NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2022
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1—BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of 1847 Holdings LLC (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q of Regulation S-X. They do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The December 31, 2021 consolidated balance sheet data were derived from audited financial statements but do not include all disclosures required by GAAP. However, except as disclosed herein, there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2022. The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with those consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the financial statements, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, have been made. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications within property and equipment, notes payable, and preferred shares have been made to prior period’s financial statements to conform to the current period financial statement presentation. There is no impact in total to the results of operations and cash flows in all periods presented.
Sequencing
Under ASC 815-40-35 (“ASC 815”), the Company has adopted a sequencing policy, whereby, in the event that reclassification of contracts from equity to assets or liabilities is necessary pursuant to ASC 815 due to the Company’s inability to demonstrate it has sufficient authorized shares as a result of certain securities with a potentially indeterminable number of shares, shares will be allocated on the basis of the earliest maturity date of potentially dilutive instruments first, with the earliest maturity date of grants receiving the first allocation of shares. Pursuant to ASC 815, issuances of securities to the Company’s employees and directors, or to compensate grantees in a share-based payment arrangement, are not subject to the sequencing policy.
NOTE 2—RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUCEMENTS
The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have minimal impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected loss methodology, which will result in more timely recognition of credit losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019. This pronouncement was amended under ASU 2019-10 to allow an extension on the adoption date for entities that qualify as a small reporting company. The Company has elected this extension and the effective date for the Company to adopt this standard will be for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company has not completed its assessment of the standard but does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06 Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts In An Entity’s Own Equity. ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for certain convertible instruments by removing the separation models for convertible debt with a cash conversion feature and for convertible instruments with a beneficial conversion feature. As a result, more convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. Additionally, ASU 2020-06 amends the diluted earnings per share calculation for convertible instruments by requiring the use of the if-converted method. The treasury stock method is no longer available. Entities may adopt the ASU 2020-06 using either a full or modified retrospective approach, and it is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2022.
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08 Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. This ASU amends ASC 805 to require acquiring entities to apply ASC 606 to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in business combinations. The ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. This ASU should be applied prospectively to acquisitions occurring on or after the effective date of December 15, 2022, and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2022. The adoption of this standard does not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3—LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN ASSESSMENT
Management assesses liquidity and going concern uncertainty in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements to determine whether there is sufficient cash on hand and working capital, including available borrowings on loans, to operate for a period of at least one year from the date the consolidated financial statements are issued or available to be issued, which is referred to as the “look-forward period”, as defined in GAAP. As part of this assessment, based on conditions that are known and reasonably knowable to management, management will consider various scenarios, forecasts, projections, estimates and will make certain key assumptions, including the timing and nature of projected cash expenditures or programs, its ability to delay or curtail expenditures or programs and its ability to raise additional capital, if necessary, among other factors. Based on this assessment, as necessary or applicable, management makes certain assumptions around implementing curtailments or delays in the nature and timing of programs and expenditures to the extent it deems probable those implementations can be achieved and management has the proper authority to execute them within the look-forward period.
As of March 31, 2022, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,638,924. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company incurred operating income of $69,470 (before deducting losses attributable to non-controlling interests), cash flows used in operations of $536,260, and negative working capital of $924,324. The Company has generated operating losses since its inception and has relied on cash on hand, sales of securities, external bank lines of credit, and issuance of third-party and related party debt to support cashflow from operations.
Management has prepared estimates of operations for fiscal year 2022 and 2023 believes that sufficient funds will be generated from operations to fund its operations and to service its debt obligations for one year from the date of the filing of these condensed consolidated financial statements, which indicate improved operations and the Company’s ability to continue operations as a going concern. The impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business has been considered in these assumptions; however, it is too early to know the full impact of COVID-19 or its timing on a return to more normal operations.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under which the Company is expected to be able to realize its assets and satisfy its liabilities in the normal course of business. Management believes that based on relevant conditions and events that are known and reasonably knowable that its forecasts for one year from the date of the filing of these condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company has contingency plans to reduce or defer expenses and cash outlays should operations not improve in the look forward period.

Series A Senior Convertible Preferred Shares
On September 30, 2020, the Company executed a share designation, which was amended on November 20, 2020, March 26, 2021 and September 29, 2021, to designate 4,450,460 of its shares as series A senior convertible preferred shares. Following is a description of the rights of the series A senior convertible preferred shares.
Ranking. The series A senior convertible preferred shares rank, with respect to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets upon liquidation, (i) senior to all common shares, allocation shares, and each other class or series that is not expressly made senior to or on parity with the series A senior convertible preferred shares; (ii) on parity with the series B senior convertible preferred shares and each other class or series that is not expressly subordinated or made senior to the series A senior convertible preferred shares; and (iii) junior to all indebtedness and other liabilities with respect to assets available to satisfy claims against the Company and each other class or series that is expressly made senior to the series A senior convertible preferred shares.
Dividend Rights. Holders of series A senior convertible preferred shares are entitled to dividends at a rate per annum of 14.0% of the stated value ($2.00 per share, subject to adjustment). Dividends shall accrue from day to day, whether or not declared, and shall be cumulative. Dividends shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each dividend payment date in cash or common shares at the Company’s discretion. Dividends payable in common shares shall be calculated based on a price equal to eighty percent (80%) of the volume weighted average price for the common shares on the Company’s principal trading market (the “VWAP”) during the five (5) trading days immediately prior to the applicable dividend payment date; provided, however, that if the common shares are not registered, and Rule 144 rulemaking referred to below is effective on the payment date, the dividends payable in common shares shall be calculated based upon the fixed price of $1.57; provided further, that the Company may only elect to pay dividends in common shares based upon such fixed price if the VWAP for the five (5) trading days immediately prior to the applicable dividend payment date is $1.57 or higher.
