NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2020
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1 – THE COMPANY
Acacia Diversified Holdings, Inc. (“Acacia” or the “Company”), a Texas corporation, had four wholly-owned subsidiaries, MariJ Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“MariJ Pharma”), a Florida corporation, Canna-Cures Research & Development Center, Inc. (“Canna-Cures”), a Florida corporation, Eufloria Medical of Tennessee, Inc. (“EMT”), a company incorporated in the state of Tennessee, and Medahub Operations Group, Inc. and Medahub, Inc., technology companies (collectively “Medahub”) incorporated in the state of Florida.
The Company’s primary source of revenue was from the extraction of medicinal hemp oil, from a non-psychoactive cannabis plant. All extraction services were provided in states where such services were deemed legal. The Company's subsidiary EMT was invited to be part of the hemp pilot program in Tennessee which provided the Company the license to grow, manufacture, and dispense organic hemp oil in Tennessee. The Company also had a retail store in Tennessee selling hemp infused products. Revenue generated from retail sales was not material to the Company based on its operating model.
On March 26, 2020, the Company announced in a current report on Form 8-k that its operations and business have experienced disruption due to the unprecedented conditions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic spreading throughout the United States and the world and thus the Company’s business operations have been disrupted and it was unable to timely prepare the Company’s financial statements for the 2019 fiscal year. As such, the Company would be making use of the 45-day grace period provided by the SEC’s Order and available filing extension to delay filing of its Annual Report. Around this time, the Company also suspended its operations, laid off all of its employees and ceased to generate any revenue.
As a result of the insufficient cash flows from the operations of our subsidiaries as well as the disruption of our business from the COVID-19 pandemic, as of March 31, 2020, the Company discontinued the operations of all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The financial results for these subsidiaries have been presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
On March 31, 2020, Richard K. Pertile resigned his position as Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer for the Company. On the same date, the Company filed a current report on Form 8-k to announce that it issued in escrow 1,475,000 shares of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) to ORCIM Financial Holdings, LLC (“OFH”). Each share of the Preferred Stock has fifty (50) votes per share and may be converted into fifty (50) $0.001 par value common shares. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had 43,290,324 shares of its common stock issued and outstanding. There were no other shares of any capital stock outstanding except for the common stock and Preferred Stock. As the result of the issuance of the Preferred Stock and, upon satisfaction of the terms of the Acquisition Agreement, OFH would have voting control over the Company with 73,750,000 votes on all matters submitted to stockholders for a vote. The parties agree that the change in control would not be effective until all conditions of the Acquisition Agreement are satisfied, including, but not limited to, the acquisition of funding by OFH to satisfy certain debts of the Company and the resignation of its existing board of directors. On May 20, 2020, the Company’s existing board of directors resigned.
Pursuant to the terms of the Acquisition Agreement, the parties agree that the Company will transfer to Richard K. Pertile (“Pertile”), our former CEO, all the issued and outstanding shares of each of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, and Pertile agreed to forgive all amounts due him or his related parties from the Company. The forgiveness of debt was approximately $910,000 and the value of the net assets of the subsidiaries was approximately $267,000 (net of $240,000 of liabilities). The Acquisition Agreement also specified which accounts payable, accrued liabilities and convertible notes would remain as liabilities of the Company. OFH has agreed to the payment of the following liabilities:
Professional fees |
$ | 110,000 | ||
Accounts payable |
28,050 | |||
Accrued compensation to our former CEO |
187,000 | |||
Accrued compensation to our former COO |
91,000 | |||
Convertible notes |
250,000 | |||
$ | 666,050 |
As of the date of the issuance of the consolidated financial statements, the Company settled professional fees in the amount of $110,000 and other liabilities remained outstanding.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2020
(UNAUDITED)
OFH is a limited liability company domiciled in Maryland. OFH is controlled by Mr. Jeffery D. Bearden, who owns 100% of the membership interests of OFH. The Preferred Stock was acquired by OFH in exchange for its agreement to assume the debt of the Company in the approximate amount of $666,000. The funds to satisfy the outstanding debt of the Company were acquired by OFH through a loan from a hedge fund entity known as Geneva Capital.
