Nature of Business:

Cannabis Sativa, Inc. (the “Company,” “us”, “we” or “our”) was incorporated as Ultra Sun Corp. under the laws of Nevada in November 2004.  On November 13, 2013, we changed our name to Cannabis Sativa, Inc.    We operate through several subsidiaries including PrestoCorp, Inc. (“PrestoCorp”), iBudtender, Inc. (“iBudtender”), Wild Earth Naturals, Inc. (“Wild Earth”), Kubby Patent and Licenses Limited Liability Company, (“KPAL”), Hi Brands, International, Inc. (“Hi Brands”), GK Manufacturing and Packaging, Inc. (“GKMP”), and Eden Holdings LLC (“Eden”).  PrestoCorp and GK Manufacturing are both 51% owned subsidiaries and iBudtender is a 50.1% owned subsidiary. Wild Earth, KPAL, Hi Brands, and Eden are wholly owned subsidiaries. Currently, PrestoCorp, GKMP and iBudtender are operating subsidiaries, although iBudtender is not currently generating any revenue. The Company is reviewing opportunities for business development relating to Wild Earth, KPAL, and Hi Brands. Eden is not operating and had no activity for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

Our primary operations in the three months ended March 31, 2020 were through PrestoCorp, which provides telemedicine online referral services for customers desiring medical marijuana cards in states where medical marijuana has been legalized. GKMP commenced operations during the quarter ended March 31, 2020. The Company is also actively seeking new business opportunities for acquisition and is continually reviewing opportunities for product and brand development through our Wild Earth, Hi Brands, and KPAL subsidiaries. iBudtender is also working to complete and commercialize an application (the iBudtender App) that will provide a convenient means for sharing information about cannabis products, patients and businesses.

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued:

Principles of Consolidation:

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cannabis Sativa, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiaries; Wild Earth Naturals, Inc., Hi-Brands International, Inc., Eden Holdings LLC, our 50.1% ownership of iBudtender Inc., our 51% ownership of PrestoCorp, and our 51% ownership of GK Manufacturing Inc., (collectively referred to as the “Company”).  All significant inter-company balances have been eliminated in consolidation. We hold controlling interests in iBudTender, PrestoCorp and GK Manufacturing and exercise control through management practices and oversight by the Company’s Board of Directors.  GK Manufacturing was established in February 2020.

Non-controlling Interests:

Non-controlling interests are portions of entities included in the condensed consolidated financial statements that are not attributable to the Company.  Non-controlling interest are identified separately from the Company’s stockholders’ equity and its net income (loss). Non-controlling interest equity balances include the non-controlling entity’s initial contribution at the date of the original acquisition, ongoing contributions, distributions, and percentage share of earnings since inception. The non-controlling interests are calculated based on percentages of ownership.

Going Concern:

The Company has an accumulated deficit of $75,471,554 at March 31, 2020, which, among other factors, raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to generate profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they are due.

Use of Estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates and assumptions by management affect the allowance for doubtful accounts, the carrying value of long-lived assets (including goodwill and intangible assets), the provision for income taxes and related deferred tax accounts, certain accrued liabilities, revenue recognition, contingencies, and the value attributed to stock-based awards.

Accounts Receivable:

We estimate credit loss reserves for accounts receivable on an individual receivable basis. A specific allowance reserve is established based on expected future cash flows and the financial condition of the debtor.  We charge off customer balances in part or in full when it is more likely

than not that we will not collect that amount of the balance due.  We consider any balance unpaid after the contract payment period to be past due.

Inventories:

Inventory costs, when applicable, include those costs directly attributable to the manufacture of the product before sale. Inventory consists of raw materials and finished goods and is carried at the lower of cost or net realizable value, using the first-in, first-out method of determining cost.  As of March 31, 2020, the Company had $64,892 in inventory relating to GKMP. Inventory consists of the raw materials and packaging used to manufacture CBD infused products for our customers. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had no inventory.

Revenue Recognition:

Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of products and services in accordance with ASC 606,” Revenue Recognition”. The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements:

Provision for sales incentives, discounts and returns and allowances, if applicable, are accounted for as reductions of revenue in the period the related sales are recorded. The Company had no warranty costs associated with the sales of its products in the periods presented in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and no provision for warranty expenses has been included.

