PART I

Item 1. Business

General

Sugarmade, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “we”, “us” or “the/our Company”the “Company”) is a publicly-traded companywas originally incorporated on June 5, 1986 in California as Lab, Inc., and later that month, on June 24, 1986 changed its name to Software Professionals, Inc. On May 21, 1996, the Company changed its name to Enlighten Software Solutions, Inc. On June 20, 2007, Enlighten Software Solutions, Inc. was incorporated in Delaware for the statepurpose of merging with Enlighten Software Solutions, Inc. a California corporation so as to effect a redomicile to Delaware. Our previous legalOn January 24, 2008, the Company changed its name wasto Diversified Opportunities, Inc. On May 9, 2011 we closed on a Share Exchange Agreement with Sugarmade, Inc., a California corporation founded in 2010, and on June 24, 2011 changed our name to Sugarmade, Inc.

On October 24, 2014 we acquired SWC Group, Inc., a California corporation doing business as, CarryOutSupplies.com (“Carry Out Supplies”).

Our Company Sugarmade, Inc. operates much of its business activities through our subsidiaries, SWC Group, Inc., a California corporation (“SWC’’), NUG Avenue, Inc., a California corporation and 70% owned subsidiary of the Company (“NUG Avenue”), and Lemon Glow Company, Inc., a California corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Lemon Glow”). Sugarmade, Inc. was founded in 2010. In 2014, CarryOutSupplies.com was acquired by Sugarmade, Inc., creatingSugarRush a California Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company as it is today.(“SugarRush”), and SugarRush 5058, a California Limited Liability Company and 66.66% owned subsidiary of the company.

Shares of our common stock are quoted on the OTC Markets, which is a quotation system for early-stage and developing companies.Pink tier of OTC Markets. Our trading symbol is “SGMD”. Our corporate website is www.Sugarmade.com.www.sugarmade.com.

As of the date of this filing, we are involved in several business sectors and business ventures:

Paper and paper-based products: The supply of consumabledisposable products to the quick-service restaurant sub-sector of the restaurant industry, and as an importer and distributor of non-medical personal protection equipment to business and consumers, via our CarryOutSupplies.com subsidiary (“Carryout Supplies”). CarryoutCarry Out Supplies subsidiary. Carry Out Supplies is a producer and wholesaler of custom printed and generic supplies, servicinghas serviced more than 2,0003,000 quick-service restaurants.restaurants, since inception. The primary products are plastic cold cups, paper coffee cups, yogurt cups, ice cream cups, cup lids, cup sleeves, edible packaging, food containers, soup containers, plastic spoons, and similar products for this market sector. This subsidiary, which was formed in 2009, was recently expanded to also offer non-medical personal protective equipment.2009.

NUG Avenue, Inc. investment into licensed cannabis delivery in Los Angeles area markets. During February 2021, we became a majority owner of NUG Avenue, Inc., a California corporation (“NUG Avenue”), which operates a licensed and regulated cannabis delivery service out of Lynwood, California, serving the greater Los Angeles Metropolitan area (the “Lynwood Operations”). The Company currently owns a majority stake of seventy percent (70%) of NUG Avenue’s Lynwood Operations and holds first rights of refusal on NUG Avenue’s business expansion relative to the cannabis marketplace. By way of our capital injection made into NUG Avenue and by via our 70% ownership position, we consolidate and recognize 100% of the revenues and 70% of profits or loss generated by NUG Ave for its Lynwood Operation.

We believe our investment into NUG Avenue will allow us to expand our presence into the licensed and regulated cannabis marketplace. The California cannabis market continues its rapid growth, with the Southern California sub-market representing the world’s largest single cannabis marketplace. According to the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration, the most recently reported quarterly period posted a significant increase in cannabis tax compared to the year-ago period. Much of this growth was driven by increased use of delivery services, as consumers are increasingly relying on home delivery for many goods, including cannabis.

Cannabis products delivery service and sales: services:As a joint owner in Following the Budcars licensedend of the COVID cannabis delivery service brand (“Budcars” orboom, along with a challenging cannabis retail climate from inflation, the “Budcars Brand”). Budcars operatesblack market, increased marketing expenses, and the cannabis excise tax moving from distribution to retail, the company has decided to reduce investments in retail operations. The company made this decision as we see more promising opportunities to increase shareholder equity by pivoting the business strategy to deploy capital to invest in cannabis real estate, cultivation, and wholesale sectors vs. cannabis retail operations.

After discussions with ECGI, Inc. and the management of Nug Avenue, we could not find a licensed cannabis delivery servicepath to short term profitability. The company then decided to cease investing in Nug Avenue, which ultimately led to Nug Avenue discontinuing operations.

As part of pivoting our business strategy, the Sacramento, California area. During early 2020, the Company entered into an agreementcompany negotiated with Indigo Dye Group Corp. (“Indigo”) to acquire a 40%exchange our 32% stake in Budcars for a stake in a distribution and indoor cultivation company in Santa Rosa, California. The company has already executed a share exchange agreement with Indigo. However, the Budcars Brandfinal documents and in the Sacramento delivery operations. Under the terms of the agreement with Indigo, Sugarmade acquired an optionnew company are still being finalized. The company expects to purchase an additional 30% interest in Budcars. Upon exercisecomplete the documents and announce the transition to new business post filing of this option, the Company would acquire a controlling interest in Indigo. As of June 30, 2021, the option has not yet been exercised and the Company’s stake in Budcars was at 40%. Starting on October 1, 2020, the Company plans to open new locations via purchasing equity in other Brand/Franchises to cover delivery for the entire California. Therefore, the Company is not likely at this time to exercise its option to acquire the additional 30% interest in Indigo. In addition, the Company is no longer involved in day-to-day operations of Indigo and going forward, the Company intends to pursue cannabis delivery independent of Indigo. As of October 1, 2020, the Company ceased to have control over the day-to-day business of Indigo and it was deconsolidated and recorded as an investment in nonconsolidated affiliate at its $505,449 estimated fair value and changed to equity method of accounting. Pursuant to the terms of the Indigo agreement, if the Company determines, in its discretion not to continue to make monthly payments, its 40% ownership interest in Indigo will be decreased according to the payment then made. As of December 31, 2020, the Company made $59,370 additional payments, and hold approximately 32% of the ownership of Indigo. As of June 30, 2021, the Company recorded equity method investment in affiliates at $441,407, net with $123,412 loss from equity method investment.10K.

Selected cannabis and hemp projects: On May 12, 2021, SugarMade, Inc.the Company entered into ana Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger, as amended (the “Merger Agreement”) by and between Lemon Glow Corporation, a California corporation (“Lemon Glow”), Carnaby Spot Bay Corp, a California corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), Lemon Glow Company and Ryan Santiago (the “Shareholder Representative”),as shareholder representative, pursuant to which on May 25, 2021 and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub mergedwould merge with and into Lemon Glow, with Lemon Glow being the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). As a resultUpon the closing of the Merger,merger, Lemon Glow became a wholly-owned subsidiarywas merged into the Company. The purpose of the Company.transactions was to establish a licensed and permitted entity which Sugarmade would cultivate, manufacture, and distribute cannabis to the California markets. At the time of the transactions, none of Lemon Glow, Merger Sub, or Sugarmade was permitted and licensed for such activities.

Table of Contents

On October 28, 2021, Lemon Glow obtained a conditional Use Permit (UP) number from the Community Development Department of the County of Lake, California, which the Company believes is an important step towards the conditional UP for commercial cannabis cultivation at its property. The issuance of the conditional UP number by the County of Lake allows the Company to proceed with the state cannabis cultivation license application, and potentially obtain certain applicable permits, such as from the Department of Cannabis Control, Department of Food and Agriculture, Department of Pesticide Regulation, Department of Fish and Wildlife, The State Water Resources Control Board, Board of Forestry and Fire Protection, Central Valley or North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board, Department of Public Health, and Department of Consumer Affairs, as may be required. The Company believes that obtaining the conditional UP number by the County of Lake could be the first step toward full approval to cultivate cannabis on up to 32 acres out of the total 640 acres of the property.

As of the date of this filing, Sugarmade is working diligently on satisfying the conditions required by the County of Lake to allow the Company to cultivate cannabis. It is the Company’s intention to begin such activities at the earliest time possible, assuming permits are ultimately issued. Upon issuance, the company will determine the amount of acreages to grow initially based on market demand and pre-orders. However, no such license or permits have yet been issued, and applications are still pending. There can be no assurance that any such license or permits will be issued in the near future or at all.

Once licensing and permits are issued, the company plans to divide the 32 canopy grow acres between four separate grow areas. These separate grow areas will allow the company to start with a single area and expand with demand. While waiting for demand to rise, dividing into separate grow areas will also provide an opportunity to lease the other grow areas to 3rd party or through partnership under Managed Service Agreement to generate additional revenue for the company.

We believe the market demand will increase upon federal legalization allowing for interstate commerce of cannabis. Opening the doors for out of state licensees to purchase California grown cannabis flowers.

Once fully completed, we estimate the output of 32 acres of canopy, will have the capacity of 64 tons of dry flower or 300 tons of fresh frozen, requiring approximately 300,000 sq ft of storage space. We will continue to make plans to build more storage space while concurrent with the licensing process.

Government Regulations

 

There can be no assurance of continued inaction by U.S. federal authorities relative to our operations. Our business is at least partially focused on cannabis, hemp, and associated products and the legal sales of cannabis permitted under California law. Cannabis is a Schedule 1 illegal drug under the Controlled Substances Act, 21 U.S.C. § 811 (hereafter referred to as the “CSA”). As is discussed below, Hemp containing less than 0.3 percent THC is not a Schedule 1 drug under the CSA. Any actions by U.S. federal agencies could have a significant negative impact on our abilities to generate revenue and/or profits.

As of the date of this filing, thirty-five states, the District of Columbia, and four U.S. Territories currently have laws broadly legalizing cannabis in some form for either medicinal or recreational use governed by state-specific laws and regulations. Although legalized in some states, cannabis, and hemp containing more than 0.3 percent THC are “Schedule 1” drugs under the CSA and are illegal under federal law. Active enforcement of the current CSA regarding cannabis and hemp containing more than 0.3 percent THC may directly and adversely affect our revenues and profits. The risk of strict enforcement of the CSA in light of Congressional activity, judicial holdings, and stated federal policy remain uncertain.

On August 29, 2013, The Department of Justice set out its prosecutorial priorities in light of various states legalizing cannabis for medicinal and/or recreational use. The “Cole Memorandum” provided that when states have implemented strong and effective regulatory and enforcement systems to control the cultivation, distribution, sale, and possession of cannabis, conduct in compliance with those laws and regulations is less likely to threaten the federal priorities. Indeed, a robust system may affirmatively address those priorities by, for example, implementing effective measures to prevent diversion of cannabis outside of the regulated system and to other states, prohibiting access to cannabis by minors, and replacing an illicit cannabis trade that funds criminal enterprises with a tightly regulated market in which revenues are tracked and accounted for. In those circumstances, consistent with the traditional allocation of federal-state efforts in this area, the Cole Memorandum provided that enforcement of state law by state and local law enforcement and regulatory bodies should remain the primary means of addressing cannabis-related activity. If state enforcement efforts are not sufficiently robust to protect against the harms set forth above, the federal government may seek to challenge the regulatory structure itself in addition to continuing to bring individual enforcement actions, including criminal prosecutions, focused on those harms.

On January 4, 2018, Attorney General Jeff Sessions issued a memorandum for all United States Attorneys concerning cannabis enforcement under the CSA. Mr. Sessions rescinded all previous prosecutorial guidance issued by the Department of Justice regarding cannabis, including the August 29, 2013 “Cole Memorandum”.

In rescinding the Cole Memorandum, Mr. Sessions stated that U.S. Attorneys must decide whether or not to pursue prosecution of cannabis activity based upon factors including the seriousness of the crime, the deterrent effect of criminal prosecution, and the cumulative impact of particular crimes on the community. Mr. Sessions reiterated that the cultivation, distribution, and possession of marijuana continues to be a crime under the U.S. Controlled Substances Act.

On March 23, 2018, President Donald J. Trump signed into law a $1.3 trillion-dollar spending bill that included an amendment known as “Rohrabacher-Blumenauer,” which prohibits the Justice Department from using federal funds to prevent certain states “from implementing their own State laws that authorize the use, distribution, possession or cultivation of medical cannabis.”

On December 20, 2018, President Donald J. Trump signed into law the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018, otherwise known as the “Farm Bill”. Prior to its passage, hemp, a member of the cannabis family, was classified as a Schedule 1 controlled substance, and so illegal under the federal CSA.

With the passage of the Farm Bill, hemp cultivation containing less than 0.3 percent THC is now broadly permitted. The Farm Bill explicitly allows the transfer of hemp-derived products across state lines for commercial or other purposes. It also puts no restrictions on the sale, transport, or possession of hemp-derived products, so long as those items are produced in a manner consistent with the law.

Under Section 10113 of the Farm Bill, hemp cannot contain more than 0.3 percent THC. THC refers to the chemical compound found in cannabis that produces the psychoactive “high” associated with cannabis. Any cannabis plant that contains more than 0.3 percent THC would be considered non-hemp cannabis—or marijuana—under the CSA and would not be legally protected under this new legislation and would be treated as an illegal Schedule 1 drug.

