Artisan Consumer Group, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)
As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023
NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Artisan Consumer Goods, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on September 14, 2009, and its year-end is June 30. The Company’s principle executive office address is 999 N Northlake Way Ste 203, Seattle, Washington 98103-3442.
The Company had previously acquired mineral properties located in the Thunder Bay mining district, Province of Ontario, Canada but never determined whether these properties contain reserves that are economically recoverable. As of June 30, 2015, the Company ceased our exploration operations in the Thunder Bay mining district due to a lack of funds. As of September 30, 2018, the Company ceased pursuing all mining exploration.
The Company acquired the Within / Without Granola (“WWG”) brand on July 15, 2021 form Paleo Scavenger, LLC for $
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared on an accrual basis of accounting, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US GAAP) for interim financial information applicable for a going concern, which assumes that the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the ordinary course of the business, and in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Certain information and disclosures included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.
In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements contain all material adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company for the interim periods presented.
The results for the three months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full year. These unaudited financial statements and related footnotes should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 12, 2023.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company provides estimates for its common stock valuations and valuation allowances for deferred taxes.
Cash Flow Reporting
The Company follows ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows, for cash flows reporting, classifies cash receipts and payments according to whether they stem from operating, investing, or financing activities and provides definitions of each category, and uses the indirect or reconciliation method (“Indirect method”) as defined by ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows, to report net cash flow from operating activities by adjusting net income to reconcile it to net cash flow from operating activities by removing the effects of (a) all deferrals of past operating cash receipts and payments and all accruals of expected future operating cash receipts and payments and (b) all items that are included in net income that do not affect operating cash receipts and payments.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments and other short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of September 30, 2023.
The Company maintains its cash balance at one financial institution that is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (FIFO: first-in, first-out) or market. The cost of inventory includes the cost of raw materials and freight. During June 2022 the Company purchased its first inventory of the original and maple flavored products for $
Basic Earnings (loss) per Share
The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings (loss) per share for entities with publicly held common stock.
Basic net earnings (loss) per share amounts are computed by dividing the net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are the same as basic earnings (loss) per share due to the lack of dilutive items in the Company.

Share Based Compensation
The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with the fair value recognition provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 718 and No. 505. The Company issues restricted stock to employees and consultants for their services. Cost for these transactions are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments issued at the date of grant. These shares are considered fully vested, and the fair market value is recognized as an expense in the period granted. The Company recognized consulting expenses and a corresponding increase to additional paid-in-capital related to stock issued for services. For agreements requiring future services, the consulting expense is to be recognized ratably over the requisite service period. Stock based compensation amounted to $
Fair Value Measurements
In September 2006, the FASB issued ASC 820 which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of ASC 820 were effective January 1, 2008.
As defined in ASC 820, fair value is 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 (exit price). The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. The Company classifies fair value balances based on the observations of those inputs. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurement).
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy defined by ASC 820 are as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, marketable securities and listed equities.
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. Instruments in this category generally include non-exchange-traded derivatives such as commodity swaps, interest rate swaps, options and collars.
Level 3 – Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.
The Company did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be adjusted on the balance sheet to fair value in accordance with ASC 825-10 as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023.
Income Taxes
The Company’s policy is to provide for deferred income taxes based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) legislation reduces the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate from
The Company intends to file income tax returns in the U.S. federal tax jurisdiction and various state tax jurisdictions. The tax years for 2010 to 2018 remain open for examination by federal and/or state tax jurisdictions. The Company is currently not under examination by any other tax jurisdictions for any tax year.
Going Concern
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred a loss since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $
There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise any capital through any type of offering.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
There have been no new accounting pronouncements during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 that we believe would have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The following information should be read in conjunction with (i) the financial statements of Artisan Consumer Goods, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q together with (ii) the more detailed business information and the June 30, 2023 audited financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Form 10-K (File No. 000-54838; the “Form 10-K”), as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 12, 2023. Statements in this section and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q that are not statements of historical or current fact constitute “forward-looking” statements.
OVERVIEW
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on September 14, 2009 and has established a fiscal year end of June 30.
Going Concern
To date the Company has little operations or revenues and consequently has incurred recurring losses from operations. The Company has incurred a loss since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $19,264,186 at September 30, 2023 and further losses are anticipated in the development of its business raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand, loans from directors and/or private placement of common stock.
The Company plans to raise additional funds through debt or equity offerings. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise any capital through this or any other offerings.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Please refer to Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the accompanying Notes to the Financial Notes.