On March 31, 2020, Mr. Larnell C. Simpson, Jr., was appointed as a director for Acacia Diversified Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”). Mr. Simpson also was appointed to the position of Vice President.
On May 20, 2020, directors Danny Gibbs, Neil B. Gholson and Dr. Richard Paula each resigned their respective positions as a director for Acacia Diversified Holdings, Inc.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
Based on operating losses and negative cash from operations and the discontinued operations of the Company’s operations, substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan in this regard is to find new operations to enter into and focus on building profitable operations. To finance operations while it finds new operations, the Company will continue financing activity such as entering into loan agreements and issuing new shares of the Company’s common stock. Therefore, the Company expects to continue to incur operating losses and to incur professional fees to maintain its reporting company status. Until such time that the Company is able to generate revenue and become profitable or find new sources of capital, the Company will find it difficult to continue to meet its obligations as they come due. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts to raise capital, or if it were successful in raising capital, that it would be successful in meeting its business plans. Management’s plans include attempting to raise funds from the public through an equity offering of the Company’s common stock and identifying and developing new opportunities. However, the recent COVID-19 pandemic has presented unprecedented challenges to businesses and the investing landscape around the world. Therefore, there can be no assurance that Management’s plans will be successful.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred losses for all periods presented and has a substantial accumulated deficit. As of June 30, 2020, these factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and reflect all adjustments, which consist solely of normal recurring adjustments, needed to fairly present the financial results for these periods. The consolidated financial statements and notes thereto are presented as prescribed by Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 and notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 26, 2020. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year. In the opinion of management, all adjustments have been made, which consist only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of (a) the results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, (b) the financial position at June 30, 2020 and (c) cash flows for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.
As a result of the insufficient cash flows from the operations of our subsidiaries as well as the disruption of our business from the COVID-19 pandemic, as of March 31, 2020, the Company discontinued the operations of all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The financial results for these subsidiaries have been presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. For the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, all gains and losses on disposition, impairment charges and disposal costs, along with the sales, costs and expenses and income taxes attributable to discontinued operations, have been aggregated in a single caption entitled “Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax” in our consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Acacia Diversified Holdings, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, MariJ Pharmaceuticals, Inc, Canna-Cures Research & Development Center, Inc., Eufloria Medical of Tennessee, Inc., Medahub Operations Group, Inc. and Medahub, Inc., as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2020. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. As a result of the insufficient cash flows from the operations of our subsidiaries as well as the disruption of our business from the COVID-19 pandemic, as of March 31, 2020, the Company discontinued the operations of all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The financial results for these subsidiaries have been presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, all gains and losses on disposition, impairment charges and disposal costs, along with the sales, costs and expenses and income taxes attributable to discontinued operations, have been aggregated in a single caption entitled “Income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of tax” in our consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The actual results may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.
RECLASSIFICATION
Certain accounts in the prior period's financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform with the presentation in the current year financial statements.
LEASES
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which aims to make leasing activities more transparent and comparable and requires substantially all leases be recognized by lessees on their balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability, including leases currently accounted for as operating leases. The new guidelines are contained in Accounting Standards Codification ASC Topic 842 - Leases ("ASC 842"). This ASU is effective for all interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company applied this standard retrospectively on January 1, 2019 through a cumulative effect adjustment recognized as of January 1, 2019. In applying this standard, the Company elects to apply all practical expedients to not reassess the followings:
|
1. |
Whether a pre-existing contract is or contain a lease |
|
2. |
Whether a pre-existing lease should be classified as an operating or finance lease, and |
|
3. |
Whether the initial direct costs capitalized for a pre-existing lease under the previously lease accounting standard ASC Topic 840 qualify for capitalization |
In addition, in the applying ASC 842, the Company does not elect the hindsight practical expedient.
As a result, the Company recorded its right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities on its balance sheet beginning January 1, 2019. As of March 31, 2020, the Company discontinued the operations of its subsidiaries and presented the right-of-use assets and related liabilities and results of operations as part of discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements.

