SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

In addition to historical information, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are those that predict or describe future events or trends and that do not relate solely to historical matters. You can generally identify forward-looking statements as statements containing the words "believe," "expect," "will," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "project," "plan," "assume" or other similar expressions, or negatives of those expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. All statements contained or incorporated by reference in this quarterly report regarding our future strategy, future operations, projected financial position, estimated future revenues, projected costs, future prospects, the future of our industry and results that might be obtained by pursuing management's current plans and objectives are forward-looking statements.

You should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements because the matters they describe are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other unpredictable factors, many of which are beyond our control. Our forward-looking statements are based on the information currently available to us and speak only as of the date on the cover of this quarterly report, or, in the case of forward-looking statements in documents incorporated by reference, as of the date of the date of the filing of the document that includes the statement. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for us to predict these matters or how they may affect us. Over time, our actual results, performance or achievements will likely differ from the anticipated results, performance or achievements that are expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements, and such difference might be significant and materially adverse to our security holders. We do not undertake and specifically decline any obligation to update any forward-looking statements or to publicly announce the results of any revisions to any statements to reflect new information or future events or developments.

We have identified some of the important factors that could cause future events to differ from our current expectations and they are described in this quarterly report under the caption "Risk Factors," below, and elsewhere in this quarterly report, which you should review carefully. Please consider our forward-looking statements in light of those risks as you read this quarterly report.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

1. Nature of Business

Sugarmade, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “we”, “us” or “the/our Company”) is a publicly traded product and brand marketing company investing in products and brands with disruptive potential. We are incorporated in the state of Delaware. Our previous legal name was Diversified Opportunities, Inc.  Our Company, Sugarmade, Inc. operates through our subsidiary, S W C Group, Inc. - CA (dba CarryOutSupplies.com) (“CarryOutSupplies”).

We are headquartered in City of Industry, California, a suburb of Los Angeles, with two (2) additional warehouse locations in Southern California. As of date of this filing, we employ 25 full and part-time workers and contractors.

As of the end of the reporting period, March 31, 2017, we were involved in several businesses including 1) the manufacturer and marketing of packaging for transport of products for the emerging legal cannabis industry, 2) manufacturer and supply of products to the quick service restaurant sub-sector of the restaurant industry 3) distribution of paper products derived from non-wood sources, and 4) as a marketer of a new seasoning food product.

The Company has also launched several packaging products serving the developing legal market for cannabis. CannaShroud is a new cannabis transport packaging system specifically designed to allow for discrete and protected transportation of cannabis. DabBox, a cannabis concentrate packaging product with a unique PTFE containment system. We are also in the process of developing active packaging for the cannabis industry and is in the advanced development stages for several other cannabis storage/transport and packaging products to serve this growing market sector.

Our main business operation, CarryOutSupplies.com is a producer and wholesaler of custom printed and generic supplies servicing more than 3,000 quick service restaurants. Our products include double poly paper cups for cold beverage; disposable, clear, plastic cold cups, paper coffee cups, yogurt cups, ice cream cups, cup lids, cup sleeves, food containers, soup containers, plastic spoons and many other similar products for this market sector. CarryOutSupplies.com was founded in 2009 when the founders gained first-hand experience within the restaurant industry of the difficulty for restaurant owners to acquire custom printed supplies at a reasonable cost. Many quick service restaurants wish to acquire custom printed products, such as those embossed with logos, but the minimum order size for such customization had been cost prohibitive. With that in mind, carryoutsupplies.com was founded to provide products to this underserved section of the market. Since that time, the Company has become a key supplier to many popular U.S. franchises, particularly in the frozen dessert segments. The Company estimates it holds approximately 40% market share of generic and printed products within the take out frozen yogurt and ice cream industries. We also hold a product supply and licensing agreement of FreeHand® ThumbTray™ for the western part of the United States.

