C LS HOLDINGS USA, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
August 31, 2017
(Unaudited)

Note 1 – Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Business

CLS Holdings USA, Inc. (the “Company”) was originally incorporated as Adelt Design, Inc. (“Adelt”) on March 31, 2011 to manufacture and market carpet binding art. Production and marketing of carpet binding art never commenced.
 
On November 12, 2014, CLS Labs, Inc. (“CLS Labs”) acquired 10,000,000 shares, or 55.6%, of the outstanding shares of common stock of Adelt from its founder, Larry Adelt. On that date, Jeffrey Binder, the Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of CLS Labs, was appointed Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. On November 20, 2014, Adelt adopted amended and restated articles of incorporation, thereby changing its name to CLS Holdings USA, Inc. Effective December 10, 2014, the Company effected a reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock at a ratio of 1-for-0.625 (the “Reverse Split”), wherein 0.625 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued in exchange for each share of common stock issued and outstanding. As a result, 6,250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock were issued to CLS Labs in exchange for the 10,000,000 shares that it owned by virtue of the above-referenced purchase from Larry Adelt.

On April 29, 2015, the Company, CLS Labs and CLS Merger Inc., a Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of CLS Holdings(“Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) and completed a merger, whereby CLS Merger Inc. merged with and into CLS Labs, with CLS Labs remaining as the surviving entity (the “Merger”). Upon the consummation of the Merger, the shares of the common stock of CLS Holdings owned by CLS Labs were extinguished and the former stockholders of CLS Labs were issued an aggregate of 15,000,000 (post Reverse Split) shares of common stock in CLS Holdings in exchange for their shares of common stock in CLS Labs. As a result of the Merger, the Company acquired the business of CLS Labs and abandoned its previous business.
 
The Company has a patent pending proprietary method of extracting cannabinoids from cannabis plants and converting the resulting cannabinoid extracts into concentrates such as oils, waxes, edibles and shatter. These concentrates may be ingested in a number of ways, including through vaporization via electronic cigarettes (“e-cigarettes”), and used for a variety of pharmaceutical and other purposes. Internal testing of this extraction method and conversion process has revealed that it produces a cleaner, higher quality product and a significantly higher yield than the cannabinoid extraction processes currently existing in the marketplace. The Company has not commercialized its patent pending proprietary process or otherwise earned any revenues.  The Company plans to generate revenues through licensing, fee-for-service and joint venture arrangements related to its patent pending proprietary method of extracting cannabinoids from cannabis plants and converting the resulting cannabinoid extracts into saleable concentrates.

The Company has adopted a fiscal year end of May 31st.

Basis of Presentation

These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and are expressed in US dollars.

Principals of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CLS Holdings USA, Inc., and its wholly owned operating subsidiaries, CLS Labs, Inc. and CLS Labs Colorado, Inc.  All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation of these entities.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $12,099 and $78,310 as of August 31, 2017 and May 31, 2017, respectively.
Property, Plant and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at the lower of cost or estimated net recoverable amount, and is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives.  Computer equipment is being depreciated over a three-year period.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company continually monitors its banking relationships and consequently has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Advertising and Marketing Costs

Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred no advertising and marketing costs for the three months ended August 31, 2017 and 2016.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses are charged to operations as incurred. The Company incurred no research and development costs for the three months ended August 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method, which requires the establishment of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities at enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when such amounts are realized or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to the extent deferred tax assets may not be recoverable after consideration of the future reversal of deferred tax liabilities, tax planning strategies, and projected future taxable income.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments

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

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

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

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

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by market data.
 
Derivative Financial Instruments

Derivatives are recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet at fair value. The conversion features of the convertible notes are embedded derivatives and are separately valued and accounted for on the consolidated balance sheet with changes in fair value recognized during the period of change as a separate component of other income/expense. Fair values for exchange-traded securities and derivatives are based on quoted market prices. The pricing model the Company used for determining the fair value of its derivatives is the Lattice Model. Valuations derived from this model are subject to ongoing internal and external verification and review. The model uses market-sourced inputs such as interest rates and stock price volatilities. Selection of these inputs involves management’s judgment and may impact net income (see note 11). 
Revenue Recognition

For revenue from product sales, the Company recognizes revenue using four basic criteria that must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) is based on management’s judgment regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required.

The Company has not generated revenue to date.
 
Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

Basic net earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period, while fully-diluted net earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive securities assumed to be outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive securities consist of options and warrants to purchase common stock, and convertible debt. Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.
 
The Company uses the treasury stock method to calculate the impact of outstanding stock options and warrants. Stock options and warrants for which the exercise price exceeds the average market price over the period have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings per common share and, accordingly, are excluded from the calculation.

A net loss causes all outstanding stock options and warrants to be antidilutive. As a result, the basic and dilutive losses per common share are the same for the three months ended August 31, 2017 and 2016.

Commitments and Contingencies
 
Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur.  The Company’s management 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 unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims brought to such legal counsel’s attention as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
 
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements.  If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
 
Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the nature of the guarantee would be disclosed.

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

In August 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2016-15,  Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230).  The update addresses eight specific cash flow issues and is intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. This update will be effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within the reporting period. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the update on its financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04,  Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment , which simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In computing the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2, current U.S. GAAP requires the performance of procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of assets and liabilities (including unrecognized assets and liabilities) following the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Instead, the amendments under this ASU require the goodwill impairment test to be performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The ASU becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2020. The amendments in this ASU will be applied on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed.
 
