ENDEXX CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. Organization and Basis of Presentation
We were incorporated under the laws of State of Nevada on September 5, 1997, as Micron Solutions. From 2002-2005, the Company operated as Panamed Corporation, a biotech service and licensing company. Panamed Corporation merged with Visual Board Books Inc. (VBB) in February 2005 and changed the consolidated company name to Endexx Corporation (the Company).
Our primary business is the manufacturing and sale of hemp products and organic, plant-based, all-natural, zero-nicotine vape products. The Company has the following operating subsidiaries:
● | CBD Unlimited, Inc. (70% owner) | |
● | Khode, LLC (70% owner) | |
● | Hyla US Holdco Limited (51% owner) |
Basis of Presentation and Going Concern
The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. These principles require 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 period. Management believes that these estimates are reasonable and have been discussed with the Board of Directors; however, actual results could differ from those estimates. The operating results of the above listed wholly owned subsidiaries were consolidated with the consolidated financial statements of the Company. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Our consolidated financial statements have been presented on the basis that we are a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have sustained operating losses since inception, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
As of June 30, 2023, we have a working capital deficit of $23,057,676, and an accumulated deficit of $48,262,132. During the year ended September 30, 2022, we had a net loss of $5,144,560 and cash used in operating activities of $2,088,304. During the nine months ended June 30, 2023, we had a net loss of $4,606,220 and cash used in operating activities of $1,107,839. The Company’s ability to continue in existence is dependent on its ability to develop additional sources of capital, and/or achieve profitable operations and positive cash flows. Management’s plans with respect to operations include the sustained and aggressive marketing of hemp cannabidiol products and raising additional capital through sales of equity or debt securities as may be necessary to pursue its business plans and sustain operations until such time as the Company can achieve profitability. Management believes that aggressive marketing combined with additional financing as necessary will result in improved operations and cash flow in 2023 and beyond. However, there can be no assurance that management will be successful in obtaining additional funding or in attaining profitable operations. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the interim reporting 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 latest Annual Report filed with the SEC on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments (unless otherwise indicated), necessary for a fair presentation of the 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 the full year.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates
The Company’s financial statement preparation requires that management make estimates and assumptions which affect the reporting of assets and liabilities and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in order to report these financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash
Cash includes all highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have original maturities at the date of purchase of three months or less. There were no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022. The Company maintains its cash balances at financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). The FDIC provides coverage of up to $250,000 per depositor, per financial institution, for the aggregate total of depositors’ interest and non-interest-bearing accounts. The Company’s cash balances may at times be in excess of FDIC limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on these accounts and management does not believe that the Company is exposed to any significant risks.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consists of invoiced and unpaid product sales. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts to allow for any amounts that may not be recoverable, which is based on an analysis of the Company’s prior collection experience, customer credit worthiness, and current economic trends. Accounts are considered delinquent when payments have not been received within the agreed upon terms and are written off when management determines that collection is not probable.
Inventory
Inventory is composed of finished goods, in-process, and raw goods inventory, valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, and includes production cost, product freight in, and packaging costs. Slow moving and obsolete inventories are written down based on a comparison of on-hand quantities to historical and projected usages.
The Company has authorized a consignment inventory arrangement with one of its mass retail customers. After consignment inventory has been sold by this customer, the customer notifies the Company of the sale and the Company records revenue in that accounting period. The Company authorizes the replenishment of consignment inventory based on orders placed by the customer. The Company is provided with weekly reports of consignment sales activity and balances.
Prepaid Expenses
The Company considers all items incurred for future products and services to be prepaid expenses. At June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the Company had prepaid expenses totaling $1,208,617 and $1,367,100, respectively, which primarily consisted of prepayments for wholesale inventory purchases, which are shipped directly from the vendor to our customers when fulfilled.

Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Depreciation and amortization are based on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations in the period realized.
Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method net of salvage value with useful lives as follows:
Computer equipment and software | 5 years | ||
Business equipment and fixtures | 7 years | ||
Property and buildings | 39 years |
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Each period, the Company evaluates the estimated remaining useful life of its intangible assets and whether events or changes in circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. Management tests for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances occur that could impact the recoverability of these assets.
