Business Organization, Liquidity and Going Concern	NOTE 1 – BUSINESS ORGANIZATION, LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN Business Organization Long Island Iced Tea Corp, a Delaware corporation (“LIIT”), was formed on December 23, 2014. LIIT was formed in order to allow for the completion of mergers between Cullen Agricultural Holding Corp. (“Cullen”) and Long Island Brand Beverages LLC (“LIBB”). On December 31, 2014, LIIT entered into a merger agreement, as amended as of April 23, 2015, with Cullen, a public company, Cullen Merger Sub, Inc. (“Cullen Merger Sub”), LIBB Acquisition Sub, LLC (“LIBB Merger Sub”), LIBB and the founders of LIBB (“Founders”). Pursuant to the merger agreement, (a) Cullen Merger Sub was merged with and into Cullen, with Cullen surviving and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of LIIT and (b) LIBB Merger Sub was merged with and into LIBB, with LIBB surviving and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of LIIT (the “Mergers”). As a result of the Mergers which were consummated on May 27, 2015, LIIT consisted of its wholly owned subsidiaries, LIBB (its operating subsidiary) and Cullen and Cullen’s wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”). Under the merger agreement, upon consummation of the Mergers, the former holders of the LIBB membership interests (the “LIBB members”) received 2,633,334 shares of common stock of LIIT (or approximately 63%). For accounting purposes, the Mergers were treated as an acquisition of Cullen by LIBB and as a recapitalization of LIBB, as the former LIBB members held a large percentage of LIIT’s shares and exercised significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the consolidated entity and Cullen was a public shell company at the time of the transaction. Pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805-10-55-11 through 55-15, the merger or acquisition of a private operating company into a non-operating public shell with nominal assets is considered a capital transaction in substance rather than a business combination. As a result, the condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, and statements of cash flows of LIBB have been retroactively updated to reflect the recapitalization. Additionally, the historical condensed consolidated financial statements of LIBB are now reflected as those of the Company. Overview The Company is a holding company operating through its wholly-owned subsidiary, LIBB. The Company is engaged in the production and distribution of premium Non-Alcoholic ready-to-drink (“NARTD”) iced tea in the beverage industry. The Company is currently organized under its flagship brand, Long Island Iced Tea, a premium NARTD tea made from a proprietary recipe and with quality components. The Company’s mission is to provide consumers with premium iced tea offered at an affordable price. The Company aspires to be a market leader in the development of iced tea beverages that are convenient and appealing to consumers. There are two major target markets for Long Island Iced Tea: “consumers on the go” and “health conscious consumers.” “Consumers on the go” are families, employees, students and other consumers who lead a busy lifestyle. With increasingly hectic and demanding schedules, there is a need for products that are accessible and readily available. “Health conscious consumers” are individuals who are becoming more interested and better educated on what is included in their diets, causing them to shift away from the less healthy options, such as carbonated soft drinks, towards alternative beverages such as iced tea. The Company produces a 100% brewed iced tea, using black tea leaves, purified water and natural cane sugar or sucralose. Flavors change from time to time, and have included lemon, peach, raspberry, guava, mango, diet lemon, diet peach, sweet tea, green tea and honey, half tea and half lemonade. The Company also offers lower calorie iced tea in flavor options that include mango, raspberry and peach. The Company also sells its iced tea in gallon bottles with flavor options including lemon, peach, green tea and honey, sweet tea, mango and unsweetened. In addition, in order to service certain vending contracts, the Company sells snacks and other beverage products on a limited basis. The Company distributes an aloe vera derived juice beverage (“ALO Juice”) in 500ml and 1.5 liter bottles. ALO Juice is offered in six flavors including original, pomegranate, mango, raspberry, pineapple and coconut. During April 2017, the Company expanded its brand to include lemonade. Lemonade is offered in nine flavors including traditional, lime, pink lemonade, kiwi & strawberry, cherry, peach, watermelon, wild berries and strawberry and is offered at retail in 18oz bottles. The Company sells its products to regional retail chains and to a mix of independent mid-to-large range distributors who in turn sell to retail outlets, such as big chain supermarkets, mass merchants, convenience stores, restaurants and hotels, principally in the New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania markets, with expanding distribution in Florida, Virginia, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Nevada, Rhode Island and parts of the Midwest. As of June 30, 2017, the Company’s products are available in 27 states and in Canada and Latin America. The ALO Juice Business Asset Purchase Agreement On December 8, 2016, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with The Wilnah International, LLC (“Wilnah”). Pursuant to the agreement, the Company intended to acquire the intellectual property (“IP”) (trade names, formulas, recipes) for ALO Juice. The Company has not yet closed the asset purchase and is currently working with Wilnah to modify the agreement to a licensing arrangement. Seba Personal Guarantee On March 14, 2017, Mr. Ponce, former majority owner of Seba Distribution LLC (“Seba”), issued to the Company a personal guarantee in the amount of $467,444 in support of certain obligations of Seba that are owed to the Company. Liquidity and Going Concern The Company has been focused on the development of its brand and its infrastructure, as well as in the establishment of a network of distributors and qualified direct accounts. From inception, the Company has financed its operations through the issuance of debt and equity, and through utilizing trade credit with its vendors. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had cash of $241,361. As of June 30, 2017, the Company had working capital of $1,145,366. The Company incurred net losses of $4,225,195 and $7,679,717 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 respectively. As of June 30, 2017, the Company’s stockholders’ equity was $1,953,410. On January 27, 2017, the Company sold 376,340 shares of the Company’s common stock in a public offering at an average price of $4.02 per share. Of the shares sold, 300,000 were sold to the public at an offering price of $4.00 while the remaining 76,340 shares were sold to officers and directors of the Company at a price of $4.10 per share. The sale of common stock generated gross proceeds of $1,513,000 and net proceeds of $1,429,740 after deducting commissions and other offering expenses. On June 14, 2017, the Company sold 256,848 shares of the Company’s common stock in a public offering at an average price of $5.06 per share. Of the shares sold, 231,850 were sold to the public at an offering price of $5.00 while the remaining 24,998 shares were sold to officers and directors of the Company at a price of $5.60 per share. The sale of common stock generated gross proceeds of $1,299,250 and net proceeds of $1,259,415 after deducting commissions and other offering expenses. On July 6, 2017, the Company sold 448,160 shares of the Company’s common stock in a public offering at a price of $5.00 per share. Of the shares sold, 200,000 were sold to lead investors who, upon the purchase of $500,000 or more in shares, received (i) an additional number of shares of common stock equal to 7% of the total number of shares of common stock purchased by such lead investors in this offering (or an aggregate of 14,000 shares) and (ii) three-year warrants up to that number of shares of common stock equal to 20% of the total number of shares purchased by such lead investors in this offering (or warrants to purchase an aggregate of 40,000 shares). These warrants have an exercise price of $5.50 and are fully vested upon issuance. The sale of common stock generated gross proceeds of $2,240,800 and net proceeds of approximately $2,129,212 after deducting commissions and other offering expenses. Pursuant to a Credit and Security Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), the Company has a revolving credit facility in an amount up to $3,500,000, subject to approval by the lender (See Note 5). Historically, the Company has financed its operations through the raising of equity capital and through trade credit with its vendors. The Company’s ability to continue its operations and to pay its obligations when they become due is contingent upon the Company obtaining additional financing. Management’s plans include raising additional funds through equity offerings, debt financings, or other means. The Company believes that it will be able to raise sufficient additional capital to finance the Company’s planned operating activities. There are no assurances that the Company will be able to raise such capital on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. If the Company is unable to obtain sufficient amounts of additional capital, it may be required to reduce the scope of its planned market development activities, and/or consider reductions in personnel costs or other operating costs. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