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09,  Stock Compensation - Scope of Modification Accounting , which provides guidance on which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. The ASU requires that an entity account for the effects of a modification unless the fair value (or calculated value or intrinsic value, if used), vesting conditions and classification (as equity or liability) of the modified award are all the same as for the original award immediately before the modification. The ASU becomes effective for us on January 1, 2018, and will be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period. The Company is currently assessing the impact that this standard will have on any awards that are modified once this standard is adopted.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
Note 2 – Going Concern

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred net losses from operations resulting in an accumulated deficit of $9,557,295 as of August 31, 2017. Further losses are anticipated in the development of the Company’s business raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with loans, the proceeds from the sale of securities, and/or revenues from operations. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

Note 9 – Notes Payable

Related Party Notes Payable

On May 31, 2017, the Company entered into an Omnibus Loan Amendment Agreement (the “Omnibus Loan Amendment”) with Jeffrey I. Binder, Frank Koretsky, Newcan Investment Partners LLC and CLS CO 2016, LLC (collectively, the “Insiders”).  Pursuant to the Omnibus Loan Amendment, the Company agreed with the Insiders to amend certain terms of loans the Insiders made to the Company for working capital purposes, which loans were initially demand loans, and, except for recent loans made in 2017, were later memorialized as convertible loans (the “Insider Loans”), in exchange for the agreement of the Insiders to convert all Insider Loans where funds were advanced prior to January 1, 2017, which totaled $2,537,750, plus $166,490 of accrued interest thereon, into an aggregate of 10,816,960 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.25 per share, and forego the issuance of warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock upon conversion.  This resulted in the issuance of an additional 7,609,910 shares compared to the original number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Insider Loans prior to the Omnibus Loan Agreement. The Company valued the shares at $0.125, which was the market price of the Company’s stock at the conversion date, and charged the amount of $951,239 to loss on modification of debt during the twelve months ended May 31, 2017. The Company entered into the Omnibus Loan Amendment in order to ease the debt burden on the Company and prevent it from defaulting on the Insider Loans.
 
Pursuant to the Omnibus Loan Amendment, the following amendments were made to the Insider Loans: (a) the Company reduced the conversion price on the Insider Loans from between $0.75 and $1.07 per share of common stock to $0.25 per share of common stock, in those cases where the conversion price was greater than $0.25, which reduced conversion price exceeded the closing price of the common stock during the three months prior to the Omnibus Loan Amendment; (b) the Company deleted the requirement to issue warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock upon conversion of the Insider Loans; (c) the Company amended one Insider Loan to permit conversion of only the portion of the Insider Loan related to services that were provided to it prior to January 1, 2017; and (d) the Company amended the terms of the Insider Loans where funds were advanced on or after January 1, 2017, which Insider Loans were not converted into the Company’s common stock, to provide for, where not already the case, a 10% interest rate per annum, a $0.25 conversion price per share of common stock, and the deletion of the requirement that the Company issue warrants to purchase its common stock upon conversion of such Insider Loans.

The following tables summarize the Company’s loan balances at August 31, 2017 and May 31, 2017:

Convertible promissory note payable to Old Main Capital, LLC (“Old Main”) dated March 18, 2016 and bearing interest at a rate of 8% (the “8% Note”).  The 8% Note was issued for Old Main’s commitment to enter into an equity line transaction with the Company and prepare all of the related transaction documents.  Old Main may, at its option, convert all or a portion of the note and accrued but unpaid interest into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $1.07 per share (post Reverse-Split) (the “8% Fixed Conversion Price”).  The 8% Fixed Conversion Price is subject to adjustment if, at any time while this note is outstanding, the Company should issue any equity security with an effective price per share that is lower than the 8% Fixed Conversion Price (the “8% Base Conversion Price”), other than certain exempt issuances.  In such an instance, the 8% Fixed Conversion Price will be lowered to match the 8% Base Conversion Price.   The shares underlying the 8% Note are subject to a registration rights agreement.   At the earlier of September 18, 2016 or two trading days after this registration statement becomes effective, the Company must begin to redeem 1/6th of the face amount of the note and any accrued but unpaid interest on a monthly basis. Such amortization payment may be made, at its option, in cash or, subject to certain conditions, in common stock pursuant to a conversion rate equal to the lower of (a) $1.07 (post Reverse-Split) or (b) 75% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price of the common stock in the twenty consecutive trading days ending on the trading day that is immediately prior to the applicable conversion date.  The Company recognized a discount of $172,108 on the value of the embedded derivative.  
 
On November 28, 2016, the 8% Note was amended converting the note from an installment note to a “balloon” note, with all principal and accrued interest due on March 18, 2017.  In addition, the Fixed Conversion Price was changed to a variable conversion price equal to the lesser of the prior Fixed Conversion Price or 75% of the lowest VWAP in the fifteen trading days ending on the trading day immediately prior to the conversion date.  The November 28, 2016 amendment required an extinguishment analysis of the 8% Note resulting in gain on extinguishment of debt in the amount of $81,496 for the nine months ended February 28, 2017.  The gain on extinguishment of debt was included in additional paid-in capital at February 28, 2017.  The 8% Note was revalued as of the November 28, 2016 amendment and the Company recognized a discount of $169,476 on the value of the embedded derivative. At February 28, 2017 and May 31, 2016, the amount of discount remaining on these notes was $118,998 and $163,586, respectively. 
 
On March 27, 2017, the Company entered into a further amendment to the 8% Note, whereby the Company agreed to increase the outstanding amount due under the 8% Note as of March 18, 2017 by 5%, or $10,000.  In exchange for doing so, Old Main agreed to extend the maturity of the 8% Note until July 1, 2017 and to suspend conversions under the 8% Note until July 1, 2017.  Also during the year ended May 31, 2017, the Company accrued interest in the amount of $17,207 on the 8% Note.
 
On July 6, 2017, the 8% Note was further amended, whereby the maturity date was extended to July 15, 2017 and the outstanding balance was increased by $15,750. On August 23, 2017, the 8% Note was amended again to extend the maturity date to September 15, 2017.  During the three months ended August 31, 2017, the Company accrued interest in the amount of $4,449 on the 8% Note, and $30,411 of the discount was amortized to interest expense.

