WEED, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2021
Note 1 – Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Business
WEED, Inc. (the Company), (formerly United Mines, Inc.) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Arizona on August 20, 1999 (Inception Date) as Plae, Inc. to engage in the exploration of gold and silver mining properties. On November 26, 2014, the Company was renamed from United Mines, Inc. to WEED, Inc. and was repurposed to pursue a business involving the purchase of land, and building Commercial Grade Cultivation Centers to consult, assist, manage & lease to Licensed Dispensary owners and organic grow operators on a contract basis, with a concentration on the legal and medical marijuana sector. The Companys plan is to become a True Seed-to-Sale company providing infrastructure, financial solutions and real estate options in this new emerging market. The Company, under United Mines, was formerly in the process of acquiring mineral properties or claims located in the State of Arizona, USA. The name was previously changed on February 18, 2005 to King Mines, Inc. and then subsequently changed to United Mines, Inc. on March 30, 2005. The Company trades on the OTC Pink Sheets under the stock symbol: BUDZ.
On April 20, 2017, the Company acquired Sangre AT, LLC, a Wyoming company doing business as Sangre AgroTech. (Sangre). Sangre is a plant genomic research and breeding company comprised of top-echelon scientists with extensive expertise in genomic sequencing, genetics-based breeding, plant tissue culture, and plant biochemistry, utilizing the most advanced sequencing and analytical technologies and proprietary bioinformatics data systems available. No work is being conducted now until further funds are available.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein.
The Company has a calendar year end for reporting purposes.
Basis of Presentation:
The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2020, has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2021 and 2020 ( the financial statements), have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included in our Registration Statement on Form S-1 for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the 2020 Annual Report), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC). It is managements opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments), have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statements presentation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to make the condensed consolidated financial statements not misleading as required by Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the following entities, all of which are under common control and ownership:
State of | Abbreviated | |||||
Name of Entity | Incorporation | Relationship (1) | Reference | |||
Nevada | Parent | WEED | ||||
Wyoming | Subsidiary | Sangre |
(1) |
(2) |
The consolidated financial statements herein contain the operations of the wholly-owned subsidiary listed above. All significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated in the preparation of these financial statements. The parent company, WEED and subsidiary, Sangre will be collectively referred to herein as the Company, or WEED. The Companys headquarters are located in Tucson, Arizona and its operations are primarily within the United States, with minimal operations in Australia.
These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein.
10
Note 1 – Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Under FASB ASC 820-10-05, the Financial Accounting Standards Board establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Companys financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, prepaid expenses and accrued expenses reported on the balance sheet are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short term nature of the instruments.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for possible impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable or is impaired. Recoverability is assessed using undiscounted cash flows based upon historical results and current projections of earnings before interest and taxes. Impairment is measured using discounted cash flows of future operating results based upon a rate that corresponds to the cost of capital. Impairments are recognized in operating results to the extent that carrying value exceeds discounted cash flows of future operations.
The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an as if converted basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the periods presented, potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share.
Under FASB ASC 718-10-30-2, all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative.
Revenue Recognition
The Company is using the revenue recognition standard ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), and using the cumulative effect (modified retrospective) approach. Modified retrospective adoption requires entities to apply the standard retrospectively to the most current period presented in the financial statements, requiring the cumulative effect of the retrospective application as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings at the date of initial application. No cumulative-effect adjustment in retained earnings was recorded as the Companys has no historical revenue. The impact of the adoption of the new standard was not material to the Companys condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company did not earn revenue during the periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. When the Company earns revenue, it will be recognized in accordance with FASB ASC 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
The primary change under the new guidance is the requirement to report the allowance for uncollectible accounts as a reduction in net revenue as opposed to bad debt expense, a component of operating expenses. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements, other than additional financial statement disclosures. The guidance requires increased disclosures, including qualitative and quantitative disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.
The Company operates as one reportable segment.
Sales on fixed price contracts are recorded when services are earned, the earnings process is complete or substantially complete, and the revenue is measurable and collectability is reasonably assured. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company will defer any revenue from sales in which payment has been received, but the earnings process has not occurred. Sales have not yet commenced.
