FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may be “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements that express our intentions, beliefs, expectations, strategies, predictions or any other statements relating to our future activities or other future events or conditions. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “believe,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” and “would.” These statements are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our business based in part on assumptions made by management. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may, and are likely to, differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements due to numerous factors, including those set forth in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, and our other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and we disclaim any obligation to publicly update or release any revisions to these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by applicable law.

ICONIC BRANDS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019 and 2018

1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Iconic Brands, Inc., formerly Paw Spa, Inc. (“Iconic Brands” or “Iconic”), was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 21, 2005. Effective December 31, 2016, Iconic closed on a May 15, 2015 agreement to acquire a 51% interest in BiVi LLC (“BiVi”), the brand owner of “BiVi 100 percent Sicilian Vodka,” and closed on a December 13, 2016 agreement to acquire a 51% interest in Bellissima Spirits LLC (“Bellissima”), the brand owner of Bellissima sparkling wines. These transactions involved entities under common control of the Company’s chief executive officer and represented a change in reporting entity. The financial statements of the Company have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the operations at BiVi and Bellissima from their inception.

BiVi was organized in Nevada on May 4, 2015. Bellissima was organized in Nevada on November 23, 2015.

Reverse Stock Split

Effective January 18, 2019, the Company effectuated a 1 share for 250 shares reverse stock split which reduced the issued and outstanding shares of common stock at December 31, 2018 from 1,359,941,153 shares to 5,440,312 shares. The accompanying financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Iconic, its three 51% owned subsidiaries BiVi, Bellissima, and Green Grow Farms Inc. (“Green Grow”), and United Spirits, Inc., a variable interest entity of Iconic (see Note 5) (collectively, the “Company”). All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

(b) Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(c) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Generally accepted accounting principles require disclosing the fair value of financial instruments to the extent practicable for financial instruments which are recognized or unrecognized in the balance sheet. The fair value of the financial instruments disclosed herein is not necessarily representative of the amount that could be realized or settled, nor does the fair value amount consider the tax consequences of realization or settlement.

In assessing the fair value of financial instruments, the Company uses a variety of methods and assumptions, which are based on estimates of market conditions and risks existing at the time. For certain instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued expenses, it was estimated that the carrying amount approximated fair value because of the short maturities of these instruments. All debt is carried at face value less any unamortized debt discounts.

(d) Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all liquid investments purchased with original maturities of ninety days or less to be cash equivalents.

F-8

Table of Contents

(e) Accounts Receivable, Net of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company extends unsecured credit to customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates risk by performing credit checks and by actively pursuing past due accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on customer historical experience and the aging of the related accounts receivable. At September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $26,513 and $0, respectively.

(f) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market, with due consideration given to obsolescence and to slow moving items. Inventory at December 31, 2018 consists of cases of BiVi Vodka and cases of Bellissima sparkling wines purchased from our Italian suppliers. Inventory at September 30, 2019 also includes cases of alcoholic beverages and packaging materials relating to our Hooters line of products introduced in August 2019 and raw materials to be harvested by our 51% owned subsidiary Green Grow.

(g) Intellectual Property and Production Rights Intangible Asset

The intellectual property and production rights intangible asset was acquired in connection with our acquisition of a 51% equity interest in Green Grow Farms, Inc. on May 9, 2019 (see Note 8). This intangible asset will be amortized over its five (5) year estimated economic life commencing October 1, 2019.

(h) Long-Lived Assets

The Company tests long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisal in certain circumstances. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.

(i) Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606) which establishes revenue recognition standards. ASU 2014-19 was effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We adopted ASU 2014-09 effective January 1, 2018. ASU 2014-09 has not had a significant effect on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

Revenue from product sales is recognized when all of the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (2) the price is fixed or determinable, (3) collectability is reasonably assured, and (4) delivery has occurred. Persuasive evidence of an arrangement and fixed price criteria are satisfied through purchase orders. Collectability criteria are satisfied through credit approvals. Delivery criteria are satisfied when the products are shipped to a customer and title and risk of loss passes to the customer in accordance with the terms of sale. The Company has no obligation to accept the return of products sold other than for replacement of damaged products. Other than quantity price discounts negotiated with customers prior to billing and delivery (which are reflected as a reduction in sales), the Company does not offer any sales incentives or other rebate arrangements to customers.