Beneficial Conversion Features

The 8% Note contains conversion features that create derivative liabilities. The pricing model the Company used for determining fair value of its derivatives is the Lattice Model. Valuations derived from this model are subject to ongoing internal and external verification and review. The model uses market-sourced inputs such as interest rates and stock price volatilities. Selection of these inputs involves management’s judgment and may impact net income.  The derivative component of the 8% Note was valued at issuance, at conversion, at restructure, and at each period end.  See note 11.

Certain of the Company’s other convertible notes payable contain beneficial conversion features that are not derivatives, but which require valuation in order to determine the discount to the related convertible note payable. The value of these conversion features is calculated using the intrinsic value method, whereby the amount of the discount is calculated as the difference between the conversion price and the market price of the underlying common stock at the date of issuance multiplied by the number of shares issuable.
 
Note 10 – Stockholders’ Equity
 
The Company’s authorized capital stock consists of 250,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. The Company had 32,876,944 and 32,852,944 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of August 31, 2017 and May 31, 2017, respectively.
 
The Company recorded imputed interest of $271 and $271 during the three months ended August 31, 2017 and 2016 on related party payables due to a director and officer of the Company.

Stock Issued for Services

On July 13, 2017, the Company issued 24,000 shares of common stock to a consultant in exchange for a $6,000 accrued liability for services previously provided.  This resulted in a gain on the settlement of accounts payable in the amount of $3,480.

Note 11 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

In March 2016, the Company entered into convertible note agreements containing beneficial conversion features with Old Main.  One of the features is a ratchet reset provision which, in general, reduces the conversion price should the Company issue equity with an effective price per share that is lower than the stated conversion price in the note agreement. The Company accounts for the fair value of the conversion feature in accordance with ASC 815- Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging and Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 07-05- Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock (“EITF 07-05”). The Company carries the embedded derivative on its balance sheet at fair value and accounts for any unrealized change in fair value as a component of its results of operations.

The following summarizes the Company’s derivative financial liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis at August 31, 2017 and May 31, 2017.

Note 12 – Commitment and Contingencies

In connection with the Colorado Arrangement, on April 17, 2015, pursuant to an Industrial Lease Agreement (the “Lease”), CLS Labs Colorado leased 14,392 square feet of warehouse and office space (the “Leased Real Property”) in a building in Denver, Colorado where certain intended activities, including growing, extraction, conversion, assembly and packaging of cannabis and other plant materials, are permitted by and in compliance with state, city and local laws, rules, ordinances and regulations. The Lease has an initial term of seventy-two (72) months and provides CLS Labs Colorado with two options to extend the term of the lease by up to an aggregate of ten (10) additional years.  In August 2017, as a result of the Company’s decision to suspend its proposed operations in Colorado, CLS Labs Colorado asked its landlord to be relieved from its obligations under the Lease, but the parties have not yet reached an agreement on how to proceed.

In August 2017, the Company’s Colorado subsidiary received a demand letter from its Colorado landlord requesting the forfeiture of the $50,000 security deposit, $10,000 in expenses, $15,699 in remaining rent due under the lease agreement and $30,000 to buy out the remaining amounts due under the lease.  These expenses, which are a liability of the Company’s Colorado subsidiary, have been accrued on the Balance Sheet as of August 31, 2017.

Employment Agreements
 
CLS Labs and Jeffrey Binder entered into a five-year employment agreement effective October 1, 2014. Under the agreement, Mr. Binder serves as CLS Labs’ Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer and is entitled to receive an annual salary of $150,000. Under the agreement, Mr. Binder is also entitled to receive a performance bonus equal to 2% of CLS Labs’ annual EBITDA, up to a maximum annual cash compensation of $1 million (including his base salary), and annual stock options, exercisable at the fair market value of CLS Labs’ common stock on the date of grant, in an amount equal to 2% of its annual EBITDA up to $42.5 million and 4% of its annual EBITDA in excess of $42.5 million.  On April 28, 2015, CLS Labs and the Company entered into an addendum to Mr. Binder’s employment agreement whereby Mr. Binder agreed that following the merger of CLS Labs and a subsidiary of the Company, in addition to his obligations to CLS Labs, he would serve the Company and its subsidiaries in such roles as the Company may request.  In exchange, the Company agreed to assume the obligations of CLS Labs to grant Mr. Binder annual stock options, as referenced above.  Mr. Binder continues to receive an annual salary of $150,000 from CLS Labs for serving as its Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer.  My Binder has deferred all of the salary payable to him under his employment agreement through August 31, 2017.  On July 20, 2016, March 31, 2017, and August 23, 2017, the Company issued Mr. Binder convertible notes in exchange for $250,000, $112,500, and $62,500, respectively, in deferred salary, among other amounts owed to Mr. Binder by the Company.  As of August 31, 2017 and May 31, 2017, the Company had accrued compensation due to Mr. Binder in the amount of $12,500 and $37,500.
 
Effective August 1, 2015, the Company and Alan Bonsett entered into a five-year employment agreement. Pursuant to the agreement, Mr. Bonsett commenced serving as the Company’s Chief Operating Officer on August 15, 2015. Under the agreement, Mr. Bonsett is entitled to receive an annual salary of $150,000. Further, he is entitled to receive a performance bonus equal to 2% of the Company’s annual EBITDA, up to a maximum annual cash compensation of $1 million (including his base salary), and annual stock options, exercisable at the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, in an amount equal to 2% of its annual EBITDA up to $42.5 million and 4% of its annual EBITDA in excess of $42.5 million. Additionally, Mr. Bonsett received a one-time signing bonus of 250,000 (post Reverse-Split) shares of restricted common stock of the Company, valued at $327,500, which became fully vested one year from the effective date of the agreement. Mr. Bonsett, as an owner of Picture Rock Holdings, LLC (“PRH”), will indirectly receive the benefits of the Colorado Arrangement discussed in Note 12. The business to be operated by PRH pursuant to the Colorado Arrangement has not yet produced revenues. Mr. Bonsett has agreed to defer his salary effective July 1, 2017; at August 31, 2017, the Company had accrued compensation due to Mr. Bonsett in the amount of $25,000.