-2--3-
Table of Contents

Additionally, there will be significant, shared state-federal regulatory power over hemp cultivation and production. Under Section 10113 of the Farm Bill, state departments of agriculture must consult with the state’s governor and chief law enforcement officer to devise a plan that must be submitted to the Secretary of the United States Department of Agriculture (hereafter referred to as the “USDA”). A state’s plan to license and regulate hemp can only commence once the Secretary of USDA approves that state’s plan. In states opting not to devise a hemp regulatory program, USDA will construct a regulatory program under which hemp cultivators in those states must apply for licenses and comply with a federally run program. This system of shared regulatory programming is similar to options states had in other policy areas such as health insurance marketplaces under Affordable Care Act, or workplace safety plans under Occupational Health and Safety Act—both of which had federally-run systems for states opting not to set up their own systems.

The Farm Bill outlines actions that are considered violations of federal hemp law (including such activities as cultivating without a license or producing cannabis with more than 0.3 percent THC). The Farm Bill details possible punishments for such violations, pathways for violators to become compliant, and even which activities qualify as felonies under the law, such as repeated offenses.

One of the goals of the previous 2014 Farm Bill was to generate and protect research into hemp. The 2018 Farm Bill continues this effort. Section 7605 re-extends the protections for hemp research and the conditions under which such research can and should be conducted. Further, section 7501 of the Farm Bill extends hemp research by including hemp under the Critical Agricultural Materials Act. This provision recognizes the importance, diversity, and opportunity of the plant and the products that can be derived from it, but also recognizes that there is still a lot to learn about hemp and its products from commercial and market perspectives.

In late January 2021, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said lawmakers are in the process of merging various cannabis bills, including his own legalization legislation. He is working to enact reform in this Congressional session. This would include the Marijuana Freedom and Opportunity Act, which would federally de-schedule cannabis, reinvest tax revenue into communities most affected by the drug war, and fund efforts to expunge prior cannabis records. It is likely that the Marijuana Opportunity, Reinvestment, and Expungement (MORE) Act would be incorporated.

Other federal legislation under review for possible submission includes the SAFE Banking Act (or Secure and Fair Enforcement Act), a bill that would allow cannabis companies to access the federally insured banking system and capital markets without the risk of federal enforcement action, and the Strengthening the Tenth Amendment Through Entrusting States Act (or STATES Act), a bill that seeks protection for businesses and individuals in states that have legalized and comply with state laws).

Our operations may also be affected by regulations under the Bank Secrecy Act. Enforced by FinCEN, the act requires us to report currency transactions in excess of $10,000, including identification of the customer by name and social security number, to the IRS. This regulation also requires us to report certain suspicious activity, including any transaction that exceeds $5,000 that we know, suspect, or have reason to believe involves funds from illegal activity or is designed to evade federal regulations or reporting requirements and to verify sources of funds. Substantial penalties can be imposed against us if we fail to comply with this regulation. If we fail to comply with these laws and regulations, the imposition of a substantial penalty could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Active enforcement of the current CSA on cannabis and hemp containing more than 0.3 percent THC may directly and adversely affect our revenues and profits. The risk of strict enforcement of the CSA considering Congressional activity, judicial holdings, and stated federal policy remains uncertain.

As a result of the conflicting state and federal laws regarding cannabis, our investments and operations of cannabis businesses in the U.S. are subject to inconsistent laws and regulations. Laws and regulations affecting the cannabis industry are constantly changing, which could detrimentally affect our operations. Local, state, and federal cannabis laws and regulations are broad in scope and subject to evolving interpretations, which could require us to incur substantial costs associated with compliance or alter our business plan. In addition, violations of these laws, or allegations of such violations, could disrupt our business and result in a material adverse effect on our operations. It is also possible that regulations may be enacted in the future that will be directly applicable to our business. These ever-changing regulations could even affect federal tax policies that may make it difficult to claim tax deductions on our returns. We cannot predict the nature of any future laws, regulations, interpretations, or applications, nor can we determine what effect additional governmental regulations or administrative policies and procedures, when and if promulgated, could have on our business.

Any changes relative to the above areas, could significantly negatively impact our abilities to generate both revenue and profits.

Environmental - Climate Change, Wild Fires, and Drought Conditions

Hemp and cannabis cultivation can be impacted by weather patterns and these unpredictable weather patterns may affect our operations in that our supplier might not be able to fully our operations on a consistent basis. Severe weather, including drought, hail and excessive heat, can destroy a cannabis crop, which could result in us having no cannabis to sell to our customers. These situations could substantially affect our ability to generate revenue and profits.

In the future, our operations could also be affected by global climate change. Earth’s climate has changed over the past century. The atmosphere and oceans have warmed, sea levels have risen, and glaciers and ice sheets have decreased in size. The best available evidence indicates that greenhouse gas emissions from human activities are the leading cause. Continuing increases in greenhouse gases will produce further warming and other changes in Earth’s physical environment and ecosystems. While our business operations have seen no adverse effects from climate change, such issues could affect our operations in the future. Over the coming years, we plan to closely monitor weather conditions to determine how changes could affect our future operations and plans for corporate growth.

We are also subject to various federal, state, local and non-U.S. laws and regulations relating to environmental protection, including the discharge, treatment, storage, disposal and remediation of hazardous substances and wastes. We continually assess our compliance status and management of environmental matters to ensure our operations are in substantial compliance with all applicable environmental laws and regulations. Investigation, remediation, operation and maintenance costs associated with environmental compliance and management of sites are a normal, recurring part of our operations. These costs often are allowable costs under our contracts with the U.S. government. It is reasonably possible that continued environmental compliance could have a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition or cash flows if additional work requirements or more stringent clean-up standards are imposed by regulators, new areas of soil and groundwater contamination are discovered and/or expansions of work scope are prompted by the results of investigations.

The 2021 wildfire season in California experienced an unusually early start amid an ongoing drought and historically low rainfall and reservoir levels. According the State of California Division of Forestry, the long-term trend is that wildfires in the state are increasing due to climate change in California. In terms of the amount of fires burned, the 2021 season has been outpacing the 2020 season, which itself was the most significant season in the state’s recorded history. According to the State, as of July 11, 2021 more than three times as many acres have burned compared to the previous year through that date, with drought, extreme heat, and reduced snowpack contributing to the severity of the fires.[ The state also faces an increased risk of post-wildfire landslides. While we have seen no negative effects from such wildfires, our business operations could be affected by such conditions in the future.

Our future operations could also be affected by State of California and/or local governmental restrictions on water usage. Droughts are a recurring feature of California’s climate and are becoming increasingly severe due to climate change. According to the State of California. In the last century, the most significant statewide droughts occurred during the six-year period from 1929 to 1934, the two-year period from 1976 to 1977, the six-year period from 1987 to 1992, and the five-year period from 2012 to 2016. The 2012-2016 drought was one of extreme proportions, with record-high temperatures and record-low levels of snowpack and precipitation. In 2021, California finds itself yet again in a drought, with water conditions at the end of the wet season far below normal for the second year in a row. Continued drought in the California could affect our future business in that our suppliers may not be able to provide products for us to sell to our customers, which would affect our ability to generate revenues and produce profits. Drought conditions could also impact our abilities to cultivate cannabis in the future in that we may be unable to obtain adequate water rights or access to suitable water to cultivate future cannabis crops, if we decided in the future to attempt cannabis cultivation, although the Company currently has not such plans.

There can be no assurance that global climate changes and ongoing, or worsening, drought conditions and/or issue relative to wildfires within the state of California will not negatively impact our operations during future periods.

As a result, such issues could severely impact our ability to generate revenues and profits.

The report of our independent registered public accounting firm expresses substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The report of our independent registered public accounting firm expresses substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our auditors, L&L CPAs,WWC P.C., have indicated in their report on the Company’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021,2022, that conditions exist that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern due to our recurring losses from operations and substantial decline in our working capital. A “going concern” opinion could impair our ability to finance our operations through the sale of equity, incurring debt, or other financing alternatives. Our ability to continue as a going concern will depend upon the availability and terms of future funding, continued growth, improved operating margins and our ability to profitably meet service commitments. If we are unable to achieve these goals, our business would be jeopardized and the Company may not be able to continue. If we ceased operations, it is likely that all of our investors would lose their investment.

We face risks associated with strategic acquisitions.

Our business strategy includes strategically acquisitions of businesses and assets, some of which may be material. We plan to investigate and acquire strategic businesses with the potential to be accretive to earnings, increase our market penetration, brand strength and our market position or enhancement our existing product offerings. There can be no assurance that we will be able to identify or successfully complete transactions with suitable acquisition candidates in the future.

These acquisitions may involve a number of financial, accounting, managerial, operational, legal, compliance and other risks and challenges, including the following, any of which could adversely affect our results of operations:

Any acquired business could under-perform relative to our expectations and the price that we paid for it, or not perform in accordance with our anticipated timetable;
We may incur or assume significant debt in connection with our acquisitions;
Acquisitions could cause our results of operations to differ from our own or the investment community’s expectations in any given period, or over the long term; and
Acquisitions could create demands on our management that we may be unable to effectively address, or for which we may incur additional costs.

Additionally, if we were to undertake a substantial acquisition, the acquisition would likely need to be financed in part through additional financing from banks, through possible public offerings or private placements of debt or equity securities or through other arrangements. There can be no assurance that the necessary acquisition financing would be available to us on acceptable terms if and when required.

Acquisitions could also result in dilutive issuances of equity securities or the incurrence of debt, which could adversely affect our operating results. We may also unknowingly inherit liabilities from acquired businesses or assets that arise after the acquisition and that are not adequately covered by indemnities. Following any business acquisition, we could experience difficulty in integrating personnel, operations, financial and other systems, and in retaining key employees and customers. In addition, if an acquired business fails to meet our expectations, our operating results, business and financial position may suffer.

In addition, a significant portion of the purchase price of companies we acquire may be allocated to acquired goodwill and other intangible assets, which must be assessed for impairment at least annually. We may record goodwill and other intangible assets on our consolidated balance sheet in connection with our acquisitions. If we are not able to realize the value of these assets, we may be required to incur charges relating to the impairment of these assets, which could materially impact our financial condition and results of operations.

We may have difficulties integrating acquisitions or identifying new acquisitions.

A major part of our strategy is to grow through acquisition. However, we may be unable to identify and consummate additional acquisitions or may be unable to successfully integrate and manage the product lines or businesses that we have recently acquired or may acquire in the future. In addition, we may be unable to achieve a substantial portion of any anticipated cost savings from acquisitions or other anticipated benefits in the timeframe we anticipate, or at all. Moreover, any acquired product lines or businesses may require a greater than anticipated amount of trade, promotional and capital spending. Acquisitions involve numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of the operations, technologies, services and products of the acquired companies, personnel turnover and the diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns. Any inability by us to integrate and manage any product lines or businesses that we have recently acquired or may acquire in the future in a timely and efficient manner, any inability to achieve a substantial portion of any anticipated cost savings or other anticipated benefits from these acquisitions in the time frame we anticipate or any unanticipated required increases in trade, promotional or capital spending could adversely affect our business, consolidated financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. Moreover, future acquisitions by us could result in our incurring substantial additional indebtedness, being exposed to contingent liabilities or incurring the impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets, all of which could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.

We may need additional capital in the future, which could dilute the ownership of current shareholders or we may be unable to secure additional funding in the future or to obtain such funding on favorable terms.

Historically, we have raised equity capital, including debt convertible into equity capital, to support and expand our operations. To the extent that we raise additional equity capital, existing shareholders will experience a dilution in the voting power and ownership of their shares of Common Stock, and earnings per share, if any, would be negatively impacted. Our inability to use our equity securities to finance our operations could materially limit our growth. Any borrowings made to finance operations could make us more vulnerable to a downturn in our operating results, a downturn in economic conditions, or increases in interest rates on borrowings that are subject to interest rate fluctuations. The amount and timing of such additional financing needs will vary principally depending on the timing of new product launches, investments and/or acquisitions, and the amount of cash flow from our operations. If our resources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we may seek to issue additional equity or debt securities or obtain a credit facility. If our cash flow from operations is insufficient to meet any debt service requirements, we could be required to sell additional equity securities, refinance our obligations, or dispose of assets in order to meet debt service requirements. There can be no assurance that any financing will be available to us when needed or will be available on terms acceptable to us. Our failure to obtain sufficient financing on favorable terms and conditions could have a material adverse effect on our growth prospects and our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Uncertainty of profitability

Our business strategy may result in increased volatility of revenues, loses and/or earnings. As we will only develop a limited number of products at a time, our overall success will depend on a limited number of products, which may cause variability and unsteady profits and losses depending on the products and/or services offered and their market acceptance.

Our revenues and our profitability may be adversely affected by economic conditions and changes in the market for our products. Our business is also subject to general economic risks that could adversely impact the results of operations and financial condition.

Because of the anticipated nature of the products that we offer and attempt to develop, it is difficult to accurately forecast revenues and operating results and these items could fluctuate in the future due to a number of factors. These factors may include, among other things, the following:

Our ability to raise sufficient capital to take advantage of opportunities and generate sufficient revenues to cover expenses.
Our ability to source strong opportunities with sufficient risk adjusted returns.
Our ability to manage our capital and liquidity requirements based on changing market conditions.
The amount and timing of operating and other costs and expenses.
The nature and extent of competition from other companies that may reduce market share and create pressure on pricing and investment return expectations.

