9A. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure
Controls and Procedures
Our
management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as
such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Report.
These
controls are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit pursuant to the Exchange Act
is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information
is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Based
on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2021,
at reasonable assurance levels.
We
believe that our financial statements presented in this Report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results
of operations, and cash flows for all periods presented herein.
Our
management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud.
A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives
of the control system are met. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of
future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must
be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide
absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations
include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdown can occur because of simple error or mistake.
In particular, many of our current processes rely upon manual reviews and processes to ensure that neither human error nor system weakness
has resulted in erroneous reporting of financial data.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There
were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, which were identified
in conjunction with management’s evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Management
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f)
or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Those rules define internal control over financial reporting as a process designed to
provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
●
Pertain
to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets
of the Company;
●
Provide
reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles, and the receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with
authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and
●
Provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisitions, use or disposition of the company’s
assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because
of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation
of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that
the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management
assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021. In making this assessment, our management
used the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of
the Treadway Commission (COSO).
This
Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.
Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the
SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Report.

Opinion
on the Financial Statements
We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of urban-gro, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2021 and
2020, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for each
of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”).
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December
31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2021,
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Basis
for Opinion
These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s
financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal
securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company
is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits
we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion
on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our
audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error
or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTE
1 – ORGANIZATION AND ACQUISITIONS, BUSINESS PLAN, AND LIQUIDITY
Organization
urban-gro,
Inc. (“our,” the “Company,”
or “urban-gro”) is a leading architectural, engineering, consulting and design services company focused on the sustainable
commercial indoor horticulture market. To serve our horticulture clients, we engineer and design indoor controlled environment agriculture
(“CEA”) facilities and then integrate complex environmental equipment systems into those facilities. Through this work, we
create high-performance indoor cultivation facilities for our clients to grow specialty crops, including leafy greens, vegetables, herbs,
and plant-based medicines. Our custom-tailored approach to design, procurement, and equipment integration provides a single point of
accountability across all aspects of indoor growing operations. We also help our clients achieve operational efficiency and economic
advantages through a full spectrum of professional services and programs focused on facility optimization and environmental health which
establish facilities that allow clients to manage, operate and perform at the highest level throughout their entire cultivation lifecycle
once they are up and running. We also serve a broad range of commercial and governmental entities, providing them with planning, consulting,
architectural and engineering design services for their facilities.
We
aim to work with our clients from inception of their project in a way that provides value throughout the life of their facility. We are
a trusted partner and advisor to our clients and offer a complete set of engineering and managed services complemented by a vetted suite
of select cultivation equipment systems.
Acquisitions
On June 28, 2021, the Company’s wholly-owned
subsidiary urban-gro Architect Holdings, LLC (the “Buyer”), and the 2WRCO Shareholders, the 2WRGA Shareholders,
the MJ12 Shareholders, and the 2WRMS Shareholders (collectively, the “Sellers” and each a “Seller”), and
Sam Andras, an individual (the “Sellers Representative”) entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase
Agreement”), pursuant to which the Buyer would purchase all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of 2WR of Colorado, Inc.,
a Colorado corporation (“2WRCO”), 2WR of Georgia, Inc., a Georgia corporation (“2WRGA”), MJ12 Design Studio,
Inc., a Colorado corporation (“MJ12”) (collectively, the “Purchased Shares”) from the Sellers. In connection
with the acquisition of the Purchased Shares, Buyer entered into an affiliate relationship with 2WR of Mississippi, P.C., a Mississippi
professional corporation (“2WRMS” and together with 2WRCO, 2WRGA and MJ12, the “2WR Entities”). The transaction
closed on July 30, 2021.
The
Purchased Shares had an initial purchase price of up to $ 7.1 million, which purchase price is subject to customary working capital adjustments
(the “Purchase Price”). At closing, the Purchase Price was paid in the form of wire transfer of immediately available funds
and the issuance of unregistered shares (the “Closing Payment Shares”) of Parent’s common stock, par value $ 0.001 (“Parent
Common Stock”), which Closing Payment Shares had an aggregate stated value of $ 2.0 million. Additionally, the Purchase Agreement
provides for additional earnout payments (“Earnout Payments”) to the Sellers of up to an aggregate amount of $ 2.0 million,
payable in cash or unregistered shares of Parent Common Stock in the Buyer’s sole discretion. The Earnout Payments are payable
quarterly for a two-year period and will be equal to twenty percent of the Target Companies’ Quarterly Gross Profit (as defined
in the Purchase Agreement) . The value of the shares of Parent Common Stock issued in the transaction was determined based upon the daily
volume weighted average closing price of the Parent Common Stock in the ten trading days prior to the issuance of such shares. The Company
accounted for the acquisition of the Target Companies as follows:

The
following pro forma amounts reflect the Company’s results as if the acquisition of the 2WR Entities had occurred on January 1,
2020. These pro forma amounts have been calculated
after applying the Company’s accounting policies and adjusting the results of the acquisition to reflect the additional
amortization of intangibles.