(j) Shipping and Handling Costs

Shipping and handling costs to deliver product to customers are reported as operating expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. Shipping and handling costs to purchase inventory are capitalized and expensed to cost of sales when revenue is recognized on the sale of product to customers.

(k) Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation”. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, stock-based compensation was $775,700 and $23,250, respectively.

(l) Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the assets and liability method. Current income taxes are provided in accordance with the laws of the respective taxing authorities. Deferred income taxes are provided for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is not more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized.

(m) Net Income (Loss) per Share

Basic net income (loss) per common share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and to be issued to Escrow Agent (see Note 13) during the period of the financial statements.

Diluted net income (loss) per common share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares and to be issued to Escrow Agent (see Note 13) and dilutive securities (such as stock options, warrants, and convertible securities) outstanding. Dilutive securities having an anti-dilutive effect on diluted net income (loss) per share are excluded from the calculation.

(n) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU 2016-2 (Topic 842) which establishes a new lease accounting model for lessees. Under the new guidance, lessees are required to recognize right of use assets and liabilities for most leases having terms of 12 months or more. We adopted this new accounting guidance using the effective date transition method, which permits entities to apply the new lease standards using a modified retrospective transition approach at the date of adoption. As such, historical periods will continue to be measured and presented under the previous guidance while current and future periods are subject to this new accounting guidance. Upon adoption we recorded a $100,681 right-of-use asset related to our one operating lease (see Note 15e) and a $100,681 lease liability.

On July 13, 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-11. Among other things, ASU 2017-11 provides guidance that eliminates the requirement to consider “down round” features when determining whether certain financial instruments or embedded features are indexed to an entity’s stock and need to be classified as liabilities. ASU 2017-11 provides for entities to recognize the effect of a down round feature only when it is triggered and then as a dividend and a reduction to income available to common stockholders in basic earnings per share. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018; early adoption is permitted. Accordingly, effective January 1, 2019, the Company has reflected a $2,261,039 reduction of the derivative liability on warrants (see Note 12) and a $2,261,039 cumulative effect adjustment reduction of accumulated deficit.

Certain other accounting pronouncements have been issued by the FASB and other standard setting organizations which are not yet effective and have not yet been adopted by the Company. The impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations from adoption of these standards is not expected to be material.

(o) Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has sustained significant net losses which have resulted in an accumulated deficit at September 30, 2019 of $21,302,141 and has experienced periodic cash flow difficulties, all of which raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining additional working capital and attaining profitable operations. The management of the Company has developed a strategy which it believes will accomplish these objectives and which will enable the Company to continue operations for the coming year. However, there is no assurance that these objectives will be met. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

3. INVESTMENT IN BIVI LLC

On May 15, 2015, Iconic entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement by and among the members of BiVi LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“BiVi”), under which Iconic acquired a 51% majority interest in BiVi in exchange for the issuance of (a) 4,000 shares of restricted common stock and (b) 1,000 shares of newly created Series C Convertible Preferred Stock.

Prior to May 15, 2015, BiVi was beneficially owned and controlled by Richard DeCicco, the controlling shareholder and chief executive officer of Iconic Brands, Inc.

4. INVESTMENT IN BELLISSIMA SPIRITS LLC

On December 13, 2016, Iconic entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Bellissima Spirits LLC (“Bellissima”) and Bellissima’s members under which Iconic acquired a 51% majority interest

in Bellissima in exchange for the issuance of a total of 10 shares of newly designated Iconic Series D Convertible Preferred Stock. Each share of Iconic Series D Convertible Preferred Stock was convertible into the equivalent of 5.1% of Iconic common stock issued and outstanding at the time of conversion.

Prior to December 13, 2016, Bellissima was controlled by Richard DeCicco, the controlling shareholder and chief executive officer of Iconic.

Amount due to a former Bellissima consultant pursuant to a Settlement and Release Agreement dated February 7, 2019, due December 31, 2019		50,000

11. DERIVATIVE LIABILITY ON CONVERTIBLE DEBT

In September 2018, the then Company entered into Securities Exchange Agreements and other agreements with holders of all convertible debt then outstanding to have such debt satisfied (which occurred effective October 4, 2018 – see Note 10). Accordingly, the Company reduced the then derivative liability from $255,294 at September 30, 2018 to $0.