During September of 2016, the Company completed negotiations for and signed a license agreement with HUY FONG FOODS, INC. (“HFFI”), the maker of Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company was granted license to use the licensed marks of HFFI on and for products the Company is currently in process of designing and testing. Based on this agreement and a separate license agreement signed in 2015 with Seasoning Stixs International, LLC, the Company’s plan was to introduce a new culinary seasoning product named Sriracha Seasoning Stixs. Sriracha Seasoning Stixs are encapsulated Huy Fong Sriracha Sauce and other seasonings in the form of a stick, which are inserted into meat, fish and poultry prior to cooking. Sriracha Seasoning Stixs are a hard solid at room temperature, but as heat is applied the sticks begin to liquefy allowing the meat fibers to act like a sponge absorbing the seasonings and flavors that had previously been encapsulated in the stick.

The Company is on target to complete its California manufacturing facility, which will produce Sriracha Seasoning Stix. The facility and an additional contract manufacturing site located on the East coast will provide the Company with initial manufacturing capability of thousands of bottles of Sriracha Seasoning Stix on a weekly basis and thousands into millions more per month.

We are also a distributor of paper made from 100% reclaimed sugarcane fiber, enhanced with bamboo. Sugarcane fiber, called bagasse, is a discarded byproduct of sugarcane production. Our primary focus for this business unit as of filing of this report is the organization and administration of fundraisers and paper drives for schools, non-profits and other institutions.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. It is management's opinion however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation.

These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, which contains our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, together with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation, for the period ended June 30, 2016, as filed on or about November 1, 2016 and as amended on November 15, 2016 (the “Annual Report”). The interim results for the period ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year.

Principles of consolidation

The condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements include the accounts of our Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Sugarmade-CA and SWC. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Going concern

The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, in which it has not been successful, and/or obtaining additional financing from its shareholders or other sources, as may be required.

Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. Such assumption contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Management is endeavoring to increase revenue-generating operations. While priority is on generating cash from operations through the sale of the Company’s products, management is also seeking to raise additional working capital through various financing sources, including the sale of the Company’s equity and/or debt securities, which may not be available on commercially reasonable terms to our Company, or which may not be available at all. If such financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue our business as desired and our operating results will be adversely affected. In addition, any financing arrangement may have potentially adverse effects on us and/or our stockholders. Debt financing (if available and undertaken) will increase expenses, must be repaid regardless of operating results and may involve restrictions limiting our operating flexibility. If we issue equity securities to raise additional funds, the percentage ownership of our existing stockholders will be reduced and the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the current holders of our common stock.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires our 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Revenue recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) No. 605, Revenue Recognition. Revenue is recognized when an arrangement and a determinable fee occur, and when collection is considered to be probable and products are delivered or title has been transferred. This generally occurs upon shipment of the merchandise, which is when legal transfer of title occurs. In the event that final acceptance of our product by the customer is uncertain, revenue is deferred until all acceptance criteria have been met. We currently have a consignment arrangement with two of our customers. We record revenue on consignment goods when the consigned goods are sold by the consignee and all other above mentioned revenue recognition criteria have been satisfied. Cash deposits received in connection with the sales of our products prior to their being delivered or acceptance if applicable is recorded as deferred revenue.

Cash

Cash and cash equivalents consist of amounts held as bank deposits and highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.

From time to time, we may maintain bank balances in interest bearing accounts in excess of the $250,000 currently insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation for interest bearing accounts (there is currently no insurance limit for deposits in noninterest bearing accounts). We have not experienced any losses with respect to cash. Management believes our Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to its cash.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are carried at their estimated collectible amounts, net of any estimated allowances for doubtful accounts. We grant unsecured credit to our customer’s deemed credit worthy. Ongoing credit evaluations are performed and potential credit losses estimated by management are charged to operations on a regular basis. At the time, any particular account receivable is deemed uncollectible, the balance is charged to the allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company had accounts receivable net allowances of $132,177 as of March 31, 2017 and of $117,866 as of June 30, 2016.

