WEED, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
(Formerly United Mines, Inc.)
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2018
 
Note 1 – Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
 
Nature of Business
WEED, Inc. (the “Company”), (formerly United Mines, Inc.) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Arizona on August 20, 1999 (“Inception Date”) as Plae, Inc. to engage in the exploration of gold and silver mining properties. On November 26, 2014, the Company was renamed from United Mines, Inc. to WEED, Inc. and was repurposed to pursue a business involving the purchase of land, and building Commercial Grade “Cultivation Centers” to consult, assist, manage & lease to Licensed Dispensary owners and organic grow operators on a contract basis, with a concentration on the legal and medical marijuana sector. The Company’s plan is to become a True “Seed-to-Sale” company providing infrastructure, financial solutions and real estate options in this new emerging market. The Company, under United Mines, was formerly in the process of acquiring mineral properties or claims located in the State of Arizona, USA. The name was previously changed on February 18, 2005 to King Mines, Inc. and then subsequently changed to United Mines, Inc. on March 30, 2005. The Company trades on the OTC Pink Sheets under the stock symbol: BUDZ.
 
On April 20, 2017, the Company acquired Sangre AT, LLC, a Wyoming company doing business as Sangre AgroTech. (“Sangre”). Sangre is a plant genomic research and breeding company comprised of top-echelon scientists with extensive expertise in genomic sequencing, genetics-based breeding, plant tissue culture, and plant biochemistry, utilizing the most advanced sequencing and analytical technologies and proprietary bioinformatics data systems available. Sangre is working on a cannabis genomic study to complete a global genomic classification of the cannabis plant genus.
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary for fair presentation of the information contained therein.
 
The Company has a calendar year end for reporting purposes.
 
Basis of Presentation:
The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2017, has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2018 and 2017 ( the “financial statements”), have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included in our Registration Statement on Form S-1 for the year ended December 31, 2017 (the “2017 Annual Report”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). 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 statements presentation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to make the condensed consolidated financial statements not misleading as required by Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations expected for the year ending December 31, 2018.

Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1 – Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the 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 from those estimates.
  
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Under FASB ASC 820-10-05, the Financial Accounting Standards Board establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, prepaid expenses and accrued expenses reported on the balance sheet are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short term nature of the instruments.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for possible impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable or is impaired. Recoverability is assessed using undiscounted cash flows based upon historical results and current projections of earnings before interest and taxes. Impairment is measured using discounted cash flows of future operating results based upon a rate that corresponds to the cost of capital. Impairments are recognized in operating results to the extent that carrying value exceeds discounted cash flows of future operations.
 
Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share
The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an “as if converted” basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the periods presented, potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share.
  
Stock-Based Compensation
Under FASB ASC 718-10-30-2, all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative.
 
Revenue Recognition
On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new revenue recognition standard ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”, using the cumulative effect (modified retrospective) approach. Modified retrospective adoption requires entities to apply the standard retrospectively to the most current period presented in the financial statements, requiring the cumulative effect of the retrospective application as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings at the date of initial application. No cumulative-effect adjustment in retained earnings was recorded as the Company’s has no historical revenue. The impact of the adoption of the new standard was not material to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018. The Company expects the impact to be immaterial on an ongoing basis.
 
The primary change under the new guidance is the requirement to report the allowance for uncollectible accounts as a reduction in net revenue as opposed to bad debt expense, a component of operating expenses. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements, other than additional financial statement disclosures. The guidance requires increased disclosures, including qualitative and quantitative disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.
 
The Company operates as one reportable segment.
 
Sales on fixed price contracts are recorded when services are earned, the earnings process is complete or substantially complete, and the revenue is measurable and collectability is reasonably assured. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company will defer any revenue from sales in which payment has been received, but the earnings process has not occurred. Sales have not yet commenced.
 
Advertising and Promotion
All costs associated with advertising and promoting products are expensed as incurred. These expenses were $998 and $3,136 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. Subsequent to the issuance of ASU No. 2014-09, the
 
FASB clarified the guidance through several Accounting Standards Updates; hereinafter the collection of revenue guidance is referred to as “Topic 606.” Topic 606 is based on the principle that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Topic 606 also requires additional disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to fulfill a contract. The Company adopted Topic 606 on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective transition method; accordingly, Topic 606 has been applied to the fiscal 2018 financial statements and disclosures going forward, but the comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. We expect the impact of the adoption of Topic 606 to be immaterial to our operating results on an ongoing basis.
 