At August 31, 2017 and May 31, 2017, the Company had accrued salary due to Michael Abrams, a former officer of the Company, prior to his September 1, 2015 termination, in the amount of $16,250.

Note 13 – Subsequent Events
 
On September 20, 2017, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement, whereby it agreed to exchange the April 2015 Note in the original principal balance of $200,000 for 1,500,000 shares of its common stock. The holder of the April 2015 Note had previously sold it for $105,219, which represented the balance due by the Company, to StarForce Media, Inc., an entity that is not affiliated with the Company.

  On September 25, 2017, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement, whereby it agreed to exchange the 8% Note in the original principal balance of $200,000 for up to 4,500,000 shares of its common stock. Old Main, the original holder of the 8% Note, had previously sold it for $382,496.  The balance due by the Company under the 8% Note at the time it was sold was approximately $325,000.

On October 1, 2017, the Company and Mr. Alan Bonsett, the Company’s Chief Operating Officer, mutually agreed to end his employment with the Company following the expiration of Mr. Bonsett’s employment agreement.  Mr. Bonsett may provide consulting services to the Company in the future on an as needed basis.

On October 9, 2017, Mr. Binder, an officer and director of the Company, exchanged $39,521 in principal of Binder Funding Notes for the Binder Convertible Note 7.  This amount included $12,500 of accrued but unpaid salary due by the Company to Mr. Binder.  On the same date, Newcan, an entity wholly owned by Mr. Koretsky, a director of the Company, exchanged $30,000 in principal of Newcan Funding Notes for the Newcan Convertible Note 6.  These notes bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum.  No payments are required until January 2, 2019, at which time all accrued interest becomes due and payable.  Commencing on April 1, 2019, the first of eight principal payments will become due; subsequent principal payments will become due on the first day of each July, October, January and April until paid in full.  These notes and accrued interest under these notes may be converted, in whole or in part, into one share of common stock for each $0.25 converted.

We evaluated subsequent events after the balance sheet date through the date the financial statements were issued. We did not identify any additional material events or transactions occurring during this subsequent event reporting period that required further recognition or disclosure in these financial statements.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

OVERVIEW AND OUTLOOK
 
We were incorporated on March 31, 2011 as Adelt Design, Inc. to manufacture and market carpet binding art. Production and marketing of carpet binding art never commenced.  On November 20, 2014, we adopted amended and restated articles of incorporation, thereby changing our name to CLS Holdings USA, Inc. Effective December 10, 2014, we effected a reverse stock split of our issued and outstanding common stock at a ratio of 1-for-0.625 (the “Reverse Split”), wherein 0.625 shares of our common stock were issued in exchange for each share of common stock issued and outstanding.

On April 29, 2015, the Company, CLS Labs and the Merger Sub consummated the merger, whereby the Merger Sub merged with and into CLS Labs, with CLS Labs remaining as the surviving entity. As a result of the merger, we acquired the business of CLS Labs and abandoned our previous business. As such, only the financial statements of CLS Labs are included in this annual report.

CLS Labs was originally incorporated in the state of Nevada on May 1, 2014 under the name RJF Labs, Inc. before changing its name to CLS Labs, Inc. on October 24, 2014. It was formed to commercialize a proprietary method of extracting cannabinoids from cannabis plants and converting the resulting cannabinoid extracts into concentrates such as oils, waxes, edibles and shatter. These concentrates may be ingested in a number of ways, including through vaporization via electronic cigarettes (“e-cigarettes”), and used for a variety of pharmaceutical and other purposes. Testing in conjunction with two Colorado growers of this extraction method and conversion process has revealed that it produces a cleaner, higher quality product and a significantly higher yield than the cannabinoid extraction processes currently existing in the marketplace.

On April 17, 2015, CLS Labs took its first step toward commercializing its proprietary methods and processes by entering into the Colorado Arrangement through its wholly owned subsidiary, CLS Labs Colorado, with certain Colorado entities, including PRH. CLS Labs had not otherwise commercialized its proprietary process prior to the merger and has not earned any revenues.

We intend to generate revenue through (i) the licensing of our patent pending proprietary methods and processes to others, as in the Colorado Arrangement, (ii) the processing of cannabis for others, and (iii) the purchase of cannabis and the processing and sale of cannabis-related products.  We plan to accomplish this through the creation of joint ventures, through licensing agreements, and through fee-for-service arrangements with growers and dispensaries of cannabis products. We believe that we can establish a position as one of the premier cannabinoid extraction and processing companies in the industry. Assuming we do so, we then intend to explore the creation of our own brand of concentrates for consumer use, which we would sell wholesale to cannabis dispensaries. We believe that we can create a “gold standard” national brand by standardizing the testing, compliance and labeling of our products in an industry currently comprised of small, local businesses with erratic and unreliable product quality, testing practices and labeling. We also plan to offer consulting services through a consulting subsidiary, CLS Consulting, which will generate revenue by providing consulting services to cannabis-related businesses, including growers, dispensaries and laboratories, and driving business to our processing facilities.

We had a net loss of $565,685 for the three months ended August 31, 2017, resulting in an accumulated deficit as of August 31, 2017 of $9,557,295. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended August 31, 2017 and August 31, 2016

Revenues

The Company had no revenues during the three months periods ended August 31, 2017 and August 31, 2016.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative expenses increased $38,458, or approximately 22%, to $213,203 during the three months ended August 31, 2017, compared to $174,745 for the three months ended August 31, 2016.  General and administrative expenses consisted primarily of general office expenses, travel costs, rent expense, compensation costs, bank charges and payroll expenses.  The increase was primarily due to costs associated with terminating a lease held by the Company's Colorado subsidiary. We expect general and administrative expenses to increase in future periods as we implement our business plan and commence operations.
 

