NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Amounts in thousands, except per share amounts)
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the activity of KushCo Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and regulations. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements for the interim periods presented herein, but are not necessarily indicative of operating results to be achieved for full fiscal years or other interim periods. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of August 31, 2019 was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date but does not include all disclosures as required by GAAP. These condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019 and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year then ended and filed with the SEC on November 12, 2019.
References to amounts in these notes to condensed consolidated financial statements are in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise specified.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Significant estimates relied upon in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements include revenue recognition, accounts receivable reserves, inventory and related reserves, expected future cash flows used to evaluate the recoverability of long-lived assets, estimated fair values of long-lived assets used to record impairment charges related to intangible assets and goodwill, amortization periods, accrued expenses, stock-based compensation expenses, and recoverability of the Company’s net deferred tax assets and any related valuation allowance.
Although the Company regularly assesses these estimates, actual results could differ materially from these estimates. Changes in estimates are recorded in the period in which they become known. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from management’s estimates if past experience or other assumptions do not turn out to be substantially accurate.
Accounts Receivable
Trade accounts receivable are carried at their estimated collectible amounts. Trade credit is generally extended on a short-term basis; thus, trade receivables do not bear interest. Trade accounts receivables are periodically evaluated for collectability based on the customer's past credit history and current financial condition. The Company’s net accounts receivable balance was $11,162 and $25,972 as of May 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, respectively. The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $3,660 and $1,058 as of May 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, respectively. The increase in allowance for doubtful accounts was driven primarily by the deteriorating credit conditions in California exhibited by the Company’s customers in this market, which have significantly impacted the Company’s ability to collect, in part or in full, amounts owed by these customers. The Company’s sales return reserve was $506 and $477 as of May 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, respectively, and is included in “Accounts receivable, net” on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Inventory
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the average cost method. The Company’s inventory consists of finished goods of $24,048 and $43,768 as of May 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, respectively. The Company also makes prepayments against the future delivery of inventory classified as prepaid inventory. The Company’s prepaid inventory


was $8,429 and $7,134 as of May 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, respectively. The Company regularly reviews inventory and, when appropriate, records a provision for obsolete and excess inventory. The provision is based on actual loss experience and a forecast of product demand compared to its remaining shelf life. As of May 31, 2020, the Company had $11,285 of inventory reserve. As of August 31, 2019, the Company had $2,640 of inventory reserve.
Equity Investment

On January 30, 2020, the Company partnered with Xtraction Services Holding Corp (“Xtraction Services”), a provider of equipment leasing solutions to owners and operators of cannabis and hemp companies in the United States in order to provide such solutions to the Company’s network of regulated cannabis and cannabidiol (“CBD”) operators. The Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Stephen Christoffersen, has served on the board of directors for Xtraction Services since May 2019. Under the terms of its agreement with Xtraction Services, upon the closing of the transaction, the Company issued 1,653 of its common shares in exchange for 10,600 proportionate voting shares (the “XS Shares”) of Xtraction Services, the equivalent of 19.9% of Xtraction Services' market capitalization on the closing date. On January 30, 2020, the value of the Company's shares issued in exchange for the equity investment in Xtraction Services was $2,528. The Company’s investment in Xtraction Services is included in “Other assets” on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Net Loss Per Share
The Company computes earnings per share under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 260, Earnings per Share (“ASC 260”). Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the sum of (a) the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period and (b) the potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Stock options are potentially dilutive securities; and the number of dilutive options is computed using the treasury stock method.
For the three and nine months ended May 31, 2020, basic and diluted weighted average shares are the same, as the Company generated a net loss for the period. The computation for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2020 does not include 11,368 options and 21,737 warrants, as their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect on net loss per share.
For the three and nine months ended May 31, 2019, net loss is adjusted for changes in fair value of warrants recorded as a liability (see Note 9 below) and weighted average diluted shares includes dilutive warrants. The computation of diluted net loss per share for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2019 does not include 12,662 options and 6,988 warrants, as their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect on net loss per share.
Revenue Recognition
The Company markets and sells a wide variety of ancillary products and services to customers operating in the regulated medical and recreational cannabis and CBD industries. These complementary products and services include compliant and custom packaging products; vape hardware; hydrocarbons and solvents; natural products; stainless steel tanks; custom branded anti-counterfeit and authentication labels; hemp trading services; and retail services focused on CBD mass distribution, industry education and compliance.
In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company applies the following steps to recognize revenue for the sale of products that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for the promised goods:
Identify the contract with a customer.
Identify the performance obligations in the contract.
Determine the transaction price.
Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.
Recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
Advertising
The Company conducts advertising for the promotion of its products and services. In accordance with ASC subtopic 720-35-25 (“ASC 720”), advertising costs are charged to expense when incurred. Advertising costs were $21 and $207 for the three


months ended May 31, 2020 and May 31, 2019, respectively. Advertising costs were $199 and $877 for the nine months ended May 31, 2020 and May 31, 2019, respectively.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-13, Changes to Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurements, which will improve the effectiveness of disclosure requirements for recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The ASU removes, modifies, and adds certain disclosure requirements and is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2019, the FASB Issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting of Income Taxes”, which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine its impact it may have on its financial statements.
In January 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-1, “Investments - Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) - Clarifying the Interactions between Topic 321, Topic 323, and Topic 815.” The ASU is based on a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force and is expected to increase comparability in accounting for these transactions. ASU 2016-1made targeted improvements to accounting for financial instruments, including providing an entity the ability to measure certain equity securities without a readily determinable fair value at cost, less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. Among other topics, the amendments clarify that an entity should consider observable transactions that require it to either apply or discontinue the equity method of accounting. For public business entities, the amendments in the ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of adoption of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.
Update on COVID-19

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization ("WHO") recognized COVID-19 as a global pandemic, prompting many national, regional, and local governments, including in the markets that the Company operates in, to implement preventative or protective measures, such as travel and business restrictions, temporary store closures, and wide-sweeping quarantines and stay-at-home orders. As a result, COVID-19 has significantly curtailed global economic activity, including in the regulated cannabis and CBD industries in which the Company operates.

While the Company is actively working to successfully navigate the financial, operational, and personnel challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, the full extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the pandemic and related actions taken by the U.S. government, state and local government officials, and international governments to prevent disease spread, all of which are uncertain, out of our control and cannot be predicted at this time.
NOTE 2 - CONCENTRATIONS OF RISK

NOTE 7 – LEASES
The Company adopted ASC 842 “Leases” (“ASC 842”) effective September 1, 2019 utilizing the modified retrospective approach for adoption for all leases that existed at or are commenced after the date of initial application with an option to use certain practical expedients. The package of practical expedients allowed the Company to not reassess: (i) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (ii) lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and (iii) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. The Company also used (i) hindsight when evaluating contractual lease options, (ii) the practical expedient that allows lessees to treat lease and non-lease components of leases as a single lease component, (iii) the portfolio approach which allows similar leased assets to be grouped and accounted for together, and (iv) the short-term lease for leases with a term of 12 months or less.
The adoption of ASC 842 had a material impact on the condensed consolidated balance sheet due to the recognition of Right of Use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities. The adoption of this ASC did not have a material impact on the consolidated statement of operations or the consolidated statement of cash flows. The Company did not recognize a material cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance sheet retained earnings on September 1, 2019. Because the modified retrospective approach was elected, the ASU was not applied to periods prior to adoption and did not have an impact on previously reported results. At adoption, the Company recognized operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities that reflect the present value of the future payments. As the rate implicit in the lease could not be determined for any of the Company’s leases, an estimated incremental borrowing rate of 10.7%, which reflects the interest rate the Company would pay to borrow funds over a similar term and in a similar economic environment, was used to determine the present value of lease payments. Based on the impact of ASC 842 on the lease population, the Company recorded $7.6 million in lease liabilities and $6.8 million for ROU assets based upon the lease liabilities adjusted for deferred rent. ROU assets are included in “Other assets” and lease liabilities are included in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and “Other non-current liabilities” on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet.
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company leases its facilities and certain office equipment under operating leases which expire on various dates through 2026. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. When readily determinable, the Company uses the implicit rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The ROU asset also includes any fixed lease payments, including in-substance fixed lease payments and excludes lease incentives. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease term is determined at lease commencement and includes any non-cancellable period for which the Company has the right to use the underlying asset, together with any options to extend that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise.

