NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

November 30, 2024

(Unaudited)

Note 1: Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

These financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and are expressed in US dollars. The Company has adopted a fiscal year end of May 31st.

Principals of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CLS Holdings USA, Inc.; its direct and indirect wholly owned operating subsidiaries, CLS Nevada, Inc., ("CLS Nevada"), CLS Labs, Inc. ("CLS Labs"), CLS Labs Colorado, Inc. ("CLS Colorado"), CLS Massachusetts, Inc. ("CLS Massachusetts"), and Alternative Solutions, LLC ("Alternative Solutions"); and wholly owned inactive subsidiaries CLS Labs Colorado, Inc. ("CLS Colorado") and CLS Massachusetts, Inc. ("CLS Massachusetts"). Alternative Solutions is the sole owner of the following three entities (collectively, the "Oasis LLCs"): Serenity Wellness Center, LLC ("Serenity Wellness Center"); Serenity Wellness Products, LLC ("Serenity Wellness Products"); and Serenity Wellness Growers, LLC ("Serenity Wellness Growers"). The accompanying consolidated financial statements also include the accounts of CLS CBD in which the company owns a 95% ownership interest and a variable interest entity, Kealii Okamalu, LLC ("Kealii Okamalu"), in which the Company owns a 50% interest. All material intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation of these entities.

Nature of Business

CLS Holdings USA, Inc. (the "Company") was originally incorporated as Adelt Design, Inc. ("Adelt") on March 31, 2011 to manufacture and market carpet binding art. Production and marketing of carpet binding art never commenced.

We currently operate a retail marijuana dispensary within walking distance to the Las Vegas Strip and a small-scale cultivation facility, as well as a product manufacturing facility and a wholesale distribution operation in North Las Vegas. The vertically integrated business model drives strong margins to the bottom line on a portion of sales at the dispensary.

Our retail dispensary is a single location operation in Nevada and occupies over 5,000 square feet. This location, which is easily accessible by tourists, is currently open 19.5 hours per day for walk-in service. Curbside and in store express pick up is available between the hours of 8:00 AM and 12:00 AM. Oasis dispensary also delivers cannabis to residents between the hours of 8:00 AM and 10:00 PM. The central location provides logistical convenience for delivery to all parts of the Las Vegas valley.

Our wholesale operations, which occupies approximately 10,000 square feet of a 22,000 square foot warehouse, began sales to third parties in August 2017 and completed construction and received a certificate of occupancy for its state-of-the-art extraction facility in December of 2019. We have made sales to over 88 external customers as of November 30, 2024. Our existing product line includes vaporizers, tinctures, ethanol produced THC distillate, and live and cured hydrocarbon concentrates. At present, the City Trees cultivation facility only grows breeding stock to preserve valuable genetics and does not offer its crops for sale or processing. As a result, all raw materials for manufacturing are sourced from third parties.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassification

Certain reclassifications, not affecting previously reported net income or cash flows, have been made to the previously issued financial statements to conform to the current period presentation.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $592,584 and $600,007 as of November 30, 2024 and May 31, 2024, respectively.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company generates the majority of its revenues and corresponding accounts receivable from the sale of cannabis, and cannabis related products. The Company evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable considering a combination of factors. In circumstances where it is aware of a specific customer's inability to meet its financial obligations to it, the Company records a specific reserve for bad debts against amounts due in order to reduce the net recognized receivable to the amount it reasonably believes will be collected. For all other customers, the Company recognizes reserves for bad debts based on past write-off experience and the length of time the receivables are past due. The Company had bad debt expense of $0 and $93 during the three months ended November 30, 2024 and 2023.

