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. These factors, risks and uncertainties can be found in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, as the same may be updated from time to time, including in Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Although we believe the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, it is not possible to foresee or identify all factors that could have a material effect on the future financial performance of the Company. The forward-looking statements in this report are made on the basis of management’s assumptions and analyses, as of the time the statements are made, in light of their experience and perception of historical conditions, expected future developments and other factors believed to be appropriate under the circumstances. Except as otherwise required by the federal securities laws, we disclaim any obligation or undertaking to publicly release any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statement contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the information incorporated by reference in this report to reflect any change in our expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any statement is based.

Sugarmade, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2022

 

1. Nature of Business

 

Sugarmade, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “we”, “us” or the “Company”) was originally incorporated on June 5, 1986 in California as Lab, Inc., and later that month, on June 24, 1986 changed its name to Software Professionals, Inc. On May 21, 1996, the Company changed its name to Enlighten Software Solutions, Inc. On June 20, 2007, Enlighten Software Solutions, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware for the purpose of merging with Enlighten Softwear Solutions, Inc. a California corporation so as to effect a redomicile to Delaware. On January 24, 2008, the Company changed its name to Diversified Opportunities, Inc. On May 9, 2011 we closed on a Share Exchange Agreement with Sugarmade, Inc., a California corporation founded in 2010, and on June 24, 2011 changed our name to Sugarmade, Inc.

 

On October 24, 2014 we acquired SWC Group, Inc., a California corporation doing business as, CarryOutSupplies.com (“Carry Out Supplies”).

 

Our Company operates much of its business activities through our subsidiaries, SWC Group, Inc., a California corporation (“SWC’’), NUG Avenue, Inc., a California corporation and 70% owned subsidiary of the Company (“NUG Avenue”), and Lemon Glow Company, Inc., a California corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Lemon Glow”).

 

Shares of our common stock are quoted on the OTC Pink tier of OTC Markets. Our trading symbol is “SGMD”. Our corporate website is www.sugarmade.com.

 

As of the date of this filing, we are involved in several business sectors and business ventures:

 

Paper and paper-based products: The supply of consumable products to the quick-service restaurant sub-sector of the restaurant industry, and as an importer and distributor of non-medical personal protection equipment to business and consumers, via our Carry Out Supplies subsidiary. Carry Out Supplies is a producer and wholesaler of custom printed and generic supplies, servicing more than 2,000 quick-service restaurants. The primary products are plastic cold cups, paper coffee cups, yogurt cups, ice cream cups, cup lids, cup sleeves, edible packaging, food containers, soup containers, plastic spoons, and similar products for this market sector. This subsidiary, which was formed in 2009.

 

NUG Avenue investment into licensed cannabis delivery in Los Angeles area markets. On February 8, 2021, we became a majority owner of NUG Avenue, which operates a licensed and regulated cannabis delivery service out of Lynwood, California, serving the greater Los Angeles Metropolitan area (the “Lynwood Operations”). The Company currently owns 70% of NUG Avenue’s Lynwood Operations and holds first rights of refusal on NUG Avenue’s business expansion relative to the cannabis marketplace. By way of our capital injection made into NUG Avenue and via our 70% ownership position, we consolidate and recognize 100% of the revenues and 70% of profits or loss generated by NUG Avenue for its Lynwood Operations.

 

We believe our investment in NUG Avenue will allow us to expand our presence into the licensed and regulated cannabis marketplace. We believe the California cannabis market is still one of the largest Market currently. According to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration, the total cannabis tax revenue from fourth-quarter of calendar year 2021 return is $308.56 million. This includes California’s cannabis excise tax, which generated $157.37 million; the cultivation tax, which generated $38.98 million; and $112.21 million in sales tax revenue from cannabis businesses. Fourth-quarter revenue shows a potential decrease of 7.5 percent from adjusted revenue figures for the third quarter. However, the total tax revenue increased about 1% compared to fourth-quarter of calendar year 2020. Source: https://www.cdtfa.ca.gov/dataportal/dataset.htm?url=CannabisTaxRevenues

 

Cannabis products delivery service and sales: In February 2020, the Company entered into an agreement with Indigo Dye Group Corp. (“Indigo”) to acquire a 40% stake in Budcars licensed cannabis delivery service (“Budcars”), which operates a licensed cannabis delivery service in the Sacramento, California area. Under the terms of the agreement with Indigo, Sugarmade acquired an option to purchase an additional 30% interest in Budcars. Upon exercise of this option, the Company would acquire a controlling interest in Indigo. As of March 31, 2022, the option has not yet been exercised and the Company’s stake in Budcars remained at 40%. The Company plans to open new locations via purchasing equity in other franchise brands to cover delivery for the entire state of California. Therefore, the Company is not likely at this time to exercise its option to acquire the additional 30% interest in Indigo. In addition, the Company is no longer involved in day-to-day operations of Indigo and going forward, the Company intends to pursue cannabis delivery independent of Indigo. As of October 1, 2020, the Company ceased to have control over the day-to-day business of Indigo and it was deconsolidated and recorded as an investment in nonconsolidated affiliate at its $505,449 estimated fair value and changed to equity method of accounting. Pursuant to the terms of the Indigo agreement, if the Company determines, in its discretion not to continue to make monthly payments, its 40% ownership interest in Indigo will be decreased according to the payment then made. As of December 31, 2020, the Company made $59,370 additional payments, and held approximately 32% of the ownership of Indigo. As of March 31, 2022, the Company recorded equity method investment in affiliates at $372,330, net with $69,077 loss from equity method investment.

