The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of California on March 22, 2004, and until October 2016, the Company was in the business of media advertising and acquiring high-end computer and networking equipment from resellers and end-users and then reselling this equipment at discounted prices.

 

On December 9, 2020, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment of Articles of Incorporation (the “Certificate”) with the State of California to (i) effect a forward stock split of its outstanding shares of common stock at a ratio of 7 for 1 (7:1) (the “Forward Stock Split”), (ii) increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 50,000,000 shares to 500,000,000 shares, and (iii) effectuate a name change (the “Name Change”). Fractional shares that resulted from the Forward Stock Split will be rounded up to the next highest number. As a result of the Name Change, the Company’s name changed from “Intelligent Buying, Inc.” to “Sentient Brands Holdings Inc.”. The Certificate was approved by the majority of the Company’s shareholders and by the Board of Directors of the Company. The effective date of the Forward Stock Split and the Name Change was March 2, 2021.

 

In connection with the above, the Company filed an Issuer Company-Related Action Notification Form with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. The Forward Stock Split and the Name Change was implemented by FINRA on March 2, 2021. Our symbol on OTC Markets was INTBD for 20 business days from March 2, 2021 (the “Notification Period”). Our new CUSIP number is 81728V 102. As a result of the name change, our symbol was changed to “SNBH” following the Notification Period. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect this forward stock split.

 

In addition, on January 29, 2021, the Company, merged with and into its wholly owned subsidiary, Sentient Brands Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger between Sentient Brands Holdings Inc., a California corporation, and Sentient Brands Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation. Sentient Brands Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation, continued as the surviving entity of the migratory merger. Pursuant to the migratory merger, the Company changed its state of incorporation from California to Nevada and each share of its common stock converted into one share of common stock of the surviving entity in the migratory merger. No dissenters’ rights were exercised by any of the Company’s stockholders in connection with the migratory merger.

 

Following the consummation of the migratory merger, the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Nevada corporation that was newly-created as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company became the articles of incorporation and bylaws for the surviving entity in the migratory merger.

 

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN

 

Basis of Presentation

 

These interim consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. The results reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 30, 2021.

 

Going concern

 

The Company currently has limited operations. These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

5

 

 

As reflected in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $2,358,357 at September 30, 2021 and had a net loss and net cash flow used in operating activities of $472,898 and $675,974 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company has a limited operating history, and its continued growth is dependent upon the continuation of selling its products; hence generating revenues and obtaining additional financing to fund future obligations and pay liabilities arising from normal business operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, implement its business plan, and generate significant revenues. There are no assurances that the Company will be successful in its efforts to generate significant revenues, maintain sufficient cash balance or report profitable operations or to continue as a going concern. The Company plans on raising capital through the sale of equity or debt instruments to implement its business plan. However, there is no assurance these plans will be realized and that any additional financings will be available to the Company on satisfactory terms and conditions, if any.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Uses of estimates in the preparation of financial statements

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net revenue and expenses during each reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash

 

The Company considers all short-term highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, our revenue recognition policy was in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which requires the recognition of sales following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

 

Net loss per common share – basic and diluted

 

Authoritative guidance on Earnings per Share requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings or loss per share (“EPS”) for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. Basic EPS excludes dilution; diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the entity.

 

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities and other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share.

 

Stock-based compensation

 

In accordance with ASC No. 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), the Company measures the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, and 2020, there were no stock based awards issued or outstanding.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

We value our financial assets and liabilities on a recurring basis using the fair value hierarchy established in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.

 

6

 

 

ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, as follows:

 

Level 1 input, which include quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 inputs, which include observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

 

Level 3 inputs, which include unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the underlying asset or liability. Level 3 assets and liabilities include those whose fair value measurements are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar valuation techniques, as well as significant management judgment or estimation.

 

Income Taxes

 

Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. The U.S. federal income tax rate is 21%.

 

NOTE 4. INVENTORIES

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the moving average method and net realizable value is the estimated selling price less costs of disposal in the ordinary course of business. The cost of inventories includes direct costs plus shipping and packaging materials.

 

As of September 30, 2021, Company product inventories valued at approximately $258,781 are contained in our storage and fulfilment center located at CN Logistics US, 3 Borinski Road Lincoln Park, NJ 07035.