We cannot guarantee that we will succeed in achieving our goals, and our failure to do so would have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results

Some of business initiatives in the hydroponic sector are new and are only in early stages of commercialization. As is typical in a new and rapidly evolving industry, demand and market acceptance for recently introduced products and services are subject to a high level of uncertainty and risk. Because the market for our Company is new and evolving, it is difficult to predict with any certainty the size of this market and its growth rate, if any. We cannot guarantee that a market for our Company will develop or that demand for our products will emerge or be sustainable. If the market fails to develop, develops more slowly than expected or becomes saturated with competitors, our business, financial condition and operating results would be materially adversely affected.

Our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected by global health epidemics, including the recent COVID-19 outbreak.

Outbreaks of epidemic, pandemic, or contagious diseases such as COVID-19, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. The spread of COVID-19 from China to other countries has resulted in the World Health Organization declaring the outbreak of COVID-19 as a global pandemic. The slow-down in the global economy and the reduced levels of international and domestic travel experienced since the beginning of January would affect our business adversely. The Any resulting financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The extent to which the COVID-19 impacts our results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the coronavirus and the actions taken globally to contain the coronavirus or treat its impact, among others. Existing insurance coverage may not provide protection for all costs that may arise from all such possible events. We are still assessing our business operations and the impact COVID-19 may have on our results and financial condition, but there can be no assurance that this analysis will enable us to avoid part or all of any impact from the spread of COVID-19 or its consequences, including downturns in business sentiment generally or in our sector in particular.

We have incurred losses since our inception, have yet to achieve profitable operations and anticipate that we will continue to incur losses for the foreseeable future.

Even if we obtain more customers or increase sales to our existing customers, there is no guarantee we will be able to generate a profit. Because we are a small company and have limited capital, we must limit our products and services. Because we will be limiting our marketing activities, we may not be able to attract enough customers to buy our products to operate profitably. Further, we are subject to raw material pricing which can erode the profitability of our products and put additional negative pressure on profitability. If we cannot operate profitably, we may have to suspend or cease operations.

For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022 we incurred an operating loss of $11,072,926. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, we incurred an operating loss of $5,926,134. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, we incurred an operating loss of $21,534,571. At June 30, 20212022 we had an accumulated deficit of $74,364,466.$85,437,392. Although we have generated revenues, they are insufficient to make the Company profitable. We plan to increase our expenses associated with the development of our business. There is no assurance we will be able to derive revenues from the development of our business to successfully achieve positive cash flow or that our business will be successful. If we achieve profitability, we may be unable to sustain or increase profits on a quarterly or annual basis.

We do not have sufficient cash on hand.

As of June 30, 2021,2022, we had $1,396,944$161,014 cash on hand. These cash resources are not sufficient for us to execute our business plan. If we do not generate sufficient cash from our intended financing activities and sales, we will be unable to continue our operations. We estimate that within the next 12 months we will need at least $5,000,000 in cash from either investors or operations. While we intend to engage in several equity or debt financings, there is no assurance that these will actually occur. Nor can we assure our shareholders that we will not be required to obtain additional financing on terms that are dilutive of their interests. You should recognize that if we are unable to generate sufficient revenues or obtain debt or equity financing, we will not be able to earn profits and may not be able to continue operations.

The success of our new and existing products and services is uncertain.

We expect to continue to commit significant resources and capital to develop and market existing and new products, services and enhancements. These products and services are relatively untested, and there is no assurance that we will achieve market acceptance for these products and services, or other new products and services that we may offer in the future. Moreover, these and other new products and services may face significant competition with new and existing competitors. In addition, new products, services and enhancements may pose a variety of technical challenges and require us to attract additional qualified employees. The failure to successfully develop and market these new products, services or enhancements could seriously harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we are subject to raw material pricing which can erode the profitability of our products and put additional negative pressure on profitability. Moreover, if we fail to accurately project demand for our new or existing products, we may encounter problems of overproduction or underproduction which would materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, as well as damage our reputation and brand.

Third-party suppliers could fail to fulfill our orders for parts used to assemble our products, which would disrupt our business, increase our costs, harm our reputation, and potentially cause us to lose our market.

We depend on international third-party suppliers, including in The People’s Republic of China, for materials used to assemble our products. Changing federal tariffs could adversely affect our international third-party suppliers. We cannot predict the nature of any future tariffs, laws, regulations, interpretations or applications, nor can we determine what effect additional governmental regulations or administrative policies and procedures, when and if promulgated, could have on our suppliers and our business. These suppliers could increase prices to us, fail to produce products to our specifications or in a workmanlike manner and may not deliver the material or products on a timely basis. Our suppliers may also have to obtain inventories of the necessary parts and tools for production. Any change in our suppliers’ approach to tariffs or resolving production issues could disrupt our ability to fulfill orders and could also disrupt our business due to delays in finding new suppliers, providing specifications and testing initial production. Such disruptions in our business and/or delays in fulfilling orders would materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, as well as damage our reputation and brand.

Even if we expand our customer base, there is no assurance that we will continue to make a profit.

Our revenue growth has been derived from the sale of our products. Our success and the planned growth and expansion of our business depend on us achieving greater and broader acceptance of our products and expanding our customer base. There can be no assurance that customers will purchase our products or that we will continue to expand our customer base. If we are unable to effectively market or expand our product offerings, we will be unable to grow and expand our business or implement our business strategy. Even if we obtain more customers, there is no guarantee that we will be able to continue to generate a profit. Because we have limited capital, we may be required to limit our products and services. Because we will be limiting our marketing activities, we may not be able to attract enough customers to buy our products to operate profitably. If we cannot market our new and existing products and services profitably, we may have to limit or suspend or cease operations.

Even if we are able to expand our business operations, we may be unable to successfully manage our future growth.

If we are able to continue expanding our operations, we may experience periods of rapid growth that will require additional resources. Any such growth could place increased strain on our management, operational, financial and other resources, and we will need to train, motivate, and manage employees, as well as attract management, sales, finance and accounting, international, technical, and other professionals. In addition, we will need to expand the scope of our infrastructure and develop further physical resources. Any failure to expand these areas and implement appropriate procedures and controls in an efficient manner and at a pace consistent with the business objectives could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Our inability to effectively manage our growth could harm our business and materially and adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

Our strategy envisions growing our business. We plan to expand our product, sales, administrative and marketing operations. Any growth in or expansion of our business is likely to continue to place a strain on our management and administrative resources, infrastructure and systems. As with other growing businesses, we expect that we will need to further refine and expand our business development capabilities, our systems and processes and our access to financing sources. We also will need to hire, train, supervise, and manage new employees. These processes are time consuming and expensive, will increase management responsibilities and will divert management attention.

If we do not successfully generate additional products and services, or if such products and services are developed but not successfully commercialized, we could lose revenue opportunities.

Our future success depends, in part, on our ability to expand our product and service offerings. To that end we have engaged in the process of identifying new product opportunities to provide additional products and related services to our customers. The processes of identifying and commercializing new products is complex and uncertain, and if we fail to accurately predict customers’ changing needs and emerging trends, our business could be harmed. We have already and may have to continue to commit significant resources to commercializing new products before knowing whether our investments will result in products the market will accept. Furthermore, we may not execute successfully on commercializing those products because of errors in product planning or timing, technical hurdles that we fail to overcome in a timely fashion, or a lack of appropriate resources. This could result in competitors providing those solutions before we do and a reduction in net sales and earnings.

The success of new products depends on several factors, including proper new product definition, timely completion, and introduction of these products, differentiation of new products from those of our competitors, and market acceptance of these products. There can be no assurance that we will successfully identify additional new product opportunities, develop and bring new products to market in a timely manner, or achieve market acceptance of our products or that products and technologies developed by others will not render our products or technologies obsolete or noncompetitive.

Our business may suffer if we are unable to attract or retain talented personnel.

Our success will depend in large measure on the abilities, expertise, judgment, discretion, integrity and good faith of Management, as well as other personnel. We have a small management team, and the loss of a key individual or our inability to attract suitably qualified replacements or additional staff could adversely affect our business. Our success also depends on the ability of Management to form and maintain key commercial relationships within the marketplace. No assurance can be given that key personnel will continue their association or employment with us or that replacement personnel with comparable skills will be found. If we are unable to attract and retain key personnel and additional employees, our business may be adversely affected. We do not maintain key-man life insurance on any of our executive employees.

The loss of key management personnel could adversely affect our business

We depend on the continued services of our executive officers and senior management team as they work closely with independent associate leaders and are responsible for our day-to-day operations. Our success depends in part on our ability to retain our executive officers, to compensate our executive officers at attractive levels, and to continue to attract additional qualified individuals to our management team. Although we have entered into employment agreements with our senior management team, and do not believe that any of them are planning to leave or retire in the near term, we cannot assure you that our senior managers will remain with us. The loss or limitation of the services of any of our executive officers or members of our senior management team, or the inability to attract additional qualified management personnel, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or independent associate relations.

The lack of available and cost-effective directors and officer’s insurance coverage in our industry may cause us to be unable to attract and retain qualified executives, and this may result in our inability to further develop our business.

Our business depends on attracting independent directors, executives and senior management to advance our business plans. We currently do not have directors and officer’s insurance to protect our directors, officers and the company against to possible third-party claims. This is due to the significant lack availability of such policies in the cannabis industry at reasonably competitive prices. As a result, the Company and our executive directors and officers are susceptible to liability claims arising by third parties, and as a result, we may be unable to attract and retain qualified independent directors and executive management causing the development of our business plans to be impeded as a result.

If we fail to maintain satisfactory relationships with our larger customers, our business may be harmed.

We do not have and are unlikely to enter into long-term fixed quantity supply agreements with our customers. Due to competition or other factors, we could lose future business from our customers, either partially or completely. The future loss of one or more of our significant customers or a substantial future reduction of orders by any of our significant customers could harm our business and results of operations. Moreover, our customers may vary their order levels significantly from period to period and customers may not continue to place orders with us in the future at the same levels as in prior periods. In the event that in the future we lose any of our larger customers, we may not be able to replace that revenue source. This could harm our financial results.

Management of growth will be necessary for us to be competitive

Successful expansion of our business will depend on our ability to effectively attract and manage staff, strategic business relationships, and shareholders. Specifically, we will need to hire skilled management and technical personnel as well as manage partnerships to navigate shifts in the general economic environment. Expansion has the potential to place significant strains on financial, management, and operational resources, yet failure to expand will inhibit our profitability goals.

We import many of our products from Asian countries, including the People’s Republic of China. Disruptions or a change in the tariff situation may negatively affect our business

Many of the products we market are manufactured in Asian countries and are then imported to our facilities in the United States and ultimately sold to our customers. There can be no assurance of the reliability of such channels and disruption would likely have a significant impact on our business operations, our ability to retain customers and on our ability to generate profits. A significant change in trade tariffs could also negatively affect our business operations.

If product liability lawsuits are successfully brought against us, we will incur substantial liabilities.

From time to time, we may receive complaints from customers regarding our goods and services. We may become subject to product liability lawsuits from customers alleging injury because of a purported defect in our products or services, claiming substantial damages and demanding payments from us. Liability claims may include allegations of defects in manufacturing, defects in design, a failure to warn of dangers inherent in the product, negligence, strict liability and a breach of warranties. Claims could also be asserted under state consumer protection acts. We may be in the chain of ownership when we supply or distributes products, and therefore is subject to the risk of being held legally responsible for such products. Given the nature of these products (including their relation to cannabis or for other reasons), these claims may not be subject to insurance coverage or covered by insurance policies. Any resulting litigation, regardless of the merits or eventual outcome, could decrease demand for our products, result in product recalls or withdrawals, be costly, divert management attention, result in increased costs of doing business, or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Any litigation or even negative publicity generated as a result of customer frustration or disagreement with the products or services could damage our reputation and diminish the value of our brand name, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

RISKS OF GOVERNMENT ACTION AND REGULATORY UNCERTAINTY

 

The Farm Bill recently passed, and undeveloped shared state-federal regulations over hemp cultivation and production may impact our business.

The Farm Bill was signed into law on December 20, 2018. Under Section 10113 of the Farm Bill, state departments of agriculture must consult with the state’s governor and chief law enforcement officer to devise a plan that must be submitted to the Secretary of USDA. A state’s plan to license and regulate hemp can only commence once the Secretary of USDA approves that state’s plan. In states opting not to devise a hemp regulatory program, USDA will need to construct a regulatory program under which hemp cultivators in those states must apply for licenses and comply with a federally-run program. The details and scopes of each state’s plans are not known at this time and may contain varying regulations that may impact our business. Even if a state creates a plan in conjunction with its governor and chief law enforcement officer, the Secretary of the USDA must approve it. There can be no guarantee that any state plan will be approved. Review times may be extensive. There may be amendments and the ultimate plans, if approved by states and the USDA, may materially limit our business depending upon the scope of the regulations.

Laws and regulations affecting our industry to be developed under the Farm Bill are in development

As a result of the Farm Bill’s recent passage, there will be a constant evolution of laws and regulations affecting the hemp industry could detrimentally affect our operations. Local, state and federal hemp laws and regulations may be broad in scope and subject to changing interpretations. These changes may require us to incur substantial costs associated with legal and compliance fees and ultimately require us to alter our business plan. Furthermore, violations of these laws, or alleged violations, could disrupt our business and result in a material adverse effect on our operations. In addition, we cannot predict the nature of any future laws, regulations, interpretations or applications, and it is possible that regulations [T3] may be enacted in the future that will be directly applicable to our business. While we have not identified any direct liabilities or business issue relative to the above items, there can be no assurance that any such issues will not arise in the future. Thus, there can be no assurance the Company will not be subject to contingent liabilities in the future relative to the above.

U.S. Federal and foreign regulation and enforcement may adversely affect the implementation of cannabis laws and regulations and may negatively impact our revenue, or we may be found to be violating the Controlled Substances Act or other U.S. federal, state, or foreign laws.

The Company does have plans to cultivate, process, market or distribute cannabis or any products that contain cannabis, some of our customers do engage in such activities. Cannabis, as not strictly defined in the 2018 Farm Bill, is a Schedule-I controlled substance and is illegal under federal law. Even in those states where the use of cannabis, as not strictly defined in the 2018 Farm Bill, has been legalized, its use remains a violation of federal law. A Schedule I controlled substance is defined as a substance that has no currently accepted medical use in the United States, a lack of safety for use under medical supervision and a high potential for abuse. The Department of Justice defines Schedule 1 controlled substances as “the most dangerous drugs of all the drug schedules with potentially severe psychological or physical dependence.”

At present, numerous states and the District of Columbia allow their citizens to use medical cannabis. Additionally, many states have approved legalization of cannabis, as not strictly defined in the 2018 Farm Bill, for adult recreational use. The laws of these states relative to cannabis as not strictly defined in the 2018 Farm Bill, are in conflict with the Federal Controlled Substances Act, which makes cannabis, as not strictly defined in the 2018 Farm Bill, use and possession illegal on a national level. If the federal government decides to enforce the Controlled Substances Act with respect to cannabis, as not strictly defined in the 2018 Farm Bill, persons that are charged with distributing, possessing with intent to distribute, or growing cannabis, as not strictly defined in the 2018 Farm Bill, could be subject to fines and imprisonment. Any such change in the federal government’s enforcement of current federal laws will cause significant financial damage to us.

 

The approach to the enforcement of cannabis laws may be subject to change, which creates uncertainty for our business.

As a result of the conflicting views between state legislatures and the federal government regarding cannabis, as not strictly defined in the 2018 Farm Bill, investments in, and the operations of, cannabis businesses in the U.S. are subject to inconsistent laws and regulations. Laws and regulations affecting the cannabis industry are constantly changing, which could detrimentally affect our operations. Local, state and federal cannabis laws and regulations are broad in scope and subject to evolving interpretations, which could require us to incur substantial costs associated with compliance or alter our business plan. In addition, violations of these laws, or allegations of such violations, could disrupt our business and result in a material adverse effect on our operations. It is also possible that regulations may be enacted in the future that will be directly applicable to our business. These ever-changing regulations could even affect federal tax policies that may make it difficult to claim tax deductions on our returns. We cannot predict the nature of any future laws, regulations, interpretations or applications, nor can we determine what effect additional governmental regulations or administrative policies and procedures, when and if promulgated, could have on our business.

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH BANK AND INSURANCE LAWS AND REGULATIONS

 

We and our customers may have difficulty accessing the service of banks, which may make it difficult to sell our products and services and manage our cash flows.

Since the commerce in cannabis, as not strictly defined in the 2018 Farm Bill, is illegal under federal law, federally most chartered banks will not accept for deposit funds from businesses involved with cannabis. Consequently, businesses involved in the cannabis industry often have trouble finding a bank willing to accept their business. The inability to open bank accounts may make it difficult for our customers to operate. There does appears to be recent movement to allow state-chartered banks and credit unions to provide banking to the industry, but as of the date of this report there are only nominal entities that have been formed that offer these services.

Financial transactions involving proceeds generated by cannabis-related conduct can form the basis for prosecution under the federal money laundering statutes, unlicensed money transmitter statute and the U.S. Bank Secrecy Act. Despite guidance from the U.S. Department of the Treasury suggesting it may be possible for financial institutions to provide services to cannabis-related businesses consistent with their obligations under the Bank Secrecy Act, banks remain hesitant to offer banking services to cannabis-related businesses. Consequently, those businesses involved in the cannabis industry continue to encounter difficulty establishing banking relationships. Our inability to maintain our current bank accounts would make it difficult for us to operate our business, increase our operating costs, and pose additional operational, logistical and security challenges and could result in our inability to implement our business plan. Similarly, many of our customers are directly involved in cannabis sales and further restriction to their ability to access banking services may make it difficult for them to purchase our products, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

We are subject to certain federal regulations relating to cash reporting.

The Bank Secrecy Act, enforced by FinCEN, requires us to report currency transactions in excess of $10,000, including identification of the customer by name and social security number, to the IRS. This regulation also requires us to report certain suspicious activity, including any transaction that exceeds $5,000 that we know, suspect or have reason to believe involves funds from illegal activity or is designed to evade federal regulations or reporting requirements and to verify sources of funds. Substantial penalties can be imposed against us if we fail to comply with this regulation. If we fail to comply with these laws and regulations, the imposition of a substantial penalty could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Due to our involvement in the cannabis industry, we may have a difficult time obtaining the various insurances that are desired to operate our business, which may expose us to additional risk and financial liability

Insurance that is otherwise readily available, such as general liability, and directors and officer’s insurance, is more difficult for us to find, and more expensive, because we are service providers to companies in the cannabis industry. There are no guarantees that we will be able to find such insurances in the future, or that the cost will be affordable to us. If we are forced to go without such insurances, it may prevent us from entering into certain business sectors, may inhibit our growth, and may expose us to additional risk and financial liabilities.

RISK ASSOCIATED WITH OUR INDUSTRY

Our business and financial performance may be adversely affected by downturns in the target markets that we serve or reduced demand for the types of products we sell.

Demand for our products is often affected by general economic conditions as well as product-use trends in our target markets. These changes may result in decreased demand for our products. The occurrence of these conditions is beyond our ability to control and, when they occur, they may have a significant impact on our sales and results of operations. The inability or unwillingness of our customers to pay a premium for our products due to general economic conditions or a downturn in the economy may have a significant adverse impact on our sales and results of operations.

Changes within the cannabis industry may adversely affect our financial performance.

Changes in the identity, ownership structure and strategic goals of our competitors and the emergence of new competitors in our target markets may harm our financial performance. New competitors may include foreign-based companies and commodity-based domestic producers who could enter our specialty markets if they are unable to compete in their traditional markets. The paper industry has also experienced consolidation of producers and distribution channels. Further consolidation could unite other producers with distribution channels through which we intend to sell our products, thereby limiting access to our target markets.

 

We are subject to certain tax risks and treatments that could negatively impact our results of operations.

Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, 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 issued a clarification allowing the deduction of certain expenses, the scope of such items is interpreted very narrowly, and the bulk of operating costs and general administrative costs are not permitted to be deducted. While there are currently several pending cases before various administrative and federal courts challenging these restrictions, there is no guarantee that these courts will issue an interpretation of Section 280E favorable to cannabis businesses.

 

The Company’s industry is highly competitive, and we have less capital and resources than many of our competitors which may give them and advantage in developing and marketing products similar to ours or make our products obsolete.

We are involved in a highly competitive industry where we may compete with numerous other companies who offer alternative methods or approaches, who may have far greater resources, more experience, and personnel perhaps more qualified than we do. Such resources may give our competitors an advantage in developing and marketing products similar to ours or products that make our products less desirable to consumers or obsolete. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully compete against these other entities.

We may be unable to respond to the rapid technological change in the industry and such change may increase costs and competition that may adversely affect our business

Rapidly changing technologies, frequent new product and service introductions and evolving industry standards characterize our market. The continued growth of the Internet and intense competition in our industry exacerbates these market characteristics. Our future success will depend on our ability to adapt to rapidly changing technologies by continually improving the performance features and reliability of our products. We may experience difficulties that could delay or prevent the successful development, introduction or marketing of our products. In addition, any new enhancements must meet the requirements of our current and prospective customers and must achieve significant market acceptance. We could also incur substantial costs if we need to modify our products and services or infrastructures to adapt to these changes.

We also expect that new competitors may introduce products or services that are directly or indirectly competitive with us. These competitors may succeed in developing, products and services that have greater functionality or are less costly than our products and services and may be more successful in marketing such products and services. Technological changes have lowered the cost of operating communications and computer systems and purchasing software. These changes reduce our cost of selling products and providing services, but also facilitate increased competition by reducing competitors’ costs in providing similar products and services. This competition could increase price competition and reduce anticipated profit margins.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK

 

We may need additional capital that will dilute the ownership interest of investors.

We may require additional capital to fund our future business operations. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity, equity-related or convertible debt securities, these securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the rights of holders of our shares of common stock, who may experience dilution of their ownership interest of our shares of Common Stock. We cannot predict whether additional financing will be available to us on favorable terms when required, or at all. Since our inception, we have experienced negative cash flow from operations and expect to experience significant negative cash flow from operations in the future. The issuance of additional shares of Common Stock by our board of directors may have the effect of further diluting the proportionate equity interest and voting power of holders of our shares of Common Stock.

 

We have the ability to issue additional shares of our shares of preferred stock without asking for stockholder approval, which could cause your investment to be diluted.

Our Articles of Incorporation authorizes the Board of Directors to issue up to 10,000,000,000 shares of Common Stock. The power of the Board of Directors to issue shares of Common Stock, preferred stock or warrants or options to purchase shares of Common Stock or preferred stock is generally not subject to stockholder approval. Accordingly, any additional issuance of our shares of Common Stock, or shares of preferred stock that may be convertible into Common Stock, may have the effect of diluting your investment.

 

Our shares of Common Stock qualify as a penny stock. As such, we are subject to the risks associated with “penny stocks”. Regulations relating to “penny stocks” limit the ability of our shareholders to sell their shares and, as a result, our shareholders may have to hold their shares indefinitely.

Our shares of Common Stock are deemed to be “penny stock” as that term is defined in Rule_3a51-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Penny stocks are stocks: (a) with a price of less than $5.00 per share; (b) that are not traded on a “recognized” national exchange; (c) whose prices are not quoted on the NASDAQ automated quotation system (NASDAQ - where listed stocks must still meet requirement (a) above); or (d) in issuers with net tangible assets of less than $2,000,000 (if the issuer has been in continuous operation for at least three years) or $5,000,000 (if in continuous operation for less than three years), or with average revenues of less than $6,000,000 for the last three years.

Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act and Rule 240.15g(c)2 promulgated under the Exchange Act require broker dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the document before effecting any transaction in a penny stock for the investor’s account. Potential investors in our shares of Common Stock are urged to obtain and read such disclosure carefully before purchasing any shares of Common Stock that are deemed to be “penny stock”.

-16--17-
Table of Contents

Moreover, Regulation 240.15g-9 of the SEC requires broker dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in such stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor. This procedure requires the broker dealer to: (a) obtain from the investor information concerning his or her financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives; (b) reasonably determine, based on that information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor and that the investor has sufficient knowledge and experience as to be reasonably capable of evaluating the risks of penny stock transactions; (c) provide the investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker dealer made the determination in (ii) above; and (d) receive a signed and dated copy of such statement from the investor confirming that it accurately reflects the investor’s financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives. Compliance with these requirements may make it more difficult for investors in our shares of Common Stock to resell their shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them. Holders should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093, dated April 17, 1991, the market for penny stocks suffers from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include:

control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer;
manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases;
boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced salespersons;
excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and mark-ups by selling broker-dealers; and
the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses.

Our Management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market, Management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent the described patterns from being established with respect to our securities.

 

FINRA sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock and to deposit certificates in paper form or to clear shares for trading under Safe Harbor exemptions and regulations for unregistered shares.

In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (known as “FINRA”) has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker- dealers to recommend that their customers buy our shares of Common Stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for our investor to deposit paper stock certificates or to clear our shares of Common Stock that are transferred electronically to brokerage accounts. There can be no assurances that our investors will be able to clear our shares for eventual resale.

Costs and expenses of being a reporting company under the Exchange Act may be burdensome and prevent us from achieving profitability

As a public company, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, and parts of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”). We expect that the requirements of these rules and regulations will continue to increase our legal, accounting and financial compliance costs, make some activities more difficult, time-consuming and costly, and place significant strain on our personnel, systems and resources.

The trading market for our common stock is limited.

We are quoted on the OTC Markets Group’s OTC Pink market tier under the trading symbol “SGMD”. This may result in limited shareholder interest and hence lower prices for our common stock than might otherwise be obtained.

Our principal stockholders, executive officers and directors own a significant percentage of our common stock and will be able to exert a significant control over matters submitted to the stockholders for approval.

Our officers and directors, and stockholders who own more than 5% of our common stock beneficially own a significant percentage of our common stock. This significant concentration of share ownership may adversely affect the trading price for our common stock because investors often perceive disadvantages in owning stock in companies with controlling stockholders. These stockholders, if they acted together, could significantly influence all matters requiring approval by the stockholders, including the election of directors. The interests of these stockholders may not always coincide with the interests of other stockholders.

We do not intend to pay dividends on our common stock and, consequently, your ability to achieve a return on your investment will depend on appreciation in the price of our common stock.

We have never declared or paid any cash dividend on our common stock and do not currently intend to do so for the foreseeable future. We currently anticipate that we will retain future earnings for the development, operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. Therefore, the success of an investment in shares of our common stock will depend upon any future appreciation in their value. There is no guarantee that shares of our common stock will appreciate in value or even maintain the price at which our stockholders have purchased their shares.

