Trend Discovery Capital Management manages several entities including Trend Discovery LP and Trend Discovery SPV I. Trend Discovery LP is a hybrid hedge fund. Trend Discovery LP primarily invests in early-stage startups.

Ecoark, Inc.(“Ecoark”) was founded in 2011 and is located in Bentonville, Arkansas, the home office for Ecoark and Ecoark Holdings. Ecoark merged into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Magnolia Solar Corporation (“MSC”) on March 24, 2016, with Ecoark as the surviving entity. At the merger, MSC changed its name to Ecoark Holdings, Inc. Ecoark is the parent company of ~~Eco360,~~Zest Labs, Inc. and Pioneer Products, ~~and Zest Labs (formerly known as Intelleflex Corporation).

Eco3d provides 3d mapping, modeling, and consulting services for clients in retail, construction, healthcare, and other industries throughout the United States. As described further in Note 2, in March 2017 the Ecoark Holdings Board of Directors (“Ecoark Holdings Board” or “Board”) approved a plan to sell Eco3d, and the sale was completed in April 2017.

An agreement to sell the assets was executed with an expected closing date of August 31, 2018, however, the buyer purportedly failed to obtain financing under terms acceptable to them and did not close timely, so the Company terminated the agreement. A letter of intent has been executed to sell Sable’s equipment and inventory.

The condensed consolidated financial statements of Ecoark Holdings and its subsidiaries and the accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The condensed consolidated financial statements, and the accompanying notes, are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and do not contain certain information included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, ~~2018.~~2019.

The accumulated deficit together with losses of ~~$11,883~~$1,646 for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~December 31, 2018,~~June 30, 2019, and net cash used in operating activities in the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~December 31, 2018~~June 30, 2019 of ~~$7,282~~$973, have resulted in the uncertainty of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

On April 14, 2017, the Company sold the assets, liabilities and membership interests in Eco3d to a group led by executives of Eco3d after the Company’s Board concluded that Eco3d did not fit the future strategic direction of the Company. The Company received $2100 in cash and 560 shares of the Company’s common stock (including 525 shares that had been exchanged for the noncontrolling interest in September 2016) that was held by executives of Eco3d, which were canceled upon receipt. In accordance with ASC 205-20 and having met the criteria for “held for sale”, the Company had reflected amounts relating to Eco3d as a disposal group classified as held for sale at March 31, 2017 and has included amounts relating to Eco3d as part of discontinued operations. Eco3d had $188 in revenues and a $57 loss in the first two weeks of April 2017 that are included in the table below. There was no significant continuing involvement with Eco3d.

In connection with the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, the Company identified inadvertent errors in the accounting for certain embedded derivative liabilities associated with warrants issued as a part of capital raises in 2017 and 2018. In connection with those capital raises, proceeds (net of fees) were accounted for as equity. Upon further evaluation, the Company determined that a portion of the capital raised should have been accounted for as liabilities with fair value changes recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Accordingly, the Company restated its previously issued consolidated financial statements and the related disclosures for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018 and interim periods in fiscal years 2018 and 2019 as well as an adjustment to the opening balance sheet for the first interim period of fiscal 2018 (the “Restated Periods”). The adjustment to the opening balance sheet as of April 1, 2017 consisted of establishing a current derivative liability of $3,351, offset by a reduction in additional paid-in-capital of $4,180 and a reduction of accumulated deficit of $829.

The categories of misstatements and their impact on previously reported consolidated financial statements are described below:

Derivative Liability:The recognition, measurement and presentation and disclosure related to the warrants issued in conjunction with reserved private placements of the Company’s common stock.

Stockholders’ Deficit:The measurement and presentation and disclosure related to the derivative liability associated with the warrants issued in conjunction with the reserved private placements originally classified as additional paid in capital.

Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liabilities:The recognition, measurement and presentation and disclosure related to changes in the fair value of the derivative liability

In addition to the restatement of the financial statements, certain information within the notes to the financial statements referred to below that were included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 were impacted. Therefore, the interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with that Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The financial statement misstatements reflected in previously issued consolidated financial statements did not impact cash flows from operations, investing, or financing activities in the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows for any period previously presented, however they did impact individual line items.

On December 28, 2018, the Company entered into a $10,000 credit facility that includes a loan and security agreement (the “Agreement”) where the lender agreed to make one or more loans to the Company, and the Company may make a request for a loan or loans from the lender, subject to the terms and conditions. The Company is required to pay interest biannually on the outstanding principal amount of each loan calculated at an annual rate of 12%. The loans are evidenced by a demand note executed by the Company. The Company is able to request draws from the lender up to $1,000 with a cap of $10,000, including the $1,000 advanced on December 28, 2018 and an additional $150 advanced on February 1, 2019. If principal is prepaid, the loans may not be re-borrowed and the cap of $10,000 shall be reduced. The Company may make a request for a loan or loans from the lender, at any one time and from time to time, from the date of the Agreement until the earlier of (i) demand by the lender or (ii) December 27, 2020 or the earlier termination of the Agreement pursuant to the terms thereof. Loans made pursuant to the Agreement are secured by a security interest in the Company’s collateral held with the lender and guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiary, Zest Labs.

The Company is to pay to the lender a commitment fee on the principal amount of each loan requested thereunder in the amount of 3.5% of the amount thereof. The Company also paid an arrangement fee of $300 to the lender which was paid upon execution of the Agreement. The aforementioned fees were netted from proceeds from the $1,000 initial advance on December 28, 2018. Zest Labs is a plaintiff in a litigation styled as~~Zest Labs, Inc. vs WalMart, Inc., Case Number 4:18-cv-00500~~ filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas (the “Zest Litigation”). The Company agrees that within five days of receipt by Zest Labs or the Company of any settlement proceeds from the Zest Litigation, the Company will pay or cause to be paid over to lender an additional fee in an amount equal to (i) 0.50 multiplied by (ii) the highest aggregate principal balance of the loans over the life of the loans through the date of the payment from settlement proceeds; provided, however, that such additional fee shall not exceed the amount of the settlement proceeds.

Subject to customary carve-outs, the Agreement contains customary negative covenants and restrictions for agreements of this type on actions by the Company including, without limitation, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, loans, consolidation, mergers, dissolution, asset dispositions outside the ordinary course of business, change in business and restriction on use of proceeds. In addition, the Agreement requires compliance by the Company of covenants including, but not limited to, furnishing the lender with certain financial reports and protecting and maintaining its intellectual property rights. The Agreement contains customary events of default, including, without limitation, non-payment of principal or interest, violation of covenants, inaccuracy of representations in any material respect and cross defaults with certain other indebtedness and agreements.

