NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
November 30, 2020
Note 1. Organization and Description of Business
We are a research and development company primarily focused on entering a wide array of cannabis, hemp and related market sectors. Our primary objective is to create and commercialize engineered technologies delivering hemp extracts and cannabinoids to the human body. We also invest, or provide managerial services, in specialized areas of the regulated hemp and cannabis industries.
Cannabis Global, Inc. is located at 520 S. Grand Avenue, Suite 320, Los Angeles, California 90071. Our telephone number is (310) 986-4929 and our website is www.cannabisglobalinc.com. Our shares of Common Stock are quoted on the OTC Markets Pink Tier, operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc., under the ticker symbol “CBGL.”
We incorporated in Nevada in 2005 under the name MultiChannel Technologies Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of Octillion Corporation, a development stage technology company focused on the identification, acquisition and development of emerging solar energy and solar related technologies, and related products having the potential for commercialization. In April, 2005, we changed our name to MicroChannel Technologies, Inc., and in June, 2008, began trading on the OTC Markets under the trading symbol “MCTC.” Our business focused on research and development of a patented combination of physical, chemical and biological cues at the “cellular” level to facilitate peripheral nerve regeneration.
In August, 2011, we ceased operations and attempted to identify, locate, and if warranted, acquire new commercial opportunities. On June 27, 2018, we changed domiciles from the State of Nevada to the State of Delaware and thereafter reorganized under the Delaware Holding Company Statute (Delaware General Corporation Law Section 251(g). On or about July 12, 2018, we formed two subsidiaries for the purpose of effecting the reorganization. We incorporated MCTC Holdings, Inc. and MCTC Holdings Inc. incorporated MicroChannel Corp. We then effected a merger involving the three constituent entities, and under the terms of the merger we were merged into MicroChannel Corp., with MicroChannel Corp. surviving and our separate corporate existence ceasing. Following the merger, MCTC Holdings, Inc. became the surviving publicly traded issuer and all of our assets and liabilities were merged into MCTC Holdings, Inc.’s wholly owned subsidiary MicroChannel Corp. Our shareholders became the shareholders of MCTC Holdings, Inc. on a one for one basis.
On May 25, 2019, Lauderdale Holdings, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, and beneficial owner 70.7% of our issued and outstanding common stock, sold 130,000,000 common shares, to Mr. Robert Hymers, Mr. Edward Manolos and Mr. Dan Nguyen, all of whom were previously unaffiliated parties of the Company. Each individual purchased 43,333,333 common shares for $108,333,333 or an aggregate of $325,000. These series of transactions constituted a change in control.
On August 9, 2019, the Company filed a DBA in California registering the operating name Cannabis Global. On July 1, 2019, the Company entered into a 100% business acquisition with Action Nutraceuticals, Inc., a company owned by our CEO, Arman Tabatabaei in exchange for $1,000 (see “Related Party Transactions”).
7 |
On February 20, 2020, the Company entered into a material definitive agreement with Lelantos Biotech, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“Lelantos”), and its owners Ma Helen M. Am Is, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“Helen M.”), East West Pharma Group, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“East West”), and New Horizons Laboratory Services, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“New Horizons”). In exchange for intellectual properties owned by Lelantos, the Company agreed to issue 400,000 shares of common stock and convertible promissory notes to Lelantos and its owners. On June 15, 2020, the Company and Lelantos entered into a modification agreement cancelling the Company's obligation to issue 400,000 shares of common stock and the convertible promissory notes. The Company and Lelantos agreed to a purchase price of five hundred thousand dollars ($500,000), payable by the issuance of a promissory note. The aggregate unpaid principal amount of the note is paid in monthly payments of seven thousand, five hundred dollars ($7,500) beginning on September 1, 2020, terminating on February 1, 2025. There is no interest on the note or on the unpaid balance.
On March 30, 2020, we completed a redomicile from Delaware to Nevada, and changed the Company’s name to Cannabis Global, Inc. and concurrently its trading symbol to “CBGL.”
On May 6, 2020, the Company signed a joint venture agreement with RxLeaf, Inc. (“RxLeaf”) a Delaware corporation, creating a joint venture for the purpose of marketing the Company’s products to consumers. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will produce products, which will be sold by RX Leaf via its digital marketing assets. The Company agreed to share the profits from the joint venture on a 50/50 basis.