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. The standard requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet and requires expanded disclosures about leasing arrangements. We plan to adopt the standard on January 1, 2019. We are currently assessing the impact that the new standard will have on our consolidated financial statements, which will consist primarily of a balance sheet gross up of our operating leases to show equal and offsetting lease assets and lease liabilities.
 
In June 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.  This ASU expands the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees.  The amendments in this ASU will become effective for us beginning January 1, 2019, and early adoption is permitted. We do not anticipate that this ASU will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
 
Note 2 – Going Concern
 
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has no revenues, incurred net losses from operations resulting in an accumulated deficit of $41,232,071 and had limited working capital at September 30, 2018. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management is actively pursuing new products and services to begin generating revenues. In addition, the Company is currently seeking additional sources of capital to fund short term operations. The Company, however, is dependent upon its ability to secure equity and/or debt financing and there are no assurances that the Company will be successful; therefore, without sufficient financing it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern.
 
The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 4 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
Under FASB ASC 820-10-5, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The standard outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures. Under GAAP, certain assets and liabilities must be measured at fair value, and FASB ASC 820-10-50 details the disclosures that are required for items measured at fair value.
 
The Company has certain financial instruments that must be measured under the new fair value standard. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The three levels are as follows:
 
Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.
 
Level 2 - Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).
 
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

On January 19, 2018, the Company was sued in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona ( William Martin v. WEED, Inc.. , Case No. 4:18-cv-00027-RM) by the listed Plaintiff. The Company was served with the Verified Complaint on January 26, 2018. The Complaint alleges claims for breach of contract-specific performance, breach of contract-damages, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, conversion, and injunctive relief. In addition to the Verified Complaint, the Company was served with an application to show cause for a temporary restraining order. The Verified Complaint alleges the Company entered into a contract with the Plaintiff on October 1, 2014 for the Plaintiff to perform certain consulting services for the Company in exchange for 500,000 shares of its common stock up front and an additional 700,000 shares of common stock to be issued on May 31, 2015. The Plaintiff alleges he completed the requested services under the agreement and received the initial 500,000 shares of common stock, but not the additional 700,000 shares. The request for injunctive relief asks the Court to Order the Company to issue the Plaintiff 700,000 shares of its common stock, and possibly include them in its Registration Statement on Form S-1, or, in the alternative, issue the shares and have them held by the Court pending resolution of the litigation, or, alternatively, sell the shares and deposit the sale proceeds in an account that the Court will control. The hearing on the Temporary Restraining Order occurred on January 29, 2018. On January 30, 2018, the Court issued its ruling denying the application for a Temporary Restraining Order. Currently, there is no further hearing scheduled in this matter . On February 13, 2018, the Company filed an Answer to the Verified Complaint and Counterclaim. On February 15, 2018, the Company filed a Motion to Dismiss the Verified Complaint. On February 23, 2018, the Company filed a Motion to Amend Counterclaim to add W. Martin’s wife, Joanna Martin as a counterdefendant. On March 9, 2018, William Martin filed a Motion to Dismiss the Counterclaim. On March 12, 2018, William Martin filed a Motion to Amend the Verified Complaint to, among other things, add claims against Glenn Martin and Nicole and Ryan Breen. On March 27, 2018, the Court granted both William Martin and WEED, Inc.’s Motions to Amend. On March 27, 2018, the Company filed an Amended Counterclaim adding Joanna Martin. On April 2, 2018, the Company filed a Motion to Amend our Counterclaim to add a breach of contract claim. On April 10, 2018, the Company filed an Answer to First Amended Verified Complaint. On April 23, 2018, Glenn Martin and Nicole and Ryan Breen filed their Answer to the First Amended Complaint. On May 31, 2018, the Court issued an Order: (a) granting the Company’s Motion to Dismiss thereby dismissing the Plaintiff’s claims for breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing and the claim for conversion, (b) denying William Martin’s Motion to Dismiss the counterclaim as to the claims for fraudulent concealment and fraudulent misrepresentation, but granting the Motion to Dismiss only as to the claim for fraudulent nondisclosure, and (c) granting the Company’s Motion to Amend its Counterclaim to add a breach of contract claim. On June 1, 2018, William Martin and his wife filed their Answer to the First Amended Counterclaim. On June 1, 2018, William Martin and his wife filed their Answer to the Second Amended Counterclaim. In addition to the above pleadings and motions, the parties have exchanged disclosure statements and served and responded to written discovery.

