PART I

 

Item 1. Business

 

We are a technology company focused on developing and commercializing products utilizing our proprietary technology platform. We service the medical and recreational cannabis, hemp and CBD segments of the larger e-cigarette and vaporizer markets with our oil vaporizer focused products. At present, we have three principal product lines consisting of the 710 Shark cartridge filling machine, the 710 Captain cartridge capping machine, and our proprietary cartridges. Our customers are primarily businesses operating in jurisdictions that have some form of cannabis legalization. These businesses include medical and recreational dispensaries, large and small-scale processors and growers, and distributors. We expect continued growth as we take measures to invest in our own molds and intellectual property. We utilize a direct sales force, independent sales representatives, a referral network of manufacturers of related equipment, and our website, convectium.com, to sell our principal products.

 

Our flagship product is the 710 Shark vaporizer cartridge filling machine. It is designed to inject oil into various cartridges (glass, plastic and PODS) while also having the capability to fill bottles and other form factors. The 710 Shark is based on a pneumatic system and has a heating mechanism that allows the oil to be injected and processed. It can fill 100 traditional cartridges in less than 30 seconds, saving our customers the valuable time and labor expense of hand filling cartridges - which is currently the industry norm. We estimate that, in most applications, the 710 Shark will have a 60x faster rate than hand filling. The 710 Shark is currently produced in China and the machine is now on its eighth version.

 

In the second quarter of 2018 we introduced our 710 Captain capping machine. It is designed to affix caps to the cartridges filled by our 710 Shark filling machine and matches the production capacity of the 710 Shark at 100 cartridges in 30 seconds. It is pneumatically operated. The 710 Captain is currently produced in Irvine, California, by a contract manufacturer.

 

A much smaller portion of our business consists of our sales of non-proprietary vaporizer cartridges with core materials ranging from plastic to glass and heating technology from cotton wicks to ceramic and wickless materials. We also offer a selection of batteries to match the cartridges. Batteries range from button-less standard heating to push-button adjustable heating settings. Most of the vaporizer cartridge and battery units can be customized to our customers’ specifications, including adjusting colors, materials, and adding logos and images per the customer’s request. We deliver the vaporizer products unassembled and deliver the hardware directly to customers where the product is then filled and assembled at customer’s place of business by their personnel. We maintain relationships with packaging manufacturers who offer sophisticated labeling and customization capabilities, allow us to add value to our customers’ packaging design processes.

 

We have two distinct distribution platforms for our products, traditional direct sales and online sales. The majority of our sales are direct B2B sales of our principal products, namely the 710 Shark, the 710 Captain and our proprietary cartridges in North America. We generate these sales through our employed sales force, outside independent sales representatives, and our referral network of related equipment manufacturers and resellers. Our primary customers for our principal products are medical and recreational dispensaries, large and small-scale processors and growers, and distributors. We utilize our convectium.com website to support these sales channels and products.

 

Separately, and at a much smaller scale, we sell non-proprietary cartridge and battery units both B2B and B2C using our BlackoutX.com website with limited support from our inside sales staff. While we have sold these collateral products into 52 different countries, most sales are into North America. We do not intend to devote substantial resources to expand this business over the next twelve months.

 

Our employed sales force consists of seven direct sales representatives and three inside sales representatives. The inside sales representatives are prospecting for leads and pass along larger leads to the outside representatives. We anticipate continued expansion of our sales team throughout North America as the demand for our products continues to expand.

 

Our marketing efforts include attending industry trade shows. In 2018, we participated in fourteen such trade shows which we believe helped generate a significant amount of business and marketing opportunities. We typically have a 10’ x 20’ booth with demo machines and various pens and cartridges that we sell.

 

We also advertise in industry magazines and at other regional events where both B2B and B2C opportunities exist. We plan to expand our marketing efforts to new jurisdictions as they pass medical and recreational cannabis use laws. We also believe we have a large opportunity in the Canadian marketplace which plans to be recreationally legal for oils sometime in 2019.

 

We also have entered into referral and reseller agreements to expand our market footprint across North America. Our partners include extraction companies, wholesalers, distributors and individuals with significant industry contacts. We intend to expand the number of referral and reseller partners. These agreements typically provide a commission or referral fee to the source upon a completed sale.

Corporate History and Background

 

We were initially incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on September 21, 1989, under the name Fulton Ventures, Inc. On September 19, 2002, we changed our name to Asia Premium Television Group, Inc. to more accurately reflect our business at the time. Effective November 16, 2009, we changed our name to China Grand Resorts, Inc. to more accurately reflect its new business efforts. Commencing in 2002, we acquired and sold a series of subsidiary entities that were incorporated in various foreign jurisdictions, including the People’s Republic of China, or PRC, Macau, Hong Kong and the British Virgin Islands. Through 2009, these subsidiaries engaged in a variety of businesses, including, principally, marketing, brand management, advertising, media planning, public relations and direct marketing services to clients in the PRC.

 

The Company discontinued filing periodic reports under the Exchange Act, after it filed a quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2014 (the “June 2014 10-Q”) on August 14, 2014. As reported in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 20, 2013 (the last periodic report filed under the Exchange Act with which the Company furnished audited financial statements) and the June 2014 10-Q, the Company was engaged, through its subsidiaries, in the provision of mobile phone based services in the PRC through Sun New Media Transaction Services Ltd., a Hong Kong corporation, and real estate investment in the PRC through Key Proper Holdings Limited, a British Virgin Islands corporation.

 

Since the filing of the June 2014 10-Q, current management is not aware of any contact between the Company and incumbent management as of the filing of the June 2014 10-Q, which we refer to as “former management,” nor does current management have any knowledge or information relating to the business operations conducted by the Company or its subsidiaries as of that date, other than as reported in the periodic reports it filed with the SEC. Current management does not have in its possession any records of the Company prior to Mr. Glass taking operational control of the Company in April 2016, other than documents filed with or furnished to the SEC.

 

On April 4, 2016, Bryan Glass was appointed to serve as the custodian of the Company pursuant to an order of the District Court of Clark County Nevada, during the course of which Mr. Glass was issued 30 million shares of our common stock and served as our sole officer and director.

 

On September 14, 2018, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization that resulted in the acquisition of the business of Jacksam, which we now operate as our wholly-owned subsidiary. Jacksam commenced operations as a Delaware corporation in August 2013 under the name Jacksam Corporation. Prior to the Merger, we were a dormant company without any active operations and we were a “shell company” as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 12b-2. Subsequently, as reported on our Form 10-Q filed November 5, 2018, we merged our wholly owned operating subsidiary into the parent in a transaction filed October 24, 2018 and effective November 5, 2018, and in connection with that transaction amended our articles of incorporation to change our name from China Grand Resorts, Inc. to Jacksam Corporation (the “Short Form Merger”).

 

Since the Merger, we have continued to operate the business of Jacksam Corporation, described herein, as our sole business.

 

Immediately prior to the Merger, we had 33,272,311 shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding and no shares of preferred stock or any securities convertible into any class of our capital stock issued and outstanding. Per the Merger, each of the 149,870 shares of the pre-Merger Jacksam’s Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger was converted into shares of our Common Stock at a ratio of 1:300.26023 for a total of 45,000,000 shares of our Common Stock. Additionally, (i) the rights to purchase common stock of Jacksam as contained in those certain Convertible Debentures of Jacksam (the “2017 Debentures”) originally issued between November 2017 and January 2018 in total principal amount of $1,718,500 and issued and outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger were converted into a corresponding right to purchase shares of our Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.20 per share, or 8,592,500 shares in total; (ii) the rights to purchase common stock of Jacksam as contained in those certain Convertible Notes of Jacksam (the “2018 Notes”) originally issued in 2018 in total principal amount of $1,500,000 and issued and outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger were converted into a corresponding right to purchase shares of our Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.73 per share, or 2,062,160 shares in total; and (iii) the warrant held by Altar Rock Capital (the “Altar Rock Warrant”) to purchase 16,652 shares of common stock of Jacksam was converted into the right to purchase 5,000,000 shares of our Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share for a total exercise price of $5,000.00. As a result, an aggregate of 60,654,660 shares of our Common Stock, including rights pursuant to the 2017 Debentures, the 2018 Notes, and the Altar Rock Warrant to acquire our Common Stock, were issued to the pre-Merger holders of Jacksam’s capital stock and convertible securities; provided, however, that the number of shares of our Common Stock issuable to any holder of a 2017 Debenture and to the holder of the Altar Rock Warrant may not, in any instance, exceed 4.99% of our then issued and outstanding Common Stock. Finally, 30 million shares of our Common Stock, purchased by Jacksam from Bryan Glass on September 14, 2018 for total consideration of $340,000, our former controlling shareholder, officer and director, were returned to treasury by Jacksam and cancelled.

Following the Merger and the related share issuances and cancellations, we had a total of 48,272,311 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding, plus rights to acquire an additional 15,654,660 shares of our common stock outstanding, for a total potential share count of 63,926,971 shares of our common stock in the event that all of the 2017 Debentures, the 2018 Notes and the Altar Rock Warrants were to be converted into our common stock.

 

The 2017 Debentures and the associated Registration Rights Agreement required us to file a registration statement covering the resale of the 8,592,500 shares of our common stock issuable upon conversion of the 2017 Debentures. The terms of the Altar Rock warrant similarly require us to file a registration statement covering the 5,000,000 shares of our common stock issuable upon exercise of the Altar Rock Warrant.

 

In prior documents, such as the 8-K and S-1/A, the shares related to the 2018 convertible notes were calculated incorrectly. The correct number of shares related to the 2018 notes are 2,062,160 as stated above.

Our Business Strategy

 

Our overall goal is to become a leading technology company in that segment of the vaporizer filling, capping and systems business that focuses on serving the cannabis, hemp and CBD industries. We are focused on developing and commercializing products utilizing our proprietary filling, capping and vaporizer systems.

