TWO RIVERS WATER & FARMING COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

Unless the context requires otherwise, references in these notes to “Two Rivers,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” and similar terms are to Two Rivers Water & Farming Company and its subsidiaries.

Corporate Evolution

In 2014, we formed a new company, TR Capital Partners, LLC or TR Capital, which issued all its common units to Two Rivers Water & Farming Company, and our direct and indirect subsidiaries entered into a series of related transactions as the result of which assets and operations of those subsidiaries transferred to TR Capital. As a result of those transactions, TR Capital operates or controls all of the operations formerly conducted by those subsidiaries, and we classify TR Capital as Two Rivers Water & Farming Company for purposes of our financial statements.

Overview

In 2009, we began acquiring and developing irrigated farmland and associated water rights and infrastructure. As of September 30, 2018, we own 6,430 gross acres. Gross acres owned decreased from 6,538 gross acres at December 31, 2017 due to the sale of 108 acres.

We are focused on water assets we have acquired and will potentially acquire in the future. Since 2009, we have acquired strategic water assets and land in the Huerfano and Cucharas river basins in southeastern Colorado, thus our name Two Rivers Water Farming & Water Company. Our water assets are located in a basin that spans over 1,500 square miles and drops in elevation from over 14,000 feet down to the confluence of the Arkansas River, just east of Pueblo Colorado at 4,500 feet. We operate in a natural, gravity fed water alluvial. This basin is the last undeveloped basin along the front range of Colorado. As our first water-focused project, we plan to fully develop this basin to properly manage the water contained therein and serve the community while providing returns to our investors.

Since October 2016 we have refocused on monetizing our assets. Monetization occurs in two different ways: sell or additionally invest. We have determined to sell assets that we have determined will not yield significant future returns to our shareholders and invest strategically in the assets that will. We will take net proceeds, if any, from these sales and continue to invest in our water and water infrastructure.

In May 2014, we formed GrowCo, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Two Rivers through the issuance of 20,000,000 shares of common stock. On August 1, 2014, we announced that we were placing 10,000,000 GrowCo shares in a trust to be distributed to Two Rivers’ common shareholders. As of March 31, 2018, the Company owned 10,000,000 GrowCo shares out of reported shares outstanding of 34,343,000, or 29.12%. The reported outstanding shares were provided to the Company by GrowCo’s management.

The Company requested from GrowCo management financial information to complete the Company’s June 30, 2018 financials. On July 17, 2018 the Company was notified by GrowCo’s management that GrowCo will not provide the requested financial information. This event triggered the Company’s management to re-examine the consolidation and VIE (variable interest entity) rules under US GAAP. Management concluded that as of April 1, 2018 the consolidation of GrowCo and GrowCo’s related entities is no longer required under US GAAP.

Water Redevelopment Company

We formed Water Redevelopment Company (“Water Redev”) in February 2017 for the purpose of separating our water assets from the rest of our business and to enable additional raising of capital for the purpose of investing in our water assets. Water Redevelopment Company is a subsidiary of Two Rivers and focuses on development and redevelopment of infrastructure for water management and delivery. Water is one of the most basic, core assets. Water Redevelopment’s first area of focus is in the Huerfano-Cucharas river basin in southeastern Colorado.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Two Rivers along with its farming, water and greenhouse operations. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Under guidance in ASC 810-10-05-8 “Consolidation of VIEs” (Variable Interest Entities) the Company’s management has determined that GrowCo and its related entities, GCP1, GCP Super Units, GCP2, should no longer be consolidated for financial statement purposes. The Company now reports its ownership position under the equity method of accounting. Before the three months ended June 30, 2018, GrowCo and its related entities were consolidated.

Deconsolidation of GrowCo, Inc.

Even though the Company no longer consolidates GrowCo and GrowCo’s related entities into the Company’s financials, Management has determined that the Company is a guarantor of GrowCo’s $4M Secured Notes. The Company did not sign these notes as a guarantor but has provided collateral owned by the Company with a recent appraised value of $2,359,000. GCP1 managers have been in contact with Blue Green, the holder of $2,115,000 of the notes to discuss an arrangement whereby GCP1 might use leasing cash flow to pay the secured note holders. No agreement has been reached, but there have been discussions on a general structure that 50% of lease revenue (after direct costs) might be used to pay interest and retire the principal of these notes. Since Two Rivers’ Management desires to present a conservative representation of its financial information it has determined to set the probability of collection against its collateral at 100% of the recent appraised value. The Company has recorded a contingent liability of $2,359,000 and offset this amount as an increase in the Company’s investment in GCP1 (ASC 460-10-55-23c).

Additionally, US GAAP (ASC 810-10-40) provides guidance on “Derecognition” of a previously consolidated entity or entities. Under this guidance, Two Rivers shall account for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary or derecognition of a group of assets specified in ASC 810-10-40-3A by recognizing a gain or loss in net income attributable to the parent, measured as the difference between:

a. The aggregate of all of the following:

1. The fair value of any consideration received. In Two Rivers case, no consideration was received.

2. The fair value of any retained noncontrolling investment in the former subsidiary or group of assets at the date the subsidiary is deconsolidated, or the group of assets is derecognized. In Two Rivers case, there were no retained noncontrolling investments in GrowCo or its related entities.

