Item 1.

Business


Corporate History and Background


EPHS Holdings, Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 28, 1999 under the name Quantum Bit Induction Technology, Inc. On November 14, 2011, the Company filed Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation changing its name to Quantumbit, Inc. On September 26, 2013, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment changing its name to Sertant, Inc. Then on January 11, 2018, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment with the Nevada Secretary of State changing its name to EPHS Holdings, Inc.


The Company’s original plan was to build and use technology to mine gold, platinum, precious metals and rare earth metals in situ from seawater and from slurries created from land-based ores. The Company’s property was located in Nevada. The Company also explored developing technology to selectively electroplate precious and rare earth metals from solution or seawater onto collector electrodes. These endeavors were not successful, and the Company has since ceased operations with respect to these endeavors.


With no operations, the Company was placed into receivership on February 15, 2017 (Case No. 2017-10544, as filed in the District Court of Harris County, Texas, 151st Judicial District) and remained in receivership until December 2017. In July 2017, the court appointed Angela Collette as exclusive receiver over the Company. Angela Collette was also appointed as the Company’s president. In February 2017, one of the Company’s shareholders sued the Company for breach of fiduciary duties of care, loyalty and good faith to the Company’s shareholders. In September 2017, the Company entered into an agreement with the shareholder and the receiver to resolve the legal claim by issuing 4,750,000 shares of common stock to the shareholder. On January 11, 2018, the Company’s name was changed to EPHS Holdings, Inc.


On December 28, 2017, the Company issued to EPHS, Inc., a Florida corporation, 75 million shares of the Company’s common stock for $110,000 which represented approximately 62% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock.


The Company was seeking to effect a merger, exchange of capital stock, asset acquisition or other similar business combination (a “Business Combination”) with an operating or development stage business (the “Target Business”) which desires to utilize our status as a reporting corporation under the Exchange Act. In furtherance thereof, we signed a Letter of Intent to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Emerald Plants Health Source, Inc., a Quebec corporation (“Emerald”). Emerald is a Canada based company engaged in the cultivation of cannabis because we are seeking a new business opportunity. On February 27, 2018, pursuant to the terms of a Share Exchange Agreement, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Emerald and Emerald became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.


Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Share Exchange Agreement, executed between the Company and the shareholders of Emerald, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Emerald in exchange for the issuance of 20,000,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock. Paolo Gervasi and Calogero “Sal” Caruso were the sole shareholders of Emerald and received a total of 14 million shares of our common stock. The remaining 6,000,000 shares were issued to consultants, including 1,250,000 shares to our president, Gianfranco “John” Bentivoglio for services rendered as part of the negotiations of the Share Exchange Agreement. For more information regarding the acquisition of Emerald you are urged to read the Share Exchange Agreement in its entirety, which is attached as an exhibit to this Registration Statement. The transaction closed on February 27, 2018.


The 20,000,000 restricted shares of our common stock that were issued pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement represented approximately 14% of the then issued and outstanding common stock of EPHS Holdings.


As a result of the transactions affected by the Share Exchange Agreement, Emerald became a wholly owned subsidiary of EPHS Holdings. Emerald is a development stage company with limited operations and no revenues to date. Emerald’s business plan is to cultivate and distribute cannabis entirely within Canada.


With the acquisition of Emerald, the Company will be dependent on Mr. Gervasi and Mr. Calegero to continue managing the operations of Emerald. At this time, we have no employment agreement with either and there can be no assurance that they will remain with the Company.

Business Operations


We currently have no operations and only nominal cash for ongoing business operations. Mr. Bentivoglio is currently funding the Company’s current operations in exchange for additional equity. However, there is no assurance that either Mr. Bentivoglio or a third party will continue to fund our operations. We have no commitment for either additional debt or equity funding from any source.


The Company’s primary operating subsidiary, Emerald, is currently awaiting its commercial cultivation license, identified as a license for Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulation (“ACMPR”), from Health Canada. Only upon receipt of the ACMPR may the Company commence its commercial operations. While the Company anticipates receiving its ACMPR within the next 6-8 weeks, there can be no assurance that the license will be granted or that the conditions imposed upon the Company in connection with the license will not be materially burdensome. As of April 12, 2018, the Company has filed responses to Health Canada’s second request for information. The Company does not anticipate additional requests for information from Health Canada.


After Health Canada grants the Company its ACMPR license, the Company will commence cultivation of its initial cannabis crops. The initial crops will be submitted to Health Canada as part of the Company’s application for a sales license. The Company anticipates obtaining a sales license approximately 4 to 6 weeks thereafter. The Company plans to begin commercial sales within 4 months of receiving the ACMPR license.