ITEM 2            Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Disclaimer Regarding Forward Looking Statements
 
Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations contains not only statements that are historical facts, but also statements that are forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are, by their very nature, uncertain and risky. These risks and uncertainties include international, national and local general economic and market conditions; demographic changes; our ability to sustain, manage, or forecast growth; our ability to successfully make and integrate acquisitions; raw material costs and availability; new product development and introduction; existing government regulations and changes in, or the failure to comply with, government regulations; adverse publicity; competition; the loss of significant customers or suppliers; fluctuations and difficulty in forecasting operating results; changes in business strategy or development plans; business disruptions; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the ability to protect technology; and other risks that might be detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
Although the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report reflect the good faith judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by them. Consequently, and because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, the actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports as we attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations and prospects.
 
Overview
 
We are an early stage holding company currently focused on the development and application of cannabis-derived compounds for the treatment of human disease. Our wholly-owned subsidiary, Sangre AT, LLC (“Sangre”), has begun a planned five-year Cannabis Genomic Study to complete a genetic blueprint of the Cannabis plant genus, by creating a global genomic classification of the entire plant. By targeting cannabis-derived molecules that stimulate the endocannabinoid system, Sangre’s research team plans to develop scientifically-valid and evidence-based cannabis strains for the production of disease-specific medicines. The goal of the research is to identify, collect, patent, and archive a collection of highly-active medicinal strains. We plan to conduct this study only in states where cannabis has been legalized for medicinal purposes.
 
Using annotated genomic data and newly generated phenotypic data, Sangre plans to identify and isolate regions of the plant genome which are related to growth, synthesis of desired molecules, and drought and pest resistance. This complex data set would then be utilized in a breeding program to generate and establish new hybrid cultivars which exemplify the traits that are desired by the medical and patient community. This breeding program would produce new seed stocks and clones, which we plan on patenting. If successful this intellectual property should generate immense value for the Company. After developing a comprehensive understanding of the annotated genome of a variety of cannabis strains, and obtaining intellectual property protection over the most promising strains, we plan move forward either independently or with strategic partners to develop medicinal products for the treatment of a multitude of human diseases.
 
 
25
 
 
Our current, short-term goals relate to the Cannabis Genomic Study and the resulting development of a variety of new cannabis strains, and, over the next 5 years, we plan to process those results in order to become an international cannabis research and product development company, with a globally-recognized brand focusing on building and purchasing labs, land and building commercial grade “Cultivation Centers” to consult, assist, manage & lease to universities, state governments, licensed dispensary owners and organic grow operators on a contract basis with a concentration on the legal and medical cannabis sector..
 
Our long-term plan is to become a true “Seed-to-Sale” global holding company providing infrastructure, financial solutions, product development, and real estate options in this new emerging market. Our long term growth may also come from the acquisition of synergistic businesses, such as distilleries, to make anything from infused beverages to super oxygenated water with CBD and THC. Currently, WEED Inc. has formed WEED Australia Ltd., registered as an unlisted public company in Australia to address this Global demand. We have also formed WEED Australia Ltd., registered as an unlisted public company in Australia, to address future global demand, however the entity has been dormant since its inception. We will look to conduct future research, marketing, import/exporting, and manufacturing of our proprietary products on an international level.
 
In furtherance of our current, short terms goals, Sangre initiated the cannabis genome project in April 2017, by extracting DNA from seven cannabis strains in Tucson, Arizona. Sangre followed the initial extraction with a second round of extractions in July 2017. The extracted DNA is currently being sequenced by the Sangre team using a binary sequencing approach based on the use of two distinct sequencing technologies and a proprietary bioinformatics database. Following the generation of genomic data, the sequences will be annotated (compared) against over 300,000 plant genes to elucidate specific de novo pathways responsible for the synthesis of specific compounds and classes of compounds.
 
Under the genome project directives, additional strains are slated for sequencing and annotation as part of the overall expansion of this research project. An integral part of this expansion is the acquisition of additional DNA extraction, amplification, and sequencing technologies. The expansion also includes the installation of high-level IT networks for data acquisition, analysis, and storage.
 