3. The carrying amount of any noncontrolling interest in the former subsidiary (including any accumulated other comprehensive income attributable to the noncontrolling interest) at the date the subsidiary is deconsolidated. In Two Rivers case, the total amount of the noncontrolling interest to derecognized is as follows as of April 1, 2018:

Entity	April 1, 2018
GrowCo		(1,230,000	)
GrowCo Partners 1, LLC		3,621,000
GCP Super Units, LLC		5,016,000
TR Cap 20150630 Distribution, LLC		497,000
TR Cap 20150930 Distribution, LLC		460,000
TR Cap 20151231 Distribution, LLC		495,000
Total	$	8,859,000

b. The carrying amount of the former subsidiary’s assets and liabilities or the carrying amount of the group of assets.

9

With the above guidance the Company determined that the effect of the deconsolidation of GrowCo produced a gain of $12,773,000 which is a non cash adjustment. This amount consists of elimination of the noncontrolling interest in GrowCo of $8,859,000 and $3,914,000 from the removal of GrowCo’s assets and liabilities. The $3,914,000 represented the amount of GrowCo liabilities over GrowCo’s assets.

Investment in GrowCo Partners 1, LLC (GCP1)

Due to the deconsolidation of GrowCo and its related entities, which include GCP1, the Company’s investment in GCP1 is now accounted for under the equity method.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Item 210 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation for the periods presented have been included as required by Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2018. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 9, 2018.

Non-controlling Interest

Below is the detail of non-controlling interest shown on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Entity	Sept 30 2018		Dec 31 2017
TR Capital	$	20,482,000	$	20,482,000
HCIC		1,386,000		1,388,000
F-1		29,000		29,000

TR Cap 20150930 Distribution, LLC		-		460,000
TR Cap 20151231 Distribution, LLC		-		495,000
Total	$	22,511,000	$	31,752,000

In 2015, $152,000 of TR Capital Preferred Membership units were exchanged, pursuant to a pre-existing exchange agreement, for Two Rivers’ common shares and $60,000 of Two Rivers Farms F-2, Inc. (“F-2”) membership units converted into Two Rivers’ common shares.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

10

Since GrowCo management did not provide its financial information, for the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company estimated its share of the GrowCo loss as accounted for under the equity method.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of reporting cash flows, Two Rivers considers cash and cash equivalents to include highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less. Those are readily convertible into cash and not subject to significant risk from fluctuations in interest rates. The recorded amounts for cash equivalents approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed principally on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of each type of asset, which ranges from three to twenty-seven and a half years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred; improvements and betterments are capitalized. Upon retirement or disposition, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are credited or charged to income.

Below is a summary of property and equipment:

Asset Type	Life in Years		Sept 30, 2018			Dec 31, 2017
Office equipment, furniture		5 – 7	$	12,000		$	12,000
Computers		3		46,000			46,000
Vehicles		5		25,000			92,000
Farm equipment		7 – 10		147,000			244,000
Buildings		27.5		10,000			10,000
Website		3		7,000			7,000
Subtotal				247,000			411,000
Less: Accumulated depreciation				(222,000	)		(251,000	)
Net book value			$	25,000		$	160,000

Land

Land acquired for farming or water rights is recorded at cost. Expenditures for leveling the land are added to the cost of the land. Irrigation is not capitalized in the cost of Land (Property and Equipment above). Land is not depreciated. However, once per year, Management will assess the value of land held, and in their opinion, if the land has become impaired, Management will establish an allowance against the land.

Water Rights and Infrastructure

Management periodically evaluates the carrying value of its assets including water rights and infrastructure, and if the carrying value is in excess of fair market value, the Company will establish an impairment allowance. Currently, there is a $6,930,000 impairment reserve on the Company’s land and water shares. No amortization or depreciation is taken on the water rights.

Intangibles

Two Rivers recognizes the estimated fair value of water rights acquired by the Company’s purchase of stock in Huerfano Cucharas Irrigation Company (“HCIC”) and Orlando Reservoir No. 2 Company, LLC (“Orlando”). These intangible assets will not be amortized because they have an indefinite remaining useful life based on many factors and considerations, including the historical upward valuation of water rights within Colorado.

11

Revenue Recognition

Member Assessments

Once per year the HCIC board estimates HCIC’s expenses, less anticipated water revenues, and establishes an annual assessment per ownership share. One-half of the member assessment is recorded in the first quarter of the calendar year and the other one-half of the member assessment is recorded in the third quarter of the calendar year. Assessments paid by Two Rivers Water Company to HCIC are eliminated in consolidation of the condensed consolidated financial statements. The assessments that are not eliminated are included in Other revenue.

HCIC does not reserve against any unpaid assessments. Assessments due, but unpaid, are secured by the member’s ownership of HCIC. The value of this ownership is significantly greater than the annual assessments.

Stock Based Compensation

Beginning January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 718 and accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718. Under the fair value recognition provisions of this standard, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which generally is the vesting period. The Company elected the modified-prospective method, under which prior periods are not revised for comparative purposes. The valuation provisions of ASC 718 apply to new grants and to grants that were outstanding as of the effective date and are subsequently modified.

