Effective August 8, 2019, the Company entered into an Exclusive License Agreement (“License Agreement”) with cGreen, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“cGreen”). The License Agreement grants to the Company an exclusive license to manufacture and distribute the patent-pending THC antidote True Focus™ in the United States, Europe and the Caribbean. The term of the license was ten (10) years and four (4) months from the effective date of August 8, 2019. In consideration of the license, the Company would issue 10,000,000 shares of its common stock as follows: (i) 3,500,000 within ten (10) days of the effective date; (ii) 3,500,000 shares on January 10, 2020; and (iii) 3,000,000 shares not later than June 10, 2020. In addition, the Company would pay cGreen royalties of 7% of the net sales of the licensed products and 7% of all sublicensing revenues collected by the Company. The Company would pay cGreen an advance royalty of $300,000 within ten (10) days of the effective date; $300,000 on January 10, 2020; and $400,000 on or before June 10, 2020 and $500,000 on or before November 10, 2020. All advance royalty payments would be credited against the royalties owed by the Company through December 31, 2020. During the quarter ended December 31, 2019, the intangible asset was written off based on management’s review and evaluation of its recoverability. During the quarter ended June 30, 2020, the Company was in arbitration with cGreen for the breaches of the terms of the License Agreement, however, through an early mediation, both companies reached to a settlement agreement to settle the breaches of the contract on July 27, 2020 (“Effective Date”). As per the settlement agreement, the License Agreement has been terminated and the Company does not have to issue the 10 million shares nor pay the outstanding royalty payable in the amount of $1,191,860. As consideration, the Company paid $130,000 within 30 days of the Effective Date and will pay $100,000 in monthly installments of $10,000 commencing in April 2021 to cGreen resulting in a gain on settlement in the amount of $1,704,860. During quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company has paid its first installment. As at March 31, 2021, the outstanding balance is $90,000 of which $90,000 (December 31, 2020: $90,000) is current and $nil (December 31, 2020: $10,000) is non-current.

 

Effective September 17, 2019, CannaKorp entered into a Purchase, Licensing and Distribution Agreement (“Agreement”) with Nabis Arizona Property LLC of Scottsdale, Arizona (“Nabis”) concerning the distribution of CannaKorp’s WispVaporizer and Wisp™ Pods in Arizona. The term of the Agreement is three (3) years with automatic renewals for additional one-year periods unless the Agreement is terminated pursuant to its terms. Nabis is required to pay CannaKorp $45,000 for the equipment needed to manufacture the WISP™ Pods, of which $4,500 will be paid within three (3) calendar days of Nabis obtaining regulatory approval of its vertically integrated license and the balance of $40,500 within 180 days of the effective date of the Agreement.

 

Under the Agreement, Nabis is licensed to manufacture the WISP™ Pods and to sell the WISP™ Pods in conjunction with the sale of the WISP™ Vaporizer. Nabis is required to meet minimum quarterly orders of two hundred (200) WISP™ Vaporizers and five thousand (5,000) WISP™ Pods cartridges. Nabis is licensed to sell the WISP™ Vaporizer and the WISP™ Pods to end users in Arizona, excluding Amazon, eBay, Walmart or other multistate/national brick and mortar or online sales. CannaKorp has granted Nabis a right of first refusal to obtain an exclusive license in Michigan and in Washington for the same rights granted to Nabis in Arizona.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the equipment to Nabis has been shipped and the Company has provided Nabis an additional 360 days before invoicing Nabis for the equipment. Once when the additional period has passed, the Company will invoice Nabis. Additionally, the first quarter of the Nabis agreement minimums were shipped and invoiced (200 Wisp Units and 5000 Pod Assemblies to enable Nabis to manufacture 5000 complete Wisp Pods) for online and retail distribution in the Arizona Market.

 

During the year ended, December 31, 2020, due to financial strain and difficulties during the pandemic Nabis was forced to restructure their company in its entirety. This has caused strain on the financial position of Nabis and has affected their ability to fulfill their commitments in the agreement signed with CannaKorp. The partnership has since been terminated and all of CannaKorp’s CannaMatic machinery has now been sent back to CannaKorp. The Company does not have any operations, employees or corporate offices based in United States.

