CAUTIONARY NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q other than statements of historical fact, including statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, business strategy and plans, and objectives for future operations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based upon our current assumptions, expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect on our business. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words: “may,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “approximately,” “estimate,” “predict,” “project,” “potential,” “continue,” “ongoing,” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology, although the absence of these words does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking. This information may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from the future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements.

 

Factors that may cause or contribute actual results to differ from these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, for example:

 

 ·regulatory limitations on our products and services;

 

 ·our ability to complete and integrate announced acquisitions;

 

 ·general industry and economic conditions;

 

 ·our ability to access adequate capital upon terms and conditions that are acceptable to us;

 

 ·volatility in credit and market conditions;

 

 ·other risks and uncertainties related to the cannabis market and our business strategy.

 

We operate in very competitive and rapidly changing markets. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events and circumstances discussed in this Report may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements.

 

Stockholders and potential investors should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Although we believe that our plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by the forward-looking statements in this report are reasonable, we cannot assure stockholders and potential investors that these plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved.

 

These forward-looking statements represent our intentions, plans, expectations, assumptions and beliefs about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors. Many of those factors are outside of our control and could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by those forward-looking statements. Considering these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events described in the forward-looking statements might not occur or might occur to a different extent or at a different time than we have described. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning other matters addressed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

Except to the extent required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events, a change in events, conditions, circumstances or assumptions underlying such statements, or otherwise.

MEDICINE MAN TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Organization and Nature of Operations

 

Business DescriptionBusiness Activity

 

Medicine Man Technologies Inc. (the “Company”) incorporated in Nevada on March 20, 2014. On May 1, 2014, the Company entered into an exclusive technology license agreement with Medicine Man Denver, Inc., f/k/a Medicine Man Production Corporation, a Colorado corporation (“Medicine Man Denver”) whereby Medicine Man Denver granted it a license to use all of their proprietary processes they have developed, implemented and practiced at its cannabis facilities relating to the commercial growth, cultivation, marketing and distribution of medical marijuana and recreational marijuana pursuant to relevant state laws and the right to use and to license such information, including trade secrets, skills and experience (present and future) (the “Medicine Man Denver License Agreement”).

 

The Company commenced its business on May 1, 2014 and currently generatesgenerated revenues from consulting activities for prospective clients interested in entering the cannabis industry as well as sponsoring seminars offered to the cannabis industry and other business endeavors related to its core competencies.

 

In 2019, due to the changes in Colorado law permitting outside investment, the Company made a strategic decision to move toward direct plant-touching operations. Following that decision by executive leadership, the Company issued binding term sheets to several Colorado acquisition targets across the value chain. It believes that these targets are high quality, and the Company’s successful acquisition of these potential targets would allow it to become one of the largest vertically integrated seed-to-sale operators in the United States cannabis industry. These term sheets were announced in several Current Reports on Form 8-K during 2019. If successfully completed, the Company, post-transactions, will be able to offer retail, cultivation and extraction services. Management believes that the current company combined with the acquisition targets in its Colorado “roll-up” strategy will have the potential to create a vertically integrated company, which would further enjoy a competitive advantage operating in the Colorado market against incumbent operators. In addition to the contemplated business-integration benefits, management believes the sharing of best practices amongst the Company and the acquisition targets will allow for improved operations, revenue enhancements and increased profitability. Scale may also afford the ability to create an integrated back office system, providing a differentiated technology backbone to support the Company’s operations and enhance its overall management and operating capabilities. There can be no assurance that any of the proposed acquisitions will be consummated.

 

On April 20, 2020, the Company rebranded and conducts its business under the trade name, Schwazze. The corporate name of the Company continues to be Medicine Man Technologies, Inc. Effective April 21, 2020, the Company commenced trading under the OTC ticker symbol SHWZ.

 

On April 20, 2020 the Company completed its first acquisition of a Colorado plant touching entity, acquiring Mesa Organics, Ltd (“Mesa”) and its subsidiaries. These four entities include a Manufacturing Infusing Products (MIP) facility and four dispensaries. All are located in Southeastern Colorado. These acquisitions are included in our Products segment reporting.

1.Liquidity and Capital Resources:

 

During the quarters ending March 31,June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company primarily used revenues from its operation supplemented by cash to fund its operations.

 

Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and represent cash on hand, deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as of the purchase date. The Company had $9,075,427$5,418,317 and $11,853,627 classified as cash and cash equivalents as of March 31,June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, respectively. The Company anticipates it will need additional funds for the Star Buds acquisition and working capital and are exploring capital raising transactions in the form of equity and debt.

 

The Company maintains its cash balances with a high-credit-quality financial institution.institutions. At times, such cash may be more than the insured limit of $250,000. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 respectively, the cash balance was $5,168,317 and $486,101 over the insured limit. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts, and management believes the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk on its cash and cash equivalents.

 

 

 

 87 

 

To mitigate credit risk, the Company may purchase highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. At March 31, 2020, the Company had one United States Treasury Bill with a maturity date of April 7, 2020 and bearing interest at a rate of approximately 0.65%.

2.Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Management’s Representation of Interim Financial Statements

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted as allowed by such rules and regulations, and management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These consolidated financial statements include all of the adjustments, which in the opinion of management are necessary to a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2019 and 2018, as presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 30, 2020 with the SEC.

 

Basis of Presentation

These accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAPgenerally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SECSecurities and Exchange Commission for interim financial statements.All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported therein. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be based upon amounts that differ from these estimates.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior yearperiod amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current yearperiod presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on the Company’s net (loss) earnings and financial position.

Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, as follows:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

9

The Company’s financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, notesnote receivable, accounts payables and tenant deposits. The carrying values of these financial instruments approximate their fair value due to their short maturities. The carrying amount of the Company’s debt approximates fair value because the interest rates on these instruments approximate the interest rate on debt with similar terms available to us. The Company’s derivative liability was adjusted to fair market value at the end of the year,each reporting period, using Level 3 inputs.

 

The following is the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis at March 31,June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1), significant other observable inputs (Level 2), and significant unobservable inputs (Level 3):

2020

  

December 31,

2019

 
Level 1 – Marketable Securities Available-for-Sale – Recurring  517,514   406,774 

 

Marketable Securities at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

 

Certain assets are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Level 1 position consists of an investment in equity securities held in Canada House Wellness Group, Inc. (CHV), a publicly-traded company whose securities are actively quoted on the Toronto Stock Exchange. At both March 31,June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company owned 17,650,540 shares of CHV common stock. The closing share price of CHV’s common stock on March 31,June 30, 2020 was CAD$0.0350.040 per share.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts of cash and current assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these items. These fair value 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 these estimates. Available-for-sale securities are recorded at current market value as of the date of this report.

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business. Accounts receivable related to licensing and consulting revenues are recorded when aat the time the milestone is reached at pointresult in time resulting inthe funds being due forbeing achieved, services are delivered, services, and where payment is reasonably assured. Accounts receivable related to revenues on cultivation yields are recorded over time based upon harvested cannabis. ConsultingLicensing and licensingconsulting revenues are generally collected from 30 to 60 days after the invoice is sent.

 

The following table depicts the composition of our accounts receivable as of March 31,June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019:

Total accounts receivable $3,635,464  $3,449,943  $4,479,906  $3,449,943 

 

The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on management’s assessment of the collectability of trade receivables. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the amount of the allowance. The Company makes judgments about the creditworthiness of each customer based on ongoing credit evaluations and monitors current economic trends that might impact the level of credit losses in the future. If the financial condition of the customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make payments, a specific allowance will be required. At March 31,June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $115,870$41,796 and $70,885, respectively.

(CHV). The Company agreed to provide a lending facility to AMC in CAD$125,000 increments of up to CAD$500,000. The lending facility is for a term of 36 months and bears interest at a rate of 2%. As of March 31,June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the outstanding balance, including accrued interest, on the notes receivable with AMC totaled $242,959$292,101 and $241,711, respectively. The Company classified these loans as noncurrent notes receivable on its consolidated balance sheets as of March 31,June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

 

Other Assets (Current and Non-Current)

 

Other assets at March 31,June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were $707,706$463,879 and $529,416, respectively. As of March 31,June 30, 2020, this balance included $528,738$422,000 in prepaid expenses $37,089 in interest receivable and $141,879$41,879 in security deposits. At December 31, 2019, other assets included $480,881 in prepaid expenses, $21,085 in interest receivable and $27,450 in security deposits. Prepaid expenses were primarily comprised of insurance premiums, membership dues, conferences and seminars, and other general and administrative costs.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill represents the future economic benefit arising from other assets acquired that could not be individually identified and separately recognized. The goodwill arising from the Company’s acquisitions is attributable to the value of the potential expanded market opportunity with new customers. Intangible assets have either an identifiable or indefinite useful life. Intangible assets with identifiable useful lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their economic or legal life, whichever is shorter. The Company’s amortizable intangible assets consist of licensing agreements, product licenses and registrations, and intellectual property or trade secrets. Their estimated useful lives range from 10 to 15 years.

 

Goodwill and indefinite-lived assets are not amortized but are subject to annual impairment testing unless circumstances dictate more frequent assessments. The Company performs an annual impairment assessment for goodwill during the fourth quarter of each year and more frequently whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the fair value of the asset may be less than the carrying amount. Goodwill impairment testing is a two-step process performed at the reporting unit level. Step one compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying amount. The fair value of the reporting unit is determined by considering both the income approach and market approaches. The fair values calculated under the income approach and market approaches are weighted based on circumstances surrounding the reporting unit. Under the income approach, the Company determines fair value based on estimated future cash flows of the reporting unit, which are discounted to the present value using discount factors that consider the timing and risk of cash flows. For the discount rate, the Company relies on the capital asset pricing model approach, which includes an assessment of the risk-free interest rate, the rate of return from publicly traded stocks, the Company’s risk relative to the overall market, the Company’s size and industry and other Company-specific risks. Other significant assumptions used in the income approach include the terminal value, growth rates, future capital expenditures and changes in future working capital requirements. The market approaches use key multiples from guideline businesses that are comparable and are traded on a public market. If the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than its carrying amount, there is no impairment. If the reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, then the second step must be completed to measure the amount of impairment, if any. Step two calculates the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible net assets of the reporting unit from the fair value of the reporting unit as calculated in step one. In this step, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the reporting unit’s assets and liabilities in a hypothetical purchase price allocation as if the reporting unit had been acquired on that date. If the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess.

 

Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental in nature and requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including revenue growth rates, strategic plans, and future market conditions, among others. There can be no assurance that the Company’s estimates and assumptions made for purposes of the goodwill impairment testing will prove to be accurate predictions of the future. Changes in assumptions and estimates could cause the Company to perform an impairment test prior to scheduled annual impairment tests.

 

11

The Company performed its annual fair value assessment at December 31, 2019, on its subsidiaries with material goodwill and intangible asset amounts on their respective balance sheets and determined that no impairment exists. No additional factors or circumstances existed at June 30, 2020 that would indicate impairment.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances have indicated that an asset may not be recoverable. The long-lived asset is grouped with other assets at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities. If the sum of the projected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the assets, the assets are written down to the estimated fair value.

 

The Company evaluated the recoverability of its long-lived assets on December 31, 2019 on its subsidiaries with material amounts on their respective balance sheets and determined that no impairment exists. No additional factors or circumstances existed at June 30, 2020 that would indicate impairment.

Accounts Payable

 

Accounts payable at March 31,June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were $1,182,832$2,808,718 and $699,961, respectively and were comprised of trade payables for various purchases and services rendered during the ordinary course of business.

 

11

Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities

 

Accrued expenses and other liabilities at March 31,June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were $1,194,032$1,848,933 and $1,091,204, respectively. At March 31,June 30, 2020, this was comprised of customer deposits of $36,304,$81,441, accrued payroll of $953,269,$961,891, and operating expenses of $204,459.$805,601. At December 31, 2019, accrued expenses and other liabilities was comprised of customer deposits of $148,109, accrued payroll of $714,220, and operating expenses of $228,875.

 

Revenue Recognition and Related Allowances

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), on January 1, 2018. The Company recognizes revenues, upon delivery of goods to the customer – at which time the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied – at an amount that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods in accordance with the five step analysis outlined in Topic 606: (i) identify the contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) performance obligations are satisfied.

 

The Company’s revenue recognition policy is significant because the amount and timing of revenue is a key component of our results of operations. Certain criteria are required to be met in order to recognize revenue. If these criteria are not met, then the associated revenue is deferred until is the criteria are met. When consideration is received in advance of the delivery of goods or services, a contract liability is recorded. Revenue contracts are identified when accepted from customers and represent a single performance obligation to sell the Company’s products to a customer.

 

The Company has three main revenue streams: product sales; licensing and consulting fees; and other operating revenues from seminars, reimbursements and other miscellaneous sources.

 

Product sales are recorded at the time that control of the products is transferred to customers. In evaluating the timing of the transfer of control of products to customers, the Company considers several indicators, including significant risks and rewards of products, its right to payment, and the legal title of the products. Based on the assessment of control indicators, sales are generally recognized when products are delivered to customers.

 

Revenue from licensing and consulting services is recognized when the obligations to the client are fulfilled which is determined when milestones in the contract are achieved and target harvest yields are exceeded. At June 30, 2020, all milestones for contracts were satisfactorily reached and no further performance obligations were outstanding on contracts through the period.

 

Revenue from seminar fees is related to one-day seminars and is recognized as earned upon the completion of the seminar. The Company also recognizes expense reimbursement from clients as revenue for expenses incurred during certain jobs.

Advertising and Marketing Costs

 

Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred and were $129,267totaled $336,529 and $55,401 during$465,796 for the quarterthree and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2020, respectively, as compared to $73,088 and 2019, respectively.$128,489, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for share-based payments pursuant to ASC 718,Stock Compensation and, accordingly, the Company records compensation expense for share-based awards based upon an assessment of the grant date fair value for stock and restricted stock awards using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Stock compensation expense for stock options is recognized over the vesting period of the award or expensed immediately under ASC 718 and Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 96-18 when stock or options are awarded for previous or current service without further recourse.

  

Share-based expense paid to through direct stock grants is expensed as occurred. Since the Company’s stock has become publicly traded, the value is determined based on the number of shares issued and the trading value of the stock on the date of the transaction.

 

On June 20, 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07 which simplifies the accounting for share-based payments granted to nonemployees for goods and services. Under the ASU, most of the guidance on such payments to nonemployees would be aligned with the requirements for share-based payments granted to employees. Previously, share-based payment arrangements to nonemployees were accounted for under ASC 718, while nonemployee share-based payments issued for goods and services were accounted for under ASC 505-50. Before the amendment, the major difference for the Company (but not limited to) was the determination of measurement date, which generally is the date on which the measurement of equity classified share-based payments becomes fixed. Equity classified share-based payments for employees was fixed at the time of grant. Equity-classified nonemployee share-based payment awards are no longer measured at the earlier of the date which a commitment for performance by the counterparty is reached or the date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete. They are now measured at the grant date of the award, which is the same as share-based payments for employees. The Company adopted the requirements of the new rule as of January 1, 2019, the effective date of the new guidance.

 

The Company recognized $1,252,731$3,109,091 and $4,361,822 in expense for stock-based compensation from common stock options issued to employees during the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2020, and $934,221$2,225,406 and 2,980,406 in expenseexpenses for stock-based compensation from the issuance of common stock to employees, officers, directors and/or contractors during the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2019.

  

Income Taxes

 

ASC 740, Income Taxes requires the use of the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

Right of Use Assets and Lease Liabilities

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02,Leases (Topic 842). The standard requires lessees to recognize almost all leases on the balance sheet as a Right-of-Use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability and requires leases to be classified as either an operating or a finance type lease. The standard excludes leases of intangible assets or inventory. The standard became effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2019. The Company adopted ASC 842 using the modified retrospective approach, by applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. Results and disclosure requirements for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2019 are presented under ASC 842, while prior period amounts have not been adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historical accounting under ASC 840. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the standard, which also allowed the Company to carry forward historical lease classifications. The Company also elected the practical expedient related to treating lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all equipment leases as well as electing a policy exclusion permitting leases with an original lease term of less than one year to be excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities.

 

Under ASC 842, the Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. For this purpose, the Company considers only payments that are fixed and determinable at the time of commencement. As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company estimated the incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The ROU asset also includes any lease payments made prior to commencement and is recorded net of any lease incentives received. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options.

 

Operating leases are included in operating lease Right-of-Use assets and operating lease liabilities, current and non-current, on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

 

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share

 

The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share”. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. These potential dilutive shares include 3,062,0003,474,500 shares from vested stock options and 9,800,0009,987,500 stock purchase warrants. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

3.Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations except as noted below:

  

FASB ASU 2017-01, Clarifying the Definition of a Business (Topic 805) – In January 2017, the FASB issued 2017-01. The new guidance that changes the definition of a business to assist entities with evaluating when a set of transferred assets and activities is a business. The guidance requires an entity to evaluate if substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets; if so, the set of transferred assets and activities is not a business. The guidance also requires a business to include at least one substantive process and narrows the definition of outputs by more closely aligning it with how outputs are described in ASC 606. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and for interim periods within those years. Adoption of this ASU did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, cash flows and financial position.

 

14

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12,Income Taxes (Topic 740), which enhances and simplifies various aspects of the income tax accounting guidance, including requirements such as tax basis step-up in goodwill obtained in a transaction that is not a business combination, ownership changes in investments, and interim-period accounting for enacted changes in tax law. The amendment will be effective for public companies with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020; early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this amendment on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-02,Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326) and Leases (Topic 842) - Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 119 and Update to SEC Section on Effective Date Related to Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which amends the effective date of the original pronouncement for smaller reporting companies. ASU 2016-13 and its amendments will be effective for the Company for interim and annual periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company believes the adoption will modify the way the Company analyzes financial instruments, but it does not anticipate a material impact on results of operations. The Company is in the process of determining the effects adoption will have on its consolidated financial statements.

6.Derivative Liability

 

In 2019, the Company entered into certain employment agreements with key officers that contained contingent consideration provisions based upon the achievement of certain market condition milestones. The Company determined that each of these vesting conditions represented derivative instruments.

 

On January 8, 2019, the Company granted the right to receive 500,000 shares of restricted common stock to an officer and director, which will vest at such time that the Company’s stock price appreciates to $8.00 per share with defined minimum average daily trading volume thresholds.

 

On April 23, 2019, the Company granted the right to receive 1,000,000 shares of restricted common stock to an officer and director, which will vest at such time that the Company’s stock price appreciates to $8.00 per share with defined minimum average daily trading volume thresholds. On February 25, 2020, the director resigned from his remaining positions with the Company and forfeited his right to the contingent consideration. As a result, the Company recorded a gain of $1,462,636 as a component of other income (expense), net on its financial statements.

 

On June 11, 2019, the Company granted the right to receive 1,000,000 shares of restricted common stock to an officer, which will vest at such time that the Company’s stock price appreciates to $8.00 per share with defined minimum average daily trading volume thresholds.

 

The Company accounts for derivative instruments in accordance with the US GAAP accounting guidance under ASC 815,Derivatives and Hedging Activities. The Company estimated the fair value of these derivatives at the respective balance sheet dates using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based upon the following inputs: (i) stock price on the date of grant ranging between $1.32 - $3.75, (ii) the contractual term of the derivative instrument ranging between 2.25 - 3 years, (iii) a risk-free interest rate ranging between 1.56% - 2.57% and (iv) an expected volatility of the price of the underlying common stock ranging between 136% - 158%.

 

As of March 31,June 30, 2020, the fair value of these derivative liabilities is $1,118,783.$1,467,318. The change in the fair value of derivative liabilities for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2020 was $1,191,963,$(348,535), resulting in an aggregate unrealized loss on derivative liabilities.

The aggregate purchase price after working capital adjustments was $2,609,500 of cash and 2,554,750 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share. The Company accounted for the transaction utilizing purchase price accounting stating that the book value approximates the fair market value of the assets acquired. The purchase price accounting resulted in the Company valuing the investment as $5,141,537 of goodwill. The purchase price allocation is preliminary. The purchase price allocation will continue to be preliminary until a third-party valuation is finalized and the fair value and useful life of the assets acquired is determined. The amounts from the final valuation may significantly differ from the preliminary allocation.

The following table sets forth the changes in the carrying value of the Company’s goodwill at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

Balance, December 31, 2019  $12,304,306

Balance, June 30, 2020  $17,445,843 

10.Leases

 

Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases with a term greater than one year are recognized on the balance sheet at the time of lease commencement or modification of a right of use (“ROU”) operating lease asset and a lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. Lease costs are recognized in the income statement over the lease term on a straight-line basis. 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.

 

The Company's leases consist of real estate leases for office, commercial retail, and storage spaces. The Company elected to combine the lease and related non-lease components for its operating leases.

 

The Company’s operating leases include options to extend or terminate the lease, which are not included in the determination of the ROU asset or lease liability unless reasonably certain to be exercised. The Company's operating leases have remaining lease terms of less than twothree to five years. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

 

As the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, we used an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The discount rate used in the computations ranged betweencomputation is 6% - 12%.

Binding Term Sheets to Acquire Certain Businesses

 

Over the past three years, the Company has supported legislation in Colorado to allow licensed cannabis companies in Colorado to trade their securities, provided they are reporting companies under the Exchange Act, as amended. HB19-1090 titled, “Publicly Licensed Marijuana Companies” was signed into Colorado legislaturelaw on May 29, 2019 and went into effect on November 1, 2019. The bill repeals the provision that prohibits publicly traded corporations from holding a marijuana license in Colorado.

 

 

 

 1819 

 

 

Effective January 10, 2019, the Company entered into binding term sheets to acquire three cannabis and cannabis related companies, including the following:

 

 ·FutureVision 2020, LLC and FutureVision Ltd., Inc. dba Medicine Man Denver (in the aggregate, “Medicine Man Denver”), owners of several licensed dispensaries and a cultivation facility in the Denver, Colorado metro area. It is also a leading cultivator, retailer and one of the best-known brands in the cannabis sector, winning over a dozen industry awards. Medicine Man Denver operates out of a 35,000 square foot cultivation operation and has four popular retail locations across the Denver metropolitan area;area. This term sheet expires on August 31, 2020 and the Company communicated it was terminating the term sheet on Friday, August 14, 2020;

 

 ·MedPharm Holdings, a company that develops and manages intellectual property related to the manufacture and formulation of products containing cannabinoid extracts. Management believes that this acquisition will bring world-class processing and pharmaceutical-grade products to the company; and

 

 ·MX LLC, the holder of the license that allow it to be a manufacturer of marijuana infused products in the Denver metro area. It also has a research license that has been issued by the state of Colorado and the local jurisdiction approval is in process.

Overview

 

We were incorporated on March 20, 2014, in the State of Nevada. On May 1, 2014, we entered into an exclusive technology license agreementTechnology License Agreement with Medicine Man Denver, Inc., f/k/a Medicine Man Production Corporation, a Colorado corporation (“Medicine Man Denver”) whereby Medicine Man Denver granted us a license to use all of their proprietary processes they have developed, implemented and practiced at its cannabis facilities relating to the commercial growth, cultivation, marketing and distribution of medical marijuana and recreational marijuana pursuant to relevant state laws and the right to use and to license such information, including trade secrets, skills and experience (present and future) (the “Medicine Man Denver License Agreement”).

 

We commenced our business on May 1, 2014 and currently generate revenues derived from licensing agreements with cannabis related entities, as well as sponsoring seminars offered to the cannabis industry and other business endeavors related to our core competencies.

On April 20, 2020, the Company rebranded and conducts its business under the trade name, Schwazze. The corporate name As of the Company continues to be Medicine Man Technologies, Inc. Effective April 21, 2020, the Company commenced trading under the OTC ticker symbol SHWZ.date of this report we have or have had 45 fee generating clients in 14 different states. In addition, we operate a division that sells grower supplies and a plant nutrient product line.

 

Recent Developments

 

In 2019, due to the changes in Colorado law permitting outside investment, we made a strategic decision to move toward direct plant-touching operations. Following that decision by our executive leadership, we issued binding term sheets to several Colorado acquisition targets across the value chain. We believe that these targets are high quality, and our successful acquisition of these potential targets would allow us to become one of the largest vertically integrated seed-to-sale operators in the United States cannabis industry. These term sheets were announced in several Current Reports on Form 8-K during 2019. If successfully completed, the Company, post-transactions, will be able to offer retail, cultivation and extraction services. We believe that the current company combined with the acquisition targets in our Colorado “roll-up” strategy will have the potential to create a vertically integrated company, which would further enjoy a competitive advantage operating in the Colorado market against incumbent operators. In addition to the contemplated business-integration benefits, we believe the sharing of best practices amongst the Company and the acquisition targets will allow for improved operations, revenue enhancements and increased profitability. Scale may also afford the ability to create an integrated back office system, providing a differentiated technology backbone to support our operations and enhance our overall management and operating capabilities.There can be no assurance that any of the proposed acquisitions will be consummated.

 

On April 20, 2020 the company completed its first acquisition of a Colorado plant touching entity, acquiring Mesa Organics LTD and its subsidiaries. These four entities include a Manufacturing Infusing Products. (MIP) facility and four dispensaries. All are located in Southeastern Colorado. These acquisitions are included in our Products segment reporting.

The Company anticipates it will need additional funds for the Star Buds acquisition and working capital and are exploring capital raising transactions in the form of equity and debt. We believe we will likelyclose the Star Buds acquisitions in the last half of 2020. However, upon successfully completion of the Star Buds acquisitions, we believe we will generate positive cash flow from operations, and we expect that we will not need to raise additional capital to fundexecute the ongoing business operations. This is because the revenue generated from the fully integrated acquisitions onwill be sufficient to allow us to implement the current business operations.

However, if we do not generate positive cash flow, or we identify an acquisition which we have entered into binding terms sheets. Webelieve will significantly impact our business operations in a positive manner, or unforeseen developments occur, we may exploreneed to raise additional capital, raising transactions in the form ofeither debt, equity or both. At this time, we are unable to state how much additional capital we maywill need. As of the date of this Report we have no commitment from any investor or investment-banking firm to provide us with any funding. Further, no assurancefunding and there can be given that any future financingno assurances we will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company can obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations,such funding in the casefuture. We have, and will continue to, explore sources of debt financing or cause substantial dilution forto fund our stockholders, in case of equity financing.business operations and acquisition strategy. Failure to obtain this additional financing may have a material negative impact on our ability to generate profits on a regular basis in the future.

 

28

Upon successfully consummating our planned acquisitions and merging those operations into our own operations, we believe we will generate positive cash flow from our operations. If we are successful in achieving this objective, we do not believe we will need to raise additional capital to execute the ongoing business operations, as we anticipate that the revenue generated from the fully integrated acquisitions will be sufficient to allow us to implement our current business plan. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully complete any of the contemplated acquisitions. However, if we do not experience a positive impact on our operations from acquisitions we may consummate or if unforeseen developments occur that negatively impact our cash flow, we may need to raise additional capital to execute our business strategy.

 

Inflation

 

Although our operations are influenced by general economic conditions, we do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our results of operations during the three-month period ended March 31,June 30, 2020.

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We continually evaluate the accounting policies and estimates used to prepare the condensed financial statements. The estimates are based on historical experience and assumptions believed to be reasonable under current facts and circumstances. Actual amounts and results could differ from these estimates made by management. Certain accounting policies that require significant management estimates and are deemed critical to our results of operations or financial position are discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 in the Critical Accounting Policies section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1.Legal Proceedings.

 

On June 7, 2019, we filed a complaint against ACC Industries Inc. and Building Management Company B, L.L.C., in Clark County, Nevada, for, amongst other causes of action, breach of contract. On July 17, 2019, the parties stipulated to stay the case in favor of arbitration. On February 25, 2020 ACC filed a counterclaim alleging breach of contract, which the Company believes is without merit. Arbitration has been set for November 2, 2020. Medicine Man Technologies discovered new facts that lead it to believe that a related entity not previously named as a party to the arbitration should be brought in as a party to the arbitration. Based upon the new facts, MMT filed a motion to amend the complaint to add new claims and the related entity as a party. The hearing on the motion to amend is set for the week of August 10th after which MMT will file a motion to compel arbitration. The state court has been moving slowly such that the arbitration may get pushed back a few months.

 

On July 6, 2018, we filed a complaint in the Eight Judicial Court, Clark County, Nevada against Vegas Valley Growers (“VVG”). Within the complaint, the Company alleges the breach by VVG of the Technologies License Agreement dated April 27, 2017 as entered into between the parties and seeks general, special and punitive damages in the amount of $3,876,850. On August 28, 2018, VVG filed an Answer and Counterclaim against the Company. On August 2, 2019, a jury found in favor of the Company and awarded the Company damages totaling $2,773,321. In March 2020, VVG filed its opening appeal brief. The Company’s response brief is due on May 15, 2020. After VVG filed its opening brief in March 2020, MMT filed a Motion to Strike portions of the brief and record. Because a successful ruling on the motion may strike portions of the brief or require VVG to refile it, MMT asked for an extension on the filing its answering brief until the court renders its decision, which VVG did not oppose. MMT will have 30 days to file its answering brief once the court enters an order on the Motion to Strike or 30 days from when VVG files an amended opening brief and record.

 

On March 6, 2020, the Company’s former Chief Operating Officer, Joe Puglise, issued an arbitration demand against the Company claiming breach of contract. While the Company believes it has meritorious defenses against the claim, the ultimate resolution of the matter, which is expected to occur within one year, could result in a loss of up to $3.5 million. The parties agreed to two of the three arbitrators. The third arbitrator, to be the decided on by the agreed upon arbitrators, has not yet been identified.

 

Item 1A.Risk Factors

 

There have been no material changes inIn addition to the risk factors identified below, also refer to the risk factors applicable to us from those identified in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2019 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2020.

Risks Related to Our Industry

Businesses involved in the cannabis industry, and investments in such businesses, are subject to a variety of laws and regulations related to money laundering, financial recordkeeping and proceeds of crimes.

Investments in the U.S. cannabis industry are subject to a variety of laws and regulations that involve money laundering, financial recordkeeping and proceeds of crime, including the BSA, as amended by the Patriot Act, other anti-money laundering laws, and any related or similar rules, regulations or guidelines, issued, administered or enforced by governmental authorities in the United States. In February 2014, the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”) of the Treasury Department issued a memorandum (the “FinCEN Memo”) providing guidance to banks seeking to provide services to cannabis-related businesses. The FinCEN Memo outlines circumstances under which banks may provide services to cannabis-related businesses without risking prosecution for violation of U.S. federal money laundering laws. It refers to supplementary guidance that Deputy Attorney General Cole issued to U.S. federal prosecutors relating to the prosecution of U.S. money laundering offenses predicated on cannabis-related violations of the federal Controlled Substances Act and outlines extensive due diligence and reporting requirements, which most banks have viewed as onerous. The FinCEN Memo currently remains in place, but it is unclear at this time whether the current administration will continue to follow the guidelines of the FinCEN Memo. Such requirements could negatively affect our ability and the ability of our clients to establish and maintain banking connections.

30

We may be unable to protect our intellectual property rights.

Because the manufacture (growth), sale, possession and use of cannabis is illegal under federal law, cannabis-related businesses may have restricted intellectual property rights particularly with respect to obtaining trademarks and enforcing patents. If we are unable to register, or maintain, our trademarks or file for or enforce patents on any of our inventions, such an inability could materially affect our ability to protect our name and proprietary technologies. In addition, cannabis businesses may face court action by third parties under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (“RICO”). Our intellectual property rights could be impaired as a result of our cannabis-related business, and we could be named as a defendant in an action asserting a RICO violation.

We may be unable to seek the protection of the bankruptcy courts.

There is an argument that the federal bankruptcy courts cannot provide relief for parties who engage in cannabis or cannabis-related businesses. Recent bankruptcy rulings have denied bankruptcies for cannabis dispensaries upon the justification that businesses cannot violate federal law and then claim the benefits of federal bankruptcy for the same activity and upon the justification that courts cannot ask a bankruptcy trustee to take possession of, and distribute cannabis assets as such action would violate the federal Controlled Substances Act. Therefore, due to our cannabis-related business, we may not be able to seek the protection of the bankruptcy courts and this could materially affect our financial performance and/or our ability to obtain or maintain credit.

We are unable to deduct all of our business expenses.

Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code prohibits cannabis businesses from deducting their ordinary and necessary business expenses, forcing us to pay higher effective federal tax rates than similar companies in other industries. The effective tax rate on a cannabis business depends on how large its ratio of nondeductible expenses is to its total revenues. Therefore, our cannabis business may be less profitable than it could otherwise be.

Risks Related to our Common Stock

The market price for our Common Stock will be particularly volatile given our status as a relatively unknown company, with a limited operating history and lack of profits which could lead to wide fluctuations in our share price. You may be unable to sell your Common Stock at or above your purchase price, which may result in substantial losses to you.

While there is a market for our Common Stock, our price volatility in the future will be particularly volatile when compared to the shares of larger, more established companies that trade on a national securities exchange and have large public floats. The volatility in our share price will be attributable to a number of factors. First, our Common Stock will be, compared to the shares of such larger, more established companies, sporadically and thinly traded. As a consequence of this limited liquidity, the trading of relatively small quantities of shares by our stockholders may disproportionately influence the price of those shares in either direction. The price for our shares could decline precipitously in the event that a large number of shares of our Common Stock are sold on the market without commensurate demand. Secondly, we are a speculative or “risky” investment due to our limited operating history and lack of profits to date and uncertainty of future market acceptance for our potential products. As a consequence of this enhanced risk, more risk-adverse investors may, under the fear of losing all or most of their investment in the event of negative news or lack of progress, be more inclined to sell their shares on the market more quickly and at greater discounts than would be the case with the stock of a larger, more established company that trades on a national securities exchange and has a large public float. Many of these factors are beyond our control and may decrease the market price of our Common Stock, regardless of our operating performance. We cannot make any predictions or projections as to what the prevailing market price for our Common Stock will be at any time.

31

Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our Common Stock, which could depress the price of our Common Stock.

FINRA has adopted rules that require a broker-dealer to have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer before recommending an investment to a customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives, and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. Thus, the FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our Common Stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our shares of Common Stock, have an adverse effect on the market for our shares of Common Stock, and thereby depress the price per share of Common Stock.

Our future results may vary significantly which may adversely affect the price of our Common Stock.

It is possible that our quarterly revenues and operating results may vary significantly in the future and that period-to-period comparisons of our revenues and operating results are not necessarily meaningful indicators of the future. You should not rely on the results of one quarter as an indication of our future performance. It is also possible that in some future quarters, our revenues and operating results will fall below our expectations or the expectations of market analysts and investors. If we do not meet these expectations, the price of our Common Stock may decline significantly.
