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

Certain statements in this Report constitute “forward-looking statements.” Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include, among others, uncertainties relating to general economic and business conditions; industry trends; changes in demand for our products and services; uncertainties relating to customer plans and commitments and the timing of orders received from customers; announcements or changes in our pricing policies or that of our competitors; unanticipated delays in the development, market acceptance or installation of our products and services; changes in government regulations; availability of management and other key personnel; availability, terms and deployment of capital; relationships with third-party equipment suppliers; and worldwide political stability and economic growth. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend” and “plan” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statement was made.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 2019, compared with the Three Months Ended March 31, 2018

Revenue for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was $100,282 and $94,590, respectively. Cost of revenues for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was $45,609 and $46,513, respectively. Gross profit for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was $54,673 and $48,077, respectively. These numbers are materially consistent and are a result of the business operations of PrestoCorp. The Company acquired a 51% interest in PrestoCorp on August 1, 2017.

Net loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 was $748,658 compared to net loss of $1,107,834 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018. The decrease resulted from a decrease in professional fees and general and administrative expenses.

Total operating expenses were $792,488 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 and $1,355,911 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2018, resulting in a decrease in total operating expenses of $563,423. The decrease was attributable to a decrease of $276,948 in professional fees and a decrease of $286,475 in general and administrative expenses. The decrease in professional fees came about as a result of the elimination of three consulting positions. The decrease in general and administrative expenses came about as a result of lower marketing costs due to the termination of the TransHigh marketing agreement, lower legal costs, the consolidation of the CEO position with the President, and lower overhead costs at PrestoDoctor.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our operations used $106,895 in cash for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019. During the same period, our cash decreased by $107,023 accounting for the cash that was used.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company

will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As stated above, we incurred a net loss of $748,658 and $1,107,834 respectively for the quarters ended March 31, 2019, and 2018, and had an accumulated deficit of approximately $72,000,000 as of March 31, 2019. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company may seek to raise money for working capital purposes through a public offering of its equity capital or through a private placement of equity capital or convertible debt. It will be important for the Company to be successful in its efforts to raise capital in this manner if it is going to be able to further its business plan in an aggressive manner. Raising capital in this manner will cause dilution to current shareholders.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were not effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 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 chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A discussion of the material weaknesses in our controls and procedures is described below.

Based on its evaluation, our management concluded that there are material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Management identified the following material weaknesses:

We have not performed a risk assessment and mapped our processes to control objectives;

We have not implemented comprehensive entity-level internal controls;

We have not implemented adequate system and manual controls;

We did not employ an adequate number of people to ensure a control environment that would allow for the

accurate and timely reporting of the financial statements in accordance with GAAP; and

We do not have sufficient segregation of duties.

Based on our evaluation under the frameworks described above, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of March 31, 2019. However, moving forward with the intended addition of additional staff, we believe our current framework will help remedy our material weaknesses.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2019 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We are not a party to any material legal proceedings, and to the best of our knowledge, no such legal proceedings have been threatened against us.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Not required.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

During the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2019, the board of directors approved the issuance of 40,946 shares of preferred stock for services in the amount of approximately $107,000. The preferred stock is convertible into shares of common stock on a share for share basis. The fair value of the shares issued was based on the market price of the Company’s common stock on the measurement date.

During the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2019, the board of directors approved the issuance of 127,061 shares of common stock for services in the amount of approximately $347,000. The fair value of the shares issued was based on the market price of the Company’s common stock on the measurement date.

Each of the issuances of stock in this Item 2 was exempt from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Act since the recipients of the shares were persons closely associated with the Company and the issuance of the shares did not involve any public offering.

