NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

AmeriCann, Inc. ("the Company", “we”, “our” or "the Issuer") was organized under the laws of the State of Delaware on June 25, 2010.

On January 17, 2014, a privately held limited liability company acquired approximately 93% of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock from several of the Company's shareholders, which resulted in a change in control of the Company.

The Company's business plan is to offer a comprehensive, turnkey package of services that includes consulting, design, construction and financing to approved and licensed marijuana operators throughout the United States. The Company's business plan is based on the anticipated growth of the regulated marijuana market in the United States.

The Company's activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties including failure to secure funding to properly expand its operations.

Basis of Presentation

The (a) condensed balance sheet as of September 30, 2015, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and (b) the unaudited condensed financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's Form 10-K filed with the SEC on January 13, 2016. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future quarters or for the full year. Notes to the condensed financial statements which substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for fiscal 2015 as reported in the Form 10-K have been omitted.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on net loss.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, to reduce complexity in accounting standards involving several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions, including (1) the income tax consequences, (2) classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and (3) classification on the statement of cash flows. The amendments will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and early adoption is permitted. Amendments related to the timing of when excess tax benefits are recognized, minimum statutory withholding requirements, forfeitures, and intrinsic value should be applied using a modified retrospective transition method, amendments related to the presentation of employee taxes paid on the statement of cash flows when an employer withholds shares to meet the minimum statutory withholding requirement should be applied retrospectively, amendments requiring recognition of excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies in the income statement and the practical expedient for estimating expected term should be applied prospectively, and amendments related to the presentation of excess tax benefits on the statement of cash flows can be applied using either a prospective transition method or a retrospective transition method. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these amendments on its financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations, to clarify the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations and address how an entity should assess whether it is the principal or the agent in contracts that include three or more parties. The effective date and transition requirements for these amendments are the same as the effective date and transition requirements of ASU 2014-09. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these amendments on its financial statements.

Table of Contents

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases: (Topic 842), to provide guidance on recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements, specifically differentiating between different types of leases. The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from all leases. The recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease by a lessee have not significantly changed from previous GAAP. There continues to be a differentiation between finance leases and operating leases. However, the principal difference from previous guidance is that the lease assets and lease liabilities arising from operating leases should be recognized in the balance sheet. The accounting applied by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under previous GAAP. The amendments will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and early adoption is permitted. In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The modified retrospective approach includes a number of optional practical expedients that entities may elect to apply. These practical expedients relate to the identification and classification of leases that commenced before the effective date, initial direct costs for leases that commenced before the effective date, and the ability to use hindsight in evaluating lessee options to extend or terminate a lease or to purchase the underlying asset. An entity that elects to apply the practical expedients will, in effect, continue to account for leases that commence before the effective date in accordance with previous GAAP unless the lease is modified, except that lessees are required to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all operating leases at each reporting date based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments that were tracked and disclosed under previous GAAP. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of these amendments on its financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09), which will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. As amended by the FASB in July 2015, the standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). The Company is currently evaluating the impact of its pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements and has not yet determined the method by which it will adopt the standard in 2018.

NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $4,379,624 and $3,694,167 at March 31, 2016 and September 30, 2015, respectively, and had a net loss of $685,457 for the six months ended March 31, 2016. These matters, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. While the Company is attempting to increase operations and generate additional revenues, the Company's cash position may not be significant enough to support the Company's daily operations. Management intends to raise additional funds through the sale of its securities. Further, the amount due from WGP of $1,185,641 (before an allowance of $463,084) may not be collectible and the agreement for the sale of land for $2,500,000 has been terminated.

Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate additional revenues provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to generate additional revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company's ability to further implement its business plan and generate additional revenues. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3. NOTES RECEIVABLE

4900 Jackson, LLC (Previously Nature’s Own). On June 23, 2014 the Company entered into a secured financing and consulting agreement with Nature's Own Wellness Center, Inc. ("Nature's Own"). Financing was provided in a series of tranches for the renovation of a 15,000 square foot warehouse into a cannabis growing and processing facility. The total amount of financing was $1,000,000, and accrued interest at 18% per annum. Monthly interest only payments were $15,000 due July 1 through December 1, 2014. Monthly principal and interest payments of approximately $50,000 began on December 1, 2014 through maturity. The note receivable was collateralized by substantially all of the assets of Nature's Own and was personally guaranteed by one of the majority owners of Nature's Own. Under the consulting agreement, the Company was to provide consulting services in exchange for fees of $10,000 per month through maturity.

