CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may include our statements regarding our goals, beliefs, strategies, objectives, plans, including product and service developments, future financial conditions, results or projections or current expectations. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may," "will," "should," "expect," "plan," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "predict," "potential" or "continue," the negative of such terms, or other comparable terminology. For example, when we discuss our expectations for 2024, our expectations for revenue sources, costs of revenue and expenses going forward, and that we will continue to pursue strategic transactions and opportunities, we are using forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause actual results to be materially different from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, our ability to implement our strategic initiatives, economic, political and market conditions and fluctuations, government and industry regulation, interest rate risk, U.S. and global competition, and other factors. Most of these factors are difficult to predict accurately and are generally beyond our control. You should consider the areas of risk described in connection with any forward-looking statements that may be made herein. The business and operations of CFN Enterprises Inc. are subject to substantial risks, which increase the uncertainty inherent in the forward-looking statements contained in this report. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to release publicly the result of any revision to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Further information on potential factors that could affect our business is described under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” contained in our annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on April 11, 2024.

CFN Enterprises Inc., formerly known as Accelerize Inc., or the Company, is a Delaware corporation incorporated on November 22, 2005. Effective October 22, 2019, the Company filed a certificate of amendment to its certificate of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to change its corporate name to CFN Enterprises Inc.

On May 15, 2019, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement or the Emerging Growth Agreement with Emerging Growth, LLC, or Emerging Growth, pursuant to which the Company acquired certain assets from the Emerging Growth related to its sponsored content and marketing business, or the CFN Business, for a purchase price consideration consisting of $420,000 in cash, 30,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and 3,000 shares of Series B preferred stock with a total stated value of $3,000,000 which bears interest at 6% per annum and is convertible into the Company’s common stock at a conversion price to be mutually agreed in the future, without voting rights or a liquidation preference except with respect to default interest. The securities were issued pursuant to an exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The closing of the purchase of the assets pursuant to the Emerging Growth Agreement occurred on June 20, 2019.

On August 23, 2021, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements with CNP Operating, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, or CNP Operating, and the owners of all of the equity interests of CNP Operating, or the Owners, whereby the Company acquired 100% of CNP Operating from the Owners in exchange for an aggregate of 23.6 million shares of the Company’s common stock. The securities were issued pursuant to an exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. On August 25, 2021 the transaction was closed and CNP Operating became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. CNP Operating is a cannabidiol manufacturer. In the fourth quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023, the Company took steps to wind down the operations of CNP Operating and focus on the CFN Business.

On December 6, 2021, the Company effected a reverse split of its outstanding common stock in the ratio of 1-for-15, or the Reverse Stock Split. All share amounts retrospectively reflect the effect of the Reverse Stock Split.

On July 1, 2023, the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Ranco LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, or Ranco, entered into an asset purchase agreement, or the Asset Purchase Agreement (“Ranco Agreement”) with RAN CoPacking Solutions LLC, a California limited liability company, or the Seller and the members of the Seller ~~(collectively, the Founders)~~. The assets of the Seller acquired by Ranco consist of assets for co-packing and white label manufacturing services, including comprehensive solutions for third party logistics (3PL) related areas such as storage, order fulfillment, solutions for custom packaging and hardware needs for many different industries, and media and design services, along with strategic marketing support, to help clients establish and enhance their brand presence in the market, or the Purchased Assets.

Also on July 1, 2023, Ranco entered into the Packwoods Private Label Services and Intellectual Property Licensing Agreement, or the Licensing Agreement, with PW Industries LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company, or PW, RS Distributions LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, or RS, and Packaging Innovations LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company, or PI, and together with PW and RS, the Licensors, for the exclusive manufacturing, packaging and distribution of, and wholesale and retail sales of a variety hemp-based inhalable (pre-roll and vaporizer), edible products, and disposable nicotine-based inhalable vaporizer products, and the purchase of packaging materials to be used with Packwoods-branded cannabis products (containing more than 0.3% delta-9 THC by weight) and the distribution of those packaging materials to licensed cannabis manufacturers designated by PW, using the Licensor’s licensed property for a 5 year exclusive term, subject to certain exclusions.

