CAUTIONARY NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q other than statements of historical fact, including statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, business strategy and plans, and objectives for future operations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based upon our current assumptions, expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect on our business. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words: “may,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “approximately,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” “continue,” “ongoing,” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology, although the absence of these words does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking. This information may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from the future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements.

Factors that may cause or contribute actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, for example:

· regulatory limitations on our products and services;

· our ability to complete and integrate announced acquisitions;

· general industry and economic conditions;

· our ability to access adequate capital upon terms and conditions that are acceptable to us;

· volatility in credit and market conditions;

· other risks and uncertainties related to the cannabis market and our business strategy.

We operate in very competitive and rapidly changing markets. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this Report may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements.

Stockholders and potential investors should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Although we believe that our plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by the forward-looking statements in this report are reasonable, we cannot assure stockholders and potential investors that these plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved.

These forward-looking statements represent our intentions, plans, expectations, assumptions and beliefs about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors. Many of those factors are outside of our control and could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by those forward-looking statements. Considering these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events described in the forward-looking statements might not occur or might occur to a different extent or at a different time than we have described. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning other matters addressed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Except to the extent required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events, a change in events, conditions, circumstances or assumptions underlying such statements, or otherwise.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Organization and Nature of Operations

Business Description – Business Activity

Medicine Man Technologies Inc. (the “Company”) incorporated in Nevada on March 20, 2014. On May 1, 2014, the Company entered into an exclusive technology license agreement with Medicine Man Denver, Inc., f/k/a Medicine Man Production Corporation, a Colorado corporation (“Medicine Man Denver”) whereby Medicine Man Denver granted it a license to use all of their proprietary processes they have developed, implemented and practiced at its cannabis facilities relating to the commercial growth, cultivation, marketing and distribution of medical marijuana and recreational marijuana pursuant to relevant state laws and the right to use and to license such information, including trade secrets, skills and experience (present and future) (the “Medicine Man Denver License Agreement”).

The Company commenced its business on May 1, 2014 and generated revenues from consulting activities for prospective clients interested in entering the cannabis industry as well as sponsoring seminars offered to the cannabis industry and other business endeavors related to its core competencies.

In 2019, due to the changes in Colorado law permitting outside investment, the Company made a strategic decision to move toward direct plant-touching operations. Following that decision by executive leadership, the Company issued binding term sheets to several Colorado acquisition targets across the value chain. It believes that these targets are high quality, and the Company’s successful acquisition of these potential targets would allow it to become one of the largest vertically integrated seed-to-sale operators in the United States cannabis industry. These term sheets were announced in several Current Reports on Form 8-K during 2019. If successfully completed, the Company, post-transactions, will be able to offer retail, cultivation and extraction services. Management believes that the current company combined with the acquisition targets in its Colorado “roll-up” strategy will have the potential to create a vertically integrated company, which would further enjoy a competitive advantage operating in the Colorado market against incumbent operators. In addition to the contemplated business-integration benefits, management believes the sharing of best practices amongst the Company and the acquisition targets will allow for improved operations, revenue enhancements and increased profitability. Scale may also afford the ability to create an integrated back office system, providing a differentiated technology backbone to support the Company’s operations and enhance its overall management and operating capabilities. There can be no assurance that any of the proposed acquisitions will be consummated.

On April 20, 2020, the Company rebranded and conducts its business under the trade name, Schwazze. The corporate name of the Company continues to be Medicine Man Technologies, Inc. Effective April 21, 2020, the Company commenced trading under the OTC ticker symbol SHWZ.

On April 20, 2020 the Company completed its first acquisition of a Colorado plant touching entity, acquiring Mesa Organics, Ltd (“Mesa”) and its subsidiaries. These four entities include a Manufacturing Infusing Products (MIP) facility and four dispensaries. All are located in Southeastern Colorado. These acquisitions are included in our Products segment reporting.

1. Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the quarters ending September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company primarily used revenues from its operation supplemented by cash to fund its operations.

Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand, deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date. The Company had $2,981,688 and $11,853,627 classified as cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, respectively. The Company anticipates it will need additional funds for the Star Buds acquisition and working capital and are exploring capital raising transactions in the form of equity and debt.

The Company maintains its cash balances with a high-credit-quality financial institutions. At times, such cash may be more than the insured limit of $250,000. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 respectively, the cash balance was $1,682,475 and $486,101 over the insured limit. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts, and management believes the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk on its cash and cash equivalents.

The following table depicts the composition of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019:

	September 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Deposits placed with banks	$	2,981,688	$	736,101

2. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Management’s Representation of Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted as allowed by such rules and regulations, and management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These consolidated financial statements include all of the adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary to a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2019 and 2018, as presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 30, 2020 with the SEC.

Basis of Presentation

These accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported therein. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be based upon amounts that differ from these estimates.

10

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net earnings and financial position.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company’s financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, note receivable, accounts payables and tenant deposits. The carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their fair value due to their short maturities. The carrying amount of the Company’s debt approximates fair value because the interest rates on these instruments approximate the interest rate on debt with similar terms available to us. The Company’s derivative liability was adjusted to fair market value at the end of each reporting period, using Level 3 inputs.

The following is the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1), significant other observable inputs (Level 2), and significant unobservable inputs (Level 3):

	September 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Level 1 – Marketable Securities Available-for-Sale – Recurring	$	527,575	$	406,774

Marketable Securities at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Level 1 position consists of an investment in equity securities held in Canada House Wellness Group, Inc. (CHV), a publicly-traded company whose securities are actively quoted on the Toronto Stock Exchange. At both September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company owned 17,650,540 shares of CHV common stock. The closing share price of CHV’s common stock on September 30, 2020 was CAD$0.040 per share.

