CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AND INDUSTRY DATA

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements which are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These statements may be identified by such forward-looking terminology as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Our forward-looking statements are based on a series of expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about our company, are not guarantees of future results or performance and involve substantial risks and uncertainty. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in these forward-looking statements. Actual results or events could differ materially from the plans, intentions and expectations disclosed in these forward-looking statements. Our business and our forward-looking statements involve substantial known and unknown risks and uncertainties, including the risks and uncertainties inherent in our statements regarding:

our projected financial position and estimated cash burn rate;
our estimates regarding expenses, future revenues and capital requirements;
our ability to continue as a going concern;
our need to raise substantial additional capital to fund our operations;
our ability to compete in the global space industry;
our ability to obtain and maintain intellectual property protection for our current products and services;
our ability to protect our intellectual property rights and the potential for us to incur substantial costs from lawsuits to enforce or protect our intellectual property rights;
the possibility that a third party may claim we have infringed, misappropriated or otherwise violated their intellectual property rights and that we may incur substantial costs and be required to devote substantial time defending against these claims;
our reliance on third-party suppliers and manufacturers;
the success of competing products or services that are or become available;
our ability to expand our organization to accommodate potential growth and our ability to retain and attract key personnel;
the potential for us to incur substantial costs resulting from lawsuits against us and the potential for these lawsuits to cause us to limit our commercialization of our products and services;

All of our forward-looking statements are as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q only. In each case, actual results may differ materially from such forward-looking information. We can give no assurance that such expectations or forward-looking statements will prove to be correct. An occurrence of, or any material adverse change in, one or more of the risk factors or risks and uncertainties referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or included in our other public disclosures or our other periodic reports or other documents or filings filed with or furnished to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) could materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Except as required by law, we do not undertake or plan to update or revise any such forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in plans, assumptions, estimates or projections or other circumstances affecting such forward-looking statements occurring after the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, even if such results, changes or circumstances make it clear that any forward-looking information will not be realized. Any public statements or disclosures by us following this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that modify or impact any of the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q will be deemed to modify or supersede such statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain estimates and other statistical data made by independent parties and by us relating to market size and growth and other data about our industry. We obtained the industry and market data in this annual report on Form 10-Q from our own research as well as from industry and general publications, surveys and studies conducted by third parties. This data involves a number of assumptions and limitations and contains projections and estimates of the future performance of the industries in which we operate that are subject to a high degree of uncertainty, including those discussed in “Risk Factors.” We caution you not to give undue weight to such projections, assumptions, and estimates. Further, industry and general publications, studies and surveys generally state that they have been obtained from sources believed to be reliable, although they do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of such information. While we believe that these publications, studies, and surveys are reliable, we have not independently verified the data contained in them. In addition, while we believe that the results and estimates from our internal research are reliable, such results and estimates have not been verified by any independent source.

PINEAPPLE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2020September 30, 2023

(Unaudited)

Note 1 – Organization and Description of Business

Pineapple, Inc. (“Pineapple” or the “Company”) was originally formed in the stateState of Nevada under the name Global Resources, Ltd. on August 3, 1983.1983. On April 12, 1999, the Company changed its name to “Helixphere Technologies Inc.”. On October 2,September 19, 2013, the Company changed its name to “New China Global Inc.”.

On October 30, 2013, the Company filed its Articles of Continuance with the Secretary of State of Wyoming pursuant to which the Company was re-domiciled from the State of Nevada to the State of Wyoming. On July 15, 2014, the Company filed an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation to change its name from “New China Global Inc.” to “Globestar Industries”.

On August 24, 2015, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “BBC Agreement”) with Better Business Consultants, Inc. (“BBC”), a corporation incorporated under the laws of California on January 29, 2015, and Shane Oei, a majority shareholder of the Company at the time. Pursuant to the terms of the BBC Agreement, BBC shareholders exchanged all of the issued and outstanding capital of BBC for an aggregate of 50,000,000 newly and duly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of the Company. Upon closing, BBC became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In addition, Mr. Oei and Gary Stockport, another former shareholder of the Company at the time, cancelled 100,000,000 and 500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, respectively, in connection with the BBC Agreement. As the owners and management of BBC obtained voting and operating control of the Company after the share exchange and Globestar Industries was non-operating, the transaction was accounted for as a recapitalization of BBC, accompanied by the exchange of previously issued common stock for outstanding common stock of Globestar Industries, which was recorded at a nominal value. Upon consummation of the BBC Agreement, the Company ceased its prior business of providing educational services and continued the business of BBC as its sole line of business. BBC has three wholly owned subsidiaries, Pineapple Express One LLC, a California limited liability company, Pineapple Express Two LLC, a California limited liability company, and Pineapple Properties Investments, LLC, a Washington limited liability company.