The Company’s current operations consist of the ~~sponsored content and marketing business, or the~~ CFN Business~~, from the assets acquired pursuant to the Emerging Growth Agreement,~~ and the business of Ranco, or the Ranco Business.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations for the next 12 months as of the date these financial statements are issued.

The Company had a working capital deficit of $1514,~~939~~862,~~618~~760 and an accumulated deficit of $7675,~~441~~528,~~770~~870 as of ~~June~~September 30, 2024. The Company also had a net loss of $1926,~~898,909~~009 for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2024.

Management’s plan to continue as a going concern includes raising capital in the form of debt or equity, growing the CFN Business, growing the newly acquired Ranco Business, managing and reducing operating and overhead costs and continuing to pursue strategic transactions and opportunities including launching an e-commerce network focused on the sale of general wellness cannabidiol, or CBD, products.

These matters, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Basis of Presentation and Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries CNP Operating, a Delaware limited liability company, CNP of Wyoming, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, and Ranco, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company. All intercompany accounts and transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation.

These unaudited condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments including normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes included herein should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, which are included in the Company’s December 31, 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on April 11, 2024. The Company assumes that the users of the interim financial information herein have read, or have access to, the audited consolidated financial statements for the preceding period, and that the adequacy of additional disclosure needed for a fair presentation of these may be determined in that context. The results of operations for the period ended ~~June~~September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year ending December 31, 2024.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reporting amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results will differ from those estimates. Included in these estimates are assumptions about collection of accounts receivable, useful life of fixed assets and intangible assets, borrowing rate considered for operating lease right-of-use asset and related operating lease liability, and assumptions used in Black-Scholes valuation methods, such as expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividend rate.

Segment Reporting

The Company operates under one reporting segment.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid, temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased, to be cash equivalents. ~~The~~As ~~Company has restricted cash as a result~~ of ~~its~~September ~~corporate card program through its bank, which requires collateral placed in a money market account. At June~~ 30, 2024, the Company had ano restricted cash balance. ~~of $20~~Consequently,~~600~~ there are no amounts included as arestricted ~~component~~cash ofin the total cash and ~~restricted~~ cash asequivalents presented on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows.

Accounts Receivable

The Company’s account receivables for the CFN Business are due from customers relating to contracts to provide investor relation services for the CFN Business. For the Ranco Business, accounts receivables are due from customers for products sold and manufacturing, packing and labeling services provided. Collateral is currently not required. The Company also maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of the Company’s customers to make payments. The Company periodically reviews these estimated allowances, including an analysis of the customers’ payment history and creditworthiness, the age of the trade receivable balances and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to make payments as well as historical collection trends for its customers as a whole. Based on this review, the Company specifically reserves for those accounts deemed uncollectible or likely to become uncollectible. When receivables are determined to be uncollectible, principal amounts of such receivables outstanding are deducted from the allowance. The allowance for doubtful accounts as of ~~June~~September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 amounted to $~~754~~1,~~726~~946,327 and $796,251, respectively.

Inventory

The Company’s inventory consists of finished goods acquired for its Ranco business. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2024, all inventory consisted of disposable nicotine-based inhalable vaporizer products purchased from overseas. The inventory is valued at the lower of cost (specific identification) or estimated net realizable value. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2024, the Company valued the inventory at $14,~~864~~236,~~703~~923.

Concentration of Credit Risks

The Company is subject to concentrations of credit risk primarily from cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable.

The Company’s cash and restricted cash accounts are held at a financial institution and are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or the FDIC, up to $250,000. From time-to-time, the Company’s bank balances exceed the FDIC insurance limit. To reduce its risk associated with the failure of such financial institutions, the Company periodically evaluates the credit quality of the financial institution in which it holds deposits.

