NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS AND LIQUIDITY

Organization and Operations

These financial statements are those of Hempacco and its subsidiaries.

Hempacco Co., Inc. (the “Company” or “Hempacco”) was formed on April 1, 2019, as a Nevada corporation.

On April 23, 2021, the Company filed a second amendment to its Articles of Incorporation changing the name of the company from The Hempacco Co., Inc. to Hempacco Co., Inc.

The Company merged with, and became a subsidiary of, Green Globe International, Inc. (“GGII” or “Green Globe International”) on May 21, 2021.

Hempacco manufactures and distributes hemp smokables both under its own name and white label products for clients. The Company also owns high-tech CBD vending kiosks that it plans to place in retail venues throughout the US, in conjunction with a number of joint venture partners.

On October 6, 2021, the California Assembly Bill Number 45 (“AB 45”) was passed into law. Despite the fact that industrial hemp is federally legal and not a controlled substance, this bill prohibits the sale of “inhalable” hemp products in California. However, the manufacture of inhalable hemp products for the sole purpose of sale in other states is not prohibited. This ban on any kind of smokable flower will remain in force until such time as the California Legislature enact a bill to tax the product. It is also legal to manufacture Delta-8 products containing less than 0.3% THC for sale in another State.

Because of the risk and uncertainty regarding the potential market for smokable products in California, the Company has focused on building its distribution network in other States and other Countries. Celebrity joint ventures bring a national demand for our products.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company entered into the following Joint Ventures and other significant agreements.

Effective January 1, 2023, HempBox Vending, Inc. (“HVI”) a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company entered into a joint venture operating agreement (the “Operating Agreement”) with Weedsies Mobile, LLC (“Weedsies)”, a Florida limited liability company, to operate a joint venture entity (the “Joint Venture”) in Florida by the name of Weedsies Vending, LLC. The Joint Venture was created to market the hemp related products of Weedsies using automated kiosks provided by HVI. Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the Joint Venture will be owned 50% each by HVI and Weedsies with both entities required to fund $1,000 to the Joint Venture. HVI will be responsible for provision of the self-service vending kiosks and will be responsible for technology and marketing support as well as accounting, financial services, and tax preparation for the Joint Venture. Weedsies will be responsible for installations, repair, customer service, marketing support, billing, and reconciliations to the Joint Venture.

Effective January 24, 2023, the Company entered into a joint venture operating agreement (the “Operating Agreement”) with Alfalfa Holdings, LLC (“Alfalfa”), a California limited liability company, to operate a joint venture entity (the “Joint Venture”) in California by the name of HPDG, LLC. The Joint Venture was created to market and sell hemp smokables products. Pursuant to the Operating Agreement, the Joint Venture will be owned 50% each by the Company and Alfalfa. The Company is required to fund $10,000 to the Joint Venture, manufacture product, and provide accounting, inventory management, staff training, and trade show and marketing services. Alfalfa is required to provide online marketing and promotion, design and branding, and brand management and development services as well as arranging appearances by Snoop Dogg at Joint Venture events. The appearances by Snoop Dog are subject to professional availability and a separate Talent License and Services Agreement between the Joint Venture and Alfalfa as described below (the “Services Agreement”).

Table of Contents

In connection with the Operating Agreement, effective January 24, 2023, HPDG, LLC entered into the Services Agreement with Spanky’s Clothing, Inc., and Calvin Broadus, Jr. p/k/a “Snoop Dogg” (collectively “Talent”), pursuant to which Talent will endorse the HDPG, LLC’s smokable hemp products and serve as a spokesperson for the products in the United States. HDPG, LLC shall (i) pay Talent’s legal expenses of $7,500 in connection with entering into the Operating Agreement and Services Agreement; (ii) cause the Company to issue to Talent a fully vested warrant to acquire 450,000 shares of Company common stock at a strike price of $1.00 per share (the “Talent Warrants”); (iii) cause the Company to issue to Talent’s designee a fully vested warrant to acquire 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a strike price of $1.00 per share (the “Talent Designee Warrants”); and (iv) pay Talent royalties of 10% of HDPG, LLC’s gross revenue, with minimum annual royalty payments of $450,000 by the end of the first two years of the initial term of the Services Agreement, an additional $600,000 by the end of the third year of the initial term, and an additional $1,200,000 by the end of the fourth year of the initial term. On or about January 30, 2023, the Company issued the Talent Warrants and Talent Designee Warrants as required by the Services Agreement (See Note 9).

