NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS OF ACQUIRED SALES CORP.

Acquired Sales Corp. (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “Acquired Sales”, the “Company”, “AQSP”, “Acquired”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”, etc.) was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 2, 1986. The Company does not currently have any business or any sources of revenue.

The Company wants to acquire all or a portion of one or more operating businesses.

Management of the Company currently is exclusively exploring potential acquisitions of all or a portion of one or more operating businesses involving the manufacture and sale of cannabidiol (CBD)-infused products such as beverages, muscle/joint rubs, oils, crystals, tinctures, bath bombs, isolate, relief balms, elixirs, body washes, med sticks, lotions, vape pens and cartridges, shatter, and gummies (a “CBD-Infused Products Company”).

In order to consummate a particular acquisition of a CBD-Infused Products Company, management of the Company is open-minded to the concept of also acquiring all or a portion of one or more operating businesses and/or assets that are related to such CBD-Infused Products Company, for example operating businesses and/or assets involving distilled spirits, beer, wine, hemp, paraphernalia, cannabis, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)-infused products, and real estate. 

Signing of Letter of Intent to Acquire 100% of the Ownership Interests of CBD Lion LLC

On May 8, 2019, Acquired Sales Corp. (the “Company”), Gerard M. Jacobs (“GJacobs”) and William C. “Jake” Jacobs (“WJacobs”) entered into a Letter of Intent with CBD Lion LLC (“Lion”) and its owners (the “Lion Owners”) to, subject to a number of conditions, acquire 100% of the ownership of Lion (the “Transaction”). The consideration to be paid by the Company in the proposed acquisition of Lion is: two million dollars ($2,000,000) in cash, plus unregistered common stock of the Company (the "Stock Consideration") in an amount that is the greater of: (i) five million (5,000,000) shares or (ii) a number of shares with a value at closing of the Transaction, based on the Company’s share price, equal to 50% of the value of the aggregate consideration deemed paid to the Lion Owners for their ownership interests in Lion, which could hypothetically increase the Stock Consideration to a number significantly higher than five million (5,000,000). The Lion Owners shall have "piggyback registration rights" for the common stock shares underlying the Stock Consideration and "demand registration rights" that are triggered if no registration statement covering the Stock Consideration is filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission within 120 days following the closing of the Transaction. In addition, the Letter of Intent requires that at the closing of the Transaction, the Company shall cause up to four hundred sixty-two thousand four hundred thirty dollars ($462,430) of related party debt owed by Lion to be repaid in full. 

The terms of the proposed Transaction must be set forth in a definitive agreement. There are no assurances that the Company will be successful in negotiating an acceptable definitive agreement, when or whether a definitive agreement will be reached between the parties, or that the proposed Transaction will be consummated. Even if a definitive agreement is executed, the terms of the proposed Transaction may change materially from the terms set forth in the Letter of Intent. There will be many conditions to closing of the Transaction, many of which are outside of the parties’ control and we cannot predict whether these conditions will be satisfied. There are no assurances when or if closing of the Transaction will occur, even if the parties successfully negotiate and sign a definitive agreement.

Closing of the acquisition of Lion is subject to a number of conditions, including but not limited to the completion of due diligence investigation of Lion by the Company that is acceptable to the Company, completion of a capital raise by the Company of at least $4 million, completion of an audit of Lion acceptable to the Company, execution of definitive acquisition documents, execution of employment agreements with certain key Lion executives, obtaining necessary third-party approvals, including a tax opinion to be provided by Lion’s tax counsel indicating that the proposed Transaction will qualify as a tax-free reorganization, and completion of all necessary securities filings. In the event that most of the foregoing conditions are met, as detailed in the Letter of Intent, prior to the closing of the proposed Transaction, the Company will make a $300,000 loan to Lion to be used by Lion exclusively for growth capital.

The Company is currently engaged in due diligence of Lion and has not yet started to negotiate a definitive agreement for the proposed Transaction. The Letter of Intent will terminate if (i) no audit of Lion satisfactory to the Company has been delivered by August 31, 2019; the Company fails to raise $4 million by September 30, 2019; or (iii) the proposed Transaction has not closed by October 31, 2019.

Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

The Letter of Intent contains customary provisions prohibiting Lion from soliciting or encouraging any other acquisition proposal or entering into any negotiations or agreements for an alternative acquisition or financing transaction prior to the termination of the Letter of Intent.

In the event that the proposed acquisition of Lion is completed, the Letter of Intent requires that as soon as practicable following the closing of the proposed sale, the Company will change its name to "CBD Lion Corp.” and request a new trading symbol that better relates to the new proposed name.

Stock Sale and Purchase Agreement - Ablis Holding Company

Ablis Holding Company ("Ablis") is a rapidly growing leader in the exciting CBD-infused beverage industry. Ablis' all-natural, shelf-stable, GMO-free, non-alcoholic, lemon ginger, cranberry blood orange, and 0 calorie lemon water beverages target the mainstream health market and contain no THC. Ablis also manufactures and sells CBD-infused rubs, oils and crystals. Ablis' beverages are now being distributed in 11 states, online throughout the country, Puerto Rico and Guam. Also, Silver Moon Brewing, a brewery in Bend, has recently begun producing and selling Hazibliss, Oregon’s first hemp CBD-infused draft beer that incorporates Ablis’ cranberry blood orange CBD beverage.