market for the Company.
Liquidity
and Going Concern
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates
realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business within one year after the date the consolidated
financial statements are available to be issued.
NOTE
2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Use
of Estimates
In
preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial
statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates
include estimated revenues earned under professional service contracts, estimated useful lives and potential impairment of long-lived
assets and goodwill, inventory write offs, allowance for deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, and allowance for bad debt.
Reclassification
Certain
prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on
the reported results of operations.
Business
Combinations
Acquisitions
of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at
fair value, which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition date fair values of the assets transferred, liabilities incurred to the
former owners of the acquired entities and the equity interests issued in exchange for control of the acquired entities. Acquisition
related costs are recognized in net income (loss) as incurred.
Basis
of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
These consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of urban-gro, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. They are presented in United States dollars and have been prepared
in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). On December 31, 2020, we effected a 1-for-6
reverse stock split with respect to our common stock. All share and per share information in these consolidated financial statements
gives effect to this reverse stock split, including restating prior period reported amounts. On July 30, 2021, we acquired 2WR of Colorado,
Inc., 2WR of Georgia, Inc. and MJ12 Design Studio, Inc. (“2WR”), entities that had common ownership and management. We have
accounted for the business combination by applying the acquisition method of accounting (ASC 805-10-25).
Functional
and reporting currency and foreign currency translation
The
functional and reporting currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is US dollars. All transactions in currencies other than US dollars
are translated into US dollars on the date of the transaction. Any exchange gains and losses related to these transactions are recognized
in the current period earnings as other income (expense).
F- 8
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, notes
payable and other current assets and liabilities. We value our financial assets and liabilities using fair value measurements. Fair value
is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are categorized based on whether the inputs are observable
in the market and the degree that the inputs are observable. The categorization of financial instruments within the valuation hierarchy
is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy is prioritized into three levels
(with Level 3 being the lowest) defined as follows:
Level
1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access.
Level
2: Observable inputs other than 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 with observable market data.
Level
3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and
liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, and similar techniques that use significant unobservable
inputs.
The
carrying amount of our cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other current assets and liabilities in
our consolidated financial statements approximates fair value because of the short-term nature of the instruments. Investments in non-marketable
equity securities are carried at cost less other-than-temporary impairments. The carrying amount of our notes payable and convertible
debt at December 31, 2021 and 2020 approximates their fair values based on our incremental borrowing rates.
There
have been no changes in Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 categorizations and no changes in valuation techniques for these assets or liabilities
for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid short-term cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company did not maintain any cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash with financial institutions
that may from time to time exceed federally-insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses related to these balances and
believes the risk to be minimal. There are no restricted or compensating cash balances as of December 31, 2021.
Accounts
Receivable, Net
Trade Accounts Receivable
Trade
accounts receivables are carried at the original invoiced amounts less an allowance for doubtful accounts. As of December 31, 2021 and
2020, the balance of allowance for doubtful accounts was $ 51,203 and $ 15,955 , respectively. The allowances for doubtful accounts are
calculated based on a detailed review of certain individual customer accounts and an estimation of the overall economic conditions affecting
the Company’s customer base. The Company reviews a customer’s credit history before extending credit to the customer. If
the financial condition of its customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additions
to the allowance would be required. A provision is made against accounts receivable to the extent they are considered unlikely to be
collected. Occasionally the Company will write off bad debt directly to the bad debt expense account when the balance is determined to
be uncollectable. Bad debt expense for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $ 75,137 and $ 58,849 , respectively.
Non-trade Accounts Receivable
Non-trade accounts receivables consist of payments
due to the Company outside of our normal operating business. At December 31, 2021, the Company had $ 5,103,132 of litigation receivable
from fraudulent wire transactions.
