Born, Inc. (formerly Quture International, Inc.) filed its 10-Q for the period ending October 31, 2020, revealing a company in transition with significant operational and financial restructuring.
The company has been largely dormant since March 2013 and is now positioning itself for new business operations following a name change and a significant 1-for-1,000 reverse stock split. A controlling stake was acquired by FiveT Capital Holding AG in September 2020, accompanied by leadership changes and the forgiveness of significant related party debt. Financially, the company reported zero revenue and a net loss of $2,036a for the three months ended October 31, 2020.
However, for the six months ended October 31, 2020, it reported a net income of $2,436,673,b largely driven by a gain from the extinguishment of debt. The balance sheet as of October 31, 2020, shows zero assets and zero liabilities, with total stockholders' deficit also at zero, a significant shift from April 30, 2020, which had substantial current liabilities. The company continues to face substantial doubt regarding its ability to continue as a going concern and is actively exploring financing options.