The repayment of the Canary Debt, as amended, is guaranteed by Visava and the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary CannaKorp Inc. and secured by (i) a general security interest in the assets of the Company, Canary, Visava and CannaKorp Inc., respectively; and (ii) a pledge by the Company of all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Canary, Visava and CannaKorp Inc. held by the Company. In addition to the foregoing guarantees, security interest and stock pledge, CLI has been granted an option, in lieu of repayment of the amended Canary Debt, to demand, in its sole and absolute discretion the transfer, assignment and conveyance of 75% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Visava and Canary. Furthermore, the President and sole director of CLI has been granted an option to acquire the remaining 25% of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Visava and Canary.

 

Effective August 14, 2020, the Agreement was amended (“Amendment”) to provide that CLI will purchase from Rubin Schindermann, a director of the Company, 500,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock in consideration of the payment by CLI to Rubin Schindermann of $79,520 (CAD $100,000) and the issuance to Schindermann of 10,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. In consideration of the foregoing, Mr., Schindermann resigned as a director of the Company and from any and all administrative and executive positions with the Company’s subsidiaries Visava Inc., Canary Rx Inc. and CannaKorp Inc., respectively. In addition, the Company issued Common Stock Purchase Warrant for 10,000,000 shares of Target common stock to CLI as consideration for the Agreement. Refer to Note 11 for additional details on warrants. The combined impact of both transactions resulted in debt issuance cost of $251,518. This debt issuance cost will be amortized over the term of the debt on straight line basis.

 

The transactions contemplated by the Agreement and the Amendment closed on August 14, 2020.

 

Going Concern and Management Plans

 

The Company has earned minimal revenue since inception to date and has sustained operating losses during the three months ended March 31, 2021. The Company had working capital deficit of $4,706,790 and an accumulated deficit of $29,226,803 as of March 31, 2021. The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations and/or obtaining additional financing from its members or other sources, as may be required.

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern up-to at least 12 months from the balance sheet date; however, the above condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. The unaudited condensed consolidated interim 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.

 

In order to maintain its current level of operations, the Company will require additional working capital from either cash flow from operations or from the sale of its equity. However, the Company currently has no commitments from any third parties for the purchase of its equity. If the Company is unable to acquire additional working capital, it will be required to significantly reduce its current level of operations.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the SEC and are expressed in US dollars. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete annual financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation. Interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021 or for any other interim period. The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company and the notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020.

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Visava Inc. and CannaKorp, Inc. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates may include those pertaining to accruals. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, cost being determined on a weighted average cost basis, and market being determined as the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company records write-downs of inventory that is obsolete or in excess of anticipated demand or market value based on consideration of product lifecycle stage, technology trends, product development plans and assumptions about future demand and market conditions. Actual demand may differ from forecasted demand, and such differences may have a material effect on recorded inventory values. Inventory write-downs are charged to cost of revenue and establish a new cost basis for the inventory. The cost is determined on the basis of the average cost or first-in, first-out methods.

Fixed Assets

 

Fixed assets are reported at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of assets, commencing when the assets become available for productive use, based on the following estimated useful lives:

 

Depreciation is calculated using the following terms and methods:

 

Furniture & office equipment   Straight-line   7 years  
Machinery & equipment   Straight-line   3-5 years  
Software   Straight-line   3 years  
Leasehold improvements   Straight-line   Lease period  

 

An item of equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use. Any gain or loss arising from derecognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying value of the asset) is included in the profit or loss in the period the asset is derecognized. The assets’ residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation are reviewed at each reporting date, and adjusted prospectively, if appropriate.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company follows guidance for accounting for fair value measurements of financial assets and financial liabilities and for fair value measurements of nonfinancial items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements on a recurring basis. Additionally, the Company adopted guidance for fair value measurement related to nonfinancial items that are recognized and disclosed at fair value in the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

 

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

 

  · Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

  · Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

 

  · Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The carrying amounts of financial assets such as cash approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

 

The estimated fair value of cash, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. The derivative liabilities of the promissory convertible notes and warrant liabilities are valued Level 3, refer to Note 11 for further details.