As described in Note 3, the Company issued common stock and warrants in several private placements in March 2017, May 2017, March 2018 and August 2018. The March and May 2017 and March and August 2018 warrants (collectively the “Derivative Warrant Instruments”) are classified as liabilities. The Derivative Warrant Instruments have been accounted for utilizing ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging”. The Company has incurred a liability for the estimated fair value of Derivative Warrant Instruments. The estimated fair value of the Derivative Warrant Instruments has been calculated using the Black-Scholes fair value option-pricing model with key input variables provided by management, as of the date of issuance, with changes in fair value recorded as gains or losses on revaluation in other income (expense).

The Company identified embedded features in the March and May 2017 warrants which caused the warrants to be classified as a liability. These embedded features included the implicit right for the holders to request that the Company settle the warrants in registered shares. Since maintaining an effective registration of shares is potentially outside the control of the Company, these warrants were classified as liabilities as opposed to equity. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company treat the whole instrument as liability and record the fair value of the instrument as derivatives as of the inception date of the instrument and to adjust the fair value of the instrument as of each subsequent balance sheet date.

The Company identified embedded features in the March and August 2018 warrants which caused the warrants to be classified as a liability. These embedded features included the right for the holders to request that the Company cash settle the warrant instruments from the holder by paying to the holder an amount of cash equal to the Black-Scholes value of the remaining unexercised portion of the Derivative Warrant Instruments on the date of the consummation of a fundamental transaction. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company treat the whole instrument as liability and record the fair value of the instrument as derivatives as of the inception date of the instrument and to adjust the fair value of the instrument as of each subsequent balance sheet date.

The Company determined our derivative liabilities to be a Level 3 fair value measurement and used the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair value as of June 30, 2019. The Black-Scholes model requires six basic data inputs: the exercise or strike price, time to expiration, the risk-free interest rate, the current stock price, the estimated volatility of the stock price in the future, and the dividend rate. Changes to these inputs could produce a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. The fair value of each warrant is estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The following assumptions were used in June 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019 and at inception:

The Company’s derivative liabilities associated with the warrants are as follows:

During the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 the Company recognized changes in the fair value of the derivative liabilities of $945 and $321, respectively. See additional details on warrant transactions subsequent to June 30, 2019 in Note 19 below.

The Company is required to pay interest biannually on the outstanding principal amount of each loan calculated at an annual rate of 12%. The loans are evidenced by a demand note executed by the Company. The Company is able to request draws from the lender up to $1,000 with a cap of $10,000, including the $1,000 advanced on December 28, 2018 and an additional $350 advanced through March 31, 2019, and an additional $460 advanced during the three months ended June 30, 2019. If principal is prepaid, the loans may not be re-borrowed and the cap of $10,000 shall be reduced. The Company may make a request for a loan or loans from the lender, at any one time and from time to time, from the date of the Agreement until the earlier of (i) demand by the lender or (ii) December 27, 2020 or the earlier termination of the Agreement pursuant to the terms thereof.

The Company also paid an arrangement fee of $300 to the lender which was paid upon execution of the Agreement. The aforementioned fees were and are netted from proceeds advanced and are recorded as interest expense. Zest Labs is a plaintiff in a litigation styled asZest Labs, Inc. vs Walmart, Inc., Case Number 4:18-cv-00500 filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas (the “Zest Litigation”).

The Company had net losses and accumulated deficits in the periods presented and therefore the triggering of the down round feature did not require the recording of a dividend since there were no accumulated earnings available and thus did not result in an adjustment of losses per share.

The 2013 Incentive Stock Plan was registered on February 7, 2013. Under that plan, the Company may grant incentive stock in the form of stock options, stock awards and stock purchase offers of up to 5,500 shares of common stock to Company employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisors. The type of grant, vesting provisions, exercise price and expiration dates are to be established by the Board at the date of grant.

The 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan was registered on June 14, 2017. Under that plan, the Company may grant nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units, and other awards. Awards of up to 4,000 shares of common stock to Company employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisors are available under the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan. The type of grant, vesting provisions, exercise price and expiration dates are to be established by the Board at the date of grant.

Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon sufficient future taxable income during the period that deductible temporary differences and carry-forwards are expected to be available to reduce taxable income. As the achievement of required taxable income is uncertain, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against deferred tax assets.

After consideration of all the evidence, both positive and negative, management has recorded a full valuation allowance at ~~December 31, 2018~~June 30, 2019 and March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, due to the uncertainty of realizing the deferred income tax assets.

Concentration of Credit Risk.The Company’s customer base for its Zest Lab products is concentrated with a small number of customers. The Company does not generally require collateral or other security to support accounts receivable. To reduce credit risk, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations on its customers’ financial condition. The Company establishes allowances for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of customers, historical trends and other information. J. Terrence Thompson accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s accounts receivable as ~~the Tax Cuts~~of June 30, 2019 and ~~Jobs Act (“TCJA”) was enacted into U.S. law.

Effective January 1, 2018, the federal tax rate for corporations was reduced from 35% to 21% for U.S. taxable income.

The Company measures and discloses the estimated fair value of financial assets and liabilities using the fair value hierarchy prescribed by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The fair value hierarchy has three levels, which are based on reliable available inputs of observable data. The hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. The three-level hierarchy is defined as follows:

Level 2 – quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and

Level 3 – fair value measurements derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

Financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts receivable and other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, notes payable, and amounts due to related parties. The fair value of cash is determined based on Level 1 inputs. There were no transfers into or out of “Level 3” during the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective relatively short maturity dates or durations.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates. The Company records the fair value of the warrant derivative liabilities disclosed in Note 8 in accordance with ASC 815,Derivatives and Hedging. The fair values of the derivatives were calculated using the Black-Scholes Model. The fair value of the derivative liabilities is revalued on each balance sheet date with corresponding gains and losses recorded in other income (expense) in the consolidated statement of operations. Other income recorded based upon the change in fair value of the derivative liabilities was $945 and $321 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

The following table presents assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized at fair value on a recurring basis:

Subsequent to June 30, 2019, the Company has drawn an additional $525 on the credit facility described in Note 9. A board member has advanced to the Company an additional $60 under the note described in Note 10.

