SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
In addition to historical information, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are those that predict or describe future events or trends and that do not relate solely to historical matters. You can generally identify forward-looking statements as statements containing the words "believe," "expect," "will," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "project," "plan," "assume" or other similar expressions, or negatives of those expressions, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. All statements contained or incorporated by reference in this quarterly report regarding our future strategy, future operations, projected financial position, estimated future revenues, projected costs, future prospects, the future of our industry and results that might be obtained by pursuing management's current plans and objectives are forward-looking statements.
You should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements because the matters they describe are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other unpredictable factors, many of which are beyond our control. Our forward-looking statements are based on the information currently available to us and speak only as of the date on the cover of this quarterly report, or, in the case of forward-looking statements in documents incorporated by reference, as of the date of the date of the filing of the document that includes the statement. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for us to predict these matters or how they may affect us. Over time, our actual results, performance or achievements will likely differ from the anticipated results, performance or achievements that are expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements, and such difference might be significant and materially adverse to our security holders. We do not undertake and specifically decline any obligation to update any forward-looking statements or to publicly announce the results of any revisions to any statements to reflect new information or future events or developments.
We have identified some of the important factors that could cause future events to differ from our current expectations and they are described in this quarterly report under the caption "Risk Factors," below, and elsewhere in this quarterly report which you should review carefully. Please consider our forward-looking statements in light of those risks as you read this quarterly report.

1. Nature of Business
We are a distributor of paper products that are derived from non-wood sources. Our third party contract manufacturer uses agricultural residuals, namely bagasse (derived from sugar cane) and bamboo, as opposed to wood products, significantly reducing the manufacturing carbon footprint, energy consumption, and attendant water pollution during the manufacture of its products. This allows us to offer our unique, exclusive, tree-free paper products at price-parity equal to or less than current recycled fiber products already on the market. We offer an ideal solution for those consumers (both corporate and individual) seeking to meet their sustainability mandates or personal environmentally conscious goals.
On July 16, 2014 the Company entered into an agreement to acquire City of Industry, California based SWC Group, Inc., a California Corporation, which does business as CarryOutSupplies.com.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. It is management's opinion however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair financial statement presentation. The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Sugarmade, Inc. and Subsidiary
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2013 (Unaudited) and June 30, 2013
These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2013, which contains our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, together with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation, for the period ended June 30, 2013. The interim results for the period ended September 30, 2013, are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year.
Principles of consolidation
The condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements include the accounts of our Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Sugarmade-CA. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Going concern
The Company sustained continued operating losses during the three months ended September 30, 2013 and for the year ended June 30, 2013. The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, in which it has not been successful, and/or obtaining additional financing from its shareholders or other sources, as may be required.
Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. Such assumption contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Management is endeavoring to increase revenue-generating operations. While priority is on generating cash from operations through the sale of the Company’s products, management is also seeking to raise additional working capital through various financing sources, including the sale of the Company’s equity and/or debt securities, which may not be available on commercially reasonable terms to our Company, or which may not be available at all. If such financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue our business as desired and our operating results will be adversely affected. In addition, any financing arrangement may have potentially adverse effects on us and/or our stockholders. Debt financing (if available and undertaken) will increase expenses, must be repaid regardless of operating results and may involve restrictions limiting our operating flexibility. If we issue equity securities to raise additional funds, the percentage ownership of our existing stockholders will be reduced and the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the current holders of our common stock.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires our 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

