europe will be required to comply with the EU Directives regarding medical devices, which apply to all EU member states. The basic relevant EU Directive which applies to our case is Directive 93/42/EEC (as amended by 2007/47/EC) regulating medical devices, as well as Directive 98/68/EEC that requires the manufacturers to place CE marking on their products to demonstrate compliance with the above regulations.

The Directive on medical devices also lays down rules in Annex IX for the classification of devices based essentially on the potential risks involved, with class III devices having the highest potential risk and class I device the lowest.

With reference to the stated Rules to determine a product's classification, the anticipated classification of the products that could arise from the Company's technology are listed below. It is important to note that classification is determined only at the stage of a final product and with reference to its features and the claims made by the manufacturer. Hence, there classifications are dependent on the decisions of the license partner and may be subject to change:

·	Diabetic and Medical Insoles: Class I
·	SocketFit: Class IIa – because of the use of ultrasound, which applies energy to the body. This is the usual classification for imaging devices.

·	Photoacoustic imaging: Class IIa – because energy is applied to the body
·	Blood Flow visualization: Class IIs – because energy is applied to the body

·	BiPAP: Class IIb – as it is relied upon for breathing

The Notified Body of the country in which the products are marketed will need to notified by the manufacturer, and their specific processes for registration and audit will need to be adhered to.

USA Regulations

Medical devices are subject to the general controls of the Federal Food Drug & Cosmetic (FD&C) Act which are contained in the final procedural regulations in Title 21 Code of Federal Regulations Part 800-1200 (21 CFR Parts 800 - 1299). These controls are the baseline requirements that apply to all medical devices necessary for marketing, proper labeling and monitoring its performance once the device is on the market.

Much like in Europe, the license partner will be required to determine how FDA may classify our devices - which one of the three classes the device may fall into. Unless exempt, FDA will classify our devices. Classification identifies the level of regulatory control that is necessary to assure the safety and effectiveness of a medical device. Most importantly, the classification of the device will identify, unless exempt, the marketing process (either premarket notification [510(k)] or premarket approval (PMA)) the manufacturer must complete in order to obtain FDA clearance/approval for marketing.

The Company will need to review the development of data and/or information necessary to submit a marketing application, and to obtain FDA clearance to market. For some [510(k)] submissions and most PMA applications, clinical performance data is required to obtain clearance to market. In these cases, conduct of the trial must be done in accord with FDA's Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) regulation, in addition to marketing clearance.

1.3 OUR CLINICS

A.	Market and Industry

It is estimated that the global health market is growing by 6-8% per annum, which suggests it will double in the next 10 years. The global Orthopedic Prosthetics market seems to be following the same pattern, as it is growing rapidly, and is projected to exceed US$ 4.5 billion by 2017, according to the 2011 Global Data's report "Orthotics and Prosthetics - Global Pipeline Analysis, Competitive Landscape and Market Forecasts to 2017".

Demand for orthopedic prosthetics products is driven by a multitude of factors, including:

growing elderly population: The percentage of people aged 65 and older will increase at a rate three times that of younger generations. Subsequently, the frequency of vascular diseases and diabetes – diseases that often lead to amputation – will increase considerably;

causes of amputation: the most common causes of amputation are prosperity diseases related to diseases, such as diabetes and vascular diseases. Accidents account for only 26% of all amputations in developed countries. Indicatively, it is estimated that the number of people with diabetes worldwide (382 million as of November 2013) is expected to reach 592 million by 2035. As a result of the general increase in diabetes and vascular diseases, the number of amputations in the western world is also likely to continue to increase;

·	rising incidence of degenerative joint diseases, such as osteoporosis and arthritis, and increasing numbers of sports injuries;
·	social demands: the growing desire of more and more disabled individuals – especially young people – to become independent, lead active lifestyles, and go about their daily routines without outside help;

·	renewal: the lifetime of traditional prosthetic devices used by previous generations is three to five years. Also prosthetic sockets require replacement after three to six months;
·	market niche: reorganization of healthcare services has led to increased pressure to lower costs within the health sector, which in turn increases the demand for the efficiency of the solutions chosen; and

the growing demand for orthopedic prosthetics products is also driving the development of innovative medical devices forward. Advancements in biological science and stem cells technology, as well as rapid technological advances in medical science and development of durable and improved materials and implants have led to large number of people requiring physical rehabilitation, thus contributing to the market's growth.

Overall, the market is set to grow significantly as the incidence of amputation increases. The number of amputees living in developing countries is estimated by the World Health Organization to have reached 300 million with up to 95% lacking access to prosthetic devices, thereby creating an increasing consumer base in need for affordable and reliable orthopedic prosthetics products and services that will improve the amputees' long-term health and well-being.

Current solutions are inadequate, however, as state-of-the-art solutions from the US and Europe are cost-prohibitive, while low-cost devices run the risk of poor quality and/or unreliable performance. Especially in low-income areas and in developing countries, where the P&O industry is highly fragmented and poorly organized, with significant disparities in terms of clinical infrastructure, provision of medical rehabilitation and assistive devices, demographics (such as gender and/or socioeconomic inequalities), and funding.

Clinics:

On January 15, 2014, we formed our other wholly-owned Scottish subsidiary, HCi Viocare Clinics UK Limited with registration number SC467486 ("Viocare Clinics"), with the intent to create the first state-of-the-art chain of Prosthetic and Orthotic (P&O) and diabetic foot clinics with global reach, while capitalizing on the aforementioned internally developed technologies. Viocare Clinics will establish and/or acquire movement rehabilitation clinics, limb fitting centers and diabetic foot centers, in the UK, Europe and the Middle East, initially. These centers will offer standardized and specialized rehabilitation and consultation services for the physically impaired, as well as for their families, friends, their workplaces and companies that employ or work with them. Some of the sections that will be covered by the centers are:

·	Prosthetic rehabilitation;
·	Orthotic rehabilitation;

·	Diabetic foot;
·	Foot congenital disorder and musculoskeletal defects;

·	Movement assisting devices;
·	Gait analysis;

·	Pediatric movement analysis and consultation;
·	Living and working spaces design and consultation for people with disabilities;

·	Walking training and body strengthening following amputation, stroke or accident;
·	Phantomlimb syndrome consultation;

·	Workshops and educational and training programs; and
·	Expert opinion mediation with insurance companies and organizations.

The primary customers are the physically impaired:

·	Amputees;
·	People with spasticity;

·	People with walking difficulties;
·	People with genetic abnormalities;

·	People with deformities;
·	People with musculoskeletal pain;

·	People with diabetes;
·	People with flat foot problems or just pain caused by long working hours or hard labor; and

·	Companies or organizations that employ or work with people with disabilities.

However, the market is not limited to these people; our customers will be families with children with disabilities and businesses that employ disabled persons.

Viocare Clinics operates in accordance with the standard mandated by the British Association of Prosthetist Orthotists and the International Society of Prosthetics and Orthotics.

Glasgow Clinic

·	The private practice of William Spence, WD Spence Prosthetics Ltd was acquired in June 2014, a profitable venture that was established in 2006, operating part-time with borrowed premises;

·	New premises of 5,300 square ft were secured in Spring 2015, to increase the capacity of the clinic, provide an on-site workshop to improve turnaround times and also to house our R&D staff, thereby facilitating the exchange of ideas;

·	The clinic was refurbished and reopened in September 2015 and is currently being actively marketed, with patient lead coming via:

-	Personal injury solicitors (road traffic and workplace accidents)

-	Word of mouth or internet searches

-	Social media marketing

-	Print advertisement

·	Due to the high quality care of the National Health Service, the market for private P&O provision is small, however, the clinic is the only private P&O clinic in the whole of Scotland;

·	It attracts patients from England also, where the market leader is Dorset Orthopedics (owned by Otto Bock) with a number of full-service and satellite clinics. However, provision in the North continues to be very limited.

The Glasgow clinic has completed its first full year of operations since relocation to a larger state of the art faculty in fiscal 2016. We are only beginning to establish a presence in the UK market. The Company anticipates an aggressive marketing program in fiscal 2018 in order to allow for year over year growth into fiscal 2019. We expect this program to focus on the clinic's high level of service and facility benefits so that we can become more well known in the UK market.

Competition

Hanger (www.hanger.com) dominates the prosthetic and orthotic clinic market in the USA, with over 1,300 clinicians across over 740 clinics. However, in the rest of the world, provision of P&O services is extremely fragmented. Otto Bock, the market leading manufacturer of prosthetic components and vertically integrated to also provide clinical services at their headquarters and through clinics that have been acquired over time, focusing on Northern, Western Europe. Ossur, the Icelandic company which has roughly 20% of the P&O componentry market, has also expanded into clinic in Northern Europe.

