Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

(Amounts expressed in US Dollars)

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Gilla Inc. (“Gilla”, the “Company” or the “Registrant”) was incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada on March 28, 1995 under the name of Truco, Inc. The Company’s registered address is 475 Fentress Blvd., Unit L, Daytona Beach, Florida 32114.

The current business of the Company consists of the manufacturing, marketing and distribution of E-liquid (“E-liquid”), which is the liquid used in vaporizers and electronic cigarettes (“E-cigarettes”), and developer of turn-key vapor and cannabis concentrate solutions for high-terpene vape oils, pure crystalline, high-performance vape pens and other targeted products.

2. GOING CONCERN

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, at June 30, 2018, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $22,543,391 (December 31, 2017 – $19,898,841) and a working capital deficiency of $9,928,897 (December 31, 2017 – $4,659,008) as well as negative cash flows from operating activities of $836,813 (June 30, 2017 – $1,250,358) for the six months ended June 30, 2018. These conditions represent material uncertainty that cast significant doubts about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon achieving a profitable level of operations or on the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to fund ongoing operations. Management believes that the Company will not be able to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months without additional financing or increased revenues.

To meet these objectives, the Company continues to seek other sources of financing in order to support existing operations and to expand the range and scope of its business. However, there are no assurances that any such financing can be obtained on acceptable terms and in a timely manner, if at all. Failure to obtain the necessary working capital would have a material adverse effect on the business prospects and, depending upon the shortfall, the Company may have to curtail or cease its operations.

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recorded assets or liabilities, that might be material, should the Company have to curtail operations or be unable to continue in existence.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform with the current year’s presentation.

The accounting policies of the Company are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Outlined below are those policies considered particularly significant:

(a)

Basis of Consolidation

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries: Gilla Operations, LLC; E Vapor Labs Inc. (“E Vapor Labs”); Gilla Enterprises Inc. (“Gilla Enterprises”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries Gilla Europe Kft., Gilla Operations Europe s.r.o. and Vape Brands International Inc. (“VBI”); Hystyle Brands Inc. (“Hystyle”); E-Liq World, LLC; Charlie’s Club, Inc.; Gilla Operations Worldwide Limited (“Gilla Worldwide”); Gilla Franchises, LLC and its wholly owned subsidiary Legion of Vape, LLC; and Snoke Distribution Canada Ltd. and its wholly owned subsidiary Snoke Distribution USA, LLC. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in preparing these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

(b)

Advertising Costs

In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 720, Other Expenses (“ASC 720”), Company expenses all advertising costs as incurred. During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2018, the Company expensed $92,839 (June 30, 2017 – $91,847) as corporate promotions which have been recorded as an administrative expense.

(c)

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”), requiring an entity to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. ASU 2014-09 as amended by ASU No. 2015-14, ASU No. 2016-08, ASU No. 2016-10, ASU No. 2016-12 and ASU No. 2016-20, is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and is applied on either a modified retrospective or full retrospective basis. Adoption of ASU No. 2014-09 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing (“ASU 2016-10”). ASU 2016-10 clarifies the following two aspects of Topic 606: identifying performance obligations and the licensing implementation guidance, while retaining the related principles for those areas. The provisions of this update are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early application permitted. Adoption of ASU No. 2016-10 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients (“ASU 2016-12”). The core principal of ASU 2016-12 is the recognition of revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The provisions of this update are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early application permitted. Adoption of ASU No. 2016-12 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force) (“ASU 2016-15”), which clarifies how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. Among other clarifications, the guidance requires that cash proceeds received from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance (COLI) policies be classified as cash inflows from investing activities and that cash payments for premiums on COLI policies may be classified as cash outflows for investing activities, operating activities or a combination of both. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. Retrospective application is required. Adoption of ASU No. 2016-15 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory ("ASU 2016-16"). ASU 2016-16 prohibits the recognition of current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity transfer until the asset has been sold to an outside party. The amendment in ASU 2016-16 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Adoption of ASU No. 2016-16 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting (“ASU 2017-09”). ASU 2017-09 clarifies which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. The standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. Adoption of ASU No. 2017-09 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU No. 2016-01, Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“ASU 2016-01”) which revises the classification and measurement of investments in equity securities. ASU 2016-01 requires that equity investments, except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, be measured at fair value and changes in fair value are recognized in net income. ASU 2016-01 also provides a new measurement alternative for equity investments that do not have a readily determinable fair value (cost method investments). These investments are measured at cost, less any impairment, adjusted for observable price changes. Adoption of ASU 2016-01 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