Dam Demolition Expense

During the three months ended September 30, 2018 a court date has been set for a hearing of the State of Colorado’s legal action to compel the Company to demolish Cucharas #5 reservoir. A contingent liability, with an offsetting expense of $1,800,000 has been recognized.

Net Income (Loss) per Share

Basic net (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributed to Two Rivers available to common shareholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income for the period by the weighted average number of common and potential common shares outstanding during the period.

The dilutive effect of the outstanding 2,425,000 options, and 17,536,958 warrants at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, have an exercise price in excess of the Company’s closing price of $0.23/share as of September 28, 2018; therefore these shares have not been included in the determination of diluted earnings per share since, under ASC 260 they would anti-dilutive. If all convertible debt is converted into the Company’s common shares, there would be an additional 3,630,290 shares issued, using the Company’s closing price of $0.23/share as of September 28, 2018. Therefore, these additional shares are added to the basic shares for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220)”. This ASU deals with the reclassification of certain tax effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. We do not believe that there will be any significant financial impact due to prior taxable losses and our net operating loss carry forward.

In July 2017, FASB issued ASU “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)”: (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features, (Part II) Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception. Management believes that Topics 260 and 480 pertains to the Company and the impact will be immaterial.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows”. The new guidance will require that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents is required to be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The new guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and early adoption is permitted. The amendment should be adopted retrospectively. The Company plans to adopt this new guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Compensation Accounting”, which requires that excess tax benefits are recorded on the income statement as opposed to additional paid-in-capital and treated as an operating activity on the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-09 also allows companies to make an accounting policy election to either estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest (current U.S. GAAP) or account for forfeitures when they occur. ASU 2016-09 further requires cash paid by an employer when directly withholding shares for tax-withholding purposes to be classified as a financing activity on the statement of cash flows. The ASU 2016-09 was subsequently updated with ASU 2017-09, issued in May 2017. These standards will become effective for us in fiscal 2018. We do not believe that there will be any significant financial impact due to prior taxable losses and our net operating loss carry forward.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases”. The new standard establishes a right-of-use (ROU) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 which includes interim periods within those fiscal years. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The adoption of this ASU is expected to result in all operating leases being capitalized in the Company’s financial statements. Due to the GrowCo leases, management believes that this ASU will have an impact on its financials and is in the process of analyzing its impact.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 – INVESTMENTS AND LONG-LIVED ASSETS

Land

Upon purchasing land, the value is recorded at the purchase price or fair value, whichever is more appropriate. Costs incurred to prepare the land for the intended purpose are also capitalized in the recorded cost of the land. No amortization or depreciation is taken on land. However, the land is reviewed by management at least once per year to ascertain if a further analysis is necessary for any potential impairments.

Water Rights and Infrastructure

The Company has acquired both direct flow water rights and water storage rights. It has obtained water rights through the purchase of shares in a mutual ditch company, which it accomplished through its purchase of shares in HCIC, or through the purchase of an entity holding water rights, which it effected through its purchase of a membership interest of Orlando. The Company may also acquire water rights through outright purchase. In all cases, such rights are recognized under decrees of the Colorado water court and administered under the jurisdiction of the Office of the State Engineer.

Subsequent to purchase, management periodically evaluates the carrying value of its assets, and if the carrying value is in excess of fair market value, the Company will establish an impairment allowance. Currently, there are $6,930,000 of impairments on the Company’s land and water shares. No amortization or depreciation is taken on the water rights.

Gain on Disposal of Assets

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we sold sub-divided, unimproved lots of land located in El Paso County Colorado and recognized a gain of $156,000. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 there was also a $42,000 loss from the sale of equipment.

14

The Company elected to adopt early FASB ASU 2016-03, whereby debt issuance costs are recorded as a deduction from the carrying value of liability, and not recorded as an asset. The debt issuance costs are amortized using the effective interest method which, in this situation, equals a straight line method.

HCIC Carry Back Loan

Payments to all of the HCIC note holders are behind schedule. As of September 30, 2018, the Company is in technical default on $6,301,000 of the HCIC carry back notes due to non-payment of principal and interest. Consequently, the entire amount of the notes has been classified as current.

GrowCo $4M Notes Guaranty

During the period ended December 31, 2015, GrowCo issued $4,000,000 in secured promissory notes to 17 individual investors. The notes have a security interest in the land, water and improvements on the 40 acres where GrowCo Partners 1 has its greenhouse and associated warehouse. The notes pay 22.5% in annual interest, with interested paid monthly, and are due April 1, 2020. GrowCo cannot prepay the notes; however, noteholders have the right to call the notes at the first anniversary, or thereafter, of each note with a 60-day notice to the Company. Due to the past due interest owed to the secured $4M Note holders, these notes are in technical default.

On January 19, 2018 Blue & Green, LLC (“Blue Green”) filed a complaint against GrowCo claiming a default on payments by GrowCo to Blue Green under the terms of the $4 million GrowCo $2,115,000 promissory note held by Blue Green. The complaint requested immediate payment of the note, back due interest in excess of $300,000, and attorney fees.