12. DERIVATIVE LIABILITY ON WARRANTS

From September 2017 to November 2017, in connection with the sale of a total of 480,000 shares of common stock (see Note 13), the Company issued a total of 480,000 Common Stock Purchase Warrants (the “Warrants”) to the respective investors. The Warrants were exercisable into ICNB common stock at a price of $2.50 per share, were to expire five years from date of issuance, and contained “down round” price protection.

Effective May 21, 2018, in connection with the sale of a total of 120,000 shares of Series E Preferred Stock (see Note 13), the Company issued a total of 480,000 Warrants to four investors. These warrants were exercisable into ICNB common stock at a price of $2.50 per share, were to expire five years from date of issuance, and contained “down round” price protection.

F-13

Table of Contents

The down round provision of the above Warrants required a reduction in the exercise price if there were future issuances of common stock equivalents at a lower price than the $2.50 exercise price of the Warrants. Accordingly, we recorded the $2,261,039 fair value of the Warrants at December 31, 2018 as a derivative liability. The $1,565,039 increase in the fair value of the derivative liability from $696,000 at December 31, 2017 to $2,261,039 at December 31, 2018 was charged to expense from derivative liability.

Assumptions used to calculate the fair value of the Warrants at December 31, 2018 include (1) stock price of $0.95 per share, (2) exercise prices from $0.625 to $2.50 per share, (3) terms ranging from 2.25 years to 4.5 years, (4) expected volatility of 148%, and (5) risk free interest rates range from 2.46% to 2.51%.

Effective January 1, 2019 (see Note 2), the Company adopted ASU 2017-11 and reduced the $2,261,039 derivative liability on warrants at December 31, 2018 to $0 and recognized a $2,261,039 cumulative effect adjustment reduction of accumulated deficit.

13. CAPITAL STOCK

Preferred Stock

The one share of Series A Preferred Stock, which was issued to Richard DeCicco on September 10, 2009, entitles the holder to two votes for every share of Common Stock Deemed Outstanding and has no conversion or dividend rights.

The 1000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, which were issued to Richard DeCicco on May 15, 2015 pursuant to the Securities Exchange Agreement (see Note 3) for the Company’s 51% investment in BiVi, entitled the holder in the event of a Sale (as defined) to receive out of the proceeds of such Sale (in whatever form, be it cash, securities, or other assets), a distribution from the Company equal to 76.93% of all such proceeds received by the Company prior to any distribution of such proceeds to all other classes of equity securities, including any series of preferred stock designated subsequent to this Series C Preferred Stock. Effective March 27, 2019, pursuant to a Preferred Stock Exchange Agreement, Mr. DeCicco exchanged the 1,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock for 1,000,000 shares of Company common stock.

The 10 shares of Series D Preferred Stock, which were issued to Richard DeCicco and Roseann Faltings (5 shares each) on December 13, 2016 pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (See Note 4) for the Company’s 51% investment in Bellissima, entitled the holders to convert each share of Series D Preferred Stock to the equivalent of 5.1% of the common stock issued and outstanding at the time of conversion. Effective March 27, 2019, pursuant to a Preferred Stock Exchange Agreement, Mr. DeCicco and Ms. Faltings exchanged the 10 shares of Series D Preferred Stock for 1,000,000 shares of Company common stock (500,000 shares each).

Effective May 21, 2018, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with the four investors who purchased 480,000 shares of common stock pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement dated October 27, 2017. The Exchange Agreement provided for the exchange of the 480,000 shares of common stock for 1,200,000 shares of Series E Preferred Stock. Each share of Series E Preferred Stock is convertible into 0.4 shares of common stock, is entitled to 0.4 votes on all matters to come before the common stockholders or shareholders generally, is entitled to dividends on an as-converted-to-common stock basis, is entitled to a distribution preference of $0.25 upon liquidation, and is not redeemable.

Also effective May 21, 2018, the Company sold a total of 1,200,000 shares of Series E Preferred Stock and 480,000 warrants to the four investors referred to in the preceding paragraph for $300,000 cash pursuant to an Amendment No. 1 to Securities Purchase Agreement.