On April 30, 2019, the Company, GJacobs, and WJacobs entered into a Stock Sale and Purchase Agreement with Ablis, Ablis, Inc., and James A. Bendis (“Bendis”) wherein the Company paid $399,200 for a post transaction 4.99% ownership of Ablis' equity. Ablis is in the business of manufacturing and sale of CBD-infused beverages, and CBD-infused products. The Stock Sale and Purchase Agreement requires that Ablis use a portion of the purchase proceeds to pay off at least $381,000 of its liabilities. Another portion of the purchase proceeds will make capital available for expanded off-line and online advertising, and additional staff and equipment.

The Stock Sale and Purchase Agreement also sets out terms for an additional equity purchase of Ablis such that the Company may purchase up to an additional 15% of Ablis for $1,200,000 so that the Company would then own 19.99% of the ownership equity of Ablis. The Company desires to purchase up to an additional 15% of the common stock of Ablis, but doing so will only be possible if the Company closes on the sale of additional Series A Convertible Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock") or otherwise raises capital.

The management team of Ablis will continue to lead Ablis. The terms of the Stock Sale and Purchase Agreement entitle GJacobs to be a member of the board of directors of Ablis, entitles WJacobs, to be provided with access to Ablis' financial information, grants WJacobs, financial oversight functions over Ablis, and allows WJacobs the right to provide consulting/advisory services to Ablis. WJacobs’ reasonable expenses will be covered by Ablis. The Stock Sale and Purchase Agreement also requires that GJacobs and WJacobs be introduced to the owners of Ablis’ CBD isolate suppliers, and any other companies in the hemp, CBD and cannabis industries with whom Ablis and/or Bendis have relationships, and whom may potentially be interested in entering into a stock sale or merger with the Company.

The Stock Sale and Purchase Agreement requires that Ablis evaluate and seriously consider a sale of Ablis or taking Ablis public within 60 months from April 30, 2019 and that it use commercially reasonable best efforts, to close a mutually acceptable alternative exit opportunity for the Company within 72 months from April 30, 2019.

The Company’s investment in Ablis made the Company a minority owner of Ablis. As a minority owner, the Company will not be able to recognize any portion of Ablis’ revenues or earnings in the Company’s financial statements. The Company may, at some point, receive commissions for helping to sell Ablis' products either online or offline. The Company’s investment in Ablis will be tested for potential impairment of value on a quarterly basis.

Stock Purchase Agreement - Bendistillery Inc. and Bend Spirits, Inc.

Founded in 1996, Bendistillery Inc. ("Bendistillery") is an award-winning craft distillery, with an outstanding reputation for producing Crater Lake Spirits brands including vodkas, gins, whiskeys, and white label brands offered through Bend Spirits, Inc. ("Bend Spirits").

On April 30, 2019, the Company, GJacobs, and WJacobs entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Bendistillery, Bend Spirits, Bendis Homes Pinehurst, LLC, an Oregon limited liability company (“Landowner”), Bendis, and Alan T. Dietrich (“Dietrich”) wherein the Company paid $1,347,300 for a post transaction 4.99% ownership of Bendistillery’s equity and $149,700 for a post transaction 4.99% ownership of Bend Spirits’ equity. Bendistillery and Bend Spirits are in the business of manufacturing and sale of alcoholic beverages, and the manufacturing of CBD-infused beverages and CBD-infused products. The Stock Purchase Agreement requires that Bendistillery and Bend Spirits use a portion of the purchase proceeds to pay off at least $835,000 of their collective liabilities. Another portion of the purchase proceeds will make capital available for expanded off-line and online advertising, and additional staff and equipment.

The Stock Purchase Agreement also sets out terms for an additional equity purchase of Bendistillery such that the Company may purchase up to an additional 15% of Bendistillery for $4,050,000 so that the Company would then own 19.99% of the ownership equity of Bendistillery. Per the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company may also purchase up to an additional 15% of Bend Spirits for $450,000 such that the Company would then own 19.99% of the ownership equity of Bend Spirits. The Company desires to purchase up to an additional 15% of the common stock of each of Bendistillery and Bend Spirits under the Stock Purchase Agreement, but doing so will only be possible if the Company closes on the sale of additional Preferred Stock or otherwise raises capital, and receives approval to do so from the Oregon Liquor Control Commission.

Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, Landowner (as landlord) and Bendistillery (as tenant) have entered into a long-term lease of the 23 acres in Tumalo outside Bend, Oregon, where Bendistillery and Bend Spirits conduct their businesses (the “Real Estate”), which lease (the “Lease”) is consistent with the following terms: the initial term of the Lease is 20 years at a rent of $17,500 per month; Tenant has the right, in its sole discretion, to exercise a series of options to extend the term of the Lease up to a maximum of 99 years; and Tenant has a 60-day right of first refusal if Landowner ever decides to sell all or any portion of the Real Estate. Bendis is the owner of Landowner.

