Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2018 of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 17, 2018. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future quarters or for the full year. Notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements which substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for fiscal 2017 as reported in the Form 10-K have been omitted.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and accounts receivables. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions. At times such amounts may exceed federally insured limits.

As of June 30, 2018, three customers accounted for approximately 29.9% (10.9%, 10.0%, and 9.0%) of accounts receivables. As of December 31, 2017, three customers represented approximately 23.1%, (10.5%, 6.7% and 5.9%) of accounts receivables.

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of acquired businesses over the estimated fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill and other intangibles with indefinite useful lives are not amortized but tested for impairment annually or more frequently when events or circumstances indicates that the carrying value of a reporting unit more likely than not exceeds its fair value. The goodwill impairment test is applied by performing a qualitative assessment before calculating the fair value of the reporting unit. If, on the basis of qualitative factors, it is considered not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying amount, further testing of goodwill for impairment would not be required. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The Company performed a qualitative assessment and determined there was no impairment of goodwill for the six-months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Intangible assets are recorded at fair value as part of the acquisitions as described in Note 3. The balance as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 is reflected net of accumulated amortization. Definite lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful life using the straight-line method, which is determined by identifying the period over which the cash flows from the asset are expected to be generated, typically 15 to 42 years. For the six-months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 amortization expense totaled $751,783 and $195,961, respectively. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, accumulated amortization was $2,120,351 and $1,368,568, respectively.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for share-based compensation to employees in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) 718 Compensation—Stock Compensation. Share-based compensation to employees is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite employee service period. The Company accounts for share-based compensation to nonemployees in accordance with ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Nonemployees. Equity instruments issued to nonemployees are valued at the earlier of a commitment date or upon completion of the services, based on the fair value of the equity instruments and is recognized as expense over the service period. The Company estimates the fair value of share -based payments using the Black-Scholes option- pricing model for common stock options and warrants and the latest fair market price of the Company’s common stock for common share issuances. The Company has not experienced any forfeitures as of March 31, 2018, but did experience immaterial forfeitures during the second quarter of 2018. Management does not anticipate future forfeitures to be material.

Included in prepaid expenses as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 are prepaid share-based compensation of approximately $763,000 and $1,000,000, of which approximately $354,000 and $409,000 are presented as long-term on the consolidated balance sheets under the caption Prepaid Expenses, long-term as of June 30, 2018 and approximately $500,000 and $500,000 are presented as long-term on the consolidated balance sheets under the caption Prepaid Expenses, long-term d of December 31, 2017. These amounts represent the prepaid compensation to employees and certain non-employees for services rendered.

Long-lived Assets

Long-lived assets consisted of property and equipment, customer relationships, tradenames and patents and are reviewed for impairment in accordance with the guidance of the FASB Topic ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment. The Company tests for impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Through June 30, 2018, we had not experienced impairment losses on our long-lived assets as management determined that there were no indicators that a carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which replaces most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP and is intended to improve and converge with international standards the financial reporting requirements for revenue from contracts with customers. ASU 2014-09 and its amendments were included primarily in ASC 606. The core principle of ASC 606 is that an entity should recognize revenue for the transfer of goods or services equal to the amount that it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods or services. ASC 606 also requires additional disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments. We adopted ASC 606 effective January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective method. There was no impact to the opening balance of reinvested earnings as of January 1, 2018.

Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted

In January 2017, the FASB issued 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The amendments in this ASU simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test and eliminating the requirement for a reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment. Instead, under this pronouncement, an entity would perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and would recognize an impairment change for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized is not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In addition, income tax effects will be considered, if applicable. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT’S LIQUIDITY PLANS

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Since inception, the Company has financed its operations primarily through equity and debt financings. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $16,518,549 and $10,500,883 (all of which was attributed to the losses of Búcha, Inc., and one-time expenses associated with the integration and up-listing onto the NASDAQ exchange and acquisitions of Maverick, PMC and Marley during the year ended December 31, 2017 and Xing during the year ended December 31, 2016). For the six-months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, cash flows used in operating activities were ($6,384,236) and ($6,676,764).

The 2017 acquisitions of Maverick, PMC and Marley (see Note 3) required significant cash outlays for integration and operations. The Company continues to raise funds through the issuance of its equity securities, See Note 12, Subsequent Events. With the additional proceeds received (see Subsequent Events note)and from working capital, the Company believes that its current working capital will be sufficient to meet the Company’s operating liquidity, capital expenditure and debt repayment requirements for at least another year.

