PART I

ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

THE COMPANY AND OUR BUSINESS

GrowLife, Inc. (“GrowLife” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware and is headquartered in Seattle, Washington. We were founded in 2012 with the Closing of the Agreement and Plan of Merger with SGT Merger Corporation. We have authorized common stock of 3,000,000,000 shares at $0.0001 par value and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 were authorized by the shareholders. In addition, on October 21, 2015 we issued 150,000 Series B Preferred Stock at a stated value equal to $10.00 per share that is convertible into our common stock. On October 21, 2015, we also issued 51 shares of Series C Preferred Stock at $0.0001 par value per share.

Our goal of becoming the nation’s largest cultivation facility service provider for the production of organics, herbs and greens and plant-based medicines has not changed. Our mission is to best serve more cultivators in the design, build-out, expansion and maintenance of their facilities with products of high quality, exceptional value and competitive price. Through knowledgeable representatives, regional centers and its e-commerce website, GrowLife provides essential and hard-to-find goods including media (i.e., farming soil), industry-leading hydroponics equipment, organic plant nutrients, and thousands more products to specialty grow operations across the United States.

We primarily sell through our wholly owned subsidiary, GrowLife Hydroponics, Inc. In addition to the promotion and sales of GrowLife owned brands, GrowLife companies distribute and sell over 3,000 products through its e-commerce distribution channel, Greners.com, and through our regional retail storefronts. GrowLife and its business units are organized and directed to operate strictly in accordance with all applicable state and federal laws.

Resumed Trading of our Common Stock

On February 18, 2016, our common stock resumed unsolicited quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board after receiving clearance from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) on our Form 15c2-11. We are currently taking the appropriate steps to uplist to the OTCQB Exchange and resume priced quotations with market makers as soon as it is able.

Overcoming Company Challenges

We grew through a series of acquisitions in 2012 and 2013 leading to seven retail stores. In 2013 we expected to grow through the following three key initiatives (i) expanding to 30 retail stores at an expected average annual revenue of $1.25 million with 12 stores in 2014 resulting in sales of $15 million; (ii) educating the investment community of the demand for indoor growing equipment from the cannabis industry; and (iii) engaging a joint venture investor willing to provide financial resources for acquisitions and strategic investments. The three initiatives were expected to help position us as the leading supplier and participating investor to the emerging cannabis industry and were therefore announced and allocated resources with those goals in mind.

The retail expansion plan, starting in July 2013, was expected to maintain the pre-acquisition revenue pace of GrowLife Hydroponics’ earlier purchase of Rocky Mountain Hydroponics, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (“RMC”), and Evergreen Garden Center, LLC, a Maine limited liability company (“EGC”), and generate sales of $5.5 million in 2013. For several reasons, GrowLife Hydroponics achieved 2013 revenue of $4.8 million. In addition, GrowLife Hydroponics opened two more stores in Plaistow, New Hampshire and Peabody, Massachusetts. This seven store expansion across five states exposed three issues with the retail expansion plan: (i) the cost of inventory, integration and ramp up in offsetting revenue was under-estimated; (ii) the laws, policies and resulting customer purchase process across the five states varied greatly and lowered the expected economies of scale benefit; and (iii) the increasing competitive hydroponic supplier market, stemming from manufacturers selling directly to cultivators, lowered expected operating margins. The lack of financial resources to offset the operating losses from the retail expansion initiative necessitated a change of our plans.

An education initiative was formed where GrowLife engaged Grass Roots Research and Distribution, Inc., a market research and marketing firm, to study our 2013 plan, the emerging growth of the cannabis industry and estimate the possible financial impact to GrowLife and its valuation. Sets of reports were published and supported with GrowLife press releases to educate the new industry and generate greater awareness of GrowLife. While this initiative proved successful in 2013, we ceased to engage Grass Roots in 2014, after we changed our business strategy.

The third investor initiative was formed in November 2013, through the Organic Growth International, LLC (“OGI”), a joint venture, between GrowLife and CANX USA LLC (“CANX”). CANX would provide the financial resources for OGI to facilitate acquisitions and strategic investments. GrowLife issued warrants for 240 million GrowLife shares to CANX and CANX would provide up to $40 million in mutually agreed upon investments, $1 million in a convertible note and a $1.3 million commitment towards the GrowLife Infrastructure Funding & Technology (“GIFT”) program. GrowLife received the $1 million as a convertible note in December 2013, received the $1.3 million commitment but not executed and by January 2014 OGI had Letters of Intent with four investment and acquisition transactions valued at $96 million. Before the deals could close, the SEC put a trading halt on our stock on April 10, 2014, which resulted in the withdrawal of all transactions. The business disruption from the trading halt and the resulting class action and derivative lawsuits ceased further investments with the OGI joint venture.

Starting in June 2014 we focused on cost reductions with minimal revenue loss as our focus. The primary reduction in operating costs came from (i) streamlining non-profitable personnel, lowering expenses by replacing the Woodland Hills, California headquarters with that of Seattle, Washington that serves more people at a lower cost; (ii) closing the unprofitable Peabody, Massachusetts, Woodland Hills, California and Plaistow, New Hampshire stores and Boulder, Colorado; (iii) relocating the Greners.com e-commerce operation from Santa Rosa, California to the Vail, Colorado store until a new Denver facility is set up; (iv) reducing full-time employees from 46 to 8 as of December 31, 2015; and (v) closing the Phototron subsidiary in California. While transition costs were paid out, the repurposing of company resources is expected to reduce our operating expenses and allows for greater market reach and efficiencies.

However, the challenges of operating a public company under the strains grey market trading and lawsuits, as well as limited access to investment capital kept the company lean. We also chose to convert inventory into cash. This reduced our inventory level from approximately $1.8 million during 2014 to $400,000 as of December 31, 2015 and lowered our gross margins to 14.8% for the year ended December 31, 2015. This conscientious decision was made to help us transition through this period. Also, we reduced our general and administrative expenses from approximately $7.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 to $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2015.

We remain focused on hiring the best people to expand our direct sales personnel. These personnel are knowledgeable in using the most progressive growing technologies that fit our customer’s needs. Whether they are small-scale local cultivation facilities or large-scale regional cultivators, our customer service team recommends smart medium, cost-effective lighting and ventilation, and the right nutrients that are best suited for the crop objective. Our knowledge layer is strategic for the evolution of the indoor growing industry. Unlike an outdoor superstore, GrowLife serves the specialty cultivation business as indoor crops are designed to deliver multiple grow cycles with greater quality and yield not available in outdoor agriculture. Technologies will be available to provide our customers with a way to further tune their ordering process and crop development using their own experience.

Customer Insights

GrowLife has the unique advantage of working with many cultivators of all sizes across most states that have differing laws and policies for indoor growing. This advantage has given us insights into our customers changing needs. During the last twelve months we have seen a dramatic change in many key areas that required us to adjust our strategies even faster than expected. For example, we expected the retail business to be eclipsed by e-commerce and direct sales combined, however, we now see that each one is surpassing retail sales. While localized, on-hand inventory has a benefit to most cultivators; price, by far, is driving most purchasing decisions. Simply putting up an e-commerce website without a presence in the retail and direct channels is not enough to engage the leading suppliers. Therefore, it remains critical that GrowLife continues to execute its multi-channel strategy, albeit at a different composition.

The driving force behind the customer’s pricing pressure is not that cultivators are greedily seeking to increase their profits or capitalize on the expected commoditization of growing equipment and supplies. Instead, cultivators are quickly adjusting their business models to make a profit. Also, the innovation of optimized indoor growing equipment and supplies is keeping them from becoming a commodity. Indoor cultivation business models, whether they are organic fruits and vegetables or cannabis, have been based on supplying a premium priced crop to serve increasing demand. The dynamics where most of the volume produced is based on supplying a premium crop that is saturating premium demand means that the premium price will drop. Almost two years ago, a 1/8 of an ounce of premium cannabis was selling for about $70. Today, the same crop in the same market sells for less than half that price and the surplus that is being sold in the non-premium market is selling for about 25% of the price; in some cases, for less. Source: bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-06-22/this-survey-says-that-marijuana-prices-are-crashing-in-Colorado.

Our observations from customers reveal that the more sophisticated cultivators have made the business model adjust and most new cultivators have not distinguished the new price elasticity of demand. In the chart below, the demand line (green) for high grade intersected supply line (red) to define an equilibrium price point. As new cultivators entered the market they assumed that demand would increase for high grade and create what we call a phantom demand (gray) so that the increase in overall supply would lead to an increase in price (Pp). However, many reports support that the increase in supply stayed aligned with the original demand (green) and has led to the lower new price (Pn). The overall increase in demand that is commonly mentioned is not for high grade but for commercial grade, which is used for edibles and a less sophisticated palate. Source: narcoticnews.com/drug-prices/marijuana/

The cost of indoor growing, which included equipment, supplies, water, electricity, housing and skilled labor, requires capital. The risk and limited supply of the capital demanded a higher cost for the cannabis market than that of common fruits and vegetables. The cultivator has found themselves needing to pay more from their crop than expected and needing to sell at close to last year’s prices to achieve a reasonable return. Many customers have indicated that they were prepared to accept a 20-30% drop in selling price, but a 50% drop has created business challenges.

Another unanticipated issue is the separation of dispensaries (cannabis retailers) from the cultivation process. Cultivators now must market their crop to dispensaries that make higher margins, but have many supplier choices. This is leading to the segmentation between boutique premiums versus large commercial grade operations. Thus, the business model adjustments those cultivators are going through. Premium growers seek to scale in order to cover expenses and commercial grade cultivators must decrease prices or introduce quality production to win over dispensaries.

We are working with cultivators of all sizes, across all states at different stages; all of which are seeking to lower operating costs. Since resources such as water and electricity are limited and expensive, we help cultivators get more with less. Vertical farming has become a real and practical cultivation process for volume where a 20-by-30 square foot room that normally houses about 150 plants can now grow over 550 plants, almost three times more. Specially designed vertical lighting with 360-degree coverage and using 35% less power now delivers the necessary light with less heat, thus lowering the HVAC power demand. Finally, specially designed pots automatically control both watering and drainage efficiently. We have both the expertise and supplier relationships to help cultivators scale up with configurations like these.

Market Size and Growth

As the states across the country approve medicinal cannabis usage, with different THC and CBD compositions, cultivators purchase equipment and supplies from GrowLife and similar indoor growing supply companies.Therefore, as the cannabis market grows so does the revenue growth opportunity for us. Researchers from The ArcView Group, a cannabis industry investment and research firm based in Oakland, California, found that the U.S. market for cannabis grew 74 percent in 2014 to $2.7 billion, up from $1.5 billion in 2013. Today, 23 states plus Washington, DC have legalized cannabis for medical use and four states plus Washington, DC have passed recreational use into law.

We serve a new, yet sophisticated community of commercial and urban cultivators growing specialty crops including organics, greens and plant-based medicines. Unlike the traditional agricultural industry, these cultivators use innovative indoor growing techniques to produce specialty crops in highly controlled environments. This enables them to produce crops at higher yields without having to compromise quality - regardless of the season or weather and drought conditions.

Indoor growing techniques have primarily been used to cultivate plant-based medicines. Plant-based medicines often require high-degree of regulation and controls including government compliance, security, and crop consistency, making indoor growing techniques a preferred method. Cultivators of plant-based medicines often make a significant investment to design and build-out their facilities. They look to work with companies such as GrowLife who understand their specific needs, and can help mitigate risks that could jeopardize their crops.

The ArcView report indicates that plant-based medicines are the fastest-growing market in the U.S., and conservatively predicts the market could be worth more than $10 billion within five years. Several industry pundits including Dr. Sanjay Gupta of CNN believe that plant-based medicines may even displace prescription pain medication by providing patients with a safer, more affordable alternative.

Indoor growing techniques, however, are not limited to plant-based medicines. Vertical farms producing organic fruits and vegetables are beginning to emerge in the market due to a rising shortage of farmland, and environmental vulnerabilities including drought, other severe weather conditions and insect pests. Indoor growing techniques enables cultivators to grow crops all-year-round in urban areas, and take up less ground while minimizing environmental risks. Indoor growing techniques typically require a more significant upfront investment to design and build-out these facilities, than traditional farmlands. If new innovations lower the costs for indoor growing, and the costs to operate traditional farmlands continue to rise, then indoor growing techniques may be a compelling alternative for the broader agricultural industry.

Strategy

Our goal is to become the nation’s largest cultivation facility service provider for the production of organics, herbs and greens and plant-based medicines. We intend to achieve our goal by (i) expanding our nationwide, multi-channel sales network presence, (ii) offering the best terms for the full range of build-out equipment and consumable supplies, and (iii) deliver superior, innovative products exclusively.

First, we provide distribution through retail, e-commerce and direct sales to have national coverage and serve cultivators of all sizes. Each channel offers varying pricing for differing benefits. Retail sells at list price by offering inventory convenience, e-commerce provides the lowest price without requiring local inventory, and direct sales delivers the best bid price for high-volume purchasers. Additional points of service may be added through existing distribution locations and services. This may be done in several manners such as a value-added reseller program that reaches hundreds of cultivator-centric locations or with collations with other resellers.

Second, we serve the needs of all size cultivators and each one’s unique formulation. We provide thousands of varieties of supplies from dozens of vendors and distributors. More importantly is our experience of knowing which products to recommend under each customer’s circumstance. Growing operations seeking expansion may also qualify for leasing terms by one of our financing partner.

And third, our experience with hundreds of customers allows us to determine specific product needs and sources to test new designs. Lights, pesticides, nutrients, extraction and growing systems are some examples of products that GrowLife has obtained exclusive access to purchase and distribute. Popular name branded products are seeking to be part of the GrowLife Company in many forms. In exchange, we can market their products in a unique manner over generic products.

Our company will expand on these strategies until it serves all the indoor cultivators throughout the country. Once a customer is engaged, we will gradually expand their purchasing market share by providing greater economic benefit to the customers who buy more products from GrowLife than from other suppliers.

Key Market Priorities

Demand for indoor growing equipment is currently high due to legalization of plant-based medicines, primarily cannabis, which is mainly due to equipment purchases for build-out and repeated consumables. This demand is projected to continue to grow as a result of the supporting state laws in 23 states and the District of Columbia. Continued innovation in more efficient build-out technologies along with larger and consolidated cultivation facilities will further expand market demand for our products and services.

We expect for the market to continue to segment into urban farmers serving groups of individuals, community cultivators, and large-scale cultivation facilities across the states. Each segment will be optimized to different distribution channels that we currently provide. Our volume purchasing will allow us to obtain the best prices and maximize both our revenues and gross margins.