 

Selected cannabis and hemp projects: On May 12, 2021, the Company entered into a Merger Agreement by and between Carnaby Spot Bay Corp, a California corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), Lemon Glow Company and Ryan Santiago as shareholder representative, pursuant to which Merger Sub would merge with and into Lemon Glow, with Lemon Glow being the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). Upon the closing of the merger, Lemon Glow was merged into the Company. The purpose of the transactions was to establish a licensed and permitted entity which Sugarmade would cultivate, manufacture, and distribute cannabis to the California markets. At the time of the transactions, none of Lemon Glow, Merger Sub, or Sugarmade was permitted and licensed for such activities.

 

On October 28, 2021, Lemon Glow obtained a conditional Use Permit (UP) number from the Community Development Department of the County of Lake, California, which the Company believes is an important step towards the conditional UP for commercial cannabis cultivation at its property. The issuance of the conditional UP number by the County of Lake allows the Company to proceed with the state cannabis cultivation license application, and potentially obtain certain applicable permits, such as from the Department of Cannabis Control, Department of Food and Agriculture, Department of Pesticide Regulation, Department of Fish and Wildlife, The State Water Resources Control Board, Board of Forestry and Fire Protection, Central Valley or North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board, Department of Public Health, and Department of Consumer Affairs, as may be required. The Company believes that obtaining the conditional UP number by the County of Lake could be the first step toward full approval to cultivate cannabis on up to 32 acres out of the total 640 acres of the property.

 

As of the date of this filing, Sugarmade is working diligently on satisfying the conditions required by the County of Lake to allow the Company to cultivate cannabis.  It is the Company’s intention to begin such activities at the earliest time possible, assuming permits are ultimately issued. Upon issuance, the company will determines the amount of acreages to grow initially based on market demand and pre-orders. However, no such license or permits have yet been issued, and applications are still pending. There can be no assurance that any such license or permits will be issued in the near future or at all.

 

For the 2022 cannabis cultivation season, we are embarking on a new and bold strategy to enter into contract cultivation arrangements with local Lake County, California, cultivators that have decided not to engage in their own cultivation efforts for the 2022 season. These operators have already made significant investments in infrastructure and have highly specialized personnel available that we can utilize on a contract basis for our production of cannabis.

 

By contracting with the owners of these already available resources, Sugarmade will gain immediate access to the marketplace based on an advantageous cost model that will place Sugarmade on par, or in some cases, at a superior cost position compared to many of the larger cannabis cultivation and distribution companies in the industry.

 

We are in negotiations with several local permitted and licensed operators that are agreeable to a partnership arrangement with Sugarmade to manage operations for cannabis cultivation. We are also in active negotiations on the distribution side of the business that will allow Sugarmade to bring this cultivated cannabis to the marketplace.

 

Invoking this dynamic short-term strategy, while continuing to develop our longer-term strategy to fully develop the large Lemon Glow property for cultivation, will allow Sugarmade to significantly advance the timeframe for gaining market share in this industry - and we believe we will be able to do so based on a cost model that will allow us to produce strong margins this cultivation season.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

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 (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) 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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2021, 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 fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. The interim results for the period ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year.

 

Principles of consolidation

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, SWC, Lemon Glow, Sugarrush, and its majority owned subsidiary, NUG Avenue, as well as Indigo, an equity investee. 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 unaudited 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 unaudited 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 endeavors to increase revenue-generating operations. While the Company’s priority is on generating cash from operations, management also seeks 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.

 

Business combinations

 

The Company applies the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations, in accounting for its acquisitions. It requires the Company to recognize separately from goodwill the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed, at the acquisition date fair values. Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the acquisition date fair values of the net assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. The Company used third party valuation company to determine the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 ASC No. 606, Revenue Recognition. Sugarmade applied a five-step approach in determining the amount and timing of revenue to be recognized: (1) identifying the contract with a customer, (2) identifying the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (5) recognizing revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied.

 

Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is recognized at the time control of the products transfers to the customer.

 

Property, plant and equipment

 

Property and equipment is stated at the historical cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation on property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets for both financial and income tax reporting purposes as follows:

 

Machinery and equipment   3-5 years 
Furniture and equipment   1-15 years 
Vehicles   2-5 years 
Leasehold improvements   5-30 years 
Building   31.5 years 
Production molding   5 years 

 

Expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized while repairs and maintenance costs are normally charged to the statement of operations in the year in which they are incurred. In situations where it can be clearly demonstrated that the expenditure has resulted in an increase in the future economic benefits expected to be obtained from the use of the asset, the expenditure is capitalized as an additional cost of the asset.

 

Upon sale or disposal of an asset, the historical cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization of such asset were removed from their respective accounts and any gain or loss is recorded in the statements of income.

 

The Company reviews the carrying value of property, plant, and equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and other economic factors. Based on this assessment, no impairment expenses for property, plant, and equipment was recorded in operating expenses during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets, which include property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.

 

Recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the assets. Fair value is generally determined using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable. Based on its review, there was $0 and $43,800 impairment loss of its long-lived assets as of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Leases

 

In February 2016, the FASB established Topic 842, Leases, by issuing Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize the rights and obligations created by leases on the balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements, ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, and ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842. The new standard establishes a right-of-use model (ROU) that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the statement of operations.

