Part I  Item 1.  Description of Business  Company Background  Cannabis Sativa, Inc., formerly named Ultra Sun Corporation was incorporated under laws of Nevada in November, 2005.  We conduct some of our operations through our subsidiaries Wild Earth Naturals, Inc., a Nevada corporation, iBudtender, Inc., a Colorado corporation, Eden Holdings LLC, a Virginia limited liability company, Kubby Patent and Licenses, Limited Liability Company, a Texas limited liability company and Hi Brands International Inc., a Nevada corporation.  We acquired a wholly-owned subsidiary named Kush, a Nevada corporation, in June 2014 in exchange for shares of our common stock.  Since November 2015, Kush has been spun off and is no longer a subsidiary of the Company.  Our wholly-owned subsidiary Wild Earth Naturals, Inc. ("Wild Earth") was acquired by us in July 2013 in exchange for shares of our common stock.  We acquired a 50.1% interest in our subsidiary iBudtender, Inc., including its wholly owned subsidiary iBudtender, LLC, a California limited liability company (collectively, "iBudtender") in August of 2016 in exchange for cash and shares of our common stock. Effective August 1, 2017, we acquired a 51% interest in PrestoCorp, a Delaware corporation, in exchange for shares of our common stock.  From our inception through September 30, 2013, we were engaged in the tanning salon business and operated a tanning salon in Saratoga Springs, Utah under the name "Sahara Sun Tanning."  As a result of our acquisition of Wild Earth in July 2013, we became engaged in the herbal skin care products business.  On September 30, 2013, we sold the assets of the tanning salon business to a third party.  Our common stock is quoted for trading on the OTC Market QB under the symbol CBDS.  Our principal executive offices are located at 1646 W. Pioneer Blvd., Suite 120, Mesquite, Nevada  89027. Our telephone number is (702) 346-3906.  Business Strategy   5   We are engaged in the research, development, acquisition and licensing of specialized cannabis related products, including cannabis formulas, edibles, topicals, strains, recipes and delivery systems.  We also are engaged in marketing and branding within the cannabis space, including our trademark pending "hi" brand and others. We hold a license for a proprietary cannabis lozenge delivery methodology, and a proprietary cannabis trauma cream formula.  We have recently been awarded a U.S. patent for a strain of cannabis plant named Ecuadorian Sativa (also referred to as CTS-A or CTA).  We also have U.S. patents pending on cannabis-based compositions and methods of treating hypertension and a lozenge delivery system. We plan to license our intellectual property, including patents, branding and know-how to companies licensed under, and in full compliance with, state regulations applicable to cannabis businesses.  Through our iBudtender subsidiary, we are in the technology space with proprietary software, and an application (the “iBudtender App”) focused on sharing information between cannabis products, patients and businesses, which application we plan releasing in 2018. The iBudtender App will feature patient reviews, nutritional information, directions, warnings, local availability and more.  We intend to monetize this technology through advertisements, business to business sales and additional technology offerings.  Through its 51% owned subsidiary PrestoCorp, the Company operates a proprietary online telemedicine service that allows patients to use secure a confidential video conference technology to speak with a licensed physician for a medical marijuana evaluation. PrestoCorp currently offers its services in California, Nevada and New York and is actively targeting expansion into additional states where medical marijuana is legal.  In addition to licensing, branding and technology, we have the ability to offer, free of charge to patients, mainstream medical prescription discount cards, for which the Company will receive a small percentage on each prescription refill with the hi Benefits Discount Pharmacy Card. The Company has yet to receive monies from prescription refills but expects to do so once cards are distributed and the program implemented.  Furthermore, the Company continues to seek the acquisition of companies, intellectual property and other assets that fit within the company's strategic plan of assembling a portfolio of cannabis industry related businesses that have a high growth potential and are accretive to shareholder value.  Wild Earth Naturals, Inc.  Wild Earth Naturals, Inc. is an herbal skin care products formulation and marketing company that targets the growing natural health care products market in the United States and abroad.  We develop and manufacture high-quality, herbal based skin care products providing healthier choices to consumers.  We use specialized ingredient mixing processes to produce plant glycerite/mineral herbal blends and oil extractions, which we believe will be unique to the natural health products industry.  The ingredients for our products are and will continue to be selected to meet a number of criteria, including, but not limited to: safety, potency, purity, stability, bio-availability, and efficacy.  We plan to control the quality of our products beginning at the formulation stage and continuing through controlled sourcing of raw ingredients, manufacturing, packaging, and labeling.  iBudtender  iBudtender (www.ibudtender.com) is an online portal that offers information and patient reviews on marijuana dispensaries, cannabis businesses, marijuana strains, edibles, concentrates and products.  6   iBudtender's software has been designed to help cannabis patients find cannabis products that are right for them via patient reviews, nutritional information, directions, warnings and local availability; and order it locally for pickup or delivery. The iBudtender business platform for dispensary owners, delivery services owners and manufacturers is designed to increase business as well as promote data sharing in an effort to help patients find the best and most effective products.  PrestoCorp  PrestoCorp (“PrestoDoctor”), is an online telemedicine platform providing access to knowledgeable physicians for a safe and confidential way to get a medical marijuana recommendation using secure video conferencing technology (https://prestodoctor.com).  Appointments through PrestoDoctor's website are generally completed in 10-15 minutes, and can be scheduled and completed in the same day. This convenience eliminates the need for patients to travel to a clinic. More than 40,000 users have registered to consult with PrestoDoctor's 15+ licensed physicians across the United States. PrestoDoctor currently offers services in California, Nevada and New York, and is actively targeting expansion into multiple additional states in the coming months.  Eden Holdings LLC  Eden Holdings LLC ("Eden Holdings") was formed under the laws of Virginia as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.  Eden Holdings was formed on August 8, 2014, for the purpose of holding the intellectual property of the Company.  As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, there has been no activity in Eden Holdings.  Hi Brands International Inc.  On February 6, 2015, the Company formed Hi Brands International Inc., a Nevada Corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company ("Hi Brands").  On February 25, 2015, Hi Brands entered into a Purchase, Supply and Joint Venture Agreement (the "Agreement"), with Centuria Natural Foods, Inc. ("Centuria") whereby Cannabis Sativa would market Centuria's proprietary CBD (Cannabidiol) Rich Hemp Oil products.  No business was ever transacted under the Agreement.  The Agreement was terminated on October 6, 2016, by the mutual consent of the parties.  As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, there has been no activity in Hi Brands other than the execution of and the termination of the Agreement.  Kubby Patent and Licenses, Limited Liability Company ("KPAL").  KPAL is a Texas limited liability company which holds the Company's U.S. patent for a strain of cannabis plant named "Ecuadorian Sativa" (also known as CTS-A and CTA) and patent applications on cannabis-based compositions and methods of treating hypertension and a lozenge delivery system.  