Revenue recognition

 

The Company adopted ASC 606 effective January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective method after electing to delay the adoption of the accounting standard as the Company qualified as an “emerging growth company”. Since the Company did not have any contracts as of the effective day, therefore, there was no material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidation interim financial statements upon adoption of the new standard. Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of the contracts with our customers are satisfied. Our performance obligation generally consists of the promise to sell our finished products to our customers, wholesalers, distributors or retailers. Control of the finished products is transferred upon shipment to, or receipt at, our customers' locations, as determined by the specific terms of the contract. Once control is transferred to the customer, we have completed our performance obligation, and revenue is recognized.

 

The Company did not generate any revenue during three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to $30,000 revenue during comparable period ended March 31, 2020. The revenue represented the sale of Wisp™ vaporizer and pod units. Since the customer had received the units and there are no further obligations as per the agreement, revenue was recognized.

 

In addition, Canary generated revenue of $197,607 (though its investment in JVCo) during the quarter ended March 31, 2021 (quarter ended December 31, 2020: $108,930) and is represented as share of losses from joint venture on the unaudited condensed consolidated interim statement of operations. The revenue was concentrated to three customers (2020: one). The revenue represents the sale of cannabis product. Since the customer have received the product and there are no further obligations as per the agreement, revenue was recognized. Refer to Note 6 for additional details.

 

Deferred revenue is due to a shipment sent to one of the Company’s distributors. However, since control has not been transferred and the performance obligation has not been completed, revenue has not been recognized and proceeds received are classified as deferred revenue. During the quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company was able to settle the payment for $27,500 leading to a gain of $15,219. The settlement amount was paid subsequent to the quarter in April 2021.

 

Equity Method Investments

 

The Company uses the equity method of accounting for investments when the Company has the ability to significantly influence, but not control, the operations or financial activities of the investee. As part of this evaluation, the Company considers the participating and protective rights in the venture as well as its legal form. The Company records the equity method investments at cost and subsequently adjust their carrying amount each period for the Company’s share of the earnings or losses of the investee and other adjustments required by the equity method of accounting. Distributions received from the equity method investments are recorded as reductions in the carrying value of such investments and are classified on the unaudited condensed consolidated interim statements of cash flows pursuant to the cumulative earnings approach. Under this approach, distributions received are considered returns on investment and are classified as cash inflows from operating activities unless the cumulative distributions received, less distributions received in prior periods that were determined to be returns of investment, exceed the cumulative equity in earnings recognized from the investment. When such an excess occurs, the current period distributions up to this excess are considered returns of investment and are classified as cash inflows from investing activities.

 

The Company monitors equity method investments for impairment and record reductions in their carrying values if the carrying amount of an investment exceeds its fair value. An impairment charge is recorded when such impairment is deemed to be other-than-temporary. To determine whether an impairment is other-than-temporary, we consider our ability and intent to hold the investment until the carrying amount is fully recovered. Circumstances that indicate an impairment may have occurred include factors such as decreases in quoted market prices or declines in the operations of the investee. The evaluation of an investment for potential impairment requires us to exercise significant judgment and to make certain assumptions. The use of different judgments and assumptions could result in different conclusions. The Company has recorded impairment losses related to our equity method investments of $nil during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

The Company qualifies as an “emerging growth company” (EGC) under the 2012 JOBS Act. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. As an emerging growth company, management can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. The management has elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Changes to Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurements”, which will improve the effectiveness of disclosure requirements for recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The standard removes, modifies, and adds certain disclosure requirements, and is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019 (for “emerging growth company” beginning after December 15, 2020). The Company has adopted this standard effective from January 1, 2021 and the adoption of this standard did not have any significant impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

 

The FASB recently 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): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, to reduce complexity in applying GAAP to certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. The guidance in ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock by removing the existing guidance in ASC 470-20, Debt: Debt with Conversion and Other Options, that requires entities to account for beneficial conversion features and cash conversion features in equity, separately from the host convertible debt or preferred stock. The guidance in ASC 470-20 applies to convertible instruments for which the embedded conversion features are not required to be bifurcated from the host contract and accounted for as derivatives. In addition, the amendments revise the scope exception from derivative accounting in ASC 815-40 for freestanding financial instruments and embedded features that are both indexed to the issuer’s own stock and classified in stockholders’ equity, by removing certain criteria required for equity classification. These amendments are expected to result in more freestanding financial instruments qualifying for equity classification (and, therefore, not accounted for as derivatives), as well as fewer embedded features requiring separate accounting from the host contract. The amendments in ASU 2020-06 further revise the guidance in ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, to require entities to calculate diluted earnings per share (EPS) for convertible instruments by using the if-converted method. In addition, entities must presume share settlement for purposes of calculating diluted EPS when an instrument may be settled in cash or shares. The amendments in ASU 2020-06 are effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 with early adoption permitted (for “emerging growth company” beginning after December 15, 2023). The Company will be evaluating the impact this standard will have on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