September 30, 2013 (Unaudited) and June 30, 2013
Revenue recognition
We recognize revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) No. 605, Revenue Recognition. Revenue is recognized when we have evidence of an arrangement, a determinable fee, and when collection is considered to be probable and products are delivered. This generally occurs upon shipment of the merchandise, which is when legal transfer of title occurs. In the event that final acceptance of our product by the customer is uncertain, revenue is deferred until all acceptance criteria have been met. We currently have a consignment arrangement with two of our customers. We record revenue on consignment goods when the consigned goods are sold by the consignee and all other above mentioned revenue recognition criteria have been satisfied. Cash deposits received in connection with the sales of our products prior to their being delivered or acceptance if applicable is recorded as deferred revenue.
During the year ended June 30, 2012, we became aware of quality issues surrounding our copy paper products. We were able to trace the reported problems with paper quality back to manufacturing issues with our third party contract manufacturer. Our Company has since implemented additional quality assurance procedures both during and at the completion of the production processes. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company had limited sales as we continued producing and delivering replacement product, in addition to disposing of the product containing the quality issues. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, we sold the remaining sub-quality paper to a third party wholesaler specializing in the liquidation of excess inventory. This sale represented approximately 18% of our revenue for the quarter. As we had recorded an inventory reserve for this product, we recognized revenue with no corresponding cost of goods sold.
Cash
Cash and cash equivalents consist of amounts held as bank deposits and highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less.
From time to time, we may maintain bank balances in interest bearing accounts in excess of the $250,000 currently insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation for interest bearing accounts (there is currently no insurance limit for deposits in noninterest bearing accounts). We have not experienced any losses with respect to cash. Management believes our Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk with respect to its cash.
Accounts receivable
Accounts receivable are carried at their estimated collectible amounts, net of any estimated allowances for doubtful accounts. We grant unsecured credit to our customer’s deemed credit worthy. Ongoing credit evaluations are performed and potential credit losses estimated by management are charged to operations on a regular basis. At the time any particular account receivable is deemed uncollectible, the balance is charged to the allowance for doubtful accounts. Since we cannot necessarily predict future changes in the financial stability of our customers, we cannot guarantee that our allowance for doubtful accounts will be adequate.

Inventory
Inventory consists of finished goods paper and paper-based products ready for sale and is stated at the lower of cost or market. We value our inventory using the weighted average costing method. Our Company's policy is to include as a part of inventory any freight incurred to ship the product from our contract manufactures to our warehouses. Outbound freights costs related to shipping costs to our customers are considered period costs and reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses. We regularly review inventory and consider forecasts of future demand, market conditions and product obsolescence.
If the estimated realizable value of our inventory is less than cost, we make provisions in order to reduce its carrying value to its estimated market value. In the end of 2012, the Company became aware of quality issues surrounding its copy paper products. As a result of these quality issues, we determined that the historical inventory values were not realizable and we recorded a reserve for inventory obsolescence. We completed our review of impacted inventory during the second quarter of fiscal 2013, and recorded additional reserves at that time. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, we continued to dispose of reserved inventory either through sales to a third party liquidator or where it was impractical to sell the inventory; we donated the product to third party charitable organizations. As of September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013, the balance for the inventory totaled $85,872 and $159,255, respectively.
Equipment
The Company owned equipment valued at $2,809 of September 30, 2013 and $3,299 as of June 30, 2013.
Income taxes
We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their perspective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are recorded, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.
As a result of the implementation of certain provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which clarifies the accounting and disclosure for uncertainty in tax position, as defined, ASC 740 seeks to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspect of the recognition and measurement related to accounting for income taxes. We adopted the provisions of ASC 740 as of October 2, 2008, and have analyzed filing positions in each of the federal and state jurisdictions where we are required to file income tax returns, as well as open tax years in these jurisdictions. We have identified the U.S. federal and California as our “major” tax jurisdictions and generally, we remain subject to Internal Revenue Service examination of our 2013 U.S. federal income tax returns. However, we have certain tax attribute carryforwards which will remain subject to review and adjustment by the relevant tax authorities until the statute of limitations closes with respect to the year in which such attributes are utilized.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2013 (Unaudited) and June 30, 2013
We believe that our income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and do not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to our financial position. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant to ASC 740. In addition, we did not record a cumulative effect adjustment related to the adoption of ASC 740. Our policy for recording interest and penalties associated with income-based tax audits is to record such items as a component of income taxes. We have no interest or penalties as of September 30, 2013.
Stock based compensation
Stock based compensation cost is measured at the date of grant, based on the calculated fair value of the stock-based award, and will be recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the award). We estimate the fair value of employee stock options granted using the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing Model. Key assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options will include the exercise price of the award, the fair value of our common stock on the date of grant, the expected option term, the risk free interest rate at the date of grant, the expected volatility and the expected annual dividend yield on our common stock. We use comparable public company data among other information to estimate the expected price volatility and the expected forfeiture rate. Non-employee stock grant costs are measured and recognized upon completion of performance and tied to the contractual obligations of the parties we transact with.
Loss per share
We calculate basic loss per share (“EPS”) by dividing our net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period, without considering common stock equivalents. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and the weighted average number of dilutive common stock equivalents, such as options and warrants. Options and warrants are only included in the calculation of diluted EPS when their effect is dilutive.
Fair value of financial instruments
ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1 - observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 - include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.
Level 3 - unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.
Derivative instruments
The fair value of derivative instruments is recorded and shown separately under current liabilities. Changes in the fair value of derivatives liability are recorded in the consolidated statement of operations under non-operating income (expense).