 
Professional fees

Professional fees decreased $160,180, or approximately 52%, to $146,001 during the three months ended August 31, 2017 compared to $306,181 for the three months ended August 31, 2016.  This decrease was due primarily to the reduction of legal and investor relations fees for the three months ended August 31, 2017 compared to the prior period due to a decrease in SEC filings and capital raising activities during the three months ended August 31, 2017. We expect professional fees to increase in future periods as our business grows.
 
Interest expense
 
Interest expense for the three months ended August 31, 2017 was $74,866, a decrease of $183,204, or 71%, compared to $258,070 for the three months ended August 31, 2016.  Interest expense decreased primarily due to a decrease in amortization of the discount on convertible debt, which was $42,060 during the current period compared to $202,196 for the prior year. During the three months ended August 31, 2016, $163,481 of the amortization on discount on convertible debt was related to debt that was converted to equity at May 31, 2017; since this debt was no longer outstanding, there was no amortization of discount related to this debt during the three months ended August 31, 2017.
 
Change in fair value of derivative liability

We revalued the derivative liability related to our 8% Note at August 31, 2017 at $214,621.  This revaluation resulted in a loss of $105,950, a decrease in the amount of $229,871 compared to a gain of $123,921 during the three months ended August 31, 2016.

Gain on settlement of debt

During the three months ended August 31, 2017, we recognized a gain on the settlement of accounts payable in the amount of $3,480 because we repaid an account using our common stock.  There was no comparable transaction during the quarter ended August 31, 2016.

Loss on modification of debt

During the three months ended August 31, 2017, we recognized a loss on the modification of debt in the amount of $29,145.  This loss related to the amendment of the 8% Note.  There was no comparable transaction during the quarter ended August 31, 2016.

Net loss
 
For the reasons above, we had a net loss for the three months ended August 31, 2017 of $565,685, which is a decrease of $49,390, or approximately 8%, compared to a net loss of $615,075 during the three months ended August 31, 2016.

At August 31, 2017 and May 31, 2017, we had a working capital deficit of $1,401,275 and $1,746,758, respectively. This working capital deficit occurred primarily because we have not yet commenced earning revenues.  Due to the suspension of our plans to commence operations in Colorado, we cannot estimate when we will commence earning revenues.  During the three months ended August 31, 2017, we obtained loans from our officers, directors and entities affiliated with Frank Koretsky, one of our directors, to cover operating expenses.  This working capital deficit will likely increase until we begin earning revenues but should not be viewed as an indicator of our future performance once we commence earning revenues. We have operated at a loss since inception. 


Cash flows used in operating activities was $183,978 during the three months ended August 31, 2017 compared to $378,493 during the three months ended August 31, 2016.  This decrease is primarily due to the decrease in the amount of amortization of debt discount associated with our convertible notes in the amount of $42,060, which was partially offset by the increase in the change in fair value of the derivative liability associated with the 2016 Convertible Notes by $105,950.
 
Cash flows used in investing activities was $0 during the three months ended August 31, 2017 compared to $11,513 during the three months ended August 31, 2016.  The amounts used during the three months ended August 31, 2016 related to construction in progress at our Colorado processing facility, which has been put on hold.
 
Cash flows provided by financing activities provided $117,767 during the three months ended August 31, 2017 compared to $305,000 during the three months ended August 31, 2016.  The decrease in cash flows from financing activities during the three months ended August 31, 2017, was primarily due to lower borrowings from our officers, directors and entities affiliated with one of our directors during the three months ended August 31, 2017, because of the suspension of our planned Colorado operations.  

Old Main Notes

On March 18, 2016, we issued Old Main an 8% Convertible Promissory Note (the “8% Note”) in the principal amount of $200,000 for Old Main’s commitment to enter into an equity line transaction with us and prepare all of the related transaction documents. The 8% Note bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum. On October 6, 2016, we amended the 8% Note, among other documents (the “First Amendment”) to defer the commencement of amortization payments on the 8% Note so that they commenced at the earlier of February 3, 2017 or on the SEC Effective Date.  On such date, we must begin to redeem 1/6th of the face amount of the 8% Note and any accrued but unpaid interest on a monthly basis. Such amortization payment may be made, at our option, in cash or, subject to certain conditions, in our common stock pursuant to a conversion rate equal to the lower of (a) $1.07 (the “8% Note Fixed Conversion Price”) or (b) 75% of the lowest VWAP in the twenty (20) consecutive trading days ending on the trading day that is immediately prior to the applicable conversion date.  Subject to certain exclusions, if we sell or issue our common stock or certain common stock equivalents at an effective price per share that is lower than the 8% Note Fixed Conversion Price, the conversion price will be reduced to equal to such lower price.

On November 28, 2016, we entered into a Second Amendment to the 8% Note issued on March 18 (the “Second Amendment”) to amend the 8% Note, among other documents, as amended by the First Amendment, in certain respects.  Pursuant to the Second Amendment, among other things, the 8% Note was converted from an installment note to a “balloon” note, with all principal and interest on the 8% Note due on March 18, 2017; the Fixed Conversion Price associated with the 8% Note was changed to a variable conversion price equal to the lesser of the prior Fixed Conversion Price or 75% of the lowest VWAP in the fifteen trading days ending on the trading day immediately prior to the conversion date; our ability to repay the 8% Note with our common stock was deleted except pursuant to a voluntary conversion by Old Main; and Old Main was prohibited from selling, per trading day, an amount of our common stock in excess of the greater of $5,000 or 25% of the average number of shares of common stock sold per day for the five trading days preceding the day of sale multiplied by the average daily VWAP during the immediately preceding 5-trading day period.

On March 27, 2017, we entered into the third amendment to the 8% Note, which, among other things, increased the outstanding amount due under the 8% Note as of March 18, 2017 by 5%.  In exchange for doing so, Old Main agreed to extend the maturity of the 8% Note until July 1, 2017 and to suspend conversions under the 8% Note until July 1, 2017. 
 