Impairment Assessment
The Company evaluates intangible assets and other long-lived assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. This includes but is not limited to significant adverse changes in business climate, market conditions or other events that indicate an asset’s carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of each asset to the future cash flows the asset is expected to generate. If the cash flows used in the test for recoverability are less than the carrying amount of these assets, the carrying amount of such assets is reduced to fair value.
The Company evaluates and tests the recoverability of its goodwill for impairment at least annually during its fourth quarter of each fiscal year or more often if and when circumstances indicate that goodwill may not be recoverable.
Customer Deposits
From time-to-time the Company receives payment from customers in advance of delivering products to the customer. All such deposits are short term in nature as the Company delivers the product, unfulfilled portions, or engineering services to the customer before the end of its next annual fiscal period. These deposits are credited to the customer against product deliveries or at the completion of the customer’s order.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized from the sale of hemp products when our performance obligation is satisfied. Our primary performance obligation (the distribution and sales of hemp products) is satisfied upon the shipment of products to our customers, which is also when control is transferred. The transfer of control of products to our customers is typically based on written sales terms that do not allow for a right of return after 30 days from the date of purchase. Wholesale products are primarily drop-shipped directly from our vendors to our customers. Revenue is recognized net of allowances for returns and any taxes collected from customers and subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.

Financial Instruments
In accordance with the reporting requirements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 825, Financial Instruments, the Company calculates the fair value of its assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments under this standard and includes this additional information in the notes to the financial statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of those financial instruments. The Company does not have assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis except its derivative liability.
Consequently, the Company did not have any fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value at the balance sheet dates, nor gains or losses reported in the statements of operations that are attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses relating to those assets and liabilities still held during the periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, except as disclosed.
Fair Value Measurement
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, provides a comprehensive framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures which are required about fair value measurements. Specifically, ASC 820 sets forth a definition of fair value and establishes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable value inputs. ASC 820 defines the hierarchy as follows:
Level 1 - Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 1 are highly liquid and actively traded instruments with quoted prices, such as equities listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
Level 2 - Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets but are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities in Level 2 are typically either comparable to actively traded securities or contracts or priced with models using highly observable inputs.
Level 3 - Significant inputs to pricing that are unobservable as of the reporting date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 3 are those with inputs requiring significant management judgment or estimation, such as complex and subjective models and forecasts used to determine the fair value.

The following tables present the Company’s assets and liabilities that were measured and recognized at fair value as of June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022:

Under the Company’s contract ordering policy, the Company first considers common shares issued and outstanding as well as reserved but unissued equity awards, such as under an equity award program. All remaining equity linked instruments such as, but not limited to, options, warrants, and debt and equity with conversion features are evaluated based on the date of issuance. If the number of shares which may be issued under the Company’s agreements exceed the authorized number of shares or are unable to be determined, equity linked instruments from that date forward are considered to be derivative liabilities until such time as the number of shares which may be issued under the Company’s agreements no longer exceed the authorized number of shares and are able to be determined.
During August 2022, the Company issued a note agreement containing provisions meeting the definition of a derivative liability which therefore require bifurcation. Further, pursuant to the Company’s contract ordering policy, any issuances of equity linked instruments subsequent to August 31, 2022, will result in derivative liabilities.
At September 30, 2022, the Company estimated the fair value of the conversion feature derivatives embedded in the promissory note based on assumptions used in the Cox-Ross-Rubinstein binomial pricing model using the following weighted-average inputs: the price of the Company’s common stock of $3.83%; expected volatility of the Company’s common stock of 400%; estimated exercise price of $0.0898; and term of approximately nine years. ; a risk-free interest rate of
At June 30, 2023, the Company estimated the fair value of the conversion feature derivatives embedded in the promissory note based on assumptions used in the Cox-Ross-Rubinstein binomial pricing model using the following weighted-average inputs: the price of the Company’s common stock of $3.81%; expected volatility of the Company’s common stock of 261%; estimated exercise price of $0.041; and term of approximately nine years. ; a risk-free interest rate of
A reconciliation of the changes in the Company’s Level 3 derivative liability at fair value is as follows:

Convertible Instruments
The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in convertible instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging Activities.