On September 23, 2021 (the “Issuance Date”), the Company issued an 18% Promissory Note in the principal amount of $125,000 (the “September 2021 Note”) to an accredited investor (the “September 2021 Investor”). The September 2021 Note matures six (6) months from the Issuance Date (the “Maturity Date”), and the September 2021 Investor, at its sole election on the Maturity Date, may convert the interest accrued on the September 2021 Note into shares of common stock of the Company at $0.05 per share.

 

The Company claims an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) for the private placement of the September 2021 Note pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

Payments of principal and interest on the PPP Loan will be deferred for the first six months of the term of the PPP Loan until November 18, 2020. Principal and interest are payable monthly and may be prepaid by the Company at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties. Under the terms of the CARES Act, recipients can apply for and receive forgiveness for all or a portion of loans granted under the PPP. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations, based on the use of loan proceeds for certain permissible purposes as set forth in the PPP, including, but not limited to, payroll costs (as defined under the PPP) and mortgage interest, rent or utility costs (collectively, “Qualifying Expenses”), and on the maintenance of employee and compensation levels during the eight-week period following the funding of the PPP Loan.

Item 1.01 Entry Into A Material Definitive Agreement

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

 

On November 18, 2021 (the “Issuance Date”), Sentient Brands Holdings Inc. (the "Company") entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an accredited investor (the “November 2021 Investor”) providing for the sale by the Company to the November 2021 Investor of a 10% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $400,000 (the "November 2021 Note", and, the “Financing”), to be paid by the November 2021 Investor to the Company in two tranches (each, a “Tranche”). The first Tranche consists of a payment by the November 2021 Investor to the Company on the Issue Date of $200,000, from which the November 2021 Investor retained $5,000 to cover its legal fees. A second Tranche consisting of $200,000 will be paid by the November 2021 Investor to the Company not later than 30 days after the Issuance Date, resulting in $395,000 in total proceeds to be received by the Company in the Financing. In addition to the November 2021 Note, the November 2021 Investor also received a common share purchase warrant (the “November 2021 Warrant”, and together with the November 2021 Note, the “Securities”) to acquire 666,667 shares of common stock of the Company. The November 2021 Warrant is exercisable for five years at an exercise price of $0.45. The closing of the Financing in the amount of $400,000 occurred on November 22, 2021.

 

The maturity date (“Maturity Date”) for each Tranche is at the end of the period that begins from the date each Tranche is paid and ends 12 months thereafter, and interest associated with the November 2021 Note is 10% per annum. The November 2021 Note may be prepaid by the Company in whole or in part at any time at 105% of the outstanding principal and accrued interest. The November 2021 Note is convertible at the option of the November 2021 Investor into shares of common stock of the Company at $0.30 per share; provided, however, that in the event of default by the Company of the November 2021 Note, the Conversion Price will immediately be equal to the lesser of 22% per annum or the maximum legal amount permitted by law. The November 2021 Note and the November 2021 Warrant carry standard anti-dilution provisions. At all times while the November 2021 Note is outstanding, the Company agreed to reserve from its authorized but unissued shares of common stock seven (7) times the number of shares that is actually issuable upon full conversion of the November 2021 Note, resulting in 10,500,000 reserved shares of common stock. The November 2021 Note might be accelerated if an event of default occurs under the terms of the November 2021 Note, including, but not limited to, the Company’s failure to pay principal and interest when due, certain bankruptcy events, or if the Company is delinquent in its required SEC filings for 30 consecutive days. The November 2021 Note may not be converted and/or exercised by the November 2021 Investor into more than 4.99% of the Company's outstanding common stock at any point in time; provided, however, that this limitation on conversion may be waived by the November 2021 Investor up to a maximum of 9.99%.

 

If, prior to the Maturity Date, the Company enters into a subsequent financing on terms that are more favorable to the investor(s) in the subsequent financing than the terms of the Financing, then terms of the Financing will be amended to include such better terms so long as the November 2021 Note is outstanding. In addition, the November 2021 Investor has the right of first refusal on any financing so long as the November 2021 Note is outstanding. Additionally, the November 2021 Investor has the right to be repaid 100% of the remaining balance of principal and interest under the November 2021 Note from the net cash proceeds of any future financing closed on by the Company, provided, however, that the repayment obligation will not be applicable to the first $2,000,000 of cash proceeds in the aggregate generated by the Company from any future financing proceeds. Further, the November 2021 Investor has the right to participate in any future offering by the Company for a period of 18 months from the Issuance Date for an amount up to the Financing amount in strict accordance with the terms of such future offering.

