FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This document contains forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements relate to, among other things, the impact of the COVID-19 virus on our business, the results of our initiatives to retain our employees and strengthen our relationships with our customers and community, the effect of our initiatives to expand market share and achieve growth, the expected development of our business and joint ventures, results of operations and financial performance, liquidity, working capital and capital requirements, the effects of the additional dilution on our common stock that may occur as a result of the amendments to our convertible debentures, and anticipated future events. The continued spread of COVID-19 could have, and in some cases already has had, an adverse impact on our business, operations and financial results, including through disruptions in our cultivation and processing activities, supply chains and sales channels, and retail dispensary operations as well as a deterioration of general economic conditions including a possible national or global recession. These forward-looking statements also relate to our ability to obtain debt or equity capital on reasonable terms, or at all, to finance our operations, and to identify, finance and close potential acquisitions and joint ventures, whether our joint venture partner will make its capital contribution, our ability to comply with applicable cannabis-related regulations and obtain regulatory approvals, market acceptance of our services and product offerings, our ability to protect and commercialize our intellectual property, our ability to use net operating losses to offset certain cannabis-related tax liabilities and our ability to grow our wholesale and processing businesses and joint ventures. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “might,” “will,” “should,” “intends,” “expects,” “plans,” “goals,” “projects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology.

 

These forward-looking statements are only predictions, are uncertain and involve substantial known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our (or our industry’s) actual results, levels of activity or performance to be materially different from any expected future results, levels of activity or performance expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

 

We cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity or performance. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date that they were made. These cautionary statements should be considered together with any written or oral forward-looking statements that we may issue in the future. Except as required by applicable law, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to reflect actual results, later events or circumstances or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

 

AVAILABLE INFORMATION

 

We file certain reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Such filings include annual and quarterly reports. The reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) are available on the SEC’s website at (http://www.sec.gov).

CLS HOLDINGS USA, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

November 30, 2023

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1: Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and are expressed in US dollars. The Company has adopted a fiscal year end of May 31st.

 

Principals of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CLS Holdings USA, Inc.; its direct and indirect wholly owned operating subsidiaries, CLS Nevada, Inc., (“CLS Nevada”), CLS Labs, Inc. (“CLS Labs”), CLS Labs Colorado, Inc. (“CLS Colorado”), CLS Massachusetts, Inc. (“CLS Massachusetts”), and Alternative Solutions, LLC (“Alternative Solutions”); and wholly owned inactive subsidiaries CLS Labs Colorado, Inc. (“CLS Colorado”) and CLS Massachusetts, Inc. (“CLS Massachusetts”). Alternative Solutions is the sole owner of the following three entities (collectively, the “Oasis LLCs”): Serenity Wellness Center, LLC (“Serenity Wellness Center”); Serenity Wellness Products, LLC (“Serenity Wellness Products”); and Serenity Wellness Growers, LLC (“Serenity Wellness Growers”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements also include the accounts of CLS CBD in which the company owns a 95% ownership interest and a variable interest entity, Kealii Okamalu, LLC (“Kealii Okamalu”), in which the Company owns a 50% interest. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation of these entities.

 

Nature of Business

 

CLS Holdings USA, Inc. (the “Company”) was originally incorporated as Adelt Design, Inc. (“Adelt”) on March 31, 2011 to manufacture and market carpet binding art. Production and marketing of carpet binding art never commenced.

 

We currently operate a retail marijuana dispensary within walking distance to the Las Vegas Strip and a small-scale cultivation facility, as well as a product manufacturing facility and a wholesale distribution operation in North Las Vegas. The vertically integrated business model drives strong margins to the bottom line on a portion of sales at the dispensary.

 

Our retail dispensary is a single location operation in Nevada and occupies over 5,000 square feet. This location, which is easily accessible by tourists, is currently open 19.5 hours per day for walk-in service. Curbside and in store express pick up is available between the hours of 8:00am and 12:00am. Oasis dispensary also delivers cannabis to residents between the hours of 8:00 AM and 10:00 PM. The central location provides logistical convenience for delivery to all parts of the Las Vegas valley.

 

Our wholesale operations, which occupies approximately 10,000 square feet of a 22,000 square foot warehouse, began sales to third parties in August 2017 and completed construction and received a certificate of occupancy for its state-of-the-art extraction facility in December of 2019. We have made sales to over 85 external customers as of November 30, 2023. Our existing product line includes vaporizers, tinctures, ethanol produced THC distillate, and live and cured hydrocarbon concentrates. At present, the City Trees cultivation facility only grows breeding stock to preserve valuable genetics and does not offer its crops for sale or processing. As a result, all raw materials for manufacturing are sourced from third parties.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Reclassification

 

Certain reclassifications, not affecting previously reported net income or cash flows, have been made to the previously issued financial statements to conform to the current period presentation.

 

8

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $1,759,671 and $998,421 as of November 30, 2023 and May 31, 2023, respectively. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily the result of cash received from notes payable issued during the period.

 

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

The Company generates the majority of its revenues and corresponding accounts receivable from the sale of cannabis, and cannabis related products. The Company evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable considering a combination of factors. In circumstances where it is aware of a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations to it, the Company records a specific reserve for bad debts against amounts due in order to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount it reasonably believes will be collected. For all other customers, the Company recognizes reserves for bad debts based on past write-off experience and the length of time the receivables are past due. The Company had $93 and $0 of bad debt expense during the three months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company had $393 and $0 of bad debt expense during the six months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

Inventory

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using a perpetual inventory system whereby costs are determined by acquisition costs of individual items included in inventory. Market is determined based on net realizable value. Appropriate consideration is given to obsolescence, excessive levels, deterioration, and other factors in evaluating net realizable values. Our cannabis products consist of prepackaged purchased goods ready for resale, along with produced tinctures and extracts developed under our production license.

 

Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is recorded at the lower of cost or estimated net recoverable amount, and is depreciated using the straight-line method over its estimated useful life. Property acquired in a business combination is recorded at estimated initial fair value. Property, plant, and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method based on the lesser of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the lease term based upon the following life expectancy:

 

   

Years

 

Office equipment

    3 to 5  

Furniture & fixtures

    3 to 7  

Machinery & equipment

    3 to 10  

Leasehold improvements

 

Term of lease

 

 

Repairs and maintenance expenditures are charged to operations as incurred. Major improvements and replacements, which extend the useful life of an asset, are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining estimated useful life of the asset. When assets are retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company reviews its property and equipment and any identifiable intangibles including goodwill for impairment on an annual basis utilizing the guidance set forth in the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board ASC 350 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other” and ASC 360 “Property, Plant, and Equipment.” At November 30, 2023, the net carrying value of goodwill on the Company’s balance sheet remained at $557,896.

