CAUTIONARY STATEMENT ON FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based upon our current assumptions, expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect on our business. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words: “may,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “approximately,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” “continue,” “ongoing,” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology, although the absence of these words does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking. This information may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from the future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements.

 

Factors that may cause or contribute actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, for example:

 

  · adverse economic conditions;

 

  · the inability to attract and retain qualified senior management and technical personnel;

 

  · other risks and uncertainties related to the cannabis market and our business strategy.

 

Stockholders and potential investors should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Although we believe that our plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by the forward-looking statements in this report are reasonable, we cannot assure stockholders and potential investors that these plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved. We disclose important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from expectations under “Risk Factors” in our annual report on Form 10-K. These cautionary statements qualify all forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf.

 

These forward-looking statements represent our intentions, plans, expectations, assumptions and beliefs about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors. Many of those factors are outside of our control and could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by those forward-looking statements. Considering these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events described in the forward-looking statements might not occur or might occur to a different extent or at a different time than we have described. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning other matters addressed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

Except to the extent required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events, a change in events, conditions, circumstances or assumptions underlying such statements, or otherwise.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Organization and Nature of Operations

 

Business DescriptionBusiness Activity

 

Medicine Man Technologies Inc. (the "Company") is a Nevada corporation incorporated on March 20, 2014. The Company is a cannabis consulting company providing services related to cost-efficient cannabis cultivation technologies focusing on quality as well as safety, retail operations related to the delivery of cannabis related products, and other related business lines as described in our operating strategic vision outlined below.

 

1. Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

During the quarters ending June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company primarily used revenues from its operation supplemented by cash to fund its operations.

 

Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand, deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date. The Company had $4,347,495 and $321,788 classified as cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, respectively.

 

The Company maintains its cash balances with a high-credit-quality financial institution. At times, such cash may be more than the insured limit of $250,000. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts, and management believes the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk on its cash and cash equivalents.

 

In an effort to mitigate credit risk, the Company may purchase highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. On June 25, 2019, the Company purchased a United States Treasury Bill that matures on July 23, 2019 and bears interest at 2.06%.

 

The following table depicts the composition of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018:

 

   

June 30,

2019

   

December 31,

2018

 
             
Deposits placed with banks   $ 1,352,208     $ 321,788  
United States Treasury Bills     2,995,287        
Total cash and cash equivalents   $ 4,347,495     $ 321,788  

 

The Company has recently elected to accelerate its organic growth path through additional marketing, team development, synergistic acquisitions, and other corporate activities wherein it expects to generate negative cash flow and an additional demand for capital to fuel such growth.

 

The Company has commenced legal action against a client for breach of contract, adding a significant value to its receivables for fees that had been booked due to forbearance grants by the Company that were subsequently violated, causing the Company to increase its receivables accordingly (see Note 17 – Subsequent Events and Part II, Item 1, Legal Proceedings for more information).

 

2. Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Basis of Presentation

 

These accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for financial statements.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net earnings and financial position.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, as follows:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

 

 

 9 

 

 

The Company’s financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, note receivable, accounts payables and tenant deposits. The carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their fair value due to their short maturities. The carrying amount of the Company’s debt approximates fair value because the interest rates on these instruments approximate the interest rate on debt with similar terms available to us. The Company’s derivative liability was adjusted to fair market value at the end of each reporting period, using Level 3 inputs.

 

The following is the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1), significant other observable inputs (Level 2), and significant unobservable inputs (Level 3):

 

  

June 30,

2019

  

December 31,

2018

 
Level 3 – Non-Marketable Securities – Non-recurring  $1,482,614   $2,199,344 

 

Non-Marketable Securities at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

 

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The level 3 position consist of investments accounted for under the cost method. The Level 3 position consists of investments in equity securities held in private companies.

 

Use of Estimates 

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported therein. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be based upon amounts that differ from these estimates.

  

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business. Accounts receivable related to licensing and consulting revenues are recorded at the time the milestone result in the funds being due being achieved, services are delivered, and payment is reasonably assured. Licensing and consulting revenues are generally collected from 30 to 60 days after the invoice is sent.