(d)

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and other than the below, does not expect the future adoption of any such pronouncements to have a significant impact on its results of operations, financial condition or cash flow.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize all leases with terms in excess of one year on their balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability at the commencement date. The new standard also simplifies the accounting for sale and leaseback transactions. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods therein and must be adopted using a modified retrospective method for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the guidance and has not yet determined the impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which requires financial assets measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis. The measurement of expected losses is based upon historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the guidance and has not yet determined the impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”). The new guidance eliminates the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill (Step 2 of the current two-step goodwill impairment test under ASC 350). Instead, entities will record an impairment charge based on the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value (Step 1 of the current two-step goodwill impairment test). ASU 2017-04 is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for annual and interim goodwill impairment testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company is evaluating the guidance and has not yet determined the impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260) Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): I. Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features; II. Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception (“ASU 2017-11”). ASU 2017-11 allows a financial instrument with a down-round feature to no longer automatically be classified as a liability solely based on the existence of the down-round provision. The update also means the instrument would not have to be accounted for as a derivative and be subject to an updated fair value measurement at each reporting period. The standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company is evaluating the guidance and has not yet determined the impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income: Reclassification of Certain Tax effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“ASU 2018-02”) which allows for the reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for the stranded tax effects arising from the change in the reduction of the U.S. federal statutory income tax rate to 21% from 35%. The tax effects of items included in accumulated comprehensive income at December 31, 2017 do not reflect the appropriate tax rate. ASU 2018-02 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is evaluating the guidance and has not yet determined the impact on its consolidated financial statements.

On July 1, 2015, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of E Vapor Labs, a Florida based E-liquid manufacturer. The Company acquired E Vapor Labs in order to procure an E-liquid manufacturing platform allowing the Company to secure large private label contracts as well as manufacture its own brands going forward.

In consideration for the acquisition, the Company paid to the vendors, $225,000 in cash and issued $900,000 in unsecured promissory notes on closing (collectively, the “Unsecured Promissory Notes”). The Unsecured Promissory Notes were issued in three equal tranches of $300,000 due four (4), nine (9) and eighteen (18) months respectfully from closing (individually, “Promissory Notes A”, “Promissory Notes B”, and “Promissory Notes C”, respectively). The Unsecured Promissory Notes were all unsecured and non-interest bearing. The Unsecured Promissory Notes were all and each subject to adjustments as outlined in the share purchase agreement (the “SPA”), dated June 25, 2015. At December 31, 2015, the Company adjusted the Promissory Notes A for $116,683 which was the known difference in the working capital balance at closing of the acquisition from the amount specified in the SPA.

On August 30, 2017, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the “Promissory Note Settlement”) with the holders of the Unsecured Promissory Notes to settle all claims between them. As a result of the Promissory Note Settlement, the Company agreed to settle the Unsecured Promissory Notes with a total payment of $600,000 payable as two (2) payments of $20,000 due September 21, 2017 and October 21, 2017 and $10,000 per month for the following fifty-six (56) months beginning November 21, 2017. The Company may prepay the balance of the Promissory Note Settlement at any time and would receive a 10% discount on the outstanding balance upon doing so. A 15% discount rate has been used to calculate the present value of the Promissory Note Settlement based on the Company’s estimate of cost of financing for comparable instruments with similar term and risk profiles. Over the term of the Promissory Note Settlement, interest will be accrued at 15% per annum to accrete the Promissory Note Settlement to its respective principal amount. During the six month period ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded $28,348 in interest expense related to the accretion of the Promissory Note Settlement (June 30, 2017 – $nil).

No earn-out had ever been achieved and the Company has since retired the TMA Brands.

On April 15, 2016, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the “TMA Settlement Agreement”) with TMA and the vendors of TMA (collectively, the “TMA Vendors”). Subject to the terms and conditions of the TMA Settlement Agreement, the parties settled: (i) any and all compensation and expenses owing by the Company to the TMA Vendors and (ii) the $400,000 of Amounts Owing on Acquisition in exchange for the Company paying to the TMA Vendors a total settlement consideration of $133,163 payable as $100,000 in cash and $33,163 in the Company’s assets as a payment-in-kind.