4. Sales Tax Recoverable

 

As at March 31, 2021, the Company had $115,110 of gross sales tax recoverable compared to $95,386 as at December 31, 2020. This is due to sales tax paid by the subsidiary on expenses incurred during the year which are recoverable from the government.

 

The Company has recorded an allowance in the amount of $24,616 (December 31, 2020: $19,924) stemming from the potential uncollectible balances within the outstanding sales tax recoverable amount.

 

5. Fixed Assets

 

The Company’s subsidiary, Canary, initiated construction on its 44,000 square foot cannabis cultivation facility in September of 2017. Since then, extensive demolition and structural upgrades have been carried out at the site. On May 1, 2019, the Company completed the construction of its 44,000 square foot cannabis cultivation facility and on May 14, 2019, the Company submitted a Site Evidence Package to Health Canada as part of the steps to obtain the license to cultivate cannabis at the Company’s facility. On October 8, 2019, the Company was granted licenses to cultivate, process and sell cannabis pursuant to the Cannabis Act (Bill C-45).

 

Canary has recorded depreciation expense of $228,004 during the three months ended March 31, 2021 (March 31, 2020: $nil). Since the facility was not operating during the period ended September 30, 2020 no depreciation had been charged on all assets of Canary during that period.

 

The Company’s other subsidiary, CannaKorp, has been utilizing its assets throughout the period and accordingly, has recorded depreciation expense of $13,791 during the three months ended March 31, 2021 (March 31, 2020: $21,989).

7. Goodwill

 

Business Acquisition

 

ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations” requires that all business combinations be accounted for using the acquisition method and that certain identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination be recognized as assets apart from goodwill. ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other” (“ASC 350”) requires goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets with indefinite useful lives not be amortized, such as trade names, but instead tested at least annually for impairment (which the Company tests each year end, absent any impairment indicators) and be written down if impaired. ASC 350 requires that goodwill be allocated to its respective reporting unit and that identifiable intangible assets with finite lives be amortized over their useful lives.

CannaKorp Inc.

 

Effective January 25, 2019, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Share Exchange (“Exchange Agreement”) with CannaKorp Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CannaKorp”). Company had previously entered into a Letter of Intent with CannaKorp dated November 30, 2018 which was disclosed in the Company’s report on Form 8-K filed December 4, 2018.

 

The Exchange Agreement provides that, subject to its terms and conditions, the Company issued to the CannaKorp shareholders an aggregate of 30,407,412 shares of the Company’s common stock, based on a price per share of $0.10, in exchange for 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of CannaKorp held by the CannaKorp shareholders. In addition, the Company will issue Common Stock Purchase Warrants (“Warrants”) in exchange for all outstanding and promised CannaKorp stock options. The Warrants will grant the holders thereof the right to purchase up to approximately 7,211,213 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company will also assume all outstanding liabilities of CannaKorp. Upon the closing of the Exchange Agreement, CannaKorp will continue its business operations as a subsidiary of the Company. The transaction was closed effective March 1, 2019.

 

Due to the publicly traded nature of the Company’s shares of the common stock, the equity issuance of the shares was considered to be a more reliable measurement of fair market value of the transaction compared to having a separate valuation of the net assets. During the quarter ended, March 31, 2021, all of the warrants expired, none were exercised.

 

This acquisition was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. The fair value of assets, liabilities and intangible assets and the purchase price allocation as of March 1, 2019 was as follows:

During the period and year ended March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, the Company has identified no circumstances which would call for further evaluation of goodwill impairment related to Canary.