Until such time that the Company can begin commercial operations, the Company will continue to rely on its existing cash reserves and additional funding from Mr. Bentivoglio. After the Company obtains the ACMPR license, the Company plans to seek additional debt and equity financing to fund its operations.


Presently, the Company has three full-time employees. Mr. Bentivoglio is the Company’s sole officer and director. Paolo Gervasi and Calogero “Sal” Caruso became employees of the Company after the Company’s acquisition of Emerald. None of the Company’s three employees collects a salary at this time. In the next twelve months, assuming the commencement of commercial operations, we expect to engage approximately 15 full-time employees and 10 temporary or part-time employees. The Company also anticipates entering into employment agreements with Messrs. Bentivoglio, Gervasi and Caruso in the near future.


Emerald


Emerald is the Company’s sole operating subsidiary. Emerald is based in Quebec, Canada and conducts its operations entirely within Canada. Emerald is awaiting approval of its application to Health Canada to secure a ACMPR commercial cultivation license.


After Emerald obtains its ACMPR, it will be required to apply for an additional sales license. In applying for a sales license for cannabis, Emerald will be required to submit its first two cannabis crops to Health Canada for inspection. The inspection will examine the cannabis for contaminants and environmental control. Once the license is granted, Emerald be able to sell cannabis to licensed distributors throughout Canada. While Emerald has not yet entered into any agreements or other arrangements with licensed distributors, Emerald plans to only sell to distributors who will distribute its cannabis solely in Canada.


Commercial Cultivation of Cannabis:


In order to become licensed in Canada and the province of Quebec to grow and sell cannabis, licensed commercial cannabis companies must:


·

Maintain their license in good standing;

·

Establish personnel security measures;

·

Comply with and implement good production practices;

·

Comply with packaging, shipping, labeling, import and export requirements, and record-keeping requirements; and

·

Comply with client registration and ordering requirements.


Labeling, testing and notice requirements for cannabis products include the following:


·

Cannabis oil must include the carrier oil used. For cannabis oil in dosage form, it must include the number of capsules or units in the container, the net weight, and the volume of each capsule or unit;



2



 


·

Fresh and dried marijuana must include the percentage of THC and CBD that could be yielded, taking into account the potential to convert THC-Acid and CBD-Acid into THC and CBD;

·

The accuracy of weight and volume of products in packages must be between 95% and 105%;

·

All analytical testing required to be done using validated methods (e.g., contaminants, disintegration, and solvent residue testing) and requiring disintegration testing for cannabis oil in capsules or similar dosage forms; and

·

Notification to the Minister of Health required prior to commencing a recall.


The Facility


Emerald currently leases a facility of approximately 8,400 square foot facility. Before the ACMPR license is granted, the facility must contain the following physical safety measures (as described further below):


·

Walk-in vault to comply with the Health Canada Security Directives for Controlled Substances;

·

Building security, including access control, video surveillance and motion detectors;

·

Equipment to grow the cannabis; and

·

Laboratory equipment to monitor and test product quality.


The facility will be subject to Good Manufacturing Practices (“GMP”). GMP is the national standard for the production of pharmaceuticals. A GMP facility is under strict environmental control to ensure that manufacturing of sterile, potent and uncontaminated products.


The facility has been designed to meet all regulatory standards and to operate at current GMP requirements. It will have standard operating procedures (“SOPs”) in place to ensure proper manufacturing, record keeping and retention, environmental cleaning, and facility and equipment monitoring.


Government Regulation of Cannabis


The use of marijuana for medical purposes in Canada is governed by the Marijuana for Medical Purposes Regulations (“MMPR”). MMPR deals exclusively with the medical use of marijuana and does not address the issue of legalizing marijuana for general use.


The Canadian government does not endorse the use of marijuana, but the courts have required reasonable access to a legal source of marijuana when authorized by a physician.


MMPR also sets forth the requirements for licensed producers of medical marijuana. These regulations include:


Physical Security Measures

Good Production Practices

Packaging, Labeling and Shipping Requirements

Import and Export permit, if applicable

Security Clearance


Physical Security Measures


Production sites need to be located indoors, and not in a private dwelling.


The MMPR sets out physical security requirements that are necessary to secure sites where licensed producers conduct activities with marijuana other than storage.


Health Canada has established security requirements for the storage of all controlled substances including dried marijuana by licensed producers.


All applicants for a ACMPR license must demonstrate to Health Canada that they meet these security requirements. Licensed producer sites are subject to compliance and enforcement measures, including regular audits and inspections by Health Canada.


Good Production Practices


Licensed producers are subject to Good Production Practices that are meant, among other things, to ensure the cleanliness of the premises and equipment. The licensed producer is required to employ a quality assurance person with appropriate training, experience, and technical knowledge to approve the quality of dried marijuana prior to making it available for sale.