The Company's focus is on areas that are under-served both in terms of capacity and in the quality of service. Competition varies location by location ranging from the very fragmented to the very concentrated.

The Viocare clinics will seek to differentiate through high quality care, staff trained to British and International standards, modern systems and processes and a wide range of products from low- to high end. They will also provide a more holistic suite of services, to include physiotherapy, mental health and lifestyle rehabilitation. Also, our scientific team will lead the technological diversification of the clinics, thereby setting them apart from the competition. We will capitalize on our Scientific Board's vast network of connections to attract customers from neighboring nations and will seek cooperation with global Medical Tourism operators.

C.	Trademarks

National Trademark (Greece)

On March 18, 2015 the Company entered into a Trademark Assignment and Conveyance Agreement ("Trademark Assignment") with its CEO, President and Director, Mr. Sotirios Leontaritis in respect of the national trademark "viocare" No. 223133 registered for protection in classes 10, 12 and 44 in Greece.

The aforementioned trademark was granted to Mr. Leontaritis on October 11, 2013 and is valid for a period of 10 years from the date of grant. On June 5, 2015, the Trademark Assignment was filed with the Greek Trademarks office for processing. The assignment of the trademark became effective August 4, 2015. Mr. Leontaritis received no compensation for the Trademark Assignment.

National Trademark (USA)

On April 8, 2016 the Company filed two applications with the US Trademark Office which received the filing nos. 86969716 and 86969718 for the registration of trademark FLEXI SENSE and FLEXISENSE, respectively, in classes 9, 10, 12 and 25. The registration of said trademarks is pending due to the Office Actions filed on July 26, 2016 against the registration of both the above trademarks in class 9. The Company was in correspondence with the Office Examiner and arguments were underway. At the end the Company will not use class 9 in the United States.

Further to the above, the Company received an opposition letter from the company "Grupo Flexi de Leon S.A." against the registration of Company's trademarks FLEXI SENSE and FLEXISENSE in class 25 as well as the registration or any use of mark "FLEXI" by the Company. The Company was in correspondence with Grupo Flexi de Leon S.A. for an amicable settlement. At the end the Company will not use class 25 in the United States.

CTM

On May 13, 2014 the Company filed an application with the Office for Harmonization in the Internal Market (OHIM) which received the filing no. 012870754 for the registration of the individual figurative trademark "viocare" for protection in classes 10,12 and 44 within the European Union. The CTM is valid until its expiration/renewal on 13.05.2024.

D.	Regulations for P&O Clinics

The operation of our clinics will be subject to, and must comply with, the respective country's government regulations. Given that we presently only have one operating clinic, located in Glasgow, Scotland, UK, we are currently most interested in the respective applicable regulations in that jurisdiction. As we determine to establish clinics in other jurisdictions we will be required to understand and be compliant with the laws in those respective jurisdictions in which we intend to operate.

Scotland

The Health and Social Work Professions Order 2001, made under section 60 of the Health Act 1999, established the UK Health & Care Professions Council (HCPC) that regulates, among others, prosthetists/orthotists in the UK:

-	according to the interpretation set out in Schedule 3, "relevant professions means arts therapists; chiropodists; clinical scientists; dietitians; medical laboratory technicians; occupational therapists; orthoptists; paramedics; physiotherapists; prosthetists and orthotists; radiographers; and speech and language therapists";

-	according to article 3, par. 1, the Council is responsible for setting out "the standards of education, training, conduct and performance for members of the relevant professions and to ensure the maintenance of those standards";
-	according to article 5, "the Council shall establish and maintain a register of members of the relevant professions";

-	the HCPC sets out for all registrants standards of conduct, performance and ethics, and standards for CPD, as well as standards of proficiency for prosthetists/orthotists specifically

2.	The Health and Care Professions Council (Constitution) Order 2009 which sets out the composition of the Council (as amended by the Health and Care Professions Council (Constitution) Order 2014);

The Regulation of Care (Scotland) Act of 2001 established the Scottish Commission for the Regulation of Care ('the Care Commission'), and set out the care services that it will regulate, i.e. all adult, child and independent healthcare services in Scotland, one of which independent healthcare services is 'independent clinics'. As of April 1, 2011, the work of the Care Commission passed to a new body, the Care Inspectorate. Regulation of independent healthcare, including regulation of independent clinics, has passed to Healthcare Improvement Scotland. Healthcare Improvement Scotland is currently responsible for regulating independent hospitals, voluntary hospices, and private psychiatric hospitals. Regulation of independent clinics, independent medical agencies and independent ambulance services has not yet commenced. The Scottish Government consulted on the future arrangements for regulation of independent healthcare services, including the definition and scope of the services that should be regulated last year and are currently considering the way forward.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

An investment in our securities should be considered highly speculative due to various factors, including the nature of our business and the present stage of our development. An investment in our securities should only be undertaken by persons who have sufficient financial resources to afford the total loss of their investment. In addition to the usual risks associated with investment in a business, the following is a general description of significant risk factors which should be considered. You should carefully consider the following material risk factors and all other information contained in this Annual Report before deciding to invest in our common stock. If any of the following risks occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. Additional risks and uncertainties we do not presently know or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business, financial condition or operating results.

Risks Associated with our Business

Implications of being an emerging growth company

As a company with less than $1 billion in revenue during our last fiscal year, we qualify as an "emerging growth company" as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act, and we may remain an emerging growth company until December 31, 2018, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. For so long as we remain an emerging growth company, we are permitted and intend to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure and other requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. In particular, in this annual report, we have provided only two years of audited financial statements and have not included all of the executive compensation related information that would be required if we were not an emerging growth company. Accordingly, the information contained herein may be different than the information you receive from other public companies in which you hold stock.

We have a limited business history and have losses that we expect to continue into the future. If the losses continue we will have to suspend operations or cease functioning.

We were incorporated on March 26, 2007, and have commenced our proposed business operations after a change in business focus in fiscal 2013. To date we have earned minimal revenues, and gross profit of $225,564 in fiscal 2017, which has not been sufficient to cover our operational overheads. Our net loss since inception is $34,736,633, While we have existing operations and have commenced revenue generating operations, we do not have revenues sufficient to meet our ongoing overhead and have no significant assets other than fixed assets and cash on hand. We have yet to generate positive earnings and there can be no assurance that we will ever operate profitably. We have a limited operating history, upon which an evaluation of our future success or failure can be made. Prior to completion of the development stage, we anticipate that we will incur increased operating expenses without realizing any revenues. We therefore expect to incur significant losses into the foreseeable future. If our business plan is not successful and we are not able to operate profitably, then our stock may become worthless and investors may lose all of their investment in our company.

Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon:

•	our ability to find profitable markets in which to operate our P&O total rehabilitation clinics and launch commercial products derived from our technologies;
•	our ability to generate revenues; and
•	our ability to manage research, development and costs of operations.

While we believe that our business plan has merit, there can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve any of the above and be successful in our future planned operations, and if our losses continue we will have to suspend operations or cease functioning.

Our limited operating history may make it difficult for you to evaluate the success of our business to date and to assess our future viability.

While we were incorporated in 2007 we commenced operations in our chosen field of business focus in fiscal 2013. We have commenced revenue generating operations in our two targeted fields of operation, however, neither revenue stream is presently sufficient to meet our operational overheads. We will require further capital and additional expansion of our areas of business focus in order to achieve profitable operations. While we are operating a successful P&O clinic in Glasgow, Scotland we have not yet demonstrated our ability to successfully franchise our "P&O Clinics concept" or open additional clinics following our flagship location. In addition, we have not yet successfully commercialized any of our developed technologies. We are currently working with industry partners towards the presentation of products based on our technologies to the marker. Consequently, any predictions you make about our future success or viability may not be as accurate as they could be if we had a longer operating history demonstrating successful operations across all our areas of business focus.

In addition, as a new business, we may encounter unforeseen expenses, difficulties, complications, delays and other known and unknown factors. We will need to transition from a company with a research and development focus to a company capable of supporting commercial activities. We may not be successful in such a transition.

While we have entered into agreements with a handful of licensing partners, we have not yet introduced commercial, saleable products into the market, and may never have saleable products.

We have only recently entered into preliminary licensing agreements with commercial partners with a goal of bringing commercial products to market. As yet we have not introduced any commercial products with these partners. Further, many of our products require additional research and development. We will also need to develop a market for our products if our commercial partners do not have an established marketing channel. There can be no assurance that we will successfully find commercial partners, market our products or complete our research and development of new products.