Advertising and Promotion
All
costs associated with advertising and promoting products are expensed as incurred. These expenses were $

Note 1 – Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15 Accounting for Implementation Costs Related to Cloud Computing or Hosting Arrangements. This standard provides authoritative guidance intended to address a customers accounting for implementation costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is a service contract. This guidance aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The guidance also requires presentation of the capitalized implementation costs in the statement of financial position and in the statement of cash flows in the same line item that a prepayment for the fees of the associated hosting arrangement would be presented, and the expense related to the capitalized implementation costs to be presented in the same line item in the statement of operations as the fees associated with the hosting element (service) of the arrangement. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company has adopted this standard beginning January 1, 2020. The adoption of this standard has not had a significant impact on the Companys results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement disclosures.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. The standard requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet and requires expanded disclosures about leasing arrangements. The Company adopted the new lease guidance effective January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition approach, applying the new standard to all of its leases existing at the date of initial application which is the effective date of adoption. Consequently, financial information will not be updated and the disclosures required under the new standard will not be provided for dates and periods before January 1, 2019. We elected the package of practical expedients which permits us to not reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (2) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and (3) any initial direct costs for any existing leases as of the effective date. We did not elect the hindsight practical expedient which permits entities to use hindsight in determining the lease term and assessing impairment. The adoption of the lease standard did not change our previously reported consolidated statements of operations and did not result in a cumulative catch-up adjustment to opening equity. As of June 30, 2021, the adoption of the standard had no impact on the Company, as there were no leases in place longer than 12 months.
In June 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This ASU expands the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The amendments in this ASU has now become effective beginning January 1, 2019, and early adoption is permitted. The Company has adopted this standard beginning January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard has not had a significant impact on the Companys results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement disclosures.
Note 2 – Going Concern
As
shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has no revenues, incurred net losses from operations resulting in an accumulated
deficit of $
The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The options shall become exercisable at the rate of 1/3 upon the six-month anniversary, 1/3 upon the one-year anniversary and 1/3 upon the second anniversary of the grant. The options were valued at $45,987,970 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company recognized expense of approximately, $ relating to these options during the three months ended March 31, 2020.
Note 4 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Under FASB ASC 820-10-5, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The standard outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures. Under GAAP, certain assets and liabilities must be measured at fair value, and FASB ASC 820-10-50 details the disclosures that are required for items measured at fair value.
The Company has certain financial instruments that must be measured under the new fair value standard. The Companys financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The three levels are as follows:
Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 - Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
13
The following schedule summarizes the valuation of financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis in the balance sheets as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively:

Note 10 – Commitments and Contingencies
On November 8, 2016, the Company entered into an agreement with Gregory DiPaolos Pro Am Golf, LLC to acquire improved property located in Westfield, New York. The total purchase price of $1,600,000 is to be paid with a deposit of 50,000 shares of common stock, followed by cash of $1,250,000 and 300,000 shares of the Companys common stock to be delivered at closing. The deposit of 50,000 shares issued as a deposit was $42,500 based on the closing price of the Companys common stock on the date of grant. Subsequently, we entered into an amended Purchase and Sale Agreement on October 24, 2017, under which we amended the total purchase price to Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars ($800,000) and forfeited our previous deposit of stock. Under the terms of the amended agreement, we paid an additional Ten Thousand Dollar ($10,000) deposit on October 26, 2017, with the remaining purchase price to be paid on or before the date closing date, which was scheduled on May 1, 2018. The property is approximately 43 acres and has unlimited water extraction rights from the State of New York. We had planned to use this property as our inroads to the New York hemp and infused beverage markets in the future. Since the property was in foreclosure it was put up for auction, which occurred on July 1, 2019. At the auction, we were the winning bidder with a bid of $597,000. Our prior deposit payment of $120,000 was credited towards the purchase price, and the remaining $477,000, was finally due on November 30, 2019, after several extensions (which cost us total of $40,000 to obtain). At the end of December 31, 2020, a total of $212,000 was issued as a deposit for the property. We were not able to meet that deadline, but in January 2020 we worked out an additional extension with the bank. Under the terms of the new agreement, we still owe approximately $392,000 to acquire the property. We have agreed to pay that amount in installment payments of $10,000 per month for six months beginning February 2020, with a balloon payment of approximately $332,000 due on or before August 3, 2020. We were not able to pay the balloon payment by the August 3, 2020 deadline, but on July 31, 2020 we worked out an additional extension with the bank. Under the terms of that agreement, we paid $10,000 in exchange for an additional extension and we owed approximately $332,000 to acquire the property. We agreed to pay that amount in installment payments of $10,000 per month for six months beginning September 2020, with a balloon payment of approximately $272,000 due on or before February 1, 2021. We made the six $10,000 monthly payments but were not able to pay the balloon payment by the February 1, 2021 deadline, but on January 18, 2021 we worked out an additional extension with the bank. Under the terms of that agreement, we agreed to pay $10,000 per month beginning February 1, 2021 until November 1, 2021, and then pay a balloon payment of approximately $172,000 due on or before December 1, 2021.
