Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 
Note 1—DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Description of Business
 
The Company is a growth stage health and wellness company. Presently, their business consists of pazoo.com, an online, content driven, ad supported health and wellness web site for people and their pets. Additionally, this site has e-commerce functionality which allows pazoo.com to be an online retailer of nutritional foods/supplements, wellness goods, and fitness apparel. Pazoo, Inc. does not have any brick and mortar establishments.
 
Further, the Company entered the pharmaceutical testing laboratory market with their acquisitions of MA & Associates, LLC which will operate pharmaceutical testing laboratories in Nevada, and Harris Lee Holdings, LLC which will operate pharmaceutical testing laboratories within other states, or license testing protocols as independently owned laboratories.  These pharmaceutical testing laboratories focus on providing quality control services to the medical cannabis industry.  The mission is to protect the public health by providing infrastructure and analytical services to legally-authorized cannabis producers and distributors as well as to regulators.  States that have legalized cannabis are developing cannabis health and safety criteria that we will fulfill through their testing laboratories.  Lastly, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, CK Distribution LLC, provides the marketing and sales agent for the distribution of non-controlled hemp products throughout the USA. Non-controlled hemp products are the items utilized by the industry that support grow facilities, infusion companies and dispensaries.
 
Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Pazoo, Inc. (“Pazoo” or the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries MA & Associates, LLC and Harris Lee Holdings, LLC.  These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). All significant inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

In March 2016, the Company effected a 1-for-100 reverse stock split of the outstanding common stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”) whereby every one hundred (100) shares of outstanding common stock decreased to one (1) share of common stock. Similarly, the number of shares of common stock, par value $0.001 (“Common Stock”) into which each outstanding Preferred stock and warrant to purchase common stock is to be exercisable decreased on a 1-for-100 basis and the exercise price of each outstanding preferred stock and warrant to purchase common stock increased proportionately. The impact of this reverse stock split has been retroactively applied to the financial statements and the related notes.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 as filed on April 15, 2016.

Equity Method Investments

Equity method investees are all entities over which the Company has significant influence, but not control. Significant influence is presumed with a shareholding of between 20% and 50% of the voting rights. Investments in equity method investees are accounted for using the equity method of accounting and are initially recognized at cost. In 2015, both entities became wholly owned subsidiaries.
 
Use of Estimates
 
In accordance with GAAP the preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
 
 
 
 
On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, accrued expenses, financing operations, and contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements include estimates as to the appropriate carrying value of certain assets and liabilities which are not readily apparent from other sources. These accounting policies are described at relevant sections in the notes to the financial statements. 
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Pazoo and its subsidiaries, which are wholly owned. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Fixed Asset
 
Fixed assets are presented at cost at the date of acquisition. Depreciation and amortization is calculated based on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the depreciable assets, or in the case of leasehold improvements, the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the asset, a portion of which is allocated to cost of sales. Improvements are capitalized while repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
 
The Company’s intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical-cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate.  The Company assesses recoverability of the asset by comparing the undiscounted future net cash flows expected to result from the asset to its carrying value.  If the carrying value exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flows of the asset, an impairment loss is measured and recognized.  An impairment loss is measured as the difference between the net book value and the fair value of the long-lived asset.  The Steep Hill and MA licenses were evaluated for impairment and no impairment loss was incurred as of March 31, 2016.  

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Common Share
 
Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share reflects, in addition to the weighted average number of common shares, the potential dilution if shares of convertible preferred stock were converted into shares of common stock and a corresponding accrued 5% dividend, unless the effects of such exercises and conversions would have been anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new guidance related to how an entity should recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. The guidance specifies that an entity who is a lessee under lease agreements should recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for those leases classified as operating leases under previous FASB guidance. Accounting for leases by lessors is largely unchanged under the new guidance. The guidance is effective for us beginning in the first quarter of 2019. Early adoption is permitted.  In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. The Company is evaluating the impact of adopting this guidance on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

In March 2016, the FASB issued new guidance which involves several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. Under the new standard, income tax benefits and deficiencies are to be recognized as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement and the tax effects of exercised or vested awards should be treated as discrete items in the reporting period in which they occur. An entity should also recognize excess tax benefits regardless of whether the benefit reduces taxes payable in the current period. Excess tax benefits should be classified along with other income tax cash flows as an operating activity. In regards to forfeitures, the entity may make an entity-wide accounting policy election to either estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest or account for forfeitures when they occur. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 including interim periods within that reporting period, however early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the guidance to determine the Company's adoption method and the effect it will have on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
 
 

 
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments-Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. The amendments in ASU 2016-01, among other things, requires equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; Requires separate presentation of financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (i.e., securities or loans and receivables); Eliminate the requirement to disclose the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost for entities that are not public business entities. The amendments in this ASU are effective for non-public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning December 15, 2019.  Early adoption of the amendments in the ASU is permitted as early as the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years.  The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the consolidated financial position and results of operations and statements of cash flows.
 