On September 3, 2015, the Company changed its name to “Pineapple Express, Inc.” from “Globestar Industries.” The Company’s name hadhas no relation to the 2008 motion picture produced by Columbia Pictures. The Company later received regulatory approval from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) to change its name to Pineapple, Inc.

On February 12, 2016,March 10, 2023, the Company entered into an Amended Binding Letter Agreement with Mr. Ortega, effective as of Merger to acquire all of the assets and assume several liabilities of THC Industries, Inc. (“THC Parent”),December 31, 2022 amending a California corporation, through a two-step merger (the “THC Merger”) by and amongprior Binding Letter Agreement executed January 4, 2023, where the Company THC Parent, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary THC Industries, LLC (“THC”), a California limited liability company, and the Company’s former wholly owned subsidiary THCMergerCo., Inc., a California corporation. In June 2016, the Company began to anticipate significant difficulties in monetizing the value of the acquired intangible assets and recorded an impairment of those assets.

On August 5, 2016, the Company entered into a Forbearance Agreement with THC Industries, Inc. because of late payments. This sparked a temporary foreclosure of assets. On March 27, 2017, the Company entered into a Standstill and Waiver Agreement with THC Industries, Inc. because of additional late payments. On June 22, 2017, the Company successfully completed the conditions of the Standstill and Waiver Agreement signed between the parties on March 27, 2017. The Company made its payments and completed its conditions in full for the Forbearance Agreement. The Company gained back control of the assets relative to the purchase transaction.

ln addition to having stakes in the foregoing business ventures, the Company was also assigned a patent for the proprietary Top Shelf Safe Display System (“SDS”) for use in permitted cannabis dispensaries and delivery vehicles across the United States and internationally (where permitted by law), on July 20th, 2016 by Sky Island, Inc. (the “SDS Patent”) via a Patent Assignment Agreement (the “Patent Assignment Agreement”). The SDS Patent was originally applied for and filed on August 11, 2015 by Sky Island, Inc. and received its notice of allowance from the United States Patent and Trademark Office on March 22, 2017. It is anticipated that the Top-Shelf SDS product shall retail for $30,000 per unit. Pineapple intendsagreed to sell the Top-Shelf SDS units to PVI for use45.17% of its equity interest in retail storefronts and delivery vehicles as well as to sell the Top Shelf SDS technology to other cannabis retail companies. The Company anticipated beginning sales of the Top Shelf SDS system in the second quarter of 2021.

On March 14, 2017, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement to sell BBC and its three wholly owned subsidiaries, Pineapple Express One LLC, Pineapple Express Two LLC, and Pineapple Property Investments, LLC to a related party, Jaime Ortega, in exchange for Mr. Ortega forgiving a debt of $10,000 owed to Sky Island, Inc., a related party of the Company owned by Mr. Ortega, so that Mr. Ortega can fund and prosecute litigation claims and settle debts for the subsidiaries resulting from unconsummated parcel purchases which the Company feels was purposely circumvented by third parties involved in those transactions. Mr. Ortega, as an interested party, took these steps so the Company’s claims can be addressed against the parties at fault without negatively impacting or distracting the Company. The sale of BBC and its subsidiaries also included the transfer of liabilities owed by those entities. In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations, as this subsidiary was sold to an entity under common control of the Company, the $841,511 in liabilities transferred, net of $10,000 in consideration received, has been recorded as an increase to the Company’s additional paid-in-capital equity account. On January 27, 2018, the Company completed the sale of BBC, Pineapple Express One LLC, Pineapple Express Two LLC and Pineapple Property Investments, LLC to Mr. Ortega.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic, which continues to spread throughout the United States. As a result, significant volatility has occurred in both the United States and international markets. While the disruption is currently expected to be temporary, there is uncertainty around the duration. To date, the Company has experienced declining revenues, difficulty meeting debt covenants, maintaining consistent service quality with reduced revenue, and a loss of access to customers. Management expects this matter to continue to impact our business, results of operations, and financial position, but the ultimate financial impact of the pandemic on the Company’s business, results of operations, financial position, liquidity or capital resources cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