Inventory

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using a perpetual inventory system whereby costs are determined by acquisition costs of individual items included in inventory. Market is determined based on net realizable value. Appropriate consideration is given to obsolescence, excessive levels, deterioration, and other factors in evaluating net realizable values. Our cannabis products consist of prepackaged purchased goods ready for resale, along with produced tinctures and extracts developed under our production license.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property and equipment is recorded at the lower of cost or estimated net recoverable amount, and is depreciated using the straight-line method over its estimated useful life. Property acquired in a business combination is recorded at estimated initial fair value. Property, plant, and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method based on the lesser of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the lease term based upon the following life expectancy:

		Years
Office equipment			3 to 5
Furniture & fixtures			3 to 7
Machinery & equipment			3 to 10
Leasehold improvements		Term of lease

Repairs and maintenance expenditures are charged to operations as incurred. Major improvements and replacements, which extend the useful life of an asset, are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining estimated useful life of the asset. When assets are retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews its property and equipment and any identifiable intangibles including goodwill for impairment on an annual basis utilizing the guidance set forth in the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board ASC 350 "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other" and ASC 360 "Property, Plant, and Equipment." At November 30, 2024, the net carrying value of goodwill on the Company's balance sheet remained at $557,896.

Employee Retention Tax Credit

Under the provisions of the extension of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act"), the Company was eligible for a refundable employee retention tax credit (the "ERTC"), subject to certain criteria. As ERTCs are not within the scope of ASC 740, Income Taxes, the Company has chosen to account for the ERTCs by analogizing to the International Standard IAS 20, Accounting/or Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance ("IAS 20"). In accordance with IAS 20, an entity recognizes government grants only when there is reasonable assurance that the entity will comply with the conditions attached to them and the grants will be received. During the three months ended November 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company received an aggregate of $50,103 and $0, respectively, and during the six months ended November 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company received an aggregate of $50,103 and $924,862, respectively; these amounts were accounted for as other income on the Company's condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Comprehensive Income

ASC 220-10-15 "Reporting Comprehensive Income," establishes standards for reporting and displaying of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, ASC 220-10-15 requires that all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in a financial statement that is displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements. The Company does not have any items of comprehensive income in any of the periods presented.

Non-Controlling Interests

The Company reports "non-controlling interest in subsidiary" as a component of equity, separate from parent's equity, on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations includes "net income (loss) attributable to non-controlling interest." There was no non-controlling interest reported during the three and six months ended November 30, 2024. During the three and six months ended November 30, 2023, the Company reported a non-controlling interest in the amount of $(92) and ($2,200), respectively, representing 50% of the income (loss) incurred by its partially owned subsidiary, Kealii Okamalu.

Variable Interest Entities

The Company's consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and variable interest entities ("VIE"), where the Company is the primary beneficiary under the provisions of ASC 810, Consolidation ("ASC 810"). A VIE must be consolidated by its primary beneficiary when, along with its affiliates and agents, the primary beneficiary has both: (i) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE's economic performance; and (ii) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive the benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company reconsiders whether an entity is still a VIE only upon certain triggering events and continually assesses its consolidated VIEs to determine if it continues to be the primary beneficiary.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts and other accounts, the balances of which at times may be uninsured or exceed federally insured limits. From time to time, some of the Company's funds are also held by escrow agents; these funds may not be federally insured. The Company continually monitors its banking relationships and consequently has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Advertising and Marketing Costs

All costs associated with advertising and promoting products are expensed as incurred. Total recognized advertising and marketing expenses were $96,709 and $103,448 for the three months ended November 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $174,710 and $227,059 for the six months ended November 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses are charged to operations as incurred. The Company incurred research and development costs of $281 and $431 for the three months ended November 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $421 and $1,887 for the six months ended November 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") No. 825-- Financial Instruments, the Company is required to estimate the fair value of all financial instruments included on its balance sheets. The carrying amounts of the Company's cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable, convertible notes payable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, none of which is held for trading, approximate their estimated fair values due to the short-term maturities of those financial instruments.

A three-tier fair value hierarchy is used to prioritize the inputs in measuring fair value as follows:

Level 1-- Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2-- Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3-- Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by market data.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from the sale of cannabis products is recognized by Oasis at the point of sale, at which time payment is received, the product is delivered, and the Company's performance obligation has been met. Management estimates an allowance for sales returns.