Effective October 4, 2018, the Company closed on the first tranche of the Securities Purchase Agreement dated September 27, 2018 with nine (9) accredited investors for the sale of an aggregate of 4,650,000 shares of our Series E convertible preferred stock and warrants to acquire 1,860,000 shares of our common stock (at an exercise price of $1.25 per share for a period of five years) for gross proceeds of $1,162,500. The first tranche sale was for 1,550,000 shares of our Series E Preferred stock and warrants to acquire 620,000 shares of our common stock for gross proceeds of $387,500.

As a condition to the closing at the first tranche, the Company entered into Securities Exchange Agreements with holders of convertible notes totaling $519,499 who exchanged their convertible notes for an aggregate of 2,077,994 shares of our Series E Preferred stock plus warrants to acquire 831,198 shares of our common stock.

14. INCOME TAXES

No income taxes were recorded in the periods presented since the Company had taxable losses in these periods.

The provision for (benefit from) income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the statutory United States federal income tax rate of 21% for the periods presented to income (loss) before income taxes. The sources of the difference are as follows:

	Nine months ended September 30,
	2019			2018
Expected tax at 21%	$	(580,868	)	$	(313,754	)
Nondeductible stock-based compensation		162,897			-
Nondeductible expense (nontaxable income) from derivative liability		-			65,955
Nondeductible amortization of debt discount		-			22,648
Increase (decrease) in valuation allowance		417,971			225,151

Income tax provision	$	-		$	-

Significant components of the Company's deferred income tax assets are as follows:

	September 30,			December 31,
	2019			2018

Net operating loss carryforward	$	4,176,379		$	3,758,408

Less valuation allowance		(4,176,379	)		(3,758,408	)

Deferred income tax assets - net	$	-		$	-

Based on management’s present assessment, the Company has not yet determined that a deferred tax asset attributable to the future utilization of the net operating loss carryforward as of September 30, 2019 will be realized. Accordingly, the Company has maintained a 100% valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset in the financial statements at September 30, 2019. The Company will continue to review this valuation allowance and make adjustments as appropriate.

Current United States income tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited.

All tax years remain subject to examination by major taxing jurisdictions.

Forward-looking statements are, by their very nature, uncertain and risky. These risks and uncertainties include international, national and local general economic and market conditions; demographic changes; our ability to sustain, manage, or forecast growth; our ability to successfully make and integrate acquisitions; raw material costs and availability; new product development and introduction; existing government regulations and changes in, or the failure to comply with, government regulations; adverse publicity; competition; the loss of significant customers or suppliers; fluctuations and difficulty in forecasting operating results; changes in business strategy or development plans; business disruptions; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the ability to protect technology; and other risks that might be detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Although the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Statement reflect the good faith judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by them. Consequently, and because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, the actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports as we attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations and prospects.

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations of the Company is based upon, and should be read in conjunction with, its unaudited financial statements and related notes elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Summary Overview

We are a global beverage company with expertise in developing, from inception to completion, alcoholic beverages for ourselves and third parties. We also market and place products into national distribution through long standing industry relationships. We engage in “Celebrity Branding” of beverages, procuring products from around the world and branding products with internationally recognized celebrities.

We intend to seek, investigate and, if such investigation warrants, acquire an interest in one or more business opportunities presented to it by persons or firms who or which desire to seek the perceived advantages of a publicly held corporation.

Our Products

BiVi LLC, our subsidiary, is made up of BiVi 100 percent Sicilian Vodka. BiVi LLC’s mission is to promote and support the sales endeavors of the distribution network through targeted and national marketing endeavors and working with celebrity partner Chazz Palminteri.

Bellissima Spirits LLC, our subsidiary, entered into a License Agreement with Christie Brinkley, Inc. an entity owned by Christie Brinkley, to use Brinkley’s endorsement, signature, and other intellectual property owned by Bellissima Spirits LLC. Bellissima by Christie Brinkley is a line of Organic Prosecco. The line includes a DOC Brut, Sparkling Rose and a Zero Sugar, Zero Carb option which are All Natural and Gluten Free with all Certified Organic and Vegan.

Each of Bivi and Bellissima have granted United Spirits, a variable interest entity of the Company, the exclusive right to sell their products globally.