The management teams of Bendistillery and Bend Spirits will continue to lead their respective companies. The terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement entitle GJacobs to be a member of the board of directors of Bendistillery and Bend Spirits, entitle WJacobs to be provided with access to financial information, grants WJacobs financial oversight functions over Bendistillery and Bend Spirits, and allows WJacobs the right to provide consulting/advisory services to Bendistillery and Bend Spirits. WJacobs’ reasonable expenses will be covered by Bendistillery and Bend Spirits, as well as an advisory fee of not less than $5,000 per quarter. The Stock Purchase Agreement also requires that GJacobs and WJacobs be introduced to the owners of Deschutes Brewery, Silver Moon Brewing, LBD Beverage, and any other companies in the distilled spirits, beer, wine, hemp, CBD and cannabis industries with whom Bendistillery, Bend Spirits, Bendis and/or Dietrich have relationships, and whom may potentially be interested in entering into a stock sale or merger with the Company.

The Stock Purchase Agreement requires that Bendistillery and Bend Spirits evaluate and seriously consider a sale of Bendistillery and Bend Spirits or taking them public within 60 months from April 30, 2019 and that they use commercially reasonable best efforts to close a mutually acceptable alternative exit opportunity for the Company within 72 months from April 30, 2019.

The Company’s investments in Bendistillery and Bend Spirits made the Company a minority owner of these companies. As a minority owner, the Company will not be able to recognize any portion of Bendistillery’s or Bend Spirits’ revenues or earnings in the Company’s financial statements. The Company may, at some point, receive commissions for helping sell Bendistillery’s products either online or offline. The Company’s investments in Bendistillery and Bend Spirits will be tested for potential impairment in value on a quarterly basis.

Acceptance of Subscriptions From Accredited Investors to Purchase Newly Issued Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

Between February 27, 2019 and May 13, 2019, the Company accepted subscriptions from accredited investors to purchase 66,150 shares of newly issued Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $6,615,000 in cash. These 66,150 shares of Preferred Stock are convertible at the option of the holders into 6,615,000 shares of newly issued common stock of the Company, or $1.00 per share of common stock of the Company. The Company has committed to file a registration statement covering the shares of newly issued common stock of the Company into which the Preferred Stock can be converted (the "Registration Statement"). The Preferred Stock will receive an annual dividend, and will be subject to mandatory conversion, under terms and conditions set forth in the Certificate of Designation of the Preferred Stock.

Acquisition Process

The structure of the Company’s participation in business opportunities and ventures will continue to be situational. The Company is likely to structure future acquisitions as a purchase of 19.99% or less, or 50.01% or more, of a target company’s equity ownership interest, or as a so-called tax-free reorganization. It is likely that the anticipated value of the business and/or securities that the Company acquires relative to the current value of the Company’s securities will result in the issuance of a relatively large number of newly issued shares of the Company, and, as a result, substantial additional dilution to the percentage ownership of our current stockholders. Moreover, the Company’s present management and shareholders may not have control of a majority of our voting shares following a merger or purchase of stock. It is possible that the shareholders of the acquired entity or the persons who provide the capital to the Company to finance a merger or purchase of stock will gain control of the Company’s voting stock and the Company’s directors may resign and new directors may be appointed without any vote by the shareholders. Those directors are entitled to replace the Company’s officers without stockholder vote.

Acquired Sales Corp.

Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

In regard to nearly all of the Company’s potential acquisitions, the Company is typically focused upon acquiring 19.99% or less, or 50.01% or more, of existing privately held businesses whose owners are willing to consider selling a percentage of the equity ownership interest of their businesses, or merging their entire businesses into the Company or a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company in a so-called tax-free reorganization, and whose management teams are enthusiastic about continuing to operate their businesses following the transactions with the Company.

Closing such purchases of stock or so-called tax-free reorganizations will likely require the Company to raise millions of dollars of capital, in order to pay the cash portion of the transaction consideration. The Company can provide no assurance or guaranty whatsoever that it will be able to raise such millions of dollars of capital on acceptable terms and conditions, if at all.

An Investment Committee appointed by the Company’s Board of Directors, currently consisting of GJacobs, director Thomas W. Hines, CPA CFA, and WJacobs, CPA, will review material furnished to it and will vote whether or not the Investment Committee believes a potential acquisition is in the Company’s best interests and the interests of the Company’s shareholders. If the Investment Committee votes unanimously to approve a potential acquisition, then such acquisition will be presented to the Board of Directors of the Company for their review and a vote. The Company does not intend to proceed forward with a potential acquisition without the unanimous approval of the Investment Committee and approval by a majority of the Company’s Board of Directors.

The Company intends to source acquisition opportunities through its CEO and directors and their contacts, and in some cases through finders. These contacts include the shareholders of Ablis, professional advisors such as attorneys and accountants, securities broker dealers, venture capitalists, members of the financial community, other businesses and others who may present solicited and unsolicited proposals. Management believes that business opportunities may become available to us due to a number of factors, including, among others: (1) The Company’s ownership of shares in one or more CBD-Infused Products Companies; (2) management’s historical experience building large public companies; (3) management’s contacts and acquaintances; and (4) the Company’s flexibility with respect to the manner in which the Company may be able to structure, finance, merge with or acquire any business opportunity.

The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by or under the supervision of the Investment Committee appointed by our Board of Directors. Inasmuch as the Company will have limited funds available to search for business opportunities, the Company will not be able to expend significant funds on a complete and exhaustive investigation of such business or opportunity. The Company will, however, investigate, to the extent believed reasonable by the Investment Committee, such potential business opportunities by conducting a so-called “due diligence investigation”.

