NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Nascent Biotech, Inc. (“Nascent” or the “Company”) was incorporated on March 3, 2014 under the laws of the State of Nevada.

In July, 2014, Jin-En entered into an Exchange Agreement with an entity formerly known as Nascent Biotech, Inc., a Nevada corporation which is now known as Nascent Biologics, Inc. (“Biologics”). As part of the Exchange Agreement, Jin-En changed its name to “Nascent Biotech Inc.” and the entity formerly known as “Nascent Biotech, Inc.”, changed its name to Nascent Biologics, Inc. and became the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary.

The Company is actively developing its primary asset Pritumumab for the treatment of brain cancer and pancreatic cancer. Nascent is also actively researching other cancers that have a high probability of benefiting from the therapeutic effects of Pritumumab because they share a common target. Pritumumab has shown to be very effective at low doses in previous clinical studies in Japan. Nascent is a pre-clinical stage biopharmaceutical company that focuses on biologic drug candidates that are preparing for initial clinical testing for the treatment of brain and pancreatic cancer.

On October 30, 2020 the Company filed additional data requests and additional testing of the product and additional materials to answer specific questions from the FDA to remove the partial clinical hold.

The Company has an open clinical trial to begin clinical trials on brain cancer patients projected to start January, 2021.

NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Company has elected a fiscal year ending on March 31.

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Company for the three and six months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2020. In the opinion of management, the unaudited financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented herein. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent quarters or for an entire year.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Nascent Biotech, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary Nascent Biologics, Inc. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. The main provisions of ASU No. 2016-02 require management to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for all leases. ASU 2016-02 retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases are substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases in the previous release’s guidance. The result of retaining a distinction between finance leases and operating leases is that under the lessee accounting model, the effect of leases in the statement of comprehensive income and the statement of cash flows is largely unchanged from previous U.S. GAAP. The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Table of Contents

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share, which requires presentation of both basic and diluted loss per share (“EPS”) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options and warrants, using the treasury stock method, convertible preferred stock, and convertible debt, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all potentially dilutive common shares if their effect is antidilutive.

We have identified the conversion features of certain of our convertible notes payable as derivatives. We estimate the fair value of the derivatives using the Black-Scholes pricing model. We estimate the fair value of the derivative liabilities at the inception of the financial instruments, at the date of conversions to equity and at each reporting date, recording a derivative liability, debt discount, and a gain or loss on change in derivative liabilities as applicable. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility and variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management’s judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees and consultants in accordance with FASB ASC 718. Stock-based compensation to employees is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite employee service period. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to other than employees in accordance with FASB ASC 505-50. Equity instruments issued to other than employees are valued at the earlier of a commitment date or upon completion of the services, based on the fair value of the equity instruments and is recognized as expense over the service period. The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based payments using the Black Scholes option-pricing model for common stock options and warrants and the closing price of the Company’s common stock for common share issuances.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses and shareholder loans. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.

Financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in our condensed consolidated balance sheets are categorized based upon a fair value hierarchy established by GAAP, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into the following levels:

Level 1 – Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable and can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 – Inputs reflecting management’s best estimates and assumptions of what market participants would use in pricing assets or liabilities at the measurement date. The inputs are unobservable in the market and significant to the valuation of the instruments.

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Table of Contents

The following table summarizes the change in the fair value of the derivative liabilities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020:

Fair value as of March 31, 2020	$	603,836
Additions at fair value		--
Transfers in (out) of Level 3		--
Change in fair value		(590,030	)
Fair value as of September 30, 2020	$	13,806

NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has a working capital deficit and has incurred losses from operations. The Company has no revenue to cover its operating costs and the Company will incur additional expenses in the future developing their product. These factors raise substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company engages in research and development activities that must be satisfied in cash secured through outside funding. The Company may offer noncash consideration and seek equity lines as a means of financing its operations. If the Company is unable to obtain revenue producing contracts or financing or if the revenue or financing it does obtain is insufficient to cover any operating losses it may incur, it may substantially curtail or terminate its operations or seek other business opportunities through strategic alliances, acquisitions or other arrangements that may dilute the interests of existing stockholders. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

On September 1, 2015, the Company entered five-year employment contracts with three of its officers and directors. Under the terms of the agreements the Company issued shares of common stock to the officers and directors equaling 11% of the outstanding shares of the Company as of the date of the contracts. As additional future shares are issued, the officers and directors are entitled to additional shares so their aggregate ownership percentage remains at 11% of the outstanding shares of the Company. The following table sets forth the shares earned under these contracts as of September 30, 2020:

Officer and Director	Initial Share Awards Under the Contracts		Additional Shares Earned to Maintain Ownership Percentage		Total Shares Earned

Chief Financial Officer		617,346		1,395,523		2,012,869

Total		2,263,602		4,988,945		7,252,547

During the year ended March 31, 2020 the Board of Directors amended the compensation plan so that the total amount per the officer agreements allow for the accrual of the full amount due each officer per their contract. The table below sets forth the annual amounts per the contracts:

NOTE 9 - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

As defined in (Financial Accounting Standards Board ASC 820), fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The Company utilized the market data of similar entities in its industry or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. The Company classifies fair value balances based on the observability of those inputs. FASB ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurement).