Concentrations

The Company had two customers which accounted for 3960% of gross accounts receivable as of ~~June~~September 30, 2024. During the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2024, two ~~one~~customers ~~customer~~ accounted for 5262% and 3357% of the Company’s revenues, respectively. The Company may be negatively affected by the loss of one of these customers.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, 606, the core principle of which is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, five basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

The Company accounts for revenues when both parties to the contract have approved the contract, the rights and obligations of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, and collectability of consideration is probable. Payment terms vary by client and the services offered.

CFN Business

Subsequent to the closing of the Emerging Growth Agreement on June 20, 2019, the Company’s revenue is generated from the sale of promotional service packages to its customers ranging from 3 to 6 months. The Company offers different packages tailored to the type and stage of the potential customer, such as public companies looking to increase their shareholder base, as well as private companies potentially looking to go public and attract capital and publicity. The services provided by the Company include advertising, publishing of interviews and articles across its network and featuring of client content on its newsletters and social media. The packages all have fixed prices that are billed monthly over the terms of the agreement in even amounts. The Company recognizes revenue for its performance obligation associated with its contracts with customers over time as work is performed, which is deemed to occur evenly throughout the duration of the contract. This also reflects the pattern in which costs are incurred on performing the contracts. To the extent revenue recognized on contracts at each period end exceeds collections, the amounts are reflected as accounts receivable. To the extent collections on contracts at each period end exceeds revenue recognized, the amounts are reflected as deferred revenue.

Ranco Business

The Company performs services including white label manufacturing and co-packing for customers. Customers will drop off their product and the Company will perform the services via their employees and contractors. When the services are complete, the Company has satisfied its performance obligations. Revenue is recognized at this point in time.

The Company will order products that are manufactured overseas, such as custom boxes, packaging and hardware. These products are generally shipped from overseas to the customer. When these products are shipped out from the manufacturer, the Company has satisfied its performance obligations. Revenue is recognized at this point in time.

Lastly, the Company provides certain shipping and third party logistics services for customers. Once the products have arrived from overseas to the Company’s warehouse, the Company has satisfied its performance obligations which was the underlying shipping and logistics services. Revenue is recognized at this point in time.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The following is a disaggregation of revenue for the ~~six~~three months and ~~three~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2024 and 2023 respectively:

	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,
	Three Months EndedSeptember 30,		Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2024	2023	2024	2023

	$5,893,962	$152,301	$9,738,554	$265,259
	$6,771,741	$1,678,571	$16,510,295	$1,943,830

Contract Liabilities

In some instances, customers provide payment before the Company has satisfied its performance obligations. These amounts are recorded to deferred revenue. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had $~~235~~219,~~125~~030 and $484,212, respectively in deferred revenue.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue includes direct labor and materials. Cost of revenues also includes inbound and outbound shipping, freight and delivery costs.

Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs

Amounts billed to customers for shipping and handling fees are presented in revenue. Costs incurred for shipping and handling are included in cost of revenue.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company accounts for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, or ASC 820. ASC 820 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to existing generally accepted accounting principles that require the use of fair value measurements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements.

ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, ASC 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized below:

Level 1:	Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2:	Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.

Level 3:	Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, deferred revenue and due to related party approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of these items. The Company’s notes payable approximate their fair value due to the market rate of interest on the notes.

The Company’s contingent consideration recorded in connection with the Ranco acquisition (see Note 3) is a Level 3 liability. The liability is valued using a probability weighted analysis of the respective earn out provisions.

Business Combinations

The Company accounts for acquisitions in which it obtains control of one or more businesses as a business combination. The purchase price of the acquired businesses is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over those fair values is recognized as goodwill. During the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments, in the period in which they are determined, to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. If the assets acquired are not a business, the Company accounts for the transaction or other event as an asset acquisition. Under both methods, the Company

~~recognizes~~Business the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquired entity. In addition, for transactions that are business combinations, the Company evaluates the existence of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase.Combinations

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired entity over the fair value of identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination.