3



 


Product Quality


One of the requirements under Good Production Practices is that licensed producers must test dried marijuana for microbial and chemical contaminants.


Other Requirements


Licensed producers must also meet other requirements under Good Production Practices under the MMPR including, but not limited to:


·

Sanitation Program;

·

Standard Operating Procedures; and

·

Establishment of a Recall System.


Packaging, Labeling and Shipping - Consumer Information


Dried marijuana must be packaged in a tamper-evident and child-resistant container and contain standard information about the product (including but not limited to, the weight in grams and the packaging date). In addition, all licensed producers are required to attach a client-specific label, similar to a patient-specific prescription drug label, to the package of dried marijuana.


As described above, labeling, testing and notice requirements for cannabis products will include the following:


·

Cannabis oil must include the carrier oil used. For cannabis oil in dosage form, it must include the number of capsules or units in the container, the net weight, and the volume of each capsule or unit;

·

Fresh and dried marijuana must include the percentage of THC and CBD that could be yielded, taking into the account the potential to convert THC-Acid and CBD-Acid into THC and CBD;

·

The accuracy of weight and volume of products in packages must be between 95% and 105%;

·

All analytical testing required to be done using validated methods (e.g., contaminants, disintegration, and solvent residue testing) and requiring disintegration testing for cannabis oil in capsules or similar dosage forms; and

·

Notification to the Minister of Health required prior to commencing a recall.


Import and Export Permit


A licensed producer must obtain a permit from the Minister of Health prior to importing or exporting marijuana. At this time, the Company has no plans to export marijuana.


Security Clearance


The following individuals are required to have a valid security clearance under the MMPR:


·

the applicant (if an individual);

·

all officers and directors of a corporate applicant;

·

the proposed Senior Person in Charge (as defined in the MMPR);

·

the proposed Responsible Person in Charge (as defined in the MMPR); and

·

the proposed Alternate Person(s) in Charge (as defined in the MMPR).


In addition to compliance with statutory guidelines prescribed at the federal level, controlled substances are also subject to regulation at the provincial level. Though provincial-controlled substances laws often mirror federal law, because the provinces are separate jurisdictions, they may separately schedule any product candidates as well. While some Canadian provinces automatically schedule a drug based on federal action, other provinces schedule drugs through rulemaking or a legislative action. Provincial scheduling may delay commercial sale of any product for which we obtain federal regulatory approval and adverse scheduling could have a material adverse effect on the commercial attractiveness of such product.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors


An investment in our securities is highly speculative and subject to a high degree of risk. Only those who can bear the risk of the entire loss of their investment should participate. Prospective investors should carefully consider the following factors, among others, prior to making an investment in the securities described herein.


AS SUCH, INVESTORS SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THEY MAY BE REQUIRED TO BEAR THE FINANCIAL RISKS OF THIS INVESTMENT FOR AN INDEFINITE PERIOD OF TIME AND MUST BE ABLE TO WITHSTAND A TOTAL LOSS OF THEIR INVESTMENT.


THE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES DESCRIBED BELOW ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES WE FACE. ADDITIONAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES NOT PRESENTLY KNOWN TO US OR THAT WE CURRENTLY DEEM IMMATERIAL MAY ALSO IMPAIR OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS. IF ANY OF THE FOLLOWING RISKS ACTUALLY OCCUR, OUR BUSINESS COULD BE MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECTED. IN SUCH CASE, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO PROCEED WITH ITS PLANNED OPERATIONS AND YOUR INVESTMENT MAY BE LOST ENTIRELY.


RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE COMPANY'S PROSPECTIVE BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS:


We have no assets and no operations.


We have nominal assets and no operations. There can be no assurance that the operations of Emerald will be profitable. We will need to raise additional working capital. We have no commitment for funding and there can be no assurance that we will be able to secure additional debt or equity financing and, if obtained, will be available on terms acceptable to us.


RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION:


It is possible investors may lose their entire investment.


Prospective investors should be aware that if we are not successful in our contemplated business activities, your entire investment in the Company could become worthless. Even if we are successful, in securing financing, there can be no assurances that we will generate sufficient revenues to continue operations.


Emerald has no proven ability to generate revenues, and any investment in our company is risky.


Neither the Company nor Emerald has a meaningful operating history so it will be difficult for you to evaluate an investment in our stock. We cannot assure that we will generate revenues or be profitable. As a result, investors will bear the risk of complete loss of their investment in the event we are not successful.


Our auditors have raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.


As of December 31, 2017, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $4,011,584. As a result, our independent public accounting firm has expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is dependent upon its ability to secure additional financing and generate sufficient cash flows to meet its obligations on a timely basis.


