Note 2 – Going Concern
The
condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a “going concern” basis, which contemplates the realization
of assets and liquidation of liabilities in a normal course of business. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents
of $
After careful consideration and analysis of the economics, supply chain, processing logistics, and management of manpower the Company decided to consolidate operations in its CO operations in Mead and Ft. Morgan. The Company has very limited processing ability via 3rd party vendors to process its owned biomass into isolate.
As a result of the consolidation of the Florida and Tennessee operations into Fort Morgan, Colorado and the subsequent Article 9 auction sale of the primary hemp division assets, the Colorado operation has limited ability to process any materials other than through third party operations.
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Note 3 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, these interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the management of the Company, as defined below, these unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly the information set forth therein. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year.
The consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, 2023 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (“2023 Form 10-K”). The interim consolidated financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the 2023 Form 10-K.

Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein include the accounts of Can B Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses in those financial statements. Certain significant accounting policies that contain subjective management estimates and assumptions include those related to revenue recognition, inventory, goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, income taxes and deferred taxes. Descriptions of these policies are discussed in the Company’s 2022 Form 10-K. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, and adjusts when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates and assumptions. Significant changes, if any, in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods.
Significant Accounting Policies
The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in “Note 3: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our 2023 Form 10-K.

Segment reporting
As of March 31, 2024, the Company reports operating results and financial data in one operating and reportable segment. The Chief Executive Officer, who is the chief operating decision maker, manages the Company as a single profit center in order to promote collaboration, provide comprehensive service offerings across the entire customer base, and provide incentives to employees based on the success of the organization as a whole. Although certain information regarding selected products or services is discussed for purposes of promoting an understanding of the Company’s business, the chief operating decision maker manages the Company and allocates resources at the consolidated level.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the prior year consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassification adjustments had no effect on the Company’s previously reported net loss.
Note 4 – Fair Value Measurements
The carrying value and fair value of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows:

The Note requires the Company to use reasonable commercial efforts to complete an offering which will result in an uplisting of its common stock to a national securities exchange within a reasonable time following the issuance of the Note. The Note contains certain negative covenants, including a prohibition on the incurrence of debt that is senior or pari passu to the indebtedness represented by the Note, the creation of liens on the Company’s assets, the payment of dividends and other distributions on the Company’s common stock, the repurchase of the Company’s common stock, the sale of a significant portion of the Company’s assets and the repayment of indebtedness other than existing indebtedness.
The
Company may elect to pay all or a portion of a monthly installment due under the Note by converting such amount into shares of the Company’s
common stock at a price of $
If the Company receives cash proceeds from any source, including payments from customers or from the issuance of equity or debt, WOMF can require the Company to apply 100% of such proceeds to the repayment of the Note.
If the Company completes a placement of securities, WOMF will have the right to accept such new securities in lieu of the Note and Warrant. For so long as the Note is outstanding, if the Company issues a security or amends the terms of a security issued before the issue date of the Note, and WOMF believes that terms of the new or amended security are more favorable to the holder than the terms provided to WOMF, WOMF may require that such terms become part of WOMF’s transaction documents with the Company.
In
the event of a default under the Note, the Company shall be required to pay WOMF an amount equal to the amount determined by multiplying
the principal amount then outstanding plus default interest by
WOMF has been granted a right of first refusal to participate in future financing transactions conducted by the Company.

The Company has entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with WOMF pursuant to which the Company has agreed to file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register the shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Note and the exercise of the Warrant for public resale. The Company filed the registration statement on May 12, 2023 and it was declared effective on May 22, 2023. WOMF has also been granted piggyback registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Note and the exercise of the Warrant. Each of the Note and Warrant grants full ratchet anti-dilution protection to WOMF in the event that the Company issues common stock or rights to purchase common stock at a price less than the conversion or exercise price then in effect.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Can B̅ Corp. was originally formed as a Florida corporation on October 11, 2005, under the name of WrapMail, Inc. Effective January 5, 2015, we acquired 100% ownership of Prosperity Systems, Inc., which the Company is in the process of dissolving. Effective December 28, 2018, we acquired 100% ownership of Pure Health Products. In November 2018, we formed Duramed as a wholly owned subsidiary. The Company is presently in the process of dissolving Prosperity.