The nature of the cannabis industry’s inefficiencies due to the lack of interstate commerce imposed by the Federal government has segmented the market opportunities by State laws, population and demand. Currently, Colorado laws and population demand make it the most progressive and top market in the industry. We have elected to have a major retail presence in Colorado with our direct sales team and centralized our national e-commerce operations. We are currently reaching most of the legal states using both direct sales and seek to re-introduce GrowLife eco products to other hydroponic retailers.

Employees

Starting in 2014 and as of December 31, 2015, we reduced our manpower count from 46 to 8 by leveraging our resources across many areas. All company operations are continually reviewed for growth opportunities and direct sales along with GrowLife eco, a premium line of eco-friendly products, is planned to enable the Company to expand its coverage in a cost-effective manner.

As of March 30, 2016, we had one full-time employee and one consultant at our Seattle, Washington office. Marco Hegyi, our President, is based in Seattle, Washington. Mark E. Scott, our consulting CFO, is based out of in Seattle, Washington. In addition, we have 7 employees located throughout the United States who operate our e-commerce, direct sales and retail businesses. None of our employees is subject to a collective bargaining agreement or represented by a trade or labor union. We believe that we have a good relationship with our employees.

Key Partners

Our key customers varying by state and are expected to be more defined as the company moves from its retail walk-in purchasing sales strategy to serving cultivation facilities directly and under predictable purchasing contracts.

Our key suppliers include distributors such as HydroFarm, Urban Horticultural Supply and Sunlight Supply to product-specific suppliers. All the products purchased and resold are applicable to indoor growing for organics, greens, and plant-based medicines.

Competition

Certain large commercial cultivators have found themselves willing to assume their own equipment support by buying large volume purchased directly from certain suppliers and distributors such as Sunlight Supplies, HydroFarm, and UHS. Other key competitors on the retail side consist of local and regional hydroponic resellers of indoor growing equipment. On the e-commerce business, GrowersHouse.com, Hydrobuilder.com, HorticultureSource.com and smaller online resellers using Amazon and eBay e-commerce market systems.

Intellectual Property and Proprietary Rights

Our intellectual property consists of brands and their related trademarks and websites, customer lists and affiliations, product know-how and technology, and marketing intangibles.

Our other intellectual property is primarily in the form of trademarks and domain names. We also hold rights to more than 30 website addresses related to our business including websites that are actively used in our day-to-day business such as www.growlifeinc.com, www.growlifeeco.com, www.stealthgrow.com, and www.greners.com.

We have a policy of entering into confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements with our employees and some of our vendors and customers as necessary.

Government Regulation

Currently, there are twenty-three states plus the District of Columbia that have laws and/or regulation that recognize in one form or another legitimate medical uses for cannabis and consumer use of cannabis in connection with medical treatment. About a dozen other states are considering legislation to similar effect. There are currently four states that allow recreational use of cannabis. As of the date of this writing, the policy and regulations of the Federal government and its agencies is that cannabis has no medical benefit and a range of activities including cultivation and use of cannabis for personal use is prohibited on the basis of federal law and may or may not be permitted on the basis of state law. Active enforcement of the current federal regulatory position on cannabis on a regional or national basis may directly and adversely affect the willingness of customers of GrowLife to invest in or buy products from GrowLife. Active enforcement of the current federal regulatory position on cannabis may thus indirectly and adversely affect revenues and profits of the GrowLife companies.

All this being said, many reports show that the majority of the American public is in favor of making medical cannabis available as a controlled substance to those patients who need it. The need and consumption will then require cultivators to continue to provide safe and compliant crops to consumers. The cultivators will then need to build facilities and use consumable products, which GrowLife provides.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

There are certain inherent risks which will have an effect on the Company’s development in the future and the most significant risks and uncertainties known and identified by our management are described below.

Risks Related to Our Business

Risks associated with our funding from TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP (“TCA”).

On July 9, 2015, we closed a Securities Purchase Agreement and related agreements with TCA Global Credit Master Fund LP, an accredited investor, whereby we agreed to sell and TCA agreed to purchase up to $3,000,000 of senior secured convertible, redeemable debentures, of which $700,000 was purchased on July 9, 2015 and up to $2,300,000 may be purchased in additional closings. The closing of the Transaction occurred on July 9, 2015.

On August 6, 2015, we closed a Securities Purchase Agreement and related agreements with TCA Global Credit Master Fund LP, whereby we agreed to sell and TCA agreed to purchase a $100,000 senior secured convertible redeemable debenture and we agreed to issue and sell to TCA, from time to time, and TCA agreed to purchase from us up to $3,000,000 of the Company’s common stock pursuant to a Committed Equity Facility. The closing of the Transaction occurred on August 6, 2015.

On October 27, 2015, we entered into an Amended and Restated Securities Purchase Agreement and related agreements with TCA Global Credit Master Fund LP whereby we agreed to sell, and TCA agreed to purchase $350,000 of senior secured convertible, redeemable debentures. We previously entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of April 30, 2015 and effective as of July 9, 2015 to purchase up to $3,000,000 in Debentures. As of October 27, 2015, we sold $1,050,000 in Debentures to TCA and up to $1,950,000 in Debentures remains for sale by us. The closing of the transaction occurred on October 27, 2015. In addition, TCA has advanced us an additional $100,000 for a total of $1,150.000. Also, on October 21, 2015 we issued 150,000 Series B Preferred Stock at a stated value equal to $10.00 per share to TCA that is convertible into our common stock. On October 21, 2015, we also issued 51 shares of Series C Preferred Stock at $0.0001 par value per share to TCA that is not convertible into our common stock. In the event of a default under the Amended and Restated TCA Transaction Documents, TCA can exercise voting control over our common stock with their Series C Preferred Stock voting rights

As of April 14, 2016, we are in default on our repayment obligations in our Agreements with TCA and owe TCA approximately $254,000 in principal and interest payments. We are working to resolve these issues.

Failure to operate in accordance with the Agreements with TCA could result in the cancellation of these agreements, result in foreclosure on our assets in event of default and would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Suspension of trading of the Company’s securities.

On April 10, 2014, we received notice from the SEC that trading of the Company’s common stock on the OTCBB was to be suspended from April 10, 2014 through April 24, 2014. The SEC issued its order pursuant to Section 12(k) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. According to the notice received by us from the SEC: “It appears to the Securities and Exchange Commission that the public interest and the protection of investors require a suspension of trading in the securities of GrowLife, Inc. because of concerns regarding the accuracy and adequacy of information in the marketplace and potentially manipulative transactions in GrowLife’s common stock.” To date, the Company has not received notice from the SEC that it is being formally investigated.

The suspension of trading eliminated our market makers, resulted in our trading on the grey sheets, resulted in legal proceedings and restricted our access to capital. This action had a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. If we are unable to obtain additional financing when it is needed, we will need to restructure our operations, and divest all or a portion of our business.

SEC charges outsiders with manipulating our securities.

On August 5, 2014, the SEC charged four promoters with ties to the Pacific Northwest for manipulating our securities. The SEC alleged that the four promoters bought inexpensive shares of thinly traded penny stock companies on the open market and conducted pre-arranged, manipulative matched orders and wash trades to create the illusion of an active market in these stocks. They then sold their shares in coordination with aggressive third party promotional campaigns that urged investors to buy the stocks because the prices were on the verge of rising substantially. This action has had a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. If we are unable to obtain additional financing when it is needed, we will need to restructure our operations, and divest all or a portion of our business.

On July 9, 2015, the SEC entered into settlements with two of the promoters. In connection with the settlement of their SEC action, the two men are liable for disgorgement of approximately $2.1 million and $306,000 in illicit profits, respectively. Earlier this year the two men were also sentenced to five and three years in prison, respectively, for their participation in the scheme.

We are involved in Legal Proceedings.

We are involved in the disputes and legal proceedings as discussed in this Form 10-K. In addition, as a public company, we are also potentially susceptible to litigation, such as claims asserting violations of securities laws. Any such claims, with or without merit, if not resolved, could be time-consuming and result in costly litigation. There can be no assurance that an adverse result in any future proceeding would not have a potentially material adverse on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Our Joint Venture Agreement with CANX USA, LLC is important to our operations.

On July 10, 2014, we closed a Waiver and Modification Agreement, Amended and Restated Joint Venture Agreement, Secured Credit Facility and Secured Convertible Note with CANX, and Logic Works LLC, a lender and shareholder of the Company. The Agreements require the filing of a registration statement on Form S-1 within 10 days of the filing of our Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2014. Due to our grey sheet trading status and other issues, we did not file the registration statement.

Previously, we entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with CANX USA LLC, a Nevada limited liability company. Under the terms of the Joint Venture Agreement, the Company and CANX formed Organic Growth International, LLC (“OGI”), a Nevada limited liability company, for the purpose of expanding the Company’s operations in its current retail hydroponic businesses and in other synergistic business verticals and facilitating additional funding for commercially financeable transactions of up to $40,000,000. In connection with the closing of the Agreement, CANX agreed to provide a commitment for funding in the amount of $1,300,000 for a GrowLife Infrastructure Funding Technology program transaction and provided additional funding under a 7% Convertible Note instrument for $1,000,000, including $500,000 each from Logic Works and China West III Investments LLC, entities that are unaffiliated with CANX and operate as separate legal entities. We initially owned a non-dilutive 45% share of OGI and we may acquire a controlling share of OGI as provided in the Joint Venture Agreement. In accordance with the Joint Venture Agreement, the Company and CANX entered into a Warrant Agreement whereby the Company delivered to CANX a warrant to purchase 140,000,000 shares of the Company common stock at a maximum strike price of $0.033 per share. Also in accordance with the Joint Venture Agreement, we issued an additional warrant to purchase 100,000,000 shares of our common stock at a maximum strike price of $0.033 per share on February 7, 2014.

On April 10, 2014, as a result of the suspension in the trading of our securities, we went into default on our 7% Convertible Notes Payable for $500,000 each from Logic Works and China West III. As a result, we accrued interest on these notes at the default rate of 24% per annum. Furthermore, as a result of being in default on these notes, the Holders could have, at their sole discretion, called these notes.

Waiver and Modification Agreement

We entered into a Waiver and Modification Agreement dated June 25, 2014 with Logic Works LLC whereby the 7% Convertible Note with Logic Works dated December 20, 2013 was modified to provide for (i) a waiver of the default under the 7% Convertible Note; (ii) a conversion price which is the lesser of (A) $0.025 or (B) twenty percent (20%) of the average of the three (3) lowest daily VWAPs occurring during the twenty (20) consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the applicable Conversion Date on which the Holder elects to convert all or part of this Note; (iii) the filing of a registration statement on Form S-1 within 10 days of the filing of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2014; and (iv) continuing interest of 24% per annum. China West III converted its Note into common stock on June 4, 2014. Due to our grey sheet trading status and other issues, we did not file the registration statement.

Amended and Restated Joint Venture Agreement

We entered into an Amended and Restated Joint Venture Agreement dated July 1, 2014 with CANX whereby the Joint Venture Agreement dated November 19, 2013 was modified to provide for (i) up to $12,000,000 in conditional financing subject to review by GrowLife and approval by OGI for business growth development opportunities in the legal cannabis industry for up to six months, subject to extension; (ii) up to $10,000,000 in working capital loans, with each loaning requiring approval in advance by CANX; (iii) confirmed that the five year warrants, subject to extension, at $0.033 per share for the purchase of 140,000,000 and 100,000,000 were fully earned and were not considered compensation for tax purposes by the Company; (iv) granted CANX five year warrants, subject to extension, to purchase 300,000,000 shares of common stock at the fair market price of $0.033 per share as determined by an independent appraisal; (v) warrants as defined in the Agreement related to the achievement of OGI milestones; (vi) a four year term, subject to adjustment and (vi) the filing of a registration statement on Form S-1 within 10 days of the filing of our Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2014. Due to our grey sheet trading status and other issues, we did not file the registration statement.

Secured Convertible Note and Secured Credit Facility

We entered into a Secured Convertible Note and Secured Credit Facility dated June 25, 2014 with Logic Works whereby Logic Works agreed to provide up to $500,000 in funding. Each funding requires approval in advance by Logic Works, provides for interest at 6% with a default interest of 24% per annum and requires repayment by June 26, 2016. The Note is convertible into our common stock at the lesser of $0.007 or (B) 20% of the average of the three (3) lowest daily VWAPs occurring during the 20 consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the applicable conversion date on which Logic Works elects to convert all or part of this 6% Convertible Note, subject to adjustment as provided in the Note. The 6% Convertible Note is collateralized by our assets. We also agreed to file a registration statement on Form S-1 within 10 days of the filing of our Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and have the registration statement declared effective within ninety days of the filing of our Form 10-Q for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Due to our grey sheet trading status and other issues, we did not file the registration statement.

On July 10, 2014, we closed a Waiver and Modification Agreement, Amended and Restated Joint Venture Agreement, Secured Credit Facility and Secured Convertible Note with CANX, and Logic Works LLC, a lender and shareholder of the Company. As of December 31, 2015, we have borrowed $350,000 under the Secured Convertible Note and Secured Credit Facility dated June 25, 2014 with Logic Works.

Failure to operate in accordance with the Agreements with CANX could result in the cancellation of these agreements, result in foreclosure on our assets in event of default and would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Our proposed business is dependent on laws pertaining to the marijuana industry.

Continued development of the marijuana industry is dependent upon continued legislative authorization of the use and cultivation of marijuana at the state level. Any number of factors could slow or halt progress in this area. Further, progress, while encouraging, is not assured. While there may be ample public support for legislative action, numerous factors impact the legislative process. Any one of these factors could slow or halt use of marijuana, which would negatively impact our proposed business.

As of November 30, 2015, 23 states and the District of Columbia allow its citizens to use medical marijuana. Additionally, 4 states have legalized cannabis for adult use. The state laws are in conflict with the federal Controlled Substances Act, which makes marijuana use and possession illegal on a national level. The Obama administration has effectively stated that it is not an efficient use of resources to direct law federal law enforcement agencies to prosecute those lawfully abiding by state-designated laws allowing the use and distribution of medical marijuana. However, there is no guarantee that the administration will not change its stated policy regarding the low-priority enforcement of federal laws. Additionally, any new administration that follows could change this policy and decide to enforce the federal laws strongly. Any such change in the federal government’s enforcement of current federal laws could cause significant financial damage to us and its shareholders.

Further, while we do not harvest, distribute or sell marijuana, by supplying products to growers of marijuana, we could be deemed to be participating in marijuana cultivation, which remains illegal under federal law, and exposes us to potential criminal liability, with the additional risk that our business could be subject to civil forfeiture proceedings.

The marijuana industry faces strong opposition.