We need to raise additional capital to fund our operations.


We do not currently have sufficient capital to fund our current or anticipated operations. We may be unable to obtain additional capital when required. Future business development activities, as well as our administrative requirements (such as salaries, insurance expenses and general overhead expenses, as well as legal compliance costs and accounting expenses) will require a substantial amount of additional capital and cash flow.


We may pursue sources of additional capital through various financing transactions or arrangements, including joint venture projects, debt financing, equity financing or other means. We may not be successful in identifying suitable financing transactions in the time period required, or at all, and we may not be able to obtain the capital we require by other means. If we do not succeed in raising additional capital, we will not be able to implement our business plan.




5



 


Any additional capital raised through the sale of equity may dilute the ownership percentage of our stockholders. Raising any such capital could also result in a decrease in the fair market value of our equity securities because our assets would be owned by a larger pool of outstanding equity. The terms of securities we issue in future capital transactions may be more favorable to our new investors, and may include preferences, superior voting rights and the issuance of other derivative securities, and issuances of incentive awards under equity employee incentive plans, which may have a further dilutive effect.


Our ability to obtain financing may be impaired by factors such as the capital markets (both generally and in our industry in particular), our limited operating history, national unemployment rates and the departure of key employees. Further, economic downturns will likely decrease our revenues and may increase our requirements for capital. If the amount of capital we are able to raise from financing activities, together with our revenues from operations, if any, is not sufficient to satisfy our capital needs (even to the extent that we reduce our operations), we may be required to cease our operations, divest our assets at unattractive prices or obtain financing on unattractive terms.


The successful implementation of our business plan is reliant upon the receipt of government licenses.


We have submitted an application to Health Canada to secure a ACMPR. There is no assurance that the license will be granted or that the conditions imposed upon the Company in connection with the license will not be materially burdensome. In addition to the ACMPR, the Company will be required to apply for and obtain a sales license from Health Canada.  If the Company is unsuccessful in obtaining any required license or obtains such licenses on unfavorable terms, the Company will be unable to implement its business plan.   


Emerald is based outside of the United States which may have an adverse impact on U.S. investors.


Our principal operating subsidiary, Emerald, is a Canadian corporation. As a result, U.S. investors may be limited in their ability to enforce a judgement obtained in U.S. courts against Emerald or any of its officers and directors located outside of the United States.


We may not be able to operate our business successfully or generate sufficient cash flows to meet our operational requirements


The Company’s success will depend on the ability of its Emerald subsidiary to generate sufficient cash flow to meet the Company’s operational requirements.  If the Company, through its Emerald subsidiary is unable to do so, we may not be able to implement our business strategy. There is no commitment for additional equity or debt financing. Even if we were to obtain funding, there can be no assurance that it will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.


We are dependent upon our CEO for his services and any interruption in his ability to provide his services could cause us to cease operations.


The loss of the services of Gianfranco Bentivoglio, our sole officer and director, could have a material adverse effect on us. We do not maintain any life insurance on Mr. Bentivoglio. The loss of his services could cause investors to lose all or a part of their investment.


Our business will be adversely affected if we are not able to establish and develop an effective work force.


A significant component to our growth strategy is attracting and retaining qualified, creative, innovative and experienced personnel. Our business will be adversely affected if we were unable to succeed in developing an effective workforce. We currently do not employ a workforce capable of generating revenue. Our future success will also depend on our ability to attract, retain and motivate other highly skilled employees. Competition for personnel in our industry is intense. We may not be able to assimilate or retain highly qualified employees now or in the future. If we do not succeed in attracting new personnel or retaining and motivating our current personnel, our business will be adversely affected.


RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH A COMPANY ENGAGED IN THE CULTIVATION AND SALE OF CANNABIS:


We will be subject to significant governmental regulations.


We will be subject to significant government regulation. Regulations such as compliance with GMP, evolving government regulations to the use, growing and distribution of cannabis may adversely impact our operating results. While we intend to comply with all government restrictions, there is no assurance that we will be able to comply with ever changing rules and regulations impacting the cannabis industry.



6



 


Canada Health imposes substantial requirements on the production and distribution of cannabis. Compliance with these requirements can be costly. More stringent regulations could result in significant compliance costs. Delays in obtaining certifications and regulatory approvals could result in substantial legal and administrative expenses and additionally, conditions imposed in connection with such approvals. The cannabis business also may be affected by legislation and regulations imposing new or greater obligations related to, for example, assisting law enforcement, minimizing environmental impacts, protecting customer privacy, or addressing other issues that affect our business.


Recreational use of cannabis is still illegal throughout Canada.


Canada’s prime minister has advocated to decriminalize cannabis and permit its recreational use. On April 13, 2017, the Canadian federal government introduced legislation decriminalizing cannabis pursuant to An Act Respecting Cannabis and to Amend the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act, the Criminal Code and other Acts (“Bill C-45”). While passage of the law is anticipated to occur in late 2018, there can be no assurance that Bill C-45 or any other similar legislation will become law. If passed, the distribution and sale of cannabis for recreational use will be subject to extensive regulation. Failure of the government to complete legalization of recreational use of cannabis and the possibility of additional federal and provincial regulations may adversely affect Company operations.


We will have many competitors.


The cannabis market in Canada faces intense competition. Many of our competitors may be larger and have greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources than we do.


Our ability to compete may depend upon factors outside of our control.


We will encounter factors outside of our control which may inhibit Emerald’s ability to successfully grow, market and sell cannabis throughout Canada. These factors may include:


·

Increased government regulation at both the federal and provincial level;

·

Changes in consumer behavior to use cannabis for either recreational or medical purposes;

·

Price fluctuation in cannabis;

·

Natural disasters which may damage our facility; and

·

The strength of the economy.


In order to remain competitive, we must have the ability to respond promptly and efficiently to the ever-changing marketplace. We will have to adapt by revamping our own strategies and tactics to adequately respond in changing competitive business climates.


RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR COMMON STOCK:


There is currently a limited market for our common stock.


There is currently a limited market for our common stock. We do not expect that a market will develop in the foreseeable future. The lack of a market may impair the ability to sell shares at the time investors wish to sell them or at a price considered to be reasonable. In the event that a market develops, we expect that it would be extremely volatile.


We do not anticipate paying dividends on our Common Stock.

 

A dividend has never been declared or paid in cash on our common stock. We do not anticipate such a declaration or payment for the foreseeable future. We expect to use future earnings, if any, to fund business growth. Therefore, stockholders will not receive any funds absent a sale of their shares. We cannot assure stockholders of a positive return on their investment when they sell their shares nor can we assure that stockholders will not lose the entire amount of their investment.




7



 


Our Chief Executive Officer and majority shareholder may influence matters to be voted on and his interests may differ from, or be adverse to the interests of other stockholders.


The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and majority stockholder controls a majority of our outstanding common stock. Accordingly, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and majority stockholder possesses significant influence over the Company on matters submitted to the stockholders for approval, including the election of directors, mergers, consolidations, the sale of all or substantially all our assets, and also the power to prevent or cause a change in control. This amount of control gives him substantial ability to determine the future of our Company, and as such, he may elect to close the business, change the business plan or make any number of other major business decisions without the approval of shareholders. The interest of our majority stockholder may differ from the interests of our other stockholders and could therefore result in corporate decisions that are averse to other stockholders.


Legislation, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, may make it difficult for us to retain or attract officers and directors.


We may be unable to attract and retain qualified officers, directors and members of board committees required to provide for our effective management as a result of rules and regulations which govern publicly-held companies. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act has resulted in a series of rules and regulations that increase responsibilities and liabilities of directors and executive officers. We are a small company with a limited operating history and no revenues. This may influence the decisions of potential candidates we may recruit as directors or officers. The perceived increased personal risk associated with these recent changes may deter qualified individuals from accepting these roles.


Item 2.

Financial Information


We currently have no operations and will require a significant cash infusion whether in the form of debt or equity financing to continue operations.


Results of Operations for EPHS Holdings


For the Years Ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.


We generated no revenues in either 2017 or 2016. Except for a write-off attributable to share based legal settlement of $2,850,000 in 2017, expenses in 2017 totaled $110,437 and $6,161 in 2016. These expenses were administrative in nature.


Net Loss


Net Loss for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $(2,960,437) and $(6,161) respectively.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

Item 10.

Recent Sale of Unregistered Securities.


In October 2017, the Company issued 4,750,000 shares of common stock, valued at $0.60 per share according to the OTC market, to a shareholder to resolve a legal claim by the shareholder.


On December 28, 2017, the Company issued to EPHS, Inc., a Florida corporation, whose president is Gianfranco Bentivoglio, 75,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for $110,000.


On February 27, 2018 the Company issued 20 million shares of its common stock to the former shareholders of Emerald and certain consultants in connection with the acquisition of Emerald.


On April 5, 2018 the Company issued 25,000 shares pursuant to a Consulting Agreement.


The Company believes that the issuances and sale of the restricted shares were exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Act as privately negotiated, isolated, non-recurring transactions not involving any public solicitation. The recipients in each case represented their intention to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view to the distribution thereof. Appropriate restrictive legends are affixed to the stock certificates issued in such transactions. All recipients of restricted shares either received adequate information about the Company or had access, through employment, relation and/or business relationships with the Company to such information.


1tem 11.