 

The following table depicts the composition of our accounts receivable as of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018:

 

  

June 30,

2019

  

December 31,

2018

 
         
Accounts receivable – trade  $470,584   $1,180,757 
Accounts receivable – related party   59,322    125,112 
Accounts receivable – litigation   1,281,511    1,281,511 
Total accounts receivable  $1,811,417   $2,587,380 

 

The Company commenced legal action against a customer for breach of contract, adding a significant value into its receivables for fees that had been booked due to forbearance grants by the Company that were subsequently violated, causing the Company to increase its receivables accordingly. At June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the accounts receivable for this matter totaled $1,281,511, and the revenue earned, all during the year ended December 31, 2018, was $1,518,099. Further, the Company provided services to this Client for a period of thirteen months, agreeing conditionally to three modifications in December of 2017, March of 2018, and May of 2018 to forego certain revenue sharing payments in accordance with the agreement with the Client, which the Client subsequently violated. In July 2018, the Company engaged legal counsel in Clark County Nevada to pursue the default and collect the payments due the Company pursuant to the terms of the agreement with the Client. (See Note 17 – Subsequent Events and Part II, Item 1, Legal Proceedings for more information).

 

On March 22, 2019, the Company entered into an Agreement of Sale of Future Receipts (“Factoring Agreement”) with Libertas Funding, LLC (“Purchaser”). Under the terms of the Factoring Agreement, the Purchaser acquired $810,000 of certain future receivables from the Company for $582,000 in net proceeds. The Company is required to repay Purchaser $24,107 weekly for an estimated term of eight months.

Due to the low volume of write offs, the Company uses the direct write off method versus having an allowance for uncollectible debts. The Company did not write off any of its accounts receivable in either of the six-month periods ending June 30, 2019 or 2018.

  

Notes Receivable

 

On July 17, 2018, the Company entered into an intellectual property license agreement with Abba Medix Corp. (AMC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of publicly-traded Canada House Wellness Group, Inc. (CHV). The Company agreed to provide a lending facility to AMC in CAD$125,000 increments of up to CAD$500,000. The lending facilities shall bear an initial interest rate at 5.50% (representing United States Prime) and carry a term of 24 months, unless otherwise amended by both parties.

 

As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company loaned to AMC a total of $237,246 and $92,888, respectively. The Company classified these loans as long-term notes receivable on its consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, respectively.

 

Other Assets (Current and Non-Current)

 

Other assets at June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018 were $200,103 and $50,824, respectively and as of June 30, 2019 this balance included $180,653 in prepaid expenses and $19,450 in two security deposits.

At December 31, 2018, this was comprised of $163,568 in customer deposits, $21,330 in deferred rent expense and $106,185 in accrued payroll.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts of cash and current assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these items. These fair value estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect these estimates. Available for sale securities are recorded at current market value as of the date of this report.

 

Revenue Recognition and Related Allowances 

 

Our revenue recognition policy is significant because the amount and timing of revenue is a key component of our results of operations. Certain criteria are required to be met in order to recognize revenue. If these criteria are not met, then the associated revenue is deferred until it is met. When consideration is received in advance of the delivery of goods or services, a contract liability is recorded. Our revenue contracts are identified when accepted from customers and represent a single performance obligation to sell our products to a customer.

 

The Company has five main revenue streams, product sales, licensing and consulting, cultivation max, reimbursements, investment and others.

 

 

 

 11 

 

 

Revenue from cultivation max, licensing and consulting services is recognized when the obligations to the client are fulfilled which is determined when milestones in the contract are achieved.

 

Product Sales are recorded at the time that control of the products is transferred to customers. In evaluating the timing of the transfer of control of products to customers, we consider several indicators, including significant risks and rewards of products, our right to payment, and the legal title of the products. Based on the assessment of control indicators, sales are generally recognized when products are delivered to customers.

 

Revenue from seminar fees is related to one-day seminars and is recognized as earned upon the completion of the seminar. The Company also recognizes expense reimbursement from clients as revenue for expenses incurred during certain jobs.

 

Product Sales are recorded at the time that control of the products is transferred to customers. In evaluating the timing of the transfer of control of products to customers, we consider several indicators, including significant risks and rewards of products, our right to payment, and the legal title of the products. Based on the assessment of control indicators, sales are generally recognized when products are delivered to customers.

 

Costs of Goods and Services Sold

 

Costs of goods and services sold are comprised of related expenses incurred while supporting the implementation and sales of the Company’s products and services.

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expense are comprised of all expenses not linked to the production or advertising of the Company’s services.