If we fail to establish or maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, we may be unable to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud, and investor confidence and the market price of our common stock may, therefore, be adversely impacted.

As a public company, we are required to maintain internal control over financial reporting for each of our fiscal years and to report any material weaknesses in such internal control. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires that we evaluate and determine the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, provide a management report on the internal control over financial reporting, which must be attested to by our independent registered public accounting firm to the extent we decide not to avail ourselves of the exemptions provided under federal laws. Management has presently concluded that our internal control over financial reporting is not effective and has reported such conclusions in management’s report in this annual report on Form 10-K. In the event that the Company’s status with the SEC changes to that of an accelerated filer from a smaller reporting company, our independent registered public accounting firm will be required to attest to and report on our management’s assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Under such circumstances, even if our management concludes that our internal control over financial reporting are effective, our independent registered public accounting firm may still decline to attest to our management’s assessment, or may issue a report that is qualified, if it is not satisfied with our controls, or the level at which our controls are documented, designed, operated or reviewed, or if it interprets the relevant requirements differently from us.

Shareholders and investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports and the market price of our common stock could be negatively affected, we could become subject to investigations by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), or other regulatory authorities, which could require additional financial and management resources and could damage our reputation and diminish the value of our brand name.

The market price of our common stock may be volatile and may be affected by market conditions beyond our control. The market price of our common stock is subject to significant fluctuations in response to, among other factors:

variations in our operating results and market conditions specific to our business;
the emergence of new competitors or new technologies;
operating and market price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable;
changes in our Board or management;
sales or purchases of our common stock by insiders;
commencement of, or involvement in, litigation;
changes in governmental regulations, in particular with respect to the cannabis industry; and
general economic conditions and slow or negative growth of related markets.

In addition, if the market for stocks in our industry, or the stock market in general, experiences a loss of investor confidence, the market price of our common stock could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, financial condition, or results of operations. If any of the foregoing occurs, it could cause the price of our common stock to fall and may expose us to lawsuits that, even if unsuccessful, could be costly to defend and a distraction to our Board of Directors and management.

TheThe application of the “penny stock” rules could adversely affect the market price of our common shares and increase your transaction costs to sell those shares.

Our shares of Common Stock are considered to be “penny stocks” as the SEC has adopted Rule 3a51-1, which establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” to include any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share and because they are not registered on a national securities exchange or listed on an automated quotation system sponsored by a registered national securities association, pursuant to Rule 3a51-1(a) under the Exchange Act. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks and that the broker or dealer receives from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination and that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.

Going Concern

The Company sustained continued operating losses during the years ended June 30, 20212022 and 2020.2021. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, in which it has not been successful, and/or obtaining additional financing from its shareholders or other sources, as may be required.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern; however, the above condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Management is endeavoring to increase revenue-generating operations. While priority is on generating cash from operations through the sale of the Company’s products, management is also seeking to raise additional working capital through various financing sources, including the sale of the Company’s equity and/or debt securities, which may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. If such financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue our business as desired and our operating results will be adversely affected. In addition, any financing arrangement may have potentially adverse effects on us and/or our stockholders. Debt financing (if available and undertaken) will increase expenses, must be repaid regardless of operating results and may involve restrictions limiting our operating flexibility. If we issue equity securities to raise additional funds, the percentage ownership of our existing stockholders will be reduced and the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the current holders of our common stock.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have primarily financed our operations through the sale of unregistered equity, loans and convertible notes payable. As of June 30, 2021,2022, our Company had a cash balance of $1,396,944,$161,014, current assets of $4,151,909$1,083,483 and total assets of $19,432,951.$16,869,910. We had current liabilities of $8,815,251$13,794,327 and total liabilities of $14,662,733.$19,840,784. Stockholders’ equitydeficit was $4,770,218$2,970,874 as of June 30, 2021.2022.

The following is a summary of cash provided by or used in each of the indicated types of activities during the years ended June 30, 20212022 and 2020:2021:

Our capital requirements going forward will consist of financing our operations until we are able to reach a level of revenues and gross margins adequate to equal or exceed our ongoing operating expenses. Other than the notes payable discussed above, borrowings from our bank and the production credit facility with our suppliers, we do not have any credit agreements or other sources of liquidity immediately available to us.

Given estimates of our Company’s future operating results and our credit arrangements with our suppliers, we are currently forecasting that we will need to secure additional financing to obtain adequate financial resources to reach profitability. As of the date of this report, we estimate that the cash necessary to implement our current business plan for the next twelve (12) months is approximately $5,000,000.

Based on our need to raise additional funds to implement our business plans for the next twelve months, we have included a discussion concerning the presentation of our financial statements on a going concern basis in the notes to our financial statements and our independent public accountants have included a similar discussion in their opinion on our financial statements through June 30, 2021.2022. We will be required in the near future to issue debt or sell our Company’s equity securities in order to raise additional cash, although there are no firm arrangements in place for any such financing at this time. We cannot provide any assurances as to whether we will be able to secure the necessary financing, or the terms of any such financing transaction if one were to occur. The failure to secure such financing could severely curtail our plans for future growth or in more severe scenarios, the continued operations of our Company.

Capital Expenditures

Our current plans call for our Company to expend significant amounts for capital expenditures for the foreseeable future beyond relatively insignificant expenditures for office furniture and information technology related equipment and employees as it is part of the requirement to build the infrastructure needed to support the current growth. At the same time, we will continually evaluating the production processes of our third party contract manufacturers to determine if there are investments, we could make in their processes to achieve manufacturing improvements and significant cost savings. Any such desired investments would require additional cash above our current forecast requirements.

Critical Accounting Policies Involving Management Estimates and Assumptions

Use of Fair Value

The Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level l1 - observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 - include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

Level 3 - unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activities.activity.

Table of Contents

The Company used Level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology for the derivative liabilities in determining the fair value using the Binomial option-pricing model for the year ended June 30, 2022.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”)GAAP requires our 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

Background on FASB’s Development of NewWe recognize revenue in accordance with ASC No. 606, Revenue Recognition Standard

In May 2014, the FASB  issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 requires an entity to recognizeRecognition. Sugarmade applied a five-step approach in determining the amount and timing of revenue to which it expectsbe recognized: (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 be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. ASU 2014-09 will replace most existingperformance obligations in the contract and (5) recognizing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The guidance also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, “Deferralperformance obligation is satisfied.

Substantially all of the Effective Date” (“ASU 2015-14”), which defersCompany’s revenue is recognized at the effective date for ASU 2014-09 by one year. For public entities, the guidance in ASU 2014-09 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 (including interim reporting periods within those periods), and for all other entities, ASU 2014-09 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, “Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue versus Net)” (“ASU 2016-08”), which clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations in the new revenue recognition standard. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, “Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing” (“ASU 2016-10”), which reduces the complexity when applying the guidance for identifying performance obligations and improves the operability and understandabilitytime control of the license implementation guidance. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12 “Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients” (“ASU 2016-12”), which amends the guidance on transition, collectability, noncash consideration and the presentation of sales and other similar taxes. In December 2016, the FASB further issued ASU 2016-20, “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2016-20”), which makes minor corrections or minor improvementsproducts transfers to the Codification that are not expected to have a significant effect on current accounting practice or create a significant administrative cost to most entities. The amendments are intended to address implementation and provide additional practical expedients to reduce the cost and complexity of applying the new revenue standard. These amendments have the same effective date as the new revenue standard.customer.

Cash

Cash and cash equivalents consist of amounts held as bank deposits and highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.

From time to time, we may maintain bank balances in interest bearing accounts in excess of the $250,000 currently insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation for interest bearing accounts (there is currently no insurance limit for deposits in noninterest bearing accounts). We have not experienced any losses with respect to cash. Management believes our Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to its cash.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are carried at their estimated collectible amounts, net of any estimated allowances for doubtful accounts. We grant unsecured credit to our customer’s deemed credit worthy. Ongoing credit evaluations are performed and potential credit losses estimated by management are charged to operations on a regular basis. At the time any particular account receivable is deemed uncollectible, the balance is charged to the allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company had accounts receivable net of allowances of $29,822 as of June 30, 2022 and of $435,598 as of June 30, 2021 and of $134,517 as of June 30, 2020.2021.

Inventory

Inventory consists of finished goods paper and paper-based products ready for sale and is stated at the lower of cost or market. We value inventories using the weighted average costing method (approximate FIFO costing method). We regularly review inventory and consider forecasts of future demand, market conditions and product obsolescence. If the estimated realizable value of our inventory is less than cost, we make provisions in order to reduce its carrying value to its estimated market value.

Property and Equipment

Expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized while repairs and maintenance costs are normally charged to the statement of operations in the year in which they are incurred. In situations where it can be clearly demonstrated that the expenditure has resulted in an increase in the future economic benefits expected to be obtained from the use of the asset, the expenditure is capitalized as an additional cost of the asset.

Upon sale or disposal of an asset, the historical cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization of such asset were removed from their respective accounts and any gain or loss is recorded in the statements of income.

The Company reviews the carrying value of property, plant, and equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and other economic factors. Based on this assessment, no impairment expenses for property, plant, and equipment was recorded in operating expenses during the years ended June 30, 20212022 and 2020.2021.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired in business combinations accounted for under the acquisition method. Intangible assets net

Intangiblerepresent purchased intangible assets with finite livesincluding developed technology and in-process research and development, technologies acquired or licensed from other companies, customer relationships, non-compete covenants, backlog, and trademarks and tradenames. Purchased finite-lived intangible assets are capitalized and amortized over their estimated useful lives. Technologies acquired or licensed from other companies, customer relationships, non-compete covenants, backlog, and trademarks and tradenames are capitalized and amortized over the lesser of the terms of the agreement, or estimated useful life. The Company monitors conditions related to these assets to determine whether events and circumstances warrantWe capitalized the cannabis cultivation license acquired as part of a revision to the remaining amortization period. The Company tests its intangible assets with finite lives for potential impairment whenever management concludes events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The original estimate of an asset’s useful life and the impact of an event or circumstance on either an asset’s useful life or carrying value involve significant judgment.business combination.

Derivative Instruments

The fair value of derivative instruments is recorded and shown separately under current liabilities. Changes in the fair value of derivatives liability are recorded in the consolidated statement of operations under non-operating income (expense).

-30-
Table of Contents

Our Company evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a Lattice Binomial model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Stock Based Compensation

Stock basedStock-based compensation cost to employees is measured at the date of grant, based on the calculated fair value of the stock-based award, and will be recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the award). We estimate the fair value of employee stock options granted using the Binomial Option Pricing Model. Key assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options will include the exercise price of the award, the fair value of our common stock on the date of grant, the expected option term, the risk-free interest rate at the date of grant, the expected volatility and the expected annual dividend yield on our common stock. We use our company’s own data among other information to estimate the expected price volatility and the expected forfeiture rate. Stock-based compensation awards issued to non-employees for services rendered are recorded at either the fair value of the services rendered or the fair value of the stock-based payment, whichever is more readily determinable.

Loss Per Share

We calculate basic earningsloss per share (“EPS”) by dividing our net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, without considering common stock equivalents. Diluted EPSloss per share is computed by dividing net income or net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and the weighted average number of dilutive common stock equivalents, such as options and warrants. Options and warrants are only included in the calculation of diluted EPSearning per share when their effect is dilutive. As of June 30, 2021, there are approximately 1,172,004,759 potential shares issuable upon conversion of convertible debts, and 10,578,880 shares of warrants were excluded in calculating diluted loss per share for the year ended June 30, 2021 due to the fact that issuance of the shares is anti-dilutive as a result of the Company’s net loss.

Income taxes

We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their perspective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are recorded, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

As a result of the implementation of certain provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which clarifies the accounting and disclosure for uncertainty in tax position, as defined, ASC 740 seeks to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspect of the recognition and measurement related to accounting for income taxes. We adopted the provisions of ASC 740 as of October 2, 2008 and have analyzed filing positions in each of the federal and state jurisdictions where we are required to file income tax returns, as well as open tax years in these jurisdictions. We have identified the U.S. federal and California as our “major” tax jurisdictions and generally, we remain subject to Internal Revenue Service examination of our 2013 U.S. federal income tax returns. However, we have certain tax attribute carryforwards, which will remain subject to review and adjustment by the relevant tax authorities until the statute of limitations closes with respect to the year in which such attributes are utilized.

We believe that our income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and do not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to our financial position. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant to ASC 740. In addition, we did not record a cumulative effect adjustment related to the adoption of ASC 740. Our policy for recording interest and penalties associated with income-based tax audits is to record such items as a component of income taxes. We have no interest or penalties as of June 30, 2021.2022.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new standard establishes an ROU model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company have adopted this ASU on the consolidated financial statements in the quarter ended September 30, 2019.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. The pronouncement simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes”. The pronouncement also improves consistent application of and simplifies U.S. GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance.

We are still evaluating the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, Investments - Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivative and Hedging (Topic 815), which clarifies the interaction of rules for equity securities, the equity method of accounting, and forward contracts and purchase options on certain types of securities. The guidance clarifies how to account for the transition into and out of the equity method of accounting when considering observable transactions under the measurement alternative. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim reporting periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. WeThe Company adopted this ASU on the consolidated financial statements in the year ended June 30, 2021. The adoption had no material impact on the consolidated financial statements in the years ended June 30, 2021 and 2022.

ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. The ASU is part of the FASB’s simplification initiative, which aims to reduce unnecessary complexity in GAAP. The ASU’s amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-06 on its financial statements.

On March 2021, the new guidanceFASB issued ASU 2021-03, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Accounting Alternative for Evaluating Triggering Events(“ASU 2021-03”).

An entity that elects this alternative is not required to monitor for goodwill impairment triggering events during the reporting period but, instead, should evaluate the facts and circumstances as of the end of each reporting period to determine whether a triggering event exists and, if so, whether it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired. The amendments in this ASU are effective on oura prospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued as of March 30, 2021.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Sugarmade, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Sugarmade, Inc. and Subsidiary (“the Company”) as of June 30, 2021 and 2020 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, cash flows and the related notes to consolidated financial statements (collectively referred to as the consolidated financial statements) for the years ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit, recurring losses, and expects continuing future losses. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s evaluation of the events and conditions and management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Deconsolidation of Variable Interest Entities

As discussed in Notes 6 and 7 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company holds an equity investment in Indigo Dye Group (“Indigo”) and accounts for its investment as a consolidated variable interest entity (“VIE”) for the year ended June 30, 2020. During the year ended June 30, 2021, the Company ceased their control and deconsolidated the VIE and now accounts its investment under the equity method. To reach its accounting conclusion, the Company claimed it holds no controlling financial interest in Indigo. We identified the assessment of the controlling financial interest in Indigo as a critical audit matter.

Our principal audit procedures performed to address this critical audit matter included the following:

Evaluating if the Company has power to direct the activities of Indigo that the most significantly impact Indigo’s economic performance.
Evaluating the Company’s obligation to absorb losses of Indigo that could potentially be significant to Indigo or the right to receive benefits from Indigo that could potentially be significant to Indigo.

 

Investments Impairment

As discussed in Note 18 to the consolidated financial statements, the investment as of June 30, 2021 was $441,407. The Company performs an impairment testing at least once a year, or as deemed necessary due to the identification of a triggering event. The Company recognized a total impairment charge of $43,800 during the year ended June 30, 2021. The Company tests the investment asset utilizing a discounted cash flow method to determine the estimated fair value.

We identified the assessment of the fair value of the Company’s investments to be a critical audit matter. The discount rates and revenue growth rates are subjective measures and changes to these assumptions could have a significant effect on the Company’s assessment of the investment’s fair value. Inherent uncertainties exist related to the Company’s revenue growth rates and how various economic and other factors, including the projected impact from the COVID-19 pandemic, could affect the Company’s forecasted assumptions of future cash flows. Auditing these elements involved especially challenging and subjective auditor judgment, including the need for specialized skills and knowledge.

Our principal audit procedures performed to address the investments impairment included the following:

Assessing the Company’s ability to estimate future cash flows, including projected revenues, by comparing the Company’s historical cash flow forecasts by investment to actual results.
Evaluating the reasonableness of assumptions used in the Company’s estimate of fair value, including the revenue growth rate, given the inherent uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Utilizing personnel with specialized knowledge and skill in valuation to assist in assessing the appropriateness of the methodology applied in estimating the fair values of the Company’s investments, discount rate used in the Company’s estimate of the fair value, including performing sensitivity analysis.

Intangible Assets Impairment

As discussed in Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s intangible assets were $10.6 million as of June 30, 2021. The Company’s intangible assets include amounts recognized in connection with business acquisitions. The intangible assets mainly related to the cannabis cultivation license. In accordance with ASC 360, definite-lived intangible assets were reviewed for impairment if a triggering event occurred. As of June 30, 2021, no triggering event was identified. As a result of that analysis, the Company concluded there was no impairment for intangible assets as of such date.

Table of Contents

 

We identified the intangible assets impairment assessment as a critical audit matter because of the significant estimates and assumptions management used in the analysis. Performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of these estimates and assumptions required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort. In addition, the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.

-34-
Table of Contents

Our principal audit procedures performed to address the intangible assets impairment included the following:

 Performed qualitative procedures to identify if any indications to the impairment.
 Performed a sensitivity analysis of significant assumptions, particularly as it relates to revenue growth rates and operating margins and evaluating the impact on the fair values that would result from changes in the assumptions.
 Utilizing personnel with specialized knowledge and skill in valuation to assist in assessing the appropriateness of the methodology applied in estimating the fair values of the Company’s intangible assets and evaluating the reasonableness of certain assumptions used in valuation.

Goodwill Impairment

As discussed in Note 16 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s goodwill was $757,648 as of June 30, 2021. The Company’s goodwill was recognized in connection with business acquisitions. In accordance with ASC 350, goodwill is reviewed for impairment at least once a year. As of June 30, 2021, the Company concluded there was no impairment for intangible assets as of such date.

We identified the evaluation of the impairment analysis for goodwill as a critical audit matter because of the significant estimates and assumptions management used in the analysis. Performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of these estimates and assumptions required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort. In addition, the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.

Our principal audit procedures performed to address the goodwill impairment included the following:

Performed a sensitivity analysis of significant assumptions, particularly as it relates to revenue growth rates and operating margins and evaluating the impact on the fair values that would result from changes in the assumptions.
Utilizing personnel with specialized knowledge and skill in analysis to assist in assessing the appropriateness of the methodology applied in estimating the fair values of the Company’s goodwill and evaluating the reasonableness of certain assumptions used in analysis.

Convertible Notes

As discussed in Notes 24 and 25 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company had various debt instruments which included conversion features requiring bifurcation and separate accounting. Management evaluated the required accounting, significant estimates, and judgments around the valuation for these embedded derivatives. These embedded derivatives were initially measured at fair value and have subsequently been remeasured to fair value at each reporting period and at settlement.

There is no current observable market for these types of features and, as such, the Company determined the fair value of the embedded derivatives using a binomial option pricing model to measure the fair value of the bifurcated derivative. As a result, a high degree of auditor judgment and effort was required in performing audit procedures to evaluate the conclusions reached by management, as well as the inputs to the Company’s binomial option pricing model.

Our principal audit procedures performed to address this critical audit matter included the following:

We obtained an understanding of the controls and processes surrounding the evaluation, initial measurement and revaluation of the bifurcated derivatives.
We evaluated management’s assessment and the conclusions reached to ensure these instruments were recorded in accordance with the relevant accounting guidance.
We evaluated the fair value of the bifurcated derivatives that included testing the valuation models and assumptions utilized by management. We reviewed and tested the fair value model used, significant assumptions, and underlying data used in the model.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To:The Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Sugarmade, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Sugarmade, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”) as of June 30, 2022, and the related consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss, changes in stockholders’ (deficit) equity, and cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Emphasis of Matter – Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company had incurred substantial losses during the year ended June 30, 2021, and had a working capital deficit, which had raised substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. As of and for the year ended June 30, 2022, the Company continued to incur substantial losses during the year ended June 30, 2022, and as of June 30, 2022, the Company had a net working capital deficit; accordingly, the substantial doubt that the Company will continue as a going concern that existed at June 30, 2021, was not alleviated, and therefore, the as of June 30, 2022 and up to the date of this report, the substantial doubt the Company will continue as a going concern still exists. Management’s plans to address this substantial doubt is set forth in Note 2. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters

Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Intangible Assets

We assessed the carrying value of intangible assets as a critical audit matter. As discussed in Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements, as of June 30, 2022, the Company’s intangible assets balance was $10.6 million which was quantitatively material to the financial statements as a whole, and the account requires challenging, subjective and complex judgment and assumptions regarding the estimation of future cash flows to determine that the balance is reasonable and not materially misstated.

-37-
Table of Contents

Our principal audit procedures performed to address the carrying value of the intangible assets and related the impairment included the following:

Performed a sensitivity analysis of significant assumptions from management by researching wholesale and retail market value of cannabis products, particularly as it relates to revenue growth rates and operating margins, and evaluating the impact on the fair values that would result from changes in the assumptions.
Performed quantitative analysis by using an undiscounted cash flow calculation model to test if any impairment exists and developed a range of independent estimates for assumption valuation ratios and compared those to ratios selected by management
Utilized personnel with specialized knowledge and skill in valuation to assist in assessing the appropriateness of the methodology applied in estimating the fair values of the Company’s intangible assets.

Performed active market research to obtain the fair market value of the cannabis for valuation and for our calculation model data, in-person inquiry with the local governmental agricultural department to obtain the license permit status and using the historical approval data to estimate the foreseen permit approval rate which applies in our calculation model.

Obtained the third-party report from the professional consultant to verify the license application process and evaluated their opinion for the approval status of the agricultural permit.

The accounts relevant to this critical audit matter include the gross value of the intangible assets, the related accumulated amortization, amortization expense and impairment expense, and the related disclosure in the accompanying notes 2 and 14 to the financial statements.

Goodwill

We assessed the carrying value of goodwill as a critical audit matter. As discussed in Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s goodwill balance was $757,648 as of June 30, 2022. The account requires challenging, subjective, and complex judgment and assumptions regarding the estimation of future cash flows and finding the appropriate weighted average cost of capital to determine that the balance is reasonable, properly disclosed, and not materially misstated.

Our principal audit procedures performed to address the goodwill impairment included the following:

Evaluated management of significant assumptions and estimates which is particularly related to future revenue growth rates, capital expenditures, operating margins on evaluating the impact on the fair values according to the changes in the assumptions
Performed quantitative analysis by using valuation model to evaluate the fair value and test whether impairment exists
Utilized personnel with specialized knowledge and skill in analysis to assist in assessing the appropriateness of the methodology applied in estimating the fair values of the Company’s goodwill and evaluating the reasonableness of certain ratios and assumptions used in analysis.

The accounts relevant to this critical audit matter include the gross value of the goodwill, and related impairment expense, and the related disclosure in the accompanying note 15 to the financial statements.

Convertible Notes and Derivative Liabilities

We assessed the carrying value and allocation of the convertible notes and related derivative liabilities as a critical audit matter. As discussed in notes 20 and 21 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company had various debt instruments which included conversion features requiring bifurcation and separate accounting. As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s convertible notes and derivate liabilities balance were $1,467,437 and $5,521,284, respectively which these amounts were material to the financial statements as a whole, and the account requires challenging, subjective, and complex judgment and assumptions in order to properly value and allocate such value to the convertible notes and the derivative liabilities; additionally, the finding appropriate comparable market data and inputs for the valuation models employed can be challenging; selection of the appropriate model to measure the fair value of the embedded derivatives requires a great deal of judgment; the Company’s management employed binomial option pricing model to measure the fair value of the bifurcated securities; these circumstances give rise to complex judgment in determining the management’s estimate of the balance is reasonable and not materially misstated.

Our principal audit procedures performed to address this critical audit matter included the following:

We obtained an understanding of the controls and processes surrounding the evaluation, initial measurement and revaluation of the bifurcated derivatives.
We evaluated management’s assessment and the conclusions reached to ensure these instruments were recorded in accordance with the relevant accounting guidance.
We evaluated the value of these debt instruments by sending confirmation and vouching the related agreement

We reviewed and tested the significant assumption and recalculated related underlying data used in the valuation model used by the management to verify the reasonableness of valuation models used.
We performed research to determine that the model was appropriate to the facts and circumstances.

The accounts relevant to this critical audit matter include the gross value of the notes, the related debt discount amortization account, and amortization of debt discount, and the gross value of the derivative liabilities, and the related change in fair value of derivative liabilities and the related disclosures in the accompanying notes 20 and 21 to the financial statements.

NUG Avenue, Inc. investment into licensed cannabis delivery in Los Angeles area markets. During February 2021, we became a majority owner of NUG Avenue, Inc., a California corporation (“NUG Avenue”), which operates a licensed and regulated cannabis delivery service out of Lynwood, California, serving the greater Los Angeles Metropolitan area (the “Lynwood Operations”).

Cannabis products delivery service and sales: services:As a joint owner in Following the Budcars licensedend of the COVID cannabis delivery service brand (“Budcars” orboom, along with a challenging cannabis retail climate from inflation, the “Budcars Brand”). Budcars operatesblack market, increased marketing expenses, and the cannabis excise tax moving from distribution to retail, the company has decided to reduce investments in retail operations. The company made this decision as we see more promising opportunities to increase shareholder equity by pivoting the business strategy to deploy capital to invest in cannabis real estate, cultivation, and wholesale sectors vs. cannabis retail operations.

After discussions with ECGI, Inc. and the management of Nug Avenue, we could not find a licensed cannabis delivery servicepath to short term profitability. The company then decided to cease investing in Nug Avenue, which ultimately led to Nug Avenue discontinuing operations.