11

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash and current assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these items. These fair value estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect these estimates. Available-for-sale securities are recorded at current market value as of the date of this report.

Accounts Receivable

The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business. Accounts receivable related to licensing and consulting revenues are recorded at the time the milestone result in the funds being due being achieved, services are delivered, and payment is reasonably assured. Licensing and consulting revenues are generally collected from 30 to 60 days after the invoice is sent.

The following table depicts the composition of our accounts receivable as of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019:

	September 30, 2020			December 31, 2019
Accounts receivable – trade	$	889,457		$	384,202
Accounts receivable – related party		91,990			72,658
Accounts receivable – litigation		3,063,968			3,063,968
Allowance for doubtful accounts		(77,245	)		(70,885	)
Total accounts receivable	$	3,968,170		$	3,449,943

The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on management’s assessment of the collectability of trade receivables. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the amount of the allowance. The Company makes judgments about the creditworthiness of each customer based on ongoing credit evaluations and monitors current economic trends that might impact the level of credit losses in the future. If the financial condition of the customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make payments, a specific allowance will be required. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $77,245 and $70,885, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, the Company recorded a bad debt expense of $28,074 and $0, respectively.

Notes Receivable

On July 17, 2018, the Company entered into an intellectual property license agreement with Abba Medix Corp. (AMC), a wholly owned subsidiary of publicly traded Canada House Wellness Group, Inc. (CHV). The Company agreed to provide a lending facility to AMC in CAD$125,000 increments of up to CAD$500,000. The lending facility is for a term of 36 months and bears interest at a rate of 2%. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the outstanding balance, including accrued interest, on the notes receivable with AMC totaled $245,485 and $241,711, respectively. The Company classified these loans as noncurrent notes receivable on its consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

12

On August 1, 2020, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release (the “Settlement Agreement”) with MedPharm Holdings, Inc. (“MedPharm”). Pursuant to the terms of the Settlement Agreement, the Company and MedPharm agreed that the amount of the settlement to be furnished to the Company by MedPharm shall be $767,695 in principal and $47,161 in accrued interest. The Company received a $100,000 cash payment from MedPharm on August 1, 2020. On September 4, 2020, Andrew Williams, a member of the MedPharm Board of Directors and the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer, returned 175,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to the Company, as equity consideration at a price of $1.90 per share, a mutually agreed upon price per share. These shares are held in treasury. The remaining outstanding principal and interest of $285,636 due and payable by MedPharm under the Settlement Agreement will be paid out in bi-weekly installments of product by scheduled deliveries through March 31, 2021.

Other Assets (Current and Non-Current)

Other assets at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were $382,601 and $529,416, respectively. As of September 30, 2020, this balance included $254,602 in prepaid expenses and $127,999 in security deposits. At December 31, 2019, other assets included $480,881 in prepaid expenses, $21,085 in interest receivable and $27,450 in security deposits. Prepaid expenses were primarily comprised of insurance premiums, membership dues, conferences and seminars, and other general and administrative costs.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the future economic benefit arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. The goodwill arising from the Company’s acquisitions is attributable to the value of the potential expanded market opportunity with new customers. Intangible assets have either an identifiable or indefinite useful life. Intangible assets with identifiable useful lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their economic or legal life, whichever is shorter. The Company’s amortizable intangible assets consist of licensing agreements, product licenses and registrations, and intellectual property or trade secrets. Their estimated useful lives range from 10 to 15 years.

Goodwill and indefinite-lived assets are not amortized but are subject to annual impairment testing unless circumstances dictate more frequent assessments. The Company performs an annual impairment assessment for goodwill during the fourth quarter of each year and more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of the asset may be less than the carrying amount. Goodwill impairment testing is a two-step process performed at the reporting unit level. Step one compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying amount. The fair value of the reporting unit is determined by considering both the income approach and market approaches. The fair values calculated under the income approach and market approaches are weighted based on circumstances surrounding the reporting unit. Under the income approach, the Company determines fair value based on estimated future cash flows of the reporting unit, which are discounted to the present value using discount factors that consider the timing and risk of cash flows. For the discount rate, the Company relies on the capital asset pricing model approach, which includes an assessment of the risk-free interest rate, the rate of return from publicly traded stocks, the Company’s risk relative to the overall market, the Company’s size and industry and other Company-specific risks. Other significant assumptions used in the income approach include the terminal value, growth rates, future capital expenditures and changes in future working capital requirements. The market approaches use key multiples from guideline businesses that are comparable and are traded on a public market. If the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount, there is no impairment. If the reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, then the second step must be completed to measure the amount of impairment, if any. Step two calculates the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible net assets of the reporting unit from the fair value of the reporting unit as calculated in step one. In this step, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the reporting unit’s assets and liabilities in a hypothetical purchase price allocation as if the reporting unit had been acquired on that date. If the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess.

Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental in nature and requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including revenue growth rates, strategic plans, and future market conditions, among others. There can be no assurance that the Company’s estimates and assumptions made for purposes of the goodwill impairment testing will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. Changes in assumptions and estimates could cause the Company to perform an impairment test prior to scheduled annual impairment tests.

The Company performed its annual fair value assessment at December 31, 2019, on its subsidiaries with material goodwill and intangible asset amounts on their respective balance sheets and determined that no impairment exists. No additional factors or circumstances existed at September 30, 2020 that would indicate impairment.

13

Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances have indicated that an asset may not be recoverable. The long-lived asset is grouped with other assets at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities. If the sum of the projected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the assets, the assets are written down to the estimated fair value.

The Company evaluated the recoverability of its long-lived assets on December 31, 2019 on its subsidiaries with material amounts on their respective balance sheets and determined that no impairment exists. No additional factors or circumstances existed at September 30, 2020 that would indicate impairment.