The Company is in the business of promoting health and wellness through its development, manufacture and sale of products containing cannabinoids derived from hemp biomass and the licensing of durable medical devises. Can B̅’s products include oils, creams, moisturizers, isolate, gel caps, spa products, and concentrates and lifestyle products. Can B̅ develops its own line of proprietary products as well seeks synergistic value through acquisitions in the hemp industry. Can B̅ aims to be the premier provider of the highest quality hemp derived products on the market through sourcing the best raw material and offering a variety of products we believe will improve people’s lives in a variety of areas.
On March 14, 2024, an auction of the assets of our hemp division was conducted under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code following allegations by Arena that we were in breach of our obligations under certain notes and a forbearance agreement. See “Item 3. Legal Proceedings.”
Following the auction, we have continued our hemp operations on a reduced scale using equipment provided by third parties and the services of third-party processors. Historically, revenues from our hemp division supported, in part, our durable medical equipment business conducted through Duramed. Due to reduced support from the hemp division, Duramed is operating with reduced staff which has adversely impacted revenues. While we plan to continue our hemp and durable medical equipment operations for the near term, our primary focus will be on protecting and commercializing the cannabis patents recently acquired by Nascent.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CANB and its operational wholly owned subsidiaries.
Results of Operations
Three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to three months ended March 31, 2023.
Revenues decreased $622,609. The decrease largely due to the normalization of sales activity with 2022 positively impacted by the wind down of restrictions related to the Covid-19 Pandemic surrounding elective surgeries, enabling an increase in the usage of the Company’s Duramed product lines and ultrasound device associated with patient recovery.
Cost of product sales increased $668,584 due to inventory adjustments taken.
Operating expenses increased $1,817,561 as a result of loss on sale of property and equipment offset by decrease consulting fees, rent and other operating expenses.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At March 31, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $26,582 and negative working capital of $6,165,773. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $7,424. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, $216,851 was provided by operating activities and $224,275 was provided by operating activities
The Company currently has no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources.
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
None.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(A) EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As of March 31, 2024, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer conducted an evaluation regarding the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based upon the evaluation of these controls and procedures, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
(B) CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting in our fiscal quarter for the period March 31, 2024 covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II- OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On April 28, 2021, the Company was served with a commercial legal action against the Company and certain officers by David Weissberg and Donna Marino, who are investors in the Company (collectively, the “Investors”). The complaint was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Nassau, Index No. 605191/2021. The complaint alleges four causes of action.
The first cause of action alleges that the Company breached Securities Purchase Agreements with the Investors by failing to assist the Investors in getting opinion letters to remove the restrictive legends from their shares, even though the Company made introductions and requests to the Company’s counsel, provided supporting documents for the Investor’s shares, and ultimately the opinion letters could not be rendered because the Investors failed to submit required documentation to counsel.
The second cause of action is similar to the first but related to alleged misrepresentations regarding removing the restrictive legends from shares that were issued for services rather than purchased.
The third cause of action alleges that the Company mislead the Investors to invest $500,000. The final cause of action alleges that officers of the Company made misrepresentations regarding the value of the Company’s stock, which caused David Weissberg to owe more in taxes than he was expecting.
We have consulted with attorneys and believe the Investors’ claims are meritless, factually inaccurate, and frivolous. We intend to vigorously defend ourselves against the aforementioned legal action and will likely bring counterclaims against the Investors.
Approximately November 24, 2021, a vendor of the Company filed amended suit against the Company in Florida, Case No. 2021 CA 001797, for monies allegedly owed and civil theft relating to such monies and related products and fraud in the inducement. We do not believe we owe such vendor any amount. The court has entered a default judgement against the Company for our failure to timely answer the complaint, which default has since been overturned. Subsequently the case has been set for interrogatories and document production which activities are being fulfilled.
On or about August 11, 2022, a Complaint was filed by Evexia Plus, LLC against Can B Corp. in a product payment trade dispute. Case Number 63-CV-2022-900692.00 in the Circuit Court of Tuscaloosa County, AL. On 1-26-2023 the court ordered a Summary Judgement in the amount of $336,924. The parties are trying to work out a payment schedule tied to production to satisfy the judgement.