Short term lease
The Company recognizes its office lease in Florida with an initial term of 12 months or less as a short-term lease. Lease payments associated with short-term lease are expensed as incurred in operating lease expense and are not included in our calculation of right-of-use assets or lease liabilities. Operating lease expense related to short-term lease was $0 and $2,899 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $4,199 and $5,794 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. This short-term lease was terminated in July 2020.
REVENUE RECOGNITION
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which replaces numerous requirements in U.S. GAAP, including industry specific requirements, and provides a single revenue recognition model for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2018.
The core principle of the new standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This requires companies to identify contractual performance obligations and determine whether revenue should be recognized at a point in time or over time, based on when control of goods and services transfers to a customer. The Company’s revenues from extraction activities and from retail sales are recognized at a point in time.
The ASU requires the use of a new five-step model to recognize revenue from customer contracts. The five-step model requires that the Company (i) identify the contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant future reversal will not occur, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligation. The application of the five-step model to the revenue streams compared to the prior guidance did not result in significant changes in the way the Company records its revenues.
The two permitted transition methods under the new standard are the full retrospective method, in which case the standard would be applied to each prior reporting period presented and the cumulative effect of applying the standard would be recognized at the earliest period shown, or the modified retrospective method, in which case the cumulative effect of applying the standard would be recognized at the date of initial application to accumulated deficit. Additionally, incremental footnote disclosures are required to present the 2018 revenues under the prior standard. Under the modified retrospective method, an entity may also elect to apply the standard to either (i) all contracts as of January 1, 2018, or (ii) only to contracts that are not completed as of January 1, 2018. The Company elected to adopt this guidance using the modified retrospective method at January 1, 2018 which did not result in an adjustment to accumulated deficit. Additionally, upon adoption, the Company evaluated its revenue recognition policy for all revenue streams within the scope of the ASU under previous standards and using the five-step model under the new guidance and confirmed that there were no differences in the pattern of revenue recognition.
As of March 31, 2020, the Company discontinued the operations of its subsidiaries and presented the results of operations of the subsidiaries as part of discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements.
ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS
The Company’s accounts receivable represents amounts due from customers for extraction services performed. Allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable is estimated based on the aging of the accounts receivable and management estimate of uncollectible amounts. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company did not provide for an allowance for doubtful accounts. As of March 31, 2020, the Company discontinued the operations of its subsidiaries and presented its accounts receivable as asset of discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements.

INVENTORIES
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the average cost method. The Company’s inventory consists of raw materials and finished goods. Cost of inventory includes cost of ingredients, labor, quality control and all other costs incurred to bring our inventories to condition ready to be sold. As of March 31, 2020, the Company discontinued the operations of its subsidiaries and presented its inventories as assets of discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements.
DEFERRED FARM EXPENSE
The Company's subsidiary EMT grows hemp plants in both its indoor and outdoor facility. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 905 - Agriculture, all direct and indirect costs of growing the plants are accumulated until the time of harvest. These deferred cost cannot exceed the realizable value of the oil processed from the hemp plants. Crop costs such as soil preparation incurred before planting are deferred and allocated to the growing crop. Deferred farm expense is included as inventory costs. As of March 31, 2020, the Company discontinued the operations of its subsidiaries and presented its deferred farm expense as asset of discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements.
DEBT DISCOUNT
The Company incurred debt discount related to the issuance of convertible promissory notes, as described in Note 6. The discount was recognized in its entirety as interest expense rather than amortized over the life of the convertible promissory note. The immediate recognition did not yield materially different result.
DEBT ISSUANCE COSTS
The Company incurred direct costs associated with the issuance of convertible promissory notes, as described in Note 6. The Company recognized these costs as interest expense.
STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under Accounting Standards Codification 718 - Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 requires that all stock-based compensation be recognized as expense in the financial statements and that such cost be measured at the fair value of the award at the grant date and recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services (requisite service period). An additional requirement of ASC 718 is that estimated forfeitures be considered in determining compensation expense. Estimating forfeitures did not have a material impact on the determination of compensation expense during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.
The Company accounts for stock based awards based on the fair market value of the instrument using a 10-day volume weighted adjusted price (VWAP) and accounts for stock options issued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and utilizing certain assumptions including the followings:
Risk-free interest rate – This is the yield on U.S. Treasury Securities posted at the date of grant (or date of modification) having a term equal to the expected life of the option. An increase in the risk-free interest rate will increase compensation expense.
