GOING CONCERN
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented on a going
concern basis. The Company's financial condition raises substantial doubt about
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has limited
cash, its current liabilities exceed its current assets as of January 31, 2022
and has incurred reoccurring losses from operations during the nine months ended
January 31, 2022. The Company is relying on capital from investors to meet the
majority of its operating expenses.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
There are no off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements, obligations
(including contingent obligations), or other relationships with unconsolidated
entities or other persons that have, or may have, a material effect on financial
condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of
operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources of the Company.