The agent who arranged the Term Loan was not a related party of the Company. The Term Loan bears interest at a rate of 16% per annum, on the outstanding principal, and was to mature on July 3, 2017, whereby any outstanding principal together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon shall be due and payable. The Term Loan is secured by an intercreditor and subordination agreement as well as a security agreement. The Term Loan is subject to a monthly cash sweep, calculated as the total of (i) CAD $0.50 for every E-liquid bottle, smaller than 15 ml, sold by the Company within a monthly period; and (ii) CAD $1.00 for every E-liquid bottle, greater than 15 ml, sold by the Company within a monthly period (the “Cash Sweep”). The Cash Sweep will be disbursed to the Lenders in the following priority: first, to pay the monthly interest due on the Term Loan; and second, to repay any remaining principal outstanding on the Term Loan. The Company may elect to repay the outstanding principal of the Term Loan together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon prior to the maturity, subject to an early repayment penalty of the maximum of (i) 3 months interest on the outstanding principal; or (ii) 50% of the interest payable on the outstanding principal until maturity (the “Early Repayment Penalty”). The Term Loan shall be immediately due and payable at the option of the Lenders if there is a change in key personnel meaning the Company’s current Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. On January 18, 2016 and in connection to the Term Loan, the Company issued warrants for the purchase of 250,000 Common Shares (note 16(c)) exercisable until December 31, 2017 at an exercise price of $0.20 per share.

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are both participants of the consortium of Lenders of the Term Loan, each having committed to provide ten percent of the principal amount of the Term Loan. Neither the Chief Executive Officer nor the Chief Financial Officer participated in the warrants issued or warrants extended in connection with the Term Loan and both parties have appropriately abstained from voting on the Board of Directors to approve the Term Loan, where applicable.

On July 15, 2016, the Company and the Lenders of the Term Loan entered into a term loan amendment (the “Term Loan Amendment”) in which the Lenders agreed to extend to the Company an additional CAD $600,000 in principal to increase the Term Loan facility up to the aggregate principal amount of CAD $1,600,000. The parties also extended the maturity date of the Term Loan to July 2, 2018 with all other terms of the Term Loan remaining the same.

The relative fair value of the warrants issued were recorded as debt discount to be amortized over the life of the loan.

During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company was advanced CAD $1,600,000 from the Term Loan including the CAD $294,000 and CAD $3,093 rolled in from a revolving credit facility the Company previously entered into with the Lenders as well as CAD $240,581 of advances from the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

On February 27, 2017, the Company and the Lenders of the Term Loan entered into a term loan amendment (the “Term Loan Amendment No.2”) to amend certain terms and conditions of the Term Loan. Pursuant to the Term Loan Amendment No.2, the parties agreed to modify the Cash Sweep to be calculated as the total of CAD $0.01667 per ml of E-liquid sold by the Company within a monthly period, such modification to be retroactively applied as of January 1, 2017.

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer received a total of 93,622 units which included 93,622 Common Shares and warrants for the purchase of 46,811 Common Shares. The Term Loan Amendment No.2 was accounted for as a modification of debt and no gain or loss was recognized on the amendment.

The relative fair value of the warrants issued in relation to the Term Loan and Term Loan amendments were recorded as debt discount to be amortized over the life of the loan. At June 30, 2018, the value of the Term Loan was $1,078,702 including a debt discount of $nil (December 31, 2017 – $1,051,334 including a debt discount of $54,815).

Convertible Debentures Series C

On May 20, 2016, the Company issued 375 unsecured subordinated convertible debenture units (the “Convertible Debentures Series C”) for proceeds of $375,000. Each Convertible Debentures Series C consisted of an unsecured subordinated convertible debenture having a principal amount of $1,000 and warrants for the purchase of 10,000 Common Shares at a price of $0.20 per share for a period of twenty-four months from the date of issuance (note 16(e)). The Convertible Debentures Series C matured on January 31, 2018 and charged interest at a rate of 8% per annum, accrued quarterly in arrears. The face value of the Convertible Debentures Series C, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, are convertible into Common Shares at a fixed conversion rate of $0.10 per share at any time prior to maturity. The Company also has the option to force conversion of any outstanding Convertible Debentures Series C at any time after six months from issuance and prior to maturity. For Canadian holders, the Company may only force conversion of any outstanding Convertible Debentures Series C at such time that the Company is a reporting issuer within the jurisdiction of Canada. Of the $375,000 in face value of Convertible Debentures Series C issued on May 20, 2016 (“Convertible Debentures Series C-1”), $55,000 were issued in settlement of amounts owing to related parties (note 19(c)) and $10,000 were issued in settlement of amounts owing to an employee. The Company incurred costs of $22,725 as a result of the issuance of Convertible Debentures Series C-1 on May 20, 2016.