Expected life—years – This is the period of time over which the options granted are expected to remain outstanding. Options granted by the Company had a maximum term of ten years. An increase in the expected life will increase compensation expense.
Expected volatility – Actual changes in the market value of stock are used to calculate the volatility assumption. An increase in the expected volatility will increase compensation expense.
Dividend yield – This is the annual rate of dividends per share over the exercise price of the option. An increase in the dividend yield will decrease compensation expense. The Company does not currently pay dividends and has no immediate plans to do so in the near future.

(UNAUDITED)
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification 505-50, Equity – Based Payments to Non-Employees. Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The value of the common stock is measured at the earlier of (i) the date at which a firm commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached or (ii) the date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the board of directors approved the following issuances of the Company’s restricted common stock to consultants, employees, and directors for services rendered:
|
1. |
2,000 shares to a consultant for services rendered, valued at $44. |
|
2. |
250,000 shares to the Company's board of directors for services rendered, valued at $5,451. |
|
3. |
40,000 shares issued to employees from the employee stock plan, valued at $6,996. |
4. |
20,000 shares issued to an employee for services rendered, valued at $436. |
FAIR VALUE ESTIMATES – The Company measures assets and liabilities it acquires at fair value in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 820 – Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”). The objective of ASC 820 is to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and to expand disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 specifies a valuation hierarchy based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable.
Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions. These two types of inputs have created the following fair value hierarchy:
● |
Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets; |
● |
Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and |
● |
Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. |
This hierarchy requires the Company to minimize the use of unobservable inputs and to use observable market data, if available, when estimating fair value. The Company has liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis due to the issuance of convertible note payable as described in Note 6.
NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE - In accordance with ASC 260 - Earnings Per Share, the basic income per common share is computed by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect per share amounts that would have resulted if diluted potential common stock had been converted to common stock. No dilutive potential common shares were included in the computation of diluted net income per share for all periods presented because their impact was anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had 20,000 options outstanding, 1,475,000 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock and $264,300 of outstanding convertible notes payable which were excluded from the computation of net income per share because they are anti-dilutive for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had 50,000 options outstanding and $124,800 of outstanding convertible notes payable which were excluded from the computation of net income per share because they are anti-dilutive for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Finance lease
The board of directors approved for the Company to enter into a lease to lease this property from the Company's former CEO, effective June 1, 2018. The term of the lease was for one year with an automatic renewal term of one year. The lease also contained an option for the Company to purchase the property from the Company's former CEO. The lease required the Company to pay all expenses related to the acquisition and operation of the property, including but not limited to the Company's former CEO's personal incremental borrowing costs, repairs and maintenance, real estate taxes, licenses and permits, utilities, etc.
In applying ASC 842 on adoption date, the Company considered the followings:
|
1. |
The lease is with a related party of the Company. |
|
2. |
Although the initial lease term is for one year, the Company is reasonably certain to acquire the property from the related party. |
|
3. |
Contrary to leases with fixed lease payments, this lease requires the Company to pay all expenses related to the acquisition and operations of the property which are variable. Although the Company can exclude variable lease payments in applying ASC 842, the lease provides the necessary cash flows for the related party to service his debt. Therefore, the Company estimates future incremental borrowing costs to be incurred by the related party when measuring the initial finance lease liability. This amounts to approximately $1,600 per month. |
|
4. |
The related party's debt term was 15 years at a borrowing rate of 5.99% |
|
5. |
The Company considered the most objective measure of the right-of-use asset to be the purchase price paid by the related party for the property. The purchase price is then allocated among land and improvement and the Company amortizes the improvement over the estimated useful life of 10 years. |

NOTE 10 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued, and determined that there were no other material events to disclose, other than the followings:
Subsequent to June 30, 2020, the holder of our convertible notes converted $20,000 of principle balance of Note 4 in the amount of into 1,801,802 shares of the Company’s common stock. The remaining balance of Note 4 is $50,000.
