NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS, GOING CONCERN AND MANAGEMENT’S PLANS
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Hangover Joe’s Holding Corporation and its subsidiary Hangover Joe’s, Inc.  (Collectively referred to as, the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to quarterly reports on Form 10-Q. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and changes in financial position at March 31, 2014, and for all periods presented, have been made. Certain information and footnote data necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is therefore suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the summary of significant accounting policies and notes to financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. The results of operations for the period ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily an indication of operating results for the full year.

Description of Business

The Company sells an all-natural, two-ounce beverage, formulated to help relieve the symptoms associated with alcohol induced hangovers – the Hangover Recovery Shot. The Hangover Recovery Shot is an officially licensed product of The Hangover movie series from Warner Brothers. The Company has sold its products primarily to convenience stores, liquor stores, and grocery stores through distribution agreements, as well as through online internet sales.
 
Going Concern and Management’s plans

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company reported a net loss of approximately $436,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2014, and a working capital deficiency and accumulated deficit of approximately $2,615,000 and $5,089,000, respectively, at March 31, 2014. The Company has a limited operating history and has not generated any significant sales since the end of the second quarter of 2013, and it has relied primarily on debt financing and private placements of its common stock to fund its operations. Due to a lack of liquidity, the Company has had difficulty in paying its obligations and is in default on its revolving credit facility (Note 3), and the Company cannot provide any assurance it will be able to remedy the default or be able to raise funds through a future issuance of debt or equity to carry out its business plan. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets, or the amounts or classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.
 
Management has pursued and intends to continue to pursue debt and/or equity financing arrangements with potential investors in order to obtain sufficient working capital necessary to carry out its business plan (Notes 3 and 9).  The Company has also taken steps to minimize costs, and has continued to explore various business opportunities.
 
In December 2013, the Company announced the signing of a distribution contract for the sale of Hangover Joes Recovery Shots in Japan, in which management believes the Company may be able to distribute its recovery shots through up to 8,600 drug and food stores; however, the Company is waiting on Japanese regulatory approval necessary to distribute under this agreement. In addition, in January 2014, the Company entered into an agreement with Git-R-Done Productions, Inc., which allows the Company to launch a new non-caffeinated, all natural healthy energy shot, Git-R-Done-Energy. The launch of this new product is planned for the Spring / Summer of 2014 (Notes 2 and 6).
 
The Company is also pursuing additional opportunities, but there can be no assurance that any existing or contemplated plans will materialize, and fulfilling any such existing or contemplated contracts will require significant marketing support and additional capital, of which there can be no assurance the Company will be able to raise funds sufficient to continue with the Company’s business plan.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 
Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hangover Joe’s Holding Corporation and its 100%-owned subsidiary, Hangover Joe’s, Inc. All intercompany accounts, transactions, and profits are eliminated in consolidation.

License and Royalties

The Company has a license with Warner Bros. Consumer Products, Inc. (“WBCP”) that allows the Company the use of the costumes, artwork, logos and other elements depicted in the 2009 movie, The Hangover. This license, as amended, expires January 31, 2016. In January 2014, the Company entered into an initial two-year license agreement with Git-R-Done Productions, Inc. (the “Larry the Cable Guy” license), which also allows the Company the rights to the use of certain artwork, logos and other elements used by the Comedian known as “Larry the Cable Guy”. The terms of the WBCP and Larry the Cable Guy licenses provide for royalties based on a percentage of products sold, as defined, subject to agreed-upon guaranteed minimum royalties (Note 6). Guaranteed minimum royalty payments are made periodically over the term of the license and are recorded when paid as an asset in the balance sheet. The asset is amortized to expense as revenues from related products are sold. If management determines that all or any part of the minimum guaranteed amounts appear unlikely to be recovered through future product sales, the non-recoverable portion is charged to the period in which such determination is made.

Revenue Recognition

The Company sells its product primarily through third-party distributors. The Company is not guaranteed any minimum level of sales or transactions. The Company also offers its products for sale through its website at www.hangoverjoes.com. All sales made in the quarter ended March 31, 2014, represent website-generated sales.