These payments are in addition to the approximately $540,000 in payments we have already made. We made the $10,000 payments due on February 1, 2021, March 1, 2021, May 25th, 2021, and June 22nd, 2021.

ITEM 2 Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Disclaimer Regarding Forward Looking Statements
Our Managements Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations contains not only statements that are historical facts, but also statements that are forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are, by their very nature, uncertain and risky. These risks and uncertainties include international, national and local general economic and market conditions; demographic changes; our ability to sustain, manage, or forecast growth; our ability to successfully make and integrate acquisitions; raw material costs and availability; new product development and introduction; existing government regulations and changes in, or the failure to comply with, government regulations; adverse publicity; competition; the loss of significant customers or suppliers; fluctuations and difficulty in forecasting operating results; changes in business strategy or development plans; business disruptions; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the ability to protect technology; and other risks that might be detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Although the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report reflect the good faith judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by them. Consequently, and because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, the actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports as we attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations and prospects.
Overview
We are an early stage holding company currently focused on the development and application of cannabis-derived compounds for the treatment of human disease. Our wholly-owned subsidiary, Sangre AT, LLC (Sangre), has begun a planned five-year Cannabis Genomic Study to complete a genetic blueprint of the Cannabis plant genus, by creating a global genomic classification of the entire plant. By targeting cannabis-derived molecules that stimulate the endocannabinoid system, Sangres research team plans to develop scientifically-valid and evidence-based cannabis strains for the production of disease-specific medicines. The goal of the research is to identify, collect, patent, and archive a collection of highly-active medicinal strains. We plan to conduct this study only in states where cannabis has been legalized for medicinal purposes.
Using annotated genomic data and newly generated phenotypic data, Sangre plans to identify and isolate regions of the plant genome which are related to growth, synthesis of desired molecules, and drought and pest resistance. This complex data set would then be utilized in a breeding program to generate and establish new hybrid cultivars which exemplify the traits that are desired by the medical and patient community. This breeding program would produce new seed stocks and clones, which we plan on patenting. If successful this intellectual property should generate immense value for the Company. After developing a comprehensive understanding of the annotated genome of a variety of cannabis strains, and obtaining intellectual property protection over the most promising strains, we plan move forward either independently or with strategic partners to develop medicinal products for the treatment of a multitude of human diseases.
Our current, short-term goals relate to the Cannabis Genomic Study and the resulting development of a variety of new cannabis strains, and, over the next 5 years, we plan to process those results in order to become an international cannabis research and product development company, with a globally-recognized brand focusing on building and purchasing labs, land and building commercial grade Cultivation Centers to consult, assist, manage & lease to universities, state governments, licensed dispensary owners and organic grow operators on a contract basis with a concentration on the legal and medical cannabis sector.
Our long-term plan is to become a true Seed-to-Sale global holding company providing infrastructure, financial solutions, product development, and real estate options in this new emerging market. Our long term growth may also come from the acquisition of synergistic businesses, such as distilleries, to make anything from infused beverages to super oxygenated water with CBD and THC. Currently, we have formed WEED Australia Ltd., registered as an unlisted public company in Australia to address this Global demand. We have also formed WEED Australia Ltd., registered as an unlisted public company in Australia, to address future global demand, however the entity has been dormant since its inception. We will look to conduct future research, marketing, import/exporting, and manufacturing of our proprietary products on an international level.
21
In furtherance of our current, short terms goals, Sangre initiated the cannabis genome project in April 2017, by extracting DNA from seven cannabis strains in Tucson, Arizona. Sangre followed the initial extraction with a second round of extractions in July 2017. The extracted DNA will be sequenced by the Sangre team using a binary sequencing approach based on the use of two distinct sequencing technologies and a proprietary bioinformatics database, as funds allow. Following the generation of genomic data, the sequences will be annotated (compared) against over 300,000 plant genes to elucidate specific de novo pathways responsible for the synthesis of specific compounds and classes of compounds.