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 and 2018

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Corporation:

Ultra Sun Corp (the “Company,” “us”, “we” or “our”) was incorporated under the laws of Nevada in November 2004. On November 13, 2013, we changed our name to Cannabis Sativa, Inc. Our wholly-owned subsidiary Kush, Inc. (“Kush”) was acquired by us in June 2014 in exchange for shares of our common stock. Our wholly-owned subsidiary Wild Earth Naturals, Inc. (“Wild Earth”) was acquired by us in July 2013 in exchange for shares of our common stock. From our inception through September 30, 2013 we were engaged in the tanning salon business and operated a tanning salon in Saratoga Springs, Utah under the name “Sahara Sun Tanning.” As a result of our acquisition of Wild Earth in July 2013, we became engaged in the herbal skin care products business. On September 30, 2013, we sold the assets of the tanning salon business to a third party. As a result of our acquisition of Kush in June 2014, along with our Wild Earth operations we are now engaged in the developing and promoting of natural cannabis products. On November 2, 2015, Kush was spun off from the Company. On August 8, 2016 the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with iBudtender Inc. to purchase 50.1% of iBudtender Inc. On August 1, 2017, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with PrestoCorp, Inc. (“PrestoCorp”) to purchase 51% of PrestoCorp.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2014, the Company created Eden Holdings LLC, (the “LLC”). The purpose of the LLC is to hold the intellectual property of Cannabis Sativa, Inc. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, there has been no activity in the LLC.

Basis of Presentation:

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2018, has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2019 and 2018, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included in our Annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (the “2018 Annual Report”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). It is management’s opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments), have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statements presentation. The condensed consolidated financial statements include all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to make the condensed consolidated financial statements not misleading as required by Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations expected for the year ending December 31, 2019.

Principles of Consolidation:

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cannabis Sativa, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiaries; Wild Earth Naturals, Inc., Hi-Brands International, Inc., Eden Holdings LLC, our 50.1% ownership of iBudtender Inc. and our 51% ownership of PrestoCorp, (collectively referred to as the “Company”). All significant inter-company balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Method of Accounting:

The Company maintains its books and prepares its condensed consolidated financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 and 2018

Use of Estimates:

The preparation of these condensed consolidated 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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such management estimates include valuation of intangible assets in connection with business combinations, recoverability of long-lived assets and goodwill, and the valuation of equity-based instruments. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Liquidity:

Our operations have been financed primarily through proceeds from notes payable, convertible notes payable, sale of common stock, warrants exercised for common stock and revenue generated from sales of our products. These funds have provided us with the resources to operate our business, sell and support our products, attract and retain key personnel and add new products to our portfolio. We have experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations each year since our inception. As of March 31, 2019, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $72,000,000 and negative working capital.

Segment Information:

We operate our business on the basis of a single reportable segment, which is the business of delivering products and services ancillary to the medical cannabis market. Our chief operating decision-maker is the Chief Executive Officer, who evaluates us as a single operating segment.

Accounts Receivable:

We estimate credit loss reserves for accounts receivable on an individual receivable basis. A specific impairment allowance reserve is established based on expected future cash flows and the financial condition of the debtor. We charge off customer balances in part or in full when it is more likely than not that we will not collect that amount of the balance due. We consider any balance unpaid after the contract payment period to be past due. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 the Company has established an allowance for doubtful accounts of $1,461 and $-0-, respectively.

Inventories:

Inventory cost includes those costs directly attributable to the product before sale. Inventory consists of salves, ointments, lotions, creams and balms and is carried at the lower of cost or (net realizable value), using first-in, first-out method of determining cost. At March 31, 2019 the Company had $-0- in inventory. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had $5,714 in raw materials and $-0- in finished goods inventory.

Property and Equipment:

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided for on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The average lives range from five (5) to ten (10) years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on the straight-line method over the lesser of the lease term or the useful life. Maintenance and repairs that neither materially add to the value of the property nor appreciably prolong its life are charged to expense as incurred. Betterments or renewals are capitalized when incurred.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 and 2018

Fair Value of Financial Instruments:

Cash:

Cash is held at major financial institutions and insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to federal insurance limits.

Net Loss per Share:

Net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and contains no dilutive securities. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity. Potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because the effect is anti-dilutive.