The Company also recognizes revenue from Serenity Wellness Products LLC and Serenity Wellness Growers LLC, d/b/a City Trees ("City Trees"). City Trees recognizes revenue from the sale of the following cannabis products and services to licensed dispensaries, cultivators and distributors within the State of Nevada:

	●	Premium organic medical cannabis sold wholesale to licensed retailers
	●	Recreational marijuana cannabis products sold wholesale to licensed distributors and retailers
	●	Extraction products such as oils and waxes derived from in-house cannabis production
	●	Processing and extraction services for licensed medical cannabis cultivators in Nevada
	●	High quality cannabis strains in the form of vegetative cuttings for sale to licensed medical cannabis cultivators in Nevada

Effective June 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from commercial sales of products and licensing agreements by applying the following steps: (1) identifying the contract with a customer; (2) identifying the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determining the transaction price; (4) allocating the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognizing revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The following table represents a disaggregation of revenue for the three and six months ended November 30, 2024 and 2023:

		For the Three			For the Three
		Months Ended			Months Ended
		November 30, 2024			November 30, 2023

		$	4,161,270			$	5,197,214

		For the Six			For the Six
		Months Ended			Months Ended
		November 30, 2024			November 30, 2023
Cannabis Dispensary			5,773,932				6,412,606

		$	8,966,435			$	10,311,741

Basic and Diluted Earnings or Loss Per Share

Basic net earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period, while fully diluted net earnings per share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potentially dilutive securities assumed to be outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive securities consist of options and warrants to purchase common stock, and convertible debt. Basic and diluted net loss per share are computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. At November 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company had the following potentially dilutive instruments outstanding: at November 30, 2024, a total of 46,300,414 shares (14,549,685 issuable upon the exercise of warrants, 23,733,229 issuable upon the conversion of convertible notes payable and accrued interest, 8,000,000 shares issuable upon the conversion of stock options, and 17,500 in stock to be issued); and at November 30, 2023, a total of 73,715,637 shares (21,181,449 issuable upon the exercise of warrants, 52,516,688 issuable upon the conversion of convertible notes payable and accrued interest, and 17,500 in stock to be issued).

The Company uses the treasury stock method to calculate the impact of outstanding stock options and warrants. Stock options and warrants for which the exercise price exceeds the average market price over the period have an anti-dilutive effect on earnings per common share and, accordingly, are excluded from the calculations.

A net loss causes all outstanding stock options and warrants to be anti-dilutive. As a result, the basic and dilutive losses per common share are the same for the three months ended November 30, 2024 and 2023. For the three months ended November 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company excluded from the calculation of fully diluted earnings per share the following instruments which were anti-dilutive: shares issuable pursuant to the conversion of notes payable and accrued interest, shares issuable pursuant to the exercise of warrants, and shares of common stock issuable.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740. The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as current and non-current based on their characteristics. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations.

Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, prohibits businesses from deducting certain expenses associated with trafficking controlled substances (within the meaning of Schedule I and II of the Controlled Substances Act). The IRS has invoked Section 280E in tax audits against various cannabis businesses in the U.S. that are permitted under applicable state laws. Although the IRS has issued a clarification allowing the deduction of certain expenses, the bulk of operating costs and general administrative costs are generally not permitted to be deducted. The operations of certain of the Company's subsidiaries are subject to Section 280E. This results in permanent differences between ordinary and necessary business expenses deemed non-deductible under IRC Section 280E. Therefore, the effective tax rate can be highly variable and may not necessarily correlate with pre-tax income or loss.

Commitments and Contingencies

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company's management and its legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company's legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims brought to such legal counsel's attention as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company's financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed.

Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the nature of the guarantee would be disclosed.

On July 26, 2019, U.S. Convertible Debenture 2 was amended such that, should the Company issue or sell common stock or equity securities convertible into common stock at a price less than the conversion price of the U.S. convertible Debenture 2, the conversion price of U.S. Convertible Debenture 2 would be reduced to such issuance price, and the exercise price of the warrant issuable in connection with U.S. Convertible Debenture 2 would be exercisable at a price equal to 137.5% of the adjusted conversion price at the time of conversion. The U.S. Convertible Debenture 2 has other features, such as mandatory conversion in the event the common stock trades at a particular price over a specified period of time and required redemption in the event of a "Change in Control" of the Company. The U.S. Convertible Debenture 2 is an unsecured obligation of the Company and ranks pari passu in right of payment of principal and interest with all other unsecured obligations of the Company.