Under the genome project directives, additional strains are slated for sequencing and annotation as part of the overall expansion of this research project. An integral part of this expansion is the acquisition of additional DNA extraction, amplification, and sequencing technologies. The expansion also includes the installation of high-level IT networks for data acquisition, analysis, and storage.
On July 26, 2017, we acquired a property located in La Veta, Colorado in order for Sangre to complete its 5-Year, $15+ million Cannabis Genomic Study. The site includes a 10,000+ sq. ft. building that will house Sangres genomic research facility, a 4,000+ square foot building for plant product analytics and plant product extraction, a 3,500 sq. ft. corporate office center, and 25 RV slots with full water and electric, which we plan to convert into a series of small research pods. Under the terms of the purchase agreement, we paid $525,000 down, along with 25,000 shares of our common stock, and Sangre took immediate possession of the property. We were obligated to pay an additional $400,000 in cash and issue an additional 75,000 shares of our common stock over the two next years in order to pay the entire purchase price. To date we have spent $354,000 renovating the property and an additional $400,000 on extraction and analytical lab equipment. We plan to complete the property renovations at an estimated cost of $300,000, if we raise sufficient funding. We will need additional extraction equipment and analytical lab equipment, totaling approximately $700,000. During the year ended December 31, 2019, construction in progress in the amount of $499,695 was fully impaired due to the fact we may not receive funds to complete the research facility center project. There was no work performed on the facility in 2019, 2020 or so far in 2021. We will need to raise additional funds in order to complete the planned renovations and pay the purchase price for the equipment.
We acquired the property in La Veta, Colorado in order to facilitate the expansion of the genomic studies and the development of new hybrid strains. We plan for the facility to undergo a re-design and renovation to convert the existing structures into a world-class genetics research center, once we have sufficient funds to proceed with the work.
A gene-based breeding program will allow us to root out inferior cultivars and replace them with fully-validated and patentable cultivars which produce consistent plant products for the medicinal markets. The gene-based breeding program will improve cultivars and introduce integrity, stability, and quality to the market in the following ways:
● accelerated and optimized growth rates; modern genomic resources will enhance traditional breeding methods
● generate new cultivars, accelerating and perfecting the art of selective breeding
● provide the ability to assay for specific genes within the crop, establish strain tracking, and promote market quality assurance
● improved disease, pest, and drought resistance of the Cannabis plant
We believe the gene-based breeding program will facilitate and accelerate:
● improved therapeutic properties, i.e., increased THC/CBD concentration and the production of specific classes of oils and terpenses
● enhanced opportunities for new drug discovery
● accelerated breeding of super-cultivars: drought, pest, and mold resistant, increased %THC
● revenue generation through our unique ability to breed and genetically fingerprint new, super-cultivars: establish strong patent protection; and provide these cultivars to the market on a favorable cost and royalty basis.
22
Our goal with this program is to develop a translational breeding program to establish a new collection of Cannabis cultivars for the Colorado, national, and international markets. Through the use of genetic screening technology, cultivars can be up-selected for specific traits and grown to address the needs of consumers in the medicinal market.
Corporate Overview
We were originally incorporated under the name Plae, Inc., in the State of Arizona on August 20, 1999. At the time we operated under the name Plae, Inc., no business was conducted. No books or records were maintained and no meetings were held. In essence, nothing was done after incorporation until Glenn E. Martin took possession of Plae, Inc. in January 2005. On February 18, 2005, the corporate name was changed to King Mines, Inc. and then subsequently changed to its current name, United Mines, Inc., on March 30, 2005. No shares were issued until the Company became United Mines, Inc. From 2005 until 2015, we were an exploration stage mineral exploration company that owned a number of unpatented mining claims and Arizona State Land Department claims.
On November 26, 2014, our Board of Directors approved the redomestication of our company from Arizona to Nevada (the Articles of Domestication), and approved Articles of Incorporation in Nevada, which differed from then-Articles of Incorporation in Arizona, primarily by (a) changing our name from United Mines, Inc. to WEED, Inc., (b) authorizing Twenty Million (20,000,000) shares of preferred stock, with blank check rights granted to our Board of Directors, and (c) authorizing Two Hundred Million (200,000,000) shares of common stock (the Nevada Articles of Incorporation). On December 19, 2014, the holders of a majority of our outstanding common stock approved the Articles of Domestication and the Nevada Articles of Incorporation at a Special Meeting of Shareholders. On January 16, 2015, the Articles of Domestication and the Nevada Articles of Incorporation went effective with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. On February 2, 2015, our name change to WEED, Inc., and a corresponding ticker symbol change to BUDZ went effective with FINRA and was reflected on the quotation of our common stock on OTC Markets.
