NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

	●	1090 N. 2^nd Street (formerly Green Tree/Natural Alternatives for Life) – Medical cultivation license only

Discontinued Operations - Operations Consulting and Products (“Operations Segment”)

Through Next Big Crop (“NBC”), we delivered comprehensive consulting services to the cannabis industry that included obtaining licenses, compliance, cultivation, retail operations, logistical support, facility design and construction, and expansion of existing operations.

NBC oversaw our wholesale equipment and supply business, operating under the name “GC Supply,” which provided turnkey sourcing and stocking services to cultivation, retail, and infused products manufacturing facilities. Our products included building materials, equipment, consumables, and compliance packaging. NBC also provided operational support for our internal cultivation. On July 16, 2021, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with an individual to sell substantially all the assets of NBC for a total of $150,000 and 10% of profits generated by the buyer in the states of Michigan, Mississippi, and Massachusetts for a period of twelve months from the closing. On August 2, 2021, the sale of NBC was completed. Pursuant to amendment, the buyer paid the additional $75,000 in March 2022, and the 10% profit share described above was eliminated.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared following the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules, certain footnotes and other financial information that are normally required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") can be condensed or omitted. The condensed consolidated balance sheet for the year ended December 31, 2022, was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. The information included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2022, which were included in the annual report on Form 10-K filed by the Company on April 17, 2023.

In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto of the Company and include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for the fair presentation of the Company's financial position and operating results. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the year ending December 31, 2023, or any other interim or future periods. Since the date of the Annual Report, there have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies.

Table of Contents

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Although these estimates are based on our knowledge of current events and actions we may undertake in the future, actual results may ultimately differ from these estimates and assumptions. Furthermore, when testing assets for impairment in future periods, if management uses different assumptions or if different conditions occur, impairment charges may result.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk consisted primarily of cash and accounts receivable.

Customer and Revenue Concentrations – Cultivation Segment

During the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, 81% of SevenFive’s revenue was with two customers and 78% was with one customer, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, 77% of SevenFive’s revenue was with two customers and 59% was with one customer, respectively. These customers are related party dispensaries and the revenues associated with these customers are eliminated in consolidation.

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, 90% of Green Tree’s revenue was with four customers. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, 83% of Green Tree’s revenue was with three customers. The customers in 2023 are related party dispensaries and the revenues associated with these customers are eliminated in consolidation.

Going Concern

We incurred net losses of $2,036,155 and $3,922,689 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively and $182,948 and $1,044,004 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and had an accumulated deficit of $97,324,771 as of June 30, 2023. We had cash and cash equivalents of $643,968 and $2,583,833 as of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, respectively.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of continuity of operations, realization of assets, and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business. We have incurred recurring losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and have primarily funded our operations with proceeds from the issuance of debt. We expect our operating losses to continue into the foreseeable future as we continue to execute our acquisition and growth strategy. As a result, we have concluded that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise additional capital to fund operations, support our planned investing activities, and repay our debt obligations as they become due. If we are unable to obtain additional funding, we would be forced to delay, reduce, or eliminate some or all of our acquisition efforts, which could adversely affect our growth plans.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, for discussion of the Company's significant accounting policies.

Table of Contents

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

FASB ASU 2020-06 – “Debt-Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity”- In June 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2023, although early adoption is permitted. We adopted this ASU in the first quarter of 2022, and the adoption did not have a material effect on our financial statements.

NOTE 2. BUSINESS ACQUISITION

On December 12, 2022, we completed the Green Tree Acquisition which consisted of the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Ancient Alternatives LLC, Natural Alternatives For Life, LLC, Mountainside Industries, LLC, Hillside Enterprises, LLC, and GT Creations, LLC, each a Colorado limited liability company (collectively, the "Green Tree Entities”). We assumed certain operating obligations at closing, including certain manufacturing agreements between GT Creations and affiliates of the Green Tree Entities. Allyson Feiler, a principal owner of the Green Tree Entities, was also elected to our Board of Directors effective the date of acquisition.