On February 8, 2023, the Company signed, as guarantor, a lease agreement between US Tobacco de Mexico S.A. de C.V. (“US Tobacco de Mexico,” a related party), which is 100% owned by UST Mexico, Inc. (“UST Mexico,” a related party), and Grupo Fimher, S. de R.I. de C.V. (“Fimher”) for the lease of 43,000 sf of manufacturing space located in Tijuana, Mexico. The term of the lease is three years, commencing on March 1, 2023. The first year’s rent payment is $18,622 per month, with 3.5% inflation increases on the first and second anniversaries of the lease. The estimated total contingent liability at lease inception will be $694,159. Hempacco Co., Inc. and Hempacco Paper Co., Inc. are sub-tenants of US Tobacco de Mexico and will manufacture products at this facility. A liability for the guarantee has not been recorded as of March 31, 2023 as the amount is not probable.

On February 8, 2023, the Company’s subsidiary, Hempacco Paper Co., Inc., leased the above-referenced space for an initial period of one year for a monthly rental of $2,500. Hempacco Paper will use this facility for the manufacture of all its paper products.

Effective February 1, 2023, the Company through its representative in Warsaw, Poland, filed the equivalent of Articles of Incorporation with the court to create Hempacco Europe Sp.z.o.o. (an LLC equivalent), the corporate entity through which the Company will distribute its smokable products throughout the EU. Ownership of the entity rests 99% with the Company, and 1% with and Jakub Duda, an individual.

On February 9, 2023, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Boustead Securities, LLC, and EF Hutton, a division of Benchmark Investments, LLC, as representatives (the “Representatives”) of the underwriters (the “Underwriters”) in connection with the public offering of additional shares of common stock of the Company. The Underwriting Agreement provides for the offer and sale of 4,200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Common Stock”) at a price to the public of $1.50 per share (the “Offering”). In connection therewith, the Company agreed to issue to the Representatives and/or their designees 338,100 warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock, exercisable from February 14, 2023, through February 10, 2028, at $1.50 per share subject to adjustment as provided therein (the “Representatives’ Warrants”, see Note 9). The Company also granted the Underwriters an option (the “Option”) for a period of 45 days to purchase up to an additional 630,000 shares of Common Stock. The Offering is being made pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-269566) (the “Registration Statement”), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 9, 2023.

On February 11, 2023, the Underwriters exercised the Option in full, and on February 14, 2023, the Offering was completed. At the closing of the Offering, the Company (i) sold an aggregate of 4,830,000 shares of Common Stock for total gross proceeds of $7,245,000, and (ii) issued the Representatives’ Warrants as directed by the Representatives. After deducting underwriter commissions and Offering expenses, the Company received net proceeds of $6,610,400.

The Underwriting Agreement includes customary representations, warranties, and covenants by the Company. It also provides that the Company will indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or contribute to payments the Underwriter may be required to make because of these liabilities.

Going Concern Matters

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”), which contemplates the Company’s continuation as a going concern. The Company incurred a net loss of $2,378,582 during the three months ended March 31, 2023, and has an accumulated deficit of $12,828,648 as of March 31, 2023. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company’s net cash used in operations was $1,956,496.

Management intends to raise additional operating funds through equity and/or debt offerings. However, there can be no assurance management will be successful in its endeavors.

There are no assurances that the Company will be able to either (1) achieve a level of revenues adequate to generate sufficient cash flow from operations; or (2) obtain additional financing through either private placement, public offerings and/or bank financing necessary to support its working capital requirements. To the extent that funds generated from operations and any private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing are insufficient, the Company will have to raise additional working capital. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on terms acceptable to the Company. If adequate working capital is not available to the Company, it may be required to curtail or cease its operations.

Due to uncertainties related to these matters, there exists a substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. If we are not able to successfully execute our future operating plans, our financial condition and results of operation may be materially adversely affected, and we may not be able to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

Our unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. As permitted under those rules, we omitted certain footnotes or other financial information that are normally required by US GAAP for annual financial statements. We have included all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim period. These adjustments consist of normal and recurring items. Our consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements and related notes filed with the SEC on May 12, 2023. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented.

