GENETHERA, INC.
CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017
 
Note 1 – Organization and nature of operations and summary of significant accounting policies
 
Organization and nature of operations
 
The consolidated financial statements include GeneThera, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary GeneThera, Inc. (Colorado) (collectively, the “Company”). The Company has a long standing research collaboration with GTI Research, Inc. GTI Research is assisting the Company in managing the robotic technology project. The Company’s CEO is also collaborating with this project in order for the Company’s research and development to finally become commercial in order to generate revenues.
 
The Company is a biotechnology company that develops molecular assays for the detection of food contaminating pathogens, veterinary diseases and genetically modified organisms.
 
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial information. Accordingly they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments and transactions or events discrettly impacting the interim periods, considered necessary by management to fairly state our results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our 2017 Form 10-K. 
 
Use of estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain prior period amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.
 
Cash and cash equivalents
 
Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.
 
Principles of consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its subsidiary. All intercompany accounts are eliminated upon consolidation.
 
Property and equipment, net
 
Property and equipment consists primarily of office and laboratory equipment, leasehold improvements, vehicle, and is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives ranging from five to seven years.
 
Impairment of long-lived assets
 
The Company reviews the recoverability of its long-lived assets to determine whether events or changes in circumstances occurred that indicate the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. The assessment of possible impairment is based on the ability to recover the carrying value of the asset from the expected future cash flows of the related operations. If these cash flows are less than the carrying value of such asset, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference between the estimated fair value and carrying value. The measurement of impairment requires management to make estimates of these cash flows related to long-lived assets, as well as other fair value determinations.
 
Revenue recognition
 
There were no revenues during March 31, 2018 and 2017.
 
 
8
 
 
Stock-Based Compensation
 
Stock-based compensation is accounted for under FASB ASC Topic No. 718 – Compensation – Stock Compensation. The guidance requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively the vesting period). The guidance also requires measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company accounts for non-employee share-based awards in accordance with guidance related to equity instruments that are issued to other than employees for acquisition, or in conjunction with selling, goods or services.
 
Research and development costs
 
R&D cost are currently expensed as incurred and primarily include cost associated with R&D arrangements with external parties in connection with the Company’s robotic technology project.
 
Income taxes
 
Income taxes are accounted for in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic No. 740 - 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. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.
 
Basic and diluted net loss per common share
 
Basic and diluted net loss per share calculations are presented in accordance with FASB ASC Topic No. 260 – Earnings per Share, and are calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted per share calculations includes the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents in years with net income. As the Company is in a loss position, any calculation of the dilutive effects of the Company's convertible securities would reduce the loss per share amount, and, as such, the Company will not perform the calculation. The weighted average potentially dilutive shares underlying the Company’s convertible securities excluded from the calculation of earnings per share as they would be anti-dilutive were 182,635,000 and 179,976,248 as of March 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
 
Fair value of financial instruments
 
The carrying value of cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable approximates fair value due to the short term nature of these accounts.
 
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
 
Accounting for Leases. In February 2016, the FASB amended the FASB Accounting Standards Codification and created a new Topic 842, Leases (the "New Lease Standard"). The guidance requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date and recognize expenses on their income statements similar to the current Topic 840, Leases. The New Lease Standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. We will adopt this standard effective January 1, 2019. We have not finalized our assessment but believe this standard will have a significant impact on our consolidated balance sheet. The standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's results of operations or cash flows. The primary effect of adopting the New Lease Standard will be to record an asset and obligation for our operating lease which commenced in 2018.
 
Note 2- Going Concern
 
As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $26,809,686 and negative working capital of $7,463,862 as of March 31, 2018. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
 
Management believes that actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plans provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.
 
Note 3 - Property and Equipment
 
As of January 23, 2018, the Company had purchased a vehicle in the amount of $27,800.

The Company relies on GTI Research, Inc. (“GTIR”), the Company’s scientific robotic technology collaborator, for conducting critical research and development activities on the Company’s robotic technology development project. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, the Company incurred costs of $18,868 for development services from GTIR. In addition, the Company subleases from GTIR all of its office and lab space under a 75 month lease. GTIR holds a $12,000 security deposit paid by the Company in December of 2017 and the Company incurred base rental and triple net expenses of $29,183 associated with the lease during the three-months ended March 31, 2018. See a description of the lease terms in Note 8 to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
The Company utilizes Elia Holding, LLC for construction and other maintenance services to maintain the Company’s office and lab space. Elia Holding, LLC is controller by Tannya Irizarry’s brother. Costs incurred related to such services were $4,800 during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

ITEM 2: 
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
Sections of this Form 10-Q, including the Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation, contain “forward-looking statements”.  These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from the results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.  You should not unduly rely on these statements.  Forward-looking statements involve assumptions and describe our plans, strategies, and expectations.  You can generally identify a forward-looking statement by words such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “plans,” “goal,” “potential,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “intent,” “project,” and similar words and variations thereof.  This report contains forward-looking statements that address, among other things,
 
* Our financing plans
* Regulatory environments in which we operate or plan to operate
* Trends affecting our financial condition or results of operations
* The impact of competition, the start-up of certain operations and acquisition opportunities.
 