Applicable GAAP requires companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free-standing derivative financial instruments according to certain criteria. The criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under other GAAP with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument.
The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has been determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) as follows: The Company records when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their stated date of redemption.
Beneficial Conversion Features
ASC 470-20 applies to convertible securities with beneficial conversion features that must be settled in stock and to those that give the issuer a choice in settling the obligation in either stock or cash. ASC 470-20 requires that the beneficial conversion feature should be valued at the commitment date as the difference between the conversion price and the fair market value of the common stock into which the security is convertible, multiplied by the number of shares into which the security is convertible. This amount is recorded as a debt discount and amortized over the life of the debt. ASC 470-20 further limits this amount to the proceeds allocated to the convertible instrument.
Research and development costs
Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred and are included in operating expenses.
Advertising Costs
The costs of advertising are expensed as incurred. Advertising expenses are included in the Company’s operating expenses. Advertising expenses were $387,265 and $444,255 for the periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes utilizing the liability method of accounting. Under the liability method, deferred taxes are determined based on differences between financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates in effect in years in which differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are expected to be realized.
The Company follows ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. This interpretation requires recognition and measurement of uncertain income tax positions using a “more-likely-than-not” approach. The Company evaluates its tax positions on an annual basis, and as of June 30, 2023, no additional accrual for income taxes is necessary. The Company’s policy is to recognize both interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits expected to result in payment of cash within one year are classified as accrued liabilities, while those expected beyond one year are classified as other liabilities. The Company has not recorded any interest or penalties since its inception. The Company is required to file income tax returns in the U.S. federal tax jurisdiction and in various state tax jurisdictions and the prior three fiscal years remain open for examination by federal and/or state tax jurisdictions. The Company is currently not under examination by any other tax jurisdictions for any tax year.

FASB ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share, requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (EPS) computations.
Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.

Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines, penalties and other sources are recorded when management assesses that it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470- 20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. This ASU (a) simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock by removing the existing guidance in ASC 470-20, Debt: Debt with Conversion and Other Options, that requires entities to account for beneficial conversion features and cash conversion features in equity, separately from the host convertible debt or preferred stock; (b) revises the scope exception from derivative accounting in ASC 815-40 for freestanding financial instruments and embedded features that are both indexed to the issuer’s own stock and classified in stockholders’ equity, by removing certain criteria required for equity classification; and (c) revises the guidance in ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, to require entities to calculate diluted earnings per share for convertible instruments by using the “if-converted” method. In addition, entities must presume share settlement for purposes of calculating diluted earnings per share when an instrument may be settled in cash or shares. For smaller reporting companies, ASU 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2020-06 may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
As of June 30, 2023, there were several new accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. Management does not believe the adoption of any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Settlement
During October 2022, the Company settled a dispute with the Company’s former Chief Medical Officer. As part of the settlement, the Company paid compensation totaling $109,000, which consisted of $25,000 in cash and shares of common stock.
Serious Promotions, Inc.
In June 2022, Serious Promotions, Inc. filed a Petition before the American Arbitration Association seeking monetary damages against Khode, LLC. Serious Promotions alleges that Khode failed to make certain payments of fees related to the Endorsement and License Agreement entered into by Serious Promotions and its president Khaled Mohamed Khaled (p/k/a DJ Khaled). Serious Promotions seeks $6,250,000 in damages.
In July 2022, Khode, joined as a party by the Company, filed counterclaims against Serious Promotions, Khaled and Impact Brokers for breach of the Endorsement and License Agreement and related violations of legal duties, seeking damages in an amount no less than $100,000,000.
Although this arbitration is in its early stages, the Company is confident in its position, will vigorously defend its position, and prosecute its counterclaims, and ultimately expects rulings in its favor.