On July 22, 2020, we signed a management agreement with Whisper Weed, Inc., a California corporation (“Whisper Weed”). Edward Manolos, a director of the Company, is a shareholder in Whisper Weed (see “Related Party Transactions”). Whisper Weed conducts licensed delivery activity of cannabis products in California. The material definitive agreement requires the parties to create a separate entity, CGI Whisper W, Inc. in California as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The business of CGI Whisper W, Inc. will be to provide management services for the lawful delivery of cannabis in the State of California. The Company will manage CGI Whisper W, Inc. operations. In exchange for the Company providing management services to Whisper Weed through the auspices of CGI Whisper W, Inc., the Company will receive as consideration a quarterly fee of 51% of the net profits earned by Whisper Weed. As separate consideration for the transaction, the Company agreed to issue to Whisper Weed $150,000 in the Company’s restricted common stock, valued for purposes of issuance based on the average closing price of the Company’s common stock for the twenty days preceding the entry into the material definitive agreement. Additionally, the Company agreed to amend its articles of incorporation to designate a new class of preferred shares. The preferred class shall be designated and issued to Whisper Weed in an amount equal to two times the quarterly payment made to the Company. The preferred shares shall be convertible into the Company’s common stock after 6 months, and shall be senior to other debts of the Company. The conversion to common stock will be based on a value of common stock equal to at least two times the actual sales for the previous 90 day period. The Company agreed to include in the designation the obligation to make a single dividend payment to Whisper Weed equal to 90% of the initial quarterly net profits payable by Whisper Weed. As of November 30, 2020, the Company has not issued the common or preferred shares, nor designated the preferred stock series.

On August 31, 2020, we entered into a stock purchase agreement with Robert L. Hymers III (“Hymers”). Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company purchased from Hymers 266,667 shares of common stock of Natural Plant Extract of California Inc., a private California corporation (“NPE”), in exchange for $2,040,000. The purchased shares of common stock represents 18.8% of the outstanding capital stock of NPE on a fully diluted basis. NPE operates a licensed psychoactive cannabis manufacturing and distribution business operation in Lynwood, California. In connection with the stock purchase agreement, the Company became a party to a Shareholders Agreement, dated June 5, 2020, by and among Alan Tsai, Hymers, Betterworld Ventures, LLC, Marijuana Company of America, Inc. and NPE. The Shareholders Agreement contains customary rights and obligations, including restrictions on the transfer of the Shares. Pursuant to the stock purchase agreement, we were required to pay the purchase price in monthly installments of $20,000 for a period of twenty-seven (27) months, with the first payment commencing September 1, 2020 and the remaining payments due and payable on the first day of each subsequent month. At January 1, 2020, we were in arrears for five payments due totally $100,000. Consequently, on January 3, 2021, we entered into a settlement agreement concerning the five delinquent payments by agreeing to issue to Hymers a total of 1,585,791 shares of registered common stock from our S-1 registration statement made effective November 12, 2020 (see Subsequent Events).
On September 30, 2020, the Company entered into a securities exchange agreement with Marijuana Company of America, Inc., a Utah corporation (“MCOA”). By virtue of the agreement, the Company issued 7,222,222 shares of its unregistered common stock to MCOA in exchange for 650,000,000 shares of MCOA unregistered common stock. The Company and MCOA also entered into a lock up leak out agreement which prevents either party from sales of the exchanged shares for a period of 12 months. Thereafter the parties may sell not more than the quantity of shares equaling an aggregate maximum sale value of $20,000 per week, or $80,000 per month until all Shares and Exchange Shares are sold.
On November 16, 2020, the Company entered into a business acquisition agreement with Ethos Technology LLC, dba Comply Bag, a California limited liability company (“Ethos”). Ethos is a development stage business in the process of entering the market for cannabis trackable storage bags. By virtue of the agreement, Ethos sold, assigned, and transferred to the Company all of Ethos’ business, including all of its assets and associated liabilities, in exchange for the Company’s issuance of an aggregate of 6,000,000 common shares. 3,000,000 shares were due at signing, with 1,500,000 shares being issued to Edward Manolos, and 1,500,000 shares being issued to Thang Nguyen. Mr. Manolos is a director of the Company and a related party. Mr. Nguyen is the brother of Dan Van Nguyen, a director of the Company and a related party. After Ethos ships orders for Ethos products equaling $1,000,000 to unaffiliated parties, the Company will issue to Messrs. Manolos and Nguyen an additional 1,500,000 shares of common stock each.
NOTE 2 – Going Concern Uncertainties and Liquidity Requirements
During quarterly financial reporting period ending November 30, 2020, the Company generated $4,530 in revenues, has an accumulated deficit of $6,410,173, and does not have positive cash flows from operating activities. The Company expects to incur additional losses as begins to execute its business strategy in the cannabinoid marketplace. The Company will be subject to the risks, uncertainties, and difficulties frequently encountered by early-stage companies. The Company may not be able to successfully address any or all of these risks and uncertainties. Failure to adequately do so could cause the Company’s business, results of operations, and financial condition to suffer. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance date of these financial statements.
9 |
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is an issue due to its net losses and negative cash flows from operations, and its need for additional financing to fund future operations. Management plans to obtain necessary funding from outside sources and through the sales of Company shares. There can be no assurance that such funds, if available, can be obtained on terms reasonable to the Company. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Based on the Company’s current level of expenditures, management believes that cash on hand is not adequate to fund operations for the next twelve months. Management of the Company is estimating approximately $1,500,000 will be required over the next twelve months to fully execute its business strategy. These can be no assurance the Company will be able to obtain such funds.