During the year ended December 31, 2016, the U.S. Patent and Trademark issued a patent to KPAL for the Ecuadorian Sativa strain of cannabis.  Perceived Cannabis Industry Trends  We believe the cannabis industry will be characterized by the following principal trends: an increased emphasis on high quality products; an increased emphasis on scientific validation for products in the market place; more liberal regulation in regard to cannabis, even under the current administration as states' rights continue to emerge; more consolidation, take-over, and buy-out of  7   companies in the retail, wholesale, and supply side channels; more mainstream companies entering the marketplace; and more funded research on the potential long-term health benefits of cannabis as well as its potential curative properties.  Vision  Our vision is to become a highly visible, diversified, international business promoting superior quality branded products and offering effective customer service, fair compensation, sound management and a great working environment. Over time, we plan to expand our branding, research and development, intellectual properties and licensing activities to reach markets worldwide.  In order to achieve this vision, our goal is to develop and/or acquire intellectual property which will allow our licensees to provide innovative and effective medicinal cannabis products and cost-effective alternatives for customers seeking quality, affordable natural health products to aid in wellness and appearance.  In conducting our day-to-day operations, we will strive to:  • Treat all colleagues and co-workers with respect & fairness.  • Follow a philosophy that says, "Delivering quality and customer satisfaction is our business."  • Develop and enhance the skills of its associates with the intention of providing financially rewarding business opportunities.  Through a long-term commitment to this vision statement, we hope to become known as a company that is committed to its customers, associates, and communities.  Products  Proprietary Cannabis Strain. The Company owns a patented cannabis sativa plant strain known as Ecuadorian Sativa or "CTA".  The Company intends to further research the CTA strain and to ultimately monetize this intellectual property through licensing agreements in conjunction with state medical marijuana laws as well as establish business relationships with scientific research organizations to develop agricultural biologic applications based upon specific plant strain research and development methodologies.  Lozenges and Edibles. The Company owns intellectual property (recipes and process/methods) for use in medical marijuana edibles and lozenges.  The Company's proprietary lozenge is unlike other edibles of which may take up to an hour or more to take effect. Based upon preliminary results, our lozenges generally take effect within a period of five to 15 minutes.  We believe the rapid acting characteristics of our lozenges will overcome a major issue with cannabis consumption, which has been the need to inhale cannabis in order to receive a rapid response.  In addition to the lozenges, we have other forms of edibles under development.  Recover. Recover Deep Penetrating Healing Balm is a fast acting anti-inflammatory pain reliever for sore muscles, joints, arthritic and back pain. Organic with hemp seed oil, menthol, capsicum, and black pepper.  Trauma Cream. Developed for blended infusion of cannabinoids and THC; Arnica is a primary ingredient for its numbing effect.  8   Face Garden.  An antioxidant, moisturizing cream for the face.  The ingredients in this formula include DMAE, Vitamins Ester C, B5, Oils of Evening Primrose and Borage Seed, which are believed to firm the skin and reduce puffiness and wrinkles, while restoring the skin to a natural glow and supple appearance. Hempseed, Neem, and Jojoba Oils are added to lock in moisture.  Body Garden.  A moisturizing body lotion designed to relieve itchy dry skin and protect against sun damage.  The ingredients in this formula include Hempseed Oil, Green Tea, and Blue Green Algae. The organic herbs, essential oils, butters, and minerals used in "Body Garden" have been formulated to provide nutrition to the skin which we believe encourages the dermis to remain healthy or return to health.  Lip Garden.  An emollient balm containing Vitamin E and Hemp Butter that we believe can assist with healing of the lips while keeping them supple and moist.  Clothing and Merchandise. We offer Wild Earth Naturals and "hi" branded logo men's and women's fashion tee shirts and sweatshirts from American Apparel, as well as caps and coffee mugs through the Company's www.wildearthnaturals.com website.  hi Benefits Discount Pharmacy Card.  The hi Benefits Discount Pharmacy Card offers unlimited use with any pharmacy in the network, never expires and is easily and instantly activated. Members can save 10%-70% on prescriptions. Membership is free and there is no need for a physical card, a member can use a digital image saved on a smartphone, or can print a card if preferable.  Prescriptions are accepted at many pharmacies including Rite Aid, CVS, Costco and Target.  Objectives  Our current strategy is to continue prosecution of the pending patents, to develop and acquire new patents, trade secrets, trademarks and other intellectual property. In addition, we will seek new branding and licensing opportunities for our intellectual property and we will seek strategic corporate and product acquisitions.  Marketing & Distribution  Market Conditions in the Cannabis Industry  Our target markets are those where states have legalized the production and use of cannabis.  Eight states plus the District of Columbia have approved ballot measures to legalize cannabis for adult recreational use.  As of December 31, 2017, 29 U.S. states, the District of Columbia and the territories of Guam and Puerto Rico have legalized the use of cannabis for medical use in some form. However, it may take multiple years for a state to establish regulations and for cannabis businesses to begin generating revenue from operations in a given state.  Non-Infused Products and Merchandise  We launched our wildearthnaturals.com website in August 2013, employing high quality graphic artists and designers. We use social media, primarily Facebook, to drive traffic to our websites.  Our online stores at www.wildearthnaturals.com are producing sales at this time.  9   During 2018, we plan to utilize direct business to business sales, internet advertising, social media market, and trade show participation to generate sales leads, orders and to entry into leading retailers and wholesalers throughout the U.S.  No assurances can be given that we will be successful in such efforts.  Infused Products  For cannabis infused products, we are developing our customer base through licensing agreements with third parties who are compliant with state cannabis laws in the states in which they conduct business.  We plan to build brand awareness by utilizing a mix of social media, trade shows, education efforts, and direct marketing to targeted businesses.  Geographic Presence  We plan to build brand awareness for our products in states where medical cannabis is legal, and to sell non-infused products throughout the United States.  Competition  Cannabis Industry  While we do not sell cannabis, we do license our intellectual property to others who do sell cannabis in states where medicinal cannabis is legal.  Therefore, we look to the participants in the medical cannabis market for information on competition, as such competition will have an effect on our ability to license our branding and other intellectual property.  We believe the competition in the cannabis market will include numerous cannabis product companies that are highly fragmented in terms of geographic market coverage, distribution channels and product categories – with companies taking a state by state approach.  We believe that competition is principally based upon price, quality, efficacy of products, branding, marketing, customer service, and trade support.  We anticipate that large pharmaceutical companies may begin to compete in the cannabis product market. These companies and certain larger entities may have broader product lines and/or larger sales volumes than companies such as ours our those of our licensees.  