 

The new standard became effective April 1, 2019. A modified retrospective transition approach is required, applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. An entity may choose to use either (1) its effective date or (2) the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements as its date of initial application. If an entity chooses the second option, the transition requirements for existing leases also apply to leases entered into between the date of initial application and the effective date. The entity must also recast its comparative period financial statements and provide the disclosures required by the new standard for the comparative periods. The Company adopted the new standard on July 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition approach as of the effective date of the initial application. The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the “package of practical expedients”, which permits entities not to reassess under the new lease standard prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. The Company does not expect to elect the use-of-hindsight or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements.

 

The most significant effects of the adoption of the new standard relate to the recognition of new ROU assets and lease labilities on our balance sheet for office operating leases and providing significant new disclosures about our leasing activities.

 

The new standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. The Company has also elected the short-term leases recognition exemption for all leases that qualify. This means that the Company will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities, and this includes not recognizing ROU assets and lease liabilities, for existing short-term leases of those assets in transition. The Company also currently expects to elect the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for its leases. All existing leases are reported under this rule.

 

Under ASC 840, leases were classified as either capital or operating, and the classification significantly impacted the effect the contract had on the company’s financial statements. Capital lease classification resulted in a liability that was recorded on a company’s balance sheet, whereas operating leases did not impact the balance sheet.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired in business combinations accounted for under the acquisition method. Intangible assets represent purchased intangible assets including developed technology and in-process research and development, technologies acquired or licensed from other companies, customer relationships, non-compete covenants, backlog, and trademarks and tradenames. Purchased finite-lived intangible assets are capitalized and amortized over their estimated useful lives. Technologies acquired or licensed from other companies, customer relationships, non-compete covenants, backlog, and trademarks and tradenames are capitalized and amortized over the lesser of the terms of the agreement, or estimated useful life. We capitalized the cannabis cultivation license acquired as part of a business combination.

 

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 Binomial 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. Stock-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 stock-based payment, whichever is more readily determinable.

 

Loss per share

 

We calculate basic loss per share by dividing our net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, without considering common stock equivalents. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing 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 earning per share when their effect is dilutive.

 

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 3 inputs for its valuation methodology for the derivative liabilities in determining the fair value using the Binomial option-pricing model for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, the Company generally considers all expected future events other than enactments of changes in the tax law. For deferred tax assets, management evaluates the probability of realizing the future benefits of such assets. The Company establishes valuation allowances for its deferred tax assets when evidence suggests it is unlikely that the assets will be fully realized.

 

The Company recognizes the tax effects of an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not to be sustained based solely on its technical merits as of the reporting date and then only in an amount more likely than not to be sustained upon review by the tax authorities. Income tax positions that previously failed to meet the more likely than not threshold are recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more likely than not threshold are derecognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met. The Company classifies potential accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) as income tax expense.

 

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 Binomial 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.

 

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.

 

The Company’s financial statements reflect that substantially all of its operations are conducted in two industry segments – (1) paper and paper-based products such as paper cups, cup lids, food containers, etc., which accounts for approximately 54% of the Company’s revenues as of March 31, 2022; and (2) cannabis products delivery service and sales, which accounted for approximately 46% of the Company’s total revenues as of March 31, 2022.

 

A reconciliation of the Company’s segment operating income and cost of goods sold to the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 is as follows:

 

     March 31, 2022     March 31, 2021

New accounting pronouncements

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. The pronouncement simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes”. The pronouncement also improves consistent application of and simplifies GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 was effective for us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, with early adoption permitted. The adoption had no material impact on the consolidated financial statements in the year ended June 30, 2021 and period ended March 31, 2022.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, Investments - Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivative and Hedging (Topic 815), which clarifies the interaction of rules for equity securities, the equity method of accounting, and forward contracts and purchase options on certain types of securities. The guidance clarifies how to account for the transition into and out of the equity method of accounting when considering observable transactions under the measurement alternative. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim reporting periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this ASU on the consolidated financial statements in the year ended June 30, 2021. The adoption had no material impact on the consolidated financial statements in the year ended June 30, 2021 and period ended March 31, 2022.

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815 – 40)(“ASU 2020-06”). ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. The ASU is part of the FASB’s simplification initiative, which aims to reduce unnecessary complexity in GAAP. The ASU’s amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-06 on its financial statements.

 

On March 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-03, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Accounting Alternative for Evaluating Triggering Events(“ASU 2021-03”). The amendments in ASU 2021-03 provide private companies and not-for-profit entities with an accounting alternative to perform the goodwill impairment triggering event evaluation as required in ASC 350-20, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Goodwill, as of the end of the reporting period, whether the reporting period is an interim or annual period. An entity that elects this alternative is not required to monitor for goodwill impairment triggering events during the reporting period but, instead, should evaluate the facts and circumstances as of the end of each reporting period to determine whether a triggering event exists and, if so, whether it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired. The amendments in this ASU are effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued as of March 30, 2021. The Company adopted this ASU on the consolidated financial statements in the year ended June 30, 2021. The adoption had no material impact on the consolidated financial statements in the year ended June 30, 2021 and period ended March 31, 2022.

 

On April 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04, “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt— Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging— Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options” (“ASU 2021-04”) to clarify the accounting by issuers for modifications or exchanges of equity-classified warrants. The new ASU is effective for all entities in fiscal years starting after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2021-04 on its financial statements.