It is believed by many that large, well-funded businesses may have a strong economic opposition to the marijuana industry. We believe that the pharmaceutical industry clearly does not want to cede control of any product that could generate significant revenue. For example, medical marijuana will likely adversely impact the existing market for the current “marijuana pill” sold by mainstream pharmaceutical companies. Further, the medical marijuana industry could face a material threat from the pharmaceutical industry, should marijuana displace other drugs or encroach upon the pharmaceutical industry’s products. The pharmaceutical industry is well funded with a strong and experienced lobby that eclipses the funding of the medical marijuana movement. Any inroads the pharmaceutical industry could make in halting or impeding the marijuana industry harm our business, prospects, results of operation and financial condition.

Marijuana remains illegal under Federal law.

Marijuana is a Schedule-I controlled substance and is illegal under federal law. Even in those states in which the use of marijuana has been legalized, its use remains a violation of federal law. Since federal law criminalizing the use of marijuana preempts state laws that legalize its use, strict enforcement of federal law regarding marijuana would harm our business, prospects, results of operation and financial condition.

Raising additional capital to implement our business plan and pay our debts will cause dilution to our existing stockholders, require us to restructure our operations, and divest all or a portion of our business.

We need additional financing to implement our business plan and to service our ongoing operations and pay our current debts. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure any needed funding, or that if such funding is available, the terms or conditions would be acceptable to us.

If we raise additional capital through borrowing or other debt financing, we may incur substantial interest expense. Sales of additional equity securities will dilute on a pro rata basis the percentage ownership of all holders of common stock. When we raise more equity capital in the future, it will result in substantial dilution to our current stockholders.

If we are unable to obtain additional financing when it is needed, we will need to restructure our operations, and divest all or a portion of our business.

We were in default on our convertible notes payable.

On April 10, 2014, as a result of the SEC suspension in the trading of our securities, we went into default on our 6% Senior Secured Convertible Notes Payable and our 7% Convertible Notes Payable. As a result, we accrued interest on these notes at the default rate of 12% and 24% per annum, respectively. Furthermore, as a result of being in default on these notes, the Holders could have, at their sole discretion, called these notes.

During July 2014, we reached settlement agreements with our holders of the 7% Convertible Notes Payable and we are not in default under any of our convertible notes payable. We are accruing interest at the interest rate in the settlement agreements. Any default could have a significant adverse effect on our cash flows and should we be unsuccessful in negotiating an extension or other modification, we may have to restructure our operations, divest all or a portion of its business, or file for bankruptcy.

Closing of bank accounts could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and/or results of operations.

As a result of the regulatory environment, we have experienced the closing of several of our bank accounts since March 2014. We have been able to open other bank accounts. However, we may have other banking accounts closed. These factors impact management and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and/or results of operations.

Federal regulation and enforcement may adversely affect the implementation of medical marijuana laws and regulations may negatively impact our revenues and profits.

Currently, there are twenty three states plus the District of Columbia that have laws and/or regulation that recognize in one form or another legitimate medical uses for cannabis and consumer use of cannabis in connection with medical treatment. Many other states are considering legislation to similar effect. As of the date of this writing, the policy and regulations of the Federal government and its agencies is that cannabis has no medical benefit and a range of activities including cultivation and use of cannabis for personal use is prohibited on the basis of federal law and may or may not be permitted on the basis of state law. Active enforcement of the current federal regulatory position on cannabis on a regional or national basis may directly and adversely affect the willingness of customers of GrowLife to invest in or buy products from GrowLife that may be used in connection with cannabis. Active enforcement of the current federal regulatory position on cannabis may thus indirectly and adversely affect revenues and profits of the GrowLife companies.

Our history of net losses has raised substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. If we do not continue as a going concern, investors could lose their entire investment.

Our history of net losses has raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, and as a result, our independent registered public accounting firm included an explanatory paragraph in its report on our financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 with respect to this uncertainty. Accordingly, our ability to continue as a going concern will require us to seek alternative financing to fund our operations. This going concern opinion could materially limit our ability to raise additional funds through the issuance of new debt or equity securities or otherwise. Future reports on our financial statements may include an explanatory paragraph with respect to our ability to continue as a going concern.

We have a history of operating losses and there can be no assurance that we can again achieve or maintain profitability.

We have experienced net losses since inception. As of December 31, 2015, we had an accumulated deficit of $116.7 million. There can be no assurance that we will achieve or maintain profitability.

We are subject to corporate governance and internal control reporting requirements, and our costs related to compliance with, or our failure to comply with existing and future requirements, could adversely affect our business.

We must comply with corporate governance requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, as well as additional rules and regulations currently in place and that may be subsequently adopted by the SEC and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. These laws, rules, and regulations continue to evolve and may become increasingly stringent in the future. We are required to include management’s report on internal controls as part of our annual report pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We strive to continuously evaluate and improve our control structure to help ensure that we comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The financial cost of compliance with these laws, rules, and regulations is expected to remain substantial.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to fully comply with these laws, rules, and regulations that address corporate governance, internal control reporting, and similar matters. Failure to comply with these laws, rules and regulations could materially adversely affect our reputation, financial condition, and the value of our securities.

Our management has concluded that we have material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting and that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of the company's financial reporting. During the review of our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015, our management identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. If these weaknesses continue, investors could lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports and other disclosures.

Our inability to effectively manage our growth could harm our business and materially and adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

Our strategy envisions growing our business. We plan to expand our product, sales, administrative and marketing organizations. Any growth in or expansion of our business is likely to continue to place a strain on our management and administrative resources, infrastructure and systems. As with other growing businesses, we expect that we will need to further refine and expand our business development capabilities, our systems and processes and our access to financing sources. We also will need to hire, train, supervise and manage new and retain contributing employees. These processes are time consuming and expensive, will increase management responsibilities and will divert management attention. We cannot assure you that we will be able to:

	●	expand our products effectively or efficiently or in a timely manner;
	●	allocate our human resources optimally;
	●	meet our capital needs;
	●	identify and hire qualified employees or retain valued employees; or
	●	incorporate effectively the components of any business or product line that we may acquire in our effort to achieve growth.

Our inability or failure to manage our growth and expansion effectively could harm our business and materially and adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

Our operating results may fluctuate significantly based on customer acceptance of our products. As a result, period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations are unlikely to provide a good indication of our future performance. Management expects that we will experience substantial variations in our net sales and operating results from quarter to quarter due to customer acceptance of our products. If customers don’t accept our products, our sales and revenues will decline, resulting in a reduction in our operating income.

Customer interest for our products could also be impacted by the timing of our introduction of new products. If our competitors introduce new products around the same time that we issue new products, and if such competing products are superior to our own, customers’ desire for our products could decrease, resulting in a decrease in our sales and revenues. To the extent that we introduce new products and customers decide not to migrate to our new products from our older products, our revenues could be negatively impacted due to the loss of revenue from those customers. In the event that our newer products do not sell as well as our older products, we could also experience a reduction in our revenues and operating income.

As a result of fluctuations in our revenue and operating expenses that may occur, management believes that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations are unlikely to provide a good indication of our future performance.

If we do not successfully generate additional products and services, or if such products and services are developed but not successfully commercialized, we could lose revenue opportunities.

Our future success depends, in part, on our ability to expand our product and service offerings. To that end we have engaged in the process of identifying new product opportunities to provide additional products and related services to our customers. The process of identifying and commercializing new products is complex and uncertain, and if we fail to accurately predict customers’ changing needs and emerging technological trends our business could be harmed. We may have to commit significant resources to commercializing new products before knowing whether our investments will result in products the market will accept. Furthermore, we may not execute successfully on commercializing those products because of errors in product planning or timing, technical hurdles that we fail to overcome in a timely fashion, or a lack of appropriate resources. This could result in competitors providing those solutions before we do and a reduction in net sales and earnings.

The success of new products depends on several factors, including proper new product definition, timely completion and introduction of these products, differentiation of new products from those of our competitors, and market acceptance of these products. There can be no assurance that we will successfully identify new product opportunities, develop and bring new products to market in a timely manner, or achieve market acceptance of our products or that products and technologies developed by others will not render our products or technologies obsolete or noncompetitive.

Our future success depends on our ability to grow and expand our customer base. Our failure to achieve such growth or expansion could materially harm our business.

To date, our revenue growth has been derived primarily from the sale of our products and through the purchase of existing businesses. Our success and the planned growth and expansion of our business depend on us achieving greater and broader acceptance of our products and expanding our customer base. There can be no assurance that customers will purchase our products or that we will continue to expand our customer base. If we are unable to effectively market or expand our product offerings, we will be unable to grow and expand our business or implement our business strategy. This could materially impair our ability to increase sales and revenue and materially and adversely affect our margins, which could harm our business and cause our stock price to decline.

If we incur substantial liability from litigation, complaints, or enforcement actions resulting from misconduct by our distributors, our financial condition could suffer. We will require that our distributors comply with applicable law and with our policies and procedures. Although we will use various means to address misconduct by our distributors, including maintaining these policies and procedures to govern the conduct of our distributors and conducting training seminars, it will still be difficult to detect and correct all instances of misconduct. Violations of applicable law or our policies and procedures by our distributors could lead to litigation, formal or informal complaints, enforcement actions, and inquiries by various federal, state, or foreign regulatory authorities against us and/or our distributors. Litigation, complaints, and enforcement actions involving us and our distributors could consume considerable amounts of financial and other corporate resources, which could have a negative impact on our sales, revenue, profitability and growth prospects. As we are currently in the process of implementing our direct sales distributor program, we have not been, and are not currently, subject to any material litigation, complaint or enforcement action regarding distributor misconduct by any federal, state or foreign regulatory authority.

Our future manufacturers could fail to fulfill our orders for products, which would disrupt our business, increase our costs, harm our reputation and potentially cause us to lose our market.

We may depend on contract manufacturers in the future to produce our products. These manufacturers could fail to produce products to our specifications or in a workmanlike manner and may not deliver the units on a timely basis. Our manufacturers may also have to obtain inventories of the necessary parts and tools for production. Any change in manufacturers to resolve production issues could disrupt our ability to fulfill orders. Any change in manufacturers to resolve production issues could also disrupt our business due to delays in finding new manufacturers, providing specifications and testing initial production. Such disruptions in our business and/or delays in fulfilling orders would harm our reputation and would potentially cause us to lose our market.

Our inability to effectively protect our intellectual property would adversely affect our ability to compete effectively, our revenue, our financial condition and our results of operations.

We may be unable to obtain intellectual property rights to effectively protect our business. Our ability to compete effectively may be affected by the nature and breadth of our intellectual property rights. While we intend to defend against any threats to our intellectual property rights, there can be no assurance that any such actions will adequately protect our interests. If we are unable to secure intellectual property rights to effectively protect our technology, our revenue and earnings, financial condition, and/or results of operations would be adversely affected.

We may also rely on nondisclosure and non-competition agreements to protect portions of our technology. There can be no assurance that these agreements will not be breached, that we will have adequate remedies for any breach, that third parties will not otherwise gain access to our trade secrets or proprietary knowledge, or that third parties will not independently develop the technology.

We do not warrant any opinion as to non-infringement of any patent, trademark, or copyright by us or any of our affiliates, providers, or distributors. Nor do we warrant any opinion as to invalidity of any third-party patent or unpatentability of any third-party pending patent application.

Our industry is highly competitive and we have less capital and resources than many of our competitors, which may give them an advantage in developing and marketing products similar to ours or make our products obsolete.

We are involved in a highly competitive industry where we may compete with numerous other companies who offer alternative methods or approaches, may have far greater resources, more experience, and personnel perhaps more qualified than we do. Such resources may give our competitors an advantage in developing and marketing products similar to ours or products that make our products obsolete. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully compete against these other entities.

Transfers of our securities may be restricted by virtue of state securities “blue sky” laws, which prohibit trading absent compliance with individual state laws. These restrictions may make it difficult or impossible to sell shares in those states.

Transfers of our common stock may be restricted under the securities or securities regulations laws promulgated by various states and foreign jurisdictions, commonly referred to as "blue sky" laws. Absent compliance with such individual state laws, our common stock may not be traded in such jurisdictions. Because the securities held by many of our stockholders have not been registered for resale under the blue sky laws of any state, the holders of such shares and persons who desire to purchase them should be aware that there may be significant state blue sky law restrictions upon the ability of investors to sell the securities and of purchasers to purchase the securities. These restrictions may prohibit the secondary trading of our common stock. Investors should consider the secondary market for our securities to be a limited one.

We are dependent on key personnel and we are default under Employment and Consulting Agreements

Our success depends to a significant degree upon the continued contributions of key management and other personnel, some of whom could be difficult to replace. We do not maintain key man life insurance covering our officers except for Marco Hegyi, our President. We are in default under the Employment Agreement with Mr. Hegyi and the Consulting Agreement with Mr. Scott.

Our success will depend on the performance of our officers and key management and other personnel, our ability to retain and motivate our officers, our ability to integrate new officers and key management and other personnel into our operations, and the ability of all personnel to work together effectively as a team. Our failure to retain and recruit officers and other key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We have limited insurance.

We have no directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and limited commercial liability insurance policies. Any significant claims would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to our Common Stock

CANX, Logic Works and China West and TCA could have significant influence over matters submitted to stockholders for approval.

CANX, Logic Works and China West

As of December 31, 2015, CANX, Logic Works and China West in the aggregate hold shares representing approximately 53.9% of our common stock on a fully-converted basis and could be considered a control group for purposes of SEC rules. However, their agreements limit their ownership to 4.99% individually and each of the parties disclaims its status as a control group or a beneficial owner due to the fact that their beneficial ownership is limited to 4.99% per their agreements. Beneficial ownership includes shares over which an individual or entity has investment or voting power and includes shares that could be issued upon the exercise of options and warrants within 60 days after the date of determination. If these persons were to choose to act together, they would be able to significantly influence all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, as well as our officers, directors, management and affairs. For example, these persons, if they choose to act together, could significantly influence the election of directors and approval of any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. This concentration of voting power could delay or prevent an acquisition of us on terms that other stockholders may desire.

TCA

On October 27, 2015, we entered into an Amended and Restated Securities Purchase Agreement and related agreements with TCA Global Credit Master Fund LP whereby we agreed to sell, and TCA agreed to purchase $350,000 of senior secured convertible, redeemable debentures. We previously entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of April 30, 2015 and effective as of July 9, 2015 to purchase up to $3,000,000 in Debentures. As of October 27, 2015, we sold $1,050,000 in Debentures to TCA and up to $1,950,000 in Debentures remains for sale by us. The closing of the transaction occurred on October 27, 2015. In addition, TCA has advanced us an additional $100,000 for a total of $1,150.000. In addition, on October 21, 2015 we issued 150,000 Series B Preferred Stock at a stated value equal to $10.00 per share to TCA that is convertible into our common stock. On October 21, 2015, we also issued 51 shares of Series C Preferred Stock at $0.0001 par value per share to TCA that is not convertible into our common stock. In the event of a default under the Amended and Restated TCA Transaction Documents, TCA can exercise voting control over our common stock with their Series C Preferred Stock voting rights

TCA is able to significantly influence all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, as well as our officers, directors, management and affairs. For example, these persons, if they choose to act together, could significantly influence the election of directors and approval of any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. This concentration of voting power could delay or prevent an acquisition of us on terms that other stockholders may desire.