On July 26, 2017, we acquired property located in La Veta, Colorado in order to Sangre to complete its 5-Year, $15+ million Cannabis Genomic Study. The site includes a 10,000+ sq. ft. building that will house Sangre’s genomic research facility, a 4,000+ square foot building for plant product analytics and plant product extraction, a 3,500 sq. ft. corporate office center, and 25 RV slots with full water and electric, which we plan to convert into a series of small research pods. Under the terms of the purchase agreement, we paid $525,000 down, along with 25,000 shares of our common stock, and Sangre took immediate possession of the property. We are obligated to pay an additional $400,000 in cash and issue an additional 75,000 shares of our common stock over the next two years in order to pay the entire purchase price. We estimate it will take approximately $675,000 in order to convert the existing buildings into the facilities necessary for Sangre AgroTech to conduct its research, plus an additional $1,000,000 for security & ground buildout, and an additional $1 million for scientific equipment, ordered for plant production and product extraction. The initial property renovations have been extended to Spring of 2019, primarily due to the weather in Colorado during the winter season. As a result, the equipment is now scheduled to be delivered in Q2 or Q3 of 2019. We will need to raise additional funds in order to pay the remainder of the purchase price, as well as to complete the planned renovations.
 
WEED Inc. acquired the property in La Veta, Colorado in order to facilitate the expansion of the genomic studies and the development of new hybrid strains. The facility is currently under re-design and renovation to convert the existing structures into a world-class genetics research center.
 
 
26
 
 
A gene-based breeding program will allow us to root out inferior cultivars and replace them with fully-validated and patentable cultivars which produce consistent plant products for the medicinal markets. The gene-based breeding program will improve cultivars and introduce integrity, stability, and quality to the market in the following ways:
 
accelerated and optimized growth rates; modern genomic resources will enhance traditional breeding methods
 
generate new cultivars, accelerating and perfecting the art of selective breeding
 
provide the ability to assay for specific genes within the crop, establish strain tracking, and promote market quality assurance
 
improved disease, pest, and drought resistance of the Cannabis plant
 
We believe the gene-based breeding program will facilitate and accelerate:
 
improved therapeutic properties, i.e., increased THC/CBD concentration and the production of specific classes of oils and terpenes
 
enhanced opportunities for new drug discovery
 
accelerated breeding of super-cultivars: drought, pest, and mold resistant, increased %THC
 
revenue generation through our unique ability to breed and genetically fingerprint new, super-cultivars; establish strong patent protection; and provide these cultivars to the market on a favorable cost and royalty basis.
 
Our goal with this program is to develop a translational breeding program to establish a new collection of Cannabis cultivars for the Colorado, national, and international markets. Through the use of genetic screening technology, cultivars can be up-selected for specific traits and grown to address the needs of consumers in the medicinal market.
 
Corporate Overview
 
We were originally incorporated under the name Plae, Inc., in the State of Arizona on August 20, 1999. At the time we operated under the name Plae, Inc., no business was conducted. No books or records were maintained and no meetings were held. In essence, nothing was done after incorporation until Glenn E. Martin took possession of Plae, Inc. in January 2005. On February 18, 2005, the corporate name was changed to King Mines, Inc. and then subsequently changed to its current name, United Mines, Inc., on March 30, 2005. No shares were issued until the Company became United Mines, Inc. From 2005 until 2015, we were an exploration stage mineral exploration company that owned a number of unpatented mining claims and Arizona State Land Department claims.
 
On November 26, 2014, our Board of Directors approved the redomestication of our company from Arizona to Nevada (the “Articles of Domestication”), and approved Articles of Incorporation in Nevada, which differed from then-Articles of Incorporation in Arizona, primarily by (a) changing our name from United Mines, Inc. to WEED, Inc., (b) authorizing Twenty Million (20,000,000) shares of preferred stock, with blank check rights granted to our Board of Directors, and (c) authorizing Two Hundred Million (200,000,000) shares of common stock (the “Nevada Articles of Incorporation”). On December 19, 2014, the holders of a majority of our outstanding common stock approved the Articles of Domestication and the Nevada Articles of Incorporation at a Special Meeting of Shareholders. On January 16, 2015, the Articles of Domestication and the Nevada Articles of Incorporation went effective with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. On February 2, 2015, our name change to WEED, Inc., and a corresponding ticker symbol change to “BUDZ” went effective with FINRA and was reflected on the quotation of our common stock on OTC Markets.
 