These changes were affected in order to make our corporate name and ticker symbol better align with our short-term and long-term business focus. Our current, short-term goals relate to the Cannabis Genomic Study and the resulting development of a variety of new cannabis strains, and, over the next 5 years, we plan to process those results in order to become an international cannabis research and product development company, with a globally-recognized brand focusing on building and purchasing labs, land and building commercial grade Cultivation Centers to consult, assist, manage & lease to universities, state governments, licensed dispensary owners and organic grow operators on a contract basis with a concentration on the legal and medical cannabis sector.
Our long-term plan is to become a true Seed-to-Sale global holding company providing infrastructure, financial solutions, product development, and real estate options in this new emerging market. Our long term growth may also come from the acquisition of synergistic businesses, such as distilleries, to make anything from infused beverages to super oxygenated water with CBD and THC. Currently, we have formed WEED Australia Ltd., registered as an unlisted public company in Australia to address this Global demand. We have also formed WEED Israel Cannabis Ltd., an Israeli corporation, to address future global demand. We will look to conduct future research, marketing, import/exporting, and manufacturing of our proprietary products on an international level.
On April 20, 2017, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Sangre AT, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company, under which we acquired all of the issued and outstanding limited liability company membership units of Sangre in exchange for Five Hundred Thousand (500,000) shares of our common stock, restricted in accordance with Rule 144. As a result of this agreement, Sangre is a wholly-owned subsidiary of WEED, Inc.
This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements included as part of this Quarterly Report.

Our operating loss increased by $651,138, from ($556,474) to ($1,207,612) for the same period. The increase in net loss compared to the same period of the prior year is primarily a result of a significant increase in professional fees, partially offset by a decrease in depreciation and amortization. These changes are detailed below.
Revenue
We have not had any revenues since our inception. We are a company focused on the medical cannabis sector. In the short-term we plan to conduct Sangres Cannabis Genomic Study over the next 5 years and process those result, and in the long-term is to be a company focused on purchasing land and building commercial grade Cultivation Centers to consult, assist, manage & lease to licensed dispensary owners and organic grow operators on a contract basis, with a concentration on the legal and medical marijuana (Cannabis) sector. Our long-term plan is to become a True Seed-to-Sale company providing infrastructure, financial solutions and real estate options in this new emerging market, worldwide. We plan to make our brand global and therefore we will look for opportunities to conduct future research, marketing, import and exporting, and manufacturing of any proprietary products on an international level.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses increased by $3,678, from $73,087 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 to $76,765 for the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily due to a slight increase in consulting services and fees.
24
Professional Fees
Our professional fees increased by $661,081 during the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. Our professional fees were $1,103,244 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and $442,163 for the three months ended June 30, 2020. These fees are largely related to fees paid for legal and accounting services, along with compensation to independent contractors, and increased significantly primarily as a result of an increase in the value of stock-based compensation awards due to issuing shares for services during the period. We expect these fees to vary quarter-to-quarter as our business and stock price fluctuate if we continue to use stock-based compensation. In the event we undertake an unusual transaction, such as an acquisition, securities offering, or file a registration statement, we would expect these fees to substantially increase during that period.
Depreciation and Amortization
During the three months ended June 30, 2021 we had depreciation and amortization expense of $27,603, compared to $41,224 in the three months ended June 30, 2020. Our depreciation and amortization expense primarily relates to our property and trademark acquisitions.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased from $18,039 to $17,233 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2021. Our interest expense primarily relates to notes payable from attorney and related parties.
Other Expense
During the three months ended June 30, 2021, we had other expense of $2,918, compared to $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The other expense during the three months ended June 30, 2021 related to finance charges.

Our professional fees decreased by $1,855,956 during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2020. Our professional fees were $1,574,856 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and $3,430,812 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. These fees are largely related to fees paid for legal and accounting services, along with compensation to independent contractors, and decreased significantly primarily as a result of a decrease in the value of stock-based compensation awards due to our declining stock price. We expect these fees to vary quarter-to-quarter as our business and stock price fluctuate if we continue to use stock-based compensation. In the event we undertake an unusual transaction, such as an acquisition, securities offering, or file a registration statement, we would expect these fees to substantially increase during that period.