Accounts Payable

Accounts payable at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were $2,957,390 and $699,961, respectively and were comprised of trade payables for various purchases and services rendered during the ordinary course of business.

Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities

Accrued expenses and other liabilities at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were $1,426,315 and $1,091,204, respectively. At September 30, 2020, this was comprised of customer deposits of $72,435, accrued payroll of $841,969, and operating expenses of $511,911. At December 31, 2019, accrued expenses and other liabilities was comprised of customer deposits of $148,109, accrued payroll of $714,220, and operating expenses of $228,875.

Revenue Recognition and Related Allowances

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), on January 1, 2018. The Company recognizes revenues, upon delivery of goods to the customer – at which time the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied – at an amount that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods in accordance with the five step analysis outlined in Topic 606: (i) identify the contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) performance obligations are satisfied.

The Company’s revenue recognition policy is significant because the amount and timing of revenue is a key component of our results of operations. Certain criteria are required to be met in order to recognize revenue. If these criteria are not met, then the associated revenue is deferred until the criteria are met. When consideration is received in advance of the delivery of goods or services, a contract liability is recorded. Revenue contracts are identified when accepted from customers and represent a single performance obligation to sell the Company’s products to a customer.

The Company has three main revenue streams: product sales; licensing and consulting fees; and other operating revenues from seminars, reimbursements and other miscellaneous sources.

Product sales are recorded at the time that control of the products is transferred to customers. In evaluating the timing of the transfer of control of products to customers, the Company considers several indicators, including significant risks and rewards of products, its right to payment, and the legal title of the products. Based on the assessment of control indicators, sales are generally recognized when products are delivered to customers.

14

Revenue from licensing and consulting services is recognized when the obligations to the client are fulfilled which is determined when milestones in the contract are achieved and target harvest yields are exceeded. At September 30, 2020, the Company had $7,500 in deferred revenue.

Revenue from seminar fees is related to one-day seminars and is recognized as earned upon the completion of the seminar. The Company also recognizes expense reimbursement from clients as revenue for expenses incurred during certain jobs.

Costs of Goods and Services Sold

Costs of goods and services sold are comprised of related expenses incurred while supporting the implementation and sales of the Company’s products and services.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expense are comprised of all expenses not linked to the production or advertising of the Company’s services.

Advertising and Marketing Costs 

Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred and totaled $172,539 and $638,335 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, as compared to $212,506 and $340,995, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Stock Based Compensation

Stock compensation expense for stock options is recognized over the vesting period of the award or expensed immediately under ASC 718 and Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 96-18 when stock or options are awarded for previous or current service without further recourse.

Share-based expense paid to through direct stock grants is expensed as occurred. Since the Company’s stock has become publicly traded, the value is determined based on the number of shares issued and the trading value of the stock on the date of the transaction.

On June 20, 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07 which simplifies the accounting for share-based payments granted to nonemployees for goods and services. Under the ASU, most of the guidance on such payments to nonemployees would be aligned with the requirements for share-based payments granted to employees. Previously, share-based payment arrangements to nonemployees were accounted for under ASC 718, while nonemployee share-based payments issued for goods and services were accounted for under ASC 505-50. Before the amendment, the major difference for the Company (but not limited to) was the determination of measurement date, which generally is the date on which the measurement of equity classified share-based payments becomes fixed. Equity classified share-based payments for employees was fixed at the time of grant. Equity-classified nonemployee share-based payment awards are no longer measured at the earlier of the date which a commitment for performance by the counterparty is reached or the date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete. They are now measured at the grant date of the award, which is the same as share-based payments for employees. The Company adopted the requirements of the new rule as of January 1, 2019, the effective date of the new guidance.

The Company recognized $1,453,986 and $5,815,808 in expense for stock-based compensation from common stock options issued to employees during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, and $940,870 and $3,166,276 in expenses for stock-based compensation from the issuance of common stock to employees, officers, directors and/or contractors during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

15

Income Taxes

ASC 740, Income Taxes requires the use of the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

Right of Use Assets and Lease Liabilities

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The standard requires lessees to recognize almost all leases on the balance sheet as a Right-of-Use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability and requires leases to be classified as either an operating or a finance type lease. The standard excludes leases of intangible assets or inventory. The standard became effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2019. The Company adopted ASC 842 using the modified retrospective approach, by applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. Results and disclosure requirements for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2019 are presented under ASC 842, while prior period amounts have not been adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historical accounting under ASC 840. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the standard, which also allowed the Company to carry forward historical lease classifications. The Company also elected the practical expedient related to treating lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all equipment leases as well as electing a policy exclusion permitting leases with an original lease term of less than one year to be excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities.

Under ASC 842, the Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. For this purpose, the Company considers only payments that are fixed and determinable at the time of commencement. As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company estimated the incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The ROU asset also includes any lease payments made prior to commencement and is recorded net of any lease incentives received. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options.

Operating leases are included in operating lease Right-of-Use assets and operating lease liabilities, current and non-current, on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share

The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share”. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. These potential dilutive shares include 4,130,750 shares from vested stock options and 9,987,500 stock purchase warrants. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations except as noted below:

16

FASB ASU 2017-01, Clarifying the Definition of a Business (Topic 805) – In January 2017, the FASB issued 2017-01. The new guidance that changes the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluating when a set of transferred assets and activities is a business. The guidance requires an entity to evaluate if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets; if so, the set of transferred assets and activities is not a business. The guidance also requires a business to include at least one substantive process and narrows the definition of outputs by more closely aligning it with how outputs are described in ASC 606. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and for interim periods within those years. Adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740), which enhances and simplifies various aspects of the income tax accounting guidance, including requirements such as tax basis step-up in goodwill obtained in a transaction that is not a business combination, ownership changes in investments, and interim-period accounting for enacted changes in tax law. The amendment will be effective for public companies with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020; early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this amendment on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-02, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326) and Leases (Topic 842) - Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 119 and Update to SEC Section on Effective Date Related to Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which amends the effective date of the original pronouncement for smaller reporting companies. ASU 2016-13 and its amendments will be effective for the Company for interim and annual periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company believes the adoption will modify the way the Company analyzes financial instruments, but it does not anticipate a material impact on results of operations. The Company is in the process of determining the effects adoption will have on its consolidated financial statements.

4. Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and are comprised of the following:

	September 30, 2020			December 31, 2019
Furniture and fixtures	$	175,680		$	98,903
Leasehold improvements		90,326			40,953
Machinery and tools		1,934,666			34,000

Total property and equipment, net of depreciation	$	2,719,154		$	239,078

Depreciation on equipment is provided on a straight-line basis over its expected useful lives at the following annual rates.

17

Furniture and fixtures	3 years
Leasehold improvements	Lesser of the lease term or estimated useful life
Machinery and tools	3 years
Office equipment	3 years
Software	3-5 years

Depreciation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $226,358 and $317,332, respectively, compared to $15,265 and $40,881, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

5. Intangible Asset

Intangible assets at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were comprised of the following:

	September 30, 2020			December 31, 2019
License agreement	$	5,300		$	5,300
Product license and registration		57,300			57,300
Trade secret – intellectual property		32,500			32,500
Subtotal	$	95,100		$	95,100
Less: accumulated amortization		(24,771	)		(19,811	)
Total intangible assets, net of amortization	$	70,329		$	75,289

Amortization expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $1,665 and $4,960, respectively, compared to $1,463 and $4,888, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

6. Derivative Liability

In 2019, the Company entered into certain employment agreements with key officers that contained contingent consideration provisions based upon the achievement of certain market condition milestones. The Company determined that each of these vesting conditions represented derivative instruments.

On January 8, 2019, the Company granted the right to receive 500,000 shares of restricted common stock to an officer and director, which will vest at such time that the Company’s stock price appreciates to $8.00 per share with defined minimum average daily trading volume thresholds.

On April 23, 2019, the Company granted the right to receive 1,000,000 shares of restricted common stock to an officer and director, which will vest at such time that the Company’s stock price appreciates to $8.00 per share with defined minimum average daily trading volume thresholds. On February 25, 2020, the director resigned from his remaining positions with the Company and forfeited his right to the contingent consideration. As a result, the Company recorded a gain of $1,462,636 as a component of other income (expense), net on its financial statements.

18

On June 11, 2019, the Company granted the right to receive 1,000,000 shares of restricted common stock to an officer, which will vest at such time that the Company’s stock price appreciates to $8.00 per share with defined minimum average daily trading volume thresholds.

The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with the US GAAP accounting guidance under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging Activities. The Company estimated the fair value of these derivatives at the respective balance sheet dates using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based upon the following inputs: (i) stock price on the date of grant ranging between $1.32 - $3.75, (ii) the contractual term of the derivative instrument ranging between 2.25 - 3 years, (iii) a risk-free interest rate ranging between 1.56% - 2.57% and (iv) an expected volatility of the price of the underlying common stock ranging between 136% - 158%.

As of September 30, 2020, the fair value of these derivative liabilities is $782,896. The change in the fair value of derivative liabilities for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $(684,422), resulting in an aggregate unrealized loss on derivative liabilities. The change in the fair value of the derivative liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $(2,990,486), resulting in an aggregated unrealized loss on derivative liabilities.

7. Related Party Transactions

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company’s Chief Cultivation Officer, Joshua Haupt, who currently owns 20% of both Super Farm and De Best, was an Officer of the Company and therefore a related party. Effective December 4, 2019, he was no longer an Officer and therefore no longer a related party. As such, he is not included as a related party with respect to sales and accounts receivable to Super Farm or De Best during the period ended September 30, 2020.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company had sales from Medicine Man Denver totaling $484,930. There were no sales discounts during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had an accounts receivable balance with Medicine Man Denver totaling $79,520.

The purchase price accounting resulted in the Company valuing the investment as $5,141,537 of goodwill. The purchase price allocation is preliminary. The purchase price allocation will continue to be preliminary until a third-party valuation is finalized and the fair value and useful life of the assets acquired is determined. The amounts from the final valuation may significantly differ from the preliminary allocation.

The following table sets forth the changes in the carrying value of the Company’s goodwill at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

Balance, December 31, 2019	$	12,304,306

Balance, September 30, 2020	$	17,445,843

10. Leases

Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet at the time of lease commencement or modification of a right of use (“ROU”) operating lease asset and a lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. Lease costs are recognized in the income statement over the lease term on a straight-line basis. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.

20

The Company's leases consist of real estate leases for office, commercial retail, and storage spaces. The Company elected to combine the lease and related non-lease components for its operating leases.

The Company’s operating leases include options to extend or terminate the lease, which are not included in the determination of the ROU asset or lease liability unless reasonably certain to be exercised. The Company's operating leases have remaining lease terms of three to five years. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

As the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, we used an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The discount rate used in the computation is 6%.

11. Commitments and Contingencies

Binding Term Sheets to Acquire Certain Businesses

Over the past three years, the Company has supported legislation in Colorado to allow licensed cannabis companies in Colorado to trade their securities, provided they are reporting companies under the Exchange Act, as amended. HB19-1090 titled, “Publicly Licensed Marijuana Companies” was signed into law on May 29, 2019 and went into effect on November 1, 2019. The bill repeals the provision that prohibits publicly traded corporations from holding a marijuana license in Colorado.

