Forward-looking Statements

There are "forward-looking statements" contained in this quarterly report. All statements that express expectations, estimates, forecasts or projections are forward-looking statements. In addition, other written or oral statements which constitute forward-looking statements may be made by us or on our behalf. Words such as "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "believe," "seek," "estimate," "project," "forecast," "may," "should," and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in or suggested by such forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this quarterly report to conform forward-looking statements to actual results. Important factors on which such statements are based are assumptions concerning uncertainties, including but not limited to, uncertainties associated with the following:





    ·   Inadequate capital and barriers to raising the additional capital or to
        obtaining the financing needed to implement our business plans;




  · Our failure to earn revenues or profits;




  · Inadequate capital to continue business;




  · Volatility or decline of our stock price;




  · Potential fluctuation in quarterly results;




  · Rapid and significant changes in markets;




  · Litigation with or legal claims and allegations by outside parties; and




  · Insufficient revenues to cover operating costs.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto which are included in this quarterly report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ substantially from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements included in this discussion as a result of various factors.





Overview

Yuengling's Ice Cream Corporation, (f/k/a Aureus, Inc.) ("Yuengling's," "ARSN," "we," "us," or the "Company") was incorporated in Nevada on April 19, 2013. Our offices are located at One Glenlake Parkway #650, Atlanta, GA 30328. Our telephone number is (404) 885-6045, and our email address is aureus.now@gmail.com. Our website is www.aureusnow.com.

We are a food brand development company that builds and represents popular food concepts throughout the United States and international markets. Management is highly experienced at business integration and re-branding potential. With little territory available for the older brands, we intend to bring fresh, innovative brands with great potential. Our brands will be unique as we focus on niche markets that are still in need of development.

We operate two lines of business. Through our subsidiary, YIC Acquisitions Corp. ("YICA"), we acquired the assets of Yuengling's Ice Cream ("YIC" or "Yuengling's") in June 2019. Yuengling's sells high-quality ice cream without artificial colors, flavoring, or preservatives and no added hormones. Yuengling's is currently sold in select retailers and convenience stores in eastern Pennsylvania. In September 2020, we entered into the micro-market segment and launched our second business line, Aureus Micro-Markets ("AMM"). Closely tied to the vending machine industry, micro-markets look and feel like modern convenience stores while functioning with the ease and efficiency of vending food service and refreshment services. They provide an improved customer experience and greater product variety, with a proven track record of increasing sales at vending locations while keeping labor costs down and improving operating efficiencies. Micro-markets are a hybrid form of vending, food service, coffee service, and convenience stores that provide an improved customer experience, exponentially greater product variety, and increased sales within a single location while keeping labor costs down and improving operational efficiencies. The expanded product variety, open flow, and cashless payment options mean that consumers spend less time in line fumbling with cash/change, can purchase multiple items with one transaction, and buy more items per transaction than with cash transactions.

In January 2022, the company signed a non-binding Letter of Intent to acquire a production facility. The Company expects the transaction to close in April, 2022.

In February 2022, the Company signed a binding Letter of Intent to acquire Revolution Desserts ("Revolution"). Revolution owns or licenses the Gelato Fiasco, Sweet Scoops, Art Cream, and SoCo Creamery brands. Revolution was founded by Robert Carlson and Luciano Alves. Mr. Carlson and Charles Green run the day-to-day operations of the company. The Company expects the transaction to close in March 2022.

Revenue

We had $0 in revenue for the three months ended January 31, 2022, compared to $3,386 for the three months ended January 31, 2021. The decrease in revenue is due to a loss in retail food service customers.

Going Concern

As of January 31, 2022, there is substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern as we have not generated sufficient cash flow to fund our operations.

We have suffered recurring losses from operations and have not yet generated any revenue. As a result of these and other factors, our independent auditor has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our future success and viability, therefore, are dependent upon our ability to generate capital financing. The failure to generate sufficient revenues or raise additional capital may have a material and adverse effect upon us and our shareholders.

Management's plans with regard to these matters encompass the following actions: (i) obtaining funding from new investors to alleviate our working capital deficiency, and (ii) implementing our plan of operation to generate sales. Our continued existence is dependent upon our ability to resolve our liquidity problems and increase profitability in our business operations. However, the outcome of management's plans cannot be ascertained with any degree of certainty. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these risks and uncertainties.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no 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.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Note 2 to the Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Financial Statements. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, contingencies and taxes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The following critical accounting policies are impacted significantly by judgments, assumptions, and estimates used in the preparation of the Financial Statements.

We are subject to various loss contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. We consider the likelihood of loss or impairment of an asset or the incurrence of a liability, as well as our ability to reasonably estimate the amount of loss in determining loss contingencies. An estimated loss contingency is accrued when management concludes that it is probable that an asset has been impaired, or a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. We regularly evaluate current information available to us to determine whether such accruals should be adjusted.

We recognize deferred tax assets (future tax benefits) and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the book carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the expected future tax return consequences of those differences, which are expected to be either deductible or taxable when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Future tax benefits have been fully offset by a 100% valuation allowance as management is unable to determine that it is more likely than not that this deferred tax asset will be realized.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We have reviewed other recently issued accounting pronouncements and plan to adopt those that are applicable to us. We do not expect the adoption of any other pronouncements to have an impact on our results of operations or financial position.