The Company generates revenue based on a per telehealth visit basis for clients looking to obtain a permit to use marijuana for medical purposes in states that have legalized medical marijuana. Revenues are recognized when the Company satisfies its performance obligation to stand ready to provide telehealth services. This occurs at the same time an online client subscribes for the visit and gains access to our network of health care professionals. The billing and payment processes are automated through our online platform. Revenue is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration that is received in exchange for the service.

With the recent addition of GKMP, the Company will also be reporting revenue from manufacturing operations in future periods.  The Company will recognize revenue from manufacturing operations when manufacturing and packaging processes are complete, and the products are shipped to the customer.

In the quarter ended March 31, 2020, the Company operated as one reportable segment.

Investments

Investments in equity securities that are less than 20% owned are stated at fair value. The Company recognizes unrealized holding gains and losses in other (Income) Expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. On disposal of an investment, the difference between the disposal proceeds and the carrying amount is recognized as income or loss on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Intangible Assets and Goodwill:

We account for intangible assets and goodwill in accordance with ASC 350 “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other” (“ASC 350”).

Intangible asset amounts represent the acquisition date fair values of identifiable intangible assets acquired. The fair values of the intangible assets were determined by using the income approach, discounting projected future cash flows based on management’s expectations of the current and future operating environment. The rates used to discount projected future cash flows reflected a weighted average cost of capital based on our industry, capital structure and risk premiums including those reflected in the current market capitalization. Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their useful lives, which have historically ranged from 5 to 10 years. The carrying amounts of our definite-lived intangible assets are evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the entity may be unable to recover the asset’s carrying amount. We do not have any indefinite-lived intangible assets recorded from acquisitions.

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset may be impaired. The fair value of the reporting unit is evaluated on qualitative factors to determine if the reported value may be impaired.  If the qualitative factors indicate a likelihood of impairment, we then evaluate carrying value of the reporting unit based on quantitative factors using the income approach. An impairment charge is recognized for the excess of the carrying value of goodwill for the reporting unit over its implied fair value.

​​

Advertising Expense:

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Advertising costs were $87,088 and $33,153 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation:

Stock-based payments to employees and non-employees are recognized at their fair values.  Compensation expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period).  The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model when necessary as the most appropriate fair value method for option awards. Most awards have been in the form of shares of the Company’s common and preferred stock issued under the Company’s 2017 Stock Plan. See Note 6. The Company currently recognizes compensation costs immediately as our awards are 100% vested at the time of issuance.

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued:

Income Taxes:

The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes which requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be recorded to reflect the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the book and tax basis of various assets and liabilities.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Additionally, deferred tax assets are evaluated, and a valuation allowance is established if it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. There can be no assurance that the Company’s future operations will produce sufficient earnings so that the deferred tax asset can be fully utilized. The Company currently maintains a full valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets.

Leases:

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease, or contains a lease, at the inception of an arrangement. If the Company determines that the arrangement is a lease, or contains a lease, at lease inception, it then determines whether the lease is an operating lease or finance lease. Operating and finance leases result in recording a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability on the consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. For purposes of calculating operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities, the Company uses the non-cancellable lease term plus options to extend that it is reasonably certain to exercise. Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company’s leases generally do not provide an implicit rate. As such, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company has elected not to recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities that arise from short-term (12 months or less) leases for any class of underlying asset. The Company has elected not to separate lease and non-lease components for any class of underlying asset.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

Accounting Standards Updates Adopted

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The update simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount. This update is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within that reporting period. The adoption

of the new guidance on January 1, 2020 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The update removes, modifies, and makes additions to the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. The update was adopted as of January 1, 2020, and its adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Accounting Standards Updates to Become Effective in Future Periods

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The update contains a number of provisions intended to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. Management is evaluating the impact of this update on the Company’s financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption.

Fair Value Measurements

When required to measure assets or liabilities at fair value, the Company uses a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used. The Company determines the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements in their entirety fall. The categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Level 1 uses quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, Level 2 uses significant other observable inputs, and Level 3 uses significant unobservable inputs. The amount of the total gains or losses for the period are included in earnings that are attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses relating to those assets and liabilities still held at the reporting date. We measure our investment in equity securities at fair value on a recurring basis.  The Company’s equity securities are valued using inputs observable in active markets and are therefore classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy.