On July 12, 2019, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement with investors (the “Investors”) that are the holders of warrants issued in the Company’s purchase agreements entered into on (i) March 14, 2018 (the “March Purchase Agreement” and such warrants, the “March Warrants”) and (ii) August 9, 2018 (the “August Purchase Agreement” and such warrants, the “August Warrants”, and the March Warrants and the August Warrants, collectively, the “Existing Securities”). The Investors are entitled to, with respect to the March Warrants and the August Warrants, due to the Agreement and Plan of Merger with Trend Holdings the Company entered into on May 31, 2019, an exchange for the March Warrants and August Warrants. As a result of a cashless exercise, the Company issued 4,277 shares of the Company’s common stock to the Investors. Upon the issuance of the 4,277 shares, warrants for 5,677 shares issued in the March Purchase Agreement and August Purchase Agreement were extinguished.

On August 21, 2019 (the “Effective Date”), the Company and two accredited investors (each an “Investor” and, collectively, the “Investors”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company sold and issued to the Investors an aggregate of 2 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), at a price of $1,000 per share (the “Private Placement”).

Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company issued to each Investor a warrant (a “Warrant”) to purchase a number of shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), equal to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock purchased by the Investor. Each Warrant has an exercise price equal to $0.51, subject to full ratchet price only anti-dilution provisions in accordance with the terms of the Warrants (the “Exercise Price”), and is exercisable for five years after the Effective Date. In addition, if the market price of the Common Stock on the 11 month anniversary of the closing date of the offering is less than $0.51, holder of the warrants shall be entitled to receive additional shares of common stock based on the number of shares of common stock that would have been issuable upon conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock had the initial conversion price been equal to the market price at such time (but not less than $0.25) less the number of shares of common stock issued or issuable upon exercise of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock based on the $0.51 conversion price.

The Company also agreed to amend the current exercise price of the warrants that the investors received in connection with the Securities Purchase Agreements dated March 14, 2017 (the “March Warrants”) and May 22, 2017 (the “May Warrants” and, together with the March Warrants, the “Existing Securities”). The Existing Securities have a current exercise price of $0.59, which was amended from $2.50 on July 12, 2019. The current exercise price for the Existing Securities shall be amended to reduce the exercise price to $0.51, subject to adjustment pursuant to the provisions of the Existing Securities.

Each share of the Series B Preferred Stock has a par value of $0.001 per share and a stated value equal to $1,000 (the “Stated Value”) and is convertible at any time at the option of the holder into the number of shares of Common Stock determined by dividing the stated value by the conversion price of $0.51, subject to certain limitations and adjustments (the “Conversion Price”).

The Company received gross proceeds from the Private Placement of $2,000, before deducting transaction costs, fees and expenses payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the Private Placement to support the Company’s general working capital requirements.

As required by the Securities Purchase Agreement, each director and officer of the Company has previously entered into a lock-up agreement with the Company whereby each director and officer has agreed that during the period commencing from the Effective Date until 120 days after the Effective Date, such director or officer will not offer, sell, contract to sell, hypothecate, pledge or otherwise dispose of or enter into any transaction to dispose of, or establish or increase a put position or liquidate or decrease a call position, with respect to any share of Common Stock or securities convertible, exchangeable or exercisable into, shares of Common Stock. On August 21, 2019, the Company issued 300 shares of common stock to advisors that assisted with the securities purchase agreement and exchange agreement.

Dollar amounts and number of shares below are expressed in thousands, except per share amounts.

Impact of Restatement Adjustments on Other Income and Net Loss of Previously Reported Periods

As more fully described in Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report, the Company identified inadvertent errors in the accounting for certain embedded derivative liabilities associated with warrants issued as a part of capital raises in 2017 and 2018. In connection with those capital raises, proceeds (net of fees) were accounted for as equity. Upon further evaluation, the Company determined that a portion of the capital raised should have been accounted for as liabilities with fair value changes recorded in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Accordingly, the Company has restated its previously issued consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018 and interim periods in fiscal years 2018 and 2019 as well as an adjustment to the opening balance sheet for the first interim period of fiscal 2018 (the “Restated Periods”).

The only impact on the consolidated statements of operations is an adjustment to other income which impacts the net loss for the respective Restated Periods. There is no impact to the income tax provision or net deferred tax asset because both the current tax benefit and deferred tax assets were offset by a full valuation allowance. Impacts to the consolidated balance sheets consisting of establishing derivative liabilities and adjustments to stockholders’ equity are addressed in the Liquidity and Capital Resources section below.

The adjustment to the opening balance sheet as of April 1, 2017 consisted of establishing a current derivative liability of $3,351, offset by a reduction in additional paid-in-capital of $4,180 and a reduction of accumulated deficit of $829.

For the three months ended June 30, 2018, other income increased by $321 with a corresponding reduction in net loss from $3,548 to $3,227.

~~Ecoark Holdings is a Nevada corporation incorporated on November 19, 2007 that has developed over the years through key acquisitions and organic growth.~~

Ecoark Holdings is an innovative AgTech company focused on solutions that reduce food waste and improve delivered freshness and product margins for fresh and perishable foods for a wide range of organizations including growers, processors, distributors and retailers.

Zest Labs offers freshness management solutions for fresh food ~~retailers and restaurants,~~ growers, suppliers, processors, distributors, grocers and ~~suppliers.~~restaurants. Its Zest Fresh solution is a cloud-based post-harvest shelf-life and freshness management solution that improves delivered freshness of ~~products~~produce and protein and reduces post-harvest losses at the retailer due to temperature handling and processing by 50% or more by intelligently matching customer freshness requirements with actual product freshness. It focuses on four primary value propositions – operational efficiency, consistent food freshness, reduced waste, and improved food safety. Zest Fresh empowers workers with real-time analytic tools and alerts that improve efficiency while driving quality consistency through best practice adherence at a pallet level. Zest Labs also offers its Zest Delivery solution that provides real-time monitoring and control for prepared food delivery containers, helping delivery and dispatch personnel ensure the quality and safety of delivered food.

On June 6, 2019, Zest Labsannounced a strategic collaboration between AgroFresh and Zest Labs ~~was previously known as Intelleflex Corporation. Effective on October 28, 2016, Intelleflex Corporation changed~~to strengthen their end-to-end solutions. AgroFresh will incorporate Zest Labs’ Zest Fresh™ solution into its ~~name~~FreshCloud™ Transit Insights platform. The agreement will utilize both companies’ resources and strengths to ~~Zest Labs, Inc. to align its corporate name~~provide customers with ~~its mission~~a comprehensive solution that improves operations, increases visibility into produce shelf-life and ~~the brand name of its products and services.~~reduces food waste.