NOTE 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in those statements. We have made our best estimates of certain amounts contained in our consolidated financial statements. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities. However, application of our accounting policies involves the exercise of judgment and use of assumptions as to future uncertainties, and, as a result, actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Management believes that the estimates, assumptions, and judgments involved in the accounting policies described below have the most significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
We cannot predict what future laws and regulations might be passed that could have a material effect on our results of operations. We assess the impact of significant changes in laws and regulations on a regular basis and update the assumptions and estimates used to prepare our financial statements when we deem it necessary.
Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Variable Interest Entities
The Company accounts for arrangements that are not controlled through voting or similar rights as variable interest entities (“VIEs”). An enterprise is required to consolidate a VIE if it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. A VIE is created when (i) the equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties, or (ii) the entity’s equity holders as a group either: (a) lack the power, through voting or similar rights, to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, (b) are not obligated to absorb expected losses of the entity if they occur, or (c) do not have the right to receive expected residual returns of the entity if they occur. If an entity is deemed to be a VIE, the enterprise that is deemed to have a variable interest, or combination of variable interests, that provides the enterprise with a controlling financial interest in the VIE, is considered the primary beneficiary and must consolidate the VIE. Investments where the Company has significant influence, but not control, and joint ventures which are VIEs in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary, are recorded under the equity method of accounting on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
As of November 30, 2020, the Company held a variable interest in an entity for which it directly held an 18.8% equity interest, and indirectly controlled 37.6% of the equity. The entity was not determined to be a VIE under ASC 810, as it did not meet the criteria outlined above. Since the Company indirectly controls less than 50% of the voting interest of the entity, the entity is not consolidated, and the Company accounts for the investment under the equity method of accounting in accordance with ASC 321. Since the entity in which the Company holds its investment does not have a readily determinable fair value, the Company elected to account for the investment under the measurement alternative, accounting for the investment at cost less impairment, plus or minus any changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the same investment. See Note 8 for additional information on this investment.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the Company’s business and financial results will depend on numerous evolving factors including, but not limited to: the magnitude and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, the extent to which it will impact worldwide macroeconomic conditions, the speed of the anticipated recovery, and governmental and business reactions to the pandemic. The Company assessed certain accounting matters that generally require consideration of forecasted financial information in context with the information reasonably available to the Company and the unknown future impacts of COVID-19 as of August 30, 2020 and through the date of this report. The matters assessed included accounts receivable and the carrying value of investments, intangible assets and other long-lived assets. The Company’s future assessment of the magnitude and duration of COVID-19, as well as other factors, could result in additional material impacts to the Company’s consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are held in operating accounts at a major financial institution.
Inventory
Inventory is primarily comprised of work in progress. Inventory is valued at cost, based on the specific identification method, unless and until the net realizable value for the inventory is lower than cost, in which case an allowance is established to reduce the valuation to the net realizable value. As of August 31, 2020, and August 31, 2019, market values of all of our inventory were at cost, and accordingly, no such valuation allowance was recognized.
Deposits
Deposits is comprised of advance payments made to third parties, primarily for inventory for which we have not yet taken title. When we take title to inventory for which deposits are made, the related amount is classified as inventory, then recognized as a cost of revenues upon sale (see “Costs of Revenues” below). There were no deposits as of November 30, 2020 or August 31, 2020.
Prepaid Expenses and Other Current Assets
Prepaid expenses and other current assets is primarily comprised of advance payments made to third parties for independent contractors’ services or other general expenses. Prepaid services and general expenses are amortized over the applicable periods which approximate the life of the contract or service period.

Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded at the net value of face amount less any allowance for doubtful accounts. On a periodic basis, we evaluate our accounts receivable and, based on a method of specific identification of any accounts receivable for which we deem the net realizable value to be less than the gross amount of accounts receivable recorded, we establish an allowance for doubtful accounts for those balances. In determining our need for an allowance for doubtful accounts, we consider historical experience, analysis of past due amounts, client creditworthiness and any other relevant available information. However, our actual experience may vary from our estimates. If the financial condition of our clients were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability or unwillingness to pay our fees, we may need to record additional allowances or write-offs in future periods. This risk is mitigated to the extent that we collect retainers from our clients prior to performing significant services.
The allowance for doubtful accounts, if any, is recorded as a reduction in revenue to the extent the provision relates to fee adjustments and other discretionary pricing adjustments. To the extent the provision relates to a client's inability to make required payments on accounts receivables, the provision is recorded in operating expenses. As of November 30 2020, and November, 2019, we had $0 and $0 allowance for doubtful accounts, respectively.