Hooters brand products include a line of premium spirits designed by the Company’s management, currently consisting of Vodka, Gin, American Whiskey, Silver and Gold Tequila products from Mexico, and light and dark rum products from Puerto Rico, as well as a craft Cinnamon Whiskey. United Spirits has granted us the exclusive right to market and distribute the Hooters brand products to (a) “Hooters” branded restaurants, (b) liquor distributors and (c) off-premise, retail establishments.

Reverse Stock Split

Effective January 18, 2019, shares of our common stock were subject to a 1-for-250 reverse stock split which reduced the issued and outstanding shares of common stock at December 31, 2018 from 1,359,941,153 shares to 5,440,312 shares. The discussion below and the accompanying financial statements have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split.

Going Concern

As a result of our current financial condition, we have received a report from our independent registered public accounting firm for our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 that includes an explanatory paragraph describing the uncertainty as to our ability to continue as a going concern. In order to continue as a going concern we must effectively balance many factors and generate more revenue so that we can fund our operations from our sales and revenues. If we are not able to do this we may not be able to continue as an operating company. Until we are able to grow revenues sufficient to meet our operating expenses, we must continue to raise capital by issuing debt or through the sale of our stock. There is no assurance that our cash flow will be adequate to satisfy our operating expenses and capital requirements.

The increase in sales was a result of primarily due to the August 2019 introduction of Hooters brand products.

Cost of Sales

Cost of sales was $120,790, or approximately 45% of sales, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and $125,304, or approximately 58% of sales, for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Cost of sales includes the cost of the products purchased from our suppliers, freight-in costs and import duties.

Officers Compensation

Officers compensation was $103,750 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and $429,588 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, a decrease of $325,838.

Professional and Consulting Fees

Professional and consulting fees were $147,048 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and $76,370 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $70,678. Professional and consulting fees consist primarily of legal and accounting and auditing services. The increase was a result of costs associated with getting our financial statements audited, filing a registration statement, and becoming a fully-reporting issuer.

Royalties

Royalties were $25,243, or approximately 9% of sales, for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and $21,074 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $4,169. Royalties increased primarily due to increased sales in 2019.

Marketing and Advertising

Marketing and advertising expenses were $305,222 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and $58,724 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $246,498 or approximately 420%.

Other Operating Expenses

Other operating expenses were $430,023 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and $43,849 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $386,174 or approximately 881%. The increase was primarily related to increased investor relations expenses.

Income (Loss) from Operations

We had a (loss) from operations of ($1,004,169) for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and ($620,523) for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $383,646 or approximately 62%. Our loss from operations increased, as set forth above, primarily because certain operating expenses, marketing and advertising and other operating expenses, increased.

Other Income/Expense

Total other income was $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and $300,615 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The decrease was primarily due to the absence in 2019 of any derivative liability income.

Our previously outstanding convertible notes contained variable conversion features based on the future trading price of our common stock. Therefore, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes were indeterminate. Accordingly, we recorded the fair value of the embedded conversion features at December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2018 as a derivative liability. The fair value of the derivative liability dropped to zero at December 31, 2018 after we entered into Securities Exchange Agreements with the holders of all convertible debt. For further details, see Note 8 of our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

Net Income (Loss)

We had a net (loss) of ($1,004,169) for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and ($319,908) for the three months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $684,261 or approximately 214%. Our net loss increased, as set forth above, primarily because certain operating expenses, primarily marketing and advertising and other operating expenses, increased, and because of the decrease in our derivative liability income.

Net Loss attributable to Noncontrolling Interests in Subsidiaries and Variable Interest Entity

The net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries and variable interest entity represents 49% of the net loss of Bellissima, BiVi and Green Grow (which we own 51%) and 100% of United Spirits (which we own 0%) and is accounted for as a reduction in the net loss attributable to the Company. This net loss was $35,846 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and $12,494 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $23,352.

Net Loss Attributable to Iconic Brands, Inc.

The net loss attributable to Iconic Brands, Inc. was ($968,323) for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and ($307,414) for the three months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $660,909 or approximately 215%. The net loss from Iconic Brands increased primarily as a result of higher marketing and advertising expenses ($246,498), higher other operating expenses ($386,174), and lower other income ($300,615), offset partially by lower officers compensation ($335,838).