Inventory

Inventory consists of finished goods paper and paper-based products such as paper cups and food containers ready for sale and is stated at the lower of cost or market. We value our inventory using the weighted average costing method. Our Company's policy is to include as a part of inventory any freight incurred to ship the product from our contract manufacturers to our warehouses. Outbound freights costs related to shipping costs to our customers are considered period costs and reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses. We regularly review inventory and consider forecasts of future demand, market conditions and product obsolescence.

If the estimated realizable value of our inventory is less than cost, we make provisions in order to reduce its carrying value to its estimated market value. On a consolidated basis, as of March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016, the balance for the inventory totaled $623,144 and $468,262, respectively. No amounts were recognized as an obsolescence reserve at March 31, 2017 and June 30, 2016.

Income taxes

We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their perspective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are recorded, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

As a result of the implementation of certain provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which clarifies the accounting and disclosure for uncertainty in tax position, as defined, ASC 740 seeks to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspect of the recognition and measurement related to accounting for income taxes. We adopted the provisions of ASC 740 as of October 2, 2008, and have analyzed filing positions in each of the federal and state jurisdictions where we are required to file income tax returns, as well as open tax years in these jurisdictions. We have identified the U.S. federal and California as our “major” tax jurisdictions and generally, we remain subject to Internal Revenue Service examination of our 2013 U.S. federal income tax returns. However, we have certain tax attribute carryforwards, which will remain subject to review and adjustment by the relevant tax authorities until the statute of limitations closes with respect to the year in which such attributes are utilized.

We believe that our income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and do not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to our financial position. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant to ASC 740. In addition, we did not record a cumulative effect adjustment related to the adoption of ASC 740. Our policy for recording interest and penalties associated with income-based tax audits is to record such items as a component of income taxes. We have no interest or penalties as of March 31, 2017.

Stock based compensation

Stock based compensation cost to employees is measured at the date of grant, based on the calculated fair value of the stock-based award, and will be recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the award). We estimate the fair value of employee stock options granted using the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing Model. Key assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options will include the exercise price of the award, the fair value of our common stock on the date of grant, the expected option term, the risk free interest rate at the date of grant, the expected volatility and the expected annual dividend yield on our common stock. We use our company’s own data among other information to estimate the expected price volatility and the expected forfeiture rate. Share-based compensation awards issued to non-employees for services rendered are recorded at either the fair value of the services rendered or the fair value of the share-based payment, whichever is more readily determinable.

Loss per share

We calculate basic earnings per share (“EPS”) by dividing our net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, without considering common stock equivalents. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income or net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and the weighted average number of dilutive common stock equivalents, such as options and warrants. Options and warrants are only included in the calculation of diluted EPS when their effect is dilutive; 9,929,119 and 13,751,366 diluted shares were excluded in calculating diluted loss per share for the nine and three months ended March 31, 2017 due to the fact that issuance of the shares is anti-dilutive as a result of the Company’s net loss.

Fair value of financial instruments

ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1 - observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2 - include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

Level 3 - unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

The Company used Level 2 inputs for its valuation methodology for the derivative liabilities in determining the fair value using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumption inputs:

Derivative instruments

The fair value of derivative instruments is recorded and shown separately under current liabilities. Changes in the fair value of derivatives liability are recorded in the consolidated statement of operations under non-operating income (expense).

Our Company evaluates all of its 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 in the consolidated statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a weighted average Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated 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. Refer to Note 6 for details.

Segment Reporting

FASB ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting”, requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the Company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company.

FASB ASC Topic 280 has no effect on the Company’s financial statements as substantially all of its operations are conducted in one industry segment – paper and paper-based products such as paper cups, cup lids, food containers, etc.

