CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Quarterly Report”) includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). All statements, other than statements of historical fact included in this report, regarding our strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenue, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management are forward-looking statements. When used in this Quarterly Report, the words “could,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and assumptions about future events and are based on currently available information as to the outcome and timing of future events. When considering forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind the risk factors and other cautionary statements described under, but not limited to, the heading “Item 1A. Risk Factors” included in the Annual Report of Generation Hemp, Inc. (the “Company”) on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20202021 (the “Annual Report”) and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

 

Forward-looking statements may include statements about:

the risk that our results could be adversely affected by natural disaster, public health crises (including, without limitation, the COVID-19, outbreak), political crises, negative global climate patterns, or other catastrophic events;

 

 the marketability of our products;

 

 financial condition and liquidity of our customers;

 

 competition in the hemp markets;

 

 industry and market conditions;

 

 requisition of our services by major customers and our ability to renew processing and services contracts;

 

 credit and performance risks associated with customers, suppliers, banks and other financial counterparties;

 

 availability, timing of delivery and costs of key supplies, capital equipment or commodities;

 

 our future capital requirements and our ability to raise additional capital to finance our activities;

 

 the future trading of our common stock;

 

 legal and regulatory risks associated with OTC Markets;

 

 our ability to operate as a public company;

 

 our ability to protect our proprietary information;

 

 general economic and business conditions; the volatility of our operating results and financial condition;

 

ii

 our ability to attract or retain qualified senior management personnel and research and development staff;

 

 timing for completion of major acquisitions or capital projects;

  

 our ability to obtain additional financing on favorable terms, if required, to complete acquisitions as currently contemplated or to fund the operations and growth of our business;

 

 operating or other expenses or changes in the timing thereof;

 

 compliance with stringent laws and regulations, as well as changes in the regulatory environment, the adoption of new or revised laws, regulations and permitting requirements, especially with respect to the industry in which we operate;

 

 potential legal proceedings and regulatory inquiries against us; and

 

 other risks identified in this report that are not historical.

ii

 

We caution you that these forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions, which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond our control, including risks specific to the industry in which we operate. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment and new risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. Although we believe that our plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by the forward-looking statements we make in this Quarterly Report are reasonable, we can give no assurance that these plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved or occur, and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results.

 

All forward-looking statements, expressed or implied, included in this report are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement and speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report. This cautionary statement should also be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that we or persons acting on our behalf may issue.

 

Except as otherwise required by applicable law, we disclaim any duty to update any forward-looking statements, all of which are expressly qualified by the statements in this section, to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report.

Generation Hemp, Inc.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

1. Business

 

Generation Hemp, Inc. (the “Company”), formerly known as Home Treasure Finders, Inc. (“HTF”), was incorporated on August 21, 2021 in the State of Delaware. The Company was originally incorporated as Home Treasure Finders, Inc. (“HTF”) on July 28, 2008 in the State of Colorado. On November 27, 2019, HTF purchased approximately 94% of the common stock of Energy Hunter Resources, Inc. (“EHR”) in a series of transactions accounted for as a reverse merger (the “Transaction”).merger. Upon closing, of the Transaction, HTF changed its name to Generation Hemp, Inc.

 

On January 11, 2021, we completed the acquisition of certain assets of Halcyon Thruput, LLC (“Halcyon”). With this acquisition, we commenced providing post-harvest and midstream services to hemp growers by drying, processing, cleaning and stripping harvested hemp directly from the field and wetbaled at our 48,000 square foot leased facility located in Hopkinsville, Kentucky. Additionally, theThe Company also offers safe storage services for processed hemp, which enables farmers to maximize strategic market timing. In August 2021, the Company launched its smallWe market two retail products, Gas Monkey Spill-Jack, an all-natural, plant-based, sustainable, and biodegradable loose absorbent, and Rowdy Rooster, an animal bedding consumer goods product, line (“Rowdy Rooster”)each made from the hemp hurd byproduct that is produced from itsour hemp processing operations.

