Basis of Presentation

   

These unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial reporting and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. They do not include all information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statement disclosure. However, except as disclosed herein, there have been no material changes in the information contained in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Operating results for the period ended June 29, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the information included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed on March 18, 2013 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

   

Effective fiscal 2013, the Company began to report quarterly results on a 4-4-5 basis, with the quarter ending on the Saturday closest to the last day of each third month.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim balance sheet and related interim statement of operations and cash flows include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items, necessary for their fair presentation in conformity with U.S. GAAP. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions.

   

The Company evaluated events occurring between, June 29, 2013, and the date financial statements were issued.

Operating Expenses

During the thirteen-week period ended June 29, 2013, we recorded operating expenses of $2,944,399, compared to operating expenses of $2,064,776 for the same period in 2012.

Operating expenses consisted of:

  • $180,625 (2012: $57,905) in advertising and promotion;
  • $302,871 (2012: $54,226) in amortization and depreciation;
  • $89,372 (2012: $215,871) in consulting and contract labour;
  • $302,353 (2012: $226,574) in general and administrative;

  • $378,619 (2012: $Nil) in facility costs;
  • $225,699 (2012: $261,027) in professional fees;
  • $36,686 (2012: $214,669) in research and development; and
  • $945,016 (2012: $1,034,504) in salaries and benefits

Advertising and promotion expenses increased to $180,625 for the thirteen-week period ended June 29, 2013, from $57,905 for the same period in 2012. The increase in advertising and promotion was primarily due to an increase in sales development costs the Company incurred that were made to facilitate future revenue streams and customer relations.

Amortization and depreciation expenses increased to $302,871 for the thirteen-week period ended June 29, 2013, from $54,226 for the same period in 2012. The increase is due to the decortication equipment and leasehold improvements placed into production commencing January 1, 2013 as the facility in Pamplico started production.

Consulting and contract labor expenses decreased to $89,372 for the thirteen-week period ended June 29, 2013, from $215,871, compared to the same period in 2012 was primarily due to decrease in stock-based compensation and the reduction of consultants that were utilized during the thirteen-week period for 2013.

General and administrative expenses increased to $302,353 for the thirteen-week period ended June 29, 2013, compared to $226,574 for the same period in 2012. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to travel and office costs. Repairs and maintenance expenses are now included in this expense category where they previously were classified under research and development expense.

Interest expenses increased to $483,248 for the thirteen-week period ended June 29, 2013, compared to $Nil for the same period in 2012. The increase is directly attributable to the interest incurred on the existing convertible debentures.

Facility costs were $378,619 for the thirteen-week period ended June 29, 2013, compared to $Nil for the same period in 2012. Production did not commence until January 1, 2013 which is the reason there were no expenses in 2012.

Professional fees were $225,699 for the thirteen-week period ended June 29, 2013, compared to $261,027 for the same period in 2012. The decrease is a primarily due to a decrease in accounting fees.

Research and development costs were $36,686 for the thirteen-week period ended June 29, 2013, compared to $214,669 for the same period in 2012. The decrease is a result of the Company coming out of the development stage and into production. Furthermore, repairs and maintenance expenses were classified under this category in 2012.

Salaries and benefits expenses decreased to $945,016 for the thirteen-week period ended June 29, 2013, compared with $1,034,504 for the three month period in 2013. This decrease was caused primarily by a reduction in stock based compensation due to the fact that there were fewer stock options outstanding and exercisable as at June 29, 2013.

Net Loss

Our net loss during the thirteen-week period ended June 29, 2013, was ($3,031,810), or ($0.07) loss per share, compared to ($1,441,724), or ($0.03) loss per share, during the three month period ended June 30, 2012. During the thirteen week period ended June 29, 2013, the Company wrote down the value of its raw flax fiber feedstock and decorticated fiber inventory to a lower net realizable value by $477,378 (2012 – $Nil) due to the expected decortication yield rate that was experienced during production. There was also a gain of $407,620 (2012 – $623,052) due to the change in the value of the derivative liabilities as at June 29, 2013.

Professional fees were $479,135 for the twenty-six week period ended June 29, 2013, compared to $398,582 for the same period in 2012.

Research and development costs were $92,955 for the twenty-six week period ended June 29, 2013, compared to $353,105 for the same period in 2012.

Discontinued Operations - HTNaturals

During fiscal 2009, we closed our apparel business, which operated under the brand name “HTnaturals”. The apparel business is classified as discontinued operations in our consolidated financial statements. We decided to close our apparel division to focus on our CRAiLAR® and CRAiLEXTM technology. The warehouse lease was not renewed, the sales team was terminated or re-assigned and all other elements of our apparel division were discontinued.

Plan of Operation

“With CRAiLAR®, we have seen fibers grown by sunlight and rainfall perform better than those engineered in a laboratory. At CRAiLAR, we employ environmentally sustainable farming and manufacturing practices because they yield a superior fiber, utilize fewer resources, and prove that the path forward begins with a return to nature.”

Partnerships and Industry Expertise

The Company has identified South and North Carolina as an ideal region for growing winter flax crops and is testing Minnesota for growing summer flax.

As a result of identifying this geographical area as an ideal growing region, we decided to locate our initial development in the Williamsburg and Florence counties of South Carolina. The Company is developing a flax fiber industry based around our CRAiLAR® fiber technology; from the contracting of crops through to the processing of the fiber.

Our first commercialization partner, Hanesbrands, is headquartered in North Carolina. Hanesbrands uses contract spinners located throughout the states of North and South Carolina. Therefore, being able to grow textile grade fiber in this region allows the Company to take advantage of strategic logistical opportunities.

We entered into a sub-lease of a low volume decortication facility located in Kingstree, South Carolina, in early August of 2010. The facility was originally established under a USDA flax initiative. The equipment in this facility is designed to mechanically separate the flax fiber from the rest of the plant. This stage is called decortication. This is the first step of our process before it goes through our patented CRAiLAR® wet process. We have used this facility to prove the viability of flax farming in this region, perfect our decortication process and to commence early volumes of CRAiLAR® fiber to our commercial partners. We have extended the original lease until December 31, 2013, and plan to use the facility for flax cleaning and storage purposes. The Company plans to decommission the facility during December 2013 at a minimum expense.

In addition to signing our joint development agreements with key consumer brands such as Hanesbrands and Georgia Pacific, CRAiLAR has licensed several industry leading third party processors to assist in the scale-up of our fiber processing and yarn development.

18


Earlier this year, CRAiLAR completed agreements with industry leaders, all of whom are critical to various parts of the overall process. In an effort to increase capacity, share industry knowledge and spur innovation, the following experts were enlisted to partner and participate in CRAiLAR’s growth and expansion:

Tuscarora Yarns of Greensboro NC are a highly innovative yarn spinner, capable of blending CRAiLAR® with fibers other than cotton, to broaden our market capabilities in performance sportswear, higher end fashion and outerwear. This is a strategic initiative that will add to the CRAiLAR® list of performance attributes, while strengthening our brand capabilities at the consumer interface.

Tintoria Piana, a textile company dating back to 1582 in Biella, Italy, which is a privately held family-owned business which has dyed fiber for the traditional apparel business for more than 60 years and operates principally out of Cartersville, Georgia, will execute the CRAiLAR® enzymatic process, augmenting the Company’s plans for manufacturing capacity. Tintoria Piana processed fiber for research and development purposes in 2012.

In an effort to further streamline the overall supply chain for brand partners, CRAiLAR is currently in discussions with Parkdale Mills of Gastonia, NC. Founded in 1916, Parkdale has successfully managed to sustain—and enhance its reputation as a market leading yarn spinner through a commitment to innovation. Parkdale Mills has 25 plants and 2,300 employees operating in three different countries: the U.S., Colombia and Mexico.

Agronomics Plan - USDA

In order to further develop our agronomic know-how and our ability to produce fiber capable of being spun into finer-gauge yarns suitable for undergarments, shirting and finer-knit garments CRAiLAR entered into growing trials with Hanesbrands and the USDA-ARS in January of 2012. These trials were designed to enable us to move to an unprecedented level of flax-fiber refinement by allowing us to develop flax strains capable of accessing all sectors of the industry. The research project has resulted in test acres of flax being planted in the Kingstree region the past two winters. Flax grown in South and North Carolina is typically harvested in May and the is left to dew ret in the fields before being baled for entering the CRAiLAR® process. Growers typically are able to plant summer crops, such as soybeans, in time for a full summer season proving the viability of flax as a winter rotation crop in the South East. We have also identified other suitable North American growing regions, such as Minnesota and Maine, and have planted test plots in Alabama and Georgia.

In March 2012, the Company appointed Mr. Steve Sandroni as Vice President of Agriculture. Mr. Sandroni brings more than 34 years of experience working in various aspects of agribusiness to the Company. Mr. Sandroni oversees the Company’s global agricultural efforts. He liaises with farmers and has hired regional support staff in the Company’s primary growing regions.

By July of 2012 harvesting of the contracted flax acreage in South and North Carolina was completed. All fiber from the harvest is now on CRAiLAR’s property in Pamplico, South Carolina and is being processed through the recently commissioned decortication line.

Planting for the 2013 spring harvest has taken place during October and November and the Company contracted with growers approximately 3,000 acres of flax fiber in South Carolina and North Carolina. The harvesting of the Carolina crop took place in late June and July. The Company also expects to have up to 3,000 acres under cultivation in Minnesota for harvest in the fall. For additional flax fiber, the Company also has a relationship with a European company to supply fiber to cover any shortfall in raw feedstock availability. With the experience gained from the 2012 crop the Company expects to receive higher yields from the 2013 crop as a result of improved planting and harvesting techniques.

In the fall of 2012 the Company undertook further flax trials with the USDA-ARS and the Pee-Dee REC on the suitability of various flax varietals and crop disease prevention. The results of these trials will be available to the Company in 2013.

The Company has initiated the necessary steps to obtain approval under the Federal Crop Insurance Act for crop insurance for growers.

CRAiLAR is expanding its agronomic focus to include multiple North American and International growing regions. Expansion of the growing region will mitigate climate risk and large expenditures associated with harvest. In the summer 2012, CRAiLAR contracted 770 acres of flax to be grown in Canada for the purpose of seed multiplication. For the summer of 2013, CRAiLAR plans to use the flax planted in Minnesota for seed multiplication and potentially for fiber feedstock. The seed produced from this harvest is expected to provide enough seed to plant approximately 20,000 acres of flax to be used as raw feedstock for the CRAiLAR® process.

Production Plan

One of the keys to the successful adoption of CRAiLAR® into the mainstream textile market is the scale up of our in-house production capabilities.

With the proceeds of our financing in July 2012, we began installing Phase I of our first fully integrated CRAiLAR® Fiber processing facility in the Florence region of South Carolina. The Company has signed a lease of an existing building in the region, for the housing of its first fully integrated decortication and enzyme treatment processing facility. The installation of our full-scale decortication facility is currently underway and purchase orders plus deposits for some of the equipment needed to enzymatically process CRAiLAR® Fiber have been issued. The installation of the equipment in the new facility commenced during the second quarter of 2012. With the completion of the September 2012 financing the Company will complete the Phase I portion (see below) of the facility build-out along with the necessary equipment purchases for the decortication process. The Company the decortication phase of the new facility became operational in the first quarter of 2013, and will ramp up production throughout 2013. At full capacity, the new facility will be capable of producing 400,000 pounds per week of decorticated bast fiber ready for the CRAiLAR® wet process. Feedstock in 2013 will come from the North America and Europe.

In addition to the installation of our full scale processing line, CRAiLAR continues to improve upon its patented enzymatic process increasing efficiencies.

In March 2012, we announced an improvement of our CRAiLAR® wet process time by 40 percent, thereby significantly increasing anticipated volume capabilities at planned facilities. The evaluation and resulting improvements were conducted internally in conjunction with research partners. The resulting changes encompass processes, as well as the utilization of industry standard equipment, including that which was purchased by the Company for its first production facility.

These reductions in overall cycle time increase throughput and production capacity in each planned facility. These efficiencies also allowed the Company to evaluate third-party manufacturers to increase overall production volume of CRAiLAR® Flax through a quicker expansion model.

As a result of this optimized process, we entered into the agreements with Tintoria Piana to execute the CRAiLAR® enzymatic process, augmenting the Company’s plans for manufacturing capacity.

During the third and fourth quarters of 2012, the Company processed fiber through its third party manufacturing partner using decorticated fiber from its smaller scale facility in Kingstree, S.C. and European sources. This fiber was used by the Company’s development partners to initiate their sales programs in preparation for commercialization in 2013.

The Company believes that outsourced manufacturing allows for earlier introduction of CRAiLAR Flax into our customers’ supply chain until an integrated facility is operational.

The Pamplico facility will start production in two phases:

o Phase I
   

In the first phase the Company will commence the mechanical separation of the bast fiber from the byproduct shive in a process called decortication. The line was commissioned in December 2012 and has been producing decorticated fiber in quarter one, 2013. CRAiLAR will then use third party manufacturers for the enzymatic process for initial CRAiLAR® sales. Using third party manufacturing for the enzyme process during Phase I allows CRAiLAR to manage its feedstock flow while simplifying its business model and building Phase II. At full capacity, the new facility will be capable of producing enough decorticated bast fiber for approximately 400,000 pounds of CRAiLAR® Fiber per week. Feedstock will come from the North America and Europe. Phase I has been financed from the proceeds of previous capital market financings.

 

 

o

Phase II

 

 

In the first or second quarter of 2014, the Company plans to complete its own wet processing facility. Once commissioned, this will provide an additional 600,000 lbs. per week of CRAiLAR® capacity to the 400,000 lbs. from third party manufacturers. Decorticated fiber for the additional capacity will come from the Company’s Pamplico decortication facility and European decorticated fiber. With the installation of the enzymatic wet processing facility the Company will have a fully integrated decortication/wet facility at its Pamplico location.

20


Phase II will have an approximate initial cost of $19 million and will create an additional 30 – 40 jobs as production comes on-line. Included in the estimate for the initial cost is the equipment necessary for Phase II with an approximate cost of $8.4 million, of which $5.2 million has already been paid. The company plans to pay for the remainder of Phase II through bank financing, customer funding and or the sale of equity.

Pamplico decorticated fiber (Phase 1) production continued in shakedown mode to optimize throughput and yield. The facility encountered issues with peripheral equipment attached to the main decortication machinery which the Company continues to fix. These malfunctions meant that the Company could not achieve the decortication equipment’s nameplate capacity as expected. Over the course of the quarter and as of the date of this document the Company has made progress addressing these issues and machine uptime has improved.

The facility in Pamplico is large enough, and the product flow layout so designed, that we can easily expand its capacity (to 400,000 lbs. per week) by adding equipment without the need for large additional build-out costs.

The Company also plans to expand into Europe beginning in the third quarter, 2013. The Company will purchase special cleaning line equipment to be used in the cleaning of European fiber. The cost of this equipment, installed, will be approximately $800,000.

Production Model

Note on Plan of Operation

While the Company expects that profitable operations will be achieved in the future, there can be no assurance that revenue, margins, and profitability will increase, or be sufficient to support operations over the long term. Management expects that the Company will need to raise additional capital to meet short and long-term operating requirements. Management believes that private placements of equity capital and debt financing may be adequate to fund the Company’s long-term operating requirements. Management may also encounter business endeavors that require significant cash commitments or unanticipated problems or expenses that could result in a requirement for additional cash. If the Company raises additional funds through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities other than to current shareholders, the percentage ownership of current shareholders would be reduced, and such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to the Company’s common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, the Company may not be able to take advantage of prospective business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict business operations. Management is continuing to pursue external financing alternatives to improve the Company’s working capital position and to grow the business to the greatest possible extent.

Item 3.              Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Currency risk

The Company is exposed to currency risk to the extent that certain inventory and equipment is purchased from Europe in Euros. In addition, the Company has long-term debt denominated in Canadian Dollars. The Company does not currently hedge its foreign currency exposure and accordingly is at risk for foreign currency exchange fluctuations. The Company and its subsidiaries do not have significant transactions or hold significant cash denominated in currencies other than their functional currencies.

Credit risk

The risk in cash accounts is managed through the use of a major financial institution which has high credit quality as determined by the rating agencies. As at June 29, 2013, the Company does not have significant concentrations of credit exposure.

Interest rate risk

All term debt has fixed interest rates and the Company has no significant exposure to interest rate fluctuation risk.

Commodity price risk

Commodity price risk is the risk that the fair value of future cash flows will fluctuate because of changes in the market prices of commodities. The Company is exposed to commodity price risk as it purchases flax seed in the production of fiber. The Company does not currently enter into futures contracts or otherwise hedge its exposure to commodity price risk.

Management is not aware of any other legal proceedings pending or that have been threatened against us or our properties.

Item 1A.            Risk Factors

An investment in our common stock involves a number of very significant risks. You should carefully consider the following risks and uncertainties in addition to other information in evaluating our company and its business before purchasing shares of our common stock. Our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed due to any of the following risks. The risks described below are all of the material risks that we are currently aware of that are facing our company. Additional risks not presently known to us may also impair our business operations. You could lose all or part of your investment due to any of these risks.

Risks Related to Our Business

We Have a History of Operating Losses and There Can Be No Assurance We Will Be Profitable in the Future.

We have a history of operating losses, expect to continue to incur losses, may never be profitable, and must be considered to be in the development stage. Further, we have been dependent on sales of our equity securities and debt financing to meet our cash requirements. We have incurred net losses totaling approximately $6,268,096 for the twenty-six week period ended June 29, 2013 and $4,230,690 for the twenty-six week period ended June 30, 2012. As of June 29, 2013, we had accumulated deficits of $20,185,283. As at June 29, 2013 we had cash and cash equivalents of $593,855 and working capital of $229,329. Further, we do not expect positive cash flow until Q1 2014.

We Will Need to Raise Capital To Continue Our Operations.

Based upon our historical losses from operations, we may require additional funding in the future. If we cannot obtain capital through financings or otherwise, our ability to execute our development plans and achieve profitable operational levels will be greatly limited. Historically, we have funded our operations through the issuance of equity, convertible debenture and bank debt financing arrangements. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on favorable terms, if at all. Our future cash flows and the availability of financing will be subject to a number of variables, including demand for CRAiLAR® and CRAiLEXTM technologies. Further, debt financing could lead to a diversion of cash flow to satisfy debt-servicing obligations and create restrictions on business operations. If we are unable to raise additional funds, it would have a material adverse effect upon our operations.

A Commercial Market Must Be Found for Our By-products.

Markets need to be found and developed for the by-products of our decortication process or it could have an effect on our profitability. Although several opportunities for the sale of our by-products are being explored, no contracts for the off take of our by-products have been signed as of the date of this report.

25


Our Success is Dependent Upon the Acceptance of CRAiLAR® Technology.

Our success depends upon our achieving significant market acceptance of our CRAiLAR® Technology and demand for our products. Acceptance of our CRAiLAR® Technology will depend on the success of our and our partners’ promotional and marketing efforts and ability to attract customers. To date, we have not spent significant funds on marketing and promotional efforts, although in order to increase awareness of our products we expect our partners to spend a significant amount on promotion, marketing and advertising in the future. If these expenses fail to develop an awareness of our CRAiLAR® Technology and products, these expenses may never be recovered and we may never be able to generate any significant future revenues. In addition, even if awareness of our CRAiLAR® Technology increases, we may not be able to produce enough product to meet demand.

We May Be Unable to Retain Key Employees or Management Personnel.

The loss of any of our key officers and management personnel would have an adverse impact on our future development and could impair our ability to succeed. Our performance is substantially dependent upon the expertise of our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Kenneth Barker and our Chief Innovation Officer, Mr. Jason Finnis, and other key management personnel and our ability to continue to hire and retain such personnel. Messrs. Barker, Sanders, Finnis, Prevost, Robinson and Nalbach spend substantially all, or most, of their working time with us and our subsidiaries. It may be difficult to find sufficiently qualified individuals to replace Mr. Barker, Mr. Sanders, Mr. Finnis, Mr. Prevost, Mr. Robinson, Mr. Nalbach, Ms. Harrison or other key management personnel if we were to lose any one or more of them. The loss of Mr. Barker, Mr. Sanders, Mr. Finnis, Mr. Robinson, Mr. Nalbach or Mr. Prevost, or any of our other key management personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business, development, financial condition, and operating results. We maintain “key person” life insurance on our senior executive officers.

Our Officers and Directors May Be Subject to Conflicts of Interest.

Certain of our officers and directors may be subject to conflicts of interest. Certain of our directors devote part of their working time to other business endeavors, including consulting relationships with other entities, and have responsibilities to other entities. Such conflicts include deciding how much time to devote to our affairs, as well as what business opportunities should be presented to us. Because of these relationships, certain of our directors may be subject to conflicts of interest. Currently, we have no policy in place to address such conflicts of interest. However, such directors have acknowledged their fiduciary duty to perform their duties in our best interest and those of our shareholders.

Government Regulation and Trade Restrictions Could Have a Negative Impact on Our Business.

Governments or special interest groups may attempt to protect existing industries through the use of duties, tariffs or public relations campaigns. These efforts may adversely affect interest in and demand for our CRAiLAR® Technology.

Moreover, any negative changes to international treaties and regulations such as NAFTA and to the effects of international trade agreements and embargoes imposed by such entities such as the World Trade Organization which could result in a rise in trade quotas, duties, taxes and similar impositions or which could limit the countries from whom we can purchase component materials, or which could limit the countries where we or our customers might market and sell products created using CRAiLAR® Technology, which could have an adverse effect on our business.

The laws, regulations, policies or current administrative practices of any government body, organization or regulatory agency in the United States or any other jurisdiction, may be changed, applied or interpreted in a manner which will fundamentally alter our ability to carry on business. The actions, policies or regulations, or changes thereto, of any government body or regulatory agency, or other special interest groups, may have a detrimental effect on us. Any or all of these situations may have a negative impact on our ability to operate and/or our profitability.

If Our Competitors Misappropriate Unpatented Proprietary Know-How and Our Trade Secrets, It May Have a Material Adverse Effect on Our Business.

The loss of or inability to enforce our trademark CRAiLAR® and other proprietary know-how, including our CRAiLAR® and CRAiLEXTM process, and trade secrets could adversely affect our business. We depend heavily on trade secrets and the design expertise of our employees. If any of our competitors copy or otherwise gains access to our trade secrets or develops similar technologies or processes independently, we would not be able to compete as effectively. The measures we take to protect our trade secrets and design expertise may not be adequate to prevent their unauthorized use. Further, the laws of foreign countries may provide inadequate protection of such intellectual property rights. We may need to bring legal claims to enforce or protect such intellectual property rights. Any litigation, whether successful or unsuccessful, could result in substantial costs and diversions of resources. In addition, notwithstanding the rights we have secured in our intellectual property, other persons may bring claims against us that we have infringed on their intellectual property rights or claims that our intellectual property right interests are not valid. Any claims against us, with or without merit, could be time consuming and costly to defend or litigate and therefore could have an adverse effect on our business.

26


Currency Fluctuations May Cause Translation Gains and Losses.

A significant portion of our expenses are incurred in Canadian dollars. As a result, appreciation in the value of these currencies relative to the United States dollar could adversely affect our operating results. Foreign currency translation gains and losses arising from normal business operations are credited to or charged against other income for the period incurred. Fluctuations in the value of Canadian dollars relative to United States dollars may cause currency translation gains and losses.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

Sales of a Substantial Number of Shares of Our Common Stock May Result in Significant Downward Pressure on the Price of Our Common Stock and Could Affect Your Ability to Realize the Current Trading Price of Our Common Stock.

As of June 29, 2013, there were 44,472,698 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding. Further, as of June 29, 2013 there were an aggregate of 6,498,782 stock options outstanding exercisable into 6,498,782 shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $1.81 per share and 2,881,342 share purchase warrants outstanding exercisable into 2,881,342 shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $4.29 per share.

Any significant downward pressure on the price of our common stock as certain stockholders sell their shares of our common stock may encourage short sales. Any such short sales could place further downward pressure on the price of our common stock.

The Trading Price of Our Common Stock on the OTC Bulletin Board Has Been and May Continue to Fluctuate Significantly and Stockholders May Have Difficulty Reselling Their Shares.

During our fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, our common stock has traded as low as $1.75 and as high as $3.58. In addition to volatility associated with Bulletin Board securities in general, the value of your investment could decline due to the impact of any of the following factors upon the market price of our common stock:

  • changes in the demand for flax and other eco-friendly products;

  • disappointing results from our or our partners’ marketing and sales efforts;

  • failure to meet our revenue or profit goals or operating budget;

  • decline in demand for our common stock;

  • downward revisions in securities analysts’ estimates or changes in general market conditions;

  • lack of funding generated for operations;

  • investor perception of our industry or our business prospects; and

  • general economic trends.

In addition, stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations and the market prices of securities have been highly volatile. These fluctuations are often unrelated to operating performance and may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. As a result, investors may be unable to sell their shares at a fair price and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Additional Issuances of Equity Securities May Result in Dilution to Our Existing Stockholders.

Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 100,000,000 shares of common stock. The Board of Directors has the authority to issue additional shares of our capital stock to provide additional financing in the future and the issuance of any such shares may result in a reduction of the book value or market price of the outstanding shares of our common stock. If we do issue any such additional shares, such issuance also will cause a reduction in the proportionate ownership and voting power of all other stockholders. As a result of such dilution, if you acquire shares of our common stock, your proportionate ownership interest and voting power could be decreased. Further, any such issuances could result in a change of control.

We are not authorized to issue shares of preferred stock. However, there are provisions of British Columbia law that permit a company’s board of directors, without shareholder approval, to issue shares of preferred stock with rights superior to the rights of the holders of shares of common stock. As a result, shares of preferred stock could be issued quickly and easily, adversely affecting the rights of holders of shares of common stock and could be issued with terms calculated to delay or prevent a change in control or make removal of management more difficult. Although we have no present plans to issue any shares of preferred stock, the issuance of preferred stock in the future could adversely affect the rights of the holders of common stock and reduce the value of the common stock.

Our Common Stock is Classified as a “Penny Stock” Under SEC Rules Which Limits the Market for Our Common Stock.

Because our stock is not traded on the NASDAQ National Market or the NASDAQ Small Cap Market, and because the market price of the common stock is less than $5 per share, the common stock is classified as a “penny stock.” Our stock has not traded above $5 per share. SEC Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that recommend the purchase or sale of penny stocks to persons other than those who qualify as an “established customer” or an “accredited investor.” This includes the requirement that a broker-dealer must make a determination that investments in penny stocks are suitable for the customer and must make special disclosures to the customers concerning the risk of penny stocks. Many broker-dealers decline to participate in penny stock transactions because of the extra requirements imposed on penny stock transactions. Application of the penny stock rules to our common stock reduces the market liquidity of our shares, which in turn affects the ability of holders of our common stock to resell the shares they purchase, and they may not be able to resell at prices at or above the prices they paid.

We Are a Canadian Company and a Majority of Our Directors and Many of Our Officers Are Canadian Citizens and/or Residents, Which Could Make It Difficult for Investors to Enforce Judgments Against Us in the United States.

We are a company incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada and a majority of our directors and many of our officers reside in Canada. Therefore, it may be difficult for investors to enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against us or any of our directors or officers. All or a substantial portion of such persons’ assets may be located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process on our directors or officers, or enforce within the United States or Canada any judgments obtained against us or our officers or directors, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof. Consequently, you may be effectively prevented from pursuing remedies under U.S. federal securities laws against them. In addition, investors may not be able to commence an action in a Canadian court predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States. We have been advised by our Canadian counsel that there is doubt as to the enforceability, in original actions in Canadian courts, of liability based upon the U.S. federal securities laws and as to the enforceability in Canadian courts of judgments of U.S. courts obtained in actions based upon the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws. Therefore, it may not be possible to enforce those actions against us or any of our directors or officers.

A Decline in the Price of Our Common Stock Could Affect Our Ability to Raise Further Working Capital and Adversely Impact Our Operations.

A decline in the price of our common stock could result in a reduction in the liquidity of our common stock and a reduction in our ability to raise additional capital for our operations. Because our operations to date have been principally financed through the sale of equity securities, a decline in the price of our common stock could have an adverse effect upon our liquidity and our continued operations. A reduction in our ability to raise equity capital in the future would have a material adverse effect upon our business plan and operations, including our ability to continue our current operations. If our stock price declines, we may not be able to raise additional capital or generate funds from operations sufficient to meet our obligations.

Item 2.              Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

During our quarterly period ended July 29, 2013, we did not issue any unregistered sales of equity securities other than as described below.

On April 16, 2013, we issued 37,500 unregistered, restricted common shares upon the exercise of previously issued warrants at an exercise price of $1.25 per share for total proceeds of $46,875. With respect to such issuance, relied on an exemption from the registration requirements of the U.S. Securities Act provided by Rule 506 of Regulation D thereunder, based on the representations and warranties provided by the investor upon exercise of such warrants.
