MJ HOLDINGS, INC.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017
(Unaudited)
Note 1 — Nature of the Business
MJ Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) is a holding company, whose subsidiaries provide infrastructure, consulting and construction services, in addition to holding, and managing third-party state-issued cultivation and production licenses.
Our wholly owned subsidiary, Red Earth, LLC (“Red Earth”) is the holder of a provisional Medical Marijuana Establishment Registration Certificate (the “Certificate”).
In April, 2018, the State of Nevada finalized and approved the transfer of the provisional Medical Marijuana Establishment Registration Certificate (the “Certificate”) from its wholly owned subsidiary, Red Earth, LLC (“Red Earth”) to the Company. The Certificate, when perfected, will allow the Company to commence legal marijuana cultivation activities in the State of Nevada. HDGLV, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Red Earth, holds a triple-net leasehold, with an option to buy, on a 17,298 square-foot building, which will be home to our cultivation facility. The Company expect Phase 1 of this facility to be completed in the third quarter of 2018. The Company expects final approval by the State of Nevada, Department of Taxation of its Certificate and issuance of a Business License from the City of Las Vegas in the third quarter of 2018.
In April, 2018, the Company entered into a management agreement with a Nevada company (the “Licensed Operator”) that holds a license, for the legal cultivation of marijuana for sale under the laws of the State of Nevada. The Licensed Operator has engaged the Company to develop, manage, and operate a licensed cultivation facility on property owned by the Licensed Operator. At its sole cost and expense, the Company has agreed to complete the construction of a 120,000 square-foot outdoor grow facility, including the construction of an 8,000 square-foot building and installation of security fencing, meeting the State of Nevada building codes and regulations. The Company expects to receive all necessary state and local approvals and complete construction of the facility to commence operations in the latter part of the third quarter of 2018.
It is the Company’s intention to grow its business through the acquisition of existing companies and/or through the development of new opportunities that can provide a 360-degree spectrum of infrastructure (dispensaries), cultivation/production management, and consulting services in the regulated cannabis industry.
Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required for audited annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary to make the consolidated financial statements not misleading have been included. The balance sheet at December 31, 2017, has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of that date.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto that are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, that was filed with the SEC on July 27, 2018. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year or any further periods.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The significant accounting policies followed by the Company for interim reporting are consistent with those included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. There were no material changes to our significant accounting policies during the interim period ended March 31, 2018.
Note 3 — Going Concern
The Company’s financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
4 |
The Company’s primary asset is a provisional Medical Marijuana Establishment Registration Certificate issued by the State of Nevada for the cultivation of medical marijuana. There is no assurance on the receipt and/or timing of final approvals from the appropriate authorities. The Company has not generated any revenues from inception (October 17, 2016) to March 31, 2018 and has an accumulated deficit of $563,596. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
In the event the Company experiences liquidity and capital resource constraints because of unanticipated operating losses, we may need to raise additional capital in the form of equity and/or debt financing. If such additional capital is not available on terms acceptable to us or at all, then we may need to curtail our operations and/or take additional measures to conserve and manage our liquidity and capital resources, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations, and our ability to continue in existence. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Note 4 — Prepaid Expenses
On February 8, 2018 the Company entered into an agreement with an unrelated third party for the purpose of designing, purchasing and reselling greenhouses for sale. Under the agreement the Company was to contribute its expertise in construction, and the other party its expertise in designing, procuring and operating greenhouses. In April of 2018 the third party informed the Company that it was unable to satisfy its duties under the agreement due to unrelated hardships. Upon its departure, the Company agreed with four (4) separate purchasers to complete the agreement, which includes the design, purchase and resale of six (6) greenhouses to purchasers.
As of March 31, 2018 the Company had received $341,216 in deposits from the purchasers which were recorded as Customer Deposits on the balance sheet, and had prepaid for the manufacture and sale of the greenhouses $257,962 as Prepaid Expenses.
Note 5 — Convertible Note Payable Due to Related Party
As part of a transaction on December 15, 2017, that was accounted as a Reverse Merger, the Company issued a convertible note payable in the amount of $900,000 to the members of Red Earth. The managing partner and 50% owner of Red Earth at the time of the transaction was Paris Balaouras, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The convertible note payable is due October 15, 2018. The note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the holder’s discretion at a conversion price of $0.75 per share. The note accrues interest, commencing six months from the issuance date, at a rate equal to one half of one percent (0.50%) per annum. Interest shall be payable on the maturity date or the conversion date, if applicable.