 

Our immediate term goals are:

 

 

·

Increase awareness, efficiency and demand for the 710 Shark and the 710 Captain machines . We intend to continue to develop increasing efficient and fast iterations of our Shark filling machine and our Captain capping machine.

 

·

Create new products . We plan to create more proprietary vaporization cartridges that we can sell to our customers as a closed proprietary system.

 

·

Increase our domestic and international presence. As more states and countries approve legalized cannabis use, we plan on hiring additional sales personnel where appropriate to take advantage of new markets. We also plan to continue to grow our distributor and affiliate networks to meet expected additional demand for our products.

 

Existing or Probable Governmental Regulation

 

Because cannabis remains illegal under US federal law and our products are primarily purchased by providers of cannabis to consumers in those states that have legalized medical or recreational cannabis, a change in US federal enforcement priorities could adversely affect our customers and our business.

 

Our products and business are not otherwise subject to material governmental regulation other than those laws and regulations of general application.

 

Market and Competition

 

The automated cartridge filling and packaging industry in the cannabis, hemp and CBD marketplace is relatively nascent. We believe that we are the largest manufacturer of cannabis focused filling machines, with an approximately 50% market share by units sold. Most cartridge filling operations are still done by hand at present, with a throughput rate of approximately 75 per hour. Hand-filling remains our largest competitor.

 

The competition in the cannabis specific filling machine market consists of a few players that are focused on regional markets and small growers. Our most direct competitors include Thompson-Duke, Transpring, and Cooljarz. Thompson-Duke is based in Oregon. Its system will fill approximately 16-20 cartridges per minute. Transpring is based in China. Its system will fill approximately 30 cartridges per minute. Cooljarz is based in California. Its system will fill approximately 12 cartridges per minute.

 

Additionally, there are a few manufacturers that manufacture and distribute directly from China, none of which appear to have gained significant market share.

 

Our most substantial competitive threat would be from the large tobacco e-cigarette manufacturers and the large medical equipment manufacturers, should either decide to enter the automated cartridge filling and packaging industry for cannabis, hemp and CBD. Many of these companies possess substantially greater manufacturing, sales, marketing, research and development, and financial resources. To date, however, none have entered the market. Nor are we aware of any with immediate plans to do so. We believe that failure is due to the fact that federal and state laws are in the process of changing significantly. Were any large tobacco e-cigarette manufacturer or medical equipment manufacturer to enter the market, our business and prospects would be adversely affected.

Intellectual Property Rights

 

We currently have one Certificate of Design Patent from the Peoples Republic of China for the 710 Shark filling machine, number ZL201630571863.4 issued May 31, 2017, which is valid for ten years. We have not filed for any other patents but continue to examine whether, and where, it may be advantageous for us to do so. We intend to seek US patents for certain aspects of our 710 Shark and our 710 Captain machines as well as certain of our proprietary cartridges.

 

In addition, we also rely upon trade secrets, know-how, trademarks, copyright protection, and continuing technological opportunities to develop and maintain our competitive position. We have periodically monitored and continue to monitor the activities of our competitors and other third parties with respect to their use of intellectual property. We require our employees, consultants, and third-party collaborators to execute confidentiality and invention assignment agreements upon commencing employment or consulting relationships with us.

 

Research and Development

 

Our research and development group consists of our founder and director, Daniel Davis, and three employed engineers. These individuals also work with our manufacturers to design new products. We are currently in the process of developing an updated 710 Shark filling machine, an updated 710 Captain capping machine and new proprietary vaporizers and cartridges.

 

Employees

 

Presently, we have 18 full-time employees. Eleven employees are engaged in marketing, sales and business development, three employees, plus our founder, are engaged in research and development and engineering, two are engaged in project management and manufacturing, one is engaged in shipping and logistics management, and three employees are engaged in general management and administration. We have no collective bargaining agreements with our employees, and we have not experienced any work stoppages. We consider our relations with our employees to be good.

 

Item 1A Risk Factors

 

As a smaller reporting company we are not required to include Risk Factors in our 10K filing.

 

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments

 

None

 

Item 2. Properties

 

At present, we do not hold title to any real estate property. Our property is leased. We do not have any mortgages, liens or encumbrances against any such properties.

 

Rancho Santa Margarita Lease

 

On April 30, 2017 we entered into a lease with Pacific Margarita LLC for premises consisting of approximately 3,145 square feet located at 30191 Avenida de las Banderas, Ste. B in Rancho Santa Margarita, California. The lease commenced on April 1st, 2017 and is for a term of 37 calendar months. We received the first month at no cost and the lease expense was $3,082 for months 2-12 and increases according to the following schedule: $3,617 for months 13-25, then $3,761 for months 26-37. We have an option to extend for an additional two (2) years under the same terms and conditions as the original lease, but subject to an adjustment of the rental rate to the then fair market value.

 

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

 

We are currently not aware of any pending legal proceedings to which we are a party or of which any of our property is the subject, nor are we aware of any such proceedings that are contemplated by any governmental authority. From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business.

DIVIDEND POLICY

 

We have not previously declared nor paid any cash dividend on any shares of our Common Stock, nor have we determined to pay dividends on such shares in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of our business plan and objectives. The permissibility to pay dividends on our shares if restricted by Section 78.288 of the Nevada Revised Statutes, which provides that a company may not issue a dividend if the result of such dividend would be to make the company have negative retained earnings. There can be no assurance that our operations will result in sufficient revenues to enable us to operate at profitable levels or to generate positive cash flows. Furthermore, there is no assurance that the Board of Directors will declare dividends even if profitable. Dividend policy is subject to the Nevada Revised Statutes and the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on, among other things, our earnings, financial condition, capital requirements and other factors that our Board of Directors considers significant.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS

 

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect Management’s current views with respect to future events and financial performance. You can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate” and “continue,” or similar words. Those statements include statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of us and members of our management team as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based. Prospective investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risk and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements.

Readers are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Important factors currently known to management could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes in the future operating results over time. We believe that our assumptions are based upon reasonable data derived from and known about our business and operations. No assurances are made that actual results of operations or the results of our future activities will not differ materially from our assumptions. Factors that could cause differences include, but are not limited to, expected market demand for our products, fluctuations in pricing for our products, and competition.

 

The following discussion provides information that management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our past financial condition and plan of operations. The discussion below should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this prospectus.

 

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on September 21, 1989 under the name Fulton Ventures, Inc. Since inception, the Company has engaged in a variety of businesses but has been inactive since approximately late 2014 through the Merger that closed September 14, 2018. Since the Merger, our sole business has been the design, manufacture and sale of oil vaporizer cartridges and filling machines, primarily for use in the medical cannabis, hemp, and CBD industries.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements is in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions impact both assets and liabilities, including but not limited to: net realizable value of accounts receivable and inventory, estimated useful lives and potential impairment of property and equipment, estimate of fair value of share based payments and derivative liabilities, estimates of fair value of warrants issued and recorded as debt discount and estimates of the probability and potential magnitude of contingent liabilities. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate could change in the near term due to one or more future nonconforming events. Accordingly, actual results could differ significantly from estimates.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company’s operations are subject to risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, regulatory and other risks including the potential risk of business failure. The Company has experienced, and in the future, expects to continue to experience, variability in its sales and earnings. The factors expected to contribute to this variability include, among others, (i) the uncertainty associated with the commercialization and ultimate success of the product, (ii) competition inherent at large national retail chains where product is expected to be sold, (iii) general economic conditions and (iv) the related volatility of prices pertaining to the cost of sales.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of China Grand Resorts, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary. All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.

 

Going Concern

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company has negative working capital, recurring losses, and does not have a source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs. These factors raise 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 upon its ability to successfully execute the business plan and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

In the coming year, the Company’s foreseeable cash requirements will relate to continual development of the operations of its business, maintaining its good standing and making the requisite filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the payment of expenses associated with operations and business developments. The Company may experience a cash shortfall and be required to raise additional capital.

 

Historically, it has mostly relied upon convertible notes payable and cash flows from operations to finance its operations and growth. Management may raise additional capital by retaining net earnings or through future private offerings of the Company’s stock or through loans from private investors, although there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such financing. The Company’s failure to do so could have a material and adverse effect upon it and its shareholders.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and consist of cash on hand and demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions, and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. The Company recognizes an allowance for losses on accounts receivable in an amount equal to the estimated probable losses net of recoveries. The allowance is based on an analysis of historical bad debt experience, current receivables aging, and expected future bad debts, as well as an assessment of specific identifiable customer accounts considered at risk or uncollectible. All amounts are deemed collectible at December 31, 2018.

 

Inventory

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method or net realizable value. Cost principally consists of the purchase price (adjusted for lower of cost or market), customs, duties, and freight. The Company periodically reviews historical sales activity to determine potentially obsolete items and evaluates the impact of any anticipated changes in future demand.

 

At December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had $764,095 and $124,121 in inventory, respectively. The December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 inventory consisted entirely of finished goods. The Company will maintain an allowance based on specific inventory items that have shown no activity over a 24-month period. The Company tracks inventory as it is disposed, scrapped or sold at below cost to determine whether additional items on hand should be reduced in value through an allowance method. As of December 31, 2018, and December 31, 2017, the Company has determined that an allowance of $0 and $0 is required.

 

Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is measured at cost, less accumulated depreciation, and is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, ranging from 5 to 7 years of the respective assets. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Upon sale or retirement of property and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the statements of operations.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company measures assets and liabilities at fair value based on an expected exit price as defined by the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements, which represents the amount that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, as the case may be, in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value may be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby inputs, used in valuation techniques, are assigned a hierarchical level.

 

The following are the hierarchical levels of inputs to measure fair value:

 

Level 1  - Observable inputs that reflect quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 - Inputs reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active;

 

Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities; or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

 

Level 3  - Unobservable inputs reflecting the Company’s assumptions incorporated in valuation techniques used to determine fair value. These assumptions are required to be consistent with market participant assumptions that are reasonably available.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses, other current assets, accounts payable & accrued expenses, certain notes payable and an approximate of their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

 

Binomial Calculation model: The Company uses a binomial calculator model to determine fair market value of warrants and options issued.

