Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements
Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Description of
Business
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly,
certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to
such rules and regulations.
Youngevity International, Inc. consolidates all wholly-owned
subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The statements presented as of September 30, 2019 and for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 are unaudited. In
the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all
normal recurring and other adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation, and to make the financial statements not misleading.
These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements
included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2018, filed with the SEC on April 15, 2019. The
results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the
results for the entire year.
Nature of Business
Youngevity International, Inc. (the “Company”), founded
in 1996, develops and distributes health and nutrition related
products through its global independent direct selling network,
also known as multi-level marketing, sells coffee products to
commercial customers, and provides end to end extraction and
processing for the conversion of hemp feedstock into hemp oil.
During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company operated in
two business segments, its direct selling segment where products
are offered through a global distribution network of preferred
customers and distributors and its commercial coffee segment where
products are sold directly to businesses. During the first quarter
of 2019, the Company through the acquisition of the assets of
Khrysos Global, Inc. added a third business segment to its
operations, the commercial hemp segment. The Company's three
segments are listed below:
●
|
Direct selling network is operated through the following (i)
domestic subsidiaries: AL Global Corporation, 2400 Boswell LLC, MK
Collaborative LLC, and Youngevity Global LLC and (ii) foreign
subsidiaries: Youngevity Australia Pty. Ltd., Youngevity NZ, Ltd.,
Youngevity Mexico S.A. de CV, Youngevity Russia, LLC, Youngevity
Colombia S.A.S, Youngevity International Singapore Pte. Ltd.,
Mialisia Canada, Inc. and Legacy for Life Limited (Hong Kong). The

Segment Information
The Company has three reportable segments: direct selling,
commercial coffee, and commercial hemp. The direct selling segment
develops and distributes health and wellness products through its
global independent direct selling network also known as multi-level
marketing. The commercial coffee segment is a coffee roasting and
distribution company specializing in gourmet coffee. The
determination that the Company has three reportable segments is
based upon the guidance set forth in Accounting Standards
Codification (“ASC”) Topic
280, “Segment
Reporting.”
During the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company
derived approximately 89.0% of its revenue from its direct selling
segment and approximately 10.5% of its revenue from its commercial
coffee segment and approximately
0.5% from the commercial hemp segment. During the three months
ended September 30, 2018, the Company had two reportable segments
and derived approximately 88% of its revenue from its direct
selling segment and approximately 12% of its revenue from its
commercial coffee segment.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company
derived approximately 66.5% of its revenue from its direct selling
segment and approximately 33.1% of its revenue from its commercial
coffee segment and approximately 0.4% from the commercial hemp
segment. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the
Company had two reportable segments and derived approximately 84%
of its revenue from its direct selling segment and approximately
16% of its revenue from its commercial coffee segment.
Liquidity and Going Concern
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared and presented on a basis assuming the Company will
continue as a going concern. The Company has sustained significant
net losses during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018
of approximately $20,181,000 and $11,332,000, respectively. Net
cash used in operating activities was approximately $7,762,000 and
$4,732,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018,
respectively. The Company does not currently believe that its
existing cash resources are sufficient to meet the Company’s
anticipated needs over the next twelve months from the date hereof.
Based on its current cash levels and its current rate of cash
requirements, the Company will need to raise additional capital
and/or will need to further reduce its expenses from current
levels. As discussed in Accounts Receivable and Other Relationship
Transactions below, the Company could experience further restraint
on liquidity if the Company does not collect the accounts
receivable balance with H&H Coffee Group Export Corp., in full,
which the Company believes is not likely based on current
negotiations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the
Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern.
The
Company anticipates that revenues will grow, and it intends to make
necessary cost reductions related to international operations that
are not performing well and reduce non-essential
expenses.
The
Company is also considering multiple other fund-raising
alternatives.
On
September 24, 2019, the Company closed a firm commitment public
offering in which the Company issued and sold a total of 333,500
shares of its 9.75% Series D Cumulative Preferred Stock, $0.001 par
value per share, at a price to the public of $25.00 per share,
which included 43,500 shares issued upon the underwriters’
full exercise of their option to purchase additional shares. Net
proceeds from the offering, after
deducting commissions, closing and issuance costs, were
approximately $7,323,000. The Company will use the net proceeds for
working capital and other general corporate purposes.
Between
February 2019 and July 2019, the Company closed five tranches
related to the 2019 January Private Placement debt offering,
pursuant to which the Company offered for sale up to $10,000,000 in
principal amount of notes (the “2019 PIPE Notes”), with
each investor receiving 2,000 shares of common stock for each
$100,000 invested. The Company received aggregate gross proceeds of
$3,090,000 and issued the 2019 PIPE Notes in the aggregate
principal amount of $3,090,000. (See Note 7)
On
March 18, 2019, the Company entered into a two-year Secured
Promissory Note (the “Note” or “Notes”)
with two (2) accredited investors that had a substantial
pre-existing relationship with the Company pursuant to which the
Company raised cash proceeds of $2,000,000. (See Note
6)
On
February 6, 2019, the Company entered into a securities purchase
agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with one
accredited investor that had a substantial pre-existing
relationship with the Company pursuant to which the Company sold
250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value
$0.001 per share, at an offering price of $7.00 per share. Pursuant
to the Purchase Agreement, the Company also issued to the investor
a three-year warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of common stock at
an exercise price of $7.00. The proceeds to the Company were
$1,750,000. Consulting fees for arranging the Purchase Agreement
include the issuance of 5,000 shares of restricted shares of the
Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and a
3-year warrant priced at $10.00 per share convertible into 100,000
shares of the Company’s common stock upon exercise. No cash
commissions were paid.
On January 7, 2019, the Company entered into an
at-the-market offering agreement (the “ATM Agreement”)
with The Benchmark Company, LLC (“Benchmark”), pursuant
to which the Company may sell from time to time, at the
Company’s option, shares of its common stock, par value
$0.001 per share, through Benchmark (the “Sales
Agent”), for the sale of up to $60,000,000 of shares of the
Company’s common stock. The Company is not obligated to make
any sales of common stock under the ATM Agreement and the Company
cannot provide any assurances that it will continue to issue any
shares pursuant to the ATM Agreement. During the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2019, the Company sold 16,524 and
17,524, shares of common stock under the ATM Agreement
respectively, and received net proceeds of approximately $96,000
and $102,000, respectively. The Company paid the Sales Agent 3.0%
commission of the gross sales proceeds.
Depending
on market conditions, there can be no assurance that additional
capital will be available when needed or that, if available, it
will be obtained on terms favorable to the Company or to its
stockholders.
Failure
to raise additional funds from the issuance of equity securities
and failure to implement cost reductions could adversely affect the
Company’s ability to operate as a going concern. The
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be
necessary from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
(“GAAP”) requires the Company to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenue and expense for each reporting period. Estimates are
used in accounting for, among other things, allowances for doubtful
accounts, deferred taxes and related valuation allowances,
fair value of derivative liabilities, uncertain tax positions, loss
contingencies, fair value of options granted under the
Company’s stock-based compensation plan, fair value of assets
and liabilities acquired in business combinations, finance leases,
asset impairments, estimates of future cash flows used to evaluate
impairments, useful lives of property, equipment and intangible
assets, value of contingent acquisition debt, inventory
obsolescence, and sales returns.
Actual results may differ from previously estimated amounts and
such differences may be material to the consolidated financial
statements. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed
periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected
prospectively in the period they occur.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers only its monetary liquid assets with original
maturities of three months or less as cash and cash
equivalents.

Accounts Receivable and Other Relationship
Transactions
Hernandez, Hernandez, Export Y Company and H&H Coffee Group
Export Corp.
The Company’s commercial coffee segment, CLR, is associated
with Hernandez, Hernandez, Export Y Company
(“H&H”), a Nicaragua company, through sourcing
arrangements to procure Nicaraguan grown green coffee beans. In
March 2014, as part of the Siles acquisition, CLR engaged the
owners of H&H as employees to manage Siles. H&H is a
sourcing agent acting on behalf of CLR for purchases of coffee from
the producers. In consideration for H&H's sourcing of green
coffee, CLR and H&H share in the green coffee profit from
operations. H&H made purchases for CLR of approximately
$1,072,000 and $1,896,000 for the three months ended September 30,
2019 and 2018, respectively and approximately $31,233,000 and
$8,969,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018,
respectively.
In addition, CLR sold approximately $669,000 and $117,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and
approximately $35,610,000 and $3,419,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, of green coffee beans to
H&H Coffee Group Export Corp., (“H&H Export”) a
Florida based company which is affiliated with
H&H.
As of
September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, CLR's accounts payable
for vendor related purchases from green coffee producers, agented
by H&H Export were approximately $23,820,000 and $1,633,000,
respectively.
As of
September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, CLR's accounts receivable
for customer related revenue by H&H Export were approximately
$31,225,000 and $673,000, respectively, (see the section titled
“Concentrations” below). Of the $31,225,000 accounts
receivable balance as of September 30, 2019, $23,569,000 is past
due. The Company is collaborating with H&H Export, the
Company’s green coffee suppliers, and third parties in
Nicaragua to develop a sourcing solution to provide the Company
with access to a continued supply of green coffee beans and
solutions for funding of the continued operations of the
Company’s green coffee distribution business. Management has
assessed the collectability of accounts receivable from H&H
Export and believes collectability is probable due to the
Company’s history with H&H Export and the Company’s
continual communication about future contractual
agreements.
The
Company in conjunction with the collaborators has decided that
during these negotiations any repayment or settlement of the
accounts receivable or payable balances will be stayed. The Company
expects this financing arrangement to be finalized by December 31,
2019 at which time the accounts receivable and accounts payable
balances are expected to be settled. In the event that this
financing arrangement does not materialize, which the Company
believes is not likely based on current negotiations, the Company
expects the be able to collect the outstanding accounts receivable
balance in full shortly after this determination is made; however,
if the facts or circumstances change, the Company will continue to
reassess the collectability of these amounts and record a reserve
as appropriate.
In May 2017, the Company entered a settlement agreement with Alain
Piedra Hernandez (“Hernandez”), one of the owners of
H&H and the operating manager of Siles, who was issued a
non-qualified stock option for the purchase of 75,000 shares of the
Company’s common stock at a price of $2.00 with an expiration
date of three years, in lieu of an obligation due from the Company
to H&H as it relates to a Sourcing and Supply Agreement with
H&H. During the period ended September 30, 2017, the Company
replaced the non-qualified stock option and issued a warrant
agreement with the same terms. There was no financial impact
related to the cancellation of the option and the issuance of the
warrant. As of September 30, 2019, the warrant remains
outstanding.
In
December 2018, CLR advanced $5,000,000 to H&H Export to provide
services in support of a 5-year contract for the sale and
processing of 41 million pounds of green coffee beans on an annual
basis. The services include providing hedging and financing
opportunities to producers and delivering harvested coffee to the
Company’s mills. On March 31, 2019, this advance was
converted to a $5,000,000 loan agreement as a note receivable and
bears interest at 9% per annum and is due and payable by H&H
Export at the end of each year’s harvest season, but no later
than October 31 for any harvest year. On October 31, 2019, CLR and
H&H Export amended the March 31, 2019 agreement in terms of the
maturity date, to all outstanding principal and interest shall be
due and payable at the end of the 2020 harvest (or when the 2020
season’s harvest is exported and collected), but never to be
later than November 30, 2020. The loan is secured by H&H
Export’s hedging account with INTL FC Stone, trade
receivables, green coffee inventory in the possession of H&H
Export and all green coffee contracts. As of September 30, 2019,
the $5,146,000 note receivable remains outstanding which includes
accrued interest.
Mill Construction Agreement
On
January 15, 2019, CLR entered into the CLR Siles Mill Construction
Agreement (the “Mill Construction Agreement”) with
H&H and H&H Export, Hernandez and Marisol Del Carmen Siles
Orozco (“Orozco”), together with H&H, H&H
Export, Hernandez and Orozco, collectively referred to as the
Nicaraguan Partner, pursuant to which the Nicaraguan Partner agreed
to transfer a 45 acre tract of land in Matagalpa, Nicaragua (the
“Property”) to be owned 50% by the Nicaraguan Partner
and 50% by CLR. In consideration for the land acquisition the
Company issued to H&H Export, 153,846 shares of common stock.
In addition, the Nicaraguan Partner and CLR agreed to contribute
$4,700,000 each toward the construction of a processing plant,
office, and storage facilities (“Mill”) on the property
for processing coffee in Nicaragua. As of September 30, 2019, the
Company paid $3,510,000 towards construction of a mill, which is
included in construction in process within property and equipment,
net on the Company's condensed consolidated balance
sheet.
Amendment to Operating and Profit-Sharing Agreement
On
January 15, 2019, CLR entered into an amendment to the March 2014
operating and profit-sharing agreement with the owners of H&H. CLR previously engaged
Hernandez and Orozco, the owners of H&H as employees to manage
Siles. In addition, CLR and H&H, Hernandez and Orozco
restructured their profit-sharing agreement in regard to profits
from green coffee sales and processing that increases CLR’s
profit participation by an additional 25%. Under the new terms of
the agreement with respect to profit generated from green coffee
sales and processing from La Pita, a leased mill, or the new mill,
now will provide for a split of profits of 75% to CLR and 25% to
the Nicaraguan Partner, after certain conditions are met. The
Company issued 295,910 shares of the Company’s common stock
to H&H Export to pay for certain working capital, construction
and other payables. In addition, H&H Export has sold to CLR its
espresso brand Café Cachita in consideration of the issuance
of 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Hernandez
and Orozco are employees of CLR. The shares of common stock issued
were valued at $7.50 per share.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from product sales when the
following five steps are completed: i) Identify the contract with
the customer; ii) Identify the performance obligations in the
contract; iii) Determine the transaction price; iv) Allocate the
transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract;
and v) Recognize revenue when (or as) each performance obligation
is satisfied. (See Note 3)
Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products
or services to customers in an amount that reflects the
consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those
products or services. The Company enters into contracts that can
include various combinations of products and services, which are
generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate
performance obligations. Revenue is recognized net of allowances
for returns and any taxes collected from customers, which are
subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.
The transaction price for all sales is based on the price reflected
in the individual customer's contract or purchase
order. Variable consideration has not been identified as a
significant component of the transaction price for any of our
transactions.
Independent distributors receive compensation which is recognized
as Distributor Compensation in the Company’s consolidated
statements of operations. Due to the short-term nature of the
contract with the customers, the Company accrues all
distributor compensation expense in the month earned and pays the
compensation the following month.
The Company also charges fees to become a distributor, and earn a
position in the network genealogy, which are recognized as revenue
in the period received. The Company’s distributors are
required to pay a one-time enrollment fee and receive a welcome kit
specific to that country or region that consists of forms, policy
and procedures, selling aids, access to the Company’s
distributor website and a genealogy position with no down line
distributors.
The
Company has determined that most contracts will be completed in
less than one year. For those transactions where all performance
obligations will be satisfied within one year or less, the Company
is applying the practical expedient outlined in ASC 606-10-32-18.
This practical expedient allows the Company not to adjust promised
consideration for the effects of a significant financing component
if the Company expects at contract inception the period between
when the Company transfers the promised good or service to a
customer and when the customer pays for that good or service will
be one year or less. For those transactions that are expected to be
completed after one year, the Company has assessed that there are
no significant financing components because any difference between
the promised consideration and the cash selling price of the good
or service is for reasons other than the provision of
financing.
Deferred Revenues and Costs
As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the balance in
deferred revenues was approximately $2,005,000 and $2,312,000,
respectively. Deferred revenue related to the Company’s
direct selling segment is attributable to the Heritage Makers
product line and also for future Company convention and distributor
events.
Deferred revenues related to Heritage Makers were approximately
$2,005,000 and $2,153,000, as of September 30, 2019, and December
31, 2018, respectively. The deferred revenue represents Heritage
Maker’s obligation for points purchased by customers that
have not yet been redeemed for product. Cash received for points
sold is recorded as deferred revenue. Revenue is recognized when
customers redeem the points and the product is
shipped.
Deferred costs relate to Heritage Makers prepaid commissions that
are recognized in expense at the time the related revenue is
recognized. As of September 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, the
balance in deferred costs was approximately $257,000 and $364,000,
respectively, and is included in prepaid expenses and other current
assets.
Deferred revenues related to pre-enrollment in upcoming conventions
and distributor events of approximately zero and $159,000 as
of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, relate
primarily to the Company’s 2019 and 2018 events. The Company
does not recognize this revenue until the conventions or
distributor events occur.
Plantation Costs
The Company’s commercial coffee segment includes the results
of Siles, which is a 500-acre coffee plantation and a
dry-processing facility located on 26 acres located in Matagalpa,
Nicaragua. Siles is a wholly-owned subsidiary of CLR, and the
results of CLR include the depreciation and amortization of
capitalized costs, development and maintenance and harvesting costs
of Siles. In accordance with GAAP, plantation maintenance and
harvesting costs for commercially producing coffee farms are
charged against earnings when sold. Deferred harvest costs
accumulate and are capitalized throughout the year and are expensed
over the remainder of the year as the coffee is sold. The
difference between actual harvest costs incurred and the amount of
harvest costs recognized as expense is recorded as either an
increase or decrease in deferred harvest costs, which is reported
as an asset and included with prepaid expenses and other current
assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Once the
harvest is complete, the harvest costs are then recognized as the
inventory value. Deferred costs associated with the harvest as of
September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 are approximately $381,000
and $400,000, respectively, and are included in prepaid expenses
and other current assets on the Company’s balance
sheets.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance
with ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock
Compensation,” which
establishes accounting for equity instruments exchanged for
employee services. Under such provisions, stock-based compensation
cost is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair
value of the award, and is recognized as an expense, under the
straight-line method, over the vesting period of the equity
grant.
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees
in accordance with authoritative guidance for equity-based payments
to non-employees. Stock options issued to non-employees are
accounted for at their estimated fair value, determined using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of options
granted to non-employees is re-measured as they vest, and the
resulting increase in value, if any, is recognized as expense
during the period the related services are rendered.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC
Topic 740, "Income
Taxes," under the asset
and liability method which includes the recognition of deferred tax
assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of
events that have been included in the consolidated financial
statements. Under this approach, deferred taxes are recorded for
the future tax consequences expected to occur when the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. The
provision for income taxes represents income taxes paid or payable
for the current year plus the change in deferred taxes during the
year. Deferred taxes result from differences between the financial
statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are adjusted
for changes in tax rates and tax laws when changes are enacted. The
effects of future changes in income tax laws or rates are not
anticipated.
Income taxes for the interim periods are computed using the
effective tax rates estimated to be applicable for the full fiscal
year, as adjusted for any discrete taxable events that occur during
the period.
The Company files income tax returns in the United States
(“U.S.”) on a federal basis and in many U.S. state and
foreign jurisdictions. Certain tax years remain open to examination
by the major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is
subject.
Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
The Company is from time to time, the subject of claims and suits
arising out of matters related to the Company’s business. The
Company is party to litigation at the present time and may become
party to litigation in the future. In general, litigation claims
can be expensive, and time consuming to bring or defend against and
could result in settlements or damages that could significantly
affect financial results. It is not possible to predict the final
resolution of the current litigation to which the Company is party
to, and the impact of certain of these matters on the
Company’s business, results of operations, and financial
condition could be material. Regardless of the outcome, litigation
has adversely impacted the Company’s business because of
defense costs, diversion of management resources and other
factors.
Concentrations
Vendor Concentration
The Company purchases its inventory from multiple third-party