 

Goodwill

 

The Company tests for impairment of goodwill at the reporting unit level. In assessing whether goodwill is impaired, the Company utilize the two-step process as prescribed by ASC 350. The first step of this test compares the fair value of the reporting unit, determined based upon discounted estimated future cash flows, to the carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value exceeds the carrying amount, no further work is required and no impairment loss is recognized. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value, the goodwill of the reporting unit is potentially impaired and step two of the goodwill impairment test would need to be performed to measure the amount of an impairment loss, if any. In the second step, the impairment is computed by comparing the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of the goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill is greater than the implied fair value of its goodwill, an impairment loss in the amount of the excess is recognized and charged to statement of operations.

During the period ended March 31, 2021, the Company expensed $77,943 (March 31, 2020: $83,239) in management service fee for services provided by the current key officers of the company.

9. Operating Lease Right-Of-Use Assets and Lease Liability

 

The Company adopted ASC 842 as of January 1, 2019, using a modified retrospective approach and applying the standard’s transition provisions at January 1, 2020, the effective date. The Company made an accounting policy election to exclude from balance sheet reporting those leases with initial terms of 12 months or less.  The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. This determination generally depends on whether the arrangement conveys to the Company the right to control the use of an explicitly or implicitly identified fixed asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Control of an underlying asset is conveyed to the Company if the Company obtains the rights to direct the use of and to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from using the underlying asset. The Company has lease agreements which include lease and non-lease components, which the Company has elected to account for as a single lease component for all classes of underlying assets. Lease expense for variable lease components is recognized when the obligation is probable.

 

Right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. ASC 842 requires a lessee to discount its unpaid lease payments using the interest rate implicit in the lease or, if that rate cannot be readily determined, its incremental borrowing rate. As an implicit interest rate is not readily determinable in the Company’s leases, the incremental borrowing rate is used based on the information available at adoption date in determining the present value of lease payments.  The lease term for all of the Company’s leases includes the non-cancellable period of the lease plus any additional periods covered by either a Company option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise, or an option to extend (or not to terminate) the lease controlled by the lessor. Options for lease renewals have been excluded from the lease term (and lease liability) for the majority of the Company’s leases as the reasonably certain threshold is not met.

 

The Company does not own any real property and it currently leases two locations. For accounting purposes, these leases are treated as operating leases. Upon adoption of ASC 842, the Company recognized $1,795,730 (CAD $2,258,212) of right-to-use assets as operating leases and operating lease obligations. The right-to-use asset was reduced by $1,661,905 (CAD $2,089,921) due to recognition of the prior deferred rent liability which was eliminated upon adoption of ASC 842. Details of these leases are detailed below:

 

During quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company subleased its executive premises to a third party. During quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company subleased its executive premises to a third party which makes rent payments directly to the landlord. However, if the sub-lessee cancels its sub-lease agreement with the landlord during the Company’s lease term with the landlord (ending on August 30, 2023), the Company will be responsible for making rent payments for the period from the date of cancellation by the sub-lessee to August 30, 2023.

 

The Company’s subsidiary, Canary, is a party to a 10-year lease agreement (initiated on July 2014) with respect to its facility to produce Medical Marijuana. The lease agreement was amended effective January 1, 2020, where the amended 10-year term starts on May 1, 2020 and provides the Company an option to extend for three (3) additional terms of ten (10) years. Additionally, effective January 1, 2020, the amended agreement increased the minimum rent to $27,832 (CAD $35,000) plus applicable taxes per month and on each anniversary date, commencing from January 1, 2021, the minimum rent will increase by 1.00%. Furthermore, only the current 10-year term has been factored into the calculation of the lease liability. Effective May 1, 2020, due to the implementation of the new lease, $737,467 (CAD $988,293) was forgiven by the landlord and one vendor.

As explained in Note 6, the JVCo reimburses certain percentage of gross expenses incurred by Canary which includes rent and utilities. Due to this unique circumstance and since operating lease expense are related to rent expenses, the Company has decided to group the operating lease expenses, all lease related expenses and the recoverable amount from JVCo to show a net operating lease expense.

Capitalization

 

Preferred Stock

Par value: $0.0001
Authorized: 20,000,000
Issued: 1,000,000 shares were outstanding as at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020

 

Common Stock

Par value: $0.0001
Authorized: 850,000,000
Issued: 573,452,193 shares are outstanding as at March 31, 2021 (December 31, 2020: 573,277,094)

 

As of March 31, 2021, convertible notes, warrants and preferred stock outstanding could be converted into 3,889,376 (December 31, 2020: 6,928,486), 387,214,383 (December 31, 2020: 364,891,384) and 100,000,000 (December 31, 2020: 100,000,000) shares of common stock, respectively. These together will exceed the authorized common share limit; however, majority of the warrants are unlikely to be exercised due to the depressed share price.