In a due diligence investigation, the Company intends to obtain and review materials regarding the business opportunity. Typically, such materials will include information regarding a target business’ products, services, contracts, management, ownership, and financial information. In addition, the Company intends to cause the Investment Committee to meet personally with management and key personnel of target businesses, ask questions regarding the target businesses’ prospects, tour facilities,

and conduct other reasonable investigation of the target businesses to the extent of the Company’s limited financial resources and management and technical expertise.

There is no guarantee that the Company can obtain or maintain the funding needed for its operations, including the funds necessary to search for and investigate acquisition candidates, and to close an acquisition including paying the substantial costs of legal, accounting and other relevant professional services.

As of May 13, 2019, the Company has cash on hand of approximately $4,379,077, which are proceeds from the sale of Preferred Stock between February 27, 2019 and May 13, 2019. In prior years, the Company’s payables have been greater than their cash on hand. The Company has inconsistent income generating ability and is therefore reliant on raising money from loans or stock sales.

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation – The accompanying financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Company for all periods presented.

Condensed Financial Statements – The accompanying financial statements are condensed and do not include all disclosures normally required by generally accepted accounting principles. These statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements included in Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 13, 2019. In particular, the basis of presentation and significant accounting principles were presented in Note 1 to the annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements and consist of only normal recurring adjustments, except as disclosed herein. The results of

12

Acquired Sales Corp.

Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2019.

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) typically requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions. In the past, significant estimates included share-based compensation forfeiture rates and the potential outcome of future tax consequences of events that have been recognized for financial reporting purposes. Actual results and outcomes may differ from our estimates and assumptions.

Basic and Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share – Basic earnings (loss) per common share is determined by dividing earnings (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is calculated by dividing earnings (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period. When dilutive, the incremental potential common shares issuable upon exercise of stock options and warrants are determined by the treasury stock method. The following table summarizes the calculations of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per common share for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018:

In comparison, at March 31, 2018, there were 1,358,774 stock options and rights to purchase warrants to purchase 2,700,000 shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding that were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share because their effects would have been anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements – The Company is unaware of any new accounting pronouncements that will impact the Company upon adoption, and the Company has not recently adopted any new accounting standards.

NOTE 3 – RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

Going Concern – The Company has a history of recurring losses which have resulted in an accumulated deficit of $14,068,681 as of March 31, 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company recognized a net loss of $44,440.

Also, the Company has Preferred Stock outstanding that is currently accruing dividends at the rate of 3% per year. We have no income to pay these dividends. The Company does not have any business or any sources of revenue to pay these dividends or our other operating expenses. As a result, there is substantial doubt that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern. Bankruptcy of the Company at some point in the future is a possibility. The accompanying financial statements do not include any

13

Acquired Sales Corp.

Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classificiation of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable ot continue as a going concern.

The Company currently has no revenue-generating subsidiaries. Management plans to sustain the Company as a going concern by taking the following actions: (1) acquiring and/or developing profitable businesses that will create positive income from operations; and/or (2) completing private placements of the Company’s common stock and/or preferred stock. Management believes that by taking these actions, the Company will be provided with sufficient future operations and cash flow to continue as a going concern. However, there can be no assurances or guarantees whatsoever that the Company will be successful in consummating such actions on acceptable terms, if at all. Moreover, any such actions can be expected to result in substantial dilution to the existing shareholders of the Company.

The Company’s investments in Ablis, Bendistillery and Bend Spirits made the Company a minority owner of these companies. As a minority owner, the Company will not be able to recognize any portion of Ablis’, Bendistillery’s or Bend Spirits’ revenues or earnings in the Company’s financial statements. The Company may, at some point, receive commissions for helping sell Ablis' and Bendistillery's online or offline. The Company’s investments in Ablis, Bendistillery and Bend Spirits will be tested for potential impairment of value on a quarterly basis.

NOTE 4 – NOTES RECEIVABLE

The William Noyes Webster Foundation, Inc.

The Foundation, a non-profit Massachusetts corporation, has received a provisional registration from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to own and operate a medical marijuana cultivation facility in Plymouth, Massachusetts, and a medical marijuana dispensary in Dennis, Massachusetts. Jane W. Heatley (“Heatley”) is the founder and a member of the board of directors of the Foundation.

Teaming Agreement – The Company believes it is highly likely that the board of directors of the Foundation will only approve contracts that have been negotiated and approved by Heatley. Consequently, on July 8, 2014, the Company entered into a Teaming Agreement (the "Teaming Agreement") with Heatley, in which, among other things: (1) the Company and Heatley agreed to use their respective best efforts, working exclusively together as a team, and not as a partnership or other entity, in order to consummate transactions, agreements, contracts or other arrangements pursuant to which the Company will provide capital and expertise to the Foundation; and (2) Heatley agreed that Heatley shall not, and shall not permit the Foundation to, discuss or negotiate for debt or equity financing, or consulting services or other expertise, from any third party. The Company claims that Heatley violated the Teaming Agreement by discussing and negotiating for debt or equity financing, or consulting services or other expertise, from at least one third party. Heatley claims that the Company violated the Teaming Agreement alleging that the Company failed to lend funds to the Foundation in accordance with the Teaming Agreement. The Company believes Heatley's claim to be baseless. No assurances whatsoever can be made that Heatley will comply with the terms of the Teaming Agreement, nor that the Company will be able to adequately enforce the terms of the Teaming Agreement if it is ever the subject of litigation.