Property and Equipment, net
Property and Equipment is stated at net book value, cost less depreciation. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation of owned equipment is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from two to seven years. Depreciation of capitalized construction in progress costs, a component of property and equipment, net, begins once the underlying asset is placed into service and is recognized over the estimated useful life. Property and equipment is reviewed for impairment as discussed below under “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets.” We did not capitalize any interest as of November 30, 2020, and as of November 30, 2019.
Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We evaluate long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Upon such an occurrence, recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to forecasted undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. For long-lived assets held for sale, assets are written down to fair value, less cost to sell. Fair value is determined based on discounted cash flows, appraised values or management's estimates, depending upon the nature of the assets. We have not recorded any impairment charges related to long-lived assets during the year ended November 30, 2020, and as of November 30, 2019.
Beneficial Conversion Feature
If the conversion features of conventional convertible debt provides for a rate of conversion that is below market value at issuance, this feature is characterized as a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). We record a BCF as a debt discount pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ACF”) Topic 470-20 Debt with Conversion and Other Options. In those circumstances, the convertible debt is recorded net of the discount related to the BCF, and we amortize the discount to interest expense over the life of the debt using the effective interest method.

Revenue Recognition
In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 606, Revenue Recognition, we recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of a significant financing component exists in our consulting and product sales contracts. We examine and evaluate when our customers become liable to pay for goods and services; how much consideration is paid as compared to the cash selling price of the goods or services; and, the length of time between our performance and the receipt of payment.
Product Sales
Revenue from product sales, including delivery fees, is recognized at a point in time when control of the promised goods is transferred to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods. Generally, we drop-ship orders to our clients with shipping-point or destination terms. For any shipments with destination terms, the Company defers revenue until delivery to the customer. Given the facts that (1) our customers exercise discretion in determining the timing of when they place their product order; and, (2) the price negotiated in our product sales is fixed and determinable at the time the customer places the order, we are not of the opinion that our product sales indicate or involve any significant customer financing that would materially change the amount of revenue recognized under the sales transaction, or would otherwise contain a significant financing component for us or the customer under FASB ASC Topic 606.
Costs of Revenues
Our policy is to recognize costs of revenue in the same manner in conjunction with revenue recognition. Cost of revenues include the costs directly attributable to revenue recognition and includes compensation and fees for services, travel and other expenses for services and costs of products and equipment. Selling, general and administrative expenses are charged to expense as incurred.
Stock-Based Compensation
Restricted shares are awarded to employees and entitle the grantee to receive shares of restricted common stock at the end of the established vesting period. The fair value of the grant is based on the stock price on the date of grant. We recognize related compensation costs on a straight-line basis over the requisite vesting period of the award, which to date has been one year from the grant date.
Income Taxes
We recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns in accordance with applicable accounting guidance for accounting for income taxes, using currently enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. We record a valuation allowance when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. As of November 30, 2020, and August 31, 2020, we had no liabilities related to federal or state income taxes.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share
We report net income (loss) per common share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share”. This statement requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings with a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the earnings per share computations. Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period and excludes the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted net income (loss) per share gives effect to any dilutive potential common stock outstanding during the period. The computation does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent exercise of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings.
Note 4 - Net Loss Per Share
During fiscal years ending November 30, 2020 and November 30, 2019, the Company recorded a net loss. Basic and diluted net loss per share is the same for those periods.
Note 5 – Notes Receivable
On July 9, 2019, the Company, through its Action Nutraceuticals subsidiary, loaned, Split Tee, LLC (“Split Tee”), a venture associated with Director Edward Manolos, $20,000 to engage in an exploratory research project. An additional $20,000 was supplied to Split Tee on August 23, 2019. The loans carry interest at the rate of 10% per annum and are due in one year for issuance. Because of Mr. Manolos’ association as a director, the Company believes these transactions are defined by 17 CFR § 229.404 - (Item 404) Transactions with related persons, promoters and certain control persons, which would require specific disclosures under the section cited. As of the end of the fiscal year August 31, 2020, the Company determined it is not likely that repayment of the $40,000 note would occur, thus the Company booked an allowance for Bad Debt expense for the amount. As of the end of the November 30, 2020, the balance was zero.

As of November 30, 2020 and August 31, 2020, the carrying value of the remaining note with the former chief financial officer was $22,670 and $15,884, net of debt discount of $31,098 and $37,884 and accrued interest was $4,479 and $3,138, respectively. In December 2020, the full amount of principal and accrued interest were converted into 878,190 shares of common stock.
On April 30, 2020, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with its former Chief Financial Officer (Robert L. Hymers III, (hereinafter referred to as the “CFO”), whereby the CFO resigned and the Company issued a promissory note for $30,000, which represented the remaining amount owed to the CFO for services rendered. The note matures December 31, 2020 and bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum, payable at maturity. The noteholder has the right to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal balance of the note, at any time, into shares of common stock of the Company at a fixed conversion price of $0.02 per share, subject to adjustment. As a result of the beneficial conversion price, upon issuance, the Company recognized debt discount of $30,000, which is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the note. In October 2020, the noteholder converted all principal into 1,500,000 shares of common stock. As of November 30, 2020 accrued interest was $1,759.