On July 6, 2017, we entered into the fourth amendment to the 8% Note (the “Fourth Amendment”) to further amend the terms of the 8% Note, which is the only note that remains outstanding.  Pursuant to the Fourth Amendment, the maturity date of the 8% Note was extended to July 15, 2017 and the outstanding balance of the 8% Note as of June 30, 2017 was increased by multiplying it by 1.075.  The Fourth Amendment was effective on June 30, 2017.
 
On August 23, 2017, we entered into the fifth amendment to the 8% Note (the “Fifth Amendment”) to further amend the terms of the 8% Note.  Pursuant to the Fifth Amendment, the maturity date of the 8% Note was extended to September 15, 2017 and the outstanding balance remained unchanged.  The Fifth Amendment was effective on July 15, 2017.

Subsequent to August 31, 2017, we entered into an agreement to exchange the balance due under the 8% Note of approximately $325,000 for up to 4,500,000 shares of common stock.  See note 13.

On April 18, 2016, we also entered into an equity line agreement with Old Main whereby we may issue and sell to Old Main, at our option from time to time, up to $4,000,000 of our common stock at a purchase price equal to 80% of the lowest VWAP of the common stock during a five day “Valuation Period.”

On October 6, 2016, we entered into an amendment to the equity line Agreement to amend the new commitment period, which is 24 months from the date of this amendment.  Second, the equity line agreement was amended to prohibit us from delivering a subsequent put notice from the beginning of any “Valuation Period” until the fourth trading day immediately following the closing associated with the prior put notice.  Third, the beneficial ownership limitation was amended to increase the beneficial ownership limitation to 9.99% and to remove the ability of Old Main to increase or decrease the beneficial ownership limitation.
 
Koretsky and Affiliate Notes

Between August 11, 2015 and May 31, 2017, we borrowed an aggregate of $1,657,000 from Frank Koretsky, a director of the Company, and $150,000 from CLS CO 2016, LLC and $465,000 from Newcan Investment Partners, LLC, two entities that are affiliated with Mr. Koretsky.  These loans were unsecured, accrued interest between 6% and 15% per year, were due either on demand or within three years after the date of the applicable note, and, in some cases, were convertible into shares of our common stock and warrants at rates between $.25 and 1.07 per share.  Effective on May 31, 2017, we entered into the Omnibus Loan Amendment Agreement, whereby the portion of these loans that was advanced prior to December 31, 2017 was converted into our common stock, together with accrued interest on these loans.  As a result of these conversions, Mr. Koretsky, CLS CO 2016 and Newcan converted an aggregate of $1,485,000, $150,000, and $460,000 in principal, and $130,069, 49,247 and $7,747 in accrued interest, into an aggregate of 6,460,276, 636,988 and 1,870,988 shares of common stock at $.25 per share.  Pursuant to the Omnibus Loan Amendment Agreement, the conversion rate on all of the loans made by Mr. Koretsky, CO CLS 2016, and Newcan was reduced, if applicable, to $.25 per share and Mr. Koretsky and his affiliates gave up the right to receive warrants upon conversion.  Thus, each of Mr. Koretsky, CLS CO 2016 and Newcan received 4,560,849, 488,159 and 1,433,841 shares of common stock in excess of what they would have received had they converted their loans into common stock prior to the effective date of the Omnibus Loan Amendment Agreement.

Effective March 31, 2017, $120,000 of the Koretsky Funding Notes was exchanged for Newcan Convertible Note 1.  This note is unsecured and bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum. No payments are required until April 1, 2018, at which time all accrued interest becomes due and payable. Principal will be payable in eight equal quarterly installments, together with accrued interest, beginning on July 1, 2018. At Newcan’s election, at any time prior to payment or prepayment of the loans in full, all principal and accrued interest under the loans may be converted, in whole or in part, into our common stock at the rate of one share for each $0.25 converted.
 
After excluding the loans from Mr. Koretsky, CLS CO 2016 and Newcan that were converted into our common stock effective as of May 31, 2017, there was a balance of $120,000 in loans that remained outstanding as of December 31, 2016.  This amount consisted of the $120,000 principal balance of the Koretsky Funding Loans (which were exchanged for Newcan Convertible Note 1 on March 31, 2017).  Prior to May 31, 2017, Newcan advanced an additional $621,658 of unsecured book entry loans.  During the three months ended August 31, 2017, $621,658 was transferred out of the Newcan Funding Notes and used to fund Newcan Convertible Note 4.  In addition, during the three months ended August 31, 2017, Newcan loaned the Company an additional $70,000 under the Newcan Funding Notes; this amount was transferred out of the Newcan Funding Notes and used to fund Newcan Convertible Note 5. These loans bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum and are convertible into our common stock at the rate of one share for each $0.25 converted.  No payments are required until October 1, 2018, at which time all accrued interest becomes due and payable. Principal will be payable in eight equal quarterly installments, together with accrued interest, beginning on January 2, 2019. At Newcan’s election, at any time prior to payment or prepayment of the Newcan Convertible Note 4 or 5 in full, all principal and accrued interest under the Newcan Convertible Note 4 or 5 may be converted, in whole or in part, into our common stock at the rate of one share for each $0.25 converted.