Description of Registrant’s Securities to be Registered


The Company is authorized to issue 2,420,000,000 shares of capital stock of which 2,400,000,000 are shares of common stock, par value $0.001, of which 133,600,892 are issued and outstanding and 20,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, $0.0001 par value, none of which are issued and outstanding. Holders of our Series A Preferred shares are entitled to one vote on any matters brought to a vote of the shareholders. Each Series A Preferred Share may be exchanged for one share of the Company’s common stock. The conversion ratio for the Series A Preferred Shares shall remain fixed until June 30, 2018 after which date they will be subject to any capital reorganization.


The future issuance of all or part of its remaining authorized common stock may result in substantial dilution in the percentage of its common stock held by its then existing stockholders. The Company may value any common stock issued in the future on an arbitrary basis. The issuance of common stock for future services or acquisitions or other corporate actions may have the effect of diluting the value of the shares held by the Company’s investors and might have an adverse effect on any trading market for the Company’s common stock that may develop.


Each share of common stock entitles a stockholder to one vote on all matters upon which shareholders are permitted to vote. No stockholder has any preemptive right or other similar right to purchase or subscribe for any additional securities issued by us, and no stockholder has any right to convert the common stock into other securities. No shares of common stock are subject to redemption or any sinking fund provisions. All the outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid and non-assessable. Our shareholders of common stock are entitled to dividends when, as and if declared by our board from funds legally available therefore and, upon liquidation, to a pro-rata share in any distribution to shareholders. We do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

Item 12.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

 

To the fullest extent permitted under Nevada law, our directors and officers shall not be personally liable to the Company or our stockholders for damages for breach of such director’s or officer’s fiduciary duty. The effect of this is to eliminate our rights and the rights of our stockholders (through stockholders’ derivative suits on behalf of the Company) to recover damages against a director or officer for breach of the fiduciary duty of care as a director or officer (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior), except under certain situations defined by statute. We believe that the indemnification provisions in our articles are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.


Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

EPHS Holdings, Inc. (formerly known as Sertant, Inc.)

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of EPHS Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity, 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 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 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 financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's 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 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 misstatements of the 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 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 financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


Emphasis of Matter


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will become a going concern. As described in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has no operations nor business plans, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

EPHS Holdings, Inc.

(formerly known as Sertant, Inc.)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2017 and 2016


NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS DESCRIPTION


EPHS Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on January 28, 1999. The Company’s original plan was to build and use technology to mine gold, platinum, precious metals and rare earth metals in situ from seawater and from slurries created from land-based ores. The Company was originally known as Quantum Induction Technology, Inc. On November 30, 2011, the Company changed its name to Quantumbit, Inc. and continued to operate under this name until September 26, 2013, when the Company’s name was changed to Sertant, Inc.


The Company ceased operations in January 2015.


In February 2017, one of the Company’s shareholders sued the Company for breach of fiduciary duties of care, loyalty and good faith to the Company’s shareholders. In July 2017, the court appointed an exclusive receiver over the Company. In September 2017, the Company entered into an agreement with the shareholder and the receiver to resolve the legal claim by issuing 4,750,000 shares of common stock to the shareholder. On January 11, 2018, the Company’s name was changed to EPHS Holdings, Inc.


The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31.


NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Basis of Presentation


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. In the opinion of management, these financials include all necessary adjustments to make them not misleading.


Going Concern

 

Historically, as the Company has no business revenues, it has mostly relied upon funds contributed by shareholders to finance its overhead. Management may raise additional capital by retaining net earnings or through future public or private offerings of the Company’s stock or through loans from private investors, although there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such financing. The Company’s failure to do so could have a material and adverse effect on it and its shareholders.


Use of Estimates


These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. Because a precise determination of assets and liabilities, and correspondingly revenues and expenses, depends on future events, the preparation of financial statements for any period necessarily involves the use of estimates and assumption an example being assumptions in the valuation of stock options. Actual amounts may differ from these estimates. These interim financial statements have, in management's opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the accounting policies summarized below.


Cash and Cash Equivalents


The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments, purchased with an original maturity of three months or less, to be cash equivalents.


Net Loss Per Share


Net loss per share is based on the weighted average number of common shares and common shares equivalents outstanding during the years.




F-7



 


EPHS Holdings, Inc.

(formerly known as Sertant, Inc.)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2017 and 2016


Other Comprehensive Income


The Company has no material components of other comprehensive income (loss), and accordingly, net income (loss) is equal to the comprehensive loss in all years.


Stock-Based Compensation


The Company follows ASC 718-10, Stock Compensation, which addresses the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, with a primary focus on transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. ASC 718-10 requires measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award (with limited exceptions).


Effect of Recent Accounting Pronouncements


From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, we believe that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations upon adoption.


NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN


The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company does not have cash or other current assets, nor does it have an established source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern.


The Company has earned no revenue from operations during the year ended December 31, 2017, and has an accumulated deficit of $4,011,584. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to develop additional sources of capital and ultimately acquire an entity which the Company hopes will become profitable at some time in the near future. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Management is seeking new capital to revitalize the Company.


In the coming year, the Company’s foreseeable cash requirements will relate to continual development of the operations of its business, maintaining its good standing and making the requisite filings with the SEC, and the payment of expenses associated with operations and business developments. The Company may experience a cash shortfall and be required to raise additional capital.


NOTE 4 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY


In October 2017, the Company issued 4,750,000 shares of common stock as a special dividend, valued at $0.60 per share according to the OTC markets, to a shareholder to resolve a legal claim by the shareholder.


On December 28, 2017, the Company issued 75,000,000 shares of common stock, valued at $0.001, as share based compensation for $110,000.


As of December 31, 2017, 122,600,892 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

Emerald Plants Health Source (E.P.H.S.) Inc.

 

We have audited the balance sheets of Emerald Plants Health Source (E.P.H.S.) Inc. (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2017 and 2016 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the fiscal years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the fiscal years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will become a going concern. As described in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company has no operations nor business plans, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to become a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Emerald Plants Health Source (E.P.H.S) Inc.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2017 and 2016


Note 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS


Emerald is a recently formed Canada based company. Emerald’s operations are based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Emerald has applied and submitted an application to Health Canada to secure a commercial cultivation license identified as a license for Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulation: “ACMPR.” It has generated no revenues to date.


After securing the license, Emerald will be required to apply for a sales license. In applying for a sales license for cannabis, Emerald will be required to submit its first cannabis crop for inspection. The inspection will examine the cannabis for contaminants and environmental control. If the license is granted, Emerald be able to sell cannabis to licensed distributors throughout Canada.


Note 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Basis of presentation


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s year-end is June 30.


Use of Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Cash and Cash Equivalents


The Company's policy is to present bank balances under cash and cash equivalents, including bank overdrafts when balances fluctuate frequently from being positive to overdrawn and term deposits with a maturity period of three months or less from the date of acquisition. Term deposits that the Company cannot use for current transactions because they are pledged as security are excluded from cash and cash equivalents.


Property and Equipment


Property and equipment is stated at cost or contributed value. The value of the equipment contributed was assessed by an independent third-party at liquidation value. Major additions and improvements are capitalized. Depreciation of furniture, vehicles and equipment is calculated using the diminishing balance method at a rate of 20% per year, and leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease term (which is 5 years). The cost and related accumulated depreciation of equipment retired or sold are removed from the accounts and any differences between the undepreciated amount and the proceeds from the sale are recorded as a gain or loss on sale of equipment.


Foreign Currency Translation

 

The functional currency of the Company is the Canadian Dollar (“CAD”). For financial statement purposes, the reporting currency is the United States Dollar (“USD”).


For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements are translated into the Company’s reporting currency, USD. Asset, liability and equity accounts are translated using the closing exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date and income and expense accounts are translated using the average exchange rate prevailing during the reporting period.



F-15



Emerald Plants Health Source (E.P.H.S) Inc.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2017 and 2016

 


Adjustments resulting from the translation, if any, are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in stockholder’s equity (deficit).


The conversion from CAD to USD was performed using the historical exchange rate of $1.00 CAD equal to $0.772 USD as of 6/30/2016, $0.771 USD as of 6/30/2017, $0.771 and $0.795 USD as of 12/31/2017.


Impairment of Long-Lived Assets


Our company reviews its property and equipment and any identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, in accordance with ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment” (“ASC 360”). The test for impairment is required to be performed by management at least annually. An asset or asset group is considered impaired if its carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flow the asset or asset group is expected to generate. If an asset or asset group is considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds its fair value. If estimated fair value is less than the book value, the asset is written down to the estimated fair value and an impairment loss is recognized.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments


Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents and amounts due to shareholders. 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.


The Company's financial instruments, as defined by ASC subtopic 825-10, ”Financial Instrument” (“ASC 825-10), include cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, convertible note payable and amounts due to shareholders. All instruments are accounted for on a historical cost basis, which, due to the short maturity of these financial instruments, approximates fair value at June 30, 2017.


FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:


Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;


Level 2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and


Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions


Income Taxes


The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” which requires that the Company recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect in the years the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred income tax benefit (expense) results from the change in net deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that some or all deferred tax assets will not be realized.