The Zest Fresh value proposition is to reduce fresh food loss by improving quality consistency. In the U.S. produce market, it is reported that roughly 30% of post-harvest fresh food is lost or wasted and therefore not consumed. Both fresh food producers and retailers bear significant expense when harvested food is either rejected due to early spoilage or reduced in value due to early ripening. Zest Labs believes that a significant portion of this waste can be attributed to inconsistent freshness based on variable post-harvest processing and handling. Fresh food producers and retailers manage food distribution and inventory based on the harvest date, with the assumption that all food harvested on the same day will have the same freshness. However, studies have shown that post-harvest handling can have a significant effect on the actual remaining freshness, and if not properly managed, can result in food loss or spoilage ahead of expectations, leading to waste and lost profits. Zest Fresh empowers fresh food producers and retailers to significantly reduce the post-harvest loss by providing real-time guidance to process adherence, intelligent distribution and best handling practices, with a goal of providing significant financial savings to fresh food producers and retailers.

Zest Labs has developed the industry’s first freshness metric called the Zest Intelligent Pallet Routing Code (“ZIPR Code”). The ZIPR Code ~~dynamically determines~~has three main components: Harvest Quality which sets total freshness capacity (for example, 12 days for strawberries), Handling Impact which reflects aging acceleration due to improper handling, and Future Handling which accurately reflects how the ~~actual~~product will be handled (for example, store shelf ~~life~~temperature may be 40 degrees Fahrenheit instead of the tracked product, differentiated from the assumed shelf life reflected by date labels. Zest Labs has found that for most produce, the implied shelf life from date labels can be wrong roughly 30% of the time. As produce date labels are typically the same date for all product harvested on the same day, roughly 30% of the product harvested may have less shelf life than reflected on the date label. The ZIPR Code addresses this shortcoming with its dynamic shelf life determination based on actual handling at the pallet level. The ZIPR code empowers better decisions on routing and customer determination, significantly reducing waste due to early spoilage.ideal 34 degrees Fahrenheit).

Zest Fresh is offered to fresh food producers, processors, distributors and retailers with pricing based on the number of pallets managed by Zest Fresh, typically from the field harvest through retail delivery. The Zest Fresh service includes a re-usable wireless Internet of Things (“IoT”) condition sensor that travels with the pallet of fresh food from the field or processor through retail delivery, continuously collecting product condition data. The collected pallet product data is analyzed, using artificial intelligence-based predictive analytics in real time by the Zest Fresh cloud application, with the fresh food producers and retailers accessing data through Zest Fresh web and mobile applications. Zest Fresh provides workers with real-time feedback on the current handling or processing of each pallet, empowering best practice adherence to achieve maximum freshness. Zest Fresh also provides dynamic updates as to actual product freshness for each pallet, enabling intelligent routing and inventory management of each pallet in a manner that ensures optimum delivered freshness. Zest also offers integrated blockchain support to grower and shipper customers via the Zest Fresh platform.

Zest Labs’ Zest Delivery solution helps to manage prepared food delivery from the restaurant through to the customer. Zest Delivery manages the delivery container environment, both monitoring and controlling the product condition. The value of Zest Delivery is to manage prepared meals in an ideal state for consumption, while accommodating extended pre-staging or delivery times. Extended pre-staging times are associated with “instant delivery” services of prepared meals, where the meals are often pre-staged in a delivery area ahead of demand. While pre-staging enables fast demand response time, it can result in prepared meals being staged for extended periods, which can potentially impact quality, value and safety. Zest Delivery monitors and controls the delivery container environment to preserve the prepared meal in ideal, ready to consume condition. Zest Delivery also provides the dispatcher with real-time remote visibility to the condition of available meals and confirming quality prior to dispatch. Zest Delivery provides automated, real-time visibility for a very distributed fleet of drivers, reflecting prepared meal food safety, quality and availability. Zest Delivery is offered to meal delivery companies based on the quantity of delivery containers and frequency of use.

Zest Labs currently holds rights to 67 U.S. patents (with additional patents pending), numerous related foreign patents, and U.S. copyrights relating to certain aspects of its Zest Labs’ software, hardware devices including Radio-Frequency Identification (“RFID”) technology, software, and services. In addition, Zest Labs has registered, and/or has applied to register trademarks and service marks in the U.S. and a number of foreign countries for “Intelleflex,” the Intelleflex logo, “Zest,” “Zest Data Services,” and the Zest, Zest Fresh and Zest Delivery logos, ZIPR and numerous other trademarks and service marks. Many of Zest Labs’ products have been designed to include licensed intellectual property obtained from third-parties. Laws and regulations related to wireless communications devices in the jurisdictions in which Zest Labs operates and seeks to operate are extensive and subject to change. Wireless communication devices, such as RFID readers, are subject to certification and regulation by governmental and standardization bodies. These certification processes are extensive and time consuming, and could result in additional testing requirements, product modifications or delays in product shipment dates.

Although most components essential to Zest Labs’ business are generally available from multiple sources, certain key components including, but not limited to, microprocessors, enclosures, certain RFID or other wireless custom integrated circuits, and application-specific integrated circuits are currently obtained by Zest Labs from single or limited sources, principally in Asia.

Zest Labs is part of a very competitive industry that markets solutions to fresh food supply chain users, such as fresh food growers, producers and retailers. Many other companies that are both more established and command much greater resources compete in this market. While Zest Fresh and Zest Delivery offer new technical approaches and new user value, it remains uncertain if Zest Labs will gain sufficient adoption of its products to make them viable in the market. Further, it is unclear what industry competitors are developing that might address similar user needs. Zest Labs’ products provide a new approach for industry participants, and as with any new approach, adoption is uncertain as many in the industry can be slow to embrace new technology and/or new approaches. These market challenges can lead to extended sales cycles that may include extended pilot testing often at Zest Labs’ expense, for which the outcome remains unclear until the completion of each test. For these reasons, and others, forecasting new business adoption and future revenue can be very difficult and volatile. However, the Company believes that its solutions offer restaurants, fresh food retailers, growers, shippers, processors and distributors an opportunity to differentiate their businesses in ways that the shipment of canned and boxed food products cannot, as competition in the grocery market continues to accelerate.

On May 18, 2017, the Company entered into an exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with Zest Labs, 440labs, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (“440labs”), SphereIt, LLC, a Massachusetts limited liability company (“SphereIt”) and three of 440labs’ executive employees. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, on May 23, 2017 the Company acquired all of the shares of 440labs in exchange for 300 shares of the Company’s common stock issued to SphereIt. 440labs is a cloud and mobile software developer which is now a subsidiary of Zest Labs. 440labs’ three executive employees signed employment agreements pursuant to which each of the three executive employees received 100 shares of the Company’s common stock and became employed by Zest Labs.