Liquidation Rights. Subject to the rights of creditors and the holders of any senior securities or parity securities (in each case, as defined in the share designation), upon any liquidation of the Company or its subsidiaries, before any payment or distribution of the assets of the Company (whether capital or surplus) shall be made to or set apart for the holders of securities that are junior to the series A senior convertible preferred shares as to the distribution of assets on any liquidation of the Company, including the common shares and allocation shares, each holder of outstanding series A senior convertible preferred shares shall be entitled to receive an amount of cash equal to 115% of the stated value plus an amount of cash equal to all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends thereon (whether or not declared) to, but not including the date of final distribution to such holders. If, upon any liquidation, the assets, or proceeds thereof, distributable among the holders of the series A senior convertible preferred shares shall be insufficient to pay in full the preferential amount payable to the holders of the series A senior convertible preferred shares and liquidating payments on any other shares of any class or series of parity securities as to the distribution of assets on any liquidation, then such assets, or the proceeds thereof, shall be distributed among the holders of series A senior convertible preferred shares and any such other parity securities ratably in accordance with the respective amounts that would be payable on such series A senior convertible preferred shares and any such other parity securities if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full.

Each series A senior convertible preferred share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time and from time to time, into such number of fully paid and nonassessable common shares determined by dividing the stated value ($2.00 per share), plus the value of the accrued, but unpaid, dividends thereon, by a conversion price of $1.75 per share (subject to adjustment); provided that in no event shall the holder of any series A senior convertible preferred shares be entitled to convert any number of series A senior convertible preferred shares that upon conversion the sum of (i) the number of common shares beneficially owned by the holder and its affiliates and (ii) the number of common shares issuable upon the conversion of the series A senior convertible preferred shares with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the then outstanding common shares. This limitation may be waived (up to a maximum of 9.99%) by the holder and in its sole discretion, upon not less than sixty-one (61) days’ prior notice to the Company.
Redemption Rights. The Company may redeem in whole, or upon the written consent of the Requisite Holders and in the manner provided for in such written consent, in part, the series A senior convertible preferred shares by paying in cash therefore a sum equal to 115% of the stated value plus the amount of accrued and unpaid plus any other amounts due pursuant to the terms of the series A senior convertible preferred shares. On October 12, 2021, the Company redeemed 2,632,278 series A senior convertible preferred shares for a total redemption price, including dividends through such date, of $6,395,645.
Adjustments. The share designation contains standard adjustments to the conversion price in the event of any share splits, share combinations, share reclassifications, dividends paid in common shares, sales of substantially all of the Company’s assets, mergers, consolidations or similar transactions. In addition, the share designation provides that if, but only if, the Requisite Holders provide the Company with at least ten (10) business day’s prior written notice, then, from and after the date of such notice, the stated dividend rate, the stated value and the conversion price shall automatically adjust as follows:
On the first day of the 12th month following the issuance date of any series A senior convertible preferred shares, the stated dividend rate shall automatically increase by five percent (5.0%) per annum and the conversion price shall automatically adjust to the lower of the (i) initial conversion price and (ii) the price equal to the lowest VWAP of the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding such date.
On the first day of the 24th month following the issuance date of any series A senior convertible preferred shares, the stated dividend rate shall automatically increase by an additional five percent (5.0%) per annum, the stated value shall automatically increase by ten percent (10%) and the conversion price shall automatically adjust to the lower of the (i) initial conversion price and (ii) the price equal to the lowest VWAP of the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding such date.

On the first day of the 36th month following the issuance date of any series A senior convertible preferred shares, the stated dividend rate shall automatically increase by an additional five percent (5.0%) per annum, the stated value shall automatically increase by ten percent (10%) and the conversion price shall automatically adjust to the lower of the (i) initial conversion price and (ii) the price equal to the lowest VWAP of the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the third adjustment date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the conversion price for purposes of the adjustments above shall not be adjusted to a number that is below $0.0075. In addition, if any legislation or rules are adopted whereby the holding period of securities for purposes of Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for convertible securities that convert at market-adjusted rates is increased resulting in a longer holding period for convertible securities like the series A senior convertible preferred shares and the unavailability at the time of conversion of Rule 144, the pricing provisions that are based upon the lowest VWAP of the previous ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the relevant adjustment date shall be removed unless the common shares issuable upon conversion are then registered under an effective registration statement.
Additional Equity Interest. On the third adjustment date set forth above, the Company is required to cause Kyle’s and Wolo to issue to the holders of series A senior convertible preferred shares, on a pro rata basis, a ten percent (10%) equity stake Kyle’s and/or Wolo. The holders of series A senior convertible preferred shares issued in connection with the financing to complete the acquisition of Kyle’s shall receive the equity stake in Kyle’s and the holders of series A senior convertible preferred shares issued in connection with the financing to complete the acquisition of Wolo shall receive the equity stake in Wolo. The Company is required to cause Kyle’s and Wolo to grant to the holders of the series A senior convertible preferred shares upon the issuance to them of such equity interest a right to receive an additional number of shares of common stock of Kyle’s or Wolo if Kyle’s or Wolo issues to any third-party equity securities at a price below the acquisition price (as defined below). Such additional number of shares of common stock of Kyle’s or Wolo to be issued in such instance shall be equal to a number of shares of common stock of Kyle’s or Wolo which, when added to the number of shares of common stock of Kyle’s or Wolo constituting the initial additional equity interest, would be equal to the total number of shares of common stock which would have been issued to a holder of series A senior convertible preferred shares if the price per share of common stock of Kyle’s or Wolo was equivalent to the price per equity security paid by such third-party in Kyle’s or Wolo. For purposes of this provision, “acquisition price” means the price per share of Kyle’s and Wolo that was paid by the Company upon the acquisition of Kyle’s and Wolo, respectively.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had 1,684,849 and 1,818,182 series A senior convertible preferred shares issued and outstanding, respectively.