 

On July 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-05, “Leases (Topic 842): Lessors—Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments, which upon adoption requires a lessor to classify a lease with variable lease payments (that do not depend on a rate or index) as an operating lease on commencement date if classifying the lease as a sales-type or direct financing lease would result in a selling loss. The amendments in this ASU are effective for all entities in fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2021. The adoption had no material impact on the consolidated financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2022.

 

On July 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-07, “Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Stock Compensation” (“ASU 2021-07”) to address the concerns from stakeholders about the cost and complexity of determining the fair value of equity-classified share-based awards for private companies. It specifically permits private companies to use 409A valuations prepared under U.S. Treasury regulations to estimate the fair value of certain awards under ASC 718. The Update is effective for private companies in fiscal years starting after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2021-07 on its financial statements.

 

On August 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2021-08”) to require an acquirer to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with revenue recognition guidance as if the acquirer had originated the contract. That is, such acquired contracts will not be measured at fair value. ASU 2021-08 is effective for privately held companies with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2021-08 on its financial statements.

3. Concentration

 

Customers

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, our Company earned net revenues of $1,285,300 and $404,843 respectively. The vast majority of these revenues for the periods ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021 were derived from a large number of customers.

 

For the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, our Company earned net revenues of $3,689,906 and $2,851,822 respectively. The vast majority of these revenues for the periods ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021 were derived from a large number of customers.

 

Suppliers

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we purchased products for sale by SWC, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary from several contract manufacturers located in Asia and the U.S. A substantial portion of the Company’s inventory was purchased from two suppliers which accounted over 10% of the total purchases. The two suppliers accounted for 68.8% and 23.75%, respectively, of the Company’s total inventory purchase for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

 

For the nine months ended March 31, 2022, we purchased products for sale by SWC, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary from several contract manufacturers located in Asia and the U.S. A substantial portion of the Company’s inventory was purchased from two suppliers which accounted over 10% of the total purchases. The two suppliers accounted for 74.03% and 19.89%, respectively, of the Company’s total inventory purchase for the nine months ended March 31, 2022.

4. Noncontrolling Interest and Deconsolidation of VIE

 

Starting in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, the Company had a variable interest entity (Indigo), for accounting purposes. The Company owned approximately 29% of Indigo’s outstanding equity and as of September 30, 2020, involved its day-to-day operations, which gave the Company the power to direct the activities of Indigo that most significantly impact its economic performance. Accordingly, the Company recognized the carrying value of the non-controlling interest as a component of total stockholders’ equity, and the consolidated financial statements included the financial position and results of operations of Indigo as of and for the periods ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020.

 

Starting on October 1, 2020, the Company planned to open new locations via purchasing equity in other brand/franchises to cover delivery for the entire California. Therefore, the Company is not likely at this time to exercise its option to acquire the additional 30% interest in Indigo. In addition, the Company is no longer involved in day-to-day operations of Indigo and going forward, the Company intends to pursue cannabis delivery independent from Indigo. As of October 1, 2020, the Company ceased to have control over the day-to-day business of Indigo and it was deconsolidated and recorded as an investment in nonconsolidated affiliate at its $505,449 estimated fair value and changed to equity method of accounting. Pursuant to the terms of the Indigo agreement, if the Company determines, in its discretion not to continue to make monthly payments, its 40% ownership interest in Indigo will be decreased according to the payment then made. As of December 31, 2020, the Company made $59,370 in additional payments, and holds approximately 32% of the ownership of Indigo. (See Note 6)

 

The net asset value of the Company’s variable interest in Indigo was approximately $326,812 as of October 1, 2020, the date of deconsolidation. The value of the Company’s variable interest on the date of deconsolidation was based on management’s estimate of the fair value of Indigo at that time. The Company concluded that the market approach was the most appropriate method to determine the fair value of the entity on the date of deconsolidation, given that Indigo raised equity funding from third-party investors around the same period (i.e., level 2 inputs). The Company recognized a gain on deconsolidation of approximately $313,928 with no related tax impact, which is included in other income, net on the consolidated statement of operations. As the Company is not obligated to fund future losses of Indigo, the carrying amount is the Company’s maximum risk of loss and accounted as equity method investment in affiliates in our consolidated financial statements as of and for the period ended September 30, 2021. As of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, the Company recorded equity method investment in affiliates at $372,330 and $441,407, net with $69,077 and $123,412 loss from equity method investment, respectively in each case.

5. 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, 2022, there were no legal claims pending or threatened against the Company that, in 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 December 11, 2013, the Company was served with a complaint from two convertible note holders and investors in the Company. On February 21, 2017, the Company signed a settlement agreement with the plaintiffs in the matter of Hannan vs. Sugarmade. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company agreed to pay the plaintiffs $227,000 to settle all claims against the Company, which included the payoff of two notes outstanding. The parties had estimated the value of the notes at approximately $80,000. As of June 30, 2020, third parties had purchased the two notes. As of March 31, 2022, there remains a balance, plus accrued interest on the $227,000 and on the $80,000 due under the notes.

 

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

 

6. 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.

 

As of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, the Company held cash in the amount of $148,236 and $1,396,944, respectively, including cash in hands in the amount of $74,481 and $2,026, respectively.

7. 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 customers 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 of allowance, of $652,526 and $435,598 as of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively; and allowance for doubtful accounts of $321,560 and $259,761 as of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively.

 

8. Loans Receivable

 

Loan receivables amounted $196,000 ($196,000 current and $0 noncurrent) and $196,000 ($0 current and $196,000 noncurrent) as of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively. Loan receivables primarily consist of a loan to Hempistry Inc. for business use due on July 31, 2022.

