The purpose of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A is to amend the financial statements and “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” to add accrued and unpaid salary to our CEO, Gregory Lambrecht. The remainder of the Original Report, including the financial statements and supplementary data, remains unchanged except for the inclusion of new certifications required by Rule 13a-14 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as required in connection with the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A.

We have made no attempt in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A to modify or update the disclosures presented in the Original Report other than as noted in the previous paragraph. Except as noted above, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original Report. Accordingly, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A should be read in conjunction with the Original Report, and the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) subsequent to the filing of the Original Report, including any amendments thereto.

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.

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

Plan of Operation

The Company was incorporated in Nevada in February 2021 as a spin-off from Singlepoint Inc. in April 2021. We offer nicotine-free and tobacco-free alternatives to traditional cigarettes and vaping products. Our manufacturers use state of the art manufacturing in the United States and a blend of all-natural ingredients to provide smokers aged 21+ an alternative to traditional cigarettes that does not contain nicotine or tobacco, and promote health benefits such as pain management, reduced anxiety and enhanced wakefulness. Our smokable hemp cigarettes are an alternative for customers that currently smoke or want to quit smoking nicotine. All our hemp cigarettes are manufactured with 100% premium hemp flower and are nicotine-free, tobacco-free and organically grown – free of pesticides and other contaminants. Our key customers comprise distributors and retail customers, including convenience stores, smoke shops and individual purchasers.

We are focused on increasing our retail footprint concentrating on regional expansion in addition to continuing to grow our online presence and retail distribution network. We sell our products directly online through our website, www.1606hemp.com, and ship them directly to anywhere within the United States. Our products are also sold in approximately 300 retail stores.

With our corporate headquarters located in Phoenix, AZ and our executive team experienced in tobacco sales, distribution, commercialization, and marketing, we believe our product “1606 Original Hemp” is positioned to become the market leader in the smokable industrial hemp cigarette marketplace.

We have released four primary flavor variants namely Original, Smooth, Menthol, and Mango. Original is a full-flavored product which has been developed to closely emulate the taste experience of a regular tobacco cigarette. Smooth has been developed to produce a flavor profile which is milder in taste. Menthol has been developed to mimic the taste profile of a mentholated tobacco cigarette. Mango has been developed to produce a product that appeals to consumers that want a flavored product. 1606 will market its products under the 1606 Hemp brand for the Original Hemp product and under Zero for the product that has no Marijuana smell. Through the application of a flavoring treatment, they can completely transform the raw material into a finished product that tastes and smells similar to tobacco when combusted. This material is referred to as Base Cigarette Material (“BCM”). Similarly, to fine-cut tobacco, BCM is derived entirely from plant matter, however BCM is fundamentally different from fine-cut tobacco in that it has no tobacco content whatsoever. As such, BCM contains no nicotine, is non-addictive, and undergoes substantially different processing than fine-cut tobacco. This process forms a significant part of the value of Zero brand and is a closely guarded trade secret.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2023 with the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022

Net Revenue. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we generated revenues of $304 and $4,382, respectively. The decrease in revenues was directly related to the decrease in sales of hemp cigarettes.

Cost of Goods Sold. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, cost of revenue was $3,556 and $1,472, respectively. The increase was directly related to distribution of product samples in an effort to expand distribution and increase the number of retail locations that carry our products for sale.

Gross Profit. As a result of the foregoing, we had a negative gross profit of $(3,252) for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared with a gross profit of $2,910 for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Operating Expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, total operating expenses were $530,412 and $124,481, respectively. The increase was primarily due to write-off of investments, higher legal and professional expenses related to regulatory filings and listing of our common stock, higher advertising and marketing spend associated with efforts to expand distribution of our product offerings and higher salaries and wages.

Net Loss. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, net loss was $533,664 and $121,571, respectively.  The increase in net loss was primarily due to higher operating expenses discussed above.

Comparison of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 with the Six Months June 30, 2022

Net Revenue. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we generated revenues of $1,474 and $9,302, respectively. The decrease in revenues was due primarily to the decrease in sales of hemp cigarettes.

Cost of Goods Sold. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, cost of revenue was $4,781 and $3,236, respectively. The increase was directly related to distribution of product samples in an effort to expand distribution and increase the number of retail locations that carry our products for sale.

Gross Profit. As a result of the foregoing, we had a negative gross profit of $(3,307) for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared with a gross profit of $6,066 for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Operating Expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, total operating expenses were $823,069 and $273,403, respectively. The increase was primarily due to write-off of investments, higher legal and professional expenses related to regulatory filings and listing of our common stock, higher advertising and marketing spend associated with efforts to expand distribution of our product offerings and higher salaries and wages.

Net Loss. For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, net loss was $826,376 and $267,337, respectively.  The increase in net loss was primarily due to higher operating expenses as discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2023, the Company has yet to achieve profitable operations, and while the Company hopes to achieve profitable operations in the future, if not it 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 the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s principal sources of liquidity have been cash provided by operating activities, as well as its ability to raise capital. The Company’s operating results for future periods are subject to numerous uncertainties and it is uncertain if the Company 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, the Company may not be able to achieve profitability. The Company’s ability to continue in existence is dependent on the Company’s 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). The Company plans to pay off current liabilities through sales and increasing revenue through sales of Company services and or products, or through financing activities as mentioned above, although there is no guarantee that the Company will ultimately do so.

Advances from Officer

During the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company borrowed $20,000 of additional funds from the Chief Executive Officer. Accordingly, the promissory note due to him increased from December 31, 2022 and totals $755,050. The note does not bear interest and is due in a lump sum payment on December 31, 2023.

Operating Activities

Cash used in operating activities – Net cash used in operating activities was $424,092 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily as a result of our net loss of $826,376, reduced by $193,003 for non-cash expense associated with grants of our common and Class A Preferred shares and $65,000 for the write-off of investments.  Net cash used in operating activities was $330,255 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily as a result of our net loss of $267,337.  

Investing Activities

Cash flow used in investing activities – Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 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 (see Note 5 of the Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements for further details).  The $21,500 related to additional funds advanced to one of the target companies for which the Company now has Notes Receivable.  There was no cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Financing Activities

Cash flow from financing activities – During the six months ended June 30, 2023, our financing activities provided cash of $432,500 primarily from the sale of the Company’s common stock. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, our financing activities provided cash of $340,000 resulting from additional borrowings from our Chief Executive Officer.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of 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 the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Notes to the Condensed 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.

Loss Contingencies

The Company is subject to various loss contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company considers the likelihood of loss or impairment of an asset or the incurrence of a liability, as well as its ability to reasonably estimate the amount of loss in determining loss contingencies. An estimated loss contingency is accrued when management concludes that it is probable that an asset has been impaired, or a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company regularly evaluates current information available to us to determine whether such accruals should be adjusted.

Income Taxes

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets (future tax benefits) and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the book carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the expected future tax return benefits or consequences of those differences, which are expected to be either deductible or taxable when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 of the notes to the condensed financial statements for discussion of Recent Accounting Pronouncements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

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

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

None.

Purchase of Significant Equipment

We have not previously, nor do we intend to purchase any significant equipment during the next twelve months.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K (§ 229.305(e)), the Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item as it is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1).

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 June 30, 2023. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our President and CEO and CFO, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2023 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:

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

None.

Except as discussed below are not presently a party to any material litigation, nor to the knowledge of management is any litigation threatened against us, which may materially affect us.