On December 31, 2016, the Company issued an additional 275 units of Convertible Debentures Series C (“Convertible Debentures Series C-2”) for proceeds of $275,000 which were fully issued in exchange for cash.

On January 20, 2017, the Company issued an additional 75 units of Convertible Debentures Series C (“Convertible Debentures Series C-3”) in settlement of $65,000 owing to a related party (note 19(c)) and $10,000 owing in shareholder loans (note 11(ii)).

The Company evaluated the terms and conditions of the Convertible Debentures Series A, Convertible Debentures Series B and each tranche of Convertible Debentures Series C (together, the “Convertible Debentures”) under the guidance of ASC No. 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The conversion feature met the definition of conventional convertible for purposes of applying the conventional convertible exemption. The definition of conventional contemplates a limitation on the number of shares issuable under the arrangement. The instrument was convertible into a fixed number of shares and there were no down round protection features contained in the contracts.

Since a portion of the Convertible Debentures were issued in exchange for nonconvertible instruments at the original instrument’s maturity date, the guidance of ASC 470-20-30-19 & 20 were applied. The fair value of the newly issued Convertible Debentures were equal to the redemption amounts owed at the maturity date of the original instruments. Therefore, there was no gain or loss on extinguishment of debt recorded. After the exchange occurred, the Company was required to consider whether the new hybrid contracts embodied a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”).

For the face value $425,000 of Convertible Debentures Series A issued on September 3, 2013, the calculation of the effective conversion amount did not result in a BCF because the effective conversion price was greater than the Company’s stock price on the date of issuance, therefore no BCF was recorded. However, for the face value $797,000 of Convertible Debentures Series A that were issued on December 23, 2013 and the face value $178,000 of Convertible Debentures Series A that were issued on February 11, 2014, the calculation of the effective conversion amount resulted in a BCF because the effective conversion price was less than the Company’s stock price on the date of issuance and a BCF in the amount of $797,000 and $178,000, respectively, were recorded in additional paid-in capital.

For the face value $650,000 of Convertible Debentures Series B issued on December 31, 2015, the relative fair value of the warrants included in the issuance totaling $287,757 was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The resulting fair value of such Convertible Debentures Series B issuance was calculated to be $362,243. The calculation of the effective conversion amount resulted in a BCF because the effective conversion price was less than the Company’s stock price on the date of issuance and a BCF in the amount of $133,657 was recorded in additional paid-in capital.

For the face value $375,000 of Convertible Debentures Series C-1 issued on May 20, 2016, the relative fair value of the warrants included in the issuance totaling $234,737 (note 16(e)) was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The resulting fair value of such Convertible Debentures Series C-1 was calculated to be $140,263. The calculation of the effective conversion amount resulted in a BCF because the effective conversion price was less than the Company’s stock price on the date of issuance and a BCF in the amount of $117,538, net of transaction costs, was recorded in additional paid-in capital.

For the face value $275,000 of Convertible Debentures Series C-2 issued on December 31, 2016, the relative fair value of the warrants included in the issuance totaling $143,871 (note 16(i)) was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The resulting fair value of such Convertible Debentures Series C-2 was calculated to be $131,129. The calculation of the effective conversion amount resulted in a BCF because the effective conversion price was less than the Company’s stock price on the date of issuance and a BCF in the amount of $131,129, was recorded in additional paid-in capital.

For the face value $75,000 of Convertible Debentures Series C-3 issued on January 20, 2017, the relative fair value of the warrants included in the issuance totaling $43,737 (note 16(k)) was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The resulting fair value of such Convertible Debentures Series C-3 was calculated to be $31,263. The calculation of the effective conversion amount resulted in a BCF because the effective conversion price was less than the Company’s stock price on the date of issuance and a BCF in the amount of $31,263, was recorded in additional paid-in capital.