Larger entities entering this market may have significantly greater financial and other resources available to them and possess extensive manufacturing, distribution and marketing capabilities. We anticipate that many of the larger competitors will be able to compete more effectively due to a greater extent of vertical integration. The entry of larger competitors could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.  Skin Care  Our competition includes numerous skin care companies that are highly fragmented in terms of geographic market coverage, distribution channels, and product categories. In addition, large pharmaceutical companies compete with us in the skin care market.  These companies and certain large entities have broader product lines and larger sales volumes than us and have greater financial and other resources available to them and possess extensive manufacturing, distribution and marketing capabilities. Among our more prominent competitors are: Earthly Body, Burt's Bees,  10   Melaleuca and Clarins, all of which have substantially longer track records and greater financial resources and operating efficiencies than do we. As a company with limited capital resources, we believe will be at a competitive disadvantage until such time as we develop a broad portfolio of products that are known and accepted in the industry and we are able to demonstrate a history of financial stability. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete effectively in the market.  Technology  The competition against our information technology platform iBudtender.com and the iBudtender App, both of which will be released in 2018, include companies such as Weedmaps, Leafly, MassRoots, and Leafstrain.  Competition in the information technology market for cannabis is growing rapidly and many of our competitors are have more experience and greater financial resources than do we. As a company with limited capital resources, we may be at a competitive disadvantage in a rapidly changing information technology market.  Raw Materials and Suppliers  Our products are produced using ingredients that we believe to be readily available from several sources. We purchase our raw materials from a number of different vendors. Our apparel and merchandise are procured through Printful.com.  Intellectual Property  We hold certain intellectual property (the "IP") consisting of recipe and process/method to maximize the cannabinoid concentrations to be used to make a medical marijuana ("MMJ") edible or to make a MMJ lozenge.  We also hold rights to a proprietary recipe and process/method to maximize the cannabinoid concentrations to be used to make a salve/ointment containing CBD and Arnica Montana.  We also hold the rights of a patent for the CTA strain of cannabis and we hold two patent applications filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office with regard to use of the CTA strain in a lozenge and as a treatment for hypertension. We are continuing to pursue these applications; however, no assurances can be given that the remaining patent applications will result in the issuance of any patents.  We are also pursuing the "hi" mark in several categories filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. An objection has been filed by Tweed Corporation which wishes to use the mark on apparel. Settlement talks are ongoing.  The Company uses (or licenses) the "hi" branding for skin care products, edibles (infused and non-infused), apparel and branded merchandise.  We hold a Federal trademark on the name and stylized branding of "Wild Earth Naturals".  We have acquired the following registered U.S. Trademarks: Cannabis*Sativa(R), DISPENSARxY(R), and CannaRx(R). The IP identifiers are Cannabis*Sativa(R), Registration Number 4,868,622, DISPENSARxY(R), Registration Number 4,642,830 and CannaRx(R), Registration Number 4,725,687. The Marks are registered in CL 35 under Goods and Services.  No assurance can be given that such steps as the company has and will take will provide sufficient protection against potential competitors and we may be unable to successfully assert our intellectual property rights or these rights may be invalidated, circumvented or challenged.  Any such invalidity, particularly with  11   respect to our product names, or a successful intellectual property challenge or infringement proceeding against us, could have a material adverse effect on our business.  Effect of Existing or Probable Governmental Regulations on the Business  Cannabis is currently a Schedule I controlled substance under the Controlled Substances Act (CSA) and is, therefore, illegal under federal law. Even in those states in which the use of cannabis has been legalized pursuant to state law, its use, possession or cultivation remains a violation of federal law. A Schedule I controlled substance is defined as one that has no currently accepted medical use in the United States, a lack of safety for use under medical supervision and a high potential for abuse. The U.S. Department of Justice (the "DOJ") defines Schedule I controlled substances as "the most dangerous drugs of all the drug schedules with potentially severe psychological or physical dependence." If the federal government decides to enforce the CSA, persons that are charged with distributing, possessing with intent to distribute or growing cannabis could be subject to fines and/or terms of imprisonment, the maximum being life imprisonment and a $50 million fine, even though these persons are in compliance with state law.  In light of such conflict between federal laws and state laws regarding cannabis, the previous administration under President Obama had effectively stated that it was not an efficient use of resources to direct federal law enforcement agencies to prosecute those lawfully abiding by state-designated laws allowing the use and distribution of medical cannabis.  The new administration under President Trump could decide to strongly enforce the federal laws applicable to cannabis. See Justice Department Memo on Marijuana Enforcement discussed below.  Any such change in the federal government's enforcement of current federal laws could cause significant financial damage to us. While we do not currently harvest, distribute or sell cannabis, we may be irreparably harmed by a change in enforcement policies of the federal government.  The Company and our licensed products will also be subject to a number of other federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations.  We anticipate that our licensees and vendors will be required to manufacture our products in accordance with the Good Manufacturing Practices guidelines and will be subject to regulations relating to employee safety, working conditions, protection of the environment, and other items.  The current administration has indicated that it will closely scrutinize the cannabis industry, in particular, recreational marijuana.  Changes in laws, rules and regulations or the recall of any product by a regulatory authority, could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.  In addition to cannabis related regulations, our skin care and nutraceuticals products are subject to a number of federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations.  We are required to manufacture our products in accordance with the Good Manufacturing Practices guidelines and we are also subject to regulations relating to employee safety, working conditions, protection of the environment, and other items.  Changes in such laws, rules and regulations or the recall of any product by a regulatory authority, could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.  Justice Department Memo on Marijuana Enforcement  Because of the inconsistencies in federal and state law, on January 4, 2018, the Department of Justice (DOJ) issued a memo on federal marijuana enforcement policy announcing what it deemed to be a return to the rule of law and the rescission of previous guidance documents which would include the so called Cole Memorandum. Since the passage of the Controlled Substances Act in  12   1970, Congress has generally prohibited the cultivation, distribution, and possession of marijuana.  In the memorandum, Attorney General Jeff Sessions directs all U.S. Attorneys to enforce the laws enacted by Congress and to follow well-established principles when pursuing prosecutions related to marijuana activities. The DOJ asserts this return to the rule of law is also a return of trust and local control to federal prosecutors who know where and how to deploy Justice Department resources most effectively to reduce violent crime, stem the tide of the drug crisis, and dismantle criminal gangs.  "It is the mission of the Department of Justice to enforce the laws of the United States, and the previous issuance of guidance undermines the rule of law and the ability of our local, state, tribal, and federal law enforcement partners to carry out this mission," said Attorney General Jeff Sessions. "Therefore, today's memo on federal marijuana enforcement simply directs all U.S. Attorneys to use previously established prosecutorial principles that provide them all the necessary tools to disrupt criminal organizations, tackle the growing drug crisis, and thwart violent crime across our country."   We intend to conduct rigorous due diligence to verify the legality of all activities that we engage in and ensure that our activities do not interfere with any of the enforcement priorities of the Department of Justice.  Research and Development  We plan to continue to conduct research and development activities with an initial focus on the following:  • Identify and research new strains of cannabis and combinations of cannabis and cannabinoid nutrients that may be candidates for new products;  • Identify and research products, including intellectual property, that will benefit enhance or benefit the cannabis industry, from cultivation to consumers;  • Introduce new herbal ingredients for use in supplements;  • Study the metabolic activities of existing and newly identified ingredients;  • Enhance existing products, as new discoveries in cannabis are made;  • Formulate products to meet diverse regulatory requirements across all of its markets;  • Investigate processes for improving the production of its formulated products; and  • Investigate activities of natural extracts and formulated products in laboratory and clinical settings.  It is through our internal research and development efforts and our relationships with outside research organizations and health care providers that we believe we will be able to develop high quality products. We plan for our research and development activities to include developing products that are new to the industry, updating existing formulas to keep them current with the  13   latest science, and adapting existing formulas to meet ever-changing regulations in new and existing domestic markets.  We will select our ingredients to meet a number of criteria, including, but not limited to: safety, potency, purity, stability, bio-availability, and efficacy. We will require our licensees and vendors to control the quality of our products beginning at the formulation stage, and maintain quality control through controlled sourcing of raw ingredients, manufacturing, packaging, and labeling.  Going forward, we intend to increase our spending and resources for research and development.  Environmental Laws  We have no known costs, and none are anticipated, from environmental laws, rules and regulations.  Number of Total Employees and Number of Full Time Employees  As of March 26, 2018, we had 1 employee, not including our 5 executive officers who receive no cash salary.  Our employees are not represented by unions and we consider our relationship with our employees to be good. The Company also has relationships with several independent contractors who provide services to the Company on a regular and on-going basis.  Facilities  Our office, warehouse, R&D and manufacturing facility is located at 1646 W. Pioneer Blvd., Suite 120, Mesquite, Nevada.  The leased space constitutes a total of 2,539 square feet.  The building is in an industrial park setting, and a new exit off of Interstate 15 was recently completed, indicating more growth in the area which is the fastest growing city in Nevada. We pay a total of $1,392 per month for our space.  The Company also leases an office in Nevada for $1,500 per month, an office space in New York for $800 per month, and office space in San Francisco, California for $2,800 per month  Item 1A.  Risk Factors Not required. Item 1B.  Unresolved Staff Comments.  None  Item 3.  Legal Proceedings.

(“FINRA”) under the symbol “CBDS”.  Set forth below are the high and low closing bid prices for our common stock for each quarter of 2016 and 2017.  All prices listed herein reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commissions and may not represent actual transactions.

Holders of Record  On March 26, 2018, there were 60 holders of record of our common stock, as reported by the Company’s transfer agent.  In computing the number of holders of record, each broker-dealer and clearing corporation holding shares on behalf of its customers is counted as a single stockholder.  No Dividends  No dividends have ever been paid on our securities, and we have no current plans to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.  Equity Compensation Plan  During 2017, the Company adopted the Cannabis Sativa, Inc. 2017 Stock Plan which authorizes the board of directors to issue up an aggregate of 3,000,000 shares of common stock to allow the Company to compensate employees and consultants from time to time by issuing them shares of  15   Company common stock in return for services provided to the Company rather than paying for the services in cash thereby depleting the cash assets of the Company.  Under the plan there were no set issuances of stock to which any party is entitled.  Distributions are only allowed pursuant to the discretion of the board of directors if and when it is in the best interest of the Company to make any distribution.  Transfer Agent  Colonial Stock Transfer Co., Inc., 66 Exchange Place, Suite 100, Salt Lake City, Utah 84111, telephone (801) 355-5740, serves as the transfer agent and registrar for our common stock.  Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities  During the quarter ended December 31, 2017, the Company issued 194,674 shares of restricted common stock to officers and consultants.  Special Sales Practice Requirements with Regard to “Penny Stocks”  To protect investors from patterns of fraud and abuse that have occurred in the market for low priced securities commonly referred to as “penny stocks,” the SEC has adopted regulations that generally define a “penny stock” to be any equity security having a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share, or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions.  Our stock is subject to the “penny stock” regulations during periods in which the price is below $5.00 per share.  During any such periods, broker-dealers selling our common stock are subject to additional sales practices when they sell our stock to persons other than established clients and “accredited investors.”  For transactions covered by these rules, before the transaction is executed, the broker-dealer must make a special customer suitability determination, receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction and deliver a risk disclosure document relating to the penny stock market.  The broker-dealer must also disclose the commission payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative taking the order, current quotations for the securities and, if applicable, the fact that the broker-dealer is the sole market maker and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market.  Monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.  Such “penny stock” rules may restrict trading in our common stock and may deter broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our common stock.  Item 6.  Selected Financial Data  Not Applicable.  The Company is a “smaller reporting company” and not subject to the Selected Financial Data requirement of Item 6.  Item 7.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations  Certain statements in this Report constitute “forward-looking statements.” Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include, among others, uncertainties relating to general  16   economic and business conditions; industry trends; changes in demand for our products and services; uncertainties relating to customer plans and commitments and the timing of orders received from customers; announcements or changes in our pricing policies or that of our competitors; unanticipated delays in the development, market acceptance or installation of our products and services; changes in government regulations; availability of management and other key personnel; availability, terms and deployment of capital; relationships with third-party equipment suppliers; and worldwide political stability and economic growth. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend” and “plan” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date the statement was made.  Results of Operations  Fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 compared with fiscal year ended December 31, 2016  Revenue for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $317,985 and $29,168, respectively. Cost of revenues for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $154,451 and $27,321, respectively. Gross profit for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $163,534 and $1,847, respectively.  The increase in each of the numbers for 2017 is primarily a result of the acquisition of a 51% interest in PrestoCorp as of August 1, 2017, and the impact of the business operations of PrestoCorp on the business operations of the Company  Net loss for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 was $7,811,489 compared to net loss of $3,154,599 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.  The increase resulted from higher marketing and advertising costs, increased utilization of consulting services, as well as a significant increase in value of the stock issued for compensation of management, consultants, board members, and attorneys.  Total operating expenses were $8,010,622 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 and $2,831,417 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.  The bulk of the expenses for both years were paid using the Company’s common stock and therefore required no cash.  In 2017, consulting and legal services were incurred in the amount of $4,729,452.  In 2016, the large non-cash transaction was also stock issued for services in the amount of $2,643,067.  Despite the large net loss amounts for both years, because of non-cash transactions, the net cash used in operating activities was $1,162,732 for 2017 and $252,018 for 2016.   A large part of the operating expenses totaling $8,010,622 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, was comprised of payments to consultants, directors, and management for services rendered to the Company.  Most consultants were paid in fixed amounts of stock.  When our stock price rose during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, the associated expense for services rose also as the stock was issued for compensation as agreed.  Compensation agreements with consultants have now been revised and are now payable in stock based on fixed dollar amounts rather than fixed number of shares.  Because of this, we project our operating expenses for those services will be lower by approximately one-half in the 2018 fiscal year.  17   Liquidity and Capital Resources  As stated above, our operations used $800,883 in cash for the year ended December 31, 2017. During the same year, financing activities provided cash of $1,042,370. Cash required during 2017 came from cash proceeds from issuance of notes payable in the amount of $321,714 and cash proceeds from sales of restricted stock in the amount of $969,227.  As stated above, our operations used $252,018 in cash for the year ended December 31, 2016. During the same year, financing activities provided cash of $558,773. Cash required during 2016, came from loan proceeds from related parties in the amount of $368,781 and cash proceeds from a private offering of stock in the amount of $197,730.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  We incurred net loss of $7,811,489 and $3,154,599, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 and had an accumulated deficit of $66,790,415 as of December 31, 2017.  The Company may seek to raise money for working capital purposes through a public offering of its equity capital or through a private placement of equity capital or convertible debt.  The Company also has outstanding warrants that upon potential exercise could bring funding into the Company.  It will be important for the Company to be successful in its efforts to raise capital in this manner if it is going to be able to further its business plan in an aggressive manner.  Raising capital in this manner will cause dilution to current shareholders.  As of March 26, 2018, the Company had cash on hand of $90,154.  Much of the cash came from financing activities during 2017.  As a result, the Company has sufficient liquidity to meet the immediate needs of our current operations.  Cash represents cash deposits held at financial institutions. Cash is held at major financial institutions and insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to federal insurance limits.  Off Balance Sheet Arrangements  None  Item 7A.

Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounts and Financial Disclosure  None  Item 9A.  Controls and Procedures  Disclosure Controls and Procedures  Under the supervision and with the participation of our management including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were not effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A discussion of the material weaknesses in our controls and procedures is described below.  Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting  Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.  Our management, including our chief executive officer, chief financial officer and chief accounting officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017.  Based on its evaluation, our management concluded that there are material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as follows: lack of timely closing of books and ability to get accounting information and schedules to our auditors in a timely manner.  A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.  Additionally, management identified the following material weaknesses:  19   ·We have not performed a risk assessment and mapped our processes to control objectives; ·We have not implemented comprehensive entity-level internal controls; ·We have not implemented adequate system and manual controls; ·We did not employ an adequate number of people to ensure a control environment that would allow for the accurate and timely reporting of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP; and ·We do not have sufficient segregation of duties.  Based on our evaluation under the frameworks described above, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2017.  However, moving forward with the addition of the additional staff mentioned, we believe our current framework will help remedy our material weaknesses.  This annual report does not include an attestation report of the company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.  Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting  There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Ms. Carroll had been serving as the CFO, Director and as the Treasurer of the Company since July of 2013.  Effective January 30, 2017, she will no longer function as the Company’s CFO and will focus her efforts on her positions as Treasurer and Director and keeping the books of the Company.

Ms. Goldsberry’s thirty years of experience in the medical cannabis industry and her high-profile work in the cannabis industry in California is a natural fit as the Company prepares to expand its reach in the California medical cannabis community.  Trevor Reed. Mr. Reed has experience as a contractor, builder and cannabis producer. Mr. Reed started his first company 1989, a hardwood flooring company in Santa Fe, New Mexico. That experience led 15-year career as a custom builder of spec homes in New Mexico. Mr. Reed also engaged in small scale land development and commercial construction in New Mexico.

Mr. Reed’s curiosity and tenacity have led him to being the number one cannabis producer in the State of New Mexico for three years in a row. Mr. Reed has also consulted with State regulatory authorities regarding the development their state cannabis programs. Under Mr. Reed’s direction Natural Rx in New Mexico was the first dispensary to become a United Food and Commercial Workers International Union (UFCW) cannabis division member company in 2014.