Trading in our stock is limited by the lack of market makers and the SEC’s penny stock regulations.

On April 10, 2014, as a result of the SEC suspension in the trading of our securities, we lost all market makers and traded on the grey market of OTCBB. Until we complied with FINRA Rule 15c2-11, we traded on the grey market, which has limited quotations and marketability of securities. Holders of our common stock found it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of, our common stock, and the market value of our common stock declined.

Our stock is categorized as a penny stock The SEC has adopted Rule 15g-9 which generally defines "penny stock" to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than US$ 5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than US$ 5.00 per share, subject to certain exclusions (e.g., net tangible assets in excess of $2,000,000 or average revenue of at least $6,000,000 for the last three years). The penny stock rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC, which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction. Finally, broker-dealers may not handle penny stocks under $0.10 per share.

These disclosure requirements reduce the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules would affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities if we become subject to them in the future. The penny stock rules also could discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock to future investors, resulting in limited ability for investors to sell their shares.

FINRA sales practice requirements may also limit a shareholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.

The market price of our common stock may be volatile.

The market price of our common stock has been and is likely in the future to be volatile. Our common stock price may fluctuate in response to factors such as:

●	Halting of trading by the SEC or FINRA.

●	Announcements by us regarding liquidity, legal proceedings, significant acquisitions, equity investments and divestitures, strategic relationships, addition or loss of significant customers and contracts, capital expenditure commitments, loan, note payable and agreement defaults, loss of our subsidiaries and impairment of assets,

●	Issuance of convertible or equity securities for general or merger and acquisition purposes,

●	Issuance or repayment of debt, accounts payable or convertible debt for general or merger and acquisition purposes,

●	Sale of a significant number of shares of our common stock by shareholders,

●	General market and economic conditions,

●	Quarterly variations in our operating results,

●	Investor relation activities,

●	Announcements of technological innovations,

●	New product introductions by us or our competitors,

●	Competitive activities, and

●	Additions or departures of key personnel.

These broad market and industry factors may have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance. These factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and/or results of operations.

The sale of a significant number of our shares of common stock could depress the price of our common stock.

Sales or issuances of a large number of shares of common stock in the public market or the perception that sales may occur could cause the market price of our common stock to decline. As of December 31, 2015, there were approximately 891.1 million shares of our common stock issued and outstanding. In addition, as of December 31, 2015, there are also (i) stock option grants outstanding for the purchase of 29.0 million common shares at a $0.028 average strike price; (ii) warrants for the purchase of 565.0 million common shares at a $0.032 average exercise price; (iii) 243.6 million shares related to convertible debt that can be converted at 0.007 per share; (iv) 6.0 million shares that may be issued to a former executive related to a severance agreement; and (v) 15 million shares recorded as contingently redeemable common stock. We issued $2 million in common stock or 115,141,048 shares on April 6, 2016 pursuant to the settlement of the Consolidated Class Action and Derivative Action lawsuits alleging violations of federal securities laws that were filed against the Company in United States District Court, Central District of California. In addition, we have an unknown number of common shares to be issued under the TCA financing agreements. If all stock option grant, warrant and contingent shares are issued, approximately 1.883 billion of our currently authorized 3 billion shares of common stock will be issued and outstanding.

These stock option grant, warrant and contingent shares could result in further dilution to common stock holders and may affect the market price of the common stock.

Significant shares of common stock are held by our principal shareholders, other Company insiders and other large shareholders. As affiliates as defined under Rule 144 of the Securities Act or Rule 144 of the Company, our principal shareholders, other Company insiders and other large shareholders may only sell their shares of common stock in the public market pursuant to an effective registration statement or in compliance with Rule 144.

Some of the present shareholders have acquired shares at prices as low as $0.007 per share, whereas other shareholders have purchased their shares at prices ranging from $0.007 to $0.78 per share.

These stock option grant, warrant and contingent shares could result in further dilution to common stock holders and may affect the market price of the common stock.

Some of our convertible debentures may require adjustment in the conversion price.

Our 6% Senior Secured Convertible Notes Payable, our 7% Convertible Notes Payable and our 6% Convertible Secured Convertible Note and Secured Credit Facility dated June 25, 2014 with Logic Works may require an adjustment in the conversion price if we issue common stock, warrants or equity below the price that is reflected in the convertible notes payable. Any adjustment in the conversion price also could affect the market price of the common stock.

We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our capital stock in the foreseeable future.

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our capital stock. We currently intend to retain all of our future earnings, if any, to finance the growth and development of our business, and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our capital stock in the foreseeable future. In addition, the terms of any future debt agreements may preclude us from paying dividends. As a result, capital appreciation, if any, of our common stock will be your sole source of gain for the foreseeable future.

Anti-takeover provisions may limit the ability of another party to acquire our company, which could cause our stock price to decline.

Our certificate of incorporation, as amended, our bylaws and Delaware law contain provisions that could discourage, delay or prevent a third party from acquiring our company, even if doing so may be beneficial to our stockholders. In addition, these provisions could limit the price investors would be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock.

We may issue preferred stock that could have rights that are preferential to the rights of common stock that could discourage potentially beneficially transactions to our common shareholders.

An issuance of additional shares of preferred stock could result in a class of outstanding securities that would have preferences with respect to voting rights and dividends and in liquidation over our common stock and could, upon conversion or otherwise, have all of the rights of our common stock. Our Board of Directors' authority to issue preferred stock could discourage potential takeover attempts or could delay or prevent a change in control through merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise by making these attempts more difficult or costly to achieve. The issuance of preferred stock could impair the voting, dividend and liquidation rights of common stockholders without their approval.

If the company were to dissolve or wind-up, holders of our common stock may not receive a liquidation preference.

If we were to wind-up or dissolve the Company and liquidate and distribute our assets, our shareholders would share ratably in our assets only after we satisfy any amounts we owe to our creditors. If our liquidation or dissolution were attributable to our inability to profitably operate our business, then it is likely that we would have material liabilities at the time of liquidation or dissolution. Accordingly, we cannot give you any assurance that sufficient assets will remain available after the payment of our creditors to enable you to receive any liquidation distribution with respect to any shares you may hold.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are involved in the disputes and legal proceedings described below. In addition, as a public company, we are also potentially susceptible to litigation, such as claims asserting violations of securities laws. Any such claims, with or without merit, if not resolved, could be time-consuming and result in costly litigation.

Class Actions Alleging Violations of Federal Securities Laws

Beginning on April 18, 2014, three class action lawsuits alleging violations of federal securities laws were filed against us in United States District Court, Central District of California (the “Court”). At a hearing held on July 21, 2014, the three class action lawsuits were consolidated into one case with Lawrence Rosen as the lead plaintiff (the “Consolidated Class Action,” styled Romero et al. vs. GrowLife et al.). On May 15, 2014 and August 4, 2014, respectively two shareholder derivative lawsuits were filed against us with the Court (the “Derivative Actions”). On October 20, 2014, AmTrust North America, our insurer, filed a lawsuit contesting insurance coverage on the above legal proceedings. On January 20, 2015, the Court ordered all of the above actions stayed pending completion of mediation of the dispute.

The parties then worked diligently to finalize settlement documentation on the above actions. On April 27, 2015, the Court preliminarily approved the proposed settlement of the Consolidated Class Action.

On June 1, 2015, the Court preliminarily approved the proposed settlement of the Derivative Actions pursuant to a proposed stipulated settlement agreement.

On August 3, 2015, the Court entered a Final Order and Judgment resolving the Consolidated Class Action litigation in its entirety. The Consolidated Class Action was thereby dismissed in its entirety with prejudice and without costs.

On August 10, 2015, pursuant to a settlement by and between the Company and AmTrust North America, AmTrust’s lawsuit contesting insurance coverage of the Consolidated Class Action and Derivative Actions was dismissed in its entirety with prejudice pursuant to a Stipulation for Dismissal of Entire Action with Prejudice executed by and between AmTrust and the Company.

On August 17, 2015, the Court entered a Final Order and Judgment resolving the Derivative Actions in their entirety. The Derivative Actions were thereby dismissed in their entirety with prejudice.

As a result of the foregoing, all litigation discussed herein is resolved in full at this time.

We issued $2 million in common stock or 115,141,048 shares of our common stock on April 6, 2016 pursuant to the settlement of the Consolidated Class Action and Derivative Action lawsuits alleging violations of federal securities laws that were filed against the Company in United States District Court, Central District of California. We accrued $2,000,000 as loss on Class Action lawsuits and contingent liabilities during the year ending December 31, 2015.

Sales and Payroll Tax Liabilities

As of December 31, 2015, we owe approximately $102,000 in sales tax and $20,000 in payroll taxes. We are currently negotiating or operating under payment plans on these liabilities.

Other Legal Proceedings

We are in default on our Portland, Maine, Boulder, Colorado and Plaistow, New Hampshire store leases for non-payment of the lease payments and are negotiating with the landlords.

PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

General

The following description of our capital stock and provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws are summaries and are qualified by reference to our articles of incorporation and the bylaws. We have filed copies of these documents with the SEC as exhibits to our Form 10-K.

Authorized Capital Stock

We have voting common stock of 3,000,000,000 shares at $0.0001 par value and 10,000,000 shares of non-voting preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 as authorized by the shareholders.

In addition, on October 21, 2015 we issued 150,000 Series B Preferred Stock at a stated value equal to $10.00 per share and convertible into our common stock. On October 21, 2015, we also issued 51 shares of Series C Preferred Stock at $0.0001 par value per share that have certain voting rights but are not convertible into our common stock

Capital Stock Issued and Outstanding

As of December 31, 2015, we have issued and outstanding securities on a fully diluted basis:

• 891,116,496 shares of common stock;

• Stock option grants for the purchase of 29,020,000 shares of common stock at average exercise price of $0.028;

• Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 565,000,000 shares of common stock with expiration dates between November 2018 and July 2019 at an exercise price of $0.032 per share;

• 243,631,571 shares of common stock to be issued for the conversion of Convertible Notes Payables with expiration dates between September 2015 and June 2016 at a conversion price of $0.007 per share;

• 6,000,000 shares of common stock that may be issued to a former executive related to a severance agreement;

• 15,000,000 shares of common stock recorded as contingently redeemable common stock; and

• We issued $2 million in common stock or 115,141,048 shares of our common stock on April 6, 2016 pursuant to the settlement of the Consolidated Class Action and Derivative Action lawsuits alleging violations of federal securities laws that were filed against us in United States District Court, Central District of California.

Voting Common Stock

Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders and do not have cumulative voting rights. An election of directors by our stockholders shall be determined by a plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders entitled to vote on the election. On all other matters, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the stock present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote is required for approval, unless otherwise provided in our articles of incorporation, bylaws or applicable law. Holders of common stock are entitled to receive proportionately any dividends as may be declared by our board of directors, subject to any preferential dividend rights of outstanding preferred stock.

In the event of our liquidation or dissolution, the holders of common stock are entitled to receive proportionately all assets available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of all debts and other liabilities and subject to the prior rights of any outstanding preferred stock. Holders of common stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or conversion rights. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of common stock are subject to and may be adversely affected by the rights of the holders of shares of any series of preferred stock that we may designate and issue in the future.

Non-Voting Preferred Stock

Under the terms of our articles of incorporation, our board of directors is authorized to issue shares of non-voting preferred stock in one or more series without stockholder approval. Our board of directors has the discretion to determine the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, dividend rights, conversion rights, redemption privileges and liquidation preferences, of each series of non-voting preferred stock.

The purpose of authorizing our board of directors to issue non-voting preferred stock and determine its rights and preferences is to eliminate delays associated with a stockholder vote on specific issuances. The issuance of non-voting preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible acquisitions, future financings and other corporate purposes, could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or could discourage a third party from seeking to acquire, a majority of our outstanding voting stock. Other than the Series B and C Preferred Stock discussed below, there are no shares of non-voting preferred stock presently outstanding and we have no present plans to issue any shares of preferred stock.

Series B Preferred Stock Designation

In connection with the Amended and Restated Securities Purchase Agreement, the Board of Directors, on October 21, 2015, approved the authorization of a Series B Preferred Stock as provided in our Certificate of Incorporation, as amended.

The Series B Preferred Stock has authorized 150,000 shares with a stated value equal to $10.00 per share. Dividends payable to other classes of stock are restricted until repayment of the aggregate value of Series B Preferred Stock. Upon our liquidation or dissolution, Series B Preferred Stock has no priority or preference with respect to distributions of any assets by us. The Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock by dividing the stated value of the shares being converted by 100% of the average of the five lowest closing bid prices for the common stock during the ten consecutive trading days immediately preceding the conversion date as quoted by Bloomberg, LP.

TCA was issued 150,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock. However, in no event will Purchaser be entitled to hold in excess of 4.99% of the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company.

Series C Preferred Stock Designation

In connection with the Amended and Restated Securities Purchase Agreement, the Board of Directors, on October 21, 2015, approved the authorization of a Series C Preferred Stock as provided in our Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and the issuance of 51 shares of Series C Preferred Stock. These shares only have voting rights in the event of a default by us under the Amended and Restated Transaction Documents. The Series C Preferred Stock is cancelled with the repayment of the TCA debt.

The Series C Preferred Stock Designation authorizes 51 shares of Series C Preferred Stock. Series C Preferred Stock is not entitled to dividend or liquidation rights and is not convertible into our common stock.

In the event of a default under the Amended and Restated Transaction Documents, each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall have voting votes equal to 0.019607 multiplied by the total issued and outstanding common stock and preferred stock eligible to vote divided by .49 minus the numerator. For example, if the total issued and outstanding common stock eligible to vote is 5,000,000, the voting rights of one share of Series C Preferred Stock shall be equal to 102,036 (e.g. ((0.019607 x 5,000,000/0.49) – (0.019607 x 5,000,000) = 102,036). In the event of a default under the Amended and Restated TCA Transaction Documents, TCA can exercise voting control over our common stock.

Warrants to Purchase Common Stock

As of December 31, 2015, warrants to purchase an aggregate of 565,000,000 shares of common stock with expiration dates between November 2018 and July 2019 at an average exercise price of $0.032 per share are outstanding.

Options to Purchase Common Stock

In fiscal year 2011, we authorized a Stock Incentive Plan whereby a maximum of 18,870,184 shares of the Company’s common stock could be granted in the form of Non-Qualified Stock Options, Incentive Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, and Other Stock-Based Awards. On April 18, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors voted to increase to 35,000,000 the maximum allowable shares of the Company’s common stock allocated to the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan. After the exercise of stock option grants, we have 27,522,626 shares available for issuance. We have outstanding unexercised stock option grants totaling 29,020,000 shares at an average exercise price of $0.028 per share as of December 31, 2015. All grants are considered non-qualified until the increase is approved by the shareholders.