Even though the Company no longer consolidates GrowCo and GrowCo’s related entities into the Company’s financials (see above Note 2 – Principals of Consolidation), under ASC 460-10-05, Management has determined that the Company is a guarantor of the $4M Secured Notes. The Company did not sign these notes as a guarantor but has provided collateral owned by the Company with a recent appraised value of $2,359,000. GCP1 managers have been in contact with Blue Green, the holder of $2,115,000 of the notes to discuss an arrangement whereby GCP1 might use leasing cash flow to pay the secured note holders. No agreement has been reached, but there have been discussions on a general structure that 50% of lease revenue (after direct costs) might be used to pay interest and retire the principal of these notes. Since Two Rivers’ Management desires to present a conservative representation of its financial information it has determined to set the probability of collection against its collateral at 100% of the recent appraised value. The Company has recorded a contingent liability of $2,359,000 and offset this amount as an increase in the Company’s investment in GCP1 (ASC 460-10-55-23c).

Powderhorn Note

The Company has decided to pay Powderhorn’s August and September 2018 payments by issuance of 800,000 and 646,154 shares and not in cash. Subsequent to September 30, 2018, 800,000 shares have been issued and the 646,154 shares have yet to be issued.

OID Black Mountain

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company issued 874,250 common shares for a principal reduction of $100,000. It was originally due on October 26, 2017 but was extended to July 31, 2018. It has been further extended to September 30, 2018. In October 2018, the Company reached an agreement with Black Mountain to fully pay Black Mountain amount due of $138,370 with the issuance of 900,000 common shares of the Company’s stock.

Investors Fiduciary LLC

On July 23, 2018 the Company entered into a convertible promissory note with Investors Fiduciary LLC for a bridge loan up to $500,000. As of September 30, 2018, $400,000 has been drawn on this note. The note carries interest at 20% per annum and is secured by the Company’s unencumbered 2,456.5 shares in the Huerfano Cucharas Irrigation Company. The holder has a right to convert principal and any accrued interest into the Company’s common shares at a rate of $0.14/share. On July 23, 2018, the Company’s common stock closed at $0.117/share. Therefore, the Company did not record a beneficial conversion feature.

NOTE 5 –Information on Business Segments

We organize our business segments based on the nature of the products and services offered. We focus on the Water and Greenhouse business with Two Rivers Water & Farming Company as the Parent company. Therefore, we report our segments by these lines of businesses: Greenhouse and Water. Greenhouse contains our construction and leasing of state of the art greenhouses to cannabis growers. Water contains our Water Business (HCIC and Orlando). Our Parent category is not a separate reportable operating segment. Segment allocations may differ from those on the face of the income statement. The Farming Business has been discontinued and therefore the operating losses and assets have been summarized. Effective April 1, 2018 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company stopped consolidating GrowCo, the Greenhouse segment.

In the following tables of financial data, the total of the operating results of these business segments is reconciled, as appropriate, to the corresponding consolidated amount. There are some corporate expenses that were not allocated to the business segments, and these expenses are contained in the “Total Operating Expenses” under Parent.

Operating results for each of the segments of the Company are as follows (in thousands):

	Nine Months Ended Sept 30, 2018														Nine Months Ended Sept 30, 2017

NOTE 7 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Suncanna Litigation

Since 2016, the Suncanna lease arrangement was the subject of administrative and judicial proceedings:

● On April 14, 2016 we were notified that Suncanna LLC had received a notice of suspension from the Marijuana Enforcement Division of the Colorado Department of Revenue.  This suspension remains in place until a hearing.

● This caused Suncanna to be in violation of its lease with GCP1.  On April 25, 2016, GCP1 terminated Suncanna’s lease and began an eviction process against Suncanna.  Due to the eviction process, during the three months ended March 31, 2016, we wrote off $743,000 in Lease Revenues – Related Party, wrote off $587,000 in advances to Suncanna, and did not recognize any Lease Revenues – Related Party.

● On July 22, 2016 GCP1 received a Writ of Restitution from the Pueblo County Colorado District Court ordering Suncanna to vacate the greenhouse by September 6, 2016.  

● On August 31, 2016 a lawsuit was filed by Aaron Van Wingerden, owner of Suncanna, in Pueblo County Colorado District Court against GrowCo, GrowCo Business Development, LLC, GCP1, GrowCo Funding, LLC., TR Capital, Two Rivers and certain current and former employees, and associates.  We believe that the suit has no merit and will have no material impact on our financial condition.

● On September 6, 2016, in accordance with the Writ of Restitution, Suncanna vacated the greenhouse and GCP1 took possession and began re-conditioning its greenhouse for a new tenant, who began growing operations in the fourth quarter of 2016.

● On October 27, 2016, in a contempt of court hearing, a Pueblo County Colorado District Court judge ruled in favor of plaintiff Aaron Van Wingerden and against GCP1 in a matter regarding the prevention of Suncanna’s access to GCP1’s greenhouse prior to Suncanna vacating the premises on September 6, 2016.  We believe that this ruling was in error and are appealing this decision.

The Company, the other defendants and the plaintiffs have settled this case.

Prior board of directors’ litigation

On August 8, 2017, a summons was issued in the Arapahoe County District Court on behalf of former board members Dennis Channer, Rockey Wells and John Stroh demanding the Company pay $139,000 in attorneys’ fees owed to Ryley Carlock & Applewhite (“RCA”) for services rendered to the former board members at their behest while members of the board. The $139,000 is included in our accounts payable on the balance sheet. An agreement has been reached with RCA to pay amounts owed over time.