Table of Contents

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1	–	Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, marketable securities, and listed equities.

Level 2	–	Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date and includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. Instruments in this category generally include non-exchange-traded derivatives such as commodity swaps, interest rate swaps, options, and collars.

Level 3	–	Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value

As September 30, 2020, the Company believes the amounts reported for cash, payables, accrued liabilities and amounts due to related parties approximate their fair values due to the nature or duration of these instruments.

The following table represents the change in the fair value of the derivative liabilities during the quarter ended September 30, 2020:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Fair value of derivative liability as of March 31, 2020	$	--	$	--	$	603,836
Change in fair value due to conversion of debt						(144,120	)
Change in fair value of the derivative		--		--		(445,910	)
		--		--
Balance at September 30, 2020	$	--	$	--	$	13,806

The estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities at September 30, 2020 was calculated using the Binomial Lattice pricing model with the following assumptions:

Risk-free interest rate	.10	%
Expected life in years	0.25
Dividend yield	0	%
Expected volatility	46.00	%

NOTE 10 - NOTE PAYABLE

On March 25, 2020, the Company issued a secured note with face value of $50,000. The note matures on July 24, 2020 and bears interest at 7% per annum. In the event of a default the obligation increase to 150% of the outstanding balance and the interest rate increases to 12%.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERTIONS

This report contains forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those set forth on the forward-looking statements because of the risks set forth in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, general economic conditions, and changes in the assumptions used in making such forward looking statements.

Nascent Biotech, Inc (“Nascent” or the “Company”) was incorporated on March 3, 2014 under the laws of the State of Nevada. The Company is actively developing its primary asset Pritumumab for the treatment of brain cancer and pancreatic cancer. Nascent is also actively researching other cancers that have a high probability of benefiting from the therapeutic effects of Pritumumab because they share a common target. Pritumumab has shown to be very effective at low doses in previous clinical studies in Japan.

Nascent is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company that develops monoclonal antibodies for the treatment of various forms of cancer. The Company focuses on biologic drug candidates that are undergoing or have already completed initial clinical testing for the treatment of cancer and then seek to further develop those drug candidates for commercial use. Nascent currently is developing for the treatment of brain cancer and pancreatic cancer both of which we hold orphan drug status granted by the FDA.

In addition, very recently, Nascent has begun, in collaboration with academic and corporate partners, to assess the potential for pritumumab to be involved as both a treatment and a vaccine for the SARS-CoV-2 virus (responsible for COVID-19).

Overview

The Company is focused on developing pritumumab for the treatment of patients with brain cancer malignancies such as gliomas and astrocytomas. Current therapeutic strategies for brain cancer include the use of the chemotherapy, surgical intervention or radiation therapy. Because these treatments have marginal outcomes there exists a need to develop safer, more effective drugs. Temodar-the most commonly used Chemotherapeutic drug used to treat brain cancer, is attributed to only median rates of survival and many brain tumors are eligible for surgery. Moreover, even when removed, most brain tumors come back within one year post-operation. Today, with current standards of care, less than 60% of all brain cancer patients will live past the first year after diagnosis, and less than 35% of patients will live to five years. Glioblastoma, a particularly aggressive form of brain cancer that constitutes 42% of ALL brain and other nervous system cancers, has survival rates of 36.5% at 1 year and 5% at 5 years. (SEER Registry Data, September 15^th, 2016 (Central Brain Tumor Registry of the United States).

On March 31, 2017, the Company filed its IND submission with the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for clearance to begin Phase I clinical trials. On December 7, 2018, the Company received a letter from the FDA allowing it to use a specific lot of drug substance to begin phase 1 clinical trials. The FDA also requested additional data to remove the partial clinical hold. The Company is responding to additional data requests from the FDA requiring additional testing of the product and additional materials to answer specific questions from the FDA. The Company has an arrangement with a major oncology hospital to commence human clinical trials, first for brain cancer, both primary and metastatic.