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company accrued dividends attributable to the series A senior convertible preferred shares in the amount of $121,455 and paid prior period accrued dividends of $128,318.

Dividend Rights. Holders of series B senior convertible preferred shares are entitled to dividends at a rate per annum of 14.0% of the stated value ($3.00 per share, subject to adjustment). Dividends shall accrue from day to day, whether or not declared, and shall be cumulative. Dividends shall be payable quarterly in arrears on each dividend payment date in cash or common shares at the Company’s discretion. Dividends payable in common shares shall be calculated based on a price equal to eighty percent (80%) of the VWAP during the five (5) trading days immediately prior to the applicable dividend payment date; provided, however, that if the common shares are not registered, and rulemaking regarding the Rule 144 holding period referred to below is effective on the payment date, the dividends payable in common shares shall be calculated based upon the fixed price of $2.70; provided further, that the Company may only elect to pay dividends in common shares based upon such fixed price if the VWAP for the five (5) trading days immediately prior to the applicable dividend payment date is $2.70 or higher.
Liquidation Rights. Subject to the rights of creditors and the holders of any senior securities or parity securities (in each case, as defined in the share designation), upon any liquidation of the Company or its subsidiaries, before any payment or distribution of the assets of the Company (whether capital or surplus) shall be made to or set apart for the holders of securities that are junior to the series B senior convertible preferred shares as to the distribution of assets on any liquidation of the Company, including the common shares and allocation shares, each holder of outstanding series B senior convertible preferred shares shall be entitled to receive an amount of cash equal to 115% of the stated value plus an amount of cash equal to all accumulated accrued and unpaid dividends thereon (whether or not declared) to, but not including the date of final distribution to such holders. If, upon any liquidation, the assets, or proceeds thereof, distributable among the holders of the series B senior convertible preferred shares shall be insufficient to pay in full the preferential amount payable to the holders of the series B senior convertible preferred shares and liquidating payments on any other shares of any class or series of parity securities as to the distribution of assets on any liquidation, then such assets, or the proceeds thereof, shall be distributed among the holders of series B senior convertible preferred shares and any such other parity securities ratably in accordance with the respective amounts that would be payable on such series B senior convertible preferred shares and any such other parity securities if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full.
Voting Rights. The series B senior convertible preferred shares do not have any voting rights; provided that, so long as any series B senior convertible preferred shares are outstanding, the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of series B senior convertible preferred shares, voting as a separate class, shall be necessary for approving, effecting or validating (i) any amendment, alteration or repeal of any of the provisions of the share designation or (ii) the Company’s creation or issuance of any parity securities or any senior securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such vote of the holders shall not be required in connection with the issuance of parity securities or senior securities if, and so long as, the proceeds resulting from the issuance of such securities are used to redeem in full the outstanding series B senior convertible preferred shares.
Conversion Rights. Each series B senior convertible preferred share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time and from time to time, into such number of fully paid and nonassessable common shares determined by dividing the stated value ($3.00 per share), plus the value of the accrued, but unpaid, dividends thereon, by the conversion price of $3.00 per share (subject to adjustments); provided that in no event shall the holder of any series B senior convertible preferred shares be entitled to convert any number of series B senior convertible preferred shares that upon conversion the sum of (i) the number of common shares beneficially owned by the holder and its affiliates and (ii) the number of common shares issuable upon the conversion of the series B senior convertible preferred shares with respect to which the determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial ownership by the holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the then outstanding common shares. This limitation may be waived (up to a maximum of 9.99%) by the holder and in its sole discretion, upon not less than sixty-one (61) days’ prior notice to the Company.
Redemption Rights. The Company may redeem in whole (but not in part) the series B senior convertible preferred shares by paying in cash therefore a sum equal to 115% of the stated value plus the amount of accrued and unpaid dividends and any other amounts due pursuant to the terms of the series B senior convertible preferred shares.

Adjustments. The share designation contains standard adjustments to the conversion price in the event of any share splits, share combinations, share reclassifications, dividends paid in common shares, sales of substantially all of the Company’s assets, mergers, consolidations or similar transactions. In addition, the share designation provides that the stated dividend rate, the stated value and the conversion price shall automatically adjust as follows:
On the first day of the 12th month following the issuance of the first series B senior convertible preferred share, the stated dividend rate shall automatically increase by five percent (5.0%) per annum and the conversion price shall automatically adjust to the lower of the (i) initial conversion price and (ii) the price equal to the lowest VWAP of the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding such date.
On the first day of the 24th month following the issuance of the first series B senior convertible preferred share, the stated dividend rate shall automatically increase by an additional five percent (5.0%) per annum, the stated value shall automatically increase by ten percent (10%) and the conversion price shall automatically adjust to the lower of the (i) initial conversion price and (ii) the price equal to the lowest VWAP of the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding such date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the conversion price for purposes of the adjustments above shall not be adjusted to a number that is below $0.0075 per share (subject to adjustment for splits or dividends of the common shares). In addition, if any legislation or rules are adopted whereby the holding period of securities for purposes of Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for convertible securities that convert at market-adjusted rates is increased resulting in a longer holding period for convertible securities like the series B senior convertible preferred shares and the unavailability at the time of conversion of Rule 144, the pricing provisions that are based upon the lowest VWAP of the previous ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the relevant adjustment date shall be removed unless the common shares issuable upon conversion are then registered under an effective registration statement.
On February 24, 2022, the Company sold an aggregate of 320,333 units, at a price of $3.00 per unit, for aggregate gross proceeds of $961,000. On March 24, 2022, the Company sold an additional 106,666 units for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $320,000. The Company had issuance costs relating to the offering of approximately $15,000, resulting in net proceeds of $1,266,000. Each unit consists of one (1) series B senior convertible preferred share and a three-year warrant to purchase one (1) common share at an exercise price of $3.00 per common share (subject to adjustment), which may be exercised on a cashless basis under certain circumstances. The embedded conversion options of the series B senior convertible preferred shares and warrants were clearly and closely related to the equity host and did not require bifurcation. The $1,266,000 of net proceeds were allocated on a relative fair value basis of $1,113,650 to the series B preferred shares and $152,350 to the warrants. The series B preferred shares fair value was derived using an Option Pricing Method and the warrants fair value was derived using a Monte Carlo Simulation Model.
