1.Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business

 

DNA Testing Centers, Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Florida on July 3, 2014. On July 3, 2014, the Company acquired DNA Testing Centers of Canada Ltd. (“DNA Canada”). DNA Canada performs testing related to analyzing and monitoring an individual’s genetic makeup.

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a recurring nature considered necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the periods shown.

 

The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The results of operations and cash flows for the periods shown are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

 

These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. As at March 31, 2017, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $324,337, a working capital deficit of $114,947, and realized negative cash flows from operations totaling $3,797 for the period ended March 31, 2017. The Company currently has limited liquidity, and has not completed its efforts to establish a stabilized source of revenues sufficient to cover operating costs over an extended period of time. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

2.Significant Accounting Policies

 

(a)Basis of Presentation

 

These condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and are expressed in U.S. dollars. These condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, DNA Canada. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

 

(b)Comprehensive Loss

 

Comprehensive loss consists of net loss and other related gains and losses affecting stockholders’ equity that are excluded from net income or loss. As at March 31, 2017 and 2016, comprehensive loss includes cumulative translation adjustments for changes in foreign currency exchange rates during the period.

 

(c)Reclassifications

 

Certain of the prior year figures were reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation.

 

(d)Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its consolidated financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

DNA Testing Technologies

 

DNA testing generates genetic profile information by analyzing an organism’s unique genetic identity. The process of identifying unique variations in a genome is referred to as DNA testing. DNA testing is the standard method used for forensic identification, ancestry tracing and to confirm paternity and other family relationships.

 

We provide two types of DNA testing.

 

The first is composed of ancestral testing (both paternal and maternal), paternity testing (informational and legal), prenatal gender testing, and twin diagnostic testing.

 

The second tests for disease predisposition. These tests can identify a person’s genetic risk for cancer, heart conditions, inherited conditions, nutrition, fitness response, and drug response to medication.

 

A DNA profile can be determined from any type of biological specimen containing nuclear DNA, including blood or a tissue sample, such as a cheek swab or saliva.

 

DNA testing currently used for identity purposes examines specific sequences of DNA that exhibit variability between different individuals. Our tests use SNP genotyping, DNA sequencing and STR markers.

 

SNP Genotyping

 

A SNP is a Single Nucleotide Polymorphism. These are single base pairs in a genome that exhibit variation across the human population. There are two applications a SNP can be used for, one is whole genome association studies and the other is point mutation. In whole genome association studies, large amounts of data in the form of SNPs are gathered from a sample of people. Depending on what the target of the study is, associations can be made based on a person’s SNP profile. Here is a fictitious example: a person with an “A” base at position 765,659 on chromosome 11 has a 100 times higher likelihood of developing a rare form of cancer than a person with a “T” base. This is not a definitive diagnosis but can definitely be helpful information for the patient in terms of preventative care.

 

A SNP marker can also detect a genetic disease like cystic fibrosis. In this case the SNP (or 3 base pairs in the case of cystic fibrosis) will show definitively if a person has the disease or not. The association is 100%.

 

DNA Sequencing

 

In DNA sequencing, 300-500 base pair stretches of DNA are elucidated to show a more complete picture. DNA sequencing is helpful in determining genetic disorders that SNP analysis alone cannot do. DNA sequencing is also critical in the development of SNP assays.

 

STR Markers

 

A short tandem repeat (“STR”) is a portion of DNA in which small sequences are repeated a variable number of times. Typically, there are 10 to 25 possible variations of a given human STR marker, with each person having just one or two variations. By looking at a moderate number of STRs, a DNA profile is determined that is virtually unique for each individual. STRs are the most common genetic markers used in the industry to determine identity in forensic, paternity and security applications.

Our Products

 

We sell the following types of DNA test kits to medical practitioners and directly to consumers located in Canada:

 

Prenatal Gender Test

 

The Prenatal Gender Test determines gender after 7 weeks of gestation. This test works by looking for a Y chromosome within the mother’s blood.

 

Paternity Test – Informational

 

The Paternity Test uses a cheek swab collected from both the child and the alleged father to determine parentage. DNA Testing Centers uses a 15 genetic marker analysis.

 

Paternity Test - Legal

 

The Paternity Test uses a cheek swab collected from both the child and the alleged father to determine parentage. DNA Testing Centers uses a 15 genetic marker analysis. This test must be performed at a medical clinic and is designed to be used in legal proceedings to establish paternity.

 

Kinship Testing

 

A DNA kinship test determines the relationship between two or more individuals to assess an alleged relationship such as full or half siblings, grandparents and aunts or uncles.

 

Ancestral Origins Testing

 

The Ancestry test provides an estimated percentage of ancestry from four different population groups: Indigenous American, European, East Asian and Sub-Saharan African.