NOTE 8 – DEBT
Monroe Revolving Credit Facility
On August 21, 2019, the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Borrowers”) entered into a secured asset based revolving credit facility (the “Monroe Revolving Credit Facility”), with an aggregate amount not to exceed $35.0 million outstanding at any time, with Monroe Capital Management Advisors, LLC (“Monroe”), as collateral agent and administrative agent, and the various lenders party thereto. The Monroe Revolving Credit Facility also includes an accordion feature that permits the Company to increase the available revolving commitments under the Monroe Revolving Credit Facility by up to an additional $15.0 million, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. The Monroe Revolving Credit Facility has a 5-year term which matures on August 21, 2024 and is secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the assets of the Borrowers.
The Monroe Revolving Credit Facility contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, including a financial covenant requiring certain minimum availability, and events of default. As of May 31, 2020, there was no balance outstanding under the facility. As of August 31, 2019, the outstanding balance under the facility was $12.3 million.
The Company incurred closing costs associated with the Monroe Revolving Credit Facility in the amount of $2,602, which were deferred and amortized over the 5-year term of the Monroe Revolving Credit Facility on a straight-line basis. As of May 31, 2020, unamortized debt issuance costs of $2,194 are included in “Other assets.” Interest expense and amortization of debt discount, associated with the Monroe Revolving Credit Facility during the three months ended May 31, 2020 amounted to $73 and $154, respectively. Interest expense and amortization of debt discount, associated with the Monroe Revolving Credit Facility during the nine months ended May 31, 2020 amounted to $528 and $461, respectively.
Monroe Warrants
On August 21, 2019, the Company entered into a subscription agreement with Monroe, pursuant to which the Company issued to Monroe a warrant to purchase up to 500 shares of its common stock (the “Monroe Warrant”) at an exercise price of $4.25 per share. The Monroe Warrant has a 5-year term and as such will expire on August 21, 2024. Amortization expense for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2020 was $50 and $148, respectively.



Long-term Debt
On April 29, 2019, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with an institutional investor (the “Investor”), pursuant to which the Company issued and sold a senior note (the “Original Note”) to the Investor in a private placement offering in the aggregate principal amount of $21.3 million with an original issue discount of $1.3 million, and received net proceeds of $20.0 million. The Original Note was a senior unsecured obligation, and unless earlier redeemed, was scheduled to mature on October 30, 2020. The Original Note did not bear interest, except upon the occurrence of an event of default.
On August 21, 2019, the Company entered into an exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with the Investor in order to amend and waive certain provisions of the Purchase Agreement and the Original Note and to exchange the Original Note for (i) a new senior note (the “Amended Senior Note”) for the same aggregate principal amount as the Original Note and (ii) a warrant to purchase up to 650 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $4.25 per share. The warrant has an expiration date of August 21, 2024 and has not been exercised as of May 31, 2020. As of August 21, 2019, the warrant was reclassified from a derivative liability to equity with a corresponding adjustment to additional paid-in capital.
Similar to the terms of the Original Note, the Amended Senior Note was set to mature on October 30, 2020, at which time the Company was to pay the Investor an amount in cash representing 120% of all outstanding principal, less original issue discount, plus any accrued and unpaid interest and accrued and unpaid late charges. Similar to the terms of the Original Note, the Amended Senior Note did not bear interest except upon the occurrence of an event of default.
On November 8, 2019, the Company entered into a Second Exchange Agreement (“Second Exchange Agreement”) with the Investor, pursuant to which the Company amended the Amended Senior Note (as amended, the “Second Amended Senior Note”). Pursuant to the terms of the Second Amended Senior Note, the maturity date of the Second Amended Senior Note was extended to April 29, 2021 and the aggregate principal amount of the Second Amended Senior Note was increased to approximately $24.0 million and the original issue discount was increased to $1.5 million. Upon maturity, the Company was to pay the Investor an amount in cash representing 120% of all outstanding principal, less original issue discount, plus any accrued and unpaid interest and accrued and unpaid late charges. Similar to the terms of the Original Note, the Second Amended Senior Note did not bear interest, except upon the occurrence of an event of default.
See Note 14 below for a description of the Third Exchange Agreement entered into by the Company and the Investor subsequent to May 31, 2020.
PPP Loan

On April 30, 2020, the Company qualified for and received a loan pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program, a program implemented by the U.S. Small Business Administration under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, from a qualified lender (the “PPP Lender”), for an aggregate principal amount of approximately $1.9 million (the "PPP Loan"). The PPP Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 1.0% per annum, with the first six months of interest deferred, has a term of two years, and is unsecured and guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The principal amount of the PPP Loan is subject to forgiveness under the Paycheck Protection Program upon the Company’s request to the extent that the PPP Loan proceeds are used to pay expenses permitted by the Paycheck Protection Program, including payroll costs, covered rent and mortgage obligations, and covered utility payments incurred by the Company. The Company intends to apply for forgiveness of the PPP Loan with respect to these covered expenses. To the extent that all or part of the PPP Loan is not forgiven, the Company will be required to pay interest on the PPP Loan at a rate of 1.0% per annum, and commencing in October 2020 principal and interest payments will be required through the maturity date in April 2022. The terms of the PPP Loan provide for customary events of default including, among other things, payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, and insolvency events. The PPP Loan may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default.
NOTE 9 – WARRANT LIABILITY
In addition to the warrants described above, in June 2018, the Company issued warrants to purchase 3,750 shares of its common stock exercisable at a price per share of $5.28 (the “2018 Warrants”) to investors in a registered direct offering. The 2018 Warrants have a term of five years from the date of issuance. Pursuant to ASC Topic 815, the initial fair value of the 2018 Warrants of $15,350 was recorded as a warrant liability on the issuance date. The estimated fair values of the 2018 Warrants were computed at issuance using a Black-Scholes option pricing model.
The estimated fair value of the outstanding liabilities associated with the 2018 Warrants was $2,009 and $5,444 as of May 31, 2020 and August 31, 2019, respectively.


Increases or decreases in fair value of the Company's liability associated with the 2018 Warrants are included as a component of “Other expense” in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the respective period. The changes to the liability associated with the 2018 Warrants resulted in an increase of $1,160 and decrease of $3,435 in liability and a corresponding loss and gain for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2020, respectively. The changes to the liability associated with the 2018 Warrants resulted in a decrease of $6,254 and $7,309 in liability and a corresponding gain for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2019, respectively.
The estimated fair value of the 2018 Warrants was computed as of May 31, 2020 using the Black Scholes model with the following assumptions: stock price of $1.19, volatility of 119.5%, risk-free rate of 0.22%, annual dividend yield of 0% and expected life of 3.0 years.
NOTE 10 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Fair value measurements are performed in accordance with the guidance provided by ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or parameters are not available, valuation models are applied.
ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the financial statements are categorized based upon the hierarchy of levels of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical levels directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities, are as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supportable by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, equity investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and obligations approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature. The carrying amount of the Company’s long-term notes payable approximates its fair value based on interest rates available to the Company for similar debt instruments and similar remaining maturities.
The Company accounts for its investment in Smoke Cartel, Inc. (“Smoke Cartel”) at fair value. On September 21, 2018, Smoke Cartel and the Company entered into an agreement to sell Rowl-Uh-Bowl (the “RUB”) web domain and inventory related to this product line and in exchange, received 1,410 shares of Smoke Cartel common stock. The fair value of the Company’s investment as of August 31, 2019 and May 31, 2020 was based upon the closing price of Smoke Cartel's common stock on each respective date. The investment was classified as a Level 2 financial instrument.
The Company accounts for its investment in Xtraction Services at fair value. The fair value of the Company’s investment at May 31, 2020 was based upon the closing price of Xtraction Services' common stock on each respective date. The investment was classified as a Level 2 financial instrument.
In connection with the Company’s registered direct offering in June 2018, the Company issued the 2018 Warrants, which are accounted for as a warrant liability (see Note 9 above.) The estimated fair value of the liability is recorded using significant unobservable measures and other fair value inputs and is therefore classified as a Level 3 financial instrument.
The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration related to the Company’s business combinations is recorded using significant unobservable measures and other fair value inputs and is therefore classified as a Level 3 financial instrument.