 

Employee Retention Tax Credit

 

Under the provisions of the extension of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), the Company was eligible for a refundable employee retention tax credit (the “ERTC”), subject to certain criteria. As ERTCs are not within the scope of ASC 740, Income Taxes, the Company has chosen to account for the ERTCs by analogizing to the International Standard IAS 20, Accounting/or Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance (“IAS 20”). In accordance with IAS 20, an entity recognizes government grants only when there is reasonable assurance that the entity will comply with the conditions attached to them and the grants will be received. During the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, the Company received an aggregate of $0 and $924,862, which was accounted for as other income on the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations.

 

9

 

Comprehensive Income

 

ASC 220-10-15 “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” establishes standards for reporting and displaying of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, ASC 220-10-15 requires that all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. The Company does not have any items of comprehensive income in any of the periods presented.

 

Non-Controlling Interests

 

The Company reports “non-controlling interest in subsidiary” as a component of equity, separate from parent’s equity, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations includes “net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interest.” During the three months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company reported a non-controlling interest in the amount of ($92) and ($10,587), respectively, representing 50% of the income (loss) incurred by its partially owned subsidiary, Kealii Okamalu. During the six months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company reported a non-controlling interest in the amount of ($2,200) and $173,060, respectively, representing 50% of the income (loss) incurred by its partially owned subsidiary, Kealii Okamalu.

 

Variable Interest Entities

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIE”), where the Company is the primary beneficiary under the provisions of ASC 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”). A VIE must be consolidated by its primary beneficiary when, along with its affiliates and agents, the primary beneficiary has both: (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance; and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive the benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company reconsiders whether an entity is still a VIE only upon certain triggering events and continually assesses its consolidated VIEs to determine if it continues to be the primary beneficiary. See Note 3.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts and other accounts, the balances of which at times may be uninsured or exceed federally insured limits. From time to time, some of the Company’s funds are also held by escrow agents; these funds may not be federally insured. The Company continually monitors its banking relationships and consequently has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

 

Advertising and Marketing Costs

 

All costs associated with advertising and promoting products are expensed as incurred. Total recognized advertising and marketing expenses were $103,448 and $306,189 for the three months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Total recognized advertising and marketing expenses were $227,059 and $398,125 for the six months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development expenses are charged to operations as incurred. The Company incurred research and development costs of $431 and $683 for the three months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company incurred research and development costs of $1,887 and $683 for the six months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 825–- Financial Instruments, the Company is required to estimate the fair value of all financial instruments included on its balance sheets. The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable, convertible notes payable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, none of which is held for trading, approximate their estimated fair values due to the short-term maturities of those financial instruments.

 

10

 

A three-tier fair value hierarchy is used to prioritize the inputs in measuring fair value as follows:

 

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

 

Level 2–- Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly.

 

Level 3–- Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by market data.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenue from the sale of cannabis products is recognized by Oasis at the point of sale, at which time payment is received, the product is delivered, and the Company’s performance obligation has been met. Management estimates an allowance for sales returns.

 

The Company also recognizes revenue from Serenity Wellness Products LLC and Serenity Wellness Growers LLC, d/b/a City Trees (“City Trees”). City Trees recognizes revenue from the sale of the following cannabis products and services to licensed dispensaries, cultivators and distributors within the State of Nevada:

 

 

Premium organic medical cannabis sold wholesale to licensed retailers

 

 

 

 

Recreational marijuana cannabis products sold wholesale to licensed distributors and retailers

 

 

 

 

Extraction products such as oils and waxes derived from in-house cannabis production

 

 

 

 

Processing and extraction services for licensed medical cannabis cultivators in Nevada

 

 

 

 

High quality cannabis strains in the form of vegetative cuttings for sale to licensed medical cannabis cultivators in Nevada

 

Effective June 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from commercial sales of products and licensing agreements by applying the following steps: (1) identifying the contract with a customer; (2) identifying the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determining the transaction price; (4) allocating the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognizing revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.

Basic and Diluted Earnings or Loss Per Share

 

Basic net earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period, while fully diluted net earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive securities assumed to be outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive securities consist of options and warrants to purchase common stock, and convertible debt. Basic and diluted net loss per share are computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. At November 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company had the following potentially dilutive instruments outstanding: at November 30, 2023, a total of 73,715,637 shares (21,181,449 issuable upon the exercise of warrants, 52,516,688 issuable upon the conversion of convertible notes payable and accrued interest, and 17,500 in stock to be issued); and at November 30, 2022, a total of 42,653,147 shares (21,962,699 issuable upon the exercise of warrants, 256,550 issuable upon the exercise of unit warrants, 20,403,898 issuable upon the conversion of convertible notes payable and accrued interest, and 30,000 in stock to be issued).

 

The Company uses the treasury stock method to calculate the impact of outstanding stock options and warrants. Stock options and warrants for which the exercise price exceeds the average market price over the period have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings per common share and, accordingly, are excluded from the calculations.

 

A net loss causes all outstanding stock options and warrants to be anti-dilutive. As a result, the basic and dilutive losses per common share are the same for the three and six months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022. For the three and six months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company excluded from the calculation of fully diluted earnings per share the following instruments which were anti-dilutive: shares issuable pursuant to the conversion of notes payable and accrued interest, shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of warrants, and shares of common stock issuable.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740. The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as current and non-current based on their characteristics. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations.

 

Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, prohibits businesses from deducting certain expenses associated with trafficking controlled substances (within the meaning of Schedule I and II of the Controlled Substances Act). The IRS has invoked Section 280E in tax audits against various cannabis businesses in the U.S. that are permitted under applicable state laws. Although the IRS has issued a clarification allowing the deduction of certain expenses, the bulk of operating costs and general administrative costs are generally not permitted to be deducted. The operations of certain of the Company’s subsidiaries are subject to Section 280E. This results in permanent differences between ordinary and necessary business expenses deemed non-deductible under IRC Section 280E. Therefore, the effective tax rate can be highly variable and may not necessarily correlate with pre-tax income or loss.

 

Commitments and Contingencies

 

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management and its legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims brought to such legal counsel’s attention as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

 

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed.

 

Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the nature of the guarantee would be disclosed.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

There are various updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Note 2: Going Concern

 

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred net losses from operations resulting in an accumulated deficit of $110,645,559 as of November 30, 2023. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with revenues from operations. The Company has reported positive cash generated from operating activities for the last four quarters, including the three months ended November 30, 2023.