 

We also generate revenue from rental of our “Cannabis Zoned” (Hemp) warehouse property located in Denver, Colorado currently leased to an unaffiliated hemp seed company.

 

As of September 30, 2021,2022, EHR held an approximate 8% working interest in an oil & gas property located in Cochran County, Texas within the Slaughter-Levelland Field of the San Andres formation in the Northwest Shelf of West Texas. EHR’s oil & gas activities are currently held for sale and are presented in these consolidated financial statements as discontinued operations for each of the periods presented.

 

Our management team has been and continues to actively review acquisition candidates involved in the hemp industry that operate within a number of vertical businesses, predominantly within the midstream sector that are attractive to us and are within the hemp supply chain. Additionally, the Company has been studying the Bitcoin mining space and anticipates future activity in this business sector.

 

Liquidity and Going ConcernThe Company is dependent upon obtaining additional funding to continue ongoing operations and to pursue its strategy and execute its acquisition plans.

 

In the nine months ended September 30, 2021,2022, the Company used $2.7$1.0 million of cash for its operating activities. At September 30, 2021,2022, the Company’s current liabilities, including financing obligations due within one year, totaled $4.7$6.1 million as compared with its current assets of $276 thousand. Cash payments under several financing obligations were initially due in September and October of 2021. As disclosed in Notes 5 and 6 below, these were subsequently amended to extend these payments by one to six months.$1.0 million.

 

The Company will continue to pursue additional capital raising opportunities in order to fund future acquisitions and meet its obligations as they become due. We may not be successful in obtaining additional financing needed. In the event financing cannot be obtained, the Company may not be able to satisfy these plans and obligations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Our Business – Our business, results of operations and financial condition have been adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, beginning in mid-March 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic and measures taken to contain it have subjected our business, results of operations, financial condition, stock price and liquidity to a number of material risks and uncertainties, all of which may continue or may worsen.

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation – These interim financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain disclosures have been condensed or omitted from these financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for complete consolidated financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.2021.

 


In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly present the financial position as of, and the results of operations for, all periods presented. In preparing the accompanying financial statements, management has made certain estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures of contingencies. Actual results may differ from those estimates. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period’s consolidated financial statements and related footnotes to conform them to the current period presentation. Intercompany balances and transactions between consolidated entities are eliminated.

 


Revenue Recognition – Post-harvest and midstream services revenue is typically determined based on volumes processed at agreed-upon contractual prices and is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with our customers are satisfied. This occurs when control of the product is transferred to our customers upon completion of our processing.

Rental revenue is recognized based on the contractual cash rental payments for the period. Oil & gas revenue is recognized for discontinued operations based on delivered quantities in the amount of the consideration to which the Company is entitled.

Stock-based Compensation – We account for employee stock-based compensation using the fair value method. Compensation cost for equity incentive awards is based on the fair value of the equity instrument generally on the date of grant and is recognized over the requisite service period. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur.

Fair Value Measurement – Our financial assets and liabilities consist of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and notes payable.indebtedness. The fair values of these instruments approximate their carrying amounts at each reporting date.

 

The Company’s non-financial assets measured at fair value on non-recurring basis include impairment measurementsDeferred Revenue – In July 2022, the Company entered into an agreement for the sale of oil66,782 pounds of dried hemp biomass from its inventories on-hand for a sales price of $1.50 per pound. Deliveries and gas propertiespayment of the $100,173 sales proceeds are scheduled monthly through December 2022 and warrants issuedare reported as partdeferred revenue in the consolidated balance sheets. We expect to recognize revenue for these amounts when the contract is completed and product is shipped in the fourth quarter of financing transactions. These are considered Level 3 measurements as they involve significant unobservable inputs.2022.