Effective January 10, 2019, the Company entered into binding term sheets to acquire three cannabis and cannabis related companies, including the following:

· FutureVision 2020, LLC and FutureVision Ltd., Inc. dba Medicine Man Denver (in the aggregate, “Medicine Man Denver”), owners of several licensed dispensaries and a cultivation facility in the Denver, Colorado metro area. It is also a leading cultivator, retailer and one of the best-known brands in the cannabis sector, winning over a dozen industry awards. Medicine Man Denver operates out of a 35,000 square foot cultivation operation and has four popular retail locations across the Denver metropolitan area. This term sheet expired on August 31, 2020 and the Company communicated it was terminating the term sheet on Friday, August 14, 2020;

· MedPharm Holdings, a company that develops and manages intellectual property related to the manufacture and formulation of products containing cannabinoid extracts. Management believes that this acquisition will bring world-class processing and pharmaceutical-grade products to the company. This term sheet expired on September 30, 2020 and was terminated accordingly; and

· MX LLC, the holder of the license that allow it to be a manufacturer of marijuana infused products in the Denver metro area. It also has a research license that has been issued by the state of Colorado and the local jurisdiction approval is in process. This term sheet expired on September 30, 2020 and was terminated accordingly.

The term sheets provide for the issuance of shares of common stock to the targets at an initial price per share of $1.32, with the final price to be determined based on the fair market valuation, which is subject to an independent valuation assessment. The Company’s former Chief Executive Officer, Andrew Williams, serves as an officer/manager and has an ownership interest in each of the targets above.

22

On August 15, 2019, the Company entered into a binding term sheet with Medically Correct, LLC (“Medically Correct”), an edible, extract and topical company, setting forth the terms of the acquisition by the Company of 100% of the capital stock and assets of Medically Correct. As consideration, the Company shall pay a total purchase price of $17,250,000 consisting of $3,450,000 cash and 4,677,967 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The 4,677,967 shares were determined by averaging the closing price of Company’s common stock for the five (5) days prior to August 8, 2019. On July 27, 2020, the Company terminated the binding term sheet with Medically Correct.

On September 5, 2019, the Company entered into a binding term sheet dated September 2, 2019 with RSFCG, LLC, RFSCA LLC, RFSCB, LLC, RFSCEV, LLC, RFSCED LLC, RFSCLV, LLC, RFSCG-1 LLC, and RFSCLVG LLC, which entities operate under the name Roots RX (“Roots RX”) pursuant to which the Company will purchase the membership interests of Roots RX. As consideration, the Company shall pay a total purchase price of $15,000,000 consisting of $9,750,000 in cash and 1,779,661 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The 1,779,661 shares were determined by averaging the closing price of Company’s common stock for the five (5) days prior to August 29, 2019.

On September 9, 2019, the Company entered into a binding term sheet with Canyon, LLC (“Canyon”) and It Brand Enterprises, LLC (“It Brand”) pursuant to which the Company will purchase 100% of the capital stock or assets of Canyon and certain assets of It Brand. As consideration, the Company shall pay a total purchase price of $5,130,000 consisting of (i) a cash component which in no case will be greater than $2,565,000, and (ii) an equity component, which will consist of shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, for the balance of the purchase price. The number of shares that make up the equity component will be determined by dividing the balance of the Purchase Price by the average closing price of Company’s common stock for the five (5) days prior to September 7, 2019. On October 9, 2020, the Company received notice that the binding term sheet was terminated.

The Company is authorized to issue two classes of shares, designated preferred stock and common stock.

Common Stock Issued as Payment for Acquisition

On April 20, 2020, the Company issued 2,554,750 shares of common stock valued at $4,167,253 for the acquisition of Mesa Organics, Ltd.

Warrants

The Company accounts for common stock purchase warrants in accordance with ASC 480, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. The Company estimates the fair value of warrants at date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. There is a moderate degree of subjectivity involved when using option pricing models to estimate the warrants, and the assumptions used in the Black Scholes option-pricing model are moderately judgmental.

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company issued 9,800,000 common stock purchase warrants to various accredited investors with an exercise price of $3.50 per share with an expiration date of three years from the date of issuance. On May 20, 2020, the Company issued an additional 187,500 common stock purchase warrants with an exercise price of $3.50 per share with an expiration date of three years from the date of issuance. The Company estimated the fair value of these warrants at date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following inputs: (i) stock price on the date of grant of $3.50, (ii) the contractual term of the warrant of 3 years, (iii) a risk-free interest rate ranging between 0.21% - 1.84% and (iv) an expected volatility of the price of the underlying common stock ranging between 158% - 173%.

The following table reflects the change in common stock purchase warrants for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. All stock warrants are exercisable for a period of three years from the date of issuance.

Balance as of January 1, 2020		9,800,000
Warrants exercised		–
Warrants forfeited		–
Warrants issued		187,500

14. Tax Provision

The company utilizes FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

27

The Company recorded no tax provision as of September 30, 2020. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had federal, state and local net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $12.3 million that are available to offset future liabilities for income taxes. The Company has generally established a valuation allowance against these carryforwards based on an assessment that it is more likely than not that these benefits will not be realized in future years. The federal and state net operating loss carryforwards expire in 2039.

15. Subsequent Events

In accordance with FASB ASC 855-10, Subsequent Events, the Company has analyzed its operations subsequent to September 30, 2020 to the date these consolidated financial statements were issued, and has determined that it does not have any material subsequent events to disclose in these consolidated financial statements, except as follows:

Termination of Proposed Acquisitions

On October 9, 2020 the Company terminated the term sheet with Canyon and It Brand, which term sheet had set forth the terms of the acquisition by the Company of 100% of the capital stock or assets of Canyon and certain assets of It Brand, respectively. The Canyon and It Brand Term Sheet was previously described in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on September 12, 2019, and incorporated herein by reference.

