Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Item 2, of Part I of this report include forward-looking statements. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our 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 by forward-looking statements.
In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “proposed,” “intended,” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. You should read statements that contain these words carefully, because they discuss our expectations about our future operating results or our future financial condition or state other “forward-looking” information. There may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or control. Before you invest in our securities, you should be aware that the occurrence of any of the events described in this Quarterly Report could substantially harm our business, results of operations and financial condition, and that upon the occurrence of any of these events, the trading price of our securities could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, growth rates, levels of activity, performance or achievements. We are under no duty to update any of the forward-looking statements after the date of this Quarterly Report to conform these statements to actual results.

1606 Corp.
Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
September 30, 2024
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Corporate History
1606 Corp. (“1606” or the “Company”) was formed in February 2021 and was a division of Singlepoint Inc. (“Singlepoint”) until April 2021, when Singlepoint spun off 1606, whereby each holder of common stock and Class A preferred stock of Singlepoint received one share of unregistered and restricted common stock or Class A preferred stock of the Company for each such share owned of Singlepoint.
Business
The Company is an AI Chatbot company specializing in merchandizing bot specifically built for the CBD industry and AI Chatbots for public companies.
Going Concern
The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As of September 30, 2024, the Company has yet to achieve significant profitable operations and is dependent on its ability to raise capital from stockholders or other sources to sustain operations and to ultimately achieve viable operations. The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company’s ability to continue in existence is dependent on its ability to develop its business and to achieve profitable operations. Since the Company does not anticipate achieving profitable operations and/or adequate cash flows in the near term, management will continue to pursue additional equity financing through private placements of the Company’s common stock.
NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements and related notes have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024. The balance sheet at December 31, 2023 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 17, 2024.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the condensed financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 condensed financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results may differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements include valuation of notes receivable, valuation of inventory valuation of derivative liabilities, valuation of stock-based costs, and valuation of deferred tax assets..
Reclassifications
The Company reclassified certain interest expenses of $

Cash consists of highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

Accounts Receivable and Credit Policy
Trade receivables due from customers are uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms requiring payment within 30 days from the invoice date. Uncollectable accounts are charged to expense when the account is determined to be uncollectable. The allowance is provided based upon a review of the individual accounts outstanding, prior history of uncollectable accounts receivable and existing economic conditions. At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the allowance for doubtful accounts balance is $
Inventory
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, and consisted primarily of finished hemp products. At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates inventories for excess quantities, obsolescence, or shelf-life expiration. This evaluation includes analysis of historical sales levels by product, projections of future demand and the risk of technological or competitive obsolescence for products. To the extent that management determines there is excess or obsolete inventory or quantities with a shelf life that is too near its expiration for the Company to reasonably expect that it can sell those products prior to their expiration, the Company adjusts the carrying value of this inventory to the lower of cost or net realizable value. During the nine months ended September 30, 20204, the Company wrote off inventory in the amount of $
Derivative Liabilities
The Company has certain financial instruments that are derivatives or contain embedded derivatives. The Company evaluates all its financial instruments to determine if those contracts or any potential embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC 810-10-05-4 and 815-40. This accounting treatment requires that the carrying amount of any derivatives be recorded at fair value at issuance and marked-to-market at each balance sheet date. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, as is the case with the Company, the change in the fair value during the period is recorded as either other income or expense. Upon conversion, exercise or repayment, the respective derivative liability is marked to fair value at the conversion, repayment or exercise date and then the related fair value amount is reclassified to other income or expense as part of gain or loss on extinguishment.
When a convertible note that contains a bi-furcated derivative is converted, it is not considered to be a convertible note for accounting purposes. Therefore, the Company will recognize a gain or loss on the conversion as a debt extinguishment gain or loss based on the difference between the fair value of the shares issued and the book value of the debt converted.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” which requires all stock-based awards granted to employees, directors and non-employees to be measured at grant date fair value of the equity instrument issued and recognized as expense. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally equivalent to the vesting period. The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The measurement date for the non-forfeitable awards to non-employees that vest immediately is the date the award is granted.
Revenue Recognition
The Company, which has adopted ASC 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, derives its revenues primarily from the sale of hemp products at a point in time. Revenues are recognized when control of these products is transferred to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those products, the Company's performance obligations have been met and collection is probable. Sales and other taxes the Company collects concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Any shipping and handling fees charged to customers are reported within revenue. Incidental items that are immaterial in the context of the contract are recognized as expense. The Company does not have any significant financing components as payment is received at or shortly after the point of sale.
Cost of Goods Sold and Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Costs associated with the production and procurement of product are included in cost of goods sold, including shipping and handling costs such as inbound freight costs, purchasing, and receiving costs, inspection costs and other product procurement related charges. All other expenses are included in selling, general and administrative expenses, as the predominant expenses associated therewith are general and administrative in nature.
Net Loss Per Common Share
Basic loss per share data is computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share data is computed using the weighted-average number of common and dilutive common-equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive common-equivalent shares consist of shares that would be issued upon the exercise of stock options and other common stock equivalents, computed using the treasury stock method, and are excluded from the calculation of weighted average dilutive common shares, to the extent they are issued and outstanding, because their effect would be anti-dilutive. The number of potentially dilutive shares excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share were
At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023,
Selling and Marketing
Selling and marketing costs are expensed as incurred and are reported under selling, general and administrative in the accompanying condensed statements of operations.
Fair Value Measurement
ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement”, requires that certain financial instruments be recognized at their fair values at our balance sheet dates. However, other financial instruments, such as debt obligations, are not required to be recognized at their fair values, but GAAP provides an option to elect fair value accounting for these instruments. GAAP requires the disclosure of the fair values of all financial instruments, regardless of whether they are recognized at their fair values or carrying amounts in our balance sheets. For financial instruments recognized at fair value, GAAP requires the disclosure of their fair values by type of instrument, along with other information, including changes in the fair values of certain financial instruments recognized in income or other comprehensive income. For financial instruments not recognized at fair value, the disclosure of their fair values is provided below under “Financial Instruments.”