Table of Contents

In May of 2020, Nascent announced a research collaboration to study, both in vitro and in vivo (mouse models), the ability of pritumumab to block the SARS-Cov-2 virus from infecting cells. This notion has been raised by a published article in the scientific literature (Yu et al. Journal of Biomedical Science (2016) 23:14 DOI 10.1186/s12929-016-0234-7), which specifically mentioned cell surface vimentin (the protein to which pritumumab binds selectively) as a potential target in the treatment of conditions related to coronaviruses. These preliminary studies are on-going. Further, in May of 2020, Nascent announced a joint collaboration with Manhattan BioSolutions, Inc (NY, NY) to employ Manhattan’s platform, based on the recombinant Mycobacterium bovis Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) vaccine, but engineered to target SARS-CoV-2. BCG is a live non-pathogenic bacterium that stimulates diverse innate and adaptive immune responses and is well-known for its long safety track record as a tuberculosis vaccine. Thus, with these collaborations, Nascent is investigating the potential utility of pritumumab as both a treatment for COVID-19 and a preventive vaccine for COVID-19.

Results of Operations

The Company recorded zero of revenue during the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

General and administrative expenses for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2020 was $110,390 and $168,171 compared to $41,890 and $ 473,618 in 2019.

This increase in expenses for the three and six months ended September 30, 2020 over the same period in 2019 was due to higher consulting fees and research and development in 2020 over 2019.

Research and development expenses for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2019 was $89,693 and $223,445 compared to $98,861 and $127,653 in the same period in 2020. This increase in expenses for the three and six months ended September 30, 2020 over the same period in 2019 reflected increased testing required in the filing with the FDA to remove the partial hold on the IND .

Total other income incurred in the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2019 was $142,711 and $490,087, compared to other expense of $4,328 and $4,317 in the same periods in 2020. Other income in 2020 consisted of a gain on the change of fair value of $640,030 offset by interest expense of $146,946 and finance costs of $3,000.

For the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2020, our net loss was $418,294 and $622,265 compared to a net loss of $331,856 and $605,594 for the same periods in 2019. The difference between the periods relates to higher general and administrative cost offset by the change in fair value in 2020 over 2019.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s liquidity and capital is dependent on the capital it can raise to continue the Company’s testing and clinical trials of its product. The Company projects it must raise approximately $15-20 million to complete its Phase I and Phase II clinical studies.

There are no agreements or understandings about future loans by or with the officers, directors, principals, affiliates, or shareholders of the Company. The Company will continue to raise outside capital through loans, equity sales and possible licensing agreements. These factors raise substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern

At September 30, 2020, the Company’s negative working capital of $811,012. Current assets consist of cash of $99,198 and current liabilities $746,756 consisting of accounts payable and accrued expense of $715,154, convertible notes of $11,250, due related parties of $170,000 plus derivative liability of $13,806.

Net cash used in operating activities in the six months period ended September 30, 2019 was $237,072 compared to net cash used of $594,020 in the same period in 2020. The variance between the same periods in 2019 and 2020 relates mainly to a higher loss in the six months period ending September 30, 2020 over the same period in 2019 offset by the change in derivative liability and decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses with a due to related parties increase of $170,000.

Table of Contents

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months period ended September 30, 2019 was $111,071 compared to $690,000 in the same period in 2020. Cash provided was a result of a note payable of $50,000 and the issuance of preferred shares for cash of $640,000 in 2020 while the conversion of warrants of $1,017 and the sale of preferred shares of $110,000 in 2019.

As of September 30, 2020, the Company had total assets of $99,198 and total liabilities of $910,210. Stockholders’ deficit as of September 30, 2020 was $811,012. This compares to a stockholders’ deficit of $2,875,704 as of March 31, 2020. Liabilities decreased in 2020 mainly to the conversion of related party accrued compensation into common stock plus lower derivative liability and the payment of accounts payable verses March 31, 2020.

NEED FOR ADDITIONAL FINANCING:

Our current capital needs are estimated to be approximately $15-20 million. This will take us through Phase I/II clinical trials which are scheduled to begin in January, 2021.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We had no off-balance sheet arrangements or guarantees of third party obligations at September 30, 2020

Inflation

We believe that inflation has not had a significant impact on our operations since inception.

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable.

ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Under the supervision and the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation as of September 30, 2020, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2020 Such conclusion reflects the identification of material weakness as follows: (1) lack of accounting proficiency of our chief executive officer who is our sole officer and our principal accounting officer which has resulted in a reliance on part-time outside consultants to perform substantially all of our accounting functions, (2) a lack of adequate segregation of duties and necessary corporate accounting resources in our financial reporting process and accounting function, and (3) lack of control procedures that include multiple levels of review. Until we can remedy these material weaknesses, we have engaged third party consultants and accounting firm to assist with financial reporting.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the six months ended September 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