Contracts and commitments
During October 2020, the Company entered into a five-year endorsement contract with an American DJ, record executive and producer, and media personality. Pursuant to the endorsement contract, the Company is to make quarterly payments totaling $5,000,000 by July 1, 2025. During the year ended September 30, 2021, the Company paid $1,000,000 under this contract. The agreement was terminated during the year ended September 30, 2022. The Company is involved in litigation related to this agreement, as detailed above.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
For a description of our significant accounting policies and an understanding of the significant factors that influenced our performance during the three months and nine months ended June 30, 2023, this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” (hereafter referred to as “MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements, including the related notes, appearing in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended September 30, 2022 (the “Form 10-K”).
Note about Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes statements that constitute “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking statements are often characterized by the terms “may,” “believes,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “expects,” or “anticipates,” and do not reflect historical facts.
Specific forward-looking statements contained in this portion of the Quarterly Report include, but are not limited to: (i) statements that are based on current projections and expectations about the markets in which we operate, (ii) statements about current projections and expectations of general economic conditions, (iii) statements about specific industry projections and expectations of economic activity, (iv) statements relating to our future operations, prospects, results, and performance, and (v) statements that the cash on hand and additional cash generated from operations together with potential sources of cash through issuance of debt or equity will provide the Company with sufficient liquidity for the next 12 months.
Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties, and other factors, which may cause our actual results, performance, or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors and risks that could affect our results, future performance and capital requirements and cause them to materially differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements include those identified in our Registration Statement on Form 10 under Item 1A “Risk Factors”, as well as other factors that we are currently unable to identify or quantify, but that may exist in the future.
In addition, the foregoing factors may generally affect our business, results of operations and financial position. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date the statements were made. We do not undertake and specifically decline any obligation to update any forward-looking statements. Any information contained on our website: www.endexx.com or any other websites referenced in this Quarterly Report are not part of this Quarterly Report.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this report. In addition to historical financial information, the following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, such as our plans, objectives, expectations, and intentions. Forward-looking statements are statements not based on historical information and which relate to future operations, strategies, financial results, or other developments. Forward-looking statements are based upon estimates, forecasts, and assumptions that are inherently subject to significant business, economic, and competitive uncertainties, and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control and many of which, with respect to future business decisions, are subject to change. These uncertainties and contingencies can affect actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us, or on our behalf. We disclose any obligation to update forward-looking statements. Our actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those discussed under “Forward-Looking Statements,” “Item 1. Overview,” and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” sections in this Report. We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements.

At that time, we adopted our current trading symbol, “EDXC.” In September 2005, PanaMed Corporation acquired VBB, an SaaS provider, through a merger, whereby VBB merged with and into us, and we were the surviving entity. Subsequently, we operated as a diversified technology and SaaS and compliance and tracking systems company, until we shifted our focus to the hemp-derived product industry in August 2014. In October 2018, we changed our name to CBD Unlimited, Inc., and in May 2020, we changed our name back to Endexx Corporation, with CBD Unlimited, Inc., becoming our wholly-owned subsidiary. On January 25, 2021, we filed our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended June 30, 2023 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2022
Revenues
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $118,599, as compared to $418,151 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, a $299,552 (72%) decrease. The decrease in revenue is attributable to the delay in a large wholesale order, which was delayed due to new compliance regulations to ship the product to Italy. We expect revenues to continue to increase in the fourth quarter as Hyla is able to recognize these revenues.
We expect an increase in commercial revenue over the next 12 months as our business model is implemented and expanded and our commercial and retail accounts continue to grow and expand the products being sold in each of their retail locations. Additionally, we will continue to focus on the development of both current and new products while continuing to commercialize existing products lines.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was a profit of $4,127, as compared to a gross profit of $206,792 for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This decrease gross profit for this period was attributable to the decrease in revenues detailed above. The Company expects improved gross profits in the coming quarters further enhanced by improvements in production costs and decreases in inventory impairment between the periods.