New accounting pronouncements not yet adopted

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with customers. The standard addresses the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations in the new revenue recognition standard. The ASU clarifies how an entity should identify the unit of accounting (i.e. the specified good or service) for the principal versus agent evaluation and how it should apply the control principle to certain types of arrangements. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-04, Recognition of Breakage for Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products. The standard specifies how prepaid stored- value product liabilities should be derecognized, thereby eliminating the current and potential future diversity in practice. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. The standard requires a lessee to recognize a liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset representing a right to use the underlying asset for the lease term on the balance sheet. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. The standard amends the current requirement for organizations to present deferred tax liabilities and assets as current and noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. Instead, organization will now be required to classify all deferred tax assets and liabilities as noncurrent. The ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company early adopted this standard during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, utilizing retrospective applications as permitted. As such, prior period amounts have been retrospectively adjusted to conform to the current presentation.

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-06, Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-period Adjustments. Under this standard, an acquirer in a business combination must recognize measurement-period adjustments during the period in which the acquirer determines the amounts, including the effect on earnings of any amounts the acquirer would have recorded in previous periods if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date, as opposed to retrospectively. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015 with early adoption permitted. The Company early adopted this standard during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. This standard, changes the measurement principle for inventory from the lower of cost or market to the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. This standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. We do not anticipate that adoption of this standard will have a material impact to our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. This standard requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. ASU 2015-03 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, with early application permitted. This standard will be applied retrospectively, and we do not expect the adoption of this standard to materially impact our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ASU 2014-09, which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). Early adoption is not permitted. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-04, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date. The amendment in this ASU defers the effective date of ASU No. 2014-09 for all entities for one year. Public business entities, certain not-for-profit entities, and certain employee benefit plans should apply the guidance in ASU 2014-09 to annual reporting periods beginning December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on its consolidated financial statements and has not yet determined the method by which it will adopt the standard.

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 are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

3. Concentration

Customers

For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2017, our Company earned net revenues of $903,950 and $2,759,595 respectively. The vast majority of these revenues for the three (3) month / three (3) and nine (9) month period ending March 31, 2017 were derived from three (3) customers of the Company. These three (3) customers accounted for 28% of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2017. One customer accounted for 13% for the nine (9) months ending March 31, 2017.

For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2016, our Company earned net revenues of $826,867 and $3,144,207, respectively. The vast majority of these revenues for the periods were derived from a large number of customers, with no customers accounted for over 10% of the Company’s total revenues in either period.

Suppliers

For the three (3) months ended March 31, 2017, we purchased products for sale by CarryOutSupplies from several contract manufacturers located in Asia and the U.S. A substantial portion of the Company’s inventory is purchased from three (3) suppliers. The three (3) suppliers accounted as follows: One supplier accounted for 57% and the remaining two (2) account for 36% the Company’s total inventory purchase for the three (3) months ended March 31, 2017 respectively.

For the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2017, we purchased products for sale by CarryOutSupplies from several contract manufactures located in Asia and the U.S. A substantial portion of the Company’s inventory is purchased from three (3) suppliers. The three (3) suppliers accounted as follows: One supplier accounted for 73% and the remaining two (2) account for 23% of the Company’s total inventory purchase for the nine (9) months ended March 31, 2017.

For the three and nine months end March 31, 2016, we purchased products for sale by CarryOutSupplies from several contract manufacturers located in Asia and U.S. A substantial portion of the Company’s inventory is purchased from one supplier that functions as an independent foreign procurement agent. Two suppliers accounted for 10% and 76% of the Company’s total inventory purchase for the three and nine months ending March 31, 2016 respectively. There were no purchases of tree free paper products during this period.

4. Litigation

From time to time and in the course of business, we may become involved in various legal proceedings seeking monetary damages and other relief. The amount of the ultimate liability, if any, from such claims cannot be determined. As of March 31, 2017, there were no legal claims pending or threatened against the Company; the opinion of our management would be likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, as of the date of this filing, we were involved in the following legal proceedings.