We paid cash in the amount of $500,000 and stock consideration of 17,977,528 shares of our Common Stock. The closing price of our Common Stock on December 12, 2022, the date of license transfer, was $0.165 per share, as such, fair value of the equity consideration is $2,966,292. An additional $3,500,000 in cash will be paid to the sellers in fifteen (15) equal monthly payments commencing on the 9-month anniversary of the closing. Based on a discount rate of 12%, the fair value of these additional monthly payments is approximately $3,017,510. This liability is included in Notes payable- current and Notes payable- non-current in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

The table below reflects the Company’s preliminary estimates of the acquisition date fair values of the assets acquired.

NOTE 3. ASSET ACQUISITION

In February 2023, we completed the acquisition of the assets of Station 2, LLC. The assets consist of a medical and retail cannabis license for a dispensary located in Denver, CO. We also assumed responsibility of the operating lease for the dispensary and recorded the relating ROU asset which is disclosed separately on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The consideration paid by the Company consists of cash at closing equal to $256,582 plus an additional note equal to $384,873. As the dispensary was not in operation and there was no assembled workforce at the time of acquisition, the acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition of a license. As of June 30, 2023, the balance of the license was $565,931, which is recorded within Intangible assets, net in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

NOTE 4. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On July 16, 2021, we entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with an individual to sell substantially all of the assets of NBC for a total of $150,000 and 10% of profits generated by the buyer in the states of Michigan, Mississippi, and Massachusetts for a period of twelve months from the closing. On August 2, 2021, the sale of NBC was completed. Pursuant to amendment, the buyer paid the additional $75,000 in March 2022, and the 10% profit share described above was eliminated.

NOTE 6. LEASES

The Company’s leases consist primarily of real estate leases for retail, cultivation, and manufacturing facilities. All but one of the Company’s leases are classified as operating leases. The lease for the retail dispensary acquired in the Green Man Transaction is classified as a finance lease. The current and non-current portions of the operating lease liabilities and finance lease liabilities are disclosed separately on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The finance lease ROU asset is included in property and equipment, net and the operating lease ROU asset is disclosed separately on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. As the rate implicit in the Company’s leases is not readily determinable, we used an estimated incremental borrowing rate of 20% in determining the present value of lease payments.

The operating lease expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, and June 30, 2022, is as follows:


	For the three months ended June 30,				For the six months ended June 30,

The finance lease expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and June 30, 2022, was approximately $41,823 and nil, respectively. The finance lease expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and June 30, 2022, was approximately $83,647 and nil, respectively.

Related party leases

As of June 30, 2023, three of the Company’s operating leases, one retail dispensary lease, one cultivation facility lease, and one lease that includes both cultivation and retail, are related party leases as the landlords are current, and former, board members, principal shareholders, or employees. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the related party operating leases consisted of one dispensary and one cultivation facility. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the related party operating leases consisted of one dispensary and one cultivation facility. The retail dispensary lease was with a related party through May 2022, when the building was sold to an unaffiliated third-party. As of June 30, 2023, the ROU asset, operating lease liability, current, and operating lease liability, non-current for the related party leases were $925,826, $532,221, and $456,033, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the total lease expense for related party leases was $127,790 and $75,849, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the total lease expense for related party leases was $255,580 and $75,849, respectively.

Trees Transaction Notes

In January 2022, with the completion of the Trees MLK acquisition, we are obligated to pay the Seller cash equal to $384,873 in equal month installments over a period of 24 months. The payments began on June 15, 2022 and the payment is equal to $16,036 per month.

In December 2022, with the completion of the Green Tree Acquisition, we are obligated to pay the Seller cash equal to $3,500,000 in equal month installments over a period of 15 months. The payments begin in September 2023, and the payment is equal to $233,333 per month. The relative fair value of this obligation resulted in a debt discount of $512,367. We recorded amortization of debt discount expense from this obligation of $184,902 and nil for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively, and $93,831 and nil for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively.