Factors, risks, and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements (“Cautionary Statements”) include, among others,
 
* Our ability to raise capital
* Our ability to execute our business strategy in a very competitive environment
* Our degree of financial leverage
* Risks associated with our acquiring and integrating companies into our own
* Risks relating to rapidly developing technology
* Regulatory considerations
* Risks related to international economies
* Risks related to market acceptance and demand for our products and services
* The impact of competitive services and pricing
* Other risks referenced from time to time in our SEC filings
 
All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us, or anyone acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements.  We do not undertake any obligations to publicly release any revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report or to reflect unanticipated events that may occur.
 
You should read the following discussion of our results and plan of operation in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.  Statements in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation that are not statements of historical or current objective fact are “forward-looking statements.”
 
OVERVIEW
 
We have developed proprietary diagnostic assays for use in the agricultural and veterinary markets.  Specific assays for Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) (among elk and deer) and Mad Cow Disease (among cattle) have been developed and are available currently on a limited basis.  E. coli (predominantly cattle) and Johne’s disease (predominantly cattle and bison) diagnostics are in development.  We are also working on vaccine solutions to meet the growing demands of today’s veterinary industry and tomorrow’s agriculture and healthcare industries.  The Company is organized and operated both to continually apply its scientific research to more effective management of diseases and, in so doing, realize the commercial potential of molecular biotechnology.
 
We have not generated significant operating revenue as of March 31, 2018. Our ability to generate substantial operating revenue will depend on our ability to develop and obtain approval for molecular assays and developing therapeutic vaccines for the detection and prevention of food contaminating pathogens, veterinary diseases, and diseases affecting human health.
 
Our independent auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern in their report on our consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017.  For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and twelve months ended December 31, 2017, our operating losses were $238,226 and $757,720, respectively.  Our current liabilities exceeded current assets by $7,463,862 and $7,225,628 as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2018, our operating losses were $238,226.
 
Although, we completed an equity financing with gross proceeds of approximately $1.1 million in 2005, we will require significant additional funding in order to achieve our business plan.  Over the next 12 months, in order to have the capability of achieving our business plan, we believe that we will require at least $20,000,000 in additional funding. We will attempt to raise these funds by both means of one or more private offerings of debt or equity securities.  In such events, we may need immediate additional funding.  Our capital requirements will depend on many factors including, but not limited to, the timing of further development of assays to detect the presence of infectious disease from the blood of live animals, our hiring of additional personnel, the applications for, and receipt of, regulatory approvals for any veterinary vaccines that we may develop, and other factors.  Our ability to raise capital will increase our ability to implement our business plan.
 
 
12
 
 
We also expect to spend a significant amount of our capital on research and development activities for commercialization relating to development and vaccine design/development.  When we are able to develop assays for different diseases, we intend to formalize the procedure into a commercial application through a series of laboratories to be owned and operated by GeneThera.  To date, we have introduced our diagnostic solution for Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) and Mad Cow Disease on a very limited basis.  We anticipate that significant funds will be spent on research and development throughout the life of the Company, as this is the source for new products to be introduced to the market.  Our plan is to seek new innovations in the robotic biotechnology field.  We may be successful in developing or validating any new assays and, when we are successful in developing and validating any such assays, we may be able to successfully commercialize them or earn profits from sales of those assays.  Furthermore, we may be able to design, develop, or successfully commercialize vaccines as a result of our research and development efforts.
 
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
The Company has an outstanding loan payable and accrued interest to Antonio Milici, its CEO and stockholder amounting to $697,235 and $693,155 as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. This outstanding loan to the Company is unsecured and bears interest at 2.41%. The Company has an outstanding loan and accrued interest payable to Tannya Irizarry, its COO and stockholder, amounting to $104,843 and $101,172 as March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. This outstanding loan to the Company is unsecured and bears interest at 8%.
 
GTI Corporate Transfer Agents, LLC is the Company’s transfer agent.  On August 20, 2015, Ms. Michelle Torres Colón was promoted to be the new managing director with a 34% ownership and/or interest. Ms. Tannya Irizarry is a board member and has a 33% ownership and/or interest. As of April 18, 2016, Ms. Janice Ortega is the assistant managing director with a 33% ownership and/or interest. Ms. Krystle Rundle returned as a board member.
 
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
 
In February 2016, the FASB amended the FASB Accounting standards Codification and created a new Topic 842, Leases (the "New Lease Standard"). The guidance requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date and recognize expenses on their income statements similar to the current Topic 840, Leases. The New Lease Standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. We will adopt this standard effective January 1, 2019. We have not finalized our assessment but believe this standard will have a significant impact on our consolidated balance sheet. The standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's results of operations or cash flows. The primary effect of adopting the New Lease Standard will be to record an asset and obligation for our operating lease which commenced in 2018.
 