Table of Contents |
Nonfinancial assets, such as property, plant and equipment, and nonfinancial liabilities are recognized at their carrying amounts in the Company’s balance sheets. GAAP does not permit nonfinancial assets and liabilities to be remeasured at their fair values. However, GAAP requires the remeasurement of such assets and liabilities to their fair values upon the occurrence of certain events, such as the impairment of property, plant and equipment. In addition, if such an event occurs, GAAP requires the disclosure of the fair value of the asset or liability along with other information, including the gain or loss recognized in income in the period the remeasurement occurred.
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; or
Level 3 - Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity).
The Company did not have any Level 1 or Level 2 assets and liabilities at September 30, 2024, or December 31, 2023. The Derivative liabilities are Level 3 fair value measurements.
The following is a summary of activity of Level 3 liabilities for the period ended September 30, 2024:

During 2024 and 2023, the Company issued note payable agreements which contain conversion provisions meeting the definition of a derivative liability which therefore require bifurcation. Further, pursuant to the Company’s contract ordering policy, equity linked instruments subsequently issued resulted in derivative liabilities.
Settlements of derivative liabilities are the result of conversions or repayments of the underlying note payable agreements. The fair value of the bifurcated derivative related to the amounts converted or repaid are included in the (gain) loss on debt extinguishment in the accompanying condensed statement of operations.
At September 30, 2024, and for the nine months then ended, the Company estimated the fair value of the conversion feature derivatives embedded in the notes payable and warrants based on assumptions used in the Cox-Ross-Rubinstein binomial pricing model using the following inputs: the price of the Company’s common stock ranging from $

Segment reporting
The Company operates in a single business segment. As a result, the Company’s operations are a single reportable segment, which is consistent with the Company’s internal management reporting.
Income Taxes
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which will require the Company to disclose specified additional information in its income tax rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. ASU 2023-09 will also require the Company to disaggregate its income taxes paid disclosure by federal, state and foreign taxes, with further disaggregation required for significant individual jurisdictions. The Company will adopt ASU 2023-09 in its fourth quarter of 2026. ASU 2023-09 allows for adoption using either a prospective or retrospective transition method.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has considered the potential impact of recent accounting pronouncements and has not identified any that are expected to have a material impact on the financial statements.

NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings and Other Claims
From time to time, we are a party to claims and actions for matters arising out of our business operations. We regularly evaluate the status of the legal proceedings and other claims in which we are involved to assess whether a loss is probable or there is a reasonable possibility that a loss, or an additional loss, may have been incurred and determine if accruals are appropriate. If accruals are not appropriate, we further evaluate each legal proceeding to assess whether an estimate of possible loss or range of possible loss can be made for disclosure. Although the outcome of claims and litigation is inherently unpredictable, we believe that we have adequate provisions for any probable and estimable losses. It is possible, nevertheless, that our financial position, results of operations or liquidity could be materially and adversely affected in any particular period by the resolution of a claim or legal proceeding. Legal expenses related to defense, negotiations, settlements, rulings, and advice of outside legal counsel are expensed as incurred.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Plan of Operation
1606 Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), was incorporated in Nevada in February 2021 and spun-off from Singlepoint Inc. in April 2021. Management believes the assumptions made to carve out the Company’s underlying standalone financial statements from the consolidated Singlepoint results prior to the April 2021 spin-off are reasonable.
In August 2023, we achieved our goal of creating a chatbot using AI technology to be placed on CBD retailers’ and brands’ websites. This chatbot is able to answer questions specifically tailored to the CBD industry and can be trained on client specific questions as well as trained to accommodate other industries. In addition to the ability to answer questions, the bot can use answers and customer feedback to recommend a product from the list uploaded by the client.
On August 17, 2023, we engaged AR XTLabs to help in development of an AI chatbot specifically designed for the CBD industry. The chatbot offers CBD and wellness merchants the ability to increase sales by providing product recommendations, track user behavior for inventory management, and ChatCBDW can also provide information on products and education around the clock. Our bot was built on Microsoft Azure by AR XTLabs, a state-of-the-art development company in the AI space. ChatCBDW is a proprietary bot fully integrated with ChatGPT, a state-of-the-art language model developed by OpenAI. This integration equips ChatCBDW with natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning capabilities, allowing lifelike conversations and intelligent product recommendations. It's designed to drive sales, educate audiences on products, and provide analytics on customer preferences and behavior, contributing to inventory management. The chat technology is enhanced through a patent possible process that tailors product recommendations to merchant specifications.
In September 2023, we partnered with Cool Blue Distribution, a leading CBD distributor, to better expand our CBD expertise and gain access hundreds of retailers and brands. The Company agreed to install the bot on Cool Blue’s website as the first beta tester of our new chatbot.
On October 31, 2023, we announced that the beta version of our ChatCBDW bot was live on our site as well as cool blue Distributions website. We are working towards getting CBD brands and retailers to sign up for the bot on a monthly basis.
We are focused on signing business to use the chatbot with a monthly recuring licensing fee model. We are using a combination of our website, online ads, and email campaigns targeted towards CBD brands and retailers, we have cultivated considerable interest in 1606 and our AI Chatbot technology.
We are also using ISO’s or independent sales organizations to sell the Chatbot or include it in a package deal with their products. These ISO’s include but are not limited to CBD Distributors, website designers and builders, and payment processing services within and outside the CBD industry.
On April 30, 2024, we announced the completion of our second AI bot made for public companies. Chat IR is a bot made to go on public companies’ websites and answers questions about the company’s operations and disclosures.