 

Note 3: Joint Venture

 

On October 20, 2021, the Company entered into a management services agreement (the “Quinn River Joint Venture Agreement”) through its 50% owned subsidiary, Kealii Okamalu, with CSI Health MCD LLC (“CSI”) and a commission established by the authority of the Tribal Council of the Fort McDermitt Paiute and Shoshone Tribe (“Tribe”). The purpose of the Quinn River Joint Venture Agreement was to establish a business (the “Quinn River Joint Venture”) to grow, cultivate, process, and sell cannabis and related products. The Quinn River Joint Venture Agreement had an initial term of 10 years plus a 10-year renewal option from the date the first cannabis crop produced is harvested and sold. Pursuant to the Quinn River Joint Venture Agreement, Kealii Okamalu leased approximately 5-10 acres of the Tribe’s land located along the Quinn River at a cost of $3,500 per quarter and managed the design, finance and construction of a cannabis cultivation facility on such tribal lands (“the Cultivation Facility”). Kealii Okamalu managed the ongoing operations of the Cultivation Facility and related business, including, but not limited to, cultivation of cannabis crops, personnel staffing, product packaging, testing, marketing and sales. Packaged products were branded as “Quinn River Farms.” The Company provided 10,000 square feet of warehouse space at its Las Vegas facility and had preferred vendor status including the right to purchase cannabis flower and the business’s cannabis trim at favorable prices. Kealii Okamalu was required to contribute $6 million towards the construction of the Cultivation Facility and the working capital for the Quinn River Joint Venture. This amount was to be repaid from the portion of the net profits of the Quinn River Joint Venture otherwise payable to CSI and the Tribe at the rate of $750,000 per quarter for eight quarters. Kealii Okamalu was to receive one-third of the net profits of the Quinn River Joint Venture after being repaid its initial contribution.

 

The Company is the manager of and holds a 50% ownership interest in Kealii Okamalu. Kealii Okamalu is a VIE which the Company consolidates. The Quinn River Joint Venture is not a legal entity but rather a business operated by Kealii Okamalu. The Company uses the equity method of accounting to record one-third of the profit or loss generated by the Quinn River Joint Venture, which accrues to Kealii Okamalu. Since the Company is a 50% owner of Kealii Okamalu, 50% of the profit or loss of Kealii Okamalu is recorded as minority interest in the Company’s statement of operations.

 

During the year ended May 31, 2022, Kealii Okamalu made cash investments in the aggregate amount of $581,714 in the Quinn River Joint Venture. The Company also purchased $949,939 of fixed assets for use by the Quinn River Joint Venture which are on the balance sheet of Kealii Okamalu. During the year ended May 31, 2022, the Quinn River Joint Venture recorded a loss in the amount of $336,416. One-third of this amount, or $112,139, was charged to the financial statements of Kealii Okamalu and recorded as a loss on equity investment in the Company’s financial statements for the year ended May 31, 2022, reducing the Company’s equity investment in the Quinn River Joint Venture from $581,714 to $469,575 at May 31, 2022.

 

During the year ended May 31, 2023, Kealii Okamalu made cash investments in the aggregate amount of $304,145 in the Quinn River Joint Venture. During the year ended May 31, 2023, the Quinn River Joint Venture recorded a loss in the amount of $536,022. One-third of this amount, or $178,674, was charged to the financial statements of Kealii Okamalu and recorded as a loss on equity investment in the Company’s financial statements for the year ended May 31, 2023. The Company additional cash investments, less the loss on the joint venture for the year ended May 31, 2023 resulted in a net increase in the Company’s equity investment in the Quinn River Joint Venture from $496,575 to $595,046 at May 31, 2023. There was no additional investment made in the Quinn River Joint Venture during the six months ended November 30, 2023.

The Company’s partner in Kealii Okamalu LLC has defaulted on the LLC Operating Agreement and the Quinn River Joint Venture Agreement by failing to make any of its required $3 million capital contribution. As a result of the default by the Company’s partner in Kealii Okamalu LLC, the Tribal Council has formally terminated the Quinn River Joint Venture Agreement. Prior to the termination, the Company removed all of its assets from the tribal land and all of the assets owned by Kealii Okamalu. Although the Company and the Tribal Council have worked over the last few months to explore a new 50/50 partnership with the Tribe, the Company has elected not to continue to pursue an agreement since the economic benefits of doing so are negligible, at best, in the current market. The Company does not believe it is likely to recover its investment in Kealii Okamalu and has recorded an impairment charge in the amount of $1,590,742 against the following assets during the year ended May 31, 2023:

 

Deposits and prepaid expenses

  $ 33,000  

Fixed assets

    756,808  

Right of use assets

    205,888  

Equity investment in Quinn River

    595,046  

Total impairment

  $ 1,590,742  

 

Following the impairment charge the net book value of the Company’s investment in Kealii Okamalu and the Quinn River Joint Venture at November 30, 2023 is $0.

 

Note 4: Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable was $933,011 and $431,204 at November 30, 2023 and May 31, 2023, respectively.

The Company had bad debt expense of $393 and $0 during the six months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022. No allowance for doubtful accounts was necessary during the three months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022.

Note 7: Note Receivable

 

On October 31, 2018, the Company loaned $5,000,000 to In Good Health, Inc. (“IGH”) in connection with an option to purchase transaction (the “IGH Option”).

 

By letter dated February 26, 2020, the Company informed IGH that as a result of its breaches of the IGH Option, which remained uncured, an event of default had occurred under the IGH Note. The Company advised IGH that it was electing to cause the IGH Note to bear interest at the default rate of 15% per annum effective February 26, 2020 and to accelerate all amounts due under the Note. This dispute, including whether IGH breached the IGH Option and whether CLS was entitled to collect default interest, was in litigation.

 

On June 14, 2021, the parties to the IGH lawsuit entered into a confidential settlement agreement to resolve the action and the IGH Settlement Note. Pursuant to the IGH Settlement Note, IGH paid the Company $3,000,000, $500,000 of which was paid on or before June 21, 2021. A second payment of $500,000 was paid on or before July 12, 2021. The remaining $2,000,000 and accrued interest was paid in 12 equal monthly installments beginning on August 12, 2021, pursuant to the terms of the promissory note.

Note 15: Convertible Notes Payable

 

   

November 30, 2023

   

May 31, 2023

 
                 