Inventories
Inventories,
consisting entirely of finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined using the weighted
average cost method. The Company periodically reviews the value of items in inventory and provides write-downs or write-offs of inventory
based on its assessment of market conditions. Write-downs and write-offs are charged to cost of goods sold at the realization of change
in value. Once written down, inventories are carried at this lower basis until sold or scrapped.
F- 9
Property,
Plant, and Equipment, net
Property
and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment. Expenditures for major additions and improvements are capitalized
and minor replacements, maintenance, and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When property and equipment is retired or otherwise
disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results
of operations for the respective period. Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets using the straight-line
method for financial statement purposes. The Company uses other depreciation methods (generally accelerated) for tax purposes where appropriate.
No impairment charges were recorded for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.
The
estimated useful lives for significant property and equipment categories are as follows:
SCHEDULE
OF PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Computer
and Technology Equipment
3
years
Furniture
and Equipment
5
years
Leasehold
Improvements
Lease
term
Vehicles
3
years
Other
Equipment

or 5 years
Software
3
years
Operating
Lease Right of Use Assets
Operating
lease right of use assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, amortization and impairment. The Company has two operating
leases with an imputed annual interest rate of 8 %.
The term of the first lease
is 36 months commencing on September 1, 2021 and ending on August 31, 2024 while the term of the second lease is
43 months commencing on January 1, 2022 and ending on July 31, 2025.
Intangible
Assets
The
Company’s intangible assets, consist of legal fees for application of patents and trademarks and license fees paid for inspection
services, as well as customer relationships, trademarks and trade names and backlog related to the acquisition of 2WR. All intangibles
are recorded at cost and once approved, are amortized using the straight-line method over an estimated life, generally 5
years for patents, 10
to 20
years for trademarks, and 1 year for backlog.
License fees are amortized over 10
years. Intangible assets are reported in the
“Intangible Asset” line on the balance sheet.
Goodwill
Goodwill
represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized
but is tested for impairment annually as of December 31 and at any time when events or circumstances suggest impairment may have occurred.
The
testing for impairment consists of a comparison of the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount
of the reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds the fair value, an impairment will be recognized equal to the difference between the
carrying value of the reporting unit’s goodwill and the implied fair value of the goodwill. In testing goodwill for impairment,
we determine the estimated fair value of our reporting units based upon a discounted future cash flow analysis. Goodwill is our only
indefinite-lived intangible asset. Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of
their contractual term or estimated useful lives.
Impairment
of Long-lived Assets
The
Company evaluates potential impairment of long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount
of an asset may not be recoverable. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted
cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. An impairment will be recognized as the amount by which
the carrying amount of a long-lived asset exceeds its fair value.
F- 10
Investments
Investments
without readily determinable fair values and for which the Company does not have the ability to exercise significant influence are accounted
for at cost with adjustments for observable changes in prices or impairments.
Convertible
Notes
The
Company accounts for its convertible notes at issuance by allocating the proceeds received from a convertible note among freestanding
instruments according to ASC 470, Debt, based upon their relative fair values. The fair value of debt and common stock was determined
based on the closing price of the common stock on the date of the transaction, and the fair value of warrants was determined using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Convertible notes were subsequently carried at amortized cost. The fair value of the warrants is
recorded as additional paid-in capital, with a corresponding amount recorded as a debt discount from the face amount of the convertible
note. Each convertible note was analyzed for the existence of a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”), defined as the fair
value of the common stock at the commitment date for the convertible note, less the effective conversion price. BCFs were recognized
at their intrinsic value, and recorded as an increase to additional paid-in capital, with a corresponding reduction in the carrying amount
of the convertible note (as a debt discount from the face amount of the convertible note). The discounts on the convertible notes, consisting
of amounts ascribed to warrants and beneficial conversion features, is amortized to interest expense, using the effective interest method,
over the terms of the related convertible notes. BCFs that are contingent upon the occurrence of a future event are recorded when the
contingency is resolved.
Revenue
Recognition
The
Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires that five basic steps
be followed to recognize revenue: (1) a legally enforceable contract that meets criterial standards as to composition and substance is
identified; (2) performance obligations relating to provision of goods or services to the customer are identified; (3) the transaction
price, with consideration given to any variable, noncash, or other relevant consideration, is determined; (4) the transaction price is
allocated to the performance obligations; and (5) revenue is recognized when control of goods or services is transferred to the customer
with consideration given to whether that control happens over time or not. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on our management’s
judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the services and products delivered and the collectability of those amounts.