 

Advertising and Marketing Costs 

 

Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred and totaled $73,088 and $128,489 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively, as compared to $28,396 and $77,540, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for share-based payments pursuant to ASC 718, “Stock Compensation” and, accordingly, the Company records compensation expense for share-based awards based upon an assessment of the grant date fair value for stock and restricted stock awards using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

  

Stock compensation expense for stock options is recognized over the vesting period of the award or expensed immediately under ASC 718 and EITF 96-18 when stock or options are awarded for previous or current service without further recourse. The Company issued stock options to contractors and external companies that had been providing services to the Company upon their termination of services. Under ASC 718 and EITF 96-18 these options were recognized as expense in the period issued because they were given as a form of payment for services already rendered with no recourse.

  

Share based expense paid to through direct stock grants is expensed as occurred. Since the Company’s stock has become publicly traded, the value is determined based on the number of shares issued and the trading value of the stock on the date of the transaction. Prior to the Company’s stock being traded the Company used the most recent valuation. The Company recognized $2,225,406 in expenses for stock-based compensation to employees and consultants during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company did not recognize any such expenses during either the three or six months ended June 30, 2018.

Income Taxes

 

The Company has adopted SFAS No. 109 – “Accounting for Income Taxes”. ASC Topic 740 requires the use of the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method of ASC Topic 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

  

Management Fee Contracts

 

In February 2017, the Company entered into a Merger Agreement with Pono Publications Ltd. (“Pono”), as well as a Share Exchange Agreement with Success Nutrients, Inc. (“SN”), each a Colorado corporation, in order to facilitate the acquisition of both of these entities. The ratification of the acquisition of these companies required the approval of the holders of a majority of the Company’s shareholders, which was submitted for such approval at the Company’s annual shareholder meeting held on May 2017. The relevant agreements provide that the effective date for accounting purposes would be April 1, 2017. Success Nutrients became a wholly owned subsidiary of Medicine Man Technologies, Inc. and the business conducted by Pono was incorporated into a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary, Medicine Man Consulting, Inc., which is also where the Company continues to conduct its consulting service business.

 

3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

FASB ASU 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” – In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 Leases (Topic 842) ("ASU 2016-02"). ASU 2016-02 increases transparency and comparability among organizations by requiring lessees to record right-to-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about lease arrangements. The new guidance will classify leases as either finance or operating (similar to current standard’s “capital” or “operating” classification), with classification affecting the pattern of income recognition in the statement of income. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company has adopted this pronouncement and has reflected the value of all leases within the Balance Sheet of the Company.

 

FASB ASU 2016-15 “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230)” – In August 2016, the FASB issued 2016-15. Stakeholders indicated that there is a diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. Adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on our statement of cash flows.

 

FASB ASU 2017-01 “Clarifying the Definition of a Business (Topic 805)” – In January 2017, the FASB issued 2017-1. The new guidance that changes the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluating when a set of transferred assets and activities is a business. The guidance requires an entity to evaluate if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets; if so, the set of transferred assets and activities is not a business. The guidance also requires a business to include at least one substantive process and narrows the definition of outputs by more closely aligning it with how outputs are described in ASC 606. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and for interim periods within those years. Adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on our consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

On May 1, 2014, the Company entered into a non-exclusive Technology License Agreement with Futurevision, Inc., f/k/a Medicine Man Production Corporation, a Colorado corporation, dba Medicine Man Denver (“Medicine Man Denver”), a company owned and controlled by affiliates of the Company, whereby Medicine Man Denver granted a license to use all of its proprietary processes it developed, implemented and practiced at its cannabis facilities relating to the commercial growth, cultivation, marketing and distribution of medical marijuana and recreational marijuana pursuant to relevant state laws and the right to use and to license such information, including trade secrets, skills and experience (present and future). As payment for the license rights, the Company issued Medicine Man Denver (or its designees) 5,331,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company accounted for this license in accordance with ASC 350-30-30 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other by recognizing the fair value of the amount paid by the company for the asset at the time of purchase. Since the Company has a limited operating history, management determined to use par value as the value recognized for the transaction. Since the term of the initial license agreement is ten (10) years, the cost of the asset will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the agreement. In addition, each period the Company will evaluate the intangible asset for impairment. As of June 30, 2019, no impairment was deemed necessary.

 

During 2017, the Company acquired two intangible assets as part of the acquisition of Success and Pono.

6. Derivative Liability

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company entered into employment agreements with certain key officers that contained contingent consideration provisions based upon the achievement of certain market condition milestones. The Company determined that each of these vesting conditions represented derivative instruments.