Dividend Policy

We have not previously paid any cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate or contemplate paying dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to use all of our available funds to develop our business. We can give no assurances that we will ever have excess funds available to pay dividends.

Change in Control Provisions

Our articles of incorporation and by-laws provide for a maximum of nine directors, and the size of the Board cannot be increased by more than three directors in any calendar year. There is no provision for classification or staggered terms for the members of the Board of Directors.

Our articles of incorporation also provide that except to the extent the provisions of Delaware General Corporation Law require a greater voting requirement, any action, including the amendment of the Company’s articles or bylaws, the approval of a plan of merger or share exchange, the sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s property other than in the usual and regular course of business, shall be authorized if approved by a simple majority of stockholders, and if a separate voting group is required or entitled to vote thereon, by a simple majority of all the votes entitled to be cast by that voting group.

Our bylaws provide that only the Chief Executive Officer or a majority of the Board of Directors may call a special meeting. The bylaws do not permit the stockholders of the Company to call a special meeting of the stockholders for any purpose.

Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws Provisions

Our articles of incorporation, as amended, and bylaws contain provisions that could have the effect of discouraging potential acquisition proposals or tender offers or delaying or preventing a change in control, including changes a stockholder might consider favorable. In particular, our articles of incorporation and bylaws among other things:

• permit our board of directors to alter our bylaws without stockholder approval; and

• provide that vacancies on our board of directors may be filled by a majority of directors in office, although less than a quorum.

Such provisions may have the effect of discouraging a third party from acquiring us, even if doing so would be beneficial to our stockholders. These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of our board of directors and in the policies formulated by them, and to discourage some types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened change in control of our company. These provisions are designed to reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited acquisition proposal and to discourage some tactics that may be used in proxy fights. We believe that the benefits of increased protection of our potential ability to negotiate with the proponent of an unfriendly or unsolicited proposal to acquire or restructure our company outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging such proposals because, among other things, negotiation of such proposals could result in an improvement of their terms.

However, these provisions could have the effect of discouraging others from making tender offers for our shares that could result from actual or rumored takeover attempts. These provisions also may have the effect of preventing changes in our management.

Market Price of and Dividends on Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters

Our common stock traded on the grey market under the symbol “PHOT” through February 17, 2016. While the company was without a market maker, its stock does trade directly between buyers and sellers on the grey sheets. The quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail markup, markdown or commission, and may not represent actual transactions.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Resumed Trading of our Common Stock

On February 18, 2016, our common stock resumed unsolicited quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board after receiving clearance from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) on our Form 15c2-11. The Company is currently taking the appropriate steps to uplist to the OTCQB Exchange and resume priced quotations with market makers as soon as it is able.

Overcoming Company Challenges

We grew through a series of acquisitions in 2012 and 2013 leading to seven retail stores. In 2013 we expected to grow through the following three key initiatives (i) expanding to 30 retail stores at an expected average annual revenue of $1.25 million with 12 stores in 2014 resulting in sales of $15 million; (ii) educating the investment community of the demand for indoor growing equipment from the cannabis industry; and (iii) engaging a joint venture investor willing to provide financial resources for acquisitions and strategic investments. These three initiatives were expected to help position us as the leading supplier and participating investor to the emerging cannabis industry and were therefore announced and allocated resources with those goals in mind.

Starting in June 2014, we focused on cost reductions with minimal revenue loss as our focus. The primary reduction in operating costs came from (i) streamlining non-profitable personnel, lowering expenses by replacing the Woodland Hills, California headquarters with that of Seattle, Washington that serves more people at a lower cost; (ii) closing the unprofitable Peabody, Massachusetts, Woodland Hills, California and Plaistow, New Hampshire stores and Boulder, Colorado; (iii) relocating the Greners.com e-commerce operation from Santa Rosa, California to the Vail, Colorado store until a new Denver facility is set up; (iv) reducing full-time employees from 46 to 8 as of December 31, 2015; and (v) closing the Phototron subsidiary in California. While transition costs were paid out, the repurposing of company resources is expected to reduce our operating expenses and allows for greater market reach and efficiencies.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2015 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014

Revenue

Net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2015 decreased $5,038,000 to $3,500,000 as compared to $8,538,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014. The decrease was due to (i) lower revenue from the retail stores acquired by GrowLife Hydroponics’ acquisition of Rocky Mountain Hydroponics and Evergreen Garden Center on June 7, 2013; (ii) closure of the unprofitable Peabody, Massachusetts, Woodland Hills, California and Plaistow, New Hampshire stores; (iii) relocation of the Greners eCommerce operation from Santa Rosa, California to the Boulder, Colorado store until a new Denver facility is set up; (iv) reducing full-time employees from 46 to 8 as of December 31, 2015; and (v) closing the Phototron subsidiary in California.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of sales for the year ended December 31, 2015 decreased $4,192,000 to $2,981,000 as compared to $7,173,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014. The decrease was due to (i) lower revenue from the retail stores acquired by GrowLife Hydroponics’ acquisition of Rocky Mountain Hydroponics and Evergreen Garden Center on June 7, 2013; (ii) closure of the unprofitable Peabody, Massachusetts, Woodland Hills, California and Plaistow, New Hampshire stores; (iii) relocation of the Greners eCommerce operation from Santa Rosa, California to the Boulder, Colorado store until a new Denver facility is set up; and (iv) closing the Phototron subsidiary in California.

Gross profit was $519,000 for the year ended December 31, 2015 as compared to $1,365,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014. The gross margin was 14.8% for the year ended December 31, 2015 as compared to 16.0% for the year ended December 31, 2014. The gross profit percentage was due to selling our products at a lower price during the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 to reduce inventory to be shipped from the closed stores to the remaining stores and the direct channel.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2015 decreased $5,167,000 to $2,684,000 as compared to $7,851,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014. The decrease was due to (i) reduced legal expense of $455,000; (ii) reduced wages of $1,906,000; (iii) reduced rent of $389,000; (iv) reduced sales and marketing of $210,000; (v) and reduced common stock issued for services expenses of $2,510,000; offset by (vi) increased other general expenses of $303,000. As part of the general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2015, we recorded public relation expenses of $14,000 and we did not record any investor relation or business development expenses.

The decrease related to (i) closure of the unprofitable Peabody, Massachusetts, Woodland Hills, California and Plaistow, New Hampshire stores; (ii) relocation of the Greners eCommerce operation from Santa Rosa, California to the Boulder, Colorado store until a new Denver facility is set up; (iii) reducing full-time employees from 46 to 8 as of December 31, 2015; and (iv) closing the Phototron subsidiary in California.

The change in derivative liability is the non-cash change in the fair value and relates to our derivative instruments. The non-cash interest related to the amortization of the debt discount associated with our convertible notes, accrued interest expense related to our notes payable. The other expense is primarily related to the TCA funding. We accrued $2,081,000 as loss on class action lawsuits and contingent liabilities as of December 31, 2015.

Other expense for the year ended December 31, 2014 included loss on change – derivative liability warrants of $16,253,000 and interest expense of $64,074,000, offset by the realized gain on the sale of investment of $187,000. The loss on change- derivative liability is the non-cash change in the fair value and relates to our derivative instruments. The non-cash interest related to the amortization of the debt discount associated with our convertible notes, accrued interest expense related to our notes payable and the issuance of a 100,000,000 share warrant to CANX in February 7, 2014 and a 300,000,000 share warrant to CANX on July 10, 2014.

Net (Loss)

Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $5,689,000 as compared to a net loss of $86,626,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014 for the reasons discussed above.

Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2015 included non-cash expense of $3,759,000, including (i) depreciation and amortization of $120,000; (ii) stock based compensation of $176,000 related to stock option grants; (iii) common stock issued for services of $211,000; (iv) interest expense of $1,120,000, (v) loss on class action lawsuit settlements of $2,000,000; (vi) preferred shares issued for services of $300,000; (vii) issuance of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock of $1,500,000; and (viii) other of $176,000, offset by (ix) change in derivative liability of $724,000.

We expect losses to continue as we implement our business plan.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We had cash of $60,000 and a net working capital deficit of approximately $3,357,000 (excluding the derivative liability- warrants of $1,377,000 as of December 31, 2015. We expect losses to continue as we grow our business. Our cash used in operations for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $1,376,000 and $2,123,000, respectively.

Shortly after the SEC suspended trading of our securities on April 10, 2014, some of our primary suppliers rescinded our credit terms and required us to pay cash for our product purchases and pay down our outstanding balance with these suppliers.

We will need to obtain additional financing in the future. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure funding, or that if such funding is available, the terms or conditions would be acceptable to us. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may need to restructure our operations, divest all or a portion of our business or file for bankruptcy.

We have financed our operations through the issuance of convertible debentures and the sale of common stock.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements (as that term is defined in Item 303 of Regulation S-K) that are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The application of GAAP involves the exercise of varying degrees of judgment. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe that of our significant accounting policies (see summary of significant accounting policies more fully described in Note 3 to Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015), the following policies involve a higher degree of judgment and/or complexity:

Cash and Cash Equivalents - We classify highly liquid temporary investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased as cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. Balances at US banks are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risk for cash on deposit.

Accounts Receivable and Revenue - Revenue is recognized on the sale of a product when the product is shipped, which is when the risk of loss transfers to our customers, the fee is fixed and determinable, and collection of the sale is reasonably assured. A product is not shipped without an order from the customer and the completion of credit acceptance procedures. The majority of our sales are cash or credit card; however, we occasionally extend terms to our customers. Accounts receivable are reviewed periodically for collectability.

Inventories - Inventories are recorded on a first in first out basis. Inventory consists of raw materials, purchased finished goods and components held for resale. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market. The reserve for inventory was $20,000 and $40,215 at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets - We evaluate the carrying value of goodwill, intangible assets, and long-lived assets during the fourth quarter of each year and between annual evaluations if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to (1) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in business climate, (2) unanticipated competition, (3) an adverse action or assessment by a regulator, (4) continued losses from operations, (5) continued negative cash flows from operations, and (6) the suspension of trading of the Company’s securities. When evaluating whether goodwill is impaired, we compare the fair value of the reporting unit to which the goodwill is assigned to the reporting unit’s carrying amount, including goodwill. The fair value of the reporting unit is estimated using a combination of the income, or discounted cash flows, approach and the market approach, which utilizes comparable companies’ data. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then the amount of the impairment loss must be measured. The impairment loss would be calculated by comparing the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill to its carrying amount. In calculating the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the other assets and liabilities of that unit based on their fair values. The excess of the fair value of a reporting unit over the amount assigned to its other assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill.

We amortize the cost of other intangible assets over their estimated useful lives, which range up to ten years, unless such lives are deemed indefinite. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year for impairment, or more often if indicators warrant.

Long Lived Assets – We reviews our long-lived assets for impairment annually or when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets under certain circumstances are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value. Assets to be disposed of and assets not expected to provide any future service potential to the Company are recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value (less the projected cost associated with selling the asset). To the extent carrying values exceed fair values, an impairment loss is recognized in operating results.

Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments - ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 - Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, investment in a related party, accounts payables, accrued expenses, due to related party, notes payable, and convertible notes approximates their fair values due to their short-term maturities.

Derivative financial instruments -We evaluate all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a weighted average Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within twelve months of the balance sheet date.

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, we had outstanding 7% convertible notes for $500,000 that we determined were a derivative liability due to the “reset” clause associated with the note’s conversion price. We valued the derivative liability of these notes at $105,515 and $1,278,878, respectively, using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model.

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, we had outstanding 6% convertible notes for $350,000 that we determined were a derivative liability due to the “reset” clause associated with the note’s conversion price. We valued the derivative liability of these notes at $54,377 and $822,037, respectively using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model.

As of December 31, 2015, we had outstanding 18% convertible notes for $1,150,000 that we determined were a derivative liability due to the “reset” clause associated with the note’s conversion price. We valued the derivative liability of these notes at $1,217,283 using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model.

Stock Based Compensation – We have share-based compensation plans under which employees, consultants, suppliers and directors may be granted restricted stock, as well as options and warrants to purchase shares of our common stock at the fair market value at the time of grant. Stock-based compensation cost to employees is measured by us at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, over the requisite service period under ASC 718. For options issued to employees, we recognize stock compensation costs utilizing the fair value methodology over the related period of benefit. Grants of stock to non-employees and other parties are accounted for in accordance with the ASC 505.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item. Nevertheless, we have no investments in any market risk sensitive instruments either held for trading purposes or entered into for other than trading purposes.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

Reference is made to our consolidated financial statements beginning on page F-1 of this report.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

Not applicable.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures also include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officers concluded as of December 31, 2015 that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting discussed immediately below.

Identified Material Weakness

A material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected.

Management identified the following material weakness during its assessment of internal controls over financial reporting:

Audit Committee:

On June 3, 2014, we formed an Audit Committee and appointed an audit committee financial expert as defined by SEC and as adopted under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Prior to this, we did not have an Audit Committee to oversee financial reporting and used external service providers to ensure compliance with the SEC requirements. The current Audit Committee has two management directors.

Other Weaknesses:

Our information systems lack sufficient controls limiting access to key applications and data.

Our inventory system lacked standardized product descriptions and effective controls to ensure the accuracy, valuation, and timeliness of the financial accounting process around inventory, including a lack of accuracy and basis for valuation resulting in adjustments to the amount of cost of revenues and the carrying amount of inventory.

b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended December 31, 2015, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during this fiscal quarter that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to have a materially affect, on our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

There were no disclosures of any information required to be filed on Form 8-K during the three months ended December 31, 2015 that were not filed.

CANX, Logic Works & China West Beneficial Ownership

On July 10, 2014, we entered into a Waiver and Modification Agreement, Amended and Restated Joint Venture Agreement, Secured Credit Facility and Secured Convertible Note with CANX, and Logic Works LLC, a lender and shareholder of the Company.

Previously, we entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with CANX USA LLC, a Nevada limited liability company. Under the terms of the Joint Venture Agreement, the Company and CANX formed Organic Growth International, LLC (“OGI”), a Nevada limited liability company, for the purpose of expanding our operations in its current retail hydroponic businesses and in other synergistic business verticals and facilitating additional funding for commercially financeable transactions of up to $40,000,000. In connection with the closing of the Agreement, CANX agreed to provide a commitment for funding in the amount of $1,300,000 for a GrowLife Infrastructure Funding Technology program transaction and provided additional funding under a 7% Convertible Note instrument for $1,000,000, including $500,000 each from Logic Works and China West III Investments LLC, entities that are unaffiliated with CANX and operate as separate legal entities. We initially owned a non-dilutive forty-five percent (45%) share of OGI and the Company may acquire a controlling share of OGI as provided in the Joint Venture Agreement. In accordance with the Joint Venture Agreement, the Company and CANX entered into a Warrant Agreement whereby we delivered to CANX a warrant to purchase 140,000,000 shares of the Company common stock at a maximum strike price of $0.033 per share. Also in accordance with the Joint Venture Agreement, we issued an additional warrant to purchase 100,000,000 shares of our common stock at a maximum strike price of $0.033 per share on February 7, 2014.