5 |
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023, were $754,334, as compared to $839,785 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $85,451. This decrease in operating expenses over the prior period can be attributed to increased advertising expenses and general and administrative expenses, related to the Hyla Transaction, offset by lower payroll expenses and professional fees.
We expect that operating expenses will remain consistent or increase over the next 12 months as our long-term growth strategy will require significant changes in personnel and facilities, offset increased research and development expenses to ensure that products nearing commercialization are brought to market as quickly and as effectively. We cannot provide any assurances that our strategy will be effective.
Other (Income) and Expenses
Other expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $1,271,335, as compared to other expenses of $10,578,346 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, a $9,307,011 improvement. The improvement in other expenses resulted from significant decrease in the change in fair value of derivative liability offset by increases in financing costs and discount amortization and increases in interest expenses.
Derivative liabilities are associated with loans that are convertible or have variable pricing on the equivalent shares of Common Stock. At the end of each period, these derivative liabilities are valued, and the net change is recorded as a gain or loss in other expenses and income.
Loss from Operations and Total Net Loss
Loss from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $750,207, as compared to loss from operations of $632,993 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, an increase in net loss from operations of $117,214. The increase in loss from operations was the result of the decrease in gross revenues partially offset by reduced operating expenses.
Total net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was $2,021,542, including $182,531 loss attributable to non-controlling interest and $1,839,011 net loss directly attributable to the Company. This compares to a total net loss of $11,211,339 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, fully attributable to the Company. This improvement of $9,372,328 in total net loss attributable to the Company is primarily attributable to reduced losses resulting from changes in the fair value of derivative liabilities.
At the end of each period, derivative liabilities are valued, and the net change is recorded as a gain or loss in other expenses and income.
We do not expect to realize net income in the near term as anticipated operational expenses are expected to increase as a result of increased research and development expenses, consulting fees, payroll expenses, and administrative costs as staffing increases. Despite management’s focus on ensuring operating efficiencies, we expect to continue to operate at a loss through fiscal 2023 only in part due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Nine Months Ended June 30, 2023 Compared to Nine Months Ended June 30, 2022
Revenues
Revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2023 were $3,444,686, as compared to $947,428 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022, a $2,497,258 (264%) increase. The increase in revenue is attributable to additional revenues realized from Hyla, which was the subject of the transactions contemplated by our Control Acquisition Agreement, that closed effective August 29, 2022 (the “Hyla Transaction”). The increases in revenues are also partly attributable to improved supply-chain, increased consumer spending and increased marketing efforts in promoting the Company’s products.
6 |
We expect an increase in commercial revenue over the next 12 months as our business model is implemented and expanded and our commercial and retail accounts continue to grow and expand the products being sold in each of their retail locations. Additionally, we will continue to focus on the development of both current and new products while continuing to commercialize existing products lines.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the nine months ended June 30, 2023 was a profit of $532,185, as compared to a gross profit of $398,777 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022. This $133,408 improvement in gross profit for this period was attributable to the closing of the Hyla Transaction. The improved gross profit was further enhanced by improvements in production costs and decreases in inventory impairment between the periods.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 2023, were $2,895,758, as compared to $3,031,662 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022, decrease of $135,904. This improvement in operating expenses over the prior period can be attributed to lower advertising and promotional expenses, professional fees, payroll fees, and research and development expenses, partially offset by higher general and administrative expenses.
We expect that operating expenses will remain consistent or increase over the next 12 months as our long-term growth strategy will require significant changes in personnel and facilities, offset increased research and development expenses to ensure that products nearing commercialization are brought to market as quickly and as effectively. We cannot provide any assurances that our strategy will be effective.
Other (Income) and Expenses
Other expenses for the nine months ended June 30, 2023 were $2,242,647, as compared to other expenses of $13,004,753 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022, a $10,762,106 improvement. The improvement in other expenses resulted from significant decrease in the change in fair value of derivative liability and default penalties offset by increases in financing costs and discount amortization, increases in interest expenses, in addition to gains on settlements of liabilities and gains on disposition of assets in the prior period.