Proof of Funds

On June 5, 2020, the Company and SBUD, LLC entered into thirteen separate purchase agreements whereby the Purchaser agreed to purchase substantially all of the assets of the Star Buds Group from each individual Star Buds Company pursuant to the Agreements. The aggregate purchase price for the assets of the Star Buds Group is approximately $118 million. On November 5, 2020, the Company announced in the press release that Star Buds has acknowledged that the Company has met its proof of funds obligation under the Star Buds Asset Purchase Agreements, and the Company and Star Buds plans to work towards closing on a mutually acceptable timeframe.

Securities Purchase Agreement

On November 16, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with one investor to purchase shares of preferred stock of the Company in a private placement (the “Private Placement”). The Company is in negotiations with additional investors in connection with the Private Placement.  The Private Placement provides for an minimum offering of $72 million and a maximum offering of $105 million, and will be made in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D (“Regulation D”) as promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the 1933 Act. The Company will use the proceeds from the Private Placement for the acquisition of Star Buds.

Overview

We were incorporated on March 20, 2014, in the State of Nevada. On May 1, 2014, we entered into an exclusive Technology License Agreement with Medicine Man Denver, Inc., f/k/a Medicine Man Production Corporation, a Colorado corporation (“Medicine Man Denver”) whereby Medicine Man Denver granted us a license to use all of their proprietary processes they have developed, implemented and practiced at its cannabis facilities relating to the commercial growth, cultivation, marketing and distribution of medical marijuana and recreational marijuana pursuant to relevant state laws and the right to use and to license such information, including trade secrets, skills and experience (present and future) (the “Medicine Man Denver License Agreement”).

We commenced our business on May 1, 2014 and currently generate revenues derived from licensing agreements with cannabis related entities, as well as sponsoring seminars offered to the cannabis industry and other business endeavors related to our core competencies. As of the date of this report we have or have had 45 fee generating clients in 14 different states. In addition, we operate a division that sells grower supplies and a plant nutrient product line.

Recent Developments

In 2019, due to the changes in Colorado law permitting outside investment, we made a strategic decision to move toward direct plant-touching operations. Following that decision by our executive leadership, we issued binding term sheets to several Colorado acquisition targets across the value chain. We believe that these targets are high quality, and our successful acquisition of these potential targets would allow us to become one of the largest vertically integrated seed-to-sale operators in the United States cannabis industry. These term sheets were announced in several Current Reports on Form 8-K during 2019. If successfully completed, the Company, post-transactions, will be able to offer retail, cultivation and extraction services. We believe that the current company combined with the acquisition targets in our Colorado “roll-up” strategy will have the potential to create a vertically integrated company, which would further enjoy a competitive advantage operating in the Colorado market against incumbent operators. In addition to the contemplated business-integration benefits, we believe the sharing of best practices amongst the Company and the acquisition targets will allow for improved operations, revenue enhancements and increased profitability. Scale may also afford the ability to create an integrated back office system, providing a differentiated technology backbone to support our operations and enhance our overall management and operating capabilities. There can be no assurance that any of the proposed acquisitions will be consummated.

On April 20, 2020 the company completed its first acquisition of a Colorado plant touching entity, acquiring Mesa Organics LTD and its subsidiaries. These four entities include a Manufacturing Infusing Products. (MIP) facility and four dispensaries. All are located in Southeastern Colorado. These acquisitions are included in our Products segment reporting.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019

During the three months ended September 30, 2020, we generated revenues of $7,430,374 including (i) product sales of $7,409,719, and (ii) consulting and licensing services of $20,655 as compared with the three months ended September 30, 2019, where we generated revenues of $5,338,869 including (i) product sales of $2,760,196, (ii) consulting and licensing services of $2,563,478, of which includes $1,782,457 in revenue awarded in litigation, and (iii) other operating revenues of $15,195. Revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2020 increased by $2,091,505, or approximately 39%, over the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Cost of goods and services, consisting of expenses related to delivery of services and product procurement, was $4,648,910 during the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $2,786,244 during the comparable period in 2019. This increase was due to increased sales of product.

Operating expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2020, were $6,400,290, compared to operating expenses of $3,478,232 incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $2,922,058. This increase was due to increased selling, general and administrative expenses, professional service fees, salaries, benefits and related employment costs and non-cash, stock-based compensation.

As a result, we generated a net loss of $2,914,211 during the three months ended September 30, 2020 (or a loss of approximately $0.07 per share), compared to net loss of $1,827,978 (or income of approximately $0.05 per share) during the three months ended September 30, 2019.

This increase was due to increased selling, general and administrative expenses, professional service fees, salaries, benefits and related employment costs and non-cash, stock-based compensation.

As a result, we generated a net loss of $10,889,228 during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 (or a loss of approximately $0.26 per share), compared to net income of $13,562,446 during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 (or a loss of approximately $0.44 per share) during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Comparison of the liquidity and capital resources at September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019

The Company had $2,981,688 and $15,204,562 in cash on hand at September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, respectively. The ($12,222,874) change in cash on hand was due to the following cash flow activities.

Net cash used in operating activities was $6,303,992 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020, compared to cash used in operating activities of $4,679,562 for the similar period in 2019, an increase of $1,624,460.

Cash flows used in investing activities was $3,107,900 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020, compared to cash used of $639,365 for the similar period in 2019, an increase of $2,468,535. $2,609,500 of the cash was used in the acquisition of Mesa.

Cash flows provided by financing activities was $42,000 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020, compared to $20,201,726 for the similar period in 2019. The Company received proceeds of $19,600,000 from the private sale of our common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Comparison of the liquidity and capital resources at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019

The Company had $2,981,688 and $11,853,627 in cash on hand at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The ($8,871,939) change in cash on hand was due to the following cash flow activities.