 

Net Loss Per Common Share

 

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common stock equivalents are determined using the treasury stock method. For diluted net loss per share purposes, the Company excludes stock options and other stock-based awards, including shares issued as a result of option exercises but which are subject to repurchase by the Company, whose effect would be anti-dilutive from the calculation. During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, common stock equivalents were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per common share, as their effect was anti-dilutive due to the net loss incurred. Therefore, basic and diluted net loss per share was the same in all periods presented.

 

The Company had 5,000,000 and 3,171,048 potentially dilutive securities that have been excluded from the computation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, as they would be anti-dilutive.

 

Issuance Costs Related to Equity and Debt

 

The Company allocates issuance costs between the individual freestanding instruments identified on the same basis as proceeds were allocated. Issuance costs associated with the issuance of stock or equity contracts (i.e., equity-classified warrants and convertible preferred stock) are recorded as a charge against the gross proceeds of the offering. Any issuance costs associated with the issuance of liability-classified warrants are expensed as incurred. Issuance costs associated with the issuance of debt (i.e., convertible debt) is recorded as a direct reduction of the carrying amount of the debt liability but limited to the notional value of the debt. The Company accounts for debt as liabilities measured at amortized cost and amortizes the resulting debt discount to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected term of the notes pursuant to ASC 835, Interest (“ASC 835”). To the extent that the reduction from issuance costs of the carrying amount of the debt liability would reduce the carrying amount below zero, such excess is recorded as interest expense.

 

Embedded Conversion Features

 

The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” to determine whether the embedded conversion feature(s) should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument is evaluated under ASC 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options.” Under the ASC 470-20, an entity must separately account for the liability and equity components of the convertible debt instruments that may be settled entirely or partially in cash upon conversion in a manner that reflects the issuer’s economic interest cost. The effect of ASC 470-20 on the accounting for our convertible debt instruments is that the equity component is required to be included in the additional paid-in capital section of stockholders’ equity on the consolidated balance sheets and the value of the equity component is treated as original issue discount for purposes of accounting for the debt component of the notes. As a result, we are required to record non-cash interest expense as a result of the amortization of the discounted carrying value of the convertible debt to their face amount over the term of the convertible debt. We report higher interest expense in our financial results because ASC 470-20 requires interest to include both the current period’s amortization of the debt discount and the instrument’s coupon interest.

 

For conventional convertible debt where the rate of conversion is below market value, the Company records a “beneficial conversion feature” (“BCF”) and related debt discount. When the Company records a BCF, the relative fair value of the BCF is recorded as a debt discount against the face amount of the respective debt instrument (offset to additional paid in capital) and amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt.

Derivatives and Hedging

 

On July 1, 2017, the Company early adopted ASU 2017-11, “ Earnings Per Share (Topic 260) Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), ” which addresses the complexity of accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features. The Company has concluded that the retroactive provisions of ASU 2017-11 had no impact on the accounting for the Company’s previously outstanding warrant which had been issued to the warrant holder as stock compensation.

 

ASU 2017-11 changes the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. ASU 2017-11 also clarifies existing disclosure requirements for equity- classified instruments. As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option) no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value as a result of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments, the amendments require entities that present earnings per share (EPS) in accordance with Topic 260 to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS. Convertible instruments with embedded conversion options that have down round features are now subject to the specialized guidance for contingent beneficial conversion features (in Subtopic 470-20, “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options”), including related EPS guidance (ASC 260). Part II of ASU 2017-11 recharacterize the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of ASC 480 that now are presented as pending content in the ASC, to a scope exception. Those amendments do not have an accounting effect.

 

Prior to the early adoption of ASU 2017-11, an equity-linked financial instrument with a down round feature that otherwise is not required to be classified as a liability under the guidance in ASC 480 is evaluated under the guidance in ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” to determine whether it meets the definition of a derivative. If it meets that definition, the instrument (or embedded feature) is evaluated to determine whether it is indexed to an entity’s own stock as part of the analysis of whether it qualifies for a scope exception from derivative accounting. Generally, for warrants and conversion options embedded in financial instruments that are deemed to have a debt host (assuming the underlying shares are readily convertible to cash or the contract provides for net settlement such that the embedded conversion option meets the definition of a derivative), the existence of a down round feature results in an instrument not being considered indexed to an entity’s own stock. This results in a reporting entity being required to classify the freestanding financial instrument or the bifurcated conversion option as a liability, which the entity must measure at fair value initially and at each subsequent reporting date.

 

ASU 2017-11 revises the guidance for instruments with down round features in ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity,” which is considered in determining whether an equity-linked financial instrument qualifies for a scope exception from derivative accounting. An entity still is required to determine whether instruments would be classified in equity under the guidance in ASC 815-40 in determining whether they qualify for that scope exception. If they do qualify, freestanding instruments with down round features are no longer classified as liabilities and embedded conversion options with down round features are no longer bifurcated.

 

For entities that present EPS in accordance with ASC 260, and when the down round feature is included in an equity-classified freestanding financial instrument, the value of the effect of the down round feature is treated as a dividend when it is triggered and as a numerator adjustment in the basic EPS calculation. This reflects the occurrence of an economic transfer of value to the holder of the instrument, while alleviating the complexity and income statement volatility associated with fair value measurement on an ongoing basis. Convertible instruments are unaffected by ASU 2017-11.

 

Part I of ASU 2017-11 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. ASU 2017-11 Part 1 should be applied retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature for each prior reporting period presented in accordance with the guidance on accounting changes in paragraphs ASC 250-10-45-5 through 45-10.

 

The Company has determined that there were no previously outstanding financial instruments that fall under the scope of ASU 2017-11. Therefore, the Company has not determined and has not recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet.

 

ASU 2017-11 Part II does not require any transition guidance because those amendments do not have an accounting effect.

 

The Company considered the impact of Part 1 of ASU 2017-11 and determined the Company had no financial instruments previously carried as derivative liabilities that were deemed to be such on the basis of embedded features containing down round provisions, resulting in the strike price being reduced on the basis of the pricing of future equity offerings. As a result, upon the early adoption provisions of ASU 2017-11, the Company did not record any adjustment to its books to account for any transition accounting issues.

Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), which requires that stock-based compensation be measured and recognized as an expense in the financial statements and that such expense be measured at the grant date fair value.

 

For awards that vest based on service conditions, the Company uses the straight-line method to allocate compensation expense to reporting periods. The grant date fair value of options granted is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires the use of subjective assumptions including volatility, expected term and the fair value of the underlying common stock, among others.

 

The Company periodically issues performance-based awards. For these awards, vesting will occur upon the achievement of certain milestones. When achievement of the milestone is deemed probable, the Company expenses the compensation of the respective awards over the implicit service period.

 

Stock awards to non-employees are accounted for in accordance with ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees (“ASC 505-50”). The measurement date for non-employee awards is generally the date performance of services required from the non-employee is complete. For non-employee awards that vest based on service conditions, the Company expenses the value of the awards over the related service period, provided they expect the service condition to be met. The Company records the expense of services rendered by non- employees based on the estimated fair value of the stock option using the Black-Scholes option pricing model over the contractual term of the non-employee. The fair value of unvested non-employee awards is remeasured at each reporting period and expensed over the vesting term of the underlying stock options on a straight-line basis. The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-09 Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting during the year ended December 31, 2017.

 

The stock-based compensation plans provide that grantees may have the right to exercise an option prior to vesting. Shares purchased upon the exercise of unvested options will be subject to the same vesting schedule as the underlying options and are subject to repurchase at the original exercise price by the Company should the grantee discontinue providing services to the Company for any reason, prior to becoming fully vested in such shares.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company derives revenues from the sale of machines and product income. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring those goods or services.

 

Revenue is recognized based on the following five step model:

 

·

Identification of the contract with a customer

·

Identification of the performance obligations in the contract

·

Determination of the transaction price

·

Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

·

Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation

 

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new accounting standard ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and all the related amendments (“new revenue standard”) to all contracts using the modified retrospective method, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with historic accounting standards under Topic 605. The adoption has had an immaterial impact to the Company’s comparative net income and as such comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. We expect the impact of the adoption of the new standard to be immaterial to the Company’s net income on an ongoing basis.

Cost of Sales

 

Cost of sales represents costs directly related to supplies and materials, machines, freight & delivery, commissions, printing, packaging and other costs.

 

Advertising and Marketing Expenses

 

Advertising & Marketing expense include cost incurred in public relations, online marketing, magazine, social networking etc. 

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses include costs incurred in wages and salaries, interest expense, interest expense (loans), officer salaries etc. Operating lease expense as on December 31st, 2017 and 2016 was $45,863 and $27,685, respectively.

 

Income Tax Provision

 

Since inception of the Company on August 29, 2013 through March 5, 2017, the Company was taxed as a pass-through entity for federal and state income tax purposes as an S Corporation. For federal and state Income tax purposes, income and losses are passed through to the shareholders. As a pass-through entity, the Company was subject to California state income tax.

 

On March 6, 2017, the Company inadvertently terminated its S election by issuing common stock to an ineligible shareholder. On March 6, 2016 and thereafter, the Company is taxed as a C corporation. The Company is subject to income taxes in the United States.

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under Section 740-10-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. 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. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the Statements of Operations in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.

 

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within income tax expense. Accrued interest and penalties are included within the related tax liability.

 

Contingencies

 

The Company follows subtopic 450-20 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report accounting for contingencies. Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or un-asserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or un-asserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

 

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

 

Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed. However, there is no assurance that such matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial position, and results of operations or cash flows.

Subsequent Events

 

The Company evaluates events occurring after the date of its consolidated balance sheet for potential recognition or disclosure in its consolidated financial statements. There have been no subsequent events that occurred through the date the Company issued its consolidated financial statements that require disclosure in or adjustment to its consolidated financial statements.