The Company has purchase obligations related to minimum future
purchase commitments for green coffee to be used in the
Company’s commercial coffee segment. Each individual contract
requires the Company to purchase and take delivery of certain
quantities at agreed upon prices and delivery dates. The
contracts as of September 30, 2019, have minimum future purchase
commitments of approximately $5,767,000. The contracts contain
provisions whereby any delays in taking delivery of the purchased
product will result in additional charges related to the extended
warehousing of the coffee product. The fees can average
approximately $0.01 per pound for every month of delay. To date the
Company has not incurred such fees.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2018, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued Accounting
Standards Update (ASU) No. 2018-15, Intangibles
— Goodwill and Other — Internal-Use Software
(Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for
Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That
Is a Service Contract. Subtopic 350-40
clarifies the accounting for implementation costs of a hosting
arrangement that is a service contract and aligns that accounting,
regardless of whether the arrangement conveys a license to the
hosted software. The amendments in this update are effective for
reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with
early adoption permitted. The Company does not expect
this new guidance to have a material impact on its condensed
consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No.
2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic
820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements
for Fair Value Measurement.
Topic 820 removes or modifies certain current disclosures and
adds additional disclosures. The changes are meant to provide more
relevant information regarding valuation techniques and inputs used
to arrive at measures of fair value, uncertainty in the fair value
measurements, and how changes in fair value measurements impact an
entity's performance and cash flows. Certain disclosures
in Topic 820 will need to be applied on a retrospective
basis and others on a prospective basis. Topic 820 is
effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years,
beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company expects
to adopt the provisions of this guidance on January 1, 2020 and is
currently evaluating the impact that Topic 820 will have on its
related disclosures.
In
January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No.
2017-04, Intangibles —
Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill
Impairment. This ASU simplifies the test for goodwill
impairment by removing Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test.
Companies will now perform the goodwill impairment test by
comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying
amount, recognizing an impairment charge for the amount by which
the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value
not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that
reporting unit. An entity still has the option to perform the
qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the
quantitative impairment test is necessary. The amendments in this
update are effective for goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2019
for public companies, with early adoption permitted for
goodwill impairment tests performed after January 1,
2017. The Company does not expect
this new guidance to have a material impact on its condensed
consolidated financial statements.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In June
2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation
(Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployees Share-Based
Payment Accounting. The intention of ASU 2018-07 is to
expand the scope of Topic 718 to include share-based payment
transactions in exchange for goods and services from nonemployees.
These share-based payments will now be measured at grant-date fair
value of the equity instrument issued. Upon adoption, only
liability-classified awards that have not been settled and
equity-classified awards for which a measurement date has not been
established should be remeasured through a cumulative-effect
adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal
year of adoption. Topic 718 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2018 and is applied retrospectively.
The Company adopted the provisions of
this guidance on January 1, 2019 and the adoption of this standard
did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed
consolidated financial statements.
In
February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive
Income (Topic 220), Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, Topic 220. The
amendments in this Update allow a reclassification from accumulated
other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax
effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (H.R.1) (the Act).
Consequently, the amendments eliminate the stranded tax effects
resulting from the Act and will improve the usefulness of
information reported to financial statement users. However, because
the amendments only relate to the reclassification of the income
tax effects of the Act, the underlying guidance that requires that
the effect of a change in tax laws or rates be included in income
from continuing operations is not affected. The amendments in this
Update also require certain disclosures about stranded tax effects.
Topic 220 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within
those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company adopted the provisions of this
guidance on January 1, 2019 and the adoption of this standard did
not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed
consolidated financial statements.
In July
2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing
Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic
815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with
Down Round Features, (Part II) Replacement of the Indefinite
Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of
Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable
Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception. Topic 260
allows companies to exclude a down round feature when determining
whether a financial instrument (or embedded conversion feature) is
considered indexed to the entity’s own stock. As a result,
financial instruments (or embedded conversion features) with down
round features may no longer be required to be accounted classified
as liabilities. A company will recognize the value of a down round
feature only when it is triggered, and the strike price has been
adjusted downward. For equity-classified freestanding financial
instruments, such as warrants, an entity will treat the value of
the effect of the down round, when triggered, as a dividend and a
reduction of income available to common shareholders in computing
basic earnings per share. For convertible instruments with embedded
conversion features containing down round provisions, entities will
recognize the value of the down round as a beneficial conversion
discount to be amortized to earnings. The guidance in Topic 260 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and
interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is
permitted, and the guidance is to be applied using a full or
modified retrospective approach. The Company adopted Topic 260, Topic 480 and Topic
815 effective January 1, 2019 and determined that it’s 2018
warrants were to no longer be classified as a derivative, as a
result of the adoption and subsequent change in classification of
the 2018 warrants, the Company reclassed approximately $1,494,000
of warrant derivative liability to equity.
In February
2016, FASB established
Topic 842, Leases, by issuing ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic
842) which required
lessees to recognize leases on-balance sheet and disclose key
information about leasing arrangements.
Topic 842 was
subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical
Expedient for Transition to Topic 842; ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to
Topic 842, Leases; ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted
Improvements; ASU No.
2018-20, Narrow-Scope Improvements for
Lessors; and ASU
2019-01, Codification
Improvements. The new standard
establishes a right-of-use model (ROU) that requires a lessee to
recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for
all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases are classified as finance or
operating, with classification affecting the pattern and
classification of expense recognition in the income statement. The
amendments were adopted by the
Company on January 1,
2019. A modified
retrospective transition approach is required, applying the
standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application.
The Company elects to use its effective date as its date of initial
application. Consequently, financial information
will not be
updated, and the disclosures required under the new standard
will not be
provided for dates and periods before January 1, 2019. The new standard provides a number of optional
practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the
“package of practical expedients”, which permits the
Company not to reassess under the new standard prior conclusions
about lease identification, lease classification and initial
direction costs. In addition, the Company elected the practical
expedient to use hindsight when determining lease terms. The
practicable expedient pertaining to land easement is not applicable
to the Company. The Company continues to assess all of the effects
of adoption, with the most significant effect relating to the
recognition of new ROU assets and lease liabilities on the
Company’s balance sheet for real estate operating
leases. The Company
adopted the provisions of this guidance on January 1, 2019 and
accordingly recognized additional operating liabilities of
approximately $5,509,000
with corresponding ROU assets of the same amount based on the
present value of the remaining minimum rental payments under
current leasing standards for existing operating
leases.
Following the expiration of the Company’s Emerging Growth
Company filing status (“EGC”) on December 31, 2018 the
Company adopted the following accounting pronouncements effective
January 1, 2018.
In May
2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic
606), to supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition
guidance under GAAP. Topic 606 also requires new qualitative and
quantitative disclosures, including disaggregation of revenues and
descriptions of performance obligations. The Company adopted the
provision of this guidance using the modified retrospective
approach. The Company has performed an assessment of its revenue
contracts as well as worked with industry participants on matters
of interpretation and application and has not identified any
material changes to the timing or amount of its revenue recognition
under Topic 606. The Company’s accounting policies did not
change materially as a result of applying the principles of revenue
recognition from Topic 606 and are largely consistent with existing
guidance and current practices applied by the Company. (See Note
3)
Reclassification
Certain
account balances from prior periods have been reclassified in these
condensed consolidated statements to conform to current period
classifications. Such reclassifications include a
presentation adjustment to increase the change in the inventory
reserve and to decrease the change in inventory in operating
activities on the condensed consolidated statement cash flows for
nine months ended September 30, 2018 by $1,530,000. This
reclassification did not affect net cash used in operating
activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 or any
changes to the financial statements or disclosures
herein.
Note 2. Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable
to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is
computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders
by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding during the period and the weighted-average number of
dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period,
using the treasury stock method. Dilutive common share equivalents
are comprised of stock options, restricted stock, warrants,
convertible preferred stock and common stock associated with the
Company's convertible notes based on the average stock price for
each period using the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive
shares are excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per
share when their effect is anti-dilutive. In periods where a net
loss is presented, all potentially dilutive securities are
anti-dilutive and are excluded from the computation of diluted net
loss per share.
Potentially dilutive securities for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2019 were 10,988,108. Potentially dilutive securities were 8,053,426 for
the three and nine months ended September 30,
2018.
The
calculation of diluted loss per share requires that, to the extent
the average market price of the underlying shares for the reporting
period exceeds the exercise price of the warrants and the presumed
exercise of such securities are dilutive to loss per share for the
period, an adjustment to net loss used in the calculation is
required to remove the change in fair value of the warrants, net of
tax from the numerator for the period. Likewise, an adjustment to
the denominator is required to reflect the related dilutive shares,
if any, under the treasury stock method. During the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded net of tax
gain of approximately $27,000 and $1,529,000, on the valuation of
the Warrant Derivative Liability which has a dilutive impact on
loss per share, respectively.

Note 3. Balance Sheet Account Detail
Inventory and Cost of Revenues
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value,
net of a valuation allowance. Cost is determined using the
first-in, first-out method. The Company records an inventory
reserve for estimated excess and obsolete inventory based upon
historical turnover, market conditions and assumptions about future
demand for its products. When applicable, expiration dates of
certain inventory items with a definite life are taken into
consideration.
Inventories consist of the following (in thousands):

transaction banking costs, warehouse labor costs and depreciation
on certain assets.
Leases
Generally, the Company leases certain office space, warehouses,
distribution centers, manufacturing centers, and equipment. A
contract is or contains a lease if the contract conveys the right
to control the use of identified property, plant, or equipment (an
identified asset) for a period of time in exchange for
consideration.
In general, the Company’s leases include one or more options
to renew, with renewal terms that generally vary from one to ten
years. The exercise of lease renewal options is generally at the
Company’s sole discretion. The depreciable life of assets and
leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term,
unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably
certain of exercise.
The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material
residual value guarantees or material restrictive
covenants.
Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are
not recorded on the Company’s condensed
consolidated balance sheets, and the Company does not separate
nonlease components from lease components. The Company’s
lease assets and liabilities recognized within its condensed
consolidated balance sheets were as follows (in

Finance lease right-of-use assets are amortized over their
estimated useful life, as the Company does believe that it is
reasonably certain that options which transfer ownership will be
exercised. In general, for the majority of the Company’s
material leases, the renewal options are not included in the
calculation of its right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, as
the Company does not believe that it is reasonably certain that
these renewal options will be exercised. Periodically, the Company
assesses its leases to determine whether it is reasonably certain
that these options and any renewal options could be reasonably
expected to be exercised.
The majority of the Company’s leases are for real estate and
equipment. In general, the individual lease contracts do not
provide information about the rate implicit in the lease. Because
the Company is not able to determine the rate implicit in its
leases, it instead generally uses its incremental borrowing rate to
determine the present value of lease liabilities. In determining
its incremental borrowing rate, the Company reviewed the terms of
its leases, its senior secured credit facility, swap rates, and
other factors. The weighted-average remaining lease term and
weighted-average discount rate used to calculate the present value
of lease liabilities are as follows:

Revenue Recognition
Direct Selling
Direct distribution sales are made through the Company’s
network (direct selling segment), which is a web-based global
network of customers and distributors. The Company’s
independent sales force markets a variety of products to an array
of customers, through friend-to-friend marketing and social
networking. The Company considers itself to be an e-commerce
company whereby personal interaction is provided to customers by
its independent sales network. Sales generated from direct
distribution includes; health and wellness, beauty product and skin
care, scrap booking and story booking items, packaged food products
and other service-based products.
Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies its performance
obligations under the contract. The Company recognizes revenue by
transferring the promised products to the customer, with revenue
recognized at shipping point, the point in time the customer
obtains control of the products. The majority of the
Company’s contracts have a single performance obligation and
are short term in nature. Sales taxes in domestic and foreign
jurisdictions are collected from customers and remitted to
governmental authorities, all at the local level, and are accounted
for on a net basis and therefore are excluded from
revenues.
Commercial Coffee - Roasted Coffee
The Company engages in the commercial sale of roasted coffee
through its subsidiary CLR, which is sold under a variety of
private labels through major national sales outlets and to
customers including cruise lines and office coffee service
operators, and under its own Café La Rica brand, Josie’s
Java House Brand, Javalution brands and Café Cachita as well
as through its distributor network within the direct selling
segment.
Revenue is recognized when the title and risk of loss is passed to
the customer under the terms of the shipping arrangement,
typically, FOB shipping point. At this point the customer has a
present obligation to pay, takes physical possession of the
product, takes legal title to the product, bears the risks and
rewards of ownership, and as such, revenue will be recognized at
this point in time. Sales taxes in domestic and foreign
jurisdictions are collected from customers and remitted to
governmental authorities, all at the local level, and are accounted
for on a net basis and therefore are excluded from
revenues.
Commercial Coffee - Green Coffee
The commercial coffee segment includes the sale of green coffee
beans, which are sourced from the Nicaraguan
rainforest.
Revenue is recognized when the title and risk of loss is passed to
the customer under the terms of the shipping arrangement,
typically, FOB shipping point. At this point the customer has a
present obligation to pay, takes physical possession of the
product, takes legal title to the product, bears the risks and
rewards of ownership, and as such, revenue will be recognized at
this point in time. Sales taxes in domestic and foreign
jurisdictions are collected from customers and remitted to
governmental authorities, all at the local level, and are accounted
for on a net basis and therefore are excluded from
revenues.
Commercial Hemp
The commercial hemp segment provides end to end extraction and
processing via the Company’s proprietary systems that allow
for the conversion of hemp feedstock into hemp oil and hemp
extracts. The primary focus of the segment is to generate
revenue through sales of extraction services and end to end
processing services for the conversion of hemp feedstock and hemp
oil into sellable ingredients. Additionally, the Company
offers various rental, sales, and service programs of the
Company’s extraction and processing systems.
Segment Revenue
The Company operates in three primary segments: the direct selling
segment where products are offered through a global distribution
network of preferred customers and distributors, the commercial
coffee segment where products are sold directly to businesses and
the commercial hemp segment.