The BCF and the fair value of the warrants, which represents debt discount, is accreted over the life of the Convertible Debentures using the effective interest rate. Amortization of debt discount was recorded as follows:

22. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT

(i) Credit Risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s credit risk is primarily attributable to fluctuations in the realizable values of its cash and trade receivables. Cash accounts are maintained with major international financial institutions of reputable credit and therefore bear minimal credit risk. In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to credit risk from its customers and the related trade receivables which are subject to normal commercial credit risks. A substantial portion of the Company’s trade receivables are concentrated with a limited number of large customers, all of which the Company believes are subject to normal industry credit risks. At June 30, 2018, the Company recorded an allowance of $433,227 (December 31, 2017 – $190,543) in regards to customers with past due amounts. At June 30, 2018, 42% (December 31, 2017 – 34%) of the Company’s trade receivables are due from one customer and 94% (December 31, 2017 – 68%) of the trade receivables are due from six customers. During the six month period ended June 30, 2018, 6% (June 30, 2017 – 13%) of the Company’s sales were to one customer.

(ii) Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation. The Company manages liquidity risk by closely monitoring changing conditions in its investees, participating in the day to day management and by forecasting cash flows from operations and anticipated investing and financing activities. At June 30, 2018, the Company had liabilities due to unrelated parties through its financial obligations over the next six years in the aggregate principal amount of $9,515,954. Of such amount, the Company has obligations to repay $9,116,555 over the next twelve months with the remaining $399,399 becoming due within the following five years.

iii) Foreign Currency Risk

Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The risks and fluctuations are related to cash, accounts payable and trade receivables that are denominated in CAD, HUF and EUR.

Analysis by currency in CAD, HUF and EUR equivalents is as follows:

June 30, 2018	Accounts Payable	Trade Receivables	Cash
CAD	$1,404,591	$38,358	$24,854
HUF	$125,998	$-	$868
EUR	$214,561	$46,089	$13,586

The effect of a 10% strengthening of the United States Dollar against the Canadian Dollar, the Hungarian Forint and the Euro at the reporting date on the CAD, HUF and EUR-denominated trade receivables and payables carried at that date would, had all other variables held constant, have resulted in an increase in profit for the year and increase of net assets of $134,138, $12,513 and $15,489, respectively. A 10% weakening in the exchange rate would, on the same basis, have decreased profit and decreased net assets by $134,138, $12,513 and $15,489, respectively.

The Company purchases some of its inventory in a foreign currency, at June 30, 2018, the Company included $151,476 (December 31, 2017 – $99,518) in inventory that was purchased in a foreign currency on its condensed consolidated interim balance sheet. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments to reduce its exposure to this risk.

(iv) Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its fixed interest rate financial instruments. These fixed-rate instruments subject the Company to a fair value risk. The interest rates on the majority of the Company’s existing interest bearing debt are fixed. Sensitivity to a plus or minus 25 basis points change in rates would not significantly affect the fair value of this debt.

23. SEGMENTED INFORMATION

The Company currently operates in only one business segment, namely, manufacturing, marketing and distributing of vaping products in North America and Europe. Total long lived assets by geographic location are as follows:

Recent Developments

On May 10, 2016, the U.S. Federal Food & Drug Administration (“FDA”) finalized a new rule, captioned, the “Deeming Tobacco Products To Be Subject to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act”, which extends the FDA’s authority to include the regulation of electronic nicotine delivery systems (“ENDS”) (such as e-cigarettes and vape pens), all cigars, hookah (waterpipe) tobacco, pipe tobacco and nicotine gels, among others. Going forward, the FDA will be able to review new nicotine products not yet on the market; regulate claims by nicotine product manufacturers and distributers; require evaluation and reporting of the ingredients of nicotine products and how they are made; and require disclosures regarding risks of nicotine products. The final rule went into effect on August 8, 2016.

In a press release dated July 28, 2017, the FDA also stated that “the FDA plans to issue foundational rules to make the product review process more efficient, predictable, and transparent for manufacturers, while upholding the agency’s public health mission. Among other things, the FDA intends to issue regulations outlining what information the agency expects to be included in Premarket Tobacco Applications (PMTAs), Modified Risk Tobacco Product (MRTP) applications and reports to demonstrate Substantial Equivalence (SE). The FDA also plans to finalize guidance on how it intends to review PMTAs for ENDS. The agency also will continue efforts to assist industry in complying with federal tobacco regulations through online information, meetings, webinars and guidance documents”.

As at the date of this Report, the Company continues to evaluate the requirements of PMTA submissions on its Products, and given the expected cost associated with each application in the hundreds of thousands of dollars, the Company intends to evaluate the potential returns associated with the preparation and submission of PMTAs during the remainder of the six (6) year grace period. Prospective investors are directed to the “Risk Factors” contained in the Company’s Annual Report filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.