Use of Estimates in Financial Reporting

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include the recoverability and useful lives of long-lived assets, fair values of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, assessment of legal accruals, the fair value of the Company’s stock, stock-based compensationIncremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) used for leases and the valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

During the third quarter ended September 30, 2023, we completed an assessment of the IBR used on our operating leases entered into during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. We determined to modify the general rate we applied to all leases of 6.5% to use IBR rates estimated on the day of operating lease commencement, ranging from 6.2% to 6.95%, which allow for more accurate valuation of ROU assets and lease liability for each individual leased office premise. This change in accounting estimate was effective July 1, 2023 and was accounted for prospectively in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Reclassifications

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. (Note 13)

F-9F-7

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company follows the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. The FASB ASC establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The three levels of fair value hierarchy are described below:

Level 11-Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
Level 22-Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.
Level 33-Pricing inputs that are generally observableunobservable inputs and not corroborated by market data.

Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, including cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses,liabilities, and other current liabilities, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. The fair value of notes payable approximates their fair values since the current interest rates and terms on these obligations are the same as prevailing market rates.

CashAcquisition Under Common Control

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturitiesUnder ASC 805-50-30-5, when accounting for a transfer of three monthsassets or less to be cash equivalents. Cashexchange of shares between entities under common control, the receiving entity shall recognize the assets and cash equivalents are held in operating accountsliabilities transferred at a major financial institution. Cash balances may exceed federally insured limits. Management believestheir historical cost and under ASC 805-50-45-5 the financial risk associated with these balances is minimal and has not experienced any losses to date. statements presented for prior years shall be retrospectively adjusted for the periods during which the entities were under common control.

Security Deposits

As of March 31, 2020September 30, 2023, security deposits relate to security deposits paid for ten office premises of $375,971.

Inventory

Inventory is stated at lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined on the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company acquired inventory of hemp CBD wellness products of $4,710 and recorded inventory impairment of $27,336. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2019,2022, the Company had no cash balances in excessinventory of FDIC insured limits.$4,710 and $27,336, respectively.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment consist of furniture and fixtures and office equipment. They are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

The estimated useful lives of the classes of property and equipment are as follows:

Schedule of Estimated Useful Lives Property and Equipment

Investments

Investment – Equity Method

The Company accountsaccounted for its equity method investmentsinvestment PVI at cost, adjusted for the Company’s share of the investee’s earnings or losses, which are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company periodically reviews the investmentsinvestment for other than temporary declines in fair value below cost and more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. As of March 31,2020,December 31, 2022, management identified indicators of other-than-temporary impairment that at that period led to the Company believesconclusion that the carrying value of its equity method investments were recoverableinvestment is not recoverable. As a result, the Company has recorded an impairment write-down in all material respects.

Deposits

Deposits consistthe consolidated statements of security deposits maintained with lessorsoperations for the year ended December 31, 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the Company recorded income from equity method investment of $0 and $1,499,355, respectively.

Related Party Balances and Transactions

The Company follows FASB ASC 850, “Related Party Disclosures,” for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions. (Note 8)

Leases

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, operating lease liabilities - current, and operating lease liabilities - noncurrent on the balance sheets. Finance leases are included in property and equipment, other current liabilities, and other long-term liabilities in our balance sheets.

ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Non-lease components such as common area maintenance (“CAM”), variable expenses, and late fees were excluded from calculation for ROU assets and lease liabilities. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we generally use our incremental borrowing rate based on the estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease payments at commencement date. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease expense is reported under cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in line with the Company’s facility leases.main operation of procuring and leasing properties to licensed cannabis operators. For office premises that are not used for subleasing, leases expense is reported under lease expense of operating expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Sublease

Under ASC 842, income for a sublessor operating lease is recognized as a single lease income item on a straight-line basis over the lease term and reflected in the appropriate income statement line item based on the lease asset’s function. For transactions where the company is considered the sublessor, revenue for operating leases is recognized on a monthly basis over the term of the lease. Sublessor revenue relates to operating leases that the Company is subleasing. The Company recognizes sublease revenue on a gross basis. (see note 9)

LossRevenue Recognition

The Company’s revenue derives from sublease revenue and sales of CBD products.

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of CBD products in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue Recognition” following the five steps procedure:

Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with customers

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract

Step 3: Determine the transaction price

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations

Step 5: Recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation

F-9

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized revenue from the sale of CBD products of $90 and $1,153 and incurred cost of sales from CBD products of $0 and $756, resulting in gross profit of $90 and $397 from CBD products, respectively.

The Company recognizes revenue from subleasing of office premises in accordance with ASC842, “Lease Accounting”. The Company recognizes sublease revenue on monthly straight-line basis over the lease term on gross basis.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company recognized sublease revenue from related parties of $157,500 and $0 and incurred lease expense of $798,130 and $0, resulting in gross loss of $640,630 and $0 from subleases, respectively.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic lossincome (loss) per share is computed by dividing net lossincome (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted lossincome (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution, using the treasury stock method, that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the loss of the Company. In computing diluted lossincome (loss) per share, the treasury stock method assumes that outstanding options and warrants are exercised, and the proceeds are used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. Options and warrants may have a dilutive effect under the treasury stock method only when the average market price of the common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of the options and warrants.

F-10

At March 31, 2020September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2019,2022, the Company had no options or warrants outstanding and no shares issuable for conversion of notes payable.

Revenue RecognitionRecently Adopted and Pending Accounting Pronouncements

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance withIn June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”)Subtopic “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions”. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue whenThese amendments clarify that a customer obtains control of the promised goods or services. The amount of revenue that is recorded reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services, net of any variable consideration (e.g., rights to return product, sales incentives, others) and any taxes collected from customers and subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.

Our service revenues arise from contracts with customers and include consulting related to the licensing, development, and compliance areas of the cannabis business and operational dispensary management. The Company also provides marketing and branding consulting services. We did not identify any costs incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 directly attributable to generating consulting revenue, and therefore have not categorized any costs as costs of sales.

We recognize revenue when the following criteria are met:

The parties to the contract have approved the contract and are committed to perform their respective obligations – our customary practice is to obtain written evidence, typically in the form of a contract or purchase order.

Each party’s rights regarding the goods or services have been identified – we have rights to payment when services are completed in accordance with the underlying contract, or forcontractual restriction on the sale of goods when custodyan equity security is transferred to our customers either upon shipment to or receipt at our customers’ locations, with no right of return or further obligations.

The payment terms for the goods or services have been identified – prices are typically fixed, and no price protections or variables are offered.

The contract has commercial substance – our practice is to only enter into contracts that will positively affect our future cash flows.

Collectability is probable – we often require a deposit for all or a portionnot considered part of the goods or services to be delivered, as well as continually monitoring and evaluating customers’ ability to pay. Payment terms are typically zero to fifteen days within deliveryunit of account of the good or service.

Customer deposits are contract liabilities with customers that represent our obligation to either transfer goods or servicesequity security and, therefore, is not considered in the future, or refund the amount received. Where possible, we obtain customer deposits to lessen our risk of non-payment by our customers. Customer deposits are recognized as revenue as we perform under the contract. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company did not have any customer deposits recognized as unearned revenue.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company periodically issues restricted stock and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. The Company accounts for restricted stock and warrant grants issued and vesting to employees based on the authoritative guidance provided by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) where the value of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized as stock-based compensation expense on the straight-line basis over the vesting period.

The Company accounts for restricted stock and warrant grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with the authoritative guidance of the FASB where the value of the stock-based compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. In certain circumstances where there are no future performance requirements by the non-employee, restricted stock and warrants grants are immediately vested and the total stock-based compensation charge is recorded in the period of the measurement date.