 

Major Customer and Concentration of Credit Risk – We estimate an allowance for doubtful accounts based on an analysis of specific customers, taking into consideration the age of past due accounts and an assessment of the customer’s ability to pay. An allowance for doubtful accounts was not needed as of September 30, 20212022 or December 31, 2020.2021.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021,2022, one customer accounted for approximately 99% and 90%all of our post-harvest and midstream services revenue, respectively. Amountsrevenue. A total of $656,344 was outstanding from this customer represented 99% of total accountsas a receivable at September 30, 2021.2022.

 

Our rental revenue is derived from a single lessee on a commercial warehouse owned by the Company. There were no amounts due from this customer at September 30, 20212022 or December 31, 2020.2021.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements – In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 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): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Limiting the accounting models results in fewer embedded conversion features being separately recognized from the host contract as compared with current GAAP. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting and (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital. ASU 2020-06 also amends the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity to reduce form-over-substance-based accounting conclusions. The Company elected to early adopt ASU 2020-06 in 2021. Adoption of this new guidance had no impact on its financial statements at the date of adoption but is applicable to newly issued instruments.

There are no other new accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Paycheck Protection Program Loan – Congress created the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) to provide forgivable loans to eligible small businesses facing economic hardship to retain U.S. employees on their payroll during the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) pandemic.

PPP loan recipients may be eligible to have their loans forgiven if the funds were used for eligible expenses over the eight-week coverage period commencing when the loan was originally disbursed. The amount of forgiveness may be reduced if the percentage of eligible expenses attributed to nonpayroll expenses exceeds 25% of the loan, if employee headcount decreases, or compensation decreases by more than 25% for each employee making less than $100,000 per year, unless the reduced headcount or compensation levels are restored.

Litigation – From time to time, we are subject to various litigation and other claims in the normal course of business. Below is a discussion of specific matters. We cannot predictestimate the ultimate outcome of these matters.

Generation Hemp, Inc. v. Colorado Mill Equipment, LLC

The Defendant sold to the Company a faulty piece of equipment for $16,000 and will not refund to the Company the purchase price after repeated attempts to return their equipment. An original lawsuit filed by the Company against Colorado Mill Equipment in January 2022 in Dallas County was subsequently dismissed due to jurisdiction. A second lawsuit was filed in El Paso County, Colorado and is currently pending.

Halcyon Thruput, LLC, Plaintiff v. United National Insurance Company, Defendant, United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division, Case No. 3:21-CV-3136-K.

Halcyon Thruput, LLC (Halcyon) obtained an all-risks commercial insurance policy, including an Equipment Breakdown Endorsement (Policy) from United National Insurance Company (UNIC) to provide substantial coverages for Halcyon Thruput LLC’s (Halcyon) $1,203,735 hemp processing dryer (Dryer) at its facility in Hopkinsville, Kentucky. During the Policy period, the Dryer caught fire due to the Dryer being defectively designed.

While UNIC paid a number of Halcyon’s claims, Halcyon’s claim for the cost of the replacement Dryer of $1,498,848 was denied as described below.

Buyer, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement as twice amended, then acquired all the assets of Halcyon, except for the right to the proceeds of UNIC’s insurance policy since the Policy prohibited assignment. Halcyon and Buyer agreed that Buyer’s principal, Gary C. Evans, had the right to control the litigation, engage counsel for Halcyon and make all decisions relating to any proceeds received in the litigation by settlement or otherwise.

Halcyon’s suit against UNIC, which was removed to federal court, seeks $796,865.53 (the cost of the replacement dryer of $1,498,848, less a credit for $583,508.47 previously paid by UNIC to Halcyon for the Dryer fire=$915,339.53) plus statutory interest on that sum from August 10, 2020 for violating the Texas Insurance Code’s requirement that claims be promptly paid, additional statutory penalties, and attorneys’ fees. Certain documents have been executed between the Company, Halcyon and legal counsel, which provide for a sharing of costs and expenses and awards, if any, against UNIC. Mediation of the case was held in April 2022 where no agreement was reached by the parties. Depositions of the Company’s expert witnesses were completed in July 2022 and of UNIC’s representatives in September 2022.