 

9. 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, 2022 and June 30, 2021, the balance for the inventory totaled $527,212 and $441,582, respectively. $0 was reserved for obsolescent inventory for the period ended March 31, 2022, and $0 were reserved for obsolescent inventory for the year ended June 30, 2021.

On April 1, 2017, the Company entered into a distribution and intellectual property assignment agreement with Wagner Bartosch, Inc. (“Wagner”) for use of their Divider’™ used in frozen desserts and other related uses. In lieu of cash payment under the agreement, the Company was obliged to issue common shares of the Company valued at $75,000 for acquiring the use right of the distribution and intellectual property. The Company amortized this use right as an intangible asset over 10 years, and recorded $2,500 and $1,400 amortization expense for the period ended March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively.

 

On May 17, 2021, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and between Merger Sub, Lemon Glow and Mr. Ryan Santiago as shareholder representative, pursuant to which, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub would merge with and into Lemon Glow, with Lemon Glow being the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). The Company valued the cannabis cultivation license from Lemon Glow at $10,648,378, with a remaining economic life of 9 years as of June 30, 2021. The intangible assets started to amortize at November 1, 2021 upon receipt of the conditional use permit. The Company recorded $492,454 and $0 amortization expense for the periods ended March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively.

 

12. Goodwill

 

Goodwill arises from the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations and represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets and other identifiable intangible assets acquired. The fair values of net tangible assets and intangible assets acquired are based upon preliminary valuations and the Company’s estimates and assumptions are subject to change within the measurement period. There was $757,648 and $757,648 of goodwill recorded as of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively.

13. Property, Plant and Equipment, net

 

As of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, property, plant and equipment consisted of the following:

 

Office and equipment  $820,149   $820,149 
Fixed Assets  March 31, 2022   June 30, 2021 
Office and equipment  $820,149   $820,149

Leasehold Improvement   478,904    365,620 
Total   4,472,706    3,274,224 
Less: accumulated depreciation   (682,243)   (524,884)
Property, Plant and Equipment, net  $3,790,462   $2,749,340 

 

For the periods ended March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, depreciation expenses amounted to $157,359 and $105,982, respectively.

 

The Company reviews the carrying value of property and equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and other economic factors. Based on this assessment, no impairment expenses for property, plant, and equipment was recorded in operating expenses during the periods ended March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021.

14. Equity Method Investments in Affiliates

 

Investment in Indigo Dye Inc.

 

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, the Company accounted for its investment in Indigo as a variable interest entity. The Company owned approximately 29% of Indigo’s outstanding equity and as of December 31, 2020, and was involved its day-to-day operations, which gave the Company the power to direct the activities of Indigo that most significantly impact its economic performance. Accordingly, the Company recognized the carrying value of the non-controlling interest as a component of total stockholders’ equity, and the consolidated financial statements included the financial position and results of operations of Indigo as of and for the periods ended March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021.

 

During the quarter ended December 31, 2020, the Company began plans to open new locations via purchasing equity in other brand/franchises to cover delivery for the entire California. Therefore, the Company is not likely at this time to exercise its option to acquire the additional 30% interest in Indigo. In addition, the Company is no longer involved in day-to-day operations of Indigo and going forward, the Company intends to pursue cannabis delivery independent from Indigo. As of October 1, 2020, the Company ceased to have control over the day-to-day business of Indigo and it was deconsolidated and recorded as an investment in nonconsolidated affiliate at its $564,819 estimated fair value and changed to equity method of accounting. Pursuant to the terms of the Indigo agreement, if the Company determines, in its discretion not to continue to make monthly payments, its 40% ownership interest in Indigo will be decreased according to the payment then made. As of March 31, 2022, the Company did not receive any distributions or dividends from Indigo. In addition, the Company impaired $69,077 of the investment as of March 31, 2022 due to lack of providing financial information from Indigo. As of March 31, 2022, the Company still held approximately 32% of the ownership of Indigo.

 

As of March 31, 2022, the Company recorded equity method investment in affiliates at $372,330, net with $69,077 loss from equity method investment.

 

15. Unrealized Gain on Securities

The actual amount of proceeds the Company will receive pursuant to each Drawdown Notice (the “Investment Amount”) is to be determined by multiplying the number of Drawdown Notice Shares by 93% of the lowest traded price of the common stock during the five business days prior to the Closing Date. Closing Date shall mean the date that is eight business days after the Clearing Date.

Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Company shall not issue any Drawdown Notice Shares if the issuance of such shares would exceed the aggregate number of shares of common stock which the Company may issue without breaching the Company’s obligations under the rules and regulations of the principal market upon which the common stock trades, or if the issuance would violate such principal market’s shareholder approval requirements.

 

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and covenants by, among, and for the benefit of the parties. Unless earlier terminated, the Purchase Agreement will terminate automatically on the earlier to occur of: (i) the end of the 36-month Term; (ii) the date that the Company sells and Dutchess purchases the Total Commitment amount; (iii) the date that the Registration Statement is no longer effective; or (iv) the occurrence of certain specified insolvency or bankruptcy-related events. The Company may terminate the Purchase Agreement at any time by written notice to Dutchess in the event of a material breach of the agreement by Dutchess.