This amendment was accounted for as an extinguishment of debt, and the Company recorded a loss in the amount of $509,700 during the year ended May 31, 2021. On September 15, 2022, the U.S. Convertible Debenture 2 was amended as follows: (i) the conversion price of debentures with a principal amount of $675,668 was reduced to $0.285 per unit, and these debentures along with accrued interest in the amount of $11,261 were converted to 2,410,279 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 1,205,140 shares of common stock; (ii) the conversion price of the remaining debentures with a principal amount of $450,446 was reduced to $0.40 per share; (iii) the maturity date of 50% of the remaining debentures with a principal amount of $225,223 was extended to December 31, 2023, and the maturity date of 50% of the remaining debentures with a principal amount of $225,223 was extended to December 31, 2024; and (iv) the conversion price of the warrants issuable upon conversion of the debentures was reduced to $0.40.

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740-10, which provides for an asset and liability approach of accounting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on anticipated future tax consequences, using currently enacted tax laws, attributed to temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts calculated for income tax purposes.

The components of the income tax provision include:

		Three Months Ended November 30,
		2024			2023
Revenue		$	4,161,270			$	5,197,214
Directly attributable costs			(1,928,995	)			(3,025,595	)
Deferred			2,232,275				2,171,619

Tax expense		$	993,674			$	933,564

Note: Change in uncertain tax position with all tax expense recorded in current year due to change in estimate. No prior year net operating loss was considered.

Due to the accrual of taxes related to Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, the Company has an uncertain tax accrual that is currently being expensed as a change in estimate. The Company has net operating losses that it believes are available to it to offset this expense; however, there can be no assurance under current interpretations of tax laws for cannabis companies that the Company will be allowed to use these net operating losses to offset Section 280E tax expenses.

During the three months ended November 30, 2024, the Company received a notification from the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") that the Company has been assessed the amount of $111,441, consisting of estimated tax owed of $71,959, penalties of $26,771, and interest of $12,711 for failure to file its tax return for the year ended May 31, 2022. The Company made a good faith payment to the IRS in the amount of $5,000 pursuant to this notice during the three months ended November 30, 2024.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

History

We were incorporated on March 31, 2011 as Adelt Design, Inc. to manufacture and market carpet binding art. Production and marketing of carpet binding art never commenced. On November 20, 2014, we adopted amended and restated articles of incorporation, thereby changing our name to CLS Holdings USA, Inc. On April 29, 2015, we entered into a merger agreement with CLS Labs and a newly-formed, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the "Merger Sub") and effected the Merger (the "Merger"). Upon the consummation of the Merger, the separate existence of the Merger Sub ceased and CLS Labs, the surviving corporation in the Merger, became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, with the Company acquiring the stock of CLS Labs. As a result of the Merger, we acquired the business of CLS Labs and abandoned our previous business.

CLS Labs was originally incorporated in the state of Nevada on May 1, 2014 under the name RJF Labs, Inc. before changing its name to CLS Labs, Inc. on October 24, 2014. It was formed to commercialize a proprietary method of extracting cannabinoids from cannabis plants and converting the resulting cannabinoid extracts into concentrates such as oils, waxes, edibles and shatter.

We have been issued a U.S. patent with respect to our proprietary method of extracting cannabinoids from cannabis plants and converting the resulting cannabinoid extracts into concentrates such as oils, waxes, edibles and shatter. We have not commercialized our proprietary process and due to the current Nevada State laws governing these types of extraction methods, we do not intend to commercialize the proprietary process in the future. CLSH is engaged in attempting to find a buyer for the patent who may be able to use it in another state or another application.

Current Business and Outlook

We generate revenues through: (i) our retail dispensary (Oasis), and (ii) our City Trees cultivation and processing of cannabis and wholesale of cannabis-related products for Oasis and third-parties. We continue to explore opportunities for growth through the acquisition of companies, the creation of joint ventures, licensing agreements, and fee-for-service arrangements with growers and dispensaries of cannabis products. We believe that we can ultimately establish a position as one of the premier cannabinoid extraction and processing companies in the industry. We have created our own brand of concentrates for consumer use, which we sell wholesale to cannabis dispensaries. We are attempting to create a "gold standard" national brand by standardizing the testing, compliance and labeling of our products in an industry currently comprised of small, local businesses with erratic and unreliable product quality, testing practices and labeling.