Themeasuring fair value of the Company’s warrant grants, including the put option liability from the THC Merger, are estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton and Binomial Option Pricing models, which use certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the stock options or warrants, and future dividends. Compensation expense is recorded based upon the value derived from the Black-Scholes-Merton and Binomial Option Pricing models and based on actual experience. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes-Merton and Binomial Option Pricing models could materially affect compensation expense recorded in future periods. In light of the very limited trading of our common stock, the market value of the shares issued was determined based on the then most recent price per share at which we sold common stock in a private placement during the periods then ended. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31,2019, there were no outstanding warrants.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2017, the FASB has issued ASU No. 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” These amendments eliminate Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. The annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test is performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In addition, income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit should be considered when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable.value. The amendments also eliminate the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. The guidance isin this update are effective for public business entities that are SEC filers for fiscal years, including interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019.2023. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. ASU 2017-04 should be adopted on a prospective basis. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2020 and determined that its adoption has not had a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements, including eliminating the requirement to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, and requiring the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption, either of the entire standard or only the provisions that eliminate or modify requirements, is permitted. The Company adoptedis currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this guidance on January 1, 2020 and determined that its adoption has not had a material impactstandard on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.statements.

In August 2020, the FASB issued 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). The new ASU eliminates the beneficial conversion and cash conversion accounting models for convertible instruments. It also amends the accounting for certain contracts in an entity’s own equity that are currently accounted for as derivatives because of specific settlement provisions. In addition, the new guidance modifies how particular convertible instruments and certain contracts that may be settled in cash or shares impact the diluted EPS computation. The amendments in the ASU are effective for public business entities that meet the definition of an SEC filer, excluding entities eligible to be smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. ForCompany has considered all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Board also specified that an entity should adopt the guidance as of the beginning of its annual fiscal yearrecently issued accounting pronouncements and is not permitted to adopt the guidance in an interim period. The Company is still evaluating the effect the adoption will have on its financial statements.

F-12

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, as part as part of its overall simplification initiative to reduce costs and complexity of applying accounting standards while maintaining or improving the usefulness of the information provided to users of financial statements. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principle of ASC 740 in order to reduce the cost and complexity of its application. ASU 2019-12 is effective for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period, with any adjustments reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The Company does not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial statements.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statement presentation or disclosures.

Note 3 – Going Concern

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in its consolidated financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $13,695,411 at March 31, 2020$24,562,374 as of September 30, 2023 and incurred a net loss of $276,750 and utilized net cash of $146,771 in operating activities$1,023,610 during the threenine months ended March 31, 2020. September 30, 2023.

The Company has not generated significant revenues and has incurred net losses since inception.during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and in all prior years. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date that the consolidated financial statements are issued. The Company’s consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s primary source of operating funds since inception has been cash proceeds from the private placements of its common stock and from issuance of its short-term on demand loans, primarily from related parties. The Company intends to raise additional capital in the short term through addition of demand loans and, once the up-listingup listing to a higher exchange is completed, through private placements to sell restricted shares of common stock to investors. There can be no assurance that these funds will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all, or will be sufficient to enable the Company to fully complete its development activities or sustain operations. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company raised $148,671 in cash proceeds from the issuance of related party notes.

F-10

If the Company is unable to raise sufficient additional funds, it will have to develop and implement a plan to further extend payables, reduce overhead, scale back its current business plan and/or curtail operations until sufficient additional capital is raised to support further operations.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to execute its strategy and on its ability to raise additional funds and/or to consummate a public offering.funds. Management is currently seeking additional funds, primarily through the issuance of equity and/or debt securities for cash to operate the Company’s business. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company.it. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on its operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for its stockholders, in the case of equity and/or convertible debt financing.

Contrary to the case with Investor Two, the Company acknowledged the additional $62,500 liability provided for under BLOI1 and $187,500 was recorded as “advances on agreements” as a short-term deferred liability on the Company’s books and records.

In February 2019, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with Investor One which required the issuance of 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and established an additional principal sum for repayment of $200,000. The settlement includes installment payments of $10,000 per month beginning on February 15, 2019 until the balance is repaid and ends the accrual of interest. Prior to entering into the settlement agreement, the Company had recorded interest expense of $4,125, bringing the balance from $187,500 at December 31, 2018 to $191,625. The settlement agreement resulted in additional expense of $8,375. The Company made three $10,000 payments during the year ended December 31, 2019 and also reduced the value by another $1,000 in connection with the 20,000 shares being valued at $11,000 instead of the $10,000 value initially discussed.