The acquisition of 440labs in May 2017 allowed Zest Labs to internally maintain its software development and information solutions for cloud, mobile, and IoT applications. 440labs is not expected to generate revenue for the Company. 440labs had been a key development partner with Zest Labs for more than four years prior to the May 2017 acquisition, contributing its expertise in scalable enterprise cloud solutions and mobile applications.

Pioneer Products is located in Bentonville, Arkansas and is involved in the selling of recycled plastic products. This subsidiary recovers plastic waste from retail supply chains that is converted to new consumer products from the reclaimed materials, completing a closed loop and reducing waste sent to landfills. Pioneer Products was purchased by Ecoark in 2012. Pioneer Products acquired Sable in a stock transaction on May 3, 2016, so its results are included with Pioneer’s since May 2016. In May 2018 the Ecoark Holdings Board approved a plan to sell Pioneer. Any proceeds from a sale are not expected to be material.

Sable is located in Flowery Branch, Georgia and specializes in the sale, purchase and processing of and post-industrial plastic materials. It provides products to a variety of suppliers and customers throughout the plastics processing industry, from small extruders, molders and scrap collectors to large corporations. In May 2018 the Ecoark Holdings Board approved a plan to sell key assets of Sable. An agreement to sell the Sable assets was executed with an expected closing date of August 31, 2018, however, the buyer purportedly failed to obtain financing under terms acceptable to them and did not close timely, so the Company terminated the agreement.

On January 23, 2019 the Company executed a letter of intent with a potential buyer of key assets of Sable. The terms call $800 for the sale of equipment and for the sale of inventory at fair value (which approximates cost) on the date of closing. The Company would retain receivables and payables incurred through closing. Due diligence activities are in process and are scheduled to conclude on March 4, 2019 with final closing expected to occur no later than March 11, 2019.

Magnolia Solar is located in Woburn, Massachusetts and is principally engaged in the development of nanotechnology-based, high-efficiency, thin-film technology that can be deposited on a variety of substrates, including glass and flexible structures. In May 2018 the Ecoark Holdings Board approved a plan to sell Magnolia Solar. Any proceeds from a sale are not expected to be material.

~~The Company’s subsidiaries operate~~Zest Labs operates in markets for products and services that are highly competitive and face aggressive competition in all areas of their business.

The market for cloud-based, real-time supply chain analytic solutions—the market in which Zest Labs competes—is rapidly evolving. There are several new competitors with competing technologies, including companies that have greater resources than Ecoark Holdings, ~~such as IBM, Oracle and SAP,~~ which operate in this space. Some of these companies are subsidiaries of large publicly traded companies that have brand recognition, established relationships with retailers, and own the manufacturing process.

Pioneer Products competes in the market for recycled products to support sustainability programs of its customers. There are currently hundreds of sustainability programs available in the market. These programs are offered through retailers, manufacturers, and service providers. Several competitors operating in this industry are vertically integrated and offer recycled products similar to those sold by Pioneer.

We sell our products and services principally through direct sales efforts and the utilization of third-party agents. Zest Labs has marketing operations and programs for demand generation, public relations, and branding/messaging.

We have devoted a substantial amount of our resources to software and hardware development activities in recent years, principally for the Zest Labs initiatives. Ecoark Holdings believes that, analyzing the competitive factors affecting the market for the solutions and services its subsidiaries provide, its products and services compete favorably by offering integrated solutions to customers. The Company has incurred research and development expenses of ~~$2,541~~$897 and ~~$4,639~~$870 in the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~December 31,~~June 30, 2019 and 2018, ~~and 2017,~~ respectively, to develop its solutions and differentiate those solutions from competitive offerings. We incurred no capitalized software development costs in the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~December 31, 2018~~June 30, 2019 and ~~2017.~~2018.

Ecoark Holdings and its subsidiaries have had 67 patents issued by the United States Patent and Trademark Office, and additional patent applications are currently pending.

In reading and understanding the Company’s discussion of results of operations, liquidity and capital resources, and the ~~accompanying~~audited financial statements that follow, one should be aware of key policies, judgments and assumptions that are important to the portrayal of financial conditions and results. The Company’s continuing operations have not generated sufficient revenues and related cash flows to date to fund the Company’s operations. That raises a question as to whether we are a “going concern”. Because we have been successful at raising capital and have a substantial credit facility in place, we assume that we will continue operations and thus have not used liquidation accounting which would assume that liquidation was imminent.

~~Our revenues from periods prior to fiscal 2018 were generated principally from the sale of hardware. In the nine months ended December 31,~~Since April 1, 2018, revenues were principally from a professional services ~~project~~ and more importantly from Software as a Service (“SaaS”) arrangements that we expect to be a principal source of revenue in the future. We adopted a new accounting policy for revenue recognition on April 1, 2017 that had no impact on historical reported results, and it positions us for what we expect our business to be in the future. It requires judgment to apply, but in plain English it recognizes revenue when the Company fulfills the obligations it has committed to in agreements with customers. Judgment is also required to estimate the costs associated with those revenues. The transition from Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 605 to ASC 606,Revenue, was not material to our financial statements.

A significant percentage of our operating expenses results from non-cash share-based compensation, which is typical of technology companies. We have granted shares, options and warrants to employees, consultants and investors as incentives to generate success for the Company instead of making cash payments. The accounting calculations for this type of compensation can be complex and are derived from models like the Black-Scholes option pricing model that requires judgment in making assumptions and developing estimates.

We used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate derivative liabilities associated with warrants issued in conjunction with capital raises. See additional discussion of those transactions in Notes 1 and 3 to the financial statements.

We have also invested heavily in research and development expenses. Those investments have required cash payments principally for the development of our software solutions and the testing of those solutions in our labs and on some customer projects. We have not capitalized any of that development effort, so there are no ~~research and development~~R&D costs to amortize in the future.

Given the strategic focus on Zest Labs moving forward, we ~~are in the process of divesting~~divested the remaining assets and operations that principally ~~consist~~consisted of our plastic resin and trash can ~~business.~~businesses. The decision to divest approved by our Board resulted in the reclassification of current and historical amounts related to those businesses. Judgment was required to estimate the fair value of the assets that we ~~intend~~intended to ~~sell.~~sell prior to the final sales. We ~~have~~ recorded impairments or non-cash write-downs of some of those assets, including intangible assets that include goodwill.

We have been conservative in our treatment of income taxes. Our historical losses have resulted in net operating losses for tax purposes. Applying accounting policies, we have recorded a “valuation allowance” against both current and future tax benefits of the losses. We will not recognize any benefits until such time as we are assured that we will generate taxable income.