The following table details the fair value measurement within the fair value hierarchy of the Company’s financial instruments, which includes the Level 2 assets and the Level 3 liabilities:

NOTE 11 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Preferred Stock
The Company’s authorized preferred stock is 10,000 shares with a par value of $0.001. As of May 31, 2020, and August 31, 2019, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.
Common Stock
The Company’s authorized common stock is 265,000 shares with a par value of $0.001. As of May 31, 2020, and August 31, 2019, there were 119,933 and 90,041 shares issued and outstanding, respectively.
On September 26, 2019, the Company entered into purchase agreements with certain accredited investors pursuant to which the Company issued and sold an aggregate of 17,198 units, with each unit consisting of one share of its common stock and a warrant to purchase half a share of its common stock in a registered direct offering (the “September 2019 Offering”). The purchase price for a unit was $1.75. The closing of the September 2019 Offering occurred on September 30, 2019 and resulted in aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $30.1 million. The aggregate net proceeds to the Company from the September 2019 Offering, after deducting the placement agent fees and other offering expenses, was approximately $27.4 million. Subject to certain ownership limitations, the warrants were immediately exercisable at an exercise price equal to $2.25 per share of common stock. The warrants are exercisable for five years from the date of issuance.
On February 6, 2020, the Company entered into purchase agreements with certain accredited investors pursuant to which the Company issued and sold an aggregate of 10,000 units, with each unit consisting of one share of its common stock and a warrant to purchase half a share of its common stock in a registered direct offering (the “February 2020 Offering”). The purchase price for a unit was $1.60. The closing of the February 2020 Offering occurred on February 10, 2020 and resulted in aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $16.0 million. The aggregate net proceeds from the February 2020 Offering, after deducting the placement agent fees and other offering expenses, was approximately $14.6 million. Subject to certain ownership limitations, the warrants were immediately exercisable at an exercise price equal to $2.00 per share of common stock. The warrants are exercisable for five years from the date of issuance.
Share-based Compensation
The Company recorded total stock-based compensation expense of $2,985 and $2,667 for the three months ended May 31, 2020 and May 31, 2019, respectively, and $11,074 and $8,839 for the nine months ended May 31, 2020 and May 31, 2019, respectively, in connection with the issuance of shares of common stock and options to purchase common stock. Stock-based compensation expense is included in selling, general and administrative expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
On September 1, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2018-7 which addresses several aspects of the accounting for non-employee share-based payment transactions and expands the scope of ASC 718, Compensation, to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from non-employees. Under the simplified standard, non-


employee options will be valued once at the date of grant. At adoption, all awards without established measurement dates were revalued one final time and did not have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Stock Incentive Plan
The Company’s 2016 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) was adopted on February 9, 2016. The Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 18,000 shares of common stock in the form of stock-based awards to the Company’s employees and directors. The Company believes that such awards better align the interests of its employees with those of its shareholders. Option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the closing market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant and have 10 years contractual terms. The option awards generally vest over three years subject to the recipient’s continuous service.
The Company estimates the fair value of share-based compensation utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which is dependent upon several variables such as the expected option term, expected volatility of its stock price over the expected option term, expected risk-free interest rate over the expected option term, and expected dividend yield rate over the expected option term. The Company believes this valuation methodology is appropriate for estimating the fair value of stock options granted to employees and directors which are subject to ASC 718. These amounts are estimates only and thus may not be reflective of actual future results, nor amounts ultimately realized by recipients of these grants. The Company recognizes compensation on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each award.
The following table summarizes the assumptions the Company utilized to record compensation expense for stock options granted during the nine months ended May 31, 2020 and May 31, 2019:
  Nine Months Ended
  May 31, 2020 May 31, 2019
Expected term in years
5.3 – 5.9
1-3
Expected volatility
64% – 120%
69% – 87%
Risk-free interest rate
0.3% – 1.7%
2.3% – 3.0%
Expected dividend yield 0.0% 0.0%
The expected term of stock options granted during the nine months ended May 31, 2020 and May 31, 2019 is based on management's judgement and reflects expected exercise patterns. The expected volatility of these stock options is based on management’s analysis of historical volatility. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yields with terms equivalent to the expected term of the related option at the time of the grant. While the Company believes these estimates are reasonable, the compensation expense recorded would increase if the expected life of these options was increased, a higher expected volatility was used, or if the expected dividend yield increased.
The following table summarizes the Company's stock option activity during the nine months ended May 31, 2020:

Exercisable, May 31, 2020 5,998    $ 4.40    7.9 $ 26   
Stock compensation expense related to stock options was $7,348 and $5,740 for the nine months ended May 31, 2020 and May 31, 2019, respectively. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the nine months ended May 31, 2020 and May 31, 2019, was $1.39 and $2.59, respectively.


As of May 31, 2020, there was $12,482 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options granted under the Plan. The expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.7 years.
Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units
During the nine months ended May 31, 2020, the Company awarded 533 shares of restricted stock to consultants in exchange for $662 of services rendered.
During the nine months ended May 31, 2019, the Company issued 295 shares of restricted stock to consultants in exchange for $377 of services rendered and $1,277 of prepaid services, for a total of $1,654. The prepaid services are included in prepaid expenses on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of May 31, 2019.
Stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock awards was $3,726 and $3,099, respectively, for the nine months ended May 31, 2020 and May 31, 2019.
During the nine months ended May 31, 2020, the Company awarded 174 shares of restricted stock units to directors for serving on the board of directors.
As of May 31, 2020, $2,329 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to restricted stock units is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.3 years.
NOTE 12 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Other Commitments
In the ordinary course of business, the Company may enter into contractual purchase obligations and other agreements that are legally binding and specify certain minimum payment terms. The Company had no such agreements as of May 31, 2020.
Litigation
The Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of its business.

During fiscal 2019, lawsuits were filed in California federal and state court by various purported shareholders against, the Company, each of the current members of the Company’s Board of Directors, and certain of the Company’s current and former officers, alleging, among other things, certain federal securities law violations and/or related breaches of fiduciary duties in connection with the Company’s April 2019 restatement of certain prior period financial statements. In general, the lawsuits assert the same or similar allegations, including that the defendants artificially inflated the Company’s securities prices by knowingly making materially false and misleading statements and omissions to the investing public about the Company’s financial statements, business, operations, management, and internal controls. These lawsuits are described below.

May v. KushCo Holdings, Inc., et al. Filed April 30, 2019. Case No. 8:19-cv-00798-JLS-KES, U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. This putative shareholder class action against the Company and certain of its current and former officers alleges violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and seeks unspecified compensatory damages and other relief on behalf of a class of purchasers of the Company’s securities between July 13, 2017 and April 9, 2019, inclusive. In September 2019, the Court appointed co-lead plaintiffs and co-lead counsel for the plaintiffs. The lead plaintiffs’ amended complaint was filed in November 2019. In February 2020, the Company moved to dismiss the amended complaint. The motion is pending. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself against these claims.

