NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 AND 2023 

 

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

CannaPharmaRX Inc. (“CPRX” or the “Company”) was originally incorporated in the state of Colorado in August 1998 as Network Acquisitions, Inc. The Company focuses its business efforts on evaluation, negotiation, acquisition, and development of cannabis cultivation projects in Canada.

 

On January 6, 2022, the Company entered into a 20-year operating lease with Formosa Mountain Ltd. for the use of a leased facility located in Cremona, Alberta, Canada. The facility was built in 2015 and was previously operating as a cannabis production facility until it was decommissioned, and the license cancelled by the previous owner making the facility ready for sale in 2020.

 

CPRX recommissioned the 55,000 square foot facility which contains 11 growing rooms and 10 drying and packing rooms into a new indoor cannabis farm during 2022. The Company received an operating license from Health Canada on December 9, 2022, and a cannabis license from the Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”) on December 22, 2022.

 

Preliminary discussions with export partners would set conditional per gram pricing for optimal product at approximately $3.30 Canadian dollars (“CAD”) per gram. This price would be based on achieving satisfactory test results associated to tetrahydrocannabinol (“THC”) and cannabidiol (“CBD”) content of the dried flower.

 

Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying condensed interim consolidated financial statements (the “financial statements”) have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification, the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

 

All figures are in United States (“US”) dollars (“USD”) unless indicated otherwise.

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. The most significant estimates relate to the purchase price allocation of acquired businesses, the impairment of long-lived assets, the valuation of financial instruments, the provision of income taxes and contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known or expected trends, and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable given the quality of information available as at the date of these financial statements. The results of these assumptions provide the basis for making estimates about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

Cash

 

The Company considers all its cash in bank accounts and its highly liquid temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash and cash equivalents. On September 30, 2024, the Company had cash of $6,999 (December 31, 2023 - $650).

 

Comprehensive income or loss

 

ASC 220 Comprehensive Income establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. As at September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company’s financial statements include the translation of foreign operations to the presentation currency giving rise to foreign currency translation differences. The statement of comprehensive income includes the effects of translation of the Company’s foreign operations.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 AND 2023

 

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Inventory

 

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value, with cost determined using the weighted average cost method. Net realizable value is calculated as the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less any estimated costs to complete and sell the goods. Costs are capitalized to inventory, until substantially ready for sale. Costs include direct and indirect labor, raw materials, consumables, packaging supplies, utilities, facility costs, quality and testing costs, production related depreciation, and other overhead costs.If costs of inventory exceed its net realizable value, the difference is recorded as a net realizable value adjustment and included within cost of goods sold.

 

Leases

 

At the inception of a lease, the Company determines if the lease will be classified as an operating lease or a finance lease. If the lease transfers ownership by the end of the term, contains a purchase option that is reasonably certain to be exercised, is for a term representing the major part of the underlying asset’s useful life, or if the present value of lease payments represents substantially all of the fair value of the underlying asset, then the lease is classified as a finance lease. Otherwise, the lease is classified as an operating lease. This classification of operating or finance lease determines the presentation of corresponding expenses over the lifetime of the lease.

 

Finance lease assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and finance lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. These assets and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of future payments over the lease term at commencement date. A collateralized incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date, including lease term, is used in determining the present value of future payments. This incremental borrowing rate is updated in the event of a lease modification such as a renewal or option that adds time and payments to a lease. A lease term generally does not include an option to extend or terminate the lease, unless there is a reasonable certainty that the option will be exercised. Fixed payments may contain predetermined fixed rent escalations. The Company recognizes the expense related to finance leases using the effective interest rate method from the commencement date to the end of the lease term. Certain lease contracts contain non-lease components such as maintenance, utilities, fuel and other services. The Company recognizes both the lease and non-lease component for each right-of-use asset.

 

Short-term leases (that have an initial term less than 12 months or that are cancellable by the lessor and lessee without significant penalties) are expensed as they are incurred.

 

Derivative financial instruments

 

Terms of convertible and other promissory notes are reviewed to determine whether they contain embedded derivative instruments that are required to be accounted for separately from the host contract and recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. The fair value of derivative instruments is required to be revalued at each reporting date, with corresponding changes in fair value recorded in the current period operating results. Derivative liabilities arose due to the issuance of variably priced convertible notes. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company had derivative liabilities of $651,514 (December 31, 2023 - $1,264,388).