Impairment

Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with ASC 360-10, the Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their net book value may not be recoverable. When such factors and circumstances exist, the Company compares the projected undiscounted future cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their estimated useful lives against their respective carrying amount. Impairment, if any, is based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value, based on market value when available, or discounted expected cash flows, of those assets and is recorded in the period in which the determination is made.

Contingent Consideration

The Company records a contingent consideration liability relating to earn the Company’s shares included in its acquisition agreements. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration is recorded using significant unobservable measures and other fair value inputs and is therefore classified as a Level 3 financial instrument.

The Company estimates and records the acquisition date fair value of contingent consideration as part of purchase price consideration for acquisitions. Additionally, each reporting period, the Company estimates changes in the fair value of contingent consideration and recognizes any change in fair in the consolidated statement of operations. The estimate of the fair value of contingent consideration requires very subjective assumptions to be made of future operating results, discount rates and probabilities assigned to various potential operating result scenarios. Future revisions to these assumptions could materially change the estimate of the fair value of contingent consideration and, therefore, materially affect the Company’s future financial results. The contingent consideration liability is to be settled with the issuance of shares of common stock once contingent provisions set forth in respective acquisition agreements have been achieved. Upon achievement of contingent provisions, respective liabilities are relieved and offset by increases to common stock and additional paid-in capital in the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Ranco Earnout

The Ranco Agreement contains an earn out provision providing for the issuance of (i) 8 million shares of Company common stock to be issued upon Ranco achieving $19 million in gross revenue attributable to the Purchased Assets and a net profit of $3.9 million within the twelve month period beginning three months from the closing of the Acquisition, or the First Earnout Period, and (ii) 8 million shares of Company common stock to be issued upon Ranco achieving $29 million in gross revenue attributable to the Purchased Assets and a net profit of $5.9 million within the twelve month period beginning on the day immediately following the end of the First Earnout Period.

The Company utilized a probability weighted scenario based on the earnout provisions above and determined the fair value of the contingent consideration was $208,000, which is a Level 3 financial instrument. There was no change to the fair value for the contingent consideration as of ~~June~~September 30, 2024.

Advertising

The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expenses for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2024 and 2023 amounted to $6545,~~383~~216 and $1524,~~355~~487, respectively. Advertising expenses for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2024 and 2023 amounted to $84129,~~709~~925 and $2752,~~969~~773, respectively.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of five years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.

Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing income available to stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Dilutive common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants (calculated using the modified-treasury stock method). As of September 30, 2024, the Company had no outstanding stock options, 11,988,500 outstanding warrants and 3,500 shares of preferred stock which were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their effects were anti-dilutive. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had no outstanding stock options, 8,138,500 outstanding warrants and 3,500 shares of preferred stock which were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their effects were anti-dilutive. As a result, the basic and diluted earnings per share are the same for each of the periods presented.

of stock options and warrants (calculated using the modified-treasury stock method). As of June 30, 2024, the Company had no outstanding stock options, 11,988,500 outstanding warrants and 3,500 shares of preferred stock which were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their effects were anti-dilutive. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had no outstanding stock options, 8,138,500 outstanding warrants and 3,500 shares of preferred stock which were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their effects were anti-dilutive. As a result, the basic and diluted earnings per share are the same for each of the periods presented.

Share-Based Payments

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation, or ASC 718. Under the fair value recognition provisions of this topic, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is the vesting period.

The Company has elected to use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of its options, which incorporates various subjective assumptions including volatility, risk-free interest rate, expected life, and dividend yield to calculate the fair value of stock option awards. Compensation expense recognized in the statements of operations is based on awards ultimately expected to vest and reflects estimated forfeitures. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.

Leases

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (“Topic 842”) using the modified retrospective method. This accounting standard requires a lessee to recognize an asset and liability for most leases on its balance sheet.