NOTE 11 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
We regularly monitor our compliance with applicable financial reporting standards and review new pronouncements and drafts thereof that are relevant to us. As a result of new standards, changes to existing standards and changes in their interpretation, we might be required to change our accounting policies, particularly concerning revenue recognition, the capitalized incremental costs to obtain a customer contract and lease accounting, to alter our operational policies and to implement new or enhance existing systems so that they reflect new or amended financial reporting standards, or to restate our published financial statements. Such changes may have an adverse effect on our business, financial position, and operating results, or cause an adverse deviation from our revenue and operating profit target, which may negatively impact our financial results.
Accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company's present or future consolidated financial statements, other than the followings.
The Security and Exchange Commission ("SEC") recently amended its rules to require an analysis of changes in stockholders’ equity in the financial statements included in quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. The analysis, which can be presented as a note or separate statement, is required for the current and comparative quarter and year-to-date interim periods. The amended rules will become effective 30 days after they are published in the Federal Register. The SEC's transition guidance states that the amendments are effective for all filings made on or after the effective date; however, it also states the SEC staff would not object if a filer’s first presentation of the changes in stockholders’ equity was included in its Form 10-Q for the quarter that begins after the effective date of the amendments. As such, the Company presented an analysis of changes in stockholders' deficit as a separate statement in this Form 10-Q.
Except as noted above and in our Form 10-K, the Company’s management does not believe that recent codified pronouncements by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) (including its EITF), the AICPA or the SEC will have a material impact on the Company’s current or future consolidated financial statements.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Forward-Looking Information
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that involve known and unknown risks, significant uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed, or implied, by those forward-looking statements. You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of the words such as “expects”, “anticipates”, “intends”, “plans”, “believes”, “seeks”, “estimates”, “may”, “will”, “should”, “could”, “predicts”, “potential”, “proposed”, or “continue” or the negative of those terms. These statements are only predictions. In evaluating these statements, you should consider various factors which may cause our actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the exceptions reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Therefore, actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements due to numerous factors, including, but not limited to, availability of financing for operations, successful performance of operations, impact of competition and other risks detailed below as well as those discussed elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and from time to time in the Company’s Securities and Exchange Commission filings and reports. In addition, general economic and market conditions and growth rates could affect such statements. We undertake no obligation to revise or update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason.
General
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the Company most recently completed fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required in annual financial statements, but rather are prepared in accordance with recommendations for interim financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting policies and methods as those used by the Company in the annual audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Discussion on the Company’s Operations and Recent Event
Acacia Diversified Holdings, Inc. (“Acacia” or the “Company”), a Texas corporation, had four wholly-owned subsidiaries, MariJ Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“MariJ Pharma”), a Florida corporation, Canna-Cures Research & Development Center, Inc. (“Canna-Cures”), a Florida corporation, Eufloria Medical of Tennessee, Inc. (“EMT”), a company incorporated in the state of Tennessee, and Medahub Operations Group, Inc. and Medahub, Inc., technology companies (collectively “Medahub”) incorporated in the state of Florida.
The Company’s primary source of revenue was from the extraction of medicinal hemp oil, from a non-psychoactive cannabis plant. All extraction services were provided in states where such services were deemed legal. The Company's subsidiary EMT was invited to be part of the hemp pilot program in Tennessee which provided the Company the license to grow, manufacture, and dispense organic hemp oil in Tennessee. The Company also had a retail store in Tennessee selling hemp infused products. Revenue generated from retail sales was not material to the Company based on its operating model.
On March 26, 2020, the Company announced in a current report on Form 8-k that its operations and business have experienced disruption due to the unprecedented conditions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic spreading throughout the United States and the world and thus the Company’s business operations have been disrupted and it was unable to timely review and prepare the Company’s financial statements for the 2019 fiscal year. As such, the Company would be making use of the 45-day grace period provided by the SEC’s Order and available filing extension to delay filing of its Annual Report. Around this time, the Company also suspended its operations, laid off all of its employees and ceased to generate any revenue.