 

Marketable Securities

 

We report investments in marketable equity securities, and certain other equity securities, at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale investment securities are included in shareowners’ equity, net of applicable taxes and other adjustments. We currently do not have any available for sale securities.

 

Realized gains and losses are accounted for on the specific identification method. Unrealized gains and losses on investment securities classified as trading are included in earnings.

 

We regularly review investment securities for impairment using both quantitative and qualitative criteria. If we do not expect to recover the entire cost basis of the security, we consider the security to be other-than-temporarily impaired (OTTI), and we record the difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and its recoverable amount in earnings and the difference between the security’s recoverable amount and fair value in other comprehensive income. If we intend to sell the security or it is more likely than not we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the security is also considered OTTI and we recognize the entire difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and its fair value in earnings. For equity securities, we consider the length of time and magnitude of the amount that each security is in an unrealized loss position. If we do not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security, we consider the security to be OTTI, and we record the difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and its fair value in earnings.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the effect of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09 (“ASU 2014-09”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers , which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition , and most industry-specific guidance. The new standard requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. In July 2015, the FASB approved a one-year deferral of the effective date of this standard to annual reporting periods, and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company adopted this standard effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (“ASU 2015- 11”). ASU 2015-11, which simplifies the measurement of inventories valued under most methods, including the Company’s inventories valued under FIFO — the first-in, first-out cost method. Inventories valued under LIFO — the last-in, first-out method — are excluded. Under this new guidance, inventories valued under these methods would be valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value, with net realizable value defined as the estimated selling price less reasonable costs to sell the inventory. This guidance is effective for annual reporting beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within the year of adoption, with early application permitted. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, “ Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities ,” which addresses the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial assets and liabilities. This ASU primarily affects the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, this ASU clarifies the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. This standard became effective on January 1, 2018. This standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) , or ASU 2016-02. ASU 2016-02 requires that lessees recognize in the statement of financial position for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis, and a right-of-use asset, which is an asset representing the lessee’s right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Lessees must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The modified retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented. Lessees may not apply a full retrospective transition approach. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2016-09”). ASU 2016-09 will simplify the income tax consequences, accounting for forfeitures and classification on the statements of consolidated cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company elected to adopt ASU 2016-09 in the first quarter of 2017 retrospectively to January 1, 2017. As a result of adopting ASU No. 2016-09 during the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company adjusted its accumulated deficit related to the accounting policy election to recognize the impact of share-based award forfeitures only as they occur rather than by applying an estimated forfeiture rate as previously required. ASU No. 2016-09 requires that this change be applied using a modified-retrospective transition method by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to accumulated deficit as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the guidance is adopted. As a result of this adoption, the Company recorded a decrease to accumulated deficit of approximately $28,000 with an offset to Additional Paid-in Capital as of January 1, 2017.

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force) , or ASU 2016-15. The amendments in ASU 2016-15 address eight specific cash flow issues and apply to all entities that are required to present a statement of cash flows under FASB Accounting Standards Codification 230, Statement of Cash Flows . The amendments in ASU 2016-15 are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption during an interim period. We have evaluated the impact of ASU No. 2016-15 and noted it had no impact on our consolidated financial statements for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018.

 

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issue Task Force) , or ASU 2016-18. This new standard addresses the diversity that exists in the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in ASU 2016-18 require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within the year of adoption, with early adoption permitted. Our consolidated financial statements reflect this standard for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

 

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, ”Earnings Per Share (ASC 260) Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (ASC 480) Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815),” which addresses the complexity of accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features. Down round features are features of certain equity-linked instruments (or embedded features) that result in the strike price being reduced on the basis of the pricing of future equity offerings. Current accounting guidance creates cost and complexity for entities that issue financial instruments (such as warrants and convertible instruments) with down round features that require fair value measurement of the entire instrument or conversion option. For public business entities, the amendments in Part I of ASU 2017-11 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company has chosen to early adopt this standard on April 1, 2018 with retroactive restatement of comparative periods. The Company has concluded that the retroactive provisions of ASU 2017-11 had no impact on the accounting for the Company’s previously outstanding warrant which had been issued to the warrant holder as stock compensation.

 

Financial Presentation

 

As the result of the Merger and the change in business and operations of the Company, a discussion of the past financial results of the Company is not pertinent, and under applicable accounting principles the historical financial results of Jacksam, the accounting acquirer, prior to the Merger are considered the historical financial results of the Company.

 

The following discussion highlights Jacksam’s results of operations and the principal factors that have affected our financial condition as well as our liquidity and capital resources for the periods described, and provides information that management believes is relevant for an assessment and understanding of the statements of financial condition and results of operations presented herein. The following discussion and analysis are based on Jacksam’s audited and unaudited financial statements contained in this Report, which we have prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. You should read the discussion and analysis together with such financial statements and the related notes thereto.

Basis of Presentation

 

The audited consolidated financial statements of Jacksam for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, contained herein include a summary of our significant accounting policies and should be read in conjunction with the discussion below. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments necessary to present fairly the results of operations for such unaudited interim periods have been included in these unaudited financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

 

Components of Statements of Operations

 

Revenue

 

Product revenue consists of sales of consumer vaporizers and of the 710 Shark filling machine, 710 Captain capping machine, Cove cartridges, accessories, warranty, service and freight charges, net of returns, discounts and allowances. Once a sales order is negotiated and received by a sales representative, we generally collect a 50% deposit from the customer. When the product is ready to be shipped, the customer will generally pay the remaining balance. We recognize the revenue when the product leaves the warehouse on the way to the customer.

 

For the 710 Shark filling machine and 710 Captain capping machine, training is coordinated with the customers in accordance with their availability but generally completed within a week or two of the shipment. Standard warranties are offered at no cost to customers to cover parts (3 years), labor and maintenance for one year for product defects.

 

Cost of Revenue

 

Product cost of revenue primarily consists of the cost of materials, labor and overhead associated with the manufacture of both our vaporizers and the 710 Shark filling machine and 710 Captain capping machine.

 

We expect our cost of revenue per unit to decrease as we continue to scale our operations, improve product designs and work with our third-party suppliers to lower costs.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Sales and Marketing . Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of compensation and related costs for personnel, employee benefits and travel associated with our direct sales force, project managers and sales management. Sales and marketing expenses also include costs associated with our support of business development efforts with distributors and partners and costs related to trade shows and our marketing program. We expense sales and marketing costs as incurred. We expect sales and marketing expenses to increase in future periods as we expand our sales force and our marketing organization and increase our participation in global trade shows and marketing programs, including consumer marketing.

 

General and Administrative . Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of compensation and related costs for personnel, employee benefits and travel. In addition, general and administrative expenses include, third- party consulting, legal, audit, accounting services, and allocations of overhead costs, such as rent, facilities and information technology. We expect general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars following the consummation of the Merger due to additional legal, accounting, insurance, investor relations and other costs associated with being a public company, as well as other costs associated with growing our business.

 

Interest Income

 

Interest income consists primarily of interest income received on our cash and cash equivalents.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense consists primarily of interest from notes due to debtholders.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – Twelve Month Periods

 

The following set forth our results of operations for the Fiscal Years ended December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017:

 

Revenue

 

Total revenue during the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 were $6,628,919 (comprised of $3,759,917 of machine sales and $2,869,002 of cartridges and other consumables. Compared to the year-ended December 31, 2017 which had $1,569,456 (comprised of $1,130,008 (72%) of machine sales and $439,448 (28%) of cartridges and other consumables). The sales of growth of $5,059.463 or 332% was primarily driven by increasing the sales staff year over year and the development of proprietary 710 Cove and Riptide cartridges.

 

While our sales have increased substantially, we have had ongoing challenges working with our Chinese contract manufacturers. We made the decision to end a relationship with a cartridge supplier because of poor quality and we are continuously evaluating the performance of other contract manufacturers.

 

We made the decision to produce our 710 Captain capping machine, in the U.S., which was released in June of 2018. We are developing a U.S. made oil filling machine, which we expect to be available for sale in the second quarter of 2019.

 

In 2018, returns and faulty products reduced revenues by approximately $148,000 (2%) for cartridges and other consumables and approximately $103,000 (2%) for machines. In 2017, returns and faulty products reduced revenues by approximately $82,000 (5%) for cartridges and approximately $137,000 (9%) for machines.

 

In addition, the quality issues, particularly with the cartridges, have caused some customers to not re-order. The amount of lost business from a lack of re-orders is not quantifiable, but we believe that it is significant.

 

Cost of Revenue

 

Total cost of revenue was $4,859,153 during the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 compared to $1,248,919 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2017. The cost of revenue increased by $3,610,234, which was related to the increased sales in 2018.

 

The cost of revenue in 2018 was increased for defective and returned cartridges by approximately $461,000 (9%) and machines by approximately 93,900 (2%). The cost of revenues in 2017 was increased for defective and returned cartridges by approximately $75,000 (7%) and machines by approximately 75,000 (7%). The increase in gross margin percentage from 20% to 27% was primarily attributable greater percentage of returns and defective products in 2017 than 2018.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Sales, Marketing and General and Administrative. Sales, Marketing and General and Administrative during the during the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 increased to $3,567,222 (comprised of $1,772,348 in salaries and $1,794,874 of other expenses) compared to December 31, 2017 which produced expenses $1,570,527 (comprised of $583,922 in salaries and $986,605 of other expenses) The $1,996,695 increase was primarily attributed to increased staff and marketing. There were no other expenses greater than 10% in either period.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense during the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 was $135,914 compared to $74,982 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2017. The increase of $60,932 was due to increased debt obligations.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Since Jacksam’s inception in 2013 as a Delaware corporation, we have incurred net losses and negative cash flows from operations. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2018, we had net losses of $1,324,972 and $1,939,873 respectively. At December 31, 2018, we had an accumulated deficit of $4,519,497.