The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following have occurred: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery to third party distributors and consumers via the Company’s website has occurred; (3) the sales price is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Delivery is not considered to have occurred until the title and the risk of loss passes to the customer according to the terms of the contract between the Company and the customer. For sales to distributors, revenue is usually recognized at the time of delivery. The Company defers revenues on products sold to distributors for which there is a lack of credit history or if the distribution may be in a new market in which the Company has no prior experience. The Company defers revenue in these situations until cash is received. For sales through the Company’s website, revenue is recognized at time of shipment.

Management evaluates the terms of its sales in consideration of the criteria outlined in Principal Agent Consideration with regards to its determination of gross versus net reporting of revenue for transactions with customers. The Company sells, through its website, Hangover Joe’s Recovery Shots. In these transactions, management has determined that the Company (i) acts as principal; (ii) has the risks and rewards of ownership, including the risk of loss for collection, delivery or returns; and (iii) has latitude in establishing price with the customer. For these transactions, the Company recognizes revenue on a gross basis.

The Company offers a variety of incentives and discounts to distributors, customers and consumers through various programs to support the distribution of its products. These incentives and discounts include cash discounts, price allowances, volume based rebates and product placement fees. These incentives and discounts are reflected as a reduction of gross sales to arrive at net sales. The aggregate deductions from gross sales recorded in relation to these programs were $0 and approximately $3,500 for the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold consists of the costs of raw materials utilized in the production of its product, co-packing fees, and in-bound freight charges. Raw material costs account for the largest portion of the cost of goods sold. Raw materials include bottles, ingredients and packaging materials. The manufacturer is responsible for the ingredients. Costs of goods sold also include license and royalty expenses. Cost of goods sold for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 consisted solely of royalty-related expense, as the inventory sold during the quarter represented remaining product held for samples, which had been fully allowed for in 2013.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
 

 
Convertible Securities

Based upon ASC 840-15-25, the Company has adopted a sequencing approach regarding the application of ASC 815-40 to its outstanding convertible securities. Pursuant to the sequencing approach, the Company evaluates its contracts based upon earliest issuance date.  Accordingly, in the event partial reclassification of contracts subject to ASC 815-40-25 is necessary, due to the Company's inability to demonstrate it has sufficient shares authorized, shares will be allocated on the basis of issuance date, with the earliest issuance date receiving first allocation of shares.  If a reclassification of an instrument were required, it would result in the instrument issued latest being reclassified first.
 
Net Loss per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Historical loss per share of the accounting acquirer (HOJ) has been adjusted retroactively to reflect the new capital structure of the Company as a result of the Merger Agreement. Diluted net loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Company, unless the effect of such inclusion would reduce a loss or increase earnings per share. For each of the periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the effect of the inclusion of dilutive shares would have resulted in a decrease in loss per share. Stock options, warrants, common shares underlying convertible preferred stock and convertible notes payable in the aggregate of 41,208,623 and 9,090,962 shares as of and for the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 , respectively, were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share because the effect would have been anti-dilutive.
  
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. Management has not identified any recently issued accounting standards that it believes will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
 
NOTE 3 – DEBT
 
Revolving credit facility

On January 10, 2013, the Company entered into a senior secured lending arrangement with TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP (“TCA”) for up to a maximum borrowing of $6,000,000. The credit facility provided for an initial line of credit of $425,000 based upon accounts receivable and projected sales and is to be used only as permitted under the specified use of proceeds for working capital purposes. The initial line of credit had a six month term from the date of closing with a six month renewal option. The lending arrangement is secured by all of the assets of the Company. As a partial guaranty under the TCA lending arrangement, the Company’s CEO personally guaranteed certain representations made by the Company to TCA. At closing, the Company was advanced $425,000 less fees and closing costs.