Salsberg v. Kovacevich, et al. Filed May 24, 2019. Case No. 8:19-cv-00998-JLS-KES, U.S. District Court for the Central District of California and Neysmith v. Baum, et al. Filed May 31, 2019. Case No. 8:19-cv-01070-JLS-KES, U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. This purported shareholder derivative action against certain current and former directors and officers alleges, among other things, breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets, and unjust enrichment. The Company is named as a nominal defendant and the plaintiff seeks, among other things, corporate governance reforms, and disgorgement of profits, benefits, and compensation obtained by the defendants from the alleged conduct, to be paid to the Company. In September 2019, the Court consolidated these cases. In December 2019, the Court ordered a stay of this action pursuant to a stipulation of the parties.

Savage v. Kovacevich, et al. Filed June 14, 2019. Case No. 30-2019-01077191-CU-MC-NJC, Superior Court of California, County of Orange. This purported shareholder derivative action against certain current and former directors and officers alleges, among other things, breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets, and unjust enrichment. The Company is named as a nominal defendant and the plaintiff seeks, among other things, corporate governance reforms, and unspecified damages and restitution from the defendants, to be paid to the Company. In August 2019, the Court ordered a stay of this action pursuant to a stipulation of the parties.

NOTE 13 – 2020 PLAN & RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company adopted a comprehensive strategic plan (the “2020 Plan”) to more effectively execute the Company’s strategy of focusing its resources on more established, financially stable, and creditworthy customers (namely multi-state operators, licensed producers, and leading brands). In connection with the 2020 Plan, the Company began implementing a restructuring process that seeks to rationalize all aspects of its operations by, among other things, significantly reducing its overhead, implementing tighter expense controls, consolidating its warehouses, reducing its inventory, and drastically altering its sales strategy to focus more on these customers. The Company believes that this strategic shift and associated restructuring should result in a better forecast of demand, reduction of inventory and warehouse space, improved collections and cash flow, and potential revenue upside from these customers’ continued expansion and consolidation in the marketplace.
The Company has completed, or is in the process of completing, the following restructuring activities in connection with the 2020 Plan:
Severance: The Company is in the process of implementing a more efficient and automated approach to serving a smaller more targeted group of customers, which will require substantially fewer dedicated sales representatives, project managers, warehouse personnel, and other related personnel. As part of this process, the Company determined that certain positions at the Company were no longer essential to the execution of the Company’s strategy going forward. As a result, the Company underwent reductions in force to right-size and better align its workforce with this new strategy. During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company terminated 28 employees, and incurred $379 in severance-related restructuring costs. During the third quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company terminated 65 employees, and incurred $800 in severance-related restructuring costs.

Facility-Related Lease Termination and Exiting Costs: As a result of the Company’s decision to discontinue nearly all of its stock inventory, the Company determined that it no longer needs the vast majority of its current warehouse space, and is currently in the process of negotiating with its landlords to terminate or sublease and exit the impacted warehouses. During the third quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company terminated leases and vacated its Las Vegas, Nevada, Santa Rosa, California, Osage, Colorado facilities and subleased its Garden Grove, California facility. The Company is planning to vacate additional facilities throughout the remainder of fiscal 2020 in order to consolidate its warehouse footprint. During the third quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company incurred $0.2 million in restructuring exit cost.

Asset Impairment: With the Company’s planned facility closures, the Company has determined that the fair value of its fixed assets at these closing facilities is now below their carrying value, and that an impairment has occurred. The Company also determined that its product molds and tooling are no longer necessary assets, given its shift to focus exclusively on custom and best-selling stock inventory, creating an additional need for impairment. As a result, the Company recognized a total impairment charge related of approximately $3.9 million related to these fixed assets during the second quarter of its fiscal 2020. In addition, because of the Company’s decision to consolidate its warehouses, the Company determined that it will incur impairment charges to its ROU assets. Based on internal calculations, the Company recognized impairment charges related to these assets of $3.0 million during the second quarter of its fiscal 2020.








The Company expects to incur a total of $9.5 million in restructuring charges upon the completion of the 2020 Plan, which represents the Company’s best estimate as of May 31, 2020. The 2020 Plan is expected to be completed by the end of fiscal 2020. The recognition of restructuring charges requires that the Company make certain judgments and estimates regarding the nature, timing and amount of costs associated with the planned reductions of workforce and facility, ROU and asset impairment costs. At the end of each reporting period, the Company will evaluate the remaining accrued balance to ensure that no excess accruals are retained, and the utilization of the provisions are for their intended purpose in accordance with developed plans. The following table reflects the movement of activity of the restructuring reserve for the six months ended May 31, 2020:

NOTE 14 – SUBSEQUENT EVENT
Third Exchange Agreement and Third Exchange Note

On June 9, 2020, the Company entered into a Third Exchange Agreement (the “Third Exchange Agreement”) with the Investor in order to (x) amend and waive certain provisions of the Purchase Agreement and the Second Amended Senior Note, and (y) exchange the Second Amended Senior Note without any cash consideration for (i) a new senior note in the aggregate principal amount of $22.0 million (the “Third Amended Senior Note”) and (ii) 5,347,594 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Exchange Shares”).

Similar to the terms of the Second Amended Senior Note, the Third Amended Senior Note will mature on April 29, 2021, subject to the Investor’s right to extend such maturity date. Upon maturity, the Company must pay the Investor an amount in cash representing the aggregate outstanding principal, plus any accrued and unpaid interest and accrued and unpaid late charges. Similar to the terms of the Original Note, the Third Amended Senior Note will not bear interest except upon the occurrence (and during the continuance) of an Event of Default (as such term is defined in the Third Amended Senior Note), in which case the Third Amended Senior Note will bear interest at a rate of 18.0% per annum (the “Default Rate”).

The Third Amended Senior Note is redeemable by the Company at any time after the issuance in an amount equal to the outstanding principal and any accrued interest or late charges. The Third Amended Senior Note includes customary affirmative and negative covenants, including a limitation on the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, subject to certain permitted exceptions. The Third Amended Senior Note includes customary events of default including, among others, payment defaults, breach of covenant defaults, bankruptcy and insolvency defaults, cross defaults with certain indebtedness, a change of control default, judgment defaults, and inaccuracies of representations and warranties defaults. Similar to the terms of the Original Note, the Investor may require the Company to redeem, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all or a portion of the Third Amended Senior Note at a redemption premium of 135% of the outstanding principal and any accrued interest or late charges. Similar to the terms of the Original Note, any amount of principal or other amounts due to the Investor under the Purchase Agreement or the Third Amended Senior Note that is not paid when due (except to the extent such amount is simultaneously accruing interest at the Default Rate) will result in a late charge being incurred and payable by the Company in an amount equal to interest on such amount at the rate of 18.0% per annum from the date such amount was due until the same is paid in full.

Our products primarily consist of bottles, jars, bags, tubes, containers, vape cartridges, vape batteries and accessories, labels and processing supplies, solvents, natural products, stainless steel tanks, and custom branded anti-counterfeit and authentication labels. We maintain relationships with a broad range of domestic and international manufacturers, which enables us to source a wide variety of products in a cost-effective manner and to pass such cost savings to our customers. This allows us to offer quick solutions to our customers and help ensure that their products will be of superior grade and made with environmentally safe materials.

2020 Plan
During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company adopted the 2020 Plan to more effectively execute the Company’s strategy of focusing its resources on more established, financially stable, and creditworthy customers (namely multi-state operators, licensed producers, and leading brands). In connection with the 2020 Plan, the Company began implementing a restructuring process that seeks to rationalize all aspects of its operations by, among other things, significantly reducing its overhead, implementing tighter expense controls, consolidating its warehouses, reducing its inventory, and drastically altering its sales strategy to focus more on these customers. The Company believes that this strategic shift and associated restructuring should result in a better forecast of demand, reduction of inventory and warehouse space, improved collections and cash flow, and potential revenue upside from these customers’ continued expansion and consolidation in the marketplace. For additional information see Note 13 above of our consolidated financial statements.