As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had 426,999 and 0 series B senior convertible preferred shares issued and outstanding, respectively.
During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company accrued dividends attributable to the series B senior convertible preferred shares in the amount of $13,760.
Mezzanine Equity Classification
We applied the guidance in ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” (“ASC 815”), in order to determine the appropriate classification for both the series A senior convertible preferred shares and the series B senior convertible preferred shares.

(UNAUDITED)
ASC 480 requires equity instruments to be evaluated on an ongoing basis for mezzanine equity (temporary equity) vs permanent equity classification. As a result of the maximum number of common shares that may be issuable (upon conversion of the preferred securities) exceeded the number of authorized but unissued common shares available, temporary equity classification is required. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were 1,684,849 and 1,818,182 series A senior convertible preferred shares presented in mezzanine equity, respectively. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were 426,999 and 0 series B senior convertible preferred shares presented in mezzanine equity, respectively.
NOTE 12—SHAREHOLDERS’ DEFICIT
Common Shares
As of March 31, 2022, the Company was authorized to issue 500,000,000 common shares. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had 4,995,232 and 4,842,851 common shares issued and outstanding, respectively.
On February 16, 2022, the Company issued 152,851 common shares upon the conversion of 133,333 series A senior convertible preferred shares.
On March 23, 2022, the Company declared a common share dividend of $0.05 per share, or $249,762, to shareholders of record as of March 31, 2022. This dividend was paid on April 15, 2022.
Warrants
On February 24, 2022, the Company sold an aggregate of 320,333 units, at a price of $3.00 per unit, for aggregate gross proceeds of $961,000. On March 24, 2022, the Company sold an additional 106,666 units for aggregate gross proceeds of $320,000. Each unit consists of one (1) series B senior convertible preferred share and a three-year warrant to purchase one (1) common share at an exercise price of $3.00 per common share (subject to adjustment). Accordingly, a portion of the proceeds were allocated to the warrant based on its relative fair value using the Geometric Brownian Motion Stock Path Monte Carlo Simulation. The assumptions used in the model were as follows: (i) dividend yield of 0%; (ii) expected volatility of 51.81%; (iii) weighted average risk-free interest rate of 0.31%; (iv) expected life of three years; (v) estimated fair value of the common shares of $1.94 per share; and (vi) various probability assumptions related to redemption, calls and price resets. The fair value of the warrants was $379,533 or $0.89 per warrant, resulting in the amount allocated to the warrants, based on their relative fair of $152,350, which was recorded as additional paid in capital.
The warrants allow the holder to purchase one (1) common share at an exercise price of $3.00 per common share (subject to adjustment including upon any future equity offering with a lower exercise price), which may be exercised on a cashless basis under certain circumstances. The Company may force the exercise of the warrants at any time after the one year anniversary of the date of the warrants, if (i) the Company is listed on a national securities exchange or the over-the-counter market, (ii) the underlying common shares are registered or the holder of the warrant otherwise has the ability to trade the underlying common shares without restriction, (iii) the 30-day volume-weighted daily average price of the common shares exceeds 200% of the exercise price, as adjusted, and (iv) the average daily trading volume is at least 100,000 common shares during such 30-day period. The Company may redeem the warrants held by any holder in whole (but not in part) by paying in cash to such holder as follows: (i) $0.50 per share then underlying the warrant if within the first twelve (12) months of issuance; (ii) $1.00 per share then underlying the warrant if after the first twelve (12) months, but before twenty-four (24) months of issuance; and (iii) $1.50 per share then underlying the warrant if after twenty-four months, but before thirty-six (36) months.
Below is a table summarizing the changes in warrants outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2022:

Overview
We are an acquisition holding company focused on acquiring and managing a group of small businesses, which we characterize as those that have an enterprise value of less than $50 million, in a variety of different industries headquartered in North America. To date, we have completed six acquisitions and subsequently spun off two of the acquired companies.
On May 28, 2020, our subsidiary 1847 Asien Inc. (“1847 Asien”) acquired Asien’s Appliance, Inc., a California corporation (“Asien’s”). Asien’s has been in business since 1948 serving the North Bay area of Sonoma County, California. It provides a wide variety of appliance services, including sales, delivery/installation, in-home service and repair, extended warranties, and financing. Its main focus is delivering personal sales and exceptional service to its customers at competitive prices.
On September 30, 2020, our subsidiary 1847 Cabinet Inc. (“1847 Cabinet”) acquired Kyle’s Custom Wood Shop, Inc., an Idaho corporation (“Kyle’s”). Kyle’s is a leading custom cabinetry maker servicing contractors and homeowners since 1976 in Boise, Idaho and the surrounding area. Kyle’s focuses on designing, building, and installing custom cabinetry primarily for custom and semi-custom builders.
On March 30, 2021, our subsidiary 1847 Wolo Inc. (“1847 Wolo”) acquired Wolo Mfg. Corp., a New York corporation, and Wolo Industrial Horn & Signal, Inc., a New York corporation (together, “Wolo”). Headquartered in Deer Park, New York and founded in 1965, Wolo designs and sells horn and safety products (electric, air, truck, marine, motorcycle and industrial equipment), and offers vehicle emergency and safety warning lights for cars, trucks, industrial equipment and emergency vehicles.