17

DFP litigation

On October 18, 2017, at the Company filed a lawsuit against former employees of the its DFP farming operation for alleged theft. We are in the process of gathering evidence of the theft and setting a court hearing date. A former employee of DFP has filed a counter claim against the Company, which amount is immaterial. Management believes that claims against former employees are in excess of any counter claims.

State of Colorado litigation

The Company, the State of Colorado (Office of the State Engineer and the local Division Engineer), and neighboring water rights holders have been involved in litigation in the Colorado Division 2 Water Court concerning water rights and claims by the State concerning an existing dam in Huerfano County, Colorado, and a demand by the State to breach the dam structure. (Two Rivers Water and Farming Co. vs. Welton Land and Water Co., (Pueblo Water Court). As part of the litigation, Two Rivers sought to have certain water rights demands by the neighboring water rights holders deemed wasteful. The Company has withdrawn this suit with prejudice, and the water rights holders have sued for their legal fees.

In the quarter ending March 31, 2016, Two Rivers entered into a stipulation agreement with the State, settling the State’s claims at that time. Under the stipulation agreement, Two Rivers agreed to take the existing dam structure down to the sediment level by March 31, 2018. Two Rivers has been able to empty all the water in the Dam but was not able to meet the requirements of the agreement by March 31, 2018 due to lack of capital. On April 3, 2018, the State filed a motion for the issuance of a contempt of court citation against the Company, its directors, former director and CEO John McKowen, and certain other individuals for breach of the agreement seeking sanctions, imposition of a civil penalty of $100,000 and payment of legal fees. The Company and its directors are contesting the sanctions sought in the contempt motion, based in part upon those sanctions being unnecessary and unduly punitive. Preliminary hearings for the defendants were held on May 10 and June 8, 2018. At the May 10, 2018 hearing it was determined that the State of Colorado could proceed with its action. At the June 8 hearing, a trial date of December 17, 2018 was set by the Court that was subsequently postponed to October 2019.

The Company intends to continue its efforts to seek funding so that it can comply with the agreement. If successful in obtaining financing, the Company intends to work with the Colorado State Engineer to take down the existing dam. Once this work is completed, the Company will seek additional funding to construct a new dam close to the prior dam structure. The Company’s engineering firm estimate the cost to breach the dam structure to be between $1.8 to $2.2 million. As of September 30, 2018 we have accrued a liability and other expense of $1,800,000 for this work.

NOTE 8 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Dionisio Farms & Produce

During the fourth quarter of 2016, we decided to discontinue operations of our Dionisio Farms and Produce (DFP) subsidiary. We decided to sell all assets associated with this business due to the sustained losses incurred.

The DFP loss from discontinued operations presented in the statements of operations consist of the following for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017:

	Sept 30, 2018		Sept 30, 2017
Revenues	$	-	$	-
Cost of goods sold		-		-
General and administrative expenses		-		508,000
Depreciation and amortization		-		1,000
Interest		-		41,000
Other (loss on disposal of assets and intangibles)		-		624,000
Total	$	-	$	(1,174,000	)

18

On March 3, 2017, the Company’s land and water assets associated with farming operations were auctioned off. Gross proceeds from the auction were $1,740,000 with net proceeds of $1,611,000. Proceeds were used to pay off secured debt first with the residual proceeds used to pay unsecured debt.

GrowCo and related entities

Effective April 1, 2018, the Company is no longer consolidating the financials of GrowCo and its related entities. The effect of deconsolidation created a one-time non-cash gain of $12,773,000 and a recognition of a loss from GrowCo discontinued operations of $810,000; broken down as follows:

	Sept 30, 2018			Sept 30, 2017
Revenues	$	52,000		$	-
General and administrative expenses		(89,000	)		-
Depreciation and amortization		(61,000	)		-
Interest		(1,092,000	)		-
Non-controlling interest		380,000			-
Total	$	(810,000	)	$	-

NOTE 9 – CONTINGENT LIABILITY

Even though the Company no longer consolidates GrowCo and GrowCo’s related entities into the Company’s financials (see above Note 2 – Principals of Consolidation), under ASC 460-10-05, management has determined that the Company is a guarantor of the $4M Secured Notes. The Company did not sign these notes as a guarantor but has provided collateral owned by the Company with a recent appraised value of $2,359,000. GCP1 managers have been in contact with Blue Green, the holder of $2,115,000 of the notes to discuss an arrangement whereby GCP1 might use leasing cash flow to pay these note holders. No agreement has been reached, but there have been discussions on a general structure that 50% of lease revenue (after direct costs) might be used to pay interest and retire the principal of these note holders. Since Two Rivers’ management desires to present a conservative representation of its financial information it has determined to set the probability of collection against its collateral at 100% of the recent appraised value. Therefore, the Company has recorded a contingent liability of $2,359,000 and offset this amount as an increase in the Company’s investment in GCP1 (ASC 460-10-55-23c).

NOTE 10 – GOING CONCERN

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has not generated significant revenues and has incurred net losses (including significant non-cash expenses) of $12,924,000 during the year ended December 31, 2017 and a profit of 6,046,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, which is largely due to a non-cash gain on the consolidation of GrowCo of $12,773,000. Actual cash consumed from our operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $824,000. At September 30, 2018, the Company had a working capital deficit of $19,473,000 and an accumulated deficit of approximately $91,122,000, respectively. The HCIC seller carry back debt are in technical default.

