FOREVERGREEN WORLDWIDE CORPORATION

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)


NOTE 1 – CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the period ended March 31, 2014 and for all periods presented have been made.


Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s December 31, 2013 audited financial statements as reported in its Form 10-K. The results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year ended December 31, 2014.


NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN


The Company's financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has been profitable for the past 3 quarters and has incurred operating income during the three months ended March 31, 2014 of $181,052, but the Company has an accumulated net loss totaling $35,066,568. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on consistently having continued profitable quarters.


In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, increased revenues, additional capital resources. Management's plan is to obtain such resources for the Company by obtaining capital from management and significant shareholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses and seeking equity and/or debt financing. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.


The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.


NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated balance sheets and statement of operations at March 31, 2014 include the books of ForeverGreen Worldwide Corporation (Nevada) and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the consolidation.

FOREVERGREEN WORLDWIDE CORPORATION

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)


NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued


Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s functional currency is recorded in various currencies, corresponding to the various foreign subsidiaries and its reporting currency is the United States dollar. Management has adopted ASC 830-20, “Foreign Currency Matters – Foreign Currency Transactions.”  All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. For revenues and expenses, the weighted average exchange rate for the period is used.  Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in other comprehensive loss.


Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term nature of these financial instruments. The carrying amounts reported for notes payable approximate fair value because the underlying instruments are at interest rates which approximate current market rates.


Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Our potentially dilutive shares, which include outstanding common stock options, common stock warrants and convertible debentures, have not been included in the computation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for all periods presented, as the results would be anti-dilutive. Such potentially dilutive shares are excluded when the effect would be to reduce net loss per share. There were -0- and 15,755 such potentially dilutive shares excluded as of March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. There were 828,651 such potentially dilutive shares included as of March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.


Revenue Recognition

Revenues and costs of revenues are recognized during the period in which the products are provided. The Company applies the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605-10, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements ASC 605-10, which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation, and disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the SEC. ASC 605-10 outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies. In general, the Company recognizes revenue for sale of products when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.

FOREVERGREEN WORLDWIDE CORPORATION

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)


NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – continued


Revenue Recognition - continued

The Company’s source of revenue is from the sale of various food and other natural products. The Company recognizes the sale upon shipment of such goods. The Company offers a 100% satisfaction guarantee against defects for 30 days after the sale of their product except for a few circumstances. The Company extends this return policy to its distributors for a 30 day period and the consumer has the same return policy in effect against the distributor. All conditions of ASC 605-10 are met and the revenue is recorded upon sale, with an estimated allowance for returns where material.


Inventory

Inventory is recorded at the lower of cost or market and valued on a first-in, first-out basis. Inventory consists primarily of consumable food products and ingredients. Food products are discarded as they reach the expiration dates because the food products are made with natural foods containing a minimum of preservatives. Non-food products are reviewed periodically to determine any obsolescence and a reserve is booked when appropriate. The products have expiration dates that range from 3 months on some of the food products to 2 years for non-food products. On March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013. The reserve for obsolete inventory has balances in the amount of $89,050 and $5,660, respectively. This increase of allowance is due to receiving some defective inventory that the Company is trying to return to the vendor.


Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable arise from doing business with third party distributor centers in various locations throughout South America. The accounts receivable are made up of fees owed by the distribution centers to the Company for the right to do business in our name. The Company evaluates the need for an allowance for doubtful accounts when it is determined that collection amounts owed is unlikely. No allowance has been recorded at March 31, 2014 compared to an allowance of $29,234 at December 31, 2013. The $29,234 was written off in the first quarter of 2014 as the receivable in question will not be collected.


Distributors are required to pay for products prior to shipment. Distributors typically pay for products in cash, by wire transfer or by credit card. Accordingly, the Company seldom carries accounts receivable from distributors that are not distribution centers and any balances carried would be minimal.


Valuation of Long-lived Assets

In accordance with ASC 360-10, the carrying values of the Company’s long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that they may not be recoverable. The Company records impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used or to be disposed of when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying amount.  The Company’s assessment of events and circumstances indicated that an analysis for impairment of long-lived assets as of March 31, 2014 was not needed.


Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist of patent costs, trademark costs and the customer base. Patent costs are costs incurred to develop and file patent applications. Trademark costs are costs incurred to develop and file trademark applications. If the patents or trademarks are approved, the costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated lives of 7 years for patents and 10 years for trademarks. Unsuccessful patent and trademark application costs are expensed at the time the application is denied. Management assesses the carrying values of long-lived assets for

impairment when circumstances warrant such a review. In performing this assessment, management considers current market analysis of the technology and future cash flows.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – continued

 

Intangible Assets – continued

The Company recognizes impairment losses when undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated from long-lived assets are less than the net carrying amount of intangible assets. No impairment was recognized accordingly, during the periods ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.