 

The obligations of the Company under the November 2021 Note constitute a first priority security interest and rank senior with respect to any and all indebtedness of the Company existing prior to or incurred as of or following the initial Issuance Date. The obligations of the Company under the November 2021 Note are secured pursuant to the Security and Pledge Agreement entered into between the Company and the November 2021 Investor on the Issuance Date. So long as the Company has any obligation under the November 2021 Note, the Company will not incur or suffer to exist or guarantee any indebtedness that is senior to the Company’s obligations under the November 2021 Note. The November 2021 Note is secured by the assets of the Company.

 

The Company claims an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) for the private placement of these Securities pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. The November 2021 Investor is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. As of the date hereof, the Company is obligated on $400,000 in face amount of the November 2021 Note issued to the November 2021 Investor. The November 2021 Note is a debt obligation arising other than in the ordinary course of business which constitutes a direct financial obligation of the Company.

Overview

 

Sentient Brands is a next-level product development and brand management company with a focus on building innovative brands in the Luxury and Premium Market space. The Company has a Direct-to Consumer business model focusing on the integration of CBD, wellness and beauty for conscious consumers. The Company incorporates an omnichannel approach in its marketing strategies to ensure that its products are accessible across both digital and retail channels. The Company develops and nurtures Lifestyle Brands with carefully thought-out ingredients, packaging, fragrance and design. Sentient Brands’ leadership team has extensive experience in building world-class brands such as Hugo Boss, Victoria’s Secret, Versace, and Bath & Body Works. The Company is focused on two key market segments targeting: wellness and responsible luxury, which the Company believes represent unique opportunities for its Oeuvre product line. Sentient Brands intends to leverage its in-house innovation capabilities to launch new products that “disrupt” adjacent product categories. We plan to grow by leveraging our deep connections within our existing network and attract consumers through increased brand awareness and investing in unique social media marketing. The Company’s goal is to create customer experiences that have sustainable resonance with consumers and consistently implement strategies that result in long-term profit growth for our investors.

 

Principal Products and Services

 

The Company currently has one main product line and two other product lines in development. The Company’s current active product line is Oeuvre.

 

Oeuvre

 

Oeuvre - ”A Body of Art” – is the next product line that we plan to launch in the fourth quarter of 2021 and is intended to be a next generation CBD luxury skin care line and lifestyle brand. Planned product offerings under the Oeuvre product line include:

 

	●	Purifying Exfoliator
	●	Replenishing Oil
	●	Ultra-Nourishing Face Cream
	●	Revitalizing Eye Cream
	●	High Potency Tincture
	●	CBD infused and scented candles
	●	CBD infused women’s fragrance

 

10

 

Drawing inspiration from petals, leaves, roots, minerals, and gemstones, Oeuvre celebrates the artistry of well-being and beauty, inside and out. Oeuvre products are non-toxic, ungendered products made with zero GMO, retinyl palmitate, petroleum, mineral oil, parabens, sulfates, and synthetic colors.

 

Oeuvre Target Market

 

Oeuvre is planned to be our luxury segment product line. With Oeuvre, we are targeting a large and influential consumer class of individuals that are “HENRYs” – High-Earners-Not-Rich-Yet. These individuals have discretionary income and may be wealthy in the future. HENRYs earn between $100,000 and $250,000 annually. They are typically digitally fluent, are frequent online shoppers, and are discretionary spenders. Our website, ouvreskincare.com, offers inclusive, aspirationally affordable luxury products positioned for such consumers.

 

We believe the benefit of onboarding this consumer demographic to Oeuvre are twofold: securing valuable present customers and building relationships and business with those most likely to be among affluent consumers in the future. By the year 2025, Millennials and Generation Z reportedly will represent more than 40% of the overall luxury goods market, according to a 2019 report published by Boston Consulting Group. We seek to target such consumer group for the sale of our Oeuvre products.