Net cash used in operating activities was $6,303,992 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020, compared to cash used in operating activities of $7,553,965 during the year ended December 31, 2019, a decrease of $1,249,973.

Cash flows used in investing activities was $3,107,900 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020, compared to cash used of $1,116,756 during the year ended December 31, 2019, an increase of $1,991,144. $2,609,500 of the cash was used in the acquisition of Mesa.

Cash flows provided by financing activities was $42,000 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020, compared to $20,202,560 for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company received $375,000 in proceeds in connection with the exercise of common stock purchase warrants and stock, distributed $332,500 in proceeds for the return of common stock, and returned $500 in connection with cancellation of common stock during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020. The Company received proceeds of $19,600,000 from the private sale of our common stock during the year ended December 31, 2019.

The Company anticipates it will need additional funds for the Star Buds acquisition and working capital. It has signed a subscription agreement with one group and is in negotiations with additional investors and a debt provider which has allowed the Company to provide Star Buds with proof of funds needed for the acquisition. The Company plans to close the Star Buds acquisitions in the fourth quarter of 2020. Upon successfully completion of the Star Buds acquisitions, we believe we will generate positive cash flow from operations, and we expect that we will not need to raise additional capital to execute ongoing business operations. This is because the revenue generated from the fully integrated acquisitions will be sufficient to allow us to implement the current business operations.

However, if we are unable to close the Star Buds transaction in the fourth quarter of 2020 or at all, do not generate positive cash flow, or we identify an acquisition which we believe will significantly impact our business operations in a positive manner, or unforeseen developments occur, we will need to raise additional capital, in the form of debt, equity or both. At this time, we are unable to predict how much capital we will need. As of the date of this Report, we have a commitment from one investor to provide us with funding and we are in negotiations with additional investors and a potential debt provider to be able to complete the Star Buds acquisition, but there is no assurance we will meet the requirements to close and there can be no assurances we will obtain such funding in the future. We have, and will continue to, explore sources of financing to fund our business operations and acquisition strategy. Failure to obtain this additional financing may have a material negative impact on our ability to generate profits on a regular basis in the future.

31

Inflation

Although our operations are influenced by general economic conditions, we do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our results of operations during the three-month period ended September 30, 2020.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We had no off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Contractual Obligations

There were no substantial contractual obligations as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We continually evaluate the accounting policies and estimates used to prepare the condensed financial statements. The estimates are based on historical experience and assumptions believed to be reasonable under current facts and circumstances. Actual amounts and results could differ from these estimates made by management. Certain accounting policies that require significant management estimates and are deemed critical to our results of operations or financial position are discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 in the Critical Accounting Policies section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Not applicable

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is: (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or person performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the last quarterly period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

On June 7, 2019, the Company filed a complaint against ACC Industries Inc. and Building Management Company B, L.L.C., in state district court located in Clark County, Nevada, alleging, amongst other causes of action, breach of contract, conversion, and unjust enrichment. On July 17, 2019, the parties stipulated to stay the case in favor of arbitration. On February 25, 2020 ACC filed a counterclaim alleging breach of contract, which the Company believes is without merit. Arbitration has been set for November 2, 2020. The Company discovered new facts that lead it to believe that a related entity not previously named as a party to the arbitration should be brought in as a party to the arbitration. Based upon the new facts, the Company filed a motion to amend the complaint to add new claims and the related entity as a party. On September 1, 2020, the court ruled in favor of the Company and permitted the Company to amend the complaint to add the related entity. On September 1, 2020, the Company filed an amended complaint naming the related entity a party and added intentional misrepresentation, fraudulent inducement, civil conspiracy, aiding and abetting, successor liability and fraudulent concealment claims. The Company began arbitration proceedings on November 2, 2020.

On July 6, 2018, the Company filed a complaint in the Eight Judicial Court, Clark County, Nevada against Vegas Valley Growers (“VVG”). In the complaint, the Company alleges breach by VVG of the Technologies License Agreement dated April 27, 2017 between the parties and seeks general, special and punitive damages in the amount of $3,876,850. On August 28, 2018, VVG filed an Answer and Counterclaim against the Company. On August 2, 2019, a jury found in favor of the Company and awarded the Company damages totaling $2,773,321. In March 2020, VVG filed its opening appeal brief. The Company’s response brief was due on May 15, 2020. After VVG filed its opening brief in March 2020, the Company filed a Motion to Strike portions of the brief and record. Because a successful ruling on the Company’s motion may strike portions of VVG’s brief or require VVG to refile it, the Company asked the court for an extension of the deadline to file the Company’s answering brief until the court renders its decision on the motion, which VVG did not oppose. The Company will have 30 days to file its answering brief once the court enters an order on the Motion to Strike or 30 days from when VVG files an amended opening brief and record. On August 27, 2020, the court ordered VVG to supplement its brief and the record. The Company filed its answering brief on October 15, 2020. On October 27, 2020, the Company, in a joint request with VVG, filed a motion to extend its time to file its answering brief. The Company requested January 4, 2021 to file its Answer and VVG requested 30 days after the Answer to file the reply. The motion is pending with the Court. 

On March 6, 2020, the Company’s former Chief Operating Officer, Joe Puglise, issued an arbitration demand against the Company claiming breach of contract. While the Company believes it has meritorious defenses against the claim, the ultimate resolution of the matter, which is expected to occur within one year, could result in a loss of up to $3,500,000. The arbitration is scheduled to begin on January 25, 2021.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the risk factors identified below, also refer to the risk factors applicable to us identified in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2019 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2020.