Depreciation and Amortization
During the six months ended June 30, 2021 we had depreciation and amortization expense of $60,961, compared to $76,723 in the six months ended June 30, 2020. Our depreciation and amortization expense primarily relates to our property and trademark acquisitions.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased from $22,630 to $26,800 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2021. Our interest expense primarily relates to notes payable from attorney and related parties.
Other Expense
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we had other expense of $9,409, compared to $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The other expense during the six months ended June 30, 2021 related to finance charges.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Introduction
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, because of our operating losses, we did not generate positive operating cash flows. Our cash on hand as of June 30, 2021 was $43,734 and our monthly cash flow burn rate was approximately $45,000. Our cash on hand was primarily proceeds from the sales of our securities. We currently do not believe we will be able to satisfy our cash needs from our revenues for many years to come.
26
Our cash, current assets, total assets, current liabilities, and total liabilities as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, are as follows:
June 30, 2021 | December 31, 2020 | Change | ||||||||||
Cash | $ | 38,602 | $ | 12,629 | $ | 25,973 | ||||||
Total Current Assets | 334,118 | 255,134 | 78,984 | |||||||||
Total Assets | 1,840,755 | 1,818,997 | 21,758 | |||||||||
Total Current Liabilities | 989,454 | 937,278 | 52,176 | |||||||||
Total Liabilities | $ | 989,454 | $ | 937,278 | $ | 52,176 |
Our total assets increased by $21,758 as of June 30, 2021 as compared to December 31, 2020. The increase in our total assets between the two periods was primarily attributed to increases in our cash and deposits, partially offset by a decrease in our prepaid expenses at June 30, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020.
Our current liabilities and total liabilities increased by $52,176, as of June 30, 2021 as compared to December 31, 2020. This increase was due to increases in accrued officer compensation, accounts payable, accrued interest, and notes payable, related party, partially offset by decreases in accrued expenses and in notes payable – in default.
In order to pay our obligations in full or in part when due, we will be required to raise capital from other sources. There is no assurance, however, that we will be successful in these efforts.
Cash Requirements
We had cash available of $38,602 and $12,629 as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Based on our revenues, cash on hand and current monthly burn rate of approximately $45,000, we will need to continue borrowing from our shareholders and other related parties, and/or raise money from the sales of our securities, to fund operations.

ITEM 3 | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
ITEM 4 | Controls and Procedures |
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. Disclosure and control procedures are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
As of June 30, 2021, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our chief executive officer (our Principal Executive Officer) and chief financial officer (our Principal Financial Officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that there are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their desired control objectives. Additionally, in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures, management is required to apply its reasonable judgment. We also do not have an audit committee. Based on the evaluation described above, and as a result, in part, of not having an audit committee and having one individual serve as our chief executive officer and chief financial officer has concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2021 to the same extent they were not effective as of December 31, 2020.
In addition to the deficiencies previously reported, we do not have formal processes related to the identification and approval of related party transactions.
As funds become available to us, we expect to implement additional measures to improve disclosure controls and procedures.
(b) Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report, which has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
(c) Officers Certifications
Appearing as an exhibit to this quarterly report on Form 10-Q are Certifications of our Chief Executive and Financial Officer. The Certifications are required pursuant to Sections 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the Section 302 Certifications). This section of the quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains information concerning the Controls Evaluation referred to in the Section 302 Certifications. This information should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1 | Legal Proceedings |
William Martin v. WEED, Inc. et al
On January 19, 2018, we were sued in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona (William Martin v. WEED, Inc., Case No. 4:18-cv-00027-RM) by the listed Plaintiff. We were served with the Verified Complaint on January 26, 2018. The Complaint alleges claims for breach of contract-specific performance, breach of contract-damages, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, conversion, and injunctive relief. In addition to the Verified Complaint, we were served with an application to show cause for a temporary restraining order. The Verified Complaint alleges we entered into a contract with the Plaintiff on October 1, 2014 for the Plaintiff to perform certain consulting services for the company in exchange for 500,000 shares of our common stock up front and an additional 700,000 shares of common stock to be issued on May 31, 2015. The Plaintiff alleges he completed the requested services under the agreement and received the initial 500,000 shares of common stock, but not the additional 700,000 shares. The request for injunctive relief asks the Court to Order us to issue the Plaintiff 700,000 shares of our common stock, and possibly include them in our previously-filed Registration Statement on Form S-1, or, in the alternative, issue the shares and have them held by the Court pending resolution of the litigation, or, alternatively, sell the shares and deposit the sale proceeds in an account that the Court will control. The hearing on the Temporary Restraining Order occurred on January 29, 2018. On January 30, 2018, the Court issued its ruling denying the application for a Temporary Restraining Order.