Table of Contents

Effective January 1, 2015 the Company and Nature’s Own modified the loan and consulting agreements between the parties. The modification to the loan agreement eliminated required principal payments for January through May 2015 and increased the final principal payment due on December 1, 2016 to $182,531. The Company analyzed the modification to determine if the change in terms was a troubled debt restructuring. Based on ASC Subtopic 310-40, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructuring by Creditors, the Company determined that a concession was not made. In addition, the Company considered ASC Subtopic 470-50, Debt Modifications and Extinguishments, and determined that the modification was not an extinguishment and therefore, no gain or loss was recognized. The modification to the consulting agreement extended the term to May 31, 2017.

In early May 2015, Nature's Own's interest in the growing and processing facility was purchased by 4900 Jackson, LLC, which assumed Nature's Own obligations under the loan and consulting agreements. On May 20, 2015, the Company modified the loan and consulting agreements with 4900 Jackson, LLC. Pursuant to the modified loan agreement, 4900 Jackson, LLC made an accelerated principal payment to the Company of $300,000 in exchange for the Company reducing the interest rate from 18% to 12%, and the maturity date was extended to May 1, 2017. In addition, the Company received a payment of $35,000 from Nature’s Own during 2015. The Company analyzed the modifications to determine if the change in terms was a troubled debt restructuring. Based on ASC Subtopic 310-40, Receivables - Troubled Debt Restructuring by Creditors, the Company determined that a concession was not made as there was an exchange of an interest rate reduction for accelerated principal repayments. In addition, the Company considered ASC Subtopic 470-50, Debt Modifications and Extinguishments, and determined that the modification was not an extinguishment and therefore, no gain or loss was recognized. The proceeds of the loan will continue to be used to develop the cannabis growing and processing facility. On May 20, 2015, a modification was also made to the consulting agreement to reduce the monthly fee from $10,000 to $5,000 through May 31, 2017.

At March 31, 2016 and September 30, 2015, the balance of the note receivable was $402,071 and $586,305, respectively. Interest income was $13,481 and $43,234 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively; and $29,414 and $88,440 for the six months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Consulting fees earned were $15,000 and $50,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively; and $30,000 and $80,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

WGP. Beginning September 21, 2014, we entered into a series of agreements with Wellness Group Pharms LLC (“WGP’), an entity that was pursuing licenses to operate marijuana cultivation facilities under the Illinois Compassionate Use of Medical Cannabis Pilot Program Act. As amended on February 22, 2015, these agreements provided for the following:

●	We were to replace WGP as the purchasing party under an existing contract to acquire a 16.1 acre parcel in Anna, Illinois as WGP was to take the necessary legal steps to assign the right to acquire ownership to the property starting February 23, 2015. Subsequent to the amendment, WGP purchased the land. To date we have not received title to the land.
●	We were to construct on this parcel a marijuana cultivation facility (consisting of a 27,000 square foot warehouse and a total developable footprint of 285,000 square feet which would be built in future phases according to demand) in accordance with terms specified in WGP’s license application with the State of Illinois within six months of the award of the licenses on February 2, 2015. To date, payments of $332,357 had been made.
●	WGP was to lease and operate the facility from us at a base monthly rent of $6.00 per square foot plus 25% of gross monthly sales of cannabis and 20% of gross monthly sales of cannabis infused products. The term of the lease contract was 12 years commencing from the month in which both a final and enforceable occupancy certificate is issued for the facility, and WGP has been granted approval by the State of Illinois to commence production operations in the facility.
●	We were to provide working capital advances up to a maximum borrowing amount of $2,772,724, with such advances accruing interest at a rate of 18% per annum. No principal or interest payments were due until WGP had cash on hand of $250,000, but in any event all principal and interest is due December 31, 2017. As of March 31, 2016, advances of $673,294 had been made.