Update on COVID-19

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization ("WHO") recognized COVID-19 as a global pandemic, prompting many national, regional, and local governments, including in the markets that the Company operates in, to implement preventative or protective measures, such as travel and business restrictions, temporary store closures, and wide-sweeping quarantines and stay-at-home orders. As a result, COVID-19 has significantly curtailed global economic activity, including in the regulated cannabis and CBD industries in which the Company operates.


COVID-19 has materially impacted the Company’s markets and sources of revenues, including without limitation, by and through the following:
State and provincial mandates requiring the temporary closure of nonessential businesses, such as the temporary closure of adult recreational use stores in Massachusetts, Nevada, and Ontario, Canada, as well as the substantial closure of many retail storefronts that sell CBD;
Restrictions and limitations on travel that have curtailed consumer demand in tourist-heavy markets, such as Nevada and Colorado, as well as a general negative effect on the ability of the Company’s sales force to meet with potential customers and secure new orders; and
The Company’s customers increasingly consolidating orders and purchasing less frequently in response to general macroeconomic and business uncertainty, creating a more volatile and irregular purchasing and revenue recognition pattern
In addition, the Company has been impacted by business and supply chain interruptions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, such as operating with a lighter-than-normal staff in its warehouses and periodically closing its warehouses to conduct deep cleaning services, which disrupts the Company's normal business functions, including processing and shipping orders to customers in a timely manner. The COVID-19 pandemic has also resulted in increased air freight costs incurred by the Company, which the Company is passing on to its customers via a surcharge, as well as general difficulties in securing space on incoming freight from its international vendors in order to make room for essential items. The Company has experienced, and could continue to experience, delays in orders from vendors, particularly in countries where the pandemic has had a significant impact, such as in China.
The COVID-19 pandemic has created significant disruption and volatility in the capital markets, which, depending on future developments, could impact our capital resources and liquidity in the future. If we need to raise additional capital to support operations in the future, we may be unable to access capital markets, and additional capital may only be available to us on terms that could be significantly detrimental to our existing stockholders and to our business as a result of COVID-19. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic is also potentially affecting our customers and their access to the capital markets. As a result of all these factors, the Company’s management has significantly reduced non-essential costs.
In response to the health and safety risks and challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has been proactively and regularly implementing measures to protect its employees. These measures include, but are not limited to, the following:
Abiding by national, state, and local recommendations to require the wearing of protective face masks and practicing of social distancing;
Arranging for regular cleaning services for Company facilities;
Providing hand sanitizers and other disinfectants at workstations;
Adopting remote working protocols, systems, and processes for nonessential employees to work from home;
Conducting mandatory employee temperature checks, and on some occasions, requiring mandatory testing for employees;
Reconfiguring facilities to promote social distancing;
Operating with a smaller workforce in the warehouse and with staggered schedules;
Adopting a temporary essential pay program for essential warehouse employees; and,
Developing and launching an education and training platform to help employees navigate the current workplace landscape and practice general sanitation.
While the Company is actively working to successfully navigate the financial, operational, and personnel challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, the full extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our operational and financial performance will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the pandemic and related actions taken by the U.S. government, state and local government officials, and international governments to prevent disease spread, all of which are uncertain, out of our control and cannot be predicted at this time.
Results of Operations – Comparison of Three Months Ended May 31, 2020 and May 31, 2019
Revenue
For the three months ended May 31, 2020, our revenue decreased to $22.3 million compared to $41.5 million for the three months ended May 31, 2019, which represents a decrease of $19.2 million, or 46%. The decrease was primarily attributed to the Company's adoption of its 2020 Plan to align deeper with larger and more creditworthy multi-state-operators, licensed producers, and leading brands, which has resulted in significant cost-cutting initiatives and tighter credit terms extended to its


smaller customers; lower sales from vape and natural products; and travel and regulatory restrictions in the markets that the Company operates in due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as supply chain disruptions linked to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has resulted in shipping capacity constraints from China. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in customers ordering less frequently and at irregular intervals due to less visibility in their businesses, overall demand, and general economic conditions.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the three months ended May 31, 2020 was $2.4 million, or 11% of revenue, compared to gross profit of $7.4 million, or 18% of revenue, for the three months ended May 31, 2019. The decrease in gross profit percentage is due primarily to an increase of $1.5 million related to excess and obsolete inventory write downs as a result of right sizing inventory levels to align with our 2020 Plan, $1.0 million purchase order cancellation charges and lower product sales.
Operating Expenses
Our operating expenses for the three months ended May 31, 2020 decreased to $13.7 million, or 61% of total revenue, from $23.7 million, or 57% of total revenue, for the three months ended May 31, 2019. Lower selling, general and administrative expense is primarily due to a $4.2 million decrease in compensation associated with lower headcount. Compensation expense includes a $0.8 million cash bonus reversal to reclassify the expense to stock compensation, which is offset by a $1.0 million restructuring charge associated with severance. To align with the Company's 2020 Plan, freight, consulting, and facilities costs decreased $1.0 million, $0.9 million, and $0.8 million, respectively. Other expenses contracted by $1.0 million primarily due to less travel related to the COVID-19 pandemic. For the three months ended May 31, 2019, operating expenses included a loss of $3.0 million related to the change in the fair value of contingent consideration.
Loss from Operations
Loss from operations for the three months ended May 31, 2020 was $11.3 million compared to $16.3 million for the three months ended May 31, 2019. The decrease is primarily attributable to compensation associated with our headcount reduction, lower freight costs, warehouse facilities closures, and reduced travel expenses related to the COVID-19 pandemic, which were partially offset by the restructuring charges the Company recognized in accordance with the adoption of its 2020 Plan, including severance and asset impairment charges.
Other Income (Expense), net
Other Income (Expense), net for the three months ended May 31, 2020 was an expense of $2.2 million compared to income of $5.7 million for the three months ended May 31, 2019. The increase in other expense is primarily due to an unfavorable change in fair value of warrant liability, resulting in an expense of $1.2 million, as compared to other income of $6.3 million in the previous year. Interest expense increased $1.0 million, when compared to the three months ended May 31, 2019.
Net Loss
Loss from operations for the three months ended May 31, 2020 was $13.5 million compared to $10.6 million for the three months ended May 31, 2019. To align with the Company's 2020 Plan, the increase in net loss is primarily attributable to inventory write downs related to right sizing inventory, purchase order cancellation charges, and restructuring charges related to severance. The increase is also derived from an unfavorable change in fair value of warrant liability, higher amortization of debt discount, higher stock-based compensation and lower product sales.
Results of Operations – Comparison of Nine Months Ended May 31, 2020 and May 31, 2019

Revenue

For the nine months ended May 31, 2020, our revenue decreased to $87.4 million compared to $102.0 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2019, which represents a decrease of $14.6 million, or 14.3%. The decrease was primarily attributable to the Company's adoption of its 2020 Plan to align deeper with larger and more creditworthy multi-state-operators, licensed producers, and leading brands, which has resulted in significant cost-cutting initiatives and tighter credit terms extended to its smaller customers; lower vape and natural products stemming from the illicit market vape crisis; travel and regulatory restrictions in the markets that the Company operates in due to the COVID-19 pandemic; and supply chain disruptions linked to the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in shipping capacity constraints from China. This was partially offset by higher packaging


and energy sales and increased tariff revenue. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in customers ordering less frequently and at irregular intervals due to less visibility in their businesses, overall demand, and general economic conditions.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the nine months ended May 31 2020 was $0.7 million, or 1% of revenue, compared to gross profit of $15.1 million, or 15% of revenue, for the nine months ended May 31, 2019. The decrease in gross profit percentage is due primarily to an increase of $12.5 million related to inventory write downs as a result of right sizing inventory levels to align with our strategy moving forward, $4.3 million purchase order cancellation charges and lower product sales, partially offset by tariff revenues.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses for the nine months ended May 31, 2020 increased to $69.2 million, or 79% of total revenue, from $48.5 million, or 48% of total revenue, for the nine months ended May 31, 2019. The increase in selling, general and administrative expense is primarily due to incremental bad debt expense of $8.1 million, restructuring expense of $8.3 million related to severance and asset impairment charges associated with warehouse facilities the Company closed, stock based compensation of $2.2 million, and consulting fees of $0.7 million. For the nine months ended May 31, 2019, operating expenses included a gain of $2.2 million related to the change in the fair value of contingent consideration.