In December 2022, with the completion of the Green Man Acquisition, we are obligated to pay the Seller cash equal to $1,500,000 in equal month installments over a period of 18 months. The payments begin in December 2023 and the payment is equal to $83,333 per month. The relative fair value of this obligation resulted in a debt discount of $275,154. We recorded amortization of debt discount expense from this obligation of $75,629 and nil for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively, and $38,379 and nil for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively.

12% Notes

On September 15, 2022, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors (the “12% Investors”), pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell senior secured convertible notes (the “12% Notes”) with an aggregate principal amount of $13,500,000 to such 12% Investors, in exchange for payment by certain 12% Investors of an aggregate amount of $10,587,250 in cash, as well as cancellation of outstanding indebtedness in the aggregate amount of $2,912,750 represented by the 10% Notes discussed below.

Table of Contents

In connection with the 12% Notes, the 12% Investors received warrants (the “12% Warrants”) to purchase shares of our common stock equal to 20% coverage of the aggregate principal amount with an exercise price of $0.70 per share, which equals an aggregate of warrants to purchase 3,857,150 shares of Common Stock. The lead 12% Investor received an additional 10% warrant coverage on the aggregate principal amount of 12% Notes for total additional warrants to purchase 1,928,571 shares of Common Stock. The lead 12% Investor also will receive a five percent fee on the aggregate principal amount of the 12% Notes. This total fee in the amount of $675,000 was recorded as a debt discount and will be amortized over the life of the loan. The 12% Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 12% and will mature on September 16, 2026. The 12% Investors have the option to convert up to 50% of the outstanding unpaid principal and accrued interest of the 12% Notes into Common Stock at a fixed conversion price equal to $1.00 per share.

The relative fair value of the new funding on the 12% Warrants was recorded as a debt discount and additional paid-in capital of $569,223. The relative fair value of the cancellation of the outstanding indebtedness was recorded as an extinguishment of debt and additional paid-in capital of $103,577. We recorded amortization of debt discount expense from the 12% Notes of $154,250 and nil for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $77,551 and nil for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively. We determined there was no beneficial conversion feature on the 12% Notes issued. The 12% Notes are treated as conventional debt.

For purposes of determining the debt discount, the underlying assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model to determine the fair value of the 12% Warrants as of September 15, 2022, were:


Current stock price	$	0.20
Exercise price	$	0.70
Risk-free interest rate		3.66%
Expected dividend yield		—
Expected term (in years)		5.0
Expected volatility		107%

In connection with the acquisition of Station 2, LLC in February 2023, we agreed to issue and sell an additional 12% Note with an aggregate principal amount of $384,873. The relative fair value of this 12% Note resulted in a debt discount of $50,918. We recorded amortization of debt discount expense from this Note of $16,552 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and $9,840 for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This 12% Note is treated as conventional debt.

10% Notes

In December 2020, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement’) with certain accredited investors (the “10% Investors”), pursuant to which we issued and sold senior convertible promissory notes (the “10% Notes”) with an aggregate principal amount of $2,940,000 in exchange for payment to us by certain 10% Investors of an aggregate amount of $1,940,000 in cash, as well as cancellation of outstanding indebtedness of previously issued 15% notes in the aggregate amount of $1,000,000. In connection with the issuance of the 10% Notes, the holders of the 10% Notes received warrants (the “10% Warrants”) to purchase shares of our common stock equal to 20% coverage of the aggregate principal amount at $0.56 per share. In the aggregate, this equals 1,050,011 shares of our common stock. The 10% Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 10% and will mature on December 23, 2023. The 10% Investors have the option at any time to convert up to 50% of the outstanding unpaid principal and accrued interest of the 10% Notes into Common Stock at a variable price of 80% of the market price but no less than $0.65 per share and no more than $1.00 per share. The 10% Warrants are exercisable at an exercise price of $0.56 per warrant.