On August 21, 2020 the Company, issued a convertible note pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “SPA) to acquire 266,667 shares of common stock of Natural Plant Extract of California Inc., a California corporation (“NPE”), representing 18.8% of the outstanding capital stock of NPE on a fully diluted basis. With the exception of the entry into the subject material definitive agreements, no material relationship exists between the Registrant, or any of the Registrant’s affiliates or control persons and Hymers. Under the terms of the SPA, the Registrant acquired all rights and responsibilities of the equity stake for a purchase price of Two Million Forty Thousand United States Dollars ($2,040,000) (the “Purchase Price”). Relative to the payment of the Purchase Price, the registrant agreed to: 1) pay Hymers Twenty Thousand United States Dollars ($20,000) each month for a period of twenty-seven (27) months, with the first payment commencing September 1, 2020 and the remaining payments due and payable on the first day of each subsequent month until Hymers has received Five Hundred Forty Thousand United Stated Dollars ($540,000), and 2) issue Hymers a convertible promissory note in the amount of One Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars ($1,500,000) (the “Note”). The Note bears interest at ten percent (10%) per annum. The Holder shall have the right at any time six (6) months after the Issuance Date to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal, interest, fees, or any other obligation owed pursuant to the note. Conversion Price shall be calculated as follows: 60% of the lowest Trading Price of the common shares during the ten (10) days preceding the date the Company receive a notice of conversion. Unless permitted by the applicable rules and regulations of the principal securities market on which the Common Stock is then listed or traded, in no event shall the Registrant issue upon conversion of or otherwise pursuant to the note and the other notes issued more than the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that the Company can issue pursuant to any rule of the principal United States securities market on which the Common Stock is then traded, which shall be 4.99% of the total shares outstanding at any time. A debt discount of $54,212 on the note payable at issuance was calculated based on the present value of the note using an implied interest rate of 10%. A debt discount of $270,886 was recognized. Accordingly, the Company recorded an initial value of its investment in NPE of $1,714,903. At the time the note becomes convertible, the Company will recognize a derivative liability at fair value related to the embedded conversion option at that time. Prior to these transactions, Robert Hymers III and Alan Tsai each sold equity interest representing a total of 18.8% of the outstanding equity interest of NPE to Edward Manolos, a Director and preferred stockholder of the Company in a private transaction. As a result of these two transactions, the Company beneficially controls approximately 37% of the equity of NPE. After this transaction, a venture capital company controls 40% of the equity interests in NPE, the Company, Alan Tsai and Edward Manolos each control 18.8% and one other entity controls 3.5%. As of the date of this filing, we were in arrears for five payments equaling $100,000, due under the terms of the stock purchase agreement. On January 3, 2021, we entered into a settlement agreement concerning the five delinquent payments by agreeing to issue to Hymers a total of 1,585,791 shares of registered common stock from our S-1 registration statement made effective November 12, 2020 (see Subsequent Events).
The Company evaluated its interest in NPE as of November 30, 2020 under ASC 810. Management determined that it had a variable interest in NPE, but that NPE does not meet the definition of a variable interest entity, and does not have an indirect voting interest of greater than 50%. Based on these factors, the investment in NPE by the Company, the investment in NPE will be accounted for as an equity method investment under the measurement alternative available under ASC 321 with the Company recording its share of the profits and losses of NPE at each reporting period. The initial investment balance was $1,714,903 based on the initial fair value estimate of the note payable and convertible note payable issued as consideration for the investment. For the three months ended November 30, 2020, the Company recognized no equity method income or losses due and no impairment of the investment. During the three months ended November 30, 2020, the Company recognized investment income of $148,015 related to the investment in NPE.

Note 9. Derivative Liability and Far Value Measurement
Upon the issuance of the convertible promissory notes with variable conversion prices and fixed conversion prices with reset provisions, the Company determined that the features associated with the embedded conversion option embedded in the debentures should be accounted for at fair value, as a derivative liability, as the Company cannot determine if a sufficient number of shares would be available to settle all potential future conversion transactions.
At the issuance date of the convertible notes payable during the three months ended November 30, 2020, the Company estimated the fair value of all embedded derivatives of $729,827 using the Black-Scholes Pricing Model based on the following assumptions: (1) dividend yield of 0%, (2) expected volatility of 373% to 378%, (3) risk-free interest rate of 0.12% to 0.13k %, and (4) expected life of one year.
On November 30, 2020, the Company estimated the fair value of the embedded derivatives of $1,139,952 using the Black-Scholes Pricing Model based on the following assumptions: (1) dividend yield of 0%, (2) expected volatility of 374%, (3) risk-free interest rate of 0.09 to 0.11%, and (4) expected life of 0.3 to 1.1 years.