On October 8, 2021, our subsidiary 1847 Cabinet acquired High Mountain Door & Trim Inc., a Nevada corporation (“High Mountain”), and Sierra Homes, LLC d/b/a Innovative Cabinets & Design, a Nevada limited liability company (“Innovative Cabinets”). Headquartered in Reno, Nevada and founded in 2014, High Mountain specializes in all aspects of finished carpentry products and services, including doors, door frames, base boards, crown molding, cabinetry, bathroom sinks and cabinets, bookcases, built-in closets, and fireplace mantles, among others, working primarily with large homebuilders of single-family homes and commercial and multi-family developers. Innovative Cabinets is headquartered in Reno, Nevada and was founded in 2008. It specializes in custom cabinetry and countertops for a client base consisting of single-family homeowners, builders of multi-family homes, as well as commercial clients.
Our first acquisition was on March 3, 2017, pursuant to which our subsidiary 1847 Neese Inc. (“1847 Neese”) acquired Neese, Inc., a business specializing in providing a wide range of land application services and selling equipment and parts in Grand Junction, Iowa. On April 19, 2021, we sold 1847 Neese back to the original owners.
On April 5, 2019, our subsidiary 1847 Goedeker Inc. (“1847 Goedeker”) acquired substantially all of the assets of Goedeker Television Co., a one-stop e-commerce destination for home furnishings, including appliances, furniture, home goods and related products. On October 23, 2020, we distributed all of the shares of 1847 Goedeker that we held to our shareholders, so we no longer own 1847 Goedeker.
Through our structure, we offer investors an opportunity to participate in the ownership and growth of a portfolio of businesses that traditionally have been owned and managed by private equity firms, private individuals or families, financial institutions or large conglomerates. We believe that our management and acquisition strategies will allow us to achieve our goals to grow regular distributions to our common shareholders and increasing common shareholder value over time.
21
We seek to acquire controlling interests in small businesses that we believe operate in industries with long-term macroeconomic growth opportunities, and that have positive and stable earnings and cash flows, face minimal threats of technological or competitive obsolescence and have strong management teams largely in place. We believe that private company operators and corporate parents looking to sell their businesses will consider us to be an attractive purchaser of their businesses. We make these businesses our majority-owned subsidiaries and actively manage and grow such businesses. We expect to improve our businesses over the long term through organic growth opportunities, add-on acquisitions and operational improvements.
Recent Developments
On April 20, 2022, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with Ellery W. Roberts, our Chief Executive Officer, pursuant to which we sold 28,333 units, at a price of $3.00 per unit, for aggregate gross proceeds of $85,000. On May 12, 2022, we sold an additional 16,667 units to Mr. Roberts for aggregate gross proceeds of $50,000.

Starting in late 2019, a novel strain of the coronavirus, or COVID-19, began to rapidly spread around the world and every state in the United States. Most states and cities have at various times instituted quarantines, restrictions on travel, “stay at home” rules, social distancing measures and restrictions on the types of businesses that could continue to operate, as well as guidance in response to the pandemic and the need to contain it. At this time, there continues to be significant volatility and uncertainty relating to the full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and the various responses to it will impact our business, operations and financial results.
Asien’s was qualified as an essential business and remained open during the pandemic, with certain occupancy restrictions at times, so it did not experience any meaningful business interruption. However, Asien’s is dependent upon suppliers to provide it with all of the products that its sells. The pandemic has impacted and may continue to impact suppliers and manufacturers of certain of its products. As a result, Asien’s has faced and may continue to face delays or difficulty sourcing certain products, which could negatively affect its business and financial results. Even if Asien’s is able to find alternate sources for such products, they may cost more, which could adversely impact Asien’s profitability and financial condition.
Kyle’s was also qualified as an essential business and remained open during the pandemic, with certain occupancy restrictions at times, so it did not experience any meaningful business interruption. However, certain key customers of Kyle’s elected to either temporarily stop building homes or delayed their building process, particularly during the second quarter of 2020, which adversely affected Kyle’s sales. Further, early on during the pandemic, several of Kyle’s employees had taken time off because of medical issues, and some of them did not return to employment. Kyle’s has been hiring and training new employees to replace lost productivity because of the aforementioned loss of employees. Kyle’s did not experience any meaningful business interruption related to any of its key suppliers; although recently, potentially as a result of the pandemic and resulting impact, Kyle’s has seen price increases in certain key raw materials such as wood products and hardware. These increases may negatively affect Kyle’s profitability and financial condition. If the pace of the pandemic does not continue to slow, it may continue to negatively affect Kyle’s ability to generate sales opportunities and to hire productive employees, as well as impact the cost of raw materials. Therefore, Kyle’s business operations may experience further delays and experience lost sales opportunities and increased costs, which could further adversely impact Kyle’s profitability and financial condition.
High Mountain was qualified as an essential business and remained open during the pandemic. As it followed both federal and Nevada state guidelines regarding occupancy restrictions, it did not experience significant business disruptions, although it did experience some loss of productivity due to employee absences. High Mountain continues to comply with Nevada state and CDC guidelines regarding workplace safety.
Innovative Cabinets was also qualified as an essential business and thus remained open during the pandemic, while complying with federal and Nevada state guidelines regarding occupancy restrictions. However, since a substantive amount of its materials come from Asia, where its manufacturing network is located, Innovative Cabinets did experience longer supply chain lead-times and higher logistics costs. It has been exploring alternative sourcing opportunities. Given the prevailing market conditions for building supplies and materials, it may continue to experience supply chain issues and higher supply costs, which could adversely impact its profitability and financial condition.