The discussion below addresses the Company’s operations and liquidity which were impacted by the acquisition of ~~440labs~~Trend Holdings in May ~~2017 and the sale of Eco3d in April 2017~~2019 as described above. Results from ~~Eco3d,~~ Sable, Pioneer Products and Magnolia Solar are included as discontinued operations in the statements of operations and therefore, the revenues and expenses for these entities are not included in the amounts and discussion of results of continuing operations below, except in the Net Loss summary.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended ~~December 31, 2018~~June 30, 2019 were ~~$1,943~~$1,550 compared with ~~$7,784~~$2,091 for the three months ended ~~December 31, 2017.~~June 30, 2018. The ~~$5,841~~$541 decrease was principally due to a ~~$5,236~~$505 decrease in share-based non-cash ~~share-based compensation. Excluding non-cash share-based~~ compensation, for the three months ended December 31, 2018, selling general and administrative expenses decreased $605 from $1,738 for the three months ended December 31, 2017 to $1,133 for the three months ended December 31, 2018, due to decreases in salaries and related costs, a decrease in the use of consultants and efforts to control general and administrative costs including travel and travel-related expenses.

Salaries and related costs for the three months ended ~~December 31, 2018~~June 30, 2019 were ~~$1,220,~~$799, down ~~$5,238~~$814 from ~~$6,458~~$1,613 for the three months ended ~~December 31, 2017.~~June 30, 2018. The decrease resulted primarily from a ~~$4,784~~$544 decrease in share-based non-cash ~~share-based compensation along with reductions in staff and salaries of employees that reduced cash expenditures.~~compensation. A portion of ~~the share-based compensation~~that cost was derived from estimates of stock option expense calculated using a Black-Scholes model which can vary based on assumptions utilized and share-based compensation expense from awards of stock grants. Additional information on that equity expense can be found in Note 912 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, which complies with critical accounting policies driven by Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718-10. Decreases in the number of employees and related costs also contributed to the reduction in salaries and related costs.

Professional fees and consulting expenses for the three months ended ~~December 31, 2018~~June 30, 2019 of ~~$340,~~$94, were down ~~$315~~$166 from ~~$655~~$260 incurred for the three months ended ~~December 31, 2017~~June 30, 2018 as the engagement of consultants was significantly decreased during the current period.

Depreciation, amortization and impairment expenses for the three months ended ~~December 31, 2018~~June 30, 2019 were ~~$306~~$77 compared to ~~$185~~$309 for the three months ended ~~December 31, 2017.~~June 30, 2018.

The ~~reduction in costs~~expense related primarily to the ~~maturing of~~ development of the Zest Labs freshness ~~management and monitoring solution.~~

Interest expense, net of interest income for the three months ended December 31, 2018 was $362 as compared to net interest expense of $11 for the three months ended December 31, 2017. The change resulted from fees associated with the demand note payable discussed in Note 7 that were netted from the initial loan funding and recognized as interest expense.

Net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2018 was $4,270 as compared to $10,017 for the three months ended December 31, 2017. The $5,747 decrease in net loss was primarily due to the $5,236 decrease in non-cash share-based compensation, a decrease in professional fees and a decrease in research and development expenditures, offset by a $234 increase in loss from discontinued operations.

~~Results of Continuing Operations for the Nine Months Ended December 31, 2018 and 2017~~

Revenues for the nine months ended December 31, 2018 were $1,054 as compared to $33 for the nine months ended December 31, 2017. Revenues of $1,000 were from Walmart. Walmart has not paid $500 from the summer of 2018 after paying $1,000 in prior months. Accordingly, we have established an allowance for doubtful accounts in the amount of $500 in the event that Walmart does not pay these amounts. SaaS revenues of $39 in 2018 were from projects with Costco and produce distributors and growers, while the revenue in 2017 was from projects with produce growers and distributors plus the sale of hardware.

Cost of revenues for the nine months ended December 31, 2018 was $653 as compared to $72 for the nine months ended December 31, 2017 resulting in gross profit of $401 in 2018 and gross loss of $39 in 2017. The significant increase in gross profit in 2018 was directly related to providing professional services to Walmart. The gross loss in 2017 was due primarily to royalties for cross license agreements on patents imbedded with Zest freshness solutions intellectual property.

Operating expenses for the nine months ended December 31, 2018 were $9,992 as compared to $33,447 for the nine months ended December 31, 2017. The $23,455 decrease was due primarily to non-cash share-based compensation which decreased by $19,499. Excluding non-cash share-based compensation for the nine months ended December 31, 2018, operating expenses decreased $3,956 due to reductions in staff and salaries, reductions in other selling, general and administrative expenses and reduced research and development expenditures, each as described below.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended December 31, 2018 were $6,527 compared with $28,317 for the nine months ended December 31, 2017. The $21,790 decrease was principally due to a $19,496 decrease in non-cash share-based compensation. Excluding non-cash share-based compensation, selling general and administrative expenses decreased $2,294 due to a decrease in salaries and related costs, a decrease in the use of consultants, and efforts to control general and administrative costs including travel and travel-related expenses offset by the $500 charge related to the Walmart receivable.

Salaries and related costs for the nine months ended December 31, 2018 were $4,240, down $19,125 from $23,365 for the nine months ended December 31, 2017. The decrease resulted primarily from a $17,594 decrease in non-cash share-based compensation along with reductions in staff and salaries of employees that reduced cash expenditures by approximately $3,000. A portion of the share-based compensation was derived from estimates of stock option expense calculated using a Black-Scholes model which can vary based on assumptions utilized and share-based compensation expense from awards of stock grants. Additional information on that equity expense can be found in Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, which complies with critical accounting policies driven by ASC 718-10.

Professional fees and consulting expenses for the nine months ended December 31, 2018 of $306 were down $2,232 from $2,538 incurred for the nine months ended December 31, 2017. Non-cash share-based compensation expense decreased $1,902, and the engagement of consultants was decreased during the current period.

Depreciation, amortization and impairment expenses for the nine months ended December 31, 2018 were $924 compared to $491 for the nine months ended December 31, 2017. The $433 increase primarily resulted from depreciation on the $2,477 of assets previously classified as inventory that were reclassified to property and equipment as of March 31, 2018 as Zest Labs entered into SaaS contracts and a full nine months of amortization of the identifiable intangible assets related to the 440labs acquisition in May 2017.