 

The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risk.

 

Revenue Recognition 

 

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of products in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue Recognition” following the five steps procedure: 

 

Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with customers

 

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract - The performance obligation is the delivery of products in accordance with the terms of the contract.

 

Step 3: Determine the transaction price - The transaction price is the amount agreed upon for the sale of goods and represents the amount invoiced to the customer.

 

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations - Transaction price is allocated to performance obligations on the same basis as invoice itemization.

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 AND 2023 

 

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Step 5: Recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation - The Company has shipped out the product and, therefore, satisfied the performance obligation. The risk of loss is passed to the customers at the point of shipment.

 

Foreign currency translation

 

The functional currency and the reporting currency of the Company’s US operations is USD. The functional currency of the Company’s Canadian operations is CAD. Management adopted ASC 830 Foreign Currency Matters for transactions that occur in foreign currencies. Monetary assets denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Average monthly rates are used to translate revenues and expenses.

 

Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income for the respective periods.

 

Assets and liabilities of the Company’s operations are translated into the reporting currency, USD, at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet dates. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates in effect during the reporting periods. Equity transactions are recorded at the historical rate when the transaction occurred. The resulting translation adjustment is reflected as accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of stockholders' deficit in the statements of changes in stockholders' deficit.

 

These translation adjustments are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of the Company's stockholders' deficit.

 

Sales tax

 

The Canadian Goods and Services Tax (“GST”) is a 5% tax applied to taxable goods and services. GST is a consumption tax paid by the consumer at the point of sale. The vendor or seller collects the tax proceeds from consumers by adding the GST rate to the cost of goods and services; they then remit the total collected tax, less input tax credits for GST paid to vendors, to the government periodically.

 

The GST is in effect Canada-wide, although is sometimes combined with a Provincial Sales Tax and referred to as a Harmonized Sales Tax. The GST is collected by the Canada Revenue Agency, which remits the appropriate amounts to the participating provinces.

 

Stock-based compensation

 

The Company has adopted ASC Topic 718 Compensation—Stock Compensation, which establishes a fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation plans. In accordance with guidance now incorporated in ASC Topic 718, the fair value of stock options and warrants issued to employees and non-employees is measured on the grant date based on the fair value. The fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The resulting amount is charged to expense on a straight-line basis over the period in which the Company expects to receive the benefit, which is generally the vesting period. The fair value of share purchase warrants issued as a form of compensation or payment was determined at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Black-Scholes option pricing model requires management to make various estimates and assumptions, including expected term, expected volatility, risk-free rate, and dividend yield. The Company had no stock options outstanding as at September 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

 

Long-lived assets

 

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances have indicated that an asset may not be recoverable. The long-lived asset is grouped with other assets at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other groups of assets and liabilities. If the sum of the projected undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the assets, the assets are written down to the estimated fair value.

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 AND 2023 

 

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Fair values of assets and liabilities

 

The Company groups its financial assets and financial liabilities generally measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded, and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value.

 

Level 1:

Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 1 assets and liabilities generally include debt and equity securities that are traded in an active exchange market. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.

 

 

Level 2:

Valuation is based on observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. For example, Level 2 assets and liabilities may include debt securities with quoted prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments.

 

 

Level 3:

Valuation is based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. This category generally includes certain private equity investments and long-term derivative contracts.

 

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

 

Financial instruments

 

The estimated fair value for financial instruments was determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information. These estimates involve uncertainties and could not be determined with exact precision. The fair value of the Company’s financial instruments, which include cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and related party loans, each approximate their carrying value due either to their short length to maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method, 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 determined based on the difference between the financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.

 

Earnings (loss) per share

 

Earnings (loss) per share is presented in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”), Earnings per Share (Topic 260), which requires the presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the income statements.

 

Basic EPS excludes any dilutive effects of options, warrants, and convertible securities but does include the restricted shares of common stock issued. Basic EPS calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year.