22
Wolo qualified as an essential business and remained open during the pandemic. At no time during the pandemic did it experience an internal contamination forcing it to stop its business. The pandemic has had a dramatic impact on Wolo’s supply chain as it has on others in the automotive aftermarket. Approximately 90% of Wolo’s vendor base is located in China. The pandemic issues impacting ports in the U.S. due to lack of personnel has had a ripple effect on Chinese suppliers. Containers are slow to be emptied in the U.S., causing a backlog of ships waiting to get into ports and limiting containers and ships returning to China. The lack of containers and available space on ships has escalated shipping costs by over 300% from 2020. Costs for raw materials have also started to increase due to availability. Wolo cannot absorb these increases and began passing on a price increase to customers starting June 1, 2021, although the effective date may be later for some customers. We believe that this is an industry-wide issue and that it should not put Wolo in an unfavorable pricing position.
The spread of COVID-19 has also adversely impacted global economic activity and has contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets. The pandemic has resulted, and may continue to result, in a significant disruption of global financial markets, which may reduce our ability to access capital in the future, which could negatively affect our liquidity.
The extent to which the pandemic may impact our results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted as of the date of this report, including the effectiveness of vaccines and other treatments for COVID-19, and other new information that may emerge concerning the severity of the pandemic and steps taken to contain the pandemic or treat its impact, among others. Nevertheless, the pandemic and the current financial, economic and capital markets environment, and future developments in the global supply chain and other areas present material uncertainty and risk with respect to our performance, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1,638,924. To date, we have financed our operations primarily through revenue generated from operations, cash proceeds from financing activities, borrowings, and equity contributions by our shareholders.
Although we do not believe that we will require additional cash to continue our operations over the next twelve months, we do believe additional funds are required to execute our business plan and our strategy of acquiring additional businesses. The funds required to execute our business plan will depend on the size, capital structure and purchase price consideration that the seller of a target business deems acceptable in a given transaction. The amount of funds needed to execute our business plan also depends on what portion of the purchase price of a target business the seller of that business is willing to take in the form of seller notes or our equity or equity in one of our subsidiaries. Given these factors, we believe that the amount of outside additional capital necessary to execute our business plan on the low end (assuming target company sellers accept a significant portion of the purchase price in the form of seller notes or our equity or equity in one of our subsidiaries) ranges between $100,000 to $250,000. If, and to the extent, that sellers are unwilling to accept a significant portion of the purchase price in seller notes and equity, then the cash required to execute our business plan could be as much as $5,000,000 . We will seek growth as funds become available from cash flow, borrowings, additional capital raised privately or publicly, or seller retained financing.
27
Our primary use of funds will be for future acquisitions, public company expenses including regular distributions to our shareholders, investments in future acquisitions, payments to the Manager pursuant to the management services agreement, potential payment of profit allocation to the Manager and potential put price to the Manager in respect of the allocation shares it owns. The management fee, expenses, potential profit allocation and potential put price are paid before distributions to shareholders and may be significant and exceed the funds we hold, which may require us to dispose of assets or incur debt to fund such expenditures. See Item 1. “Business—Our Manager” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 for more information concerning the management fee, the profit allocation and put price.
The amount of management fee paid to the Manager by us is reduced by the aggregate amount of any offsetting management fees, if any, received by the Manager from any of our businesses. As a result, the management fee paid to the Manager may fluctuate from quarter to quarter. The amount of management fee paid to the Manager may represent a significant cash obligation. In this respect, the payment of the management fee will reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to shareholders.
The Manager, as holder of 100% of our allocation shares, is entitled to receive a twenty percent (20%) profit allocation as a form of preferred equity distribution, subject to an annual hurdle rate of eight percent (8%), as follows. Upon the sale of a company subsidiary, the Manager will be paid a profit allocation if the sum of (i) the excess of the gain on the sale of such subsidiary over a high water mark plus (ii) the subsidiary’s net income since its acquisition by the Company exceeds the 8% hurdle rate. The 8% hurdle rate is the product of (i) a 2% rate per quarter, multiplied by (ii) the number of quarters such subsidiary was held by the Company, multiplied by (iii) the subsidiary’s average share (determined based on gross assets, generally) of our consolidated net equity (determined according to United States generally accepted accounting principles with certain adjustments). In certain circumstances, after a subsidiary has been held for at least 5 years, the Manager may also trigger a profit allocation with respect to such subsidiary (determined based solely on the subsidiary’s net income since its acquisition). The amount of profit allocation may represent a significant cash payment and is senior in right to payments of distributions to our shareholders. Therefore, the amount of profit allocation paid, when paid, will reduce the amount of cash available to us for our operating and investing activities, including future acquisitions. See Item 1. “Business—Our Manager—Our Manager as an Equity Holder—Manager’s Profit Allocation” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 for more information on the calculation of the profit allocation.
Our operating agreement also contains a supplemental put provision, which gives the Manager the right, subject to certain conditions, to cause us to purchase the allocation shares then owned by the Manager upon termination of the management services agreement. The amount of put price under the supplemental put provision is determined by assuming all of our subsidiaries are sold at that time for their fair market value and then calculating the amount of profit allocation would be payable in such a case. If the management services agreement is terminated for any reason other than the Manager’s resignation, the payment to the Manager could be as much as twice the amount of such hypothetical profit allocation. As is the case with profit allocation, the calculation of the put price is complex and based on many factors that cannot be predicted with any certainty at this time. See Item 1. “Business—Our Manager—Our Manager as an Equity Holder—Supplemental Put Provision” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 for more information on the calculation of the put price. The put price obligation, if the Manager exercises its put right, will represent a significant cash payment and is senior in right to payments of distributions to our shareholders. Therefore, the amount of put price will reduce the amount of cash available to us for our operating and investing activities, including future acquisitions.