Research and development expense decreased by $2,098 to $2,541 in the nine months ended December 31, 2018 compared with $4,639 during the same period in 2017. The reduction in costs related primarily to reduced spend on engineer salaries at Zest Labs and payments to reimburse Walmart for costs associated with work on a project in 2017 that did not recur in 2018.solutions.

Interest expense, net of interest income, for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~December 31, 2018~~June 30, 2019 was ~~$369~~$64 as compared to ~~$41~~$11 for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~December 31, 2017.~~June 30, 2018. The ~~change~~increase resulted from ~~fees associated with~~interest on the ~~demand note payable discussed~~credit facility and advances from related parties in ~~Note 7 that were netted from the initial loan funding~~2019 and ~~recognized as~~ interest ~~expense, offset by a reduction~~on convertible notes in ~~interest expense on $500 debt outstanding that was paid in full in July~~ 2018.

Net loss for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~December 31, 2018~~June 30, 2019 was ~~$11,883~~$1,646 as compared to ~~$35,593~~$3,227 for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~December 31, 2017.~~June 30, 2018. The ~~$23,710~~$1,581 decrease in net loss was primarily due to the ~~$19,499~~$624 increase in other income from the change in fair value of warrant derivative liabilities, the absence of the $590 loss from discontinued operations incurred in 2018, the $505 decrease in non-cash share-based compensation, and ~~decreases in salaries, professional fees and research and development expenditures and a $762~~the $232 decrease in ~~loss from discontinued operations~~depreciation and amortization expense, offset by ~~the absence of the gain on sale of Eco3d of $636 in April 2017.~~lower gross profit from professional services.

On April 14, 2017, the Company sold the assets, liabilities and membership interests in Eco3d to a group led by executives of Eco3d after the Company’s Board concluded that Eco3d did not fit the future strategic direction of the Company. In accordance with ASC 205-20 and having met the criteria for “held for sale”, the Company had included amounts relating to Eco3d as part of discontinued operations in the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017. In addition, as a result of receiving letters of intent for the sale of key assets of Sable (principally equipment and inventory), Pioneer and Magnolia Solar, and the approval by the Company’s Board in May 2018 to sell the assets, those assets are included in assets held for sale and their ongoing operations are classified in discontinued operations in all periods presented.

Loss from discontinued operations for the three months ended ~~December 31,~~June 30, 2018 was ~~$757.~~$590. Revenues from discontinued operations were $2,815, all from Pioneer and Sable. This represented a 30% increase over 2017 driven by a 900 thousand pound increase in shipments at Sable. Losses from discontinued operations were $743, including an impairment charge of $400, for Pioneer and Sable and $14 for Magnolia Solar. The increase in net loss from discontinued operations of nearly $234 in 2018 compared with 2017 was principally due to a smaller impairment charge taken in 2018 compared to 2017 offset by continued losses in Sable operations in 2018.

For the three months ended December 31, 2017 loss from discontinued operations was $523. Revenues from discontinued operations were $2,101 for Pioneer and Sable and $60 for Magnolia. Losses from discontinued operations were $495 for Pioneer and Sable plus $29 for Magnolia Solar.

~~Loss from discontinued operations for the nine months ended December 31, 2018 was $1,923. Revenues from discontinued operations were $7,941, an 18% increase over 2017,~~$2,479, comprised of ~~$7,881~~$2,419 for Pioneer and Sable and $60 for Magnolia Solar. ~~Sable shipments increased by 2.8 million pounds, while~~ Pioneer had a decrease in sales of consumer trash cans made from recycled materials due to a unit price decrease and fewer promotions by a customer. Losses from discontinued operations were ~~$1,859~~$558 for Pioneer and Sable and ~~$64~~$32 for Magnolia Solar. The reduction in net loss from discontinued operations of nearly $763 in 2018 compared with 2017 was principally due to the smaller impairment charge taken in 2018 compared to 2017 and improvements in Sable operations in 2018.

For the nine months ended December 31, 2017, loss from discontinued operations was $2,685. Revenues from discontinued operations were $188 for Eco3d and $6,490 for Pioneer and Sable. Losses from discontinued operations were $57 for Eco3d and $2,578 for Pioneer and Sable losses were driven by lower volumes and ~~$50 at Magnolia Solar.~~a unit price decrease as previously described.

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. Significant factors in the management of liquidity are funds generated by operations, levels of accounts receivable and accounts payable and capital expenditures.

To date we have financed our operations through sales of common stock and the issuance of debt.

At ~~December 31, 2018~~June 30, 2019 and March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, we had cash of ~~$846~~$34 and ~~$3,730,~~$244, respectively, and ~~negative~~ working capital deficits of ~~$441~~$6,018 at ~~December 31, 2018 compared with working capital of $3,261~~June 30, 2019 and $5,045 at March 31, 2018. The higher cash balance at March 31, 2018 reflected $3,587, net of expenses, raised in a private placement in March. The decrease in working capital reflects the $2,884 lower cash balance plus a net increase in debt payable of $500; and it does not take into account approximately $800 of equipment at Sable that is not included in current assets, but may be converted to cash upon the sale contemplated in March 2019. The Company is dependent upon raising additional ~~funds~~capital from ~~additional loans from the $10,000 credit facility described in Note 7 to the accompanying financial statements, other~~ future financing ~~transactions, the sale of Sable or other assets and or resolution of the lawsuit with Walmart.~~transactions.

Net cash used in operating activities was ~~$7,282~~$973 for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~December 31, 2018,~~June 30, 2019, as compared to net cash used in operating activities of ~~$14,911~~$1,913 for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~December 31, 2017.~~June 30, 2018. Cash used in operating activities is related to the Company’s net loss partially offset by non-cash expenses, including share-based compensation and depreciation, amortization and impairments.

~~The $7,629 reduction in~~Net cash provided by investing activities was $5 for the three months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to net cash used in operating activities resulted from concerted efforts to reduce the cash burn which are described above in the discussion and analysis of results of operations. Significant reductions included approximately $3,000 in salaries and related costs, $2,000 in research and development expenditures, and a reduction in cash burn related to discontinued operations of approximately $1,000.

~~Net~~ cash used in investing activities ~~was $270~~of $46 for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~December 31,~~June 30, 2018 ~~as compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $839 for the nine months ended December 31, 2017 which included $2,100 proceeds from the sale of Eco3d.~~

Net cash provided by financing activities in 2019 were $758 and used in financing activities in 2018 was ~~$4,668 compared with $7,599~~$23. Cash provided by financing in ~~2017, primarily~~2019 includes $460 draw on the credit facility and $298 advanced from the issuance of common stock, net of fees, of $4,221 and borrowing of $1,000 ($635, net of fees and expenses) under the demand note payable in 2018 and $9,106 from the issuance of common stock, net of fees, in 2017. The Company paid offrelated parties.