 

Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted to common stock. Diluted EPS calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding.

 

Recently issued accounting pronouncements

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 AND 2023 

 

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN AND LIQUIDITY

 

As at September 30, 2024, the Company had cash of $6,999 (December 31, 2023 - $650), a working capital deficiency totaling $21,005,723 (December 31, 2023 - $16,968,059), and an accumulated deficit of $97,443,301 (December 31, 2023 - $91,278,353).

 

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. Based on current financial projections, the Company does not have sufficient existing cash resources to fund its current limited operations. Accordingly, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

It is the Company’s intention to incur debt and/or raise additional funding through equity financing to fund ongoing operating expenses. There is no assurance that these events will be satisfactorily completed or at terms acceptable to the Company. Any issuance of equity securities, if accomplished, could cause substantial dilution to existing stockholders. Any failure by the Company to successfully implement these plans would have a material adverse effect on its business, including the possible inability to continue operations.

NOTE 12 - STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT

 

Preferred stock

 

The Company is authorized to issue up to 10,000,000 shares of one or more series of preferred stock at a par value of $1.00 per share. The Board of Directors may, without stockholder approval, determine the dividend rates, redemption prices, preferences on liquidation or dissolution, conversion rights, voting rights, and any other preferences.

 

Series A preferred stock

 

In April 2018, the Company issued 60,000 shares of its series A convertible preferred stock (“Series A Stock”) for $1.00 per share to certain investors who then became members of management and the Board of Directors. Each share of Series A Stock is non-redeemable, entitles the holder to 1,250 votes on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders; is convertible into 1,250 shares of common stock and each vote is on an as-converted basis. In addition, the holders of outstanding Series A Stock will only be entitled to receive dividends upon declaration by the Board of Directors of a dividend payable on the Company’s common stock, whereupon the holders of the Series A Stock will receive a dividend on the number of shares of common stock into which each share of Series A Stock is convertible.

 

The beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) attributed to the purchase of Series A Stock was deemed to have no value on the date of purchase because there was no public trading market for the Series A Stock, and none is expected to develop in the future. Therefore, the BCF related to the Series A Stock was considered to have no value on the date of issuance.

 

On March 5, 2024, 10,000 shares of Series A Stock were converted into common stock. There were no conversions during the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

As at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, 74,416 and 84,416 shares, respectively, of Series A Stock were issued and outstanding.

 

Series B preferred stock

 

In August 2019, the Company closed an offering of up to $3 million of units at a price of $1.00 per unit. Each unit consisted of one share of series B convertible preferred stock (“Series B Stock”) and one common stock purchase warrant (“Common Warrant”) with no expiry date. Each Series B Stock is convertible into one share of the Company’s common stock at the election of the holder.

 

Each Common Warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of common stock at the election of the holder at an exercise price of $2.00 per share, which offering is to be offered only to “accredited investors,” as that term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D of the Securities and Exchange Commission regulations. As at December 31, 2020, the Company had accepted $475,000 in subscriptions in this offering.

 

On March 22, 2023, 20,000 Series B Stock was converted into common stock at $0.0001 per common share. On March 28, 2024, the Company cancelled 2,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock originally issued during the year ended December 31, 2022 as a deposit on the acquisition of LTB.

 

As at September 30, 2024, 455,000 (December 31, 2023 - 2,455,000) shares of Series B Stock and Common Warrants were issued and outstanding.

 

Series C preferred stock

 

In March 2023, the Company issued 100,000 shares of its Series C preferred stock (“Series C Stock”) in connection with the investment in LTB (Note 6). The shares of Series C Stock are each convertible into 1,250 shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

Each share of Series C Stock entitles the holder to 1,250 votes on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders; is convertible into 1,250 shares of common stock and each vote is on an as-converted basis. In addition, the holders of outstanding Series C Stock will only be entitled to receive dividends upon declaration by the Board of Directors of a dividend payable on the Company’s common stock, whereupon the holders of the Series C Stock will receive a dividend on the number of shares of common stock into which each share of Series C Stock is convertible.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 AND 2023 

 

In March 2024, the Company noted a historical accounting treatment error whereby the shares had been recorded at the stated value rather than the par value. As a result, the Company adjusted the value of the Series C stock to their par value of $1 per share, for a total par value of $100,000, with the remaining $650,000 of stated value being reclassified to additional paid in value.