Debt
Secured Convertible Promissory Notes
On October 8, 2021, we and each of our subsidiaries 1847 Asien, 1847 Wolo, 1847 Cabinet, Asien’s, Wolo, Kyle’s, High Mountain and Innovative Cabinets, entered into a note purchase agreement with two institutional investors, including Leonite, pursuant to which we issued to these purchasers secured convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $24,860,000. The notes contain an aggregate original issue discount of $497,200. As a result, the total purchase price was $24,362,800. After payment of expenses of $617,825, we received net proceeds of $23,744,975, of which $10,687,500 was used to fund the cash portion of the purchase price for the acquisition of High Mountain and Innovative Cabinets. In addition, as consideration for the financing, we granted the financing agent 750,000 warrants with a fair value of $956,526 and 7.5% interest in High Mountain and Innovative Cabinets which had a fair value of $1,146,803. The agent fees were reflected as a discount against the convertible note payable with the warrants being included in additional paid in capital and the equity interest being including within noncontrolling interest on the consolidated balance sheet. The remaining principal balance of the notes at March 31, 2022 is $21,948,421, net of debt discounts of $2,911,579, and they have accrued interest of $489,698.
The notes bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (i) 4.75% plus the U.S. Prime Rate that appears in The Wall Street Journal from time to time or (ii) 8%; provided that, upon an event of default (as defined in the notes), such rate shall increase to 24% or the maximum legal rate. Payments of interest only, computed at such rate on the outstanding principal amount, will be due and payable quarterly in arrears commencing on January 1, 2022 and continuing on the first day of each calendar quarter thereafter through and including the maturity date, October 8, 2026.
We may voluntarily prepay the notes in whole or in part upon payment of a prepayment fee in an amount equal to 10% of the principal and interest paid in connection with such prepayment. In addition, immediately upon receipt by the Company or any subsidiary of any proceeds from any issuance of indebtedness (other than certain permitted indebtedness), any proceeds of any sale or disposition by the Company or any subsidiary of any of the collateral or any of its respective assets (other than asset sales or dispositions in the ordinary course of business which are permitted by the note purchase agreement), or any proceeds from any casualty insurance policies or eminent domain, condemnation or similar proceedings, we must prepay the notes in an amount equal to all such proceeds, net of reasonable and customary transaction costs, fees and expenses properly attributable to such transaction and payable by the Company or a subsidiary in connection therewith (in each case, paid to non-affiliates).
The holders of the notes may, in their sole discretion, elect to convert any outstanding and unpaid principal portion of the notes, and any accrued but unpaid interest on such portion, into our common shares at a conversion price equal to $2.50 (subject to standard adjustments, including a full ratchet antidilution adjustment); provided that the notes contain certain beneficial ownership limitations.
Pursuant to the terms of the notes, until the date that is eighteen (18) months after the issuance date of the notes, the holders shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in any securities offering other than a permitted issuance (as defined in the note purchase agreement) in an amount of up to the original principal amount of the notes. In addition, the holders shall have the right of first refusal to participate in any issuance of indebtedness until the notes have been terminated; provided, however, that this right of first refusal shall not apply to permitted issuances.
The note purchase agreement and the notes contain customary representations, warranties, affirmative and negative financial and other covenants and events of default for loans of this type. The notes are guaranteed by each subsidiary and are secured by a first priority security interest in all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries.

6% Subordinated Convertible Promissory Notes
A portion of the purchase price for the acquisition of High Mountain and Innovative Cabinets on October 8, 2021 was paid by the issuance of 6% subordinated convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $5,880,345 by 1847 Cabinet to the sellers of High Mountain and Innovative Cabinets. The remaining principal balance of the notes at March 31, 2022 is $4,931,608, net of debt discount at $948,738, and they have accrued interest of $196,468.
The notes bear interest at a rate of six percent (6%) per annum and are due and payable on October 8, 2024; provided that upon an event of default (as defined in the notes), such interest rate shall increase to ten percent (10%) per annum. 1847 Cabinet may prepay the notes in whole or in part, without penalty or premium, upon ten (10) business days prior written notice to the holders of the notes.
At any time prior to October 8, 2022, the holders may, in their sole discretion, elect to convert up to twenty percent (20%) of the original principal amount of the notes and all accrued, but unpaid, interest into such number of shares of the common stock of 1847 Cabinet determined by dividing the amount to be converted by a conversion price determined by dividing (i) the fair market value of 1847 Cabinet (determined in accordance with the notes) by (ii) the number of shares of 1847 Cabinet outstanding on a fully diluted basis. In addition, on October 8, 2021, we entered into an exchange agreement with the holders, pursuant to which we granted them the right to exchange all of the principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest under the notes or any portion thereof for a number of our common shares to be determined by dividing the amount to be converted by an exchange price equal to the higher of (i) the 30-day volume weighted average price for our common shares on the primary national securities exchange or over-the-counter market on which our common shares are traded over the thirty (30) trading days immediately prior to the applicable exchange date or (ii) $2.50 (subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock combinations, recapitalizations and similar transactions).
The notes contain customary events of default, including in the event of a default under the secured convertible promissory notes described above. The rights of the holders to receive payments under the notes are subordinated to the rights of the purchasers under secured convertible promissory notes described above.
6% Amortizing Promissory Note
On July 29, 2020, 1847 Asien entered into a securities purchase agreement with Joerg Christian Wilhelmsen and Susan Kay Wilhelmsen, as trustees of the Wilhelmsen Family Trust, U/D/T Dated May 1, 1992 (the “Asien’s Seller”), pursuant to which the Asien’s Seller sold 415,000 of our common shares to 1847 Asien a purchase price of $2.50 per share. As consideration, 1847 Asien issued to the Asien’s Seller a two-year 6% amortizing promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $1,037,500. On October 8, 2021, 1847 Asien and the Asien’s Seller entered into amendment no. 1 to securities purchase agreement to amend certain terms of the securities purchase agreement and the 6% amortizing promissory note. Pursuant to the amendment, the repayment terms of the 6% amortizing promissory note were revised so that one-half (50%) of the outstanding principal amount ($518,750) and all accrued interest thereon shall be amortized on a two-year straight-line basis and payable quarterly in accordance with the amortization schedule set forth on Exhibit A to the amendment, except for the payments that were initially scheduled on January 1, 2022 and April 1, 2022, which were paid from the proceeds of the senior convertible promissory notes described above, and the second-half (50%) of the outstanding principal amount ($518,750) and all accrued, but unpaid interest thereon shall be paid on the second anniversary of the date of the 6% amortizing promissory note, along with any other unpaid principal or accrued interest thereon. The note is unsecured and contains customary events of default. The remaining principal balance of the note at March 31, 2022 was $581,963 and it had accrued interest of $40,880.