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
September 30, 2013 (Unaudited) and June 30, 2013
Our Company evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a weighted average Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date. Refer to note 9 for details.
Recent Developed Accounting Pronouncements
Effective January 2013, we adopted FASB ASU No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (ASU 2011-11). The amendments in ASU 2011-11 require the disclosure of information on offsetting and related arrangements for financial and derivative instruments to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. Amendments under ASU 2011-11 will be applied retrospectively for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after January 1, 2013. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Effective January 2013, we adopted FASB ASU No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive (ASU 2013-02). This guidance is the culmination of the FASB’s deliberation on reporting reclassification adjustments from accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). The amendments in ASU 2013-02 do not change the current requirements for reporting net income or other comprehensive income. However, the amendments require disclosure of amounts reclassified out of AOCI in its entirety, by component, on the face of the statement of operations or in the notes thereto. Amounts that are not required to be reclassified in their entirety to net income must be cross-referenced to other disclosures that provide additional detail. This standard is effective prospectively for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In April 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-07, Presentation of Financial Statements (Top 205): Liquidation Basis of Accounting. The objective of ASU No. 2013-07 is to clarify when an entity should apply the liquidation basis of accounting and to provide principles for the measurement of assets and liabilities under the liquidation basis of accounting, as well as any required disclosures. The amendments in this standard is effective prospectively for entities that determine liquidation is imminent during annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013, and interim reporting periods therein. We are evaluating the effect, if any, adoption of ASU No. 2013-07 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. The amendments is ASU 2014-15 are intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organization’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide elated footnote disclosures. The amendments in this standard are effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We are evaluating the effect, if any; adoption of ASU No. 2014-15 will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-16, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Determining Whether the Host Contract in a Hybrid Financial Instrument Issued in the Form of a Share Is More Akin to Debt or to Equity. The amendments in ASU 2014-16 clarifies how current U.S. GAAP should be interpreted in evaluating the economic characteristics and risks of a host contract in a hybrid financial instrument that is issued in the form of a share. The amendments clarify that an entity should consider all relevant terms and features, including the embedded derivative feature being evaluated for bifurcation, in evaluating the nature of the host contract. The amendments in this standard are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. We are evaluating the effect, if any; adoption of ASU No. 2014-16 will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In November 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-17, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Pushdown Accounting. The amendments in ASU 2014-17 provide an acquired entity with an option to apply pushdown accounting in its separate financial statements upon occurrence of an event in which an acquirer obtains control of the acquired entity. The amendment in this standard is effective on November 18, 2014. After the effective date, an acquired entity can make an election to apply the guidance to future change-in-control events or to its most recent change-in-control event. We are evaluating the effect, if any; adoption of ASU No. 2014-17 will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis. The amendments in ASY 2015-02 are intended to improve targeted areas of consolidation guidance for legal entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability corporations, and securitization structures. The amendment in this standard is effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. We are evaluating the effect, if any, adoption of ASU No. 2015-02 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