The relative fair value of the new funding on the 10% Warrants was recorded as a debt discount and additional paid-in capital of $254,400. The relative fair value of the cancellation of the outstanding indebtedness was recorded as an extinguishment of debt and additional paid-in capital of $131,000. We recorded amortization of debt discount expense from the 10% Notes of nil and $43,023 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, and nil and $2,630 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively. We determined there was no beneficial conversion feature on the 10% Notes issued in December 2020. The 10% Notes are treated as conventional debt.

On February 8, 2021, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an accredited 10% Investor, pursuant to which we issued and sold 10% Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $1,660,000 to such 10% Investor. The 10% Notes are part of an over-allotment option exercised by us in connection with the convertible note offering consummated on December 23, 2020, as discussed above. In connection with the issuance of the 10% Notes, the holder received warrants to purchase shares of our common stock equal to 20% coverage of the aggregate principal amount at $0.56 per share. In the aggregate, this equals 592,858 shares of our common stock with a par value $0.001 per share. The 10% Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 10% and will mature on February 8, 2024. The 10% Investor has the option to convert up to 50% of the outstanding unpaid principal and accrued interest of the 10% Notes into Common Stock at a variable price of 80% of the market price but no less than $0.65 per share and no more than $1.00 per share. The 10% Warrants are exercisable at an exercise price of $0.56 per warrant.

The relative fair value of the new funding on the 10% Warrants was recorded as a debt discount and additional paid-in capital of $429,300. We determined that this 10% Note had a beneficial conversion feature and is calculated at its intrinsic value (that is, the difference between the effective conversion price of $0.66 at the date of the note issuance and the fair value of the common stock into which the debt is convertible at the commitment date, per share being $0.90, multiplied by the number of shares into which the debt is convertible). The valuation of the beneficial conversion feature recorded cannot be greater than the face value of the note issued. We recorded $417,539 as additional paid in capital and a debt discount and included in our consolidated statement of operations. We recorded amortization of debt discount expense from the February 2021 10% Notes of nil and $139,980 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and nil and $70,377 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively.

On April 20, 2021, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with accredited 10% Investors, pursuant to which we issued and sold 10% Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $2,300,000 to such 10% Investors. The 10% Notes are part of an over-allotment approved by the existing noteholders in connection with the original convertible note offering of $4,600,000 consummated on December 23, 2020, and February 8, 2021. In connection with the issuance of the 10% Notes, each holder received warrants to purchase shares of our common stock equal to 20% coverage of the aggregate principal amount at $0.56 per share, except that the warrants coverage to one Investor acting as lead investor in the raise received approximately 35.5% of the aggregate principal amount invested. The 10% Notes bear interest at an annual rate of 10% and will mature on April 20, 2024. The 10% Investors have the option to convert up to 50% of the outstanding unpaid principal and accrued interest of the 10% Notes into Common Stock at a variable price of 80% of the market price but no less than $0.65 per share and no more than $1.00 per share. The 10% Warrants are exercisable at an exercise price of $0.56 per warrant.

The relative fair value of the new funding on the 10% Warrants was recorded as a debt discount and additional paid-in capital of $810,000. We determined that these 10% Notes had a beneficial conversion feature and is calculated at its intrinsic value (that is, the difference between the effective conversion price of $0.49 at the date of the note issuance and the fair value of the common stock into which the debt is convertible at the commitment date, per share being $0.83, multiplied by the number of shares into which the debt is convertible). The valuation of the beneficial conversion feature recorded cannot be greater than the face value of the note issued. We recorded $692,500 as additional paid in capital and a debt discount and included in our consolidated statement of operations. We recorded amortization of debt discount expense from the April 2021 10% Notes of nil and $247,939 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and nil and $124,654 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