As part of pivoting our business strategy, the Sacramento, California area. During early 2020, the Company entered into agreementcompany negotiated with Indigo Dye Group Corp. (“Indigo”) to acquire 40%exchange our 32% stake in Budcars for a stake in a distribution and indoor cultivation company in Santa Rosa, California. The company has already executed a share exchange agreement with Indigo. However, the Budcars Brandfinal documents and in the Sacramento delivery operations. Under the terms of the agreement with Indigo, Sugarmade acquired an optionnew company are still being finalized. The company expects to purchase an additional 30% interest in Budcars. Upon exercisecomplete the documents and announce the transition to new business post filing of this option, the Company would acquire a controlling interest in Indigo. As of June 30, 2021, the option has not yet been exercised and the Company’s stake in Budcars was at 40%. Starting on October 1, 2020, the Company plans to open new locations via purchasing equity in other Brand/Franchises to cover delivery for the entire California. Therefore, the Company is not likely at this time to exercise its option to acquire the additional 30% interest in Indigo. In addition, the Company is no longer involved in day-to-day operations of Indigo and going forward, the Company intends to pursue cannabis delivery independent of Indigo. As of October 1, 2020, the Company ceased to have control over the day-to-day business of Indigo and it was deconsolidated and recorded as an investment in nonconsolidated affiliate at its $505,449 estimated fair value and changed to equity method of accounting. Pursuant to the terms of the Indigo agreement, if the Company determines, in its discretion not to continue to make monthly payments, its 40% ownership interest in Indigo will be decreased according to the payment then made. As of December 31, 2020, the Company made $59,370 additional payments, and hold approximately 32% of the ownership of Indigo. As of June 30, 2021, the Company recorded equity method investment in affiliates at $441,407, net with $81,725 loss from equity method investment. (See Note 6 and Note 7)10K.

Selected cannabis and hemp projects: On May 12, 2021, SugarMade, Inc.the Company entered into ana Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger, as amended (the “Merger Agreement”) by and between Lemon Glow Corporation, a California corporation (“Lemon Glow”), Carnaby Spot Bay Corp, a California corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), Lemon Glow Company and Ryan Santiago (the “Shareholder Representative”),as shareholder representative, pursuant to which on May 25, 2021 and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub mergedwould merge with and into Lemon Glow, with Lemon Glow being the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). Upon the closing of the merger, Lemon Glow was merged into the Company. The principal assetpurpose of the transactions was to establish a licensed and permitted entity which Sugarmade would cultivate, manufacture, and distribute cannabis to the California markets. At the time of the transactions, none of Lemon Glow, is landMerger Sub, or Sugarmade was permitted and licensed for such activities.

On October 28, 2021, Lemon Glow obtained a conditional Use Permit (UP) number from the Community Development Department of the County of Lake, California, which the Company believes is not an operating company. As a resultimportant step towards the conditional UP for commercial cannabis cultivation at its property. The issuance of the Merger, Lemon Glow became a wholly-owned subsidiaryconditional UP number by the County of Lake allows the Company to proceed with the state cannabis cultivation license application, and potentially obtain certain applicable permits, such as from the Department of Cannabis Control, Department of Food and Agriculture, Department of Pesticide Regulation, Department of Fish and Wildlife, The State Water Resources Control Board, Board of Forestry and Fire Protection, Central Valley or North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board, Department of Public Health, and Department of Consumer Affairs, as may be required. The Company believes that obtaining the conditional UP number by the County of Lake could be the first step toward full approval to cultivate cannabis on up to 32 acres out of the Company.total 640 acres of the property.

As of the date of this filing, Sugarmade is working diligently on satisfying the conditions required by the County of Lake to allow the Company to cultivate cannabis. It is the Company’s intention to begin such activities at the earliest time possible, assuming permits are ultimately issued. Upon issuance, the company will determine the amount of acreages to grow initially based on market demand and pre-orders. However, no such license or permits have yet been issued, and applications are still pending. There can be no assurance that any such license or permits will be issued in the near future or at all.

Once licensing and permits are issued, the company plans to divide the 32 canopy grow acres between four separate grow areas. These separate grow areas will allow the company to start with a single area and expand with demand. While waiting for demand to rise, dividing into separate grow areas will also provide an opportunity to lease the other grow areas to 3rd party or through partnership under Managed Service Agreement to generate additional revenue for the company.

We believe the market demand will increase upon federal legalization allowing for interstate commerce of cannabis. Opening the doors for out of state licensees to purchase California grown cannabis flowers.

Once fully completed, we estimate the output of 32 acres of canopy, will have the capacity of 64 tons of dry flower or 300 tons of fresh frozen, requiring approximately 300,000 sq ft of storage space. We will continue to make plans to build more storage space while concurrent with the licensing process.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our Company, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries,subsidiaries: SWC, Group, Inc., a California corporation (“SWC’’), Lemon Glow, Company, Inc., a California corporation (“Lemon Glow”),Sugarrush, Sugarrush 5058, and its majority owned subsidiary, NUG Avenue, Inc., a California corporation (“Nug Avenue”).Avenue. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Going concern

The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, in which it has not been successful, and/or obtaining additional financing from its shareholders or other sources, as may be required.

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. Such assumption contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Management is endeavoringendeavors to increase revenue-generating operations. While the Company’s priority is on generating cash from operations, through the sale of the Company’s products, management is also seekingseeks to raise additional working capital through various financing sources, including the sale of the Company’s equity and/or debt securities, which may not be available on commercially reasonable terms to our Company, or which may not be available at all. If such financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue our business as desired and our operating results will be adversely affected. In addition, any financing arrangement may have potentially adverse effects on us and/or our stockholders. Debt financing (if available and undertaken) will increase expenses, must be repaid regardless of operating results and may involve restrictions limiting our operating flexibility. If we issue equity securities to raise additional funds, the percentage ownership of our existing stockholders will be reduced, and the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the current holders of our common stock.

Business combinations

The Company applies the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations, in accounting for its acquisitions. It requires the Company to recognize separately from goodwill the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed, at the acquisition date fair values. Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the acquisition date fair values of the net assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. The Company used third party valuation company to determine the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires our 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 amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Revenue recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with FASB ASC No. 606, Revenue Recognition. Sugarmade applied a five-step approach in determining the amount and timing of revenue to be recognized: (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 the performance obligations in the contract and (5) recognizing revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied.

Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is recognized at the point in time that control of the products transfersis transferred to the customer. The Company receives customer deposits in advance of delivery of product to customers; these are contract liabilities that are recognized to revenue when the Company fulfilled the performance obligations. The Company receives payments from customer in either in advance, upon delivery, or after delivery in accordance with open account credit terms set forth by management. The Company’s contracts with customers do not provide for returns, refunds, and product warranties.

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB established Topic 842, Leases, by issuing Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize the rights and obligations created by leases on the balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements, ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, and ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842. The new standard establishes a right-of-use model (ROU) that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the statement of operations.

The new standard became effective April 1, 2019. A modified retrospective transition approach is required, applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. An entity may choose to use either (1) its effective date or (2) the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements as its date of initial application. If an entity chooses the second option, the transition requirements for existing leases also apply to leases entered into between the date of initial application and the effective date. The entity must also recast its comparative period financial statements and provide the disclosures required by the new standard for the comparative periods. The Company adopted the new standard on July 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition approach as of the effective date of the initial application. The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. The Company elected the “package of practical expedients”, which permits entities not to reassess under the new lease standard prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. The Company does not expect to elect the use-of-hindsight or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements.

 

-46-
Table of Contents

The most significant effects of the adoption of the new standard relate to the recognition of new ROU assets and lease labilitiesliabilities on our balance sheet for office operating leases and providing significant new disclosures about our leasing activities.

The new standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. The Company has also elected the short-term leases recognition exemption for all leases that qualify. This means that the Company will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities, and this includes not recognizing ROU assets and lease liabilities, for existing short-term leases of those assets in transition. The Company also currently expects to elect the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for its leases. All existing leases are reported under this rule.

Under ASC 840, leases were classified as either capital or operating, and the classification significantly impacted the effect the contract had on the company’s financial statements. Capital lease classification resulted in a liability that was recorded on a company’s balance sheet, whereas operating leases did not impact the balance sheet.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment is stated at the historical cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation on property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets for both financial and income tax reporting purposes as follows:

Schedule of Estimated Useful Lives of Property and Equipment

Machinery and equipment  3-153-5 years 
Furniture and equipment  71-15 years 
Vehicles  2-5 years 
Leasehold improvements  5-30 years
Building31.5 years
Production molding5 years 

Expenditures for renewals and betterments are capitalized while repairs and maintenance costs are normally charged to the statement of operations in the year in which they are incurred. In situations where it can be clearly demonstrated that the expenditure has resulted in an increase in the future economic benefits expected to be obtained from the use of the asset, the expenditure is capitalized as an additional cost of the asset.

Upon sale or disposal of an asset, the historical cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization of such asset were removed from their respective accounts and any gain or loss is recorded in the statements of income.

The Company reviews the carrying value of property, plant, and equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition and other economic factors. Based on this assessment, no impairment expenses for property, plant, and equipment was recorded in operating expenses during the years ended June 30, 20212022 and 2020.2021.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets, which include property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.

 

-47-
Table of Contents

Recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the assets. Fair value is generally determined using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable. Based on its review, there was $43,800$0 and $2,066,958$43,800 impairment loss of its long-lived assets as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, and 2020, respectively.

Income taxes

We accountThe Company accounts for income taxes underusing the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences betweenapproach that requires the financial statement carrying amountsrecognition of existing assets and liabilities and their perspective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of a change in tax rates isevents that have been recognized in incomethe Company’s financial statements or tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, the Company generally considers all expected future events other than enactments of changes in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are recorded, when necessary, to reducetax law. For deferred tax assets, tomanagement evaluates the amount expectedprobability of realizing the future benefits of such assets. The Company establishes valuation allowances for its deferred tax assets when evidence suggests it is unlikely that the assets will be fully realized.

The Company recognizes the tax effects of an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not to be realized.

As a resultsustained based solely on its technical merits as of the implementation of certain provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740’’), which clarifies the accountingreporting date and disclosure for uncertaintythen only in tax position, as defined, ASC 740 seeksan amount more likely than not to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspect of the recognition and measurement related to accounting for income taxes.

We adopted the provisions of ASC 740 as of October 2, 2008 and have analyzed filing positions in each of the federal and state jurisdictions where we are required to file income tax returns, as well as open tax years in these jurisdictions. We have identified the U.S. federal and California as our ‘major’ tax jurisdictions and generally, we remain subject to Internal Revenue Service examination after our 2013 U.S. federal income tax returns. However, we have certain tax attribute carryforwards, which will remain subject tobe sustained upon review and adjustment by the relevant tax authorities untilauthorities. Income tax positions that previously failed to meet the statute of limitations closes with respect tomore likely than not threshold are recognized in the yearfirst subsequent financial reporting period in which such attributes are utilized.

We believe that our income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and do not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to our financial position. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain incomethreshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions have been recorded pursuant to ASC 740. In addition, we didthat no longer meet the more likely than not record a cumulative effect adjustment related tothreshold are derecognized in the adoption of ASC 740.

We have not taken any uncertain positions that would necessitate recording of tax related liability as of June 30, 2021 and 2020.expense.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired in business combinations accounted for under the acquisition method. Intangible assets represent purchased intangible assets including developed technology and in-process research and development, technologies acquired or licensed from other companies, customer relationships, non-compete covenants, backlog, and trademarks and tradenames. Purchased finite-lived intangible assets are capitalized and amortized over their estimated useful lives. Technologies acquired or licensed from other companies, customer relationships, non-compete covenants, backlog, and trademarks and tradenames are capitalized and amortized over the lesser of the terms of the agreement or estimated useful life. We capitalizecapitalized the cannabis cultivation license acquired as part of a business combination.

Stock basedStock-based compensation

Stock basedStock-based compensation cost to employees is measured at the date of grant, based on the calculated fair value of the stock-based award, and will be recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the award). We estimate the fair value of employee stock options granted using the Binomial Option Pricing Model. Key assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options will include the exercise price of the award, the fair value of our common stock on the date of grant, the expected option term, the risk-free interest rate at the date of grant, the expected volatility and the expected annual dividend yield on our common stock. We use our company’s own data among other information to estimate the expected price volatility and the expected forfeiture rate. Share-basedStock-based compensation awards issued to non-employees for services rendered are recorded at either the fair value of the services rendered or the fair value of the share-basedstock-based payment, whichever is more readily determinable.

Loss per share

We calculate basic earningsloss per share (“EPS”) by dividing our net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, without considering common stock equivalents. Diluted BPSloss per share is computed by dividing net income or net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and the weighted average number of dilutive common stock equivalents, such as options and warrants. Options and warrants are only included in the calculation of diluted EPSearning per share when their effect is dilutive.

Fair value of financial instruments

ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1-1 - observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 - include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

Level 3 - unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

The Company used Level 23 inputs for its valuation methodology for the derivative liabilities for conversion feature of the convertible notes and warrants in determining the fair value using Latticethe Binomial option-pricing model withfor the following assumption inputs:years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Derivative instruments

The fair value of derivative instruments is recorded and shown separately under current liabilities. Changes in the fair value of derivatives liability are recorded in the consolidated statement of operations under non-operating income (expense).

Our Company evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a weighted average Black-Scholes- MertonBinomial option-pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Segment Reporting

FASB ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting’’Reporting”, requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the Company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company.

The Company’s financial statements reflect that substantially all of its operations are conducted in threetwo industry segments – (1) paper and paper-based products such as paper cups, cup lids, food containers, etc., which accounts approx. 44%for approximately 52% of the Company’s revenues;revenues for the year ended June 30, 2022; and (2) Non-medical supplies such as non-medical fascial mask, which accounts approx. 0% of the Company’s total revenues; (3) Cannabiscannabis products delivery service and sales, which accounts approx. 56%accounted for approximately 48% of the Company’s total revenues.revenues for the years ended June 30, 2022.