Promissory Note – On July 14, 2014, the Foundation signed and delivered to the Company a Secured Promissory Note (the "Note") which is in the stated loan amount of $1,500,000, and is secured by a Security Agreement of even date therewith (the “Security Agreement”). The Note provides that the $1,500,000 loan may be advanced in one or more installments as the Foundation and the Company may mutually agree upon. The Foundation and the Company mutually agreed that the first installment of this loan would be $602,500. Pursuant to instructions from the Foundation, on July 14, 2014, the Company paid $2,500 owed by the Foundation to one of its consultants, and the Company advanced $600,000 directly to the Foundation. The amount and timing of subsequent loan installments under the Note, which could have totaled $897,500, had not yet been mutually agreed upon between the Foundation and the Company as of the date of the Note.

Between April and July 2015, the Company loaned an additional $135,350 to the Foundation, evidenced by the Note and secured by the Security Agreement. Following such additional loans, the principal of the loan from the Company to the Foundation, evidenced by the Note and secured by the Security Agreement, is now $737,850. The principal balance outstanding under the Note bore interest at the rate of 12.5% per annum, compounded monthly. It was contemplated that the first payment of accrued interest by the Foundation under the Note would be made as soon after the Foundation commences operations of the Plymouth Cultivation Facility and the Dennis Dispensary as the Foundation's cash flows shall reasonably permit, but in any event no later than one year after the Foundation commences operations. The principal of the Note would be payable in eight consecutive equal quarterly installments, commencing on the last day of the calendar quarter in which the Foundation commences operations. Principal on the Note and related accrued interest would be considered past due if the aforementioned payments were not received by their due dates.

Uncollectable Note and Interest Receivable – The Company assessed the collectability of the Note based on the adequacy of the Foundation’s collateral and the Foundation’s capability of repaying the Note according to its terms. Based on this assessment, on September 1, 2015, the Company concluded that Note and interest receivable would not be collectible. As such, the Company wrote off the Note totaling $737,850 and interest receivable totaling $97,427 as bad debt expense on September 1, 2015.

As used in this Form 10-Q, references to the “Company,” “Acquired Sales,” “AQSP,” “we,” “our” or “us” refer to Acquired Sales Corp., unless the context otherwise indicates.

We have a history of recurring losses, which has resulted in an accumulated deficit of $14,068,681 as of March 31, 2019.  In addition, we suffered losses from continuing operations during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. Also, the Company has Preferred Stock outstanding that is currently accruing dividends at the rate of 3% per year. We do not have any business or any sources of revenue to pay these dividends or our other operating expenses. These matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Overview

Acquired Sales Corp. (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “Acquired Sales”, the “Company”, “AQSP”, “Acquired”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”, etc.) was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on January 2, 1986. We do not currently have any business or any sources of revenue.

We want to acquire all or a portion of one or more operating businesses.

We are currently is exclusively exploring potential acquisitions of all or a portion of one or more operating businesses involving the manufacture and sale of cannabidiol (CBD)-infused products such as beverages, muscle/joint rubs, oils, crystals, tinctures, bath bombs, isolate, relief balms, elixirs, body washes, med sticks, lotions, vape pens and cartridges, shatter, and gummies (a “CBD-Infused Products Company”).

In order to consummate a particular acquisition of a CBD-Infused Products Company, we are open-minded to the concept of also acquiring all or a portion of one or more operating businesses and/or assets that are related to such CBD-Infused Products Company,

19

for example operating businesses and/or assets involving distilled spirits, beer, wine, hemp, paraphernalia, cannabis, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)-infused products, and real estate. 

Signing of Letter of Intent to Acquire 100% of the Ownership Interests of CBD Lion LLC

On May 8, 2019, Acquired Sales Corp., Gerard M. Jacobs (“GJacobs”) and William C. “Jake” Jacobs (“WJacobs”) entered into a Letter of Intent with CBD Lion LLC (“Lion”) and its owners (the “Lion Owners”) to, subject to a number of conditions, acquire 100% of the ownership of Lion (the “Transaction”). The consideration to be paid by the Company in the proposed acquisition of Lion is: two million dollars ($2,000,000) in cash, plus unregistered common stock of the Company (the "Stock Consideration") in an amount that is the greater of: (i) five million (5,000,000) shares or (ii) a number of shares with a value at closing of the Transaction, based on the Company’s share price, equal to 50% of the value of the aggregate consideration deemed paid to the Lion Owners for their ownership interests in Lion, which could hypothetically increase the Stock Consideration to a number significantly higher than five million (5,000,000). The Lion Owners shall have "piggyback registration rights" for the common stock shares underlying the Stock Consideration and "demand registration rights" that are triggered if no registration statement covering the Stock Consideration is filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission within 120 days following the closing of the Transaction. In addition, the Letter of Intent requires that at the closing of the Transaction, the Company shall cause up to four hundred sixty-two thousand four hundred thirty dollars ($462,430) of related party debt owed by Lion to be repaid in full. 

The terms of the proposed Transaction must be set forth in a definitive agreement. There are no assurances that we will be successful in negotiating an acceptable definitive agreement, when or whether a definitive agreement will be reached between the parties, or that the proposed Transaction will be consummated. Even if a definitive agreement is executed, the terms of the proposed Transaction may change materially from the terms set forth in the Letter of Intent. There will be many conditions to closing of the Transaction, many of which are outside of the parties’ control and we cannot predict whether these conditions will be satisfied. There are no assurances when or if closing of the Transaction will occur, even if the parties successfully negotiate and sign a definitive agreement.

