Risk Factors Dashboard

Once a year, publicly traded companies issue a comprehensive report of their business, called a 10-K. A component mandated in the 10-K is the ‘Risk Factors’ section, where companies disclose any major potential risks that they may face. This dashboard highlights all major changes and additions in new 10K reports, allowing investors to quickly identify new potential risks and opportunities.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision, you should give careful consideration to the following risk factors, in addition to the other information included in this annual report, including our financial statements and related notes, before deciding whether to invest in shares of our common stock. The occurrence of any of the adverse developments described in the following risk factors could materially and adversely harm our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment .

We have a limited operational history.

We have a limited history upon which an evaluation of our prospects and future performance can be made. Our operations are subject to all business risks associated with new enterprises. Our proposed operations are subject to all business risks associated with new enterprises. The likelihood of our success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications, and delays frequently encountered in connection with the expansion of a business operation in an emerging industry, and the continued development of advertising, promotions, and a corresponding customer base. There is a possibility that we could sustain losses in the future, and there are no assurances that we will ever operate profitably.

Our auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

As of July 31, 2023 and July 31, 2022, we had minimal cash or cash equivalents and an accumulated deficit of $120,978,899 and $120,900,882, respectively. Our audited financial statements for the years ended July 31, 2023 and 2022 were prepared using the assumption that we will continue our operations as a going concern. Our independent accountants in their audit report have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our operations are dependent on our ability to raise sufficient capital or complete a business combination as a result of which we become profitable. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

There is not enough cash on hand to fund our administrative expenses and operating expenses for the next twelve months. Therefore, we may be unable to continue operations in the future as a going concern. If we cannot continue as a viable entity, our stockholders may lose some or all of their investment in our common stock.

Our operational strategy is changing to be refocused on the Life Sciences space.

We expect our business growth to be generated through the development of our EZ Saliva business . No assurances can be made that we will be successful in developing our EZ Saliva business.

If we do not generate sufficient cash flow from operations in the future, we may not be able to fund our product development efforts and acquisitions or fulfill our future obligations.

Our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to fund our operations and business development efforts, including the potential payment of cash consideration in acquisitions and the payment of our other obligations, depends on a range of economic, competitive and business factors, many of which are outside of our control. We cannot assure you that our business will ever generate sufficient cash flow from operations, or that we will be able to raise equity or debt financings when needed or desirable. An inability to fund our operations would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. For further information, please refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Liquidity and Capital Resources” below.

Our Acquisition presents many risks, and we may not realize the financial and strategic goals we anticipate at the time of the Acquisition.

Our growth is dependent upon our ability to develop and successfully commercialize our acquired EZ Saliva business on a timely basis. Acquisitions, including those of high-technology companies, are inherently risky. We cannot provide any assurance our Acquisition will be successful in helping us reach our financial and strategic goals. We cannot provide any assurance that any future acquisitions, if completed, will be successful in helping us reach our financial and strategic goals. The risks we commonly encounter in undertaking, managing and integrating acquisitions are:

an uncertain revenue and earnings stream from the acquired company;

difficulties and delays integrating the personnel, operations, technologies, products and systems of the acquired companies;

the need to implement controls, procedures and policies appropriate for a public company at companies that prior to acquisition had lacked such controls, procedures and policies;

difficulties managing or integrating an acquired company’s technologies or lines of business;

potential difficulties in completing projects associated with purchased in-process research and development;