In connection with the issuance of the above warrants to CANX in November 2013 and early 2014, we drafted certain beneficial ownership forms, including a Schedule 13D, for CANX’s review and filing in connection with their acquisition of a potential control position of the Company due to their holdings of the warrants which amounted to a significant derivative security position in the Company. CANX refused to file the beneficial ownership filings at that time contending that they had not received the warrants provide for under the Joint Venture Agreement from us and therefore were not beneficial owners of said securities and thus not obligated to file said forms. The ultimate responsibility for filing such beneficial ownership forms lies with the reporting person which, in this case, was CANX.

On July 10, 2014, as discussed above, CANX and the Company entered into amended agreement which provided, among other things, the re-issuance of warrants with 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation provisions. The 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation prevented CANX from acting as a control person under the terms of the amended agreements and CANX disclaims its status as a control person or a beneficial owner due to the 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation.

Accordingly, CANX does not consider itself a beneficial owner due to its position that it has a 4.99% ownership limit. CANX further disclaims it has acted as a control group with Logic Works and/or China West in connection with the above transactions. Therefore, CANX has not made any Section 16(a) filings. Likewise, at this time, we do not consider CANX a control party under SEC Rules.

Additionally, Logic Works and China West, parties unaffiliated with CANX that received certain convertible notes in the above transactions to which CANX was a party, do not consider themselves a control group because both Logic Works and China West have a 4.99% ownership limit, are not affiliated with CANX or each other and disclaim their status as a potential control group with CANX. Therefore, Logic Works and China West have not made any Section 16(a) filings. China West has since converted its $500,000 Note into 20,640,548 shares of our common stock on June 4, 2014 which is less than 2.5% of our issued and outstanding common stock.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Overview of Compensation Program

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the material elements of compensation awarded to, earned by or paid to each of our executive officers named in the Compensation Table on page __ under “Remuneration of Executive Officers” (the “Named Executive Officers”) who served during the year ended December 31, 2015. This compensation discussion primarily focuses on the information contained in the following tables and related footnotes and narrative for the last completed fiscal year. We also describe compensation actions taken after the last completed fiscal year to the extent that it enhances the understanding of our executive compensation disclosure. The principles and guidelines discussed herein would also apply to any additional executive officers that the Company may hire in the future.

The Compensation Committee of the Board has responsibility for overseeing, reviewing and approving executive compensation and benefit programs in accordance with the Compensation Committee’s charter. The member of the Compensation Committee is Michael E. Fasci. We expect to appoint two independent Directors to serve on the Compensation Committee during 2016.

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

The major compensation objectives for the Company’s executive officers are as follows:


	•	to attract and retain highly qualified individuals capable of making significant contributions to our long-term success;

	•	to motivate and reward named executive officers whose knowledge, skills, and performance are critical to our success;

	•	to closely align the interests of our named executive officers and other key employees with those of its shareholders; and

	•	to utilize incentive based compensation to reinforce performance objectives and reward superior performance.

Role of Chief Executive Officer in Compensation Decisions

The Board approves all compensation for the chief executive officer. The Compensation Committee makes recommendations on the compensation for the chief executive officer and approves all compensation decisions, including equity awards, for our executive officers. Our chief executive officer makes recommendations regarding the base salary and non-equity compensation of other executive officers that are approved by the Compensation Committee in its discretion.

Setting Executive Compensation

The Compensation Committee believes that compensation for the Company’s executive officers must be managed to what we can afford and in a way that allows for us to meet our goals for overall performance. During 2015 and 2014, the Compensation Committee and the Board compensated its Chief Executive Officers, President and Chief Financial Officer at the salaries indicated in the compensation table. This compensation reflected the financial condition of the Company. The Compensation Committee does not use a peer group of publicly-traded and privately-held companies in structuring the compensation packages.

Executive Compensation Components for the Year Ended December 31, 2015

The Compensation Committee did not use a formula for allocating compensation among the elements of total compensation during the year that ended December 31, 2015. The Compensation Committee believes that in order to attract and retain highly effective people it must maintain a flexible compensation structure. For the year that ended December 31, 2015, the principal components of compensation for named executive officers were base salary.

Base Salary

Base salary is intended to ensure that our employees are fairly and equitably compensated. Generally, base salary is used to appropriately recognize and reward the experience and skills that employees bring to the Company and provides motivation for career development and enhancement. Base salary ensures that all employees continue to receive a basic level of compensation that reflects any acquired skills which are competently demonstrated and are consistently used at work.

Base salaries for the Company’s named executive officers are initially established based on their prior experience, the scope of their responsibilities and the applicable competitive market compensation paid by other companies for similar positions. Mr. Hegyi and Mr. Scott were compensated as described above based on the financial condition of the Company.

Performance-Based Incentive Compensation

The Compensation Committee believes incentive compensation reinforces performance objectives, rewards superior performance and is consistent with the enhancement of stockholder value. All of the Company’s Named Executive Officers are eligible to receive performance-based incentive compensation. The Compensation Committee did not recommend or approve payment of any performance-based incentive compensation to the Named Executive Officers during the year ended December 31, 2015 based on our financial condition.

Ownership Guidelines

The Compensation Committee does not require our executive officers to hold a minimum number of our shares. However, to directly align the interests of executive officers with the interests of the stockholders, the Compensation Committee encourages each executive officer to maintain an ownership interest in the Company.

Stock Option Program

Stock options are an integral part of our executive compensation program. They are intended to encourage ownership and retention of the Company’s common stock by named executive officers and employees, as well as non-employee members of the Board. Through stock options, the objective of aligning employees’ long-term interest with those of stockholders may be met by providing employees with the opportunity to build a meaningful stake in the Company.

The Stock Option Program assists us by:

- enhancing the link between the creation of stockholder value and long-term executive incentive compensation;

- providing an opportunity for increased equity ownership by executive officers; and

- maintaining competitive levels of total compensation.

Stock option award levels are determined by the Compensation Committee and vary among participants’ positions within the Company. Newly hired executive officers or promoted executive officers are generally awarded stock options, at the discretion of the Compensation Committee, at the next regularly scheduled Compensation Committee meeting on or following their hire or promotion date. In addition, such executives are eligible to receive additional stock options on a discretionary basis after performance criteria are achieved.

Options are awarded at the closing price of our common stock on the date of the grant or last trading day prior to the date of the grant. The Compensation Committee’s policy is not to grant options with an exercise price that is less than the closing price of our common stock on the grant date.

Generally, the majority of the options granted by the Compensation Committee vest quarterly over two to three years or annually over five years of the 5-10-year option term. Vesting and exercise rights cease upon termination of employment and/or service, except in the case of death (subject to a one year limitation), disability or retirement. Stock options vest immediately upon termination of employment without cause or an involuntary termination following a change of control. Prior to the exercise of an option, the holder has no rights as a stockholder with respect to the shares subject to such option, including voting rights and the right to receive dividends or dividend equivalents.

The Named Executive Officers received stock option grants and warrants during the year ended December 31, 2015 as outlined below.

Retirement and Other Benefits

We have no other retirement, savings, long-term stock award or other type of plans for the Named Executive Officers.

Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits

During the year ended December 31, 2014, we provided the Named Executive Officers with medical insurance. The Company paid $8,561 in life insurance for Mr. Hegyi. No other perquisites or other personal benefits were provided to Named Executive Officers. The committee expects to review the levels of perquisites and other personal benefits provided to Named Executive Officers annually.

Employment and consulting agreements are discussed below.

Tax and Accounting Implications

Deductibility of Executive Compensation

Subject to certain exceptions, Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") generally denies a deduction to any publicly held corporation for compensation paid to its chief executive officer and its three other highest paid executive officers (other than the principal financial officer) to the extent that any such individual's compensation exceeds $1 million. “Performance-based compensation” (as defined for purposes of Section 162(m)) is not taken into account for purposes of calculating the $1 million compensation limit, provided certain disclosure, shareholder approval and other requirements are met. We periodically review the potential consequences of Section 162(m) and may structure the performance-based portion of our executive compensation to comply with certain exceptions to Section 162(m). However, we may authorize compensation payments that do not comply with the exceptions to Section 162(m) when we believe that such payments are appropriate and in the best interests of the stockholders, after taking into consideration changing business conditions or the officer's performance

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

We account for stock-based payments including its Stock Option Program in accordance with the requirements of ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation.”

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

The Compensation Committee, sets and administers policies that govern the Company's executive compensation programs, and incentive and stock programs. The Compensation Committee of the Company has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis required by Item 402(b) of Regulation S-K with management and, based on such review and discussions, the Compensation Committee recommended to the Board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

We primarily use stock options grants to incentive compensation to attract and retain qualified candidates to serve on the Board. This compensation reflected the financial condition of the Company. In setting director compensation, we consider the significant amount of time that Directors expend in fulfilling their duties to the Company as well as the skill-level required by our members of the Board. During year ended December 31, 2015, Marco Hegyi and Mark E. Scott did not receive any compensation for their service as directors. The compensation disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table on page __ represents the total compensation.

Director Summary Compensation

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the ownership of our common stock as of December 31, 2015 by:

	•	each director and nominee for director;

	•	each person known by us to own beneficially 5% or more of our common stock;

	•	each officer named in the summary compensation table elsewhere in this report; and

	•	all directors and executive officers as a group.

The amounts and percentages of common stock beneficially owned are reported on the basis of regulations of the SEC governing the determination of beneficial ownership of securities. Under the rules of the SEC, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares voting power,” which includes the power to vote or to direct the voting of such security, or “investment power,” which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of which that person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Under these rules more than one person may be deemed a beneficial owner of the same securities and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which such person has no economic interest.

Unless otherwise indicated below, each beneficial owner named in the table has sole voting and sole investment power with respect to all shares beneficially owned, subject to community property laws where applicable. The address of each beneficial owner is 500 Union Street, Suite 810, Seattle, WA 98101 and the address of more than 5% of common stock is detailed below.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Agreement and Plan of Merger with SGT Merger Corporation

On March 21, 2012, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with SGT Merger Corporation, a Nevada corporation and the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, SG Technologies Corp, a Nevada corporation (“SGT”), Sterling C. Scott, and W-Net Fund I, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and current holder of the Company’s common stock. The transaction closed on April 5, 2012. At the Closing, (i) The Merger Corporation was merged with and into SGT; (ii) SGT became the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary; and (iii) all SGT shares of common stock were exchanged for shares of our common stock and shares of a new series of our preferred stock, which was designated Series A Preferred Stock. At the Closing, the Company issued to SGT’s former stockholders 157,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and 3,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in exchange for the 200 shares of SGT’s common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Merger. Sterling C. Scott was appointed to the then Company’s Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer.

After the Merger, former holders of SGT’s common stock owned in excess of 50% of our fully-diluted shares of common stock, and as a result of certain other factors, including that all members of our executive management are members of SGT’s management, SGT is deemed to be the acquiring company and the Company was deemed to be the legal acquirer for accounting purposes, and the Merger was accounted for as a reverse merger and a recapitalization in accordance with GAAP. The consolidated financial statements of GrowLife and its subsidiaries reflect the historical activity of SGT, and the historical stockholders’ equity of SGT has been retroactively restated for the equivalent number of shares received in the exchange.

Acquisition of Rocky Mountain Hydroponics, LLC and Evergreen Garden Center, LLC

On June 7, 2013, GrowLife Hydroponics completed the purchase of Rocky Mountain Hydroponics, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (“RMC”), and Evergreen Garden Center, LLC, a Maine limited liability company (“EGC”).

Amended and Restated Joint Venture Agreement

Secured Convertible Note and Secured Credit Facility

We entered into a Secured Convertible Note and Secured Credit Facility dated June 25, 2014 with Logic Works whereby Logic Works agreed to provide up to $500,000 in funding. Each funding requires approval in advance by Logic Works, provides for interest at 6% with a default interest of 24% per annum and requires repayment by June 26, 2016.

Agreements with TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP (“TCA”)

The Debentures contain a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation which prevents TCA from being considered a control group under SEC rules. The Company does not consider TCA a control person under SEC rules and this transaction is not a related party transaction.

Review and Approval of Related Person Transactions

We have operated under a Code of Conduct for many years. Our Code of Conduct requires all employees, officers and directors, without exception, to avoid the engagement in activities or relationships that conflict, or would be perceived to conflict, with the Company’s interests or adversely affect its reputation. It is understood, however, that certain relationships or transactions may arise that would be deemed acceptable and appropriate upon full disclosure of the transaction, following review and approval to ensure there is a legitimate business reason for the transaction and that the terms of the transaction are no less favorable to the Company than could be obtained from an unrelated person.

The Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving all transactions with related persons. The Company has not adopted a written policy for reviewing related person transactions. The Company reviews all relationships and transactions in which the Company and our directors and executive officers or their immediate family members are participants to determine whether such persons have a direct or indirect material interest. As required under SEC rules, transactions that are determined to be directly or indirectly material to the Company or a related person are disclosed.

Related Party Transactions

Since January 1, 2014, we have engaged in the following reportable transactions with our directors, executive officers, holders of more than 5% of our voting securities, and affiliates or immediately family members of our directors, executive officers and holders of more than 5% of our voting securities.

Investment in Vape Holdings, Inc.

In May 2013, we made an investment in the amount of $1,160 in Vape Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and received 200,428 shares.

Sterling C. Scott, our then Chief Executive Officer, also owned 257,320 shares of Vape’s common stock. Furthermore, the former President of GrowLife, Inc., Kyle Tracey, was the Chief Executive Officer of Vape. As a result, we deemed Vape to be a related party and therefore has recorded its investment in Vape as an “Investment in a related party” on its balance sheet.

The value of our investment in Vape as of December 31, 2013 was $5.60 per share, or $1,122,397. We sold 200,428 shares of Vape’s common stock during the year ended December 31, 2014 for net proceeds of $186,791 which was recorded as “other income” in the statement of operations.

Mr. Giarraputo agreed to provide marketing, business development, and general management to us related to the cannabis industry. As compensation for these services, and subject to approval by our Board of Directors, we were expected to grant Mr. Giarraputo a stock option to purchase 2,000,000 shares of our common stock at $0.31 per share, which represents the 30-day trailing average of our common stock. All shares subject to the option vested over a six-month period beginning on the date of engagement and are subject to the terms and conditions of our 2011 Stock Incentive Plan including vesting requirements. On August 19, 2014, the Parties cancelled this Agreement and the stock option grant was not issued.