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40)—Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, or ASU 2014-15. ASU 2014-15 provides guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is a substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. Specifically, ASU 2014-15 defines the term substantial doubt, requires an evaluation of every reporting period including interim periods, provides principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plan, requires certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans, requires an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and requires an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued or available to be issued. The amendments in ASU 2014-15 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within those reporting periods. Earlier adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this guidance may have on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2015-16—Business Combinations, as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards (the Simplification Initiative). The amendment eliminates the requirement to retrospectively apply adjustments made to provisional amounts recognized in a business combination. The amendment is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The Company expects to adopt this guidance for the year ended December 31, 2016. The Company does not expect this guidance to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

On May 28, 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, which delayed the effective date of the new standard from January 1, 2017 to January 1, 2018. The FASB also agreed to allow entities to choose to adopt the standard as of the original effective date. This ASU permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor have we determined the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed to have a material impact on our present or future consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, derivatives, convertible debt, and accounts payable. The Company believes that the recorded values of all of its other financial instruments approximate their fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations. The fair value of our long-term debt is determined by using estimated market prices. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are categorized based on whether or not the inputs are observable in the market and the degree that the inputs are observable. The categorization of financial instruments within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy is prioritized into three levels (with Level 3 being the lowest) defined as follows:
 
Level 1: Inputs are based on quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurement date.
Level 2: Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and/or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active near the measurement date.
Level 3: Inputs include management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The inputs are unobservable in the market and significant to the instrument’s valuation.
 
 

 
Revenue Recognition
 
Revenues are recognized when evidence of an agreement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, collectability is reasonably assured and goods have been delivered or services performed.  The Company is paid revenue from various advertising sources.  Typically advertising revenue is based upon the activity reports received from the advertising brokers and revenue is paid in accordance with the broker agreements at varying intervals from 30 to 75 days following the close of the particular advertising period.  The Company recognizes the revenue, and records the accounts receivable, upon receipt of the activity report from the broker.  In the event payment is not received within 120 days of the due date, the Company with classify such amount as an account where collection is doubtful.  At this time the Company has no reason to believe any accounts are not collectible and therefore no allowance for doubtful accounts has been made at this time for any advertising revenue.

Note 2—GOING CONCERN
 
During the three months ended March 2015 and 2016, the Company incurred net losses of $1,924,528 and $4,342,042, respectively. In addition, as of March 31, 2016, the Company had a working capital deficit of $7,098,307. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient cash flow and raise additional capital to meet our obligations on a timely basis and ultimately attain profitability.  If the Company is unable to generate sufficient cash flow or raise additional capital, it could be forced to cease operations.

Note 6—DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES
 
The Company evaluates all of it financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported as charges or credits to income. For option-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period.
 
Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.
 
Under ASC-815 the conversion options embedded in the notes payable described in Note 8 require liability classification because they do not contain an explicit limit to the number of shares that could be issued upon settlement. In addition, all of the Company’s outstanding common stock warrants are tainted, as they include price protection clauses, in 2014 and 2015 and accounted for as derivative liabilities.
 
The following table summarizes the changes in the derivative liabilities during three months ended March 31, 2016:

Without limiting the foregoing, the words “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Our actual results may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements as a result of the factors set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including under “Risk Factors.” You should read the following discussion and analysis together with our unaudited financial statements for the periods specified and the related notes included herein. Further reference should be made to our Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains terminology referring to Pazoo, Inc., such as “us,” “our,” and “the Company.”
 
Management intends the following discussion to assist in the understanding of our financial position and our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015.

Overview
We were incorporated as a C-Corporation in the State of Nevada as IUCSS, Inc. on November 16, 2010 and we established a fiscal year end of December 31.  On May 9, 2011, we changed our name to Pazoo, Inc. to take advantage of unique branding and website opportunities. We are a start-up health and wellness social community that has developed its website (www.pazoo.com) to provide information, services, and online products for improvement of everyday living.  Our mission is to be 1) a leading social community offering best-in-class health and wellness products for both people and pets; 2) an important resource for consumers and professionals with diverse information about health and wellness and 3) specifically as it relates to medical marijuana and the testing of medical marijuana to ensure quality and safety for the consumer.

Our principal executive offices are located at 23 Vreeland Rd, Suite 110, Florham Park NJ 07923. Our telephone number is (855) PAZOO-US. Our internet address is www.pazoo.com.

On or about April 8, 2014 Pazoo moved into the pharmaceutical testing space with the acquisition of MA & Associates, LLC a Nevada limited liability company formed with the purpose of opening a cannabis testing laboratory based in Las Vegas, Nevada to be branded under the Steep Hill labs name.   Harris Lee Holdings, LLC was formed, as a Nevada limited liability company, on or about July 23, 2014 and was formed to hold a License from Steep Hill Labs, Inc. for cannabis testing protocols and the use of the Steep Hill Labs name.   Both entities are now a wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company.  The intent is that Harris Lee Holdings, LLC will directly own and operate testing laboratories in states where permitted to do so, and sub-license the Steep Hill testing protocol in states where direct ownership would be prohibited.
 
Sources of Revenue
We currently have three lines of business relating to and revolving around the health and wellness arena:
 
 
Advertising Revenue from Our Website, www.pazoo.com.   Through advertising providers and agencies, pazoo.com is paid for every ad impression that appears on a page for which a visitor goes to. As we build our visitor base, ad revenue will increase. However, just having the traffic does not effectively increase advertising revenue. To get the full value of each visitor, the time on site must be long enough so that a visitor is interested in going to multiple pages for which there are ads on each page. The only way this will transpire is if the visitor’s experience is gratifying. This is why pazoo.com is so focused on quality content that’s interesting and informative. A bad visitor experience will result in a low time on site and fewer page views. Internet tracking tools have much improved over the past decade and will continue to improve in the coming years, especially when it comes to advertising and overall website analytics. Pazoo continues to constantly improve is this area at all times.
 
Pazoo.com has a unique and compelling online marketing platform. Pazoo.com offers the following important marketing advantages to its target audiences:
 
 
1.
A comprehensive solution as a content source – information on a full spectrum of disciplines within the health and wellness marketplace;
 
2.
Health and wellness experts that have expertise in these varied disciplines and write about their areas expertise; and
 
3.
Content that is both for the health and wellness of people as well as their pets (over 60% of American homes have pets).
 
 
 
 
 
 
E-commerce.   Our e-commerce offerings will increase as we build the traffic coming to pazoo.com. In this way we could establish a revenue source over and above advertising to increase the value of each visitor. We have the following e-commerce elements ready for an activated marketing program:
 
 
1.
An e-commerce platform that is functional;
 
2.
Relationships with manufacturers, distributors and other e-commerce companies so that increasing product offerings will not be time consuming;
 
3.
Members on the pazoo.com content team with merchandising experience: i.e. a Pazoo expert is buyer of pet products for a large pet retailer; and
 
4.
Members on the pazoo.com content team that are experienced in e-commerce marketing; i.e. we will look to offer our consumers low cost and timely delivery of product by negotiating with shipping companies to offer a flat rates on various products.
 
 
Pharmaceutical Testing Facilities.    MA & Associates was launched to provide quality control services to the medical cannabis industry. MA & Associates’ primary mission is to protect the public health by providing infrastructure and analytical services to legally authorized distributors and producers of cannabis and to regulators tracking their operations. As of June, 2015, we have acquired a 100% equity stake in MA & Associates, LLC and the testing laboratory in Las Vegas Nevada is open for business.
 
The company will provide the medical cannabis industry guidelines on how the regulation and inspection by public health authorities is to be implemented. MA & Associates’ primary customer base includes all of the licensed cannabis cultivators, in the State of Nevada, and their customers are required by law to have their products tested before they can be transferred to the dispensaries.
 
We have further expanded our footprint in this arena through Harris Lee Holdings, LLC, a company formed to take the MA & Associates testing model outside of Nevada and into other states.  The company is currently managing Harris Lee Colorado, LLC, an existing lab in Denver, Colorado, after receiving approval from the Colorado Marijuana Enforcement Division in February of 2016. The Company also announced it has leased a space in Portland, Oregon where it will be establishing a testing lab. We are in a unique position to provide the mandated health and safety testing upon which this burgeoning industry must hinge moving forward. Lastly, our newly formed wholly owned subsidiary CK Distribution LLC, provides the marketing and sales agent for the distribution of non-controlled hemp products throughout the USA. Non-controlled hemp products are the items utilized by the industry that support grow facilities, infusion companies and dispensaries.
 
Critical Accounting Policy and Estimates
Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, accrued expenses, financing operations, and contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The consolidated financial statements included in this report have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles that contemplate our continuance as a going concern. The Company has had minimal revenues and has generated losses from operation. As set forth in Note 2 of these financial statements, the continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable, if ever. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. 
 
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements.  We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
 
Subsequent Events. In accordance with FASB ASC 855-10-50-1 we evaluated our subsequent events through May 20, 2016.  Refer to Note 12, Subsequent Events, for detailed information.

Item 4     Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
 
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of and with our executive officers, David M. Cunic in his role as Chief Executive Officer and Ben Hoehn in his role as Chief Operating Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934).  Based upon that evaluation, the officers concluded that because of the limited size of our organization our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective as of March 31, 2016.
 
We have not made any changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended March 31, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