 

On January 8, 2019, the Company granted the right to receive 500,000 shares of restricted common stock to an officer, which will vest at such time that that the Company’s stock price appreciates to $8.00 per share with defined minimum average daily trading volume thresholds.

The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with the US GAAP accounting guidance under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging Activities”. The Company estimated the fair value of these derivatives at the respective balance sheet dates using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based upon the following inputs: (i) stock price on the date of grant ranging from $1.32 - $3.75, (ii) the contractual term of the derivative instrument of 3 years, (iii) a risk-free interest rate ranging between 1.71% - 2.57% and (iv) an expected volatility of the price of the underlying common stock ranging between 219% - 274%.

The Company issued an aggregate of 1,933,329 shares of its common stock for 100% ownership of Big Tomato. The Company accounted for the transaction utilizing purchase price accounting stating that net book value approximates fair market value of the assets acquired. The purchase price accounting resulted in the Company valuing the investment as $3,000,000 of Goodwill. At September 17, 2018, the Company’s per share value of Common Stock was $1.55. There is no requirement for Big Tomato to have independent audited financial statement for the prior two fiscal years and any interim periods because the aggregate value of the acquisition is less than 20% of the Company’s current assets.

9. Net Income (Loss) per Share

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 280 – “Earnings per Share”, the basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share is computed similar to basic loss per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. The Company's earnings (loss) per share on a basic and diluted basis were $(0.30) and $0.01 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $(0.40) and $0.01 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

  

10. Inventory

 

As of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, respectively, the Company had $533,083 and $489,239 of finished goods inventory. The Company only has finished goods within inventory because it does not produce any of its products. All inventory is produced by a third party. The Company uses the FIFO inventory valuation method. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company did not have any obsolescence within its inventory.

 

11. Note Payable

 

The Company had a note payable to an officer of the Company, Joshua Haupt. The balance of the note as of December 31, 2017 totaled $58,280 and was repaid in full during the quarter ended March 31, 2018.

 

12. Leases

 

Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For those leases with a term greater than one year, the Company recognizes on the balance sheet at the time of lease commencement or modification of a right of use (“RoU”) operating lease asset and a lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. Lease costs are recognized in the income statement over the lease term on a straight-line basis. RoU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.

 

 

 16 

 

 

The Company's leases consist of real estate leases for office spaces. The Company elected to combine the lease and related non-lease components for its operating leases.

 

The Company’s operating leases include options to extend or terminate the lease, which are not included in the determination of the RoU asset or lease liability unless reasonably certain to be exercised. The Company's operating leases have remaining lease terms of less than two years. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

 

As the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, we used an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The discount rate used in the computations was 6%.

In addition, because they are the holders of cannabis licenses issued by the Marijuana Enforcement Division (“MED”) in the State of Colorado, these acquisitions, with the exception of MedPharm, will require that proposals currently pending in the Colorado legislature to adopt and enact new laws which will allow for public company ownership of Colorado licensed business in the marijuana industry.

The Company estimates the fair value of warrants at date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. There is a moderate degree of subjectivity involved when using option pricing models to estimate the warrants and the assumptions used in the Black Scholes option-pricing model are moderately judgmental.

  

During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company issued 1,500,566 common stock purchase warrants with an exercise price of $1.33 per share, expiring on March 17, 2019.

The Company estimated the fair value of these warrants at date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following inputs: (i) stock price on the date of grant of $1.49, (ii) the contractual term of the warrant of 3 years, (iii) a risk-free interest rate of 2.48% and (iv) an expected volatility of the price of the underlying common stock of 126%.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company issued 2,200,000 common stock purchase warrants to various accredited investors with an exercise price of $3.50 per share with an expiration date of three years from the date of issuance.

The Company has two identifiable segments as of June 30, 2019; (i) licensing and consulting and (ii) products. The products segment sells merchandise directly to customers via e-commerce portals, through our proprietary websites and retail location.

16. Tax Provision

 

The company utilizes FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes” which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company generated a deferred tax credit through net operating loss carry forwards. The Company had no tax provisions as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The company had a net loss during the quarter ended June 30, 2019, increased the net loss carryforward.

On July 15, 2019, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to that certain securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) dated as of June 5, 2019, entered into between the Company and an accredited investor (the “Investor”).