Finally, we intend to grow through select acquisitions in secondary and tertiary markets, targeting newly regulated states that we believe offer a competitive advantage. Our goal at this time is to become a successful regional cannabis company.

Revenues

We had revenue of $4,161,270 during the three months ended November 30, 2024, a decrease of $1,035,944, or 10%, compared to revenue of $5,197,214 during the three months ended November 30, 2023. Our cannabis dispensary accounted for $2,706,856, or 65%, of our revenue for the three months ended November 30, 2024, a decrease of $397,208, or 13%, compared to $3,104,064 during the three months ended November 30, 2023. Dispensary revenue decreased during the second quarter of fiscal year 2025 because our average sales per day decreased from $34,111 during the first quarter of fiscal year 2024 to $29,746 during the first quarter of fiscal year 2025. Our cannabis production accounted for $1,454,414, or 35%, of our revenue for the three months ended November 30, 2024, a decrease of $638,736 or 31%, compared to $2,093,150 for the three months ended November 30, 2023.

Cost of Goods Sold

Our cost of goods sold for the three months ended November 30, 2024 was $2,389,2445, a decrease of $720,055, or 12%, compared to cost of goods sold of $3,025,595 for the three months ended November 30, 2023. The decrease in cost of goods sold for the three months ended November 30, 2024 was primarily due to a decrease in sales. Cost of goods sold was 57.4% of sales during the three months ended November 30, 2024 resulting in a gross margin of 42.6%. Cost of goods sold was 58.2% of sales during the three months ended November 30, 2023 resulting in a gross margin of 41.8%. Cost of goods sold during the second quarter of the 2025 fiscal year primarily consisted of product cost of $1,842,336, labor and overhead of $460,250, supplies and materials of $83,659, and licenses and fees of $3,000. Cost of goods sold during the second quarter of the 2024 fiscal year primarily consisted of product cost of $2,478,302, labor and overhead of $417,254, supplies and materials of $124,474, and licenses and fees of $8,475.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses, or SG&A, decreased by $511,819, or approximately 10%, to $2,095,099 during the three months ended November 30, 2024, compared to $2,606,918 for the three months ended November 30, 2023. The decrease in SG&A expenses for the three months ended November 30, 2024 was primarily due to our across-the-board cost-cutting efforts.

SG&A expense during the three months ended November 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to an aggregate of $1,579,192 in costs associated with operating the Oasis LLCs, a decrease of $625,926 compared to $2,205,118 during the three months ended November 30, 2023. The major components of the decrease were as follows: professional fees of $40,053 compared to $186,144; office and facilities expenses of $444,946 compared to $525,014; payroll and related costs of $1,102,732 compared to $1,170,765; sales and marketing costs of $96,709 compared to $103,048; travel of $63,274 compared to $131,426; insurance costs of $69,563 compared to $122,069; and taxes & licenses of $133,036 compared to $181,457. The amount of SG&A expenses allocated to cost of sales during the period also increased from $328,172 to $444,885, further reducing the net amount of SG&A expenses. There were no categories of SG&A expenses within the Oasis LLCs that increased during the period compared to the prior year.

Finally, SG&A increased by $114,108 during the three months ended November 30, 2024 as a result of an increase in the expenses associated with the ongoing implementation of other aspects of our business plan and our general corporate overhead to $401,800 from $515,908 during the three months ended November 30, 2023. The major component of this increase compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was an increase professional fees in the amount of $95,732 related to our refinancing efforts.

Interest Expense, Net

Our interest expense was $295,715 for the three months ended November 30, 2024, a decrease of $115,126, or 13%, compared to $410,841 for the three months ended November 30, 2023. The decrease consisted primarily of a decrease in the amount of $128,498 related to interest on our notes and debentures due to decreased principal balances. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in the amortization of discounts on our notes payable in the amount of $20,741.

Employee Retention Tax Credit

During the three months ended November 30, 2023, the Company received the amount of $50,103 under the provisions of the extension of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act").

Although we have net operating losses that we believe are available to us to offset this entire tax liability, which arises under Section 280E of the Code because we are a cannabis company, as a conservative measure, we have accrued this liability.

