NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

MariMed Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, develops and manages state-of-the-art, regulatory-compliant facilities for the cultivation, production, and dispensing of legal cannabis and cannabis-infused products. Such facilities, located in multiple states, are leased to the Company’s clients in the emerging cannabis industry. Along with operational oversight, the Company provides its clients with legal, accounting, human resources, business development, and other corporate and administrative services.

The Company also provides professional consultative services in all aspects of cannabis licensing procurement. To date, the Company has secured, on behalf of its clients, 11 cannabis licenses across five states—two in Delaware, two in Illinois, one in Nevada, three in Maryland and three in Massachusetts. Accordingly, the Company has developed seed-to-sale cannabis facilities across of these five states in excess of 300,000 square feet.

In addition, the Company licenses precision-dosed, cannabis-infused products to treat specific medical conditions or to achieve a certain result. These products are licensed under the brand names Kalm Fusion™ and Nature’s Heritage™, both of which were developed by the Company, and Betty’s Eddies™, acquired in October 2017. The Company also has exclusive sublicensing rights in certain states to distribute vaporizer pens developed by Lucid Mood™, as well as the clinically-tested medicinal cannabis strains developed in Israel by Tikun Olam™.

The Company’s stock is quoted on the OTCQB market under the ticker symbol MRMD.

The Company was originally incorporated in January 2011 under the name Worlds Online Inc., using the ticker symbol WORX. In early 2017, the Company name and ticker were changed to its current name and ticker. Since inception, the Company had operated an online portal that offers multi-user virtual environments to users. This segment of the business has had insignificant operations since early 2014.

In May 2014, the Company, through its subsidiary MariMed Advisors Inc., acquired Sigal Consulting LLC, a company operating in the cannabis industry. The purchase price consisted of Company common stock, options to purchase additional Company common stock, and a minority interest in MariMed Advisors Inc. This transaction, further disclosed in Note 3, was accounted for as a purchase acquisition where the Company was both the legal and accounting acquirer. In June 2017, the minority interest in MariMed Advisors Inc. was merged into the Company.

In May 2018, the Company acquired iRollie LLC, a manufacturer of branded cannabis products and accessories for consumers, and custom product and packaging for companies in the cannabis industry. This acquisition is further disclosed in Note 3.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

In accordance with GAAP, these interim statements do not contain all of the disclosures normally required in annual statements. In addition, the results of operations of interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year. Accordingly, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited annual financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior periods’ data to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported income (losses) or cash flows.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of MariMed Inc. and its subsidiaries, all of which are majority-owned. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts within the financial statements and disclosures thereof. Actual results could differ from these estimates or assumptions.

Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The fair values of these investments approximate their carrying values.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s main sources of revenue are comprised of: leasing of its developed cannabis cultivation, production, and dispensary facilities to its cannabis-licensed clients; agreements to provide comprehensive oversight and corporate support to its clients’ operations; consulting services to companies operating in the medical and legal recreational cannabis industries; arrangements for the procurement of cannabis materials and resources; and licensing of branded cannabis products.

The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following criteria are met: evidence of an arrangement exists such as a signed contract, delivery has occurred/services have been performed, the price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, with depreciation recognized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term, if applicable. When assets are retired or disposed, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense in the period incurred.

The estimated useful lives of property and equipment are generally as follows: buildings and building improvements, seven to thirty-nine years; tenant improvements, the remaining duration of the related lease; furniture and fixtures, seven years; machinery and equipment, five to ten years. Land is not depreciated.

The Company’s property and equipment are individually reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the aggregate projected future cash flows over the anticipated holding period on an undiscounted basis. An impairment loss is measured based on the excess of the asset’s carrying amount over its estimated fair value.

Impairment analyses are based on management’s current plans, intended holding periods and available market information at the time the analyses are prepared. If these criteria change, the Company’s evaluation of impairment losses may be different and could have a material impact to the consolidated financial statements.

For the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, based on its impairment analyses, the Company did not have any impairment losses.