 

At December 31, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,074,105. To date, we have financed our operations principally through borrowing on credit facilities, debt of $594,000, issuance of equity of $457,500, issuances of Convertible Debt of $3,813,500 and receipts of customer deposits for new orders and payments from customers for Shark 710 machines, 710 Captain capping machines and cartridges.

On November 8, 2018, we entered into a Line of Credit Agreement with Bass Point Capital, LLC, a Massachusetts limited liability company controlled by Doug Leighton, who is also a principal in Altar Rock Capital, one of our shareholders and the holder of the Altar Rock Warrant. The Line of Credit Agreement allows us, at the discretion of the lender, to borrow up to $250,000 by making specific requests therefor which draws, if any, will be due and payable on individually determined terms. Brass Point Capital, LLC is under no obligation to honor any request we may make for an advance under the Line of Credit Agreement.

 

The only capital commitment that Jacksam has currently is the lease at 30191 Avenida de las Banderas in Rancho Santa Margarita, California for $51,600 annually through April of 2020.

 

We do not anticipate the purchase or sale of any plant or significant equipment during the next 12 months.

 

We anticipate that we will need additional financing to continue as an ongoing entity over the next 12 months. Over the course of the next 12 months, we plan to raise capital to support our business plan through equity financing, debt financing, or other sources, which may result in further dilution in the equity ownership of our shares. There is no assurance that we will be able to maintain operations at a level sufficient for an investor to obtain a return on their investment in our common stock, or that we will be able to raise sufficient capital required to implement our business plan on acceptable terms, if at all. Even if we are successful in raising sufficient capital to implement our business plan, we may continue to be unprofitable.

 

We anticipate our cash requirements to be as follows:

Operating Activities

 

We have historically experienced negative cash outflows as we developed and sold our 710 Shark Filling machines, 710 Captain Capping machines, and cartridges, pens and accessories. Our net cash used in operating activities primarily results from our operating losses combined with changes in working capital components as we have grown our business and is influenced by the timing of cash payments for inventory purchases and cash receipts from our customers. Our primary source of cash flow from operating activities is cash down payments and final payments for our machines. Our primary uses of cash from operating activities are employee-related expenditures and amounts due to vendors for purchased components. Our cash flows from operating activities will continue to be affected principally by our working capital requirements and the extent to which we build up our inventory balances and increase spending on personnel and other operating activities as our business grows.

 

Several of our products are produced in China, specifically our 710 Shark filling machines, our proprietary cartridges, and the batteries and disposable pens that use those cartridges. We do not have firm purchase or minimum quantity commitments with any of our Chinese suppliers. Certain of our Chinese suppliers require a deposit in the range of 25% to 30% of the total cost of an order before beginning production. All of our Chinese suppliers require that the entirety of the purchase price of an order be sent prior to shipment to us. However, since we generally require that our customers make a deposit of not less than half of any order for product, including the products produced in China, as a condition of accepting an order from our customers, we typically have on hand sufficient funds to cover the entirety of the amounts owed to our Chinese suppliers in advance. The timing of cash payment obligations are thus coordinated so as to not create a cash flow or liquidity problem for us.

 

For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, cash provided by (used in) operating activities was $1,406,681 and $578,515, an increase of $828,166.

Investing Activities

 

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, cash provided by (used in) investing activities was $193,500 and $(6,423) respectively.

 

Financing Activities

 

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, cash provided by financing activities was $1,140,912. The Company also made $94,088 of payments to pay down notes payable and $340,000 related to reverse acquisition and repurchase common stock.

 

During the twelve months ended December 31, 2017, $1,731,312 of cash provided by financing activities was from the issuance of convertible debt and the issuance of equity from Company’s investors. The Company also made $102,184 of payments to pay down notes payable and $110,000 to repurchase common stock.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

During the year ended December 31, 2018, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined by applicable SEC regulations.

 

Going Concern

 

None of the reports from our auditor L&L CPAs, PA on our financial statements for either of the past two years or subsequent interim period contained an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, or was qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. We have included the going concern qualification in our Form S-1/A previously filed with the SEC.

 

Seasonality

 

In the past, our operating results and operating cash flows historically have not been subject to seasonal variations. At this time, we do not anticipate having any seasonal fluctuations in sales.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and

Jacksam Corporation (FKA China Grand Resorts, Inc.)

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Jacksam Corporation (FKA China Grand Resorts, Inc.) (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 the related statement of operations, stockholders’ deficit, cash flow and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”) for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of its operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the years 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.

Jacksam Corporation

(formerly: China Grand Resorts, Inc.)

Notes to the Financial Statements

 

Note 1: Organization and Nature of Operations

 

Jacksam Corporation (the “Company”) was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on September 21, 1989 under the name Fulton Ventures, Inc. Effective on November 16, 2009, the name was changed to China Grand Resorts Inc. Effective November 5, 2018, the name was changed to Jacksam Corporation. After the September 30, 2014 10-Q filing, the management of the Company abandoned the Company and the subsidiaries were taken back by the PRC national companies in China who owned them. The remaining parent company, China Grand Resorts, Inc. became a dormant company until 2016 when a new shareholder acquired stock to become the majority shareholder and owner of the Company.

 

On September 14, 2018, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Jacksam Acquisition Corp., a corporation formed in the State of Nevada on September 11, 2018, or the Acquisition Sub, merged with and into Jacksam Corporation, a corporation incorporated in August 2013 in the State of Delaware, referred to herein as Jacksam. Pursuant to this transaction, or the Merger, Acquisition Sub was the surviving corporation, and changed its name to “Jacksam Corporation”.

 

In accordance with the terms of the Exchange Agreement, and in connection with the completion of the acquisition, on the Closing Date the Company issued 45,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share to the Jacksam shareholders in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding Jacksam. In addition, the previous owners of China Grand Resorts, Inc. returned 30,000,000 shares of common stock to the treasury of the Company. Following the acquisition there was a total of 48,272,311 shares of common stock issued and outstanding of which 3,272,311 are held by shareholders of the Company prior to the merger. In connection with the above transaction $340,000 was paid to the former controlling shareholder related to the return of 30,000,000 shares of common stock.

 

As a result of the Merger, we acquired the business of Jacksam and will continue the existing business operations of Jacksam as our wholly-owned operating subsidiary under the name Jacksam Corporation.

 

In accordance with “reverse merger” or “reverse acquisition” accounting treatment, the China Grand Resorts, Inc. historical financial statements as of period ends, and for periods ended, prior to the Merger will be replaced with the historical financial statements of Jacksam, prior to the Merger, in all future filings with the SEC.

 

Jacksam Corporation (“Jacksam”) is a technology company focused on developing and commercializing products utilizing a proprietary technology platform. The Company services the medical cannabis, hemp and CBD segments of the larger e-cigarette and vaporizer markets with oil vaporizer focused products. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had two principal product lines consisting of vape cartridges and batteries and a filling machine. Customers are primarily businesses operating in jurisdictions that have some form of cannabis legalization. These businesses include medical and recreational dispensaries, large and small scale processors and growers, and distributors. The Company expects continued growth as they take measures to invest in their own molds and intellectual property. The Company operates and sells products from the website www.Convectium.com.

 

Note 2: Significant Accounting Policies

 

The significant accounting policies set out below have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements, unless otherwise indicated:

 

Basis of Preparation

 

The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) under the accrual basis of accounting.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Jacksam Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary. All intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.

 

 
F-6
 
Table of Contents

 

Basis of Measurement

 

These financial statements are presented in US dollars and are prepared on a historical cost basis, except for certain financial instruments which are carried at fair value.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements is in conformity with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions impact both assets and liabilities, including but not limited to: net realizable value of accounts receivable and inventory, estimated useful lives and potential impairment of property and equipment, estimate of fair value of share based payments and derivative liabilities, estimates of fair value of warrants issued and recorded as debt discount and estimates of the probability and potential magnitude of contingent liabilities. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate could change in the near term due to one or more future nonconforming events. Accordingly, actual results could differ significantly from estimates.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company’s operations are subject to risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, regulatory and other risks including the potential risk of business failure. The Company has experienced, and in the future, expects to continue to experience, variability in its sales and earnings. The factors expected to contribute to this variability include, among others, (i) the uncertainty associated with the commercialization and ultimate success of the product, (ii) competition inherent at large national retail chains where product is expected to be sold, (iii) general economic conditions and (iv) the related volatility of prices pertaining to the cost of sales.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost and consist of cash on hand and demand deposits placed with banks or other financial institutions, and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company extends unsecured credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business but mitigates the associated risks by performing credit checks and actively pursuing past due accounts. The Company recognizes an allowance for losses on accounts receivable in an amount equal to the estimated probable losses net of recoveries. The allowance is based on an analysis of historical bad debt experience, current receivables aging, and expected future bad debts, as well as an assessment of specific identifiable customer accounts considered at risk or uncollectible. All amounts are deemed collectible at December 31, 2018.

 

Inventory

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method or net realizable value. Cost principally consists of the purchase price (adjusted for lower of cost or market), customs, duties, and freight. The Company periodically reviews historical sales activity to determine potentially obsolete items and evaluates the impact of any anticipated changes in future demand.

 

At December 31, 20178 and December 31, 2017, the Company had $764,095 and $121,121 in inventory, respectively. The December 31, 2018 and 2017 inventory consisted entirely of finished goods. The Company will maintain an allowance based on specific inventory items that have shown no activity over a 24-month period. The Company tracks inventory as it is disposed, scrapped or sold at below cost to determine whether additional items on hand should be reduced in value through an allowance method. As of December 31, 2018, and December 31, 2017, the Company has determined that no allowance is required.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is measured at cost, less accumulated depreciation, and is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives, ranging from 5 to 7 years of the respective assets. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Upon sale or retirement of property and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the statements of operations.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company measures assets and liabilities at fair value based on an expected exit price as defined by the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements, which represents the amount that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, as the case may be, in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value may be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby inputs, used in valuation techniques, are assigned a hierarchical level.