NOTE 3 – ACQUISITIONS

Maverick Brands, LLC.

On March 31, 2017, the Company acquired all of the assets of Maverick Brands, LLC or Maverick. Maverick is engaged in the manufacturing and sale of coconut water and other beverages. The acquisition helped the Company expand its capabilities and product offering. The operating results of Maverick have been consolidated with those of the Company beginning April 1, 2017. Total purchase consideration paid was $11,086,000, which consisted of $2,000,000 of cash and 2,200,000 shares of common stock valued at $9,086,000. The common stock issued was valued at $4.13 per share, which was the closing price of the Company’s stock on the date of the acquisition. The acquisition was subject to customary closing conditions. All of the goodwill was assigned to the Company’s Brands segment. All of the goodwill and intangible assets recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The fair value of the customer list was valued using the income approach, as the Company obtained an independent third-party valuation. In addition, the market approach was utilized to determine the fair value of the trade name and recipes.

The purchase price was allocated to the net assets acquired based on their estimated fair values as follows:

Cash	$2,000,000
Stock	9,086,000
Purchase price	$11,086,000

Accounts receivable	$245,426
Inventories	1,523,413
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	211,213
Property and equipment, net	68,282
Other intangible assets acquired (trade names, recipes and customer lists)	6,660,441
Accounts payable and accrued expenses	(1,345,155)
Assumption of note payable	(1,427,051)
	5,936,569
Goodwill	5,149,431
	$11,086,000

Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the preliminary fair value of the underlying net tangible and identifiable intangible assets. In accordance with applicable accounting standards, goodwill is not amortized but instead is tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if certain indicators are present.

In connection with the acquisition of Maverick, the Company incurred transactional costs totaling $231,925, which has been recognized as expense as of March 31, 2017. These costs have been reflected in other expenses.

The consideration for the acquisition was amended pursuant to an amendment to the asset purchase agreement on June 9, 2017. The acquisition closed on June 13, 2017.

At closing, the Company received substantially all of the operating assets of Marley, consisting of inventory, accounts receivable, fixed assets and intellectual property in exchange for a purchase price of 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company agreed to an earn out payment of $1,250,000 in cash if the gross revenues of the Marley business during any trailing twelve calendar month period after the closing are equal to or greater than $15,000,000. The earnout, if applicable, will be paid as $625,000 on or before the 15th day after the end of the first trailing twelve calendar month period in which the earnout condition is satisfied, $312,500 not later than the first anniversary of the initial earnout payment, and $312,500 not later than the second anniversary of the initial earnout payment. The fair value of the earnout was valued using the weighted average return on asset. The shares of common stock issued pursuant to the acquisition have not been registered, but the holders were granted piggyback registration rights, as well as demand registration rights, with the demand registration rights beginning twelve months from the Closing Date. The acquisition was subject to customary closing conditions. The shares were fair valued at $6.20 per share. All of the goodwill was assigned to the Company’s Brands segment. All of the goodwill and intangible assets recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The fair value of the customer list was valued using the cost approach, as the Company obtained an independent third-party valuation. In addition, the market approach was utilized to determine the fair value of the trade name and recipes.

Overview

We are a Colorado-based healthy beverage company engaged in the development and commercialization of a portfolio of organic, natural and other better-for-you beverages. We market a full portfolio of Ready-to-Drink (“RTD”) better-for-you beverages including competitive offerings in the kombucha, tea, coffee, functional waters, relaxation drinks, energy drinks, rehydrating beverages, and functional medical beverage segments. We differentiate our brands through superior functional performance characteristics and ingredients and offer products that are 100% organic and natural, with no high-fructose corn syrup (“HFCS”), no-genetically modified organisms (“GMOs”), no preservatives, and only natural flavors, fruits, and ingredients. We rank as the 56th largest non-alcoholic beverage company in the world, one of largest healthy beverage companies, and the fastest growing according to Beverage Industry Magazine annual rankings and Markets and Markets over the past two years.

Our company mission is to inspire and elevate the human spirit. We intend to do this by not only providing healthier and better-for-you beverage alternatives, but also by embodying “Live Healthy” in all we do as an example for consumers. By staying true to that purpose and via flawlessly executing our business plan, we expect to achieve our corporate goal of becoming the world’s leading healthy beverage company. Leading however does not necessarily mean largest. Rather, we intend to have the leading brands for consumers, provide the leading growth for retailers and distributors, and leading return on investment for shareholders. Our target market is health conscious consumers, who are becoming more interested and better educated on what is included in their diets, causing them to shift away from less healthy options such as carbonated soft drinks or other high caloric beverages and towards alternative beverages choices. Management believes consumer awareness of the benefits of healthier lifestyles and the availability of heathier beverages is rapidly accelerating worldwide, and we are capitalizing on that shift as the only one stop shop provider of healthy beverages.