 

Preferred Stock

 

Shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series as may be determined by the board of directors. The board of directors may fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof without any further vote or action by the stockholders of the Company, except that no holder of preferred stock shall have pre-emptive rights. Any shares of preferred stock so issued would typically have priority over the common stock with respect to dividend or liquidation rights. The board of directors does not at present intend to seek stockholder approval prior to any issuance of currently authorized stock, unless otherwise required by law or otherwise.

 

Series A Preferred Stock (“Series A Stock”)

 

Dividends shall be declared and set aside for any shares of Series A Stock in the same manner and amount as for the Common Stock. Series A Stock, as a class, shall have voting rights equal to a multiple of 2X the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding that are entitled to vote on any matter requiring shareholder approval. The Series A Stock holder shall not vote as a separate class but shall vote together with the common stock on all matters, including any amendment to increase or decrease the authorized capital stock. Upon the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the corporation, the assets of the Company available for distribution to its shareholders shall be distributed to the holders of common stock and the holders of the Series A Stock ratably without any preference to the holders of the Series A Stock. Shares of Series A Stock can be converted at any time into fully-paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock at the rate of One Hundred (100) shares of Common Stock for each One (1) share of Series A Stock.

Common Stock

 

Holders of shares of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters to be voted on by the stockholders. Holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights.

 

Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding shares of preferred stock, the holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the board of directors in its discretion from funds legally available therefore.

 

Holders of common stock have no pre-emptive rights to purchase the Company’s common stock. There are no conversion or redemption rights or sinking fund provisions with respect to the common stock. The Company may issue additional shares of common stock which could dilute its current shareholder’s share value.

12. Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share provides for calculations of “basic” and “diluted” earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity similar to fully diluted earnings per share. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

13. Contingencies and commitments

 

Contingencies

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, a terminated employee of Canary has filed a lawsuit against the Company amounting to approximately $1,669,920 (CAD $2,100,000) in Ontario, Canada. Currently, the Company is defending its position and believes that the ultimate decision will be in favor of the Company. Due to the uncertainty of timing and the amount of estimated future cash flows, if any, relating to this claim, no provision has been recognized.

 

A complaint for damages in the amount of $150,000 was lodged against CannaKorp by the former Chief Financial Officer of the CannaKorp for outstanding professional fees. No claim has been registered and is working with management for a settlement. The Management are of the view that no material losses will arise in respect of the legal claim at the date of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements. As at March 31, 2021, $188,865 has been recorded in the CannaKorp’s payable based on past accruals and outstanding invoices. Due to the uncertainty of timing and the amount of estimated future cash flows, if any, relating to this claim, no further amount has been recognized.

 

As explained in Note 1, on July 27, 2020 (“Effective Date”), the Company entered into a settlement agreement with cGreen, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“cGreen”). As consideration, the Company paid $130,000 within 30 days of the Effective Date and will pay $100,000 in monthly installments of $10,000 commencing in April 2021 to cGreen. During quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company has paid its first installment. As at March 31, 2021, the outstanding balance is $90,000 of which $90,000 (December 31, 2020: $90,000) is current and $nil (December 31, 2020: $10,000) is non-current.

 

In April 2020, an employee of Canary, who had previously resigned from the company, filed a claim that their bonus, that had been promised in their employment agreement was unpaid and had filled a claim with the Ministry of Labour in Ontario. While the Ministry of Labour deemed the bonus owed as a valid payment, the matter has since progressed to the Ontario Labour Relations Board (OLRB) in which the company is disputing this bonus due to several contractual factors that the company believes will allow this ruling to be overturned and revised in the company’s favor. During quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company settled with the employee in the amount of $15,904 (CAD $20,000).