If healthcare professionals do not adopt our products in sufficient numbers or as rapidly as we anticipate, our operating results will be harmed.

The success of any of our products which we may develop will depend heavily on acceptance by healthcare professionals who will prescribe and recommend our products, and our failure to maintain a high level of confidence by key healthcare professionals in our products could adversely affect our business.

Consumers may not use our services, and thus we may never become profitable.

Our products represent a significant change from traditional diabetes treatment, and patients may be reluctant to accept them, or may not find them preferable to conventional treatment. In addition, patients may not comply with recommended treatment guidelines which could compromise the effectiveness of their treatment. Our success will depend upon the rapid acceptance of our products by a large number of potential patients to whom we intend to actively market. Market acceptance will depend in part upon the recommendations of prosthetists and orthotists, as well as other factors including effectiveness, safety, reliability, improved treatment aesthetics and greater comfort and hygiene compared to conventional prosthetic-orthotic products. Furthermore, consumers may not respond to our direct marketing campaigns or we may be unsuccessful in reaching our target audience. If consumers prove unwilling to adopt our products as rapidly or in the numbers that we anticipate, our operating results will be harmed.

If the manufacturers of our products encounter problems or delays in the manufacturing process, our ability to generate revenue will be limited.

We intend to rely on third parties for our manufacturing process if we determine to manufacture and market our products directly. Our rapid growth may exceed the capacity of these manufacturers to produce our products in sufficient quantities to support our growth. In the event of delivery delays or shortages of our products, our business and growth prospects may be harmed.

The manufacturers of our products may encounter difficulties in scaling up production to meet demand, including:

·	problems involving production yields;
·	shortages of key manufacturing equipment;

·	shortages of qualified personnel; and
·	failure to develop new software processes.

If demand for our products exceeds manufacturing capacity, we could develop a substantial backlog of customer orders. If our manufacturers are unable to establish and maintain larger-scale manufacturing capabilities, our ability to generate revenue will be limited and our reputation in the marketplace would be damaged.

If we do not enhance our product offerings, either through the acquisition of or investment in new and complementary technologies, products or businesses, or our research and development efforts, we may be unable to compete effectively.

Our success depends in part on our ability to continually enhance and broaden our product offerings in response to changing customer demands, competitive pressures and technologies, and our ability to increase our market share. Accordingly, we expect to consider opportunities to acquire or make investments in other technologies, products and businesses that could enhance our capabilities, complement our current technology, or expand the breadth of our markets or customer base. Acquisitions and strategic investments involve numerous risks, including:

·	problems assimilating the purchased technologies, products or business operations;
·	issues maintaining uniform standards, procedures, controls and policies;

·	unanticipated costs associated with the acquisition or strategic investment;
·	diversion of management's attention from our core business;

·	adverse effects on existing business relationships with third-party distributers, suppliers and customers;
·	risks associated with entering new markets in which we have limited experience;

·	our ability to obtain regulatory approvals to market new products; and
·	potential loss of key employees of acquired businesses.

While we are working on complementary products to expand our product portfolio, currently our sole commitment is for the development of our Flexisense technology. We do not know if we will be able to successfully complete any further acquisitions and/or product development, or whether we will be able to successfully integrate any acquired business, product or technology into our business or retain any key personnel, suppliers or distributors. Our ability to successfully grow through acquisitions depends upon our ability to identify, negotiate, complete and integrate suitable acquisitions and to obtain any necessary financing. If we are unable to integrate any acquired technology, products or business effectively, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Furthermore, research and development efforts may require a substantial investment of time and resources before we are adequately able to determine the commercial viability of a new product, technology, material or other innovation. In addition, even if we are able to successfully develop enhancements or new generations of our products, these enhancements or new generations of products may not produce net sales in excess of the costs of development and they may be quickly rendered obsolete by changing customer preferences or the introduction by our competitors of products embodying newer technologies or features.

Issues related to the quality and safety of our products, packaging or sterilization could cause a product recall resulting in harm to our reputation and negatively impact our operating results.

Issues related to quality and safety of products, packaging or sterilization could jeopardize our image and reputation. Negative publicity related to these types of concerns, whether valid or not, might negatively impact demand for our products, or cause production and delivery disruptions. We may need to recall products if they become unfit for use.

Our business exposes us to risks of product liability claims, and we may incur substantial expenses if we are sued for product liability.

Medical devices involve an inherent risk of product liability claims. We may be held liable if any product we develop or any product that uses or incorporates any of our technologies causes injury or is otherwise found unsuitable. Although we intend to continue to maintain product liability insurance, adequate insurance may not be available on acceptable terms and may not provide adequate coverage against potential liabilities. A product liability claim, regardless of its merit or eventual outcome, could result in significant legal defense costs. Costs associated with these potential claims would increase our expenses, and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Software defects may be discovered in our products which would damage our ability to sell our products, our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Our systems will incorporate sophisticated computer software. Complex software frequently contains errors, especially when first introduced. Because our products are designed to be used to perform complex interventional procedures, we expect that physicians and hospitals will have an increased sensitivity to the potential for software and other defects. We cannot assure you that our software will not experience errors or performance problems in the future. If we experience software errors or performance problems, we would likely also experience:

	•	loss of revenue;
	•	increase in reportable adverse events to applicable authorities;
	•	delay in market acceptance of our products;
	•	damage to our reputation;
	•	additional regulatory filings;
	•	product recalls;
	•	increased service or warranty costs; and/or
	•	product liability claims relating to the software defects.

We may fail to receive positive clinical results for our products in development that require clinical trials, and even if we receive positive clinical results, we may still fail to receive the necessary clearance or approvals to market our products.

In the development of new products or new indications for, or modifications to, existing products, we may conduct or sponsor clinical trials. Clinical trials are expensive and require significant investment of time and resources. Clinical trials are subject to regulations for clinical studies in each respective country and, failure to comply with such regulations, including, but not limited to, failure to obtain adequate consent of subjects, failure to adequately disclose financial conflicts, or failure to report data or adverse events accurately, could result in fines, penalties, and/or suspension of trials.

Our business may be harmed by technological and therapeutic changes, or the demand for our services could be diminished by the development of alternative treatments. Future innovations could make our inventions obsolete.

Our success will depend, in part, on continued demand for products that will incorporate our inventions. Changes in technology or customer requirements could render these inventions obsolete or unmarketable.

We will rely on information technology systems for accounting and finance, inventory management, engineering, distribution and other functions, and to maintain our research and development data. If such adopted information technology systems fail to adequately perform these functions, or if we experience an interruption in their operation, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

The efficient operation of our business will be dependent on our information technology systems which we intend to develop. We will rely on our information technology systems to effectively manage:

·	sales and marketing, accounting and financial functions;
·	order entry, order fulfillment and inventory replenishment processes;

·	engineering tasks; and
·	our research and development data.

The failure of our intended information technology systems to perform as we anticipate, or our failure to effectively implement new systems, could disrupt our business and product development and could result in decreased sales, increased overhead costs, excess inventory and product shortages, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, our information technology systems are vulnerable to damage or interruption from:

·	tornado, earthquake, fire, flood and other natural disasters;
·	terrorist attacks and attacks by computer viruses or hackers;

·	power loss; and
·	network failure of computer systems, Internet, telecommunications or data.

Any such interruption could have material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our success depends in part on our proprietary technology and if we are unable to successfully enforce our intellectual property rights, our competitive position may be harmed.

Our success will depend in part on our ability to maintain existing intellectual property and to obtain and maintain further intellectual property protection for our products, in the U.K., Europe, the U.S.A., and in other countries. Our inability to do so could harm our competitive position. We do not currently have any granted patents related to our technology and our current technology could be at risk if we successfully obtain patent protection. While we have applied for patents for various products based on our IPR, there is no assurance we will be successful in obtaining these patents. We will rely on our IP portfolio of future patent applications to protect a large part of our intellectual property and our competitive position. However, our future patent filings may not issue as patents. Additionally, any patents issued to us may be challenged, invalidated, held unenforceable, circumvented, or may not be sufficiently broad to prevent third parties from producing competing products similar in design to our products. In addition, protection afforded by foreign patents may be more limited than that provided under U.S. patents and intellectual property laws.

We rely on confidentiality agreements that could be breached and may be difficult to enforce which could have a material adverse effect on our business and competitive position.

Our policy is to enter into agreements relating to the non-disclosure of confidential information with third parties, including our contractors, consultants, advisors and research collaborators, as well as into agreements that purport to require the disclosure and assignment to us of the rights to the ideas, developments, discoveries and inventions of our employees and consultants while we employ them. However, these agreements can be difficult and costly to enforce. Moreover, to the extent that our contractors, consultants, advisors and research collaborators apply or independently develop intellectual property in connection with any of our projects, disputes may arise as to the proprietary rights to this type of information. If a dispute arises, a court may determine that the right belongs to a third party, and enforcement of our rights can be costly and unpredictable. In addition, we rely on trade secrets and proprietary know-how that we will seek to protect in part by confidentiality agreements with our employees, contractors, consultants, advisors or others. Despite the protective measures we employ, we still face the risk that:

	•	these agreements may be breached;
	•	these agreements may not provide adequate remedies for the applicable type of breach; or
	•	our trade secrets or proprietary know-how will otherwise become known.

Any breach of our confidentiality agreements or our failure to effectively enforce such agreements would have a material adverse effect on our business and competitive position.

The medical device industry is characterized by extensive litigation over patents and other intellectual property rights and we could become subject to litigation that could be costly, result in the diversion of management's time and efforts, require us to pay damages, and/or prevent us from marketing our existing or future products.

We may be the subject of patent or other litigation in the future. An adverse determination in a patent suit in any litigation or interference proceeding to which we may become a party could subject us to significant liabilities. An adverse determination of this nature could also put our patents, when granted, at risk of being invalidated or interpreted narrowly or require us to seek licenses from third parties. Licenses may not be available on commercially reasonable terms or at all, in which event our business would be materially adversely affected. We may also receive letters from third parties drawing our attention to their patent rights. While we do not believe that we infringe any valid and enforceable rights which have been brought to our attention, there may be other more pertinent rights of which we are presently unaware. If we infringe the patents or proprietary rights of other parties, our ability to grow our business will be severely limited. The defense and prosecution of intellectual property suits, interference proceedings and related legal and administrative proceedings could result in substantial expense to us and significant diversion of effort by our technical and management personnel.

Extensive and changing government regulation of the healthcare industry may be expensive to comply with and exposes us to the risk of substantial government penalties.

We face risks related to our international operations, including the need to obtain necessary foreign regulatory clearance or approvals. If we fail to obtain regulatory clearances in countries in which we intend to operate for products under development, we will not be able to commercialize these products in those countries. Sales of our products will be subject to regulatory requirements that vary widely from country to country. We may be unable to obtain regulatory approvals in the countries in which we intend to operate or to market our products. We may also incur significant costs in attempting to obtain and in maintaining regulatory approvals. If we experience delays in receipt of approvals to market our products or if we fail to receive these approvals, we may be unable to market our products or enhancements in our intended markets in a timely manner, if at all.

·	Noncompliance with applicable regulatory requirements can result in enforcement action which may include recalling products, ceasing product marketing, and paying significant fines and penalties, which could limit product sales, delay product shipment and adversely affect our profitability.

Our results of operations will suffer if we are unable to manage our operations effectively.

The sale and shipment of our products across international borders will subject us to extensive foreign governmental trade, import and export, and custom regulations and laws. Compliance with these regulations is costly and exposes us to penalties for non-compliance. Other laws and regulations that can significantly impact us include various anti-bribery laws and anti-boycott laws. Any failure to comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations could impact us in a variety of ways that include, but are not limited to, significant criminal, civil and administrative penalties, including imprisonment of individuals, fines and penalties, denial of export privileges, seizure of shipments, restrictions on certain business activities and exclusion or debarment from government contracting. Also, the failure to comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations could result in the disruption of our distribution and sales activities. In addition, some of the countries in which we may sell our products may be subject to political, economic or social instability. Our intended international operations expose us and our distributors to risks inherent in operating in foreign jurisdictions. These risks include:

·	adverse changes in tariffs and trade restrictions;
·	political, social and economic instability and increased security concerns;

·	longer collection periods and difficulties in collecting receivables from foreign entities;
·	exposure to different legal standards;

·	transportation delays and difficulties of managing international distribution channels;
·	lack of stringent protection of intellectual property;

·	potentially adverse tax consequences and the complexities of foreign value-added tax systems;
·	difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations;

·	obstacles to obtaining domestic and foreign export, import and other governmental approvals, permits and licenses and compliance with foreign laws;
·	limitations on the repatriation of earnings; and

·	increased financing costs.

These risks may limit or disrupt our operations, restrict the movement of funds or result in the deprivation of contractual rights or the taking of property by nationalization or expropriation without fair compensation. Our continued success as a global company depends, in part, on our ability to develop and implement policies and strategies that are effective in anticipating and managing these and other risks in the countries in which we do business. Failure to manage these and other risks may have a material adverse effect on our operations in any particular country and on our business as a whole.

If we cannot successfully implement our business strategy, our business, results of operations and potential for growth will be adversely affected.

Our business strategy includes the development and marketing of our products and the obtaining of regulatory approval to sell our products in certain key markets and the acquisition or direct development of P&O clinics in various jurisdictions. Our ability to achieve our business strategy is subject to a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, the implementation of our business strategy may not improve our operating results. We may decide to alter or discontinue aspects of our business strategy and may adopt alternative or additional strategies due to business or competitive factors not currently foreseen, such as the introduction of new products or technologies by our competitors or the lack of clients for our clinics. Any failure to successfully implement our business strategy would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

If we lose our key personnel or are unable to attract and retain key personnel, we may be unable to pursue business opportunities or develop our products.

We are highly dependent upon the experience and ability of certain key employees in our management and clinical bioengineering teams, including Sotirios Leontaritis, Director, President, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Executive Officer; Nikolaos Kardaras, Director and Secretary, and Dr. Christos Kapatos, Director and CTO, who heads the development of our technology. The loss of the services of any one of those individuals could have an adverse effect on our business, and may significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our product development and other business objectives. Our future success will also depend on our ability to identify, recruit, train and retain additional qualified personnel. There is currently a shortage of skilled clinical, bioengineering and management personnel and intense competition for these personnel. Thus, we may not be successful in retaining our key personnel or their services.

Risks Associated with our Common Stock

We are an "emerging growth company," and the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies may make our common stock less attractive to investors.

We are an "emerging growth company," as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act, and may remain an emerging growth company until December 31, 2018, provided that, if the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of any June 30 before that time or if we have annual gross revenues of $1 billion or more in any fiscal year, we would cease to be an emerging growth company as of December 31 of the applicable year. We also would cease to be an emerging growth company if we issue more than $1 billion of non-convertible debt over a three-year period. For so long as we remain an emerging growth company, we are permitted and intend to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. These exemptions include:

·	providing only three years of audited financial statements, in addition to any required unaudited interim financial statements, with correspondingly reduced "Management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations" disclosure;
·	not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting;
·	not being required to comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor's report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements;
·	reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation; and

·	exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

We may choose to take advantage of some, but not all, of the available exemptions. We have taken advantage of reduced reporting burdens in this filing. In particular, in this filing, we have provided only two years of audited financial statements and have not included all of the executive compensation related information that would be required if we were not an emerging growth company. We cannot predict whether investors will find our common stock less attractive if we rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile.

In addition, the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. This allows an emerging growth company to delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to delay such adoption of new or revised accounting standards, and as a result, we may not comply with new or revised accounting standards on the relevant dates, on which adoption of such standards is required for public companies that are not emerging growth companies. As a result of such election, our financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of other public companies.

We do not intend to pay dividends on any investment in the shares of our stock.

We have never paid any cash dividends and currently do not intend to pay any dividends for the foreseeable future. To the extent that we require additional funding currently not provided for in our financing plan, our funding sources may prohibit the payment of a dividend. Because we do not intend to declare dividends, any gain on an investment in our company will need to come through an increase in the stock's price. This may never happen and investors may lose all of their investment in us.

Because we can issue additional shares of common stock, purchasers of our common stock may incur immediate dilution and may experience further dilution.

We are authorized to issue up to 700,000,000 shares of common stock, of which 256,133,852 shares are issued and outstanding as of May 15, 2018. Our board of directors has the authority to cause us to issue additional shares of common stock, and to determine the rights, preferences and privileges of such shares, without consent of any of our stockholders. Consequently, the stockholders may experience more dilution in their ownership of our stock in the future.

Because we can issue shares of preferred stock which will have certain voting rights, which, if voted collectively, could result in a control of any matters put before the Company's stockholders, the shareholders of our common stock will suffer substantial dilution if issued or converted.

We have the right to issue a total of 5,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Except with respect to matters which adversely affect the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, as required by law, or as required by the Articles of Incorporation, the holders of Series A Preferred and the holders of Common Stock shall be entitled to notice of any stockholders' meeting and to vote as a single class upon any matter submitted to the stockholders for a vote, on the following basis:

(a)	holders of Common Stock shall have one vote per share of Common Stock held by them; and
(b)	holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall have 50 votes per share of Series A Preferred Stock held by them.

Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock have voting rights with respect to matters that generally require the approval of voting stockholders, in addition to voting rights as specifically required by Nevada law. In the event the holders of Series A Preferred Stock vote collectively as to any matter put before a vote, such holders of Series A Preferred Stock could control the vote. While the holders of Series A Preferred Stock have not advised that they intend to vote collectively on any matter, nor are we aware of any voting agreements currently in place, we cannot know with certainty that such holders of Series A Preferred Stock will not vote collectively in the future or enter into any voting agreements.

Further, the holders of any Series A Preferred Stock will have the right to convert to common stock at their election on the basis of 20 shares of common stock for each one share of Series A Preferred Stock issued, thus the holders of our common stock would suffer substantial dilution upon conversion.

A decline in the price of our common stock could affect our ability to raise further working capital, it may adversely impact our ability to continue operations, and we may go out of business.

A prolonged decline in the price of our common stock could result in a reduction in the liquidity of our common stock and a reduction in our ability to raise capital. Because we may attempt to acquire a significant portion of the funds we need in order to conduct our planned operations through the sale of equity securities, a decline in the price of our common stock could be detrimental to our liquidity and our operations because the decline may cause investors to not choose to invest in our stock. If we are unable to raise the funds we require for all our planned operations, we may be forced to reallocate funds from other planned uses and may suffer a significant negative effect on our business plan and operations, including our ability to develop new products and continue our current operations. As a result, our business may suffer, and not be successful and we may go out of business. We also might not be able to meet our financial obligations if we cannot raise enough funds through the sale of our common stock and we may be forced to go out of business.

Our stock is a penny stock. Trading of our stock may be restricted by the Securities and Exchange Commission's penny stock regulations which may limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock.

Our stock is a penny stock. The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which generally defines "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors". The term "accredited investor" refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.

FINRA sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock.

In addition to the "penny stock" rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, the FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock.

Technology company stock prices are especially volatile, and this volatility may depress the price of our common stock.

The stock market has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations, and the market prices of technology companies have been highly volatile. We believe that various factors may cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate, perhaps substantially, including, among others, the following:


•	announcements of developments in our patent enforcement actions, should patents be granted to us;
•	developments or disputes concerning our inventions or patents, if granted;
•	our competitors' technological innovations;

•	developments in relationships with licensees;

•	variations in our quarterly operating results;

•	our failure to meet or exceed securities analysts' expectations of our financial results;
•	a change in financial estimates or securities analysts' recommendations;
•	changes in management's or securities analysts' estimates of our financial performance;

•	changes in market valuations of similar companies;

•	the current sovereign debt crises affecting several countries in the European Union and concerns about sovereign debt of the United States;

•	announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, capital commitments, new technologies, or patents, if granted; and
•	failure to complete significant transactions.

The financial crisis affecting the banking system and financial markets and the uncertainty in global economic conditions, which began in late 2007 and has continued up until today, have resulted in a tightening in the credit markets, a low level of liquidity in many financial markets, and extreme volatility in the credit, equity and fixed income markets. If investors have concerns that our business, operating results and financial condition will be negatively impacted by global economic conditions, our stock price could fluctuate significantly in future periods.

In addition, we believe that fluctuations in our stock price during applicable periods can also be impacted by court rulings and/or other developments in our patent licensing and enforcement actions. Court rulings in patent enforcement actions are often difficult to understand, even when favorable or neutral to the value of the patents we intend to apply for and our overall business, and we believe that investors in the market may overreact, causing fluctuations in our stock prices that may not accurately reflect the impact of court rulings on our business operations and assets.

In the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been the objects of securities class action litigation. If our common stock was the object of securities class action litigation, it could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management's attention and resources, which could materially harm our business and financial results.

Risks Related to our Financial Results and Need for Additional Financing

We may be unable to raise additional capital if it should be necessary, which could harm our ability to compete.

We expect to incur significant expenditures in order to establish an international brand, to develop both product and process technology, and to operate P&O clinics around the world. We do not currently have the funds available to effectuate our business plan. We have to date relied on loans from our chief executive officer and certain private placements of our common stock to fund our ongoing operations, as well as revenues generated from our Glasgow Clinic and initial technology access fees, however, we cannot be assured that these opportunities will provide funding for our ongoing operations and we may require substantial funding that may not be available when required. We will be required to seek substantial funding in the equity markets or by loans for operations. We may not be able to raise funds when needed, or on acceptable terms.

We may not generate sufficient cash flow to service our debt, pay our contractual obligations and operate our business.

Our ability to make payments on our indebtedness and contractual obligations, and to fund our operations depends on our future performance and financial results, which, to a certain extent, are subject to general economic, financial, competitive, regulatory and other factors, including the interest rate environment, that are beyond our control. Until such time as we can establish operations to generate sufficient liquidity to meet our obligations as they come due you are at risk of our business failing and the loss of your investment.

There can be no assurance that our business will generate sufficient cash flow, if any, from operations in the future to service our debt, pay our contractual obligations and operate our business as currently planned.

Our financial results may vary significantly from quarter-to-quarter due to a number of factors, which may lead to volatility in our stock price.

Our quarterly revenue and results of operations may vary significantly from quarter-to-quarter if, and when, we (i) expand our chain of P&O Clinics to increase our revenue in this segment, and (ii) successfully commercialize any one of our technologies so that we are actively receiving both licensing fees and royalties from the ongoing sales of our products. While we are generating revenue at our flagship P&O clinic and we are earning revenue from licensing fees for access to our technology by industry partners, we are still working on expanding our revenue base so that we can cover operations and so that we can make accurate predictions about our annual operating costs and funding requirements. This variability may lead to volatility in our stock price as research analysts and investors respond to these quarterly fluctuations. These fluctuations are due to numerous factors, including: fluctuations in consumer demand for our products; our ability to design and deliver products to our consumers in a timely and cost-effective manner; quality control problems in the manufacturing operations; our ability to timely obtain adequate quantities of the components used in our products; new product introductions and enhancements by us and our competitors; unanticipated increases in costs or expenses; and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The foregoing factors are difficult to forecast, and these, as well as other factors, could materially and adversely affect our quarterly and annual results of operations.

Prolonged negative economic conditions in domestic and global markets may adversely affect our suppliers and consumers, which could harm our financial position.

Global credit and financial markets have experienced extreme disruptions over the past few years, including severely diminished liquidity and credit availability, declines in consumer confidence, declines in economic growth, increases in unemployment rates, and uncertainty about economic stability. Although these markets have recently shown signs of rebounding, there can be no assurance that further deterioration in credit and financial markets and confidence in economic conditions will not occur. Our general business strategy may be adversely affected by the recent economic downturn, volatile business environments and continued unpredictable and unstable market conditions. If the current equity and credit markets deteriorate further, or do not improve, it may make debt or equity financings, if needed, more difficult, more costly and more dilutive. Failure to secure financing, if needed, in a timely manner, on favorable terms or at all could have a material adverse effect on our growth strategy, financial performance and stock price, and could require us to delay or abandon certain aspects of our business strategy. These negative changes in domestic and global economic conditions or additional disruptions of either or both of the financial and credit markets may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans

The Company does not currently have any equity compensation plans and thus no securities have been issued.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA.

As a "smaller reporting company", we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this Annual Report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in such forward looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Annual Report.

Our financial statements are stated in United States dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

The Company has only recently commenced generated revenues from planned principal operations and continues to develop its intellectual property to expand its revenue base through joint ventures and commercialization arrangements with third parties.

Results of Operations for the Year ended December 31, 2017 Compared to the Year ended December 31, 2016

Revenue, Cost of Revenue, and Gross Profit - We generated $355,736 in revenues from operations and $130,172 in cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2017, compared to $687,448 in revenue and $321,713 in costs of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2016. The substantive decline in revenues is due primarily to a decline in revenues at our Glasgow P&O Clinic where we had fewer patients for large prosthetic services. In addition, during fiscal 2016 the Company received its first revenues from technology licensing agreements including technology access agreements to vet and commercialize certain applications of our Flexisense technology. There was only minimal revenue during fiscal 2017 from our technology division.

Operating Expenses – Operating expenses increased substantially period over period, up from $1,971,308 in 2016 to $3,108,044 in 2017, an increase of approximately 58%. The substantial increase in consulting fees, most of which were settled by the issuance of restricted shares of common stock based on market value as at the issuance date, totaling $1,068,357 in fiscal 2017 as compared to only $542,456 in fiscal 2016 is the largest contributor to our increase to operating expenses. Professional fees decreased period over period from $610,671 in fiscal 2016 as compared to $284,716 in the current fiscal year, as the Company did not incur fees related to professional investor relations services in the current fiscal year and each of legal and accounting fees were also reduced period over period. Travel and entertainment expenditures were also reduced year over year from $105,337 in fiscal 2016 as compared to only $59,629 in fiscal 2017. Research and development were also substantially increased period over period from $340,782 in fiscal 2016 to $1,290,345 in fiscal 2017 as a result of certain additional research and development initiatives acquired for share based compensation of 18,500,000 shares valued at $925,000 on the date of issue. Office expenses and rent remained relatively constant year over year.

Loss from Operations – The Company recorded an operating loss of $2,882,480 in the current fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 as compared to an operating loss of $1,605,573 in the prior comparative fiscal year end. The increase to our operating loss is a combination of a decrease in revenues period over period, and a substantive increase in consultancy fees in the current fiscal year.

Other expenses - During year ended December 31, 2017 total other expenses, including a loss on settlement of debt of $17,707, interest expenses due to a related party of $6,143 and a loss on foreign exchange of $1,096 totaled $24,946 as compared to only $1,786 in fiscal 2016. The increase to losses from other expenses is predominantly related to the loss on the settlement of certain debt, with no similar expense in the prior comparative year.

Net Loss - As a result of the substantial increase in operating expenses during the year ended December 31, 2017 and the decrease to gross profit, the Company recorded a net loss of $2,987,426 in the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to a net loss of $1,596,159 in the year ended December 31, 2016.

CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY

At December 31, 2017, we had $352,498 cash on hand and liabilities of $1,560,910 including $1,091,634 in accounts payable and accrued expenses (including amounts due to related parties), $341,355 in advances from related parties, $47,921 in notes payable, third parties and an accrual of $80,000 in respect to estimated late filing penalties imposed by the IRS. Presently we rely on our President and director, as well as private placements from qualified investors, officers and directors, to fund our general operating expenses. The Company has secured operating loans and advances from the Company's Executive Officers of $168,899 and $511,850 in 2017 and 2016, and has closed private placements in the amount of $1,064,310 and $844,287 during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. Further we have received loans from third parties of $123,300 to further address operational shortfalls. These amounts contribute to our ongoing operating expenses and obligations until such time as the Company can conclude a larger equity based financing, anticipated during fiscal 2018.

The Company expects it will need to raise a total of $5,000,000 to fund its proposed operations for the next twelve months. It intends to fund operations by a combination of related party loans and equity placements. The Company continues to seek partners for our various technologies and market ready products in order to commence meaningful revenue flow from our technology division. Our President and CEO, Mr. Sotirios Leontaritis and our recently appointed Treasurer, Mr. Georgios Thrapsaniotis continue to personally fund any short fall in our ongoing operations by way of loans, advances and private placements.

There can be no assurance that continued funding will be available on satisfactory terms.

GOING CONCERN

The Company incurred net losses of $2,987,426 and $1,596,159 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively and has a retained deficit of $34,736,633. In addition, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $1,066,108 and a stockholders' deficit of $911,079 at December 31, 2017. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

There can be no assurance that sufficient funds required during the next year or thereafter will be generated from operations or that funds will be available from external sources such as debt or equity financings or other potential sources. The lack of additional capital resulting from the inability to generate cash flow from operations or to raise capital from external sources would force the Company to substantially curtail or cease operations and would, therefore, have a material adverse effect on its business. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that any such required funds, if available, will be available on attractive terms or that they will not have a significant dilutive effect on the Company's existing stockholders.

The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Need for Additional Financing

Costs associated with being a public company are much higher than those of a private company. There are present legal and accounting expenses, reporting requirements to the SEC, and investor relation costs that must be borne by a public company but not by a private company. These costs can be a burdensome expense which could adversely affect our financial survival. The ongoing regulatory costs, reporting requirements, and management details, which must be met when maintaining a public company, may make the economic viability of our Company very doubtful. In addition, the Company has projected it will need to raise up to $5,000,000 to meet its planned business objectives for 2018, including continuation of its ongoing technology licensing and development efforts and there can be no assurance those funds will be available if, and when needed.

In the past we have relied on advances from our president to cover our operating costs, as well as equity private placements from qualified investors. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in finding joint venture partners or commercial partners to market and develop its technologies, or that funds for the development of the Company's additional in-house technology development will be available if and when needed, or that funding will be available for marketing our products, if and when required. We were unable to open our planned clinic in Athens during fiscal 2016 as a result of a shortfall of available funds. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain funding as needed in order to meet our objectives on our proposed timeline, or at all.

Off- Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our stockholders.

Contractual Obligations

As a "smaller reporting company", we are not required to provide this information.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the 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. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments which are based on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of their evaluation form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and circumstances. Certain of our significant accounting policies are discussed below. Our accounting policies in their entirety are more fully discussed in the Notes to our Financial Statements. Refer to Note 4 of the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included herein.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results when ultimately realized could differ from these estimates.

Foreign Currencies

Items included in the consolidated financial statements of each of the Company and its subsidiaries are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the 'functional currency'). The Company's reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of subsidiaries based in the UK is pound sterling and the functional currency of the Company's subsidiary based in the Greece is the Euro. All transactions initiated in Pounds and Euro are translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 830-30, "Translation of Financial Statements," as follows:

i) assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate at the date of the balance sheet or 1USD=0.8347EUR, 1USD=0.74108GBP (December 31, 2017), and;

1USD=0.9490EUR, 1USD=0.8127GBP (December 31, 2016);

ii) income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for twelve months ended December 31, or

1USD=0.8873EUR, 1USD=0.7768GBP (December 31, 2017), and;

1USD=0.9036EUR, 1USD=0.7399GBP (December 31, 2016);

iii) all resulting exchange differences are recognized as other comprehensive income, a separate component of equity.

Adjustments arising from such translations are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders' equity.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when the earnings process is complete and persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists. This generally occurs when prosthetic products are fitted to customers, both title and the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred or services have been rendered and accepted, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured.

Inventory

Inventories, which consist principally of raw materials and parts, are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method and are adjusted to actual cost quarterly based on a physical count. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses. Work-in-process inventory consists of materials, labor and a predetermined fixed rate of overhead which is valued based on established standards for the stage of completion of each custom order. We do not carry finished goods on hand. Material, labor and overhead costs are determined at the individual clinic level. Presently we only maintain very limited parts and raw materials inventory.

Warranty

We do not record warranty liabilities at the time of sale for the estimated costs that may be incurred under the terms of the applicable limited warranty as all component parts are covered by our respective industry suppliers.

Stock-based compensation

For stock-based compensation the Company follows the guidance codified in the Compensation – Stock Compensation Topic of FASB ASC ("ASC 718"). The Company determines the value of stock issued at the date of grant. It also determines at the date of grant, the value of stock at fair market value or the value of services rendered (based on contract or otherwise) whichever is more readily determinable.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To The Board of Directors and Stockholders of

HCi Viocare

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of HCi Viocare (the "Company") as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2017 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, 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.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Emphasis of Matter

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered losses from operations and has a working capital deficiency that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Audited Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2017

Note 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND

HCi Viocare ("VICA" or the "Company") was incorporated on March 26, 2007 under the laws of the State of Nevada. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.

While the Company has generated revenues from a portion of its planned principal operations, we are not yet able to meet operational overheads and are not yet profitable. We are considered an emerging growth enterprise. The Company was originally formed to sell medical devices with an emphasis on portable medical devices designed for home treatments with the initial focus in the northern regions of China. The Company's intent was to seek strategic relationships with medical device manufacturers both in China and North America with the aim to be their sales and distribution agent in Northern China and to assist Chinese medical device manufacturers on the development of the North American market.

On September 10, 2013, the controlling shareholder of the Company sold his controlling interest in the shares of the Company and there was a change in the Board of Directors of the Company, effecting a change in control of the Company. The business of the Company remains in the field of medical devices and other opportunities related to their uses. We are currently engaged in the technology development and licensing of bioengineering innovations for the health, sports and wellness sectors, and operate a prosthetic and orthotic (P&O) total rehabilitation clinic in Glasgow, Scotland.

On January 15, 2014, the Company incorporated two wholly-owned subsidiaries in Scotland, U.K., HCi Viocare Technologies Limited and HCi Viocare Clinics UK Limited. The Company intends to operate in Scotland under these two subsidiaries, one of which will undertake the development and marketing of technologies and the other which is a P&O clinic, which will serve as the center of reference and training for the Company's further clinics.

On February 12, 2014, through our wholly owned subsidiary, HCi Viocare Technologies Limited, the Company acquired an interest in a patented technology known as "Socket-Fit". SocketFit is a system that will help overcome technical and resource hurdles endemic to the prosthetic sector. The system has been designed with the aim of offering optimally fitted prosthetic sockets that will reduce the number of prostheses made for patients, resulting in a reduced number of visits by the patient to the prosthetic, and also assisting in the rehabilitation of amputees. Socket-Fit is a digital system for assessing an amputee's residual limb and for the production of truly functional and comfortable prosthetic sockets. The technology takes account of the external and internal geometry of the amputee's stump, the biomechanical properties of each individual soft tissue layer and the boundary and loading conditions of a complete prosthesis to generate a virtual 3D model of the residual limb making it possible to produce an accurate, functional and comfortable prosthetic socket. By minimizing the time and cost of socket production and reducing the number of faulty sockets there will be a reduction in costs incurred by health services and insurance companies worldwide as well as benefits to the amputee. The Company intends to undertake and fund, through its U.K. subsidiary, a project to improve the nature of the data used in socket modeling software with a view to creating a system that will enable prosthetists to build a socket that evenly distributes weight, provides enhanced comfort, and can be marketed and used across the industry for improved socket creation.

On February 19, 2014, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of Nevada to change the name of the Company to HCi Viocare effective March 21, 2014. Effective March 21, 2014, in accordance with approval from FINRA, we changed our name from China Northern Medical Device, Inc. to HCi Viocare. Concurrently we commenced trading on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol "VICA".

On April 16, 2014, through our wholly owned subsidiary HCi Viocare Technologies Limited, we acquired all rights and interest in and to the background Intellectual Property Rights ("IPR") for a developing technology known as "Smart Insole". The Smart Insole system is believed to be a state-of-the-art, pressure and shear (friction)-sensing insole that can wirelessly communicate with connected devices. The insole has a number of applications, including the mitigation of diabetic foot complications, such as ulceration, infection and amputation, in clinical gait analysis and in sports, as a wearable device to help athletes optimize their performance and prevent injury. The sensing system is very low cost, compared to traditional pressure sensing technologies, in our opinion making such applications affordable to the consumer for the first time.

Note 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS BACKGROUND (continued)

On June 9, 2014, the Company, through our wholly owned subsidiary, HCi Viocare Clinics, acquired W D Spence Prosthetics Limited (the "Clinic"). The Clinic is located in Glasgow, Scotland, and is a fully operational prosthetics and orthotics clinic. The acquisition of the Clinic is the first step to the Company's and HCi Viocare Clinics' intention to develop the first chain of prosthetics and orthotics (P&O) and diabetic foot rehabilitation clinics in the European market, covering Southern Europe, the Middle East and North Africa.

Note 2 - GOING CONCERN

The Company has relied heavily for its financing needs up until the close of fiscal 2017 on its Chief Executive Officer and President as more fully disclosed in Note 10.

Note 3 - CONTROL BY PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDER/OFFICER

Our Chief Executive Officer owns beneficially and, in the aggregate, the majority of the voting power of the Company. Accordingly, the Chief Executive Officer has the ability to control the approval of most corporate actions, including approving significant expenses, increasing the authorized capital stock and the dissolution, merger or sale of the Company's assets. Subsequent to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, our Chief Executive Officer sold his controlling share position to a third party. Note 16 – Subsequent events.

Note 4 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principals of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of HCi Viocare and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, HCi Viocare Technologies Limited, HCi Viocare Clinics UK Limited and HCi Viocare Clinics (Hellas) S.A. On August 2, 2017 the Company commenced the dissolution and liquidation of HCi Viocare Clinics (Hellas) S.A. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("US GAAP") and are presented in U.S. dollars.

Use of Estimates

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits in banks with maturities of three months or less, and all highly liquid investments which are unrestricted as to withdrawal or use, and which have original maturities of three months or less.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents, receivables, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximates their fair value due to the relatively short-term nature of these instruments.

Foreign Currencies

i) assets and liabilities are translated at the closing rate at the date of the balance sheet or 1USD=0.8347EUR, 1USD=0.74108GBP (December 31, 2017), and;

1USD=0.9490EUR, 1USD=0.8127GBP (December 31, 2016);

ii) income and expenses are translated at average exchange rates for twelve months ended December 31, or

1USD=0.8873EUR, 1USD=0.7768GBP (December 31, 2017), and;

1USD=0.9036EUR, 1USD=0.7399GBP (December 31, 2016);

Note 4 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when the earnings process is complete and persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists. This generally occurs for revenue recorded in our P&O Clinics division when prosthetic products are fitted to customers, both title and the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred or services have been rendered and accepted, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. Revenue is recognized upon issuance of an invoice and completion of each concluded stage of work performed on a prosthetic product. The Company recognizes revenue from its technology licensing fees and/or product development fees upon conclusion of services provided under contract.

Inventory

Warranty

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred or the first time the advertising takes place, whichever is earlier, in accordance with ASC 720-35. Advertising costs were immaterial for the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Research and Development Costs

The Company charges research and development costs to expense when incurred in accordance with FASB ASC 730, "Research and Development". Research and development costs were $1,290,345 and $340,782 for the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Related parties

For the purposes of these financial statements, parties are considered to be related if one party has the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the party or exercise significant influence over the party in making financial and operating decisions, or vice versa, or where the Company and the party are subject to common control or common significant influence. Related parties may be individuals or other entities.

Note 4 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, "Income Taxes", which requires the asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets is recorded when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company has retained deficit from operations. Because there is no certainty that we will realize taxable income in the future, the Company did not record any deferred tax benefit as a result of these losses.

Income tax years for 2014 through 2016 have been remitted timely, and remain open to examination by the taxing authorities. The Company has been assessed late filing penalties of $10,000 per year, as well as accrued interest thereon, for each of the late filed returns for the periods from inception to December 31, 2013. Prior to a change in control at the close of fiscal 2013, prior management had not timely filed their annual tax returns. We have estimated and accrued penalties of $80,000 as taxes payable in our financial statements. The Company has retained a tax professional to assist in reaching a settlement with the IRS.

Basic and Diluted Loss per Share

The Company reports earnings per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, "Earnings Per Share." FASB ASC 260 requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share in conjunction with the disclosure of the methodology used in computing such earnings per share. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. The Company had potentially dilutive securities outstanding (convertible debt and liabilities) for the period ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, however, since the Company reflected a net loss in the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the effect of considering any common stock equivalents, if outstanding, would have been anti-dilutive. A separate computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share is not presented.

	December 31, 2017		December 31, 2016
Common stock issuable upon conversion of 25,000 Series A Preferred Stock Options		500,000		500,000
Common stock issuable upon exercise of stock options		28,000,000		-
Total		28,500,000		500,000

Comprehensive Income

FASB ASC 220, "Comprehensive Income", establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income, as defined, includes all changes in equity during a period, exclusive of shareholder transactions. Accordingly, comprehensive income (loss) may include certain changes in shareholders' equity (deficit) that are excluded from net income (loss).

Segment Reporting

FASB ASC 820 "Segments Reporting" establishes standards for reporting information about operating segments on a basis consistent with the Company's internal organization structure as well as information about geographical areas, business segments and major customers in financial statements. Our proposed business segments are expected to span more than one geographical area. Specifically, the Company intends to operate prosthetic and orthotic rehabilitation clinics with various European based locations, as well as a corporate development and technology center which will undertake ongoing research and marketing activities.

Note 4 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Fair Value of Measurements

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States define fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, the inputs used to measure fair value are prioritized based on a three-level hierarchy. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Input other than quoted market prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly, and reasonably available. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs. Unobservable inputs reflect the assumptions that the Company develops based on available information about what market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability.

An asset or liability's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Availability of observable inputs can vary and is affected by a variety of factors. The Company uses judgment in determining fair value of assets and liabilities and Level 3 assets and liabilities involve greater judgment than Level 1 and Level 2 assets or liabilities.