In connection with the agreement above, TCA charged an investment banking fee consisting of 125,000 shares of newly authorized Series B Preferred Shares of the Company equating to an aggregate of $125,000 in the Company’s capital stock. The shares are mandatorily redeemable and were scheduled to be repaid in 2013. Also in connection with the TCA agreement, the Company issued 194,954 shares of common stock to a consulting firm as consideration for a finder’s fee for this transaction.

The Company is in default in its agreement with TCA (Note 6).
 
Mandatorily Redeemable Series B Preferred Stock
 
On January 10, 2013, the Board of Directors approved the authorization of 125,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”). In connection with the TCA transaction, the Company issued 125,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock to TCA. The Series B Preferred Stock ranks pari passu to the Company’s common stock. The Holder of outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to notice of any shareholders’ meeting and to vote as a single class with the Common Stock upon any matter submitted for approval by the holders of common stock. Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall have one vote per share. All outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock will be entitled to be paid the “Liquidation Preference,” which is defined and calculated as follows: $125,000 in the aggregate (not on a per share basis), payable monthly at various amounts, and due in full by virtue of the TCA default discussed above. In 2013, $57,500 was applied to the mandatorily redeemable Series B preferred stock, and the remaining balance of $67,500 is presented as a current liability in the accompanying March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 balance sheets.

NOTE 3 – DEBT (CONTINUED)

Convertible Promissory Notes
 
JMJ Note
 
In June 2013, the Company closed on a 12%, 12-month convertible promissory note with JMJ Financial (“JMJ”) (the “JMJ Note”). The face amount of the JMJ Note reflects a principal sum of $500,000, with total borrowings that may be available of $450,000 (which is net of a 10% original issue discount). Upon closing of the JMJ Note, the Company received $100,000 from JMJ. In September 2013, the Company received an additional $25,000 from JMJ.

JMJ has the right, at its election, to convert all or part of the outstanding and unpaid principal sum and accrued interest (and any other fees) into shares of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of the Company. The conversion price is the lesser of $0.05 or 70% of the average of the three lowest closing prices in the 25 trading days previous to the conversion.
 
The Note is subject to various default provisions, and the occurrence of such an event of default will cause the outstanding principal amount under the JMJ Note, together with accrued and unpaid interest, and all other amounts payable under the JMJ Note, to become, at JMJ’s election, immediately due and payable to JMJ.

The Company determined a beneficial conversion feature existed at the commitment date. A beneficial conversion feature of approximately $32,000 was recorded as a discount to the note and has been amortized over the term of the loan. The unamortized debt discount recorded at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $12,500 and $14,800, respectively. The JMJ note has an effective interest rate of approximately 34%.  During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, JMJ exercised its option to convert approximately $47,000 of the obligation into 6,000,000 common shares of the Company.
 
JSJ Notes

In December 2013, the Company received $25,000 from JSJ Investments Inc. (“JSJ”) in exchange for a $25,000 convertible note (the “JSJ Note”). This note bears interest at 12% per annum and matured on May 19, 2014. On or after the maturity date, any unpaid amounts and accrued interest are convertible by the holder, at the holder’s discretion, into shares of the Company’s common stock. The conversion price is at 50% discount of the average of the three lowest closing prices on the previous ten days, with a maximum conversion price equal to the price if determined on the note execution date.

In March 2014, the Company entered into second convertible note with JSJ in exchange for $50,000. This note also bears interest at 12% per annum and matures in September 2014, with conversion terms similar to the December 2013 note.
 
The JSJ notes are subject to various default provisions, and the occurrence of such an event of default will cause the outstanding principal and interest to become immediately due and payable to JSJ.

The Company determined a beneficial conversion feature existed at the commitment date for both notes. A beneficial conversion feature of approximately $10,000 was recorded as a discount to the first note and a beneficial conversion feature of $22,500 was recorded as a discount to the second note and both are being amortized over the term of the loans. The unamortized debt discount recorded at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $7,500 and $12,500, respectively.

Investor Relations Agreement

In February 2013, the Company entered into an investor relations agreement with a firm which required the Company to pay a consulting fee of $2,500 per month and to provide 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock per month and warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock per month. Based on the terms of the agreement, the Company determined that the measurement date of the shares to be issued is on the dates that the shares are earned, which is monthly. Total compensation expense under this agreement for the year ended 2013 was $37,000 (none in the quarter ended March 31, 2014). As the shares of common stock issuable under this agreement have not been issued as of December 31, 2013 or March 31, 2014, the Company has recorded an accrued expense of $37,000 on the consolidated balance sheet until such shares are issued.
 
NOTE 5 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Promissory note payable, related party

The Chairman of the Company’s board of directors has advanced funds to the Company from time to time for working capital. As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, amounts payable to this individual were $89,422. These advances were previously non-interest bearing, unsecured, and due on demand. On March 1, 2013, the Company converted the outstanding advance amount of $89,422 into a promissory note, and this individual advanced an additional $27,000 to the Company in January, 2014. Interest at the rate of 5.5% per annum is compounded and charged annually. Principal payments in the amount of $14,966 and accrued interest were to be paid in six installments, with the first payment due on June 15, 2013. No payments have been made through March 31, 2014. Interest expense on this note as of and for the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was approximately $2,000 and $1,300, respectively.

Strategic Consulting Agreement, related party

In November 2012, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with The Bricktown Group (“Bricktown”) to provide beverage management and strategic advisory consulting services to the Company. The managing partner of Bricktown was appointed as the Company’s Chief Operating Officer (COO) in March 2013, and served as the Company’s COO until August 6, 2013. This consulting agreement had an initial term of six months and was automatically extended through November 2013. The agreement required the Company to pay an upfront retainer of $10,000 and monthly consulting fees of $10,000 per month, which was to be deferred until the Company raised at least $300,000 in debt or equity. The Company was to issue 3,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock in two tranches, of which 1,500,000 shares were issuable upon request after January 4, 2013 and 1,500,000 shares were issuable on March l, 2013. The first 1,500,000 shares are non-forfeitable and fully vested on the date of the agreement.

Based upon the terms of the agreement, the Company determined that the measurement date for the initial 1,500,000 shares to be issued under the agreement is the contract date and calculated a fair value of $225,000 based upon the closing market price on this date. Accordingly, the Company recorded an accrued consulting cost liability of $225,000 on the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2012 until such shares are issued. The stock-based compensation associated with the initial shares of $225,000 was recorded as prepaid consulting costs and was amortized over the initial three months of this agreement. For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company recognized consulting expense of $278,616 related to this agreement. The measurement date for the second tranche of 1,500,000 shares was March 1, 2013. The fair value of these shares of $135,000 was determined based upon the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on this date and was amortized over the remaining term of the contract. On January 10, 2013, the Company issued the initial 1,500,000 shares of its common stock to Bricktown. The second tranche of shares have not been issued as of March 31, 2014, and therefore a liability of $135,000 has been included within accrued consulting costs in accrued expenses.

As of March 31, 2014, the Company has an additional amount of approximately $55,100 to Bricktown in notes payable and other-related party.

NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

WBCP License Agreement

The Company has a license with WBCP that allows the Company the use of the costumes, artwork, logos and other elements depicted in the 2009 movie, The Hangover. This license had an initial term through January 31, 2013 and provides for certain royalties based on a percentage of products sold subject to certain agreed-upon guaranteed minimum royalty payments over the term of the license.

In January 2013, the Company entered into an extension of its product license agreement with WBCP extending the term of the agreement to January 31, 2016. Further, the extension added certain channels of distribution and requires the Company to pay $200,000 of Guaranteed Consideration, as defined, over a period of time. Pursuant to the agreement, $75,000 of Guaranteed Consideration was paid in January 2013, and $50,000 was due on October 1, 2013, of which $20,000 was paid in 2013, and the remaining $30,000 was paid in January 2014. On or before October 1, 2014, the Company is to pay Guaranteed Consideration of $50,000, and the remaining $25,000 is to be paid on or before October 1, 2015.
 
The Company accrued the remaining guaranteed minimum royalty payments of $75,000 at December 31, 2013 in accrued liabilities.  Management evaluated the recoverability of prepaid guaranteed minimum royalty payments and determined that recoverability over the contract term was not likely, and expensed the full amount in selling and marketing expense as of December 31, 2013.

The terms of the license agreement provided that the Company was to fully launch its product line by March 1, 2014; the Company has not yet launched its products pursuant to the terms of this license agreement, and therefore the Company is not in compliance with their terms of the license agreement, which subjects the Company to cancellation by the licensor. The Company has not received any notice of cancellation, and the Company is planning a product launch by spring/summer of 2014; however, there can be no assurance that such a successful launch will occur as planned. Pursuant to the agreement, $30,000 of Guaranteed Consideration was paid in January 2014, with a payment of $20,000 due on September 30, 2014, and $50,000 due on December 31, 2014.
 
The Company accrued the remaining guaranteed minimum royalty payments of $70,000 at March 31, 2014 in accrued liabilities.  Management evaluated the recoverability of prepaid guaranteed minimum royalty payments and determined that recoverability over the contract term was not likely, and expensed the full amount in selling and marketing expense as of March 31, 2014.

Litigation

The Company has been engaged in settlement discussions with TCA,  however an agreement has not been reached. If the case is not disposed, and proceeds, the Company intends to vigorously defend the matter.

On February 7, 2014, a former contractor of the Company filed suit against the Company for an unpaid account. The plaintiff is seeking approximately $65,000 from the Company. Subsequently, the Company filed a counter suit against the former contractor and two of its officers alleging breach of contract, fraud and racketeering. Discovery is not complete in these cases, and at this time, the Company cannot determine the likelihood of an outcome or a range of possible damages. The Company intends to vigorously defend the lawsuit and prosecute its cause of action.

In exchange, the Company agreed to issue Series D preferred stock or to reissue common shares to this shareholder upon the Company increasing the number of its authorized common shares. No shares of Series D preferred stock have been issued, as the Company does not have a sufficient number of Series D authorized shares available to fully exchange for the number of equivalent common shares forfeited. As a result, a liability has been recorded at March 31, 2014 to reflect the obligation for future issuance of shares.

Dissenting Shareholder

NOTE 7 – STOCKHOLDERS’ DEFICIT (CONTINUED)

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model. Expected volatility is based upon weighted average of historical volatility over the expected term of the option and implied volatility. The expected term of stock options is based upon historical exercise behavior and expected exercised behavior. The risk-free interest rate is based upon implied yield on a U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issue with a remaining term equal to the expected term of the option. The dividend yield is assumed to be none as the Company does not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future.

In April 2012, the Company granted a warrant to a sales consultant and director of the Company to purchase up to 6,129,528 shares of common stock in connection with a two-year service agreement. This warrant has a three-year term and an exercise price of $0.0326 per share with 3,064,764 shares vesting each on January 1, 2013 and January 1, 2014 if the Company’s sales exceeded certain thresholds in 2012 and 2013, respectively. On January 1, 2013, the board of directors concluded the sales target for 2012 was not met and warrants to purchase 3,064,764 shares of Company common stock were cancelled. Management has evaluated the performance criteria and sales thresholds for 2013 were not met and accordingly no stock-based compensation has been recognized and warrants to purchase 3,064,764 shares of Company common stock were cancelled.

In February and March 2013, the Company granted a warrant to an investor relations firm to purchase up to 150,000 shares of common stock that vested immediately. The warrants have a three-year term and an exercise price of $0.11 and $.09 per share, and $0 and $11,574 of stock based compensation related to this warrant and is recorded in general and administrative expenses during the quarter ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

In January, 2014, the Company issued 5,000,000 shares to an investor under a consulting arrangement. The shares were valued $.02 per shares, and the services were valued at $10,000, accordingly.

NOTE 8 – INCOME TAXES

Deferred tax assets and liabilities have been determined based upon the differences between the financial statement amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Net operating loss (“NOL”) carry forwards are the most significant component of the Company’s deferred tax assets; however, the ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon generation of future taxable income. Management considers past history, the scheduled reversal of taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Utilization of our NOL carry forwards would reduce our federal and state income tax liability incurred. Based on management’s assessment, a 100% valuation allowance is recorded at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
 
The provision (benefit) for income taxes is recorded at the end of each interim period based on the Company’s best estimate of its effective income tax rate, expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year.  For the first quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company did not record any income tax benefit due to the recognition of a full valuation allowance.
 
NOTE 9 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 
On May 14, 2014, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with KBM Worldwide, Inc. ("KBM"), for the sale of an 8% convertible note in the principal amount of $29,000 (the "KBM note"). This Note bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum. All interest and principal must be repaid on February 9, 2015. The Note is convertible into common stock, at KBM’s option, at a 45% discount to the average of the three lowest closing bid prices of the Company’s common stock during the 10 trading day period prior to conversion.

The KBM note is subject to prepayment penalties up to a 140% multiple of the principal, interest and other amounts owing, as defined. KBM has agreed to restrict its ability to convert the Note and receive shares of common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by them in the aggregate and their affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 9.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The total net proceeds the Company received from this Offering were $28,500, less financing costs of $500.

These statements are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections about the industry in which the Company operates and the beliefs and assumptions of the Company’s management. Words such as “hopes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “targets,” “goals,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” “continues,” “may,” variations of such words, and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. In addition, any statements that refer to projections of the Company’s future financial performance, including projections under our licensing and distribution arrangements, the Company’s anticipated growth potential in its business, and other characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned that these forward-looking statements are only predictions and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and assumptions that are difficult to predict, including those identified under “Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.  Therefore, actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements.   
The Company is under no duty to update any of these forward-looking statements after the date of this report. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

Background

The term the “Company” as used herein is intended to refer to the Hangover Joes Holding Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary, Hangover Joes Inc. The Company has a limited operating history and there will be limited continuing impact regarding these operations, and the Company cannot provide any assurance it will be able to raise funds through a future issuance of equity or debt to carry out its business plan.

Plan of Operation

The Company sells an all-natural, two-ounce beverage, formulated to help relieve the symptoms associated with alcohol induced hangovers – the Hangover Recovery Shot. The Hangover Recovery Shot is also an officially licensed product of The Hangover movie series from Warner Brothers.  The Company has registered the trademark “Hangover Joe’s Get Up & Go” with the U.S. Patent and Trademark office. The assets consist of intellectual property relating to Hangover Joe’s Recovery Shot, including but not limited to a license agreement dated July 19, 2011, between the LLC and Warner Bros. Consumer Products, Inc.  The license agreement permits HOJ to use the character names, costumes, artwork logos, and other elements depicted in the 2009 movie “The Hangover” during the term of the license agreement, which expired January 31, 2013.  The Company then negotiated an extension to this license agreement through January, 2016.

The Company sells its products primarily to convenience stores, liquor stores and grocery stores through distribution agreements, as well as through online internet sales. The Company began selling its products in February 2011. HOJ is actively seeking to expand the distribution of its product, the Hangover Joe’s Recovery Shot, and an additional energy shot,
Larry the Cable Guy’s Git-R-Done energy shot was added to our product line during the quarter.

Results of Operations

The Company’s operations have been greatly curtailed for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2013 due to its lawsuit with TCA and sales has been limited to small orders from our website while we reorganize our finances.  

Three Months Ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013

For the three months ended March 31, 2013, we experienced a consolidated net loss of $436,000 compared to a consolidated net loss of $707,000 during the comparable period last year.  Net sales and gross profits decreased $164,000 or 99% and $61,000 or 99%, respectively from the comparable period last year.  These decreases were offset by a $321,000 decrease in general and administrative expenses from the comparable period last year.

Net Sales

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company generated approximately $1,000 in net sales compared to $166,000 in net sales in the comparable period last year.  The $165,000 or 99% increase from the comparable period last year was primarily due to inability to ship orders to new distribution partners we had generated in the last two years due to the TCA lawsuit.  The Company is working vigorously to settle the lawsuit, raise capital and has targeted a list of major customers it intends to pursue or bring back, but there is no assurance we can accomplish all of part of these plans.
 
Cost of Goods Sold

Cost of goods sold, which includes product costs, packaging materials, and product royalties, decreased in the aggregate from $104,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 as compared to $83 for the same period this year.  As a percentage of sales, cost of sales decreased from 63% of sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 to 8% for the quarter ended March 31, 2014.  This decrease represented skewed amounts from selling inventory that had been written off to a nominal value.

Gross Profit

During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Company realized a gross profit of $61,000 or 37% of net sales, for the quarter ended March 31, 2014, net sales were a $1,000, which consisted solely of internet sales.  Cost of goods sold of $83 represented royalty related costs, as the inventory sold consisted of remaining samples which has been fully allowed for in 2013.   

Sales & Marketing Costs

Sales & marketing costs increased $4,000 or 2% to $188,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 as compared to $184,000 for the comparable period last year.  This increase was primarily due to increased royalties, offset by decreased sales salaries and consulting expense, trade shows, and graphic design costs in this area, as explained by the factors discussed above. We believe the $130,000 of minimum royalties incurred this quarter will eventually restore our sales level to prior years or higher, but we are still early in the product launch process and have several obstacles to overcome before we can confirm this belief.

General & Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses decreased $322,000 or 70% to $140,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 as compared to $462,000 for the same period last year.  The decrease was due to either intentionally curtailing or simply being unable to incur charges due to our financial condition.

Material Changes in Financial Condition; Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2014, have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  The Report of our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on the Company’s consolidated financial statement as of and for the year ended December 31, 2013, and the three months ended March 31, 2014 includes a “going concern” explanatory paragraph which means that the auditors stated that conditions exist that raise doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Cash Flows
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we used proceeds from the borrowing of approximately $238,000 to fund our operations whereas during the comparable period in 2013, when we used borrowings from our credit facility, net of repayment of other obligations, of $227,000 to fund our operations.   Cash as of March 31, 2014 was $59,000 as compared to $3,000 at December 31, 2013.

Cash flows used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $182,000 as compared to $211,000 for the comparable period last year. This increase in cash used in operations was primarily due to the financial issues discussed above.

Cash flows provided by investing activities were zero for both the three months ended March 31, 2013 and the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Cash flow provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $238,000 compared to cash used of $19,000 for the comparable period last year. This was due to the above referenced net borrowings under the credit facility in 2013 discussed above offset by amounts paid off on other inventory credit arrangement.

Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2014, we had cash and cash on hand of $59,000 and a working capital deficit of $2,615,000 as compared to cash and cash on hand of $3,000 and working capital deficit of $2,638,000 as of December 31, 2013. The improvement in our liquidity and working capital were primarily the result of a settlement of stock subscriptions by issuing shares to an investor in the quarter ended March 31, 2014.

Although the Company has generated revenue through the sale of its products, the Company’s cash flow has not been sufficient to cover its operating expenses and the Company has had to rely upon proceeds from borrowings and from the sale of common stock through private placements to fund its operations.  During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company received gross proceeds of $238,000 under its various borrowings.   We anticipate that we will need to rely on sales of our securities in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to our existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will be able to complete any additional sales of our equity securities or that we will be able arrange for other financing to fund our planned business activities. If we are unable to fund future operations by way of financing, including public or private offerings of equity or debt securities, our business, financial condition and operating activities will be adversely impacted.

 Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, net sales or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our shareholders.

The Company reviews new accounting standards as issued. Management has not identified any recently issued accounting standards that it believes will have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

There have been no changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies in the three months ended March 31, 2014, from those contained in the Company’s 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