 

As at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, 100,000 shares of Series C Stock were issued and outstanding.

 

Common stock

 

The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000,000 shares of common stock at a par value $0.0001 per share. As at September 30, 2024, 662,501,405 (December 31, 2023 - 440,752,302) shares of common stock were issued and outstanding.

 

On March 5, 2024, 10,000 shares of Series A Stock were converted into 12,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

On March 8, 2024, the Company issued 4,895,849 common shares from the cashless exercise of 5,000,000 warrants.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company issued 204,353,254 from the conversion of convertible notes.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, 27,224,962 stock purchase warrants, each entitling the holder to purchase one common stock of the Company at $0.02 per share, with an expiration date of November 22, 2028, were issued in respect of the LTB transaction (Note 3) and 17,222,200 stock purchase warrants, each entitling the holder to purchase one common stock of the Company at $0.01 per share, with an expiration date of February 15, 2028.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company corrected an error in the accounting treatment associated with the stock purchase warrants that were issued during the year ended December 31, 2019 as origination fees associated with a promissory note and loan granted during that year. The value of the stock purchase warrants should have been expensed upon issuance. The correction of the error resulted in a $271,470 increase to additional paid-in capital and an equivalent decrease to opening accumulated deficit for the year ended December 31, 2023.

NOTE 13 - INCOME TAX

 

As at December 31, 2023, the Company had approximately $93,000,000 of federal net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLS”) in the United States. State net operating loss carryforwards begin to expire in 2034. Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, the availability of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards could be subject to annual limitations against taxable income in future periods which could substantially limit the eventual utilization of such carryforwards. The Company has not analyzed the historical or potential impact of its equity financings on beneficial ownership and therefore no determination has been made whether the net operating loss carryforward is subject to any IRC Section 382 limitation. To the extent there is a limitation, there could be a substantial reduction in the deferred tax asset with an offsetting reduction in the valuation allowance. As at December 31, 2023, the Company had approximately $900,000 of Canadian non-capital losses which begin to expire in 2037. As at September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company has no unrecognized income tax benefits.

 

The tax years from 2014 and forward remain open to examination by federal and state authorities due to net operating loss and credit carryforwards. The Company is currently not under examination by the Internal Revenue Service or any other taxing authorities. Since the company has never been profitable, the Company has established a full valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset associated with the NOLS.

ITEM 1. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations for the interim period as at and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 should be read together with the Company’s financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the audited financial statements and related footnotes included in our Transition Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

In connection with, and because we desire to take advantage of, the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we caution readers regarding certain forward-looking statements in the following discussion and elsewhere in this Report and in any other statement made by, or on our behalf, whether or not in future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements are statements not based on historical information and which relate to future operations, strategies, financial results or other developments. Forward looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control and many of which, with respect to future business decisions, are subject to change. These uncertainties and contingencies can affect actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by, or on our behalf. We disclaim any obligation to update forward-looking statements.

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes a number of “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements concerning anticipated financial results and developments of our operations in future periods that reflect management's current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are projections in respect of future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These 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. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including the risks set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 25, 2024 any of which may cause our company’s or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements. These risks and factors include, by way of example and without limitation:

 

 

our ability to successfully commercialize our products and services on a large enough scale to generate profitable operations;

 

our ability to maintain and develop relationships with customers and suppliers;

 

our ability to successfully integrate acquired businesses or new brands;

 

the impact of competitive products and pricing;

 

supply constraints or difficulties;

 

the retention and availability of key personnel;

 

general economic and business conditions;

 

substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern;

 

our need to raise additional funds in the future;

 

our ability to successfully recruit and retain qualified personnel in order to continue our operations;

 

our ability to successfully implement our business plan;

 

our ability to successfully acquire, develop or commercialize new products and equipment;

 

intellectual-property claims brought by third parties; and

 

the impact of any industry regulation.