In August 2022, the Company received a second payment from UNIC of $357,143 as a partial settlement of this claim.

Series A Preferred Stock Our Series A Preferred Stock was originally issued in connection with HTF’s acquisition of EHR in 2019. On September 8, 2021, holders of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock elected to convert such shares into shares of the Company’s common stock. As a result, 6,328,948 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were converted into 75,947,376 shares of common stock, with each share of Series A Preferred Stock converting into 12 shares of restricted common stock pursuant to the applicable Certificate of Designations. The Series A Preferred Stock was originally issued in connection with the Company’s merger transaction completed in December 2019.

Series B Preferred Stock Units – On December 30, 2020, the Company sold to certain accredited investors, including Gary C. Evans, our Chief Executive Officer, an aggregate of 135 preferred stock units comprised of (i) one share of Series B Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, no par value, and (ii) one warrant exercisable for 50,000 shares of common stock of the Company until December 30, 2022 at an exercise price of $0.352 per share.

The sale of the preferred stock units for $10,000 each resulted in aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $1.35 million, before deducting estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. Substantially all of the proceeds raised in the offering were used to fund the acquisition of assets of Halcyon, expenses related thereto and for general corporate purposes.


Each share of Series B Preferred Stock is initially convertible into 25,000 shares of common stock, subject to adjustment. Holders of Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends of 6.00% per annum based on the stated value equal to $10,000 per share. Except as otherwise required by law, the Series B Preferred Stock does not have voting rights. However, as long as any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Company will not, without the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Series B Preferred Stock, (a) alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series B Preferred Stock, (b) alter or amend the related certificate of designation, (c) amend its certificate of incorporation or other charter documents in any manner that adversely affects any rights of the holders of Series B Preferred Stock, (d) repay, repurchase or offer to repay, repurchase or otherwise acquire more than a de minimis number of shares of its common stock, (e) enter into any agreement with respect to any of the foregoing, or (f) pay cash dividends or distributions on any equity securities of the Company other than pursuant to the terms of the outstanding Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock does not have a preference upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company.

Beginning the later of June 30, 2021Any or the effectiveness of any registration statement registering the underlying common shares, all or any portion of the Series B Preferred Stock may be converted, at their holder’s option, into 25,000 shares of common stock, as adjusted for any stock dividends, splits, combinations or similar events.


At any time after the occurrence of a “Qualifying Event,” the Company, upon 5-day written notice, shall have the right to cause each share of Series B Preferred Stock (and all accrued in-kind dividends with respect thereto) to be converted into common stock. For purposes of this automatic conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock, a “Qualifying Event” shall have occurred if (A) (1) the rolling five-trading day volume-weighted average trading price of shares of the common stock exceeds $1.00, and (2) there shall be an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended covering all of the shares of common stock which would be issuable upon conversion of all of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock or (B) the Company closes a firm commitment underwriting of the common stock on a Form S-1 Registration Statement with aggregate gross proceeds of at least $5,000,000 at a price per share equal to or greater than $1.00. In each instance, a conversion may not be made unless the Company has filed an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation effecting an increase in its authorized common stock so that the Company has a sufficient number of authorized and unissued shares of common stock so as to permit the conversion of all outstanding shares.

The Series B Preferred Stock may be redeemed by the Company for its stated value, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, at any time. Initially, redemption payments of 12.5% each of the total amount of Series B Preferred Stock then outstanding plus accrued dividends were due from the Company to each Holder of Series B Preferred Stock at the end of each calendar quarter of 2021. The first required redemption payments totaling $137,500 were made in April 2021.