 

On social media, we will target the following audiences for the Oeuvre brand:

 

	●	Women aged 30+
	●	Luxury Skincare Enthusiasts
	●	CBD Enthusiasts
	●	Crystal Lovers
	●	Wellness Audience
	●	Makeup Artists
	●	Art
	●	Beauty
	●	Influencers
	●	Bloggers
	●	Stores

  

Future Product Lines

 

The Company has two product lines planned for introduction by the end of 2021:

 

	●	F.A.M.E. - a millennial, premium priced dual-gender lifestyle brand
	●	LevelLab – a premium priced millennial fitness/wellness/performance product line

 

 LevelLab

 

 We intend LevelLab to be a premium-priced millennial fitness, wellness, and performance product line. Planned LevelLab products include:

 

	●	LevelLab Therapeutic Recovery Cream, which provides heating and cooling effects to sooth pain, containing isolate hemp CBD, and 100% THC free.
	●	LevelLab Bundle including daily facial cleanser, hyaluronic and vitamin C moisturizer, and retinol night cream.
	●	LevelLab Active Hydration – supplement for mineral replenishment and optimal hydration for before, during, and after workout.
	●	LevelLab Fuel – a recovery drink containing a unique combination of CBD and amino acids.

 

11

LevelLab Target Market

 

We plan to target Millennials (generally ages 23 – 38 as of 2019) for our LevelLab product line. These consumers, who became adults in a hyper-connected, digital world, have unique shopping preferences, spend their time in different mediums, and respond to a different technology-driven style of messaging than generations past. This evolution in consumer behavior accompanies a significant transition of purchasing power to the Millennial generation. According to the 2015 U.S. Census Bureau, Millennials accounted for more than 25% of the U.S. population, exceeding the number of baby boomers and making it the largest percentage of the workforce in the United States. Further, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, people born after 1981, including Millennials and Generation Z, accounted for approximately $1.7 trillion or 22% of the nation’s total consumer expenditure in 2017. We expect this number to significantly increase as Millennials enter their peak earning years and an increasing percentage of Generation Z joins the workforce.

 

F.A.M.E

 

F.A.M.E. will merge health and wellness with art and entertainment to curate unique and impactful products, content, and activities for a global community. As stated in a 2017 article on the Wellness industry published by Forbes, 72% of millennials would rather spend money on experiences than on material goods. With F.A.M.E., we intend to provide them with both. Products and offerings under the F.A.M.E. brand name are currently under development.

 

F.A.M.E Target Market

 

The target market for F.A.M.E. is also Millennials. We intend to market F.A.M.E. to premium consumers – both male and female – in the Millennial market.

 

Suppliers

 

The Company has several third-party suppliers and is not reliant on any particular supplier for its product offerings. Many of our products contain CBD derived from industrial hemp or cannabis which we obtain from third parties. Hemp cultivation can be impacted by weather patterns and other natural events, but we have not yet faced any supply issues in obtaining raw materials for our products. 

 

Distribution

 

We have two primary methods through which we sell our products:

 

	1.	Direct to Consumer online e-commerce platform
	2.	Wholesale partners

 

Marketing Strategy

 

We support brand launches with social media and marketing campaigns, including utilizing influencers. Leading marketing and public relations firms are engaged by the Company to spearhead the launch of Oeuvre, and will likely be engaged for our future planned brand launches as well.

Our mission is to create the next generation of CBD consumer brands. The Company believes it has assembled a highly accomplished team of branding and marketing professionals who have a combined experience and track record of successfully launching and operating major brands in the consumer market space, which the Company believes will provide it with a competitive edge in the industry.

  

Customers

 

The Company launched its Oeuvre product line in the fourth quarter of 2021. The Company’s sales channels are direct to consumer and wholesale.

  

Intellectual Property

 

The Company’s Oeuvre brand is trademarked in the United States, with a European trademark application pending. The Company expects to rely on trade secrets and proprietary know-how protection for our confidential and proprietary information, however we have not yet taken security measures to protect this information.

 

Competition

 

We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, intense competition from a number of companies.

 

The current market for hemp-derived CBD products is highly competitive, consisting of publicly-trade and privately-owned companies, many of which are more adequately capitalized than the Company. The Company’s current publicly listed competitors include Charlotte’s Web, CV Sciences, Elixinol, Abacus, and Green Growth Brands, and private companies such as BeBoe, St. Jane, Mary’s, Lord Jones, Bluebird Folium Biosciences, Global Cannabinoids, and Pure Kana. In addition, public and private U.S. and Canadian companies have entered the hemp-derived CBD consumer market or have announced plans to do so. This market is highly fragmented, and according to the Hemp Business Journal, the vast majority of industry participants generate less than $2 million in annual revenue. We see this an opportunity to create a foothold in the CBD consumer marketplace with the goal of building Sentient Brands as a major brand name in this space.