The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 740-10-05 ”Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” The ASC clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements. The ASC prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The ASC provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2017 and 2016

 


Sales Tax Receivable


The company is charged approximately 15% sales taxes on all taxable purchases. The rates are a blend of Federal (Canada) and Provincial (Quebec). The company is reimbursed for all sales taxes paid to suppliers. The company does not charge sales taxes on supplies as it has no revenues.


Net Loss Per Share, Basic and Diluted


The basic loss per share for the year was $(1,640) and 2016 was $(2,123). Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing our net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing our net income available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. There are no such common share equivalents outstanding as of June 30, 2017.


Related Party Transactions


The Company follows the guidance in ASC 850. The Company discloses related transactions and certain common control relationships. Transactions between related parties are related party transactions even though they may not be given accounting recognition.

The Company evaluates subsequent events from the date of the balance sheet through the date when the financial statements are issued.

Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management anticipates that the Company will be dependent, for the near future, on additional investment capital to fund operating expenses The Company intends to position itself so that it will be able to raise additional funds through the capital markets. In light of management’s efforts, there are no assurances that the Company will be successful in this or any of its endeavors or become financially viable and continue as a going concern.

Emerald Plants Health Source (E.P.H.S.) Inc.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Six Months Ended December 31, 2017

(unaudited)


Note 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS


Emerald is a recently formed Canadian based company. Emerald’s operations are based in Montreal, Quebec Canada. Emerald has applied and submitted an application to Health Canada to secure a commercial cultivation license identified as a license for Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulation: “ACMPR”, It has generated no revenues to date.


After securing the license, Emerald will be required to apply for a sales license. In applying for a sales license for cannabis, Emerald will be required to submit its first cannabis crop for inspection. The inspection will examine the cannabis for contaminants and environmental control. If the license is granted, Emerald be able to sell cannabis to licensed distributors throughout Canada.


Note 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Basis of presentation


The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s year-end is June 30.


Use of Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Cash and Cash Equivalents


The Company's policy is to present bank balances under cash and cash equivalents, including bank overdrafts when balances fluctuate frequently from being positive to overdrawn and term deposits with a maturity period of three months or less from the date of acquisition. Term deposits that the Company cannot use for current transactions because they are pledged as security are excluded from cash and cash equivalents.


Property and Equipment


Property and equipment is stated at cost or contributed value. The value of the equipment contributed was assessed by an independent third-party at liquidation value. Major additions and improvements are capitalized. Depreciation of furniture, vehicles and equipment is calculated using the diminishing balance method at a rate of 20% per year, and leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the lease term (which is 5 years). The cost and related accumulated depreciation of equipment retired or sold are removed from the accounts and any differences between the undepreciated amount and the proceeds from the sale are recorded as a gain or loss on sale of equipment.


Foreign Currency Translation

 

The functional currency of the Company is the Canadian Dollar (“CAD”). For financial statement purposes, the reporting currency is the United States Dollar (“USD”).


For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements are translated into the Company’s reporting currency, USD. Asset, liability and equity accounts are translated using the closing exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date and income and expense accounts are translated using the average exchange rate prevailing during the reporting period.

Emerald Plants Health Source (E.P.H.S.) Inc.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Six Months Ended December 31, 2017

(unaudited)

 


Adjustments resulting from the translation, if any, are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in stockholder’s equity (deficit).


The conversion from CAD to USD was performed using the historical exchange rate of $1.00 CAD equal to $0.771 USD as of 12/31/2016 and $0.795 USD as of 12/31/2017.


Impairment of Long-Lived Assets


Our company reviews its property and equipment and any identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, in accordance with ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment” (“ASC 360”). The test for impairment is required to be performed by management at least annually. An asset or asset group is considered impaired if its carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flow the asset or asset group is expected to generate. If an asset or asset group is considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds its fair value. If estimated fair value is less than the book value, the asset is written down to the estimated fair value and an impairment loss is recognized.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments


Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents and amounts due to shareholders. 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.


The Company's financial instruments, as defined by ASC subtopic 825-10, “Financial Instrument” (“ASC 825-10), include cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable, convertible note payable and amounts due to shareholders. All instruments are accounted for on a historical cost basis, which, due to the short maturity of these financial instruments, approximates fair value at December 31, 2017


FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 2: Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and


Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions


Income Taxes


The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, "Income Taxes," which requires that the Company recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect in the years the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred income tax benefit (expense) results from the change in net deferred tax assets or deferred tax liabilities. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than not that some or all deferred tax assets will not be realized.


The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 740-10-05 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” The ASC clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise's financial statements. The ASC prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The ASC provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

Net Loss Per Share, Basic and Diluted


The basic loss per share for the six months ended December 31, 2017 was $(526).  Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing our net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period.

The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. There are no such common share equivalents outstanding as of December 31, 2017.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