Our
equipment systems, services and consumable product revenues arise from contracts with customers. Service revenues include full facility
programming, architectural and engineering design services, start-up commissioning services, and facility optimization services. Product
revenues include an integrated suite of select cultivation equipment systems and consumable crop management products. We enter into separate
contracts for the service and product revenues we provide to our customers in order to clarify our obligations under the terms of the
contracts. New contracts are entered into if the services to be performed or products to be delivered need to be modified. Service revenues
are satisfied when services are rendered or completed in accordance with the terms of the contract. Product revenues are satisfied when
control of the products is transferred to the customer.
Customer
Deposits
The
Company’s policy is to collect deposits from customers at the beginning of the contract. The customer payments received are recorded
as a customer deposit liability on the balance sheet. When the contract is complete and meets all the criteria for revenue recognition,
the customer is billed for the entire contract amount and the deposit is recorded against the customer’s receivable balance. In
certain situations when the customer has paid the deposit and services have been performed but the customer chooses not to proceed with
the contract, the Company may keep the deposit and recognize revenue. Of the outstanding customer deposit balance of $ 4,878,863 at December
31, 2020, $ 4,813,564 was recognized as revenue in the year ended December 31, 2021. The entire customer deposit balance of $ 2,915,406
at December 31, 2019 was recognized as revenue in the year ended December 31, 2020.
F- 11
Cost
of Revenue
The
Company’s policy is to recognize cost of revenues in the same manner as, and in conjunction with, revenue recognition. The Company’s
cost of revenues includes the costs directly attributable to revenue recognized and includes expenses related to the purchasing of products
and providing services, fees for third-party commissions and shipping costs. Total shipping costs included in the cost of goods sold
for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 were $ 1,253,506 and $ 790,996 , respectively.
Advertising
Costs
The
Company expenses advertising costs in the periods the costs are incurred. Prepayments made under contracts are included in prepaid expenses
and expensed when the advertisement is run. Total advertising expense incurred for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $ 263,609
and $ 174,131 , respectively.
Warrants
The
Company estimates the fair value of these warrants at the respective balance sheet dates using the Black-Scholes option pricing based
on the estimated market value of the underlying common stock at the valuation measurement date, the remaining contractual term, risk-free
interest rate, and expected volatility of the price of the underlying common stock. There is a moderate degree of subjectivity involved
when using option pricing models to estimate the warrants and the assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model are moderately
judgmental.
Stock-Based
Compensation
The
Company periodically issues shares of its common stock and stock options to employees and consultants in non-capital raising transactions
for fees and services. The Company accounts for stock issued to non-employees with the value of the stock compensation based upon the
measurement date as determined at the grant date of the award.
The
Company accounts for stock grants issued and vesting to employees with the award being measured at its fair value at the date of grant
and amortized ratably over the vesting period.
Income
Taxes
The
Company files income federal tax returns in the United States and Canada and state and local tax returns in applicable jurisdictions.
Provisions for current income tax liabilities, if any, would be calculated and accrued on income and expense amounts expected to be included
in the income tax returns for the current year. Income taxes reported in earnings, if any, would also include deferred income tax provisions.
Deferred
income tax assets and liabilities, if any, would be computed on differences between the financial statement bases of assets and liabilities
at the enacted tax rates. Changes in deferred income tax assets and liabilities would be included as a component of income tax expense.
The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities attributable to changes in enacted tax rates would be charged or credited to
income tax expense in the period of enactment. Valuation allowances would be established for certain deferred tax assets when realization
is not likely.
Assets
and liabilities would be established for uncertain tax positions taken or positions expected to be taken in income tax returns when such
positions, in the judgment of the Company, do not meet a more-likely-than-not threshold based on the technical merits of the positions.
Valuation allowances would be established for certain deferred tax assets when realization is not likely.
Loss
Per Share
The
Company computes net loss per share by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share would be computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average of all potentially
dilutive shares of common stock that were outstanding during the periods presented. The diluted earnings per share calculation is not
presented as it results in an anti-dilutive calculation of net loss per share.
F- 12
The
treasury stock method would be used to calculate diluted earnings per share for potentially dilutive stock options and share purchase
warrants. This method assumes that any proceeds received from the exercise of in-the-money stock options and share purchase warrants
would be used to purchase common shares at the average market price for the period.