Investor Three

In December 2015, the Company entered into a Revenue Share Agreement for $750,000 that was recorded as “advances on agreements” liability. As per the Revenue Share Agreement, in the event that, for the period from February 5, 2016 through the three year anniversary of the Effective Date, if Lessee fails to pay the Company any Fixed Minimum Rent, the Company shall be required to pay to Investor Three, in full, Investor Three’s share each month until the Company has paid Investor Three an aggregate of $825,000 under this Revenue Share Agreement. Thereafter, the Company shall have no further obligations or responsibilities to Investor Three in connection with this Revenue Share Agreement. Due to the above clause, by reason of defaults on the DHS Project (as defined elsewhere herein), an additional penalty of $75,000 was incurred which was recorded as deferred finance cost. During the fiscal year 2018, the Company reduced $200,000 of principal by transferring land to Investor Three. During the fiscal year 2018, the Company also recorded a loss on settlement of debt in the consolidated statements of operations increasing the balance by $97,800 to $615,000 at December 31, 2018, in accordance with a settlement discussed in further detail in Note 12. This balance remains outstanding at December 31, 2019.

Note 10 – Put Option Liability

In connection with the THC Merger, the Company granted the THC shareholders an option to require the Company to purchase from them up to 1,478,836 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.68 per share for the period commencing on the 24-month anniversary of the closing of the THC Merger and ending on the 30-month anniversary of the closing of the THC Merger; provided, however, that they may only exercise this option if the Company’s stock price is below $0.88 and trading volume is below 50,000 a day for a 90-day period. The accounting treatment requires that the Company records the fair value of the put option liability as of the inception date and to fair value the put option liability as of each subsequent reporting date.

The fair value of the Company’s put option liability from the THC Merger was estimated using the Binomial Pricing Model, which uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the stock options, and future dividends. Accordingly, the Company used three (3) comparables in the cannabis industry to determine a volatility range and elected to use our private placement stock price of $0.50 at issuance at December 31, 2017.

The fair value as of the date of issuance of the described put option liability was determined using the Binomial Pricing Model, with the following assumptions:

(1) dividend yield of  0%
(2) expected volatility of  150.00%
(3) risk-free interest rate of  1.53%
(4) expected life of  0.61 years 
(5) fair value of the Company’s common stock of $0.50 

F-17

The put option liability on the date of issuance of February 12, 2016 was determined to be $706,616 and was included in the purchase price of the THC Merger. While the 30-month period expired prior to December 31, 2018, the Company is currently in arbitration related to an attempted exercise of the put option, in which the exercise of the put option was upheld by the arbitrator. Based on the Company’s asserted defenses, the Company is appealing the award. However, the Company has recorded a stock subscription receivable and a put option liability for the $1,000,000 exercise amount at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 based on the pending award as discussed in Note 12. During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, there has not been any change in the fair value of the put option liability. The matter remains unresolved as of March 31, 2020 and both the stock subscription receivable and the put option liability for the $1,000,000 exercise remain outstanding.

Note 12 - Equity Method Investment

In March 2019, respectively.the Company acquired a 50% investment in PVI in exchange for 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred stock, which upon issuance were immediately converted into 20,000,000 shares of common stock. The investment has been accounted for under the equity method. In addition to having a direct investment, the Company also noted that common ownership with PVI represents an additional variable interest. However, it was determined that the Company does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact PVI’s economic performance, and therefore, the Company is not the primary beneficiary of PVI and PVI has not been consolidated under the variable interest model.

On January 17, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement with Jaime Ortega whereby in exchange for Mr. Ortega cancelling $1,062,000 of existing loans extended to the Company by Jaime Ortega, Neu-Ventures, Inc., and Sky Island, Inc., the Company transferred to Mr. Ortega 10,000 shares of capital stock of PVI. Subsequently, on February 11, 2021, the parties entered into amended agreement pursuant to which the original number of shares sold to Mr. Ortega was reduced from 10,000 shares of capital stock of PVI to 4,827 shares of capital stock of PVI. Accordingly, the Company currently owns 45,173 shares of capital stock of PVI. This amendment was entered into to correct the original agreement and properly reflect the value of the Company’s stock at the time of the initial agreement.