NOTE 9. WARRANT DERIVATIVE LIABILITY

On May 31, 2019, we received gross proceeds of $3 million by issuing three million shares of our common stock and three million warrants (“2019 Warrants”) to purchase shares of our common stock (“2019 Units”) in a registered direct offering for $1.00 per 2019 Unit (collectively defined as the “2019 Capital Raise”). The 2019 Warrants, issued with the 2019 Capital Raise, are accounted for as a derivative liability. The 2019 Warrant agreements contain a cash settlement provision whereby the holders could settle the warrants for cash based on the Black-Scholes value, upon certain fundamental transactions, as defined in the 2019 Warrant agreement, which are considered outside of the control of management, such as a change of control. The original exercise price of the 2019 Warrants was $1.30 per share. The 2019 Warrants contain certain anti-dilution adjustment provisions with respect to subsequent issuances of securities by the Company at a price below the exercise price of such warrants. As a result of such subsequent issuances of securities by the Company during the fourth quarter 2019, the exercise price of the 2019 Warrants decreased to $0.45 per share and the number of shares subject to the 2019 Warrants increased to 8,666,666 shares of common stock as of December 31, 2019. In May 2020, we issued securities at a price lower than the $0.45 per share above. As a result, the exercise price of the 2019 Warrants decreased to $0.3983 per share and the number of shares subject to the 2019 Warrants increased to 9,591,614 shares of common stock.

During the first quarter of 2021 the warrant holders exercised 1,323,000 warrants into 747,208 shares of our common stock through cashless exercise. We recorded an adjustment to the derivative liability of $1,523,117 as a result.

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, we recognized a $5,219 gain and $1,406 loss on the change in fair value of the derivative liability, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, we recognized a $3,912 gain and $59,258 gain on the change in fair value of the derivative liability, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, there were 322,807 of the 2019 Warrants outstanding.

NOTE 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, the Company is a party to various litigation matters incidental to the conduct of its business. The Company is not presently a party to any legal proceedings that would have a material adverse effect on its business, operating results, financial condition, or cash flows, except as set forth below.

In July 2021, we were served with a Complaint in the District Court, County of Denver, Colorado, by plaintiff 2353 SB, LLC (“Plaintiff”). We entered into a lease with Plaintiff for the premises at 2353 South Broadway, Denver, CO with a term of three (3) years to commence on November 1, 2020. Monthly lease payments were to be $12,867. In 2020, we made initial payments (first month’s rent and security deposit) of $39,633; but subsequently did not take possession of the premises and have made no further payments in respect thereof, as a direct result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The lease contains a ‘force majeure’ clause which includes a provision that neither party is liable for failure to perform its obligations under the lease which have become practicably impossible because of circumstances beyond the reasonable control of the applicable party, including ‘pandemics or outbreak of communicable disease.’ We took the position that our failure to take possession and make any further payments under the lease is directly related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

In June 2023, via mediation conducted through the Judicial Arbiter Group and a duly executed settlement agreement, we settled this litigation. As part of the settlement, Plaintiff agreed to waive and release the Company et. al from all claims relating to the litigation; and in exchange, the Company has agreed to pay to Plaintiff an aggregate amount of $150,000, payable as follows: (i) one initial installment payment of $30,000 payable on August 1, 2023; and (ii) twenty (20) subsequent monthly payments of $6,000 each. In the event of default under the settlement agreement, the non-defaulting party must provide written notice and the defaulting party has a 7-day right of cure. The settlement agreement also provides for a ‘paper judgment’ in the event of an uncured default by the Company; in which event the full amount of $345,000 becomes due and payable. The parties will file a stipulated motion to administratively close the case and request that the court retain jurisdiction until completion of the settlement payments.

NOTE 11. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

2021 Preferred stock offering

On September 10, 2021, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with various accredited investors (the “2021 Investors), pursuant to which we issued and sold Units consisting of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred”) and warrants (the “Preferred Warrants”) to purchase shares of our common stock with a par value of $0.001 per share. The total number of Units sold was 1,180. Each Unit consists of one share of Series A Preferred and 354,000 Preferred Warrants. The purchase price of each Unit was $1,000, for an aggregate amount sold of $1,180,000. Each share of Series A Preferred is convertible into 1,000 shares of common stock upon the consummation of a capital raise of not less than $5,000,000. The Certificate of Designation of the Series A Preferred Stock (“Certificate of Designation”) was filed with the Secretary of the State of Colorado on September 14, 2021. The Certificate of Designations established the new preferred series entitled “Series A Convertible Preferred Stock” with no par value pers share, and sets forth the rights, restrictions, preferences and privileges of the Series A Preferred, summarized as follows:

●

Authorized Number of Shares – 5,000

●

Voting Rights – None

●

Dividends – 6% per annum, ‘paid in kind’ in shares of Series A Preferred

●

Conversion – Each share of Series A Preferred is mandatorily convertible into 1,000 shares of common stock upon a minimum capital raise of $5,000,000; sale, merger or business combination of the Company; or the Company listing on an exchange

●

Redemption – No rights of redemption by 2021 Investors, nor mandatory redemption

The Preferred Warrants have a five-year term and an exercise price per Preferred Warrant share of $1.05. The warrants contain an anti-dilution provision pursuant to which upon a future capital raise at less than $1.00 per share, each Preferred Investor will be granted additional Preferred Warrants on a ‘full-ratchet’ basis.

The proceeds received in the sale of the Series A Preferred totaled $1,180,000, for the issuance of 1,180 Series A Preferred, plus 354,000 warrants. The warrants were valued using a Black Scholes model, at $117,131 and per the relative fair value allocation, $1,073,446 was allocated to the Series A proceeds.

As of June 30, 2023 we have recorded accrued dividends of $106,200.

Stock-based compensation

We use the fair value method to account for stock-based compensation on the grant date. We recorded $18,054 and $28,886 in compensation expense for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively and $45,450 and $105,001 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. This includes expense related to options issued in prior years for which the requisite service period for those options includes the current period as well as options issued in the current period. Forfeited options result in a reversal in the period forfeited. The fair value of these instruments was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing method.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we granted options to purchase 250,000 common shares to directors. The options expire five years from the date of grant and vest over a period of one year. Fair value of the awards at the date of grants totaled $56,348.

As of June 30, 2023, there was no unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested employee awards.

On April 1, 2022 we entered into a Restricted Stock Unit Agreement with four participants. The Restricted Stock Unit’s (“RSU”) were granted pursuant to our 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan. Four separate executives were each granted 300,000 RSU’s, for a total grant of 1,200,000 RSU’s. The 300,000 RSU’s are divided into three equal tranches of 100,000 RSU’s. Each tranche of RSU will vest immediately if and upon the market price reaching a certain minimum market price of our common stock as reported on the OTCQB market. Each tranche will vest as the market price reaches $1.00, $2.00 and $3.00. Upon the RSU’s vesting, the participant will be promptly issued shares of our common stock. If there is a change in control, all unvested RSU’s granted under this agreement will become fully vested and the vested RSU’s will be paid out or settled. The fair value of these instruments is $535,976 and was calculated using the Monte Carlo model. The fair value of the RSU’s is recognized over the requisite service period. As these RSU’s do not have a service period, we used the requisite service period derived from the valuation of 10 years. We recorded $26,799 and $13,500 in compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $12,905 and $13,500 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, none of the RSU’s have vested.

Cost of sales increased three and six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to June 30, 2022 due to the additional sales driven from the Green Tree and Green Man acquisitions.

Selling, general and administrative expense increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to June 30, 2022, due to the increased expenses resulting from the acquisition of three dispensaries in the fourth quarter of

2022 and one additional dispensary license in the first quarter of 2023. This resulted in an increase in employees and an increase in rent expense.

Professional fees consist primarily of accounting and legal expenses. Professional fees increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 as compared to June 30, 2022 due to the acquisition activity in the first quarter of 2023, as well as the accrued legal expenses for the settlement reached in the second quarter of 2023.

Stock-based compensation included the following:

	$	45,450	$	118,501	$	(73,051)	(62)	%

Employee awards are issued under our 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which was approved by shareholders on November 23, 2020, and our 2014 Equity Incentive Plan, which was approved by shareholders on June 26, 2015. Expense varies primarily due to the number of stock options granted and the share price on the date of grant. The decrease in expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to 2022, is due to not issuing options in the second quarter of 2023.