 

A claim for damages in the amount of $1,481,302 (CAD $1,862,805) was lodged against Company and its directors by the former Chief Financial Officer of the Company for wrongful dismissal. The management are of the view that no material losses will arise in respect of the legal claim at the date of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements. As at March 31, 2021, $11,684 has been recorded in the Target’s payable based on past accruals. Due to the uncertainty of timing and the amount of estimated future cash flows, if any, relating to this claim, no further amount has been recognized.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2020, a claim for damages in the amount of $103,995 (CAD $130,778) was lodged against Canary by a vendor for breach of contract. The management are of the view that no material losses will arise in respect of the legal claim at the date of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements. As at March 31, 2021, $109,857 (CAD $138,150) has been recorded in the Canary’s payable based on past accruals. Due to the uncertainty of timing and the amount of estimated future cash flows, if any, relating to this claim, no further amount has been recognized.

 

Covid-19 Pandemic

 

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak as a global health emergency. This resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus, including the closure of certain non-essential businesses.

 

During the period and year ended March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, the pandemic did not have a material impact on the Company’s operations. As at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company did not observe any material impairment of its assets or a significant change in the fair value of assets due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company has taken steps to minimize the potential impact of the pandemic including safety measures with respect to personal protective equipment, the reduction in travel and the implementation of a virtual office including regular video conference meetings and participation in virtual customer meetings and other virtual events.

 

Due to the rapid developments and uncertainty surrounding COVID-19, it is not possible to predict the impact that COVID-19 will have on the Company’s business, balance sheet and operating results in the future. In addition, it is possible that estimates in the Company’s financial statements will change in the near term as a result of COVID-19 and the effect of any such changes could be material, which could result in, among other things, impairment of long-lived assets including goodwill. The Company is closely monitoring the impact of the pandemic on all aspects of its business.

Effective December 7, 2020, we sold the ChessStars™ business to a former director, Alexander Starr in consideration of Starr’s cancellation of the $60,000 debt owing to him by us.

 

During the second quarter of 2020, the global spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19) continued to have a significant impact on the Canadian and global economy and customer purchasing behaviour, while equity markets remained volatile. However, these factors have not impacted the Company’s operations, financial results for the quarter.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

 

Business and Plan of Operations

 

Cannabis Business-Canada

 

We are now engaged in the cultivation, processing and distribution of curated cannabis products for the adult-use medical and recreational cannabis market in Canada and where it has been legalized by state legislation, in the United States. We believe that there is a shift in the public’s perception of cannabis from a state of prohibition to a state of legalization. In October 2018, Canada became the first major industrialized nation to legalize adult-use cannabis at the national federal level. Cannabis is still heavily regulated. However, the medical use of cannabis is now permitted in up to 29 countries and many more countries have reformed, or are considering reforming, their cannabis uses laws to include the recreational use of cannabis.

 

In the 2016 publication by Deloitte, Insights and Opportunities Recreational Marijuana, the project size of the Canadian adult-use market ranged from CAD $4.9 billion to CAD $8.7 billion annually. In the 2018 publication by Deloitte, A Society in Transition, an Industry Ready to Boom, the projected size of the Canadian adult-use market in 2019 ranged from CAD $1.8 billion to CAD $4.3 billion. The Canadian medical cannabis industry experienced substantial growth since 2014. Health Canada projects the Canadian cannabis market will reach CAD $1.3 billion in annual value by 2024.

 

We intend to position ourselves with a core emphasis on co-packaging services to accommodate all consumer-packaged goods required for the sophisticated cannabis market in Canada and internationally. This will integrate cannabinoid research, analytical testing, product development and manufacturing.

 

Our product manufacturing will include, but will not be limited to the following:

 

  Cannabis flower pods for vaporizer use
  Cannabis extract pods for vaporizer use
  Cannabis pre-rolls
  K-Cup infused coffee and tea pods
  Infused cannabis beverages
  Infused cannabis edibles

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

 

Statement of Operations – For the three months March 31, 2021 and 2020:

 

Revenue

 

The Company did not generate revenue during quarter ended March 31, 2021 as compared to $30,000 revenue during comparable period ended in 2020. The revenue represented the sale of Wisp™ vaporizer and pod units.

 

In addition, Canary generated revenues of $197,607 (though its investment in JVCo) during the quarter ended March 31, 2021 (quarter ended December 31, 2020: $108,930) and is represented as share of losses from joint venture on the unaudited condensed consolidated interim statement of operations. The entire revenue was sold to three customers (2020: one).