Principles of Consolidation

The financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Joint Venture entities where the company owns at least 51% and controls the accounting and administration of the entities will be accounted for under ASC 810-10 which will allow full consolidation of the assets and liabilities into the Company’s balance sheet, with non-controlling interests being calculated and disclosed in the balance sheet and operating statement of the Company. Joint Venture entities where the company owns less than 51% are evaluated for treatment as variable interest entities. The Company may provide accounting and administration for these entities, may have board of director control, and may provide the majority of funding for these entities. Any entities not falling within this criterion will be accounted for under ASC 323-30. These consolidated financial statements include the operating results and the assets of the nine currently operating, joint venture entities, all of which have been deemed variable interest entities for the period ended March 31, 2023. The non-controlling interests of these ventures have been disclosed on the consolidated balance sheet and income statement.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Some of these judgments can be subjective and complex, and, consequently, actual results may differ from these estimates.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

Pursuant to ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, basic net income and net loss per share are computed by dividing the net income and net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income and net loss per share is the same as basic net income and net loss per share when their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect due to our continuing net losses.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, and 2022, the following outstanding dilutive securities were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share as the result of the computation was anti-dilutive.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) establishes a framework for all fair value measurements and expands disclosures related to fair value measurement and developments. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

ASC 820 requires that assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

	·	Level 1—Quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets or observable inputs.
	·	Level 2—Significant other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data; and
	·	Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data.

The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, accounts receivable – related parties, inventory, deposits and prepayments, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, accounts payable – related parties, customer pre-paid invoices & deposits, other short-term liabilities – equipment loan, operating lease – right of use liability – short term portion approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these items.

Non-Controlling Interests

The Company accounts for the non-controlling interests in its subsidiaries and joint ventures in accordance with U.S. GAAP. and ASC 805-20.

The Company has chosen to record the minority interests (NCI’s) in the equity section of the balance sheet, and on the income statement, the profit or loss attributable to the minority interests will be reported as a separate non-operating line item.

The Company measures its non-controlling interests using the percentage of ownership interest held by the respective NCI’s during the accounting period.

NOTE 6 – OPERATING LEASES – RIGHT OF USE ASSETS

The Company entered into a 72-month agreement to lease approximately 6,300 square feet of manufacturing, storage, and office space on January 1, 2020, for a period of 6 years with Primus Logistics, Inc. (“Primus“), a related party that is controlled by the Company’s CEO. Approximately 1,800 square feet (28.5%) is used as a manufacturing facility with the balance used as corporate offices and storage. There was no security deposit paid, and the lease carries no optional extension periods. The term of the lease is for six years. At inception of the lease, the Company recorded a right of use asset and liability. The Company used an effective borrowing rate of 6.23% within the calculation.

In addition to the rental of manufacturing space, the Company transacts routine storage business with Primus. The primary business of Primus is the provision of cold storage facilities used for perishable raw materials and finished products from pharmaceutical manufacturing companies. The company stores its raw hemp smokable material with Primus.

Base monthly rent commenced at $10,000 per month, with subsequent defined annual increases. All operating expenses are borne by the lessee. Amounts payable to the related party for rent as of March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, were $0 and $5,163 respectively. On March 31, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the amounts of $155,465 and $25,000 respectively, of prepaid rent were included in the deposits and prepayments account.

Operating lease right of use (“ROU”) assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Generally, the implicit rate of interest in arrangements is not readily determinable and the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate is a hypothetical rate based on its understanding of what its credit rating would be. The operating lease ROU asset includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Our variable lease payments primarily consist of maintenance and other operating expenses from our real estate leases. Variable lease payments are excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities and are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

The following are the expected lease payments as of March 31, 2023, including the total amount of imputed interest/present value discount.

Year Ending December 31	Operating Leases
2023	$	98,336
2024		135,049
2025		139,100
Total lease payments		372,485
Less: Imputed interest/present value discount		(31,338	)
Total	$	341,147

Rent expenses was $32,779 and $31,827 during the three months ended March 31, 2023, and 2022.

On December 11, 2019, the Company entered into a loan for $1,500,000 within an initial maturity of 18 months to fund the purchase of equipment to use in its production. The loan did not have a stated interest rate, and, therefore, the Company calculated an imputed discount of $109,627, which was amortized over 18 months. As of December 31, 2022, the discount had been completely amortized. The loan is secured by the production equipment.