Revenue Recognition:

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new revenue recognition standard ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”, using the cumulative effect (modified retrospective) approach. Modified retrospective adoption requires entities to apply the standard retrospectively to the most current period presented in the financial statements, requiring the cumulative effect of the retrospective application as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings at the date of initial application. No cumulative-effect adjustment in retained earnings was recorded as the adoption of ASU 2014-09 did not significantly impact the Company’s reported historical revenue. Revenue from substantially all of our contracts with customers continues to be recognized over time as services are rendered. The impact of the adoption of the new standard was not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018. The Company expects the impact to be immaterial on an ongoing basis.

The primary change under the new guidance is the requirement to report the allowance for uncollectible accounts as a reduction in net revenue as opposed to bad debt expense, a component of operating expenses. The Company has historically included the allowance for uncollectible accounts amounts with its allowance for contractual adjustments as a reduction in operating expenses. However most contracts are collected in full at time of delivery and the Company has immaterial account receivables and also related uncollectible accounts. Accordingly, the adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements, other than additional financial statement disclosures.

The guidance requires increased disclosures, including qualitative and quantitative disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.

At the adoption of Topic 606, the majority of what was previously classified as the provision for bad debts in the consolidated statements of income is now reflected as implicit price concessions and, therefore, included as a reduction to revenues in 2018. For changes in credit issues not assessed at the date of service, the Company will prospectively recognize those amounts in operating expenses on the consolidated statements of income.

The Company operates as one reportable segment.

The Company receives payments from individual clients and patients. As the period between the time of service and time of payment is typically one day or less if it is an internet sale otherwise payment can be up to 30 days, the Company elected the practical expedient under ASC 606-10-32-18 and did not adjust for the effects of a significant financing component.

Revenue Recognition - continued:

Under the new revenue standard, the Company has elected to apply the following practical expedients and optional exemptions:

· Recognize incremental costs of obtaining a contract with amortization periods of one year or less as expense when incurred. These costs are recorded within general and administrative expenses.

· Recognize revenue in the amount of consideration to which the Company has a right to invoice the customer if that amount corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the Company’s services completed to date.

· Exemptions from disclosing the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less, (ii) contracts for which revenue is recognized in the amount of consideration to which the Company has a right to invoice for services performed, and (iii) contracts for which variable consideration is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation or to a wholly unsatisfied promise to transfer a distinct service that forms part of a single performance obligation.

· No adjustment is made for the effects of a significant financing component as the period between the time of service and time of payment is typically one year or less.

The Company recognizes revenue from product sales or services rendered when the following five revenue recognition criteria are met: identify the contract with the client, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract and recognize revenues when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, approximately 100% and 93% of the revenue is from PrestoCorp operations, respectively.

Investment

Investments in marketable securities are stated at fair value, and consist of minority ownership in a cannabis related company. Beginning in 2018, the Company recognizes unrealized holding gains and losses in other (Income) Expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company purchased 10,000,000 shares of common stock of Medical Cannabis Payment Solutions (ticker: REFG) in exchange for 1,000,000 units of Weed coins (valued at $200,000). There has been no change in the fair value of the investment in REFG during the three months ended March 31, 2019. During the period January 1, 2019 through March 31, 2019 the investment was extremely volatile. The value being as low as $128,000 and as high as $394,000. There can be no assurances that when the Company liquidates its position of REFG, that it will realize the valuation included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements at March 31, 2019.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets:

Intangible assets other than goodwill, are comprised of patents, trademarks, the Company’s “CBDS.com” website domain and intellectual property rights. The patents are being amortized using the straight-line method over its economic life, which is estimated to be ten (10) years. The trademarks are being amortized between 5 and 10 years. The CBDS.com website is being amortized using the straight-line method over its economic life, which is estimated to be five (5) years. The intellectual property rights are being amortized using the straight-line month over its economic life, which are estimated to be between three (3) and five (5) years.