PLAN OF OPERATION
Our plan of operation for the following twelve months is as follows:
On July 15, 2021, we acquired the assets of Paleo Scavenger, LLC for $10,000. Paleo owns the Within / Without Granola (“WWG”) brand. The purchase price includes the WWG trademarks, brands, books, records, intellectual property, commercial sales channel, customer lists and manufacturing rights. Early in 2021, WWG ceased operations and we restarted the manufacturing process in June 2022.
We generated our first sales since inception during August 2022. We are currently selling our original and maple flavored granola products on Shopify. During February 2023, the inventory from the first run of the Within / Without Granola products expired and the remaining inventory was written off. The Company is searching for a new manufacturer to produce smaller batches of the Within / Without Granola products. As of November 20, 2023, a new manufacturer has not been engaged.
We must raise at least $100,000 to commence our plan of operation, described above, and fund our ongoing operational expenses. We have no assurance that future financing will materialize. If that financing is not available, we may be unable to continue our operations. Management believes that if we are successful in raising $100,000, we will be able to generate sales revenue within the following twelve months thereof. However, if such financing is not available, we could fail to satisfy our future cash requirements. We have no assurance that future financing will materialize. Management believes that if subsequent private placements are successful, we will be able to generate sales revenue within the following twelve months thereof. However, additional equity financing may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all, and thus we could fail to satisfy our future cash requirements.
If we are unsuccessful in raising at least $100,000 through a private placement, we will then have to seek additional funds through debt financing, which would be highly difficult for a new, development stage business to obtain. Therefore, the Company is highly dependent upon the success of an anticipated private placement offering and failure thereof would result in the Company having to seek capital from other sources such as debt financing, which may not even be available to the Company. However, if such financing were available, because we are a development stage company with little in the way of operations to date, we would likely have to pay additional costs associated with high-risk loans and be subject to an above market interest rate. If and when these funds are obtained, management would evaluate the terms of such debt financing and determine whether the business could sustain operations and growth and manage the debt load. If we cannot raise additional proceeds via a private placement of our common stock or secure debt financing, we would be required to cease business operations and as a result, investors in our common stock would lose all of their investment.
Results of Operations for the Three months Ended September 30, 2023 and 2022
Overview. Artisan Consumer Goods, Inc. is a Nevada corporation, originally formed on September 19, 2009. We are attempting to restart the Within / Without Granola (“WWG”) brand acquired on July 15, 2021. We generated our first sales in August 2022. We generated sales of $-0- and $865 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company has generated net losses of $5,935 and $20,912 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease in net loss of $14,977 is attributable to the factors discussed below.
Revenues. We had revenues of $-0- and $865 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. We had our first sales of our original and maple flavored granola products in August 2022. During February 2023, the inventory from the first run of the Within / Without Granola products expired. The Company is searching for a new manufacturer to produce smaller batches of the Within / Without Granola products. As of November 20, 2023, a new manufacturer has not been engaged.
Gross Margin. Once cost of revenue and other expenses to generate revenue are considered, we had reported gross margins of $-0- and $431 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Expenses. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, we incurred total operating expenses of $5,935 and $21,358. The decrease of $15,423 was primarily attributable to an approximate $10,000 decrease in professional fees and an approximate $5,000 decrease in other general and administrative expenses as our operations is currently on hold.
Other Income (Expense). Our total other income (expense) was $-0- and $15 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease of $15 was attributable to a $15 decrease in other income related to the change in market value of shares issued to Mr. Drury but not yet sold (See Note 3 – Related Party Transaction in the accompanying notes to the financial statements).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash balance was $15,322 and working capital deficit was $269,073 at September 30, 2023 compared to a cash balance of $2,067 and working capital deficit of $264,378 at June 30, 2023. Total expenditures over the next 12 months are expected to be approximately $100,000. If we experience a shortage of funds prior to generating revenues from operations we may utilize funds from our directors, who have informally agreed to advance funds to allow us to pay for operating costs, however they have no formal commitment, arrangement or legal obligation to advance or loan funds to us. Management believes our current cash balance will not be sufficient to fund our operations for the next twelve months.
As at September 30, 2023, our total assets were $18,697 and were comprised of cash for $15,322, intellectual property for $2,375 (net of accumulated amortization) and trademarks for $1,000. The intellectual property and trademarks resulted from our July 15, 2021 acquisition of the Within / Without Granola brand.
As at September 30, 2023, our current liabilities of $284,395 were comprised of accounts payable of $52,472, accrued liabilities for $48,257 and related party loans of $183,666. As at September 30, 2023, our stockholders’ deficiency was $265,698.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
We have not generated positive cash flows from operating activities. Net cash used in operations was $1,745 and $10,072 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, net cash flows provided by financing activities was $15,000 and $-0-, respectively from cash advances from our CEO.