Contract Balances
Timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of
invoicing to customers. The Company records contract assets when
performance obligations are satisfied prior to
invoicing.
Contract liabilities are reflected as deferred revenues in current
liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance
sheets and include deferred revenue and customer deposits. Contract
liabilities relate to payments invoiced or received in advance of
completion of performance obligations and are recognized as revenue
upon the fulfillment of performance obligations. Contract
liabilities are classified as short-term as all performance
obligations are expected to be satisfied within the next 12
months.
As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the balance in
deferred revenues was approximately $2,005,000 and $2,312,000,
respectively. The Company records deferred revenue related to its
direct selling segment which is primarily attributable to the
Heritage Makers product line and represents Heritage Maker’s
obligation for points purchased by customers that have not yet been
redeemed for product. In addition, deferred revenues include future
Company convention and distributor events.
Deferred revenue related to the commercial coffee segment
represents deposits on customer orders that have not yet been
completed and shipped. Revenue is recognized when the title and
risk of loss is passed to the customer under the terms of the
shipping arrangement FOB shipping point. (See Note 1)
Of the
deferred revenue balance as of the year ended December 31, 2018,
the Company recognized revenue of approximately $338,000 and
$1,070,000 from the Heritage Makers product line during the three
and nine months ended September 30. 2019, respectively. The company
recognized approximately $228,000 of deferred revenue from the
direct selling segment for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2019.
There
were no deferred revenues recognized with the commercial coffee or
the commercial hemp segments for the nine months ended September
30, 2019.
Note 4. Acquisitions and Business Combinations
The Company accounts for business combinations under the
acquisition method and allocates the total purchase price for
acquired businesses to the tangible and identified intangible
assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their estimated
fair values. When a business combination includes the exchange of
the Company’s common stock, the value of the common stock is
determined using the closing market price as of the date such
shares were tendered to the selling parties. The fair values
assigned to tangible and identified intangible assets acquired and
liabilities assumed are based on management or third-party
estimates and assumptions that utilize established valuation
techniques appropriate for the Company’s industry and each
acquired business. Goodwill is recorded as the excess, if any, of
the aggregate fair value of consideration exchanged for an acquired
business over the fair value (measured as of the acquisition date)
of total net tangible and identified intangible assets acquired. A
liability for contingent consideration, if applicable, is recorded
at fair value as of the acquisition date. In determining the fair
value of such contingent consideration, management estimates the
amount to be paid based on probable outcomes and expectations on
financial performance of the related acquired business. The fair
value of contingent consideration is reassessed quarterly, with any
change in the estimated value charged to operations in the period
of the change. Increases or decreases in the fair value of the
contingent consideration obligations can result from changes in
actual or estimated revenue streams, discount periods, discount
rates and probabilities that contingencies will be
met.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company
entered into one acquisition, which is detailed below. The
acquisition was conducted in an effort to expand the
Company’s operations into the field of commercial hemp
business.
2019 Acquisitions
Khrysos Global, Inc.
On February 12, 2019, the Company and Khrysos Industries, Inc., a
Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company
(“KII”) entered into an Asset and Equity Purchase
Agreement (the “AEPA”) with, Khrysos Global, Inc., a
Florida corporation (“Seller”), Leigh Dundore
(“LD”), and Dwayne Dundore (the “Representing
Party”) for KII to acquire substantially all the assets of
Seller and all the outstanding equity of INXL Laboratories, Inc., a
Florida corporation (“INXL”) and INX Holdings, Inc., a
Florida corporation (“INXH”). The business of the
Seller, INXL and INXH collectively, acquired by the Company
provides end to end extraction and processing via proprietary
systems that allow for the conversion of hemp feedstock into hemp
oil and hemp extracts. Additionally, KII offers various
rental, sales, and service programs of KII’s extraction and
processing systems.
The consideration payable for the assets of the Seller and the
equity of INXL and INXH is an aggregate of $16,000,000, to be paid
as set forth under the terms of the AEPA and allocated between the
Seller and LD in such manner as they determine at their
discretion.
At closing, Seller, LD and the Representing Party received an
aggregate of 1,794,972 shares of the Company’s common stock
which have a value of $14,000,000 for the purposes of the AEPA or
$12,649,000 fair value for the acquisition valuation and $500,000
in cash. Thereafter, the Company agreed to pay the Seller, LD and
the Representing Party an aggregate of: $500,000 in cash thirty
(30) days following the date of closing; $250,000 in cash ninety
(90) days following the date of closing; $250,000 in cash one
hundred and eighty (180) days following the date of closing;
$250,000 in cash two hundred and seventy (270) days following the
date of closing; and $250,000 in cash one (1) year following
the date of closing.
In addition, the Company agreed to issue to Representing Party,
subject to the approval of the holders of at least a majority of
the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common
stock and the approval of The Nasdaq Stock Market (collectively,
the “Contingent Consideration Warrants”) consisting of
six (6) six-year warrants, to purchase 500,000 shares of common
stock each, for an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of common stock at
an exercise price of $10 per share exercisable upon reaching
certain levels of cumulative revenue or cumulative net income
before taxes by the business during any of the years ending
December 31, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023 or 2024.
The AEPA contains customary representations, warranties and
covenants of the Company, KII, the Seller, LD and the Representing
Party. Subject to certain customary limitations, the Seller, LD and
the Representing Party have agreed to indemnify the Company and KII
against certain losses related to, among other things, breaches of
the Seller’s, LD’s and the Representing Party’s
representations and warranties, certain specified liabilities and
the failure to perform covenants or obligations under the
AEPA.
On February 28, 2019, KII purchased a 45-acre tract of land in
Groveland, Florida, upon which KII intends to build a R&D
facility, greenhouse and allocate a portion for
farming.
The Company has estimated fair value (in thousands) at the date of
acquisition of the acquired tangible and intangible assets and
liabilities as follows (unaudited):

The preliminary estimated fair value of intangible assets acquired
in the amount of $8,461,000 was determined through the use of a
third-party valuation firm using various income and cost approach
methodologies. Specifically, the intangibles identified in the
acquisition were trademarks and trade name, customer-related
intangible and non-compete agreement. The trademarks and trade
name, customer-related intangible and non-compete are being
amortized over their estimated useful life of 8 years, 7 years and
6 years, respectively. The straight-line method is being used and
is believed to approximate the time-line within which the economic
benefit of the underlying intangible asset will be
realized.
Goodwill of $4,353,000 was recognized as the excess purchase price
over the acquisition-date fair value of net assets acquired.
Goodwill is estimated to represent the synergistic values expected
to be realized from the combination of the two businesses. The
goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax
purposes.
The Contingent Consideration Warrants discussed above are subject
to vesting based upon the achievement of various sales milestones
and only if the sellers do not terminate their services. As
such, the Contingent Consideration Warrants were considered
equity-based compensation for future services and not considered
contingent consideration in the calculation of the purchase
price.
The costs related to the acquisition are included in legal and
accounting fees and were expensed as incurred.
Revenues from the commercial hemp segment included in the condensed
consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2019 were approximately $184,000 and $525,000,
respectively.
Note 5. Intangible Assets and Goodwill
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are comprised of distributor organizations,
trademarks and tradenames, customer relationships, internally
developed software and non-compete agreement. The
Company's acquired intangible assets, which are subject to
amortization over their estimated useful lives, are reviewed for
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of an intangible asset may not be
recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying
amount of an intangible asset exceeds its fair value.
Intangible assets consist of the following (in

Amortization expense related to intangible assets was approximately
$1,249,000 and $724,000 for the three months ended September 30,
2019 and 2018, respectively. Amortization expense related to
intangible assets was approximately $2,505,000 and $2,416,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018,
respectively.
During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company
recorded an impairment of intangible assets of $2,200,000 in
conjunction with our 2017 acquisition of BeautiControl. In
determining the fair value of the assets acquired and the purchase
price, initially it was based on a number of products to be made
available to the Company through collaboration with the seller, and
ensuring active participation by BeautiControl’s distributor
organization. Delays in the Company’s ability to access many
key products substantially reduced the potential to deliver the
revenues initially anticipated. As
a result of this, when the Company re-assessed the contingent
liability as of September 30, 2018 the Company recorded an
adjustment to reduce the contingent liability by approximately
$2,200,000 and recorded a corresponding reduction to the contingent
liability revaluation expense included in general and
administrative expense. The
Company also determined that the underlying intangible assets were
impaired and recorded an adjustment to reduce the related
intangible assets of approximately $2,200,000 resulting in a
corresponding loss on impairment on the Company’s condensed
statements of operations for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2018.
Trademarks and trade names, which do not have legal, regulatory,
contractual, competitive, economic, or other factors that limit the
useful lives are considered indefinite lived assets and are not
amortized but are tested for impairment on an annual basis or
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable. As of
September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, approximately $1,649,000
in trademarks and trade names from business combinations have been
identified as having indefinite lives.
Goodwill
Goodwill is recorded as the excess, if any, of the aggregate fair
value of consideration exchanged for an acquired business over the
fair value (measured as of the acquisition date) of total net
tangible and identified intangible assets acquired. In accordance
with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic
350, “Intangibles —
Goodwill and Other”, goodwill and other intangible assets with
indefinite lives are not amortized but are tested for impairment on
an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be
recoverable. The Company conducts annual reviews for goodwill and
indefinite-lived intangible assets in the fourth quarter or
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amounts of the assets may not be fully
recoverable.
The Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether
it is more likely than not (a likelihood of more than 50%) that
goodwill is impaired. After considering the totality of events and
circumstances, the Company determines whether it is more likely
than not that goodwill is not impaired. If impairment is
indicated, then the Company conducts the two-step impairment
testing process. The first step compares the Company’s fair
value to its net book value. If the fair value is less than the net
book value, the second step of the test compares the implied fair
value of the Company’s goodwill to its carrying amount. If
the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, the
Company would recognize an impairment loss equal to that excess
amount. The testing is generally performed at the “reporting
unit” level. A reporting unit is the operating segment, or a
business one level below that operating segment (referred to as a
component) if discrete financial information is prepared and
regularly reviewed by management at the component level. The
Company has determined that its reporting units for goodwill
impairment testing are the Company’s reportable segments. As
such, the Company analyzes its goodwill balances separately for the
commercial coffee reporting unit, the direct selling reporting unit
and the commercial hemp reporting unit. The goodwill balance as of
September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 is approximately
$10,676,000 and $6,323,000, respectively. There were no triggering
events indicating impairment of goodwill or intangible assets
during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and
2018.

Note 6. Notes Payable and Other Debt
Short-term Debt
On July 18, 2018, the Company entered into lending agreements (the
“Lending Agreements”) with three (3) separate entities
and received loans in the total amount of $1,907,000, net of loan
fees to be paid back over an eight-month period on a monthly
basis. Payments were comprised of principal and accrued interest
with an effective interest rate between 15% and 20%. The
Company’s outstanding balance related to the Lending
Agreements was approximately $504,000 as of December 31, 2018 and
was included in other current liabilities on the Company’s
balance sheet as of December 31, 2018. In March 2019 the loans were
paid in full.
Notes Payable
Promissory
Notes
On
March 18, 2019, the Company entered into a two-year Secured
Promissory Note (the “8% Note” or “Notes”)
with two (2) accredited investors that had a substantial
pre-existing relationship with the Company pursuant to which the
Company raised cash proceeds of $2,000,000. The Company also issued
20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock par value $0.001
for each $1,000,000 invested and a five-year warrant to purchase
20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price per
share of $6.00. The 8% Notes pay
interest at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum and interest is
paid quarterly in arrears with all principal and unpaid interest
due at maturity on March 18, 2021.
The Company recorded debt discounts of approximately $139,000
related to the fair value of warrants issued in the transaction and
$212,000 of transaction issuance costs to be amortized to interest
expense over the life of the Notes. The Company recorded
approximately $41,000 and $83,000 amortization of the debt
discounts during the three and nine months ended September 30,
2019, respectively and is recorded as interest expense in
the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of September 30, 2019, the remaining balance
of the debt discount is approximately $269,000.
Credit
Note
On
December 13, 2018, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary,
CLR, entered into a credit agreement with Mr. Carl Grover pursuant
to which CLR borrowed $5,000,000 from Mr. Grover and in exchange
issued to him a $5,000,000 credit note (the “Credit
Note”) secured by its green coffee inventory under a security
agreement, dated December 13, 2018, with Mr. Grover and CLR’s
subsidiary, Siles.
The
Credit Note accrues interest at eight percent (8%) per annum. All
principal and accrued interest under the Credit Note is due and
payable on December 12, 2020. The Credit Note contains customary
events of default including the Company or Siles failure to pay its
obligations, commencing bankruptcy or liquidation proceedings, and
breach of representations and warranties. Upon the occurrence of an
event of default, the unpaid balance of the principal amount of the
Credit Note together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon,
may become, or may be declared to be, due and payable by Mr. Grover
and shall bear interest from the due date until such amounts are
paid at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum. In connection with
the Credit Agreement, the Company issued to Mr. Grover a four-year
warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of its common stock, exercisable
at $6.82 per share (“Warrant 1”), and a four-year
warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of its common stock, exercisable
at $7.82 per share (“Warrant 2”).
Also in
connection with the Credit Note, the Company also entered into an
advisory agreement with a third party not affiliated with Mr.
Grover, pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay to the advisor
a 3% fee on the transaction with Mr. Grover and issued to the
advisor (or it’s designees) a four-year warrant to purchase
50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, exercisable at
$6.33 per share.
All
fees, warrants and costs paid to Mr. Grover and the advisor and all
direct costs incurred by the Company are recognized as a debt
discount to the funded Credit Note and are amortized to interest
expense using the effective interest method over the term of the
Credit Note. The Company recognized an initial debt discount of
approximately $1,469,000 related to the initial fair value of
warrants issued in the transaction and $175,000 of transaction
issuance costs. The Company recognized approximately $182,000 and
$503,000 amortization of the debt discount during the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, which was
included in interest expense in the condensed consolidated
statements of operations. As of September 30, 2019, the remaining
unamortized debt discount is approximately $1,111,000.
2400 Boswell Mortgage
In March 2013, the Company acquired 2400 Boswell for approximately
$4,600,000. 2400 Boswell is the owner and lessor of the building
occupied by the Company for its corporate office and warehouse in
Chula Vista, California. The purchase was from an immediate family
member of our Chief Executive Officer and consisted of
approximately $248,000 in cash, $334,000 of debt forgiveness and
accrued interest, and a promissory note of approximately $393,000,
payable in equal payments over 5 years with interest at
5.0%. Additionally, the Company assumed a long-term
mortgage of $3,625,000, payable over 25 years with an initial
interest rate of 5.75%. The interest rate is the prime rate plus
2.5%. As of September 30, 2019, the interest rate was 8.0%. The
lender will adjust the interest rate on the first calendar day of
each change period. The Company and its Chief Executive Officer are
both co-guarantors of the mortgage. As of September 30, 2019, the
balance on the long-term mortgage is approximately $3,162,000 and
the balance on the promissory note is zero.
M2C Purchase Agreement
In March 2007, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase
certain assets of M2C Global, Inc., a Nevada corporation, for
$4,500,000. The agreement required payments totaling
$500,000 in three installments during 2007, followed by monthly
payments in the amount of 10% of the sales related to the acquired
assets until the entire note balance is paid. As of September
30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the carrying value of the liability
was approximately $1,037,000 and $1,071,000, respectively. The
interest associated with the note for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 was minimal.
Khrysos Mortgage Notes
In conjunction with the Company’s acquisition of Khrysos, the
Company assumed an interest only mortgage in the amount of
$350,000, due in September 2021, and bears an interest rate of
8.0%. In addition, the Company assumed a mortgage of approximately
$177,000, due in June 2023, and bears an interest rate of 7.0% per
annum. As of September 30, 2019, the remaining aggregate mortgage
balance is approximately $525,000.
In February 2019, Khrysos purchased a 45-acre tract of land in
Groveland, Florida, for $750,000, upon which Khrysos intends to
build a R&D facility, greenhouse and allocate a portion for
farming. Khrysos paid approximately $303,000 as a down payment and
assumed a mortgage of $450,000. The entire balance is due in
February 2024 and bears interest at 6.0% per annum. As of September
30, 2019, the remaining mortgage balance is approximately
$443,000.
Khrysos Acquisition Liability Payable
In conjunction with the Company’s acquisition of Khrysos, the
Company agreed to pay the sellers in cash $2,000,000 towards the
AEPA with an initial payment of $500,000 which was paid at closing
in February 2019. Thereafter, the sellers are to receive an
aggregate of: $500,000 in cash thirty (30) days following the date
of closing; $250,000 in cash ninety (90) days following the date of
closing; $250,000 in cash one hundred and eighty (180) days
following the Date of closing; $250,000 in cash two hundred and
seventy (270) days following the date of closing; and $250,000 in
cash one (1) year following the date of closing. As of
September 30, 2019, the Company’s remaining liability of
$1,000,000 is outstanding and is recorded on the balance sheet in
accrued expenses. (See Note 4)
Other
Notes
The Company’s other notes relate to loans for commercial vans
at CLR in the amount of approximately $79,000 as of September 30,
2019, which mature at various dates through 2023.
Line of Credit - Loan and Security Agreement
On November 16, 2017, CLR entered into a Loan and Security
Agreement (“Agreement”) with Crestmark Bank
(“Crestmark”) providing for a line of credit related to
accounts receivables resulting from sales of certain products that
includes borrowings to be advanced against acceptable eligible
inventory related to CLR. Effective December 29, 2017, CLR entered
into a First Amendment to the Agreement, to include an increase in
the maximum overall borrowing to $6,250,000. The loan amount may
not exceed an amount which is the lesser of (a) $6,250,000 or (b)
the sum of up (i) to 85% of the value of the eligible accounts;
plus, (ii) the lesser of $1,000,000 or 50% of eligible inventory or
50% of (i) above, plus (iii) the lesser of $250,000 or eligible
inventory or 75% of certain specific inventory identified within
the Agreement.
The Agreement contains certain financial and nonfinancial covenants
with which the Company must comply to maintain its borrowing
availability and avoid penalties. As of September 30, 2019, the
Company is in compliance with all financial and nonfinancial
covenants.
The outstanding principal balance of the Agreement will bear
interest based upon a year of 360 days with interest being charged
for each day the principal amount is outstanding including the date
of actual payment. The interest rate is a rate equal to the prime
rate plus 2.50% with a floor of 6.75%. As of September 30,
2019, the interest rate was 7.5%. In addition, other fees are
incurred for the maintenance of the loan in accordance with the
Agreement. Other fees may be incurred in the event the minimum loan
balance of $2,000,000 is not maintained. The Agreement is effective
until November 16, 2020.
The Company and the Company’s CEO, Stephan Wallach, have
entered into a Corporate Guaranty and Personal Guaranty,
respectively, with Crestmark guaranteeing payments in the event
that the Company’s commercial coffee segment CLR were to
default. In addition, the Company’s President and Chief
Financial Officer, David Briskie, personally entered into a
Guaranty of Validity representing the Company’s financial
statements so long as the indebtedness is owing to Crestmark,
maintaining certain covenants and guarantees.
The Company’s outstanding line of credit liability related to
the Agreement was approximately $1,981,000 as of September 30, 2019
and $2,256,000 as of December 31, 2018.
Contingent Acquisition Debt
The Company has contingent acquisition debt associated with its
business combinations. The Company accounts for business
combinations under the acquisition method and allocates the total
purchase price for acquired businesses to the tangible and
identified intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed,
based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. A
liability for contingent consideration, if applicable, is recorded
at fair value as of the acquisition date and evaluated each period
for changes in the fair value and adjusted as
appropriate.
The Company’s contingent acquisition debt as of September 30,
2019 and December 31, 2018 is approximately $7,017,000 and
$8,261,000, respectively, and is attributable to debt associated
with the Company’s direct selling segment. (See Note

