PLAN OF OPERATIONS

Kyto Technology and Life Science, Inc. (the "Company") was formed as a Florida corporation on March 5, 1999 under the name of B Twelve, Inc. In August, 2002, the Company changed its name from B Twelve, Inc. to Kyto BioPharma Inc. and in May 2018, the name was changed again to Kyto Technology and Life Science, Inc. In July 2019, the Company was re-incorporated as a Delaware company. The Company operates virtually, from public locations or the homes of its officers, and does not currently lease any office space.

The Company was originally formed to acquire and develop proprietary drugs for the treatment of cancer, arthritis, and other autoimmune diseases and had been evaluating a number of strategies. In April 2018, the Board adopted a new business plan focused on the development of early-stage technology and life science businesses through early stage investment funding. The Company has recruited a number of experienced investment consultants from a network that includes angel investors, corporate managers, sophisticated early stage investors and successful entrepreneurs with experience across a number of technology and life science products and markets, and relies on input from these advisors in conducting due diligence and making investment decisions. In order to offset the risk in early-stage investing, the Company works with angel investment groups and other sophisticated investors and participates only after these groups have completed due diligence and committed to invest, in effect becoming lead investors. The Company then completes its own due diligence and invests under identical terms as the lead investors. The Company will do follow-on investments in existing portfolio companies, assuming adequate progress, when portfolio companies initiate new financing rounds. The Company currently does not typically invest more than $250,000 in any single investment. Generally, the Company's investments represent less than 5% ownership interests, and the Company therefore has no effective control or influence over the management or commercial decisions of the companies in which it invests. The Company plans to generate revenue from realized gains from the sale of the businesses in which it has invested, or some or all of its shareholdings in those cases where portfolio companies go public. Generally, it is expected that investments will be realized from an exit within a period of four to five years following initial investment. Such exits or liquidity events are outside the Company's control and depend on merger and acquisition ("M&A") transactions or an initial public offering ("IPO") which may result in cash or equity proceeds. Accordingly, it is difficult to forecast revenue, net income, and cash flow. Other than making its initial and, potentially, follow-on investments in its portfolio companies, the Company does not provide any financial support to any of its investees.

The Company has one regular employee - the CEO, Mr, Paul Russo. Prior to December 31, 2020, he was acting as a consultant to the Company and did not receive contractual compensation for his services in the form of cash. As of January 1, 2021, Mr. Russo was engaged as an employee of the Company at a salary of $400,000 per annum of which $100,000 and $300,000 was earned in the three months and nine months ended December 31, 2021, respectively, of which a balance of $80,000 was deferred at December 31, 2021. No consulting fees and no options were granted to him during these periods. During the three months and nine months ended December 31, 2020, Mr. Russo received no payroll or consulting fees, however in the three and nine months ended December 31, 2020, he received a bonus of $50,000 and was granted options to purchase 215,000 shares of Common stock.

The Company has created a portfolio of minority investments in early-stage start-up companies and derives its revenue opportunity from the sale of those investments. Such sales are outside the Company's control and depend on M&A transactions or IPOs which may result in cash or equity proceeds. Accordingly, it is difficult to forecast revenue, net income, and cash flow. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had approximately $600,000 of cash to cover its operating expenses, and new investment requirements, and is continuing to raise additional funding on a recurring monthly basis. If successful, it will have sufficient funding for further investments and ongoing operations. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to raise sufficient cash to cover its requirements on attractive terms, if at all, and whether it will be able to continue as a going concern. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Stay at home orders and general economic uncertainties arising out of the current Covid-19 epidemic have created additional delays and uncertainty. To date there has been no disruption to the Company's business operations, although some of its portfolio investment companies report delays in their programs.

At March 31, 2020, management determined that the Company was an investment company for purposes of ASC 946 disclosure, and committed to follow the specialized accounting and reporting guidance contained therein. Accordingly, a new company, Kyto Investments, Inc. ("KI") was incorporated in Delaware in December 2020 in preparation for a restructuring and an N-2 Registration Statement filed in March 2021 for review by the SEC. KI is an internally managed, closed-end investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company ("BDC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). Immediately upon effectiveness of this N-2 Registration Statement, the Company will merge with KI and the Company will be the surviving entity. As of the completion of the merger, the Company will constitute a "successor issuer" for the purposes of Rule 414 under the Securities Act and may continue the current offering by filing post-effective amendments to the Registration Statements. Prior to the merger, the Company had fewer than 100 non-affiliated investors and filed under the 1934 Act relying on exemption Rule 3( c )(1).

As a BDC, the Company will be required to comply with certain regulatory requirements. The Company also intends to elect to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). As a RIC, the Company is required to comply with additional regulatory requirements. The Company has prepared and submitted sequentially two N-2 Registration Statements to the SEC for review but has not yet received final approval of its registration as at the filing date of this report.

During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2021, the Company was subject to shelter in place regulations imposed by the State of California in mitigation of the spread of the Corona 19 virus. Since the Company does not have any dedicated office space and works virtually from the homes of its officers, there was no major disruption in working routines which continued by video and teleconference. Uncertainty arising from Covid 19 created a slow-down in the rate at which the Company was able to raise Class B funding, and thereby continue to make investments, however the Company did see a reduction in travel and investor relations expenses during the period. The Company has more than 60 discrete investments in a range of different industry and geographic segments, many of which are in the life science and medical space. While there is clearly a risk that our portfolio companies may be adversely affected in their ability to raise future funding or do business, there have been no management reports revealing major problems and some of our portfolio companies may actually benefit from new opportunities created. We believe that our policy of spreading our investments in relatively small amounts over a large number of portfolio companies helps mitigate some of the risk that might be suffered by any of our investments.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

The Company had net assets of $12,911,623 and $6,993,163 at December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2021, respectively. Cash was $608,223 and $1,437,868 at December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2021, respectively.