The investment was recorded at cost, which was determined to be $11,000,000 based on a value of $0.55 per share of common stock. A total of $5,500,000 of the balance at December 31, 2019 represents 10,000,000 shares of common stock were issued during fiscal year 2020. As of September 30, 2023, December 31, 2022, and September 30, 2022 the Company had 0%, 0%, and 45.17% ownership interest in exchangePVI, respectively.

Our total current liabilities increased to $3,925,392 as of September 30, 2023 from $1,414,372 as of December 31, 2022 due primarily to the increase in operating lease liability and amount due to affiliates for payment made to vendors on behalf of the Company.

Our working capital deficit on September 30,2023 was $3,920,682 as compared to a net loss of $162,294 for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2020, we had a working capital deficit of $3,486,509, $0$1,387,036 as of December 31, 2022. The increase in cash,working capital deficit was mainly attributed to the increase in operating lease liability and a $1,000,000 stock subscription receivable. Asamount due to affiliates for payment made to vendors on behalf of March 31, 2020, the Company’s current liabilities included $896,774 in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, $27,208 in accrued interest payable, $1,534,155 in related party notes payable, $19,838 in other notes payable, $784,000 in advances on agreements, $6,000 in stock subscriptions payable, $1,000,000 in put option payable, and $140,048 in contingent liabilities. We haveCompany.

The Company has funded our operations since inception primarily through the issuance of our equity securities in private placements to third parties, and/or promissory notes to related parties for cash. The cash was used primarily for operating activities, including cost of employees, management services, professional fees, consultantsconsultant fees, and travel. Our management expects that cash from operating activities will not provide sufficient cash to fund normal operations, support debt service, or undertake certain investments we anticipate prosecuting for our business proposition both in the near and intermediate terms. We will continue to rely on financing provided under notes from related and 3rd third-party party sources, as well as sale of shares of our common stock in private placements, to fund our expected cash requirements.

8

Since March 31, 2020, the Company has utilized cash of $248,630, all of which came in the form of related party on demand loans.

We intend to continue raising additional capital through related party loans. Additionally, in 2021 the Company is planning to apply to have its common stock quoted on the OTC Markets, at which point the Company plans to raise money through issuancesissuance of equity and debt and/or equity securities in private placements to accredited investors.for cash. There can be no assurance that these funds will be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all, or will be sufficient to enable us to fully complete our development activities or sustain operations. If we are unable to raise sufficient additional funds, we will have to develop and implement a plan to further extend payables, reduce overhead and operations, or scale back our current business plan until sufficient additional capital is raised to support further operations. There can be no assurance that such a plan will be successful.

Our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this filingquarterly report have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in such consolidated financial statements, we had an accumulated stockholders’ deficit of $13,695,411 as of March 31, 2020$24,562,374 and had a net loss of $276,750 and utilized net cash of $146,771 in operating activities$1,023,610 for the threenine months ended March 31, 2020.September 30, 2023. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, our independent registered public accounting firms in their audit reports to our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern was raised due to our net losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception and our expectation that these conditions may continue for the foreseeable future. In addition, we will require additional financing to fund future operations. Our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this filingquarterly report do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Based on our management’s estimates and expectation to continue to receive short-term debt funding from a related party on as needed basis, we believe that current funds on hand as of the date of issuance and proceeds of such loans will be sufficient for us to continue operations through March 31, 2022.beyond twelve months from the filing of this Form 10-Q. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to execute our business strategy and in our ability to raise additional funds. Management is currently seeking additional funds, primarily through the issuance of equity and/or debt securities for cash to operate our business; however, we can give no assurance that any future financing will be available or, if at all, and if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to us. Even if we can obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in the case of equity and/or convertible debt financing.

As discussed in Note 3 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements,nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Critical Accounting Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include the recoverability and useful lives of long-lived assets, assessment of legal accruals, the fair value of our stock, Incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) used for leases and the valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Leases

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, operating lease liabilities - current, and operating lease liabilities - noncurrent on the balance sheets. Finance leases are included in property and equipment, other current liabilities, and other long-term liabilities in our balance sheets.

ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Non-lease components such as CAM, variable expenses, and late fees were excluded from the calculation for ROU assets and lease liabilities. As most of March 31, 2020our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we generally use our incremental borrowing rate based on the estimated rate of interest for collateralized borrowing over a similar term of the lease payments at commencement date. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and December 31, 2019excludes lease incentives. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that have orwe will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease expense is reported under cost of sales in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in line with the Company’s main operation of procuring and leasing properties to licensed cannabis operators. For office premises that are reasonably likelynot used for subleasing, leases expense is reported under lease expense of operating expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

10

Sublease

Income for a sublessor operating lease is recognized as a single lease income item on a straight-line basis over the lease term and reflected in the appropriate income statement line item based on the lease asset’s function. For transactions where the company is considered the sublessor, revenue for operating leases is recognized on a monthly basis over the term of the lease. Sublessor revenue relates to haveoperating leases that the Company is subleasing. The Company recognizes sublease revenue on a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.gross basis.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information by this Item.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to reasonably ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Management based its controls on the report, “2013 Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or COSO. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

At the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, we conducted an evaluation (the “Evaluation”), under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon the foregoing, and to the same extent as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019,2022, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2020,September 30, 2023, the disclosure controls and procedures of our Company were not effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis because of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below.

8

Material Weaknesses and Corrective Actions

To the same extent as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019,2022, we identified certain deficiencies relating to our internal control over financial reporting that constitute a material weakness under standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”). The PCAOB defines a material weakness as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis.

11

The following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting continued to exist at March 31, 2020:as of September 30, 2023:

we doThe Company does not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”);
we do not haveDue to the size of the Company and available resources, there are limited personnel to assist with the accounting and financial reporting functions, which results in lack of sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to ourthe Company’s limited size and early stageearly-stage nature of operations, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible; however, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals; and
lack ofThe Company does not have an audit committee of our board of directors; and
insufficient monitoring and review controls over the financial reporting closing process, including the lack of individuals with current knowledge of U.S. GAAP.directors.

We believeTo remediate the Company’s internal control weaknesses, management intends to implement the following measures, as finances allow:

Developing and maintaining adequate written accounting policies and procedures, once additional accounting personnel or outside consultants are engaged.

The additional hiring is contingent upon our efforts to obtain additional funding and the results of our operations.

Management expects to secure funds before the end of the current fiscal year but provides no assurances that theseit will be able to do so.

Notwithstanding the material weaknesses primarily relate, in part, todiscussed above, our lack of sufficient staff with appropriate training in U.S. GAAPmanagement, including the Company’s CEO and SEC rules and regulations with respect to financial reporting functions, and the lack of robust accounting systems, as well as the lack of sufficient resources to hire such staff and implement these accounting systems.

Subject to raising sufficient additional capital, we plan to take a number of actions in the future to correct these material weaknesses including, but not limited to, establishing an audit committee of our board of directors comprised of at least two independent directors, adding experienced accounting and financial personnel and retaining third-party consultants to review our internal controls and recommend improvements. We will need to take additional measures to fully mitigate these issues, and the measures we have taken, and expect to take, to improve our internal controls may not be sufficient to (1) address the issues identified, (2) ensure that our internal controls are effective or (3) ensureCFO, concluded that the identifiedcondensed consolidated financial statements in this quarterly report fairly present, in all material weakness or other material weaknesses will not resultrespects, the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented, in a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements. In addition, other material weaknesses may be identified in the future. If we are unable to correct deficiencies in internal controls in a timely manner, our ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information accurately and within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC will be adversely affected. This failure could negatively affect the market price and trading liquidity of our common stock, cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, subject us to civil and criminal investigations and penalties, and generally materially and adversely impact our business and financial condition.conformity with GAAP.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2020September 30, 2023, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

CEO and CFO Certifications

Exhibit 31.1 to this Quarterly Report has the “Certifications” of our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. These Certifications are required in accordance with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (the “Section 302 Certifications”).