 
27
 
 
These changes were effected in order to make our corporate name and ticker symbol better align with our short-term and long-term business focus. Our current, short-term goals relate to the Cannabis Genomic Study and the resulting development of a variety of new cannabis strains, and, over the next 5 years, we plan to process those results in order to become an international cannabis research and product development company, with a globally-recognized brand focusing on building and purchasing labs, land and building commercial grade “Cultivation Centers” to consult, assist, manage & lease to universities, state governments, licensed dispensary owners and organic grow operators on a contract basis with a concentration on the legal and medical cannabis sector.
 
Our long-term plan is to become a true “Seed-to-Sale” global holding company providing infrastructure, financial solutions, product development, and real estate options in this new emerging market. Our long term growth may also come from the acquisition of synergistic businesses, such as distilleries, to make anything from infused beverages to super oxygenated water with CBD and THC.

We have also formed WEED Australia Ltd., registered as an unlisted public company in Australia, to address future global demand, however the entity has been dormant since its inception. We will look to conduct future research, marketing, import/exporting, and manufacturing of our proprietary products on an international level.
 
On April 20, 2017, we entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Sangre AT, LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company, under which we acquired all of the issued and outstanding limited liability company membership units of Sangre in exchange for Five Hundred Thousand (500,000) shares of our common stock, restricted in accordance with Rule 144. As a result of this agreement, Sangre is a wholly-owned subsidiary of WEED, Inc.
 
This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements included as part of this Quarterly Report.

Our net loss increased by $6,740,533, from ($587,148) to ($7,327,681), from the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2018. Our operating loss increased by $6,894,139, from ($582,553) to ($7,476,692) for the same period. The increase in operating loss and net loss compared to the same period of the prior year is primarily a result of our significant increase in professional fees, as well as increases in our general and administrative expenses and depreciation and amortization expenses. These changes are detailed below.
 
Revenue
 
We have not had any revenues since our inception. We are company focused on the medical cannabis sector. In the short-term we plan to conduct Sangre’s Cannabis Genomic Study over the next 5 years and process those result, and in the long-term is to be a company focused on purchasing land and building commercial grade “Cultivation Centers” to consult, assist, manage & lease to licensed dispensary owners and organic grow operators on a contract basis, with a concentration on the legal and medical marijuana (Cannabis) sector. Our long-term plan is to become a True “Seed-to-Sale” company providing infrastructure, financial solutions and real estate options in this new emerging market, worldwide. We plan to make our brand global and therefore we will look for opportunities to conduct future research, marketing, import and exporting, and manufacturing of any proprietary products on an international level.
 
 
29
 
 
General and Administrative Expenses
 
General and administrative expenses decreased by $132,694, from $166,729 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 to $34,035 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, primarily due to a reclassification of approximately $164,000 of construction in progress expenses to fixed assets.
 
Professional Fees
 
Our professional fees increased by $6,999,481 during the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2017. Our professional fees were $7,399,214 for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and $399,733 for the three months ended September 30, 2017. These fees are largely related to fees paid for legal and accounting services, along with compensation to independent contractors, and increased primarily as a result of increased stock-based compensation awards. The significant increase in professional fees for the three months ended September 30, 2018, related to stock-based compensation awards, as well as, costs incurred in connection with the land and property acquisitions and the work related to our registration statement filing and related amendments. We expect these fees to grow steadily as our business expands if we continue to use stock-based compensation. In the event we undertake an unusual transaction, such as an acquisition, securities offering, or file a registration statement, we would expect these fees to substantially increase during that period.
 
Depreciation and Amortization
 
During the three months ended September 30, 2018 we had depreciation and amortization expense of $43,443, compared to $16,091 in the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Our depreciation and amortization expense primary relates to our property acquisitions.
 
Interest Expense
 
Interest expense decreased slightly from $4,595 to $4,123 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2018. Our interest expense primarily relates to the mortgages maintained on our acquired properties.
 
Other Income
 
Other income increased from $0 to $155,696 for the three months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2018. Our other income for the three months ended September 30, 2018, related to an insurance settlement received in connection with a fire at the Company’s La Veta property.

Our operating loss increased by $19,429,917, from ($1,801,957) to ($21,231,874) for the same period. The increase in our net loss was primarily the result of increases in our operating expenses as well as a significant loss on extinguishment of debt. Our operating loss compared to the prior year period is primarily a result of a significant increase in professional fees and an increase in general and administrative expenses. These changes are detailed below.
 