●	We were to receive consulting fees of $20,000 per month, with such unpaid amounts accruing interest at a rate of 18% per annum beginning on March 1, 2015 through the term of the 12 year lease. In fiscal 2015, $40,000 had been earned and recognized. There are no similar revenues for fiscal 2016.

Table of Contents

Between February 2015 and April 2015, both parties operated under this agreement. We made working capital advances totaling $673,294 (inclusive of the deposit of $100,000 made under the Initial WGP Agreements) and we recognized consulting revenues of $40,000. We also incurred construction costs totaling $332,357 to begin developing the facility in connection with its obligations under the amended agreement. However, WGP did not assign its rights to acquire the 16.1 acre parcel to us as required under the amended agreement. Instead, WGP acquired the property directly. We have notified WGP that we have fulfilled our obligations pursuant to our agreements with WGP but due to WGP's breach of contract, and repeated lack of good faith and fair dealing, the agreement was terminated. WGP has claimed that our construction costs were unauthorized. We dispute WGP’s claim. To date, there is no change in the dispute with WGP.

Included in Amounts due from WGP in our balance sheet at March 31, 2016 are working capital advances of $673,294, accrued consulting fees of $40,000, construction advances of $332,357 and accrued interest of $139,990 for a total of $1,185,641. In addition, an allowance for doubtful accounts of $463,084 has been recognized.

We have a formal security agreement covering $600,000 of the advances made to WGP (and related interest), whereby the indebtedness is secured by all real and personal property of WGP. We believe all other amounts owed by WGP are due and payable and that additional security interests are implied in the agreements. However, given the current dispute with WGP, we have established a provision for all amounts owed by WGP (including related interest) that are not covered by a formal security agreement. This provision is reflected as a separate component of operating expense within our accompanying statement of operations.

Interest income associated with the $673,294 advanced to WGP was $30,215 and $11,690 for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively; and $60,762 and $11,690 for the six months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

NOTE 4. LAND HELD FOR RESALE

On July 31, 2014, the Company closed on an all cash purchase of a five-acre parcel of land located at 4200 Monaco Street, Denver, Colorado. The total purchase price for the property was approximately $2,250,000. The property is currently zoned for cannabis cultivation and processing by the City and County of Denver.

On August 14, 2015 the Company signed an agreement to sell the five-acre parcel for a total purchase price of $2,500,000. The closing of the transaction was to take place on or before September 14, 2015. If the prospective buyer did not purchase the property, then, on or before September 15, 2015 the buyer was obligated to loan the Company $900,000, which bears interest at 12% per year and will be due and payable in six months.

On September 15, 2015 the Company and the buyer agreed to extend the closing date of the property to November 1, 2015. In connection with the extension of the closing date, the buyer and an unrelated third party loaned the Company $900,000. The Company used $650,000 to repay a loan which was secured by the property. (See Note 5).

Table of Contents

As this modification was incurred subsequent to March 31, 2016, the financial statements included herein do not reflect the financial impacts of this debt modification.

NOTE 6. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED PARTY NOTES PAYABLE

At March 31, 2016, we had an outstanding note payable of $1,910,349 to Strategic Capital Partners, an entity controlled by our Chief Financial Officer.

NOTE 7. LOSS PER SHARE

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share:

	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	March 31,						March 31,
	2016			2015			2016			2015

Net loss attributable to common stockholders	$	(296,041	)	$	(377,590	)	$	(685,457	)	$	(619,592	)

Basic weighted average outstanding shares of common stock		16,631,000			16,603,222			16,631,000			16,591,989
Dilutive effects of common share equivalents		-			-			-			-
Dilutive weighted average outstanding shares of common stock		16,631,000			16,603,222			16,631,000			16,591,989

Basic and diluted net loss per share of common stock	$	(0.02	)	$	(0.02	)	$	(0.04	)	$	(0.04	)

The Company has excluded 1,205,000 of stock options from the computation of diluted net loss per share because the effects are anti-dilutive.