 

Expenses

 

Our expenses are classified primarily into advisory and consultancy fees, management fees, salaries and wages, legal and professional fees, and amortization and depreciation expense. The significant decrease in operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to 2020 is due to lower advisory and consultancy fees, salaries and wages, and office expenses during the period which resulted due to lower amount of activity compared to prior period and reimbursement of operating expenses of our subsidiary, Canary, by the joint venture. Refer to Note 6 for additional details.

 

Expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 primarily represented consulting fees of $1,906 (2020: $44,269), management fees of $77,943 (2020: $83,239), salary and wages amounting in total to $4,669 (2020: $138,780), legal and professional charges of $46,424 (2020: $124,000) comprising legal, review, accounting and Edgar agent fee, amortization and depreciation expense amounting to $241,795 (2020: $21,989), and office and general expenses amounting to $(18,274) (2020: $58,858).

 

Other income and expenses comprised, change in fair value of derivative and warranty liability amounting to negative $2,091,334 (2020: positive $3,455,325), gain on settlement amounting to $15,219 (2020: $nil) interest and bank charges amounting to $220,997 (2020: $36,249), accretion expenses of $nil (2020: $12,200) related to promissory notes and share of loss from joint venture of $11,300 (2020: $nil).

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As at March 31, 2021, we had a working capital deficit of $4,706,790 (December 31, 2020: $4,118,770). We are actively seeking various financing opportunities to meet the deficit capital requirements.

 

We have relied on equity financing and personal funds for our operations. The proceeds may not be sufficient to effectively develop our business to the fullest extent to allow us to maximize our revenue potential, in which case, we will need additional capital.

 

We will need capital to allow us to invest in development. The Company anticipates that its future operations will generate positive cash flows starting in 2021 provided that it is successful in obtaining additional financing in the foreseeable future.

 

Net cash from (used in) operating activities

 

During the period ended March 31, 2020, operating activities provided cash of $79,451 compared to usage of cash $869,973 for the corresponding period of the prior year. This improvement is due to the management’s efficient use of cash and Canary starting to generate sales through the JVCo compared to prior period.

 

Net cash used in investing activities

 

During the period ended March 31, 2020, investing activities used cash of $785,585 compared to $nil for the corresponding period of the prior year. The current period cash utilization represents improvements to Canary’s facility to increase its efficiency and increase cannabis production, and investment made in the JVCo by way of paying operating expenses such as salaries, rent, utilities, etc., which will be reimbursed by the JVCo in the future.

 

Net cash from financing activities

 

During the period ended March 31, 2020, net cash provided by financing activities was $925,177 compared to $710,891 for the corresponding period of the prior year. During the current period, cash was primarily provided by private placements while in the prior period, loans were received from multiple related parties.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

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

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been performed, the amount is fixed and determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.

 

Other critical accounting policies are described in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

 

Subsequent Events

 

During April 2021, the Company paid the outstanding settled amount of $27,500, disclosed as deferred revenue on unaudited condensed consolidated interim balance sheet, to a distributor to release the inventory to the Company.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

Smaller reporting companies are not required to provide the information required by this item.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

 

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), we have carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2021 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) 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.

 

It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

 

Changes in internal controls

 

No change in our system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period ended March 31, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, a terminated employee of Canary has filed a suit against the Company amounting to approximately $1,669,920 (CAD $2,100,000) in Ontario, Canada. Currently, the Company is defending its position and believes that the ultimate decision will be in favor of the Company.

 

In April 2020, an employee of Canary, who had previously resigned from the company, filed a claim that their bonus, that had been promised in their employment agreement was unpaid and had filled a claim with the Ministry of Labour in Ontario. While the Ministry of Labour deemed the bonus owed as a valid payment, the matter has since progressed to the Ontario Labour Relations Board (OLRB) in which the company is disputing this bonus due to several contractual factors that the company believes will allow this ruling to be overturned and revised in the company’s favor. During quarter ended March 31, 2021, the Company settled with the employee in the amount of $15,904 (CAD $20,000).

 

A claim for damages in the amount of $1,481,302 (CAD $1,862,805) was lodged against Company and its directors by the former Chief Financial Officer of the Company for wrongful dismissal. The management are of the view that no material losses will arise in respect of the legal claim at the date of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements. As at March 31, 2021, $11,684 has been recorded in the Target’s payable.

 

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