Revenue
 
We have not had any revenues since our inception. Prior to February 18, 2005, we were an exploration stage mineral exploration company that owned a number of unpatented mining claims and Arizona State Land Department claims. In late 2014, we changed our short-term and long-term business focus, which in the short-term is to conduct Sangre’s Cannabis Genomic Study over the next 5 years and process those result, and in the long-term is to be a company focused on purchasing land and building commercial grade “Cultivation Centers” to consult, assist, manage & lease to licensed dispensary owners and organic grow operators on a contract basis, with a concentration on the legal and medical marijuana (Cannabis) sector. Our long-term plan is to become a True “Seed-to-Sale” company providing infrastructure, financial solutions and real estate options in this new emerging market, worldwide. We plan to make our brand global and therefore we will look for opportunities to conduct future research, marketing, import and exporting, and manufacturing of any proprietary products on an international level.

General and Administrative Expenses
 
General and administrative expenses increased by $492,502, from $319,176 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 to $811,678 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, primarily due to increased consulting and administrative costs incurred as we changed our business focus from mining to one involved in the cannabis research industry.
 
Professional Fees
 
Our professional fees significantly increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2017. Our professional fees were $20,291,424 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and $1,457,030 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. These fees are largely related to fees paid for legal and accounting services, along with compensation to independent contractors, and increased significantly primarily as a result of increased stock-based compensation awards. We expect these fees to continue to grow steadily as our business expands. In the event we undertake an unusual transaction, such as an acquisition, securities offering, or file a registration statement, we would expect these fees to substantially increase during that period.
 
Depreciation and Amortization
 
During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 we had depreciation and amortization expense of $128,772, compared to $25,751 in the three months ended September 30, 2017. Our depreciation and amortization expense primary relates to our property acquisitions.
 
Goodwill Impairment
 
During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we incurred a goodwill impairment expense of $0, compared to $1,015,910 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The goodwill impairment expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, relates entirely to our acquisition of Sangre AT, LLC, which closed on April 20, 2017. In connection with the acquisition we acquired all of the outstanding membership interests of Sangre in exchange for a total of 500,000 shares of our common stock issued to seven individuals. Those shares were valued at $1,003,850 based on the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. A goodwill impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value. The goodwill impairment expense we recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2017, is the difference between the value of the shares of our common stock we granted, plus the value of the liabilities we assumed, and the fair value of the identifiable assets we acquired when we closed the acquisition of Sangre.
 
Loss on Extinguishment of Debt
 
During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we incurred a loss on extinguishment of debt of $1,064,720, compared to $67,983 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The loss on extinguishment of debt for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, relates to the settlement of the Miller Note in March 2018 with common stock with a fair value in excess of the indebtedness. The loss on extinguishment of debt for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, relates to entirely to the fact that on June 16, 2017, we issued 70,000 shares of our common stock in exchange for the extinguishment of an outstanding promissory note, consisting of $35,000 of principal and $33,250 of interest.
 
 
32
 
 
Interest Income
 
Interest income increased from $0 to $9,338 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to the same period in 2017. Our interest income primarily relates to amounts earned in connection with our cash balances.
 
Interest Expense
 
Interest expense increased from $6,813 to $11,930 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2018. Our interest expense primarily relates to the mortgages maintained on our acquired properties.
 
Other Income
 
Other income increased from $0 to $155,696 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the same period in 2018. Our other income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, related to an insurance settlement received in connection with a fire at the Company’s La Veta property.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Introduction
 
During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, because of our operating losses, we did not generate positive operating cash flows. Our cash on hand as of September 30, 2018 was $47,606 and our monthly cash flow burn rate was approximately $45,000. Our cash on hand was primarily proceeds from the sales of our securities. We currently do not believe we will be able to satisfy our cash needs from our revenues for many years to come.
 
Our cash, current assets, total assets, current liabilities, and total liabilities as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, are as follows:

Our total assets increased by $1,860,249 as of September 30, 2018 as compared to December 31, 2017. The increase in our total assets between the two periods was primarily attributed to a significant increase in our property and equipment, net due to the properties we acquired in 2018, and increases in our prepaid expenses and deposits at September 30, 2018, offset slightly by less cash on hand at September 30, 2018.
 
Our current liabilities and total liabilities decreased by $562,116, as of September 30, 2018 as compared to December 31, 2017. A large portion of this decrease was due to decreases in accounts payable, accrued officer compensation, accrued interest, notes payables, and notes payables, related parties. The significant decreases in accrued officer compensation and notes payables were due to the fact we paid significant amounts off during the period.
 