As a result of the insufficient cash flows from the operations of our subsidiaries as well as the disruption of our business from the COVID-19 pandemic, as of March 31, 2020, the Company discontinued the operations of all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The financial results for these subsidiaries have been presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
On March 31, 2020, Richard K. Pertile resigned his position as Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer for the Company. On the same date, the Company filed a current report on Form 8-k to announce that it issued in escrow 1,475,000 shares of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) to ORCIM Financial Holdings, LLC (“OFH”). Each share of the Preferred Stock has fifty (50) votes per share and may be converted into fifty (50) $0.001 par value common shares. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had 43,290,324 shares of its common stock issued and outstanding. There were no other shares of any capital stock outstanding except for the common stock and Preferred Stock. As the result of the issuance of the Preferred Stock and, upon satisfaction of the terms of the Acquisition Agreement, OFH would have voting control over the Company with 73,750,000 votes on all matters submitted to stockholders for a vote. The parties agree that the change in control would not be effective until all conditions of the Acquisition Agreement are satisfied, including, but not limited to, the acquisition of funding by OFH to satisfy certain debts of the Company and the resignation of its existing board of directors. On May 20, 2020, the Company’s existing board of directors resigned.
Pursuant to the terms of the Acquisition Agreement, the parties agree that the Company will transfer to Richard K. Pertile (“Pertile”), our former CEO, all the issued and outstanding shares of each of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries and Pertile agreed to forgive all amounts due him or his related parties from the Company. The forgiveness of debt was approximately $910,000 and the value of the net assets of the subsidiaries was approximately $267,000 (net of $240,000 of liabilities). The Acquisition Agreement also specified which accounts payable, accrued liabilities and convertible notes would remain as liabilities of the Company. OFH has agreed to the payment of the followings:
Professional fees |
$ | 110,000 | ||
Accounts payable |
28,050 | |||
Accrued compensation to our former CEO |
187,000 | |||
Accrued compensation to our former COO |
91,000 | |||
Convertible notes |
250,000 | |||
$ | 666,050 |
As of the date of the issuance of the consolidated financial statements, the Company settled professional fees in the amount of $110,000 and other liabilities remained outstanding.
OFH is a limited liability company domiciled in Maryland. OFH is controlled by Mr. Jeffery D. Bearden, who owns 100% of the membership interests of OFH. The Preferred Stock was acquired by OFH in exchange for its agreement to assume the debt of the Company in the approximate amount of $666,000. The funds to satisfy the outstanding debt of the Company were acquired by OFH through a loan from a hedge fund entity known as Geneva Capital.
On March 31, 2020, Mr. Larnell C. Simpson, Jr., was appointed as a director for Acacia Diversified Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”). Mr. Simpson also was appointed to the position of Vice President.
On May 20, 2020, directors Danny Gibbs, Neil B. Gholson and Dr. Richard Paula each resigned their respective positions as a director for Acacia Diversified Holdings, Inc.
Operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019:
Continuing Operations
For the three months ended June 30, 2019, selling, general and administrative expenses were $174,110, compared to $24,906 during the three months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $149,204 or 86%. The decrease in these expenses is a result of the Company winding down its operations and laid off its workforce.
During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company incurred interest expense of $25,544, compared to $19,255 for the three months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $6,289, or 25%. Interest expense decreased because a related party settled certain outstanding balances of his notes through issuance of the Company’s common stock, therefore, reducing the overall balance of the notes during the current period.
During the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized $214,308 of derivative expense, compared to $79,894 derivative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $134,414, or 63%. The increase in the amount of outstanding convertible notes payable with variable conversion feature that gave rise to derivative liability, coupled with the reduction in our share price during the current period gave rise to the decrease of the derivative expense.
As a result of the changes described above, the Company incurred a net loss from continuing operations of $413,962 for the three months ended June 30, 2019, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $124,055 for the three months ended June 30, 2020, the loss decreased by $289,907, or 70%.
Based on operating losses and negative cash from operations and the discontinued operations of the Company’s operations, substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan in this regard is to find new operations to enter into and focus on building profitable operations. To finance operations while it finds new operations, the Company will continue financing activity such as entering into loan agreements and issuing new shares of the Company’s common stock. Therefore, the Company expects to continue to incur operating losses and to incur professional fees to maintain its reporting company status. Until such time that the Company is able to generate revenue and become profitable or find new sources of capital, the Company will find it difficult to continue to meet its obligations as they come due. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its efforts to raise capital, or if it were successful in raising capital, that it would be successful in meeting its business plans. Management’s plans include attempting to raise funds from the public through an equity offering of the Company’s common stock and identifying and developing new opportunities. However, the recent COVID-19 pandemic has presented unprecedented challenges to businesses and the investing landscape around the world. Therefore, there can be no assurance that Management’s plans will be successful.
Discontinued Operations
For the three months ended June 30, 2019, the Company’s subsidiaries generated revenues of $140,724 from operations and incurred costs of goods sold of $169,413. As a result, the Company’s subsidiaries gross loss was $28,689.
For the three months ended June 30, 2019, selling, general and administrative expenses were $68,369. The Company’s subsidiaries also incurred interest expense of $2,613 and earned other income of $3,719.
As a result of the changes in revenues, costs and expenses, the Company’s subsidiaries incurred net loss from discontinued operations of $95,952 for the three months ended June 30, 2019.
The Company discontinued its subsidiaries operations on March 31, 2020. Therefore, there was no operations to report for the three months ended June 30, 2020.
Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019:
Continuing Operations
For the six months ended June 30, 2019, selling, general and administrative expenses were $378,885, compared to $191,070 during the six months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $187,815 or 50%. The decrease in these expenses is primarily attributable to the Company winding down its operations and laid off its workforce during the current period.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company incurred interest expense of $46,306, compared to $40,755 for the six months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $5,551, or 12%. Interest expense decreased because a related party settled certain outstanding balances of his notes through issuance of the Company’s common stock, therefore, reducing the overall balance of the notes during the current period.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company recognized $187,128 of derivative expense, compared to $42,512 of derivative income for the six months ended June 30, 2020, an increase of $229,640, or 123%. The increase in the amount of outstanding convertible notes payable with variable conversion feature that gave rise to derivative liability, coupled with the reduction in our share price during the current period gave rise to derivative income and its increase.
As a result of the changes described above, the Company incurred a net loss from continuing operations of $612,319 for the six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $189,313 for the six months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease in the loss of $423,006, or 69%.
Based on operating losses and negative cash from operations and the discontinued operations of the Company’s operations, substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan in this regard is to find new operations to enter into and focus on building profitable operations. To finance operations while it finds new operations, the Company will continue financing activity such as entering into loan agreements and issuing new shares of the Company’s common stock.

However, the recent COVID-19 pandemic has presented unprecedented challenges to businesses and the investing landscape around the world. Therefore, there can be no assurance that Management’s plans will be successful.
Discontinued Operations
For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company’s subsidiaries generated revenues of $1,622 from operations as compared to $304,229 for the six months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $302,607, or 99%. The decrease is a result of the Company winding down of its subsidiaries’ operations.
For the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company’s subsidiaries incurred costs of goods sold of $110,103, compared to $254,540 for the six months ended June 30, 209, a decrease of $144,437, or 57%. As a result of winding down its operations, the subsidiaries incurred minimal costs related to production but continued to employ a workforce until it laid off its workers. During the current period, the subsidiaries also wrote down its inventory to its net realizable value.
As a result of the changes in revenues and costs of good sold above, the Company’s subsidiaries incurred a gross loss of $108,481 during the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to a gross profit of $49,689 during the six months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $158,170, or 318%.
For the six months ended June 30, 2020, selling, general and administrative expenses were $28,309, compared to $145,855 for the six months ended June 30, 2019, a decrease of $117,546, or 81%. The decrease is due to the subsidiaries winding down its operations and laying off its workforce.
As a result of the changes in revenues, costs and expenses, the Company’s subsidiaries incurred net loss from discontinued operations of $140,353 for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to a net loss from discontinued operations of $95,620 for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s cash position at June 30, 2020 decreased by $2,195 to $421, as compared to a balance of $2,616, as of December 31, 2019. The net decrease in cash for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily attributable to cash used by operating activities from increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses.
As of June 30, 2020, the Company had negative working capital of $658,848 compared to negative working capital of $1,475,211 at December 31, 2019, an increase of $816,363, attributable primarily to disposing its subsidiaries’ assets and liabilities from discontinued operations during the current period.
Net cash used in operating activities of $96,161 during the six months ended June 30, 2020, was lower compared to the prior period of $286,745, primarily due to the wind down of the subsidiaries’ operations and an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses during the current period.
Net cash provided by financing activities of $49,928 during the six months ended June 30, 2020, decreased by $158,272 compared to $208,200 during the six months ended June 30, 2019. In the current period, as the Company’s share price was decreasing, the Company turned to its related parties to generate cash flows from issuance of notes payable to related parties. In the prior period, the Company was able to generate cash flows through sale of its common stock and issuance of convertible notes payable.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company issued shares of its common stock to settle $107,050 of principle and accrued interest of its convertible notes payable and the related derivative liability of $101,763. The Company also issued a convertible note payable to settle accounts payable with certain vendors and issued Series B Convertible Preferred Stock valued at $1,475 as a result of a change in control.

The Company has incurred losses from continuing operations for all periods presented and has a substantial accumulated deficit. As of June 30, 2020, these factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Financial Condition
The Company’s total assets at June 30, 2020 was $4,755, compared to total assets at December 31, 2019 of $654,237, a decrease of $649,482, or 99%. As a result of discontinuing its subsidiaries operations, the Company reclassified $507,774 and $646,445 of the subsidiaries total assets as assets of discontinued operations on March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and disposed of them during the three months ended June 30, 2020.
Total liabilities at June 30, 2020 consisted of current liabilities of $663,603 and derivative liability of $237,055. Total liabilities at December 31, 2019 consisted of current liabilities of $1,611,529 and long-term liabilities of $556,446, a decrease of $1,267,317, or 58%. As a result of discontinuing its subsidiaries operations, the Company reclassified $240,828 and $335,463 of the subsidiaries liabilities as liabilities of discontinued operations on March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, and disposed of them during the three months ended June 30, 2020.
The change in the Company’s financial condition is a result of discontinuing and disposing its subsidiaries operations in the six months ended June 30, 2020. The Company continues to incur professional fees in order to maintain its reporting company status. As a result of these changes, the Company’s cash position of its continuing operations decreased from $2,616 on December 31, 2019 to $421 on June 30, 2020.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have made no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
We are a Smaller Reporting Company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2020. Based upon such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of June 30, 2020, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. The controls were determined to be ineffective due to the lack of segregation of duties. In January 2017, the Company hired a part-time financial controller to assist with technical accounting issues and the preparation of the filings. However, until the Company begins generating sufficient revenues, it is unable to remediate the weakness. Despite the existence of material weaknesses, management believes the financial information presented herein is materially correct and fairly presents the financial position and operating results of the six months ended June 30, 2020, in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
No change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2020, that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
None.
The Company is a Smaller Reporting Company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and is not required to provide the information under this item.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company issue 12,897,956 shares of its restricted common stock as follows:
|
1. |
2,000 shares to a consultant for services rendered, valued at $44. |
|
2. |
250,000 shares to the Company's board of directors for services rendered, valued at $5,451. |
|
3. |
40,000 shares issued to employees from the employee stock plan, valued at $6,996. |
4. |
20,000 shares issued to an employee for services rendered, valued at $436. |
|
5. |
12,585,956 shares issued to the convertible notes holder who elected to convert principle and accrued interest of $107,050 and extinguish $101,763 of derivative liability, into the Company's common stock. |
The shares of our common stock were issued pursuant to an exemption from registration in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. These shares of our common stock qualified for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 since the issuance of shares by us did not involve a public offering. The offering was not a “public offering” as defined in Section 4(a)(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of shares offered. We did not undertake an offering in which we sold a high number of shares to a high number of investors. In addition, these shareholders had necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(a)(2) since they agreed to receive share certificates bearing a legend stating that such shares are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the 1933 Act. This restriction ensures that these shares would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a “public offering.” All shareholders are “sophisticated investors” and are business acquaintances of our officers and directors. Based on an analysis of the above factors, we believe we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 for this transaction.
Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities
None.
Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
Not applicable.
None.