On December 1, 2023,the Company, received a notice from Arena Special Opportunities Partners I, LP, Arena Special Opportunities Fund, LP and Arena Investors, LP (collectively, the “Arena Entities” or “Arena”) advising that by virtue of defaults in the performance of the obligations of the Company and its subsidiaries to the Arena Entities, the Arena Entities intended to conduct a public auction of certain assets of the Company and its subsidiaries under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code.
The Arena Entities collectively hold approximately $3,838,770 aggregate principal amount of Convertible Notes (the “Arena Notes”) issued by the Company. The Arena Entities previously notified the Company and its subsidiaries that they were in default of certain obligations under the Forbearance Agreement dated February 27, 2023 among the Company, its subsidiaries and the Arena Entities pursuant to which the Arena Entities agreed to forbear from exercising remedies under the Arena Notes until December 31, 2024 provided that no defaults occurred under the Arena Notes or the Forbearance Agreement. The alleged defaults include a failure to deliver account control agreements, failure to enter into a servicing agreement, failure to timely make certain payments and the unauthorized use and misuse of receivable assigned to the Arena Entities.
| 21 |
On February 27, 2024, the Supreme Court, County of New York (the “Court”), denied a motion made by the Company seeking a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction to halt the proposed sale. As a result of the decision, the Arena Entities proceeded with its proposed auction of the Company’s hemp division assets and the auction took place on March 14, 2024. Approximately $300,000 of proceeds were generated by the sale.
On April 7, 2024, Arena filed a complaint in the Court against the Company, it subsidiaries and certain officers of the Company and its subsidiaries alleging tortious interference with the auction and seeking a declaratory judgment that the Company is in breach of the Arena Notes and the Forbearance Agreement and that Arena has the right to auction certain equipment held at a Company facility that is not owned by the Company or any of its subsidiaries. The Company believes that Arena’s claims are without merit and intends to vigorously defend Arena’s claims.
Other than above, we are not aware of any pending or threatened legal proceedings in which we are involved.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes to the risk factors discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, which was filed with the SEC on April 15, 2024 except as described below.
An auction of the assets of our hemp division was conducted under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code following allegations by certain affiliated creditors that we were in breach of our obligations under certain notes and a forbearance agreement. See “Item 1. Legal Proceedings.”
Following the auction, we have continued our hemp operations on a reduced scale using equipment provided by third parties and the services of third-party processors. Historically, revenues from our hemp division supported, in part, our durable medical equipment business conducted through Duramed, Inc. Due to reduced support from the hemp division, Duramed, Inc. is operating with reduced staff which has adversely impacted revenues. While we plan to continue our hemp and durable medical equipment operations for the near term, our primary focus will be on protecting and commercializing the cannabis patents recently acquired by Nascent; however the impact of the auction on hemp and Duramed divisions increases the risk that we will not be able to continue as a going concern.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
In February 2024, the Company issued options to purchase 25,264,463 shares of it common stock at an exercise price of $.05 per share to officers, directors, employees and consultants. The Company relied upon the exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in connection with these issuances.
In February 2024, the Company completed the sale of a promissory note in the principal amount of $75,000 to a creditor. The purchase price of the note was $50,000, representing a 33.33% original issue discount. The note becomes due on November 29, 2024 and bears interest, payable upon maturity, at a rate of 12% per annum. The holder may convert the purchase price of the note and accrued and unpaid interest into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time at a conversion price of $0.07743 per share. The Company relied upon the exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act in connection with this transaction.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company issued 11,045,387 shares of common stock upon the conversion of outstanding notes The Company relied upon the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933 in connection with these issuances.
ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
In September 2023, Arena Special Opportunities Partners I, LP and Arena Special Opportunities Fund, LP provided notice to the Company that it is in default of certain terms of their Forbearance Agreement with the Company dated as of February 27, 2023 and thus have right to accelerate the payment of the Company’s obligations under the $3.8 million aggregate principal of notes held by them. In April 2024, the Arena entities filed a lawsuit seeking a declaratory judgment that the Company is in breach of the Arena Notes and the Forbearance Agreement
As of March 31, 2023, notes payable in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $7.8 million were past due.