 

The Purchase Agreement also provides for mutual cross-indemnification of the parties and their affiliates in the event that either party incurs losses, liabilities, obligations, claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses resulting from a breach of representations, warranties, covenants, or agreements under the Purchase Agreement; an untrue or misleading statement or misleading omission in the Registration Statement or any preliminary or final prospectus pursuant thereto; or a violation or alleged violation of federal or state securities laws and regulations.

Lemon Glow may not convert any amount due under the Convertible Note if, after giving effect to such conversion, Lemon Glow would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of Cannabis Global’s outstanding common stock; provided, however, that Lemon Glow may waive this limitation on 61 days advanced notice.

Sugarmade, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2022

 

28. Subsequent events (Continued)

 

Events of default include, but are not limited to, failure to pay principal or interest; failure of Cannabis Global common stock to remain listed for trading on OTC Markets or a principal U.S. national securities exchange for a period of five trading days; notice to Lemon Glow that Cannabis Global cannot or will refuse to convert principal or interest into common stock; failure by Cannabis Global to convert principal or interest into common stock not remedied for three days; any default on other indebtedness in excess of $100,000; any default causing acceleration under another Cannabis Global debt obligation; the occurrence of certain bankruptcy and insolvency events; and the failure of Cannabis Global to instruct the transfer agent to remove restrictive legends when converted common stock becomes eligible for resale under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

Upon an event of default, Lemon Glow may declare the entire unpaid principal and interest due to be payable immediately; convert the unpaid principal and interest due at the Conversion Price; or exercise such other rights as Lemon Glow may have under the Convertible Note, the Agreement, other transaction documents or applicable law. Lemon Glow may transfer, sell, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise grant a security interest in the Convertible Note, subject to certain specified restrictions. The choice of law provision provides for Nevada law to govern the Convertible Note.

 

Ownership of harvested cannabis will transfer to Cannabis Global upon receipt of the cannabis or upon Lemon Glow notifying Cannabis Global that it has packaged the Target Yield (the “Completion Notice”). Upon receipt of the Completion Notice, Cannabis Global has 30 days to pick up the Target Yield. If Cannabis Global has not taken possession of the cannabis within 30 days, Cannabis Global will become responsible for the ongoing cost of storage, including utilities and labor. Cannabis Global is obligated to use its best efforts to take possession of the entire Harvest within 180 days. After the 180-day period, any remaining amounts of the Harvest not picked up by Cannabis Global are considered abandoned by Cannabis Global and will become Lemon Glow’s property.

 

Under the terms of the Agreement, Lemon Glow warrants it shall have good title, right and authority to sell all of the cannabis, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and restrictions of any kind. The parties agree to maintain in confidence all matters and activities relating to or undertaken pursuant to the Agreement. The Agreement contains a cross-indemnification and hold harmless provision, which includes attorney fees. The Agreement is non-assignable without mutual consent. Upon the expiration of a 15-day notice period commencing upon receipt of a notice of default which remains uncured, the non-defaulting party may immediately terminate the Agreement, seek equitable relief and damages, or cure such default at the defaulting party’s expense. The Agreement also includes an appendix forecasting future cannabis harvests. The forecasts are not legally binding upon the parties, but the parties have agreed in principle to use them when entering into renewals or new similar agreements for subsequent growing seasons. The choice of law provision provides for California law to govern the Agreement.

Overview

 

Sugarmade, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “we”, “us” or the “Company”) was originally incorporated on June 5, 1986 in California as Lab, Inc., and later that month, on June 24, 1986 changed its name to Software Professionals, Inc. On May 21, 1996, the Company changed its name to Enlighten Software Solutions, Inc. On June 20, 2007, Enlighten Software Solutions, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware for the purpose of merging with Enlighten Softwear Solutions, Inc. a California corporation so as to effect a redomicile to Delaware. On January 24, 2008, the Company changed its name to Diversified Opportunities, Inc. On May 9, 2011 we closed on a Share Exchange Agreement with Sugarmade, Inc., a California corporation founded in 2010 and on June 24, 2011 changed our name to Sugarmade, Inc.

 

Our Company operates much of its business activities through our subsidiaries, SWC Group, Inc., a California corporation doing business as CarryOutSupplies.com (“SWC”), NUG Avenue, Inc., a California corporation and 70% owned subsidiary of the Company (“NUG Avenue”), and Lemon Glow Company, Inc., a California corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Lemon Glow”). In 2014, we acquired SWC, creating the Company as it is today.

 

Shares of our common stock are quoted on the OTC Pink tier of OTC Markets. Our trading symbol is “SGMD”. Our corporate website is www.Sugarmade.com.

 

As of the date of this filing, we are involved in several business sectors and business ventures:

 

Paper and paper-based products: The supply of consumable products to the quick-service restaurant sub-sector of the restaurant industry, and as an importer and distributor of non-medical personal protection equipment to business and consumers, via our Carry Out Supplies subsidiary. Carry Out Supplies is a producer and wholesaler of custom printed and generic supplies, servicing more than 2,000 quick-service restaurants. The primary products are plastic cold cups, paper coffee cups, yogurt cups, ice cream cups, cup lids, cup sleeves, edible packaging, food containers, soup containers, plastic spoons, and similar products for this market sector. This subsidiary, which was formed in 2009.

 

NUG Avenue investment into licensed cannabis delivery in Los Angeles area markets. On February 8, 2021, we became a majority owner of NUG Avenue, which operates a licensed and regulated cannabis delivery service out of Lynwood, California, serving the greater Los Angeles Metropolitan area (the “Lynwood Operations”). The Company currently owns 70% of NUG Avenue’s Lynwood Operations and holds first rights of refusal on NUG Avenue’s business expansion relative to the cannabis marketplace. By way of our capital injection made into NUG Avenue and via our 70% ownership position, we consolidate and recognize 100% of the revenues and 70% of profits or loss generated by NUG Avenue for its Lynwood Operations.