Impairment of Long Lived Assets

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its fixed assets and other assets in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360-10-15, Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Impairment of long-lived assets is recognized when the net book value of such assets exceeds their expected cash flows, in which case the assets are written down to fair value, which is determined based on discounted future cash flows or appraised values.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, to measure the fair value of its financial instruments, and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, for disclosures on the fair value of its financial instruments. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three levels of fair value hierarchy defined by ASC 820 are:

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and accounts payable approximate their fair values due to the short maturity of these instruments. The fair value of option and warrant issuances are determined utilizing the binomial options pricing model and employing the following inputs: life of instrument, exercise price, value of the underlying security on issuance date, and 2-year volatility of underlying security.

Extinguishment of Liabilities

The Company accounts for extinguishment of liabilities in accordance with ASC 405-20, Extinguishments of Liabilities. When the conditions for extinguishment are met, the liabilities are written down to zero and a gain or loss is recognized.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation using the fair value method as set forth in ASC 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, which requires a public entity to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an equity award based on the fair value of the award on the grant date, with limited exceptions. Such value will be incurred as compensation expense over the period an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. No compensation cost is recognized for equity awards for which employees do not render the requisite service.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in the period that includes the enactment date.

ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. The Company did not take any uncertain tax positions and had no adjustments to unrecognized income tax liabilities or benefits for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017.

Related Party Transactions

The Company follows ASC 850, Related Party Disclosures, for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.

In accordance with ASC 850, the Company’s financial statements include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business, as well as transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of financial statements.

Comprehensive Income

The Company reports comprehensive income and its components following guidance set forth by ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, which establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the consolidated financial statements. There were no items of comprehensive income applicable to the Company during the period covered in the financial statements.

Earnings Per Share

Earnings per common share is computed pursuant to ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the sum of the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the weighted average number of potentially dilutive securities during the period.

As of June 30, 2018 and 2017, there were 12,508,932 and 10,475,000, respectively, of potentially dilutive securities in the form of options and warrants. Also as of June 30, 2018 and 2017, there were zero and 500,000 shares, respectively, of subscriptions on convertible preferred stock, and $250,000 and $3,125,000, respectively, of convertible promissory notes, that were potentially dilutive, whose conversion into common stock is based on a discount to the market value of common stock on or about the future conversion date. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, all potentially dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect on earnings per share, and in accordance with ASC 260, were excluded from the diluted net income per share calculation, resulting in calculations of basic and fully diluted net income per share that were identical for this period. These securities may dilute earnings per share in the future.

Commitments and Contingencies

The Company follows ASC 450, Contingencies, which requires the Company to assess the likelihood that a loss will be incurred from the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more future events. Such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing possible loss contingencies from legal proceedings or unasserted claims, the Company would evaluate the perceived merits of the proceedings or claims, and the perceived merits of the relief sought or expected to be sought.

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss will be incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then such estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, and an estimate of the range of possible losses, if determinable and material, would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.

While not assured, management does not believe, based upon information available at this time, that a loss contingency will have material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Risk and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to risks common to companies operating within the legal and medical marijuana industries, including, but not limited to, federal laws, government regulations and jurisdictional laws.

Noncontrolling Interests

Noncontrolling interests represent third-party minority ownership of the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests is shown in the consolidated statements of operations; and the value of net assets owned by noncontrolling interests are presented as a component of equity within the balance sheets.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which enhances and clarifies the guidance on the classification and presentation of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows. This ASU will be effective in 2019 and its impact is dependent upon the level of restricted cash of the Company, which at this time is insignificant.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which modifies accounting for lessees by requiring the recording of lease assets and liabilities for operating leases and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. This ASU will be effective in 2020 and the Company is currently evaluating the impact of adoption, which will be determined by the Company’s lease portfolio at the time of implementation.

In 2014 and subsequently in 2016, the FASB issued new standards on the recognition of revenue. While the new standards amend the current standards, they are not expected to have a material impact on the amount and timing of revenue recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements when the new standards are adopted in 2019.

In addition to the above, the Company has reviewed all other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, and does not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements will have a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.