Business Organization, Liquidity and Going Concern

NOTE 1 – BUSINESS ORGANIZATION, LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN

Business Organization

Long Island Iced Tea Corp, a Delaware corporation (“LIIT”), was formed on December 23, 2014. LIIT was formed in order to allow for the completion of mergers between Cullen Agricultural Holding Corp. (“Cullen”) and Long Island Brand Beverages LLC (“LIBB”). On December 31, 2014, LIIT entered into a merger agreement, as amended as of April 23, 2015, with Cullen, a public company, Cullen Merger Sub, Inc. (“Cullen Merger Sub”), LIBB Acquisition Sub, LLC (“LIBB Merger Sub”), LIBB and the founders of LIBB (“Founders”). Pursuant to the merger agreement, (a) Cullen Merger Sub was merged with and into Cullen, with Cullen surviving and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of LIIT and (b) LIBB Merger Sub was merged with and into LIBB, with LIBB surviving and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of LIIT (the “Mergers”). As a result of the Mergers which were consummated on May 27, 2015, LIIT consisted of its wholly owned subsidiaries, LIBB (its operating subsidiary) and Cullen and Cullen’s wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”).

Under the merger agreement, upon consummation of the Mergers, the former holders of the LIBB membership interests (the “LIBB members”) received 2,633,334 shares of common stock of LIIT (or approximately 63%).

For accounting purposes, the Mergers were treated as an acquisition of Cullen by LIBB and as a recapitalization of LIBB, as the former LIBB members held a large percentage of LIIT’s shares and exercised significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the consolidated entity and Cullen was a public shell company at the time of the transaction. Pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805-10-55-11 through 55-15, the merger or acquisition of a private operating company into a non-operating public shell with nominal assets is considered a capital transaction in substance rather than a business combination. As a result, the condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, and statements of cash flows of LIBB have been retroactively updated to reflect the recapitalization. Additionally, the historical condensed consolidated financial statements of LIBB are now reflected as those of the Company.