Recently
Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
From
time to time, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) or other standards setting bodies issue new accounting
pronouncements. The FASB issues updates to new accounting pronouncements through the issuance of an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”).
Unless otherwise discussed, the Company believes that the impact of recently issued guidance, whether adopted or to be adopted in the
future, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.
In
June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial
Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). This update replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology with a methodology that reflects
expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss
estimates. This update is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, with a modified-retrospective approach.
The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In
August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06—Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and
Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)—Accounting For Convertible Instruments and Contracts in
an Entity’s Own Equity. ASU 2020-06 simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required
under current GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument with no separate
accounting for embedded conversion features. ASU 2020-06 removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts
to qualify for the derivative scope exception, which will permit more equity contracts to qualify for it. ASU 2020-06 also simplifies
the diluted net income per share calculation in certain areas. The new guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning
after December 15, 2021, and early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within
those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this new guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.
NOTE
3 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
In
October 2018, we issued a $ 1,000,000 unsecured note payable to Cloud9 Support Inc. (“Cloud9 Support”), an entity owned by
James Lowe, a director of the Company, which originally became due April 30, 2019 (the “James Lowe Note”). The James Lowe
Note was personally guaranteed by Bradley Nattrass, our Chief Executive Officer, and Octavio Gutierrez. The loan had a one-time origination
fee of $ 12,500 . Interest accrued at the rate of 12 % per annum and was paid monthly. As additional consideration for the James Lowe Note,
we granted Mr. Lowe (as designee of Cloud9 Support) an option to purchase 5,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $ 7.20
per share, which option is exercisable for a period of five years . The due date for the James Lowe Note was extended in May 2019 to December
31, 2019 and the interest rate was decreased to 9 % per year. In consideration for Cloud9 Support extending the maturity date of the note
and reducing the interest rate, we issued 1,667 shares of our common stock to Mr. Lowe (as designee of Cloud9 Support).
On
February 21, 2020, we entered into an agreement to amend the James Lowe Note to extend the maturity date of therein from December 31,
2019 to the date which is the earlier of 60 days following the date: (a) on which demand for repayment is made by the lenders under the
Credit Agreement, as described in Note 10, (which is now only applicable in the case of an event of default under the Credit Agreement
because of the removal of the demand feature pursuant to the First Amendment to the Credit Agreement); or (b) which is the maturity date
under the Credit Agreement.
F- 13
In
addition, on February 25, 2020, the Company entered into a subordination, postponement and standstill agreement with Cloud9 Support (the
“Subordination Agreement”) pursuant to which Cloud9 Support agreed to postpone and subordinate all payments due under the
promissory note until the facilities under the Credit Agreement have been fully and finally repaid. The term for the Subordination Agreement
will continue in force as long as the Company is indebted to the agent or lenders under the Credit Agreement. In consideration for Cloud9
Support’s agreement to extend the maturity date of the promissory note and to enter into the Subordination Agreement, we issued
16,667 shares of common stock to Mr. Lowe (as designee of Cloud9 Support).
On
December 15, 2020, James Lowe agreed to convert the $ 1,000,000 James Lowe Note plus $ 4,500 of accrued interest (the “New James
Lowe Note”) into a convertible note bridge financing (see “Bridge Financing” in Note 9 – Notes Payable). The
New James Lowe Note carries interest at the rate of 12 % and matures on December 31, 2021. The New James Lowe Note will be mandatorily
converted into shares of our common stock upon the closing of a qualified offering, at 75% of the per share price paid by investors in
a qualified offering .
The
Company has purchased goods from Cloud 9 Support. Purchases from Cloud 9 Support were $ 0 and $ 0 during the years ended 2021 and 2020,
respectively. Cloud 9 Support also purchases materials from the Company for use with their customers. Total sales to Cloud 9 Support

On
February 21, 2020, we entered into a letter agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) by and among the Company, as borrower, urban-gro
Canada Technologies Inc. and Impact., as guarantors, the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”), and Bridging Finance Inc.,
as administrative agent for the Lenders (the “Agent”). The Credit Agreement, which was denominated in Canadian dollars (C$),
was comprised of (i) a 12-month senior secured demand term loan facility in the amount of C$ 2.7 million ($ 2.0 million), which was funded
in its entirety on the closing date (the “Term Loan”); and (ii) a 12-month demand revolving credit facility of up to C$ 5.4
million ($ 4.0 million), which could be drawn from time to time, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement
and described further below (the “Revolving Facility,” and together with the Term Loan, the “Facilities”). The
Credit Agreement was personally guaranteed by the Company’s CEO and Chairman, Brad Nattrass, and was to be in place for the original
term of the Credit Agreement (1 year) plus a 1-year extension period at the discretion of the Lender as provided in the Credit Agreement.