  

Industry Overview

 

The market for products based on extracts of hemp and cannabis is expected to grow substantially over the coming years. Arcview Market Research and BDS Analytics are forecasting the combined market to reach nearly $45 billion within the U.S. in the year 2024. While much of this market is expected to be comprised of high potency THC-based products that will be sold in licensed dispensaries, certain research firms are still predicting the market to grow to $5.3 billion, $12.6 billion, and $2.2 billion by 2024 for the product areas of low THC cannabinoids, THC-free Cannabinoids and pharmaceutical cannabinoids, respectively.

 

We believe the recent passage of the 2018 Farm Bill will allow the Company to expand its marketplace opportunities. On December 20, 2018, President Donald J. Trump signed into law the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018, otherwise known as the “Farm Bill.” Prior to its passage, hemp, a member of the cannabis family, and hemp-derived CBD, were classified as a Schedule I controlled substances, and illegal under the Controlled Substances Act (“CSA”). Under Section 10113 of the Farm Bill, hemp cannot contain more than 0.3 percent THC. THC refers to the chemical compound found in cannabis that produces the psychoactive “high” associated with cannabis. Any cannabis plant that contains more than 0.3 percent THC would be considered non-hemp cannabis or marijuana under federal law and would thus face no legal protection under this new legislation and would be an illegal Schedule 1 drug under the CSA.

 

With the passage of the Farm Bill, hemp cultivation is broadly permitted. The Farm Bill explicitly allows the transfer of hemp-derived products across state lines for commercial or other purposes. It also puts no restrictions on the sale, transport, or possession of hemp-derived products, so long as those items are produced in a manner consistent with the law.

Recent Developments

 

Covid-19

 

A novel strain of coronavirus (“Covid-19”) emerged globally in December 2019 and has been declared a pandemic. The extent to which Covid-19 will impact our customers, business, results and financial condition will depend on current and future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time. While the Company’s day-to-day operations beginning March 2020 have been impacted, we have suffered less immediate impact as most staff can work remotely and can continue to develop our product offerings.

 

On April 18, 2020, the Company, through its subsidiary Jaguaring Company, entered into Paycheck Protection Program Promissory Note and Agreement with KeyBank National Association, pursuant to which the Company received loan proceeds of $231,500 (the “PPP Loan”). The PPP Loan was made under, and is subject to the terms and conditions of, the PPP which was established under the CARES Act and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The term of the PPP Loan is two years with a maturity date of April 18, 2022 and contains a favorable fixed annual interest rate of 1.00%. Payments of principal and interest on the PPP Loan will be deferred for the first six months of the term of the PPP Loan until November 18, 2020. Principal and interest are payable monthly and may be prepaid by the Company at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties. Under the terms of the CARES Act, recipients can apply for and receive forgiveness for all or a portion of loans granted under the PPP. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations, based on the use of loan proceeds for certain permissible purposes as set forth in the PPP, including, but not limited to, payroll costs (as defined under the PPP) and mortgage interest, rent or utility costs (collectively, “Qualifying Expenses”), and on the maintenance of employee and compensation levels during the eight-week period following the funding of the PPP Loan. The Company has been using the proceeds of the PPP Loan, for Qualifying Expenses. However, no assurance is provided that the Company will be able to obtain forgiveness of the PPP Loan in whole or in part.

 

Forward Stock Split / Increase of Authorized / Name Change / Migratory Merger

 

On December 9, 2020, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment of Articles of Incorporation (the “Certificate”) with the State of California to (i) effect a forward stock split of its outstanding shares of common stock at a ratio of 7 for 1 (the “Forward Stock Split”), (ii) increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 50,000,000 shares to 500,000,000 shares, and (iii) effectuate a name change (the “Name Change”). Fractional shares that resulted from the Forward Stock Split will be rounded up to the next highest number. As a result of the Name Change, the Company’s name changed from “Intelligent Buying, Inc.” to “Sentient Brands Holdings Inc.”. The Certificate was approved by the majority of the Company’s shareholders and by the Board of Directors of the Company. The effective date of the Forward Stock Split and the Name Change was March 2, 2021.