Under Topic 842, the Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. For this purpose, the Company considers only payments that are fixed and determinable at the time of commencement and leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not included in lease liabilities or ROU asset. As most leases do not provide an implicit rate, a rate which approximates the Company’s incremental borrowing rate is used, based on the information available at commencement date, in determining the present value of lease payments. The ROU asset also includes any lease payments made prior to commencement and is recorded net of any lease incentives received. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options. Lease agreements may contain variable costs such as common area maintenance, insurance, real estate taxes or other costs. Variable lease costs are expensed as incurred. Lease agreements generally do not contain residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants. Over the lease term, the Company uses the effective interest rate method to account for the lease liability as lease payments are made and the ROU asset is amortized in a manner that results in straight-line expense recognition.

NOTE 3: BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

RAN CoPacking Solutions LLC

The Company evaluated the Asset Purchase Agreement pursuant to ASC 805 and ASU 2017-01, Topic 805, Business Combinations. The Company first determined that the Seller met the definition of a business as it includes inputs and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to create outputs. The Seller’s results of operations are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The acquisition method of accounting requires, among other things, that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination be measured at their estimated respective fair values as of the closing date of the acquisition. Goodwill recognized in connection with this transaction represents primarily the potential economic benefits that the Company believes may arise from the acquisition The purchase price allocation is preliminary and could be significantly revised as a result of additional information obtained regarding assets acquired and liabilities assumed and revisions of estimates of fair values of tangible assets and related deferred tax assets and liabilities. The Company will finalize its valuation and the allocation of the purchase price, along with required retrospective adjustments, if any, within a year following the acquisition date.

Total fair value of the preliminary purchase price consideration as of July 1, 2023 was determined as follows:

Cash (due to seller)		$1,000,000
Common stock		8,000,000
Contingent consideration		208,000
Purchase price consideration		$9,208,000

On July 1, 2023, the Company issued 40,000,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement for a fair value of $8,000,000, or $0.20 per share.

10Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company owes the Seller $1,000,000 in cash consideration. The amount was recorded as a due to seller liability on the consolidated balance sheet. As of September 30, 2024, no payments were made.

In accordance with the Earn Out provisions per the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company determined an initial fair value of $208,000 based on the fair value of the shares at the acquisition date and probabilities of the respective Earn Out terms. There was no change in fair value of the contingent consideration at June 30, 2024.

Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation

The Company has made a preliminary allocation of the purchase price in regard to the acquisition related to the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed as of the purchase date. The following table summarizes the preliminary purchase price allocation:

Cash		$134,060
Accounts receivable		175,340
Deposits		297,269
Goodwill		8,676,430
Right of use asset		2,272,059
Accounts payable		(48,430)
Current portion of right of use liability		(538,243)
Right of use of liability		(1,760,485)
Purchase price consideration		$9,208,000

Goodwill is primarily attributable to the go-to-market synergies that are expected to arise as a result of the acquisition and other intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. The goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

NOTE 5: NOTES PAYABLE

On September 10, 2019, the Company entered into a promissory note payable whereby the Company borrowed $500,000 bearing interest at 8% per annum. Interest on the note is payable quarterly on the first business day of December, March, June and September commencing December 1, 2019. In May 2021, the Company and the holder of the promissory note reached an agreement to extend the maturity date of the note from September 30, 2022 to September 30, 2024. In connection with the extension, the Company issued 160,000 shares of its common stock to the noteholder in lieu of $40,000 of interest accrued and accruing on the promissory note through December 31, 2022. In 2022, the maturity date was extended to 2024.

In connection with the promissory note on September 10, 2019, the Company issued warrants to purchase 33,333 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share.

NOTE 9: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company may become involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Except as set forth below, the Company is not presently a party to any legal proceedings that it currently believes, if determined adversely to the Company, would individually or taken together have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results, financial condition or cash flows.