 

-32-

 

 

We believe our investment in NUG Avenue will allow us to expand our presence into the licensed and regulated cannabis marketplace. We believe the California cannabis market is still one of the largest Market currently. According to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration, the total cannabis tax revenue from fourth-quarter of calendar year 2021 return is $308.56 million. This includes California’s cannabis excise tax, which generated $157.37 million; the cultivation tax, which generated $38.98 million; and $112.21 million in sales tax revenue from cannabis businesses. Fourth-quarter revenue shows a potential decrease of 7.5 percent from adjusted revenue figures for the third quarter. However, the total tax revenue increased about 1% compared to fourth-quarter of calendar year 2020. Source: https://www.cdtfa.ca.gov/dataportal/dataset.htm?url=CannabisTaxRevenues

 

Cannabis products delivery service and sales: In February 2020, the Company entered into an agreement with Indigo Dye Group Corp. (“Indigo”) to acquire a 40% stake in Budcars licensed cannabis delivery service (“Budcars”), which operates a licensed cannabis delivery service in the Sacramento, California area. Under the terms of the agreement with Indigo, Sugarmade acquired an option to purchase an additional 30% interest in Budcars. Upon exercise of this option, the Company would acquire a controlling interest in Indigo. As of March 31, 2022, the option has not yet been exercised and the Company’s stake in Budcars remained at 40%. The Company plans to open new locations via purchasing equity in other franchise brands to cover delivery for the entire state of California. Therefore, the Company is not likely at this time to exercise its option to acquire the additional 30% interest in Indigo. In addition, the Company is no longer involved in day-to-day operations of Indigo and going forward, the Company intends to pursue cannabis delivery independent of Indigo. As of October 1, 2020, the Company ceased to have control over the day-to-day business of Indigo and it was deconsolidated and recorded as an investment in nonconsolidated affiliate at its $505,449 estimated fair value and changed to equity method of accounting. Pursuant to the terms of the Indigo agreement, if the Company determines, in its discretion not to continue to make monthly payments, its 40% ownership interest in Indigo will be decreased according to the payment then made. As of December 31, 2020, the Company made $59,370 additional payments, and held approximately 32% of the ownership of Indigo. As of March 31, 2022, the Company recorded equity method investment in affiliates at $372,330, net with $69,077 loss from equity method investment.

 

Selected cannabis and hemp projects: On May 12, 2021, the Company entered into a Merger Agreement by and between Carnaby Spot Bay Corp, a California corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), Lemon Glow Company and Ryan Santiago as shareholder representative, pursuant to which Merger Sub would merge with and into Lemon Glow, with Lemon Glow being the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). Upon the closing of the merger, Lemon Glow was merged into the Company. The purpose of the transactions was to establish a licensed and permitted entity which Sugarmade would cultivate, manufacture, and distribute cannabis to the California markets. At the time of the transactions, none of Lemon Glow, Merger Sub, or Sugarmade was permitted and licensed for such activities.

 

On October 28, 2021, Lemon Glow obtained a conditional Use Permit (UP) number from the Community Development Department of the County of Lake, California, which the Company believes is an important step towards the conditional UP for commercial cannabis cultivation at its property. The issuance of the conditional UP number by the County of Lake allows the Company to proceed with the state cannabis cultivation license application, and potentially obtain certain applicable permits, such as from the Department of Cannabis Control, Department of Food and Agriculture, Department of Pesticide Regulation, Department of Fish and Wildlife, The State Water Resources Control Board, Board of Forestry and Fire Protection, Central Valley or North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board, Department of Public Health, and Department of Consumer Affairs, as may be required. The Company believes that obtaining the conditional UP number by the County of Lake could be the first step toward full approval to cultivate cannabis on up to 32 acres out of the total 640 acres of the property.

 

As of the date of this filing, Sugarmade is working diligently on satisfying the conditions required by the County of Lake to allow the Company to cultivate cannabis.  It is the Company’s intention to begin such activities at the earliest time possible, assuming permits are ultimately issued. Upon issuance, the company will determines the amount of acreages to grow initially based on market demand and pre-orders. However, no such license or permits have yet been issued, and applications are still pending. There can be no assurance that any such license or permits will be issued in the near future or at all.

 

For the 2022 cannabis cultivation season, we are embarking on a new and bold strategy to enter into contract cultivation arrangements with local Lake County, California, cultivators that have decided not to engage in their own cultivation efforts for the 2022 season. These operators have already made significant investments in infrastructure and have highly specialized personnel available that we can utilize on a contract basis for our production of cannabis.

 

By contracting with the owners of these already available resources, Sugarmade will gain immediate access to the marketplace based on an advantageous cost model that will place Sugarmade on par, or in some cases, at a superior cost position compared to many of the larger cannabis cultivation and distribution companies in the industry. 

 

We are in negotiations with several local permitted and licensed operators that are agreeable to a partnership arrangement with Sugarmade to manage operations for cannabis cultivation. We are also in active negotiations on the distribution side of the business that will allow Sugarmade to bring this cultivated cannabis to the marketplace. 