The following is a brief description of the specific experience and qualifications, attributes or skills of each director that led to the conclusion that such person should serve as a director of the Company.  Mr. Gravel’s experience as a director of Kush prior to its acquisition by the Company is important to the continued functioning of Kush.  His contacts as a prior U.S. senator is important to the Company.  Mr. David Tobias’ knowledge regarding the business of Wild Earth and the implementation of its business plan, provides a critical link between management and the board, enabling the board to provide its oversight function with the benefit of management’s perspective of the business.  22   Ms. Carroll’s knowledge regarding the history, operations and financial condition of Wild Earth provides a critical link between management and the board, enabling the board to provide its oversight function with the benefit of management’s perspective of the business.  Mr. Downing’s background of commanding the Los Angeles Police Department’s narcotic enforcement program and his being a nationally recognized advocate for finding an exit strategy to end the war on drugs makes him an ideal choice as a board member to assist our push into the cannabis industry.  Ms. Goldsberry’s twenty-five years of experience in the medical cannabis industry and her high-profile work in the cannabis industry in California is a natural fit as the Company prepares to expand its reach in the California medical cannabis community.  Mr. Reed’s knowledge of the cannabis industry and his work with state regulators in connection with cannabis legislation brings valuable insight regarding the emerging cannabis industry and regulation to the board of directors.  Family Relationships  There are no family relationships between any of our officers and directors.  Term of Office  The term of office of each director is one year and until his or her successor is elected at the Registrant's annual stockholders' meeting and is qualified, subject to removal by the stockholders.  The term of office for each officer is for one year and until his or her successor is elected at the annual meeting of the board of directors and is qualified, subject to removal by the board of directors.  Mr. Tobias and Ms. Carroll assumed their respective offices and positions in connection with the Wild Earth acquisition in July 2013.   Except as noted below, our other officers and directors assumed their respective offices and positions in connection with the Kush acquisition in June 2014.  Mike Gravel and David Tobias have served as directors since 2014 and 2013, respectively.  However, Mike Gravel was appointed CEO and David Tobias was appointed President of the Company on March 29, 2016.  Donald Lundbom was elected CFO on June 20, 2017.  Board of Directors  Our board of directors consists of six persons, three of whom are "independent" within the meaning of Rule 5605(a)(3) of the NASDAQ Marketplace.  The three that are not independent are officers of the Company.  Our board of directors has designated an audit committee comprised of two independent directors.  The two directors who serve on this committee are Stephen Downing and Trevor Reed.  The board of directors does not have an independent "financial expert" because it does not believe the scope of the Company's activities to date has justified the expenses involved in obtaining such a financial expert.  In addition, our securities are not at this time listed on a national exchange and we are not subject to the special corporate governance requirements of any such exchange.  The board of directors has designated a compensation committee comprised of two independent directors.  The two directors who serve on this committee are Stephen Downing and Trevor Reed.  To date, the Company has not engaged independent compensation consultants to determine or recommend the amount or form of executive or director compensation.  23    The Company does not have a standing nominating committee and the Company's Board of Directors performs the functions that would customarily be performed by a nominating committee.  The Board of Directors does not believe a separate nominating committee is required at this time due to the limited resources of the Company.  The Board of Directors has not established policies with regard to the consideration of director candidates recommended by security holders or the minimum qualifications of such candidates.  Director Meetings  Generally, the Company’s Board of Directors held meetings every two weeks during 2017.  At almost every meeting every director was in attendance.  Communications with Directors  Stockholders may communicate with the Board of Directors by sending written communications addressed to the Board of Directors, or any individual director, to: Cannabis Sativa, Inc., Attention: Corporate Secretary, 1646 W. Pioneer Blvd., Suite 120, Mesquite, NV 89027.  All communications will be compiled by the corporate secretary and forwarded to the Board of Directors or any individual director, as appropriate.  In order to facilitate a response to any such communication, the Company’s Board of Directors suggests, but does not require, that any such submission include the name and contact information of the shareholder submitting the communication.  Code of Ethics  We have not adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to our executive officers, including our principal executive, financial and accounting officers.  We do not believe the adoption of a code of ethics at this time would provide any meaningful additional protection to the Company because we have only four executive officers and our business operations are not complex.  During the past ten years none of our directors, executive officers, promoters or control persons was:  1.the subject of any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; 2.convicted in a criminal proceeding or is subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); 3.subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; or 4.found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law.  Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance  Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than 10 percent of a registered class of our equity securities to file reports of securities ownership and changes in such ownership with the SEC.  Officers, directors, and greater than ten percent shareholders also are required by rules promulgated by the SEC to furnish us with copies of  24   all Section 16(a) reports they file.  Based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to us, we believe that three of the six directors need to file a Form 3.  Item 11.  Executive Compensation  The following table sets forth certain information regarding the annual compensation paid to our principal executive officer and principle financial officer in all capacities for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.  No other person served as an executive officer of the Company or received total annual compensation from the Company in excess of $100,000 other than Mr. Tobias , Mr. Gravel, Mr. Lundbom and Ms. Carroll as set forth in the table.

Opinion on the Financial Statements  We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Cannabis Sativa, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2017, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  Emphasis of Matter Regarding Going Concern  The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 12. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.  Basis for Opinion  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.  We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no opinion.  33   Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.   /s/ Hall & Company We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2017 Irvine, CA April 4, 2018  34   CANNABIS SATIVA, INC.CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETSDecember 31,December 31,20172016AssetsCurrent AssetsCash and Cash Equivalents$175,857$257,746Digital Currency230,16941,191Accounts Receivable, Net3,8132,673Prepaids1,083,769158,160Inventories8,5119,128Total Current Assets1,502,119468,898Property and Equipment, Net10,6003,858Intangible Assets, Net2,853,0592,940,968Goodwill3,346,869247,051Deposits—35,000Note Receivable - Related Party—15,000Total Assets$7,712,647$3,710,775Liabilities and  Stockholders' EquityCurrent Liabilities:Accounts Payable and Accrued Expenses$108,153$164,258Commitments and Contingencies—19,000Stock Subscriptions Payable767,603242,730Due to Related Parties623,093451,879Total Current Liabilities1,498,849877,867Total Liabilities1,498,849877,867Stockholders' Equity:Preferred stock $0.001 par value; 5,000,000 shares authorized;