The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 825-10, Financial Instruments (“ASC 825-10”). ASC 825-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of nonperformance. ASC 825-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 825-10 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value.
• | Level 1 — Observable inputs that reflect quoted market prices (unadjusted) for identical assets and liabilities in active markets; |
• | Level 2 — Observable inputs, other than quoted market prices, that are either directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace for identical or similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets and liabilities; and |
• | Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity that are significant to the fair value of assets or liabilities. |
All items required to be recorded or measured on a recurring basis are based upon Level 3 inputs.
To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is disclosed and is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
20 |
The Company recognizes its derivative liabilities as Level 3 and values its derivatives using the methods discussed below. While the Company believes that its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, it recognizes that the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. The primary assumptions that would significantly affect the fair values using the methods discussed are that of volatility and market price of the underlying common stock of the Company.
As of November 30, 2020, the Company did not have any derivative instruments that were designated as hedges.
Items recorded or measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the accompanying financial statements consisted of the following items as of November 30, 2020 and August 31, 2020:
November 30, 2020 | Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) | Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) | Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) | |||||||||||||
Derivative liability | $ | 1,139,952 | $ | — | $ | — | $ | 1,139,952 |
August 31, 2020 | Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) | Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) | Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) | |||||||||||||
Derivative liability | $ | 1,125,803 | $ | — | $ | — | $ | 1,125,803 | ||||||||
The following table provides a summary of changes in fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities for the three months ended November 30, 2020:
Balance, August 31, 2020 | $ | 1,125,803 | ||
Transfers in due to issuance of convertible promissory notes | 729,826 | |||
Transfers out due to repayments of convertible promissory notes | (139,431 | ) | ||
Transfers out due to conversions of convertible promissory notes | — | |||
Mark to market to November 30, 2020 | 1,716,198 | |||
Balance, November 30, 2020 | $ | 1,139,952 | ||
Gain on change in derivative liability for the three months ended November 30, 2020 | $ | (576,246 | ) |
Fluctuations in the Company’s stock price are a primary driver for the changes in the derivative valuations during each reporting period. As the stock price increases for each of the related derivative instruments, the value to the holder of the instrument generally increases, therefore increasing the liability on the Company’s balance sheet. Additionally, stock price volatility is one of the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of each of the Company’s derivative instruments. The simulated fair value of these liabilities is sensitive to changes in the Company’s expected volatility. Increases in expected volatility would generally result in higher fair value measurement. A 10% change in pricing inputs and changes in volatilities and correlation factors would not result in a material change in our Level 3 fair value.

Overview
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the accompanying notes to the financial statements included in this Form 10-Q.
The disclosure is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Our Business
We are a developmental company primarily focused on entering a wide array of hemp and related market sectors. Our primary objective is to create and commercialization engineered technologies to deliver hemp extracts and cannabinoids to the human body. We have recently expanding our focus to include middle portions of the hemp and related value chain, including the licensing of our core technologies to manufacturers of hemp and related products.
Ethos Bag
On November 16, 2020, the Company closed the acquisition of Ethos Technology LLC, a Los Angeles startup (“Ethos”) specializing in ultra-secure cannabis transport containers for the commercial cultivation, processing and distribution markets. Cannabis Global plans to utilize this technology to market a line of secure transport products under the brand name Comply Bag™.. Under the terms of the agreement with Directors Manolos and Nguyen from which Ethos was acquired, Cannabis Global acquired all technologies and products of Ethos for up to six million shares of restricted common stock to be paid out based on performance milestones achieved as this unique transport technology is rolled out into the licensed and regulated cannabis sector. Cannabis Global expects to begin offering the products on a nationwide basis over the next few months. The Ethos acquisition was with related parties, Directors Manolos and Nguyen. See section designated Related Party Transactions for additional disclosures.
The Company believes the current generation of cannabis transport and security products has not advanced to keep pace with the industry. All states where cannabis has been legalized require cultivators, processors and distributors to track all shipments, and shippers need to ensure the exact contents of what is shipped to be received by the intended recipient. The new products to be released by Cannabis Global are designed to meet these needs. The Company is still in development for Comply Bag™ products with expected delivery beginning during the first calendar quarter of 2021. As of the date of this report, the Company was not yet shipping or booking revenue from this product segment, and this business is in the development stage as of the date of this filing.

Our Research and Development Programs
Our research and development program focuses on the development of new methods to infuse cannabinoids, hemp, and hemp extracts into consumer products, or into products to be sold to hemp, cannabis and hemp extract consumer product manufacturers.