 

Genetic Predisposition

 

Genetic predisposition testing can identify a person’s predisposition for over 70 health conditions based upon their DNA.

 

Carrier Test Identification

 

Carrier test identification can identify individuals who carry a genetic disorder.

 

Drug Response Testing

 

Drug response testing identifies uses a person’s DNA to identify metabolism enzymes and transporters that have been linked to harmful reactions with common medical prescriptions.

 

The Testing Process

 

Our DNA test kits include swabs to collect a saliva sample, detailed instructions and pre-labeled packaging to send the sample to us. Upon receipt of the sample, it is registered in our database and sent to a third party laboratory to be interpreted. All tests are interpreted by either US laboratories accredited by CLIA and CAP or Canadian laboratories accredited by the Standard Council of Canada and CAP. After interpretation, the laboratory delivers the test results to us by email. Upon receipt, we enter the results in our customer database and deliver the results to the consumer by email.

 

8
 

 

The results for paternity tests and Y-chromosome relationship tests and grandparent or uncle or aunt tests, are interpreted within 4 to 5 business days of the lab’s receipt of the test. Ancestry origin tests are interpreted within 21 to 28 days of receipt. Genetic predisposition test including diet and fitness testing are interpreted within 28-42 days of receipt. We typically deliver the test results to the customer by email within 1 to 4 days after our receipt.

 

Suppliers

 

We purchase our DNA test components from Pro Printing and Mailing Services Inc. located at 1235 Trafalgar Road, Oakville, Ontario, L6H 3P1 and assemble the products at our facilities, or we purchase finished kits previously from Pathway Genomics Lab, 4045 Sorrento Valley Boulevard, San Diego, CA 92121.

 

Marketing Strategy

 

Our first product sale was in April of 2010. Sales generated from our website are placed by phone order. We presently offer our paternity testing kits for purchase on our website. We offer an online shopping cart featuring all of our products.

 

Our core marketing strategy is to brand our “DNA For Family” slogan for those seeking information that can be determined by DNA testing such as kinships and ancestry and our “DNA For Health” slogan for those seeking to improve their health by DNA testing to determine disease predisposition, nutrition and fitness testing.

 

We implemented our marketing plan in April of 2015.

 

    In April of 2015, we began social media campaigns on Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin and other websites to market our products;
  In May of 2015, we established Google AdWords and search engine optimization campaigns targeting consumers in Canada; and
  In June of 2015, we offered incentive for medical practitioners, medical facilities, and fitness centers.

 

In September of 2015, we offered event promotions to medical offices, clinics and fitness centers in Canada to demonstrate our products.

 

We also plan to attract medical practitioners and their customers through the existing relationships of our chief executive officer, president and director, Dr. Barjinder Sohal, a licensed physician, and Dr. Nitan Arora, our vice president and director, a chiropractic physician.

 

We believe that a marketing mix of social media, email advertising, print advertising in medical journals and health/ fitness publications, internet advertising and medical office and fitness center event promotions providing information and sample test kits is an optimal strategy to increase sales.

 

Raw Materials

 

Raw materials used by us in our DNA test kits are available from a variety of suppliers. We maintain a good relationship with our suppliers and do not anticipate that any of our suppliers will terminate their relationship with us in the near term. In the event, we are unable to obtain any of our raw materials from our suppliers, we believe that we could obtain alternative sources of any raw materials from other suppliers. We do not have contracts with our suppliers and we order our raw materials on an as-needed basis. We have not experienced any material adverse effect on our business as a result of shortages of raw materials. An unexpected interruption or a shortage in supply of raw materials could adversely affect our business derived from these products.

Research and Development

 

All of our research to date has been done by Dr. Barjinder Sohal, our chief executive officer, president and director who is a licensed physician in Canada and Dr. Nitan Arora, our vice president and director, who is a licensed chiropractic physician in Canada. We have not spent any amounts on research and development in the prior two years.

 

Property

 

We rent our office space at 2378 Parkhaven Boulevard, Oakville, Ontario, L6H 0E7, Canada from Navjot Nanda. This property is a lease of a 400 square foot office that is owned by Navjot Nanda, our treasurer, secretary, and director. We currently pay $1,000 per month, and occupy the premises on a month-to-month basis.

 

Seasonality

 

Our business is not affected by seasonal factors.

 

Intellectual Property

 

We have no registered or patented intellectual property. Trademarks and trade names distinguish the various companies from each other. If customers are unable to distinguish our products from those of other companies, we could lose sales to our competitors. We do not have any registered trademarks and trade names, so we only have common law rights with respect to infractions or infringements on its products. Many subtleties exist in product descriptions, offering and names that can easily confuse customers. The name of our principal products may be found in numerous variations of the name and descriptions in various media and product labels. This presents a risk of losing potential customers looking for our products and buying someone else’s because they cannot differentiate between them.

 

Overview

 

DNA Testing Centers, Corp., together with our wholly-owned subsidiary, DNA Centers of Canada, Ltd., are collectively referred to herein as the “Company,” “us” or “we.”

 

We were incorporated in the State of Florida on July 3, 2014, to acquire our wholly owned subsidiary DNA Centers of Canada, Ltd., a Canadian corporation formed on April 6, 2009, to distribute DNA testing products to consumers and medical practitioners in Canada.

 

We currently sell our DNA test kits directly to our customers. Our customers are both individuals and medical practitioners. Our DNA testing kits are sold directly to customers who place orders by telephone.

 

Going Concern

 

As reflected in the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements, we have accumulated deficit of $324,337 and a working capital deficit of $114,947 as of March 31, 2017.We currently have limited liquidity, and has not completed its efforts to establish a stabilized source of revenues sufficient to cover operating costs over an extended period of time. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan. The interim consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are 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 us to continue as a going concern.

Results of Operations

 

Three Months Ended March 31, 2017 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2016

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, we had revenues of $15,717 compared to $3,480 for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase in revenues was due to increased online advertising which led to an increase in sales.

 

Operating expenses decreased to $14,925 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $18,244 for the three months ended March 31, 2016, mainly due to the decrease in consulting fees.

 

We had a net loss of $1,055 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, which was less than the net loss of $17,460 for the three month ended March 31, 2016. The decrease in net loss mainly resulted from the increase in gross profit and a decrease in consulting fees.

 

The following table summarizes key items of comparison and their related increase (decrease) for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016:

 

  

Three Months Ended

2017

  

Three Months Ended

Revenues  $15,717   $3,480 
Direct costs   1,847    2,696 
Operating Expenses   14,925    18,244 
Net income (loss)  $(1,055)  $(17,460)

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our balance sheet as of March 31, 2017 reflects current assets of $5,607. We had cash in the amount of $2,559, which is insufficient to carry out our stated plan of operation for the next twelve months.

 

As of March 31, 2017, our company had accumulated losses of $324,337 since inception and had a working capital deficit of $114,947. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding our company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The continuation of our company as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from its stockholders, the ability of our company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations. The full and timely development and implementation of our business plan and growth strategy will require significant additional resources, and our company may not be able to obtain the funding necessary to implement its growth strategy on acceptable terms or at all.

 

An inability to obtain such funding could slow down or prevent our company from further development of our business. Our company intends to explore additional options to secure sources of capital, including the issuance of debt, and equity, including preferred equity securities or other equity securities. Our company does not have commitments from any third parties to provide additional financing. Our company might not succeed in raising additional equity capital or in negotiating and obtaining additional and acceptable financing when it needs it or at all. Our company’s ability to obtain additional capital will also depend on market conditions, national and global economies and other factors beyond its control. We cannot assure you that our company will be able to implement or capitalize on various financing alternatives or otherwise obtain required capital, the need for which is substantial given its operating loss history and its business and development plan. The terms of any future debt or equity funding that our company may obtain in the future may be unfavorable to our company and to its stockholders.

Financing Activities

Future Financings

 

We anticipate that we will have to generate enough revenue or enter into additional debt or equity financings to have enough cash to sustain operations for at least a year. However, we cannot make any assurance that we will be successful in generating enough revenue or obtain additional financings to sustain operations. Moreover, our independent auditors stated in their report on our audited financial statements that they have substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern without further financing.

 

Management may decide, based on market conditions, to seek future private placements if management believes such private placements are in the best interests of our company.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

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

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States necessarily requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. We regularly evaluate estimates and judgment based on historical experience and other relevant facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Revenue recognition

 

The Company derives revenue from the sale of DNA diagnostic testing kits in relation to analyzing and monitoring an individual’s genetic makeup. In accordance with ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition”, revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered, the sale price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

We do not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

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

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our president (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

As of the end of our quarter covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our president (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, our president (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer) concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in providing reasonable assurance in the reliability of our reports as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal control over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.

 

13
 

 

The matters involving internal control over financial reporting that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee due to a lack of a majority of independent members and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives of having segregation of the initiation of transactions, the recording of transactions and the custody of assets; and (3) ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by our president (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer) in connection with the review of our consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2017.

 

To address the material weaknesses set forth in items (2) and (3) discussed above, management performed additional analyses and other procedures to ensure that the consolidated financial statements included herein fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of our company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the SEC that permit our company to provide only the management’s report in this quarterly report.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

During the period covered by this report there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