EMPLOYEES
 
As of March 31, 2018, we had a total of two full-time employees who devoted substantial effort on our behalf. None of our employees are represented by a collective bargaining unit.  We entered into an employment agreement with Antonio Milici, M.D., Ph.D., to serve as our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Scientific Officer through January 31, 2022.  In consideration for his services, Dr. Milici will receive a base salary of $258, 000 per annum plus bonuses as may be determined by the Board of Directors at its sole discretion.  As part of his employment agreement, Dr. Milici is subject to non-disclosure and non-competition obligations and has transferred to the Company all of his interests in any idea, concept, technique, invention or written work.  We also entered into an employment agreement with Tannya L. Irizarry to serve as our Chief Administrative Officer through January 31, 2022.  Since May 2006, Ms. Irizarry is also our Chief Financial Officer (Interim). Ms. Irizarry’s base salary is $208,000 per annum.   There are no employee issues at this time.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2018, COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2017
 
We did not generate any revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.
 
We had total operating expenses of $202,173 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to total operating expenses of $244,564 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, a decrease of $42,391 from the prior period. The decrease was largely due to lower payroll expenses, which decreased by $126,749 over the prior period.
 
We had a net loss of $238,226 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to a net loss of $319,717 for the three months ended March 30, 2017, a decrease of $81,491 from the prior period.
 
 
13
 
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
We had total assets as of March 31, 2018 of $155,315, which included cash of $116,905, other assets – Deposit of $12,000 and total property and equipment net of $26,410.
 
We had total liabilities of $7,580,767 as of March 31, 2018, which included $694,762 of accounts payable, $4,304,459 of accrued liabilities, and $2,581,546 of notes and loans payable and other liabilities.
 
We had negative working capital of $7,463,862 and an accumulated deficit of $26,809,686 as of March 31, 2018.
 
It is estimated that we will require outside capital for the remainder of 2018 for the commercialization of GeneThera molecular assays as well as the development of our therapeutic vaccines. The Company intends to raise these funds by means of one or more private offerings of debt or equity securities or both. The Company is still in discussions with one or two groups to obtain financing through equity. No definitive agreements have been signed. There are no guarantees whether the Company will be able to secure such financing, and if the financing is secured, there are no guarantees whether the Company can achieve the goals laid out in its business plan fully. We will require significant additional funding in order to achieve our business plan.
 
Our longer-term working capital and capital requirements will depend upon numerous factors, including revenue and profit generation, pre-clinical studies and clinical trials, the timing and cost of obtaining regulatory approvals, the cost of filing, prosecuting, defending, and enforcing patent claims and other intellectual property rights, competing technological and market developments, and collaborative arrangements. Additional capital will be required in order to attain such goals. Such additional funds may not become available on acceptable terms and we cannot give any assurance that any additional funding that we do obtain will be sufficient to meet our needs in the long term.
 
In the future, we may be required to seek additional capital by selling debt or equity securities, selling assets, or otherwise be required to bring cash flows in balance when we approach a condition of cash insufficiency. The sale of additional equity or debt securities, if accomplished, may result in dilution to our then shareholders.
 
The Company has no off balance sheet commitments or arrangements.
 
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
 
Pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K (§ 229.305(e)), the Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item as it is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1).
 
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
 
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
In connection with the preparation of this annual report, an evaluation was carried out by the Company’s management, with the participation of the chief executive officer and the acting chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”)) as of March 31, 2018. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
 
Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management concluded, as of the end of the period covered by this report, that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective in recording, processing, summarizing, and reporting information required to be disclosed, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and such information was not accumulated and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
 
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process, under the supervision of the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer, designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
 
 
14
 
 
Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets.
 
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the board of directors.
 
Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 
Due to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
The Company’s management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, this assessment is to determine if there exist material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that creates a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement in annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Our assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting identified certain material weaknesses, therefore management considers its internal control over financial reporting to not be effective.
 
The matters involving internal control over financial reporting that our management considered to be material weaknesses were:
 
Insufficient accounting resources. Management had insufficient accounting resources, which insufficiency resulted in delays associated with our reporting of our operating results.  Accordingly, we determined as of March 31, 2018, that the insufficient accounting resources are part of the material weaknesses as stated above.
 
US GAAP knowledge. Management has engaged an external consultant to counter the internal lack of US GAAP knowledge. Nonetheless, internally there is a lack of internal US GAAP knowledge, therefore, the work of the external consultant does not entirely compensate for this internal deficiency. Accordingly, we determined as of March 31, 2018, that the internal lack of US GAAP knowledge is part of the material weaknesses as stated above.
 
As a result of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described above, the Company’s management has concluded that, as of March 31, 2018, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on the criteria in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the COSO. The Company intends to remedy its material weaknesses by:
 
engaging a new accounting consultant that has a working knowledge of GAAP accounting
 
This interim quarterly report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. We were not required to have, nor have we, engaged our independent registered public accounting firm to perform an audit of internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the rules of the Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
 
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
 
During the period ended March 31, 2018, management has implemented a variety of internal controls procedure and financial reporting oversight.  This has enabled the company to perform an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.  This assessment did identify material weaknesses; which management intends to remedy.