NOTE 3 – ACQUISITIONS

In May 2014, the Company, through its subsidiary MariMed Advisors Inc., acquired Sigal Consulting LLC from its ownership group which included the current CEO and CFO of the Company (the “Sigal Ownership Group”). The purchase price received by the Sigal Ownership Group was comprised of (i) 31,954,236 shares of common stock valued at approximately $5,913.000, representing 50% of the Company’s outstanding shares on the closing date, (ii) options to purchase three million shares of the Company’s common stock, exercisable over five years with exercise prices ranging from $0.15 to $0.35, and valued at approximately $570,000, and (iii) a 49% ownership interest in MariMed Advisors Inc. The excess of purchase price over the book value of the acquired entity was recorded as goodwill, which was subsequently impaired in full and written down to zero.

In June 2017, the remaining 49% interest of MariMed Advisors Inc. was merged into the Company in exchange for an aggregate 75 million shares of common stock to the Sigal Ownership Group.

In October 2017, the Company acquired the intellectual property, formulations, recipes, proprietary equipment, know-how, and other certain assets of the Betty’s Eddies™ brand of cannabis-infused fruit chews. The purchase price was $140,000 plus subscriptions on 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. In addition, the selling company shall receive royalties based on a percentage of the Company’s sales of the Betty’s Eddies™ product line, commencing at 25% and decreasing to 2.5% as certain sales thresholds are met. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, such royalties approximated $14,000, of which $5,000 were paid and $9,000 accrued at June 30, 2018.

After applying the total purchase price, which consisted of the cash paid plus the fair value of the subscribed common stock on the date of the transaction, to the assessed fair values of the assets purchased, the transaction gave rise to goodwill of approximately $333,000. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company reviewed the goodwill for impairment and determined that, based on the present value of future cash flows of the acquired assets, there was no impairment. The goodwill is included in Other Assets in the Company’s financial statements.

In May 2018, the Company issued $600,000 of subscriptions on common stock in exchange for 100% of the ownership interests of iRollie LLC. The Company acquired, among other assets and liabilities, iRollie’s entire product line, service offerings, clients, and intellectual property, and hired its two co-founders. After applying the purchase price to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, the Company recorded goodwill of approximately $119,000. At June 30, 2018, the Company determined that the goodwill had not been impaired, which is included in Other Assets in the Company’s financial statements.

Overview

General

We are industry experts in the development, operation, management and optimization of cannabis cultivation, production, and dispensing facilities. Such facilities, located in multiple states, are leased to the Company’s clients in the emerging cannabis industry. Our team acquires land and/or real estate for the purpose of developing state-of-the-art, regulatory-compliant legal cannabis facilities. These facilities are models of excellence in horticultural principals, cannabis production, product development, and dispensary operations. These facilities are leased to the Company’s clients who are entities that have been awarded legal and medical marijuana licenses from multiple states. Along with this operational oversight, the Company provides its clients with legal, accounting, human resources, and other corporate and administrative services.

The Company also provides industry leading expertise and consultative services in all aspects of cannabis licensing procurement. To date, the Company has secured, on behalf of its clients, 11 cannabis licenses across five states—two in Delaware, two in Illinois, one in Nevada, three in Maryland and three in Massachusetts. Accordingly, we have operating facilities located in the cities of Wilmington and Lewes in Delaware; the cities of Anna and Harrisburg in Illinois; Clark county in Nevada; Arundel county and the city of Hagerstown in Maryland; and the cities of New Bedford, Norwood and Middleborough in Massachusetts. In total, we have developed in excess of 300,000 square feet of seed-to-sale cannabis facilities.

In addition to our cannabis facilities, we are on the forefront of the development of precision-dosed, cannabis-infused products. Our proprietary branded products are comprised of Kalm Fusion™, designed for the treatment of specific medical conditions and related symptoms, Betty’s Eddies™, the recently acquired recreational-leaning brand of fruit chews, and Nature’s Heritage™, the newest member of the MariMed family of brands, consisting of organic products created from the finest seed lineages which we believe are “The best cannabis Mother Earth has to offer®”.

The Company also has exclusive sublicensing rights in certain states to distribute vaporizer pens developed by Lucid Mood™, as well as the clinically-tested medicinal cannabis strains developed in Israel by world-renowned Tikun Olam™. The Company continues to be committed to the licensing and distribution of branded cannabis products in states across the country and beyond.