The Company assessed the embedded conversion feature of the note payable and determined that the fair value of the underlying common stock at inception did not exceed the conversion price of the convertible note. Since, at the time the convertible note was issued, the Company’s common stock had limited publicly traded volume, the Company based the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the sales of the Company’s common stock, which were sold at $0.75 per share.
In January 2018, the $900,000 convertible note payable due to a related party was repaid in full.
Note 6 — Capital Stock
During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company sold and issued an aggregate of 382,001 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.75 per share for gross proceeds of $286,501. In addition, the Company received $100,000 pursuant to a stock subscription agreement to purchase 133,333 shares of common stock at $0.75 per share, but the shares had not been issued as of August 24, 2018.
During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company issued an aggregate of 1,448 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for professional services valued at $1,086.

Note 7 — Warrants
Prior to the Reverse Merger, the Company had issued warrants as compensation for consulting services. The warrants expire between June 2019 and October 2019. The following table summarizes all stock warrant activity of the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2018:

Litigation
There are no legal proceedings which are pending or have been threatened against us or any of our officers, directors or control persons of which management is aware.
Note 9 — Subsequent Events
Subsequent to March 31, 2018, the Company sold and issued an aggregate of 413,332 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.75 per share for gross proceeds of $309,999. In addition, the Company received $100,000 pursuant to a stock subscription agreement to purchase 133,333 shares of common stock at $0.75 per share, but the shares had not been issued as of August 24, 2018.
Subsequent to March 31, 2018, the Company issued an aggregate of 5,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for professional services valued at $3,750.
In April 2018, the Company entered into a management agreement with a Nevada company (the “Licensed Operator”) that holds a cultivation license that permits it to engage in the lawful cultivation of marijuana for sale under the laws of the State of Nevada. The term of the agreement is for 8 years. The Licensed Operator has engaged the Company to develop, manage, and operate a licensed cultivation facility on property owned by the Licensed Operator. The Company, at its sole cost and expense, has agreed to complete the construction of a 120,000 square-foot outdoor grow facility, including the construction of an 8,000 square-foot building and installation of security fencing, meeting the State of Nevada building codes and regulations.
Upon completion of the build-out of the outdoor grow facility and obtaining the appropriate approvals from the local and state authorities, the Company has committed to generate gross sales of at least $5 million per year from product cultivated from the outdoor grow facility. The Licensed Operator may terminate the agreement if sales fall below the $5 million minimum requirement as defined in the agreement. Prior to the termination of the agreement, the Company may cure any applicable deficiency by paying the Licensed Operator 10% of the deficiency.
6 |
Pursuant to the management agreement, the Licensed Operator will retain 15% of the net revenues generated from product cultivated from the outdoor grow facility and 85% of the net revenues will be retained by the Company. Upon execution of the agreement, the Company paid $300,000 to the Licensed Operator as consideration for the opportunity to construct and manage the outdoor grow facility on the Licensed Operator’s property. In exchange for the initial consideration, the Licensed Operator has agreed not to retain 15% of the first $2 million of net revenues generated from the outdoor grow facility. In addition, the Company has agreed to pay the Licensed Operator $7,000 per month for compliance, security, and administration costs incurred by the Licensed Operator during the term of the agreement.
On July 1, 2018 the Company entered into a Corporate Advisory Agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) with a New York City based consulting company (the “Consultant”) to provide business management, corporate compliance and related services to MJ Holdings and its subsidiaries. The Advisory Agreement is for a term of 12 months and provides for payment for services to be rendered, pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, by the issuance of 14,444 shares of the Company’s common stock during the term of the Advisory Agreement. These shares are exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act and such shares shall be restricted for a period of two years from the date of issuance unless otherwise registered. The Advisory Agreement also grants to the Consultant an option to acquire up to 10,000 additional shares of the Company’s common stock at a strike price to be determined.