On January 6, 2022, the first payment of $50,000 was made to the lender. The Company was granted forbearance with respect to further loan payments until the Company’s planned IPO was funded.

The promissory notes carried interest at the rate of between 8% and 12% and matured between May 4, 2022, and October 23, 2022. The notes automatically converted at 75% of the 30-day average bid price of the obligor common stock (or the public company common stock as the case may be), with the exception of the $50,000 Taverna 12% Note, which converted at the lower of $1.00 per share or the current market price of Hempacco stock.

See Note 12 below for further details.

In addition to the other compensation delineated in the agreement, the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Representative (and/or its designees) on the closing date of an IPO or Other Financing as applicable, five-year warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. The warrants are equal to 7% of the gross offering amount at an initial exercise price of 150% of the offering price per share in the IPO, or 100% of the offering price in Other Financing.

On January 25, 2023, the Company issued fully vested warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to non-employees as compensation for services (“Compensation Warrants”). The Compensation Warrants have an exercise price of $1.00 and a contractual life of 5 years.

As of March 31, 2023, total compensation costs related to the common stock warrants not yet recognized amounted to approximately $361,971 and will be recognized over a period of approximately 4.83 years. The amounts were recorded as prepaid compensation, for which there is a current and noncurrent portion that is amortized over the life of the contract. As of March 31, 2023, the current portion of $74,891 is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the balance sheet and the noncurrent portion of $287,080 is included in other assets. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, $12,482 was amortized into expense.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in Item 8 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Hempacco Co., Inc., collectively with its subsidiaries, is referred to in this Form 10-Q as “Hempacco”, “we”, “us”, “our”, “registrant”, or “Company”.

Overview

We are focused on Disrupting Tobacco™ by manufacturing and selling nicotine-free and tobacco-free alternatives to traditional cigarettes. We utilize a proprietary, patented spraying technology for terpene infusion and patent-pending flavored filter infusion technology to manufacture hemp- and herb-based smokable alternatives.

We have conducted research and development in the smokables space and are engaged in the manufacturing and sale of smokable hemp and herb products, including The Real Stuff™ Hemp Smokables. Our operational segments include private label manufacturing and sales, intellectual property licensing, and the development and sales of inhouse brands using patented counter displays. Our private label customers include well-known and established companies in the cannabis and tobacco-alternatives industries, and we currently own approximately 600 kiosk vending machines which we plan to refurbish and use to distribute our products in a wider fashion under our HempBox Vending brand.

Our hemp cigarette production facility, located in San Diego, California, has the capacity to produce up to 30 million cigarettes monthly. From our facility, we can small-to-large quantities of product—from single displays of product to targeted retail locations to truckloads of product to private label customers—with in-house processing, packing, and shipping capabilities.

Results of Operations

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023, Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2022

Revenue

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company generated revenues of $424,360, compared to $971,166 in revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, $404,999 of our revenue was from product sales to third parties, $6,559 was from product sales to related parties, $12,052 was from manufacturing services, and $750 was from kiosk revenue, as compared to $957,566 in product sales to third parties, $1,000 in product sales to related parties, and $12,600 in manufacturing services to third parties during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in revenues during 2023, as compared to 2022, was a result of a temporary decline in orders from one of our largest customers as well as the passing of AB 45 by the State of California, which banned the sale of smokable hemp products in California until such time as the legislature decided on a tax policy with regard to these products.

Operating Costs and Expenses

The Company had total cost of goods sold of $521,721 and $799,006, during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease in relative total cost of goods sold is primarily due to decreasing sales and production in the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to the same period in 2022.

The Company incurred general and administrative expenses of $737,174 during the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $731,075 during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The Company also incurred related party general and administrative expenses of $215,283 during the three months ended March 31, 2023, consisting of senior management consulting fees, write offs of related party receivables and rent payable on our premises leased in San Diego, California, compared to related party general and administrative expenses of $105,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2022, for related party fees and rent. The landlord, Primus Logistics, is 90%-owned by Sandro Piancone, the Company’s CEO.

Table of Contents

The Company’s sales and marketing expenses increased to $202,425 during the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to sales and marketing expenses of $196,244 during the three months ended March 31, 2022, as a result of us significantly expanding sales and marketing activities during the 2022 fiscal year as we expanded our operations. Sales and marketing expenses include related party sales and marketing expense of $22,596 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $0 during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the company created a one-time allowance for the potential non-payment of certain inter-company receivables in the amount of $1,125,000, compared to an allowance of $0 during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Net Loss

The Company had a net loss of $2,378,582 and $877,216 respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. The increase in net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2023, was due primarily to significant additional one-off expenses incurred in connection with the provision for impairment of inter-company loans receivable. Additionally, increases in operations of the Company resulted in additional overhead expenses.