As of this filing, we are contemplating a strategy to evolve the Company into a direct cultivator, producer, and dispenser of cannabis and cannabis-related products. Such a strategy would be executed via the securing of cannabis licenses for the benefit of the Company, acquiring or partnering with mature companies in the cannabis industry, and/or organic growth. While it is not certain at this time whether we will pursue such strategy, if implemented, we anticipate that it would occur by the end of fiscal 2019, and that the Company’s revenues and operations would increase significantly.

In May 2014, the Company, through its subsidiary MariMed Advisors Inc. (“MMA”), acquired Sigal Consulting LLC from its members, two of whom are now the CEO and CFO of the Company, in exchange for (i) an aggregate amount of the Company’s common stock equal to 50% of the Company’s outstanding shares on the closing date; (ii) options to purchase three million shares of the Company’s common stock, exercisable over five years with exercise prices ranging from $0.15 to $0.35, and (iii) a 49% ownership interest of MMA. In June 2017, the minority interest in MariMed Advisors Inc. was merged into the Company in exchange for 75 million shares of restricted common stock.

In May 2018, the Company acquired iRollie LLC, a manufacturer of branded cannabis products and accessories for consumers, and custom product and packaging for companies in the cannabis industry.

In August 2018, the Company entered into an exclusive global licensing agreement for the production and distribution rights in all existing and future legal cannabis markets of a proprietary technology that prints precision-dosed dissolvable cannabis products. This technology facilitates the production of multiple combinations of cannabinoids, terpenes, and nutrients , while avoiding fillers commonly found in cannabis and nutraceutical products, into a paper-thin, low-calorie, fast-absorbing product that is delivered sublingually, transdermally, or by drinking when dissolved in liquid. The process also allows for the printing of any graphic, such as a bar code or website address, on each product. These products transport easily and discreetly in purses, pockets, and wallets, and are produced at higher levels of efficiency than the current methods within the cannabis industry.

Revenues

Our revenues are comprised of the following primary categories:

Management – We receive fees for providing comprehensive oversight of our clients’ entire cannabis cultivation, production, and dispensary operations. Along with this oversight, we provide human resources, legal, accounting, sales, marketing, and reporting services.

Real Estate – Our state-of-the-art, regulatory-compliant legal cannabis facilities are leased to our cannabis-licensed clients over 20-year lease terms. We generate rental income from occupancy, tenant improvements, equipment rentals, and additional rental income based on the success of the cannabis licensees.

Licensing – We derive licensing revenue from the sale by the licensees of our branded precision-dosed cannabis-infused products, such as Kalm Fusion™ and Betty’s Eddies™, to legal dispensaries throughout the country.

Consulting – We assist third-parties in securing cannabis licenses, and provide advisory services in the areas of facility design and development, and cultivation and dispensing best practices

Supply Procurement – We have established large volume discounts with top national vendors of cultivation and production supplies and equipment, which we acquire and resell at competitive prices to our cannabis-licensed clients with a reasonable markup.

Expenses

We classify our expenses into three broad categories:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we raised approximately $8.5 million from the issuance of common stock. In addition, capital of approximately $2.0 million was extended to us for building improvements on our New Bedford, MA property by the terms of the secured lender.

These funds will be used to fund Company operations, continue the development of our facilities, and expand our branded licensing business. We continue to pursue additional sources of capital in 2018, although there can be no assurance that any such capital will become available.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to three months ended June 30, 2017

Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2017 increased 81.2% to approximately $2.9 million, compared with $1.6 million from the same period a year ago. This significant increase was primarily due to the growth of (i) rental income from our facilities in Maryland and Massachusetts which were fully developed and leased to tenants in late calendar 2017, (ii) supply procurement services provide to additional cannabis licensees in 2018, and (iii) management fees and additional rental revenue which we earn based on a percentage of revenue generated by our cannabis-licensed clients. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the revenue generated by these clients increased 67.6% to approximately $4.6 million from approximately $2.7 million for the same period in 2017.

Cost of revenues increased from approximately $469,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017 to approximately $913,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018, and as a percentage of revenue, cost of revenues were 28.9% and 31.1%, respectively. The increase in this percentage is due to a higher level of cost associated with supply procurement and licensed products from year to year. Accordingly, gross profit as a percentage of revenue decreased from 71.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2017 to 68.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

Personnel expense increased to approximately $285,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018, which represented 9.7% of revenues, from approximately $137,000 for the same period a year ago, which represented and 8.4% of revenues. This increase was the result of increased staffing costs to support the higher level of revenues.