Recent Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, "Clarifying the Definition of a Business" with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. This guidance will be applied prospectively to any transactions occurring within the period of adoption.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, "Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment" that eliminates the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill (i.e., Step 2 of the current goodwill impairment test) to measure a goodwill impairment charge. Instead, an impairment charge will be based on the excess of a reporting unit's carrying amount over its fair value (i.e., measure the charge based on Step 1 of the current goodwill impairment test). This guidance is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed in periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for annual and interim goodwill impairment testing dates after January 1, 2017. This guidance will be adopted on a prospective basis.

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-08, "Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities" that shortens the amortization period for the premium on certain purchased callable debt securities to the earliest call date. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years with early adoption permitted. This guidance will be adopted using a modified retrospective transition approach. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to materially impact our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. The new guidance provides clarity and reduces both (1) diversity in practice and (2) cost and complexity when applying the guidance in Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, to a change to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award. The accounting standard update will be effective for The Company beginning January 1, 2018 on a prospective basis, and early adoption is permitted. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on the consolidated financial statements.

In August of 2017, the FASB issued guidance to better align the financial reporting related to hedging activities with the economic objectives of those activities and to simplify the application of current hedge accounting guidance. Entities are required to apply the guidance using a modified retrospective method as of the period of adoption. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 31, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. Management is evaluating

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements upon adoption.

b) Risk-free interest rate: The rate is based on the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon yield curve on the grant date for a maturity similar to the expected life of the options.

c) Volatility: The expected volatility of the Company's common stock is calculated by using the historical daily volatility of the Company's stock price calculated over a period of time representative of the expected life of the options.

d) Dividend yield: The dividend yield rate is not considered in the model, as the Company has not established a dividend policy for the stock.

Note 14– PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES:

The Company's operations in Greece have no tax free income threshold and are subject to taxation at a rate of 29% applied to all net income earned after $1 Euro.

Note 14– PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES: (continued)

The Company has experienced losses since inception. As a result, it has incurred no U.S. Federal income tax. The Internal Revenue Code allows net operating losses (NOL's) to be carried forward and applied against future profits for a period of twenty years. The Greece Tax Code permits such carryforwards for a period of five years. The United Kingdom Tax Code permits such carryforwards indefinitely. The total of these NOL's at December 31, 2017 was $2,888,000 in the U.S., $1,343,400 in Greece and $307,080 in the U.K and at December 31, 2016 was $4,619,000 in the U.S., $1,244,000 in Greece and $306,000 in the U.K.

On December 22, 2017, the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the Tax Act) was enacted into law including a one-time mandatory transition tax on accumulated foreign earnings and a reduction of the corporate income tax rate to 21% effective January 1, 2018, among others. We are required to recognize the effect of the tax law changes in the period of enactment, such as determining the transition tax, remeasuring our U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities as well as reassessing the net realizability of our deferred tax assets and liabilities. While the Company has revenue we have no foreign earnings and therefore, we do not anticipate the impact of a transition tax. We have remeasured our U.S. deferred tax assets at a statutory income tax rate of 21% during fiscal 2017. Since the Tax Act was passed late in the fourth quarter of 2017, and ongoing guidance and accounting interpretation are expected over the next 12 months, we consider the accounting of any transition tax, deferred tax re-measurements, and other items to be incomplete due to the forthcoming guidance and our ongoing analysis of final year-end data and tax positions. We expect to complete our analysis within the measurement period in accordance with SAB 118, and no later than fiscal year end December 31, 2018.

The provision for income taxes in US consists of the following:

Notes to Audited Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2017

Note 14– PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES: (continued)

The Company has no tax position at December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses. As a result of a re-assessment of certain late tax filings completed for the fiscal years ended 2007 through 2012 the IRS has assess late filing penalties of approximately $80,000, which we have recognized during the period presented and accrued in our balance sheets at December 31, 2017. The Company had no accruals for interest and penalties at December 31, 2016. The Company is aggressively negotiating with the IRS to have a portion or all of these penalties waived in a future period. The Company's utilization of any net operating loss carry forward may be unlikely as a result of its intended activities.

The Company recognized deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax losses and tax credit carryforwards. The Company will establish a valuation allowance to reflect the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets.

Note 15 - SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company's operations are classified into two reportable segments that provide different products or services. Separate management of each segment is required because each business unit is subject to different marketing, operations, and growth and technology development strategies.

The Clinics segment derives its revenue from provision of services at our P&O Clinic located in Glasgow, Scotland. The Technology segment derives its income from the licensing of its proprietary technologies and ultimately recurring royalty income as well as technology access fees. Presently we are only deriving income from our UK-based operations. We expect this to be the case until such time as we are able to expand our chain of P&O Clinics.

There are no inter-segment sales however, the Company's two primary operating segments do share cost on certain operational overheads including facility rent and staff salaries.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

None.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, under supervision and with the participation of the Company's Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based upon this evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2017, because of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting ("ICFR") described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that required information to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that required information to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined under Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 14d-14(f). Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can only provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial reporting reliability and financial statement preparation and presentation. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to risk that controls become inadequate because of changes in conditions and that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017. In making the assessment, management used the criteria issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework 2013. Based on its assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2017, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective and that material weaknesses in ICFR existed as more fully described below.

As defined by Auditing Standard No. 5, "An Audit of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting that is Integrated with an Audit of Financial Statements" established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB"), a material weakness is a deficiency or combination of deficiencies that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. In connection with the assessment described above, management identified the following control deficiencies that represent material weaknesses as of December 31, 2017:

1)	Lack of an independent audit committee or audit committee financial expert, and no independent directors. We do not have any members of the Board who are independent directors and we do not have an audit committee. These factors may be counter to corporate governance practices as defined by the various stock exchanges and may lead to less supervision over management;
2)	Insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements;

Management's Remediation Initiatives

As of December 31, 2017, management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, it was concluded that during the period covered by this report, the internal controls and procedures were not effective due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal controls over financial reporting. However, management believes these weaknesses did not have an effect on our financial results. During the course of our evaluation, we did not discover any fraud involving management or any other personnel who play a significant role in our disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls over financial reporting.

Due to a lack of financial and personnel resources, we are not able to, and do not intend to, immediately take any action to remediate these material weaknesses. We will not be able to do so until, if ever, we acquire sufficient financing and staff to do so. We will implement further controls as circumstances, cash flow, and working capital permits. Notwithstanding the assessment that our ICFR was not effective and that there were material weaknesses as identified in this report, we believe that our financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2017, fairly presents our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods covered, as identified, in all material respects.

Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth above were the result of the scale of our operations and intrinsic to our small size. Management also believes that these weaknesses did not have an effect on our financial results.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the period covered by this report, there were no changes (including corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses) in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 9B. Other Information

None.

A director shall not be deemed to have a material relationship with the Company that impairs the director's independence as a result of any of the following relationships:

	1.	the director is an officer or other person holding a salaried position of an entity (other than a principal, equity partner or member of such entity) that provides professional services to the Company and the amount of all payments from the Company to such entity during the most recently completed fiscal year was less than two percent of such entity's consolidated gross revenues;

	3.	the director is an executive officer of a civic, charitable or cultural institution that received less than the greater of one million ($1,000,000) dollars or two (2%) per cent of its consolidated gross revenues, as such term is construed by the New York Stock Exchange for purposes of Section 303A.02(b)(v) of the Corporate Governance Standards, from the Company or any of its subsidiaries for each of the last three (3) fiscal years;
	4.	the director is an officer of an entity that is indebted to the Company, or to which the Company is indebted, and the total amount of either the Company's or the business entity's indebtedness is less than three (3%) per cent of the total consolidated assets of such entity as of the end of the previous fiscal year; and
	5.	the director obtained products or services from the Company on terms generally available to customers of the Company for such products or services. The Board retains the sole right to interpret and apply the foregoing standards in determining the materiality of any relationship.

The Board shall undertake an annual review of the independence of all non-management directors. To enable the Board to evaluate each non-management director, in advance of the meeting at which the review occurs, each non-management director shall provide the Board with full information regarding the director's business and other relationships with the Company, its affiliates and senior management.

Directors must inform the Board whenever there are any material changes in their circumstances or relationships that could affect their independence, including all business relationships between a director and the Company, its affiliates, or members of senior management, whether or not such business relationships would be deemed not to be material under any of the categorical standards set forth above. Following the receipt of such information, the Board shall re-evaluate the director's independence.