July 2014 Private Placement
Between July 31, 2014 and September 10, 2014 the Company entered
into Note Purchase Agreements (the “2014 Note” or
“2014 Notes”) related to its private placement offering
(“2014 Private Placement”) with seven accredited
investors pursuant to which the Company raised aggregate gross
proceeds of $4,750,000 and sold units consisting of five (5) year
senior secured convertible note in the aggregate principal amount
of $4,750,000 that are convertible into 678,568 shares of our
common stock, at a conversion price of $7.00 per share, and
warrants to purchase 929,346 shares of common stock at an exercise
price of $4.60 per share. The 2014 Notes bore interest at a rate of
eight percent (8%) per annum and interest is paid quarterly in
arrears with all principal and unpaid interest due between July and
September 2019.
The Company had the right to prepay the 2014 Notes at any time
after the one-year anniversary date of the issuance of the 2014
Notes at a rate equal to 110% of the then outstanding principal
balance and any unpaid accrued interest. The 2014 Notes are secured
by Company pledged assets and rank senior to all debt of the
Company other than certain senior debt that has been previously
identified as senior to the convertible
notes. Additionally,
Stephan Wallach, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, has
also personally guaranteed the repayment of the 2014 Notes, subject
to the terms of a Guaranty Agreement executed by him with the
investors. In addition, Mr. Wallach has agreed not to
sell, transfer or pledge 1.5 million shares of the common stock
that he owns so long as his personal guaranty is in
effect.
On October 23, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement with
Carl Grover to exchange (the “Debt Exchange”), subject
to stockholder approval which was received on December 6, 2018, all
amounts owed under the 2014 Note held by him in the principal
amount of $4,000,000 which matures on July 30, 2019, for 747,664
shares of the Company’s common stock, at a conversion price
of $5.35 per share and a four-year warrant to purchase 631,579
shares of common stock at an exercise price of $4.75 per
share. Upon the closing the Company issued Ascendant
Alternative Strategies, LLC, a FINRA broker dealer (or its
designees), which acted as the Company’s advisor in
connection with a Debt Exchange transaction, 30,000 shares of
common stock in accordance with an advisory agreement and four-year
warrants to purchase 80,000 shares of common stock at an exercise
price of $5.35 per share and four-year warrants to purchase 70,000
shares of common stock at an exercise price of $4.75 per
share.
The Company considered the guidance of ASC 470-20,
Debt: Debt with Conversion and Other
Options and ASC 470-60,
Debt: Debt Troubled Debt
Restructuring by Debtors and concluded that the 2014 Note held by Mr.
Grover should be recognized as a debt modification for an induced
conversion of convertible debt under the guidance of ASC 470-20.
The Company recognized all remaining unamortized discounts of
approximately $679,000 immediately subsequent to October 23, 2018
as interest expense, and the fair value of the warrants and
additional shares issued as discussed above were recorded as a loss
on the Debt Exchange in the amount of $4,706,000 during the year
ended December 31, 2018 with the corresponding entry recorded to
equity.
In 2014, the Company initially recorded debt discounts of
$4,750,000 related to the beneficial conversion feature and related
detachable warrants. The beneficial conversion feature discount and
the detachable warrants discount are amortized to interest expense
over the life of the Notes. The unamortized debt discounts
recognized with the Debt Exchange was approximately $679,000. As of
September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 the remaining balance of
the debt discounts was approximately zero and $94,000,
respectively. The Company recorded approximately $94,000 and
$713,000 amortization of the debt discounts during the nine months
ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and is recorded as
interest expense.
With respect to the 2014 Private Placement, the Company paid
approximately $490,000 in expenses including placement
agent fees. The issuance costs are amortized to interest
expense over the term of the 2014 Notes. The unamortized issuance
costs recognized with the Debt Exchange was approximately $63,000.
As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 the remaining
balance of the issuance costs is approximately zero and $10,000,
respectively. The Company recorded approximately $10,000 and
$73,000 of the debt discounts amortization during the nine months
ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and is recorded as
interest expense.
During the three months ended September 30, 2019, the Company
extended the maturity date of one of the 2014 Notes for one year,
with interest being paid under the original terms of the 2014 Note.
All other 2014 Notes have been settled. As of September 30, 2019
and December 31, 2018 the principal amount of $25,000 and $750,000
remains outstanding. (See Note 10)
January 2019 Private Placement
Between
February 15, 2019 and July 12, 2019, the Company closed five
tranches related to the January 2019 Private Placement debt
offering, pursuant to which the Company offered for sale up to
$10,000,000 in principal amount of notes (the “2019 PIPE
Notes”), with each investor receiving 2,000 shares of common
stock for each $100,000 invested. The Company entered into
subscription agreements with thirty-one (31) accredited investors
that had a substantial pre-existing relationship with the Company
pursuant to which the Company received aggregate gross proceeds of
$3,090,000 and issued 2019 PIPE Notes in the aggregate principal
amount of $3,090,000 and an aggregate of 61,800 shares of common
stock. The placement agent received 15,450 shares of common stock
for the closed tranches. Each 2019 PIPE Note matures 24 months
after issuance, bears interest at a rate of six percent (6%) per
annum, and the outstanding principal is convertible into shares of
common stock at any time after the 180th day anniversary of the
issuance of the 2019 PIPE Notes, at a conversion price of $10 per
share (subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends and
reclassification of the common stock).
Upon issuance of the 2019 PIPE Notes, the Company recognized debt
discounts of approximately $671,000, resulting from the allocated
portion of offering proceeds to the separable common stock
issuance. The debt discount is being amortized to interest expense
over the term of the 2019 PIPE Notes. During the nine
months ended September 30, 2019 the Company recorded approximately
$172,000 of amortization related to the debt
discounts.
Note 8. Derivative Liability
The Company recognizes and measures warrants in accordance
with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and
Hedging. The accounting
guidance sets forth a two-step model to be applied in determining
whether a financial instrument is indexed to an entity’s own
stock, which would qualify such financial instruments for a scope
exception. This scope exception specifies that a contract that
would otherwise meet the definition of a derivative financial
instrument would not be considered as such if the contract is both
(i) indexed to the entity’s own stock and
(ii) classified in the stockholders’ equity section of
the entity’s balance sheet. The Company determined
that certain warrants and embedded conversion features issued in
the Company’s private placements are ineligible for equity
classification due to anti-dilution provisions set forth
therein.
Derivative liabilities are recorded at their estimated fair value
(see Note 9) at the issuance date and are revalued at each
subsequent reporting date. The Company will continue to revalue the
derivative liability on each subsequent balance sheet date until
the securities to which the derivative liabilities relate to are
exercised or expire.
Various factors are considered in the pricing models the Company
uses to value the derivative liabilities, including its current
stock price, the remaining life, the volatility of its stock price,
and the risk-free interest rate. Future changes in these factors
may have a significant impact on the computed fair value of the
liability. As such, the Company expects future changes in the fair
values to continue and may vary significantly from period to
period. The warrant and embedded liability and revaluations
have not had a cash impact on working capital, liquidity or
business operations.
Warrants
Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU No. 2017-11 (see
above, Recently Adopted
Accounting Pronouncements). The new guidance requires companies to exclude any
down round feature when determining whether a freestanding
equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option)
is considered indexed to the entity’s own stock when applying
the classification guidance in ASC 815-40. Upon adoption of the new
guidance, existing equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded
conversion options) with down round features must be reassessed as
liability classification may no longer be required. As a result,
the Company determined in regard to its 2018 warrants the
appropriate treatment of these warrants that were initially
classified as derivative liabilities should now be classified as
equity instruments.
The Company determined that the liability associated with the 2018
warrants should be remeasured and adjusted to fair value on the
date of the change in classification with the offset to be recorded
through earnings and then the fair value of the warrants should be
reclassified to equity. The Company recorded the change in the
fair value of the 2018 warrants as of the date of change in
classification on March 11, 2019 to earnings. The fair value of the
2018 warrants as of the date of change in classification, in the
amount of $1,494,000 was reclassified from warrant derivative
liability to additional paid in capital as a result of the change
in classification of the warrants.
Increases
or decreases in the fair value of the derivative liability are
included as a component of total other expense in the accompanying
condensed consolidated statements of operations for the respective
period. The changes to the derivative liability for warrants
resulted in a decrease of $2,457,000 and an increase of $5,538,000
for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018,
respectively. The changes to the derivative liability for warrants
resulted in a decrease of $4,344,000 and an increase of $4,634,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018,
respectively.
The estimated fair value of the outstanding warrant liabilities is
$2,699,000 and $9,216,000 as of September 30, 2019 and December 31,
2018, respectively.
The estimated fair value of the warrants was computed as of
September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 using the Monte Carlo
option pricing model with the following assumptions:

In addition, management assessed the probabilities of future
financing assumptions in the valuation models.
Note 9. Fair Value of Financial
Instruments
Fair value measurements are performed in accordance with the
guidance provided by ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements
and Disclosures.” ASC Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that
would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at
the measurement date. Where available, fair value is based on
observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices
or parameters. Where observable prices or parameters are not
available, valuation models are applied.
ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an
entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the
use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Assets and
liabilities recorded at fair value in the financial statements are
categorized based upon the hierarchy of levels of judgment
associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value.
Hierarchical levels directly related to the amount of subjectivity
associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and
liabilities, are as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to
access.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included
in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and
liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or
similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or
other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by
observable market data.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supportable by little
or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of
the asset or liability.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments,
including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts
payable and accrued liabilities, capital lease obligations and
deferred revenue approximate their fair values based on their
short-term nature. The carrying amount of the Company’s
long-term notes payable approximates its fair value based on
interest rates available to the Company for similar debt
instruments and similar remaining maturities.
The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration related to
the Company's business combinations is recorded using significant
unobservable measures and other fair value inputs and is therefore
classified as a Level 3 financial instrument.
The following table details the fair value measurement within the
fair value hierarchy of the Company’s financial instruments,
which includes the Level 3 liabilities (in thousands):

The fair value of the contingent acquisition liabilities is
evaluated each reporting period using projected revenues, discount
rates, and projected timing of revenues. Projected contingent
payment amounts are discounted back to the current period using a
discount rate. Projected revenues are based on the Company’s
most recent internal operational budgets and long-range strategic
plans. Increases in projected revenues will result in higher fair
value measurements. Increases in discount rates and the time to
payment will result in lower fair value measurements. Increases
(decreases) in any of those inputs in isolation may result in a
significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. During the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the net adjustment
to the fair value of the contingent acquisition debt was a decrease
of approximately $478,000 and approximately $911,000, respectively,
and is included in the
Company’s statements of operations in general and
administrative expense. During the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2018, the net adjustment to the fair value of the
contingent acquisition debt was a decrease of approximately
$2,618,000 and approximately $4,076,000,
respectively.
Note 10. Stockholders’ Equity
The Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended,
authorizes the issuance of two classes of stock to be designated;
“Common Stock” and “Preferred
Stock”.
The
total number of shares of stock which the Company has authority to
issue is 50,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per
share and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per
share, of which 161,135 shares have been designated as Series A
convertible preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share
(“Series A Convertible Preferred Stock”), 1,052,631 has
been designated as Series B convertible preferred stock
(“Series B Convertible Preferred Stock”), 700,000 has
been designated as Series C convertible preferred stock
(“Series C Convertible Preferred Stock”) and 460,000
has been designated as Series D cumulative redeemable perpetual
preferred stock (“Series D Cumulative Preferred
Stock”).
Common Stock
As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 there were
30,270,360 and 25,760,708 shares of common stock outstanding,
respectively. The holders of the common stock are
entitled to one vote for each share held at all meetings of
stockholders (and written actions in lieu of
meetings).
Stock Offering
On
February 7, 2019, the Company entered into a securities purchase
agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with one
accredited investor that had a substantial pre-existing
relationship with the Company pursuant to which the Company sold
250,000 shares of common stock at an offering price of $7.00 per
share. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company also issued
to the investor a three-year warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of
common stock at an exercise price of $7.00. The gross proceeds were
$1,750,000. Consulting fees to the Placement Agent for arranging
the Purchase Agreement included the issuance of 5,000 shares of
restricted shares of the Company’s common stock, and
three-year warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of common stock
expiring in February 2022 priced at $10.00. The Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing
model to estimate the fair value of the warrants issued to the
selling agent to be $324,000 at the time of issuance as direct
issuance costs and recorded in equity. No cash commissions
were paid.
Between
February 15, 2019 and July 12, 2019, the Company closed five
tranches related to the 2019 January Private Placement debt
offering, pursuant to which the Company offered for up to a maximum
of $10,000,000 in principal amount of notes (the “2019 PIPE
Notes”), with each investor receiving in addition to a 2019
PIPE Notes, 2,000 shares of common stock for each $100,000
invested. The Company entered into subscription agreements with
thirty-one (31) accredited investors that had a substantial
pre-existing relationship with the Company pursuant to which the
Company received aggregate gross proceeds of $3,090,000 and issued
2019 PIPE Notes in the aggregate principal amount of $3,090,000 and
an aggregate of 61,800 shares of common stock. The placement agent
received 15,450 shares of common stock for the closed tranches.
Each 2019 PIPE Note matures 24 months after issuance, bears
interest at a rate of six percent (6%) per annum, and the
outstanding principal is convertible into shares of common stock at
any time after the 180th day anniversary of the issuance of the
2019 PIPE Note, at a conversion price of $10.00 per share (subject
to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends and
reclassification of the common stock).
On
March 18, 2019, the Company issued 8% Notes to two accredited
investors that the Company had a substantial pre-existing
relationship with and from whom the Company raised cash proceeds in
the aggregate of $2,000,000. In addition to the 8% Notes, the
Company issued 20,000 shares of common stock for each $1,000,000
invested as well as for each $1,000,000 invested five-year warrants
to purchase 20,000 shares of common stock at a price per share of
$6.00. The 8% Notes pay interest at a
rate of eight percent (8%) per annum and interest is paid quarterly
in arrears with all principal and unpaid interest due at maturity
on March 18, 2021. The Company issued an aggregate of 40,000 shares
of common stock and warrants to purchase an aggregate of 40,000
shares of common stock with the 8% Notes in the principal amount of
$2,000,000.
On June
17, 2019, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement
with one accredited investor that had a substantial pre-existing
relationship with the Company pursuant to which the Company sold
250,000 shares of common stock at an offering price of $5.50 per
share. The gross proceeds were $1,375,000. The Company did not pay
consulting fees in this transaction.
Issuance of additional common shares and repricing of warrants
related to 2018 Private Placement
On
March 13, 2019, the Company determined that three of the investors
of the Company’s August 2018 Private Placement became
eligible to receive additional shares of the Company’s common
stock as it was referred to in their respective Purchase Agreement
as True-up Shares. Total number of additional shares issued to
those three investors was 44,599 shares of the Company’s
common stock. In addition, the exercise price of the warrants
issued at their respective closings is reset pursuant to the terms
of the warrants to exercise prices ranging from $4.06 to $4.44 from
the exercise price at issuance of $4.75.
Convertible Preferred Stock
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
The Company has 161,135 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock outstanding as of September 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018
and accrued dividends of approximately $3,000 and $137,000,
respectively. The holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock are entitled to receive a cumulative dividend at a rate of
8.0% per year, payable annually either in cash or shares of the
Company's common stock at the Company's election. Each share of
Series A Convertible Preferred is convertible into common stock at
a conversion rate of 0.10. The holders of Series A Convertible
Preferred are entitled to receive payments upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the Company before any amount is paid
to the holders of common stock. The holders of Series A Convertible
Preferred have no voting rights, except as required by
law.
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock
On March 30, 2018, the Company completed the Series B Offering,
pursuant to which the Company sold 381,173 shares of Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock at an offering price of $9.50 per share
and received gross proceeds in aggregate of approximately
$3,621,000. The net proceeds to the Company from the Series B
Offering were approximately $3,289,000 after deducting commissions,
closing and issuance costs. Each share of Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock is initially convertible at any time, in whole or
in part, at the option of the holders, at an initial conversion
price of $4.75 per share, into two (2) shares of common stock and
automatically converts into two (2) shares of common stock on its
two-year anniversary of issuance. Holders of the Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock have no voting rights, except as
required by law.
The Company has 129,332 and 129,437 shares of Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock outstanding as of September 30, 2019 and December
31, 2018, respectively. The holders of the Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock are entitled to receive cumulative dividends on the
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock from the date of original
issue at a rate of 5.0% per annum payable quarterly in arrears
on or about the last day of March, June, September and December of
each year, beginning June 30, 2018. The Company’s
board of directors has declared an annual cash dividend of $0.48
per share or a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share on the Series
B Convertible Preferred Stock. As of
December 31, 2018, accrued dividends were approximately
$11,000. As of September 30, 2019, accrued dividends were
approximately $15,000, payable to shareholders of record as of
September 30, 2019, which was paid October 2, 2019.
Series C Convertible Preferred Stock
Between August 17, 2018 and October 4, 2018, the Company closed
three tranches of its Series C Offering, pursuant to which the
Company sold 697,363 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock
at an offering price of $9.50 per share and agreed to issue
two-year warrants (the “Preferred Warrants”) to
purchase up to 1,394,726 shares of the Company’s common stock
at an exercise price of $4.75 per share to Series C Preferred
holders that voluntarily convert their shares of Series C
Convertible Preferred Stock to the Company’s common stock
within two-years from the issuance date. Each share of Series
C Convertible Preferred Stock was initially convertible at any
time, in whole or in part, at the option of the holders, at an
initial conversion price of $4.75 per share, into two (2) shares of
common stock and was automatically convertible into two (2) shares
of common stock on its two-year anniversary of
issuance.
The Company issued the placement agent in connection with the
Series C Offering 116,867 warrants as compensation, exercisable at
$4.75 per share and expire in December 2020. The Company determined
that the warrants should be classified as equity instruments and
used Black-Scholes to estimate the fair value of the warrants
issued to the placement agent of $458,000 as of the issuance date
December 19, 2018.
The Company received aggregate gross proceeds totaling
approximately $6,625,000. The net proceeds to the Company from the
Series C Offering were approximately $6,236,000 after deducting
commissions, closing and issuance costs.
Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, each
holder of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock was entitled to
receive a distribution, to be paid in an amount equal to $9.50 for
each and every share of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock held
by the holders of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, plus all
accrued and unpaid dividends in preference to any distribution or
payments made or any asset distributed to the holders of common
stock, the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, the Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock or any other class or series of stock
ranking junior to the Series C Convertible Preferred
Stock.
The shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock issued in the
Series C Offering were sold pursuant to the Company’s
Registration Statement, which was declared effective with the SEC
on December 10, 2018.
Pursuant to the Certificate of Designation, the Company agreed to
pay cumulative dividends on the Series C Convertible Preferred
Stock from the date of original issue at a rate of 6.0% per
annum payable quarterly in arrears on or about the last day of
March, June, September and December of each year, beginning
September 30, 2018. In 2018, a total of approximately $51,000 of
dividends was paid to the holders of the Series C Convertible
Preferred Stock. The Series C Convertible Preferred Stock ranked
senior to the Company’s outstanding Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock, Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and the
common stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon
liquidation, dissolution or winding up. Holders of the Series C
Convertible Preferred Stock had no voting rights.
The contingent obligation to issue warrants is considered an
outstanding equity-linked financial instrument and was therefore
recognized as equity classified warrants, initially measured at
relative fair value of approximately $3,727,000, resulting in an
initial discount to the carrying value of the Series C
Convertible Preferred
Stock.
Due to the reduction of allocated proceeds to the contingently
issuable common stock warrants and Series C Convertible Preferred
Stock, the effective conversion price of the Series C Convertible
Preferred Stock was less than the Company’s common stock
price on each commitment date, resulting in an aggregate beneficial
conversion feature of approximately $3,276,000, which reduced the
carrying value of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock. Since
the conversion option of the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock
was immediately exercisable, the beneficial conversion feature was
immediately accreted as a deemed dividend, resulting in an increase
in the carrying value of the C Convertible Preferred Stock of
approximately $3,276,000.
The Series C Convertible Preferred Stock was automatically
redeemable at a price equal to its original purchase price plus all
accrued but unpaid dividends in the event the average of the daily
volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock
for the 30 days preceding the two-year anniversary date of issuance
is less than $6.00 per share. As redemption was outside of
the Company’s control, the Series C Convertible Preferred
Stock was classified in temporary equity at issuance. All of the
Series C Convertible Preferred shares were converted to common
stock during 2018 and the Company has issued 1,394,726 warrants. As
of December 31, 2018, no shares of Series C Convertible Preferred
Stock remain outstanding.