Reclassification of Financial Statement Accounts

Certain amounts in the March 31, 2013 statement of operations and December 31, 2013 balance sheet have been reclassified to conform to the presentation in the March 31, 2014 financial statements. These amounts include cost of sales, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses, notes payable, and convertible notes payable.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements

After evaluating the recent accounting pronouncements through the date of this filing, the Company has concluded that application of these pronouncements will have no material impact on the Company’s financial results.

NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS


The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) encourages reporting companies to disclose forward-looking information so that investors can better understand future prospects and make informed investment decisions.  This report contains these types of statements.  Words such as “may,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” or “continue” or comparable terminology used in connection with any discussion of future operating results or financial performance identify forward-looking statements.  You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report.  All forward-looking statements reflect our present expectation of future events and are subject to a number of important factors and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements.



ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Executive Overview


ForeverGreen Worldwide is a holding company which operates through its wholly-owned subsidiary, ForeverGreen International, LLC.  


We intend to maintain our focus as a total lifestyle company, emphasizing our exclusive PowerStrips and SolarStrips global product offerings. We also intend to provide convenient whole food products for meals, snacks, nutritional support and weight management as well as a strategic mix of essential oils and personal care products in selected markets. PowerStrips are currently shipped to 166 countries and as our international markets mature, we will introduce additional products such as FrequenSea in the most advantageous regions. We actively seek relations with key vendors to continue developing innovative new products that are exclusive to our Members.


We introduced the FGXpress brand in November of 2012 featuring our proprietary PowerStrips natural pain relief product. The simple “one price, one product, one envelope” business model that takes PowerStrips to virtually any mailing address in the world continues to attract seasoned network marketing leaders to our independent distributor (Member) community. PowerStrips volume is a significant revenue driver with a sales trend averaging 30% growth per month since launch.

The introduction of SolarStrips, an exclusive raw food nutrition product that can also be mailed anywhere has been well received by our Members and we project substantial sales increases for 2014.

Key developments this period include a successful Member convention in Las Vegas with broad international

support from over 23 countries and significant progress in a major enterprise systems transition that improves our sales and commissions responsiveness. The Company invested in “fly in” events through the last quarter to introduce industry leaders to our products and business opportunity, resulting in measurable upticks in enrollment, sales activity and capital investments from multiple Member-leaders. We are preparing to occupy new office space which will not only support productivity but also enhance the public image of ForeverGreen.


Our major challenges for the next twelve months will be to stay responsive to economic conditions and properly manage our systems and regional logistics centers to support the growing demand for our products and business opportunity. Included in this challenge is the need to maintain a high standard of quality, service and Member satisfaction. We continue to expand and train a multi-lingual call center staff at the home office and selected international support hubs. Overcoming periodic economic shifts requires skilled personnel and responsive manufacturing and shipping facilities. Our management team is driving ongoing process improvement initiatives, especially in the areas of production, order fulfillment and worldwide commission payment processing.


To keep pace with our market and product growth, we are actively expanding our international logistics centers, with particular emphasis in Southeast Asia, Hong Kong and Latin America. The rewards of this strategy include increased sales performance and diversified market incomes. International expansion is very expensive and profitability in a given foreign country depends on key Members who can rapidly ramp up their business growth and volume in the target region. These new operating efficiencies address the current economic environment and are preparing the Company for an upturn in demand as people continue to seek out alternative income opportunities.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


At March 31, 2014 we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,412,245, with a working capital deficit of $596,505.  We recognized product revenues of $10,536,402 and recorded comprehensive income of $168,357 for the three month period ended March 31, 2014 (“2014 first quarter”) compared to product revenues of $2,694,478 and comprehensive loss of $213,049 for the three month period ended March 31, 2013 (“2013 first quarter”).  During the 2014 first quarter we financed our operations with revenues and $1,700,000 investment capital from the sale of common stock.


Based on the results of our 2013 10-K, our independent auditors have expressed an opinion that there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.


Management continues to negotiate better costs and terms with our key vendors to lower our cost of goods sold.  New products have been and will continue to be introduced to bolster Member recruiting and product sales.  In addition, management intends to improve our marketing plan to enhance overall profitability.  Our management will continue to scrutinize expenses related to our operating activities and order fulfillment to determine appropriate actions to take to reduce these costs; however, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to return to profitability in the short term.  