Net Loss

For the reasons above, our net loss for the three months ended November 30, 2024 was $87,671 compared to a net loss of $1,302,180 for the three months ended November 30, 2023, a decrease of $1,214,601, or 69%.

Non-Controlling Interest

During the three months ended November 30, 2024 and 2023, the income (loss) associated with the non-controlling interest in Kealii Okamalu was ($0) and ($92), respectively.

Revenues

We had revenue of $8,966,435 during the six months ended November 30, 2024, a decrease of $1,345,306, or 13%, compared to revenue of $10,311,741 during the six months ended November 30, 2023. Our cannabis dispensary accounted for $5,773,932, or 64%, of our revenue for the six months ended November 30, 2024, a decrease of $638,674, or 10%, compared to $6,412,606 during the six months ended November 30, 2023. Dispensary revenue decreased during the second quarter of fiscal year 2025 because our average sales per day decreased from $35,042 during the second quarter of fiscal year 2024 to $31,552 during the second quarter of fiscal year 2025. Our cannabis production accounted for $3,192,503, or 35%, of our revenue for the six months ended November 30, 2024, a decrease of $706,632 or 18%, compared to $3,899,135 for the six months ended November 30, 2023.

Cost of Goods Sold

Our cost of goods sold for the six months ended November 30, 2024 was $5,146,141, a decrease of $720,055, or 12%, compared to cost of goods sold of $5,866,196 for the six months ended November 30, 2023. The decrease in cost of goods sold for the six months ended November 30, 2024 was primarily due to a decrease in sales. Cost of goods sold was 57.4% of sales during the six months ended November 30, 2024 resulting in a gross margin of 42.6%. Cost of goods sold was 56.9% of sales during the six months ended November 30, 2023 resulting in a gross margin of 43.1%. Cost of goods sold during the second quarter of the 2025 fiscal year primarily consisted of product cost of $4,054,387, labor and overhead of $911,484, supplies and materials of $172,612, and licenses and fees of $7,658. Cost of goods sold during the second quarter of the 2024 fiscal year primarily consisted of product cost of $2,478,302, labor and overhead of $417,254, supplies and materials of $124,474, and licenses and fees of $8,475.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses, or SG&A, decreased by $1,056,886, or approximately 20%, to $4,279,932 during the six months ended November 30, 2024, compared to $5,336,818 for the six months ended November 30, 2023. The decrease in SG&A expenses for the six months ended November 30, 2024 was primarily due to our across-the-board cost-cutting efforts.

SG&A expense during the six months ended November 30, 2024 was primarily attributable to an aggregate of $3,280,715 in costs associated with operating the Oasis LLCs, a decrease of $1,130,283 compared to $4,410,998 during the six months ended November 30, 2023. The major components of the decrease were as follows: professional fees of $82,553 compared to $417,016; office and facilities expenses of $898,094 compared to $1,075,350; payroll and related costs of $2,215,895 compared to $2,342,484; sales and marketing costs of $173,165 compared to $218,509; travel of $153,320 compared to $231,796; insurance costs of $153,909 compared to $219,736; and taxes & licenses of $292,618 compared to $369,043. The amount of SG&A expenses allocated to cost of sales during the period also increased from $691,098 to $848,143, further reducing the net amount of SG&A expenses. There were no categories of SG&A expenses within the Oasis LLCs that increased during the period compared to the prior year.

Finally, SG&A increased by $73,397 during the six months ended November 30, 2024 as a result of an increase in the expenses associated with the ongoing implementation of other aspects of our business plan and our general corporate overhead to $999,218 from $925,821 during the six months ended November 30, 2023. The major component of this increase compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was an increase professional fees in the amount of $129,394 related to our refinancing efforts.

Interest Expense, Net

Our interest expense was $455,118 for the six months ended November 30, 2024, a decrease of $413,195, or 48%, compared to $868,313 for the six months ended November 30, 2023. The decrease consisted primarily of a decrease in the amount of $205,794 related to interest on our notes and debentures due to decreased principal balances; a decrease of $68,513 in interest in short-term financing; and a decrease of $131,680 in amortization of the discount on notes payable.

Employee Retention Tax Credit

During the six months ended November 30, 2024, the Company received the amount of $50,103 under the provisions of the extension of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act") compared to $934,862 during the prior period, a decrease of $874,759 or 95%.