Highlights

We generate revenue through the commercialization of our portfolio of brands to consumers via our retailer partners and directly via our own Ecommerce system. We believe that on a consolidated basis, and with the reductions in operating expenses in each of the acquired companies in 2016 and 2017, the integrated company will generate sufficient cash flow internally to meet its needs. We have eliminated more than $15 million in costs from all of its business, and believe there are substantial incremental COGS and operating expenses reduction opportunities. As the Company changes its mix of products and channels during the course of the strategic plan period, we believe that the Company can reach 50% gross margin, and reduced operating expenses to less than 25% of net sales, whilst increasing investment behind brand building.

In addition to driving organic growth on the healthy beverage platform the Company has established, the Company has recently taken actions to strengthen its financial flexibility. In April 2018, the Company raised $4 million dollars through the sale of equity to meet working capital needs for inventory in expanded distribution. In June 2018, the firm emplaced a $4.75 million financing at an annualized interest rate of 8%.

The following are highlights of our operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2018 versus the three months ended June 30, 2017:

Gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was 13.2% compared to 22.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2017, as we incurred significant incremental production and shipping costs associated with reallocating what inventory we did have available to its most vital customers.

Operating Expenses. During the quarter ended June 30, 2018, our operating expenses were $5,004,645, as compared to $3,724,749 for the three months ended June 30, 2017. The increase was primarily attributable to the infrastructures and integration of the Maverick, Marley and PMC acquisitions and the non-cash associated with stock compensation expense and increased amortization expense attributable to the intangible assets.

Adjusted EBITDA. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, adjusted EBITDA was ($1,602,811) driven by our temporary pressure on working capital and the resulting inability to procure the necessary inventory to meet demand, coupled with the incremental costs associated with production and shipping of available inventory.

Management defines adjusted EBITDA as earnings before income tax, depreciation and amortization, one-time compensation and acquisition charges, interest expense, shared-based compensation and other acquisition-related integration charges. Management believes adjusted EBITDA to be a meaningful indicator of our performance that provides useful information to investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations because it removes material one-time and non-recurring charges. These one-time charges are not anticipated to be incurred within a two-year period. The Company does not anticipate further capital raises subsequent to the funding noted in the Subsequent Events footnote. As a result, certain professional fees incurred in the connection with raising capital will not be incurred.

We consider quantitative and qualitative factors in assessing whether to adjust for the impact of items that may be significant or that could affect an understanding of our ongoing financial and business performance or trends.

Non-GAAP information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as or comparable to similar non-GAAP measures presented by other companies.

The following table includes the reconciliation of our consolidated US GAAP net loss to our consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2018:

Revenues

Net revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2018 were $13,362,408 as compared to $15,104,795 for the three months ended June 30, 2017, due primarily to inventory shortfalls of approximately $5.0 million. DSD Division revenues were consistent for the three months ended June 30, 2018, despite the inventory impact. In the Brands Division, significant new distribution for the Company’s brands occurred in the quarter that the company was unable to completely fulfill, but is expected to have full impact in the second half of the year. In 2017 the Company primarily focused on integrating the acquisitions, building the infrastructure, and rearchitecting the brand portfolio and developing new products within its core brands. With those components now largely in place, we believe that our “new” portfolio in broader distribution is in a position to contribute significant greater organic growth.

Cost of Goods Sold

DSD Division costs of sales were consistent with the three months ended June 30, 2017. Numerous one-time production, internal freight and transfer issues impact cost of goods sold, especially in the Brands Division during the quarter that are not expected to be repeated once the working capital challenge for the Company is solved.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2018, our operating expenses were $5,004,646, as compared to $3,724,749 for the three months ended June 30, 2017.

During the six-months ended June 30, 2018, our operating expenses were $10,108,701, as compared to $6,586,198 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase was primarily attributable to the infrastructures and integration of the Maverick, Marley and PMC acquisitions and the non-cash associated with stock compensation expense.