 

This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect the Company’s forward-looking statements. Although the Company has attempted to identify important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in forward-looking statements, there may be other factors that cause results not to be as anticipated, estimated or intended. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, believed, estimated or expected. The Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Except as required by law, the Company disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events. The Company qualifies all the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q by the foregoing cautionary statements.

Table of Contents

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 the Company had $312,164 (2023 - $nil) and $338,003 (2023 - $nil), respectively, of revenues from operations. Loss from operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $497,946 (2023 - $667,497) and $2,085,159 (2023 - $2,280,713), respectively. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, or performance. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

 

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 SEC. 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 except as required by law. 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.

 

As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and unless otherwise indicated, the terms “CannaPharmaRX”, CANNAPHARMARX”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to CannaPharmaRX, Inc. and our wholly owned subsidiaries. Unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars (“USD”).

 

OVERVIEW AND HISTORY

 

CannaPharmaRX Inc. (“CPRX” or the “Company”) was originally incorporated in the state of Colorado in August 1998 as Network Acquisitions, Inc. and changed its name to Cavion Technologies, Inc. (“Cavion”) in February 1999. The Company focuses its business efforts on evaluation, negotiation, acquisition, and development cannabis cultivation projects in Canada.

 

On January 6, 2022, the Company entered into a 20-year operating lease with Formosa Mountain Ltd. to lease a 55,000 square foot cannabis production facility in Cremona, Alberta, Canada. CPRX recommissioned the facility into a new indoor cannabis farm with 11 growing rooms and 10 drying and packing rooms during 2022.

 

The Company received an operating license from Health Canada on December 9, 2022, and a cannabis license from the Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”) on December 22, 2022.

 

Under the new license the Company commenced cannabis production during the year ended December 31, 2023.

 

PLAN OF OPERATION

 

The Company received an operating license from Health Canada on December 9, 2022, and a cannabis license from the Canada Revenue Agency (“CRA”) on December 22, 2022.

 

We anticipate developing a consistent cadence of growing, harvesting, cultivating, and delivering world class products on a regular basis and expects to begin to see a strong and accelerated revenue increase during the 2024 fiscal year (“FY2024”). Our production facility is operating at maximum capacity during FY2024, achieving regular plantings with staggered production so that we are constantly harvesting and delivering high-quality products to multiple sources. Our focus continues to be on international sales with high gross margin products, resulting in greater profitability using our state-of-the-art production facility to grow on demand against purchase contracts using smart inventory management which will contribute to higher turnover and regular deliveries. We will continue to collaborate with international partners on multiple continents and develop proprietary online, data-driven technology.

 

Our FY2024 growth goals were achieved and included delivering the first of several harvests during the first, second quarter. Additional goals for the remainder of FY2024 include continuing to increase our strategic partner network; receiving our European Union license for Good Manufacturing Practices (“GMP”) to allow us to expand distribution; expanding our customer network; becoming a world leader in unique genetic strains with a current catalogue of over 500 desirable strains developed and owned by CPRX; and continuing to improve our balance sheet.

In support of these goals:

 

On February 16, 2024, the Company announced that we finalized a strategic supply agreement with Cantek Holdings, an Israeli corporation, whereby the Company will supply 1,000kgs of product annually.

On February 23, 2024, the Company announced that we successfully obtained our Israel Medical Cannabis (“IMC”) Good Agricultural Practices (“GAP”) and Good Agricultural and Collection Practices (“GACP”) certifications. The IMC-GAP and IMC-GACP certifications are the standard for cannabis certification in Israel and are required for CPRX to sell cannabis in Israel, a world leader in the medical cannabis industry.

On March 5, 2024, the Company announced that we finalized a supply agreement with ICAN Green S.A. de C.V. (“ICAN”), a division of ICAN Investing Group LLC to supply product for distribution in the Latin Americas with a primary focus on Mexico and Panama. The agreement is subject to certain minimum required annual levels of purchases by ICAN.

On March 11, 2024, the Company shipped its first product to a Canadian LP for distribution within Canada.

On March 12, 2024, the Company announced completion of its first five grows and harvests are ready for sale, with testing of the new grows underway with an independent certified laboratory to confirm that the products meet standards for distribution throughout Canada and internationally.

On April 2, 2024, the Company announced repayment of its convertible notes with 1800 Diagonal Lending, LLC and Janbella Group, LLC with cash generated from debt financing with a private lender.