The convertible promissory notes must be repaid by our Company within six months from the date of issuance; accrue interest at the rate of 14%; and are subject to conversion at the election of the investors at such time as our Company has raised a minimum of $500,000 in a subsequent equity financing. The conversion price will be the lower of 80% of the per share purchase price paid for by the new investors in the subsequent financing, or $0.50 per share. Unless these promissory notes are converted or repaid earlier, our Company must pay the note-holders the amount of the then accrued interest on the three, six, and nine month anniversaries of the issue date. As of June 30, 2013, the Company extended the maturity date of the notes to one year from the date of issuance.
In connection with the issuance of the promissory notes, the investors in the aggregate received two-year warrants to purchase up to a total of 78,750 shares of common stock at $0.50 per share, and two-year warrants purchasing up to a total of 131,250 shares of common stock at $0.01 per share.

7. Note Payable to bank
During October 2011, we entered into a revolving demand note (line of credit) arrangement with HSBC Bank USA, with a revolving borrowing limit of $150,000. The line of credit bears a variable interest rate of one quarter percent (0.25%) above the prime rate (3.25% as of September 30, 2013). This borrowing facility is renewed annually and our Company is required to maintain a separate demand deposit account with HSBC with a minimum balance equal to the outstanding borrowing. In the event the deposit account is not established or minimum balance maintained, HSBC can charge a higher rate of interest of up to 4.0% above prime rate.

10. Related Party Transactions
During the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2013, we advanced a series of small loans to DPG to act as advances to the DPG for assistance in their sales efforts for us. The total of these advances amounted to $10,500 and remained outstanding as of September 30, 2013.
On June 14, 2013, our Company sold one container of paper to DPG, a company in which our past Chairman of the Board, Pinto has an ownership interest. DPG acted as broker in a transaction to resell the paper to one of its customers. The total value of the product sold totaled $28,000. This amount remained outstanding as of June 30, 2013 and was fully reserved as this date as we had not received the funds as of the date of this filing.
On April 22, 2013, our Company issued a promissory note in the amount of $100,000 to Tat Auyeung, for long term financing. The note has a term of 2 years and bears interest at a rate of 14% per annum, with 5% payable in cash and the remaining 9% per annum payable in stock at the conversion rate of $0.7 per share. On September 20, 2013, an agreement was made in which the principal balance of $100,000 and interest in the amount of $5,753.43 will both be settled by the issuance of shares.
On February 22, 2013, our Company issued two promissory notes each in the amount of $25,000 to Sandy Salzberg, one of our past Directors, and Joseph Abrams for short term financing. The note has a term of 30 days and bears interest at a rate of 25% per annum. As of September 30, 2013, the notes remained outstanding and had accrued interest totaling $7,569.
11. Stock Based Compensation
Stock options
As of September 30, 2013, we had a total of 1,245,962 incentive and nonqualified stock options granted and outstanding under the Plan. All of our outstanding options have terms of between five and ten years. During the year ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we recognized share based compensation expense totaling $0 and $149,692, respectively, related to stock options granted through that date.
For purposes of accounting for stock based compensation, the fair value of each option and warrant award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing formula. The following weighted average assumptions were used for the calculations of the options.
| Expected Term | 4.96 years | |
| Weighted average volatility | 121.93% | |
| Forfeiture rate | 20.00% | |
| Risk-free interest rate | 2.02% | |
| Expected dividend rate | 0 |