On February 13, 2018, we filed an Answer to the Verified Complaint and a Counterclaim. In the original Counterclaim we named William Martin as the sole counter-defendant, and alleged, that based upon William Martins representations and recommendation, WEED, Inc. hired Michael Ryan as a consultant. We allege that William Martin misrepresented, failed to disclose, and concealed facts from us concerning the relationship between him and Michael Ryan. We were seeking compensatory damages caused by William Martins misrepresentation, failure to disclose, and concealment.
On February 15, 2018, we filed a Motion to Dismiss the Verified Complaint. On February 23, 2018, we filed a Motion to Amend Counterclaim to add W. Martins wife, Joanna Martin as a counterdefendant. On March 9, 2018, William Martin filed a Motion to Dismiss the Counterclaim. On March 12, 2018, William Martin filed a Motion to Amend the Verified Complaint to, among other things, add claims against Glenn Martin and Nicole and Ryan Breen. On March 27, 2018, the Court granted both William Martin and WEED, Inc.s Motions to Amend. On March 27, 2018, we filed an Amended Counterclaim adding Joanna Martin. On April 2, 2018, we filed a Motion to Amend our Counterclaim to add a breach of contract claim. On April 10, 2018, we filed an Answer to First Amended Verified Complaint. On April 23, 2018, Glenn Martin and Nicole and Ryan Breen filed their Answer to the First Amended Complaint. On May 31, 2018, the Court issued an Order: (a) granting our Motion to Dismiss thereby dismissing the claims for breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing and the claim for conversion, (b) denying William Martins Motion to Dismiss the counterclaim as to the claims for fraudulent concealment and fraudulent misrepresentation, but granting the Motion to Dismiss only as to the claim for fraudulent nondisclosure, and (c) granting our Motion to Amend our Counterclaim to add a breach of contract claim. In our breach of contract claim, we allege William Martin breached his Consulting Agreement with us by failing to perform consulting services to us in a professional and timely manner using the highest degree of skill, diligence, and expertise pursuant to the Consulting Agreement. We are seeking an award of compensatory damages caused by the breach of the Consulting Agreement, together with attorneys fees and costs. On June 1, 2018, William Martin and his wife filed their Answer to the First Amended Counterclaim. On June 1, 2018, William Martin and his wife filed their Answer to the Second Amended Counterclaim.
The parties have conducted discovery and disclosure, including the production by WEED, Inc. of voluminous electronically stored information and the depositions of William, Martin, Glenn E. Martin, Michael Ryan, and Chris Richardson. No other depositions are presently anticipated.
On September 14, 2018, WEED, Inc. filed a Motion for Partial Summary Judgment (MPSJ) seeking the dismissal of all remaining claims in the First Amended Complaint. On November 26, 2018, plaintiff filed an opposition to the motion for partial summary judgment, together with a cross-motion for summary judgment on both plaintiffs claims and the Corporations counterclaims. Those motions have been fully briefed. Originally, the Court set oral argument on the motions for May 16, 2019, but that hearing has been postponed by the Court due to health issues with Plaintiffs counsel. Subsequently, Plaintiffs counsel withdrew and consequently, William Martin and his wife are unrepresented. By order of the Court, the Parties participated in a judicial settlement conference August 21, 2019 with Magistrate Judge Thomas Ferraro, but the case did not settle. On October 15, 2019, Judge Marquez heard oral argument on the cross-motions for partial summary judgment. The judge took the motions under considerations. On November 21, 2019, the Judge issued a ruling, which (i) granted our motion for summary judgment as to the Plaintiffs claim for fraudulent transfer, and as a result Glenn Martin, Nicole Breen, Ryan Breen and GEM Management Group, LLC were dismissed from the lawsuit, (ii) denied our motion to dismiss Plaintiffs claims for breach of contract, and (iii) granted Plaintiffs motion to dismiss our claims for fraudulent misrepresentation/concealment, which acted to dismiss our claims against the Plaintiffs. As a result of this ruling, the remaining claim in the lawsuit was one for breach of contract against WEED, Inc.