NOTE 8. INCOME TAXES

The Company did not record any income tax expense or benefit for the three or six months ended March 31, 2016. The Company increased its valuation allowance and reduced its net deferred tax assets to zero. The Company's assessment of the realization of its deferred tax assets has not changed, and as a result the Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance for its net deferred assets as of March 31, 2016.

As of March 31, 2016, the Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits. There were no significant changes to the calculation since September 30, 2015.

NOTE 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTIGENCIES

Massachusetts Land Purchase. On January 14, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase a 52.6 acre parcel of undeveloped land in Freetown, Massachusetts. The property is located approximately 47 miles southeast of Boston. The Company plans to develop the property as the Massachusetts Medical Cannabis Center ("MMCC"). Plans for the MMCC may include the construction of sustainable greenhouse cultivation and processing facilities that will be leased or sold to Registered Marijuana Dispensaries under the Massachusetts Medical Marijuana Program. Additional plans for the MMCC may include a testing laboratory, a research facility, a training center, an infused product production facility and corporate offices.

The Company paid the seller a $100,000 deposit upon the signing of the agreement which will be applied toward the purchase price of $4,000,000 at the closing or returned at the option of the Company. On August 27, 2015, after addressing the site considerations, the agreement was amended to extend the closing date to October 30, 2015 to provide additional time for permitting. In connection with the amendment, the Company paid the seller an additional $100,000 which will be applied to the purchase price.

On October 23, 2015, the Company extended the closing date to December 29, 2015 with a payment to the seller of $100,000. The $100,000 paid to the seller will be applied to the purchase price of the property if the closing takes place.

On December 8, 2015, The Town of Freetown Planning Board unanimously approved the Company’s site plan application for the MMCC. The site plan application requested 977,000 square feet of infrastructure for medical marijuana cultivation, processing, testing and associated administration in Freetown's Industrial Park. On March 24, 2016, the Department of Public Health (the “DPH”) for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts approved the Company’s consulting and development agreements relating to the MMCC. Although the DPH has approved these agreements, the actual lease agreement with the first tenant for the MMCC has not been finalized or approved by the DPH.

The Company leases an automobile under an operating lease commencing October 4, 2014 for 39 months at $611 per month. At March 31, 2016, the future rental payments required under this lease are $3,668 for the remainder of fiscal 2016, $7,332 for fiscal 2017 and $1,834 for fiscal 2018.

Except as described above, the Company has no other non-cancelable lease commitments.

NOTE 11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On April 7, 2016, we signed agreements with Coastal Compassion Inc. (“CCI”). CCI is one of a limited number of non-profit organizations that has received a provisional or final registration to cultivate, process and sell medical cannabis by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health. CCI has agreed to become the initial tenant in our planned MMCC. Tim Keogh, our Chief Executive Officer, is a Board Member of CCI.

Pursuant to the agreements, we agreed to provide CCI with financing of up to $2.5 million for a five-year term at 18% interest per year for construction and working capital required for CCI’s approved dispensary and cultivation center in Fairhaven, MA. For a three- year period beginning April 1, 2016, we have agreed to consult with CCI in the design, construction and operation of the Fairhaven facility. CCI will pay us $10,000 each month for these consulting services. Although the DPH has approved our agreement with CCI relating to the development and lease terms of the MMCC, the actual lease agreement with CCI has not been finalized or approved by the DPH. We will need to secure significant capital to provide the financing to CCI.

On April 12, 2016, we signed agreements with AQUSCAN Delaware Corp. (“AQUSCAN”). AQUSCAN is one of eleven applicants for a vertically-integrated license to cultivate, process and sell medical cannabis in Delaware. The Delaware Division of Public Health is scheduled announce the application results in August of 2016 and award licenses for up to two new Registered Compassion Centers (“RCC”). AQUSCAN has agreed to become the sole tenant in our planned Delaware Medical Cannabis Center (“DMCC”) if a RCC license is awarded. We will build and own the facility.

The DMCC project is designed on 10 acres of unimproved land located in Garrison Oak Technology Park in Dover, DE. We have signed a Purchase and Sale Agreement for the property with the City of Dover that is contingent upon the award of a license.

In addition to building a state-of-the-art cultivation facility at the DMCC, we will purchase and renovate an existing 3,200 square foot building located in Dover as a secure, medical cannabis dispensary.

Additionally, we may provide AQUSCAN with financing of up to $750,000 for a five-year term at 18% interest per year for working capital associated with establishing and maintaining the RCC.

OVERVIEW

AmeriCann, Inc. develops, owns and supports advanced medical cannabis cultivation and processing facilities nationwide. Currently, we have a multi-market portfolio of over 1,000,000 square feet of sustainable cannabis production infrastructure in various stages of development which consists of 125,000 square feet of approved cultivation and processing infrastructure on the 5 acres located at 5280 Monaco St. in Denver, and site approval for 977,000 square feet of cultivation, processing and administration infrastructure at the Massachusetts Medical Cannabis Center (“MMCC”).

AmeriCann’s team includes board members, consultants, engineers and architects who specialize in traditional horticulture, lean manufacturing, medical research, facility construction, regulatory compliance, security, marijuana cultivation and genetics, extraction processes, and infused product development.

To support local businesses that seek to serve cannabis patients in their communities we initiated the AmeriCann Preferred Partner Program. The initial step in becoming a Preferred Partner involves an application on our website. Based on the initial inquiry, we determine if the location, market, type of project and economics support additional due diligence. Currently, we have one Preferred Partner in Colorado, which is 4900 Jackson, LLC. Through this program we provide an essential set of resources including advance cultivation facilities, access to a team of experts and in certain cases, capital for our partner’s businesses. This support is designed to assist our Preferred Partners in newly regulated markets. In addition, AmeriCann’s team actively participated in winning cannabis licenses in competitive application processes throughout the country including Massachusetts and Illinois.

AmeriCann plans to lease facilities to its Preferred Partners that will be designed with AmeriCann’s propriety cultivation and processing system called “Cannopy.” Cannopy uniquely combines experience from traditional horticulture, lean manufacturing, regulatory compliance and cannabis cultivation to create facilities and procedures. Cannopy includes automation throughout the production life-cycle, customized workflow processes, monitoring and controls, and top-line security systems. Cannopy empowers Preferred Partners to consistently produce medical marijuana for patients at a lower cost in an efficient, compliant manner. AmeriCann provides initial and on-going training, policies, practices and procedures to operate the state-of-the-art facilities.

The expanding cannabis industry requires extensive real estate to meet the growing needs of medical marijuana patients. AmeriCann utilizes a proven strategy for identifying, acquiring and developing real estate specifically suited for cannabis operations. AmeriCann assists its Preferred Partners with the identification, design, permitting, acquisition, development and operation of scalable infrastructure to cultivate and to dispense medical marijuana in regulated markets.

As an early market participant, we leverage our leadership and competitive strengths in a formative industry to increase market share as the cannabis industry expands.

We currently have one financing and consulting agreement with a licensed Colorado cannabis dispensary owner and grower (“4900 Jackson, LLC”). Under this agreement, we are earning consulting fees and interest income. We recently terminated our agreement with WGP – see Recent Developments below. We are also the owner of a five-acre parcel of land located in north central Denver, Colorado, which is currently zoned for cannabis cultivation and processing by the City and County of Denver.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Monaco Street Property. See Note 5 to the financial statements included as part of this report for information concerning the modification of the loan secured by our property in Denver, Colorado.

●	We were to replace WGP as the purchasing party under an existing contract to acquire a 16.1 acre parcel in Anna, Illinois as WGP was to take the necessary legal steps to assign the right to acquire ownership to the property starting February 23, 2015. Subsequent to the amendment, WGP purchased the land. To date we have not received title to the land.
●	We were to construct on this parcel a marijuana cultivation facility (consisting of a 27,000 square foot warehouse and a total developable footprint of 285,000 square feet which would be built in future phases according to demand) in accordance with terms specified in WGP’s license application with the State of Illinois within six months of the award of the licenses on February 2, 2015. To date, payments of $332,357 had been made.
●	WGP was to lease and operate the facility from us at a base monthly rent of $6.00 per square foot plus 25% of gross monthly sales of cannabis and 20% of gross monthly sales of cannabis infused products. The term of the lease contract was 12 years commencing from the month in which both a final and enforceable occupancy certificate is issued for the facility, and WGP has been granted approval by the State of Illinois to commence production operations in the facility.
●	We were to provide working capital advances up to a maximum borrowing amount of $2,772,724, with such advances accruing interest at a rate of 18% per annum. No principal or interest payments were due until WGP had cash on hand of $250,000, but in any event all principal and interest is due December 31, 2017. As of September 30, 2015, advances of $673,294 had been made.