September 30, 2013 (Unaudited) and June 30, 2013
The weighted average expected option and warrant term for director and employee stock options granted reflects the application of the simplified method set out in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110. The simplified method defines the life as the average of the contractual term of the options and the weighted average vesting period for all options. We utilized this approach as our historical share option exercise experience does not provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate an expected term. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of our stock as well as those of a peer group. We estimated the forfeiture rate based on our expectation for future forfeitures and we currently expect substantially all options and warrants to vest. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield in effect at or near the time of grant. We have never declared or paid dividends and have no plans to do so in the foreseeable future.
The following is required disclosure in connection with stock options and warrants (which resulted in share based compensation charges) as of September 30, 2013: 1) weighted average exercise price - $0.81; 2) weighted average remaining contractual term vested and outstanding options 74 months, respectively; 3) aggregate intrinsic value of outstanding and exercisable options and warrants - $0.00 and $0.00, respectively; 4) weighted average grant date fair value of options and warrants granted - $1.14 per share; and 5) weighted average fair value of options and warrants vested - $1.48 per share.
The exercise prices for options and warrants granted and outstanding which resulted in stock based compensation charges was as follows:
| Exercise Price Range | Number of options or warrants | |
| $0.25 - $0.50 | 100,000 | |
| $0.51 – $0.75 | 1,297,000 | |
| $0.76 - $1.00 | - | |
| $1.01 - $1.25 | 624,000 | |
| $1.26 - $2.00 | 32,500 | |
| $2.01 - $3.00 | - | |
| $3.01 - $4.00 | 1,462 | |
| $4.01 above | - | |
| 2,054,962 |
A summary of the status of our non-vested options and warrants as of September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013 and changes during the year then ended is as follows:
| Non-vested outstanding, June 30, 2012 | 624,173 | |||||

| Stock based compensation: | ||||
| Stock options outstanding | 60,000 | |||

12. Income Taxes
Our NOL will begin to expire in 2024 for federal and state purposes and could be limited for use under IRC Section 382. We have recorded a valuation allowance against the entire net deferred tax asset balance due because we believe there exists a substantial doubt that we will be able to realize the benefits due to our lack of a history of earnings and due to possible limitations under IRC Section 382.
We file income tax returns in the U.S. and in the state of California with varying statutes of limitations. Our policy is to recognize interest expense and penalties related to income tax matters as a component of our provision for income taxes. There were no accrued interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as of September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013. All operations are in California and the Company believes it has no tax positions which could more-likely-than not be challenged by tax authorities. We have no unrecognized tax benefits and thus no interest or penalties included in the financial statements.
Net deferred tax assets consist of the following components as of:
| September 30, | June 30, | |||||||
| 2013 | 2013 | |||||||
| Deferred tax assets: | ||||||||
| NOL carryover | $ | 10,874,292 | $ | 10,405,408 | ||||
| Valuation allowance | (10,874,292 | ) | (10,405,408 | ) | ||||
| Net deferred tax asset | $ | — | $ | — | ||||
At September 30, 2013, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $10 million that may be offset against future taxable income through 2024. No tax benefit has been reported in the June 30, 2013 and 2012 consolidated financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.

We believe that our income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and do not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material change to our financial position. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax position have been recorded pursuant to ASC 740.
13. Commitments and Contingencies
As of September 30, 2013, our Company leased its corporate office located at 2280 Lincoln Avenue, Suite 200, San Jose CA 95125 under a lease with a term beginning on February 1, 2011 and extending through April 2014. Rent expense amounted to $46,816 for the year ended June 30, 2013. Future annual lease amounts due under our lease agreement for our fiscal year ended September 30, 2014 total: $40,000. Of the date of this filing, this obligation has been satisfied.
14. Issuance of Common Stock for Services
On September 20, 2012, our Company issued 250,000 shares to a third party consultant in consideration for its services under the terms of a consulting agreement for investor relations and public communications services. For the three months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded noncash charges totaling $85,000 in connection with this stock issuance based on previous day’s closing price for our common stock, which is deemed the fair market value as of that date.
On July 2, 2013, the Company granted 1,057,000 shares of common stock to a consultant for business restructure and investment relation services for a period of six months. The fair value of 1,057,000 shares were $401,660 on the grand date.