September 24, 2019, the Company closed a firm commitment public

dividends were approximately $68,000, payable to shareholders of
record as of September 30, 2019, which was paid October 15,
2019.
Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, each
holder of Series D Cumulative Preferred Stock would be entitled to
receive a distribution, to be paid in an amount equal to $25.00 per
share held by the holders of Series D Cumulative Preferred Stock,
plus all accrued and unpaid dividends in preference to any
distribution or payments made or any asset distributed to the

Preferred Stock, the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock or any

option, redeem the Series D Cumulative Preferred Stock, in whole or
in part, within 120 days after the first date on which such Change
of Control occurred, for cash at a redemption price of $25.00 per
share, plus any accumulated and unpaid dividends to, but not
including, the redemption date. Holders of the Series D Cumulative

over the life of the service agreement when applicable.

with the amortization of advisory fees is recorded as equity
issuance expense and is included in general and administrative
expense on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of

Warrant Modification – loss on modification of
warrants
On July
31, 2019, Carl Grover, who is also a related party to the Company
acquired 600,242 shares of common stock, upon the partial exercise
at $4.60 per share of a 2014 Warrant to purchase 782,608 shares of
common stock held by him. In connection with such exercise, the
Company received $2,761,113 from Mr. Grover and issued to Mr.
Grover 50,000 shares of restricted common stock as an inducement
fee and agreed to extend the expiration date of the remaining
unexercised 2014 Warrant held by him to December 15, 2020 with
respect to 182,366 shares of common stock. The 2014 Warrant was
classified as a liability.
On July
31, 2019 one investor (the “July 2014 Investor”) from
the Company’s 2014 Private Placement acquired 19,565 shares
of the Company’s common stock upon exercise of their 2014
Warrant. The July 2014 Investor used the proceeds from their 2014
Note in the amount of $100,000 which was payable on July 31, 2019
by the Company and applied this amount to the exercise of the
warrant. In connection with the exercise, the Company paid to the
July 2014 Investor the remaining balance due on the 2014 Note with
interest approximately $11,000 and issued as an inducement to
exercise the 2014 Warrant an additional 2,500 shares of restricted
common stock. The 2014 Warrant was classified as a
liability.
On
August 12, 2019, one investor (the “August 2014
Investor”) from the Company’s 2014 Private Placement
acquired 48,913 shares of the Company’s common stock upon
exercise of their 2014 Warrant. In connection with the exercise,
the Company received $228,052 and issued as an inducement to
exercise the 2014 Warrant an additional 5,750 shares of restricted
common stock. The 2014 Warrant was classified as a
liability.
The
Company also agreed to amend a warrant issued to Brian Frank (the
“Placement Agent”) on September 10, 2014, to purchase
44,107 shares of common stock at $7.00 per share and expiring on
September 10, 2019, and a warrant issued to the Placement Agent on
September 10, 2014, to purchase 60,407 shares of common stock at
$4.60 per share of common stock and expiring on September 10, 2019
(collectively, the “Placement Agent Warrants”), to
extend the expiration date of the Placement Agent Warrants to
December 15, 2020 for his assistance in connection with the above
transaction with Mr. Grover. The Placement Agent warrants were
classified as equity.
On
August 20, 2019, one investor from the Company’s Series C
Offering acquired 63,156 shares of common stock of the Company,
upon the exercise at $4.75 per share of a Preferred Warrant to
purchase 63,156 shares of common stock held by them. In connection
with such exercise, the Company received $299,991 from the
investor, issued to the investor 6,000 shares of restricted common
stock as an inducement fee. The Preferred Warrant was classified as
equity.
The
Company considered the guidance of ASC 470-20-40, Debt with Conversion and Other
Options, ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees and ASC
718-20-35, Awards Classified as Equity to determine the
appropriate accounting treatment to record the impact of the
modification of the warrants and the inducement shares issued upon
the exercise of the warrants.
The
Company concluded that the inducement of shares and the change in
the terms of the warrants were considered modification of the
warrant terms.
The
liability classified warrants were measured before and after the
modification with changes in the fair value recorded to earnings.
The fair value of the inducement shares was recorded as a loss on
modification of warrants and a credit to additional paid in
capital/common stock.
Some of
the equity-classified warrants were modified by issuing common
shares, not called for by the warrant agreement, to induce exercise
of the warrant. Other equity-classified warrants, such as the
Placement Agent Warrants, were modified by increasing the exercise
period of the warrants. All of these changes are considered
modifications of the warrant terms.
These
modifications result in the recognition of incremental fair value.
Incremental fair value is equal to the difference between the fair
value of the modified warrant and the fair value of the original
warrant immediately before it was modified. Based on the above
guidance, the incremental fair value of the warrants is recognized
immediately, as a non-operating expense, as the warrants are not
subject to vesting conditions.
The
fair value of the Placement Agent Warrants was estimated on July
29, 2019 (date of warrant maturity date modification) using a
Black-Scholes option pricing model both before and after
modification. The increase in fair value was recognized as a debit
to loss on modification of warrants expense and a credit to
additional paid-in capital. The fair value of the inducement shares
issued with the Preferred Warrant was calculated as the number of
shares issued times the per share price of the Company’s
common stock on the exercise date of August 20, 2019. This amount
was recorded as a loss on modification of warrants expense and a
credit to additional paid-in capital/common stock.
The Company recorded a loss on modification of warrants expense for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, related to the
above warrant modifications in the aggregate of approximately
$876,000.
The
Company concluded that the 2014 Warrant held by Mr. Grover would
continue to be treated as a liability.
Stock Options
On May 16, 2012, the Company established the 2012 Stock Option Plan
(“Plan”) authorizing the granting of options of common
stock. On February 15, 2019, the Company’s board of directors
received approval of the Company’s stockholders to further
amend the 2012 Plan to increase the number of shares of the
Company’s common stock that may be delivered pursuant to
awards granted during the life of the 2012 Plan from 4,000,000 to
9,000,000 shares authorized.
The purpose of the Plan is to promote the long-term growth and
profitability of the Company by (i) providing key people and
consultants with incentives to improve stockholder value and to
contribute to the growth and financial success of the Company and
(ii) enabling the Company to attract, retain and reward the best
available persons for positions of substantial responsibility. The
Plan allows for the grant of: (a) incentive stock options; (b)
nonqualified stock options; (c) stock appreciation rights; (d)
restricted stock; and (e) other stock-based and cash-based awards
to eligible individuals qualifying under Section 422 of the
Internal Revenue Code, in any combination (collectively,
“Options”). At September 30, 2019, the Company
had 3,718,375 shares of common
stock available for issuance under the
Plan.

The weighted-average fair value per share of the granted options
for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was
approximately $4.18.
Stock-based compensation expense included in the condensed
consolidated statements of operations was approximately $583,000
and $373,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and
2018, respectively, approximately and $12,226,000 and $618,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018,
respectively.
As of September 30, 2019, there was approximately $1,476,000
of total unrecognized compensation
expense related to unvested stock options granted under the Plan.
The expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average
period of 2.04 years.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes to estimate the fair value of
stock options. The use of a valuation model requires the Company to
make certain assumptions with respect to selected model inputs.
Expected volatility is calculated based on the historical
volatility of the Company’s stock price over
the expected term of the option. The expected life is based on
the contractual life of the option and expected employee
exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior. The
risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon
issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life assumed at
the date of the grant.
Restricted Stock Units
On August 9, 2017, the Company issued restricted stock units for an
aggregate of 500,000 shares of common stock, to its employees and
consultants. These shares of common stock will be issued upon
vesting of the restricted stock unit (“RSU’s”).
Full vesting occurs on the sixth-year anniversary of the grant
date, with 10% vesting on the third-year, 15% on the fourth-year,
50% on the fifth-year and 25% on the sixth-year anniversary of the
vesting commencement date. The fair value of each RSU’s
issued to employees was based on the grant date closing stock price
of $4.53 and is recognized as stock-based compensation expense over
the vesting term of the award.
The Company adopted ASU 2018-07 on January 1, 2019 and the
stock-based compensation expense for non-employee grants is based
on the closing price of our common stock of $5.72 on December 31,
2018, which was the last business day before we adopted ASU
2018-07. See Note 1 above, Recently Adopted Accounting
Pronouncements for further
discussion of the Company’s adoption of ASU
2018-07.
As of September 30, 2019, none of the RSU’s have vested from
the August 9, 2017 grant.
On August 15, 2019, the Company issued RSU’s for an aggregate
of 50,000 shares of common stock, to one of its consultants. These
shares of common stock will be issued upon vesting of the
RSU’s. Vesting occurs monthly over a three-year period with
the first vesting period commencing one month from the grant date.
The fair value of the RSU’s issued to the consultant was
based on the grant date closing stock price of $4.55 and is
recognized as stock-based compensation expense over the vesting
term of the award. During the three and nine months ended September
30, 2019, 1,389 RSU’s vested.

Note 11. Segment and Geographical
Information
The
Company operates in three
segments: the direct selling segment where products are offered
through a global distribution network of preferred customers and
distributors, the commercial coffee segment where roasted and green
coffee bean products are sold directly to businesses, and
commercial hemp segment provides end to end extraction and
processing via the Company’s proprietary systems that allow
for the conversion of hemp feedstock into hemp oil and hemp
extracts. The primary focus of the commercial hemp segment is
to generate revenue through sales of extraction services and end to
end processing services for the conversion of hemp feedstock and
hemp oil into sellable ingredients. Additionally, the Company
offers various rental, sales, and service programs of the
Company’s extraction and processing
systems.
The Company’s segments reflect the manner in which the
business is managed and how the Company allocates resources and
assesses performance. The Company’s chief operating decision
maker is the Chief Executive Officer. The Company’s chief
operating decision maker evaluates segment performance primarily
based on revenue and segment operating income. The principal
measures and factors the Company considered in determining the
number of reportable segments were revenue, gross margin
percentage, sales channel, customer type and competitive
risks.
The accounting policies of the segments are consistent with those
described in the summary of significant accounting policies.
Segment revenue excludes intercompany revenue eliminated in the
consolidation. The following tables present certain financial

where products are sold directly to businesses and the commercial
hemp segment provides end to end extraction and processing via our
proprietary systems that allow for the conversion of hemp feedstock
into hemp oil and hemp extracts. During the year ended December 31,
2018, we operated in two business segments, our direct selling
segment and our commercial coffee segment. During the first quarter
of 2019, we through the
acquisition of the assets of Khrysos Global, Inc. added a third
business segment to our operations, the commercial hemp. Our three
segments are listed below:
●

(“KII”) acquired the assets of Khrysos Global Inc. a
Florida corporation in February 2019 and the wholly-owned
subsidiaries of Khrysos Global Inc., INXL Laboratories, Inc., a
Florida corporation and INX Holdings, Inc., a Florida

We

three months ended September
30, 2019 and 2018 approximately 16% and 14%, respectively, of our
sales were derived from sales outside the United States. For the
nine months ended September 30,
2019 and 2018 approximately 11% and 14%, respectively, of our sales
were derived from sales outside the United States.
Direct Selling Segment
In the direct selling segment, we sell health and wellness, beauty
product and skin care, scrap booking and story booking items,
packaged food products and other service-based products including,
our recent Hemp FX™
hemp-derived cannabinoid product line, on a global basis and
offer a wide range of products through an international direct
selling network. Our direct sales are made through our network,
which is a web-based global network of customers and distributors.
Our independent sales force markets a variety of products to an
array of customers, through friend-to-friend marketing and social
networking. We consider our company to be an e-commerce company
whereby personal interaction is provided to customers by our
independent sales network. Initially, our focus was solely on the
sale of products in the health, beauty and home care market through
our marketing network; however, we have since expanded our selling
efforts to include a variety of other products in other
markets. Our direct selling
segment offers more than 5,600 products to support a healthy

companies including their product lines and sales forces. We have
also substantially expanded our distributor base by merging the
assets that we have acquired under our web-based independent
distributor network, as well as providing our distributors with
additional new products to add to their product
offerings.
Commercial Coffee Segment
In the commercial coffee segment, we engage in the commercial sale
of roasted coffee products and distribution of green coffee beans,
through our subsidiary CLR. We own a traditional coffee roasting
business that sells roasted coffee products under its own Café
La Rica brand, Josie’s Java House Brand, Javalution brands
and Café Cachita brand. CLR produces a variety of private
labels through major national sales outlets and to major customers
including cruise lines and office coffee service operators, as well
as through our direct selling business. CLR was established in 2001
and is our wholly-owned subsidiary. CLR produces and markets a
unique line of coffees with health benefits under the JavaFit®
brand which is sold directly to consumers. In April 2017, CLR
reached an agreement with Major League Baseball's Miami Marlins to
feature CLR’s Café La Rica Gourmet Espresso coffee as
the “Official Cafecito of the Miami Marlins” at Marlins
Park in Miami, Florida. The
current agreement with the Miami Marlins was through the 2019
baseball season with an option to renew for the 2020 season.
In January 2019, CLR acquired the Café Cachita Brand of
espresso and in February 2019 we announced the expansion of our
Café Cachita brand of espresso into retail stores throughout
Southeastern Grocers. The new distribution footprint now
includes all Winn Dixie, Bi-Lo, Fresco Y Mas, Save Mart and Harvey
stores. In June 2019, we announced all-store distribution for
CLR’s Javalution™ Hemp Infused Coffee Brand, scheduled
to ship in the fourth quarter with the distribution footprint
including Winn Dixie stores, Bi-Lo stores, Fresco Y Mas stores, and
Harvey stores.
Our roasting facility located in Miami, Florida, is 50,000 square
feet and is SQF Level 2 certified, which is a stringent food safety
process that verifies the coffee bean processing plant and
distribution facility is in compliance with Certified HACCP (Hazard
Analysis, Critical Control Points) food safety plans.
In March 2014, we expanded our coffee segment and started our new
green coffee distribution business with CLR’s acquisition of
Siles Plantation Family Group, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary
of CLR located in Matagalpa, Nicaragua. Siles Plantation Family
Group includes “La Pita,” a dry-processing facility on
approximately 26 acres of land and “El Paraiso,” a
coffee plantation consisting of approximately 500 acres of land and
thousands of coffee plants which produces 100 percent Arabica
coffee beans that are shade grown, Organic, Rainforest Alliance
Certified™ and Fair Trade Certified™.
The plantation and dry-processing facility allows CLR to control
the coffee production process from field to cup. The dry-processing
plant allows CLR to produce and sell green coffee to major coffee
suppliers in the United States and around the world. CLR has
engaged a husband and wife team to operate the Siles Plantation
Family Group by way of an operating agreement. The agreement
provides for the sharing of profits and losses generated by the
Siles Plantation Family Group after certain conditions are met. CLR
has made substantial improvements to the land and facilities since
2014.
Commercial Hemp Segment
In the commercial hemp segment, we are engaged in the CBD hemp
extraction technology and equipment business. We develop,
manufacture and sell equipment and related services to clients
which enable them to extract CBD oils from hemp stock. In
addition, through INX Laboratories, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary
of KII, we own a laboratory testing facility that provides us with
capabilities in regard to formulation, quality control, and testing
standards with its CBD products. KII is now producing tinctures,
balms, bath bombs, creams, ointments, in various potencies, as well
as Javalution™ Hemp Infused Coffee Brand CBD coffee for CLR.
KII has also entered into various supply contracts with clients to
provide extraction services and end-to-end processing to produce
water soluble isolate, distillate, and water-soluble distillate
hemp derived products. These supply agreements include a five-year
supply contract with revenues forecasted at $60 million through
2024 (based on current market conditions and, among other things,
our ability to secure buyers for the produced product and the
supplier's ability to supply the biomass for extraction and
processing), and a one-year supply agreement expected to generate
$19 million in revenues (based on current market conditions). KII
also offers clients turnkey manufacturing solutions in extraction
services and end-to-end processing systems.