 
33
 
 
In order to pay our obligations in full or in part when due, we will be required to raise capital from other sources. There is no assurance, however, that we will be successful in these efforts.
 
Cash Requirements
 
We had cash available as of September 30, 2018 of $47,606 and $161,178 as of December 31, 2017. Based on our revenues, cash on hand and current monthly burn rate of approximately $45,000, we will need to continue borrowing from our shareholders and other related parties, and/or raise money from the sales of our securities, to fund operations.
 
Sources and Uses of Cash

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
 
ITEM 4              Controls and Procedures
 
(a)
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls Procedures
 
Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. Disclosure and control procedures are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
 
As of September 30, 2018, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our chief executive officer (our Principal Executive Officer) and chief financial officer (our Principal Financial Officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that there are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their desired control objectives. Additionally, in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures, management is required to apply its reasonable judgment. We also do not have an audit committee. Based on the evaluation described above, and as a result, in part, of not having an audit committee and having one individual serve as our chief executive officer and chief financial officer has concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2018 to the same extent they were not effective as of December 31, 2017.
 
As funds become available to us, we expect to implement additional measures to improve disclosure controls and procedures.
 
(b)
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
 
There was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report, which has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
 
(c)
Officer’s Certifications
 
Appearing as an exhibit to this quarterly report on Form 10-Q are “Certifications” of our Chief Executive and Financial Officer. The Certifications are required pursuant to Sections 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Section 302 Certifications”). This section of the quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains information concerning the Controls Evaluation referred to in the Section 302 Certifications. This information should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.

PART II– OTHER INFORMATION
 
ITEM 1            Legal Proceedings
 
William Martin v. WEED, Inc. et al
 
On January 19, 2018, we were sued in the United States District Court for the District of Arizona (William Martin v. WEED, Inc.., Case No. 4:18-cv-00027-RM) by the listed Plaintiff. We were served with the Verified Complaint on January 26, 2018. The Complaint alleges claims for breach of contract-specific performance, breach of contract-damages, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, conversion,and injunctive relief. In addition to the Verified Complaint, we were served with an application to show cause for a temporary restraining order. The Verified Complaint alleges we entered into a contract with the Plaintiff on October 1, 2014 for the Plaintiff to perform certain consulting services for the company in exchange for 500,000 shares of our common stock up front and an additional 700,000 shares of common stock to be issued on May 31, 2015. The Plaintiff alleges he completed the requested servicesunder the agreement and received the initial 500,000 shares of common stock, but not the additional 700,000 shares. The request for injunctive relief asks the Court to Order us to issue the Plaintiff 700,000 shares of our common stock, and possibly include them in our previously-filed Registration Statement on Form S-1, or, in the alternative, issue the shares and have them held by the Court pending resolution of the litigation, or, alternatively, sell the shares and deposit the sale proceeds in an account that the Court will control. The hearing on the Temporary Restraining Order occurred on January 29, 2018. On January 30, 2018, the Court issued its ruling denying the application for a Temporary Restraining Order. Currently, there is no further hearing scheduled in this matter.
 
On February 13, 2018, we filed an Answer to the Verified Complaint and a Counterclaim. In the original Counterclaim we named William Martin as the sole counter-defendant, and alleged, that based upon William Martin’s representations and recommendation, WEED, Inc. hired Michael Ryan as a consultant. We allege that William Martin misrepresented, failed to disclose, and concealed facts from us concerning the relationship between him and Michael Ryan. We are seeking compensatory damages caused by William Martin’s misrepresentation, failure to disclose, and concealment.
 
On February 15, 2018, we filed a Motion to Dismiss the Verified Complaint. On February 23, 2018, we filed a Motion to Amend Counterclaim to add W. Martin’s wife, Joanna Martin as a counterdefendant. On March 9, 2018, William Martin filed a Motion to Dismiss the Counterclaim. On March 12, 2018, William Martin filed a Motion to Amend the Verified Complaint to, among other things, add claims against Glenn Martin and Nicole and Ryan Breen. On March 27, 2018, the Court granted both William Martin and WEED, Inc.’s Motions to Amend. On March 27, 2018, we filed an Amended Counterclaim adding Joanna Martin. On April 2, 2018, we filed a Motion to Amend our Counterclaim to add a breach of contract claim. On April 10, 2018, we filed an Answer to First Amended Verified Complaint. On April 23, 2018, Glenn Martin and Nicole and Ryan Breen filed their Answer to the First Amended Complaint. On May 31, 2018, the Court issued an Order: (a) granting our Motion to Dismiss thereby dismissing the claims for breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing and the claim for conversion, (b) denying William Martin’s Motion to Dismiss the counterclaim as to the claims for fraudulent concealment and fraudulent misrepresentation, but granting the Motion to Dismiss only as to the claim for fraudulent nondisclosure, and (c) granting our Motion to Amend our Counterclaim to add a breach of contract claim. In our breach of contract claim, we allege William Martin breached his Consulting Agreement with us by failing to perform consulting services to us in a professional and timely manner using the highest degree of skill, diligence, and expertise pursuant to the Consulting Agreement. We are seeking an award of compensatory damages caused by the breach of the Consulting Agreement, together with attorney’s fees and costs. On June 1, 2018, William Martin and his wife filed their Answer to the First Amended Counterclaim. On June 1, 2018, William Martin and his wife filed their Answer to the Second Amended Counterclaim.