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended December 31, 2017 and 2016  1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:  Nature of Corporation:  Ultra Sun Corp (the “Company,” “we” or “our”) was incorporated under the laws of Nevada in November 2004.  On November 13, 2013, we changed our name to Cannabis Sativa, Inc.   Our wholly-owned subsidiary Kush, Inc. (“Kush”) was acquired by us in June 2014 in exchange for shares of our common stock.  Our wholly-owned subsidiary Wild Earth Naturals, Inc. (“Wild Earth”) was acquired by us in July 2013 in exchange for shares of our common stock.  From our inception through September 30, 2013 we were engaged in the tanning salon business and operated a tanning salon in Saratoga Springs, Utah under the name “Sahara Sun Tanning.”  As a result of our acquisition of Wild Earth in July 2013, we became engaged in the herbal skin care products business.  On September 30, 2013, we sold the assets of the tanning salon business to a third party.  As a result of our acquisition of Kush in June 2014, along with our Wild Earth operations we are now engaged in the developing and promoting of natural cannabis products.  On November 2, 2015, Kush was spun off from the Company.  On August 8, 2016 the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with iBudtender Inc. to purchase 50.1% of iBudtender Inc.  On August 1, 2017, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with PrestoCorp, Inc. (“PrestoCorp”) to purchase 51% of PrestoCorp.  Principles of Consolidation:  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cannabis Sativa, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiary; Wild Earth Naturals, Inc., Hi-Brands International, Inc., Eden Holdings LLC, our 50.1% ownership of iBudtender Inc. and our 51% ownership of PrestoCorp, (the “Company”).  All significant inter-company balances have been eliminated in consolidation.  Method of Accounting:  The Company maintains its books and prepares its consolidated financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting.  Use of Estimates:  The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Such management estimates include the valuation of digital currency, valuation of intangible assets in connection with business combinations, recoverability of long-lived assets and goodwill, and the valuation of equity-based instruments.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Liquidity  Our operations have been financed primarily through proceeds from notes payable, convertible notes payable, sale of common stock and revenue generated from sales of our products. These funds have provided us with the resources to operate our business, sell and support our products, attract and retain key personnel and add new products to our portfolio. We have experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations each year since our inception. As of December 31, 2017, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $67,000,000 and nominal working capital.  39  CANNABIS SATIVA, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended December 31, 2017 and 2016  We have raised funds through the issuance of debt and the sale of common stock. We have also issued equity instruments in certain circumstances to pay for services from vendors and consultants.  During 2017, a total of $771,156 was raised in gross proceeds from the issuance of common stock.  See Note 13 for the Company’s plan for the future.  Segment Information  We operate our business on the basis of a single reportable segment, which is the business of delivering products and services ancillary to the medical cannabis market. Our chief operating decision-maker is the Chief Executive Officer, who evaluates us as a single operating segment.  Accounts Receivable:  We estimate credit loss reserves for accounts receivable on an individual receivable basis. A specific impairment allowance reserve is established based on expected future cash flows and the financial condition of the debtor.  We charge off customer balances in part or in full when it is more likely than not that we will not collect that amount of the balance due.  We consider any balance unpaid after the contract payment period to be past due.  At December 31, 2017 and 2016 the Company has established an allowance for doubtful accounts of $1,246.  Inventory:  Inventory cost includes those costs directly attributable to the product before sale. Inventory consists of salves, ointments, lotions, creams and balms and is carried at the lower of cost or (net realizable value), using first-in, first-out method of determining cost.  At December 31, 2017 there was $8,346 in raw materials and $165 in finished goods inventory. At December 31, 2016 the Company had $8,783 in raw materials and $345 in finished goods inventory.  Property and Equipment:  Property and equipment are recorded at cost.  Depreciation is provided for on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.  The average lives range from five (5) to ten (10) years.  Leasehold improvements are amortized on the straight-line method over the lesser of the lease term or the useful life. Maintenance and repairs that neither materially add to the value of the property nor appreciably prolong its life are charged to expense as incurred.  Betterments or renewals are capitalized when incurred.  Fair Value of Financial Instruments:  The estimated fair values for financial instruments are determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information. These estimates involve uncertainties and cannot be determined with precision. The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and notes payable approximate fair value given their short term nature or effective interest rates.  Cash:  Cash is held at major financial institutions and insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to federal insurance limits.  Net Loss per Share:  40  CANNABIS SATIVA, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended December 31, 2017 and 2016  Net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and contains no dilutive securities. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity.  Potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because the effect is anti-dilutive.  Revenue Recognition:  The Company recognizes revenue from product sales or services rendered when the following four revenue recognition criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.    For the year ended December 31, 2017, 97% of the revenue is from PrestoCorp operations between August 1, 2017 (date of purchase) and December 31, 2017.  Digital Currencies Translations and Re-measurements  The Company accounts for digital currencies, which it considers to be available for sale as opposed to trading, at their initial cost and subsequently re-measures the carrying amounts of digital currencies it owns at each reporting period based on their current fair value. The changes in the fair value of digital currencies are included as a component of other comprehensive income. The Company has determined a portion of the fair value of its digital currency are primarily based on the indicated value of a transaction subsequent to year end (see note 14).  Intangible Assets:  Intangible assets are comprised of patents, trademarks, the Company’s “CBDS.com” website domain and intellectual property rights.  The patent isbeing amortized using the straight-line method over its economic life, which is estimated to be ten (10) years.  The trademarks are being amortized between 5 and 10 years.  The CBDS.com website is being amortized using the straight-line method over its economic life, which is estimated to be five (5) years.  The intellectual property rights are being amortized using the straight-line month over its economic life, which is estimated to be five (5) years.  Long-Lived Assets  We review our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. We evaluate assets for potential impairment by comparing estimated future undiscounted net cash flows to the carrying amount of the assets. If the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows, impairment is measured based on the difference between the carrying amount of the assets and fair value. Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the consolidated balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell and are no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposal group classified as held-for-sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the consolidated balance sheet, if material. During the years ended December 31, 2017 we recognized an impairment charge of $980,944 related to the assets of PrestoCorp. In 2016, we did not recognize any impairment of our long-lived assets.  41  CANNABIS SATIVA, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended December 31, 2017 and 2016  Income Taxes:  The Company adopted FASB Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) 740 which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Company's consolidated financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The Company had no unrecognized tax benefits during the year nor any interest or penalties on unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2017.  The Company estimates the annual tax rate based on projected taxable income for the full year and records a quarterly income tax provision in accordance with the anticipated annual rate. As the year progresses, we refine the estimates of the year’s taxable income as new information becomes available, including year-to-date financial results. This continual estimation process can result in a change to the expected effective tax rate for the year. When this occurs, the Company adjusts the income tax provision during the quarter in which the change in estimate occurs so that the year-to-date provision reflects the expected annual tax rate. Significant judgment may be required in determining the Company’s effective tax rate and in evaluating our tax positions.  The effective income tax rate of 0% for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 differed from the statutory rate, due primarily to net operating losses incurred by the Company in the respective periods.  For the year ended December 31, 2017 a tax benefit of approximately $2,500,000 would have been generated.  For the year ended December 31, 2016 a tax benefit of approximately $470,006 would have been generated.  However, all benefits have been fully offset through an allowance account due to the uncertainty of the utilization of the net operating losses. As of December 31, 2017 the Company had net operating losses of approximately $7,811,487 that would result in a deferred tax asset of approximately $2,500,000.  However, the Company has established a valuation allowance in the full amount of the deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty of the utilization of operating losses in future periods.  Stock-Based Compensation:  Stock-based compensation is computed in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718. FASB ASC 718 requires all share-based payment to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized as compensation expense in the consolidated financial statements based on their fair values.  That expense will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). The Company has selected the Black-Scholes option pricing model as the most appropriate fair value method for our awards and have recognized compensation costs immediately as our awards are 100% vested.  The Company’s accounting policy for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in exchange for goods and services follows the provisions of FASB ASC 505-50.  The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor’s performance is complete.  In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term of the consulting agreement.  