●	We were to receive consulting fees of $20,000 per month, with such unpaid amounts accruing interest at a rate of 18% per annum beginning on March 1, 2015 through the term of the 12 year lease. In fiscal 2015, $40,000 was earned and recognized. There are no similar revenues for fiscal 2016.

We have a formal security agreement covering $600,000 of the advances made to WGP (and related interest), whereby the indebtedness is secured by all real and personal property of WGP. We believe all other amounts owed by WGP are due and payable and that additional security interests are implied in the agreements. However, given the current dispute with WGP, we have established a provision for all amounts owed by WGP (including related interest) that are not covered by a formal security agreement. As of March 31, 2016, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $463,084. This provision is reflected as a separate component of operating expense within our accompanying statement of operations.

Table of Contents

We have not filed any formal litigation but have provided legal notice that our loans to WGP are immediately due and payable. By contract, our process for resolving any disputes with WGP is to be resolved via binding arbitration.

MMCC. On January 14, 2015, we entered into an agreement to purchase a 52.6 acre parcel of undeveloped land in Freetown, Massachusetts. The property is located approximately 47 miles southeast of Boston. We plan to develop the property as the Massachusetts Medical Cannabis Center "MMCC". Plans for the MMCC may include the construction of sustainable greenhouse cultivation and processing facilities that will be leased or sold to Registered Marijuana Dispensaries under the Massachusetts Medical Marijuana Program. Additional plans for the MMCC may include a testing laboratory, a research facility, a training center, an infused product production facility and corporate offices. We paid the seller $100,000 upon the signing of the agreement which amount will be applied toward the purchase price of $4,000,000 at the closing. On May 6, 2015, to address site considerations before finalizing the planned development, the agreement was amended to extend the closing date to September 1, 2015. On August 27, 2015, after addressing the site considerations, the agreement was amended to extend the closing date to October 30, 2015 to provide additional time for permitting with a payment of $100,000.

On October 23, 2015, we made an additional payment to the seller of $100,000, which will be applied to the purchase price if the closing occurs.

On December 8, 2015, The Town of Freetown Planning Board unanimously approved our site plan application for the MMCC. The site plan application requested 977,000 square feet of infrastructure for medical marijuana cultivation, processing, testing and associated administration in Freetown's Industrial Park. On March 24, 2016, the Department of Public Health (the “DPH”) for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts approved our consulting and development agreements relating to the MMCC. Although the DPH has approved these agreements, the actual lease agreement with Coastal Compassion, Inc., the first tenant for the MMCC, has not been finalized or approved by the DPH. We will need to secure significant capital to acquire the property and to develop the first phase of the MMCC.

On December 22, 2015, we and the seller amended the agreement to extend the closing date to the earlier of 5 business days following our receipt of the DPH Approval, or February 29, 2016. As consideration for the extension of the closing date, we agreed to increase the purchase price for the property to $4,100,000 and paid the seller a non-refundable fee of $100,000 which will be applied to the purchase price if the closing occurs. On February 29, 2016, the Company and the seller amended the agreement to extend the closing date. As consideration for the extension of the closing date, the Company agreed to increase the purchase price for the property to $4,150,000 and paid the seller $50,000, which will be applied to the purchase price if the closing occurs.

The Company has paid $525,000 that will be applied to the purchase price if the closing occurs.