The
final maturity date of the Facilities was initially stipulated in the Credit Agreement as the earlier of (i) demand, and (ii) the date
that is 12 months after the closing date, with a potential extension to the date that is 24 months after the closing date (the “Initial
Maturity Date”). The Facilities bore interest at the annual rate established and designated by the Bank of Nova Scotia as the prime
rate, plus 11% per annum. Accrued interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Facilities was due and payable monthly in arrears,
on the last business day of each month, and on the Initial Maturity Date.
F- 17
The
Revolving Facility could initially be borrowed and re-borrowed on a revolving basis by the Company during the term of the Facilities,
provided that borrowings under the Revolving Facility were limited by a loan availability formula equal to the sum of (i) 90% of insured
accounts receivable, (ii) 85% of investment grade receivables, (iii) 75% of other accounts receivable, (iv) 50% of eligible inventory,
and (v) the lesser of C$4.05 million ($3.0 million) and (A) 75% of uncollected amounts on eligible signed equipment orders for equipment
systems contracts and (B) 85% of uncollected amounts on eligible signed professional services order forms for design contracts. The Revolving
Facility could be prepaid in part or in full without a penalty at any time during the term of the Facilities, and the Term Loan could
be prepaid in full or in part without penalty subject to 60 days prior notice in each case subject to certain customary conditions.
On
September 4, 2020, the Company executed an amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment”) whereas the Facilities
described above were due on December 31, 2021 (the “Revised Maturity Date”). The First Amendment also increased the rate
at which the Facilities would bear interest to the annual rate established and designated by the Bank of Nova Scotia as the prime rate,
plus 12 % per annum.
As
a result of the First Amendment, the Company was required to prepay, on or before January 31, 2021, $ 1,000,000 of the balance of the
Term Loan and begin making monthly payments of $ 100,000 on the balance on the Term Loan starting on March 1, 2021. Additionally, the
Company was required to make monthly payments of $ 50,000 on the balance under the Revolving Facility beginning October 1, 2020 and could
make no more draws under the Revolving Facility.
The
Company incurred $ 1,314,868 of debt issuance costs in connection with these Facilities, of which $ 676,822 was non-cash in the form of
Common Stock and warrant issuances. The Company estimated the fair value of these warrants at the respective balance sheet dates using
the Black-Scholes option pricing based on the market value of the underlying Common Stock at the valuation measurement date of $ 6.00 ,
the remaining contractual terms of the warrants of 5 years, risk free interest rate of 1.14 % an expected volatility of the price of the
underlying Common Stock of 100 %. The Company recorded the debt issuance costs as either a deferred financing asset or a direct reduction
of the loan obligation based on the pro-rata value of the Revolving Facility and Term Loan, respectively, on the closing date. The debt
issuance costs were being amortized as interest expense over the life of the Facilities, until the Revised Maturity Date. On February
17, 2021, the Company repaid all amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement and expensed the remaining unamortized debt issuance
costs as loss on extinguishment of debt. As of December 31, 2020, there were $ 504,644 and $ 252,322 of unamortized debt issuance costs
remaining related to the Revolving Facility and Term Loan, respectively.

Concentration
Risk
During
the year ended December 31, 2021, one client represented 46 %
of total revenue. During the year ended December 31, 2020 the same client represented 25 %
of total revenue and another client represented 13 % of total revenue. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, one client represented
41 %
and 23 % of total outstanding accounts receivables, respectively. At December 31, 2020, a separate client represented 17 %
of total outstanding accounts receivables.
During
the year ended December 31, 2021, one vendor represented 15 %
total purchases. During the year ended December 31, 2020, a one vendor represented 13 % of total purchases. At December
31, 2021, one vendor represented 33 %
of total accounts payable. At December 31, 2020, a separate vendor represented 38 %
of total accounts payable.
Foreign
Exchange Risk
Although
our revenues and expenses are expected to be predominantly denominated in United States dollars, we may be exposed to currency exchange
fluctuations. Recent events in the global financial markets have been coupled with increased volatility in the currency markets. Fluctuations
in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar, the Canadian dollar, the Euro, the Swiss franc, and the currency of other regions in which
we may operate may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results. We may, in the future,
establish a program to hedge a portion of our foreign currency exposure with the objective of minimizing the impact of adverse foreign
currency exchange movements. However, even if we develop a hedging program, there can be no assurance that it will effectively mitigate
currency risks.
NOTE
13 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Stock-based
compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 was $ 1,840,913 and
$ 1,803,403 ,
respectively based on the vesting schedule of the stock grants and options. During the year ended December 31, 2021, 122,629 shares
vested and were issued to employees and directors. During the year ended December 31, 2020, 62,358 shares vested and were issued
to employees and directors. No cash flow effects are anticipated for stock grants.
In
January 2017, the Company began granting stock to attract, retain, and reward employees with Common Stock. Stock grants are offered as
part of the employment offer package, to ensure continuity of employment or as a reward for performance. Each of these grants requires
a specific tenure of employment before the grant vests with typical vesting periods of 1 to 3 years of employment.
In
January 2018, the Company implemented an equity incentive plan to reward and attract employees and compensate vendors for services when
applicable. Stock options are offered as part of an employment offer package, to ensure continuity of service or as a reward for performance.
The stock option plan authorizes 500,000 shares of common stock.
In
May 2019, the Company adopted a new equity incentive plan, authorizing an aggregate of 588,333 shares of Common Stock for issuance thereunder.
Stock grants under the equity incentive programs are valued at the price of the stock on the date of grant. The fair value of the options
is calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model based on the estimated market value of the underlying common stock at the valuation
measurement date $ 6.00 , the remaining contractual term of the options of 5 years, risk-free interest rate of 1.92 % and expected volatility
of the price of the underlying common stock of 100 %. There is a moderate degree of subjectivity involved when estimating the value of
stock options with the Black-Scholes option pricing model as the assumptions used are moderately judgmental. Stock grants and stock options
are sometimes offered as part of an employment offer package, to ensure continuity of service or as a reward for performance. Stock grants
and stock options typically require a 1 to 3 year period of continued employment or service performance before the stock grant or stock
option vests.

NOTE
15 – INCOME TAXES
The
Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the asset and liability method prescribed in ASC 740, “Accounting for Income
Taxes”. The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 740-10-25, which provides recognition criteria and a related measurement
model for uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns. ASC 740-10-25 requires that a position taken or
expected to be taken in a tax return be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not that the position would
be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not threshold are then measured using
a probability weighted approach recognizing the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon
ultimate settlement. The Company had no tax positions relating to open income tax returns that were considered to be uncertain.
The
Company has experienced losses for both book and tax purposes since inception. The Company recorded no tax provisions for the
year ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. The potential future recovery of any tax assets that the Company may be entitled to due
to these accumulated losses is uncertain and any tax assets that that the Company may be entitled to have been fully reserved based on
management’s current estimates. Management intends to continue maintaining a full valuation allowance on the Company’s deferred
tax assets until there is sufficient evidence to support the reversal of all or some portion of these allowances.
As
of December 31, 2021, the Company had approximately $ 10,024,417 of operating loss carryforwards for United States tax purposes,
expiring as follows:
●
$ 2,182,354
expiring in 2037
●
$ 7,842,063
with no expiration
Realization
of operating loss carryforwards to offset future operating income for tax purposes are subject to various limitations including change
of ownership and current year taxable income percentage limitations.
F- 21
The
Company has no credit carryforwards for tax purposes.
The
Company’s primary filing jurisdictions are the United States and Canada. Due to the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards,
the Company’s income tax returns remain subject to examination by federal, foreign and most state taxing authorities for all tax
years.

The
fair value of the options is calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model based on the estimated market value of the underlying common
stock at the valuation measurement date $ 10.00 , the remaining contractual term of the options of 5 years, risk-free interest rate of
.57 % and expected volatility of the price of the underlying common stock of 100 %. There is a moderate degree of subjectivity involved
when estimating the value of warrants with the Black-Scholes option pricing model as the assumptions used are moderately judgmental.
The
weighted-average life of the warrants is 3.07 years. The aggregate intrinsic value of the warrants outstanding and exercisable at December
31, 2021 is $ 0 .