On February 4, 2014, the Company filed suit in Contra Costa County, California, alleging breach of fiduciary duty, conspiracy to commit breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, conspiracy to commit fraud, conversion, breach of contract, and interference with contractual relations against, Diversified Products Group Inc. (DPG), Stephen Pinto, Lewis Cohen and Heidi Estiva, who were former sales agents for the Company. Stephen Pinto is the Company’s former Chairman of the board of directors. The Company plans to actively pursue this case. During November of 2014, the Company received notice that a cross complaint had been filed against the Company. The complaint alleges the parties were induced to make a series of investments in the Company by the material misrepresentations and omissions made by the Company. The Company believes the allegations are without merit. The Company plans to vigorously defend against such claims. No changes have occurred as of the filing date of this report. As of March 31, 2017, this matter is still pending.

On May 24, 2014, the Labor Commissioner, State of California issued an Order, Decision or Award of the Labor Commissioner against the Company in the amount of $56,365. On October 28, 2014, the Company entered into a settlement agreement, which was effective October 28, 2014, to resolve a judgment against the Company via the issuance of 502,533 restricted shares and a $30,000 cash payment. As of March 31, 2017, this matter is pending.

On December 11, 2013, the Company was served with a complaint from two Convertible Note Holders and investors in the Company, Lovitt & Hannan, Inc. Salary Deferral Plan FBO J. Thomas Hannan, Attorney at Law 401K Plan and Trust, and Kevin M. Kearney. The Company’s former CEO, Scott Lantz, was also named in the suit. The complaint alleges Hannan was induced to make a series of investments in the Company by the material misrepresentations and omissions made by the Company. We believe the Hannan case is now in the middle of depositions and it appears a trial is scheduled, tentatively, in the second quarter of 2017. We believe the claims in that case are still primarily of two categories, the first being repayment of the promissory notes and a series of allegations about improper investment solicitations and other misrepresentations.

On February 21, 2017, the Company signed a settlement agreement with the plaintiffs. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company agreed to pay the plaintiffs’ $227,000 to settle all claims against the Company, which includes the payoff of the two notes outstanding within one (1) week. The parties had estimated the value of the notes at approximately $80,000. The Company has agreed to pay the plaintiff $97,000 within one hundred and twenty (120) days of the agreement with the remaining balance of $50,000 due within one hundred and eighty (180) days of the agreement. Upon receipt of all payments, plaintiffs shall surrender for cancellation 230,000 of the Company’s shares within ten (10) days. The parties agreed that all claims against the Company shall be satisfied through such payments and that the matter shall therefore be fully resolved. As of March 31, 2017, third-parties have purchased two (2) notes of approximately $80,000, hence reducing the Company’s exposure by $80,000.

As of the end of the reporting period, March 31, 2017, we were involved in several businesses including 1) the manufacturer and marketing of packaging for transport of products for the emerging legal cannabis industry, 2) manufacturer and supply of products to the quick service restaurant sub-sector of the restaurant industry 3) distribution of paper products derived from non-wood sources, and 4) as a marketer of a new seasoning food product.

The Company has also launched several packaging products serving the developing legal market for cannabis. CannaShroud is a new cannabis transport packaging system specifically designed to allow for discrete and protected transportation of cannabis. DabBox, a cannabis concentrate packaging product with a unique PTFE containment system. We are also in the process of developing active packaging for the cannabis industry and is in the advanced development stages for several other cannabis storage/transport and packaging products to serve this growing market sector.

