Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the activity of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the interim periods presented herein, but are not necessarily indicative of operating results to be achieved for full fiscal years or other interim periods. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of August 31, 2019 was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date but does not include all disclosures as required by GAAP. These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019 and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year then ended and filed with the SEC on November 12, 2019. References to amounts in these notes to condensed consolidated financial statements are in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise specified. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates relied upon in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition, accounts receivable reserves, inventory and related reserves, expected future cash flows used to evaluate the recoverability of long-lived assets, estimated fair values of long-lived assets used to record impairment charges related to intangible assets and goodwill, amortization periods, accrued expenses, stock-based compensation, and recoverability of the Company’s net deferred tax assets and any related valuation allowance. Although the Company regularly assesses these estimates, actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from management’s estimates if past experience or other assumptions do not turn out to be substantially accurate. The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to those of other companies of similar size and with a focus on serving the cannabis and CBD industries, including, the development of certain products, competition, a limited number of suppliers, integration of acquisitions, substantial indebtedness, disruptions in the U.S. and global economy and financial markets, including as a result of COVID-19, government regulations, protection of proprietary rights, and dependence on key individuals. If the Company does not successfully generate additional products and services, or if such products and services are developed but not successfully commercialized, the Company could lose revenue opportunities. Accounts Receivable Trade accounts receivable are carried at their estimated collectible amounts. Trade credit is generally extended on a short-term basis; thus, trade receivables do not bear interest. Trade accounts receivables are periodically evaluated for collectability based on past credit history and their current financial condition. The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $8,342 and $1,058 as of February 29, 2020 and August 31, 2019, respectively. The increase in allowance for doubtful accounts was driven primarily by the deteriorating credit conditions in California exhibited by the Company's customers in this market, which have significantly impacted the Company's ability to collect, in part or in full, amounts owed by these customers. The Company’s sales return reserve was $593 and $477 as of February 29, 2020 and August 31, 2019, respectively, and is included in “Accounts receivable, net” on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. Inventory Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the average cost method. The Company’s inventory consists of finished goods of $26,423 and $43,768 as of February 29, 2020 and August 31, 2019, respectively. The Company also makes prepayments against the future delivery of inventory classified as prepaid inventory. The Company’s prepaid inventory was $7,473 and $7,134 as of February 29, 2020 and August 31, 2019, respectively. The Company regularly reviews inventory and, when appropriate, records a provision for obsolete and excess inventory. The provision is based on actual loss experience and a forecast of product demand compared to its remaining shelf life. As of February 29, 2020, the Company had $14,442 of inventory reserve. Equity Investment in Xtraction Services On January 30, 2020, the Company partnered with Xtraction Services Holding Corp (“Xtraction Services”), a provider of equipment leasing solutions to owners and operators of cannabis and hemp companies in the United States in order to provide such solutions to the Company’s network of compliant cannabis and CBD operators. Under the terms of its agreement with Xtraction Services, the Company received 19.9% of the outstanding equity interests of Xtraction Services, on an as-converted basis, in the form of Proportionate Voting Shares (the “XS Shares”). Upon the closing of the transaction, the Company issued 1,653 of its common shares in exchange for 10,600 XS shares of Xtraction Services, the equivalent of 19.9% of Xtraction Services market capitalization on the closing date. On January 30, 2020, the value of shares issued in exchange for equity investment in Xtraction Services was $2,528. The Company’s investment in Xtraction Services is included in “Other assets” on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. Net Loss Per Share The Company computes earnings per share under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 260, Earnings per Share (“ASC 260”). Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the sum of (a) the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period and (b) the potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Stock options are potentially dilutive securities; and the number of dilutive options is computed using the treasury stock method. For the three and six months ended February 29, 2020, basic and diluted weighted average shares are the same, as the Company generated a net loss for the period. The computation for the three and six months ended February 29, 2020 does not include 14,553 options and 21,737 warrants, as their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect on net loss per share. For the three and six months ended February 28, 2019, net loss is adjusted for changes in fair value of warrants recorded as a liability (see Note 9 below) and weighted average diluted shares includes dilutive warrants. The computation of diluted net loss per share for the three and six months ended February 28, 2019 does not include 12,003 options and 6,988 warrants, as their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect on net loss per share. Revenue Recognition The Company markets and sells a wide variety of ancillary products and services to customers operating in the regulated medical and recreational cannabis and CBD industries. These complementary products and services include compliant and custom packaging products; vape hardware; hydrocarbons and solvents; natural products; stainless steel tanks; custom branded anti-counterfeit and authentication labels; hemp trading services; and retail services focused on CBD mass distribution, industry education and compliance. In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , the Company applies the following steps to recognize revenue for the sale of products that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for the promised goods: · Identify the contract with a customer. · Identify the performance obligations in the contract. · Determine the transaction price. · Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract. · Recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation. Advertising The Company conducts advertising for the promotion of its products and services. In accordance with ASC subtopic 720-35-25 (“ASC 720”), advertising costs are charged to expense when incurred. Advertising costs were $96 and $285 for the three months ended February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019, respectively. Advertising costs were $178 and $778 for the six months ended February 29, 2020 and February 28, 2019, respectively. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-13, Changes to Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurements , which will improve the effectiveness of disclosure requirements for recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The ASU removes, modifies, and adds certain disclosure requirements and is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements. In December 2019, the FASB Issued ASU 2019-12, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting of Income Taxes", which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine its impact it may have on its financial statements. In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-01, “Investments - Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815.” The ASU is based on a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force and is expected to increase comparability in accounting for these transactions. ASU 2016-01 made targeted improvements to accounting for financial instruments, including providing an entity the ability to measure certain equity securities without a readily determinable fair value at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. Among other topics, the amendments clarify that an entity should consider observable transactions that require it to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting. For public business entities, the amendments in the ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements. Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures. |