ITEM 2 – MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This discussion and analysis may include statements regarding our expectations with respect to our future performance, liquidity, and capital resources. Such statements, along with any other non-historical statements in the discussion, are forward-looking. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the risks and uncertainties described below in Part II, Item 1A and in our June 30, 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, amendment number 2, as well as those factors listed in other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). We do not assume an obligation to update any forward-looking statement. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by any of the forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q. See “SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS” above.
We are a distributor of paper products that are derived from non-wood sources. Our third party contract manufacturer uses agricultural residuals, namely bagasse (derived from sugar cane) and bamboo, as opposed to wood products, significantly reducing the manufacturing carbon footprint, energy consumption, and attendant water pollution during the manufacture of its products. This allows us to offer our unique, exclusive, tree-free paper products at price-parity equal to or less than current recycled fiber products already on the market. Our products are unique and we believe offer an ideal solution for those consumers (both corporate and individual) seeking to meet their sustainability mandates or personal environmentally conscious goals, at a price that is equal to or less than current recycled products.

Stateside Manufacturing and Printing
We want to go back to the roots of our initial success and cater to the industry's underserviced, independent small restaurants in the United States by offering small order custom printing and packaging for takeout supplies. These small businesses feel custom printing and branding is out of reach and have been overlooked by the major players in the industry. This untapped market is prime for the taking with over 340,000 establishments throughout the US. By bringing custom printing state side, we are able to be more nimble; reducing turnaround time and accommodating for smaller quantity orders, which is ideal for smaller businesses. At the same time, this dramatically reduces our ocean freight costs and margins on these smaller orders will be much higher than its overseas custom printing operation. We will work with these businesses and grow with them to new heights.
Advertising Supported Products
We are not just competing on prices but are innovating beyond to beat out our competitors. You cannot beat FREE and that is what we will be offering our products for to our eligible business customers. We are in an industry that services a demographic that is very attractive to any advertiser. Our products are seen and used by a demographic with high disposable income and our top product, the yogurt cups, services the most sought after demographic of all; mothers with kids ages 6-14.
We will reach out to brands that best resonate with our customers best and present them an opportunity to sponsor our products
and print their campaigns/ads on them. The revenue from the campaign will offset costs associated with their production and
sale. These savings will be passed on to our customers. There is a substantial markup on these ad support products. Our network
of eligible clients will receive free takeout products to use during the campaign period.
Online Restaurant Supply Store
We have already established relationships with over 2,500 takeout establishments, restaurants and other food service operators in the United States. We see an opportunity to not limit our services to just custom printed take-out supplies but to expand our services and offerings beyond of that. We plan to start another online website to give our customers a one stop shop to help them run their business. It will be a premier website where customers can find all items unique to their industry. The online restaurant supply store will offer over 9,000 SKU's of restaurant equipment and supplies ranging from heavy duty commercial stoves to cleaning supplies. This will continue our path to servicing the underserviced.
Investment in Food Service Industry Technology
We will invest in upgrading our technology as well as developing our own in house technology that will bring disruption to an otherwise unchanged industry. We will build mobile applications for our customers so that we can improve the existing experience and create better efficiency. This includes building apps that will allow customers to create custom printed products on their phone and track statuses of their order and allow them to re-order on their mobile phone.
Overview and Financial Condition
Discussions with respect to our Company’s operations included herein refer to our operating subsidiary, Sugarmade-CA. Our Company purchased Sugarmade-CA on May 9, 2011. As of September 30, 2013, we had no other operations other than those of Sugarmade-CA. Information with respect to our Company’s nominal operations prior to the Sugarmade Acquisition is not included herein.
Results of Operations
The following table sets forth the results of our operations for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. Certain columns may not add due to rounding.
| -29- |
| Three Months ended September 30, | |||
| 2013 | 2012 | ||
| $ | $ | ||
| Net Sales | 47,402 | 48,207 | |
| Cost of Goods Sold | 73,471 | 47,671 | |