Assets & Liabilities

The following table sets forth key components of our balance sheet as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

	As of
	March 31,		December 31,
	2023		2022

Current Assets	$	5,999,181	$	1,907,807
Property and Equipment		7,228,761		7,220,565
Other Assets		611,483		353,807
Total Assets		13,839,425		9,482,179
Current Liabilities		1,430,209		1,520,434
Total Liabilities		1,660,056		1,921,980
Stockholder’s Equity (for Hempacco)		12,287,725		7,560,199
Total Liabilities and Equity	$	13,839,425	$	9,482,179

As of March 31, 2023, current assets increased to $5,999,181, from $1,907,807 as of December 31, 2022. This increase was primarily due to the receipt of net proceeds of $6,610,400 from our second public offering of common shares in February 2023. As of March 31, 2023, current liabilities decreased to $1,430,209 from $1,520,434 as of December 31, 2022, primarily due to decreases in trade accounts payable and customer deposits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The table below, for the periods indicated, provides selected cash flow information:

	Three Months Ended March 31, 2023			Three Months Ended March 31, 2022

Net cash used in operating activities	$	(1,956,496	)	$	(1,134,464	)
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities		(36,187	)		35,988
Net cash provided by financing activities		5,480,882			172,005
Net change in cash	$	3,488,199		$	(926,421	)

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

We had cash used in operating activities of $1,956,496 in the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to cash used in operating activities of $1,134,464 during the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in cash used in operating activities of $822,032 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, is primarily attributable to the increase in net operating loss of $1,501,366, adjusted by a reserve for related party loans of $1,125,000 plus increases attributable to increases in accounts payable and decreases in accounts receivable.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

We had cash used in investing activities of $36,187 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to cash provided by investing activities of $35,988 for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease of $72,175 was primarily due to the purchase of additional plant and equipment of $39,061, and the acquisition of patent and license fee in connection with a joint venture in the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

We had cash provided by financing activities of $5,480,882 in the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to cash provided by financing activities of $172,055 in the comparative period in 2022, with this increase primarily due to the receipt of $7,245,000 of gross proceeds from the sale of 4,830,000 shares of common stock in our second IPO, partially offset by advances to related parties of $1,125,000 and the costs of the offering of $634,600 in the three months ended March 31, 2023, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2022.

We anticipate that our cash needs for the next twelve months for working capital and capital expenditures will be approximately $2,000,000. As of March 31, 2023, we had $4,036,530 in cash, and we believe that our current cash and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet anticipated cash needs for the next twelve months for working capital and capital expenditures. We will likely also require additional cash resources due to possible changed business conditions or other future developments. We plan to seek to sell additional equity securities to generate additional cash to continue operations. We may also sell debt securities to generate additional cash. The sale of equity securities, or of debt securities that are convertible into our equity, could result in additional dilution to our shareholders. The incurrence of additional indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could result in operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations and liquidity.

Our ability to obtain additional capital on acceptable terms is subject to a variety of uncertainties, including the following: investors’ perception of, and demand for, securities of cigarette and hemp companies; conditions of the U.S. and other capital markets in which we may seek to raise funds; future results of operations, financial condition and cash flow. Therefore, our management cannot assure that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, or if at all. Any failure by us to raise additional funds on terms favorable to us could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and financial condition.

Table of Contents

On February 11, 2023, the Company sold an additional 4,830,000 shares of common stock in a registered underwritten offering at a price to the public of $1.50 per share. Gross offering proceeds of $7,245,000 were reduced by commission and offering costs of $634,600, with net proceeds of $6,610,400 being received by the Company on February 11, 2023.

Going Concern

In the event we are not successful in reaching our sustained revenue targets, we anticipate that depending on market conditions and our plan of operations, we will likely incur, for the next few months, continued operating losses. We base this expectation, in part, on the fact that we may not be able to generate enough gross profit to cover our operating expenses. Consequently, there remains the possibility that we may not continue to operate as a going concern in the long term. We are subject to many factors which could detrimentally affect us. Many of these risk factors are outside management’s control, including demand for our products, our ability to hire and retain talented and skilled employees and service providers, as well as other factors.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and settle its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

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

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenue, and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in our external disclosures including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.