Gain on settlement of debt

During the six months ended November 30, 2024, we recorded a gain on settlement of debt in the amount of $949,793 related to the payment of notes payable in the principal amount of $2,868,282 for a cash payment in the amount of $2,600,000. In addition, the noteholders returned for cancellation a total of 15,488,901 shares of the Company's common stock and warrants to purchase 6,177,216 shares of the Company's common stock. The cancelled shares were valued at the closing price of the Company's common stock on the date of the cancellation, or $0.044 per share for a total value of $677,374. There was no comparable transaction in the prior period.

Gain on settlement of accounts payable

During the six months ended November 30, 2023, we settled an outstanding vendor account in the amount of $8,375 for a cash payment of $4,000 representing a gain in the amount of $4,375. There was no comparable transaction in the current period.

Provision for Income Taxes

We recorded a provision for income taxes in the amount of $993,674 during the six months ended November 30, 2024 compared to $933,564 during the six months ended November 30, 2023, an increase of $60,110 or 6%. Although we have net operating losses that we believe are available to us to offset this entire tax liability, which arises under Section 280E of the Code because we are a cannabis company, as a conservative measure, we have accrued this liability.

Net Loss

For the reasons above, our net loss for the six months ended November 30, 2024 was $908,534 compared to a net loss of $1,763,913 for the six months ended November 30, 2023, a decrease of $857,579, or 49%.

Non-Controlling Interest

During the six months ended November 30, 2024 and 2023, the income (loss) associated with the non-controlling interest in Kealii Okamalu was ($0) and ($2,200), respectively. This amount is comprised of the third-party portion of the operating loss of the Quinn River Joint Venture and our loss on equity investment.

Net Loss Attributable to CLS Holdings USA, Inc.

Our net loss attributable to CLS Holdings USA, Inc. for the six months ended November 30, 2024 was $908,534 compared to a net loss of $1,766,113 for the six months ended November 30, 2023, a decrease of $857,579 or 49%.

Non-GAAP Measures

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial performance measures and should not be considered as alternatives to net income(loss) or any other measure derived in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measure have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our financial results as reported in accordance with GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, these presentations may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. As required by the rules of the SEC, we provide below a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures contained herein to the most directly comparable measure under GAAP. Management believes that EBITDA provides relevant and useful information, which is widely used by analysts, investors and competitors in our industry as well as by our management. Management also believes that adjusting EBITDA for the effects of non-recurring transactions may provide insight into the nature of the core business. By providing these non-GAAP profitability measure, management intends to provide investors with a meaningful, consistent comparison of our profitability measures for the periods presented.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since our inception we have funded our operations and capital spending primarily through the issuance of debt and common stock. At November 30, 2024, we had cash of $592,584 and a working capital deficit of $13,116,227; at January 8, 2025, we had cash of $1,864,918. We generated cash flow from operating activities of $468,336 for the six months ended November 30, 2024, compared to $1,004,631 for the six months ended November 30, 2023. As of November 30, 2024, we had an accumulated deficit of $114,275,584. The Company's auditors have included a going concern qualification in their audit report for the years ended May 31, 2024 and 2023.

During the past two years, we have been involved in a focused effort to reduce our debt burden through a combination of settlements, restructurings, principal payments, and conversions of debt to common stock. The following table illustrates the results of these efforts:

Principal balance of debt:

		November 30, 2024			August 31, 2024			May 31, 2024			May 31, 2023			May 31, 2022
Convertible notes payable including related party		$	1,661,326			$	3,985,481			$	4,001,431			$	7,606,102			$	19,448,821
Current portion		$	126,043			$	375,025			$	302,005			$	3,853,051			$	9,448,821
Notes Payable and Debentures		$	163,600			$	704,830			$	741,052			$	3,472,661			$	4,375,000

Total		$	4,005,410			$	6,945,061			$	6,809,506			$	11,981,102			$	23,823,821
Current portion		$	1,769,303			$	1,915,524			$	1,429,822			$	5,292,635			$	19,448,821

We intend to continue these efforts to further reduce our debt burden in the coming year. During the six months ended November 30, 2024, we raised $2,600,000 from the issuance of a note payable to a related party; $2,200,000 of this amount was converted to 56,847,545 shares of common stock during the period, and $400,000 remains on the balance sheet as a note payable at November 30, 2024. The $2,600,000 was used to retire debt in the aggregate principal amount of $2,868,282 in September 2024. We believe we have resources in place with existing and prospective lenders to continue to reduce our debt burden, though there can be no guarantee that this will be the case.

Our working capital deficit is due primarily to accruals for taxes payable under Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code in the amount of $9,888,537 and $8,899,863 at November 30, 2024. It is the Company's position that these taxes will not ultimately be owed. Removing this amount from the calculation of net working capital results in a working capital deficit of $3,227,690 at November 30, 2024.

The Company continues to generate positive cash flow from operating activities, which were $468,336 for the six months ended November 30, 2024 compared to $1,004,631 for the six months ended November 30, 2023. We intend to continue to focus on operational activities in order to further improve our cash flow.

We have one potential capital expenditure project planned for fiscal 2025, which is our proposed 3,700 square foot cannabis consumption lounge and 300 square foot outdoor patio area to be attached to the Oasis dispensary. We expect this project to require a capital expenditure in the range of $500,000 to $1,000,000, depending upon various buildout decisions.

We believe the resources are available to execute our business plan in the coming year from existing and prospective investors and from internally generated cash flow, though there is no guarantee that this will be the case.

Going Concern

Our financial statements were prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. With the exception of the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we have incurred losses from operations since inception, and have an accumulated deficit of $114,275,584 as of November 30, 2024, compared to $113,367,050 as of May 31, 2024. We had a working capital deficit of $13,116,227 as of November 30, 2024, compared to a working capital deficit of $10,928,252 as of May 31, 2024. The report of our independent auditors for the year ended May 31, 2024 contained a going concern qualification.

Our ability to continue as a going concern must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, and complications frequently encountered by early-stage companies.

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to generate sufficient cash from operations to meet our cash needs and finance our ongoing operations. There can be no assurance that cash generated by our future operations will be adequate to meet our needs.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any 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, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Management uses various estimates and assumptions in preparing our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Accounting estimates that are the most important to the presentation of our results of operations and financial condition, and which require the greatest use of judgment by management, are designated as our critical accounting estimates. We have the following critical accounting estimates:

	●	Estimates and assumptions regarding the deductibility of expenses for purposes of Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code: Management evaluates the expenses of its manufacturing and retail operations and makes certain judgments regarding the deductibility of various expenses under Section 280E of the Internal Revenue Code based on its interpretation of this regulation and its subjective assumptions about the categorization of these expenses.
	●	Estimates and assumptions used in the valuation of derivative liabilities: Management utilizes a lattice model to estimate the fair value of derivative liabilities. The model includes subjective assumptions that can materially affect the fair value estimates.
	●	Estimates and assumptions used in the valuation of intangible assets. In order to value our intangible assets, management prepares multi-year projections of revenue, costs of goods sold, gross margin, operating expenses, taxes and after tax margins relating to the operations associated with the intangible assets being valued. These projections are based on the estimates of management at the time they are prepared and include subjective assumptions regarding industry growth and other matters.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Accounting standards promulgated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") are subject to change. Changes in such standards may have an impact on our future financial statements. The following are a summary of recent accounting developments.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, "Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)". This ASU reduces the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible Preferred Stock. As well as amend the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity's own equity to reduce form-over-substance-based accounting conclusions. In addition, this ASU improves and amends the related EPS guidance. This standard is effective for us on June 1, 2024, including interim periods within such fiscal year. Adoption is either a modified retrospective method or a fully retrospective method of transition. We do not expect the implementation of this standard to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

There are various other updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk.

This item is not applicable as we are currently considered a smaller reporting company.

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 by us in the reports that we file or submit pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, among other things, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Securities Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Andrew Glashow, our Chief Executive Officer, and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. The Company believes it now has an adequate number of trained personnel to resolve any segregation of duties deficiencies. Based on the evaluation, Mr. Glashow concluded that:

●

We do not have an independent body to oversee our internal controls over financial reporting due to our limited resources.

We plan to rectify these weaknesses by hiring additional accounting personnel once we have additional resources to do so.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