Orozco, the owners of H&H as employees to manage Siles. In
addition, CLR and H&H, Hernandez and Orozco have agreed to
restructure their profit-sharing agreement in regard to profits
from green coffee sales and processing that increased CLR’s
profit participation by an additional 25%. Under the new terms of
the agreement with respect to profit generated from green coffee
sales and processing from La Pita, a leased mill, or the new mill,
now will provide for a split of profits of 75% to CLR and 25% to
the Nicaraguan Partner, after certain conditions are met. We issued
295,910 shares of our common stock to H&H Export to pay for
certain working capital, construction and other payables. In
addition, H&H Export has sold to CLR its espresso brand
Café Cachita in consideration of the issuance of 100,000
shares of our common stock. Hernandez and Orozco are employees of
CLR. The shares of common stock issued were valued at $7.50 per
share.
Stock Offering
On
February 6, 2019, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement
(the “Purchase Agreement”) with one accredited investor
that had a substantial pre-existing relationship with us pursuant
to which we sold 250,000 shares of our common stock at an offering
price of $7.00 per share. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we
also issued to the investor a three-year warrant to purchase
250,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $7.00. The
proceeds to us were $1,750,000. Consulting fees for arranging the
Purchase Agreement include the issuance of 5,000 shares of
restricted shares of our common stock and 100,000 3-year warrants
priced at $10.00. No cash commissions were paid.
On June
17, 2019, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the
“Purchase Agreement”) with one accredited investor that
had a substantial pre-existing relationship with us pursuant to
which we sold 250,000 shares of common stock at an offering price
of $5.50 per share. The proceeds were $1,375,000. We did not pay
consulting fees in this transaction.
Convertible Notes
Between
February 15, 2019 and July 12, 2019, we closed five tranches
related to the January 2019 Private Placement debt offering,
pursuant to which we offered for sale up to $10,000,000 in
principal amount of notes (the “2019 PIPE Notes”), with
each investor receiving 2,000 shares of common stock for each
$100,000 invested. We entered into subscription agreements with
thirty-one (31) accredited investors that had a substantial
pre-existing relationship with us pursuant to which we received
aggregate gross proceeds of $3,090,000 and issued 2019 PIPE Notes
in the aggregate principal amount of $3,090,000 and an aggregate of
61,800 shares of common stock. The placement agent received 15,450
shares of common stock for the closed tranches. Each 2019 PIPE Note
matures 24 months after issuance, bears interest at a rate of six
percent (6%) per annum, and the outstanding principal is
convertible into shares of common stock at any time after the 180th
day anniversary of the issuance of the 2019 PIPE Notes, at a
conversion price of $10.00 per share (subject to adjustment for
stock splits, stock dividends and reclassification of the common
stock).
Promissory Notes
On
March 18, 2019, we entered into a two-year Secured Promissory Note
(the “8% Note or Notes”) with two accredited investors
that we had a substantial pre-existing relationship with and from
whom we raised cash proceeds in the aggregate of $2,000,000. In
consideration of the 8% Notes, we issued 20,000 shares of our
common stock for each $1,000,000 invested as well as for each
$1,000,000 invested five-year warrants to purchase 20,000 shares of
our common stock at a price per share of $6.00. The 8% Notes pay interest at a rate of eight
percent (8%) per annum and interest is paid quarterly in arrears
with all principal and unpaid interest due at maturity on March 18,
2021.
Results of Operations
Three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to three months
ended September 30, 2018
Revenues
For the
three months ended September
30, 2019, our revenues decreased 13.0% to $34,017,000 as compared
to $39,082,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. During the three
months ended September 30,
2019, we derived approximately 89.0% of our revenue from our direct
selling sales and approximately 10.5% of our revenue from our
commercial coffee sales and approximately 0.5% from our commercial
hemp segment. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, direct selling
segment revenues decreased by $4,024,000 or 11.7% to $30,256,000 as
compared to $34,280,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. This decrease was
primarily attributable to a decrease in the number of ordering
customers, partially offset by an increase in revenues from
distributors due to an increase in the average order amount per
distributor. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, commercial coffee
segment revenues decreased by $1,225,000 or 25.5% to $3,577,000 as
compared to $4,802,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. This decrease was attributed to lower revenues in
our green coffee and roasted coffee businesses. During the
three months ended September 30, 2019, there were no revenues
related to the new 2019 green coffee contract that began shipping
in January 2019 as CLR sold most of the green coffee purchased
under this contract during the first half of 2019. For the three
months ended September 30,
2019, our new commercial hemp segment recorded $184,000 in revenues
from sales made by KII.

Cost of Revenues
For the three months ended September 30, 2019, overall cost of revenues
decreased approximately 7.1% to $14,279,000 as compared to
$15,370,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. The
direct selling segment cost of revenues decreased 1.4% to
approximately $10,507,000 when compared to $10,658,000 for the same
period last year, primarily due to the decrease in revenues,
partially offset by an increase in inventory reserve expense of
$691,000. The commercial coffee segment cost of revenues decreased
20.6% to $3,740,000 when compared to $4,712,000 for the same period
last year. This was primarily attributable to the decrease in green
coffee cost of sales due to the lower green coffee revenues. The
commercial hemp segment cost of revenues was
$32,000.
Cost of revenues includes the cost of inventory including green
coffee, shipping and handling costs incurred in connection with
shipments to customers, direct labor and benefits costs, royalties
associated with certain products, transaction merchant fees and
depreciation on certain assets.
Gross Profit (Loss)
For the three months ended September 30, 2019, overall gross profit
decreased approximately 16.8% to $19,738,000 as compared to
$23,712,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018. Overall
gross profit as a percentage of revenues decreased to 58.0%,
compared to 60.7% in the same period last year, primarily due to
the decrease in revenues discussed above and the increase in
inventory reserve expense of $691,000.
Gross profit in the direct selling segment decreased by 16.4% to
$19,749,000 from $23,622,000 in the same period last year primarily
as a result of the decrease in revenues discussed above and the
increase in inventory reserve expense of $691,000. Gross profit as
a percentage of revenues in the direct selling segment decreased to
65.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to
68.9% in the same period last year.
Gross profit in the commercial coffee segment decreased to a
loss of $163,000 compared to a profit of $90,000 in the same period
last year. The decrease in gross profit in the commercial coffee
segment was primarily due to the decrease in revenues discussed above and
fixed costs that remained flat. Gross
profit as a percentage of revenues in the commercial coffee segment
decreased to (4.6)% for the three months ended September 30, 2019,
compared to 1.9% in the same period last year.
Gross profit in the commercial hemp segment related to the February
12, 2019 acquisition was $152,000.

Operating Expenses
For the three months ended September 30, 2019, our operating
expenses increased 12.3% to $28,217,000 as compared to $25,118,000
for the three months ended September 30, 2018.
For the three months ended September 30, 2019, the distributor
compensation paid to our independent distributors in the direct
selling segment decreased 13.0% to $13,122,000 from $15,076,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 2018. This decrease was
primarily attributable to the decrease in revenues. Distributor
compensation as a percentage of direct selling revenues decreased
to 43.4% for the three months ended September 30, 2019 as compared
to 44.0% for the three months ended September 30, 2018, primarily
attributable to the decrease in revenues and changes in product
mix.
For the three months ended September 30, 2019, total sales and
marketing expense increased 11.9% to $4,432,000 from $3,962,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 2018. In the direct selling
segment, sales and marketing expense increased by 7.0% to
$4,009,000 in the current quarter from $3,747,000 for the same
period last year, primarily due to increased convention costs,
partially offset by lower marketing costs. In the commercial coffee
segment, sales and marketing expense increased by $40,000 to
$255,000 in the current quarter compared to $215,000 the same
period last year, primarily due to increased advertising and
compensation expense. Sales and marketing expense was $168,000 in
the commercial hemp segment.
For the three months ended September 30, 2019, total
general and administrative expense
increased 174.8% to $10,663,000 from $3,880,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2018. In the direct selling segment,
general and administrative expense increased by 114.3% to
$6,615,000 in the current quarter from $3,087,000 for the same
period last year. This increase was primarily due to an increase in
legal, accounting, computer expense and non-cash equity-based
compensation expense of $1,476,000. This was partially offset by a
decrease in intangible amortization expense of $171,000. In
addition, the contingent liability revaluation adjustment in the
current quarter was a reduction in expense of $478,000 compared to
a reduction in expense of $2,618,000 for the same period last year.
In the commercial coffee segment, general and administrative costs
increased by $1,126,000 or 142.0% to $1,919,000 in the current
quarter compared to $793,000 in the same period last year. This was
primarily due to an increase in wages, warehouse storage costs and
profit-sharing expense of $863,000, compared to a profit-sharing
benefit of $247,000 in the same period last year. General and
administrative expense was $2,129,000 in the commercial hemp
segment, mostly related to wages, supplies and general office
costs.
For the three months ended September 30, 2018, our direct selling
segment recorded a loss on impairment of intangible assets related
to our acquisition of BeautiControl whereby the
underlying intangible assets were impaired and recorded a loss on
impairment of intangible assets of approximately $2,200,000 (see
Note 5, to the condensed consolidated financial
statements).
Operating Loss
For the three months ended September 30, 2019, we reported an
operating loss of $8,479,000 as compared to an operating loss of
$1,406,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2018.
Total Other Expense (Income), net
For the three months ended September 30, 2019, total net other
expense (income) decreased by $7,417,000 to other income of
$472,000 as compared to other expense of $6,945,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2018. Total other expense includes net
interest expense, the change in the fair value of derivative
liabilities, extinguishment loss on debt and loss on modification
of warrants.
Net interest expense decreased by $298,000 to $1,109,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $1,407,000 for
the three months ended September 30, 2018. Interest expense
includes the imputed interest portion of the payments related to
contingent acquisition debt of $344,000, interest payments to
investors associated with our 2014 and 2019 private placements and
debt transactions of $205,000, $97,000 related to our Crestmark
agreement and interest paid for other operating debt of $136,000.
Non-cash interest primarily related to amortization costs of
$380,000 and $4,000 of other non-cash interest, offset by interest
income of $57,000.
Change in fair value of derivative liabilities increased by
$7,995,000 to $2,457,000 in other income for the three months
ended September 30, 2019
compared to $5,538,000 in other expense for the three months ended
September 30, 2018. Various factors are considered in the
pricing models we use to value the warrants including our current
stock price, the remaining life of the warrants, the volatility of
our stock price, and the risk-free interest rate. Future changes in
these factors may have a significant impact on the computed fair
value of our derivative liabilities. As such, we expect future
changes in the fair value of the warrants and may vary
significantly from period to period (see Notes 8 & 9, to the
condensed consolidated financial
statements).
We recorded a non-cash loss on warrants of $876,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2019 as a result of modification of the
warrant terms of certain holders of 2014 warrants and preferred
warrants to include additional shares of restricted common stock we
issued as an inducement fee upon exercise of their warrants. In
addition, one holder of a 2014 Warrant included a change in the
exercise price and extended the expiration period of the warrant.
We also amended the expiration period of warrants issued to the
placement agent for his assistance with the 2014 Warrant
modification (see Note 10, to the condensed
consolidated financial statements).
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability
method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the
future tax consequences attributable to differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and
tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using statutory tax rates expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are
expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax
assets and liabilities from a change in tax rates is recognized in
income in the period that includes the effective date of the
change. We have determined through consideration of all positive
and negative evidences that the deferred tax assets are not more
likely than not to be realized. A valuation allowance remains on
the U.S., state and foreign tax attributes that are likely to
expire before realization. We have approximately $146,000 in AMT
refundable credits, and we expect that $73,000 will be refunded in
2019. As such, we do not have a valuation allowance relating to the
refundable AMT credit carryforward. We have recognized an income
tax benefit of $133,000 which is our estimated federal, state and foreign
income tax benefit for the three months ended September 30, 2019.
The difference between the effective tax rate and the federal
statutory rate of 21% is due to the permanent differences, change
in valuation allowance,
state taxes (net of federal benefit), and foreign tax rate
differential.
Net Loss
For the three months ended September 30, 2019, we reported a net
loss of $7,874,000 as compared to net loss of $8,410,000 for the
three months ended September 30, 2018. The reason for the decrease
in net loss when compared to the prior period was due to the
decrease in total other expense of $7,417,000 and the increase in
income tax benefit of $192,000, offset by the increase in operating
loss of $7,073,000.
Nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to nine months ended
September 30, 2018
Revenues
For the
nine months ended September 30, 2019, our revenues increased 14.0%
to $144,004,000 as compared to $126,331,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2018. During the nine months ended
September 30, 2019, we derived 66.5% of our revenue from our direct
selling sales and approximately 33.1% of our revenue from our
commercial coffee sales and approximately 0.4% from our commercial
hemp segment.
For the
nine months ended September 30, 2019, direct selling segment
revenues decreased by $10,637,000 or 10.0% to $95,800,000 as
compared to $106,437,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
2018. This decrease was attributed to
a decrease of $11,058,000 in
revenues from existing business, partially offset by
revenues from new acquisitions of
$421,000. The decrease in existing business was primarily due to a
decline in the number of ordering distributors and
customers, partially offset by an increase in average order amount
per distributor.
For the
nine months ended September 30, 2019, commercial coffee segment
revenues increased by $27,785,000 or 139.7% to $47,679,000 as
compared to $19,894,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
2018. This increase was primarily attributed to increased revenues
during the first half of 2019 related to the new 2019 green coffee
contract that began shipping in January 2019.
Our new
commercial hemp segment recorded $525,000 in revenues from sales
made by KII.

Cost of Revenues
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, overall cost of revenues increased
approximately 36.9% to $71,495,000 as compared to $52,225,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The direct selling segment cost of
revenues decreased 5.9% to $31,056,000 when compared to $32,993,000
for the same period last year, primarily due to the decrease in
revenues discussed above, partially offset by an increase in
inventory adjustments. The commercial coffee segment cost of
revenues increased 108.2% to $40,044,000 when compared to
$19,232,000 for the same period last year. This was primarily
attributable to the increase in revenues related to the green
coffee business discussed above. The commercial hemp segment cost
of revenues was $395,000.
Cost of revenues includes the cost of inventory including green
coffee, shipping and handling costs incurred in connection with
shipments to customers, direct labor and benefits costs, royalties
associated with certain products, transaction merchant fees and
depreciation on certain assets.
Gross Profit
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, overall gross profit decreased
approximately 2.2% to $72,509,000 as compared to $74,106,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Overall gross profit as a percentage of
revenues decreased to 50.4% compared to 58.7% in the same period
last year, primarily due to increased sales from the lower margin
commercial coffee segment.
Gross profit in the direct selling segment decreased by 11.8% to
$64,744,000 from $73,444,000 in the prior period primarily as a
result of the decrease in revenues discussed above and the increase
in expense related to inventory adjustments. Gross profit as a
percentage of revenues in the direct selling segment decreased to
67.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to 69.0% in the same period
last year.
Gross profit in the commercial coffee segment increased to
$7,635,000 compared to $662,000 in the prior period. The increase
in gross profit in the commercial coffee segment was primarily due
to the increase in revenues from our new 2019 green coffee
contract discussed above. Gross profit
as a percentage of revenues in the commercial coffee segment
increased to 16.0% for the nine months ended September
30, 2019, compared to 3.3% in the same
period last year.
Gross profit in the commercial hemp segment of $130,000 was
related to the February 12, 2019 acquisition of
Khrysos.