Our research and development programs include the following;
1) | Development of new methods for hemp extraction and cannabinoid delivery to the human body. |
2) | Production of unique polymeric nanoparticles and fibers for use in oral and dermal cannabinoid delivery. |
3) | Research and commercialization of new methodologies to isolate and/or concentrate various cannabinoids and other substances that comprise industrial hemp oil and other extracts. |
4) | Development of new methods to administer both common and rare cannabinoids to the human body. These efforts have centered on Cannabidiol (CBD), Tetrahydrocannabivarin (THV-V), and Cannabinol (CBN), but also apply to other cannabinoids. |
5) | Invention of new methods to create free flowing and other powders of hemp extract and cannabinoid containing liquid substances. |
6) | Development of systems to infused coffee, tea and single service beverage pods with hemp extracts and/or cannabinoids. |
These research and development efforts resulted in the filing of six provisional patent filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, which are disclosed below, and other technologies which the Company protects as trade secrets. A provisional patent application is a legal document filed in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, that establishes an early filing date, but does not mature into an issued patent unless the applicant files a regular non-provisional patent application within one year. We received one trademark and have one application pending.
Our Intellectual Property Portfolio
The Company’s strategy is to develop a growing portfolio of intellectual property relating to the processing of hemp extracts and cannabinoids into forms that are easily and efficiently delivered to the human body and to companion animals.
The Company owns no patents, trademarks or service marks. The Company has developed several technologies for which it plans to apply for patent protection over the coming months.
The Company has filed six provisional patents on various hemp and related cannabinoid infusion technologies. None of these have been accepted, evaluated or issued by the U.S. patent office. All filings were made on a provisional basis. Generally, filers of provisional patents have one year from the time of filing to either re-file the patents as formal patent applications or to abandon the filings. The Company plans to re-file the below, prior to the expiration of the one year time period beginning on the dates listed below.

(“RxLeaf”) a Delaware corporation, creating a joint venture for the purpose of marketing the Company’s products to consumers. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will produce products, which will be sold by RX Leaf via its digital marketing assets. The Company agreed to share the profits from the joint venture on a 50/50 basis. Marketing of the Company’s product began during August of 2020.
Polymeric Nanoparticles and Polymeric Nanofibers Research Program
The Company has an active research and development program to develop novel polymeric nanoparticles and nanofibers of cannabinoids and hemp extracts. Polymeric nanoparticles are very small solid particles with a size in the range of 10–1000 nanometers (nm or billionth of a meter), and are made of biodegradable and biocompatible polymers or copolymers, in which cannabinoids or other active ingredients can be entrapped or encapsulated. Polymeric nanoparticles are noted for and have attractive characteristics, such as small size, near water solubility, high degrees of bioavailability, long shelf life and stability during storage. These properties are thought to be especially beneficial relative to delivery of cannabinoids and hemp extracts to the human body.
Polymeric nanofibers are fibers with diameters several orders of magnitude smaller than conventional fibers, typically in the size range of a few nanometers to one micrometer. Due to their large surface areas per unit mass and extremely small pore size, these nanofibers demonstrate unique properties, making the technology especially well-suited to transdermal delivery of active ingredients, including cannabinoids.
Project Varin
The primary goal of Project Varin is the development of THC-V delivery methods that improve bioavailability of the cannabinoid to the human body. The project was recently expanded to include cannabinol (CBN) an additional rare cannabinoid.
In the first stage of the program researchers produced THC-V polymeric nanoparticles and nanofibers based on the Company’s patent-pending technologies. In the second phase of development, the Company plans to apply its ongoing cannabinoid glycosides research to THC-V, in order to produce THC-V with unparalleled levels of availability at minimal usage levels.
As a result of Project Varin, the Company has developed several new methods to produce cannabinoid nanoparticles and nanofibers, which the Company plans to formulate into food and beverage ingredients for used in its own products or to be sold to other companies for inclusion in food, beverage, or other consumer goods. The Company plans to continue other areas of delivery systems research via Project Varin including its programs pertaining to cannabinoid glycosides, polymeric cannabinoid nanoparticles and nanofibers, and its hemp extract-based alcohol replacement technologies.

Edible, Dissolvable Film Enhanced with Solid Nanoparticles of Cannabinoids Research Program
The Company is seeking to commercialize a unique invention of edible, disposable film enhanced with solid nanoparticles of cannabinoids under an agreement with Kirby & Padgett, LLC, a California limited liability company, entered into during June of 2019. Management believes there are numerous applications for such a product, such as a container for ready-made foods, protein powders, vitamins, and nutraceuticals that can be simply dropped into cold beverages, thus allowing the consumer to avoid additional steps of mixing ingredients. Additionally, since the film is impregnated with what is believed to be highly bioavailable cannabinoids, the film will perhaps serve a dual purpose as a delivery vehicle for cannabinoids to the body. Future versions of the film could include ingredients such as vitamins, trace minerals or active pharmaceutical ingredients. On June 6, 2019, the Company entered into a joint intellectual property ownership and consulting agreement with Kirby & Padgett, LLC, a California Limited liability company in order to more fully develop and to commercialize the invention. Any intellectual property developed under the collaboration effort will be considered joint property with all rights, title and interest assigned jointly to the Company and Kirby. Each Party shall work with the other Party relative to all business and monetization of such new Joint Intellectual Property and neither Party shall have any preferred rights over the other. Additionally, either party shall have the right to market the new invention with any and all revenues, costs and profits to be shared on a fifty percent/fifty percent (50%/50%) shares by the parties. All expenses will be agreed to in advance, with each Party sharing based on predetermined percentages of such expenses.