On October 9, 2017, Newcan, an entity wholly owned by Mr. Koretsky, a director of the Company, exchanged $29,999.50 in principal of Newcan Funding Notes (advanced in September 2017) for Newcan Convertible Note 6.  This note bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum.  No payments are required until January 2, 2019, at which time all accrued interest becomes due and payable.  Commencing on April 1, 2019, the first of eight principal payments will become due; subsequent principal payments will become due on the first day of each July, October, January and April until paid in full.  This note and accrued interest thereunder may be converted, in whole or in part, into one share of common stock for each $0.25 converted.
Binder Notes

Between June 1, 2015 and May 31, 2017, we borrowed an aggregate of $251,800 from Jeffrey Binder, a director and officer of the Company.  These loans were unsecured, accrued interest between 6% and 10% per year, were due either on demand or within three years after the date of the applicable note, and, in some cases, were convertible into shares of our common stock and warrants at rates between $.25 and 1.07 per share.  Effective on May 31, 2017, we entered into the Omnibus Loan Amendment Agreement, whereby the portion of these loans that was advanced prior to May 31, 2017 was converted into our common stock, together with accrued interest on these loans.  As a result of these conversions, Mr. Binder converted an aggregate of $442,750 in principal and $19,427 in accrued interest, into an aggregate of 1,848,708 shares of common stock at $.25 per share.  Pursuant to the Omnibus Loan Amendment Agreement, the conversion rate on all of the loans made by Mr. Binder was reduced, if applicable, to $.25 per share and Mr. Binder gave up the right to receive warrants upon conversion.  Thus, Mr. Binder received 1,127,061 shares of common stock in excess of what he would have received had he converted his loans into common stock prior to the effective date of the Omnibus Loan Amendment Agreement.

Effective March 31, 2017, $47,000 of the Binder Funding Notes and $25,000 of accrued salary due to Mr. Binder were exchanged for Binder Convertible Note 4.  This note is unsecured and bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum. No payments are required until April 1, 2018, at which time all accrued interest becomes due and payable. Principal will be payable in eight equal quarterly installments, together with accrued interest, beginning on July 1, 2018. At Mr. Binder’s election, at any time prior to payment or prepayment of the loans in full, all principal and accrued interest under the loans may be converted, in whole or in part, into our common stock at the rate of one share for each $0.25 converted.
 
All of Mr. Binder’s loans that were outstanding as of December 31, 2016 were converted to common stock effective May 31, 2017, including all of his accrued deferred salary as of December 31, 2016.  As of May 31, 2017, there was a balance of $149,550 in loans from Mr. Binder that remained outstanding.  This amount consisted of the $72,000 principal balance of Binder Convertible Note 4, which related to advances made and salary accrued after January 1, 2017, and an additional $77,550 of unsecured, book entry loans.  During the three months ended August 31, 2017, Mr. Binder advanced a total of $47,767 to the Company under the Binder Funding Notes. Also during the three months ended August 31, 2017, principal in the amount of $77,550, accrued salary due to Mr. Binder in the amount of $37,500, and accrued interest in the amount of $2,246 were transferred from the Binder Funding Notes to fund Binder Convertible Note 5, and principal in the amount of $47,767, accrued salary due to Mr. Binder in the amount of $25,000, and accrued interest in the amount of $1,384 were transferred from the Binder Funding Notes to fund Binder Convertible Note 6.  The Binder Convertible Notes 5 and 6 are unsecured and bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum. No payments are required until October 1, 2018, at which time all accrued interest becomes due and payable. Principal will be payable in eight equal quarterly installments, together with accrued interest, beginning on January 2, 2019. At Mr. Binder’s election, at any time prior to payment or prepayment of the Binder Convertible Note 5 or 6 in full, all principal and accrued interest under the Binder Convertible Note 5 or 6 may be converted, in whole or in part, into our common stock at the rate of one share for each $0.25 converted.

On October 9, 2017, Mr. Binder, an officer and director of the Company, exchanged $39,520.56 in principal of Binder Funding Notes (advanced in September and October 2017) for Binder Convertible Note 7.  This amount included $12,500 of accrued but unpaid salary due by the Company to Mr. Binder.  This note bears interest at the rate of 10% per annum.  No payments are required until January 2, 2019, at which time all accrued interest becomes due and payable.  Commencing on April 1, 2019, the first of eight principal payments will become due; subsequent principal payments will become due on the first day of each July, October, January and April until paid in full.  This note and accrued interest thereunder may be converted, in whole or in part, into one share of common stock for each $0.25 converted.

Omnibus Loan Amendment Agreement
 
On May 31, 2017, we entered into an Omnibus Loan Amendment Agreement (the “Omnibus Loan Amendment”) with Jeffrey I. Binder, Frank Koretsky, Newcan Investment Partners LLC and CLS CO 2016, LLC (collectively, the “Insiders”).  Pursuant to the Omnibus Loan Amendment, we agreed with the Insiders to amend certain terms of loans the Insiders made to us for working capital purposes, which loans were initially demand loans, and, except for certain loans made in 2017, were later memorialized as convertible loans (the “Insider Loans”), in exchange for the agreement of the Insiders to convert all Insider Loans where funds were advanced prior to January 1, 2017, which total $2,537,750, plus $166,490 of accrued interest thereon, into an aggregate of 10,816,960 shares of our common stock, and forego the issuance of warrants to purchase our common stock upon conversion.  This resulted in the issuance of an additional 7,609,910 shares compared to the original number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Insider Loans prior to the Omnibus Loan Agreement. We valued the shares at $0.125, which was the market price of our stock at the conversion date, and charged the amount of $951,239 to loss on modification of debt during the twelve months ended May 31, 2017.
We entered into the Omnibus Loan Amendment in order to ease the debt burden on us and prevent us from defaulting on the Insider Loans. Pursuant to the Omnibus Loan Amendment, the following amendments were made to the Insider Loans: (a) we reduced the conversion price on the Insider Loans from between $0.75 and $1.07 per share of common stock to $0.25 per share of common stock, in those cases where the conversion price was greater than $0.25, which reduced conversion price exceeds the closing price of the common stock during the last three months; (b) we deleted the requirement to issue warrants to purchase our common stock upon conversion of the Insider Loans; (c) we amended one Insider Loan to permit conversion of only the portion of the Insider Loan related to services that were provided to us prior to January 1, 2017; and (d) we amended the terms of the Insider Loans where funds were advanced on or after January 1, 2017, which Insider Loans were not converted into our common stock, to provide for, where not already the case, a 10% interest rate per annum, a $0.25 conversion price per share of common stock, and the deletion of the requirement that we issue warrants to purchase our common stock upon conversion of such Insider Loans.