| Other Income (Expenses) | 60,946 | (7,737) | |

Revenues
Our Company had revenues totaling $47,402 and $48,207 for the three months ending September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, respectively, which was a decrease of approximately 2% on a year over year basis.
Cost of goods sold
Our Company had cost of goods sold totaling $73,741 and $47,671 for the three months ending September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, respectively. The increase in cost of goods sold was due to increased inventory purchase price as well as increased reserve on inventory impairment.
Gross margin (loss)
Our Company had gross loss totaling ($26,069) and gross margin of $536 for the three months ending September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, respectively, due to reasons explained above.
Selling, general and administrative expenses
Our Company had selling, general and administrative expenses totaling $503,762 and $621,117 for the three months ending September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, respectively. The significant decrease was a result of curtailment of most of the Company’s operations pending organization.
Interest expense and interest income
The Company had interest expenses totaling $32,566 and $7,780 for the three months ending September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012, respectively. Interest income for the same periods totaled $50 and $133, respectively.
Net loss
Net loss totaled $468,884 and $628,318, respectively, for the three month periods end September 30, 2013 and September 2012, respectively. The significant reduction in losses was attributed to the Company ceasing partial operations in order to prepare for restructuring.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have primarily financed our operations through the sale of unregistered equity and convertible notes payable. As of September 30, 2013, our Company had cash totaling $288, current assets totaling $97,249 and total assets of $110,785. We had current and total liabilities totaling $2,652,134. The increase in negative working capital resulted from the increased debt burden the company has incurred. Stockholders’ equity reflected a deficit of $2,541,348.
| -30- |
The following is a summary of cash provided by or used in each of the indicated types of activities during the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012:
| 2013 | 2012 | |||||||
| Cash (used in) provided by: | ||||||||
| Operating activities | (85,075 | ) | (245,584 | ) | ||||
| Investing activities | — | — | ||||||
| Financing activities | (74,018 | ) | 242,181 |
Net cash used by operating activities was $85,075 for the three months ending September 30, 2013, a decrease of $160,509 from the comparable figure of $245,584 for the three months ending September 30, 2012. The decrease of net cash flows used in operating activities resulted mainly from the curtailment of certain operations we the Company prepared for restructuring.
Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $(74,018) for the three-month period ended September 30, 2013. Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $242,181 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2012.
Our capital requirements going forward will consist of financing our operations until we are able to reach a level of revenues and gross margins adequate to equal or exceed our ongoing operating expenses. Other than the notes payable discussed above, borrowings from our bank and the production credit facility with our suppliers, we do not have any credit agreement or source of liquidity immediately available to us.
Given estimates of our Company’s future operating results and our credit arrangements with our suppliers, we are currently forecasting that we will need to secure additional financing to obtain adequate financial resources to reach profitability. As of the date of this report, we estimate that the cash necessary to implement our current business plan for the next twelve months is approximately $2,000,000. We also cannot provide any assurances that we will be able to receive additional funds under our production line of credit.
Based on our need to raise additional funds to implement our business plans for the next twelve months, we have included a discussion concerning the presentation of our financial statements on a going concern basis in the notes to our financial statements and our independent public accountants have included a similar discussion in their opinion on our financial statements through June 30, 2013. We will be required in the near future to issue debt or sell our Company’s equity securities in order to raise additional cash, although there are no firm arrangements in place for any such financing at this time. We cannot provide any assurances as to whether we will be able to secure the necessary financing, or the terms of any such financing transaction if one were to occur. The failure to secure such financing could severely curtail our plans for future growth or in more severe scenarios, the continued operations of our Company.

Capital Expenditures
Our current plans do not call for our Company to expend significant amounts for capital expenditures for the foreseeable future beyond relatively insignificant expenditures for office furniture and information technology related equipment as we add employees to our Company. We are however continually evaluating the production processes of our third party contract manufacturers to determine if there are investments we could make in their processes to achieve manufacturing improvements and significant cost savings. Any such desired investments would require additional cash above our current forecast requirements.

ITEM 3 – QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Intentionally omitted pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K.
ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures and internal controls. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives.
As required by the Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There have not been any changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
