CANNABIS SCIENCE, INC.
(formerly Gulf Onshore, Inc.)
Notes to Financial Statements
March 31, 2010
(Expressed in US Dollars)
Note 1 - Organization and Business Operations
Cannabis Science, Inc. (We or the Company), was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado, on February 29, 1996, as Patriot Holdings, Inc. On August 26, 1999, the Company changed its name to National Healthcare Technology, Inc., and commenced a business plan to develop Magkelate, a patented intravenous drug developed to re-establish normal electrolyte balance in ischemic tissue and certain other patents for medical instruments and medical instrument technology. On January 14, 2000, the Company filed its Form 10SB12G. In 2002, the Company ceased its medical technology business following the death of Magkelates inventor. The Company conducted no substantial business until 2005.
In July 2005, the Company acquired Es3, Inc., a Nevada Corporation ("Es3"), pursuant to the terms of an Exchange Agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") by and among the Company, Crown Partners, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Crown Partners"), Es3, and certain stockholders of Es3 (the "Es3 Stockholders"). Under the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Es3 in exchange for the issuance of 191,828 shares of the Company's common stock (adjusted for splits) to the Es3 Stockholders, Crown Partners and certain consultants. The transactions effected by the Exchange Agreement were accounted for as a reverse merger, and recapitalization. In addition, the Company changed its accounting year-end from September 30 to December 31, which was Es3's accounting year-end. The Company then commenced business manufacturing and marketing products under the name Special Stone Surfaces. The Company sold its shares in Es3 in October 2005, and thereafter conducted no substantial business until 2006.
On April 3, 2006, the Company acquired a group of oil and gas leases in Oklahoma in exchange for issuance of common stock and commenced the business of oil and gas exploration and production, mineral lease purchasing and all activities associated with acquiring, operating and maintaining the assets of such operations. On June 6, 2007, the Company changed its name from National Healthcare Technology, Inc., to Brighton Oil & Gas, Inc., and converted to a Nevada corporation. The Company acquired additional oil and gas leases during 2007, all for issuance of common stock; in October 2007, the Company acquired leases from K & D Equity Investments, Inc., a Texas corporation in a transaction that effected a change of control, with K & D acquiring a majority stake in the Company. The Company also entered into a Line of Credit Agreement with South Beach Live, Inc., a Florida corporation, to provide it with working capital of up to $100,000 on a revolving credit line. The Agreement permitted South Beach the right to repayment on demand, or to convert amounts owed for shares.
On March 25, 2008 the Company changed its name to Gulf Onshore, Inc. On June 6, 2008, the Company entered into an Asset Acquisition Agreement with K & D to acquire additional leases (the Leases) in exchange for common stock and a Stock Purchase Agreement (SPA) with South Beach Live, Inc., a Florida corporation, to purchase 100% of the common shares of Curado Energy Resources, Inc., a Texas corporation (Curado). Curado is registered with the Texas Railroad Commission as an oil and gas well operator, and is the operator for the Leases. The Company acquired the Leases into Curado, in exchange for shares issued to K & D. The Company issued South Beach a promissory note for $250,000, payable in 1 year at 10% interest, which was guaranteed by Curado. The Company consolidated the operations of Curado commencing in 3Q 2008.