Risks Related to Our Industry

Businesses involved in the cannabis industry, and investments in such businesses, are subject to a variety of laws and regulations related to money laundering, financial recordkeeping and proceeds of crimes.

Investments in the U.S. cannabis industry are subject to a variety of laws and regulations that involve money laundering, financial recordkeeping and proceeds of crime, including the BSA, as amended by the Patriot Act, other anti-money laundering laws, and any related or similar rules, regulations or guidelines, issued, administered or enforced by governmental authorities in the United States. In February 2014, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”) of the Treasury Department issued a memorandum (the “FinCEN Memo”) providing guidance to banks seeking to provide services to cannabis-related businesses. The FinCEN Memo outlines circumstances under which banks may provide services to cannabis-related businesses without risking prosecution for violation of U.S. federal money laundering laws. It refers to supplementary guidance that Deputy Attorney General Cole issued to U.S. federal prosecutors relating to the prosecution of U.S. money laundering offenses predicated on cannabis-related violations of the federal Controlled Substances Act and outlines extensive due diligence and reporting requirements, which most banks have viewed as onerous. The FinCEN Memo currently remains in place, but it is unclear at this time whether the current administration will continue to follow the guidelines of the FinCEN Memo. Such requirements could negatively affect our ability and the ability of our clients to establish and maintain banking connections.

33

We may be unable to protect our intellectual property rights.

Because the manufacture (growth), sale, possession and use of cannabis is illegal under federal law, cannabis-related businesses may have restricted intellectual property rights particularly with respect to obtaining trademarks and enforcing patents. If we are unable to register, or maintain, our trademarks or file for or enforce patents on any of our inventions, such an inability could materially affect our ability to protect our name and proprietary technologies. In addition, cannabis businesses may face court action by third parties under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (“RICO”). Our intellectual property rights could be impaired as a result of our cannabis-related business, and we could be named as a defendant in an action asserting a RICO violation.

We may be unable to seek the protection of the bankruptcy courts.

There is an argument that the federal bankruptcy courts cannot provide relief for parties who engage in cannabis or cannabis-related businesses. Recent bankruptcy rulings have denied bankruptcies for cannabis dispensaries upon the justification that businesses cannot violate federal law and then claim the benefits of federal bankruptcy for the same activity and upon the justification that courts cannot ask a bankruptcy trustee to take possession of, and distribute cannabis assets as such action would violate the federal Controlled Substances Act. Therefore, due to our cannabis-related business, we may not be able to seek the protection of the bankruptcy courts and this could materially affect our financial performance and/or our ability to obtain or maintain credit.

We are unable to deduct all of our business expenses.

Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code prohibits cannabis businesses from deducting their ordinary and necessary business expenses, forcing us to pay higher effective federal tax rates than similar companies in other industries. The effective tax rate on a cannabis business depends on how large its ratio of nondeductible expenses is to its total revenues. Therefore, our cannabis business may be less profitable than it could otherwise be.

Risks Related to our Common Stock

The market price for our Common Stock will be particularly volatile given our status as a relatively unknown company, with a limited operating history and lack of profits which could lead to wide fluctuations in our share price. You may be unable to sell your Common Stock at or above your purchase price, which may result in substantial losses to you.

While there is a market for our Common Stock, our price volatility in the future will be particularly volatile when compared to the shares of larger, more established companies that trade on a national securities exchange and have large public floats. The volatility in our share price will be attributable to a number of factors. First, our Common Stock will be, compared to the shares of such larger, more established companies, sporadically and thinly traded. As a consequence of this limited liquidity, the trading of relatively small quantities of shares by our stockholders may disproportionately influence the price of those shares in either direction. The price for our shares could decline precipitously in the event that a large number of shares of our Common Stock are sold on the market without commensurate demand. Secondly, we are a speculative or “risky” investment due to our limited operating history and lack of profits to date and uncertainty of future market acceptance for our potential products. As a consequence of this enhanced risk, more risk-adverse investors may, under the fear of losing all or most of their investment in the event of negative news or lack of progress, be more inclined to sell their shares on the market more quickly and at greater discounts than would be the case with the stock of a larger, more established company that trades on a national securities exchange and has a large public float. Many of these factors are beyond our control and may decrease the market price of our Common Stock, regardless of our operating performance. We cannot make any predictions or projections as to what the prevailing market price for our Common Stock will be at any time.

34

Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our Common Stock, which could depress the price of our Common Stock.

FINRA has adopted rules that require a broker-dealer to have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer before recommending an investment to a 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. Thus, 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 shares of Common Stock, have an adverse effect on the market for our shares of Common Stock, and thereby depress the price per share of Common Stock.

Our future results may vary significantly which may adversely affect the price of our Common Stock.

It is possible that our quarterly revenues and operating results may vary significantly in the future and that period-to-period comparisons of our revenues and operating results are not necessarily meaningful indicators of the future. You should not rely on the results of one quarter as an indication of our future performance. It is also possible that in some future quarters, our revenues and operating results will fall below our expectations or the expectations of market analysts and investors. If we do not meet these expectations, the price of our Common Stock may decline significantly.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

None.

Item 3. Defaults upon Senior Securities

On November 16, 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with one investor to purchase shares of preferred stock of the Company in a private placement (the “Private Placement”). The Company is in negotiations with additional investors in connection with the Private Placement.  The Private Placement provides for an minimum offering of $72 million and a maximum offering of $105 million, and will be made in reliance upon the exemption from securities registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D (“Regulation D”) as promulgated by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the 1933 Act. The Company will use the proceeds from the Private Placement for the acquisition of Star Buds.

The preceding description is a summary of the material terms of the Private Placement. Such summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the SPA, which is filed as an Exhibit 10.1 to this Quarterly Report and is hereby incorporated by reference.