 

In connection with the above, the Company filed an Issuer Company-Related Action Notification Form with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. The Forward Stock Split and the Name Change was implemented by FINRA on March 2, 2021. Our symbol on OTC Markets was INTBD for 20 business days from March 2, 2021 (the “Notification Period”). Our new CUSIP number is 81728V 102. As a result of the name change, our symbol was changed to “SNBH” following the Notification Period.

 

In addition, on January 29, 2021, the Company, merged with and into its wholly owned subsidiary, Sentient Brands Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger between Sentient Brands Holdings Inc., a California corporation, and Sentient Brands Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation. Sentient Brands Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation, continued as the surviving entity of the migratory merger. Pursuant to the migratory merger, the Company changed its state of incorporation from California to Nevada and each share of its common stock converted into one share of common stock of the surviving entity in the migratory merger. No dissenters’ rights were exercised by any of the Company’s stockholders in connection with the migratory merger.

 

14

 

Following the consummation of the migratory merger, the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Nevada corporation that was newly-created as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company became the articles of incorporation and bylaws for the surviving entity in the migratory merger.

 

The foregoing information is a summary of each of the matters described above, is not complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the exhibits, each of which is attached an exhibit to this Form 10-Q Quarterly Report. Readers should review those exhibits for a complete understanding of the terms and conditions associated with this matter.

 

Government Regulation

 

The United States Food & Drug Administration (“FDA”) is generally responsible for protecting the public health by ensuring the safety, efficacy, and security of (1) prescription and over the counter drugs; (2) biologics including vaccines, blood & blood products, and cellular and gene therapies; (3) foodstuffs including dietary supplements, bottled water, and baby formula; and, (4) medical devices including heart pacemakers, surgical implants, prosthetics, and dental devices.

 

Regarding its regulation of drugs, the FDA process requires a review that begins with the filing of an investigational new drug (IND) application, with follow on clinical studies and clinical trials that the FDA uses to determine whether a drug is safe and effective, and therefore subject to approval for human use by the FDA.

 

Aside from the FDA’s mandate to regulate drugs, the FDA also regulates dietary supplement products and dietary ingredients under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994. This law prohibits manufacturers and distributors of dietary supplements and dietary ingredients from marketing products that are adulterated or misbranded. This means that these firms are responsible for evaluating the safety and labeling of their products before marketing to ensure that they meet all the requirements of the law and FDA regulations, including, but not limited to the following labeling requirements: (1) identifying the supplement; (2) nutrition labeling; (3) ingredient labeling; (4) claims; and, (5) daily use information.

 

The FDA has not approved cannabis, marijuana, hemp or derivatives as a safe and effective drug for any indication. As of the date of this filing, we have not, and do not intend to file an IND with the FDA, concerning any of our products that contain CBD derived from industrial hemp or cannabis. Further, our products containing CBD derived from industrial hemp are not marketed or sold using claims that their use is safe and effective treatment for any medical condition subject to the FDA’s jurisdiction.

 

Government Approvals

 

The Company does not currently require any government approvals for its operations or product offerings. In August 2019, the DEA affirmed that CBD preparations at or below the 0.3 percent delta-9 THC threshold, is not a controlled substance, and a DEA registration is not required. As a result of the 2018 Farm Bill, the FDA has been tasked with developing CBD regulations. The FDA has not yet published regulations.

 

Research and Development

 

We are continuously in the process of identifying and/or developing potential new products to offer to our customers. Our expenditures on research and development have historically been small and immaterial compared to our other business expenditures. We are currently developing new formulations for additional product lines.

 

15

 

Employees

 

We believe that our success depends upon our ability to attract, develop and retain key personnel. As of April 15, 2021, we employed 2 full-time employees. The Company otherwise currently relies on the services of independent contractors. None of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements, and management considers relations with our employees to be in good standing. Although we continually seek to add additional talent to our work force, management believes that it currently has sufficient human capital to operate its business successfully.

 

Our compensation programs are designed to align the compensation of our employees with our performance and to provide the proper incentives to attract, retain and motivate employees to achieve superior results. The structure of our compensation programs balances incentive earnings for both short-term and long-term performance.

 

The health and safety of our employees is our highest priority, and this is consistent with our operating philosophy. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, employees, including our specialized technical staff, are working from home or in a virtual environment unless they have a requirement to be in the office for short-term tasks and projects.