In May, June and October of 2021, the three holders of the Series B Preferred Stock, including the Company’s chief executive officer, entered into transactions in which they accepted the mandatory redemption payment required pursuant to the Series B Preferred Stock certificate of designation in a number of Series B Units to effectively waive the redemption requirement. All other terms of the Series B Units remain unchanged and the holders’ ownership interest in the Series B Preferred Units remains the same as it was before such transactions.

Risk Factors,” all of which are difficult to predict. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed may not occur. We do not undertake any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements except as otherwise required by applicable law.

Overview

We are a holding company active within the “hemp” space. We were incorporated on August 21, 2021 in the State of Delaware. The Company was originally incorporated on July 28, 2008 in the State of Colorado. On November 27, 2019, we purchased approximately 94% of the common stock of Energy Hunter Resources, Inc. (“EHR”) in a series of transactions accounted for as a reverse merger (the “Transaction”).merger. Upon closing, of the Transaction, we changed our name to Generation Hemp, Inc.

There is limited historical financial information about our Company upon which to base an evaluation of our future performance. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in the hemp business. We are subject to the risks associated with the regulatory environment in the industry in which we operate. In addition, we are subject to risks inherent in a small company, including limited capital resources, delays and cost overruns due to price and cost increases. There is no assurance that future financing will be available to our Company on acceptable terms. Additional equity financing could result in dilution to existing shareholders.

On January 11, 2021, we completed the acquisition of certain assets of Halcyon Thruput, LLC (“Halcyon”). With this acquisition, we commenced providingWe provide post-harvest and midstream services to growers by drying, processing, cleaning and stripping harvested hemp directly from the field and wetbaled at our 48,000 square foot facility located in Hopkinsville, Kentucky. Additionally, theThe Company also offers safe storage services for processed hemp, which enables farmers to maximize strategic market timing. In August 2021, the Company launched itsWe market two retail products, Gas Monkey Spill-Jack, an all-natural, plant-based, sustainable, and biodegradable loose absorbent, and Rowdy Rooster, an animal bedding consumer goods product, lineeach made from the hemp hurd byproduct that is produced from itsour hemp processing operations.

In 2020, Halcyon had revenues of $3.0 million for the processing of approximately 8.5 million pounds of hemp biomass. With additional contracts executed in 2021, we expect to process at least 10 million pounds during the remainder of 2021 and the first six months of 2022.

We also generate revenue from rental of our “Cannabis Zoned” (Hemp) warehouse property located in Denver, Colorado currently leased to a hemp seed company.

As of September 30, 2021,2022, EHR held an approximate 8% working interest in an oil & gas property located in Cochran County, Texas within the Slaughter-Levelland Field of the San Andres formation in the Northwest Shelf of West Texas. EHR’s oil & gas activities are currently held for sale and are presented in thesethe consolidated financial statements as discontinued operationsoperations.

Recent Activities

New Business Line – During the second quarter of 2022, management and the Board decided to enter a new but related line of business – Bitcoin mining. Management determined after research that hemp biomass can be burned in a biomass boiler to generate heat and steam to drive a turbine for eachgenerating electricity. The BTU value of hemp is similar to wood waste generated at saw mills. Hemp plants grow to maturity within six to eight months whereas trees mature in excess of ten years.

The Company subsequently formed a new company, GenCrypto, LLC (a Delaware limited liability company) with a 50% partner, Cerberus Digital, LLC, an affiliate of Cryptech Solutions, Inc. Cryptech is one of the periods presented.largest resellers of Bitcoin mining equipment in North America.


GenCrypto now has approximately ten different Bitcoin locations identified and either under contract, under letter of intent, or in final negotiating status, located in two states and in Costa Rica. All of these site locations are deemed “green” based upon the power being provided either from the local utility or co-op. They range in power size from 1.1 megawatts to 50 megawatts. GenCrypto has been contacted by several larger Bitcoin mining operators concerning utilizing some of these mining locations under “hosting” arrangements.