The Board has affirmatively determined that Michael E. Fasci is independent as of December 31, 2015. For purposes of making that determination, the Board used NASDAQ’s Listing Rules even though the Company is not currently listed on NASDAQ. The Board expects to appoint independent directors during 2016. Subsequent to the fiscal year-ended December 31, 2015, Mr. Fasci was appointed as Secretary of the Company and is no longer deemed independent under this standard.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy

The Audit Committee has established a pre-approval policy and procedures for audit, audit-related and tax services that can be performed by the independent auditors without specific authorization from the Audit Committee subject to certain restrictions.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Shareholders

GrowLife, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of GrowLife, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flow for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of GrowLife, Inc. as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its consolidated operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has sustained a net loss from operations and has an accumulated deficit since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in this regard are also described in Note 2. The consolidated `financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

GROWLIFE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND ORGANIZATION

GrowLife, Inc. (“GrowLife” or the “Company”) is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware and is headquartered in Seattle, Washington. The Company was founded in 2012 with the Closing of the Agreement and Plan of Merger with SGT Merger Corporation.

The Company’s goal of becoming the nation’s largest cultivation facility service provider for the production of organics, herbs and greens and plant-based medicines has not changed. The Company’s mission is to best serve more cultivators in the design, build-out, expansion and maintenance of their facilities with products of high quality, exceptional value and competitive price. Through a nationwide network of knowledgeable representatives, regional centers and its e-commerce website, GrowLife provides essential and hard-to-find goods including media (i.e., farming soil), industry-leading hydroponics equipment, organic plant nutrients, and thousands more products to specialty grow operations across the United States.

The Company primarily sells through its wholly owned subsidiary, GrowLife Hydroponics, Inc. In addition to the promotion and sales of GrowLife owned brands, GrowLife companies distribute and sell over 3,000 products through its e-commerce distribution channel, Greners.com, and through our regional retail storefronts. GrowLife and its business units are organized and directed to operate strictly in accordance with all applicable state and federal laws.

Past Merger and Acquisition Transactions

On June 7, 2013, GrowLife Hydroponics completed the purchase of Rocky Mountain Hydroponics, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (“RMC”), and Evergreen Garden Center, LLC, a Maine limited liability company (“EGC”). The effective date of the purchase was June 7, 2013. The Company purchased all of the assets and liabilities of the RMH and EGC Companies, and their retail hydroponics stores, which are located in Vail and Boulder, Colorado and Portland, Maine. The Company purchased RMC and EGC from Rob Hunt, who was appointed to the then Company’s Board of Directors and President of GrowLife Hydroponics, Inc.

On July 23, 2012, the Company completed the purchase of substantially all of the assets of Donna Klauenburch and Tao Klauenburch related to the online retail business Greners.com.

On October 24, 2012, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary GrowLife Hydroponics, Inc., a Delaware corporation, completed the purchase of all of the shares of Soja, Inc. dba Urban Garden Supplies (the “Urban Garden”) from Richard Melograno, Michael Cook, and Scott Glass (collectively the “UG Sellers”). The Company acquired all of the assets and liabilities of Urban Garden which included the inventory of the store located at 22516 Ventura Blvd., Woodland Hills, CA 91364.

Agreement and Plan of Merger with SGT Merger Corporation

On March 21, 2012, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with SGT Merger Corporation, a Nevada corporation and the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, SG Technologies Corp, a Nevada corporation (“SGT”), Sterling C. Scott, and W-Net Fund I, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and current holder of the Company’s common stock. The transaction closed on April 5, 2012. At the Closing, (i) The Merger Corporation was merged with and into SGT; (ii) SGT became the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary; and (iii) all SGT shares of common stock were exchanged for shares of our common stock and shares of a new series of our preferred stock, which was designated Series A Preferred Stock. At the Closing, the Company issued to SGT’s former stockholders 157,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and 3,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in exchange for the 200 shares of SGT’s common stock outstanding immediately prior to the Merger. Sterling C. Scott was appointed to the then Company’s Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer.

Suspension of Trading of the Company’s Securities

On April 10, 2014, the Company received notice from the SEC that trading of the Company’s common stock on the OTCBB was to be suspended from April 10, 2014 through April 24, 2014. The SEC issued its order pursuant to Section 12(k) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. According to the notice received by us from the SEC: “It appears to the Securities and Exchange Commission that the public interest and the protection of investors require a suspension of trading in the securities of GrowLife, Inc. because of concerns regarding the accuracy and adequacy of information in the marketplace and potentially manipulative transactions in GrowLife’s common stock.” The Company did not receive notice from the SEC that it was being formally investigated.

F-6

The suspension of trading eliminated the Company’s market makers, resulted in our trading on the grey sheets, resulted in legal proceedings and restricted the Company’s access to capital. On April 25, 2014, shares of the Company’s common stock resumed trading on the “grey sheets” and were not formally quoted or listed on any stock exchange as of December 31, 2015.

SEC Charges of Manipulating Our Securities

On August 5, 2014, the SEC charged four promoters with ties to the Pacific Northwest for manipulating the Company’s open market and conducted pre-arranged, manipulative matched orders and wash trades to create the illusion of an active market in these stocks. The promoters then sold their shares in coordination with aggressive promotional campaigns that urged investors to buy the stocks because the prices were on the verge of rising substantially.

Resumed Trading of our Common Stock

On February 18, 2016, the Company’s common stock resumed unsolicited quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board after receiving clearance from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) on our Form 15c2-11. The Company is currently taking the appropriate steps to uplist to the OTCQB Exchange and resume priced quotations with market makers as soon as it is able.

NOTE 2 –

GOING CONCERN

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company incurred net losses of $5,688,845 and $86,626,099 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Our net cash used in operating activities was $1,375,891 and $2,122,577 and the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

The Company anticipates that it will record losses from operations for the foreseeable future. As of December 31, 2015, our accumulated deficit was $116,715,648. The Company has experienced recurring operating losses and negative operating cash flows since inception, and has financed its working capital requirements during this period primarily through the recurring issuance of convertible notes payable and advances from a related party. The audit report prepared by our independent registered public accounting firm relating to our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 and filed with the SEC on April 14, 2016 includes an explanatory paragraph expressing the substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining additional working capital. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: ADOPTION OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Basis of Presentation - The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The preparation of these unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. Inter-Company items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company classifies highly liquid temporary investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased as cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. Balances at US banks are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risk for cash on deposit.

F-7

Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost. Assets acquired held under capital leases are initially recorded at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments discounted at the implicit interest rate (35% for assets currently held under capital lease) or the fair value of the asset. Major improvements and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of five years. Assets acquired under capital lease are depreciated over the lesser of the useful life or the lease term. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets - The Company evaluates the carrying value of goodwill, intangible assets, and long-lived assets during the fourth quarter of each year and between annual evaluations if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to (1) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in business climate, (2) unanticipated competition, (3) an adverse action or assessment by a regulator, (4) continued losses from operations, (5) continued negative cash flows from operations, and (6) the suspension of trading of the Company’s securities. When evaluating whether goodwill is impaired, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to which the goodwill is assigned to the reporting unit’s carrying amount, including goodwill. The fair value of the reporting unit is estimated using a combination of the income, or discounted cash flows, approach and the market approach, which utilizes comparable companies’ data. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then the amount of the impairment loss must be measured. The impairment loss would be calculated by comparing the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill to its carrying amount. In calculating the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the other assets and liabilities of that unit based on their fair values. The excess of the fair value of a reporting unit over the amount assigned to its other assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill.

The Company amortizes the cost of other intangible assets over their estimated useful lives, which range up to ten years, unless such lives are deemed indefinite. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year for impairment, or more often if indicators warrant.

Equity Investments – The Company classifies all highly-liquid investments with stated maturities of greater than three months from the date of purchase and remaining maturities of less than one year as short-term investments. Investments with maturities beyond one year may be classified as short-term based on their highly liquid nature and because such investments are viewed as being available to support current operations. The Company classifies and accounts for short-term investments as available-for-sale and reflect realized gains and losses using the specific identification method. Changes in market value, if any, excluding other-than-temporary impairments, are reflected under stockholders’ deficit as unrealized gain/loss on related party investment.

Long Lived Assets – The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment annually or when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets under certain circumstances are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value. Assets to be disposed of and assets not expected to provide any future service potential to the Company are recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value (less the projected cost associated with selling the asset). To the extent carrying values exceed fair values, an impairment loss is recognized in operating results.

Level 1 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 3 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

Derivative financial instruments -The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a weighted average Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within twelve months of the balance sheet date.

F-8

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had outstanding 7% convertible notes for $500,000 that the Company determined were a derivative liability due to the “reset” clause associated with the note’s conversion price. The Company valued the derivative liability of these notes at $105,515 and $1,278,878, respectively, using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model.

As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had outstanding 6% convertible notes for $350,000 that the Company determined were a derivative liability due to the “reset” clause associated with the note’s conversion price. The Company valued the derivative liability of these notes at $54,377 and $822,037, respectively using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model.

As of December 31, 2015, the Company had outstanding 18% convertible notes for $1,150,000 that the Company determined were a derivative liability due to the “reset” clause associated with the note’s conversion price. The Company valued the derivative liability of these notes at $1,217,283 using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model.

Sales Returns - We allow customers to return defective products when they meet certain established criteria as outlined in our sales terms and conditions. It is our practice to regularly review and revise, when deemed necessary, our estimates of sales returns, which are based primarily on actual historical return rates. We record estimated sales returns as reductions to sales, cost of goods sold, and accounts receivable and an increase to inventory. Returned products which are recorded as inventory are valued based upon the amount we expect to realize upon its subsequent disposition. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, there was no reserve for sales returns, which are minimal based upon our historical experience.

Shipping and Handling Fees and Cost - For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, shipping and handling fees billed to customers totaled $95,455 and $128,351, respectively, and were included in revenue.

Stock Based Compensation - The Company has share-based compensation plans under which employees, consultants, suppliers and directors may be granted restricted stock, as well as options and warrants to purchase shares of Company common stock at the fair market value at the time of grant. Stock-based compensation cost to employees is measured by the Company at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, over the requisite service period under ASC 718. For options issued to employees, the Company recognizes stock compensation costs utilizing the fair value methodology over the related period of benefit. Grants of stock to non-employees and other parties are accounted for in accordance with the ASC 505.

Advertising Costs - Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are recorded in general and administrative expenses. For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, advertising costs of $637 and $141,369, respectively, were included in general and administrative expenses.

Net (Loss) Per Share - Under the provisions of ASC 260, “Earnings per Share,” basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted net loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would then share in the income of the Company, subject to anti-dilution limitations. The common stock equivalents have not been included as they are anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2015, there are also (i) stock option grants outstanding for the purchase of 29.0 million common shares at a $0.028 average strike price; (ii) warrants for the purchase of 565.0 million common shares at a $0.032 average exercise price; (iii) 243.6 million shares related to convertible debt that can be converted at 0.007 per share; and (iv) 6.0 million shares that may be issued to a former executive related to a severance agreement. We issued $2 million in common stock or 115,141,048 shares of our common stock pursuant to the settlement of the Consolidated Class Action and Derivative Action lawsuits alleging violations of federal securities laws that were filed against the Company in United States District Court, Central District of California. In addition, we have an unknown number of common shares to be issued under the TCA financing agreements. As of December 31, 2014, there were stock options outstanding for the purchase of 40,720,000 common shares, warrants for the purchase of 565,000,000 common shares, 209,061,571 shares related to convertible debt and 6,000,000 of shares which we may have to issue under a settlement agreement which could potentially dilute future earnings per share.

Dividend Policy - The Company has never paid any cash dividends and intends, for the foreseeable future, to retain any future earnings for the development of our business. Our future dividend policy will be determined by the board of directors on the basis of various factors, including our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and investment opportunities.

Use of Estimates - In preparing these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions included in our consolidated financial statements relate to the valuation of long-lived assets, estimates of sales returns, inventory reserves and accruals for potential liabilities, and valuation assumptions related to derivative liability, equity instruments and share based compensation.

F-9

Reclassifications - Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for 2014 have been reclassified to conform to the 2015 presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on net income, earnings per share, or stockholders’ equity as previously reported.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard setting organizations and various regulatory agencies. Due to the tentative and preliminary nature of those proposed standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed standards would be material to our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-15—Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (ASC Subtopic 205-40): “Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”. The update requires management to assess a company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. All entities are required to apply the new requirements in annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. As such, GrowLife, Inc. is required to adopt these provisions for the annual period ending December 31, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of FASB ASU 2014-15 but does not expect the adoption thereof to have a material effect on GrowLife’s financial statements.

In May 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-09—Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): “Section A—Summary and Amendments That Create Revenue from Contracts with Customers, (Topic 606) and Other Assets and Deferred Costs—Contracts with Customers (Subtopic 340-40), Section B—Conforming Amendments to Other Topics and Subtopics in the Codification and Status Tables, Section C—Background Information and Basis for Conclusions”. The guidance in this update affects any entity that enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services and supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. The update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is not permitted. As such, GrowLife, Inc. is required to adopt these provisions as of December 31, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of FASB ASU 2014-09 but does not expect the adoption thereof to have a material effect on GrowLife’s financial statements.

In July 2013, FASB issued ASU 2013-11—Income Taxes (ASC Topic 740): “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)”. The amendments in this update provide explicit guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists at the reporting date. The update is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of FASB ASU 2013-11 did not have a material effect on GrowLife’s financial statements.

New Accounting Standards Issued but Not Yet Adopted

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (“ASU 2015-02”). ASU 2015-02 affects reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. ASU 2015-02 is effective for us on January 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not believe that this pronouncement will have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”). The amendments in ASU 2015-03 require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in ASU 2015-03. ASU 2015-03 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential changes from this ASU to the Company’s future financial reporting and disclosures.

NOTE 4 – PURCHASE – ROCKY MOUNTAIN HYDROPONICS and EVERGREEN GARDEN CENTER

On June 7, 2013, GrowLife Hydroponics completed the purchase of Rocky Mountain Hydroponics, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (“RMC”), and Evergreen Garden Center, LLC, a Maine limited liability company (“EGC”). The effective date of the purchase was June 7, 2013. The purchase included all of the assets and liabilities of the RMH and EGC Companies, and their retail hydroponics stores, which are located in Vail and Boulder, Colorado and Portland, Maine. The Company purchased RMC and EGC from Rob Hunt, who was appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors and was appointed President of GrowLife Hydroponics, Inc.

The Company paid the former owners of the RMH and EGC Companies $550,000 in cash, $800,000 in 12% Secured Convertible Notes, and $275,000 (7,857,141 shares at $0.035/share) in shares of the Company’s common stock.