Our main business operation, CarryOutSupplies, is a producer and wholesaler of custom printed and generic supplies servicing more than 3,000 quick service restaurants. Our products include double poly paper cups for cold beverage; disposable, clear, plastic cold cups, paper coffee cups, yogurt cups, ice cream cups, cup lids, cup sleeves, food containers, soup containers, plastic spoons and many other similar products for this market sector. CarryOutSupplies.com was founded in 2009 when the founders gained first-hand experience within the restaurant industry of the difficulty for restaurant owners to acquire custom printed supplies at a reasonable cost. Many quick service restaurants wish to acquire custom printed products, such as those embossed with logos, but the minimum order size for such customization had been cost prohibitive. With that in mind, carryoutsupplies.com was founded to provide products to this underserved section of the market. Since that time, the company has become a key supplier to many popular U.S. franchises, particularly in the frozen dessert segments. The Company estimates it holds approximately 40% market share of generic and printed products within the take out frozen yogurt and ice cream industries. We also hold a product supply and licensing agreement of FreeHand® ThumbTray™ for the western part of the United States.

The Company plans to introduce a new patent protected, culinary seasoning product via a nationwide advertising and social media campaign during the first half of 2017. During September of 2016, the Company completed negotiations for and signed a license agreement with HUY FONG FOODS, INC. (“HFFI”), the maker of Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company is granted license to use the licensed marks of HFFI on and for products the Company is currently in process of designing and testing. Based on this agreement and a separate license agreement signed during 2015 with Seasoning Stixs International, LLC, the Company plans to introduce a new culinary seasoning product named Sriracha Seasoning Stixs. Sriracha Seasoning Stixs are encapsulated Huy Fong Sriracha Sauce and other seasonings in the form of a stick, which are inserted into meat, fish and poultry prior to cooking. Sriracha Seasoning Stixs are a hard solid at room temperature, but as heat is applied the sticks begin to liquefy allowing the meat fibers to act like a sponge absorbing the seasonings and flavors that had previously been encapsulated in the stick.

We are also a distributor of paper made from 100% reclaimed sugarcane fiber, enhanced with bamboo. Sugarcane fiber, called bagasse, is a discarded byproduct of sugarcane production. Our primary focus for this business unit as of filing of this report is the organization and administration of fundraisers and paper drives for schools, non-profits and other institutions.

Employees and consultants

The company employees approximately 25 full-time and part-time workers, and consultants, most of whom work within the City of Industry headquarters location.

Overview and Financial Condition

Discussions with respect to our Company’s operations included herein refer to our previous operating subsidiary, Sugarmade, Inc., a California corporation (“Sugarmade-CA”). Our Company purchased Sugarmade-CA, which was in the business to import, sell and distribute sustainable and environmentally friendly non-tree-based paper products. On May 9, 2011, our Company formerly known as Simple Earth, Inc. acquired all of the common stock of Sugardmade-CA. As of the date of this filing, we have discontinued the operations of Sugarmade-CA. Information with respect to our Company’s nominal operations prior to the Sugarmade Acquisition is not included herein.

Results of Operations

The following table sets forth the results of our operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. Certain columns may not add due to rounding.

Revenues

For the three month period ending March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, revenues were $903,950 and $826,867 respectively. For the nine month period ending March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, revenues were $2,759,595 and $3,144,207 respectively. The decrease was primarily due to the frozen yogurt sector slow down along with continued consolidations of participants in this market sector.

Cost of goods sold

For the three month periods ending March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, cost of goods sold were $614,414 and $504,522 respectively. For the nine month period ending March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, cost of goods sold were $1,839,874 and $2,055,584, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to the frozen yogurt sector slow down along with continued consolidations of participant of this market sector, which caused revenue to fall and thus lower the cost of good sold correspondently.

Gross profit

For the three month period ending March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, gross profit was $289,536 and $322,345, respectively. For the nine month periods ending March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, cost of goods sold were $919,721 and $1,088,623, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease of revenue.

Operating expenses

For the three-month periods ending March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, operating expenses were $693,623 and $426,834, respectively. For the nine month period ending March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, operating expenses were $2,295,458 and $1,632,183, respectively. The increases were attributable to higher consulting cost as the company had expanded its markets and product lines.

Other non-operating income expense

The Company had total other non-operating expense of $2,294,032 and income of $72,661 for the three months ending March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, respectively. The Company had total other non-operating expense of $2,827,093 and $52,701 for the nine months ending March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016, respectively. The increases are primarily due to higher one time charges associated with stock compensation and consulting expense.

Net loss

Net loss totaled $2,698,119 for the three month period ending March 31, 2017, compared to a net loss of $31,828 for the three month period ending March 31, 2016. Net loss totaled $4,202,830 for the nine month period ending March 31, 2017, compared to a net loss totaling $596,261 for the nine month period ending March 31, 2016. The increase in loss was primarily as a result of changes in fair value of derivative instruments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have primarily financed our operations through the sale of unregistered equity and convertible notes payable. As of March 31, 2017, our Company had a cash balance of $76,885, current assets totaling $1,073,909 and total assets of $1,172,553. We had current and total liabilities totaling $7,127,433. Stockholders’ equity reflected a deficit of $5,954,881.

The following is a summary of cash provided by or used in each of the indicated types of activities during the six months ended March 31, 2017 and 2016:

Net cash used in operating activities was $1,303,903 for the nine months ending March 31, 2017, and $843,979 for the nine months ending March 31, 2017. The increase was attributable to the Company’s rapid expansion into new product lines and new markets.

Net cash used in investing activities for nine months ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2016 was $24,052 and $7,677, respectively.

Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $1,403,928 for the nine months ended March 31, 2017. Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $798,380 for the nine months ended March 31, 2017. The difference was due to increased sales of equities and convertible debenture during the nine months ended March 31, 2017 which was required due to the Company’s expanding its new product lines and new markets.

Our capital requirements going forward will consist of financing our operations until we are able to reach a level of revenues and gross margins adequate to equal or exceed our ongoing operating expenses. Other than the notes payable discussed above, borrowings from our bank and the production credit facility with our suppliers, we do not have any credit agreements or other sources of liquidity immediately available to us.

Given estimates of our Company’s future operating results and our credit arrangements with our suppliers, we are currently forecasting that we will need to secure additional financing to obtain adequate financial resources to reach profitability. As of the date of this report, we estimate that the cash necessary to implement our current business plan for the next twelve (12) months is approximately $2,000,000.

Based on our need to raise additional funds to implement our business plans for the next twelve months, we have included a discussion concerning the presentation of our financial statements on a going concern basis in the notes to our financial statements and our independent public accountants have included a similar discussion in their opinion on our financial statements through March 31, 2017. We will be required in the near future to issue debt or sell our Company’s equity securities in order to raise additional cash, although there are no firm arrangements in place for any such financing at this time. We cannot provide any assurances as to whether we will be able to secure the necessary financing, or the terms of any such financing transaction if one were to occur. The failure to secure such financing could severely curtail our plans for future growth or in more severe scenarios, the continued operations of our Company.

Capital Expenditures

Our current plans do not call for our Company to expend significant amounts for capital expenditures for the foreseeable future beyond relatively insignificant expenditures for office furniture and information technology related equipment as we add employees to our Company. We are however continually evaluating the production processes of our third (3rd) party contract manufacturers to determine if there are investments we could make in their processes to achieve manufacturing improvements and significant cost savings. Any such desired investments would require additional cash above our current forecast requirements.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Intentionally omitted pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K and out status as a smaller reporting company.

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives.

As required by the Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of March 31, 2017, our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective due to the Company is relatively inexperienced with certain complexities within U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting.

We have taken, and are continuing to take, certain actions to remediate the material weakness related to our lack of U.S. GAAP experience. We plan to hire additional credentialed professional staff and consulting professionals with greater knowledge and experience of U.S. GAAP and related regulatory requirements to oversee our financial reporting process in order to ensure our compliance with U.S. GAAP and other relevant securities laws. In addition, we plan to provide additional training to our accounting personnel on U.S. GAAP, and other regulatory requirements regarding the preparation of financial statements.