Closing of the acquisition of Lion is subject to a number of conditions, including but not limited to the completion of due diligence investigation of Lion by the Company that is acceptable to the Company, completion of a capital raise by the Company of at least $4 million, completion of an audit of Lion acceptable to the Company, execution of definitive acquisition documents, execution of employment agreements with certain key Lion executives, obtaining necessary third-party approvals, including a tax opinion to be provided by Lion’s tax counsel indicating that the proposed Transaction will qualify as a tax-free reorganization, and completion of all necessary securities filings. In the event that most of the foregoing conditions are met, as detailed in the Letter of Intent, prior to the closing of the proposed Transaction, the Company will make a $300,000 loan to Lion to be used by Lion exclusively for growth capital.

The Company is currently engaged in due diligence of Lion and has not yet started to negotiate a definitive agreement for the proposed Transaction. The Letter of Intent will terminate if (i) no audit of Lion satisfactory to the Company has been delivered by August 31, 2019; the Company fails to raise $4 million by September 30, 2019; or (iii) the proposed Transaction has not closed by October 31, 2019.

The Letter of Intent contains customary provisions prohibiting Lion from soliciting or encouraging any other acquisition proposal or entering into any negotiations or agreements for an alternative acquisition or financing transaction prior to the termination of the Letter of Intent.

In the event that the proposed acquisition of Lion is completed, the Letter of Intent requires that as soon as practicable following the closing of the proposed sale, the Company will change its name to "CBD Lion Corp.” and request a new trading symbol that better relates to the new proposed name.

Stock Sale and Purchase Agreement - Ablis Holding Company

Ablis Holding Company ("Ablis") is a rapidly growing leader in the exciting CBD-infused beverage industry. Ablis' all-natural, shelf-stable, GMO-free, non-alcoholic, lemon ginger, cranberry blood orange, and 0 calorie lemon water beverages target the mainstream health market and contain no THC. Ablis also manufactures and sells CBD-infused rubs, oils and crystals. Ablis' beverages are now being distributed in 11 states, online throughout the country, Puerto Rico and Guam. Also, Silver Moon Brewing, a brewery in Bend, has recently begun producing and selling Hazibliss, Oregon’s first hemp CBD-infused draft beer that incorporates Ablis’ cranberry blood orange CBD beverage.

On April 30, 2019, the Company, GJacobs, and WJacobs entered into a Stock Sale and Purchase Agreement with Ablis, Ablis, Inc., and James A. Bendis (“Bendis”) wherein the Company paid $399,200 for a post transaction 4.99% ownership of Ablis' equity. Ablis is in the business of manufacturing and sale of CBD-infused beverages, and CBD-infused products. The Stock Sale and Purchase Agreement requires that Ablis use a portion of the purchase proceeds to pay off at least $381,000 of its liabilities. Another portion of the purchase proceeds will make capital available for expanded off-line and online advertising, and additional staff and equipment.

20

The Stock Sale and Purchase Agreement also sets out terms for an additional equity purchase of Ablis such that we may purchase up to an additional 15% of Ablis for $1,200,000 so that we would then own 19.99% of the ownership equity of Ablis. We desire to purchase up to an additional 15% of the common stock of Ablis, but doing so will only be possible if we close on the sale of additional Preferred Stock or otherwise raises capital.

The management team of Ablis will continue to lead Ablis. The terms of the Stock Sale and Purchase Agreement entitle GJacobs to be a member of the board of directors of Ablis, entitles WJacobs, to be provided with access to Ablis' financial information, grants WJacobs, financial oversight functions over Ablis, and allows WJacobs the right to provide consulting/advisory services to Ablis. WJacobs’ reasonable expenses will be covered by Ablis. The Stock Sale and Purchase Agreement also requires that GJacobs and WJacobs be introduced to the owners of Ablis’ CBD isolate suppliers, and any other companies in the hemp, CBD and cannabis industries with whom Ablis and/or Bendis have relationships, and whom may potentially be interested in entering into a stock sale or merger with the Company.

The Stock Sale and Purchase Agreement requires that Ablis evaluate and seriously consider a sale of Ablis or taking Ablis public within 60 months from April 30, 2019 and that it use commercially reasonable best efforts, to close a mutually acceptable alternative exit opportunity for the Company within 72 months from April 30, 2019.

Our investment in Ablis made us a minority owner of Ablis. As a minority owner, we will not be able to recognize any portion of Ablis’ revenues or earnings in our financial statements. We may, at some point, receive commissions for helping to sell Ablis' products either online or offline. Our investment in Ablis will be tested for potential impairment of value on a quarterly basis.

Stock Purchase Agreement - Bendistillery Inc. and Bend Spirits, Inc.

Founded in 1996, Bendistillery, Inc. ("Bendistillery") is an award-winning craft distillery, with an outstanding reputation for producing Crater Lake Spirits brands including vodkas, gins, whiskeys, and white label brands offered through Bend Spirits, Inc. ("Bend Spirits").

On April 30, 2019, the Company, GJacobs, and WJacobs entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Bendistillery, Bend Spirits, Bendis Homes Pinehurst, LLC, an Oregon limited liability company (“Landowner”), Bendis, and Alan T. Dietrich (“Dietrich”) wherein the Company paid $1,347,300 for a post transaction 4.99% ownership of Bendistillery’s equity and $149,700 for a post transaction 4.99% ownership of Bend Spirits’ equity. Bendistillery and Bend Spirits are in the business of manufacturing and sale of alcoholic beverages, and the manufacturing of CBD-infused beverages and CBD-infused products.

Another portion of the purchase proceeds will make capital available for expanded off-line and online advertising, and additional staff and equipment.

The Stock Purchase Agreement also sets out terms for an additional equity purchase of Bendistillery such that we may purchase up to an additional 15% of Bendistillery for $4,050,000 so that we would then own 19.99% of the ownership equity of Bendistillery. Per the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, we may also purchase up to an additional 15% of Bend Spirits for $450,000 such that we would then own 19.99% of the ownership equity of Bend Spirits. We desire to purchase up to an additional 15% of the common stock of each of Bendistillery and Bend Spirits under the Stock Purchase Agreement, but doing so will only be possible if the Company closes on the sale of additional Preferred Stock or otherwise raises capital, and receives approval to do so from the Oregon Liquor Control Commission.

Pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, Landowner (as landlord) and Bendistillery (as tenant) have entered into a long-term lease of the 23 acres in Tumalo outside Bend, Oregon, where Bendistillery and Bend Spirits conduct their businesses (the “Real Estate”), which lease (the “Lease”) is consistent with the following terms: the initial term of the Lease is 20 years at a rent of $17,500 per month; Tenant has the right, in its sole discretion, to exercise a series of options to extend the term of the Lease up to a maximum of 99 years; and Tenant has a 60-day right of first refusal if Landowner ever decides to sell all or any portion of the Real Estate. Bendis is the owner of Landowner.

The management teams of Bendistillery and Bend Spirits will continue to lead their respective companies. The terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement entitle GJacobs to be a member of the board of directors of Bendistillery and Bend Spirits, entitle WJacobs to be provided with access to financial information, grants WJacobs financial oversight functions over Bendistillery and Bend Spirits, and allows WJacobs the right to provide consulting/advisory services to Bendistillery and Bend Spirits. WJacobs’ reasonable expenses will be covered by Bendistillery and Bend Spirits, as well as an advisory fee of not less than $5,000 per quarter. The Stock Purchase Agreement also requires that GJacobs and WJacobs be introduced to the owners of Deschutes Brewery, Silver Moon Brewing, LBD Beverage, and any other companies in the distilled spirits, beer, wine, hemp, CBD and cannabis industries with whom Bendistillery, Bend Spirits, Bendis and/or Dietrich have relationships, and whom may potentially be interested in entering into a stock sale or merger with the Company.

21

The Stock Purchase Agreement requires that Bendistillery and Bend Spirits evaluate and seriously consider a sale of Bendistillery and Bend Spirits or taking them public within 60 months from April 30, 2019 and that they use commercially reasonable best efforts to close a mutually acceptable alternative exit opportunity for the Company within 72 months from April 30, 2019.

Our investments in Bendistillery and Bend Spirits made us a minority owner of these companies. As a minority owner, we will not be able to recognize any portion of Bendistillery’s or Bend Spirits’ revenues or earnings in our financial statements. We may, at some point, receive commissions for helping sell Bendistillery’s products either online or offline. Our investments in Bendistillery and Bend Spirits will be tested for potential impairment in value on a quarterly basis.

Acceptance of Subscriptions From Accredited Investors to Purchase Newly Issued Series A Convertible Preferred Stock

Between February 27, 2019 and May 13, 2019, we accepted subscriptions from accredited investors to purchase 66,150 shares of newly issued Preferred Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $6,615,000 in cash. These 66,150 shares of Preferred Stock are convertible at the option of the holders into 6,615,000 shares of newly issued common stock of the Company, or $1.00 per share of common stock of the Company. We have committed to file a registration statement covering the shares of newly issued common stock of the Company into which the Preferred Stock can be converted (the "Registration Statement"). The Preferred Stock will receive an annual dividend, and will be subject to mandatory conversion, under terms and conditions set forth in the Certificate of Designation of the Preferred Stock.

Acquisition Process

The structure of our participation in business opportunities and ventures will continue to be situational. We are likely to structure future acquisitions as a purchase of 19.99% or less, or 50.01% or more, of a target company’s equity ownership interest, or as a so-called tax-free reorganization. It is likely that the anticipated value of the business and/or securities that we acquire relative to the current value of the Company’s securities will result in the issuance of a relatively large number of newly issued shares of the Company, and, as a result, substantial additional dilution to the percentage ownership of our current stockholders. Moreover, our present management and shareholders may not have control of a majority of our voting shares following a merger or purchase of stock. It is possible that the shareholders of the acquired entity or the persons who provide the capital to us to finance a merger or purchase of stock will gain control of our voting stock and our directors may resign and new directors may be appointed without any vote by the shareholders. Those directors are entitled to replace our officers without stockholder vote.

In regard to nearly all of our potential acquisitions, we are typically focused upon acquiring 19.99% or less, or 50.01% or more, of existing privately held businesses whose owners are willing to consider selling a percentage of the equity ownership interest of their businesses, or merging their entire businesses into the Company or a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company in a so-called tax-free reorganization, and whose management teams are enthusiastic about continuing to operate their businesses following the transactions with the Company.

Closing such purchases of stock or so-called tax-free reorganizations will likely require us to raise millions of dollars of capital, in order to pay the cash portion of the transaction consideration. We can provide no assurance or guaranty whatsoever that we will be able to raise such millions of dollars of capital on acceptable terms and conditions, if at all.

An Investment Committee appointed by the Company’s Board of Directors, currently consisting of GJacobs, director Thomas W. Hines, CPA CFA, and WJacobs, CPA, will review material furnished to it and will vote whether or not the Investment Committee believes a potential acquisition is in the Company’s best interests and the interests of the Company’s shareholders. If the Investment Committee votes unanimously to approve a potential acquisition, then such acquisition will be presented to the Board of Directors of the Company for their review and a vote. We do not intend to proceed forward with a potential acquisition without the unanimous approval of the Investment Committee and approval by a majority of the Company’s Board of Directors.

We intend to source acquisition opportunities through our CEO and directors and their contacts, and in some cases through finders. These contacts include the shareholders of Ablis, professional advisors such as attorneys and accountants, securities broker dealers, venture capitalists, members of the financial community, other businesses and others who may present solicited and unsolicited proposals. Management believes that business opportunities may become available to us due to a number of factors, including, among others: (1) Our ownership of shares in one or more CBD-Infused Products Companies; (2) management’s historical experience building large public companies; (3) management’s contacts and acquaintances; and (4) our flexibility with respect to the manner in which we may be able to structure, finance, merge with or acquire any business opportunity.

The analysis of new business opportunities will be undertaken by or under the supervision of the Investment Committee appointed by our Board of Directors. Inasmuch as we will have limited funds available to search for business opportunities, the Company will not be able to expend significant funds on a complete and exhaustive investigation of such business or opportunity. We will, however, investigate, to the extent believed reasonable by the Investment Committee, such potential business opportunities by conducting a so-called “due diligence investigation”.

22

In a due diligence investigation, we intend to obtain and review materials regarding the business opportunity. Typically, such materials will include information regarding a target business’ products, services, contracts, management, ownership, and financial information. In addition, we intend to cause the Investment Committee to meet personally with management and key personnel of target businesses, ask questions regarding the target businesses’ prospects, tour facilities, and conduct other reasonable investigation of the target businesses to the extent of our limited financial resources and management and technical expertise.

There is no guarantee that we can obtain or maintain the funding needed for its operations, including the funds necessary to search for and investigate acquisition candidates, and to close an acquisition including paying the substantial costs of legal, accounting and other relevant professional services.

As of May 13, 2019, we have cash on hand of approximately $4,379,077, which are proceeds from the sale of Preferred Stock between February 27, 2019 and May 13, 2019. In prior years, our payables have been greater than our cash on hand. We have inconsistent income generating ability and is therefore reliant on raising money from loans or stock sales.

We currently have no revenue-generating subsidiaries. We plan to sustain the Company as a going concern by taking the following actions: (1) acquiring and/or developing profitable businesses that will create positive income from operations; (2) acquiring valuable real estate in exchange for common stock and/or preferred stock; and/or (3) completing private placements of our common stock and/or preferred stock. We believe that by taking these actions, we will be provided with sufficient future operations and cash flow to continue as a going concern. However, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in consummating such actions on acceptable terms, if at all. Moreover, any such actions can be expected to result in substantial dilution to the existing shareholders of the Company.

Our investments in Ablis, Bendistillery and Bend Spirits made us a minority owner of these companies. As a minority owner, we will not be able to recognize any portion of Ablis’, Bendistillery’s or Bend Spirits’ revenues or earnings in our financial statements. We may, at some point, receive commissions for helping sell Ablis' and Bendistillery's products online or offline. Our investments in Ablis, Bendistillery and Bend Spirits will be tested for potential impairment of value on a quarterly basis.

Other Matters

We may be subject to other legal proceedings, claims, and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. We intend to defend vigorously against any such claims. Although the outcome of these other matters is currently not determinable, our management does not expect that the ultimate costs to resolve these matters will have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that

24

management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon 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.

Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules, regulations and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As indicated in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective. Management’s assessment of internal controls over financial reporting has not changed at March 31, 2019. There existed a lack of segregation of duties in regard to the Company’s financial reporting, procedures for depositing of funds, procedures for cash disbursements, procedures for checkbook entries, period close procedures, and procedures for financial statement preparation that result in material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that there were no significant changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

25

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business.  However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.

Change in Shell Company Status

Our management believes that due to the events reported in current reports on Form 8-K on May 1, 2019 and May 10, 2019, respectively, the Company has ceased being a shell company as defined in defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act (17 CFR 240.12b-2) because it is engaged in more than nominal operations and has more than nominal assets.  As previously reported, the Company has entered into two material definitive agreements; the Stock Sale and Purchase Agreement with Ablis Holding Company and the Stock Purchase Agreement with Bendistillery Inc. and Bend Spirits. In addition, the Company disclosed Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities wherein the Company raised $6,315,000. Finally, the Company disclosed the entry into a Letter of Intent with CBD Lion LLC. The underlying documents of the foregoing business transactions both entitle and require the Company and its agents to engage in a number of material business activities.