Management Services for Whisper Weed
On July 22, 2020, we signed a management agreement with Whisper Weed, Inc., a California corporation (“Whisper Weed”). Edward Manolos, a director of the Company, is a shareholder in Whisper Weed (see “Related Party Transactions”). Whisper Weed conducts licensed delivery activity of cannabis products in California. The material definitive agreement requires the parties to create a separate entity, CGI Whisper W, Inc. in California as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The business of CGI Whisper W, Inc. will be to provide management services for the lawful delivery of cannabis in the State of California. The Company will manage CGI Whisper W, Inc. operations. In exchange for the Company providing management services to Whisper Weed through the auspices of CGI Whisper W, Inc., the Company will receive as consideration a quarterly fee of 51% of the net profits earned by Whisper Weed. As separate consideration for the transaction, the Company agreed to issue to Whisper Weed $150,000 in the Company’s restricted common stock, valued for purposes of issuance based on the average closing price of the Company’s common stock for the twenty days preceding the entry into the material definitive agreement. Additionally, the Company agreed to amend its articles of incorporation to designate a new class of preferred shares. The preferred class shall be designated and issued to Whisper Weed in an amount equal to two times the quarterly payment made to the Company.

Competition
We are entering markets that are highly competitive.
Relative to our prospects for commercializing polymeric nanoparticles and nanofibers, there are many competitors with various approaches to cannabinoid infusion for foods, beverages and other consumer products. While these currently available technologies are not directly competitive with us, such technologies may be viewed as being directly competitive by the marketplace in the future. Many of the current market participants are well established with considerable financial backing. We expect the quality and composition of the competitive market in the hemp processing environment to continue to evolve as the industry matures. Additionally, increased competition is possible to the extent that new states and geographies enter into the marketplace as a result of continued enactment of regulatory and legislative changes that de-criminalize and regulate cannabis and hemp products, including the 2018 Farm Bill. We believe the contemporaneous growth of the industry as a whole will result in new customers entering the marketplace, thereby further mitigating the impact of competition on our expected operations and results relating to our hemp processing businesses.
Relative to our non-psychoactive cannabis extract powdered drink business, there are relatively few market participants in this sector, but management of the Company believes the competitive situation will advance quickly over the coming months as new companies target this potentially lucrative market opportunity. Additionally, while large beverage industry participants have yet to launch products in this area, we believe such market entrances are likely as the regulatory environment is clarified by the FDA. This could significantly affect our ability to achieve market success.
We believe the contemporaneous growth of the cannabis beverage sector and the industry as a whole will result in new customers entering the marketplace, thereby further mitigating the impact of competition on our expected operations and results relating to hemp cultivation and processing business and joint venture.
Employees
The Company has one employee, CEO, Arman Tabatabaei. Additionally, the Company relies on the services of numerous consultants who perform various tasks for the Company. Our U.S employee is not represented by a labor union.

Critical Accounting Policies
In December 2001, the SEC requested that all registrants list their most “critical accounting polices” in the Management Discussion and Analysis. The SEC indicated that a “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results, and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.
Our accounting policies are discussed in detail in the footnotes to our financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2019, however we consider our critical accounting policies to be those related to derivative financial instruments.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
We review new accounting standards as issued. Although some of these accounting standards issued or effective after the end of our previous fiscal year may be applicable to the Company, we have not identified any standards that we believe merit further discussion. We do not expect the adoption of any recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely and reliable financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As of the quarter ended November 30, 2020, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer completed an assessment of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e), to determine the existence of any material weaknesses or significant deficiencies under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of the Company's financial reporting.
Based on that evaluation, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures over financial reporting were not effective as of November 30, 2020.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended November 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
On November 22, 2019, the Company filed suit against Jeet Sidhru and Jatinder Bhogal in the District Court of Clark County Nevada, Case number A-19-805943-C. Mr. Sidhru and Mr. Bhogal were formerly directors and officers of the Company. The Company’s complaint alleges that Mr. Sidhru and Mr. Bhogal breached their fiduciary duties to the Company, including their fiduciary duties of due care, good faith and loyalty, by recklessly and intentionally failing to maintain the Company’s statutory corporate filings with the State of Nevada, OTC Markets and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and abandoning the Company and its shareholders. The Company’s complaint also alleges that Mr. Sidhru and Mr. Bhogal engaged in conflicted transactions involving the Company, in which each were unjustly enriched. The Company served Mr. Bhogal, and received notice of representation of both defendants. The case is currently in its early phase, as neither defendant has responded to the complaint.
