CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”) contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that are intended to be covered by the “safe harbor” created by those sections. Forward-looking statements, which are based on certain assumptions and describe our future plans, strategies and expectations, can generally be identified by the use of forward-looking terms such as “believe,” “expect,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “seek,” “intend,” “plan,” “goal,” “project,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “strategy,” “future,” “likely” or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or other comparable terminology. All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this Quarterly Report regarding our strategies, prospects, financial condition, operations, costs, plans and objectives are forward-looking statements. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements we make regarding: expectations for revenues, cash flows and financial performance and the anticipated results of our ongoing development and business strategies.
Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Our actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following:
| · | our history of, and expectation of future, losses; |
| · | our limited operating history; |
| · | the success of our growth strategy; |
| · | our ability to generate revenue or achieve profitability; |
| · | our ability to identify and successfully integrate acquisitions; |
| · | our ability to obtain additional financing on acceptable terms, if at all; |
| · | our ability to attract and retain key personnel, including our strategic operating partners; |
| · | general business, financial market and economic conditions; |
| · | the impact on our business and the overall economy of public health epidemics, including the recent coronavirus pandemic; |
| · | competition in the markets in which we operate; |
| · | seasonality of our operating businesses and the impact of weather conditions; |
| · | costs of raw materials, fuel prices and wages; |
| · | product shortages, loss of key suppliers, failure to develop relationships with qualified suppliers or dependence on third-party suppliers and manufacturers; |
| · | fluctuations in new commercial and residential construction and housing sectors; |
| · | our ability to attract, retain and maintain positive relations with our employees; |
| · | compliance with government regulations; |
| · | the marketability of our Class A Common Stock; |
| · | the volatility of the price of our Class A Common Stock; |
| · | public company costs; and |
| · | our lack of effective internal controls. |
Any forward-looking statement made by us in this report is based only on information currently available to us and speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the period ended December 31, 2019 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Annual Report”) filed with the SEC on March 30, 2020. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal, recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. The Company’s actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
ANDOVER NATIONAL CORPORATION
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
As a result of the Business Combination, the Company is the acquirer for accounting purposes and ANC Green Solutions I is the acquiree and accounting predecessor. The Company’s financial statement presentation distinguishes the Company’s financial performance into two distinct periods, the period up to the closing date of the Business Combination (labeled “Predecessor”) and the period including and after that date (labeled “Successor”).
The Business Combination was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting, and the Successor financial statements reflect a new basis of accounting that is based on the fair value of the net assets acquired. Determining the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed is judgmental in nature and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. See Note 4 – Business Combinations for a discussion of the estimated fair values of assets and liabilities recorded in connection with the Company’s acquisition of ANC Green Solutions I.
As a result of the application of the acquisition method of accounting as of the closing date of the Business Combination, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include a black line division which indicates that the Predecessor and Successor reporting entities shown are presented on a different basis and are therefore, not comparable.
The historical financial information of the Company prior to the Business Combination has not been reflected in the Predecessor financial statements as these historical amounts have been determined to be not useful information to a reader of the financial statements. The operations of the Company, until the closing of a business combination, other than income from investments and general and administrative expenses, were nominal. Accordingly, no other activity in the Company was reported for periods prior to October 4, 2019 besides ANC Green Solutions I’s’ operations as Predecessor.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Management makes estimates that affect certain accounts including deferred income tax assets, accrued expenses, fair value of equity instruments and reserves for any other commitments or contingencies. Any adjustments applied to estimates are recognized in the period in which such adjustments are determined.
Principles of Consolidation
The Company’s policy is to consolidate all entities in which it has a controlling financial interest. For consolidated entities that are less than wholly owned, the third party’s holding of equity interest is presented as noncontrolling interests in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statement of equity and redeemable noncontrolling interest. The portion of net income (loss) attributable to the noncontrolling interests is presented as net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations.
The accompanying Successor unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Andover National Corporation and its consolidated subsidiaries, ANC Green Solutions I, ANC Potter’s and ANC Smith’s. The accompanying Predecessor consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ANC Green Solutions I and its consolidated subsidiaries, Legg Lawncare, Inc. and Legg SMS Franchising, Inc.
All material inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest
The Company classifies noncontrolling interests that contain an option of the noncontrolling shareholders to require the Company to purchase their interest as redeemable noncontrolling interests within mezzanine equity on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

Concentration and credit risk
The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and periodically evaluates the credit worthiness of the financial institutions and has determined the credit exposure to be negligible.
Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable are limited due to the number of customers comprising the customer base. No customer accounted for more than 10% of total revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The Company reserves for all accounts that are deemed to be uncollectible and reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts regularly. The allowance is based on the age of receivables and a specific identification of receivables considered at risk. Account balances are written off against the allowance when the potential for recovery is considered remote.
The following table provides a roll forward of the allowance for doubtful accounts:
| | Successor | | | Predecessor | |
| | Six Months Ended | | | Six Months Ended | |
| | June 30, | | | June 30, | |
| | 2020 | | | 2019 | |
Allowance for doubtful accounts, beginning of period | | $ | 2,467 | | | $ | 34,976 | |
Bad debt expense | | | 16,872 | | | | - | |
Allowance for doubtful accounts, end of period | | $ | 19,339 | | | $ | 34,976 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment, stated at cost, are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset, or for leasehold improvements, over the shorter of the estimated useful life or the lease term. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the estimated useful lives (in years) of each of the Company’s classes of property and equipment were as follows:
| | Useful Lives (in years) | |
Vehicles | | | 5-10 | |
Equipment | | | 5-7 | |
Buildings | | | 15 | |
Leasehold improvements | | | 5 | |
Office equipment | | | 5-7 | |
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value measurements are based on the premise that fair value is an exit price representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the following three-tier fair value hierarchy has been used in determining the inputs used in measuring fair value:
Level 1- Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities on the reporting date.
Level 2- Pricing inputs are based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
ANDOVER NATIONAL CORPORATION
Notes to the Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Level 3- Pricing inputs are generally unobservable and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment. The inputs into the determination of fair value require management’s judgment or estimation of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities. The fair values are therefore determined using factors that involve considerable judgment and interpretations, including but not limited to private and public comparables, third-party appraisals, discounted cash flow models and fund manager estimates.
Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Management’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The use of different assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on estimated fair values. Accordingly, the fair value estimates disclosed or initial amounts recorded may not be indicative of the amount that the Company or holders of the instruments could realize in a current market exchange.
As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the recorded values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and notes payable, approximate the fair values due to the short-term nature of the instruments.
Recent Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments- Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”). This guidance introduces a new model for recognizing credit losses on financial instruments based on an estimate of current expected credit losses. ASU 2016-13 also provides updated guidance regarding the impairment of available-for-sale debt securities and includes additional disclosure requirements. The new guidance is effective for public business entities that meet the definition of a Smaller Reporting Company as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles- Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”), which simplifies goodwill impairment testing. This new guidance is effective for public business entities that meet the definition of a Smaller Reporting Company as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission for annual or interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
The Company’s revenue is primarily generated from residential and commercial lawn care programs and services, which includes lawncare, landscaping and hardscaping, irrigation, and mosquito, termite and pest control services and from tree care services, which includes tree trimming service, tree removal, stump grinding, mulching, logging and related services. The Company generally recognizes revenue from the sale of services as the services are performed, which is typically ratably over the term of the contract(s), which the Company believes to be the best measure of progress. The Company recognizes revenues as it completes services to its customers in an amount reflecting the total consideration it expects to receive from the customer.
Payment terms vary by customer, but payments are generally due at the point of service. The Company incurs certain direct incremental costs to obtain contracts with customers, such as sales-related commissions, where the recognition period for the related revenue is less than one years. These costs are expensed as incurred and recorded within general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of operations.

The Company also grants franchises to operators in exchange for an initial franchise license fee and continuing royalty payments. Franchise revenue is recognized over the license term as the Company has determined that all obligations under the franchise agreements represent a single performance obligation that is satisfied over time.
Note 4 – Business Combination (Successor)
ANC Green Solutions I
As described in Note 1, on October 4, 2019, the Company acquired sixty percent (60%) of the membership interests of ANC Green Solutions I for $4.0 million in cash, consisting of $3.5 million paid at the closing of the Business Combination and an aggregate of $0.5 million in deferred consideration to be paid on the one- and two- year anniversary of the closing of the Business Combination.

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company made certain measurement period adjustments to accounts receivable and other current assets, property and equipment, goodwill, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and deferred cash consideration. The impact of these measurement period adjustments, both individually and in aggregate, were nominal.
The Company identified tradename and customer relationship intangible assets. The tradename and customer relationships will be amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life (see Note 6).
The goodwill recognized results from such factors as an assembled workforce and management’s industry know-how and is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.
The acquisition-date fair value of the noncontrolling interest was determined using a market approach based on the transaction price observed in the Business Combination.