Vesting Promissory Note
A portion of the purchase price for the acquisition of Kyle’s on September 30, 2020 was paid by the issuance of a vesting promissory note by 1847 Cabinet to Stephen Mallatt, Jr. and Rita Mallatt in the principal amount of $1,050,000, which increased to a principal amount of up to $1,260,000 pursuant to the vested percentage calculation described below. Payment of the principal and accrued interest on the note is subject to vesting as described below. The note bears interest on the vested portion of principal amount at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum. To the extent vested, the vested portion of the principal and all accrued but unpaid interest on such vested portion of the principal shall be paid in one lump sum on the last day of the thirty-sixth (36th) month following the date of the note.
The vested principal of the note due at the maturity date shall be calculated each year based on the average annual consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the note) of 1847 Cabinet for each of the years ended December 31, 2020, 2021 and 2022. The EBITDA for each year shall be divided by $1.4 million multiplied by 100 to obtain the vested percentage. The vested principal for each year shall be equal to the vested percentage for that year multiplied by $350,000. To the extent that the vested percentage for the subject year is less than 80%, no portion of the note for that year shall vest. To the extent that the vested percentage for the subject year is equal to or greater than 120%, the vested principal shall be equal to $420,000 for that year and no more. For the year ended December 31, 2020, EBITDA of 1847 Cabinet was approximately $1,531,000, resulting in a vested amount of approximately $415,000. For the year ended December 31, 2021, EBITDA of 1847 Cabinet was approximately $427,504, resulting in an additional vested amount of approximately $602,204. As of March 31, 2022, the outstanding balance of this note was $1,001,183.
31
1847 Cabinet will have the right to redeem all but no less than all of the note at any time prior to the maturity date. If 1847 Cabinet elects to redeem the note, the redemption price will be payable in cash and is equal to the then outstanding vested portion of the principal plus any remaining unvested principal amount plus accrued but unpaid interest thereon (calculated over 36 months). For purposes of this redemption calculation, the “unvested principal amount” shall be $350,000 per year.
The note contains customary events of default. The right of the holders to receive payments under the note is subordinated to all indebtedness of 1847 Cabinet, whether outstanding as of the closing date or thereafter created, to banks, insurance companies and other financial institutions or funds, and federal or state taxation authorities.

Contractual Obligations
Our principal commitments consist mostly of obligations under the loans described above and other contractual commitments described below.
We have engaged the Manager to manage our day-to-day operations and affairs. Our relationship with the Manager will be governed principally by the following agreements:
● | the management services agreement and offsetting management services agreements relating to the management services the Manager will perform for us and the businesses we own and the management fee to be paid to the Manager in respect thereof; and |
● | our operating agreement setting forth the Manager’s rights with respect to the allocation shares it owns, including the right to receive profit allocations from us, and the supplemental put provision relating to the Manager’s right to cause us to purchase the allocation shares it owns. |
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On a regular basis, we evaluate these estimates. These estimates are based on management’s historical industry experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
For a description of the accounting policies that, in management’s opinion, involve the most significant application of judgment or involve complex estimation and which could, if different judgment or estimates were made, materially affect our reported financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 31, 2022.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Not applicable.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, our management has carried out an evaluation, with the participation and under the supervision of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as of March 31, 2022. Based upon, and as of the date of this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer determined that, because of the material weaknesses described in Item 9A “Controls and Procedures” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, which we are still in the process of remediating as of March 31, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. Investors are directed to Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 for the description of these weaknesses.
33
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.
During its evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2022, our management identified the following material weaknesses:
● | We did not have appropriate policies and procedures in place to evaluate the proper accounting and disclosures of key documents and agreements. |
● | We do not have adequate segregation of duties with our limited accounting personnel and rely upon outsourced accounting services. |
● | We do not have sufficient and skilled accounting personnel with an appropriate level of technical accounting knowledge and experience in the application of GAAP commensurate with our financial reporting requirements. |
As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, our management has identified the steps necessary to address the material weaknesses, and in the first quarter of 2022, we continued to implement the following remedial procedures:
● | On September 7, 2021, we hired Vernice Howard as our Chief Financial Officer. Ms. Howard has over 30 years of experience in the fields of finance and accounting and has significant GAAP and SEC reporting experience. |
● | We plan to make necessary changes by providing training to our financial team and our other relevant personnel on the GAAP accounting guidelines applicable to financial reporting requirements. |
● | In the first quarter of 2022, we engaged a financial reporting consultant to provide outsourced accounting and financial reporting services. |
● | In the first quarter of 2022, we also put in place new policies and procedures at the subsidiary level to standardize accounting procedures across all business units. We also plan to hire additional skilled accounting personnel at the subsidiary companies to implement the policies and procedures. |
We intend to complete the remediation of the material weaknesses discussed above as soon as practicable but we can give no assurance that we will be able to do so. Designing and implementing an effective disclosure controls and procedures is a continuous effort that requires us to anticipate and react to changes in our business and the economic and regulatory environments and to devote significant resources to maintain a financial reporting system that adequately satisfies our reporting obligations. The remedial measures that we have taken and intend to take may not fully address the material weaknesses that we have identified, and material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures may be identified in the future. Should we discover such conditions, we intend to remediate them as soon as practicable. We are committed to taking appropriate steps for remediation, as needed.
Other than in connection with the implementation of the remedial measures described above, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the first quarter of 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