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Introduction

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018, we had negative operating cash flows. Our cash on hand as of September 30, 2019 was $1,370,302, which was derived from the sale of Series F preferred stock and warrants. Our monthly cash flow burn rate for 2018 was approximately $146,000, and our monthly burn rate through the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was approximately $268,000. We have strong medium to long term cash needs. We anticipate that these needs will be satisfied through the issuance of debt or the sale of our securities until such time as our cash flows from operations will satisfy our cash flow needs.

Our cash, current assets, total assets, current liabilities, and total liabilities as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, were as follows:

	September 30,		December 31,
	2019		2018		Change

Cash	$	1,370,302	$	191,463	$	1,178,839
Total Current Assets		2,570,087		563,239		2,006,848
Total Assets		4,101,904		563,239		3,538,665
Total Current Liabilities		1,981,943		1,339,566		642,377
Total Liabilities	$	1,999,488	$	3,600,605	$	(1,601,117	)

Our cash increased $1,178,839 and total current assets increased $2,006,848. Our total current liabilities increased $642,377 as our accounts payable and accrued expenses increased, reflecting our increase in professional and consulting fees. Our total liabilities decreased $1,601,117. Our stockholders’ (deficiency) equity increased from ($3,037,366) to $2,102,416 due primarily to proceeds from the sale of preferred stock.

In order to repay our obligations in full or in part when due, we will be required to raise significant capital from other sources. There is no assurance, however, that we will be successful in these efforts.

Table of Contents

Cash Requirements

Our cash on hand as of September 30, 2019 was $1,370,302. Based on our minimal sales and annualized monthly burn rate of approximately $268,000 per month, we will need to raise additional funding through strategic relationships, public or private equity or debt financings. If such funding is not available, or not available on terms acceptable to us, our current development plans may be curtailed.

We have funded our operations from proceeds from the sale of equity and debt securities. We will require significant additional capital to make the investments we need to execute our longer-term business plan. Our ability to successfully raise sufficient funds through the sale of debt or equity securities when needed is subject to many risks and uncertainties and, even if we are successful, future equity issuances would result in dilution to its existing stockholders and any future debt securities may contain covenants that limit our operations or ability to enter into certain transactions.

Sources and Uses of Cash

Operations

We had net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 of $(2,408,872), compared to $(1,464,959) for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Financing

Our net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $3,602,711, compared to $362,107 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, which consisted principally of proceeds from the sale of our Series F preferred stock and warrants.

July 2019 Financing

On July 18, 2019, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreements (collectively, the “July 2019 Purchase Agreements”) with the certain accredited investors pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of 3,125 shares of our series F convertible preferred stock (the “Series F Convertible Preferred Stock”), plus warrants (the “July 2019 Warrants”) to acquire 5,000,000 million shares of our common stock for gross proceeds of $3,125,000, before deducting placement agent and other offering expenses. Each share of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock has a stated value of $1,000 per share (the “Stated Value”), and is convertible, at any time and from time to time at the option of the holder, into such number of shares of Common Stock (subject to certain limitations) determined by dividing the Stated Value by $0.625 (the “Conversion Price”), subject to adjustment.

The Warrants are exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance at an exercise price of $0.625 per share, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise Price”); provided, however, in the event that 90% of the lowest VWAP (as defined in the Warrant) during the three (3) Trading Days immediately following the Effective Date (as defined in the Warrant and such price, the “Reset Price”) is less than the then Exercise Price, then the Exercise Price shall be reduced to equal the Reset Price; provided, further, if the initial Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission prior to the Liquidity Date (as defined in the Warrant) and does not register all of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) for resale by the Holders and in the event that 90% of the lowest VWAP during the three (3) Trading Days immediately following the Liquidity Date (the “Liquidity Market Price”) is less than the then Exercise Price, then the Exercise Price shall be further reduced to equal to Liquidity Market Price. The Investors may exercise the Warrants on a cashless basis if the shares of common stock underlying the Warrants are not then registered pursuant to an effective registration statement.

The Conversion Price of the Series F Convertible Preferred Stock and the exercise price of the Warrants are subject to full ratchet anti-dilution adjustment for subsequent lower price issuances by the Company, as well as customary adjustments provisions for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations and the like; provided, however, that in no event shall the Conversion Price or the Exercise Price be reduced to less than $0.25 (the “Floor Price”), subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions of the Common Stock that occur after the date of the July 2019 Purchase Agreement, provided if the Reset Price or Liquidity Market Price is less than the Floor Price, the Exercise Price shall equal the Floor Price. In addition, in the event that either the Effective Date or the Liquidity Date occurs, and thereafter for any reason the Holder is unable to sell any of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) (assuming cashless exercise of the Warrants) pursuant to a registration statement or exemption from registration under the Securities Act for at least 30 consecutive Trading Days without limitation, then additional resets shall occur under the Warrant following each resumption of the investor’s ability to resell the Registrable Securities (each, a “Resumption Date”) until such time that a 30 consecutive Trading Day period is maintained and the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to equal the lesser of (i) the then effective Exercise Price and (ii) the greater of (A) 90% of the lowest VWAP during the three (3) Trading Days immediately following the applicable Resumption Date and (B) the Floor Price.

Each of the Selling Stockholders have contractually agreed to restrict their ability to exercise the Warrants and convert the Series F Convertible Preferred Stock such that the number of shares of the Company common stock held by each of them and their affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 4.99% or 9.99% (at the election of the Investor) of the Company’s then issued and outstanding shares of common stock. As a result, as of the date of this Prospectus, a Selling Stockholder cannot own more than approximately 616,458 shares after giving effect to any issuance to the Selling Stockholder. If our total number of outstanding shares of common stock increases, or if the Selling Stockholder subsequently disposes of shares acquired from us in the open market, then we would be able to sell more shares to the Selling Stockholder before reaching the 4.99% threshold.

The July 2019 Purchase Agreements also provide that until the 18 month anniversary of the Effective Date (as defined in the July 2019 Purchase Agreements), in the event of a subsequent financing (except for certain exempt issuances as provided in the July 2019 Purchase Agreements) by the Company, each Investor that invested over $200,000 pursuant to the July 2019 Purchase Agreements will have the right to participate in such subsequent financing up to an amount equal to the Investor’s proportionate share of the subsequent financing based on such Investor’s participation in this private placement on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in the subsequent financing. The July 2019 Purchase Agreements also provide that for as long as the Series F Convertible Preferred Stock or Warrants are outstanding, if the Company effects a subsequent financing, an Investor may elect, in its sole discretion, to exchange all or a portion of the Series F Convertible Preferred Stock then held by such Investor for any securities issued in a subsequent financing on a $1.00 for $1.00 basis, provided such subsequent financing is not a firm commitment underwritten offering.

From the date of the July 2019 Purchase Agreements until the date that is the earlier of (i) six (6) months following the Effective Date (as defined in the July 2019 Purchase Agreements) and (ii) the date that the VWAP for 10 consecutive Trading Days following the Effective Date is greater than $1.25, subject to adjustment, the Company shall issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of common stock or Common Stock Equivalents (as defined in the July 2019 Purchase Agreements).

We also entered into separate Registration Rights Agreements with the investors, pursuant to which the Company agreed to undertake to file a registration statement to register the resale of the shares underlying the Series F Convertible Preferred Stock and Warrants within thirty (30) days following the closing date (the “Filing Date”), to cause such registration statement to be declared effective within 60 days following the earlier of (i) the date that the registration statement is filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and (ii) the Filing Date, and to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement until all of such shares of Common Stock have been sold or are otherwise able to be sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act, without any restrictions. If we fail to file the registration statement or have it declared effective by the dates set forth above, among other things, the Company is obligated to pay the investors liquidated damages in the amount of 1% of their subscription amount, per month, until such events are satisfied.

Exchange of Series E Preferred Stock; Securities Exchange Agreements

Concurrently with the closing of the financing transaction described above, we entered into Securities Exchange Agreements with certain holders of our Series E Convertible Preferred Stock to exchange their Series E Convertible Preferred Stock for an aggregate of 681.25 shares of our Series F Convertible Preferred Stock.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements; Commitments and Contractual Obligations

As of September 30, 2019, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K and did not have any commitments or contractual obligations.

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

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We conducted an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, as of September 30, 2019, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, including to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of September 30, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses identified and described in our Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting filed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our principal executive officers do not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. Although our disclosure controls and procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and our principal executive officers are determined to make our disclosure controls and procedures effective at doing so, a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system 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 all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented if there exists in an individual a desire to do so. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this report, the three month period ended September 30, 2019, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