Derivative liabilities are associated with loans that are convertible or have variable pricing on the equivalent shares of Common Stock. At the end of each period, these derivative liabilities are valued, and the net change is recorded as a gain or loss in other expenses and income.
Loss from Operations and Total Net Loss
Loss from operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2023 was $2,363,573, as compared to loss from operations of $2,632,885 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022, an improvement in net loss from operations of $269,312. The improvement in loss from operations was the result of an increase in gross revenues resulting from the Hyla Transaction, and proportionately lower costs of revenues and reduced operating expenses.
Total net loss for the nine months ended June 30, 2023 was $4,606,220, including $742,400 net loss attributable to non-controlling interest and $3,863,820 net loss directly attributable to the Company. This compares to a total net loss of $15,637,638 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022, fully attributable to the Company. This improvement of $11,773,818 in total net loss attributable to the Company is primarily attributable to the change in fair value of derivative liability in addition to improved revenues realized from the Hyla Transaction, lower operating expenses and improved other expenses.
At the end of each period, derivative liabilities are valued, and the net change is recorded as a gain or loss in other expense and income.
We do not expect to realize net income in the near term as anticipated operational expenses are expected to increase as a result of increased research and development expenses, consulting fees, payroll expenses, and administrative costs as staffing increases. Despite management’s focus on ensuring operating efficiencies, we expect to continue to operate at a loss through fiscal 2023 only in part due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Liquidity and Capital Resources – Nine months ended June 30, 2023
Going Concern
We have incurred operating losses since inception and have negative cash flow from operations. As of June 30, 2023, we had a stockholders’ deficit of $14,920,833, a working capital deficit of $23,057,676, an accumulated deficit of $48,262,132 and incurred a net loss of $4,606,220 in the nine months ended June 30, 2023. Additionally, we utilized $1,107,839 in cash for operations and utilized $0 in cash for investing activities during the nine months ended June 30, 2023, while we received $474,790 in cash from financing activities. As a result, our continuation as a going concern is dependent on our ability to obtain additional financing until we can generate sufficient cash flow from operations to meet our obligations. We intend to continue to seek additional debt or equity financing to continue our operations, but there can be no assurance that such financing will be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all.
Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies we may not continue to meet our obligations and continue our operations for the next fiscal year. The continuation of our Company as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain necessary debt or equity financing to continue operations until we begin generating positive cash flow.
As of June 30, 2023, we had a cash position of $23,727. We estimate our operating expenses for the near- and mid-term may continue to exceed the revenues that we may generate, and we may need to raise capital through either debt or equity offerings to continue operations. We are in the early stages of our business. We are required to fund growth from financing activities, and we intend to rely on a combination of equity and debt financings. Due to market conditions and the early stage of our operations, there is considerable risk that we will not be able to raise such financings at all, or on terms that are not overly dilutive to our existing stockholders. We can offer no assurance that we will be able to raise such funds. If we are unable to raise the funds we require for all of our planned operations, we may be forced to reallocate funds from other planned uses and may suffer a significant negative effect on our business plan and operations, including our ability to develop new products and continue our current operations. As a result, our business may suffer, and we may be forced to reduce or discontinue operations.
There is no assurance that we will ever be profitable or that debt or equity financing will be available to us in the amounts, on terms, and at times deemed acceptable to us, if at all. The issuance of additional equity securities by us would result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, would increase our liabilities and future cash commitments. If we are unable to obtain financing in the amounts and on terms deemed acceptable to us, we may be unable to continue our business, as planned, and as a result may be required to scale back or cease operations for our business, the result of which would be that our stockholders would lose some or all of their investment. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
Cash Flow – Operating Activities
For the nine months ended June 30, 2023, our cash used in operating activities amounted to an outflow of $1,107,839, compared to cash used during the nine months ended June 30, 2022 of $1,227,283. The $119,444 improvement in cash used in our operating activities is due to increased revenues, changes in the fair value of derivative liabilities, decreases in pre-paid expenses and decreases in stock-based compensation.