Notwithstanding the above identified material weakness, the Company’s management believes that its condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented and that this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There have not been any changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II: Other Information

ITEM 1 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time and in the course of business, we may become involved in various legal proceedings seeking monetary damages and other relief. The amount of the ultimate liability, if any, from such claims cannot be determined. As of March 31, 2017, there were no legal claims pending or threatened against the Company; the opinion of our management would be likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, as of the date of this filing, we were involved in the following legal proceedings:

On [date], the Company filed suit in Contra Costa County, California, alleging breach of fiduciary duty, conspiracy to commit breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, conspiracy to commit fraud, conversion, breach of contract, and interference with contractual relations against, Diversified Products Group Inc. (DPG), Stephen Pinto, Lewis Cohen and Heidi Estiva, who were former sales agents for the Company. Stephen Pinto is the Company’s former Chairman of the board of directors. The Company plans to actively pursue this case. During November of 2014, the Company received notice that a cross complaint had been filed against the Company. The complaint alleges the parties were induced to make a series of investments in the Company by the material misrepresentations and omissions made by the Company. The Company believes the allegations are without merit. The Company plans to vigorously defend against such claims. No changes have occurred as of the filing date of this report. As of March 31, 2017, this matter is still pending.

On May 24, 2014, the Labor Commissioner, State of California issued an Order, Decision or Award of the Labor Commissioner against the Company in the amount of $56,365. On October 28, 2014, the Company entered into a settlement agreement, which was effective October 28, 2014, to resolve a judgment against the Company via the issuance of 502,533 restricted shares and a $30,000 cash payment. As of March 31, 2017, this matter is pending.

On December 11, 2013, the Company was served with a complaint from two Convertible Note Holders and investors in the Company, Lovitt & Hannan, Inc. Salary Deferral Plan FBO J. Thomas Hannan, Attorney at Law 401K Plan and Trust, and Kevin M. Kearney. The Company’s former CEO, Scott Lantz, was also named in the suit. The complaint alleges Hannan was induced to make a series of investments in the Company by the material misrepresentations and omissions made by the Company. We believe the Hannan case is now in the middle of depositions and it appears a trial is scheduled, tentatively, in the second quarter of 2017. We believe the claims in that case are still primarily of two categories, the first being repayment of the promissory notes and a series of allegations about improper investment solicitations and other misrepresentations.

On February 21, 2017, the company signed a settlement agreement with the plaintiffs. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company agrees to pay the plaintiffs’ $227,000 to settle all claims against the Company, which will include the payoff of the two notes outstanding within one (1) week. The parties had estimated the value of the notes at approximately $80,000. The Company has agreed to pay the plaintiff $97,000 within one hundred and twenty (120) days of the agreement with the remaining balance of $50,000 due within one hundred and eighty (180) days of the agreement. Upon receipt of all payments, plaintiffs shall cancel 230,000 of the company’s shares within ten (10) days. The parties agreed that all claims against the company shall be satisfied through such payments and that the matter shall therefore be fully resolved. As of March 31, 2017, third-parties have purchased two (2) notes of approximately $80,000, hence reducing the Company’s exposure by $80,000.

There can be no assurances the ultimate liability relative to these law suits will not exceed what is outlined above.

ITEM 1A – RISK FACTORS

Investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in this herein before making an investment decision. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could suffer. In that case, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. You should also read the section entitled "Special Notes Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" below for a discussion of what types of statements are forward-looking statements as well as the significance of such statements in the context of this report.

The Company, as of the end of the 2016 fiscal year (June) and as of the quarter ended March 31, 2017, was at a stage where it requires external capital to continue with its business. It must obtain additional significant capital in the future to continue its operations. There can be no certainty that the Company can obtain these funds. As disclosed in our Annual Report, and as disclosed in Note 2 to our Financial Statements above, these conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

There were no sales of unregistered securities during the period.

ITEM 3 – DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

Not applicable.

ITEM 4 – MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES
