Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1. Organization and Business Operations

Business Description

SHF Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), based in Golden, Colorado, specializes in financial technology designed to facilitate banking service solutions tailored to the cannabis industry. Initially, the Company’s operations were developed as a credit union service organization, and asset of Partner Colorado Credit Union (“PCCU”). A strategic reorganization on July 1, 2021 consolidated select assets and activities from PCCU into SHF LLC (“SHF”) under SHF Holding Co., LLC. On September 28, 2022, Northern Lights Acquisition Corp. (“NLIT”) acquired SHF, changing its name from Northern Lights Acquisition Corp. to SHF Holdings, Inc., (the “Business Combination”). The Business Combination aimed to enhance the Company’s financial services and market footprint in the cannabis sector.

Further expanding its capabilities, the Company acquired Rockview Digital Solutions, Inc. d/b/a Abaca (“Abaca”) on October 31, 2022. This merger, executed in two steps, positioned Abaca as a wholly-owned subsidiary, bolstering the Company’s fintech offerings and market reach.

The Company facilitates a range of financial services through its financial institution partners using a proprietary technology platform for deposit compliance and ongoing deposit activity compliance with banking regulations and regulators. These include access to business checking and savings accounts, cash management, commercial lending, courier services, remote deposit services, ACH payments, and wire payments. These services enable cannabis businesses to manage their finances effectively while ensuring regulatory compliance. The company generates revenue from fee income, investment income, loan interest income and by offering compliance services to certain financial institutions serving the cannabis industry.

Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

i. Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and results of operations included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Refer to Note 2 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for a description of the Company’s significant accounting policies. The Company has included disclosures below regarding basis of presentation and other accounting policies that (i) are required to be disclosed quarterly, (ii) have material changes or (iii) the Company views as critical as of the date of this report.

ii. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the SEC.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to state fairly the consolidated financial condition, results of operations, statements of shareholders’ equity, and cash flows of the Company for the interim periods presented. Except as otherwise disclosed, all such adjustments consist only of those of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the current year ending December 31, 2024 or other interim periods. The financial data presented herein should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”).

The Company has made certain immaterial reclassifications to the statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, to conform to the presentation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. These reclassifications, totaling $193,065 and $384,008 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 respectively, were moved from ‘Interest Expense’ to ‘Change in the Fair Value of Deferred Consideration’. Corresponding adjustments have been made to the statement of cash flows and the applicable notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SHF Holdings, Inc., its subsidiaries where the Company have controlling financial interests. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and the instructions to Form 10-Q.

iii. Concentrations of Risk

The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash. Cash balances are maintained substantially in accounts at PCCU, which are insured by the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund (“NCUSIF”) up to regulatory limits. From time to time, cash balances may exceed the NCUSIF insurance limit. The Company has not experienced any credit losses associated with its cash balances in the past.

In addition to providing compliance and related services for its financial institution partners, the Company offers services to businesses operating primarily in the cannabis industry as well as businesses offering cannabis adjacent services. Cannabis remains illegal under federal law, and therefore, strict enforcement of federal laws regarding cannabis would likely result in our inability to execute our business plan.

Currently the Company substantially relies on PCCU to hold customer deposits and fund its originated loans. The majority of the Company’s revenue is generated by deposits and loans hosted by PCCU pursuant to a commercial alliance agreement dated March 29, 2023 between PCCU and the Company, as previously disclosed as an exhibit to the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “Commercial Alliance Agreement”).

The Company had only one loan on its balance sheet as of June 30, 2024, which comprises 100% of the total loan balance. The Company also indemnified twenty-four loans as of June 30, 2024; of which three of these indemnified loans were in excess of 10% of the total balance.

iv. Use of Estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Material estimates that are particularly subject to change in the near term include the determination of the allowance for credit losses, indemnification liabilities, useful lives of intangibles and the fair value of financial instruments. Actual results could differ from the estimates.

v. Liquidity and Going Concern

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $6,111,982 in cash and net working capital of $301,738, as compared to $4,888,769 in cash and net working capital deficit of $135,355 as of December 31, 2023. The retained deficit was $69,444,867 on June 30, 2024, and $71,569,821 on December 31, 2023. The Company has also generated operating income of $300,163 and $625,104 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 respectively.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company reported positive operating income and net working capital. However, considering the historical data, where the Company experienced negative operating income and negative net working capital, management acknowledges the need to closely evaluate the financial performance in upcoming quarters to mitigate any going concern risks. As of June 30, 2024, due to these historical trends, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least twelve months from the date these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were issued.

If the Company is not able to sustain its present level of operations, it may be forced to make reductions in spending, extend payment terms with suppliers, liquidate assets where possible, or suspend or curtail planned expansion programs. Any of these actions could materially harm the Company’s business, results of operations and future prospects.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business, and do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company not continue as a going concern as a result of this uncertainty.

vi. Recently Issued Accounting Standards

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, or other standard setting bodies and adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

Adopted Standards

Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”)

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which introduces a model based on expected losses to estimate credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10 Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842). The update allows the extension of the initial effective date for entities which have not yet adopted ASU No. 2016-02. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022 for private companies and SEC filers classified as smaller reporting entities, with early adoption permitted. Entities apply the standard’s provisions by recording a cumulative effect adjustment to retained deficit. The Company has adopted ASU 2016-13 as of January 1, 2023, utilizing the modified retrospective method.

CECL Transition Impact: The table below provides details on the transition impacts of adopting CECL. Other balance sheet lines not presented were not affected by CECL.

CECL Transition Impact:

Schedule of Current Expected Credit Losses Transition Impact

Assets	December 31, 2022			Transition Adjustment			January 1, 2023
Loans receivable, gross	$	1,432,560		$	-		$	1,432,560
Less: Allowance for credit loss		(21,488	)		(14,980	)		(36,468	)
	$	1,411,072		$	(14,980	)	$	1,396,092

	$	(39,195,816	)	$	(14,980	)	$	(39,210,796	)

Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures

This Accounting Standard Update (ASU 2022-02) eliminates the recognition and measurement guidance on troubled debt restructurings for creditors that have adopted ASC 326 and requires them to make enhanced disclosures about loan modifications for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. The new guidance also requires public business entities to present current period gross write-offs (on a current year-to-date basis for interim-period disclosures) by year of origination in their vintage disclosures. For entities that have adopted ASU 2016-13, this ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has adopted this standard as of January 1, 2023 and the ASU has not had a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions

This Accounting Standard Update (ASU 2022-03) clarifies that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered when measuring fair value. Recognizing a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security as a separate unit of account is not permitted. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has adopted this standard as of January 1, 2024 and the ASU has not had a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848

This Accounting Standard Update (ASU 2022-06) defers the Sunset Date of ASC Topic 848, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), which provides temporary optional relief in accounting for the impact of Reference Rate Reform. This ASU is effective upon issuance (December 21, 2022) and generally can be applied through December 31, 2024. This ASU has not had a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures

In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-02, Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures using the Proportional Amortization Method. The FASB issued final guidance allowing entities to apply the proportional amortization method to equity investments in all tax credit programs that meet the conditions in ASC 323-740, rather than just investments in qualified affordable projects that generate low income housing tax credits, as was required under the legacy guidance. The guidance is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within those fiscal years. This ASU has not had a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Standards Pending to be Adopted

Business Combinations-Joint Venture Formations

In August 2023, the FASB issued 2023-05, Business Combinations-Joint Venture Formations (Subtopic 805-60); Recognition and Initial Measurement. This ASU contains guidance requiring certain joint ventures to apply a new basis of accounting upon formation by recognizing and initially measuring most of their assets and liabilities at fair value. This guidance is effective for all joint venture formations with a formation date on or after January 1, 2025. Early adoption is permitted. Joint Ventures formed before the effective date have the option to apply it retrospectively, while those formed after the effective date are required to apply it prospectively. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Disclosure Improvements, “Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative.”

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements, “Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative”. This ASU amends the disclosure or presentation requirements related to various subtopics in the FASB codification.

The effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC’s removal of that related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective, with early adoption prohibited. For all other entities, the amendments will be effective two years later. The amendments in this Update should be applied prospectively. For all entities, if by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the applicable requirement from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K, the pending content of the related amendment will be removed from the codification and will not become effective for any entity. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Segment Reporting

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280). This ASU requires public entities to provide disclosures of significant segment expenses and other segment items. It also requires public entities to provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. Public entities with a single reportable segment will have to provide all the disclosures required by ASC 280, including the significant segment expense disclosures. This guidance is applied retrospectively to all periods presented, unless it is impractical. This ASU applies to all public entities and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740). This ASU requires public business entities to disclose in their rate reconciliation table additional categories of information about income taxes paid, including certain disclosures that would be disaggregated by jurisdiction and other categories. This ASU is effective for fiscal years after December 15, 2024. Early adoption would be permitted. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2024-01: Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards

ASU 2024-01 clarifies the scope applications of profits interest awards by adding illustrative guidance to ASC 718 “Compensation-Stock Compensation.” The amendments in the ASU apply to all reporting entities that account for profits interest awards as compensation to employees or non-employees in return for goods or services.

The term “profits interest” is not explicitly defined in US GAAP. Rather, an IRS Revenue Procedure (Rev Proc 93-27) defines a “Profits Interest” as a “partnership interest other than a capital interest.” Unlike a capital interest, which provides rights to existing net assets of an entity, a profits interest only provides rights to future profits and/or equity appreciation of an entity. This distinction, along with other terms, conditions and characteristics of profits interests often complicates accounting decisions for profits interests, leading to diversity in practice whether to account for profits interests under ASC 718 or other US GAAP.

The ASU introduces four (4) illustrative examples of fact patterns that demonstrate how an entity would apply the scope guidance in paragraph 718-10-15-3 to a profits interest or similar award with certain features.

The ASUs are effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods within those years. For all other entities, adoption is required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2024-02: Codification Improvements—Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements

The ASU contains amendments to the Codification that remove references to various FASB Concepts Statements. The FASB has a standing project on its agenda to address suggestions received from stakeholders on the Accounting Standards Codification and other incremental improvements to US GAAP. This effort facilitates Codification updates for technical corrections such as conforming amendments, clarifications to guidance, simplifications to wording or the structure of guidance and other minor improvements. In the Board’s view, removing all references to Concept Statements in the guidance will simplify the codification and draw a distinction between authoritative and non-authoritative literature.

The amendments in the Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2025. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 3. Deferred Consideration

On November 11, 2022, as provided in Exhibit 2.1 of the Current Report of Form 8-K on November 14, 2022, the Company entered into the first Amendment to the Merger Agreement and Plan of Merger to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 29, 2022, by and among the Parent, SHF Merger Sub I, a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub I”), SHF Merger Sub II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub II” and, together with Merger Sub I, the “Merger Subs”), Rockview Digital Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation, d/b/a Abaca and Dan Roda, solely in such individual’s capacity as the representative of the Company Security Holders (collectively with the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement provided for payment of $30 million through a mix of cash and stock. The payment structure included $9 million in cash, distributed in three equal installments, with the first installment occurring at the merger closing and the other installments being paid on the first and second anniversaries of the merger closing. Additionally, the Class A Common Stock consideration was settled through 2,100,000 Class A Common Stock which represented a monetary equivalent calculated against the closing trading price, alongside deferred stock consideration calculated with a 10-day VWAP formula. Adjustments were made via amendments to redefine the terms and conditions of the deferred stock and cash considerations. The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the Merger Agreement attached as Exhibit 2.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K.

Under the Second Amendment to Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated October 26, 2023, by and among SHF Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation, Merger Sub I, a Delaware corporation, [Merger Sub II], a Delaware limited liability corporation, Rockview Digital Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation, d/b/a Abaca and Dan Roda, solely in such individual’s capacity as the representative of the Abaca security holders as referenced in Exhibit 2.1 of the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on October 27, 2023 (the “Amended Abaca Merger Agreement”)The revised terms, provides for deferred stock consideration of 5,835,822 shares of Class A Common Stock issued at the first anniversary of the Abaca Merger Agreement based on a recalculated value of $2.00 per share. No changes affected the scheduled cash payments. Furthermore, a third-anniversary consideration of $1.5 million was introduced, payable in cash or Class A Common Stock at the Company’s discretion, alongside an issue of 5,000,000 stock warrants at an exercise price of $2.00 per share of Class A Common Stock. The adjustments and additional considerations have been valued and recorded according to ASC 815, reflecting changes in the fair value of deferred consideration in the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The change in the amount of deferred consideration from January 1, 2023, to June 30, 2024, is as follows:

Schedule of Change in Deferred Consideration

	Stock consideration			Cash consideration			Third Anniversary Consideration Payment
January 1, 2023	$	11,456,639		$	5,650,775		$	-

Note 4. Goodwill and Finite-lived Intangible Assets

Goodwill

The Company’s goodwill was derived from the Abaca Merger , where the purchase price exceeded the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired. Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if a triggering event occurs.

In 2023, the Company conducted an interim goodwill and intangible impairment assessment on June 30, 2023, and found that the carrying value of goodwill exceeded its fair value, leading to the recognition of a $13,208,276 non-cash goodwill impairment charge in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The December 31, 2023, annual impairment test resulted in no additional impairment change recognized, as the fair value did not surpass the carrying value. As of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the carrying value of the company’s goodwill was $6,058,000.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company has not conducted an interim impairment assessment of its assets, due to the absence of any triggering events. Therefore, no additional impairment charges have been recognized in this reporting period.

As of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company’s accumulated goodwill impairment was $13,208,276.

Finite-lived intangible assets

The Company reviews its finite-lived intangible assets for impairment at least annually on December 31 unless any events or circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of the finite-lived intangible assets is less than its carrying value.

In 2023, following a triggering event in the second quarter, the Company performed an interim goodwill and intangible asset impairment assessment. In accordance with our established policy, an annual review was also conducted on December 31, 2023. The finite-lived intangible assets evaluated include market-related intangibles, customer relationships, and developed technologies. The interim analysis resulted in an impairment charge of $3,680,463, attributed to the carrying values of market-related intangibles and customer relationships surpassing their fair values. The annual review further identified an impairment charge of $2,019,000 related to developed technologies.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company has not conducted an interim impairment assessment of its assets, due to the absence of any triggering events. Therefore, no additional impairment changes have been recognized in this reporting period.

Following is a summary of the Company’s finite-lived intangible assets as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

Schedule of Finite Lived Intangible Assets

Credit quality of loans:

As part of the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of the Company’s loan portfolio, management tracks credit quality indicators based on the loan payment status on monthly basis. The Company continuously evaluates the credit quality of each indemnified loan by assessing the risk factors and assigning a risk rating based on a variety of factors. The detailed breakdown of risk factors are described in Note 6 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

The carrying value, excluding the CECL Reserve, of the Company’s loans held at carrying value within each risk rating is as follows:

Schedule of Risk Rating

Risk rating	June 30, 2024		December 31, 2023
4	$	398,495	$	404,577
Grand total	$	398,495	$	404,577

Note 6. Indemnification Liability

As discussed at Note 8 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, and pursuant to the Commercial Alliance Agreement with PCCU, PCCU funds loans through a third-party vendor. SHF earns the associated interest and pays PCCU a loan hosting payment at an annual rate of 0.35% of the outstanding loan principal funded and serviced by PCCU and 0.25% of the outstanding loan principle serviced by SHF. The below schedule details outstanding amounts funded by PCCU and categorized as either collateralized loans or unsecured loans and lines of credit.

Schedule of Outstanding Amounts

	June 30, 2024		December 31, 2023
Secured term loans	$	54,059,933	$	55,215,013
Unsecured loans and lines of credit		900,000		431,640
Total loans funded by PCCU	$	54,959,933	$	55,646,653

Secured loans contained an interest rate ranging from 8.00% to 13.00%. Unsecured loans and lines of credit contain an interest rate ranging from 10.00% to 12.50%. Unsecured lines of credit had incremental availability of $231,052 and $996,958 on June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

SHF has agreed to indemnify PCCU for losses on certain PCCU loans. The indemnity liability reflects SHF management’s estimate of probable credit losses inherent under the agreement at the balance sheet date. The Company’s estimated indemnity liability on the reporting date was calculated in accordance with the allowance for credit loss and indemnity liability policies described in Note 2 to the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K.

The indemnity liability activity are as follows:

Schedule of Indemnity Liability

	2024			2023

Ending balance	$	1,218,263		$	1,661,651

As of June 30, 2024, the company’s entire loan portfolio was current and performing. However, as of December 31, 2023, one loan had been classified as nonaccrual. On December 29, 2023, the company successfully negotiated an amendment agreement to the nonaccrual loan agreement, resulting in the payment of all overdue amounts and restoring the loan to current status. During the second quarter of 2024, the company received the full principal amount of the loan, along with all accrued interest.

Credit quality of indemnified loans:

As part of the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of the Company’s indemnified loan portfolio, management tracks credit quality indicators based on the loan payment status on monthly basis. The Company continuously evaluates the credit quality of each indemnified loan by assessing the risk factors and assigning a risk rating based on a variety of factors. Risk factors include property type, geographic and local market dynamics, physical condition, projected cash flow, loan structure and exit plan, loan-to-value ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, project sponsorship, and other factors deemed necessary. Based on a 10-point scale, the Company’s loans are rated “0” through “10,” from less risk to greater risk, which ratings are defined as follows:

Risk rating	Category	Description
0	Risk Free	Free of repayment risk. The loan is fully guaranteed by the full faith and backing of the US Government or entirely secured by cash controlled by SHF.
1	Highest Quality	High caliber loan with the lowest risk of default. Significant excess cash flow after debt service and moderate to low leverage.
2	Excellent	High quality loan that carry’s a low risk of default. Strong cash flow and relatively few negative individual risk factors.
3	Good	Loans with lower-than-average level of risk. Excess cash flow and other factors contributing to the overall low level of risk in the loan.
4	Average	Risk factors may be mixed with some negative and some positive aspects, but the overall rating will indicate an average level of risk.
5	Fair	Loans in this category have the maximum level of risk that can be accepted while still recommending a new loan for origination. The loan risk factors may contain multiple negative factors, but they are generally outweighed by the positive aspects of the loan.
6	Watch List	There is a temporary and curable condition resulting in a lower risk rating.
7	Special Mention	There is a potential weakness that may result in the deterioration of the prospect of repayment that are not temporary and may require additional collection or workout efforts.
8	Substandard	Loans in this category are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligors or of the collateral pledged and have well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt with distinct possibility of loss.

Commercial Alliance Agreement

On March 29, 2023, the Company and PCCU entered into the Commercial Alliance Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions governing the relationship between the Company and PCCU. The Commercial Alliance Agreement sets forth the application, underwriting, loan approval, and foreclosure process for loans from PCCU to borrowers that are cannabis-related businesses and the loan servicing and monitoring responsibilities provided by the Company and PCCU. In particular, the Commercial Alliance Agreement provides for procedures to be followed upon the default of a loan to ensure that neither the Company nor PCCU will take title to or possession of any cannabis-related assets, including real property, that may be collateral for a loan funded by PCCU pursuant to the Commercial Alliance Agreement. Under the Commercial Alliance agreement, PCCU has the right to receive monthly fees for managing loans. For CRB loans, which are funded by PCCU but primarily managed by the Company, a yearly fee of 0.25% of the remaining loan balance is applied. On the other hand, loans both funded and serviced by the PCCU are charged a yearly fee of 0.35% on their outstanding balance. These fees are calculated using the average daily balance of each loan for the preceding month. In addition, the Company’s is obligated by the Commercial Alliance Agreement to indemnify PCCU from certain default-related loan losses (as defined in the Commercial Alliance Agreement).

In addition, the Commercial Alliance Agreement provides for certain fees to be paid to the Company for certain identified account related services to include: all cannabis-related income, including all lending-related income (such as loan origination fees, interest income on CRB-related loans, participation fees and servicing fees), investment income, interest income, account activity fees, processing fees, flat fees, and other revenue generated from cannabis and multi-state hemp accounts that are hosted on PCCU’s core system for a monthly fee equal to $30.96 per account in 2022, $25.32-$27.85 per account in 2023, and $26.08-$28.69 in 2024. In addition, as it pertains to CRB deposits held at PCCU, investment and interest income earned on these deposits (excluding interest income on loans funded by PCCU) will be shared 25% to PCCU and 75% to the Company. Finally, under the Commercial Alliance Agreement, PCCU will continue to allow its ratio of CRB-related deposits to total assets to equal at least 60% unless otherwise dictated by regulatory, regulator or policy requirements. The initial term of the Commercial Alliance Agreement is for a period of two years, with a one-year automatic renewal unless a party provides one hundred twenty days’ written notice prior to the end of the term.

The below schedule demonstrates the ratio of CRB related loans funded by PCCU to the relative lending limits:

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had 5,750,000 Public Warrants and 264,088 Private Placement Warrants.

The Public and Private Placement Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of Class A Common Stock.

The Public and Private Placement Warrants became exercisable on September 28, 2022, the date of the Business Combination and will expire on September 28, 2027, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

No warrant will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, and the Company will not be obligated to issue any shares to holders seeking to exercise their warrants, unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered or qualified under the securities laws of the state of the exercising holder, or an exemption from registration is available.

Redemption of warrants become exercisable when the price per Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00. Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the warrants:

●	in whole and not in part;
●	at a price of $0.01 per warrant;
●	upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and
●	if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like and certain issuances of Class A Common Stock and equity-linked securities) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period commencing no earlier than the date the warrants become exercisable and ending on the third business day before the date on which the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may exercise its redemption rights; this is also the case if the Company is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

If the Company calls the warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuance of Class A Common Stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants.

The private placement warrants are identical to the public warrants, except that the private placement warrants and the Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the private placement warrants were not transferable, assignable or saleable, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the private placement warrants are exercisable on a cashless basis and non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the private placement warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the private placement warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the public warrants.

PIPE Warrants

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had 1,022,500 PIPE Warrants, as referenced in Exhibit 4.1 of the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on October 4, 2022.

The PIPE Warrants have an adjusted exercise price of $5.00 per share of Class A Common Stock to be paid in cash (except if the shares underlying the warrants are not covered by an effective registration statement after the six-month anniversary of the closing date, in which case cashless exercise is permitted. The PIPE Warrants are also subject to adjustment for other customary adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits and similar corporate actions. The PIPE Warrants are exercisable for a period of five years following the Closing, or September 28, 2027. After exercise of a PIPE Warrant, the Company may be required to pay certain penalties if it fails to deliver the Class A Common Stock within a specified period of time.

Abaca Warrants

As of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company issued 5,000,000 Abaca warrants, as referenced in Exhibit 2.2 of the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on October 27, 2023.

The 5,000,000 Abaca warrants have an exercise price of $2.00 per share of Class A Common Stock to be paid in cash. An Abaca Warrant may be exercised only during the period commencing 1 year of the Effective Date and terminating five (5) years from the effective date of the registration statement. The Company may, in its sole discretion, settle the Abaca Warrant when exercised, in whole or in part, in cash in lieu of issuing shares of common stock underlying the Warrant. The Company may elect to pay the Registered Holder in cash in the amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of the Company’s Class A Common Stock on the date of exercise and the warrant price ($2.00) multiplied by the number of shares of Class A Common Stock. The Company commits to promptly registering shares of Class A Common Stock issued upon Abaca Warrant exercises if required by law, ensuring these shares can be sold without restrictions. This registration must be filed within 45 days of receiving a notification of such a requirement, with failure to do so constituting a default. The Company will endeavor to keep the registration effective until the Warrants expire. If the registration isn’t effective within one year, Abaca Warrant holders may exercise their Warrants on a cashless basis, receiving shares based on a defined fair market value calculation. This process aims to facilitate the straightforward and lawful exercise of the Abaca Warrants, ensuring the shares issued are readily tradable without the need for restrictive legends.

Note 16. Financial Instruments

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The fair value hierarchy ranks the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

	○	Level 1 – Observable, unadjusted quoted prices in active markets
	○	Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability
	○	Level 3 – Unobservable inputs with little or no market activity that require the Company to use reasonable inputs and assumptions

The Company uses fair value measurements to record adjustments to certain financial assets and liabilities on a recurring basis. The Company may be required to record certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in specific circumstances, such as evidence of impairment. Methodologies used to determine fair value might be highly subjective and judgmental in nature; therefore, valuations may not be precise. If the Company determines that a valuation technique change is necessary, the change is assumed to have occurred at the end of the respective reporting period.

Assets and Liabilities Reported at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Public Warrants:

Public warrants are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company obtains exchange traded price, of Level 1 inputs, based on observable data to value these warrants.

Private Placement Warrants:

Private Placement Warrants are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis based upon an internal Company assessed value of these derivatives with Level 3 inputs, which are derived from the Black-Scholes model.

PIPE Warrants:

PIPE Warrants are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis based upon an internal Company assessed value of these derivatives with Level 3 inputs, which are derived from the Black-Scholes model.

Abaca Warrants:

Abaca Warrants are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company assessed the value of these derivatives with Level 3 inputs. Level 3 inputs, based on unobservable data derived from the Black-Scholes model.

Third Anniversary Payment Consideration:

Third anniversary payment consideration are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company values these derivatives based on third party reports for Level 3 inputs. Level 3 inputs are based on unobservable data derived from the Black Scholes-Merton model.

Forward Purchase Option Derivatives:

Forward purchase option derivatives are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. In 2022, the Company values these derivatives based on third party reports for Level 3 inputs. In 2023 and 2024, no significant risk factor changes affecting forward purchase option derivative values were noted.

The following tables summarize financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, by the level of valuation inputs in the fair value hierarchy on June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis

Assets that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis primarily comprises of property, plant and equipment, right-to-use assets, finite lived intangible assets and goodwill. The Company does not record these at fair value on a recurring basis, however, the carrying value of the assets may be reduced to fair value when the Company determines that impairment has occurred.

At December 31, 2023, the Company’s developed technology asset were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as result of annual impairment testing. In order to evaluate the fair value of the developed technology asset, the annual impairment test employed the Relief from Royalty Method for accurately reflecting market conditions and asset performance.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company uses various methodologies and assumptions to estimate the fair value of certain financial instruments. With the exceptions of loans receivable, warrants and forward purchase option derivatives, the Company considers the carrying amounts of its financial instruments (cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable) in the balance sheet to approximate fair value because of the short-term or highly liquid nature of these financial instruments.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company assessed the fair value of its forward purchase agreement (FPA) derivative utilizing a Monte Carlo Simulation within a risk-neutral setting, which is a particular instance of the Income Approach, based on calculations from December 31, 2022. Throughout the periods ended June 30, of 2023 and 2024, there were no notable alterations in risk factors that would impact the valuation of the FPA derivative. Consequently, management retained the December 31, 2022, valuation for December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024. The Company will continue to monitor the fair value of the forward option derivative each reporting period with subsequent revisions to be recorded in the Statements of Operations.

During the period ended June 30, of 2023 and 2024, there were no changes in the classification of financial instruments within Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Stock Options

Stock options are awarded to encourage ownership of the Company’s Class A Common Stock by employees and to provide increased incentive for employees to render services and to exert maximum effort for the success of the Company. The Company’s incentive stock options generally permit net-share settlement upon exercise. The option exercise price, vesting schedule and exercise period are determined for each grant by the administrator (person appointed by board to administer the stock plans) of the applicable plan. The Company’s stock options generally have a 10-year contractual term.

The assumptions used to determine the fair value of options granted in the six months ended June 30, 2024, using the Black-Scholes-Merton model are as follows:

Schedule of Fair Value of Options Granted Black-Scholes-Merton Model

Dividend yield	-	%
Risk-free interest rate	3.62 % to 4.23	%
Expected volatility (weighted-average and range, if applicable)	100	%
Expected term	6.00 to 6.50 years

The expected term of the options granted is calculated based on the simplified method by taking average of contractual term and vesting period the awards. The shares and the redeemable warrants of the Company were listed on the stock exchange for a limited period of the time and the share price has also dropped significantly from the date of listing. Based on these factors Management has considered the expected volatility at 100% for the current period. The risk-free interest rate used is the current yield on US Treasury notes with a term equal to the expected term of the options at the grant date. The expected dividend yield is based on annualized dividends on the underlying share during the expected term of the option.

Overview

We provide services to a variety of cannabis-industry participants in 41 states, including financial institutions that support business banking, private banking and commercial banking services to their customers, particularly those customers conducting business in or adjacent to the cannabis industry. Our services include, among other things:

	●	regulatory compliance consulting and software for maintaining “Know Your Customer” (“KYC”) and Bank Secrecy Act (“BSA”) compliance to financial institutions, principally conducted vis-à-vis our proprietary financial services platform;
	●	the origination, onboarding, verification, and servicing of cannabis-related deposit business for and on behalf of our partner financial institutions; and
	●	sourcing, underwriting, servicing, and administering loans issued to cannabis businesses and related entities, which are often also our customers, as well as being customers of our partner financial institutions.

Financial Services Platform

The Company has developed and commercialized a software based services platform for financial institutions providing banking services to cannabis-related businesses (“CRBs”). Our software enabled services access and maintain reliable financial information to enable both our financial institution clients and our the CRB clients to meet regulatory requirements. Our platform has been streamlined and fine-tuned for the past nine years which enables the Company’s staff to efficiently guide financial institution clients and the CRBs desiring banking services through the onboarding, validation and monitoring process. Our automated platform provides for an efficient and effective management tool allowing our employees to provide continuity of service while enabling compliance staff to monitor BSA activities.

Through the Company’s financial services platform, our financial institution clients have the ability to provide CRBs with access to traditional financial services including wires, debit, ACH, remote deposit capture, business checking and savings accounts, courier and vaulting services, cash management accounts and commercial lending. We believe our services have been implemented consistent with applicable law and regulations, ensuring our financial institution clients will be able to provide CRBs with reliable access to these services. We feel our history of developing processes that satisfy regulatory standards has resulted in a solid reputation with related authorities and solidifies our ability to continue to grow existing services and reduces barriers in expanding into new service offerings.

CRB Deposits

The Company maintains relationships with PCCU and other financial institutions in which CRBs’ funds are deposited and monetary transactions are performed. The Company’s agreements with the financial institution allow the Company’s platform to interface with the financial institution’s core banking systems and extract data necessary to monitor the deposit accounts onboarded by the Company’s transactions, such as funds transmissions to or from the accounts, occur through PCCU’s and other financial institution client’s infrastructure.

The Company earns income on deposit activity and onboarding fees, which have historically been the majority of our revenue, based on CRB client’s initial onboarding and continuing deposit activity we facilitate between the CRB and our financial institution clients. When we help establish a new relationship between a CRB or ancillary service provider with our financial institution clients for which the Company provides its onboarding services, an initial onboarding fee is assessed based on the type and complexity of the business. Onboarding is an important part of the KYC requirements set forth in federal guidance. The onboarding process can require a great deal of time depending on the business complexity and the fee we assess is based upon the complexity and required time to complete the process. Additionally, the Company assesses fees monthly based on the frequency and amount of deposit activity fees of our CRB client.. These fees are also based on business type and size. Monitoring and validating deposit activity is paramount to the success of the Company’s platform. We believe our compliance-first focus reassures regulators and law enforcement that the Company continues to focus on the safety and soundness of the financial system.

The Company earns investment income based on the balances maintained on deposit by our CRB clients with our financial institution clients. Our financial institution clients invest the deposits of our CRB clients principally in US Treasury Federal Overnight Securities. We recognize revenue pursuant to the interest earned on these deposit balances and incur a cost of revenue we owe to the financial institution for facilitating the investment activity. Under our Commercial Alliance Agreement with PCCU, the Company pays 25% of the investment income as a hosting cost of revenue fee to PCCU based on the earned investment income from the CRB deposit balances maintained at PCCU. Through its relationship with PCCU, depository amounts invested are typically restricted to low-risk assets with high liquidity and modest returns. The investment income is significantly influenced by the levels of CRB deposits and the prevailing interest rate environment for cash and similar assets. We believe that fees based on deposits that we onboard and interest on the daily balance less cash used to collateralize our loan portfolios maintained with financial institutions will represent a significant portion of our revenue by 2024.

Commercial Lending Program

We earn interest income from lending activity we facilitate between our CRB clients and our financial institution clients. The robust CRB deposits onboarded by the Company and held at PCCU provide a strong foundation for lending capacity. In 2020, the Company launched a commercial lending program, that has developed to be our largest revenue component by value and percentage. The program focuses on senior secured lending, with smaller unsecured loans also being considered. Collateral types include real estate, equipment, and other business assets. The commercial lending program is built on:

- Stringent collateral package requirements with substantial loan-to-value coverage;

- Rigorous underwriting of collateral and borrower creditworthiness;

- In-depth knowledge of the industry, borrowers’ operations, and the cannabis industry business cycle.

Currently, lending is primarily funded through PCCU using CRB deposits balances onboarded by the Company. The Company is seeking relationships with additional financial institutions and other sources of working capital to directly fund the loans. The Company’s lending program is tailored to the unique needs of CRBs, achieving strong returns on high-quality loans. The Company in collaboration with third parties manages loan underwriting and loan servicing. As the program develops, the Company intends to establish a full-service internal lending function to perform a larger percentage of the underwriting and servicing activities, improve efficiency and increase profitability of this revenue element.

We believe our creative and methodical approach in building the Company’s platform has enabled national business scaling. The platform’s policies, training, monitoring, and processes are well established and supported by expert talent. We anticipate this combination of intellectual property plus human capital talent will provide a competitive advantage as we focus on continued growth.

Key Metrics

In addition to the measures presented in our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, our management regularly monitors certain measures in the operation of our business. These key metrics are discussed below.

Non-GAAP Measures

We use certain non-GAAP measures, referenced in this MD&A. These measures are not recognized measures under GAAP and do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation from nor as a substitute for our financial information reported under GAAP. We use non-GAAP measures including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin which may be calculated differently by other companies. These non-GAAP measures and metrics are used to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and liquidity and thus highlight trends in our business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP measures. These supplemental non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for, or as an alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with, the GAAP financial measures presented. We also recognize that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-GAAP measures in the evaluation of companies within our industry.

Earnings Before Interest Taxes Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) and Adjusted EBITDA

To provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, we have disclosed EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, both of which are non-GAAP financial measures that we calculate as net income before taxes and depreciation and amortization expense in the case of EBITDA and further adjusted to exclude non-cash, unusual and/or infrequent costs in the case of Adjusted EBITDA. Below we have provided a reconciliation of net (loss)/income (the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure) to EBITDA and from EBITDA to Adjusted EBITDA.

We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because these metrics are a key measure used by our management to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans, and make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of investment capacity. Accordingly, we believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our operating results in the same manner as our management.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are as follows:

●

although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future, and both EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect cash capital expenditure requirements for such replacements or for new capital expenditure requirements;

●

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; and

●

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us.

Because of these limitations, you should consider EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including net loss and our other U.S. GAAP results.

A reconciliation of net income to non-GAAP EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is as follows:

	Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2024			2023			2024			2023

Adjusted EBITDA	$	973,642		$	850,384		$	2,061,002		$	1,260,302

For the period six months and three months ended June 30, 2024, our EBITDA income improved primarily as a result of decrease in General and Administrative expenses. This reduction was driven by lower investment hosting fees, decreased amortization and depreciation expenses, and reduced business insurance costs. Additionally, there were decreases in compensation, employee benefits, marketing expenses, and other insurance costs. These factors contributing to our financial performance are further discussed in the “Discussion of our Results of Operations” section below. Other adjustments include estimated future credit losses not yet realized, including amounts indemnified to PCCU for loans funded by them. The Company has entered into a Commercial Alliance Agreement with PCCU, pursuant to which the Company agreed to indemnify PCCU for claims associated with CRB activities including any loan default related losses for loans funded by PCCU. Deferred loan origination fees and costs represent the change in net deferred loan origination fees and costs. When included with a new loan origination, we receive an upfront loan origination fee in conjunction with new loans funded by our financial institution partners and incur costs associated with originating a specific loan. For accounting purposes, the cash received for loan origination fees and costs is initially deferred and recognized as interest income utilizing the interest method.

Other Metrics

For our business operations, we monitor the following key metrics.

Total account balances, number of accounts and average account balances

Our lending capacity is dependent on the size of our managed deposit base and number of active accounts. In addition, fees are generated based on open accounts and account activity. We monitor account activity including deposits, withdrawals and ending account balance daily. Total account balances represent the balance of onboarded and monitored deposits on hand at financial institution clients at period end. Average account balance represents the total account balance divided by the number of accounts at the period end.

Account fees per average active accounts managed

Currently a significant amount of our fees is generated from account openings, active accounts and account activity. As a result, we monitor account openings and closings on a daily, weekly and monthly basis. We strive to meet the appropriate balance between depository balances and fees and therefore review account fees per average number of active accounts managed.

Refer to the below section – Discussion of Results of our Operations for additional discussion of trends.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, there was a decline in the average number of accounts and fees compared to the previous period, primarily due to a decrease in clientele following the termination of an agreement with the Central Bank. We expect this trend to shift as we lead with our lending program typically requiring borrowers to place deposits with financial institutions with which we have relationships.

We are focused on enhancing and growing our lending platform. Incremental lending key metrics will be monitored as this portion of our business grows in volume. Metrics will include average loan balance, average life to repayment, average effective interest rate and loan status, amongst others.

Components of our Results of Operations

Revenue

The Company generates interest and fee income through providing a variety of services to PCCU and other financial institutions to facilitate its banking services to CRBs including, among other things, Bank Secrecy Act and other regulatory compliance and reporting, onboarding, responding to account inquiries, responding to customer service inquiries relating to CRB deposit accounts held at financial institution clients, and sourcing and originating loans. In addition, the Company provides these similar services and outsourced support to other financial institutions providing banking to the cannabis industry.

Total Revenue	$	8,088,334	$	8,752,887		(664,553	)		(7.59	)%

Account fee income consists of deposit account fees, activity fees and onboarding income. We receive a flat fee and lower rates for ancillary accounts, which are accounts provided to businesses servicing the cannabis industry in general but do not manufacture, possess, distribute or transport cannabis.

The decrease in deposit, activity and onboarding income was primarily attributable to the decrease in the number of accounts related to the Abaca acquisition. In the six months ended June 30, 2024, PCCU accounted for $2,424,598 of the revenue generated from deposits, activities, and client onboarding. Related to this revenue, the Company recognized $277,721 in account hosting expenses, in accordance with the Commercial Alliance Agreement. In the six months ended June 30, 2023, PCCU contributed $2,763,684 to the revenue from similar sources, with account hosting expenses amounting to $116,258 as per the Loan Servicing Agreement provisions. These expenses were categorized under “General and Administrative Expenses” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company provides similar account services and outsourced support to other financial institutions providing banking services to the cannabis industry.

Under our Commercial Alliance Agreement with PCCU, we pay 25% of the investment income as a hosting fee based on this income. In the six months ended June 30, 2024, the income derived from investment income associated with PCCU totaled $1,166,663. In relation to this income, the Company incurred $277,721 in investment hosting fees, consistent with the stipulations of the Commercial Alliance Agreement. In the six months ended June 30, 2023, PCCU’s contribution to investment income amounted to $2,837,694, against which the Company recorded investment hosting fees of $704,732, as governed by the terms of the Loan Servicing Agreement. These expenses were categorized under “General and administrative expenses” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

We previously had a Loan Servicing Agreement with PCCU (related party) which has since been superseded by the Commercial Alliance Agreement. The loan interest income reflects our share of loan interest on issued loans. We are obligated to pay 0.35% on the total outstanding principal of each loan that is funded and serviced by PCCU. Loan interest earned on the Company’s direct loans and the indemnified loans grew as the Company increased its focus on lending. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, SHF serviced twenty-four loans, as compared to twelve loans in the six months ended June 30, 2023. In six months ended June 2024, the Company recognized $3,472,848 in loan interest income attributable to PCCU activities. The related expenses for this income included $72,057 in loan servicing fees, in compliance with both the Loan Servicing Agreement and the Commercial Alliance Agreement. In six months ended June 2023, loan interest income from PCCU operations amounted to $1,071,124, with associated loan servicing fees totaling $28,670, pursuant to the same agreements.

Compensation and employee benefits decreased in the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023 on account of stock-based compensation and the decrease in the headcount.

Rent expenses decreased in the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023 due to reduction in the number of lease properties.

(Benefit)/ Provision for credit losses decreased in the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023 due to a decrease in the loss rate.

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, general and administrative expenses decreased across various categories including: i) approximately $345,271 in investment hosting fees due to a reduction in investment income , and (ii) approximately $206,560 in amortization and depreciation due to the reduction in the gross value of intangible assets from impairment recorded in 2023.

Financial Condition

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $6,111,982 and $4,888,769 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Cash flows

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company generated $2,704,637 in cash from operations, compared to cash used of $964,786 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This improvement was mainly due to lower operating expenses and the greater number of performing loans at better interest rates than the previous period.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company generated $6,083 in cash from investing activities, compared to $813,686 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to the repayment of loans by customers in the previous period.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company used $1,487,507 in cash for financing activities, compared to zero cash flow in the corresponding period of 2023. This was mainly due to the repayments on the senior secured promissory note during 2024, which was not in place during the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Liquidity and going concern

Liquidity refers to our capacity to fulfill anticipated cash demands, encompassing obligations to settle debt, sustain assets and operations, distribute earnings to shareholders, and cover other typical business expenditures. Our cash outflows predominantly settle towards repaying debt principal and interest, distributing dividends to shareholders, and financing our operational activities. The main contributors to our liquidity are the cash inflows from our operational performance. As of June 30, 2024, the Company reports no significant commitments to capital investments.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had $6,111,982 in cash and net working capital of $301,738, as compared to $4,888,769 in cash and net working capital deficit of $135,355 as at December 31, 2023. The retained deficit was $69,444,867 on June 30, 2024, and $71,569,821 on December 31, 2023. The Company has also generated operating income of $300,163 and $625,104 for the three months and six months period ended June 30, 2024.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company reported positive operating income and net working capital. However, considering the historical data from the four preceding quarters, where the Company experienced negative operating income and negative net working capital, management acknowledges the need to closely evaluate the financial performance in upcoming quarters to mitigate any going concern risks. As of June 30, 2024, due to these historical trends, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for at least twelve months from the date these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were issued.

Critical Accounting Estimates

As of June 30, 2024, there were no significant changes in the application or the nature of accounting estimates that are considered critical in nature from those presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Emerging Growth Company Status

We are an “emerging growth company,” or “EGC,” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). As such, we are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies,” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an EGC can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act, for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an EGC can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We intend to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period, for as long as it is available. We will remain an EGC until the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of our common equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act (June 23, 2026) or (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, (2) the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, and (3) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period. References herein to “emerging growth company” have the meaning provided in the JOBS Act.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In connection with our management assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company has identified two (2) material weaknesses within our internal controls associated with Revenue Recognition and Complex Financial Instruments. Refer to Item 4 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional details.

Related Party Relationships

Account Servicing Agreement

The Company had an Account Servicing Agreement with PCCU. SHF provides services as per the agreement to CRB accounts at PCCU. In addition to providing the services, SHF assumed the costs associated with the CRB accounts. These costs include employees to manage account onboarding, monitoring and compliance, rent and office expense, insurance and other operating expenses necessary to service these accounts. Under the agreement, PCCU agreed to pay SHF all revenue generated from CRB accounts. Amounts due to SHF were due monthly in arrears and upon receipt of invoice. This agreement was replaced and superseded in its entirety by Commercial Alliance Agreement entered on March 29, 2023, between PCCU and the Company.

Support Services Agreement

On July 1, 2021, SHF entered into a Support Services Agreement with PCCU. In connection with PCCU hosting the depository accounts and the related loans and providing certain infrastructure support, PCCU receives (and SHF pays) a monthly fee per depository account. In addition, 25% of any investment income associated with CRB deposits is paid to PCCU. This agreement was replaced and superseded in its entirety by Commercial Alliance Agreement entered on March 29, 2023, between PCCU and the Company.

Effective February 11, 2022, SHF entered into a Loan Servicing Agreement with PCCU. The agreement sets forth the application, underwriting and approval process for loans from PCCU to CRB customers and the loan servicing and monitoring responsibilities provided by both PCCU and SHF. PCCU receives a monthly servicing fee at the annual rate of 0.25% of the then-outstanding principal balance of each loan funded and serviced by PCCU. For the loans that are subject to this agreement, SHF originates the loans and performs all compliance analysis, credit analysis of the potential borrower, due diligence and underwriting and all administration, including hiring and incurring the costs of all related personnel or third-party vendors necessary to perform these services. Under the Loan Servicing Agreement, SHF has agreed to indemnify PCCU from all claims related to default-related credit losses as defined in the Loan Servicing Agreement. This agreement was replaced and superseded in its entirety by Commercial Alliance Agreement entered on March 29, 2023, between PCCU and the Company.

Commercial Alliance Agreement

On March 29, 2023, the Company and PCCU entered into the Commercial Alliance Agreement. This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of the lending and account-related services, governing the relationship between the Company and PCCU. The Commercial Alliance Agreement sets forth the application, underwriting, loan approval, and foreclosure process for loans from PCCU to borrowers that are cannabis-related businesses and the loan servicing and monitoring responsibilities provided by the Company and PCCU. In particular, the Commercial Alliance Agreement provides for procedures to be followed upon the default of a loan to ensure that neither the Company nor PCCU will take title to or possession of any cannabis-related assets, including real property, that may be collateral for a loan funded by PCCU pursuant to the Commercial Alliance Agreement. Under the Commercial Alliance agreement, the PCCU has the right to receive monthly fees for managing loans. For SHF-serviced loans, which are CRB loans provided by the PCCU but primarily handled by SHF, a yearly fee of 0.25% of the remaining loan balance is applied. On the other hand, loans both financed and serviced by the PCCU are charged a yearly fee of 0.35% on their outstanding balance. These fees are calculated using the average daily balance of each loan for the preceding month. In addition, the Company’s is obligated by the Commercial Alliance Agreement to indemnify PCCU from certain default-related loan losses (as fully defined in the Commercial Alliance Agreement).

The below schedule demonstrates the ratio of CRB related loans funded by PCCU to the relative lending limits:

	June 30, 2024 (Unaudited)			December 31, 2023 (Unaudited)
CRB related deposits	$	90,562,105		$	129,350,998
Capacity at 60%		54,337,263			77,610,599

Capacity at 1.3125		109,330,526			106,670,306
Limiting capacity		54,337,263			77,610,599
PCCU loans funded		54,209,933			55,660,039
Amounts available under lines of credit		750,000			525,000
Incremental capacity*	$	(622,670	)	$	21,425,560

* If the loans funded by PCCU exceed the limiting capacity, the CAA specifies that PCCU will be unable to fund additional loans until the incremental capacity is positive.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

The Company is a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and is not required to provide the information otherwise required with respect to market risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2024 due to the material weaknesses described below. In light of these material weaknesses, we performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our unaudited interim financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of disclosure controls and procedures also is based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Prior to March 31, 2024, the Company has the following material weakness outstanding which we consider remediated as of and during the period ended March 31, 2024:

Credit Losses: As of March 31, 2023, the Company did not update its provision for credit losses correctly. The initial shortcomings included a lack of supportive documentation for the model used in our calculations and an error in applying the modified retrospective adoption method. Specifically, adjustments were made through the Consolidated Statements of Operations instead of the Consolidated Stockholders’ Equity on January 1, 2023. To address this material weakness, from June 30, 2023, to December 31, 2023, the Company improved the documentation for its allowance model. Additionally, a robust quarterly process was established, featuring enhanced management review controls for performing and reviewing the Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) calculations. These processes and calculations are now regularly reviewed by senior management, ensuring accuracy in documentation and disclosures. On March 31, 2024, these corrective actions successfully remediated the identified material weakness.

We consider the following material weaknesses to be outstanding as of June 30, 2024:

Revenue Recognition: During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, the Company’s revenue was earned through certain related party contracts with PCCU that define contractually the revenue earned by the Company from PCCU for account servicing. The Company has identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to the need to enhance the design and operating effectiveness of internal controls over the review of revenue recognition from allocations that occurs on a monthly basis between the Company and PCCU.

To remediate this material weakness, the Company has implemented a monthly process with enhanced management review controls to perform and review revenue recognition. The analysis and disclosures are assessed by senior management of the Company performing review of the documentation and disclosures.

Complex Financial Instruments: During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, the Company had a material weakness with regard to the ineffectiveness in management review controls of the accounting, disclosure and valuation of complex financial instruments (warrants, deferred consideration, forward purchase agreement, and stock-based compensation).

To remediate this material weakness, the Company has implemented a quarterly process with enhanced management review controls to perform and review complex financial instruments. The analysis and disclosures are assessed by senior management of the Company performing review of the documentation and disclosures.

With the implementation of our remediation plans for each material weakness, we believe, in subsequent periods, these material weaknesses can be remediated.

We plan to continue to assess and improve our internal controls and procedures and to take further action as necessary or appropriate to address any other matters we identify.

Completion of remediation does not provide assurance that our remediation or other controls will continue to operate properly. A failure to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting could result in errors in its financial statements that could require the Company to restate past financial statements, cause the Company to fail to meet its reporting obligations and cause investors to lose confidence in the Company’s reported financial information, all of which could materially and adversely affect the Company.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Other than as noted above in the June 30, 2024 material weaknesses, there was no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2024 covered by this Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The Company’s management has expended, and will continue to expend, a substantial amount of effort and resources for their mediation of the material weaknesses and improvement of our internal control over financial reporting. While we have processes to properly identify and evaluate the appropriate accounting technical pronouncements and other literature for all significant or unusual transactions, we have expanded and will continue to improve these processes to ensure that the nuances of such transactions are effectively evaluated in the context of the increasingly complex accounting standards.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we may be subject to various other legal proceedings and claims that are routine and incidental to our business. Although some of the legal proceedings set forth herein may result in adverse decisions or settlements, Management believes that the final disposition of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