|
In August 2008, the Company granted South Beach a security interest in its Curado shares and the Curado assets, in exchange for concessions from South Beach regarding further cash advances and future stock conversions. This transaction was contemplated and further consummated by the Company due to declining oil prices throughout 3Q 2008 and increased operating costs, which made continued oil and gas operations on the Leases unprofitable. The Company was also continually drawing down on its Line of Credit Agreement with South Beach that created unsustainable working capital pressure.
On October 6, 2008, in the face of further oil price declines and general economic conditions, the Company and South Beach entered into an Accord and Satisfaction Agreement under which the Company surrendered its interest in the Putnam M oil and gas lease in Throckmorton Co., Texas in exchange for a complete release on the Promissory Note and Line of Credit. In addition, the Company waived any claim on the shares of Curado common stock that secured the Promissory Note or the assets of Curado. South Beach then made claim against Curado under the guarantee agreement and then exercised its rights under the collateral agreement. As a result, the Companys 4Q 2008, financial statements reflected the disposition of Curado and its assets, and furthermore that the Company has, once again, become a Development Stage Company seeking a new business partner or acquisition. A Form 8-K reflecting this transaction was timely filed.
On March 30, 2009, the Company entered into an agreement with Cannex Therapeutics, LLC, (Cannex) a California limited liability company, and its principal, medical cannabis pioneer and entrepreneur Steven W. Kubby, to acquire all of their interest in certain assets used to conduct a cannabis research and development business. The asset purchase agreement includes all of Cannex and Kubbys intellectual property rights, formulas, patents, trademarks, client base, hardware and software, including the website www.phytiva.com. The Company and its largest shareholder, K & D Equities, Inc., exchanged a total of 10,600,000 shares of common stock for the assets of Cannex; the Company issued 2,100,000 shares to Cannex, and K & D transferred 8,500,000 shares to Cannex and others. A Form 8-K reflecting this transaction was timely filed.
As part of the Agreement, on April 1, 2009, the Company appointed Mr. Kubby as President and CEO, Richard Cowan as Director and CFO, and Robert Melamede Ph. D., as Director and Chief Science Officer. Each of them was also appointed as a director. All of the Companys current directors then resigned. On April 7, 2009, the Company changed its name to Cannabis Science, Inc., and obtained a new CUSIP number. Its shares now trade under the symbol CBIS.OB. A Form 8-K was timely filed, with a copy of the Asset Acquisition Agreement and Board Resolution ratifying the Agreement provided as exhibits thereto.
On April 7, 2009, the Company changed its name to Cannabis Science, Inc., reflecting its new business mission: Cannabis Science, Inc. is at the forefront of medical marijuana research and development. The Company works with world authorities on phytocannabinoid science targeting critical illnesses, and adheres to scientific methodologies to develop, produce, and commercialize phytocannabinoid-based pharmaceutical products. In sum, we are dedicated to the creation of cannabis-based medicines, both with and without psychoactive properties, to treat disease and the symptoms of disease, as well as for general health maintenance. The Company obtained a new CUSIP number as well. Cannabis Science Inc. has also launched its new website www.cannabisscience.com reflecting its new name.

On May 7, 2009 the Company common shares commenced trading under the new stock symbol OTCBB: CBIS.
In response to a comment letter received from the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company has treated the disposition of Curado in connection with the Accord and Satisfaction Agreement between the Company and South Beach as a disposition of a subsidiary and has presented Curados operations in the financial statements as discontinued operations.
Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a) Basis of Presentation
These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed in US dollars. The Companys fiscal year end is December 31.
b) Interim Financial Statement
These interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Companys financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods shown. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full year or for any future period.
c)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with US generally accepted accounting principles 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 amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to stock-based compensation and deferred income tax valuations. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Companys estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
d)
Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Under ASC 260, "Earnings Per Share" ("EPS"), the Company provides for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic EPS includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income or loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings or losses of the entity. For the periods January 1, 2009 to March 31, 2010 and from inception through March 31, 2010, basic and diluted loss per share are the same since the calculation of diluted per share amounts would result in an anti-dilutive calculation.
e)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.
f)
Fair Value Measurements
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements. In general, fair values of financial instruments are based upon quoted market prices, where available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that primarily use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that financial instruments are recorded at fair value. These adjustments may include amounts to reflect counterparty credit quality and the customers creditworthiness, among other things, as well as unobservable parameters. Any such valuation adjustments are applied consistently over time. Management has determined that it will not, at this time, adopt fair value accounting for nonfinancial assets or liabilities currently recorded in the financial statements.
g)
Income Taxes
Under ASC 740, Income Tax, the Company in required to account for its income taxes through the establishment of a deferred tax asset or liability for the recognition of future deductible or taxable amounts and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax expense or benefit is recognized as a result of timing differences between the recognition of assets and liabilities for book and tax purposes during the year.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss, and tax credit carry forwards. A valuation allowance is established to reduce that deferred tax asset if it is "more likely than not" that the related tax benefits will not be realized.
h) Development Stage Enterprise
The Company is currently in the development stage as defined under the provisions of Accounting Codification Standard ("ASC") 915-10. In October 2008, the Company divested itself of its operating company, Curado Energy Resources, Inc. Beginning with the fiscal fourth quarter of 2008 the Company again became a development stage company. The Company is working on developing its medical cannabis business, which will be comprised of cannabinoid medicines approved through the FDA along with non-psychotropic medicines for the naturopathy market.

i) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Beginning on July 1, 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) implemented a new accounting referencing system known as the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC). This new reporting and disclosure method is applicable for annual and interim periods ending after September 15, 2009. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared with the use of the ASC reference system. The ASC does not alter current accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), but rather integrates existing accounting standards with other authoritative guidance. The ASC provides a single source of authoritative GAAP for nongovernmental entities and supersedes all other previously issued non-public accounting and reporting guidance. The adoption of the ASC did not have any effect on the Companys financial statements.
During the year ended December 31, and through May 20, 2010, there were several new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB the most recent of which was Accounting Standards Update 2010-17, Topic 605, Revenue RecognitionMilestone Method: A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issue Task Force. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Center.
Management has reviewed these new standards and believes that they have no material impact on the financial statements of the Company.