On August 18, 2024, the Company announced that it had received three purchase orders for cannabis, for a total of 600KG, from Cantek Holdings.

 

Recent Funding

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company:

 

Issued $213,488 in new convertible debentures to accredited investors with immediate maturity and interest rates of 10%, and converted $62,910 of the outstanding convertible notes into Common Shares.

Entered into a $100,000 note payable agreement with a private individual bearing interest at 12% per annum and maturing April 9, 2025.

Entered into two additional notes payable agreements for $50,001 ($68,326 CAD) and $70,001 ($95,460 CAD), respectively, with a second private individual, each bearing interest at 10% per annum, the $50,001 note payable maturing on May 10, 2024 and the $70,001 note payable on May 31, 2024.

Entered into two additional notes payable agreements for $50,000 ($67,320 CAD) and $50,000 ($68,098 CAD), respectively, with a third and fourth private individual, each bearing interest at 15% per annum, maturing on April 14, 2025 and July 29, 2025, respectively.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company issued $213,750 in new convertible debentures to accredited investors with 12-month terms to maturity and interest rates between 10% and 12% and converted $222,096 of the outstanding convertible notes into Common Shares.

 

Going Concern

 

Substantial doubt exists as to our ability to continue as a going concern based on the fact that we do not have adequate working capital to finance our day-to-day operations. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company reported $312,164 (2023 - $nil) and $338,003 (2023 - $nil), respectively, in revenue.

 

The Company’s deficit of $97,443,301 as at September 30, 2024 indicates substantial uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans include engaging in further research and development and raising additional capital in the short term to fund such activities through sales of its common stock. Management’s ability to implement its plans and continue as a going concern may be dependent upon raising additional capital. Our continued existence depends on the success of our efforts to raise additional capital necessary to meet our obligations as they come due and to obtain sufficient capital to execute our business plan. We may obtain capital primarily through issuances of debt or equity or entering into collaborative arrangements with corporate partners. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in completing additional financing or collaboration transactions or, if financing is available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, we may be required to further scale down or perhaps even cease the operation of our business. The issuance of additional equity securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments. Our financial statements do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Revenue

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company reported revenue of $312,164 and $nil, respectively. Product sales commenced during 2024 and therefore the Company reported no revenue in the prior year comparable quarter.

Included in cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 is loss on impairment of inventory of $79,178 and $nil, respectively, primarily due to lower net realizable value attributed to early batches of product as a result of suboptimal THC levels.

During the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company’s operating expenses consisted primarily of amortization and depreciation, general and administrative expenses, payroll and consulting fees, and professional fees associated with the costs for services or employees in finance, accounting, sales, administrative activities and the compliance of a public company. Overall operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 were $141,788 compared to operating expenses of $667,497 in the prior year comparable period, a decrease of $525,709. The decrease is primarily attributable the following:

 

A $76,550 decrease to amortization and depreciation primarily due to allocation of the majority of the expense to inventory during the current period and an overall decrease in depreciation expense due to fixed assets reaching or nearing the end of their useful lives.

A $285,395 decrease to general and administrative expenses primarily due to an overall decrease in discretionary and extraneous spending, and to allocation of a portion of the expenses to inventory.

A $138,903 reduction in payroll and consulting fees due to a change in management resulting in a reduction in payroll accruals for officers, as well as allocation of direct labour to inventory.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

 

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The following represents a summary of our critical accounting policies, defined as those policies that we believe are the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

Management has reviewed all other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on our financial condition or the results of our operations.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have not entered into 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 and would be considered material to investors.

 

ITEM 2. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

The Company is classified as a smaller reporting company and is not required to provide the information under this item pursuant to Regulation S-K.

 

ITEM 3. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures - Our management, with the participation of our Director and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as at the end of the period covered by this Report.

 

These controls are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

As evidenced by our late filing of the December 31, 2023 10-K, our director and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as at December 31, 2023 at the reasonable assurance level.

 

We have implemented new procedures for the period ended September 30, 2024 to mitigate this ineffectiveness and will continue to monitor their effectiveness. We believe that our financial statements presented in this Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for all periods presented herein.