On August 9, 2018 (the “Transaction Date”), the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which the Company sold and issued 2,500 shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”) to a single institutional, accredited investor for $1,000 per share or an aggregate subscription of $2,500,000. Subject to a standard “4.99% Beneficial Ownership Limitation blocker,” the Preferred Stock is convertible into 3,333,334 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.75 per share, subject to adjustment as described in the Series A Certificate of Designation.
The Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the investor, pursuant to which the Company is obligated to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), within 30 calendar days of the Transaction Date, to register for resale the shares of common stock underlying the Preferred Stock. If the Commission has not declared the registration statement effective by the 60th calendar day following the Transaction Date (or, in the event of a “full review” by the Commission, the 90th calendar day following the Transaction Date), or upon the occurrence of other events, then the Company shall pay to the investor an amount in cash, as partial liquidated damages and not as a penalty, equal to the product of 4.0% multiplied by the aggregate subscription amount paid by the investor pursuant to the Purchase Agreement on a monthly basis until the event has been cured.
On August 13, 2018, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation of its Series A Convertible Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to designate a series of its convertible preferred stock, consisting of 2,500 shares. The stated value of each share of Preferred Stock is $1,000. Subject to a standard “4.99% Beneficial Ownership Limitation blocker,” each share of Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time or from time to time at a conversion price equivalent of $0.75 per share, subject to adjustment as described in Certificate of Designation.
On August 13, 2018 (the “Effective Transaction Date”), the Company closed the transactions contemplated by an Exclusive Distribution Agreement (the “Agreement”). The Agreement is between the Company and a designer and seller (the “Seller”) of a series of related products, all of which are designed to be utilized to consume cannabis products by vaporizing oil and other products related thereto (the “Goods”). The Company has the exclusive right to distribute the Goods in the territory of Nevada (the “Territory”). The Agreement further requires the Company to advertise and market the Goods in the Territory.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company purchased certain Goods from the Seller and tendered the sum of two million dollars ($2,000,000). The funds were transferred to the Seller on the Effective Transaction Date. The Seller has applied for patent protection in respect of one of the products. As of the date of this report, the patent application is still pending.
The initial term of the Agreement is for one year with additional successive one-year renewals, subject to certain standard termination provisions. The Agreement is subject to standard termination provisions; however, the Seller has the option to terminate the Agreement, on 30 days’ written notice, if the Company fails to purchase a sufficient minimum quantity of Goods from the Seller. The Company has met its obligations for the first year of the Agreement ($2,000,000). Thereafter, for each renewal term, the Company’s minimum purchase obligation for the Goods is currently $500,000, subject to good faith negotiation at the end of each year. Notwithstanding the exclusivity provided by the Agreement, the Seller reserves the right to sell Goods, directly or indirectly, to a specific retail group (the “Excluded Account”). In such event, the Seller shall pay to the Company a fee equivalent to 5% of the gross sales of the Goods that the Seller sold to an Excluded Account in Nevada. The Company, however, does not have the right to appoint sub-distributors or sell Goods through any third party. In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Agreement, the Seller granted to the Company a non-exclusive, non-transferrable, and non-sub licensable fully paid license agreement. The Agreement provides standard cross-indemnity provisions.

The terms “MJ Holdings, Inc.,” “MJ Holdings,” “MJ,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and the “Company” refer to MJ Holdings, Inc.
Company Background
MJ Holdings, Inc. is a holding company, whose subsidiaries provide infrastructure, consulting and construction services, in addition to holding, and managing third-party state issued cultivation and production licenses.
MJ Holdings, Inc. was originally incorporated on November 17, 2006, as Securitas EDGAR Filings, Inc. under the laws of the State of Nevada. Prior to the formation of Securitas EDGAR Filings Inc., the business was operated as Xpedient EDGAR Filings, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, formed on October 31, 2005. On November 21, 2005, Xpedient EDGAR Filings LLC amended its Articles of Organization to change its name to Securitas EDGAR Filings, LLC. On January, 21 2009, Securitas EDGAR Filings LLC merged into Securitas EDGAR Filings, Inc., a Nevada corporation. On February 14, 2014, we amended and restated our Articles of Incorporation and changed our name to MJ Holdings, Inc.
From February 2014 to January 2017, we owned and leased real estate properties zoned for legalized marijuana operations to licensed marijuana operators.