Operating Expenses
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, our operating expenses increased 23.7%
to $92,541,000 as compared to $74,835,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2018. This
increase included an increase of $12,892,000 in non-cash

in the first quarter of the current year. Excluding the increase in
equity-based compensation expense, the increase in our operating
expense would have been 6.4%.

independent distributors in the direct selling segment decreased
9.8% to $42,509,000 from $47,141,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2018. This
decrease was primarily attributable to the decrease in revenues.
Distributor compensation as a percentage of direct selling revenues
increased slightly to 44.4% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2019 as compared to
44.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Excluding the increase in equity-based compensation expense, sales
and marketing expense would have increased by
2.2%.
In the direct selling segment, sales and marketing expense
increased by 3.3% to $10,213,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2019, compared to
$9,888,000 for the same period last year. This increase included an
increase of $471,000 in equity-based compensation expense.
Excluding the increase in equity-based compensation expense, sales
and marketing expense would have decreased by 1.5%. In the
commercial coffee segment, sales and marketing costs increased by
25.1% to $812,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
2019, compared to $649,000 for the
same period last year, primarily due to increased advertising costs
and compensation expense. Sales and marketing expense were $212,000
in the commercial hemp segment for the nine months ended
September 30,
2019.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, total general and administrative expense increased
159.4% to $38,795,000 from $14,957,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2018. This
increase included an increase of $12,421,000 in equity-based
compensation expense in the first quarter of the current year.
Excluding the increase in equity-based compensation expense, the
increase in general and administration expense would have been
76.3%.
In the direct selling segment, general and administrative expense
increased by 132.0% to $29,112,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2019 from $12,547,000
for the same period last year. This increase included an increase
of $10,995,000 in equity-based compensation expense in the first
quarter of the current year. Excluding the increase in equity-based
compensation expense, general and administrative expense would have
increased by 44.4%. This increase was primarily due to an increase
in accounting and computer consulting fees. In addition, equity
issuance costs were $3,982,000 in the current period, compared to
none for the same period last year and the contingent liability
revaluation adjustment in the current period resulted in a
reduction in expense of $911,000 compared to a reduction in expense
of $4,076,000 for the same period last year. In the commercial
coffee segment, general and administrative costs increased by
156.9% to $6,192,000 for the nine months ended September 30,
2019 compared to $2,410,000 in the
same period last year. This increase included an increase of
$1,425,000 in equity-based compensation expense in the first
quarter of 2019. Excluding the increase in stock-based compensation
expense, general and administration expense in the commercial
coffee segment would have increased by 97.8%. This was primarily
due to an increase in wages, warehouse storage costs and
profit-sharing expense of $1,331,000, compared to a profit-sharing benefit
of $719,000 in the same period last year. General and
administrative expense was $3,491,000 in the commercial hemp
segment, and was mostly related to wages, supplies and general
office costs.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, our direct selling
segment recorded a loss on impairment of intangible assets related
to our acquisition of BeautiControl whereby the
underlying intangible assets were impaired and recorded a loss on
impairment of intangible assets of approximately $2,200,000 (see
Note 5, to the condensed consolidated financial
statements).
Operating Loss
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we reported an operating loss of
$20,032,000 as compared to an operating loss of $729,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This was primarily due to the increase
of $12,966,000 in non-cash equity-based compensation expense in the
first quarter of 2019 as discussed above. Excluding the increase in
equity-based compensation expense, we would have reported an
operating loss of $7,066,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2019.
Total Other Expense
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, total other expense decreased by
$10,174,000 to $210,000 as compared to other expense of $10,384,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Total other expense includes net
interest expense, the change in the fair value of derivative
liabilities, extinguishment loss on debt and the loss on
modification of warrants.
Net interest expense decreased by $990,000 to $3,678,000 for
the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $4,668,000 for the
nine months ended September 30, 2018.
Interest expense includes the imputed interest portion of the
payments related to contingent acquisition debt of $1,084,000,
interest payments on short term debt of $277,000, interest payments
to investors associated with our 2014 and 2019 private placements
and debt transactions of $534,000, $293,000 related to our
Crestmark agreement and interest paid for other operating debt of
$451,000. Non-cash interest primarily related to amortization costs
of $1,194,000 and $9,000 of other non-cash interest, offset by
interest income of $164,000.
The change in fair value of derivative liabilities increased by
$8,978,000 to $4,344,000 in other income for the nine months
ended September 30, 2019 compared to
$4,634,000 in other expense for the nine months ended
September 30, 2018. Various
factors are considered in the pricing models we use to value the
warrants including our current stock price, the remaining life of
the warrants, the volatility of our stock price, and the risk-free
interest rate. Future changes in these factors may have a
significant impact on the computed fair value of our derivative
liabilities. As such, we expect future changes in the fair value of
the warrants and may vary significantly from period to period (see
Notes 8 & 9 to the condensed consolidated financial
statements).
We recorded a non-cash loss on warrants of $876,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2019 as a result of modification of the
warrant terms of certain holders of 2014 warrants and preferred
warrants to include additional shares of restricted common stock we
issued as an inducement fee to upon exercise of their warrants. In
addition, one holder of a 2014 Warrant included a change in the
exercise price and extended the expiration period of the warrant.
We also amended the expiration period of warrants issued to the
placement agent for his assistance with the 2014 Warrant
modification (see Note 10, to the condensed
consolidated financial statements).
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability
method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the
future tax consequences attributable to differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and
tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using statutory tax rates expected to apply to taxable
income in the years in which those temporary differences are
expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax
assets and liabilities from a change in tax rates is recognized in
income in the period that includes the effective date of the
change. We have determined through consideration of all positive
and negative evidences that the deferred tax assets are not more
likely than not to be realized. A valuation allowance remains on
the U.S., state and foreign tax attributes that are likely to
expire before realization. We have approximately $146,000 in AMT
refundable credits, and we expect that $73,000 will be refunded in
2019. As such, we do not have a valuation allowance relating to the
refundable AMT credit carryforward. We have recognized an income
tax benefit of $61,000 which is our estimated federal, state and foreign
income tax benefit for the nine months ended September
30, 2019. The difference between the
effective tax rate and the federal statutory rate of 21% is due to
the permanent differences, change in
valuation allowance, state
taxes (net of federal benefit), and foreign tax rate
differential.
Net Loss
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we reported an increase in net loss of
$8,849,000 to a net loss of $20,181,000 as compared to net loss of
$11,332,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The reason for the increase in net loss
when compared to the prior period was due to the increase in
operating loss of $19,303,000, offset by the decrease in other
expense of $10,174,000 and an increase in income tax benefit of
$280,000. The primary reason for the increase in operating loss was
the increase of $12,966,000 in non-cash equity-based compensation
expense and non-cash equity issuance costs of
$3,982,000.
Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA (earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and
amortization) as adjusted to remove the effect of equity-based
compensation expense and the non-cash loss on impairment of
intangible assets, non-cash loss on extinguishment of debt,
non-cash loss on modification of warrants and the change in the
fair value of the derivatives or "Adjusted EBITDA,"
decreased to a negative $4,444,000 for the three months
ended September 30, 2019 compared to $2,670,000 in 2018 and
decreased to $567,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019
compared to $6,393,000 in the same period in 2018.
Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with our
results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provides
useful information about our period-over-period growth. Adjusted
EBITDA is presented because management believes it provides
additional information with respect to the performance of our
fundamental business activities and is also frequently used by
securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the
evaluation of comparable companies. We also rely on Adjusted EBITDA
as a primary measure to review and assess the operating performance
of our Company and our management team.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. We calculate
adjusted EBITDA by taking net income, and adding back the expenses
related to interest, income taxes, depreciation, amortization,
equity-based compensation expense, non-cash loss on impairment of
intangible assets, non-cash loss on extinguishment of debt,
non-cash loss on modification of warrants and the change in the
fair value of the warrant derivative, as each of those elements are
calculated in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA
should not be construed as a substitute for net income (loss) (as
determined in accordance with GAAP) for the purpose of analyzing
our operating performance or financial position, as Adjusted EBITDA
is not defined by GAAP.

three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 is included in the table below