Convertible debenture in the principal amount of $1,000,000 (the “U.S. Convertible Debenture 2”) dated October 31, 2018, which bears interest, payable quarterly, at a rate of 8% per annum, with interest during the first eighteen months following issuance being payable by increasing the then-outstanding principal amount of the U.S. Convertible Debenture 2. The U.S. Convertible Debenture 2 was to mature on a date that was three years following issuance. The U.S. Convertible Debenture 2 was convertible into Convertible Debenture Units at a conversion price of $3.20 per Convertible Debenture Unit. Each Convertible Debenture Unit consisted of (i) one share of the Company’s common stock, and (ii) one-half of one warrant, with each warrant exercisable for three years to purchase a share of common stock at a price of $4.40. On July 26, 2019, U.S. Convertible Debenture 2 was amended such that, should the Company issue or sell common stock or equity securities convertible into common stock at a price less than the conversion price of the U.S. convertible Debenture 2, the conversion price of U.S. Convertible Debenture 2 would be reduced to such issuance price, and the exercise price of the warrant issuable in connection with U.S. Convertible Debenture 2 would be exercisable at a price equal to 137.5% of the adjusted conversion price at the time of conversion. The U.S. Convertible Debenture 2 has other features, such as mandatory conversion in the event the common stock trades at a particular price over a specified period of time and required redemption in the event of a “Change in Control” of the Company. The U.S. Convertible Debenture 2 is an unsecured obligation of the Company and ranks pari passu in right of payment of principal and interest with all other unsecured obligations of the Company. The Company recorded a discount in the amount of $813,724 on the U.S. Convertible Debenture 2. During the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, the Company accrued interest in the amounts of $9,009 and $18,018 on the U.S. Convertible Debenture 2, respectively. During the three months and six months ended November 30, 2023, the Company made no interest payments on the U.S. Convertible Debenture 2. On April 15, 2021, the U.S. Convertible Debenture 2 was amended as follows: (i) the conversion price of the debentures was reduced to $1.20 per unit; and (ii) the maturity date was extended from October 31, 2021 to October 31, 2022. This amendment was accounted for as an extinguishment of debt, and the Company recorded a loss in the amount of $509,700 during the year ended May 31, 2021. On September 15, 2022, the U.S. Convertible Debenture 2 was further amended as follows: (i) the conversion price of debentures with a principal amount of $675,668 was reduced to $0.285 per unit, and these debentures along with accrued interest in the amount of $11,261 were converted to 2,410,279 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 1,205,140 shares of common stock; (ii) the conversion price of the remaining debentures with a principal amount of $450,446 was reduced to $0.40 per share; (iii) the maturity date of 50% of the remaining debentures with a principal amount of $225,223 was extended to December 31, 2023, and the maturity date of 50% of the remaining debentures with a principal amount of $225,223 was extended to December 31, 2024; and (iv) the conversion price of the warrants issuable upon conversion of the debentures was reduced to $0.40. The value of the warrants will be determined when the issuance becomes probable, which the Company believes is unlikely to occur until the conversion price of the debentures is below the market price of the Company’s common stock. This amendment was accounted for as an extinguishment of debt, and a loss in the amount of $422,331 was recorded on this transaction. The fair values of the warrants and conversion options included in the calculation of the loss on extinguishment of debt were $223,515 and $198,816, respectively.

The U.S. Convertible Debenture 4 was convertible into Convertible Debenture Units at a conversion price of $3.20 per Convertible Debenture Unit.

This amendment was accounted for as an extinguishment of debt, and the Company recorded a loss in the amount of $271,164 during the year ended May 31, 2021. On October 25, 2022, the Company received a notice of demand from the lender, placing the U.S. Convertible Debt 4 into default status. On November 1, 2022, the Company entered into a forbearance agreement with the lender (the “Forbearance Agreement”) with the following terms: (i) the Company will pay the lender the amount of $150,000 on November 2, 2022, and an additional $50,000 each month for the following nine months, or a total of $600,000; (ii) the default interest rate of 12% will be applied on the existing principal balances until paid in full; (iii) lender shall forbear from taking any further action based upon the existing default. As a result of this agreement, the Company capitalized $3,283 of accrued interest. During the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, the Company accrued interest in the amount of $0 and $11,982, respectively, on the U.S. Convertible Debenture 4. The Company recognized a gain in the amount of $2,384 on this transaction during the year ended May 31, 2023.

Convertible debentures payable in the aggregate principal amount of $12,012,000 (the “Canaccord Debentures”) dated December 12, 2018, which bear interest, payable quarterly, at a rate of 8% per annum, with interest during the first eighteen months following issuance being payable by increasing the then-outstanding principal amount of the Canaccord Debentures. The Canaccord Debentures were to mature on a date that was three years following issuance. The Canaccord Debentures were convertible into Convertible Debenture Units at a conversion price of $3.20 per Convertible Debenture Unit. Each Convertible Debenture Unit consisted of (i) one share of the Company’s common stock, and (ii) one-half of one warrant, with each warrant exercisable for three years to purchase a share of common stock at a price of $4.40. The Canaccord Debentures have other features, such as mandatory conversion in the event the common stock trades at a particular price over a specified period of time and required redemption in the event of a “Change in Control” of the Company. The Canaccord Debentures are unsecured obligations of the Company and rank pari passu in right of payment of principal and interest with all other unsecured obligations of the Company. During the three months ended November 30, 2019, in two separate transactions, principal in the aggregate amount of $25,857 was converted into an aggregate of 8,081 shares of the Company’s common stock, and warrants to purchase 4,040 shares of common stock. There were no gains or losses recorded on these conversions because they were done in accordance with the terms of the original agreement. No discount was recorded for the fair value of the warrants issued. Because the market price of the Company’s common stock was less than the conversion price on the date of issuance of the Canaccord Debentures, a discount was not recorded on the Canaccord Debentures. During the three and six months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company accrued interest in the amounts of $105,077 and $210,155, respectively, on the Canaccord Debentures. During the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, the Company made no interest payments on the Canaccord Debentures. On March 31, 2021, the Canaccord Debentures were amended as follows: (i) the conversion price of the debentures was reduced to $1.20 per unit; (ii) the maturity date was extended from December 12, 2021 to December 12, 2022; (iii) the mandatory conversion threshold was reduced from a daily volume weighted average trading price of greater than $4.80 per share to $2.40 per share for the preceding ten consecutive trading days; and (iv) the exercise price of the warrants issuable upon conversion was reduced from $4.40 to $1.60 and the expiration of the warrants extended until March 31, 2024. This amendment was accounted for as an extinguishment of debt, and the Company recorded a loss in the amount of $3,286,012 during the year ended May 31, 2021. During the year ended May 31, 2022, principal In the aggregate amount of $281,000 was converted into an aggregate of 234,167 shares of the Company’s common stock, and warrants to purchase 117,084 shares of common stock. There were no gains or losses recorded on these conversions because they were done in accordance with the terms of the original agreement. On September 15, 2022, the Canaccord Debentures were further amended as follows: (i) the conversion price of debentures with a principal amount of $7,965,278 was reduced to $0.285 per unit, and these debentures along with accrued interest in the amount of $132,755 were converted to 28,414,149 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 14,207,075 shares of common stock; (ii) the conversion price of the remaining debentures with a principal amount of $52,53,873 was reduced to $0.40 per share; (iii) the maturity date of 50% of the remaining debentures with a principal amount of $2,626,936.50 was extended to December 31, 2023, and the maturity date of 50% of the remaining debentures with a principal amount of $2,626,936.50 was extended to December 31, 2024; and (iv) the conversion price of the warrants issuable upon conversion of the debentures was reduced to $0.40. The value of the warrants will be determined when the issuance becomes probable, which the Company believes is unlikely to occur until the conversion price of the debentures is below the market price of the Company’s common stock. This amendment was accounted for as an extinguishment of debt, and a loss in the amount of $4,547,660 was recorded on this transaction. The fair values of the warrants and conversion options included in the calculation of the loss on extinguishment of debt were $2,623,852 and $1,923,808, respectively.

The Company, at its sole discretion, on or before December 6, 2023, may elect to satisfy the principal and interest due under the November 2023 Debentures by the issuance of shares of common stock at a price of $0.0345 per share; this conversion would result in the issuance of 32,000,000 shares of common stock. The conversion feature of the November 2023 Debentures had an intrinsic value in the amount of $62,400; this amount was recorded as a discount. During the three months ended November 30, 2023, no amortization was recorded on these discounts because the notes were issued on the last day of the period.

Convertible debenture in the principal amount of $4,000,000 to a related party (the “U.S. Convertible Debenture 1”) dated October 31, 2018, which bears interest, payable quarterly, at a rate of 8% per annum, with interest during the first eighteen months following issuance being payable by increasing the then-outstanding principal amount of the U.S. Convertible Debenture 1. The U.S. Convertible Debenture 1 was to mature on a date that was three years following issuance. The U.S. Convertible Debenture 1 was convertible into units (the “Convertible Debenture Units”) at a conversion price of $3.20 per Convertible Debenture Unit. Each Convertible Debenture Unit consisted of (i) one share of the Company’s common stock, and (ii) one-half of one warrant, with each warrant exercisable for three years to purchase a share of common stock at a price of $4.40. On July 26, 2019, U.S. Convertible Debenture 1 was amended such that, should the Company issue or sell common stock or equity securities convertible into common stock at a price less than the conversion price of the U.S. Convertible Debenture 1, the conversion price of U.S. Convertible Debenture 1 would be reduced to such issuance price, and the exercise price of the warrant Issuable in connection with U.S. Convertible Debenture 1 would be exercisable at a price equal to 137.5% of the adjusted conversion price at the time of conversion. The U.S. Convertible Debenture 1 has other features, such as mandatory conversion in the event the common stock trades at a particular price over a specified period of time and required redemption in the event of a “Change in Control” of the Company. The U.S. Convertible Debenture 1 is an unsecured obligation of the Company and ranks pari passu in right of payment of principal and interest with all other unsecured obligations of the Company. The Company recorded a discount in the amount of $3,254,896 on the U.S. Convertible Debenture 1. During the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, the Company accrued interest in the amounts of $36,036 and $72,072, respectively, on the U.S. Convertible Debenture 1. During the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, the Company made no interest payments on the U.S. Convertible Note 1. On April 15, 2021, the U.S. Convertible Debenture 1 was amended as follows: (i) the conversion price of the debenture was reduced to $1.20 per unit; and (ii) the maturity date was extended from October 31, 2021 to October 31, 2022. This amendment was accounted for as an extinguishment of debt, and the Company recorded a loss in the amount of $2,038,803 during the year ended May 31, 2021 in connection with the amendment. On September 15, 2022, the U.S. Convertible Debenture 1 was further amended as follows: (i) the conversion price of debentures with a principal amount of $2,702,674 was reduced to $0.285 per unit, and these debentures along with accrued interest in the amount of $45,044 were converted to 9,641,118 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 4,820,560 shares of common stock; (ii) the conversion price of the remaining debentures with a principal amount of $1,801,783 was reduced to $0.40 per share; (iii) the maturity date of 50% of the remaining debentures with a principal amount of $900,891.50 was extended to December 31, 2023, and the maturity date of 50% of the remaining debentures with a principal amount of $900,891.50 was extended to December 31, 2024; and (iv) the conversion price of the warrants issuable upon conversion of the debentures was reduced to $0.40. The value of the warrants will be determined when the issuance becomes probable, which the Company believes is unlikely to occur until the conversion price of the debentures is below the market price of the Company’s common stock. This amendment was accounted for as an extinguishment of debt, and a loss in the amount of $1,689,368 was recorded on this transaction. The fair values of the warrants and conversion options included in the calculation of the loss on extinguishment of debt were $894,090 and $795,278, respectively.

Note: Change in uncertain tax position with all tax expense recorded in current year due to change in estimate. No prior year net operating loss was considered.

 

Due to the accrual of taxes related to Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, the Company has an uncertain tax accrual that is currently being expensed as a change in estimate. The Company has net operating losses that it believes are available to it to offset this expense; however, there can be no assurance under current interpretations of tax laws for cannabis companies that the Company will be allowed to use these net operating losses to offset Section 280E tax expenses.

Legal Matters

 

From time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. As of the date of filing of this report, there were no pending or threatened lawsuits.

 

Integrity Global Security

 

On October 20, 2022, Integrity Global Security Inc. (“IGS”) filed a Complaint in the Eighth Judicial District Court, Case No. A-22-860152-C, against Serenity alleging Breach of Contract and Breach of Covenant of Good Faith and Fair Dealing. In its Complaint, IGS alleged that Serenity owes IGS the amount of $48,890 for unpaid invoices related to security services performed at Oasis Cannabis Dispensary and City Trees’ locations in Clark County, Nevada. The Company has accrued the amount of $27,314 in connection with this liability of November 30, 2023.

 

In response to IGS’s Complaint, Serenity filed an Answer on December 8, 2022, and a Countercomplaint against IGS asserting claims for Breach of Contract, Breach of the Implied Covenant of Good Faith and Fair Dealing, Negligence, Respondent Superior, Intentional Interference with Prospective Economic Advantage and Negligent Hiring, Training, and Supervision for actions related to a violent attack by an IGS employee against a Serenity employee. Serenity amended its Counterclaim on January 20, 2023, to include more information related to Serenity’s damages sustained as a result of IGS’s actions.

 

IGS filed a Motion to Dismiss Serenity’s Counterclaims on February 10, 2023, which Serenity opposed. However, on May 4, 2023, the morning of the Motion to Dismiss oral argument, IGS’s counsel advised Serenity’s counsel and the Court that IGS was voluntarily withdrawing its Motion to Dismiss. The Court granted IGS’s voluntary withdrawal of the Motion to Dismiss and IGS subsequently filed an Answer to Serenity’s Counterclaim on May 18, 2023.

 

Shortly thereafter the parties’ counsel attended an Early Case Conference on May 18, 2023, and the parties began exchanging information related to relevant witnesses, documents, and computations of damages. IGS served Serenity with Interrogatories, Requests for Admissions, and Requests for Production of Documents on or about July 20, 2023, while Serenity served IGS with their own Interrogatories and Requests for Production of Documents on or about August 11, 2023. Before any of the parties answered the propounded discovery requests served by the other party, the parties agreed to attend a Judicial Settlement Conference with the Eighth Judicial District Court. Accordingly, the parties entered into a Stipulation to Stay Discovery Pending a Judicial Settlement Conference, which was granted and entered by the Eighth Judicial District Court on September 20, 2023.

 

The parties are awaiting available dates from the Eighth Judicial District Court for the Judicial Settlement Conference. Until the parties attend the Judicial Settlement Conference, this matter is stayed. See note 23.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

History

 

We were incorporated on March 31, 2011 as Adelt Design, Inc. to manufacture and market carpet binding art. Production and marketing of carpet binding art never commenced. On November 20, 2014, we adopted amended and restated articles of incorporation, thereby changing our name to CLS Holdings USA, Inc. On April 29, 2015, we entered into a merger agreement with CLS Labs and a newly-formed, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger Sub”) and effected the Merger (the “Merger”). Upon the consummation of the Merger, the separate existence of the Merger Sub ceased and CLS Labs, the surviving corporation in the Merger, became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, with the Company acquiring the stock of CLS Labs. As a result of the Merger, we acquired the business of CLS Labs and abandoned our previous business.

 

CLS Labs was originally incorporated in the state of Nevada on May 1, 2014 under the name RJF Labs, Inc. before changing its name to CLS Labs, Inc. on October 24, 2014. It was formed to commercialize a proprietary method of extracting cannabinoids from cannabis plants and converting the resulting cannabinoid extracts into concentrates such as oils, waxes, edibles and shatter.

 

We have been issued a U.S. patent with respect to our proprietary method of extracting cannabinoids from cannabis plants and converting the resulting cannabinoid extracts into concentrates such as oils, waxes, edibles and shatter. We have not commercialized our proprietary process and due to the current Nevada State laws governing these types of extraction methods, we do not intend to commercialize the proprietary process in the future. CLSH is engaged in attempting to find a buyer for the patent who may be able to use it in another state or another application.

 

The Quinn River Joint Venture Agreement

 

On December 4, 2017, we entered into the Acquisition Agreement with Alternative Solutions to acquire the outstanding equity interests in the Oasis LLCs. Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, as amended, we paid a non-refundable deposit of $250,000 upon signing, which was followed by an additional payment of $1,800,000 on February 5, 2018, for an initial 10% of Alternative Solutions and each of the subsidiaries. At the closing of our purchase of the remaining 90% of the ownership interests in Alternative Solutions and the Oasis LLCs, which occurred on June 27, 2018, we paid the following consideration: $5,995,543 in cash, a $4.0 million promissory note due in December 2019, and $6,000,000 in shares of our common stock. At that time, we applied for regulatory approval to own an interest in the Oasis LLCs, which approval the CCB Granted on June 21, 2018. Just prior to closing, the parties agreed that we would instead acquire all of the membership interests in Alternative Solutions, the parent of the Oasis LLCs, from its members, and the membership interests in the Oasis LLCs owned by members other than Alternative Solutions. The CCB granted final regulatory approval for us to own our interest in the Oasis LLCs through Alternative Solutions under the final structure of the transaction on April 26, 2022.

 

On October 20, 2021, we entered into a management services agreement (the “Quinn River Joint Venture Agreement”) through our 50% owned subsidiary, Kealii Okamalu LLC, with CSI Health MCD LLC (“CSI”) and a commission established by the authority of the Tribal Council of the Fort McDermitt Paiute and Shoshone Tribe (“Tribe”). The purpose of the Quinn River Joint Venture Agreement was to establish a business (the “Quinn River Joint Venture”) to grow, cultivate, process, and sell cannabis and related products. The Quinn River Joint Venture Agreement had an initial term of 10 years plus a 10-year renewal option from the date the first cannabis crop was harvested and sold. Pursuant to the Quinn River Joint Venture Agreement, Kealii Okamalu LLC was expected to eventually lease approximately 20-30 acres of the Tribe’s land located along the Quinn River at a cost of $3,500 per quarter and manage the design, finance and construction of a cannabis cultivation facility on such tribal lands (the “JV Cultivation Facility”). In 2022 and 2023 Kealii Okamalu LLC managed the ongoing operations of the JV Cultivation Facility and related business, including, but not limited to, cultivation of cannabis crops, personnel staffing, product packaging, testing, marketing and sales. Packaged products were branded as “Quinn River Farms.” We provided 10,000 square feet of warehouse space at our Las Vegas facility, and the Quinn River Joint Venture granted us preferred vendor status including the right to purchase cannabis flower and the Quinn River Joint Venture’s cannabis trim at favorable prices. Kealii Okamalu LLC was expected to contribute $6 million towards the construction of the JV Cultivation Facility and the working capital for the Quinn River Joint Venture. This amount was to be repaid from the portion of the net profits of the Quinn River Joint Venture otherwise payable to CSI and the Tribe at the rate of $750,000 per quarter for eight quarters. Kealii Okamalu LLC was to receive one-third of the net profits of the Quinn River Joint Venture. We were the manager of and held a 50% ownership interest in Kealii Okamalu LLC. Kealii Okamalu LLC is a variable interest entity which we consolidate. The Quinn River Joint Venture was not a legal entity but rather a business operated by Kealii Okamalu LLC. The Quinn River Joint Venture completed its first harvest during the year ended May 31, 2023, from which the Company purchased inventory in the amount of $952,124.

 

33

 

As of the year ended May 31, 2023, the Company’s 50% partner in Kealii Okamalu LLC had defaulted on its obligations under both the Kealii Okamalu LLC Operating Agreement and the Quinn River Joint Venture Agreement by failing to make any of its required capital contribution of $3 million. As a result of the partner’s breach, the Quinn River Joint Venture Agreement was officially terminated in July of 2023. Kealii Okamalu LLC is no longer an active operating entity. The Company does not believe it is likely to recover its investment in Kealii Okamalu LLC and has made an impairment charge in the amount of $1,590,742 against these assets during the year ended May 31, 2023.

 

Current Business and Outlook

 

We generate revenues through: (i) our retail dispensary (Oasis), and (ii) our City Trees cultivation and processing of cannabis and wholesale of cannabis-related products for Oasis and third-parties. We continue to explore opportunities for growth through the acquisition of companies, the creation of joint ventures, licensing agreements, and fee-for-service arrangements with growers and dispensaries of cannabis products. We believe that we can ultimately establish a position as one of the premier cannabinoid extraction and processing companies in the industry. We have created our own brand of concentrates for consumer use, which we sell wholesale to cannabis dispensaries. We are attempting to create a “gold standard” national brand by standardizing the testing, compliance and labeling of our products in an industry currently comprised of small, local businesses with erratic and unreliable product quality, testing practices and labeling.

 

Finally, we intend to grow through select acquisitions in secondary and tertiary markets, targeting newly regulated states that we believe offer a competitive advantage. Our goal at this time is to become a successful regional cannabis company.

Revenues

 

We had revenue of $5,197,214 during the three months ended November 30, 2023, a decrease of $876,963, or 14%, compared to revenue of $6,074,177 during the three months ended November 30, 2022. Our cannabis dispensary accounted for $3,104,064, or 60%, of our revenue for the three months ended November 30, 2023, a decrease of $688,740, or 18%, compared to $3,792,804 during the three months ended November 30, 2022. Dispensary revenue decreased during the second quarter of fiscal year 2024 because our average sales per day decreased from $41,679 during the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 to $34,111 during the second quarter of fiscal year 2024. Our cannabis production accounted for $2,093,150, or 40%, of our revenue for the three months ended November 30, 2023, a decrease of $188,223 or 8%, compared to $2,281,373 for the three months ended November 30, 2022. The decrease in production revenues for the second quarter of fiscal year 2024 was primarily due to the fact that the overall cannabis market in Nevada has seen a decrease in wholesale pricing, coupled with a slowdown in nonessential expenditures that comes with inflation and an uncertain economy.

Cost of Goods Sold

 

Our cost of goods sold for the three months ended November 30, 2023 was $3,025,595, a decrease of $123,345, or 4%, compared to cost of goods sold of $3,148,940 for the three months ended November 30, 2022. The decrease in cost of goods sold for the three months ended November 30, 2023 was due primarily due to a decrease in sales.

The decrease in production revenues for the second quarter of fiscal year 2024 was primarily due to the fact that the overall cannabis market in Nevada has seen a decrease in wholesale pricing, coupled with a slowdown in nonessential expenditures that comes with inflation and an uncertain economy.

Our cost of goods sold for the six months ended November 30, 2023 was $5,866,196, a decrease of $427,161, or 7%, compared to cost of goods sold of $6,293,357 for the six months ended November 30, 2022.

The reductions in costs were primarily the result of our cost cutting efforts.

At November 30, 2023, we had a working capital deficit of $14,048,482, a decline in our working capital position of $2,299,463 compared to the working capital deficit of $11,749,019 we had at May 31, 2023. Our working capital decreased primarily due to an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the amount of $995,958 and a shift of notes payable from long term to current classification in the amount of $577,084. Our working capital was also negatively impacted by an increase in our accrued potential tax liability in the amount of $933,564 as a result of the calculation of our tax liability under 280E, which can change based on the deductibility of applicable expenses and is not necessarily tied to operating income. Our potential tax liability under Section 280E was $7,686,021 at November 30, 2023, representing 40% of total current liabilities.

 

We have a 50% ownership of Kealii Okamalu which in turn has a 1/3 interest in the Quinn River Joint Venture. We recently completed the first harvest of the Quinn River Joint Venture and have been selling the products derived from that initial harvest since October of 2022. We received inventory with a value of $952,125 from this initial crop. As of the year ended May 31, 2023, the Company’s 50% partner in Kealii Okamalu LLC had defaulted on its obligations under both the Kealii Okamalu LLC Operating Agreement and the Quinn River Joint Venture Agreement by failing to make any of its required capital contribution of $3 million. As a result of the partner’s breach, the Quinn River Joint Venture Agreement was officially terminated in July of 2023. Kealii Okamalu LLC is no longer an active operating entity. The company does not believe it is likely to recover its investment in Kealii Okamalu LLC and has made an impairment charge in the amount of $1,590,742 against these assets during the year ended May 31, 2023. There was no comparable transaction in the prior period.

 

In September 2022, we successfully refinanced all but one of the U.S. Convertible Debentures and all of the Canaccord Debentures so that 60% of them were converted into equity and the balance of them mature in equal portions in December 2023 and December 2024.

We have recently taken significant actions to improve our liquidity and reduce our debt:

 

On November 30, 2023, we completed a private placement of $960,000 original principal amount of Unsecured Debentures (the “November 2023 Debentures”). The November 2023 Debentures bear interest at 15%, and are convertible to the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, at the option of the Company on or before December 6, 2023, at a conversion price of $0.0345 per share. A minimum of one year of interest is required to be converted as well.

 

On December 6, 2023 we elected to convert the debt owed under the November 2023 Debentures. As a result of the conversion an additional 32,000,000 shares were issued to four separate parties bringing the outstanding number of issued shares of the Company to 104,543,141.

 

On December 28, 2023, we executed a Supplemental Indenture (the “December 28, 2023 Indenture Supplement”) to, among other things, (i) decrease the conversion price of the remaining December Debentures to $0.07 per unit; (ii) change the maturity date of the December Debentures to January 31, 2028; (iii) provide interest accruing between July 1, 2022 and December 31, 2023 to be added to the principal balance of the December Debentures; (iv) grant the debenture holders a put right (the “Put Options”) exercisable to December 29, 2023, grant each debenture holder the right to require the Company to redeem all or any part of such debenture holder’s outstanding December Debenture in cash at a redemption price equal to $600 per $1,000 principal amount of December Debentures elected to be redeemed; any accrued but unpaid interest through to and including the date of the debenture holder’s election shall not be paid and shall be cancelled; (v) granting debenture holders a put right in the event the Company’s cash available for debt service for any fiscal quarter exceeds $750,000, subject to pro ration, to require the Company to redeem all or any part of such debenture holder’s outstanding December Debentures in cash at a redemption price equal to the aggregate principal amount of the December Debentures being so redeemed, (vi) including a provision providing that the Company shall redeem on the last day of each calendar month beginning March 31, 2025 a portion of the outstanding December Debentures less the amount of interest paid on such date; and (vii) subject to the receipt of regulatory approvals, granting a security interest in certain of the Company’s assets (such as licenses, inventory (including work in process), equipment (excluding equipment subject to purchase money financing) and contract rights (excluding investments in entities other than wholly owned subsidiaries)) to the holders of the December Debentures and to other holders of the Company’s debt, now or in the future, as the Company may elect.

 

We expect a significant number of debenture holders to exercise the Put Options pursuant to the terms of the December 28, 2023 Indenture Supplement. As of January 3, 2024, we have received a total of $3,841,308 in principal amount of debentures that have exercised their Put Options. We obtained the November 30, 2023 loan in order to facilitate the payment of these Put Options. Additionally, we are currently in negotiations to obtain an additional $2,000,000 in loans, of which we expect $1,050,000 to be converted into equity at $0.033 per share and $950,000 of which will be in the form of a conventional debenture at 16% interest payable quarterly over 18 months. We will utilize the proceeds of the November 2023 Debentures to complete these put transactions, which will satisfy these debentures in cash at a 40% discount to principal. These transactions have not been completed as of January 3, 2024, and there can be no assurance the they will be completed at the terms which we currently anticipate, if at all.

 

Although our revenues are expected to grow as we expand our operations, we only achieved net income for the first time during our first quarter of fiscal 2022 and we have experienced net losses since such time. Due to our cost control efforts, we have generated positive cash flow from operating activities in the amounts of $223,618. $783,250, $788,724, and $802,729 for the three months ended November 30, 2023, May 31, 2023, February 28, 2023 and May 31, 2023, respectively. As a result of this improved operational performance and our debt we believe we will have funds sufficient to sustain our operations at their current level, or if we require additional cash, we expect to obtain the necessary funds through short-term financing agreements; however, our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in the cannabis business. To address these risks, we must, among other things, seek growth opportunities through investments and acquisitions in our industry, successfully execute our business strategy and successfully navigate business environment in which we currently operate as well as any changes that may arise in the cannabis regulatory environment. We cannot assure that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Cash flows provided by operating activities were $1,004,631 during the six months ended November 30, 2023, an improvement of $2,825,943, or approximately 155%, compared to ($1,821,312) during the six months ended November 30, 2022. In deriving cash flows used in operating activities from the net losses for the three months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, certain non-cash items were deducted from or added back to the net loss for each such period. These amounts were $664,765 and $7,334,224 for the six months ended November 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. For the six months ended November 30, 2023, the most significant items added back to net income were $335,999 of amortization of debt discounts and fees, and $332,748 of depreciation and amortization. For the six months ended November 30, 2022, this included adding back the loss on extinguishment of debt in the amount of $6,659,359, depreciation and amortization in the amount of $477,193, the loss on equity investment of $154,111, and amortization of debt discounts and fees of $394,110; these items were partially offset by the deduction of the gain on settlement of note receivable in the amount of $348,165.

Finally, our cash provided by operating activities was affected by changes in the components of working capital. The amounts of the components of working capital fluctuate for a variety of reasons, including management’s expectation of required inventory levels; the amount of accrued interest, both receivable and payable; the amount of prepaid expenses; the amount of accrued compensation and other accrued liabilities; our accounts payable and accounts receivable balances; and the capitalization of right of use assets and liabilities associated with operating leases. The overall net change in the components of working capital resulted in an increase in cash from operating activities in the amount of $2,103,779 during the six months ended November 30, 2023, compared to an increase in cash from operating activities of $381,956 during six months ended November 30, 2022. The more significant changes for the six months ended November 30, 2023 which were added back to the net loss in deriving cash generated by in operating activities were the changes in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $1,000,336, accrual for taxes in the amount of $933,564, and inventory in the amount of $371,079. These increases were partially offset by a reduction in the amount of $502,200 related to accounts receivable. The more significant changes for the six months ended November 30, 2022 which were added back to the net loss in deriving cash generated by operating activities were the deferred tax liability of $1,035,776 and accounts payable and accrued expenses of $982,209, offset by reductions related to inventory in the amount of $1,458,054 and accounts receivable in the amount of $387,057.

 

Cash flows used by investing activities were $102,423 for the six months ended November 30, 2023, an increase in cash used of $69,155 or 208%, compared to cash used in investing activities of $33,268 during the six months ended November 30, 2022. This increase was primarily due to a decrease in proceeds from the collection of a note receivable compared to the prior period.

 

Cash flows used by financing activities were $140,958 for the six months ended November 30, 2023, a decrease in the amount of $252,271 compared to cash provided by financing activities of $111,313 in the prior period. We received proceeds in the amount of $960,000 from the issuance of convertible notes payable during the period, compared to proceeds from loans payable in the amount of $1,717,115 in the prior period. During the six months ended November 30, 2023, we made principal payments on notes, leases, and convertible debt in the aggregate amount of $1,100,958 compared to $1,605,802 during the prior year period. These payments represent our continued effort to reduce our debt from internal cash flow.

We have generated positive cash flow from operating activities in the amounts of $223,618, $783,250, $788,724, and $802,729 for the three months ended November 30, 2023, May 31, 2023, and February 28, 2023 and May 31, 2023. We believe that we will have sufficient capital to satisfy our obligations through the use of internally generated cash, the sale of debt and or equity, and the conversion of debt to equity, though there can be no assurance that this will be the case.

Going Concern

 

Our financial statements were prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. With the exception of the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we have incurred losses from operations since inception, and have an accumulated deficit of $110,645,559 as of November 30, 2023, compared to $108,879,446 as of May 31, 2023. We had a working capital deficit of $14,048,482 as of November 30, 2023, compared to a working capital deficit of $11,749,019 as of May 31, 2023. The report of our independent auditors for the year ended May 31, 2023 contained a going concern qualification.

 

Our ability to continue as a going concern must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, and complications frequently encountered by early-stage companies.

 

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to generate sufficient cash from operations to meet our cash needs and finance our ongoing operations. There can be no assurance that cash generated by our future operations will be adequate to meet our needs.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have 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 that are material to investors.

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

Management uses various estimates and assumptions in preparing our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Accounting estimates that are the most important to the presentation of our results of operations and financial condition, and which require the greatest use of judgment by management, are designated as our critical accounting estimates. We have the following critical accounting estimates:

 

 

Estimates and assumptions regarding the deductibility of expenses for purposes of Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code: Management evaluates the expenses of its manufacturing and retail operations and makes certain judgments regarding the deductibility of various expenses under Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code based on its interpretation of this regulation and its subjective assumptions about the categorization of these expenses.

 

 

 

 

Estimates and assumptions used in the valuation of derivative liabilities: Management utilizes a lattice model to estimate the fair value of derivative liabilities. The model includes subjective assumptions that can materially affect the fair value estimates.

 

 

 

 

Estimates and assumptions used in the valuation of intangible assets. In order to value our intangible assets, management prepares multi-year projections of revenue, costs of goods sold, gross margin, operating expenses, taxes and after tax margins relating to the operations associated with the intangible assets being valued. These projections are based on the estimates of management at the time they are prepared and include subjective assumptions regarding industry growth and other matters.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

Accounting standards promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) are subject to change. Changes in such standards may have an impact on our future financial statements. The following are a summary of recent accounting developments.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In computing the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2, current U.S. GAAP requires the performance of procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of assets and liabilities (including unrecognized assets and liabilities) following the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Instead, the amendments under this ASU require the goodwill impairment test to be performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The ASU became effective for us on January 1, 2020. The amendments in this ASU were applied on a prospective basis. During the year ended May 31, 2020, the Company recorded an impairment of goodwill in the amount of $25,185,003 pursuant to ASU No. 2017-04.

 

43

 

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Stock Compensation - Scope of Modification Accounting, which provides guidance on which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. The ASU requires that an entity account for the effects of a modification unless the fair value (or calculated value or intrinsic value, if used), vesting conditions and classification (as equity or liability) of the modified award are all the same as for the original award immediately before the modification. The ASU became effective for us on January 1, 2018 and is applied to an award modified on or after the adoption date. Adoption of ASU 2017-09 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

 

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). The amendments in Part I of this update change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments. As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option) no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value as a result of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments, the amendments require entities that present earnings per share (EPS) in accordance with Topic 260 to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS. Convertible instruments with embedded conversion options that have down round features are now subject to the specialized guidance for contingent beneficial conversion features (in Subtopic 470-20, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options), including related EPS guidance (in Topic 260). The amendments in Part II of this update recharacterize the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of Topic 480 that now are presented as pending content in the Codification, to a scope exception.

 

These amendments do not have an accounting effect. For public business entities, the amendments in Part I of this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period.

 

There are various other updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk.

 

This item is not applicable as we are currently considered a smaller reporting company.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, among other things, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Andrew Glashow, our Chief Executive Officer, and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. The Company believes it now has an adequate number of trained personnel to resolve any segregation of duties deficiencies. Based on the evaluation, Mr. Glashow concluded that:

 

 

We do not have an independent body to oversee our internal controls over financial reporting due to our limited resources.

 

We plan to rectify these weaknesses by hiring additional accounting personnel once we have additional resources to do so.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