The Company anticipates closing its first acquisition which is currently operational in November 2022.

Grant Funding Opportunity – The U.S. Department of Agriculture has recently made available a funding opportunity for the Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities projects of up to $1 billion in order to build markets and invest in America’s climate-smart farmers, ranchers and forest owners to strengthen U.S. rural and agricultural communities. Within this opportunity is the goal to develop markets and promote the resulting climate-smart commodities. The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary GENH Halcyon Acquisition, LLC, is an established floral hemp processor that has provided years of drying, cleaning, stripping and storing hemp, along with acting as a conduit between the supply side of hemp through farmers and the demand side of hemp through extraction labs, buyers and downstream products. Since its inception, the Company has also been a proponent and developer of climate-smart applications of fiber hemp for industry and has helped develop two new U.S. market products to utilize hemp hurd that was previously a waste product.

On May 6, 2022, the Company applied for a substantial grant under this funding opportunity that will contractually engage farmers to grow specific hemp genetics, thereby providing them lower risk costs that will be included in grant funding. Under this project, the Company will also build out a hemp supercenter from the nucleus of its current, established operation that will provide the necessary processing capacity for all varieties of hemp at one central location. This will include storage, logistics, testing and tracking capabilities. The Company has obtained a large group of commitments from industry players who have agreed to participate in the program.

Liquidity – The Company is dependent upon obtaining additional funding to continue ongoing operations and to pursue its strategy and execute its acquisition plans.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2021,2022, the Company used $2.7$1.0 million of cash for its operating activities. At September 30, 2021,2022, the Company’s current liabilities, including financing obligations due within one year, totaled $4.7$6.1 million as compared with its current assets of $276 thousand. Cash payments under several financing obligations were initially due in September and October of 2021. These were subsequently amended to extend these payments by one to six months.$1.0 million.

The Company will continue to pursue additional capital raising opportunities in order to fund future acquisitions and meet its obligations as they become due. We may not be successful in obtaining additional financing needed. In the event financing cannot be obtained, the Company may not be able to satisfy these plans and obligations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.


Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Our Business – Our business, results of operations and financial condition have been adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, beginning in mid-March 2020. The COVID-19 pandemic and measures taken to contain it have subjected our business, results of operations, financial condition, stock price and liquidity to a number of material risks and uncertainties, all of which may continue or may worsen.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary source of cash from continuing operations includes post-harvest and midstream services and rental revenue. Our primary uses of cash include our operating costs, general and administrative expenses and merger and acquisition expenses.


Cash flow information from continuing operations for the first nine months of 20212022 was as follows:

Cash used in operating activities was $2.7$1.0 million principally due to the net loss adjusted for non-cash items.

We had noused $3 thousand of cash flows fromfor discontinued operations in the first nine months of 2021.2022.

 

Funding Requirements

We expect to continue to incur significant expenses and operating losses for the foreseeable future. We anticipate that our expenses may increase substantially as we grow our hemp business.

We expect that we will require additional capital to fund operations, including hiring additional employees, completing acquisitions and funding capital expenditures during the next twelve-month period.

Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development and commercialization of our business, we are unable to estimate the amounts of increased capital outlays and operating expenses. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including:

our success in identifying and making acquisitions of profitable operations;

our ability to negotiate operating contracts with growers and others within the hemp industry on favorable terms, if at all;

deriving revenue from our assets and operations; and

the cost of such operations and costs of being a public company.

Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial revenues, we expect to finance our cash needs through a combination of equity offerings and debt financings. We do not have any committed external source of funds. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the ownership interest of our shareholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of common shareholders. Debt financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate our growth plans and future commercialization efforts.


Indebtedness

The Company’s indebtedness at September 30, 20212022 is presented in Item I, “Financial Statements – Note 5 – Notes Payable – Related Parties” and in Item I, “Financial Statements—Note 6—6 – Other Indebtedness.”
