|
The following plan of operation provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read along with our financial statements and notes thereto. This section includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events.

Overview
Health Advance Inc. (the “Company”) operates within the U.S. and Asia-Pacific as a developer and researcher for biotechnology, primarily focused on medical foods to treat pain and other severe illnesses usually treated with pharmaceutical drugs derived from opioids, in addition to developing dietary supplements to serve as alternatives for medicine. Our strategy is to attract opportunities in the health care industry through the development of patented product formulations for medical foods
Cebidofen
and
Polyoxyfen
, and
Gynspeq
, a food additive made from botanical extract blends that include kava and mitrigyna speciosa. Furthermore, the Company will explore ways to use the product formulations through research studies and clinical trials with medical schools, research organizations, hospitals, and government agencies. We believe that we can operate more cost efficiently over the next three years by outsourcing duties of operations within the Company to independent contractors. Our goal is to position the Company for a merger or acquisition with a larger company in the health care industry within the next five years.
From inception to September 30, 2017 the Company incurred a net loss of $59,288. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern depends upon its ability to raise adequate financing and develop profitable operations. If we cannot generate sufficient revenues from our services, we may have to delay the implementation of our business plan. Management is actively targeting sources of additional financing to provide continuation of the Company’s operations. In order for the Company to meet its liabilities as they come due and to continue its operations, the Company is solely dependent upon its ability to generate such financing.
The Company is actively seeking financing for its current business operation. The Company is optimistic that the financing will be secured and the going concern risk will be removed. We are in discussions with various parties and believe a successful financing is likely. Any capital raised will be through either a private placement or a convertible debenture and will result in the issuance of shares of common stock from the Company’s authorized capital. In addition, the Company is also seeking acquisitions within the health space as a means to grow the Company.
On February 14, 2014, the Company affected a 10-for-1 forward split of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares. The Company’s issued and outstanding common shares were therefore increased from 2,452,000 to 24,520,000. All per share amounts have been restated to reflect this stock split.

This closing condition has not been met and it was resolved by majority vote at the Board of Directors and Shareholder Minutes of Meeting on June 6, 2017 to terminate the Share Exchange Agreement. The Company and Hantian Labs have since re-negotiated the Share Exchange Agreement and made an addendum to the original agreement executed on January 16, 2017, pursuant to Exhibit 99.4, Section 9, allowing Hantian Labs additional time to complete its audit report for Transition Period between August 1, 2016 through June 30, 2017 and Fiscal Year Ending March 31, 2018.

The above represents managements’ best estimate of our cash requirements based on our business plans and current market conditions. The above is based on our ability to raise sufficient financing and generate adequate revenues to meet our cash flow requirements. The actual allocation between expenses may vary depending on the actual funds raised and the industry and market conditions over the next 12 months following our March 31, 2018 year-end.
If we are able to complete a financing through a private offering for a minimum of $3,961,680 within the 12 month period following our March 31, 2018 year-end, we expect to broaden our market research, clinical, and regulatory studies and business development with the healthcare marketplace and resellers of nutritional products, in addition to increasing the investment into agricultural material needed to manufacturer goods more cost effectively, which would allow the Company to remain competitive among its relevant industries.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2017, the Company had a cash balance and a working capital deficiency of $283,118.
The Company is currently seeking funding for our continued operations. The Company intends to raise a minimum of $3,961,680 and a maximum of $10,000,000 in order to continue the awareness and branding campaign for
K.L.E.A.N.
(staycleanmed.org). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to raise the capital required to complete its goal and objectives and the Company is currently seeking capital to further its business plan. We will likely raise funds through either debt or issuing shares of our common stock in order to achieve our business goals. The issuance of additional shares or securities convertible into any such shares by us, any shares issued would dilute the percentage ownership of our current shareholders. There are no agreements with any parties at this point in time for additional funding; however, we are in discussions with potential accredited investors, private financiers, government funding sources in the United States, Canada, Australia, Europe, and United Arab Emirates.
The Company cannot assure investors that adequate revenues will be generated and there are no formal commitments with the Company, its shareholders, or Board of Directors to finance the Company in the state of an emergency or financial crisis. However, the success of the Company’s operations is dependent on attaining adequate revenue. In the absence of our projected revenues, the Company may be unable to proceed with our plan of operations or we may require financing to achieve our profit, revenue, and growth goals.