 

The following are the hierarchical levels of inputs to measure fair value:

 

· Level 1 – Observable inputs that reflect quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

 

· Level 2 - Inputs reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities; or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

 

 

· Level 3 – Unobservable inputs reflecting the Company’s assumptions incorporated in valuation techniques used to determine fair value. These assumptions are required to be consistent with market participant assumptions that are reasonably available.
   

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses, other current assets, accounts payable & accrued expenses, certain notes payable and an approximate of their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

 

Binomial Calculation Model

 

The Company uses a binomial calculator model to determine fair market value of warrants and options issued.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company derives revenues from the sale of machines and product income. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for transferring those goods or services.

 

Revenue is recognized based on the following five step model:

 

 

o

Identification of the contract with a customer

 

o

Identification of the performance obligations in the contract

 

o

Determination of the transaction price

 

o

Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

 

o

Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation

 

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new accounting standard ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and all the related amendments (“new revenue standard”) to all contracts using the modified retrospective method, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with historic accounting standards under Topic 605. The adoption has had an immaterial impact to the Company’s comparative net income and as such comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. We expect the impact of the adoption of the new standard to be immaterial to the Company’s net income on an ongoing basis.

Performance Obligations

 

Sales of machines and consumable products are recognized when all the following criteria are satisfied: (i) a contract with an end user exists which has commercial substance; (ii) it is probable the Company will collect the amount charged to the end user; and (iii) the Company has completed its performance obligation whereby the end user has obtained control of the product. A contract with commercial substance exists once the Company receives and accepts a purchase order or once it enters into a contract with an end user. If collectibility is not probable, the sale is deferred and not recognized until collection is probable or payment is received. Control of products typically transfers when title and risk of ownership of the product has transferred to the customer. The customer has a 10 day period to inspect the equipment and may return the product if it does not meet the agreed-upon specifications. For contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the total transaction price to each performance obligation in an amount based on the estimated relative standalone selling prices of the promised goods or services underlying each performance obligation. The Company uses an observable price to determine the stand-alone selling price for separate performance obligations or a cost plus margin approach when one is not available. Historically the Company’s contracts have not had multiple performance obligations. The large majority of the Company’s performance obligations are recognized at a point in time related to the sale of machines and consumable products.

 

Sales, value add, and other taxes collected concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Incidental items that are immaterial in the context of the contract are recognized as expense. Payment terms between invoicing and when payment is due is less than one year. As of December 31, 2018, none of the Company’s contracts contained a significant financing component.

 

The Company elected the practical expedient to not adjust the amount of revenue to be recognized under a contract with an end user for the effects of time value of money when the timing difference between receipt of payment and recognition of revenue is less than one year.

 

The majority of the Company’s contracts offer an assurance-type warranty of the products at no additional cost for a period of 3 years. Assurance-type warranties provide a customer with assurance that the related product will function as the parties intended because it complies with agreed-upon specifications. Such warranties do not represent a separate performance obligation. At the time a sale is recognized, the Company estimated future warranty costs, which were trivial.

 

Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Performance Obligations

 

At a given point in time, the Company may have collected payment for future sales of product to begin production. These transactions are deferred until the product transfers to the customer and the performance obligation is considered complete. At December 31, 2018, $906,964 in revenue is expected to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) at the end of the reporting period. The Company expects to recognize all of our unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) performance obligations as revenue in the next twelve months.

 

Contract Costs

 

Costs incurred to obtain a customer contract are not material to the Company. The Company elected to apply the practical expedient to not capitalize contract costs to obtain contracts with a duration of one year or less, which are expensed and included within cost of goods and services.

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

Estimates are used to determine the amount of variable consideration in contracts, the standalone selling price among separate performance obligations and the measure of progress for contracts where revenue is recognized over time. The Company reviews and updates these estimates regularly.

 

Disaggregation of Revenue

 

All machine sales and most consumable products sales are completed in North America.

 

For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, machine sales were $3,759,917 and $1,130,008, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, consumable product sales were $2,869,002 and $439,448, respectively.

 

Cost of Sales

 

Cost of sales represents costs directly related to supplies and materials, machines, freight and delivery, commissions, printing, packaging and other costs.

 

 
F-9
 
Table of Contents

 

Advertising and Marketing Expenses

 

Advertising and marketing expense include cost incurred in public relations, online marketing, magazine, social networking etc. For the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 advertising and marketing expenses were $175,234 and $69,230, respectively.

 

Income Tax Provision

 

Since inception of the Company on August 29, 2013 through March 5, 2017, the Company was taxed as a pass-through entity for federal and state income tax purposes as an S Corporation. For federal and state Income tax purposes, income and losses are passed through to the shareholders. As a pass-through entity, the Company was subject to California state income tax.

 

On March 6, 2017, the Company inadvertently terminated its S election by issuing common stock to an ineligible shareholder. On March 6, 2016 and thereafter, the Company is taxed as a C corporation. The Company is subject to income taxes in the United States.

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under Section 740-10-30 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. 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. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the Statements of Operations in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts.

 

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within income tax expense. Accrued interest and penalties are included within the related tax liability.

 

Contingencies

 

The Company follows subtopic 450-20 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification to report accounting for contingencies. Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or un-asserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or un-asserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

 

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

 

Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed. However, there is no assurance that such matters will not materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial position, and results of operations or cash flows.

 

Marketable Securities

 

We report investments in marketable equity securities, and certain other equity securities, at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale investment securities are included in shareowners’ equity, net of applicable taxes and other adjustments. We currently do not have any available for sale securities.

 

 
F-10
 
Table of Contents

 

Realized gains and losses are accounted for on the specific identification method. Unrealized gains and losses on investment securities classified as trading are included in earnings.

 

We regularly review investment securities for impairment using both quantitative and qualitative criteria. If we do not expect to recover the entire cost basis of the security, we consider the security to be other-than-temporarily impaired (OTTI), and we record the difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and its recoverable amount in earnings and the difference between the security’s recoverable amount and fair value in other comprehensive income. If we intend to sell the security or it is more likely than not we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, the security is also considered OTTI and we recognize the entire difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and its fair value in earnings. For equity securities, we consider the length of time and magnitude of the amount that each security is in an unrealized loss position. If we do not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security, we consider the security to be OTTI, and we record the difference between the security’s amortized cost basis and its fair value in earnings.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718,  Stock Compensation  (“ASC 718”), which requires that stock-based compensation be measured and recognized as an expense in the financial statements and that such expense be measured at the grant date fair value.

 

For awards that vest based on service conditions, the Company uses the straight-line method to allocate compensation expense to reporting periods. The grant date fair value of options granted is calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which requires the use of subjective assumptions including volatility, expected term and the fair value of the underlying common stock, among others.

 

The Company periodically issues performance-based awards. For these awards, vesting will occur upon the achievement of certain milestones. When achievement of the milestone is deemed probable, the Company expenses the compensation of the respective awards over the implicit service period.

 

Stock awards to non-employees are accounted for in accordance with ASC 505-50,  Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees  (“ASC 505-50”). The measurement date for non-employee awards is generally the date performance of services required from the non-employee is complete. For non-employee awards that vest based on service conditions, the Company expenses the value of the awards over the related service period, provided they expect the service condition to be met. The Company records the expense of services rendered by non- employees based on the estimated fair value of the stock option using the Black-Scholes option pricing model over the contractual term of the non-employee. The fair value of unvested non-employee awards is remeasured at each reporting period and expensed over the vesting term of the underlying stock options on a straight-line basis. The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-09  Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting  during the year ended December 31, 2017.

 

The stock-based compensation plans provide that grantees may have the right to exercise an option prior to vesting. Shares purchased upon the exercise of unvested options will be subject to the same vesting schedule as the underlying options and are subject to repurchase at the original exercise price by the Company should the grantee discontinue providing services to the Company for any reason, prior to becoming fully vested in such shares.

 

Issuance Costs Related to Equity and Debt

 

The Company allocates issuance costs between the individual freestanding instruments identified on the same basis as proceeds were allocated. Issuance costs associated with the issuance of stock or equity contracts (i.e., equity-classified warrants and convertible preferred stock) are recorded as a charge against the gross proceeds of the offering. Any issuance costs associated with the issuance of liability-classified warrants are expensed as incurred. Issuance costs associated with the issuance of debt (i.e., convertible debt) is recorded as a direct reduction of the carrying amount of the debt liability but limited to the notional value of the debt. The Company accounts for debt as liabilities measured at amortized cost and amortizes the resulting debt discount to interest expense using the effective interest method over the expected term of the notes pursuant to ASC 835,  Interest  (“ASC 835”). To the extent that the reduction from issuance costs of the carrying amount of the debt liability would reduce the carrying amount below zero, such excess is recorded as interest expense.

Embedded Conversion Features

 

The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” to determine whether the embedded conversion feature(s) should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument is evaluated under ASC 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options.” Under the ASC 470-20, an entity must separately account for the liability and equity components of the convertible debt instruments that may be settled entirely or partially in cash upon conversion in a manner that reflects the issuer’s economic interest cost. The effect of ASC 470-20 on the accounting for our convertible debt instruments is that the equity component is required to be included in the additional paid-in capital section of stockholders’ equity on the consolidated balance sheets and the value of the equity component is treated as original issue discount for purposes of accounting for the debt component of the notes. As a result, we are required to record non-cash interest expense as a result of the amortization of the discounted carrying value of the convertible debt to their face amount over the term of the convertible debt. We report higher interest expense in our financial results because ASC 470-20 requires interest to include both the current period’s amortization of the debt discount and the instrument’s coupon interest.

 

For conventional convertible debt where the rate of conversion is below market value, the Company records a “beneficial conversion feature” (“BCF”) and related debt discount. When the Company records a BCF, the relative fair value of the BCF is recorded as a debt discount against the face amount of the respective debt instrument (offset to additional paid in capital) and amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt.

 

Derivatives and Hedging

 

On July 1, 2017, the Company early adopted ASU 2017-11, “ Earnings Per Share (Topic 260) Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), ” which addresses the complexity of accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features. The Company has concluded that the retroactive provisions of ASU 2017-11 had no impact on the accounting for the Company’s previously outstanding warrant which had been issued to the warrant holder as stock compensation.

 

ASU 2017-11 changes the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. ASU 2017-11 also clarifies existing disclosure requirements for equity- classified instruments. As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option) no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value as a result of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments, the amendments require entities that present earnings per share (EPS) in accordance with Topic 260 to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS. Convertible instruments with embedded conversion options that have down round features are now subject to the specialized guidance for contingent beneficial conversion features (in Subtopic 470-20, “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options”), including related EPS guidance (ASC 260). Part II of ASU 2017-11 recharacterize the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of ASC 480 that now are presented as pending content in the ASC, to a scope exception. Those amendments do not have an accounting effect.

 

Prior to the early adoption of ASU 2017-11, an equity-linked financial instrument with a down round feature that otherwise is not required to be classified as a liability under the guidance in ASC 480 is evaluated under the guidance in ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” to determine whether it meets the definition of a derivative. If it meets that definition, the instrument (or embedded feature) is evaluated to determine whether it is indexed to an entity’s own stock as part of the analysis of whether it qualifies for a scope exception from derivative accounting. Generally, for warrants and conversion options embedded in financial instruments that are deemed to have a debt host (assuming the underlying shares are readily convertible to cash or the contract provides for net settlement such that the embedded conversion option meets the definition of a derivative), the existence of a down round feature results in an instrument not being considered indexed to an entity’s own stock. This results in a reporting entity being required to classify the freestanding financial instrument or the bifurcated conversion option as a liability, which the entity must measure at fair value initially and at each subsequent reporting date.

 

ASU 2017-11 revises the guidance for instruments with down round features in ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity,” which is considered in determining whether an equity-linked financial instrument qualifies for a scope exception from derivative accounting. An entity still is required to determine whether instruments would be classified in equity under the guidance in ASC 815-40 in determining whether they qualify for that scope exception. If they do qualify, freestanding instruments with down round features are no longer classified as liabilities and embedded conversion options with down round features are no longer bifurcated.

 

For entities that present EPS in accordance with ASC 260, and when the down round feature is included in an equity-classified freestanding financial instrument, the value of the effect of the down round feature is treated as a dividend when it is triggered and as a numerator adjustment in the basic EPS calculation. This reflects the occurrence of an economic transfer of value to the holder of the instrument, while alleviating the complexity and income statement volatility associated with fair value measurement on an ongoing basis. Convertible instruments are unaffected by ASU 2017-11.

 

Part I of ASU 2017-11 are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. ASU 2017-11 Part 1 should be applied retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature for each prior reporting period presented in accordance with the guidance on accounting changes in paragraphs ASC 250-10-45-5 through 45-10.

The Company has determined that there were no previously outstanding financial instruments that fall under the scope of ASU 2017-11. Therefore, the Company has not determined and has not recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet.

 

ASU 2017-11 Part II does not require any transition guidance because those amendments do not have an accounting effect.

 

The Company considered the impact of Part 1 of ASU 2017-11 and determined the Company had no financial instruments previously carried as derivative liabilities that were deemed to be such on the basis of embedded features containing down round provisions, resulting in the strike price being reduced on the basis of the pricing of future equity offerings. As a result, upon the early adoption provisions of ASU 2017-11, the Company did not record any adjustment to its books to account for any transition accounting issues.

 

Net Loss Per Common Share

 

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common stock equivalents are determined using the treasury stock method. For diluted net loss per share purposes, the Company excludes stock options and other stock-based awards, including shares issued as a result of option exercises but which are subject to repurchase by the Company, whose effect would be anti-dilutive from the calculation. During the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, common stock equivalents were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per common share, as their effect was anti-dilutive due to the net loss incurred. Therefore, basic and diluted net loss per share was the same in all periods presented.

 

The Company had 15,654,660 and 13,217,500 potentially dilutive securities that have been excluded from the computation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, as they would be anti-dilutive.

 

Going Concern

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company has negative working capital, recurring losses, and does not have a source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs. These factors raise 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 upon its ability to successfully execute the business plan and attain profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

In the coming year, the Company’s foreseeable cash requirements will relate to continual development of the operations of its business, maintaining its good standing and making the requisite filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the payment of expenses associated with operations and business developments. The Company may experience a cash shortfall and be required to raise additional capital.

 

Historically, it has mostly relied upon convertible notes payable and cash flows from operations to finance its operations and growth. Management may raise additional capital by retaining net earnings or through future private offerings of the Company’s stock or through loans from private investors, although there can be no assurance that it will be able to obtain such financing. The Company’s failure to do so could have a material and adverse effect upon it and its shareholders.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the effect of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

 

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11,  Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory  (“ASU 2015- 11”). ASU 2015-11, which simplifies the measurement of inventories valued under most methods, including the Company’s inventories valued under FIFO — the first-in, first-out cost method. Inventories valued under LIFO — the last-in, first-out method — are excluded. Under this new guidance, inventories valued under these methods would be valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value, with net realizable value defined as the estimated selling price less reasonable costs to sell the inventory. This guidance is effective for annual reporting beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within the year of adoption, with early application permitted. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, “ Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities ,” which addresses the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of financial assets and liabilities. This ASU primarily affects the accounting for equity investments, financial liabilities under the fair value option and the presentation and disclosure requirements for financial instruments. In addition, this ASU clarifies the valuation allowance assessment when recognizing deferred tax assets resulting from unrealized losses on available-for-sale debt securities. This standard became effective on January 1, 2018. This standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02,  Leases (Topic 842) , or ASU 2016-02. ASU 2016-02 requires that lessees recognize in the statement of financial position for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis, and a right-of-use asset, which is an asset representing the lessee’s right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Lessees must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The modified retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented. Lessees may not apply a full retrospective transition approach. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09,  Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting  (“ASU 2016-09”). ASU 2016-09 will simplify the income tax consequences, accounting for forfeitures and classification on the statements of consolidated cash flows. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company elected to adopt ASU 2016-09 in the first quarter of 2017 retrospectively to January 1, 2017. As a result of adopting ASU No. 2016-09 during the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company adjusted its accumulated deficit related to the accounting policy election to recognize the impact of share-based award forfeitures only as they occur rather than by applying an estimated forfeiture rate as previously required. ASU No. 2016-09 requires that this change be applied using a modified-retrospective transition method by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to accumulated deficit as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the guidance is adopted. As a result of this adoption, the Company recorded a decrease to accumulated deficit of approximately $28 thousand with an offset to Additional Paid-in Capital as of January 1, 2017.

 

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15,  Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force) , or ASU 2016-15. The amendments in ASU 2016-15 address eight specific cash flow issues and apply to all entities that are required to present a statement of cash flows under FASB Accounting Standards Codification 230,  Statement of Cash Flows . The amendments in ASU 2016-15 are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption during an interim period. We have evaluated the impact of ASU No. 2016-15 and noted it had no impact on our consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

 

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18,  Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issue Task Force) , or ASU 2016-18. This new standard addresses the diversity that exists in the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash on the statement of cash flows. The amendments in ASU 2016-18 require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within the year of adoption, with early adoption permitted. Our consolidated financial statements reflect this standard for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

Note 6: Convertible Notes Payable

 

In December 2017, the Company issued non-interest bearing convertible debentures to 36 investors in exchange for $1,643,500 (the “2017 Notes”). The 2017 Notes have a three-year term and are convertible into the Company’s common stock at a per share price of $0.20 at any time subsequent to the issuance date. On the maturity date, if not previously converted, the 2017 Notes are subject to a mandatory conversion to the Company’s common stock. In January 2018, the Company issued non-interest bearing convertible notes with the same terms as the 2017 Notes in exchange for an additional $75,000. The Company determined that the 2017 Notes qualified as conventional convertible instruments. The Company evaluated the conversion feature and determined that no beneficial conversion feature existed on the issuance dates. Imputed interest of $68,556 was calculated and accrued at 4% and recorded to additional paid in capital.

 

In March 2018, the Company issued non-interest bearing convertible notes to two investors in exchange for $1,500,000 (the “2018 Notes”). The 2018 Notes have a one-year term and are convertible into the Company’s common stock at an initial per share price of $0.73 at any time subsequent to the issuance date. The share price will be adjusted to prevent dilution upon the Company issuing increasing the fully dilutive basis of shares outstanding. Upon either the maturity date or a successful financing involving the Company’s common stock or a financial instrument convertible into common stock at a valuation of $45,000,000 or more, the 2018 Notes are subject to mandatory conversion to the Company’s common stock, if not previously converted.

 

Further the Company evaluated the conversion feature and determined that there was no beneficial conversion feature or derivative liabilities. Imputed interest of $47,014 was calculated and accrued at 4% and recorded to additional paid in capital.

On December 22, 2017, the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“Tax Act”) was enacted into law making significant changes to the Internal Revenue Code. Changes include, but are not limited to, a federal corporate tax rate decrease from 35% to 21% for tax years beginning after December 31, 2017. The Company was required to recognize the effect of the tax law changes in the period of enactment, such as re-measuring our U.S. deferred tax assets and liabilities as well as reassessing the net realizability of our deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Tax Act did not give rise to any material impact on the balance sheet and statement of operations due to the Company's historical loss position and the full valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets.

 

In December 2017, the Securities and Exchange Commission staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“SAB 118”), which allowed the Company to record provisional amounts during a measurement period not to extend beyond one year from the enactment date. As such, in accordance with SAB 118, the Company completed its analysis during the fourth quarter of 2018 considering current legislation and guidance resulting in no material adjustments from the provisional amounts recorded during the prior year.

 

Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to use the existing deferred tax assets. Based on the available objective evidence, management believes it is not more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will be fully realizable for the period ending December 31, 2017. On the basis of this evaluation, as of December 31, 2017, a full allowance has been recorded on its net deferred tax assets.