On November 22, 2016, in connection with a plan to divest ourselves of our real estate business, we submitted to our stockholders an offer to exchange (the “Exchange Offer”) our common stock for shares in MJ Real Estate Partners, LLC (“MJRE”), an entity newly formed for the sole purpose of effecting the Exchange Offer. On January 10, 2017, the Company exchanged 1,800,000 shares of its common stock for 1,800,000 shares of MJRE’s common units, representing membership interests in MJRE. Effective February 1, 2017, the Company transferred its ownership interests in the real estate properties and its subsidiaries, through which the Company holds ownership of the real estate properties, to MJRE. MJRE also assumed the senior notes and any and all obligations associated with the real estate properties and business, effective February 1, 2017.
Reverse Merger
On December 15, 2017, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Red Earth LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“Red Earth”) established in October 2016, in exchange for 52,732,969 shares of our common stock and a Promissory Note in the amount of $900,000, payable to the members of Red Earth. The managing partner and 50% owner of Red Earth at the time of the transaction was Paris Balaouras, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The convertible note payable is due October 15, 2018. The note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the holder’s discretion at a conversion price of $0.75 per share. The note accrues interest, commencing six months from the issuance date, at a rate equal to one half of one percent (0.50%) per annum. Interest shall be payable on the maturity date or the conversion date, if applicable. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse merger, whereby Red Earth was considered the accounting acquirer and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. As a result of the acquisition, the members of Red Earth became the beneficial owners of approximately 88% of the Company’s common stock immediately following the acquisition, obtained controlling interest of the Company, and retained key management positions of the Company. In accordance with the accounting treatment for a “reverse merger” or a “reverse acquisition,” the Company’s historical financial statements prior to the reverse merger will be replaced with the historical financial statements of Red Earth prior to the reverse merger, in all future filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The consolidated financial statements after completion of the reverse merger will include the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the combined company from and after the closing date of the reverse merger.

Our Business
Through our acquisition of Red Earth and its wholly owned subsidiary, HDGLV, LLC (“HDGLV”) we expect to commence legal marijuana cultivation activities in the third quarter of 2018 upon approval by the Nevada Department of Taxation of the transfer of a Provisional Cultivation License to Red Earth and the required state and city approvals for our cultivation facility. It is our intention to grow our business through the acquisition of existing companies and/or through the development of new opportunities that can provide a 360-degree spectrum of infrastructure (dispensaries), cultivation and production management, and consulting services in the regulated cannabis industry.
Through Red Earth, we hold a provisional State of Nevada issued cannabis cultivation license, and, through HDGLV, we hold a triple-net leasehold, with an option to buy, on a 17,298 square-foot building, which will be home to our cultivation facility.
In April, 2018, the State of Nevada finalized and approved the transfer of the provisional Medical Marijuana Establishment Registration Certificate (the “Certificate”) from its wholly owned subsidiary, Red Earth, LLC (“Red Earth”) to the Company. The Certificate, when perfected, will allow the Company to commence legal marijuana cultivation activities in the State of Nevada. HDGLV, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Red Earth, holds a triple-net leasehold, with an option to buy, on a 17,298 square-foot building, which will be home to our cultivation facility. The Company expect Phase 1 of this facility to be completed in the third quarter of 2018. The Company expects final approval by the State of Nevada, Department of Taxation of its Certificate and issuance of a Business License from the City of Las Vegas in the third quarter of 2018.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, management performed, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on the evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2018, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
Due to resource constraints, material weaknesses are evident to management regarding our inability to generate all the necessary disclosure for inclusion in our filings with the SEC, which is due to the lack of resources and segregation of duties. We lack sufficient personnel with the appropriate level of knowledge, experience and training in GAAP to meet the demands for a public company, including the accounting skills and understanding necessary to fulfill the requirements of GAAP-based reporting. This weakness causes us to not fully identify and resolve accounting and disclosure issues that could lead to a failure to perform timely internal control and reviews. In addition, the Company has not established an audit committee, does not have any independent outside directors on the Company’s Board of Directors, and lacks documentation of its internal control processes.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change to our internal controls or in other factors that could affect these controls during the three month period ended March 31, 2018 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. However, our management is currently seeking to improve our controls and procedures in an effort to remediate the deficiency described above.