New accounting pronouncements

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. The pronouncement simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes”. The pronouncement also improves consistent application of and simplifies GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 will bewas effective for us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, with early adoption permitted. We are still evaluatingThe adoption had no material impact on the impact this guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.statements in the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01, Investments - Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivative and Hedging (Topic 815), which clarifies the interaction of rules for equity securities, the equity method of accounting, and forward contracts and purchase options on certain types of securities. The guidance clarifies how to account for the transition into and out of the equity method of accounting when considering observable transactions under the measurement alternative. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim reporting periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company have adopted this ASU on the consolidated financial statements in the year ended June 30, 2021. The adoption had no material impact on the consolidated financial statements in the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815 – 40)(“ASU 2020-06”). ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. The ASU is part of the FASB’s simplification initiative, which aims to reduce unnecessary complexity in GAAP. The ASU’s amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-06 on its financial statements.

On March 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-03, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Accounting Alternative for Evaluating Triggering Events(“ASU 2021-03”). The amendments in ASU 2021-03 provide private companies and not-for-profit entities with an accounting alternative to perform the goodwill impairment triggering event evaluation as required in ASC 350-20, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Goodwill, as of the end of the reporting period, whether the reporting period is an interim or annual period. An entity that elects this alternative is not required to monitor for goodwill impairment triggering events during the reporting period but, instead, should evaluate the facts and circumstances as of the end of each reporting period to determine whether a triggering event exists and, if so, whether it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired. The amendments in this ASU are effective on a prospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for both interim and annual financial statements that have not yet been issued as of March 30, 2021. The Company adopted this ASU on the consolidated financial statements in the year ended June 30, 2021.

Assumptions in the Allocations of Purchase Price

Management prepared the purchase price allocations for Lemon Glow relied upon reports of a third party valuation expert to calculate the fair value of certain acquired assets, which primarily included identifiable intangible assets, and property and equipment.

Estimates of fair value require management to make significant estimates and assumptions. The goodwill recognized is attributable primarily to the acquired workforce, and other benefits that the Company believes will result from integrating the operations of the Lemon Glow with the operations of Sugarmade.Sugarmade. Certain liabilities included in the purchase price allocations are based on management’s best estimates of the amounts to be paid or settled and based on information available at the time the purchase price allocations were prepared.

-46-
Table of Contents

The fair value of the identified intangible assets acquired from the Lemon Glow was estimated using an income approach. Under the income approach, an intangible asset’s fair value is equal to the present value of future economic benefits to be derived from ownership of the asset. Indications of value are developed by discounting future net cash flows to their present value at market-based rates of return. More specifically, the fair value of the cannabis cultivation license was determined using the MPEEM method. MPEEM is an income approach to fair value measurement attributable to a specific intangible asset being valued from the asset grouping’s overall cash-flow stream. MPEEM isolates the expected future discounted cash-flow stream to its net present value. Significant factors considered in the calculation of the cannabis cultivation license intangible assets were the risks inherent in the development process, including the likelihood of government regulation and market acceptance.

In connection with the acquisition of Lemon Glow, the Company has assumed certain operating liabilities which are included in the respective purchase price allocations above.

Goodwill recorded in connection with Lemon Glow was approximately $757,648.$757,648. The Company does not expect to deduct any of the acquired goodwill for tax purposes.

6. VIE

On February 7, 2020, the Company entered into a share sale and purchase agreement (the “Indigo Agreement”) with Indigo Dye Group Corp. (“Indigo”), a corporation located in Sacramento, California. Indigo carries on business as a cannabis seller and delivery business under the name BudCars. The major Cannabis Products include Flower, Edibles, Vape Cartridges, Pre-Rolls, & Concentrates, etc. All the products are finished goods. In addition, Indigo is operating a non-store front retail delivery business (Type-9 License# C9-0000286) in California.

Pursuant to the terms of the Indigo Agreement, the Company agreed to invest $700,000 (the “Investment”) into Indigo for inventory, equipment, and marketing expenses. The Investment shall be made in twelve monthly equal installments of $58,333 with the acceleration of the payment schedule possible depending on business growth, cash flow needs and capital availability.

In exchange, the Company received 40% of Indigo’s issued shares upon execution of the final agreement. The value used for this transaction is $1,750,000 and each percentage (1%) of the company is worth $17,500. In the event that the Company is not able to make a payment of $58,333 in any month, it will have 90 days to cure the default. On the 91st day the investment plan will cease and the amount of invested capital will be calculated based on an enterprise value of $1,750,000 or $17,500 per 1% of owned equity.

In addition, subject to the terms and conditions of the Indigo Agreement, the Company has the option to acquire an additional 30% interest in Indigo. Upon exercise of the option, the Company would obtain control over Indigo.

From late May 2020 until September 30, 2020, the Company was actively involved in development of Indigo’s operations with power to direct the activities and significantly impact Indigo’s economic performance. The Company also has obligations to absorb losses and right to receive benefits from Indigo. As such, in accordance with ASC 810-10-25-38A through 25-38J, Indigo is consolidated as an VIE of the Company.

Starting on October 1, 2020, the Company began to explore new locations via purchasing equity into other Brand/Franchises to cover delivery for the entire state of California. Therefore, the Company is not likely to proceed with the option to acquire the additional 30% interest in Indigo at this time. In addition, the Company is no longer involved in day-to-day operations and the Company will be pursuing cannabis delivery moving forward, independently from Indigo Dye Group. As of June 30, 2021, the Company continues to hold approximately 32% of the ownership of Indigo but ceased to have a controlling interest in the partnership and it was deconsolidated and recorded as an investment in nonconsolidated affiliate at its $564,819 estimated fair value and changed to equity method of accounting. See footnote #7 Non-controlling interest and deconsolidation of VIE for details.

7. Non-controlling5. Noncontrolling Interest and Deconsolidation of VIE

Starting in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, the Company had a variable interest entity Indigo Dye Group,(Indigo), for accounting purposes. The Company owned approximately 29%29% of Indigo’s outstanding equity and as of September 30, 2020, involved its day-to-day operations, which gave the Company the power to direct the activities of Indigo that most significantly impact its economic performance. Accordingly, the Company recognized the carrying value of the non-controlling interest as a component of total shareholders’stockholders’ equity, and the consolidated financial statements included the financial position and results of operations of Indigo as of and for the periods ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020.

Starting on October 1, 2020, the Company plansplanned to open new locations via purchasing equity in other Brand/Franchisesbrand/franchises to cover delivery for the entire California. Therefore, the Company is not likely at this time to exercise its option to acquire the additional 30%30% interest in Indigo. In addition, the Company is no longer involved in day-to-day operations of Indigo and going forward, the Company intends to pursue cannabis delivery independent from Indigo. As of October 1, 2020, the Company ceased to have control over the day-to-day business of Indigo and it was deconsolidated and recorded as an investment in nonconsolidated affiliate at its $505,449$505,449 estimated fair value and changed to equity method of accounting. Pursuant to the terms of the Indigo agreement, if the Company determines, in its discretion not to continue to make monthly payments, its 40%40% ownership interest in Indigo will be decreased according to the payment then made. As of December 31, 2021,2020, the Company made $59,370$59,370 in additional payments, and holds approximately 32%32% of the ownership of Indigo. (See Note 6)

The net asset value of the Company’s variable interest in Indigo Dye Group was approximately $326,812 $326,812 as of October 1, 2020, the date of deconsolidation. The value of the Company’s variable interest on the date of deconsolidation was based on management’s estimate of the fair value of Indigo at that time. The Company concluded that the market approach was the most appropriate method to determine the fair value of the entity on the date of deconsolidation, given that Indigo raised equity funding from third-party investors around the same period (i.e., level 2 inputs). The Company recognized a gain on deconsolidation of approximately $313,928 $313,928 with no related tax impact, which is included in other income, net on the consolidated statement of operations. As the Company is not obligated to fund future losses of Indigo, the carrying amount is the Company’s maximum risk of loss and accounted as equity method investment in affiliates in our consolidated financial statements as of and for the period ended September 30, 2021. Due to the Company had no access to Indigo’s book during the year ended June 30, 2021.2022, the Company recorded cost method investment in affiliates at $441,407 as of June 30, 2022. As of June 30, 2021, the Company recorded equity method investment in affiliates at $441,407,441,407, net with $81,725$81,725 loss from equity method investment.

8. LitigationAs part of pivoting our business strategy, the company negotiated with Indigo Dye Group Corp. (“Indigo”) to exchange our 32% stake in Budcars for a stake in a distribution and indoor cultivation company in Santa Rosa, California. The company has already executed a share exchange agreement with Indigo. However, the final documents and terms of the new company are still being finalized. The company expects to complete the documents and announce the transition to new business post filing of this 10K.

6. Legal Proceedings

From time to time and in the course of business, we may become involved in various legal proceedings seeking monetary damages and other relief. The amount of the ultimate liability, if any, from such claims cannot be determined. As of June 30, 2021,2022, there were no legal claims pending or threatened against the Company that, in the opinion of our management, would be likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, as of the date of this filing, we were involved in the following legal proceedings.

On December 11, 2013, the Company was served with a complaint from two convertible note holders and investors in the Company. On February 21, 2017, the Company signed a settlement agreement with the plaintiffs in the matter of Hannan vs. Sugarmade. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the companyCompany agreed to pay the plaintiffs $227,000$227,000 to settle all claims against the Company, which included the payoff of two notes outstanding. The parties had estimated the value of the notes at approximately $80,000.$80,000. Third parties had purchased the two notes during the year ended June 30, 2020. As of June 30, 2020, third parties had purchased two (2) notes of approximately $80,000. As of June 30, 2021,2022, there remains a balance, plus accrued interest on the $227,000$227,000 and on the $80,000$80,000 due under the notes.

There can be no assurances the ultimate liability relative to these lawsuits will not exceed what is outlined above.

9. 7. Cash

Cash and cash equivalents consist of amounts held as bank deposits and highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.

From time to time, we may maintain bank balances in interest bearing accounts in excess of the $250,000$250,000 currently insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation for interest bearing accounts (there is currently no insurance limit for deposits in noninterest bearing accounts). We have not experienced any losses with respect to cash. Management believes our Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to its cash.

Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Company shall not issue any Drawdown Notice Shares if the issuance of such shares would exceed the aggregate number of shares of common stock which the Company may issue without breaching the Company’s obligations under the rules and regulations of the principal market upon which the common stock trades, or if the issuance would violate such principal market’s shareholder approval requirements.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

 

None.

 

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our senior management, including our Chief Executive Officer, who is also our Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2021,2022, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer concluded that as of June 30, 20212022 our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective such that the information relating to us required to be disclosed in our SEC reports: (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms; and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

(b) Changes in internal controls over financial reporting

 

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021,2022, there were no changes to the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

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

 Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;

Table of Contents

 
Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and
   
 Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

 

Our Chief Executive Officer conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2021,2022, based on the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control – Integrated Framework – 2013 (COSO 2013 Framework) and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based upon such evaluation, our management concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2021,2022, based on the COSO framework criteria, as more fully described below. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal controls over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.

 

The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were the relative inexperience of our management and supporting personnel with the compliance and control requirements of U.S. GAAP and SEC reporting compliance.

 

We have taken, and are continuing to take, certain actions to remediate the material weakness related to our lack of U.S. GAAP experience. We plan to hire additional credentialed professional staff and consulting professionals with greater knowledge and experience of U.S. GAAP and related regulatory requirements to oversee our financial reporting process in order to ensure our compliance with U.S. GAAP and other relevant securities laws. In addition, we plan to provide additional training to our accounting personnel on U.S. GAAP, and other regulatory requirements regarding the preparation of financial statements.

 

Notwithstanding the above identified material weakness, the Company’s management believes that its condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented and that this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report.

Audit and Non-Audit Service Preapproval Policy

 

In accordance with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, our board of directors has adopted an informal approval policy that it believes will result in an effective and efficient procedure to preapprove services performed by the independent registered public accounting firm.

 

Audit Services. Audit services include the annual financial statement audit (including quarterly reviews) and other procedures required to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm to be able to form an opinion on our consolidated financial statements. The board of directors preapproves specified annual audit services engagement terms and fees and other specified audit fees. All other audit services must be specifically preapproved by the board of directors. The board of directors monitors the audit services engagement and may approve, if necessary, any changes in terms, conditions, and fees resulting from changes in audit scope or other items.

 

Audit-Related Services. Audit-related services are assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our consolidated financial statements, which historically have been provided to us by the independent registered public accounting firm and are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence. The board of directors has approved specified audit-related services within preapproved fee levels. All other audit-related services must be preapproved by the board of directors.

 

Tax Services. The board of directors preapproves specified tax services that it believes would not impair the independence of the independent registered public accounting firm and that are consistent with the SEC rules and guidance. The board of directors must specifically approve all other tax services.

 

All Other Services. Other services are services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm that do not fall within the established audit, audit-related, and tax services categories. The board of directors preapproves specified other services that do not fall within any of the specified prohibited categories of services.

 

Procedures. All proposals for services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm, which must include a detailed description of the services to be rendered and the amount of corresponding fees, are submitted to the chairman of the board of directors and the chief financial officer. The chief financial officer authorizes services that have been preapproved by the board of directors. The chief financial officer submits requests or applications to provide services that have not been preapproved by the board of directors, which must include an affirmation by the chief financial officer and the independent registered public accounting firm that the request or application is consistent with the SEC rules on auditor independence, to the board of directors (or its chair or any of its other members pursuant to delegated authority) for approval.