Recent Developments
COVID-19-Related Considerations
The COVID-19 outbreak, which surfaced in Wuhan, China in December 2019 and which was subsequently declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020, has had a pronounced effect on the domestic and global economies. In March and April 2020, our businesses began to feel the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic which resulted in a temporary decline in the demand for our services. Subsequently, demand for our services stabilized and eventually normalized to historical levels. As the demand for our services returned to historical levels, we began to experience some shortages of skilled labor to perform certain of our select services. We have continued to experience isolated difficulties in hiring additional seasonally required employees to staff our various businesses and we have been required to implement safety protocols that has reduced our efficiency. Additionally, certain of our employees have experienced illness related to the pandemic which has temporarily reduced our capacity. Further, as our businesses are located in the Southeastern United States, which is currently an area with significant COVID-19 infection, the extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our business, financial results, liquidity and cash flows will depend largely on future developments, including new information that may emerge concerning the severity and action taken to contain or prevent further spread within the U.S. and the related impact on consumer confidence and spending, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.
Results of Operations
As a result of the Business Combination, we are the acquirer for accounting purposes and ANC Green Solutions I is the acquiree and accounting predecessor. Our financial statement presentation distinguishes our financial performance into two distinct periods, the period up to the closing date of the Business Combination (labeled “Predecessor”) and the period including and after that date (labeled “Successor”).
Our historical financial information prior to the Business Combination has not been reflected in the Predecessor financial statements as these historical amounts have been determined to be not useful information to a reader of the financial statements. Our operations, until the closing of the Business Combination, other than income from investments and general and administrative expenses, were nominal. Accordingly, no other activity of ours was reported for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 besides ANC Green Solutions I’s operations as Predecessor.

The increase was attributable to the inclusion of Andover’s expenses primarily associated with compensation and benefits and professional fees during the six months ended June 30, 2020.
Sales and marketing expenses
Sales and marketing expenses increased by approximately $19,064 during the six months ended June 30, 2020 (Successor) as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019 (Predecessor), which was primarily attributable to ANC Potter’s and ANC Smith’s.
Other income (expense)
Other income (expense) of approximately $33,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2020 (Successor) primarily reflects investment income from our holdings of highly liquid investments, which are classified as cash equivalents. Other income (expense) was nominal during the three months ended June 30, 2019 (Predecessor).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents of $9.3 million and total equity of $17.9 million. Net working capital was $7.9 million.
In April 2020, ANC Green Solutions I, ANC Potter’s and ANC Smith’s each qualified for and received a loan pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program, a program implemented by the U.S. Small Business Administration under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, from qualified lenders, for an aggregate principal amount of $569,746 (the “PPP Loans”). The PPP Loans bear interest at a fixed rate of 1.0% per annum, with the first six months of interest deferred, have terms of two years, and are unsecured and guaranteed by the U.S. Small Business Administration. The principal amounts of the PPP Loans are subject to forgiveness under the Paycheck Protection Program upon our request to the extent that the PPP Loan proceeds are used to pay expenses permitted by the Paycheck Protection Program, including payroll costs, covered rent and mortgage obligations, and covered utility payments incurred by the borrower. We intend to apply for forgiveness of the PPP Loans with respect to these covered expenses. To the extent that all or part of the PPP Loans are not forgiven, we will be required to pay interest on the PPP Loan at a rate of 1.0% per annum, and commencing in October 2020, principal and interest payments will be required through the maturity dates in April 2022. The terms of the PPP Loans provide for customary events of default including, among other things, payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, and insolvency events. The PPP Loans may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default.
Our principal capital requirements are to fund our working capital needs and to make investments in line with our business strategy. We calculate working capital as current assets less current liabilities. Our principal sources of liquidity are existing cash and cash equivalents, cash flows from operations and financing activities. In addition, as a public company, we may from time to time access the capital markets through the offering and sale of our securities. However, there can be no assurance that any such alternative sources would be available or sufficient. We believe that future operating cash flows, together with cash on hand will be sufficient to meet our future operating and capital expenditure cash requirements for the next twelve months.
The COVID-19 outbreak, which surfaced in Wuhan, China in December 2019 and which was subsequently declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020, has had a pronounced effect on the domestic and global economies. In March and April 2020, our businesses began to feel the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic which resulted in a temporary decline in the demand for our services. Subsequently, demand for our services stabilized and eventually normalized to historical levels. As the demand for our services returned to historical levels, we began to experience some shortages of skilled labor to perform certain of our select services. We have continued to experience isolated difficulties in hiring additional seasonally required employees to staff our various businesses and we have been required to implement safety protocols that has reduced our efficiency. Additionally, certain of our employees have experienced illness related to the pandemic which has temporarily reduced our capacity. Further, as our businesses are located in the Southeastern United States, which is currently an area with significant COVID-19 infection, the extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our business, financial results, liquidity and cash flows will depend largely on future developments, including new information that may emerge concerning the severity and action taken to contain or prevent further spread within the U.S. and the related impact on consumer confidence and spending, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.

Critical accounting policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. Our accounting policies are described in Note 1 to our audited financial statements for 2019 appearing in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide this information.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, management performed, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Management’s evaluation identified the following material weakness as of June 30, 2020: insufficient personnel resources within the accounting function to segregate the duties over financial transaction processing and reporting. Based on the foregoing evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change to our internal controls or in other factors that could affect these controls during the three months ended June 30, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. However, our management is currently seeking to improve our controls and procedures in an effort to remediate the deficiency described above.

From time to time, we are also a party to certain legal proceedings incidental to the normal course of our operating businesses.