 

Invoking this dynamic short-term strategy, while continuing to develop our longer-term strategy to fully develop the large Lemon Glow property for cultivation, will allow Sugarmade to significantly advance the timeframe for gaining market share in this industry - and we believe we will be able to do so based on a cost model that will allow us to produce strong margins this cultivation season.

 

COVID-19 Impact

 

Our business and operating results for 2021 and 2020 were impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, we have seen improvement in our business, which we expect to continue throughout the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022.

Revenues

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, revenues were $1,285,300 and $404,843, respectively. The increase was primarily due to increased sales in cannabis delivery services during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

 

Cost of goods sold

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, costs of goods sold were $495,217 and $229,818, respectively. The increase was primarily due to increased sales from the Company’s paper product business in March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year.

 

Gross profit

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, gross profit was $790,083 and $175,025, respectively. The increase was primarily due to the high profit for the cannabis delivery services during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

 

Operating expenses

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, operating expenses were $2,171,840 and $776,276, respectively. The increase was mainly due to increased in advertising and payroll expenses for the cannabis delivery services during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, revenues were $3,689,906 and $2,851,822, respectively. The increase was primarily due to the sales increase in cannabis delivery services during the nine months ended March 31, 2022.

 

Cost of goods sold

 

For the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, costs of goods sold were $1,344,029 and $1,502,247, respectively. The decrease was primarily due to the deconsolidation of Indigo for the cannabis delivery services during the nine months ended March 31, 2022.

 

Gross profit

 

For the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, gross profit was $2,345,877 and $1,349,575, respectively. The increase was primarily due to the growth of the NUG Avenue cannabis delivery services during the current period.

 

Operating expenses

 

For the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, operating expenses were $6,165,155 and $3,395,996, respectively. The increase was mainly due to the increase in advertising and payroll expenses for the cannabis delivery services during the nine months ended March 31, 2022.

The Company had total other non-operating expense of $6,001,832 and $3,912,812 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in non-operating expense is related to the increase in amortization of intangible assets and accounting for the changes in fair value of derivative liabilities.

 

Net loss

 

Net loss totaled $9,381,120 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, compared to a net loss of $5,912,591 for the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was mainly due to the increase in advertising and payroll expenses for the cannabis delivery services during the nine months ended March 31, 2022, increase in amortization of intangible assets and increase in the accounting for the changes in derivative liabilities due to conversions.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We have primarily financed our operations through the sale of unregistered equity and convertible notes payable. As of March 31, 2022, our Company had a cash balance of $148,236, current assets totaling $2,027,161 and total assets of $17,402,271. We had current and total liabilities totaling $12,900,893 and $19,371,763, respectively, as of March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2022, stockholders’ deficiency totaled $1,969,492.

 

-35-

 

 

The following is a summary of cash provided by or used in each of the indicated types of activities during the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021:

 

   2022   2021 
Cash (used in) provided by:          
Operating activities  $(3,054,834)  $(2,647,840)
Investing activities   (1,198,481)   (55,810)
Financing activities   3,004,608    2,532,530 

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $3,054,834 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, and $2,647,840 for the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was attributable to the changes in accounts receivable, prepayments, and other payables.

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $1,198,481 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, and $55,810 for the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The increase was attributable to purchase of new vehicles and land improvements.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $3,004,608 for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and $2,532,530 for the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in cash inflow in 2022 was mainly due to proceeds from loan payables.

 

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 agreement or source 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 March 31, 2022, we estimate that the cash necessary to implement our current business plan for the next twelve 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 unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and our independent public accountants have included a similar discussion in their opinion on our financial statements through June 30, 2021. 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-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.

Critical Accounting Policies Involving Management Estimates and Assumptions

 

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 unaudited 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 unaudited 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 endeavors to increase revenue-generating operations. While the Company’s priority is on generating cash from operations, management also seeks 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.

 

Business combinations

 

The Company applies the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations, in accounting for its acquisitions. It requires the Company to recognize separately from goodwill the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed, at the acquisition date fair values. Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the acquisition date fair values of the net assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. The Company used third party valuation company to determine the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill.

 

-37-

 

 

Revenue recognition

 

We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC No. 606, Revenue Recognition. Sugarmade applied a five-step approach in determining the amount and timing of revenue to be recognized: (1) identifying the contract with a customer, (2) identifying the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (5) recognizing revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied.

 

Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is recognized at the time control of the products transfers to the customer.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets, which include property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.

 

Recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the assets. Fair value is generally determined using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable. Based on its review, there was $0 and $43,800 impairment loss of its long-lived assets as of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively.

 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired in business combinations accounted for under the acquisition method. Intangible assets represent purchased intangible assets including developed technology and in-process research and development, technologies acquired or licensed from other companies, customer relationships, non-compete covenants, backlog, and trademarks and tradenames. Purchased finite-lived intangible assets are capitalized and amortized over their estimated useful lives. Technologies acquired or licensed from other companies, customer relationships, non-compete covenants, backlog, and trademarks and tradenames are capitalized and amortized over the lesser of the terms of the agreement, or estimated useful life. We capitalized the cannabis cultivation license acquired as part of a business combination.

 

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 Binomial 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. Stock-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 stock-based payment, whichever is more readily determinable.

 

-38-

 

 

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 3 inputs for its valuation methodology for the derivative liabilities in determining the fair value using the Binomial option-pricing model for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022.

 

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 Binomial 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.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Not applicable.

 

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 SEC Rule 13a-15€ 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 December 31, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because 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 unaudited 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.

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.