 

As of December 31, 2018, the Company had $630,883 of federal and $2,430,893 of state net operating loss carryforwards available to reduce future taxable income which will begin to expire on December 31, 2037. As of December 31, 2018, the Company has $1,765,797 of federal net operating loss carryforwards available to reduce future taxable income which carryforward indefinitely.

 

Federal and state laws can impose substantial restrictions on the utilization of net operating loss carry-forwards in the event of an “ownership change”, as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Company is in the process of determining if significant limitations would be placed on the utilization of its net operating loss carry-forwards due to prior ownership changes.

 

As of December 31, 2018, the Company does not have any unrecognized tax benefits. As of December 31, 2018, the Company has not recognized any interest or penalties for unrecognized tax benefits.

 

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. and California. Tax Years 2015 to 2018 remain subject to examination for federal income tax purposes, and tax years 2014 through 2018 remain open to examination for California income tax purposes. All net operating losses generated to date are subject to adjustment for U.S. federal and California income tax purposes.

 

Note 8: Equity

 

Common Stock

The Company may terminate Executive’s employment for Cause immediately upon Notice from the Company to Executive.

Note 11: Accrued Liabilities – Other

 

Prior to the Merger, China Grand Resorts, Inc., recorded various liabilities that were incurred by former related parties. The current management team is not aware of any written agreements in place governing the terms of the loans nor have they been in contact with the debt holders however recognizes that China Grand Resorts, Inc. previously reported these amounts as liabilities of the Company. In accordance with ASC 405-20-40 the liabilities may only be removed from the Company’s financial statements if they are paid, formally settled or judicially released. Management believes the relevant statute of limitations has passed and that no enforceable legal claim exists in relation to these liabilities of $1,642,118 but does not believe that is sufficient to remove the liability from the financial statements. Management does not intend to remove these liabilities, $1,642,118, from the Company’s financial statements until such time that the liability is formally settled or judicially released in accordance with ASC 405-20-40. Due to the lack of written agreements and other factors noted above management concluded to no longer accrue interest on these loans.

 

Note 12: Subsequent Events

 

Subsequent to December 31, 2018, the Company filed a registration statement (S-1A) that was accepted by the SEC on February 13, 2019. The registration statement allows for the creation of 13,592,000 additional equity shares. These shares are related to the 2017 convertible notes and the Altar Rock Warrants. The filing of the registration also allowed the 2018 notes to be converted to restricted equity shares. The 2018 note created an additional 2,062,160 shares which were converted on March 22, 2019.

Item 9A. Controls and procedures

 

Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-K, we have concluded that, based on such evaluation, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

 

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all controls systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving its objectives.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Other than as described above, there have not been any changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the Company's fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2018 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Board Composition

 

Corporate Governance and Director Independence

 

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board of Directors, which consist of four members.

 

Our two non-employee directors, Mr. Wessler and Mr. Winston, are independent using the definition for “Independent Directors” set out in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605(a)(2). Under Nasdaq rules, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if, in the opinion of that company’s Board of Directors, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

 

Our Board of Directors has undertaken a review of its composition, the composition of its proposed committees and the independence of each director. Based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, our Board of Directors has determined that neither Mr. Wessler nor Mr. Winston have any relationships that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and that each of these directors is “independent” as that term is defined under the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the listing requirements and rules of Nasdaq. In making this determination, our Board of Directors considered the current and prior relationships that each non-employee director has with our Company and all other facts and circumstances our board of directors deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each non-employee director.

 

In making this determination, our Board of Directors considered the current and prior relationships that each non-employee director has with our company and all other facts and circumstances our Board of Directors deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each non-employee director.

 

Family Relationships

 

There are no family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers.

 

Board Committees

 

There are currently no committees of the Board of Directors.

 

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

 

Due to the small size and early stage of the Company, we have not adopted a formal policy on whether the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions should be separate or may be combined.

 

Our Board of Directors is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes on behalf of our company. The Board of Directors receives and reviews periodic reports from management, auditors, legal counsel, and others, as considered appropriate regarding our company’s assessment of risks. The Board of Directors focuses on the most significant risks facing our company and our company’s general risk management strategy, and also ensures that risks undertaken by our Company are consistent with the board’s appetite for risk. While the board oversees our company’s risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing our company and that our board leadership structure supports this approach.

 

Code of Ethics

 

Our board of directors intends to adopt a code of ethics that our officers, directors and any person who may perform similar functions will be subject to.

Jacksam did not ever adopt such a stock option plan and the options Jacksam was obligated to grant to Mr. Adams have not been granted and, as a result of the Merger, will not be granted. We are in the process of renegotiating this term with Mr. Adams. Mr. Adams is also entitled to health insurance and other benefits if and to the extent provided by Jacksam to other executives.

 

If we terminate Mr. Adams for cause, or if he resigns for good reason (both as defined in Mr. Adams employment agreement), we owe Mr. Adams his salary and benefits for a period of twelve months following his termination. If he dies, we owe Mr. Adams’ estate six month’s salary.

 

Mr. Adams was promoted to our Chief Executive Officer on April 10, 2018, by our board, following the decision by Mr. Davis to step down from that office.

 

Daniel Davis

 

We entered into a five-year employment agreement on December 22, 2017, with Mr. Davis to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of Jacksam in exchange for a base salary of $180,000 per annum, which shall automatically increase at a rate of five percent per year, in addition to any increases that our board, in its discretion, may determine is appropriate. In addition, Mr. Davis is eligible for a performance bonus of up to thirty percent of his then-applicable annual salary, as determined by our board in its good faith discretion. Mr. Davis’ employment agreement also provides that Jacksam is to provide Mr. Davis with a grant of options to purchase up to 100,000 shares of Jacksam common stock at an undetermined exercise price, to vest over three years, upon Jacksam adopting an equity compensation plan. Jacksam did not ever adopt such a stock option plan and the options Jacksam was obligated to grant to Mr. Davis have not been granted and, as a result of the Merger, will not be granted. We are in the process of renegotiating this term with Mr. Davis. Mr. Davis is also entitled to health insurance and other benefits if and to the extent provided by Jacksam to other executives.

 

If we terminate Mr. Davis for cause, or if he resigns for good reason (both as defined in Mr. Davis employment agreement), we owe Mr. Davis his salary and benefits for a period of twelve months following his termination. If he dies, we owe Mr. Davis’ estate six month’s salary.

 

Mr. Davis stepped down as our Chief Executive Officer on April 10, 2018 but remains employed in charge of new product development on the same terms and conditions as are contained in his employment agreement.

We do not provide a pension plan for our employees, and none of our named executive officers participated in a nonqualified deferred compensation plan in 2017.

Director Compensation

 

The Company plans to appoint additional directors and may reimburse its directors for expenses incurred in connection with attending board meetings. The Company has not paid any director’s fees or other cash compensation for services rendered as a director since our inception to the date of this filing. The Company has no formal plan for compensating its directors for their service in their capacity as directors.

 

Employee Benefit and Stock Plans

 

We have not adopted any employee equity compensation plans. We provide basic health insurance coverage to our fulltime employees. We have not adopted any retirement or deferred compensation plans for any of our employees.

 

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

 

The Company does not have a compensation committee. The board of directors conducts reviews with regards to the compensation of the directors and the Chief Executive Officer once a year. To make its recommendations on such compensation, the board of directors does take into account the types of compensation and the amounts paid to officers of comparable publicly traded companies.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters

 

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission rules, shares of our Common Stock which may be acquired upon exercise of stock options or warrants which are currently exercisable or which become exercisable within 60 days of the date of the applicable table below are deemed beneficially owned by the holders of such options and warrants and are deemed outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage of ownership of such person, but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage of ownership of any other person.

 

The percentage of shares beneficially owned is computed as of March 21, 2019, on the basis of 58,851,972 shares of Common Stock outstanding,. The following table sets forth information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our Common Stock as of November 12, 2018 (the “Determination Date”), by (i) each stockholder known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our Common Stock (our only classes of voting securities), (ii) each of our directors and executive officers, and (iii) all of our directors and executive officers as a group. To the best of our knowledge, except as otherwise indicated, each of the persons named in the table has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares of our Common Stock beneficially owned by such person, except to the extent such power may be shared with a spouse. To our knowledge, none of the shares listed below are held under a voting trust or similar agreement, except as noted. Other than the Merger, to our knowledge, there is no arrangement, including any pledge by any person of our securities or any of our parents, the operation of which may at a subsequent date result in a change in control of the Company.

 

Unless otherwise indicated, the address of all listed stockholders is c/o Jacksam Corporation, 30191 Avenida de Las Banderas, Rancho Santa Margarita, California 92688.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions , and Director Independence

 

As part of the Merger, Jacksam Corporation purchased and subsequently returned to treasury 30 million shares of our common stock from our former sole officer and director, Bryan Glass, for total consideration of $340,000.

 

There have been no other transactions since January 1, 2017 to which we have been a party, in which the amount involved exceeded or will exceed $50,000, and in which any of our directors, executive officers or holders of more than 5% of Jacksam’s pre-Merger capital stock, or an affiliate or immediate family member thereof, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, other than compensation and other arrangements that are described in the section titled “Executive Compensation.”

 

On November 22, 2017, Michael Sakala purchased a 2017 Debenture in the amount of $50,000. Mr. Sakala was not an officer or director of Jacksam at that time. He became the CFO of Jacksam, pre-Merger, on April 30, 2018. He became our CFO as of the date of the Merger, September 14, 2018.

On November 8, 2018, we entered into a Line of Credit Agreement with Brass Point Capital, LLC, a Massachusetts limited liability company controlled by Doug Leighton, who is also a principal in Altar Rock Capital, one of our stockholders and the holder of the Altar Rock Warrant. The Line of Credit Agreement allows us, at the discretion of the lender, to borrow up to $250,000 by making specific requests therefor which draws, if any, will be due and payable on individually determined terms.