 

Inherent Limitations - Our management, including our Director and Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. 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. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdown can occur because of simple error or mistake. In particular, many of our current processes rely upon manual reviews and processes to ensure that neither human error nor system weakness has resulted in erroneous reporting of financial data.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting - Other than an emphasis on timely filing, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period ended September 30, 2024, which were identified in conjunction with management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

Ataraxia

 

As part of our acquisition of AMS, we assumed an action filed against AMS by Ataraxia Canada, Inc. (“Ataraxia”), alleging breach of contract, specifically, breach of a non-binding term sheet providing for Ataraxia to acquire controlling interest in AMS. Ataraxia is seeking $15 million in damages. A Statement of Claim was prepared by Ataraxia, as plaintiff, and circulated to AMS, as defendant, on August 2, 2018, under the Ontario Superior Court of Justice (Court file no. CV-17-580157). The parties have engaged in discussions with respect to a potential settlement of this matter. Counsel has advised that it believes it is premature to speculate on any outcome of this litigation, including the likelihood of a settlement or any potential liability at this time.

 

Our agreement to acquire AMS contained a provision requiring us to diligently defend against the claims brought forth in, and assume full and complete control of, the Ataraxia litigation, provided that we shall not enter into any compromise or settlement in respect of the Ataraxia litigation without the prior written consent of the sellers, which consent is not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. The sellers are obligated to cooperate fully and make available to us all pertinent information and witnesses under their control, make such assignments and take such other steps as in the opinion of our counsel are reasonably necessary to enable us to defend against the claims brought forth in the Ataraxia litigation.

 

We are currently reviewing two separate situations with our legal counsel in order to ascertain whether we have claims against Steven Barber arising out of his default of the Consulting Agreement we entered into as part of the AMS acquisition more fully described in” Part I, Item 1,” Business, above and various claims against Gary Herick, a former officer and director. In January 2020, we received correspondence from counsel for Mr. Barber demanding payment on amounts purported to be due pursuant to his Consulting Agreement with us. We are currently reviewing whether Mr. Barber has performed pursuant to the terms of the Consulting Agreement.

 

No decision on whether to proceed on either of these situations has been reached as at the date of this Report.

 

BCI

 

On April 15, 2021, Bristol Capital Investors, LLC (BCI) filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles against CannaPharmaRX Inc. and Does 1 - 50, inclusive (Case No. 21st CV1 3696). The lawsuit alleges that CPRX breached the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Membership Purchase Agreement it had entered into with Bristol Capital Investors, LLC (BCI) to purchase BCI’s interest in Ramon Road Production Campus, LLC (RRPC), a single asset entity which owned an improved property, known as the Glass House, located in Cathedral City, California. BCI alleges causes of action for Fraud, Breach of Contract, Breach of the Implied Covenant of Good Faith and Fair Dealing, and Negligent Misrepresentation, and seeks compensatory and consequential damages in the amount of $10.5 million dollars plus attorneys’ fees and costs. CPRX intends to vigorously defend against BCI’s lawsuit, going forward. The parties conducted a court-ordered mediation, and the parties are engaging in on-going discussions.

 

Deloitte

 

On July 18, 2024, Deloitte LLP (“Deloitte”) filed a civil claim in the Alberta Court of Justice, alleging a breach of contract. Deloitte was engaged by CannapharmaRX to assist with fiscal year 2022 Finance Backfill and Diagnostic services and in accordance with a signed engagement letter dated August 29, 2022, proceeded to perform the professional services. Deloitte pleads that it has discharged its responsibilities and delivered its accounts to CannapharmaRX. CannapharmaRX acknowledged its satisfactory completion of services and the debts rendered but made no further payment as agreed other than an instalment payment on April 18, 2024. Deloitte is seeking recovery of the amount owing.

 

Former executives

 

Former executives of the company John Cassels and Andrew Steedman have filed a lawsuit against the company alleging damages and back pay due to them. The company has engaged legal counsel to resolve these matters. In the meantime, the company is working to settle the matters with both Mr. Steedman and Mr. Cassels.

We are not a party to any other legal proceeding or aware of any other threatened action as at the date of this Report.