Amortization of debt discount increased during the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to June 30, 2022 due to the issuance of 12% Notes related to the asset acquisition that occurred during Q1 2023. Amortization of debt discount decreased during the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to June 30, 2022, due to the rollover and repayment of the 10% Notes. Interest expense increased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to June 30, 2022, due to the addition of the 12% Notes with an interest rate of 12% in Q3 2022. The gain on warrant derivative liability reflects the change in the fair value of the 2019 Warrants.

With the acquisition of Green Tree on December 12, 2022, and the acquisition of Green Man on December 19, 2022, as well as the acquisition of the dispensary license for 468 Federal Street, retail revenue increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to June 30, 2022. Costs and expenses also increased as a result of the acquisitions.

Segment operating loss	$	(557,000)	$	(254,665)	$	(302,335)	119	%

The increase in revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to June 30, 2022 is attributed to the increase in sales made to our dispensaries which are eliminated in consolidation. The increase in cost and expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to June 30, 2022 is attributed to the acquisitions of Green Tree and Green Man that occurred during December of 2022, as well as the increase in sales made to our dispensaries. The costs and expense incurred between our dispensaries and cultivation locations are eliminated in consolidation.

Liquidity

Sources of liquidity

Our sources of liquidity historically have included the cash exercise of common stock options and warrants, debt, and the issuance of common stock or other equity-based instruments. We anticipate our significant uses of resources will include funding operations.

In September 2022, we received $10,587,250 in cash in a private placement with certain accredited investors pursuant to the 12% Notes to be used for acquisition of dispensaries and operating capital.

Table of Contents

Sources and uses of cash

We had cash of $643,968 and $2,583,833 as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities were as follows:


	Six months ended June 30,
	2023		2022
Net cash used in operating activities	$	(883,305)	$	(245,489)
Net cash used in investing activities	$	(267,314)	$	(182,792)
Net cash used in financing activities	$	(789,246)	$	(552,873)

Net cash used in operating activities increased in 2023 due to the increased net loss driven from the expenses described above.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2023 increased from June 30, 2022, as a result of the purchase price of the additional license acquired in February 2023 exceeding the acquisition activity in the six month prior period.

Net cash used in financing activities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 increased from June 30, 2022 due to an increase in payments on notes payable and finance leases.

Capital Resources

We had no material commitments for capital expenditures as of June 30, 2023. Part of our growth strategy, however, is to acquire operating businesses. We expect to fund such activity through cash on hand, the issuance of debt, common stock, warrants for our common stock or a combination thereof.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders calculated in accordance with GAAP, adjusted for the impact of stock-based compensation expense, acquisition or disposal-related transaction costs , non-recurring professional fees in relation to litigation and other non-recurring expenses, depreciation and amortization, amortization of debt discounts and equity issuance costs, loss on extinguishment of debt, interest expense, income taxes and certain other non-cash items. Below we have provided a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA per share to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, which is net loss per share.

We believe that the disclosure of Adjusted EBITDA provides investors with a better comparison of our period-to-period operating results. We exclude the effects of certain items when we evaluate key measures of our performance internally and in assessing the impact of known trends and uncertainties on our business. We also believe that excluding the effects of these items provides a more comparable view of the underlying dynamics of our operations. We believe such information provides additional meaningful methods of evaluating certain aspects of our operating performance from period to period on a basis that may not be otherwise apparent on a GAAP basis. This supplemental financial information should be considered in addition to, not in lieu of, our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

The following table reconciles Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, which is net loss.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. We continually evaluate the accounting policies and estimates used to prepare the condensed financial statements. The estimates are based on historical experience and assumptions believed to be reasonable under current facts and circumstances. Actual amounts and results could differ from these estimates made by management. Certain accounting policies that require significant management estimates and are deemed critical to our results of operations or financial position are discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, and Note 1 to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2023, the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2023.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer and effected by the Board, management, and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that:

●

Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;

●

Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures of are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and

●

Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of inherent limitations, our internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the second quarter of 2023, which were identified in connection with management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, which have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