Over the next twelve months we will require significant additional capital to cover our projected cash flow deficits due to payments on the loans from Jeffrey Binder and Newcan Investment Partners, LLC, the implementation of our business plan, including the acquisition of complementary operating companies, and the development of alternative revenue sources. 
 
We currently have one employee, Jeffrey Binder, who serves as our Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer.   In an effort to assist us conserve cash, Mr. Binder converted all accrued salary due to him through August 31, into convertible promissory notes.  Mr. Binder has deferred all of his salary to date for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2017 and the three months ended August 31, 2017.  Mr. Bonsett, our former Chief Operating Officer, left the Company following the expiration of his employment agreement effective October 1, 2017.

We do not currently have the capital necessary to meet our liquidity needs, fund our capital requirements or implement our business plan. We intend to fund our cash flow and capital requirements during the next year from the proceeds of the equity line, the sale of our debt and equity securities, by obtaining additional loans and with cash generated from the operations of companies we may acquire.  There can be no assurance that we will be able to meet our needs, however, as we have not yet received any commitments for the purchase of our equity securities or for additional loans and although we have entered into a non-binding letter of intent to acquire Oasis Cannabis, as described below, we have not entered into any definitive agreements to acquire any companies.  Because we do not know when we will re-visit commencing operations in Colorado, there can be no assurance that PRH will ever generate sufficient cash to repay the $500,000 loan from CLS Labs Colorado or to meet PRH’s obligations under the Licensing Agreement or Equipment Lease. Further, due to the delays we encountered with the construction of our Colorado processing facility, we have placed our proposed Colorado operations on hold and will pursue revenue producing opportunities in other states.  We anticipate that we may incur operating losses during the next twelve months. 

Pure Harvest and Oasis Cannabis Transaction
 
Earlier this year, we entered into a non-binding letter of intent with Pure Harvest Cannabis Producers, Inc., or Pure Harvest, a development stage cannabis company, which had planned to become a licensed vertically integrated cannabis business involved in all aspects of the cannabis cycle, including plant science, cultivation, production, medical and recreational dispensaries and delivery.  Pure Harvest intended to accomplish this through an active acquisition strategy combined with greenfield development. 
 
Following this announcement, in August 2017, we entered into a non-binding letter of intent with Alternative Solutions, LLC (“Oasis Cannabis”), a cannabis company that operates a revenue-producing dispensary in Las Vegas, Nevada and plans to become a vertically integrated cannabis operator in Nevada.  As a result, we will focus on directly acquiring Oasis Cannabis instead of Pure Harvest although the CEO of Pure Harvest, David Lamadrid, is anticipated to join us as our new President and CFO if and when the Oasis Cannabis transaction closes.  Upon closing, we will likely relocate to Las Vegas, Nevada and change our name to “Pure Harvest Cannabis Producers, Inc.”  Jeffrey Binder is expected to remain as our CEO and Chairman of the board of directors of the combined company.  Due diligence is almost completed at this time and we are both finalizing the terms of the transaction as well as preparing the necessary financial statements.  We anticipate that we will need to raise significant additional capital in order to close the Oasis Cannabis transaction.  We have not yet executed any definitive agreements with Oasis Cannabis so there can be no assurance that the transaction will close or what the ultimate terms of the transaction will be. 
Going concern
 
Our financial statements were prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred continuous losses from operations since inception, have an accumulated deficit of $9,557,295 and had a working capital deficit of $1,401,275 at August 31, 2017. In addition, we do not currently have the cash resources to meet our operating commitments during the next twelve months. Our ability to continue as a going concern must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, and complications frequently encountered by developmental stage companies.

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to generate sufficient cash from operations to meet our cash needs, to borrow capital and to sell equity to support our plans to acquire operating businesses, open processing facilities and finance ongoing operations. There can be no assurance, however, that we will be successful in our efforts to raise additional debt or equity capital and/or that cash generated by our future operations will be adequate to meet our needs. These factors, among others, indicate that we may be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Critical Accounting Estimates

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

·
Estimates and assumptions used in the valuation of derivative liabilities: Management utilizes a lattice model to estimate the fair value of derivative liabilities. The model includes subjective assumptions that can materially affect the fair value estimates.
 
Recently Issued Accounting Standards 
 
Accounting standards promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) are subject to change. Changes in such standards may have an impact on our future financial statements. The following are a summary of recent accounting developments.

In August 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2016-15,  Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230).  The update addresses eight specific cash flow issues and is intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. This update will be effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within the reporting period. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the potential impact of the update on our financial statements.
 
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04,  Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment , which simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In computing the implied fair value of goodwill under Step 2, current U.S. GAAP requires the performance of procedures to determine the fair value at the impairment testing date of assets and liabilities (including unrecognized assets and liabilities) following the procedure that would be required in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Instead, the amendments under this ASU require the goodwill impairment test to be performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The ASU becomes effective for us on January 1, 2020. The amendments in this ASU will be applied on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed.
 

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09,  Stock Compensation - Scope of Modification Accounting , which provides guidance on which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. The ASU requires that an entity account for the effects of a modification unless the fair value (or calculated value or intrinsic value, if used), vesting conditions and classification (as equity or liability) of the modified award are all the same as for the original award immediately before the modification. The ASU becomes effective for us on January 1, 2018, and will be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period. We are currently assessing the impact that this standard will have on any awards that are modified once this standard is adopted.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk.

This item is not applicable as we are currently considered a smaller reporting company.
 
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

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

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Jeffrey Binder, our Chief Executive Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on the evaluation, Mr. Binder concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective in timely alerting him to material information relating to us that is required to be included in our periodic SEC filings and ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief financial officer, or person performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, for the following reasons:
 
·
We do not have an independent board of directors or audit committee or adequate segregation of duties; and
 
·
We do not have an independent body to oversee our internal controls over financial reporting and lack segregation of duties due to our limited resources.
 
We plan to rectify these weaknesses by implementing an independent board of directors and hiring additional accounting personnel once we have additional resources to do so.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

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