Loss from Operations

Loss from operations for the nine months ended May 31, 2020 was $68.5 million compared to $33.4 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2019. The increase is primarily attributable to inventory write downs related to right sizing inventory levels to align with our new inventory strategy, restructuring charges related to severance and asset impairment charges associated with rationalizing the warehouse footprint as part of the new plan, purchase order cancellation charges, bad debt, stock-based compensation, consulting fees and lower product sales.

Other Income (Expense), net

Other Income (Expense), net for the nine months ended May 31, 2020 was an expense of $1.9 million compared to income of $5.3 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2019. This was primarily due to an unfavorable change in fair value of warrant liability, which resulted in $3.4 million in income for the nine months ending May 31, 2020, as compared to $7.3 million in income for the same period in 2019. This was also attributable to an increase in expense of $0.4 million on changes in the fair value of equity investment and an increase in interest expense of $3.1 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2020.
Net Loss

Loss from operations for the nine months ended May 31, 2020 was $70.4 million compared to $28.1 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2019. The increase in net loss is primarily attributable to measures taken to implement our 2020 Plan, including, inventory write downs related to right sizing inventory levels. restructuring charges related to, severance and asset impairment charges associated with rationalizing the warehouse footprint, purchase order cancellation charges and bad debt expense. The increase was also attributable to increase in interest expense, stock-based compensation, consulting fees, and lower product sales.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At May 31, 2020 and May 31, 2019, we had cash of $11.1 million and $12.2 million, respectively, and a working capital surplus of $41.8 million and $63.0 million, respectively.
We believe that our level of liquidity sources, which includes available borrowing under our revolving credit facility, cash on hand, funds provided by operations, adoption of the 2020 plan and participation in available funding programs instituted by various state and federal governments in response to COVID-19 will be adequate to fund our expenditures and working capital requirements for the next 12 months.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended May 31, 2020 was $20.2 million compared to $57.5 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2019. The change is primarily attributable to the reduced level of inventory consistent with our efforts to improve our inventory management process, as part of our 2020 Plan.


Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended May 31, 2020 was $4.3 million compared to $5.4 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2019. The decrease is due to lower levels of equipment purchases, technology investments and leasehold improvements during the current fiscal year.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended May 31, 2020 was $31.7 million compared to $61.7 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2019. The decrease is attributable to the $12.3 million in net repayments on our line of credit, compared to $0.2 million in net borrowings in the prior year. The change is also attributable to $1.9 million in proceeds from notes payable, compared to $19.9 million in proceeds from notes payable in the prior year.
Monroe Revolving Credit Facility
On August 21, 2019, the Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Borrowers”) entered into a secured asset based revolving credit facility (the “Monroe Revolving Credit Facility”), with an aggregate amount not to exceed $35.0 million outstanding at any time, with Monroe Capital Management Advisors, LLC (“Monroe”), as collateral agent and administrative agent, and the various lenders party thereto. The Monroe Revolving Credit Facility also includes an accordion feature that permits the Company to increase the available revolving commitments under the Monroe Revolving Credit Facility by up to an additional $15.0 million, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. The Monroe Revolving Credit Facility has a 5-year term which matures on August 21, 2024 and is secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the assets of the Borrowers. For additional information, see Note 8 above.
Long-term Debt

On June 9, 2020, the Company entered into a Third Exchange Agreement with the Investor in order to (a) amend and waive certain provisions of the Purchase Agreement and the Second Exchange Note, and (b) exchange the Second Exchange Note without any cash consideration for (i) the Third Exchange Note in the aggregate principal amount of $22.0 million and (ii) the Exchange Shares. Similar to the terms of the Second Exchange Note, the Third Exchange Note will mature on April 29, 2021, subject to the Investor’s right to extend such maturity date. Similar to the terms of the Original Note, the Amended Senior Note will not bear interest, except upon the occurrence of an event of default. For additional information, see Note 8 above.

PPP Loan

On April 30, 2020, the Company qualified for and received a loan pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program, a program implemented by the U.S. Small Business Administration under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act from a qualified lender (the “PPP Lender”), for an aggregate principal amount of approximately $1.9 million (the “PPP Loan”). The PPP Loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 1.0% per annum, with the first six months of interest deferred, has a term of two years, and is unsecured and guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The principal amount of the PPP Loan is subject to forgiveness under the Paycheck Protection Program upon the Company’s request to the extent that the PPP Loan proceeds are used to pay expenses permitted by the Paycheck Protection Program, including payroll costs, covered rent and mortgage obligations, and covered utility payments incurred by the Company. The Company intends to apply for forgiveness of the PPP Loan with respect to these covered expenses. To the extent that all or part of the PPP Loan is not forgiven, the Company will be required to pay interest on the PPP Loan at a rate of 1.0% per annum, and commencing in October 2020 principal and interest payments will be required through the maturity date in April 2022. The terms of the PPP Loan provide for customary events of default including, among other things, payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, and insolvency events. The PPP Loan may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default.
Off-Balance Sheet Transactions
We do not currently have, and did not have during the periods presented, any off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined under SEC rules.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going


basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, accounts receivable reserves, inventory and related reserves, expected cash flows used to evaluate the recoverability of long-lived assets, estimated fair values of long-lived assets used to record impairment charges related to intangible assets and goodwill, amortization periods, accrued expenses, stock-based compensation and recoverability of our net deferred tax assets and any related valuation allowance. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates, other than the adoption of ASC 842, Leases, as described in Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We do not use derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio and have no foreign exchange contracts. Our financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents. We consider investments that, when purchased, have a remaining maturity of 90 days or less to be cash equivalents. We do not believe that a notional or hypothetical 10% change in interest rate percentages would have a material impact on the fair value of our investment portfolio.
Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.
Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer (who is also the Company’s chairman, secretary and principal executive officer), and our chief financial officer (who is also the Company’s principal financial and accounting officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Thus, in accordance with Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of May 31, 2020, which is the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, and in light of the material weaknesses found in our internal controls over financial reporting, as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
During the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019. Our remediation efforts will continue to be implemented throughout our 2020 fiscal year. We believe that the controls that we intend to implement will improve the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, we may determine to take additional steps to address the material weaknesses or to supplement or modify certain of our planned remediation measures.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

The Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of its business.

During fiscal 2019, lawsuits were filed in California federal and state court by various purported shareholders against, the Company, each of the current members of the Company’s Board of Directors, and certain of the Company’s current and former officers, alleging, among other things, federal securities law violations and/or related breaches of fiduciary duties in connection with the Company’s April 2019 restatement of certain prior period financial statements. In general, the lawsuits assert the same or similar allegations, including that the defendants artificially inflated the Company’s securities prices by knowingly making

materially false and misleading statements and omissions to the investing public about the Company’s financial statements, business, operations, management, and internal controls. These lawsuits are described below.

May v. KushCo Holdings, Inc., et al. Filed April 30, 2019. Case No. 8:19-cv-00798-JLS-KES, U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. This putative shareholder class action against the Company and certain of its current and former officers alleges violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, and seeks unspecified compensatory damages and other relief on behalf of a class of purchasers of the Company’s securities between July 13, 2017 and April 9, 2019, inclusive. In September 2019, the Court appointed co-lead plaintiffs and co-lead counsel for the plaintiffs. The lead plaintiffs’ amended complaint was filed in November 2019. In February 2020, the Company moved to dismiss the amended complaint. The motion is pending. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself against these claims.