Management anticipates that any future additional capital needed for cash shortfalls will be provided by debt financing.  We may pay these loans with cash, if available, or convert these loans into common stock.  We may also issue private placements of stock to raise additional funding.  Any private placement likely will rely upon exemptions from registration provided by federal and state securities laws.  The purchasers and manner of issuance will be determined according to our financial needs and the available exemptions.  We also note that if we issue more shares of our common stock then our shareholders may experience dilution in the value per share of their common stock.  


Commitments and Contingent Liabilities


Our total liabilities at March 31, 2014 were $6,819,041 compared to $6,301,037 at December 31, 2013.  The increase reflects a net increase of accrued expenses of $681,148 due to increased commissions payable resulting




12




from higher revenues from our members during the first quarter of 2014 compared to the end of the 2013.  Net deferred revenue decreased by $214,571 due to being able to ship most orders for the quarter at the end of the 2014 first quarter compared to the 2013 year end.  Accounts payable increased by $141,768 due to increased volume of sales for the quarter which requires higher inventory reserves to keep up with the growth.  Notes payable from non-related parties decreased to $92,886. This decrease is due to paying down one of the notes.


On October 11, 2013, NuStar Manufacturing filed a complaint in the Fourth Judicial District Court of the state of Utah, claiming a debt owed of $44,322 from ForeverGreen International, LLC.  On February 6, 2014, the parties entered into a Settlement and Release of All Claims.  The final payment under the agreement will be paid on or before May 30, 2014, and the case will be dismissed at that time. ForeverGreen Worldwide paid off the debt in full on April 21, 2014 and the terms of the settlement have been fulfilled.


On March 17, 2014 the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock for $1,000,000 cash to a non-related party. At the end of the negotiated agreement the non-related party paid $700,000 cash and issued a note of $300,000 payable to the Company.  On May 9, 2014 the Company received a $300,000 payment from an investor towards the subscription receivable.


On May 1, 2014 the Company paid off a note payable from Wells Fargo Bank in the amount of $16,200.

We experienced a 291.1% increase in revenues in the 2014 first quarter over the 2013 first quarter resulting from a better than expected revenues from FGX PowerStrips sales, our newest product which makes up the majority of the increase in our revenues. Our revenue is also from the sale of various foods, other natural products, member sign ups and kits and freight and handling to deliver products to the members and customers.  We recognize revenue upon shipment of a sales order.


Gross profits increased due to increased revenues and reducing our two largest cost of sales expense, product costs and shipping, as we were able to optimize pricing with our key vendors.  Product costs also decreased because the majority of the Company’s sales were from FGX PowerStrips and the product and shipping costs for that product line are lower than our FGI product lines.


Cost of sales consists primarily of the cost of procuring and packaging products, and the cost of shipping product to our international subsidiaries and warehouses and to our members, plus credit card sales processing fees.  Cost of sales was approximately 24.2 % of revenues for the 2014 first quarter compared to 34.0 % of revenues for the 2013 first quarter.  The 2014 first quarter decrease is primarily due to decreasing our product and shipping costs and the lower costs for our new product, FGX, which comprises a larger amount of sales in 2014.





14




Total operating expenses increased for the 2014 first quarter compared to the 2013 first quarter by $5,836,817. The majority of the increase is due to increasing the commissions paid out to our members, the hiring of more employees, and the increase in business operations.


Off-balance Sheet Arrangements


We have not entered into 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 and would be considered material to investors.


Critical Accounting Estimates


Intangible Assets  - The excess of the consideration paid for subsidiaries over the fair value of acquired tangible assets less the fair value of acquired liabilities is assigned to intangible assets.  We rely on an independent third party valuation to ascertain the amount to allocate to identifiable intangible assets, and the useful lives of those assets.  We amortize identifiable intangible assets over their useful life unless that life is determined to be indefinite.  The useful life of an intangible asset that is being amortized is evaluated each reporting period as to whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization.  


We calculated ForeverGreen International’s customer base intangible using a percentage of the gross margin of ForeverGreen International.  We will amortize the customer base over a period of ten years.  


Impairment - We record impairment of long-lived assets to be held and used or to be disposed of when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying amount. The Company did an annual analysis for the period ended December 31, 2013 and determined no adjustment to long-lived assets was needed. No impairment was recorded during the three month period ended March 31, 2014.

Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.



ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Disclosure Controls and Procedures


We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our filings under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC.  This information is accumulated to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report and concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.  


Changes to Internal Control over Financial Reporting


Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act).  Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth in “Internal Control - Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Our management has determined that there were no changes made in the implementation of our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely
