Overview
mCig, Inc. (mCig) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 30, 2010 originally under the name Lifetech Industries, Inc. Effective August 2, 2013, the name was changed from “Lifetech Industries, Inc.” to “mCig, Inc.” reflecting the new business model. Since October 2013, we have positioned ourselves as atechnology company focused on two long-term secular trends:
(1) The decriminalization and legalization of marijuana for medicinal or recreational purposes – legalizing medicinal and recreational marijuana usage is steadily on the rise not only domestically but also internationally.Marijuana has been decriminalized in over twenty countries, in over five continents. Twenty three states and the District of Columbia currently have laws legalizing marijuana in some form
https://www.governing.com/govdata/safetyjustice/ statemarijuanalawsmapmedicalrecreational.html). Management believes that by 2016 it is very likely that many more states, including Alaska, California, Arizona, Maine, and Oregon, will legalize the use and sale of recreational marijuana the way Washington and Colorado have; and
(2) The adoption of electronic vaporizing cigarettes (commonly known as “eCigs”), as smokers move away from traditional cigarettes onto e-cigarettes. Smoking tobacco causes numerous health problems, including disease and death. Smoking becomes very addicting quickly, and the most difficult part is cessation. We contend that e-cigarettes offer a safer and healthier alternative to traditional tobacco cigarettes. E-cigarettes operate by heating a mixture of liquid nicotine and flavoring, which is then inhaled and exhaled in the same manner as a cigarette. However, e-cigarettes do not contain any tobacco or other dangerous additives. Scientific research has shown that the leading cause of cancer in smokers comes from the carcinogens in tobacco. As the movement towards personal health grows, smokers are trying to quit their harmful habits. Management believes that e-cigarettes provide a safe transition from harmful traditional cigarettes. On January 23, 2014, we signed a Stock Purchase Agreement with Vapolution, Inc. which manufactures and retails home-use vaporizers. In accordance with this agreement mCig, Inc. acquired 100% of Vapolution, Inc.; as part of this transaction mCig, Inc. agreed to issue 5,000,000 shares to shareholders of Vapolution, Inc. The shareholders of Vapolution, Inc. retain the right to rescind the transaction, which expired on January 23, 2015 but was extended to May 23, 2015 based on an Amended Stock Purchase Agreement executed on May 23, 2014. Subsequently, on August 25, 2015, the final payment to the shareholders of Vapolution as extended to September 30, 2015 and the right to rescind the transaction was extended to March 26, 2016.


On January 23, 2014, Paul Rosenberg, CEO of mCig, Inc. cancelled an equal amount (2,500,000 shares) of common shares owned by him resulting in a net non-dilutive transaction to existing mCig, Inc. shareholders. The remaining 2,500,000 of common shares owned by Paul Rosenberg will be cancelled to offset the 2,500,000 new shares issued from the treasury to complete the purchase of Vapolution, Inc.Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to uncollectible receivables, inventory valuation, deferred compensation and contingencies.

We base our estimates on historical performance and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates allow us to make judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.

We believe the following accounting policies are our critical accounting policies because they are important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and they require critical management judgments and estimates about matters that may be uncertain. If actual results or events differ materially from those contemplated by us in making these estimates, our reported financial condition and results of operations for future periods could be materially affected.

Revenue Recognition

Revenues are presented net of discounts. In general, we recognize revenue when
(i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. Where arrangements have multiple elements, revenue is allocated to the elements based on the relative selling price method and revenue is recognized based on our policy for each respective element. We generate revenue primarily from sales of the electronic cigarettes, components for electronic cigarettes and related accessories. We recognize revenue when the product is shipped.

Amounts billed or collected in excess of revenue recognized are recorded as deferred revenue.

Our operating results for the three months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014 are summarized as follows:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Introduction

During the six months ended October 31, 2015 we used $10,395 in operating cash flows. Our cash on hand as of October 31, 2015 was $126,095. At October 31, 2015, the Company had a working capital surplus of $342,599.

Cash Requirements

We had cash available of $126,095 as of October 31, 2015. Based on our revenues, cash on hand and current monthly burn rate, around $15,000, we believe that our operations are sufficient to fund operations through April 2016.

Sources and Uses of Cash

Operations

We had net cash used in continuing operating activities of $10,395 for the six months ended October 31, 2015, as compared to cash used of $107,975 for the six months ended October 31, 2014. Cash provided by discontinued operating activities was $39,761 for the six months October 31, 2014.

Net cash provided by continuing operations consisted primarily of the net loss of $1,083,797 offset by non-cash expenses of $1,053,105 consisting of depreciation and amortization of intangible assets of $4,064, $686,466 in common stock issued for services, and $362,575 in amortization of prepaid compensation. Additionally, changes in assets and liabilities consisted of decreases in accounts receivable of $22,141, these decreases were partially offset by increases in other receivables of $1,000, inventory of $11,037, accounts payable of $246, and deferred revenue of $9,947.

We had net cash used in continuing investing activities of $0 for the six months ended October 31, 2015 and October 31, 2014. Cash used in discontinued investing activities was $4,400 for the six months ended October 31, 2014.

Financing

Our financing activities consisted primarily of $28,803 in advances from related parties and $4,996 in repayments from related parties. Cash provided by discontinued investing activities was $94,910 for the six months ended October 31, 2014.

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, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that we consider material.


Going ConcernOur financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. Because the business is relatively new and has a short history and relatively few sales, no certainty of continuation can be stated. The accompanying financial statements for the three and six months ended October 31, 2015 and 2014 have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Company has suffered losses from operations and has an accumulated deficit, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern
