ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Executive Overview
ForeverGreen Worldwide is a holding company that operates through its wholly owned subsidiary, ForeverGreen International, LLC. Our product philosophy is to develop, manufacture and market the best of science and nature through innovative formulations as we produce and manufacture a wide array of whole foods, nutritional supplements, personal care products and essential oils.
We believe that consuming healthy and natural whole foods and beverages is the basis of health and longevity. We provide health answers, not only through exclusive nutritional whole food beverages, but also by providing a broad product line of delicious whole foods that can be eaten for every meal, instead of the processed, fatty and preservative-laden synthetic meals prevalent in society today. Many competing companies provide capsules, powders, pills or tablets as nutritional supplements, but we believe these generally fail to provide an every-meal alternative to the processed and nutrient depleted foods found in the three main daily meals of most common consumers. We provide the every-meal answer with a variety of appetizing healthy food products that allow our Members and customers to eat healthy for every meal and snack throughout the day. In addition, we provide healthy personal care products as an alternative to the chemical-laden and synthetic products in the marketplace that may potentially negatively impact our health.
We remain committed to developing and providing high quality products that are innovative, healthy, efficacious, easy to use and easy to sell. Our unique products, along with a distinct and fresh corporate philosophy and message of physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health through service to community and others, attract consumers as well as Members who wish to own a home-based business selling our products and spreading our health message.
In July 2010 the Company introduced a new product called “Pure.” It is a two ounce concentrate of our unique marine phytoplankton and ionic minerals and it has little to no f lavor and can be added to any food, drink or ForeverGreen product, or it can be taken by itself.
ForeverGreen has four brand lines:
•
The LegaSea brand includes FrequenSea, SecreSea, ZMP 400, SecreSea, Azul, and now, A.I.M. Transfer Factor. All of these products contain marine phytoplankton as their key ingredient.
•
The TRUessence Apothecary and Essential Oil brand includes all of our essential oils, personal care and household products.
•
The Smart Food (formerly Brain Garden) brand includes Pulse-8, a heart healthy product that features L-arginine, now with marine phytoplankton, ElectriFire, a natural energy drink, Thunder, a chocolate meal replacement shake, SmartSaltz, and many other healthy chocolate or whole-food based products.
8
•
The O3World brand line includes our line of healthy weight management products.
These four brands are now presented to our Members and consumers in a simple business model that supports a simplistic, easily duplicated presentation and value proposal. The model is called the “ABCs of Your Business.”
“A” stands for our new A.I.M. Transfer Factor product that is high in Antioxidant, Immune and Metabolic support. “B” stands for BURN, our weight management system, and “C” is for Cardio, and features our heart-healthy Pulse-8 product. In simple terms, when a Member buys one of the A, B or C featured products in conjunction with Azul or FrequenSea, t he Member gets a price value discount and immediately qualifies to earn bonuses in the compensation plan.
An individual may join as a Member for the exclusive products offered by our company or for the wholesale prices that are available to Members purchasing product. An individual may join ForeverGreen and begin earning commissions rapidly with minimal investment. A Member receives a discount on their personal purchases or the purchases of their customers if they follow the value based purchase of FrequenSea or Azul with a product categorized as A, B or C, or other value package product combinations. This provides incentive to discuss successful products and programs with others. As a Member assists other individuals join the Member’s organization, the new Members generate commission payments to the upline Member through their product purchases.
During the first and second quarters of 2010 we relied on the ForeverGreen Money Tree Commission Plan for payment of commissions to members. A Member could earn retail profits and extra bonuses for a new enrollee’s first purchase and a Member’s small leg organization’s purchases. Bonuses were also paid from pools to Members based upon their rank in our plan. Commissions were paid out weekly under the ForeverGreen Money Tree Commission Plan.
In response to ForeverGreen’s distributor leadership and the current economic conditions, ForeverGreen introduced a new compensation plan: “The People’s Plan” which started on July 27, 2010. In anticipation of this new plan, on March 16, 2010, we introduced a companion commission structure, called the Cash Flow Miracle program, which worked seamlessly with the Money Tree Commission Plan as well as the People’s Plan. This prog ram allowed for a new or existing Member to participate in the Money Tree Compensation Plan, while at the same time earning accelerated bonuses on the front end by choosing the Cash Flow Miracle program and getting others to do the same. This program features an accelerated kick-start program of FrequenSea™. By choosing this optional program, new Members will receive a free ForeverGreen Membership. Once the Member makes an initial purchase of product, he or she will be able to receive bonuses for every two Members they enroll that also purchase product and participate in and maintain a monthly Autoship. The Cash Flow Miracle program allows for a Member to work their ForeverGreen business as normal, with an additional earning and health incentive that will continue paying as long as the Member promotes this program.
The People’s Plan is very simp le to learn, which in turn means it is simple to teach and duplicate with our current Members and new Members. Part of the simplicity of the new People’s Plan is it incorporates the People’s Pack, which includes our newly introduced product “Pure.” The purchase of this pack by our Members allows each Member to maximize earnings via retail market up, commissions and bonuses available as they and their downline organization also purchase and resale the People’s Pack or any other ForeverGreen product. Starting in August 2010 Members will be paid weekly via the CashFlow Miracle Plan and monthly via the People’s Plan.
ForeverGreen’s goal continues to be the improvement of people’s lives through “Health, Kindness and Opportunity.” In addition, our focus is to assist prospective Members in creating a home based business with home business training, mentoring and accountability t o promote residual income stream opportunities. We provide whole food drinks, organic chocolates, weight management products, convenient whole foods for meals and snacks, personal care products and essential oils to our domestic Members and customers with some of the above mentioned products also offered to select international markets as opportunities are created. We will seek relations with key vendors to continue developing cutting-edge products that are exclusive to our Members at a competitive price.

During the first quarter of 2010 ForeverGreen continued to be active in building sales throughout the world and also working to reduce costs. The Company had to face the challenge associated with the economic downturn that is affecting the lives of so many. Total revenues declined during the first and second quarters of 2010, but the Company has taken steps for necessary cost reductions to bring our business back toward profitability. The cost reductions include staff reductions, salary reductions, cutting back on unnecessary spending, negotiating with our vendors for more feasible repayment plans and continually looking for new and better, yet more cost effective, ways of doing business. Our management believes the efforts already made are beginning to establish the foundation for success for the months and years to come.
Our major challenge for the next twelve months will be to increase and sustain our field leadership and momentum along with systems capabilities and logistics centers around the world to keep up with the demand for our products and our business opportunity. &nbs p;Included in this challenge is the need to support our customers and keep Member satisfaction at a high level. Overcoming current business challenges will require a motivated and trained field leadership team and additional skilled corporate personnel, and manufacturing and shipping facilities. Management believes that the new simple to understand and teach People’s Plan with the Cash Flow Miracle program coupled with great product will be the catalyst to create enthusiasm and growth. Management will continue to surround themselves with key experienced personnel and vendors, while finding and motivating distributor leaders, as well as evaluating expenses related to operating activities, especially production and order fulfillment, in order to make adjustments to improve profitability.
We are expanding our markets and we anticipate expanding our domestic and international logistics centers as necessary. The rewards may include increased sales and diversified market incomes. International expansion is very expensive and key Members and vendors are required to experience rapid growth to become profitable in a foreign country.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the six month period ended June 30, 2010 (“2010 six month period), we were challenged by the continuing downturn in the global economy. At June 30, 2010, cash decreased to $28,743, but we recorded a net loss of $138,959 for the 2010 six month period ended and a net loss of $95,427 for the three month period ended June 30, 2010 (“2010 second quarter”). We also had negative working capital of $2,839,841 at June 30, 2010. Our net loss was minimized through effective management of our resources and cost reductions through financial and operational efficiencies. However, the losses and negative working capital raise doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. In this regard, management intends to continue to increase revenues and reduce expenses, improving profitability and the liquidity of ForeverGreen.
During the 2010 second quarter we relied on our revenues to fund operations along with a line of credit of $100,000 which is secured with the guarantee of two stockholders. We are currently looking forward to and investing in ForeverGreen’s Cash Flow Miracle program and the growth in our foreign markets. Management will continue to scrutinize expenses related to our operating activities and order fulfillment to determine appropriate actions to take to reduce these costs.
Management anticipates that any cash shortfalls will be covered by debt financing. We may pay these loans wit h cash, if available, or convert these loans into common stock. We may also issue private placements of stock to raise additional funding or to pay for services provided to us. Any private placement likely will rely upon exemptions from registration provided by federal and state securities laws. The purchasers and manner of issuance will be determined according to our financial needs and the available options. We also note that if we issue more shares of our common stock, our shareholders may experience dilution in the value per share of their common stock.
Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
ForeverGreen has two building leases for office, production warehouse space in Orem, Utah. We are currently on a
10
month to month lease for our office space at a monthly rent of $8,441. The production warehouse lease for $8,531 per month began September 1, 2006 and expires August 31, 2013 with provisions for an automatic five year extension. All leases have a provision for an annual increase of 3%. The buildings ForeverGreen leases are sufficiently large enough to accommodate all of our administrative, warehouse and production needs. ForeverGreen also leased office space in Singapore on a short-term lease ending April 2010 for approximately $4,000 per month. This lease was not renewed, but we intend to support Singapore through a third party logistics location.