Cash Flow – Financing Activities
For the nine months ended June 30, 2023, our cash provided by financing activities amounted to $474,790, which includes $537,500 in proceeds from the issuance of notes payable and $1,000,000 in proceeds from lines of credit, offset by $992,710 repayments of notes payable and $70,000 repayments of lines of credit.
8 |
For the nine months ended June 30, 2022, our cash provided by financing activities amounted to $1,203,476, which includes $999,853 in proceeds from the issuance of convertible notes, and $203,623 in proceeds from the issuance of notes payable.
Cash Flow – Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities in the nine months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $0 and $9,500, respectively.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Account Receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded at net realizable value. We determine provisions for uncollectible accounts, sales returns, and claims based upon factors including the credit risk and activity of specific distributors and resellers, historical trends, and other information. If we become aware of a specific distributor’s or reseller’s inability to meet its financial obligations, bad debt charges are recorded based on an overall assessment of past due accounts receivable outstanding. In the opinion of management, a provision was deemed necessary for uncollectible accounts.
Inventory
The cost of inventory using the standard cost method, which approximates actual cost based on a first-in, first-out method. Our inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Our inventory consists almost entirely of finished and unfinished goods, and freight, which include vapes, CBD creams, oils, capsules, and sprays. We periodically evaluate and adjust inventories for obsolescence. In the opinion of management, no provision for obsolescence is deemed necessary. The shelf life of all beverage inventory is two years. As of June 30, 2023, we had $586,933 of product in inventory, which was a decrease of $190,979, compared to $777,912 at September 30, 2022. We expect the balance of inventory to remain consistent as most of our new revenues are drop-shipped to wholesale customers.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill arises from business combinations and is generally determined as the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred, plus the fair value of any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree, over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill acquired in a purchase business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if events and circumstances exists that indicate that a goodwill impairment test should be performed. We have selected December 31 as the date to perform the annual impairment test.
Intangible assets represent both indefinite lived and definite lived assets. Trademarks are deemed to have definite useful lives of ten years, are amortized, and are tested annually for impairment. Intangible assets are reported on the balance sheet at cost less accumulated amortization. We have selected December 31 as the date to perform the annual impairment test.
Stock-Based Compensation
FASB’s ASC Topic 718, Stock Compensation (formerly, FASB Statement 123R), prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all stock-based payment transactions in which employee and non-employee services are acquired. We measure the cost of employee and non-employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of the award. Fair value for restricted stock awards is valued using the closing price of our Common Stock on the date of grant. For the nine months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized stock-based compensation expense of $55,000, and $455,800 respectively.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that is material to stockholders.
9 |
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires us to make a number of 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. Such estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates on historical experiences and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and various other factors and circumstances. We believe our estimates and assumptions are reasonable in the circumstances; however, actual results may differ from these estimates under different future conditions.
Item 3 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
As a Smaller Reporting Company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure control and Procedures. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2023, the period covered in this Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
Management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control systems are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, no evaluation of internal control over financial reporting can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been or will be detected.
These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
In June 2022, Serious Promotions, Inc. filed a Petition before the American Arbitration Association seeking monetary damages against Khode, LLC, a joint venture entered into by Serious Promotions and us. Serious Promotions alleges that Khode failed to make certain payments of fees related to the Endorsement and License Agreement entered into by Serious Promotions and its president Khaled Mohamed Khaled (p/k/a DJ Khaled). Serious Promotions seeks $6,250,000 in damages.
In July 2022, Khode, joined as a party by us, filed counterclaims against Serious Promotions, Khaled and Impact Brokers for breach of the Endorsement and License Agreement and related violations of legal duties, seeking damages in an amount no less than $100,000,000.
Although this arbitration is in its early stages, we are confident in our position, will vigorously defend our position, and prosecute our counterclaims, and ultimately expect a ruling in our favor.
We know of no other material proceedings in which any of our directors, officers, or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial stockholder is a party adverse to us or any of our subsidiaries or has a material interest adverse to us or any of our subsidiaries, including, but not limited to:
