KAIVAL
BRANDS INNOVATIONS GROUP, INC.
Notes
to Unaudited Financial Statements
Note
1 – Organization and Description of Business
Kaival Brands
Innovations Group, Inc. (the “Company,” the “Registrant,” “we,” “us,” or “our”),
formerly known as Quick Start Holdings, Inc., was incorporated on September 4, 2018 in the State of Delaware.
USSE Corp.
and USSE Delaware Merger
USSE Corp.,
a Nevada Corporation (“USSE Nevada”), formerly known as Quick Start Holdings, Inc., was incorporated with the Nevada
Secretary of State on July 8, 1998 under the original name C&A Restaurants, Inc. (“C&A Restaurants”). On June
15, 2009, C&A Restaurants changed its name to USSE Corp.
Effective September
19, 2018, USSE Nevada re-domiciled from Nevada to Delaware pursuant to a merger of USSE Nevada with and into USSE Delaware, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation (“USSE Delaware”), with USSE Delaware as the surviving entity (the “Re-domestication
Merger”). Each share of USSE Nevada’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective date
of the Re-domestication Merger was automatically converted into one fully paid and nonassessable share of USSE Delaware.
Immediately
following the Re-domestication Merger, USSE Delaware was authorized to issue up to 1,005,000,000 shares, which consisted of: (i)
1,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which 66,397,574 shares were issued and outstanding at such
date; (ii) 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which (a) 1,000,000 shares were designated as Convertible
Series A, all of which were issued and outstanding at that date; and (b) 500,000 shares were designated as Convertible Series
B, of which 71,700 Convertible Series B preferred shares were issued and outstanding at that date.
Holding
Company Reorganization
On September
4, 2018, USSE Delaware acquired 1,000 shares of common stock of the Company, which represented 100% of the Company’s then-outstanding
shares of common stock, for no consideration, resulting in the Company becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of USSE Delaware. Also,
immediately prior to the Holding Company Reorganization (as defined below), USSE Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“USSE
Merger Sub”), was the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary.
On September
19, 2018 (the “Effective Time”), and in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 251(g) of the Delaware
General Corporation Law (“DGCL”), USSE Merger Sub, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of USSE Delaware and the Company’s
direct wholly-owned subsidiary merged with and into USSE Delaware, the Company’s then parent (the “Holding Company
Reorganization”). USSE Delaware was the surviving corporation and the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary. USSE Delaware
also changed its name to USSE Corp. following the Holding Company Reorganization.
Upon completion
of the Holding Company Reorganization, by virtue of the merger, and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, each
share of USSE Delaware’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Holding Company
Reorganization was automatically converted into one validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable share of the Company’s
common stock. Additionally, each share of USSE Delaware’s preferred stock issued and outstanding immediately prior
to the Effective Time was converted into one validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable share of the Company’s preferred
stock, having the same designations, rights, powers, and preferences, and the qualifications, limitations, and restrictions thereof,
as the corresponding share of USSE Delaware’s preferred stock. Each share of the Company’s common stock issued
and outstanding and held by USSE Delaware immediately prior to the Effective Time was cancelled.
This resulted
in the Company being authorized to issue up to 1,005,000,000 shares, which consisted of: (i) 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock,
par value $0.001 per share, of which 66,397,574 shares were issued and outstanding; (ii) 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock,
par value $0.001 per share, of which (a) 1,000,000 shares were designated as Convertible Series A, all of which were issued and
outstanding; and (b) 500,000 shares were designated as Convertible Series B, of which 71,700 shares of Convertible Series B preferred
stock were issued and outstanding.
6
Post-Holding Company Reorganization
On October 19,
2018, the Company issued 500,000,000 shares of restricted common stock and 400,000 shares of Convertible Series B Preferred Stock
to GMRZ Holdings LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (“GRMZ”), for services rendered to the Company.
Commensurate
with the filing of the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State
on October 22, 2018, every issued and outstanding share of Convertible Series A preferred stock was converted into 1.25 shares
of common stock with shareholders’ economic rights preserved. Additionally, at the same time, every share of Convertible
Series B preferred stock, issued and outstanding was converted into ten shares of common stock with stockholders’ economic
rights adversely affected in the conversion. Immediately following the conversion of the aforementioned shares, and upon filing
of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, the authorized and unissued shares of Convertible Series A and Convertible
Series B preferred stock were cancelled. As of October 22, 2018, Convertible Series A and Series B preferred stock were removed
from the status of authorized but unissued preferred stock.
On February
6, 2019, the Company entered into a non-binding Share Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”), by and among the Company,
GMRZ, and Kaival Holdings, LLC (formerly known as Kaival Brands Innovations Group, LLC), a Delaware limited liability company
(formerly known as Kaival Brands Innovations Group, LLC) (“KH”), pursuant to which, on February 20, 2019, GMRZ sold
504,000,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock, representing approximately 88.06 percent of the Company’s
issued and outstanding shares of common stock, to KH, and KH paid GMRZ consideration in the amount set forth in the Agreement
(the “Purchase Price”). The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement resulted in a change in
control of the Company, with KH becoming the Company’s largest controlling stockholder. The sole voting members of KH are
Nirajkumar Patel and Eric Mosser. The Purchase Price was paid with personal funds of the members of KH.
Effective July
12, 2019, we changed our corporate name from Quick Start Holdings, Inc. to Kaival Brands Innovations Group, Inc. The name change
was effected through a parent/subsidiary short-form merger of Kaival Brands Innovations Group, Inc., our wholly-owned Delaware
subsidiary formed solely for the purpose of the name change, with and into us. We were the surviving entity.
On the effective
date of the merger, our name was changed to “Kaival Brands Innovations Group, Inc.” and our Amended and Restated Certificate
of Incorporation, as amended (the “Charter”), was further amended to reflect our new legal name. There were no other
changes to our Charter.
Share Cancellation and Exchange Agreement
On August 19, 2020, the Company entered into
a Share Cancellation and Exchange Agreement (the “Share Cancellation and Exchange Agreement”) with its controlling
stockholder, KH.
Pursuant to the
Share Cancellation and Exchange Agreement, KH returned to the Company 300,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the
“Cancellation Shares”), which Cancellation Shares were cancelled and retired by the Company. Following such cancellation,
KH owns 204,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.
On
August 19, 2020, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights, and Limitations of the Series A Preferred
Stock (the “Series A Certificate of Designation”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, which authorized
a total of 3,000,000 shares, par value $0.01 per share, of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock ”).
All series of preferred stock, whether now or hereafter designated,
may by their respective terms have a preference over the Series A Preferred Stock in respect of distribution upon liquidation,
dividends, or any other right or matter. The number of shares so designated is three million (3,000,000)
shares, par value $0.001 per share, and such amount cannot be increased except by the favorable vote or the written consent of
the holders of at least a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock or by a resolution of the
Board of Directors. Such number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock may be decreased by the written consent of the holders of
at least a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock or by a resolution of the Board of Directors; provided, however,
that no decrease shall reduce the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to a number less than the number of the shares
then outstanding plus the number of shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding rights, options, or warrants or upon conversion
of outstanding securities issued by the Company. The
holders of the Series A Preferred Stock do not have any preferential dividend rights
and shall be entitled to receive dividends, if any, only if, when, and
as declared by the Board of Directors in its sole and absolute discretion. The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock
have no voting rights. At any time on or after November 1, 2023, each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible, at the
option of the holder thereof . Notwithstanding the foregoing, the holders
of Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to convert their shares of Series A Preferred Stock prior to November 1, 2023 if
any of the following events occur: (i) a Change of Control (as defined in the Certificate of Designation) or (ii)
any other event as determined and agreed to by the Company and by the
holders holding a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock. Each share of the Series A Preferred
Stock is convertible into one hundred shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share.
In exchange for
the Cancellation Shares the Company issued 3,000,000 shares (the “Preferred Shares”) of its newly designated Series
A Preferred Stock to KH. The exchange of the Cancellation Shares and the issuance of the Preferred Shares was intended to comply
with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1 933, as amended (the “Act”), in that the issuance was exempt
from the registration requirements of the Act because the exchange of the Cancellation Shares for the Preferred Shares was an
exchange between the Company, as issuer, with an existing stockholder, and no commission or other remuneration was paid or given
directly for the exchange.
As of the date of this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q, the Company has 277,282,630 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and 3,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred
Stock issued and outstanding.
Description
of Business
The Company
is focused on growing and incubating innovative and profitable products into mature, dominant brands. In March 2020, the
Company commenced business operations as a result of becoming the exclusive distributor of certain electronic nicotine
delivery systems and related components (the “Products”) manufactured by Bidi Vapor, LLC (“Bidi”), a
Florida limited liability company, and a related party company that is also owned by Nirajkumar Patel, the Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the Company.
On
March 9, 2020, the Company entered into an exclusive distribution agreement (the “Distribution Agreement”) with Bidi,
a related party company, which Distribution Agreement was amended and restated on May 21, 2020 (the “A&R Distribution
Agreement”). Pursuant to the A&R Distribution Agreement, Bidi granted the
Company an exclusive worldwide right to distribute the Products for sale and resale to both retail level customers and non-retail
level customers. Currently, the Products consist primarily of the “Bidi Stick.”
7
In connection
with the A&R Distribution Agreement, the Company entered into non-exclusive sub-distribution agreements, which were subsequently
amended and restated by the parties in order to clarify certain provisions (all such agreements, as amended and restated, are
collectively referred to as the “A&R Sub-Distribution Agreements”), whereby the Company appointed the counterparties
as non-exclusive sub-distributors. Pursuant to the A&R Sub-Distribution Agreements, the sub-distributors agreed to purchase
for resale the Products in such quantities as they should need to properly service non-retail customers within the continental
United States (the “Territory”).
On March 31, 2020, the Company entered into
a service agreement (the “Service Agreement”) with QuikfillRx LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“QuikfillRx”),
whereby QuikfillRx has agreed to provide the Company with certain services and support relating to sales management, website development
and design, graphics, content, public communication, social media, management and analytics, and market and other research (collectively,
the “Services”). The Services will be provided by QuikfillRx as requested from time to time by the Company.
On June 2, 2020, the Company entered into the
First Amendment to the Service Agreement (the “First Amendment” and, collectively with the Service Agreement, the “Amended
Service Agreement”) with QuikfillRx.
Pursuant to the terms of the First Amendment,
the parties modified the amount of General Compensation (as defined below) to be paid to QuikfillRx. “General Compensation”
consists of the following: (i) for the Services provided in March 2020, the Company paid QuikfillRx an amount equal to $86,000;
(ii) for the Services provided in April 2020, the Company paid QuikfillRx an amount equal to $100,000; (iii) each calendar month
commencing May 2020 through October 2020, the Company will pay QuikfillRx an amount equal to $125,000 per month for the Services
to be performed during such calendar month; (iv) if the parties agree to extend the term of the Amended Service Agreement beyond
the original expiration date of October 31, 2020, then for the period between November 1, 2020 and October 31, 2021, the Company
will pay QuikfillRx $125,000 per month for the Services to be performed during such calendar month; and (iv) if the parties agree
to extend the term of the Amended Service Agreement beyond October 31, 2021, then for the period between November 1, 2021 and October
31, 2022, the Company will pay QuikfillRx $150,000 per month for the Services to be performed during such calendar month.
COVID-19
In
January 2020, the World Health Organization (the “WHO”) announced a global health emergency because of COVID-19, which
originated in Wuhan, China and the risks to the international community as the virus spread globally beyond its point of origin.
In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic based on the rapid increase in global exposure.
As
of the date of issuance of these unaudited financial statements, our operations have not been significantly impacted. No impairments
were recorded as of July 31, 2020 and no triggering events or changes in circumstances had occurred. However, the full impact
of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve subsequent to the three and nine months ended July 31, 2020 and as of the date these
unaudited financial statements are issued. As such, the full magnitude of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the resulting impact, if
any, on our financial condition, liquidity, and future results of operations is uncertain. Management is actively monitoring the
global situation on our financial condition, liquidity, operations, suppliers, industry, and customers. Reduced demand for products
or impaired ability to meet customer demand (including as a result of disruptions at our suppliers) could have a material adverse
effect on our business operations and financial performance. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic and the global
responses to curb its spread, we are not presently able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our results of operations,
financial condition, or liquidity for the remainder of fiscal year 2020 and beyond. As of the date of this filing, our recently
commenced business operations have not been impacted.
Note 2 –
Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes
thereto for the year ended October 31, 2019, as reported in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the
SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair
presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim period presented have been reflected herein.
The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
year. Notes to the financial statements, which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited
financial statements for the year ended October 31, 2019, as reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on
January 27, 2020, have been omitted.

Significant
Accounting Policies
Accounts Receivable and Allowance
for Doubtful Accounts
Receivables
are stated at cost, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based
on management’s assessment of the collectability of accounts receivables. A considerable amount of judgment is required
in assessing the amount of the allowance and the Company considers the historical level of credit losses and collection history
and applies percentages to aged receivable categories. The Company makes judgments about the creditworthiness of debtors based
on ongoing credit evaluations, and monitors current economic trends that might impact the level of credit losses in the future.
If the financial condition of the debtors were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make payments, a larger allowance
may be required. As of July 31, 2020, the Company did not have any allowance for doubtful accounts based on management’s
assessment.
Inventories
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost includes all costs of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing
the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course
of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. As of July 31, 2020, the
inventories only consisted of finished goods.
Reclassifications
Reclassifications have been made to conform with current period presentation.
Revenue Recognition
The Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from
Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), in the second quarter of fiscal year 2020, as this was the first quarter that the
Company generated revenues. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue when a customer obtains control of promised goods,
in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for the goods. To determine
revenue recognition for arrangements within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify
the contracts with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price;
(4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as the
entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that
the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods it transfers to the customer. The
Company excludes from the transaction price sales taxes, excise taxes and value added taxes imported at the time of the sales.
These taxes are not billed to customers by the Company. We use the term net revenues to refer to our operating revenues from
the sale of our products, including shipping and handling charges billed to customers, net of sales and promotion incentives,
and excise taxes.
Products
Revenue
The Company generates products revenue from the sale of the Products (as defined above) to retail and non-retail customers.
The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time based on management’s evaluation of when performance obligations under
the terms of a contract with the customer are satisfied and control of the Products has been transferred to the customer.
In most situations, transfer of control is considered complete when the products have been shipped to the customer. The Company’s
sales arrangements for retail sales usually require full prepayment before delivery of the Products. The advance payment is
not considered a significant financing component because the period between when the Company transfers a promised good to
a customer and when the customer pays for that good is short. The Company offers credit sales arrangements to non-retail (or
wholesale) customers and monitors the collectability of each credit sale periodically. There have not been significant credits
or returns and as such no reserve for sales returns and allowances has been deemed necessary.
Income
Tax
Income taxes
are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus
deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the recorded book basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities for
financial and income tax reporting. Deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those
differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred taxes
are also recognized for operating losses that are available to offset future taxable income and tax credits that are available
to offset future federal income taxes. The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained
on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial
condition, results of operations, or cash flow. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant
to ASC 740.

Recently
Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014,
the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued ASU 2014-09, “ Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC
606),” and issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance or implementation guidance between August 2015 and November
2017 within ASU 2015-04, ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10, ASU 2016-12, ASU 2016-20, ASU 2017-13, and ASU 2017-14 (collectively, including
ASU 2014-09, “ASC 606”). Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or
services and is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those
goods or services. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and
cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The Company adopted the standard from the second quarter of fiscal year 2020.
The adoption of ASC 606 did not have any impact on our previously reported consolidated financial statements in any prior period
nor did it result in a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings.
Note 3 –
Going Concern
The Company’s
financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern that
contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.
Prior to March
2020, the Company demonstrated adverse conditions that raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue
as a going concern. These adverse conditions were negative financial trends, specifically operating loss, working capital deficiency,
and other adverse key financial ratios. Also, the Company had not established any source of revenue to cover its operating
costs. The Company’s management funded operating expenses with related party contributions to capital.
However,
on March 9, 2020, the Company commenced business operations upon entering into the A&R Distribution Agreement with Bidi, a
related party company, whereby Bidi granted the Company an exclusive worldwide right to distribute the Products for sale and resale
to both retail level customers and non-retail level customers.
In April,
in connection with the A&R Distribution Agreement, the Company entered into the A&R Sub-Distribution Agreements with
certain third-party counterparties, whereby the Company appointed such counterparties as non-exclusive sub-distributors.
Pursuant to the A&R Sub-Distribution Agreements, the sub-distributors agreed to purchase for resale the Products in such
quantities as they should need to properly service non-retail customers within the Territory.
With these agreements in effect, the Company has established sources of revenue to cover its operating costs and achieved
net income of $3,721,069 during the nine months ended July 31, 2020. As of July 31, 2020, the Company has a positive working
capital of $4,023,496.
Management plans
to continue similar operations with increased marketing, which the Company believes will result in increased revenue and net income.
However, there is no assurance that management’s plan will be successful due to the current economic climate in the United
States and globally. At the time of filing this Quarterly Report, the previously reported going concern has been alleviated based
on the reasons above, and management does not have substantial doubt of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets,
or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event that the Company cannot continue as
a going concern.

In addition, pursuant to the Amended Service Agreement, the Company will pay QuikfilRx an amount equal to 0.9% of the Applicable

Note 8 – Income Tax
The Company
is subject to federal income taxes and state income tax in the United States. Significant judgment is required in determining the
provision for income taxes and income tax assets and liabilities, including evaluating uncertainties in the application of
accounting principles and complex tax laws.
The Tax Cuts
and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) was enacted on December 22, 2017, and reduced the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from
35% to 21%, eliminated corporate Alternative Minimum Tax, modified rules for expensing capital investment, and limited the deduction
of interest expense for certain companies. The Company fulfilled and shipped all of the Products from Florida and, thus, it is
subject to the state corporate income tax of Florida with a tax rate of 4.458%.
During
the nine months ended July 31, 2020, the Company generated taxable income of $4,991,910 and, thus, accrued $1,048,301 of federal

Item
2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is designed to provide a reader of the financial statements
with a narrative report on our financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity. This discussion and analysis should
be read in conjunction with the unaudited Financial Statements and notes thereto for the three and nine months ended July 31,
2020 included under Item 1 – Financial Statements in this Quarterly Report and our audited Financial Statements and notes
thereto for the year ended October 31, 2019 contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following discussion contains forward-looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements of our plans, objectives, expectations, and intentions. Our
actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Please also see the cautionary
language at the beginning of this Quarterly Report regarding forward-looking statements.
The
discussions of our results as presented in this Quarterly Report include use of the non-GAAP term “gross profit. Gross profit
is determined by deducting the cost of goods sold from operating revenue. Cost of goods sold includes direct and indirect labor,
materials, services, fixed costs, and variable overhead. Gross profit should not be considered an alternative to operating income
or net income, which are determined in accordance with GAAP. We believe that gross profit, although a non-GAAP financial measure,
is useful and meaningful to investors as a basis for making investment decisions. It provides investors with information that
demonstrates our cost structure and provides funds for our total costs and expenses. We use gross profit in measuring the performance
of our business. Other companies may calculate gross profit in a different manner.
Potential
Impact of COVID-19
In
March 2020, the WHO declared the outbreak of COVID-19 as a pandemic based on the rapid increase in global exposure. COVID-19 continues
to spread throughout the world, including the United States. Our business operations, which commenced during this pandemic, continue
to be operational and, to date, we have not seen any significant direct negative impact of COVID-19 to our newly commenced business.
However, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact economic conditions, which could impact the short-term and long-term demand
from our customers and, therefore, has the potential to negatively impact our results of operations, cash flows, and financial
position in the future. Management is actively monitoring this situation and any impact on our financial condition, liquidity,
and results of operations. However, given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic and the global responses to curb its spread,
we are not presently able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our future results of operations, financial condition,
or liquidity for the remainder of fiscal year 2020 and, possibly, beyond.
Corporate
History
We
were incorporated on September 4, 2018 in the State of Delaware. We are focused on growing and incubating innovative and profitable
products into mature, dominant brands.
USSE
Corp. and USSE Delaware Merger
USSE
Nevada was incorporated with the Nevada Secretary of State on July 8, 1998 under the original name C&A Restaurants. On June
15, 2009, C&A Restaurants changed its name to USSE Corp.
Effective
September 19, 2018, USSE Nevada re-domiciled from Nevada to Delaware pursuant to a merger of USSE Nevada with and into USSE Delaware,
with USSE Delaware as the surviving entity.
Holding
Company Reorganization
On September 4, 2018, USSE Delaware acquired
1,000 shares of our common stock, which represented 100% of our then-outstanding shares of common stock, for no consideration,
resulting in us becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of USSE Delaware. Also, immediately prior to the Holding Company Reorganization,
USSE Merger Sub was our wholly-owned subsidiary.
12
At the Effective Time, and in accordance with
the provisions set forth in Section 251(g) of the DGCL, USSE Merger Sub, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of USSE Delaware and
our direct wholly-owned subsidiary, merged with and into USSE Delaware, our then parent. USSE Delaware was the surviving corporation
and our wholly-owned subsidiary. USSE Delaware also changed its name to USSE Corp. following the Holding Company Reorganization.
Upon completion of the Holding Company Reorganization,
by virtue of the merger, and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, each share of USSE Delaware’s common stock
issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Holding Company Reorganization was automatically converted
into one validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable share of our common stock. Additionally, each share of USSE Delaware’s
preferred stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into one validly issued, fully paid,
and non-assessable share of our preferred stock, having the same designations, rights, powers, and preferences, and the qualifications,
limitations, and restrictions thereof, as the corresponding share of USSE Delaware’s preferred stock. Each share of our common
stock issued and outstanding and held by USSE Delaware immediately prior to the Effective Time was cancelled.
This resulted in us being authorized to issue
up to 1,005,000,000 shares, which consisted of: (i) 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share of which
66,397,574 shares were then issued and outstanding; (ii) 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, of which
(a) 1,000,000 shares were designated as Convertible Series A, all of which were then issued and outstanding; and (b) 500,000 shares
were designated as Convertible Series B, of which 71,700 shares of Convertible Series B preferred stock were then issued and outstanding.
Post-Holding
Company Reorganization
On October 19, 2018, we issued 500,000,000
shares of restricted common stock and 400,000 shares of Convertible Series B Preferred Stock to GMRZ for services rendered to us.
Commensurate with the filing of our Amended
and Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State on October 22, 2018, every issued and outstanding
share of Convertible Series A preferred stock was converted into 1.25 shares of common stock with stockholders’ economic
rights preserved. Additionally, at the same time, every share of Convertible Series B preferred stock, issued and outstanding was
converted into ten shares of common stock with stockholders’ economic rights adversely affected in the conversion. Immediately
following the conversion of the aforementioned shares, and upon filing of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation,
the authorized and unissued shares of Convertible Series A and Convertible Series B preferred stock were cancelled. As of October
22, 2018, Convertible Series A and Series B preferred stock were removed from the status of authorized but unissued preferred stock.
On February 6, 2019, we entered into the Agreement,
by and among us, GMRZ, and KH, pursuant to which, on February 20, 2019, GMRZ sold 504,000,000 shares of our restricted common stock,
representing approximately 88.06 percent of our then issued and outstanding shares of common stock, to KH, and KH paid GMRZ the
Purchase Price. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement resulted in a change in control, with KH becoming
our largest controlling stockholder. Nirajkumar Patel and Eric Mosser are the sole voting members of KH. The Purchase Price was
paid with personal funds of the members of KH.
Effective July 12, 2019, we changed our corporate
name from Quick Start Holdings, Inc. to Kaival Brands Innovations Group, Inc. The name change was effected through a parent/subsidiary
short-form merger of Kaival Brands Innovations Group, Inc., the Company’s wholly-owned Delaware subsidiary formed solely
for the purpose of the name change, with and into us. We were the surviving entity.
On the effective date of the merger, our name
was changed to “Kaival Brands Innovations Group, Inc.” and the Charter, was further amended to reflect our new legal
name. There were no other changes to its Charter.
Share Cancellation and Exchange Agreement
On August 19, 2020, we entered into a Share
Cancellation and Exchange Agreement with our controlling stockholder, KH. Nirajkumar Patel and Eric Mosser, our current officers
and directors, are the only voting members of KH.
Pursuant to the Agreement, KH returned to us
the Cancellation Shares, consisting of 300,000,000 shares of our common stock, which Cancellation Shares have now been cancelled
and retired by us.
On August 19, 2020, we filed the Certificate
of Designation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, which authorizes a total of 3,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred
Stock.
In exchange for the Cancellation Shares, we
issued the Preferred Shares, consisting of 3,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to KH. The exchange of the Cancellation
Shares and the issuance of the Preferred Shares is intended to comply with Section 3(a)(9) of the Act, in that the issuance is
exempt from the registration requirements of the Act because the exchange of the Cancellation Shares for the Preferred Shares was
an exchange between us, as issuer, with an existing stockholder, and no commission or other remuneration was paid or given directly
for the exchange.
13
Our
Business
Currently,
we market and place the Products into national distribution channels through long-standing industry relationships in accordance
with the A&R Distribution Agreement entered into with Bidi, a related party, in March 2020 (and subsequently amended and restated
in May 2020. Pursuant to the A&R Distribution Agreement, we sell and resell the Products to both retail level customers and
non-retail level customers. Bidi’s primary product is the “Bidi Stick.” Bidi is considered a related party to
us because our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and director, Mr. Nirajkumar Patel, owns and controls Bidi. Mr.
Patel is also a beneficial owner of KH, the entity that is our largest controlling stockholder. Thus, Bidi and we are under common
control.
Pursuant
to the terms of the A&R Distribution Agreement, Bidi provides us with all branding, logos, and marketing materials to be
utilized by us in connection with our marketing and promotion of the Products. We engaged QuikfillRx in March 2020 and,
pursuant to the Amended Service Agreement, QuikfillRx agreed to provide us with the Services, as we may request from time to
time.
We
process all sales made to retail customers and non-retail customers, with all sales to retail customers to be made through the
website, www.bidivapor.com. We provide all customer service and support at our own expense. Bidi sets the minimum prices for all
sales made by us. With respect to sales to non-retail customers, we submit purchase orders to Bidi, Bidi delivers the Products
to us, and we ship the Products directly to these non-retail customers. In the case of retail customers, we maintain adequate
inventory levels of the Products in order to meet these customers’ demand, and deliver the Products sold to these retail
customers.
In
connection with the A&R Distribution Agreement, we entered into the A&R Sub-Distribution Agreements with certain counterparties,
pursuant to which we appointed such counterparties as non-exclusive sub-distributors of the Products to non-retail customers within
the Territory. Each of the A&R Sub-Distribution Agreements set forth certain minimum purchase obligations.
We
believe that over the course of the next twelve months, our business operations will generate the capital needed to achieve our
business objectives; however, because we recently commenced business operations, there can be no assurance that our business operations
will continue to generate the cash flows required for us to achieve our business objectives. If we require additional capital,
there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise any required capital or that capital will be available to us at acceptable
terms, or at all. We believe that our cash provided by operations will be sufficient for the next twelve months.
As a result of the commencement of business
operations, in March 2020, we began hiring employees and intend to hire additional independent contractors and/or employees in
the future. We cannot provide any assurance as to the timing of the hiring of any additional independent contractors or employees,
the number of independent contractors or employees that we may hire, and whether acceptable independent contractors or employees
will be available to us at that time.
Going
Concern
Prior to March 2020, we demonstrated adverse
conditions that raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. These adverse conditions were negative
financial trends, specifically operating loss, working capital deficiency, and other adverse key financial ratios. Also, we
had not established any source of revenue to cover its operating costs. Our management funded operating expenses with related party
contributions to capital.
However, on March 9, 2020, we commenced business
operations upon entering into the A&R Distribution Agreement with Bidi, a related party company, whereby Bidi granted us an
exclusive worldwide right to distribute the Products for sale and resale to both retail level customers and non-retail level customers.
In April, in connection with the A&R Distribution
Agreement, we entered into the A&R Sub-Distribution Agreements with certain third-party counterparties, whereby we appointed
such counterparties as non-exclusive sub-distributors. Pursuant to the A&R Sub-Distribution Agreements, the sub-distributors
agreed to purchase for resale the Products in such quantities as they should need to properly service non-retail customers within
the Territory.
With
these agreements in effect, we have established sources of revenue to cover our operating costs and achieved net income of
$3,721,069 during the nine months ended July 31, 2020. As of July 31, 2020, we had a positive working capital of
$4,023,496.
Management plans
to continue similar operations with increased marketing, which we believe will result in increased revenue and net income. However,
there is no assurance that management’s plan will be successful due to the current economic climate in the United States
and globally. At the time of filing this Quarterly Report, the previously reported going concern has been alleviated based on the
reasons above, and management does not have substantial doubt our ability to continue as a going concern.
These financial statements do not include
any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities
that might be necessary in the event that we cannot continue as a going concern.
The unaudited
financial statements filed as part of this Quarterly Report do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and
classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event that
we cannot continue as a going concern.

Liquidity
and Capital Resources
We
have no known demands or commitments and are not aware of any events or uncertainties as of July 31, 2020 that will result in
or that are reasonably likely to materially increase or decrease our current liquidity.
At
July 31, 2020, we had working capital of approximately $4.0 million and total cash of approximately $2.7 million.
Now
that we have commenced business operations, we intend to generally rely on cash from operations and equity and debt offerings,
to the extent necessary and available, to satisfy our liquidity needs. There are a number of factors that could result in the
need to raise additional funds, including a decline in revenue or a lack of anticipated sales growth and increased costs. Our
efforts are directed toward generating positive cash flow and profitability. If these efforts are not successful, we may need
to raise additional capital. Should capital not be available to us at reasonable terms, other actions may become necessary in
addition to cost control measures and continued efforts to increase sales. These actions may include exploring strategic options
for the sale of the Company, the creation of joint ventures or strategic alliances under which we will pursue business opportunities,
or other alternatives. We believe we have the financial resources to weather any short-term impacts of COVID-19; however, we are
unable to presently estimate any potential future impacts from COVID-19 and an extended impact could have a material and adverse
effect on our sales, earnings, and liquidity.
Cash
Flows:
Cash
flow provided by operations was approximately $2.7 million for the first nine months of fiscal year 2020, compared to $0 for the
first nine months of fiscal year 2019. The increase in cash flow from operations for the first nine months of fiscal year 2020
was mainly due to the increase in net income. We anticipate continued improvement in our cash flows provided by operations in
future years based on the minimum purchase obligations set forth in the A&R Sub-Distribution Agreements, partially offset
by increases in costs as we ramp up our sales and marketing efforts.
Results
of Operations
Three
months ended July 31, 2020, compared to three months ended July 31, 2019
Revenues:

Emerging
Growth Company
We
are an “emerging growth company,” that is exempt from certain financial disclosure and governance requirements for
up to five years as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). The JOBS Act eases
restrictions on the sale of securities and increases the number of stockholders a company must have before becoming subject to
the SEC’s reporting and disclosure rules. We have elected to use the extended transition
period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(2) of the JOBS Act, that allows us to delay
the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until
those standards apply to private companies. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies
that comply with public company effective dates.