Our total current liabilities at June 30, 2010 reflect the continued u se of a line of credit and bank overdraft, along with accounts payable and notes payable. We continue to negotiate with our vendors to find ways to meet our obligations while continuing to provide outstanding service to our distributors.

At June 30, 2010 our total assets decreased primarily because we have reduced our inventory levels to more appropriate levels. The Company is trying to use a “just-in-time” approach for inventory to improve our inventory management and cash utilization and turn inventory into cash.
Our total liabilities decreased at June 30, 2010 compared to December 31, 2009. The decrease in the total liabilities was the result of a decreased bank overdraft and decreased accounts payable.

Our source of revenue is from the sale of various food and other natural products and we recognize revenue upon shipment of a sales order. Sales are net of returns, which have historically been less than 0.2% of sales; however, in the second quarter of 2010 our returns increa sed to just under 1.3% of sales. Sales for the 2010 six month period decreased in comparison to the 2009 six month period. Sales also decreased in the 2010 second quarter as compared to the 2009 second quarter. Management anticipates that sales will increase over the long term as we increase our market size with the introduction of our business into foreign markets, specifically markets in Japan and South America.
Cost of sales consists primarily of the cost of procuring and packaging products, sales commissions paid to our Members, the cost of shipping product to Members, plus credit card sales processing fees. Cost of sales was approximately 67.01 % of sales for the 2010 six month period as compared to 70.83% for the 2009 six month period. The majority of this difference is due to improved costs on shipping and handling, product costs and a normalized commission plan.
Total operating expenses decreased significantly for the 2010 six month period compared to the 2009 six month period. The decrease in operating expenses is attributable primarily to reductions in general and administrative expense and in salaries and wages related to reductions in personnel and wage adjustments.
Total other expense increased for the 2010 three and six month periods compared to the 2009 three and six month periods as a result of increased interest expense on loans.
Despite our reduction of operating expenses, we recorded a net loss and net loss per share for the three month period and six month period ended June 30, 2010 and 2009.
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have 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 and would be considered material to investors.

Critical Accounting Estimates
We account for our investments in our subsidiary using the purchase method of accounting. The excess of the consideration paid for a subsidiary over the fair value of acquired tangi ble assets less the fair value of acquired liabilities is assigned to intangible assets and goodwill. We rely on an independent third party valuation to ascertain the amount to allocate to identifiable intangible assets, and the useful lives of those assets. We amortize identifiable intangible assets over their useful life unless that life is determined to be indefinite. The useful life of an intangible asset that is being amortized is evaluated each reporting period as to whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment on an annual basis. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by allocating fair value to all assets and liabilities acquired; the excess of the price paid over the amounts assigned to assets and liabilities acquired is the implied fair value of goodwill.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our filings under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. This information is accumulated to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report and concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth in “Internal Control - Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Management determined that there were no changes made in our internal control over financial reporting during the second quarter of our 2010 fiscal year that have materially affected, or are reasonably lik ely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Factors Affecting Future Performance
Actual costs and revenues could vary from the amounts we expect or budget, possibly materially, and those variations are likely to affect how much additional financing we will need for our operations.
Management plans to increase sales and decrease expenses where appropriate to improve profitability. Our future internal cash flows will be dependent on a number of factors , including:
•
The recovery of the United States and the global economy;
•
Our ability to encourage our Members to sponsor new Members and increase their own personal sales;
•
Our ability to promote our product lines with ou r Members and customers;
•
Our ability to develop successful new exclusive product lines;
13
•
Our ability to obtain essential oil raw mater ials for some of our products;
•
Effects of future regulatory changes in the area of direct marketing, if any;
•
Our ability to remain competitive in our domestic and international markets; and
•
Our ability to de crease shipping time and expense.
Our expansion into foreign markets exposes our business to risks related to those economies which may result in loss of revenues.
We have entered into agreements with Members and suppliers in foreign countries and we may establish similar arrangements in other countries in the future. As a result, our future revenues may be affected by the economies of these countries. Our international operations are subject to a number of risks, such as, longer payment cycles, unexpected changes in regulatory environments, import and export restrictions and tariffs, difficulties in staffing and managing international operations, potentially adverse recessionary environments and economies outside the United States, and possible political and economic instability.
Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could lead to loss of investor confidence in our reported financial information.
Pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, we are required to furnish a report by our management on our internal control over financial reporting. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, then our business and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading price of our stock could drop significantly. In our annual report for the year ended December 31, 2010 we will be required to provide an attestation from our independent registered public accounting firm as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. We canno t assure you as to our independent auditors’ conclusions at December 31, 2010 with respect to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. There is a risk that our independent auditors will not be able to conclude at that time that our internal controls over financial reporting are effective as required by Section 404 of the Act.