29
On March 5, 2020, the Plaintiffs filed a Motion to Dismiss the remaining counts in the lawsuit, without prejudice. On March 5, 2020, we filed a Response to the Motion to Dismiss stating that we did not object to the Plaintiffs motion. As a result, on March 10, 2020, the Court entered an Order dismissing Plaintiffs remaining counts in the Complaint without prejudice. The only remaining claims relate to awards for attorneys fees, with the Parties motions pending.
In the ordinary course of business, we are from time to time involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. The litigation process is inherently uncertain and it is possible that the resolution of such matters might have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition and/or results of operations. However, in the opinion of our management, other than as set forth herein, matters currently pending or threatened against us are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 2 | Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds |
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we issued the following unregistered securities:
Common Stock Sales
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we issued 1,500,000 shares of common stock for proceeds of $410,000. 150,000 shares valued at $40,000 were not issued at June 30, 2021, and such amount has been included in subscriptions payable. The offering and sales were made in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. To make this determination we relied on the representations of the purchaser contained in the securities purchase agreements signed by the purchaser, which indicated the purchaser were knowledgeable about our management and our operations, were sophisticated investors, and understood the purchase was part of a private placement.
Common Stock Issued to Consultants
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we issued an aggregate of 2,785,000 shares of common stock to consultants for services performed. The total fair value of common stock was $1,743,350 based on the closing price of our common stock earned on the measurement date.

ITEM 5 | Other Information |
Status of New York Property
On October 24, 2017, we entered into an amended Purchase and Sale Agreement with Greg DiPaolos Pro Am Golf, LLC (DiPaolo), under which we agreed to purchase certain improved property located in Westfield, New York from DiPaolo for a total purchase price of Eight Hundred Thousand Dollars ($800,000). Under the terms of the agreement, we paid a Ten Thousand Dollar ($10,000) deposit on October 26, 2017, with the remaining purchase price to be paid on or before the date closing date, which was originally scheduled for February 1, 2018. On February 19, 2018, we entered into a Second Addendum to the Purchase and Sale Agreement extending the closing date to May 1, 2018 in exchange for payment of $8,750. On May 1, 2018, we entered into a Fourth Addendum and a Fifth Addendum to agreement amending the Closing Date under the Agreement to August 1, 2018, in exchange for our payment of $50,000 as a non-refundable deposit to be applied against the purchase price when the property sale is completed and $10,000 for maintenance, tree removal and other grounds keeping in order to prepare the golf course for the 2018 season. The property is approximately 43 acres and has unlimited water extraction rights from the State of New York. We had planned to use this property as our inroads to the New York hemp and infused beverage markets in the future. Since the property was in foreclosure it was put up for auction, which occurred on July 1, 2019. At the auction, we were the winning bidder with a bid of $597,000. Our prior deposit payment of $120,000 was credited towards the purchase price, and the remaining $477,000, was finally due on November 30, 2019, after several extensions (which cost us total of $40,000 to obtain). We were not able to meet that deadline, but in January 2020 we worked out an additional extension with the bank. Under the terms of the new agreement, we still owe approximately $392,000 to acquire the property. We have agreed to pay that amount in installment payments of $10,000 per month for six months beginning February 2020, with a balloon payment of approximately $332,000 due on or before August 3, 2020. These payments are in addition to the approximately $420,000 in payments we had already made. We made the six $10,000 monthly payments but were not able to pay the balloon payment by the August 3, 2020 deadline, but on July 31, 2020 we worked out an additional extension with the bank. Under the terms of that agreement, we paid $10,000 in exchange for an additional extension and we owed approximately $332,000 to acquire the property. We agreed to pay that amount in installment payments of $10,000 per month for six months beginning September 2020, with a balloon payment of approximately $272,000 due on or before February 1, 2021. We made the six $10,000 monthly payments but were not able to pay the balloon payment by the February 1, 2021 deadline, but on January 18, 2021 we worked out an additional extension with the bank. Under the terms of that agreement, we agreed to pay $10,000 per month beginning February 1, 2021 until November 1, 2021, and then pay a balloon payment of approximately $172,000 due on or before December 1, 2021. These payments are in addition to the approximately $540,000 in payments we have already made. We made the $10,000 payments due on February 1, 2021 – August 1, 2021. We need to raise funds in order to make the remaining scheduled payments.