Table of Contents

Our significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 2 to our financial statements. While these significant accounting policies impact our financial condition and results of operations, we view certain of these policies as critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have the most significant impact on our financial statements and require management to use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Our management believes that given current facts and circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other reasonable judgments or estimate methodologies would cause an effect on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity for the periods presented in this report.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by FASB that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. If not discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company is not required to provide the information under this item.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company does not currently maintain sufficient controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures would include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2023, have been evaluated, and, based upon this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer has concluded that these controls and procedures are not effective in providing reasonable assurance of compliance.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the period covered by this report that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, the Company may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of commercial operations in the normal course of business. As of March 31, 2023, there were no pending or threatened lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations except as set forth below.

On or about October 7, 2022, the Company accepted service in a suit filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York by Long Side Ventures LLC, R & T Sports Marketing Inc., Sierra Trading Corp., Taconic Group LLC, KBW Holdings LLC, Robert Huebsch and Ann E. Huebsch, Joseph Camberato, Joseph Crook, Sachin Jamdar, Michael Matilsky, Gerard Scollan, and Daisy Arnold (collectively “Plaintiffs”) against Hempacco Co., Inc., Mexico Franchise Opportunity Fund, LP, Sandro Piancone, Jorge Olson, Neville Pearson, Stuart Titus, Jerry Halamuda, Retail Automated Concepts, Inc. f/k/a Vidbox Mexico Inc., and Vidbox Mexico S.A. De C.V. (collectively “Defendants”) (Case No. 1:22-cv-08152 (ALC)), alleging that (i) Plaintiffs previously received a judgment (the “Judgment”) in a New York state court action (the “State Action”) against Retail Automated Concepts, Inc. (“RAC”) and Vidbox Mexico S.A. De C.V. (“Vidbox Mexico”), for breach of promissory notes issued by RAC to Defendants in 2018 and guaranteed by Vidbox Mexico, and (ii) prior to the filing of the State Action, Defendants fraudulently transferred and commingled assets, specifically 600 retail kiosks, in order to avoid enforcement of the Judgment, with Plaintiffs seeking monetary damages from Defendants. On or about November 29, 2022, the court granted Defendants’ request to file a motion to dismiss the suit, and on December 30, 2022, Defendants filed the motion to dismiss the suit for failure to state a claim and lack of personal jurisdiction. The court has not yet ruled upon the motion to dismiss. Defendants believe the suit is without merit and intend to defend the matter vigorously.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

As a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company is not required to provide information under this item.

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

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company did not issue any unregistered equity securities except as set forth below.

On or about February 5, 2023, the Company issued 15,000 shares of its common stock to Dr. Fischer and Partner GmbH as partial compensation for a three-month consulting agreement to provide marketing and investor relation services to the Company in Europe.

The above-described shares were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506(b) promulgated thereunder, as there was no general solicitation, the shareholders were accredited and/or financially sophisticated, and the transactions did not involve a public offering.

On February 9, 2023, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Boustead Securities, LLC, and EF Hutton, a division of Benchmark Investments, LLC, as representatives (the “Representatives”) of the underwriters (the “Underwriters”) in connection with the public offering of the Company. The Underwriting Agreement provided for the offer and sale of 4,200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Common Stock”) at a price to the public of $1.50 per share (the “Offering”). In connection therewith, the Company agreed to issue to the Representatives and/or their designees 338,100 warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock, exercisable from February 14, 2023, through February 10, 2028, and initially exercisable at $1.50 per share subject to adjustment as provided therein (the “Representatives’ Warrants”). The Company also granted the Underwriters an option (the “Option”) for a period of 45 days to purchase up to an additional 630,000 shares of Common Stock. The Offering was made pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-269566) (the “Registration Statement”), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 9, 2023. On February 11, 2023, the Underwriters exercised the Option in full, and on February 14, 2023, the Offering was completed. At the closing of the Offering, the Company (i) sold an aggregate of 4,830,000 shares of Common Stock for total gross proceeds of $7,245,000, and (ii) issued the Representatives’ Warrants as directed by the Representatives. After deducting underwriter commissions and Offering expenses, the Company received net proceeds of $6,610,400.
