BASIS OF PRESENTATION, ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
(“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting and reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows
of the Company. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance
with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. As such, these unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and accompanying notes included in the
Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, which was filed with the SEC on August 10,
2020. The results from operations for the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts and the disclosure of contingent amounts in the Company’s financial statements and the accompanying
notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Organization
and Nature of Operations
Sundance
Strategies, Inc. (formerly known as Java Express, Inc.) was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 14, 2001,
and engaged in the retail selling of beverage products to the general public until these endeavors ceased in 2006; it had no material
business operations from 2006, until its acquisition of ANEW LIFE, INC. (“ANEW LIFE”), a subsidiary of Sundance Strategies,
Inc. (“Sundance Strategies”, “the Company”, “we” or “our”). The Company is engaged
in the business of purchasing or acquiring life insurance policies and residual interests in or financial products tied to life
insurance policies, including notes, drafts, acceptances, open accounts receivable and other obligations representing part or
all of the sales price of insurance, life settlements and related insurance contracts being traded in the secondary marketplace,
often referred to as the “life settlements market.” Since the Company’s inception its operations have been primarily
financed through sales of equity, debt financing from related parties and the issuance of notes payable and convertible debentures.
Currently, the Company is focused on the purchase of net insurance benefit contracts (“NIBs”) based on life settlements
or life insurance policies.
Significant
Accounting Policies
There
have been no changes to the significant accounting policies of the Company from the information provided in Note 2 of the Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s most recent Form 10-K, except as discussed below.
Basic
and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic
net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during
the periods presented using the treasury stock method. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by including common shares
that may be issued subject to existing rights with dilutive potential, when applicable. Potential dilutive common stock equivalents
are primarily comprised of potential dilutive shares resulting from convertible debt agreements and common stock warrants. Potentially
dilutive shares resulting from convertible debt agreements are evaluated using the if-converted method. Potentially dilutive securities
are not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, because to
do so would be anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities outstanding as of June 30, 2020 are comprised of warrants convertible into 1,952,000 shares of common stock. No potentially dilutive securities were outstanding as of June 30,
2019.

New
Accounting Pronouncements
Adopted
During the Three months Ended June 30, 2020
In
June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. ASU 2016-13 requires entities to report “expected”
credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit rather than the current “incurred loss”
model. These expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date are to be based on historical experience,
current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This ASU will also require enhanced disclosures relating to significant
estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses, as well as the credit quality. The amendments became effective for the
Company’s fiscal year beginning April 1, 2020. The adoption of this standard did not have an impact on the consolidated
financial statements because the Company does not hold financial instruments subject to credit losses.
Not
Yet Adopted
The
Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting standards, in order to determine their effects, if any,
on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Based on that review, the Company believes that none of these
pronouncements will have a significant effect on its financial statements.
(2)
LIQUIDITY REQUIREMENTS
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under which the Company is expected to be able to
realize its assets and satisfy its liabilities in the normal course of business. Due to the fact that the Company is in the process
of seeking NIB investments to acquire as mentioned above, the Company has no current source of operating revenues. In order to
purchase NIBs, the Company will need to raise additional capital or secure alternative sources of debt financing.
Since
the Company’s inception on January 31, 2013, its operations have been primarily financed through sales of equity, debt financing
from related parties and the issuance of notes payable and convertible debentures. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had $11,862
of cash assets, compared to $28,784 as of March 31, 2020. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had access to draw an additional $4,980,492
on the notes payable, related party (see Note 5) and $3,000,000 on the Convertible Debenture Agreement (See Note 6). For the three
months ended June 30, 2020, the Company’s average monthly operating expenses were approximately $45,000, which includes
salaries of our employees, consulting agreements and contract labor, general and administrative expenses and legal and accounting
expenses. In addition to the monthly operating expenses, the Company continues to pursue other debt and equity financing opportunities,
and as a result, a financing expense of $74,500 was incurred during the three months ended June 30, 2020. As management continues
to explore additional financing alternatives, the Company is expected to spend an additional $350,000 over the next 12 months
related to these efforts. Outstanding Accounts Payable as of June 30, 2020 totaled $499,817, and other accrued liabilities totaled
$489,559. Management has concluded that its existing capital resources and availability under its existing convertible debentures
and debt agreements with related parties will be sufficient to fund its operating working capital requirements for at least the
next 12 months from the issuance of these financial statements. Related parties have given assurance that their continued support,
by way of either extensions of due dates, or increases in lines-of-credit, can be relied on. As mentioned above, the Company also
continues to evaluate other debt and equity financing opportunities.
The
recent outbreak of COVID-19 originated in Wuhan, China, in December 2019 and has since spread to multiple countries, including
the United States and several European countries. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak a pandemic.
The COVID-19 pandemic is affecting the United States and global economies and may affect the Company’s operations and those
of third parties on which the Company relies. While the potential economic impact brought by, and the duration of, the COVID-19
pandemic is difficult to assess or predict, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global financial markets may reduce the
Company’s ability to access capital, which could negatively impact the Company’s short-term and long-term liquidity.
The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is highly uncertain and subject to change. The Company does not yet know the full
extent of potential delays or impacts on its business, financing or other activities or on healthcare systems or the global economy
as a whole. However, these effects could have a material impact on the Company’s liquidity, capital resources, operations
and business and those of the third parties on which we rely.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
As
defined by ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), fair value is the price
that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants
at the measurement date. ASC 820 also requires the consideration of differing levels of inputs in the determination of fair values.
Those
levels of input are summarized as follows:
●
|
Level
1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
|
|
|
●
|
Level
2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 quoted prices, such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted
prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which
all significant assumptions are observable in the market.
|
|
|
●
|
Level
3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial
instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques as well
as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
|
The
level in the fair value hierarchy within which a fair value measurement in its entirety falls is based on the lowest level input
that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.
The
Company did not have any transfers of assets and liabilities between Levels 1, 2 and 3 of the fair value measurement hierarchy
during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.
Other
Financial Instruments
The
Company’s recorded values of cash and cash equivalents, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable and accrued
liabilities approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature. The recorded values of the notes payable and convertible
debenture approximate the fair values as the interest rate approximates market interest rates.

STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Common
Stock
Effective
December 6, 2018, three existing stockholders have contributed to the Company a portion of their common shares held at a repurchase
price to the Company of $0.05 per share. The Company has cancelled the acquired shares, which decreased the outstanding common
shares on the books of the Company. The total number of common shares canceled/retired was 8,000,000. The total liability related
to the repurchase of these shares is $400,000, with repayment contingent on a major financing event.
Warrants
to Purchase Common Stock
Effective
April 3, 2020, the related party, note payable and line of credit agreement with the Chairman of the Board of Directors and a
stockholder (see Note 5) was amended to include a formal provision that provides the related party lender with common stock warrants
upon the lenders extension of a maturity due date or upon the loaning of additional monies. The number of warrants issued will
be based on the following formula: 10,000 warrants per month the due date is extended plus 1 warrant for every $2 of the principal
balance outstanding (not including interest) at the time of the extension (rounded to the nearest whole warrant). Effective April
3, 2020, the number of warrants to be issued upon the loaning of additional monies is 2 warrants for each dollar loaned.

In
addition, Mr. Dickman, the holder of the related party, unsecured promissory notes (see Note 5) has informed the Company that,
at such time the Company requests either an extension or additional monies from the lender, in addition to interest, the lender
will require 10,000 warrants per month the due date is extended plus 1 warrant for every $2 of the principal balance outstanding
(not including interest) at the time of the extension (rounded to the nearest whole warrant). Upon the loaning of additional monies,
the lender will also require 2 warrants for each dollar loaned.
As
of June 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020, the Company held outstanding warrants to related parties totaling 1,952,000 and 1,702,000,
respectively. All warrants have an exercise price of $0.05 per share, a five-year life as of the date of grant and expire between
November 2024 and June 2025. The value of the warrants on the date of grant, as calculated by the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation
model, was not significant. The inputs used in this calculation included a risk-free rate of 0.32% to 0.39%, volatility
of 85% to 123% and a dividend rate of 0%. The average remaining outstanding life of the warrants as of June 30, 2020, was
4.71 years. The common stock issued upon exercise of the warrants are not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission
and do not have registration rights.

CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE AGREEMENT
The Company has entered into an 8% convertible debenture agreement
with Satco International, Ltd., that allows for borrowings of up to $3,000,000. The holder originally had the option to convert
the outstanding principal and accrued interest to unregistered, restricted common stock of the Company on June 2, 2016. Per the
agreement, the number of shares issuable at conversion shall be determined by the quotient obtained by dividing the outstanding
principal and accrued and unpaid interest by 90% of the 90 day average closing price of the Company’s common stock from the
date the notice of conversion is received; and the price at which the Debenture may be converted will be no lower than $1.00 per
share. The original maturity date was June 2, 2016, but was later extended, through a series of extensions, to December 1, 2020.
As of June 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020, the Company owed $0 under the agreement, excluding accrued interest. The associated interest
of $124,225 is recorded on the balance sheet as an Accrued Expense obligation at June 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020.

OTHER DEBT
On
April 20, 2020, the Company received funding under a Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan (the “PPP Loan”)
from CCBank (the “Lender”). The principal amount of the PPP Loan is $26,458. The PPP was established under the Coronavirus
Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration
(the “SBA”). The PPP Loan has a two-year term, maturing on April 20, 2022. The interest rate on the PPP Loan is 1.0%
per annum. Principal and interest are payable in monthly installments, beginning on November 20, 2020, until maturity with respect
to any portion of the PPP Loan which is not forgiven as described below. The Company did not provide any collateral or guarantees
for the PPP Loan, nor did the Company pay any facility charge to obtain the PPP Loan. The PPP Loan provides for customary events
of default, including, among others, those relating to failure to make payment, bankruptcy, breaches of representations and material
adverse effects. The PPP Loan may be partially or fully forgiven if the Company complies with the provisions of the CARES Act,
including the use of PPP Loan proceeds for payroll costs, rent, utilities and other expenses, provided that such amounts are incurred
during a 24-week period that commenced on April 20, 2020, and at least 60% of any forgiven amount has been used for covered payroll
costs as defined by the CARES Act. Any forgiveness of the PPP Loan will be subject to approval by the SBA and the Lender and will
require the Company to apply for such treatment in the future.