The Company's condensed interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires the use of estimates, assumptions and the exercise of subjective judgment as to future uncertainties. Actual results could differ from those estimates, assumptions, and judgments. Significant items subject to such estimates will include determining the fair value of investments, revenue recognition, income tax uncertainties, stock-based compensation, and other contingencies.

The Company has created a portfolio of minority investments in early-stage start-up companies and derives its revenue opportunity from the sale of those investments. Such sales are outside the Company's control and depend on M&A transactions or IPOs which may result in cash or equity proceeds. Accordingly, it is difficult to forecast revenue, net income, and cash flow. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had approximately $600,000 of cash to cover its operating expenses, and new investment requirements and is continuing to raise additional funding on a recurring monthly basis. If successful, it will have sufficient funding for further investments and ongoing operations. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to raise sufficient cash to cover its requirements on attractive terms, if at all, and whether it will be able to continue as a going concern. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying condensed interim financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue to operate as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Stay at home orders and general economic uncertainties arising out of the current Covid-19 epidemic have created additional delays and uncertainty. To date there has been no disruption to the Company's business operations, although some of its portfolio investment companies report delays in their programs.

Cash from operating activities

The Company used net cash of $4,520,139 in operating activities during the nine months ended December 31, 2021 compared to $2,876,156 used for the nine months ended December 31, 2020. The main reasons for the higher level in 2021 were an increase in investments in portfolio companies and increased professional fees and operating expenses.

Cash from investing activities

No cash was used in investing activities.

Cash from financing activities

The Company had a net cash inflow from financing activities of $3,690,494 in the nine months ended December 31, 2021 compared to $3,406,195 in the nine months ended December 31, 2020. This inflow included $3,567,001 proceeds from the sale of Class B preferred stock (including B-1 and B-3), and $122,875 proceeds from the sale of common stock, respectively, in the nine months ended December 31, 2021, compared to $1,873,125 from the sale of Class B preferred stock, and $1,566,229 proceeds from the sale of common stock, respectively, in the corresponding nine month prior period ended December 31, 2020.



31

The Company's plan of operations for the next twelve months is to continue to focus its efforts on finding new sources of capital by means of private placements, and to use this capital to fund additional investments as they become available, and to cover operating expenses. The Company is planning to uplift from OTC to the NASDAQ market, and raise additional funding from an initial public offering ("IPO)" for which as an initial step it has submitted an N-2 filing to the SEC for review.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

USE OF ESTIMATES

In preparing financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and revenues and expenses during the period presented. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Significant estimates at December 31, 2021 and March 31, 2021 include the valuation of investments, deferred tax assets, tax allowance, stock options and warrants.

INVESTMENT AND VALUATION OF INVESTMENT AT FAIR VALUE

The Company reviews the performance of its investments based on available information, including management reports, press releases, web site announcements and progress reports, third party equity updates, management interviews and, where accessible, financial reports, to determine their fair values. In the event that Management considers the fair value of an investment to be greater or less than the current book value, the difference will be reflected as unrealized gains or losses in investments in the statements of operations.

The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures", for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC 820 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to existing GAAP that require the use of fair value measurements which establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Fair value is an exchange price notion under which fair value is the price in an orderly transaction between market participants to sell an asset or transfer a liability in the market in which the reporting entity would transact for the asset or liability.

The Company has established procedures to estimate the fair value of its investments which the Company's board of directors has reviewed and approved. The Company uses observable market data to estimate the fair value of investments to the extent that market data is available. In the absence of quoted market prices in active markets, or quoted market prices for similar assets or in markets that are not active, the Company uses the valuation methodologies described below with unobservable data based on the best available information in the circumstances, which incorporates the Company's assumptions about the factors that a market participant would use to value the asset.

For investments for which quoted market prices are not available, which comprise most of our investment portfolio, fair value is estimated by using the income, market, or back-solve approach. The income approach is based on the assumption that value is created by the expectation of future benefits discounted to a current value and the fair value estimate is the amount an investor would be willing to pay to receive those future benefits. The market approach compares recent comparable transactions to the investment. The back solve method involves comparing available data over a period of time and inferring a new valuation based on changes from a known starting point, for example the cost of an investment. Adjustments are made for any dissimilarity between the comparable transactions and the investments. These valuation methodologies involve a significant degree of judgment on the part of our management and board.



32

In determining the appropriate fair value of an investment using these approaches, the most significant information and assumptions may include, as applicable: available current market data, including relevant and applicable comparable market transactions, applicable market yields and multiples, security covenants, call protection provisions, information rights, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the investment's ability to make payments, its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the company does business, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public, merger and acquisition comparables, the principal market and enterprise values, environmental factors, subsequent financings by the portfolio investment, among other factors.

The estimated fair values do not necessarily represent the amounts that may be ultimately realized due to the occurrence or nonoccurrence of future circumstances that cannot be reasonably determined. Because of the inherent uncertainty of the valuation of the investments, the estimate of fair values may differ significantly from the value that would have been used had a broader market for the investments existed.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

IMPACT OF INFLATION

The Company does not foresee any implications being created by the current rate of inflation.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATION

The Company has no contractual obligations outside the normal course of business with its vendors, advisors, and consultants.