In October 2022, CAKE Software Inc., or CAKE, filed a lawsuit against the Company in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, captioned CAKE Software, Inc. v. Accelerize Inc. n/k/a CFN Enterprises Inc., Index No. 653838/2022. On December 6, 2022, CAKE filed an amended complaint, which is the operative complaint in this matter. CAKE's lawsuit stems from an Asset Purchase Agreement, or the APA, executed by the parties in May 2019, in which CAKE was the buyer of certain assets from the Company. CAKE alleges that the Company breached the APA by not paying a purported outstanding amount due which was to be calculated post-closing, and for breaching certain representations and warranties in the APA. CAKE further seeks indemnification under the APA for what it alleges are liabilities the Company retained after the closing of the sale. Based on its claims, CAKE is seeking compensatory damages of at least $1,045,441.86, attorney's fees, interests and costs, and such other relief as the court may deem just and appropriate.

In January 2023, the Company filed its initial Answer and Counterclaims, denying the material allegations and asserting its own claims against CAKE and Perseus Operating Group, or Perseus, a division of Constellation Software Inc. (TSX:CSU, OTCPK: CNSWF; www.csisoftware.com), or Constellation Software. On July 19, 2023, the parties held a mediation but were unsuccessful in reaching an agreement.

On September 25, 2023, after prevailing on a motion for leave to amend its initial Answer with Counterclaims, the Company filed its Amended Answer with Counterclaims against CAKE and Constellation Software itself, instead of its operating group, Perseus. The Amended Answer with Counterclaims is the Company’s operative pleading in this matter, and through it, the Company asserts that CAKE breached the APA by failing to pay the Company an earn-out, calculated in accordance with the APA, over a three-year period and totaling no less than $12,375,000, and that CAKE failed to pay the Company a $500,000 holdback amount. The Company further alleges that Constellation Software is the alter ego of CAKE, and therefore, is also liable under the APA. Through its amended counterclaims, the Company seeks compensatory damages of no less than $12,875,000, encompassing the earn-out amounts owed and the holdback amount, plus attorneys' fees, interests and costs, and other such relief as the court may deem just and proper.

The Company has determined that potential losses in this matter are neither probable or reasonably possible at this time.

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Going Concern

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2024, we had $~~225~~263,~~415~~702 in unrestricted cash and $7,~~489~~632,~~389~~488 in notes payable.

Management’s plan to continue as a going concern includes raising capital in the form of debt or equity, growing its existing business acquired under the Ranco Agreement, managing and reducing operating and overhead costs and continuing to pursue strategic transactions and opportunities including launching an e-commerce network focused on the sale of general wellness CBD, products.

Management continues to explore raising additional capital through a combination of debt financing, other non-dilutive financing and/or equity financing to supplement the Company’s capitalization and liquidity. If we raise additional funds by issuing debt securities or preferred stock, or by incurring loans, these forms of financing would have rights, preferences, and privileges senior to those of holders of our Common Stock. The availability and the terms under which we may be able to raise additional capital could be disadvantageous, and the terms of debt financing or other non-dilutive financing may involve restrictive covenants and dilutive financing instruments, which could place significant restrictions on our operations. If we raise capital through the issuance of additional equity, such sales and issuance would dilute the ownership interests of the existing holders of Common Stock. There can be no assurances that any additional debt, other non-dilutive and/or equity financing would be available to us on favorable terms or at all. We expect to continue to incur net losses, comprehensive losses, and negative cash flows from operating activities as we continue to expand our operations to meet anticipated demand.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, who is our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that as of ~~June~~September 30, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2024, in order to remediate the segregation of duties and other deficiencies initially created by the departure of our accounting department in June 2019, we hired accounting consultants to perform our account reconciliations and other day-to-day accounting requirements. The internal control structure was also documented and assessed in the areas of financial reporting and disclosure controls as it relates to our continuing operations. In addition, we revised and improved the use of our systems for getting appropriate approvals for purchases and other activities that require authorization. However, our ability to file timely reports is heavily dependent on having the necessary financial resources to pay consultants and other outside service providers involved with performing key elements of our disclosure and financial reporting controls. Our current financial condition, has temporarily hindered our ability to file timely reports for this reason. As a result, we have assessed our disclosure controls and controls over financial reporting as not effective.