Salsberg v. Kovacevich, et al. Filed May 24, 2019. Case No. 8:19-cv-00998-JLS-KES, U.S. District Court for the Central District of California and Neysmith v. Baum, et al. Filed May 31, 2019. Case No. 8:19-cv-01070-JLS-KES, U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. This purported shareholder derivative action against certain current and former directors and officers alleges, among other things, breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets, and unjust enrichment. The Company is named as a nominal defendant and the plaintiff seeks, among other things, corporate governance reforms, and disgorgement of profits, benefits, and compensation obtained by the defendants from the alleged conduct, to be paid to the Company. In September 2019, the Court consolidated these cases. In December 2019, the Court ordered a stay of this action pursuant to a stipulation of the parties.

Savage v. Kovacevich, et al. Filed June 14, 2019. Case No. 30-2019-01077191-CU-MC-NJC, Superior Court of California, County of Orange. This purported shareholder derivative action against certain current and former directors and officers alleges, among other things, breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets, and unjust enrichment. The Company is named as a nominal defendant and the plaintiff seeks, among other things, corporate governance reforms, and unspecified damages and restitution from the defendants, to be paid to the Company. In August 2019, the Court ordered a stay of this action pursuant to a stipulation of the parties.

Bruno, et al. v. Kovacevich, et al. Filed September 26, 2019. Case No. A-19-802660-C, Eighth Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada and Majchrzak v. Kovacevich, et al. Filed October 2, 2019. Case No. A-19-902945-B, First Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada. These purported shareholder derivative actions against certain current and former directors and officers allege, among other things, breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets, and unjust enrichment. The Company is named as a nominal defendant in each action and the plaintiffs seek, among other things, equitable relief and unspecified damages from the defendants, to be paid to the Company. In May 2020, the Company accepted service of the complaints, and the plaintiffs have indicated that they intend to move to stay each action.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.

The Company is subject to a number of risks similar to those of other companies of similar size and with a focus on serving the cannabis and CBD industries, including, the development of certain products, competition, a limited number of suppliers, integration of acquisitions, substantial indebtedness, disruptions in the U.S. and global economy and financial markets, including as a result of COVID-19, government regulations, protection of proprietary rights, and dependence on key individuals. If the Company does not successfully generate additional products and services, or if such products and services are developed but not successfully commercialized, the Company could lose revenue opportunities. Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on November 12, 2019, describes certain risk factors that could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our operations could also be affected by additional factors that are not presently known to us or by factors that we currently consider immaterial to our business. To our knowledge, except as described below, there have been no material changes in the risk factors described in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2019.
The spread of the COVID-19 outbreak has caused severe disruptions in the U.S. and global economy and financial markets and could potentially create widespread business continuity issues of an as yet unknown magnitude and duration.
The outbreak of COVID-19 has severely impacted global economic activity and caused significant volatility and negative pressure in the financial markets. The global impact of the outbreak has been rapidly evolving and many countries, including the United States, have reacted by instituting quarantines, mandating business and school closures and restricting travel. Many experts predict that the outbreak will trigger a period of global economic slowdown or a global recession. COVID-19 has had and could continue to have material and adverse effects on our ability to successfully operate due to, among other factors:
a general decline in business activity, especially as it relates to our customers’ expansion or consolidation activities;



Table of Contents
the continued classification of medical and/or recreational cannabis stores and/or dispensaries as “non-essential” in some states, which has resulted in these retail outlets having to temporarily shut down or materially adjust their operations;
the destabilization of the markets, which could negatively impact our customer growth and access to capital, along with our customers’ ability to make payments for their purchase orders;

severe disruptions to and instability in the global financial markets, and deterioration in credit and financing conditions, which could affect our access to capital necessary to fund business operations or our ability to address maturing liabilities on a timely basis on favorable terms, or at all;

the potential negative impact on the health of our personnel, or the personnel of our customers, vendors, and partners, especially if a significant number of them are impacted;

our inability to ensure business continuity during a disruption;

a material disruption in our supply chain, which has affected and could continue to affect our ability to source products from vendors on a timely basis or on favorable terms;
our potential inability to execute the 2020 Plan as planned, including the consolidation of our warehouse footprint in a timely and favorable manner, or at all;.
the potential inability or delay to use judicial proceedings for in order to collect outstanding balances from our customers.

The rapid development and fluidity of this situation makes it difficult to predict the full extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our business and operations. We continue to assess the impact of COVID-19 on our business.

incorporation, may be called at any time by the president and shall be called by the president or secretary at the request in writing of a majority of the board of directors, or at the request in writing of stockholders holding shares in the aggregate entitled to cast not less than a majority of the votes at any such meeting. The request shall be in writing, specifying the time of such meeting, the place where it is to be held and the general nature of the business proposed to be transacted, and shall be delivered personally or sent by registered mail or by telegraphic or other facsimile transmission to the chairman of the board, the president, any vice president or the secretary of the corporation.

If the notice is not given within twenty (20) days after receipt of the request, the person or persons requesting the meeting may give the notice. Nothing contained in this paragraph of this Section 3 shall be construed as limiting, fixing or affecting the time when a meeting of stockholders called by action of the board of directors may be held. Section 4. NOTICE OF STOCKHOLDERS’ MEETINGS. All notices of meetings of stockholders shall be sent or otherwise given in accordance with Section 5 of this Article II not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting being noticed.

If no such address appears on the corporation’s books or is given, notice shall be deemed to have been given if sent by mail or telegram to the corporation’s principal executive office, or if published at least once in a newspaper of general circulation in the county where this office is located. Personal delivery of any such notice to any officer of a corporation or association or to any member of a partnership shall constitute delivery of such notice to such corporation, association or partnership. Notice KushCo Holdings, Inc. Bylaws P a g e | 2


 
shall be deemed to have been given at the time when delivered personally or deposited in the mail or sent by telegram or other means of written communication. In the event of the transfer of stock after delivery or mailing of the notice of and prior to the holding of the meeting, it shall not be necessary to deliver or mail notice of the meeting to the transferee. If any notice addressed to a stockholder at the address of such stockholder appearing on the books of the corporation is returned to the corporation by the United States Postal Service marked to indicate that the United States Postal Service is unable to deliver the notice to the stockholder at such address, all future notices or reports shall be deemed to have been duly given without further mailing if the same shall be available to the stockholder upon written demand of the stockholder at the principal executive office of the corporation for a period of one year from the date of the giving of such notice. An affidavit of the mailing or other means of giving any notice of any stockholders’ meeting shall be executed by the secretary, assistant secretary or any transfer agent of the corporation giving such notice, and shall be filed and maintained in the minute book of the corporation. Business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to the purposes stated in the notice. Section 6. QUORUM. The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, except as otherwise provided by statute or the articles of incorporation. The stockholders present at a duly called or held meeting at which a quorum is present may continue to do business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum, if any action taken (other than adjournment) is approved by at least a majority of the shares required to constitute a quorum. Section 7. ADJOURNED MEETING AND NOTICE THEREOF. If a quorum is not represented, a majority of the shares represented at such meeting, either in person or by proxy, or the individual acting as chair of the meeting may adjourn the meeting from time to time until a quorum shall be represented. The individual acting as chair of the meeting may, for any or no reason, from time to time, adjourn or recess any meeting of stockholders. At any such adjourned meeting at which a quorum shall be represented, any business may be transacted which might otherwise have been transacted at the adjourned meeting as originally called. When any meeting of stockholders, either annual or special, is adjourned to another time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at a meeting at which the adjournment is taken. However, if a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, notice of the adjourned meeting must be given to each stockholder of record as of the new record date. The stockholders present at a duly convened meeting at which a quorum is present may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the departure of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum of the voting KushCo Holdings, Inc. Bylaws P a g e | 3


 
power. At any adjourned meeting the corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. Section 8. VOTING. Unless a record date set for voting purposes is fixed as provided in Section 1 of Article VIII, only persons in whose names shares entitled to vote stand on the stock records of the corporation at the close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which notice is given (or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the business day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held) shall be entitled to vote at such meeting. Any stockholder entitled to vote on any matter other than elections of directors or officers, may vote part of the shares in favor of the proposal and refrain from voting the remaining shares or vote them against the proposal, but, if the stockholder fails to specify the number of shares such stockholder is voting affirmatively, it will be conclusively presumed that the stockholder’s approving vote is with respect to all shares such stockholder is entitled to vote. Such vote may be by voice vote or by ballot; provided, however, that all elections for directors must be by ballot upon demand by a stockholder at any election and before the voting begins. Except as otherwise provided by law, the certificate of incorporation of the corporation or these bylaws, in all matters other than the election of directors, the affirmative vote of the majority of the votes cast by the shares of capital stock of the corporation present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders, provided a quorum is present. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock to elect additional directors under specific circumstances, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at a meeting of the stockholders by the holders of stock entitled to vote in the election of directors, provided a quorum is present. Every stockholder of record of the corporation shall be entitled at each meeting of stockholders to one vote for each share of stock standing in his name on the books of the corporation. Section 9. WAIVER OF NOTICE OR CONSENT BY ABSENT STOCKHOLDERS. The transactions at any meeting of stockholders, either annual or special, however called and noticed, and wherever held, shall be as valid as though had at a meeting duly held after regular call and notice, if a quorum be present either in person or by proxy, and if, either before or after the meeting, each person entitled to vote, not present in person or by proxy, signs a written waiver of notice or a consent to a holding of the meeting, or an approval of the minutes thereof. The waiver of notice or consent need not specify either the business to be transacted or the purpose of any regular or special meeting of stockholders, except that if action is taken or proposed to be taken for approval of any of those matters specified in the second paragraph of Section 4 of this Article II, the waiver of notice or consent shall state the general nature of such proposal. All such waivers, consents or approvals shall be filed with the corporate records or made a part of the minutes of the meeting. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall also constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person objects, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened, and except that KushCo Holdings, Inc. Bylaws P a g e | 4


 
attendance at a meeting is not a waiver of any right to object to the consideration of matters not included in the notice if such objection is expressly made at the meeting. Section 10. STOCKHOLDER ACTION BY WRITTEN CONSENT WITHOUT A MEETING. Any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of stockholders may be taken without a meeting and without prior notice, if a consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding shares having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted. All such consents shall be filed with the secretary of the corporation and shall be maintained in the corporate records. Any stockholder giving a written consent, or the stockholder’s proxy holders, or a transferee of the shares of a personal representative of the stockholder of their respective proxy holders, may revoke the consent by a writing received by the secretary of the corporation prior to the time that written consents of the number of shares required to authorize the proposed action have been filed with the secretary. Section 11. PROXIES. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders may authorize, in a manner permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada, another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy. Every proxy shall continue in full force and effect until its expiration or revocation in a manner permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada. No such proxy shall be valid after the expiration of six (6) months from the date of its execution, unless the stockholder specifies in it the length of time for which it is to continue in force, which may not exceed seven (7) years from the date of its execution. Subject to these restrictions, any proxy duly executed is not revoked and continues in full force and effect until an instrument revoking it or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date is filed with the Secretary of the corporation. At no time shall any proxy be valid which shall be filed less than twenty-four (24) hours before the commencement of the meeting. In the case of a meeting of stockholders, the stockholder may revoke the proxy by attending the meeting and voting the stockholder’s shares in person, in which case, any vote cast by the person or persons designated by the stockholder to act as a proxy or proxies must be disregarded by the corporation when the votes are counted. Section 12. INSPECTORS OF ELECTION. Before any meeting of stockholders, the board of directors may appoint any persons other than nominees for office to act as inspectors of election at the meeting or its adjournment. If no inspectors of election are appointed, the chairman of the meeting may, and on the request of any stockholder or his proxy shall, appoint inspectors of election at the meeting. The number of inspectors shall be either one (1) or three (3). If inspectors are appointed at a meeting on the request of one or more stockholders or proxies, the holders of a majority of shares or their proxies present at the meeting shall determine whether one (1) or three (3) inspectors are to be appointed. If any person appointed as inspector fails to appear or fails or refuses to act, the vacancy may be filled by appointment by the board of directors before the meeting, or by the chairman at the meeting. KushCo Holdings, Inc. Bylaws P a g e | 5


 
The duties of these inspectors shall be as follows: (a) Determine the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each, the shares represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum, and the authenticity, validity, and effect of proxies; (b) Receive votes, ballots, or consents; (c) Hear and determine all challenges and questions in any way arising in connection with the right to vote; (d) Count and tabulate all votes or consents; (e) Determine the election result; and (f) Do any other acts that may be proper to conduct the election or vote with fairness to all stockholders. Section 13. ADVANCE NOTICE OF STOCKHOLDERS’ NOMINATIONS AND PROPOSALS. (a) Annual Meetings. At a meeting of the stockholders, only such nominations of persons for the election of directors and such other business shall be conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly brought before an annual meeting, nominations or such other business must be: (i) specified in the notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the board of directors or any committee thereof; (ii) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the board of directors or any committee thereof; or (iii) otherwise properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder who is a stockholder of record of the corporation at the time such notice of meeting is delivered, who is entitled to vote at the meeting, and who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 13. In addition, any proposal of business (other than the nomination of persons for election to the board of directors) must be a proper matter for stockholder action. For business (including, but not limited to, director nominations) to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder pursuant to Section 13(a)(iii), the stockholder or stockholders of record intending to propose the business (the “Proposing Stockholder”) must have given timely notice thereof pursuant to this Section 13(a), in writing to the Secretary even if such matter is already the KushCo Holdings, Inc. Bylaws P a g e | 6

To be timely, a Proposing Stockholder's notice for an annual meeting must be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the corporation: (x) not later than the close of business on the 90th day, nor earlier than the close of business on the 120th day, in advance of the anniversary of the previous year's annual meeting if such meeting is to be held on a day which is not more than 30 days in advance of the anniversary of the previous year's annual meeting or not later than 60 days after the anniversary of the previous year's annual meeting; and (y) with respect to any other annual meeting of stockholders, including in the event that no annual meeting was held in the previous year, not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to the annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of: (1) the 90th day prior to the annual meeting and (2) the close of business on the tenth day following the first date of Public Disclosure of the date of such meeting. In no event shall the Public Disclosure of an adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting commence a new notice time period (or extend any notice time period). For the purposes of this Section 13, “Public Disclosure” shall mean a disclosure made in a press release reported by the Dow Jones News Services, The Associated Press, or a comparable national news service or in a document filed by the corporation with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) pursuant to Section 13, 14, or 15(d) of Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Exchange Act”) (b) Stockholder Nominations. For the nomination of any person or persons for election to the board of directors pursuant to Section 13(a)(iii) or Section 13(d), a Proposing Stockholder's notice to the Secretary shall set forth or include: (i) the principal occupation or employment of each such nominee; (ii) the name, age, business address, and residence address of each nominee proposed in such notice; (iii) the class and number of shares of capital stock of the corporation which are owned of record and beneficially by each such nominee (if any); (iv) such other information concerning each such nominee as would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement soliciting proxies for the election of such nominee as a director in an election contest (even if an election contest is not involved) or that is otherwise required to be disclosed, under Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act; (v) a written questionnaire with respect to the background and qualification of such proposed nominee (which questionnaire shall be provided by the Secretary upon written request) and a written statement and agreement executed by each such nominee acknowledging that such person: KushCo Holdings, Inc.