Overview

 

We were incorporated on March 20, 2014, in the State of Nevada. On May 1, 2014, we entered into an exclusive Technology License Agreement with Medicine Man Denver, Inc., f/k/a Medicine Man Production Corporation, a Colorado corporation (“Medicine Man Denver”) whereby Medicine Man Denver granted us a license to use all of their proprietary processes they have developed, implemented and practiced at its cannabis facilities relating to the commercial growth, cultivation, marketing and distribution of medical marijuana and recreational marijuana pursuant to relevant state laws and the right to use and to license such information, including trade secrets, skills and experience (present and future) (the “Medicine Man Denver License Agreement”).

 

We commenced our business on May 1, 2014 and currently generate revenues derived from licensing agreements with cannabis related entities, as well as sponsoring seminars offered to the cannabis industry and other business endeavors related to our core competencies. As of the date of this report we have or have had 45 fee generating clients in 14 different states. In addition, we operate a division that sells grower supplies and a plant nutrient product line.

 

Recent Developments

 

In the second quarter of 2019, the Company started to transitioned from being primarily a cannabis consulting and products company to becoming a company that operates plant touching production, processing, research and retail operations. This transition into operations was facilitated with the passage of Colorado House Bill 1090 signed by Governor Jared Polis on May 30, 2019. In the first two quarters of 2019 the Company invested a significant amount of time, effort and resources into preparing for this transition.

 

Through the date of this filing, the Company has entered into binding terms sheets to acquire the cannabis research, production, processing and distributions of various entities that we believe, once consummated, will generate material future revenues for the Company.

 

The target entities combined have the capacity to grow product over 1,275,680 square feet of cultivation including, 42,000 square feet of indoor cultivation; 14,000 square feet of greenhouse cultivation; and 1,219,680 square feet of outdoor cultivation. We believe this production capacity makes us one of the top five publicly traded, legal cannabis producers worldwide. Furthermore, upon the successful closing of these acquisitions, we will acquire the legal right and licensing necessary to expand our operations in a cost-efficient manner over an additional 100 hectares in Colombia.

 

The target entities own retail branded products that are currently distributed in over 400 retail locations throughout the state of Colorado, including Alivar; Become; Batch; Purplebees; and Dabble.

 

The acquisitions are subject to certain closing conditions including, compliance with all required regulatory requirements necessary to complete our acquisition of the target entities, which we believe will occur late in the first quarter of 2020. Likewise, we will continue to evaluate and negotiate additional acquisition opportunities in line with our growth strategy.

The increase during the three-month period ended June 30, 2019 was primarily attributable to non-cash, stock-based compensation and derivative liability charges.

  

As a result, we generated a net loss of $11,734,468 during the six months ended June 30, 2019 (or a loss of approximately $0.40 per share), compared to net income of $207,116 during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

At June 30, 2019, we had $4,347,495 in cash on hand.

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $733,348 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, compared to cash used from operating activities of $857,400 for the similar period in 2018, a decrease of $124,052.

 

Cash flows used for investing activities was $242,670 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, compared to cash used of $40,092 for the similar period in 2018.

 

Cash flows from financing activities was $5,001,725 during the six-month period ended June 30, 2019, compared to $1,000,000 for the similar period in 2018. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company received proceeds of $4,400,000 from the private sale of our common stock as compared to $1,000,000 in proceeds from the private sale of our common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2018. Additionally, the Company received $601,725 in proceeds in connection with the exercise of common stock purchase warrants during the six-month period ended June 30, 2019.

 

While no assurances can be provided, we believe we will generate positive cash flow from our operations in 2019. If we are successful in achieving this objective, of which there can be no assurance, we do not believe we will need to raise any additional capital and that the revenue generated will be sufficient to allow us to implement our current business plan. However, if we do not generate positive cash flow, or we identify an acquisition which we believe will significantly impact our business operations in a positive manner, or unforeseen developments occur, we may need to raise additional capital, either debt, equity or both. At this time, we are unable to state how much capital we will need. As of the date of this Report we have no commitment from any investor or investment-banking firm to provide us with any funding and there can be no assurances we will obtain such funding in the future. Failure to obtain this additional financing may have a material negative impact on our ability to generate profits on a regular basis in the future.

Inflation

 

Although our operations are influenced by general economic conditions, we do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our results of operations during the three-month period ended June 30, 2019.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We had no off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We continually evaluate the accounting policies and estimates used to prepare the condensed financial statements. The estimates are based on historical experience and assumptions believed to be reasonable under current facts and circumstances. Actual amounts and results could differ from these estimates made by management. Certain accounting policies that require significant management estimates and are deemed critical to our results of operations or financial position are discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 in the Critical Accounting Policies section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