Other Expenses

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2018, we had cash of $213,446. The Company has always operated with a limited cash balance. This led management to the decision to raise additional capital through the sale and issuance of an additional 2,285,715 shares of common stock on April 10, 2018 in a public offering for net proceeds of approximately $3,500,000. On July 20, 2018, The Company raised $4.75 million through the sale of a convertible note. The conversion price of the convertible note is $1.89 and the interest rate is 8%. Management continues to explore its options to improve its working capital position, including closing a planned asset-backed line of credit in the immediate future. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to consummate the financing facility upon terms acceptable to the Company or if at all.

The acquisitions in 2017 and 2016 substantially improved the Company’s scale and ability to be profitable. Through the sale of additional equity and a convertible note in the second quarter of 2018, we have improved our working capital position and funded operating losses. However, we will continue to explore all options to improve The Company’s liquidity and working capital position so its can grow it branded business and reach consistent profitability. We may also seek to sell additional equity and debt securities. Any sale of additional equity securities will result in dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness will result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financial covenants that could restrict our operations or modify our plans to grow the business. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any failure by us to raise additional funds on terms favorable to us, or at all, will limit our ability to expand our business operations and could harm our overall business prospects.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

Effects of Inflation

We do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our business, revenues or operating results during the periods presented.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our significant accounting policies are more fully described in the notes to our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included herein for the quarter ended June 30, 2018.

Newly Issued Accounting Pronouncements

During the year ended December 30, 2017, we early adopted the new lease accounting standards issued by the FASB ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. This ASU establishes a right-of-use (ROU) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The impact of adopting this standard resulted in an ROU and lease liability on the consolidated balance sheet of approximately $4MM as of June 30, 2018.

We do not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Inventories and Provision for Excess or Expired Inventory

Inventories consist of tea ingredients, packaging and finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market value. Provisions for excess inventory are included in cost of goods sold and have historically been immaterial but adequate to provide for losses on its raw materials.

Long-lived Assets

Our long-lived assets consisted of property and equipment and customer relationships and are reviewed for impairment in accordance with the guidance of the FASB Topic ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment. We test for impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. For the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, we had not recognized impairment losses on our long-lived assets as management determined that there were no indicators that a carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable.

-26-

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of acquired businesses over the estimated fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually at the reporting unit level or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The goodwill impairment test is applied by performing a qualitative assessment before calculating the fair value of the reporting unit. If, on the basis of qualitative factors, it is considered not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying amount, further testing of goodwill for impairment would not be required.

Intangible assets are recorded at acquisition cost less accumulated amortization and impairment. Definite lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful life using the straight-line method, which is determined by identifying the period over which the cash flows from the asset are expected to be generated.

Share-Based Compensation

We account for stock-based compensation to employees in accordance with FASB ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation. Stock-based compensation to employees is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite employee service period. We account for stock-based compensation to other than employees in accordance with FASB ASC 505-50. Equity instruments issued to other than employees are valued at the earlier of a commitment date or upon completion of the services, based on the fair value of the equity instruments and is recognized as expense over the service period. We estimate the fair value of stock-based payments using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model for common stock options and warrants and the latest fair market price of the Company’s common stock for common share issuances.

Capital Expenditures

Other Capital Expenditures

We expect to incur research and development costs, as well as marketing expenses in connection with the expansion of our business and the development of our products.

Future Contractual Obligations and Commitment

We incur contractual obligations and financial commitments in the normal course of our operations and financing activities. Contractual obligations include future cash payments required under existing contracts, such as debt and lease agreements. These obligations may result from both general financing activities and from commercial arrangements that are directly supported by related operating activities.

As of June 30, 2018 we have no future contractual obligations or commitments, other than lease and debt payments as defined in the Company’s balance sheet.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2018 and December 30, 2017, respectively, we have not entered into any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement with an entity unconsolidated under which it has:

a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to the unconsolidated entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit;

liquidity or market risk support to such entity for such assets;

an obligation, including a contingent obligation, under a contract that would be accounted for as a derivative instrument; or

an obligation, including a contingent obligation, arising out of a variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that is held by, and material to us, where such entity provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support to or engages in leasing, hedging, or research and development services with us.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have not made a change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Internal control systems, no matter how well designed and operated, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even a system which is determined to be effective cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues have been detected or prevented. Our systems of internal controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

Under the oversight of the Audit Committee, management will continue to review and make any changes it deems necessary to the overall design of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, including implementing improvements in policies and procedures. We are committed to a proper internal control environment and will continue to implement measures to improve the Company’s internal control over financial reporting in response to our continued operational development.