 

The primary mailing address for the Company is 555 Madison Avenue, 5th Floor, New York, New York 10022. The Company’s telephone number is [phone]. The Company’s website is https://www.sentientbrands.com/.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Nine Months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020

 

Revenue

 

We acquired Cannavolve on February 14, 2020, where we consolidated our financial statements since then. The Company provides advisory and operational services to hemp and ancillary cannabis companies, serving as a full-service business accelerator working with startups and emerging brands nationwide. The Company accelerates customer’s businesses through a proven model of funding; operations; product launches; and ongoing sales, marketing, and expansion into new markets. Each customer arrangement is unique, and revenue is recognized, both over time and at a point in time, depending upon the performance obligations stated in the contract. During the nine months ending September 30, 2021, we did not generate revenue compared to $19,219 for the nine month period ending September 30, 2020, due to the Company’s reorganization and focus on the development of our new product lines and related marketing preparations.

 

Operating Expenses

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, and 2020, operating expenses consisted of the following:

 

		2021				2020
Advertising and Marketing			12,800				32,162
Selling Expenses			—				22,020
General and Administrative			35,748				134,544
Legal and Professional			250,376				289,711
Office rent			824				16,351
Management Fees			63,000				100,140
Product development cost			3,153				26,200
Interest Expenses			38,841
TOTAL OPERATING EXPENSES			404,742				621,128

 

16

 

	●	Our advertising and marketing costs mainly include consulting fees for branding, social media and creation of marketing materials for our brand. The decrease in advertising costs of $19,362, or by 60%, during the nine months period ending September 30, 2021 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was attributable to consulting fees for branding and marketing materials incurred for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
	●	Selling expense mainly includes our marketing and sales representative fees and related benefits, and travel and entertainment costs incurred by our sales representatives.
	●	Legal and professional fees primarily consisted of accounting fees, legal service fees, consulting fees, investor relations service charges and other fees incurred for service related to becoming and being a public company. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, professional fees decreased compared to the same period in 2020 mainly attributable to a decrease in fees of approximately $15,000 incurred for services performed by our marketing consultant. We expect professional fees to increase as we incur significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements, and costs associated with newly applicable corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
	●	Office rent expense is monthly lease payments for our principal executive offices in New York, New York .
	●	Our management fees are comprised mainly of salaries paid to our management staff. During the nine month period ending September 30, 2021, management fees decreased by approximately $40,000 compared to the same period in 2020 mainly attributable to the resignation of an employee.
	●	Product development cost includes packaging supplies and materials, design and marketing consultants. The decrease of approximately $23,047, or 88%, during the nine month period ending September 30, 2021 was mainly due to the cost of design of marketing materials incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

 

Loss from Operations

 

The Company’s operating loss for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2021, and 2020 was $404,640 and $675,974, respectively. A decrease in operating loss of approximately $206,778 or 34% compared to the previous nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily decreased in general and administrative expenses of $98,796, legal and professional fees of $39,335, and management fees of $37,140. The primary reason for the overall reduction in operating expenses was primarily due the efforts of management to streamline operations and focus on the development of new product lines.

 

Income Taxes

 

We did not have any income taxes expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, and 2020 since we incurred losses in these periods.

 

Net Loss

 

The Company’s net loss for the nine month period ended September 30, 2021, and 2020 was $404,469 and $611,418, respectively.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2021, we had total current assets of $291,633, consisting of $32,852 in cash and $258,781 in inventories. Our total current liabilities as of September 30, 2021, were $1,296,790. We had a working capital deficit of $1,005,157 as of September 30, 2021, compared with a working capital deficit of $605,552 as of December 31, 2020.

 

17

 

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

 

Operating activities used $472,898 in cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared with cash used of $675,974 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Our negative operating cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was largely the result of our net loss of $880,779, full payment of inventories $258,781 and offset by decrease in advances from supplier $154,893 and loss on valuation of derivative liabilities $476,310. Our negative operating cash flow of $675,974 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, was largely the result of the result out net loss of $552,840, changes in current assets and liabilities $126,899.

 

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

 

There were no cash flow from investment activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, while in the same period ending September 30, 2020, we purchased office equipment for $39,277.