The Company tests its goodwill for impairment annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicates an impairment may have occurred, by comparing its reporting unit's carrying value to its implied fair value. The goodwill impairment test consists of a two-step process as follows:

CANNABIS SATIVA, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 and 2018

Goodwill and Intangible Assets:- continued

Step 1. The Company compares the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying amount, including the existing goodwill. The fair value of each reporting unit is determined using a discounted cash flow valuation analysis. The carrying amount of each reporting unit is determined by specifically identifying and allocating the assets and liabilities to each reporting unit based on headcount, relative revenue or other methods as deemed appropriate by management. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an indication exists that the reporting unit’s goodwill may be impaired, and the Company then perform the second step of the impairment test. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, no further analysis is required.

Step 2. If further analysis is required, the Company compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill, determined by allocating the reporting unit’s fair value to all of its assets and its liabilities in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation, to its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss will be recognized in an amount equal to the excess.

Impairment may result from, among other things, deterioration in the performance of the acquired business, adverse market conditions, adverse changes in applicable laws or regulations and a variety of other circumstances. If the Company determines that an impairment has occurred, it is required to record a write-down of the carrying value and charge the impairment as an operating expense in the period the determination is made. In evaluating the recoverability of the carrying value of goodwill, the Company must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the acquired assets. Changes in strategy or market conditions could significantly impact those judgments in the future and require an adjustment to the recorded balances.

The goodwill was recorded as part of the acquisition of PrestoCorp that occurred on August 1, 2017 and iBudtender that occurred on August 8, 2016. For each of the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 the Company did not record the impairment of any goodwill. The Company recorded an impairment of its PrestoCorp goodwill in the amount of $1,173,000 for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Advertising Expense:

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Advertising costs were approximately $33,153 and $178,680 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Long-Lived Assets:

We review our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. We evaluate assets for potential impairment by comparing estimated future undiscounted net cash flows to the carrying amount of the assets. If the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows, impairment is measured based on the difference between the carrying amount of the assets and fair value. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the consolidated balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell and are no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposal group classified as held-for-sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the consolidated balance sheet, if material. During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 we did not recognize any impairment of our long-lived assets.

Stock-Based Compensation:

Stock-based compensation is computed in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718. FASB ASC 718 requires all share-based payment to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized as compensation expense in the consolidated financial statements based on their fair values. That expense will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). The Company has selected the Black-Scholes option pricing model as the most appropriate fair value method for our awards and have recognized compensation costs immediately as our awards are 100% vested.

The Company’s accounting policy for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows the provisions of FASB ASC 505-50. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor’s performance is complete.

In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement. Stock-based compensation related to non-employees is accounted for based on the fair value of the related stock or options or the fair value of the services, whichever is more readily determinable in accordance with ASC 718.

Business Combinations:

We account for business combinations by recognizing the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, contractual contingencies, and contingent consideration at their fair values on the acquisition date. The final purchase price may be adjusted up to one year from the date of the acquisition. Identifying the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired requires the use of estimates by management and was based upon currently available data. Examples of critical estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets we have acquired or may acquire in the future include but are not limited to future expected cash flows from product sales, support agreements, consulting contracts, other customer contracts, and acquired developed technologies and patents and discount rates utilized in valuation estimates.

Unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that may affect the accuracy or validity of such assumptions, estimates or actual results. Additionally, any change in the fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration subsequent to the acquisition date, including changes from events after the acquisition date, such as changes in our estimate of relevant revenue or other targets, will be recognized in earnings in the period of the estimated fair value change. A change in fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration or the occurrence of events that cause results to differ from our estimates or assumptions could have a material effect on the consolidated statements of operations, financial position and cash flows in the period of the change in the estimate.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. The standard requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet and requires expanded disclosures about leasing arrangements. We adopted the standard on January 1, 2019. Based on our assessment of the new standard on our condensed consolidated financial statements, which will consist primarily of a balance sheet gross up of our operating leases to show equal and offsetting lease assets and lease liabilities, we have concluded that the impact is insignificant to our condensed consolidated financial statements based on the short-term nature of our leases and our election of such practical expedient.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) to expand the scope of ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) (“ASU 2018-07”), to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees. The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted.

This ASU did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

FASB ASU 2017-11 “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)” - In July 2017, the FASB issued 2017-11. The guidance eliminates the requirement to consider “down round” features when determining whether certain equity-linked financial instruments or embedded features are indexed to an entity’s own stock. Our warrants issued with our convertible notes are treated as derivative instruments, because they include a “down round” feature. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and for interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. This ASU did not have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

2. Fair Value Measurements

We adopted ASC Topic 820 for financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 establishes a three-tier fair value

hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

The estimated fair values for financial instruments are determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information. These estimates involve uncertainties and cannot be determined with precision. The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, inventory, investments, notes payable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities approximate fair value given their short-term nature or effective interest rates. We measure our investment in marketable securities at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company’s available for sale securities are valued using inputs observable in active markets for identical securities and are therefore classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy.

6. Stockholders’ Equity

Preferred Stock

The Company authorized 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The Company designated and determined the rights of Series A preferred stock (“Series A”) with a par value of $0.001. The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 shares of Series A.

The reason for the return of the shares was due to the amended contract. The Company noted the impairment indicator, however no related impairment to goodwill or other intangible assets was deemed necessary at March 31, 2019.

7. Going Concern Considerations

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has minimal working capital, has incurred operating losses since inception, and has not yet produced significant continuing revenues from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event that the Company cannot continue as a going concern. Management anticipates that it will be able to raise additional working capital through the issuance of stock and through additional loans from investors.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to raise adequate capital to fund operating losses until it is able to engage in profitable business operations. To the extent financing is not available, the Company may not be able to, or may be delayed in, developing its services and meeting its obligations. The Company will continue to evaluate its projected expenditures relative to its available cash and to evaluate additional means of financing in order to satisfy its working capital and other cash requirements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

8. Commitments and Contingencies

Lease

The Company leases an office and warehouse facility in Mesquite, Nevada that serves as the principal executive offices and provides manufacturing and warehouse space. The leased space consists of approximately 900 square feet. On September 1, 2018, a new lease agreement was signed at a monthly rate of $600. Lease term is for 12 (twelve) months, which expires in September 2019, with a renewal option available for an additional 12 (twelve) months. Rent expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was $1,800 and $4,176, respectively. PrestoCorp leases office space in San Francisco at $2,800 per month and $800 per month for a New York office and pays $1,500 per month for office facilities in Las Vegas, NV. Presto Corp. terminated its lease and closed its office in San Francisco as of the end of February 2019. The Las Vegas office was closed in November 2018. Primary operations for Presto are now focused in New York City. Rent expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was $11,469 and $12,300, respectively.

Litigation

In the ordinary course of business, we may face various claims brought by third parties and we may, from time to time, make claims or take legal actions to assert our rights, including intellectual property disputes, contractual disputes and other commercial disputes. Any of these claims could subject us to litigation. Management believes the outcomes of currently pending claims are not likely to have a material effect on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.

Additions, net	352,000
Issuances, net	(454,000)

Ending Balance–March 31, 2019	$ 430,000

Indemnities

The Company’s Articles of Incorporation and bylaws require us, among other things, to indemnify the director or officer against specified expenses and liabilities, such as attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlements, paid by the individual in connection with any action, suit or proceeding arising out of the individual’s status or service as our director or officer, other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct or conduct that is knowingly fraudulent or deliberately dishonest, and to advance expenses incurred by the individual in connection with any proceeding against the individual with respect to which the individual may be entitled to indemnification by us. We also indemnify our lessor in connection with our facility lease for certain claims arising from the use of the facilities. These indemnities do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments we could be obligated to make. Historically, we have not incurred any payments for these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

9. Subsequent Events

Through May 2019, the Company issued 105,842 shares of common stock and 40,946 shares of preferred stock, with an aggregate value of approximately $376,000 (based on the respective measurement dates), to consultants and officers for services rendered in the 1^st quarter of 2019 and services rendered through April 16, 2019. The value of 93,842 shares of common stock and 40,946 shares of preferred stock were included in stock payable at March 31, 2019 for services rendered prior to that date.