These factors raise doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability or classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The following paragraphs describe management’s plans to mitigate.

19

For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we have collected $1,426,000 in additional debt.

In addition, the Company is in different stages of discussion with parties interested in providing capital. This includes on-going discussions with a strategic partner and seeking out new debt funding to consolidate our existing debt and provide new capital to expand our water redevelopment and expansion efforts.

We continue to reduce our general and administrative and cash required for our operations.

NOTE 11 – RELATED PARTY

There were no related party transactions during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

NOTE 12 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Pursuant to ASC 855, management has evaluated all events and transactions that occurred fromSeptember 30, 2018through the date of issuance of these financial statements. During this period, we had the following significant subsequent events:

● On October 3, 2018, the Company issued 6,800,000 common restricted shares to two financing entities that could be used for a loan to the Company, using this issued stock as collateral. The funds will be available on or after April 3, 2019. Funding will be at the discretion of the Company. If funding does not occur, the shares issued will be returned to the Company.

● On October 29, 2018, the Company issued 900,000 common shares to Black Mountain in exchange for payment in full of the Company’s $138,370 debt to Black Mountain.

● On November 5, 2018, the Company issued 800,000 common shares to Powderhorn in exchange for the September 2018 payment on the note due for a $63,000 due.

Overview

Our core business is the development of our water assets.

Current Rights Holdings

In Colorado it is important to have both surface and storage rights, of which we have both. To date, we have acquired, managed and used our water assets principally for use in irrigation, to increase the value and yield of our farmland. While the majority of our assets relate to water, our efforts have focused on our farmland and, more recently, our marijuana greenhouse projects.

We own the following surface water rights as of November 9, 2018:

Structure	Elevation (feet)		Priority No.		Appropriation Date	Consumptive Use (A.F.*)		Decreed Amount (cfs**)

** This is a conditional right while the engineering and construction of structures are completed to perfect a water right, in this case to physically store the water. The conditional right establishes a seniority date but allows time for completion of the project. Conditional rights are reviewed every six years by the water court to confirm that progress is being made on the effort to perfect the right. When a conditional water right is perfected, which can be done incrementally in the case of storage, the water right becomes absolute. In addition, the Cucharas Valley Reservoir has Conditional rights to 34,404 A.F. of additional storage.

New Strategic Initiative

Based on findings from our water task force, we believe we have several opportunities to capitalize on water assets that we currently own or can acquire, in order to address serious storage and supply challenges faced by municipalities, ranches, farmlands and other commercial enterprises in the Arkansas River Basin. In order to address these opportunities, we have identified the following:

● We will seek to address the need for municipal water storage.

● We believe there are a variety of opportunities to lease, both short term and long term, our water assets.

● We have identified underutilized land and water that we own that could be used to expand our irrigated farming operations.

● In January 2011, we entered into a water supply agreement to supply water resources for real estate development in Huerfano County, Colorado.

● Expansion of hemp farming on our irrigated farmland, either as an operator or with a crop share arrangement.

In order to implement this new initiative, additional capital is required. We have been in discussions with numerous providers of capital in a form of new debt, equity, a strategic operational relationship, or a combination of different capital vehicles. Once completed, revenue is anticipated via the leasing of water storage, leasing of water to high value crop producers (e.g. hemp and marijuana growers), and sale of water via our water supply agreement at $6,500 per tap, with approximately 3 taps per acre foot.

Results of Operations

For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2018, compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2017

During the three months ended September 30, 2018, we recorded revenues of $5,000, compared to $1,022,000 in the three-month period ended September 30, 2017. The decrease in revenues from the prior year was due to consolidating our greenhouse operations until April 1, 2018.

Operating expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were $659,000 and $719,000, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, we recognized a loss from continuing operations of $2,649,000 compared to a loss of $579,000, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, discontinued operations recorded a loss of $-0- and a loss of $92,000 respectively.

Other expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were $1,995,000 and $882,000 respectively. The decrease of $687,000 was largely due to a decrease in interest expense of $500,000, due to not consolidating GrowCo and related entities debt and interest expense.

22

As the result of the foregoing, the net loss attributed to our common shareholders, after recognizing preferred distributions and income attributed to non-controlling interest, for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $2,655,000, compared to a loss of $962,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2017.

For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018, compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we recorded revenues of $22,000, compared to $2,905,000 in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2017. The decrease in revenues from the prior year was overwhelmingly due to our greenhouse operations not being consolidated in 2018.

Operating expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were $1,883,000 and $1,544,000, respectively. The increase of $339,000 was primarily due to the increase in stock and warrant expense. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, we recognized profit from continuing operations of $7,858,000 compared to a loss of $619,000, respectively. This increase in gain from continuing operations was due to a net, noncash, benefit of $12,156,000 due to the deconsolidation of GrowCo in 2018 offset by a $1,800,000 liability for dam demolition. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, loss from discontinued operations was $810,000 and $1,174,000 respectively.

Other income and expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were income of $9,719,000 and expense of $1,980,000 respectively. The income increase of $11,699,000, as explained above, was largely due to the noncash gain from deconsolidating GrowCo and not recognizing GrowCo interest expense between April 1, 2018 through September 30, 2018 with an offset for the liability for dam demolition.

As the result of the foregoing, the net income attributed to our common shareholders, after recognizing preferred distributions and income attributed to non-controlling interest, for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $6,046,000, compared to a loss of $3,135,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We historically have funded our operations primarily from the following sources:

● proceeds of private placements of equity, equity-related and debt securities of Two Rivers Water & Farming Company and subsidiaries;

● cash flow generated from operations; and

● loans and lines of credit.

As of September 30, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $54,000. As of September 30, 2018, we had no available commercial banking line or letters of credit and do not intend to seek any such financing in the foreseeable future.

We currently expect that our cash expenditures will remain constant for the foreseeable future, as we seek to monetize our water assets. As a result, our existing cash, cash equivalents and other working capital may not be sufficient to meet all projected cash needs contemplated by our business strategies for the remainder of 2018 and for 2019. To the extent our cash, cash equivalents and other working capital are insufficient to fund our planned activities, we may need to either slow our growth initiatives or raise additional funds through public or private equity or debt financings. We also may need to raise additional funds in the event we determine in the future to affect one or more acquisitions of businesses, technologies and products. If additional funding is required, we cannot assure that we will be able to affect an equity or debt financing on terms acceptable to us or at all.

We are in on-going discussions with a strategic partner and seeking out new debt funding to consolidate our existing debt and provide new capital to expand our water redevelopment and expansion efforts.

Sources of Funds

Cash flows generated by our financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $894,000 compared to $2,161,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we raised $1,426,000 from new debt offerings and reduced the principal amount of notes payable by $532,000.

23

Uses of Funds

Cash flow from operations has not historically been sufficient to sustain our operations. Cash flow consumed by our operating activities totaled $824,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and $2,459,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

Cash used by investing activities was $30,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to cash generated by investing activities of $250,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

We cannot predict, with certainty, the outcome of our actions to generate liquidity, including the availability of additional financing, or whether such actions would generate the expected liquidity as currently planned.

We believe that the actions planned by management to address our liquidity issues as described above are probable of occurring and mitigating the substantial doubt raised by our historical operating results and satisfying our estimated liquidity needs 12 months from the issuance of the financial statements. However, we cannot predict, with certainty, the outcome of our actions to generate liquidity, including the availability of additional financing, or whether such actions would generate the expected liquidity as currently planned.

Critical Accounting Policies

We have identified the policies below as critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results from operations. The impact and any associated risks related to these policies on our business operations is discussed throughout “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations” where such policies affect our reported and expected financial results. For a detailed discussion of the application of these and other accounting policies, see Note 2 of the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. Our preparation of such condensed consolidated financial statements and this Form 10-Q requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

We follow specific and detailed guidelines in measuring revenue; however, certain judgments may affect the application of our revenue policy. Revenue results are difficult to predict, and any shortfall in revenue or delay in recognizing revenue could cause our operating results to vary significantly from quarter to quarter and could result in future operating losses.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

We have acquired water shares in Huerfano-Cucharas Irrigation Company, which is considered an intangible asset and shown on our balance sheet as part of “Water assets.” Currently, these shares are recorded at purchase price less our pro rata share of the negative net worth in HCIC Holdings, LLC. Management evaluates the carrying value, and if necessary, will establish an impairment of value to reflect current fair market value. Currently, there are no impairments on the water shares.

Impairment Policy

At least once every year, management examines all of our assets for proper valuation and to determine if an impairment is necessary. In terms of real estate owned, this impairment examination also includes the accumulated depreciation. Management examines market valuations and if an additional impairment is necessary for lower of cost or market, then an impairment charge is recorded.

24

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes and change in the market values of our real estate properties and water assets. Because we had no market risk sensitive instruments outstanding as of September 30, 2018, it was determined that there was no material market risk exposure to our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows as of such date. We do not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Management’s Evaluation of Disclosures Controls and Procedures

Our management, comprised of our chief executive officer (CEO) and chief financial officer (CFO), presently the same person fills both officer roles, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2018. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Based on that evaluation, and taking the matters described below into account, the Company’s CEO and CFO and have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures over financial reporting were not effective during reporting period ended September 30, 2018.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting. “Internal control over financial reporting” is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, a company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by a company’s board of directors, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

● pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of a company;

● provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of a company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of a company; and

● provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of a company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, which may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

25

Based upon our evaluation of internal controls, the Company’s management determined that the Company’s controls over financial reporting were not adequate to ensure complex accounting calculations were performed correctly. As such, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures contain a material weakness as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Because of the material weaknesses identified, a reasonable possibility exists that a material misstatement in our consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. While our internal controls are established and followed, it is clear by the identified weaknesses that they were not operating as they should be. Management believes that this was the case due to our limited staff along with time constraints and staff turnover. However, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, who is also our Principal Accounting Officer, believes that the financial statements included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented, in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

Plan for Remediation of Material Weaknesses

The remediation effort outlined below is intended to address the identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.

Once significant additional capital is raised, we plan to hire a qualified Chief Financial Officer. A short-term task of the new CFO will be to do a formal assessment of our internal controls.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting due to an exemption provided by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, or the Dodd-Frank Act, enacted into law in July 2010. The Dodd-Frank Act provides smaller public companies and debt-only issuers with a permanent exemption from the requirement to obtain an external audit on the effectiveness of internal financial reporting controls provided in Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We are a smaller reporting company and are eligible for this exemption under the Dodd-Frank Act.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We will continue to monitor the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in the areas affected by the facts described above and employ any additional tools and resources deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements are fairly stated in all material respects.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Since 2016, the Suncanna lease arrangement was the subject of administrative and judicial proceedings:

● On April 14, 2016 we were notified that Suncanna LLC had received a notice of suspension from the Marijuana Enforcement Division of the Colorado Department of Revenue. This suspension remains in place until a hearing.

● This caused Suncanna to be in violation of its lease with GCP1. On April 25, 2016, GCP1 terminated Suncanna’s lease and began an eviction process against Suncanna. Due to the eviction process, during the three months ended March 31, 2016, we wrote off $743,000 in Lease Revenues – Related Party, wrote off $587,000 in advances to Suncanna, and did not recognize any Lease Revenues – Related Party.

● On July 22, 2016 GCP1 received a Writ of Restitution from the Pueblo County Colorado District Court ordering Suncanna to vacate the greenhouse by September 6, 2016.

● On August 31, 2016 a lawsuit was filed by Aaron Van Wingerden, owner of Suncanna, in Pueblo County Colorado District Court against GrowCo, GrowCo Business Development, LLC, GCP1, GrowCo Funding, LLC., TR Capital, Two Rivers and certain current and former employees, and associates. We believe that the suit has no merit and will have no material impact on our financial condition.

● On September 6, 2016, in accordance with the Writ of Restitution, Suncanna vacated the greenhouse and GCP1 took possession and began re-conditioning its greenhouse for a new tenant, who began growing operations in the fourth quarter of 2016.

● On October 27, 2016, in a contempt of court hearing, a Pueblo County Colorado District Court judge ruled in favor of plaintiff Aaron Van Wingerden and against GCP1 in a matter regarding the prevention of Suncanna’s access to GCP1’s greenhouse prior to Suncanna vacating the premises on September 6, 2016. We believe that this ruling was in error and are appealing this decision.

The Company, the other defendants and the plaintiffs have settled this case.

The Company, the State of Colorado (Office of the State Engineer and the local Division Engineer), and neighboring water rights holders have been involved in litigation in the Colorado Division 2 Water Court concerning water rights and claims by the State concerning an existing dam in Huerfano County, Colorado, and a demand by the State to breach the dam structure. (Two Rivers Water and Farming Co. vs. Welton Land and Water Co., (Pueblo Water Court)). As part of the litigation, Two Rivers sought to have certain water rights demands by the neighboring water rights holders deemed wasteful. The Company has withdrawn this suit with prejudice, and the water rights holders have sued for their legal fees.

In the quarter ending March 31, 2016, Two Rivers entered into a stipulation agreement with the State, settling the State’s claims at that time. Under the stipulation agreement, Two Rivers agreed to take the existing dam structure down to the sediment level by March 31, 2018. Two Rivers has been able to empty all the water in the Dam but was not able to meet the requirements of the agreement by March 31, 2018 due to lack of capital. On April 3, 2018, the State filed a motion for the issuance of a contempt of court citation against the Company, its directors, former director John McKowen, and certain other individuals for breach of the agreement seeking sanctions, imposition of a civil penalty of $100,000 and payment of legal fees. The Company and its directors are contesting the sanctions sought in the contempt motion, based in part upon those sanctions being unnecessary and unduly punitive. Preliminary hearings for the defendants were held on May 10 and June 8, 2018. At the May 10, 2018 hearing it was determined that the State of Colorado can proceed with its action. At the June 8 hearing, a trial date of December 17, 2018 was set by the Court. At the June 8 hearing, a trial date of December 17, 2018 was set by the Court that was subsequently postponed to October 2019.

The Company intends to continue its efforts to seek funding so that it can comply with the agreement. If successful in obtaining financing, the Company intends to work with the Colorado State Engineer to take down the existing dam. Once this work is completed, the Company will seek additional funding to construct a new dam close to the prior dam structure. The Company’s engineering firm estimate the cost to breach the dam structure to be between $1.8 to $2.2 million.

27

On August 8, 2017, a summons was issued in the Arapahoe County District Court on behalf of former board members Dennis Channer, Rockey Wells and John Stroh demanding Two Rivers pay $139,000 in attorneys’ fees owed to Ryley Carlock & Applewhite (“RCA”) for services rendered to the former board members at their behest while members of the board. The Company has reached an agreement to pay RCA’s fees over time.

On October 18, 2017, at the Company filed a lawsuit against former employees of the its DFP farming operation for alleged theft. We are in the process of gathering evidence of the theft and setting a court hearing date. A former employee of DFP has filed a counter claim against the Company, which amount is immaterial. Management believes that claims against former employees are in excess of any counter claims.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

The risks described in Item 1A. Risk Factors, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Those risk factors do not identify all risks that we face, and operations could also be affected by factors that are not presently known to us or that we currently consider to be immaterial to our operations.