F-10

The purchase price was allocated to specific identifiable tangible and intangible assets at their fair value at the date of the purchase in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 805, “Business Combinations”, as follows:

Allocation	$
Assets	$	907,614
Intangible assets		366,000
Goodwill		739,000
Total		2,012,614
Less fair value of liabilities		(387,614	)
Purchase price	$	1,625,000

The Company is amortizing the $366,000 of intangible assets at the rate of $6,100 per month over 5 years, with the Company recording $106,548 of non-cash amortization expense related to these intangible assets during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014.

The Company consolidated the results from operations from June 7, 2013.

NOTE 5 – TRANSACTIONS WITH CANX USA, LLC AND LOGIC WORKS LLC

Transactions with CANX, LLC and Logic Works LLC

On July 10, 2014, the Company closed a Waiver and Modification Agreement, Amended and Restated Joint Venture Agreement, Secured Credit Facility and Secured Convertible Note with CANX, and Logic Works LLC, a lender and shareholder of the Company. The Agreements require the filing of a registration statement on Form S-1 within 10 days of the filing of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2014. Due to the Company’s grey sheet trading status and other issues, the Company did not file the registration statement.

Previously, the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with CANX USA LLC, a Nevada limited liability company. Under the terms of the Joint Venture Agreement, the Company and CANX formed Organic Growth International, LLC (“OGI”), a Nevada limited liability company, for the purpose of expanding the Company’s operations in its current retail hydroponic businesses and in other synergistic business verticals and facilitating additional funding for commercially financeable transactions of up to $40,000,000. In connection with the closing of the Agreement, CANX agreed to provide a commitment for funding in the amount of $1,300,000 for a GrowLife Infrastructure Funding Technology program transaction and provided additional funding under a 7% Convertible Note instrument for $1,000,000, including $500,000 each from Logic Works and China West III Investments LLC, entities that are unaffiliated with CANX and operate as separate legal entities. The Company initially owned a non-dilutive forty five percent (45%) share of OGI and the Company may acquire a controlling share of OGI as provided in the Joint Venture Agreement. In accordance with the Joint Venture Agreement, the Company and CANX entered into a Warrant Agreement whereby the Company delivered to CANX a warrant to purchase 140,000,000 shares of the Company common stock at a maximum strike price of $0.033 per share. Also in accordance with the Joint Venture Agreement, the Company issued an additional warrant to purchase 100,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a maximum strike price of $0.033 per share on February 7, 2014.

On April 10, 2014, as a result of the suspension in the trading of the Company’s securities, the Company went into default on its 7% Convertible Notes Payable for $500,000 each from Logic Works and China West III. As a result, the Company accrued interest on these notes at the default rate of 24% per annum. Furthermore, as a result of being in default on these notes, the Holders could have, at their sole discretion, called these notes.

Waiver and Modification Agreement

The Company entered into a Waiver and Modification Agreement dated June 25, 2014 with Logic Works LLC whereby the 7% Convertible Note with Logic Works dated December 20, 2013 was modified to provide for (i) a waiver of the default under the 7% Convertible Note; (ii) a conversion price which is the lesser of (A) $0.025 or (B) twenty percent (20%) of the average of the three (3) lowest daily VWAPs occurring during the twenty (20) consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the applicable Conversion Date on which the Holder elects to convert all or part of this Note; (iii) the filing of a registration statement on Form S-1 within 10 days of the filing of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2014; and (iv) continuing interest of 24% per annum. China West III converted its Note into common stock on June 4, 2014. Due to the Company’s grey sheet trading status and other issues, the Company did not file the registration statement.

NOTE 9 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITY

In April 2008, the FASB issued a pronouncement that provides guidance on determining what types of instruments or embedded features in an instrument held by a reporting entity can be considered indexed to its own stock for the purpose of evaluating the first criteria of the scope exception in the pronouncement on accounting for derivatives. This pronouncement was effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The adoption of these requirements can affect the accounting for warrants and many convertible instruments with provisions that protect holders from a decline in the stock price (or “down-round” provisions). For example, warrants or conversion features with such provisions are no longer recorded in equity. Down-round provisions reduce the exercise price of a warrant or convertible instrument if a company either issues equity shares for a price that is lower than the exercise price of those instruments or issues new warrants or convertible instruments that have a lower exercise price.

NOTE 13– STOCK OPTIONS

Description of Stock Option Plan

In fiscal year 2011, the Company authorized a Stock Incentive Plan whereby a maximum of 18,870,184 shares of the Company’s common stock could be granted in the form of Non-Qualified Stock Options, Incentive Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, and Other Stock-Based Awards. On April 18, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors voted to increase to 35,000,000 the maximum allowable shares of the Company’s common stock allocated to the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan. The Company has outstanding unexercised stock option grants totaling 29,020,000 shares as of December 31, 2015. All grants are non-qualified as the plan was not approved by the shareholders within one year of its adoption.

Determining Fair Value under ASC 505

The Company records compensation expense associated with stock options and other equity-based compensation using the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model for estimating fair value of stock options granted under our plan. The Company amortizes the fair value of stock options on a ratable basis over the requisite service periods, which are generally the vesting periods. The expected life of awards granted represents the period of time that they are expected to be outstanding. The Company estimates the volatility of our common stock based on the historical volatility of its own common stock over the most recent period corresponding with the estimated expected life of the award. The Company bases the risk-free interest rate used in the Black Scholes-Merton option valuation model on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with an equivalent remaining term equal to the expected life of the award. The Company has not paid any cash dividends on our common stock and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Consequently, the Company uses an expected dividend yield of zero in the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model and adjusts share-based compensation for changes to the estimate of expected equity award forfeitures based on actual forfeiture experience. The effect of adjusting the forfeiture rate is recognized in the period the forfeiture estimate is changed.

3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: ADOPTION OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS (Policies)	12 Months Ended
	Dec. 31, 2015
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation - The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The preparation of these unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).
Principles of Consolidation	Principles of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. Inter-Company items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company classifies highly liquid temporary investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased as cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances at various financial institutions. Balances at US banks are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risk for cash on deposit.
Accounts Receivable and Revenue	Accounts Receivable and Revenue - Revenue is recognized on the sale of a product when the product is shipped, which is when the risk of loss transfers to our customers, the fee is fixed and determinable, and collection of the sale is reasonably assured. A product is not shipped without an order from the customer and the completion of credit acceptance procedures. The majority of our sales are cash or credit card; however, we occasionally extend terms to our customers. Accounts receivable are reviewed periodically for collectability.
Inventories	Inventories - Inventories are recorded on a first in first out basis. Inventory consists of raw materials, purchased finished goods and components held for resale. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or market. The reserve for inventory was $20,000 and $40,215 as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Property and Equipment	Property and Equipment - Property and equipment are stated at cost. Assets acquired held under capital leases are initially recorded at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments discounted at the implicit interest rate (35% for assets currently held under capital lease) or the fair value of the asset. Major improvements and betterments are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of five years. Assets acquired under capital lease are depreciated over the lesser of the useful life or the lease term. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets	Goodwill and Intangible Assets - The Company evaluates the carrying value of goodwill, intangible assets, and long-lived assets during the fourth quarter of each year and between annual evaluations if events occur or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount. Such circumstances could include, but are not limited to (1) a significant adverse change in legal factors or in business climate, (2) unanticipated competition, (3) an adverse action or assessment by a regulator, (4) continued losses from operations, (5) continued negative cash flows from operations, and (6) the suspension of trading of the Company’s securities. When evaluating whether goodwill is impaired, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to which the goodwill is assigned to the reporting unit’s carrying amount, including goodwill. The fair value of the reporting unit is estimated using a combination of the income, or discounted cash flows, approach and the market approach, which utilizes comparable companies’ data. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then the amount of the impairment loss must be measured. The impairment loss would be calculated by comparing the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill to its carrying amount. In calculating the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the other assets and liabilities of that unit based on their fair values. The excess of the fair value of a reporting unit over the amount assigned to its other assets and liabilities is the implied fair value of goodwill. The Company amortizes the cost of other intangible assets over their estimated useful lives, which range up to ten years, unless such lives are deemed indefinite. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year for impairment, or more often if indicators warrant.
Equity Investments	Equity Investments – The Company classifies all highly-liquid investments with stated maturities of greater than three months from the date of purchase and remaining maturities of less than one year as short-term investments. Investments with maturities beyond one year may be classified as short-term based on their highly liquid nature and because such investments are viewed as being available to support current operations. The Company classifies and accounts for short-term investments as available-for-sale and reflect realized gains and losses using the specific identification method. Changes in market value, if any, excluding other-than-temporary impairments, are reflected under stockholders’ deficit as unrealized gain/loss on related party investment.
Long Lived Assets	Long Lived Assets – The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment annually or when changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets under certain circumstances are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value. Assets to be disposed of and assets not expected to provide any future service potential to the Company are recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value (less the projected cost associated with selling the asset). To the extent carrying values exceed fair values, an impairment loss is recognized in operating results.
Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments	Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments - ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows: Level 1 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2 - Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, investment in a related party, accounts payables, accrued expenses, due to related party, notes payable, and convertible notes approximates their fair values due to their short-term maturities.
Derivative Financial Instruments	Derivative financial instruments -The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a weighted average Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within twelve months of the balance sheet date. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had outstanding 7% convertible notes for $500,000 that the Company determined were a derivative liability due to the “reset” clause associated with the note’s conversion price. The Company valued the derivative liability of these notes at $105,515 and $1,278,878, respectively, using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the Company had outstanding 6% convertible notes for $350,000 that the Company determined were a derivative liability due to the “reset” clause associated with the note’s conversion price. The Company valued the derivative liability of these notes at $54,377 and $822,037, respectively using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. As of December 31, 2015, the Company had outstanding 18% convertible notes for $1,150,000 that the Company determined were a derivative liability due to the “reset” clause associated with the note’s conversion price. The Company valued the derivative liability of these notes at $1,217,283 using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model.
Sales Returns	Sales Returns - We allow customers to return defective products when they meet certain established criteria as outlined in our sales terms and conditions. It is our practice to regularly review and revise, when deemed necessary, our estimates of sales returns, which are based primarily on actual historical return rates. We record estimated sales returns as reductions to sales, cost of goods sold, and accounts receivable and an increase to inventory. Returned products which are recorded as inventory are valued based upon the amount we expect to realize upon its subsequent disposition. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, there was no reserve for sales returns, which are minimal based upon our historical experience.
Shipping and Handling Fees and Cost	Shipping and Handling Fees and Cost - For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, shipping and handling fees billed to customers totaled $95,455 and $128,351, respectively, and were included in revenue.
Stock Based Compensation	Stock Based Compensation - The Company has share-based compensation plans under which employees, consultants, suppliers and directors may be granted restricted stock, as well as options and warrants to purchase shares of Company common stock at the fair market value at the time of grant. Stock-based compensation cost to employees is measured by the Company at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, over the requisite service period under ASC 718. For options issued to employees, the Company recognizes stock compensation costs utilizing the fair value methodology over the related period of benefit. Grants of stock to non-employees and other parties are accounted for in accordance with the ASC 505.
Advertising Costs	Advertising Costs - Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are recorded in general and administrative expenses. For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, advertising costs of $637 and $141,369, respectively, were included in general and administrative expenses.
Net (Loss) Per Share	Net (Loss) Per Share - Under the provisions of ASC 260, “Earnings per Share,” basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the periods presented. Diluted net loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that would then share in the income of the Company, subject to anti-dilution limitations. The common stock equivalents have not been included as they are anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2015, there are also (i) stock option grants outstanding for the purchase of 29.0 million common shares at a $0.028 average strike price; (ii) warrants for the purchase of 565.0 million common shares at a $0.032 average exercise price; (iii) 243.6 million shares related to convertible debt that can be converted at 0.007 per share; and (iv) 6.0 million shares that may be issued to a former executive related to a severance agreement. We issued $2 million in common stock or 115,141,048 shares of our common stock pursuant to the settlement of the Consolidated Class Action and Derivative Action lawsuits alleging violations of federal securities laws that were filed against the Company in United States District Court, Central District of California. In addition, we have an unknown number of common shares to be issued under the TCA financing agreements. As of December 31, 2014, there were stock options outstanding for the purchase of 40,720,000 common shares, warrants for the purchase of 565,000,000 common shares, 209,061,571 shares related to convertible debt and 6,000,000 of shares which we may have to issue under a settlement agreement which could potentially dilute future earnings per share.
Dividend Policy	Dividend Policy - The Company has never paid any cash dividends and intends, for the foreseeable future, to retain any future earnings for the development of our business. Our future dividend policy will be determined by the board of directors on the basis of various factors, including our results of operations, financial condition, capital requirements and investment opportunities.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates - In preparing these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions included in our consolidated financial statements relate to the valuation of long-lived assets, estimates of sales returns, inventory reserves and accruals for potential liabilities, and valuation assumptions related to derivative liability, equity instruments and share based compensation.
Reclassifications	Reclassifications - Certain amounts in the consolidated financial statements for 2014 have been reclassified to conform to the 2015 presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on net income, earnings per share, or stockholders’ equity as previously reported.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	A variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard setting organizations and various regulatory agencies. Due to the tentative and preliminary nature of those proposed standards, management has not determined whether implementation of such proposed standards would be material to our consolidated financial statements. In August 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-15—Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (ASC Subtopic 205-40): “Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”. The update requires management to assess a company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. All entities are required to apply the new requirements in annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. As such, GrowLife, Inc. is required to adopt these provisions for the annual period ending December 31, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of FASB ASU 2014-15 but does not expect the adoption thereof to have a material effect on GrowLife’s financial statements. In May 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-09—Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): “Section A—Summary and Amendments That Create Revenue from Contracts with Customers, (Topic 606) and Other Assets and Deferred Costs—Contracts with Customers (Subtopic 340-40), Section B—Conforming Amendments to Other Topics and Subtopics in the Codification and Status Tables, Section C—Background Information and Basis for Conclusions”. The guidance in this update affects any entity that enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services and supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. The update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is not permitted. As such, GrowLife, Inc. is required to adopt these provisions as of December 31, 2016. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of FASB ASU 2014-09 but does not expect the adoption thereof to have a material effect on GrowLife’s financial statements. In July 2013, FASB issued ASU 2013-11—Income Taxes (ASC Topic 740): “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)”. The amendments in this update provide explicit guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists at the reporting date. The update is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The adoption of FASB ASU 2013-11 did not have a material effect on GrowLife’s financial statements. *New Accounting Standards Issued but Not Yet Adopted* In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (“ASU 2015-02”). ASU 2015-02 affects reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. ASU 2015-02 is effective for us on January 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company does not believe that this pronouncement will have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”). The amendments in ASU 2015-03 require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in ASU 2015-03. ASU 2015-03 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential changes from this ASU to the Company’s future financial reporting and disclosures.