AGREEMENTS WITH COASTAL COMPASSION

Table of Contents

AGREEMENTS WITH AQUSCAN

Additionally, we may provide AQUSCAN with financing of up to $750,000 for a five-year term at 18% interest per year for working capital associated with establishing and maintaining the RCC.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

There were no changes in our significant accounting policies and estimates during the six months ended March 31, 2016 from those set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2015 filed on January 13, 2016.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Total Revenues

During the three and six months ended March 31, 2016 we generated $15,000 and $30,000 in revenue, respectively. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2015, we generated $50,000 and $80,000 in revenue, respectively. The reduction in revenues reflects our amendment to reduce our consulting fees for 4900 Jackson, LLC (and its predecessor) from $10,000 per month to $5,000 per month.

Advertising and Marketing Expenses

Advertising and marketing expenses were approximately $250 and $2,300 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2016, respectively, as compared to approximately $3,000 and $6,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2015, respectively. The decrease is commensurate with the decrease in consulting revenues.

Professional Fees

Professional fees were approximately $135,000 and $353,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2016, respectively, as compared to approximately $191,000 and $274,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2015, respectively. The decrease in professional fees for the three months ended March 31, 2016, is attributable primarily to the decrease in legal expenses associated with our operations.. The increase in professional fees for the six months ended March 31, 2016, is primarily due to the planning, design, and permitting costs associated with the Massachusetts Medical Cannabis Center.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses were approximately $162,000 and $338,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2016, respectively, as compared to approximately $274,000 and $496,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2015, respectively. The decrease is attributable primarily to a decrease in stock based compensation and option expense as many of our stock-based awards were granted in 2014 and were subject to short vesting periods. This decrease is partially offset by and other general and administrative expenses as we continue to develop our business and expand our operations.

Table of Contents

Interest Income

Interest income was approximately $45,000 and $94,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2016, respectively, as compared to approximately $55,000 and $100,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2015, respectively. The decrease is attributable to decreases in amounts owed from our clients.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was approximately $56,000 and $110,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2016, respectively, as compared to approximately $14,000 and $24,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2015, respectively. The increase is attributable to the financing of our recent investing and operating activities primarily with debt.

Net Operating Loss

We had a net loss of approximately $(296,000) and $(685,000) for the three and six months ended March 31, 2016, respectively, as compared to a net loss of approximately $(378,000) and $(620,000) for the three and six months ended March 31, 2015, respectively. The decrease in net loss is attributable to changes in revenues, operating expenses and interest income and expense, each of which is described above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Sources of Liquidity

As of March 31, 2016, we had borrowed $1,910,349 from Strategic Capital Partners, LLC, a Company controlled by Benjamin J. Barton, one of our officers and directors. The loan is unsecured and bears interest at 5% per year. Interest is payable on March 31 and September 30 of each year. The loan, plus all unpaid principal and interest, is due on December 31, 2016.

As of March 31, 2016, we had borrowed $900,000 from a third party. The loan bears interest at 12% and was due March 15, 2016. As of March 31, 2016, the Company was in default on the loan. On April 6, 2016, the loan was modified as discussed in Note 5 and Note 11 of the Notes to our Condensed Financial Statements.

On February 1, 2016, we entered into an agreement with an unrelated third party which provides us with borrowing capacity of $200,000. As of March 31, 2016, we had borrowed $116,185 against this credit line. The loan bears interest at 8% per year, and all unpaid principal and interest is due on December 31, 2016. We may repay the loan at any time without penalty. As of March 31, 2016, accrued interest on this loan was $467.

Analysis of Cash Flows

During the six months ended March 31, 2016, our net cash flows used in operations were approximately $410,000 as compared to net cash flows used in operations of approximately $341,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2015. This was primarily due to an increase in our net loss and a reduction in stock based compensation during the six months ended March 31, 2016.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our President and Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective for the same reasons that our internal control over financial reporting were not adequate.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

As indicated in our Form 10-K filed on January 13, 2016, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective during the 2015 fiscal year at the reasonable assurance level, as a result of a material weakness primarily related to a lack of a sufficient number of personnel with appropriate training and experience in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP.

We are currently in the process of evaluating the steps necessary to remediate this material weakness.

Change in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarterly period ended March 31, 2016 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We believe that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within any company have been detected.