Marketing and promotion costs increased to approximately $77,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from approximately $45,000 for the same period a year ago. This increase is due to our additional efforts to promote our services within the cannabis industry.

General and administrative costs increased to approximately to $815,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 from approximately $369,000 for the same period a year ago. This increase is primarily due to the operating costs and professional fees associated with our new active facilities in 2018.

Non-operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2018 primarily comprised of (i) interest expense on our mortgages and notes payable of approximately $286,000, offset by interest income on our note receivable of approximately $19,000, (ii) non-cash equity compensation of approximately $6.3 million arising from the issuance of stock options and warrants, and (iii) non-cash losses on the settlement of debt via the issuance of common stock and subscriptions on common stock of approximately $563,000. The two non-cash items, required by generally accepted accounting principles, had no effect on the operating earnings or liquidity of the Company. These non-cash items gave rise to the large year-over-year increase in non-operating costs. For the same period in 2017, net interest expense was approximately $96,000, and no options or warrants were issued.

As a result of the foregoing, we realized net income of approximately $505,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2017, compared with a net loss of approximately $6.3 million in 2018. The loss in the current period was due to the previously explained non-cash expenses which had no impact on the Company’s operating income or cash flow. Excluding these non-cash items, net income for the three months ended June 30, 2018 was approximately $575,000.

Six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to six months ended June 30, 2017

Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased 81.1% to approximately $5.0 million, compared with $2.8 million from the same period a year ago. This significant increase was primarily due to the growth of (i) rental income from our facilities in Maryland and Massachusetts which were fully developed and leased to tenants in late calendar 2017, (ii) supply procurement services provide to additional cannabis licensees in 2018, and (iii) management fees and additional rental revenue which we earn based on a percentage of revenue generated by our cannabis-licensed clients. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the revenue generated by these clients increased 62.6% to approximately $8.2 million from approximately $5.0 million for the same period in 2017.

Cost of revenues increased to approximately $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from approximately $940,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. As a percentage of revenue, cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased to 35.9% from 33.9% for the same period in 2017. This increase was attributable to a higher level of cost associated with supply procurement and licensed products from year to year. Accordingly, gross profit as a percentage of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2018 decreased to 64.13% from 66.1% for the same period in 2017.

Personnel expense increased to approximately $470,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from $305,000 for the same period a year ago. Despite the increase in amount, which was the result of hiring additional staff to support the higher level of revenues, this expense decreased as a percentage of revenues to 9.4% in 2018 from 11.0% in 2017.

Marketing and promotion costs increased slightly to approximately $130,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from approximately $115,000 for the same period a year ago. These costs decreased relative to the growth in revenues from year to year, representing 2.6% and 4.1% of revenues in 2018 and 2017, respectively.

General and administrative costs increased to approximately $1,521,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from approximately $582,000 for the same period a year ago. This increase is predominantly due to the utilities, real estate taxes, security, and other cost associated with operating an increased number of active facilities, and is commensurate with the growth of revenues and the overall business.

Non-operating expenses comprised of (i) interest expense on our mortgages and notes payable of approximately $605,000, offset by interest income on our note receivable of approximately $39,000, (ii) non-cash equity compensation of approximately $6.9 million arising from the issuing of stock options and warrants, and (iii) non-cash losses on the settlement of debt via the issuance of common stock and subscriptions on common stock of approximately $1.8 million. The two non-cash items, required by generally accepted accounting principles, had no effect on the operating earnings or liquidity of the Company, and the cause for the large year-over-year variation in non-operating expenses. For the same period in 2017, net interest expense was approximately $178,000, and non-cash items approximated $38,000.

As a result of the foregoing, we incurred a net loss of approximately $8.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to net income of approximately $614,000 from the same period a year ago. The loss in the current period is due to the previously explained large non-cash expenses which had no impact on the Company’s operating income or cash flow. Excluding these non-cash items, net income for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was approximately $530,000.