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Sources of Liquidity
At September 30, 2019 we had cash and cash equivalents of
approximately $7,270,000 as compared to cash and cash equivalents
of $2,879,000 as of December 31, 2018.
Cash Flows
Cash used in operating activities. Net cash used in operating activities for the
nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $7,762,000
as compared to net cash used in operating activities of
$4,732,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Net cash
used in operating activities consisted of a net loss of
$20,181,000, $5,968,000 in changes in operating assets and
liabilities, offset by net non-cash operating expenses of
$18,387,000.
Net non-cash operating expenses included $4,199,000 in depreciation
and amortization, $12,418,000 in stock-based compensation expense,
$3,982,000 in stock and warrant issuance costs, $924,000 in
amortization of debt discounts, $889,000 in increase in inventory
reserves, $281,000 in stock issuance cost related to true-up
shares, $876,000 loss on warrant modification and $73,000 in
deferred taxes, partially offset by $4,334,000 related to the
change in fair value of warrant derivative liability and $911,000
related to the change in fair value of contingent
liability.
Changes in operating assets and liabilities were attributable to
decreases in working capital related to changes in accounts
receivable of $31,325,000, inventory of $958,000, prepaid expenses
and other current assets of $1,411,000, accrued distributor
compensation of $37,000, deferred revenues of $307,000, and income
taxes receivable of $233,000. Increases in working capital related
to changes in accounts payable of $26,148,000 and increases in
accrued expenses and other liabilities of $2,155,000.
Cash used in investing activities. Net cash used in
investing activities for the nine
months ended September 30, 2019 was $6,102,000 as compared
to net cash used in investing activities of $302,000 for the
nine months ended September 30,
2018. Net cash used in investing activities included $2,310,000 in
payments made towards the construction of a large mill in
Nicaragua, $1,000,000 in cash paid related to the acquisition of
Khrysos, offset by cash acquired of $75,000 and $288,000 for the
purchase of land for Khrysos. The remaining expenditures consisted
of primarily leasehold improvements and other purchases of property
and equipment.
Cash provided by financing activities. Net cash provided by financing activities was
$18,206,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as
compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $6,325,000
for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
Net cash provided by financing activities consisted of net proceeds
of $15,319,000 from issuance of equity and convertible notes,
$5,214,000 from the exercise of stock options and warrants and
$102,000 from at the market issuance of shares, offset by $275,000
from net payments on line of credit, $108,000 in payments
to reduce notes payable, $568,000 in payments related to
convertible notes payable, $333,000 in payments related to
contingent acquisition debt, $1,099,000 in payments related to
capital lease financing obligations and $46,000 in dividends
paid.
Future Liquidity Needs
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared and presented on a basis assuming we will continue as
a going concern. Net cash used in operating activities was
$7,762,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to
net cash used in operating activities of $4,732,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2018. We do not currently believe that
our existing cash resources are sufficient to meet our anticipated
needs over the next twelve months from the date hereof. Based on
our current cash levels and our current rate of cash requirements,
we will need to raise additional capital and will need to further
reduce our expenses from current levels. As discussed in Other
Relationship Transactions in Note 1 to the condensed consolidated
financial statements, we could experience further restraint on
liquidity if, in the unlikely event, we do not collect the
receivable balance with H&H Export in full. These factors raise substantial doubt about our
ability to continue as a going concern.
During
the nine months ended September
30, 2019, our operations did not generate sufficient cash to meet
our operating needs and we supplemented the revenue generated from
operations with significant cash proceeds from several debt and
equity offerings. We raised additional capital through equity,
convertible notes offerings and the use of the ATM
Agreement.
However, despite such actions, we do not believe
that our existing cash resources are
sufficient to meet our anticipated needs over the next twelve
months from the date hereof. We are also considering
additional alternatives, including, but not limited to equity
financings and debt financings. Depending on market conditions, we
cannot be sure that additional capital will be available when
needed or that, if available, it will be obtained on terms
favorable to us or to our stockholders.
We
anticipate our bottom line, excluding non-cash expenses, will
continue to improve and we intend to make additional cost
reductions in non-essential expenses.
Failure
to raise additional funds from the issuance of equity securities
and failure to implement cost reductions could adversely affect our
ability to operate as a going concern. There can be no assurance
that any cost reductions, implemented will correct our going
concern issue. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might be necessary from the outcome of this
uncertainty.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
There were no off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30,
2019.
Contractual Obligations
There were no material changes from those disclosed in our most
recent annual report.
Critical Accounting Policies
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America, which require us to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements and revenues and expenses during
the periods reported. Actual results could differ from those
estimates. Information with respect to our critical accounting
policies which we believe could have the most significant effect on
our reported results and require subjective or complex judgments by
management is contained in Item 7, Management’s Discussion
and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of
our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
2018.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recent accounting pronouncements are disclosed in Note 1 to the
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
ITEM 3. Quantitative and
Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
As a Smaller Reporting Company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the
Exchange Act and in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, we are
electing scaled disclosure reporting obligations and therefore are
not required to provide the information requested by this Item 3 of
Part I.
ITEM 4. Controls and
Procedures
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and
Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management,
including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,
we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and
procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of
September 30, 2019, the end of the quarterly fiscal period covered
by this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that there
was a material weakness in the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting that was identified during the fourth
quarter of 2018 for the commercial coffee segment relating to not
having proper processes and controls in place to require sufficient
documentation of significant agreements and arrangements in
accounting for significant transactions with respect to certain operations in Nicaragua.
Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures
as of the end of the period covered by this report and upon that
discovery, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report,
although we have made improvements, our disclosure controls and
procedures were still not effective to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or
submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized
and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s
rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial
Reporting
There were no significant changes in our internal controls over
financial reporting that occurred during our third quarter of
fiscal year 2019. We are in the process of updating our current
policies and implementing procedures and controls over the
documentation of significant agreements and arrangements. We will
continue to assess the effectiveness of our internal control over
financial reporting and take steps to remediate any potentially
material weaknesses expeditiously.
PART II. OTHER
INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are from time to time, the subject of claims and suits arising
out of matters related to our business. We are a party to litigation at the present time and
may become party to litigation in the future. In general,
litigation claims can be expensive, and time consuming to bring or
defend against and could result in settlements or damages that
could significantly affect financial results. It is not possible to
predict the final resolution of the current litigation to which we
are party to, and the impact of certain of these matters on our
business, results of operations, and financial condition could be
material. Regardless of the outcome, litigation has adversely
impacted our business because of defense costs, diversion of
management resources and other factors.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Any investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk.
Investors should carefully consider the risks described in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on April 15, 2019,
and all of the information contained in our public filings before
deciding whether to purchase our common stock. The following
information and updates should be read in conjunction with the
information disclosed in Part 1, Item 1A,
“Risk Factors,” contained in our Annual Report on Form
10-K as filed with the SEC on April 15, 2019. Except as set forth
below, there have been no material revisions to the “Risk
Factors” as set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as
filed with the SEC on April 15, 2019.
There is substantial risk about our ability to continue as a going
concern, which may hinder our ability to obtain future
financing.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of
September 30, 2019 have been prepared and presented on a basis
assuming we will continue as a going concern. We have sustained
significant net losses during the nine months ended September 30,
2019 of $20,181,000 compared to $11,332,000 in the nine months
ended September 30, 2018. Net cash used in operating activities was
$7,762,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to
net cash used in operating activities of $4,732,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2018. As discussed in Accounts
Receivable and Other Relationship Transactions in Note 1 to the
condensed consolidated financial statements, we could experience
further restraint on liquidity if we do not collect the accounts
receivable balance with H&H Export in full, which we believe is
not likely based on current negotiations. We do not currently
believe that its existing cash resources are sufficient to meet our
anticipated needs over the next twelve months from the date hereof.
Based on our current cash levels as of September 30, 2019, our
current rate of cash requirements, we will need to raise additional
capital and we will need to significantly reduce our expenses from
current levels to be able to continue as a going
concern. There can be no assurance that we can raise capital
upon favorable terms, if at all, or that we can significantly
reduce our expenses.
A significant portion of our coffee segment revenue and purchases
has been generated from sales to one customer and one
supplier.
The
termination of our relationship with H&H Export would adversely
affect our business. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019
and 2018, our commercial coffee segment had one customer, H&H
Export, that individually approximated 74% and 20% of total revenue
of our commercial coffee segment, respectively.
For the
nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we sold
approximately $35,576,000 and $3,915,000 of green coffee beans to
H&H Export, respectively. In addition, for the nine months
ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, we made purchases of
approximately $31,233,000 and $8,986,000 from green coffee
producers, where H&H Export serves as their agent. These
purchases approximated 88% and 74% of total coffee segment
purchases, respectively.
As of
September 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, CLR's accounts payable
for vendor related purchases from green coffee producers, agented
by H&H Export, were approximately $23,820,000 and $1,633,000,
respectively. As of September 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018,
CLR's accounts receivable for customer related revenue by H&H
Export were approximately $31,225,000 and $673,000, respectively.
Of the $31,225,000 accounts receivable balance as of September 30,
2019, $23,569,000 is past due. We are collaborating with H&H
Export, our green coffee suppliers, and third parties in Nicaragua
to develop a sourcing solution to provide us with access to a
continued supply of green coffee beans and solutions for funding of
the continued operations of our green coffee distribution business.
Management has assessed the collectability of accounts receivable
from H&H Export and believes collectability is probable due to
our history with H&H Export and our continual communication
about future contractual agreements.
In
conjunction with the collaborators, we have decided that during
these negotiations any repayment or settlement of the accounts
receivable or payable balances will be stayed. We expect this
financing arrangement to be finalized by December 31, 2019 at which
time the accounts receivable and accounts payable balances are
expected to be settled. In the event that this financing
arrangement does not materialize, which we believe is not likely
based on current negotiations, we expect the be able to collect the
outstanding accounts receivable balance in full shortly after this
determination is made; however, if the facts or circumstances
change, we will continue to reassess the collectability of these
amounts and record a reserve as appropriate.
Risks Related to the Series D Preferred Stock
Our Series D Preferred Stock is subordinate to our existing and
future debt, and interests of the Series D Preferred Stock could be
diluted by the issuance of additional preferred shares and by other
transactions.
The
Series D Preferred Stock ranks junior to all of our existing and
future debt and to other non-equity claims on us and our assets
available to satisfy claims against us, including claims in
bankruptcy, liquidation or similar proceedings. Our future debt may
include restrictions on our ability to pay distributions to
preferred stockholders. Our charter currently authorizes the
issuance of up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or
more classes or series. As of the date of this filing, there are
161,135 shares of Series A Preferred Stock designated all of which
are outstanding, 1,052,631 shares of Series B Preferred Stock
designated of which 129,332 shares of Series B Preferred Stock are
outstanding and 700,000 shares
of Series C Preferred Stock designated of which no shares of Series
C Preferred Stock are outstanding, and 460,000 shares of Series D
Preferred Stock designated of which 333,500 shares of Series D
Preferred Stock are outstanding. Subject to limitations prescribed
by Delaware law and our charter, our Board of Directors is
authorized to issue, from our authorized but unissued shares of
capital stock, preferred stock in such classes or series as our
Board of Directors may determine and to establish from time to time
the number of shares of preferred stock to be included in any such
class or series. The issuance of additional shares of Series D
Preferred Stock or additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock,
Series B Preferred Stock or Series C Preferred Stock or another
series of preferred stock designated as ranking on parity with the
Series D Preferred Stock would dilute the interests of the holders
of shares of the Series D Preferred Stock, and the issuance of
shares of any class or series of our capital stock expressly
designated as ranking senior to the Series D Preferred Stock or the
incurrence of additional indebtedness could affect our ability to
pay distributions on, redeem or pay the liquidation preference on
the Series D Preferred Stock. The Series D Preferred Stock does not
contain any terms relating to or limiting our indebtedness or
affording the holders of shares of the Series D Preferred Stock
protection in the event of a highly leveraged or other transaction,
including a merger or the sale, lease or conveyance of all or
substantially all our assets, that might adversely affect the
holders of shares of the Series D Preferred Stock, so long as the
rights, preferences, privileges or voting power of the Series D
Preferred Stock or the holders thereof are not materially and
adversely affected.
The Series D Preferred Stock has not been rated.
Our
Series D Preferred Stock has not been rated by any nationally
recognized statistical rating organization, which may negatively
affect their market value and your ability to sell such shares. No
assurance can be given, however, that one or more rating agencies
might not independently determine to issue such a rating or that
such a rating, if issued, would not adversely affect the market
price of our Series D Preferred Stock. In addition, we may elect in
the future to obtain a rating of our Series D Preferred Stock,
which could adversely impact the market price of our Series D
Preferred Stock. Ratings only reflect the views of the rating
agency or agencies issuing the ratings and such ratings could be
revised downward or withdrawn entirely at the discretion of the
issuing rating agency if, in its judgment, circumstances so
warrant. Any such downward revision or withdrawal of a rating could
have an adverse effect on the market price of our Series D
Preferred Stock.
A holder of shares of the Series D Preferred Stock has extremely
limited voting rights.
The
voting rights as a holder of shares of the Series D Preferred Stock
are limited. Our shares of common stock are the only class of our
securities carrying full voting rights. Voting rights for holders
of shares of the Series D Preferred Stock exist primarily with
respect to adverse changes in the terms of the Series D Preferred
Stock and the creation of additional classes or series of preferred
shares that are senior to the Series D Preferred
Stock.
Our cash available for distributions may not be sufficient to pay
distributions on the Series D Preferred Stock at expected levels,
and we cannot assure you of our ability to pay distributions in the
future. We may use borrowed funds or funds from other sources to
pay distributions, which may adversely impact our
operations.
We
intend to pay regular monthly distributions to holders of our
Series D Preferred Stock. Distributions declared by us will be
authorized by our Board of Directors in its sole discretion out of
assets legally available for distribution and will depend upon a
number of factors, including our earnings, our financial condition,
restrictions under applicable law, our need to comply with the
terms of our existing financing arrangements, the capital
requirements of our company and other factors as our Board of
Directors may deem relevant from time to time. We may be required
to fund distributions from working capital, proceeds of this
offering or a sale of assets to the extent distributions exceed
earnings or cash flows from operations. Funding distributions from
working capital would restrict our operations. If we are required
to sell assets to fund distributions, such asset sales may occur at
a time or in a manner that is not consistent with our disposition
strategy. If we borrow to fund distributions, our leverage ratios
and future interest costs would increase, thereby reducing our
earnings and cash available for distribution from what they
otherwise would have been. We may not be able to pay distributions
in the future. In addition, some of our distributions may be
considered a return of capital for income tax purposes. If we
decide to make distributions in excess of our current and
accumulated earnings and profits, such distributions would
generally be considered a return of capital for federal income tax
purposes to the extent of the holder’s adjusted tax basis in
its shares. A return of capital is not taxable, but it has the
effect of reducing the holder’s adjusted tax basis in its
investment. If distributions exceed the adjusted tax basis of a
holder’s shares, they will be treated as gain from the sale
or exchange of such stock.
We could be prevented from paying cash dividends on the Series D
Preferred Stock due to prescribed legal requirements.
Holders
of shares of Series D Preferred Stock do not have a right to
dividends on such shares unless declared or set aside for payment
by our Board of Directors. Under Delaware law, cash dividends on
capital stock may only be paid from “surplus” or, if
there is no “surplus,” from the corporation’s net
profits for the then-current or the preceding fiscal year. Unless
we operate profitably, our ability to pay cash dividends on the
Series D Preferred Stock would require the availability of adequate
“surplus,” which is defined as the excess, if any, of
net assets (total assets less total liabilities) over capital. Our
business may not generate sufficient cash flow from operations to
enable us to pay dividends on the Series D Preferred Stock when
payable. Further, even if adequate surplus is available to pay cash
dividends on the Series D Preferred Stock, we may not have
sufficient cash to pay dividends on the Series D Preferred
Stock.
Furthermore,
no dividends on Series D Preferred Stock shall be authorized by our
Board of Directors or paid, declared or set aside for payment by us
at any time when the authorization, payment, declaration or setting
aside for payment would be unlawful under Delaware law or any other
applicable law.
We may redeem the Series D Preferred Stock and you may not receive
dividends that you anticipate if we do redeem the Series
D.
On or
after September 23, 2022 we may, at our option, redeem the Series D
Preferred Stock, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to
time. Also, upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, we may, at
our option, redeem the Series D Preferred Stock, in whole or in
part, within 120 days after the first date on which such Change of
Control occurred. We may have an incentive to redeem the Series D
Preferred Stock voluntarily if market conditions allow us to issue
other preferred stock or debt securities at a rate that is lower
than the dividend rate on the Series D Preferred Stock. If we
redeem the Series D Preferred Stock, then from and after the
redemption date, dividends will cease to accrue on shares of Series
D Preferred Stock, the shares of Series D Preferred Stock shall no
longer be deemed outstanding and all rights as a holder of those
shares will terminate, except the right to receive the redemption
price plus accumulated and unpaid dividends, if any, payable upon
redemption.
Holders of shares of the Series D Preferred Stock should not expect
us to redeem the Series D Preferred Stock on or after the date they
become redeemable at our option.
The
Series D Preferred Stock will be a perpetual equity security. This
means that it will have no maturity or mandatory redemption date
and will not be redeemable at the option of the holders. The Series
D Preferred Stock may be redeemed by us at our option either in
whole or in part, from time to time, at any time on or after
September 23, 2022, or upon the occurrence of a Change of Control.
Any decision we may make at any time to propose a redemption of the
Series D Preferred Stock will depend upon, among other things, our
evaluation of our capital position, the composition of our
stockholders’ equity and general market conditions at that
time.
The Series D Preferred Stock is not convertible, and investors will
not realize a corresponding upside if the price of the common stock
increases.
The
Series D Preferred Stock is not convertible into shares of our
common stock and earns dividends at a fixed rate. Accordingly, an
increase in market price of our common stock will not necessarily
result in an increase in the market price of our Series D Preferred
Stock. The market value of the Series D Preferred Stock may depend
more on dividend and interest rates for other preferred stock,
commercial paper and other investment alternatives and our actual
and perceived ability to pay dividends on, and in the event of
dissolution satisfy the liquidation preference with respect to, the
Series D Preferred Stock.
The change of control provisions in the Series D Preferred Stock
may make it more difficult for a party to acquire us or discourage
a party from acquiring us.
The
change of control provisions in the Series D Preferred Stock may
have the effect of discouraging a third party from making an
acquisition proposal for us or of delaying, deferring or preventing
certain of our change of control transactions under circumstances
that otherwise could provide the holders of our Series D Preferred
Stock with the opportunity to realize a premium over the
then-current market price of such equity securities or that
stockholders may otherwise believe is in their best
interests.
Listing on NASDAQ does not guarantee a market for the Series D
Preferred Stock and the market price and trading volume of the
Series D Preferred Stock may fluctuate significantly.
The
Series D Preferred Stock is a new issue of securities recently
listed on NASDAQ However, an active and liquid trading market to
sell the Series D Preferred Stock may not develop or, even if it
develops, may not be sustained. Because the Series D Preferred
Stock has no stated maturity date, investors seeking liquidity may
be limited to selling their shares in the secondary market. If an
active trading market does not develop, the market price and
liquidity of the Series D Preferred Stock may be adversely
affected. Even if an active public market does develop, we cannot
guarantee you that the market price for the Series D Preferred
Stock will equal or exceed the price you pay for your Series D
Preferred Stock.
The
market determines the trading price for the Series D Preferred
Stock and may be influenced by many factors, including our history
of paying distributions on the Series D Preferred Stock, variations
in our financial results, the market for similar securities,
investors’ perception of us, our issuance of additional
preferred equity or indebtedness and general economic, industry,
interest rate and market conditions. Because the Series D Preferred
Stock carries a fixed distribution rate, its value in the secondary
market will be influenced by changes in interest rates and will
tend to move inversely to such changes. In particular, an increase
in market interest rates may result in higher yields on other
financial instruments and may lead purchasers of Series D Preferred
Stock to demand a higher yield on the price paid for the Series D
Preferred Stock, which could adversely affect the market price of
the Series D Preferred Stock.
If the Series D Preferred Stock is delisted, the ability to
transfer or sell shares of the Series D Preferred Stock may be
limited and the market value of the Series D Preferred Stock will
likely be materially adversely affected.
The
Series D Preferred Stock does not contain provisions that are
intended to protect investors if the Series D Preferred Stock is
delisted from the NASDAQ. If the Series D Preferred Stock is
delisted from the NASDAQ, investors’ ability to transfer or
sell shares of the Series D Preferred Stock will be limited and the
market value of the Series D Preferred Stock will likely be
materially adversely affected. Moreover, since the Series D
Preferred Stock has no stated maturity date, investors may be
forced to hold shares of the Series D Preferred Stock indefinitely
while receiving stated dividends thereon when, as and if authorized
by our Board of Directors and paid by us with no assurance as to
ever receiving the liquidation value thereof.
Market interest rates may have an effect on the value of the Series
D Preferred Stock.
One of
the factors that will influence the price of the Series D Preferred
Stock will be the distribution yield on the Series D Preferred
Stock (as a percentage of the market price of the Series D
Preferred Stock) relative to market interest rates. An increase in
market interest rates, which are currently at low levels relative
to historical rates, may lead prospective purchasers of the Series
D Preferred Stock to expect a higher distribution yield (and higher
interest rates would likely increase our borrowing costs and
potentially decrease funds available for distribution payments).
Thus, higher market interest rates could cause the market price of
the Series D Preferred Stock to decrease and reduce the amount of
funds that are available and may be used to make distribution
payments.
In the event of a liquidation, a holder of Series D Preferred Stock
may not receive the full amount of your liquidation
preference.
In the
event of our liquidation of the Company, the proceeds will be used
first to repay indebtedness and then to pay holders of shares of
the Series D Preferred Stock and any other class or series of our
capital stock ranking senior to or on parity with the Series D
Preferred Stock as to liquidation the amount of each holder’s
liquidation preference and accrued and unpaid distributions through
the date of payment. In the event we have insufficient funds to
make payments in full to holders of the shares of the Series D
Preferred Stock and any other class or series of our capital stock
ranking senior to or on parity with the Series D Preferred Stock as
to liquidation, such funds will be distributed ratably among such
holders and such holders may not realize the full amount of their
liquidation preference.
We are generally restricted from issuing shares of other series of
preferred stock that rank senior the Series D Preferred Stock as to
dividend rights, rights upon liquidation or voting rights, but may
do so with the requisite consent of the holders of the Series D
Preferred Stock; and, further, no such consent is required for an
increase in the number of shares of Series D Preferred Stock or the
issuance of additional shares of Series D Preferred Stock or series
of preferred stock ranking pari passu with the Series D Preferred
Stock so long as such increase in the number of shares of Series D
Preferred Stock or issuance of such new series of preferred stock
does not provide for, in the aggregate (taken together with any
previously issued shares of Series D Preferred Stock), the payment
of annual dividends on (in the case of additional shares of Series
D Preferred Stock), or on parity with (in the case of any other
series of preferred stock) in excess of $2,437,500.
We are
allowed to issue shares of other series of preferred stock that
rank above the Series D Preferred Stock as to dividend payments and
rights upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our
affairs, only with the approval of the holders of at least
two-thirds of the outstanding Series D Preferred Stock; however, we
are allowed to increase the number of shares of Series D Preferred
Stock and/or additional series of preferred stock that would rank
equally to the Series D Preferred Stock as to dividend payments and
rights upon our liquidation or winding up of our affairs without
first obtaining the approval of the holders of our Series D
Preferred Stock, so long as such increase in the number of shares
of Series D Preferred Stock or issuance of such new series of
preferred stock does not provide for, in the aggregate (taken
together with any previously issued shares of Series D Preferred
Stock), the payment of annual dividends on (in the case of
additional shares of Series D Preferred Stock), or on parity with
(in the case of any other series of preferred stock) in excess of
$2,437,500. The issuance of additional shares of Series D Preferred
Stock and/or additional series of preferred stock could have the
effect of reducing the amounts available to the Series D Preferred
Stock upon our liquidation or dissolution or the winding up of our
affairs. It also may reduce dividend payments on the Series D
Preferred Stock if we do not have sufficient funds to pay dividends
on all Series D Preferred Stock outstanding and other classes or
series of stock with equal or senior priority with respect to
dividends. Future issuances and sales of senior or pari passu preferred stock, or the
perception that such issuances and sales could occur, may cause
prevailing market prices for the Series D Preferred Stock and our
common stock to decline and may adversely affect our ability to
raise additional capital in the financial markets at times and
prices favorable to us.
The market price of the Series D Preferred Stock could be
substantially affected by various factors.
The
market price of the Series D Preferred Stock could be subject to
wide fluctuations in response to numerous factors. The price of the
Series D Preferred Stock that will prevail in the market after this
offering may be higher or lower than the offering price depending
on many factors, some of which are beyond our control and may not
be directly related to our operating performance.
These
factors include, but are not limited to, the
following:
|
●
|
prevailing
interest rates, increases in which may have an adverse effect on
the market price of the Series D Preferred Stock;
|
|
●
|
trading
prices of similar securities;
|
|
●
|
our
history of timely dividend payments;
|
|
●
|
the
annual yield from dividends on the Series D Preferred Stock as
compared to yields on other financial instruments;
|
|
●
|
general
economic and financial market conditions;
|
|
●
|
government
action or regulation;
|
|
●
|
the
financial condition, performance and prospects of us and our
competitors;
|
|
●
|
changes
in financial estimates or recommendations by securities analysts
with respect to us or our competitors in our industry;
|
|
●
|
our
issuance of additional preferred equity or debt securities;
and
|
|
●
|
actual
or anticipated variations in quarterly operating results of us and
our competitors.
|
As a result of these and other factors, investors who purchase the
Series D Preferred Stock in this offering may experience a
decrease, which could be substantial and rapid, in the market price
of the Series D Preferred Stock, including decreases unrelated to
our operating performance or prospects.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF
PROCEEDS
All sales of our common stock that were not registered under the
Securities Act have been previously disclosed in our filings with
the Securities and Exchange Commission except for the sales of
unregistered securities set forth below.
On
March 1, 2019, we executed the first amendment to consulting
agreement (the “First Amendment”) to the April 1, 2018
agreement with Ignition Capital,
LLC (“Ignition Capital”), pursuant to which
Ignition Capital agreed to provide investor relations services. In
accordance with the First Amendment, for services performed, we
issued 55,000 shares of restricted common stock. We issued the
securities in reliance on the exemption from registration provided
for under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
On July
12, 2019 we closed our fifth and final tranche of our 2019 January
Private Placement debt offering pursuant to which we entered into a
subscription agreement with one (1) additional credited investors
that had a substantial pre-existing relationship with us pursuant
to which we received aggregate gross proceeds of $200,000 and we
issued to such investors notes in the aggregate principal amount of
$200,000 and an aggregate of 4,000 shares of common stock. The
placement agent Corinthian Partners, LLC received 1,000 shares of
common stock for the fifth tranche. Each note matures 24 months
after issuance, bears interest at a rate of six percent (6%) per
annum. We issued the securities in reliance on the exemption from
registration provided for under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities
Act. We relied on this exemption from registration for private
placements based in part on the representations made the investors
with respect to their status as accredited investors, as such term
is defined in Rule 501(a) of the Securities Act.
On
August 1, 2019, our board of directors awarded Benchmark 20,000

5,750 shares of restricted common stock to the Denis Fortin Estate

63,156 shares of common stock at $4.75 per share. In conjunction
with this issuance as compensation to the initial placement agent
for the 2018 warrant issued with an offering, we issued Corinthian
Partners, LLC., 600 shares of restricted common stock, which
represented 10% of the shares issued to Thomas and Kathy Bibb. We
issued the securities in reliance on the exemption from