Net Loss. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, net loss was $4,195,265 and $1,392,683, respectively. The increase in net loss was primarily due to higher operating expenses as discussed above.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2024, we have yet to achieve profitable operations, and while we hope to achieve profitable operations in the future, if not, we may need to raise capital from stockholders or other sources to sustain operations and to ultimately achieve viable operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our principal sources of liquidity have been cash provided by operating activities, as well as our ability to raise capital. Our operating results for future periods are subject to numerous uncertainties and it is uncertain if we will be able to become profitable and continue growth for the foreseeable future. If management is not able to increase revenue and/or manage operating expenses, we may not be able to achieve profitability. Our ability to continue in existence is dependent on our ability to achieve profitable operations.
To continue operations for the next 12 months, we will have a cash need of approximately $1,000,000. Should we not be able to fulfill our cash needs through the increase of revenue, we will need to raise money through outside investors through convertible notes, debt or similar instrument(s). Our plans to pay off current liabilities through sales and increasing revenue through sales of our services and or products, or through financing activities as mentioned above, although there is no guarantee that we will ultimately do so.
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $710,699 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, primarily as a result of our net loss of $4,195,265, change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $41,859, and gain on debt extinguishment of $102,579, offset by shares issued for services provided of $3,033,400 amortization of debt discount of $292,470, and net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $208,781.
Net cash used in operating activities was $591,749 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily as a result of our net loss of $1,392,683, offset by shares issued for services provided of $218,002, financing costs of $225,952, change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $42,372, $65,000 for the write-off of investments, amortization of debt discount of $31,482, and net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $218,126.
Investing Activities
There was no cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Net cash used in investing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, totaled $86,500. The Company made preliminary investments of $50,000 and $15,000 in two separate operating companies which were then subsequently written-off. The $21,500 in 2024 related to additional funds advanced to one of the target companies for which the Company has Notes Receivable which is has now been determined to be uncollectible.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of condensed financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities of the date of the condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Notes to Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Condensed Financial Statements. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, contingencies and taxes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The following critical accounting policies are impacted significantly by judgments, assumptions, and estimates used in the preparation of the Condensed Financial Statements.
Derivative Liabilities
The Company has certain financial instruments that are derivatives or contain embedded derivatives. The Company evaluates all its financial instruments to determine if those contracts or any potential embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC 810-10-05-4 and 815-40. This accounting treatment requires that the carrying amount of any derivatives be recorded at fair value at issuance and marked-to-market at each balance sheet date. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, as is the case with the Company, the change in the fair value during the period is recorded as either other income or expense. Upon conversion, exercise or repayment, the respective derivative liability is marked to fair value at the conversion, repayment or exercise date and then the related fair value amount is reclassified to other income or expense as part of gain or loss on extinguishment.
When a convertible note that contains a bi-furcated derivative is converted, it is not considered to be a convertible note for accounting purposes. Therefore, the Company will recognize a gain or loss on the conversion as a debt extinguishment gain or loss based on the difference between the fair value of the shares issued and the book value of the debt converted.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” which requires all stock-based awards granted to employees, directors and non-employees to be measured at grant date fair value of the equity instrument issued and recognized as expense. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally equivalent to the vesting period. The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The measurement date for the non-forfeitable awards to non-employees that vest immediately is the date the award is granted.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We have performed an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2024. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our President and CEO, who also serves as our CFO, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2024 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure due to the material weaknesses described below.
Based on our evaluation under the framework described above, our management concluded that we had “material weaknesses” (as such term is defined below) in our control environment and financial reporting process consisting of the following as of the Evaluation Date:
1) | lack of a functioning audit committee resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal control and procedures; and |
2) | inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives. |
A “material weakness” is defined under SEC rules as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company’s internal controls.
A system of controls, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the system of controls are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act, during the Company’s quarter ended September 30, 2024, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