 

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

 

 Net cash flows provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2021, amounted to $437,492 compared with cash flows provided by financing activities of $708,061 for the previous period ended September 30, 2020. Our positive cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, consisted of proceeds from convertible loans payable of $306,199 and short-term loans $130,404. Our positive cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, consisted of proceeds from issuance of common stock of $471,560, short term loan $256,5000 offset by $20,000 payments to loans payable.

 

Going Concern

 

As of September 30, 2021, we have an accumulated deficit of $2,358,357. Our ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon the successful completion of additional financing arrangements and our ability to achieve and maintain profitable operations. While we are expanding our best efforts to achieve the above plans, there is no assurance that any such activity will generate funds that will be available for operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might arise from this uncertainty.

 

Covid 19

 

A novel strain of coronavirus (“Covid-19”) emerged globally in December 2019 and has been declared a pandemic. The extent to which Covid-19 will impact our customers, business, results and financial condition will depend on current and future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time. While the Company’s day-to-day operations beginning March 2020 have been impacted, we have suffered less immediate impact as most staff can work remotely and can continue to develop our product offerings. That said we have seen our business opportunities develop more slowly as business partners and potential customers are dealing with Covid-19 issues, working remotely and these issues are causing delays in decision making and finalization of negotiations and agreements.

 

Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

Contractual Obligations

 

We presently do not have any contractual obligations.

 

18

 

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We presently do not have off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Inflation

 

The effect of inflation on our revenue and operating results was not significant.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

As a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We conducted an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, as of September 30, 2021, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, including to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of September 30, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses identified and described below.

 

Our principal executive officers do not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. Although our disclosure controls and procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and our principal executive officers have determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at doing so, a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented if there exists in an individual a desire to do so. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

 

Remediation Plan to Address the Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management identified the following three material weaknesses that have caused management to conclude that, as of September 30, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures, and our internal control over financial reporting, were not effective at the reasonable assurance level:

 

19

 

1.	We do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act as of the period ending September 30, 2021. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.
2.	We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.
3.	Effective controls over the control environment were not maintained. Specifically, a formally adopted written code of business conduct and ethics that governs our employees, officers, and directors was not in place. Additionally, management has not developed and effectively communicated to employees its accounting policies and procedures. This has resulted in inconsistent practices. Further, our Board of Directors does not currently have any independent members and no director qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K. Since these entity level programs have a pervasive effect across the organization, management has determined that these circumstances constitute a material weakness.

 

To address these material weaknesses, management performed additional analyses and other procedures to ensure that the financial statements included herein fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Accordingly, we believe that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

To remediate the material weakness in our documentation, evaluation and testing of internal controls we plan to engage a third-party firm to assist us in remedying this material weakness once resources become available.

 

We intend to remedy our material weakness with regard to insufficient segregation of duties by hiring additional employees in order to segregate duties in a manner that establishes effective internal controls once resources become available.

 

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes (including corrective actions with regard to material weakness) in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

From time to time, we are subject to ordinary routine litigation incidental to our normal business operations. We are not currently a party to any litigation the outcome of which, if determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flows or financial condition.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

Risk factors describing the major risks to our business can be found under Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. There has been no material change in our risk factors from those previously discussed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

 

On September 23, 2021 (the “Issuance Date”), the Company issued an 18% Promissory Note in the principal amount of $125,000 (the “September 2021 Note”) to an accredited investor (the “September 2021 Investor”). The September 2021 Note matures six (6) months from the Issuance Date (the “Maturity Date”), and the September 2021 Investor, at its sole election on the Maturity Date, may convert the interest accrued on the September 2021 Note into shares of common stock of the Company at $0.05 per share.

 

The Company claims an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) for the private placement of the September 2021 Note pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. The September 2021 Investor is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. As of the date hereof, the Company is obligated on $125,000 in face amount of the September 2021 Note issued to the September 2021 Investor. The September 2021 Note is a debt obligation arising other than in the ordinary course of business which constitutes a direct financial obligation of the Company.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

 

On December 9, 2020, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment of Articles of Incorporation (the “Certificate”) with the State of California to (i) effect a forward stock split of its outstanding shares of common stock at a ratio of 7 for 1 (the “Forward Stock Split”), (ii) increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 50,000,000 shares to 500,000,000 shares, and (iii) effectuate a name change (the “Name Change”). Fractional shares that resulted from the Forward Stock Split will be rounded up to the next highest number.