The parties have conducted discovery and disclosure, including the production by WEED, Inc. of voluminous electronically stored information and the depositions of William, Martin, Glenn E. Martin, Michael Ryan, and Chris Richardson. No other depositions are presently anticipated.
 
On September 14, 2018, WEED, Inc. filed a Motion for Partial Summary Judgment (MPSJ) seeking the dismissal of all remaining claims in the First Amended Complaint (Counts One, Two, Five, and Six). Plaintiff William Martin has not filed a response to the MPSJ. The Court has not set oral argument on the MPSJ.
 
No trial date has been set. We deny the Plaintiff’s allegations in the Amended Complaint in their entirety and plan to vigorously defend against this lawsuit.
 
Travis Nelson v. WEED, Inc.
 
On February 5, 2018, we were sued in Huerfano County, Colorado District Court (Travis Nelson v. WEED, Inc., et al., Case No. 18CV30003) by the listed Plaintiff. The Verified Complaint alleges claims for breach of fiduciary duty, public policy wrongful discharge, promissory estoppel, and unjust enrichment. The Complaint alleges that Plaintiff was wrongfully terminated by subsidiary Sangre AT, LLC because of alleged “whistleblower activities” on behalf of the Plaintiff. Plaintiff alleges that he was promised an annual salary of $120,000, or $600,000 over the 5-year term of the alleged contract. On March 15, 2018, we filed a Motion to Dismiss Verified Complaint seeking dismissal of all claims. On April 5, 2018, Plaintiff filed a First Amended Complaint in an effort to avoid the issues raised in our Motion to Dismiss. The First Amended Verified Complaint asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duty, public policy wrongful discharge, tortious interference with contractual relations, promissory estoppel, and unjust enrichment. On April 18, 2018, we again filed a Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff’s First Amended Verified Complaint. On July 20, 2018, the Court issued an Order granting, in part, our Motion to Dismiss First Amended Verified Complaint. The Court’s Order permitted Plaintiff’s breach of fiduciary duty/shareholder derivative action to proceed but dismissed all remaining claims related to his alleged improper termination. On August 2, 2018, Plaintiff filed a Motion for Leave to File a Second Amended Complaint. The Court issued an Order on October 1, 2018 granting Plaintiff’s permission to file a Second Amended Complaint, which was then filed on October 22, 2018. The Second Amended Complaint includes the permitted breach of fiduciary duty/shareholder derivative action, and also asserts a claim under Colorado’s Organized Crime Control Act, and a wrongful discharge claim. We have answered the Second Amended Complaint, denying all allegations and alleging that the decision not to offer employment to Nelson was the result of pre-employment background checks which showed an extensive criminal history. The parties will exchange disclosure statements on November 16, 2018. The matter will then move into the discovery phase. We believe that the Plaintiff’s allegations are baseless and plan to vigorously defend against this lawsuit.
 
In the ordinary course of business, we are from time to time involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. The litigation process is inherently uncertain and it is possible that the resolution of such matters might have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition and/or results of operations. However, in the opinion of our management, other than as set forth herein, matters currently pending or threatened against us are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

The issuances were made in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. To make this determination we relied on the representations of the purchaser contained in the securities purchase agreements signed by the purchasers, which indicated the purchasers were knowledgeable about our management and our operations, were sophisticated investors, and understood the purchase was part of a private placement.
 
Common Stock Issued to Consultants
 
During the three months ended September 30, 2018, we agreed to issue an aggregate of 250,000 shares of our common stock to unrelated consultants for services rendered.