At June 30, 2019, $500 of ~~debt~~Ecoark Holdings’ convertible notes payable were due in July 2018 and ~~purchased treasury shares from employees for tax withholdings of $53 in 2018 and $1,507 in 2017.~~

~~At December 31, 2018, future~~were paid on July 2, 2018. Future minimum lease payments required under operating leases of continuing operations ~~by fiscal year~~ are as follows: $2019 - $41 and 2020 - $127. Including the lease at Sable would result in minimum lease payments in the following fiscal years of $137 in 2019, $510 in 2020, $386 in 2021, $389 in 2022 and $293 in 2023.$113.

Since our inception, the Company has experienced negative cash flow from operations and may experience significant negative cash flow from operations in the future. We will need to raise additional funds in the future to continue to expand the Company’s operations and meet its obligations. The Company raised additional capital through the issuance of common stock, net of fees, in private placements, issuances under equity purchase agreements and sales of convertible notes of $12,693 in the year ended March 31, 2018 and $4,856 in the nine months ended December 31, 2018, primarily through the issuance of common stock and a note payable related to a $10,000 demand line of credit facility that provided cash net of fees of $635. The Company will rely on the $10,000 demand line of credit to fund its current operations until it can generate significant revenue and profit. There is no guarantee that the lender will be able to fund the $10,000 line of credit or it will be available to the Company.

Obtaining additional financing and the successful development of the Company’s strategic plan to achieve profitability are necessary for the Company to continue operations. There can be no assurance that such capital will be available or on terms acceptable to the Company. Further, there can also be no assurance that the Company will meet the SEC’s Form S-3 eligibility requirements to use its shelf registration aggregate if the market value of the outstanding common stock held by the Company’s non-affiliates remains below $75 million.

Generating capital through completion of the divesting of non-core assets and resolution of the lawsuit against Walmart described in Legal Proceedings elsewhere in this quarterly report is also uncertain. The inability to obtain additional capital may restrict our ability to grow and may reduce the ability to continue to conduct business operations as a going concern.

As ~~December 31, 2018~~of June 30, 2019, and March 31, ~~2018,~~2019, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, as of December 31, 2018, the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision andOur management, with the participation of our principal executive and financial officers, has evaluated the ~~Company’s current~~effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, including ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to management ~~including~~(including the ~~Company’s Chief Executive Officer~~principal executive and ~~Principal Financial Officer (Principal Financial~~financial officers) as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive and ~~Accounting Officer), who~~financial officers have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective given the identification of ~~two~~three material weaknesses in controls.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Company reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer (Principal Financial and Accounting Officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We have advised our audit committee of ~~two~~three material weaknesses in internal control. The first weakness relates to inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives. In an effort to reduce expenses, the Company reduced its accounting and administrative staff at the parent company level to the extent that achieving desired control objectives were deemed at risk.

The second weakness relates to disclosure controls and violations of the Company’s delegation of authority and related policies that were established and approved by the board of directors. The Company ~~is working~~continues to work with the board and board committees to communicate and reemphasize Company policies including the delegation of authority to reduce the risk of errors or omissions that could result in inaccurate or incomplete disclosures.

The third weakness relates to the failure to recognize derivative liabilities associated with warrants issued in conjunction with capital raises. The transactions were complex financings heavily dependent upon the use of estimates and assumptions and subjective interpretations of generally accepted accounting principles that are now the subject of a proposed Accounting Standards Update for which the FASB is requesting comments.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial ~~reporting.~~reporting, except that we experienced the conversion of our principal accounting officer from employee to consultant and lost other members of our accounting staff. The Company has taken steps to mitigate the impact of these changes.

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

From time to time, we may become involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. We are not presently involved in any pending legal proceeding or litigation ~~including~~other than a suit filed by the Company in Arkansas on August 1, 2018, and a suit we filed against us in ~~Maryland to collect a receivable from a customer.~~Florida on December 12, 2018. To the best of our knowledge, no governmental authority is contemplating any proceeding to which we are a party or to which any of our properties or businesses are subject, which would reasonably be likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

On August 1, 2018, Ecoark Holdings, Inc. and Zest Labs, Inc. filed a complaint against Walmart Inc. in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas, Western Division. The complaint includes claims for violation of the Arkansas Trade Secrets Act, violation of the federal Defend Trade Secrets Act, breach of contract, unfair competition, unjust enrichment, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, conversion and fraud. Ecoark Holdings and Zest Labs are seeking monetary damages ~~of more than two billion dollars~~ and other related relief to the extent it is deemed proper by the court. The Company does not believe that expenses incurred in pursuing the complaint will have a material effect on the Company’s net income or financial condition for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019 or any individual fiscal quarter. On October 22, 2018, the Court issued an order setting a trial date of June 1, 2020. The order also established deadlines for the completion of fact discovery by October 15, 2019, opening expert reports on October 24, 2019, and dispositive motions, on January 22, 2020. The case is presently in the fact discovery phase.

On ~~June 20,~~December 12, 2018, a complaint was filed against the Company ~~and certain affiliates was filed by a former consultant~~ in the ~~U.S. District Court - Northern District of California.~~Twelfth Judicial Circuit in Sarasota County, Florida by certain investors who invested in the Company before it was public. The complaint ~~refers~~alleges that the investment advisors who solicited the investors to ~~an advisory agreement dated January 1, 2015 with Ecoark, Inc., a subsidiary of~~invest into the Company ~~in which~~made omissions and misrepresentations concerning the ~~former consultant was to provide advice~~Company and ~~consultation to Ecoark, Inc. in exchange for consulting fees, expenses and a warrant to purchase equity in Ecoark, Inc. The matter was settled in January 2019.~~the shares. The Company ~~recorded~~filed a ~~charge of $20 in connection with~~motion to dismiss the ~~settlement of the matter.~~complaint which is pending.

There have been no material changes to the risk factors affecting our business that were discussed in Part I. “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, ~~2018~~2019 filed with the SEC on ~~June 28, 2018.~~August 19, 2019.

We did not sell any securities during the quarter ended ~~December 31, 2018,~~June 30, 2019, which were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The following table contains information regarding shares of common stock withheld from employees in lieu of amounts required to satisfy minimum tax withholding requirements upon vesting of the employees’ stock during the three months ended December 31, 2018. The shares of common stock withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations may be deemed purchases of such shares required to be disclosed pursuant to this Item 2.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