Stock-based compensation related to non-employees is accounted for based on the fair value of the related stock or options or the fair value of the services, whichever is more readily determinable in accordance with ASC 718.  42  CANNABIS SATIVA, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended December 31, 2017 and 2016  Advertising Expense:  Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Advertising costs were approximately $353,000 and $145,595 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.  Business Combinations:  We account for business combinations by recognizing the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, contractual contingencies, and contingent consideration at their fair values on the acquisition date. The final purchase price may be adjusted up to one year from the date of the acquisition. Identifying the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired requires the use of estimates by management and was based upon currently available data. Examples of critical estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets we have acquired or may acquire in the future include but are not limited to future expected cash flows from product sales, support agreements, consulting contracts, other customer contracts, and acquired developed technologies and patents and discount rates utilized in valuation estimates.  Unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that may affect the accuracy or validity of such assumptions, estimates or actual results. Additionally, any change in the fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration subsequent to the acquisition date, including changes from events after the acquisition date, such as changes in our estimate of relevant revenue or other targets, will be recognized in earnings in the period of the estimated fair value change. A change in fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration or the occurrence of events that cause results to differ from our estimates or assumptions could have a material effect on the consolidated statements of operations, financial position and cash flows in the period of the change in the estimate.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements:  There have been no recent accounting pronouncements issued which are expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Management continues to monitor and review recently issued accounting guidance upon issuance.  In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This updated guidance supersedes the current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The updated guidance introduces a five-step model to achieve its core principal of the entity recognizing revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 which deferred the effective date by one year for public entities and others. The amendments in this ASU are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 for public business entities, certain not-for-profit entities, and certain employee benefit plans. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08 which clarifies the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10 which clarifies the principle for determining whether a good or service is “separately identifiable” and, therefore, should be accounted for separately. In May 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-12 which clarifies the objective of the collectability criterion. A separate update issued in May 2016 clarifies the accounting for shipping and handling fees and costs as well as accounting for consideration given by a vendor to a customer. The guidance includes indicators to assist an entity in determining whether it controls a specified good or service before it is transferred to the customers.  43  CANNABIS SATIVA, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended December 31, 2017 and 2016   We have adopted the standard on January 1, 2018. We are using the modified retrospective approach. Under the modified approach, an entity recognizes “the cumulative effect of initially applying the ASU as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings of the annual reporting period that includes the date of initial application” (revenue in periods presented in the consolidated financial statements before that date is reported under guidance in effect before the change). Using this approach, an entity applies the guidance in the ASU to existing contracts (those for which the entity has remaining performance obligations) as of, and new contracts after, the date of initial application. The ASU is not applied to contracts that were completed before the effective date (i.e., an entity has no remaining performance obligations to fulfill). Entities that elect the modified approach must disclose an explanation of the impact of adopting the ASU, including the consolidated financial statement line items and respective amounts directly affected by the standard’s application.  While we are still currently assessing the impact of the new standard, our revenue is primarily generated from the sale of finished product to customers. Those sales predominantly contain a single delivery element and revenue is recognized at a single point in time when ownership, risks and rewards transfer. The timing of revenue recognition for these product sales are not materially impacted by the new standard. However, we are utilizing a comprehensive approach to assess the impact of the guidance on our current contract portfolio by reviewing our current accounting policies and practices to identify potential differences that would result from applying the new requirements to our revenue contracts, including evaluation of performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price, allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation and accounting treatment of costs to obtain and fulfill contracts. We continue to make significant progress on the potential impact on our accounting policies and internal control processes including system readiness. In addition, we will update certain disclosures, as applicable, included in our filings pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, to meet the requirements of the new guidance.  In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. The standard requires lessees to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet and requires expanded disclosures about leasing arrangements. We plan to adopt the standard on January 1, 2019. We are currently assessing the impact that the new standard will have on our consolidated financial statements, which will consist primarily of a balance sheet gross up of our operating leases to show equal and offsetting lease assets and lease liabilities.  2.  Eden Holdings LLC During the quarter ended September 30, 2014, the Company created Eden Holdings LLC.  The purpose of the entity is to hold the intellectual property of Cannabis Sativa, Inc.  As of December 31, 2017 and 2016 there has been no activity in the LLC.  3.   Fair Value Measurements We adopted ASC Topic 820 for financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  Fair value is defined 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. ASC Topic 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include:  ·Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;·Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and·Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.  44  CANNABIS SATIVA, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended December 31, 2017 and 2016  The estimated fair values for financial instruments are determined at discrete points in time based on relevant market information.  These estimates involve uncertainties and cannot be determined with precision.  The carrying amounts of accounts receivable, inventory, notes payable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities approximate fair value given their short term nature or effective interest rates.  We measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis.  4.Digital Currency As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows: 2017TotalLevel 1Level 2Level 3Assets:Digital Currency$230,169$-$230,169$-Total assets measured at fair value$230,169$-$230,169$-  2016TotalLevel 1Level 2Level 3Assets:Digital Currency$41,191$-$-$41,191Total assets measured at fair value$41,191$-$-$41,191  The Company’s digital currency consisted of the following at December 31, 2017 and 2016:  20172016Weed coin$214,365$-Gary coin$15,804$26,280Hemp coin$0$14,911$230,169$41,191  The following table sets forth a summary of changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 investments for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Hi Brands International Inc. – Centuria Foods Agreement On February 6, 2015, the Company formed Hi Brands International Inc., a Nevada Corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Cannabis Sativa, Inc.  On February 25, 2015, the Company through its wholly owned subsidiary Hi Brands International, Inc. (jointly referred to hereinafter as “Cannabis Sativa”), entered into a Purchase, Supply and Joint Venture Agreement (the “Agreement”), with Centuria Natural Foods, Inc. (“Centuria”) whereby Cannabis Sativa will market Centuria’s proprietary CBD (Cannabidiol) Rich Hemp Oil products (the “Products”).  The initial term of the Agreement is one year which may be renewed for additional one year periods upon the mutual agreement of the parties.

Purchase of iBudtender Inc.  48  CANNABIS SATIVA, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended December 31, 2017 and 2016  On August 8, 2016, the Company purchased 50.1% interest in iBudtender Inc.  The Company paid iBudtender $50,000 and agreed to issue iBudtender 150,000 shares of common stock, of which 100,000 were issued at closing and 50,000 are to be issued 180 days from closing.  In exchange, iBudtender issued 5,010,000 shares of its common stock to the Company.   Since this was not a significant acquisition, the Company did not file an Amended 8K.  The following summarizes the transaction with iBudtender at closing on August 8, 2016:  Cash$5,635Intellectual Property330,000Goodwill336,667Total Assets$672,302Fair value of NCI(283,000)Notes Payable – Related Parties(64,302)Net Purchase$325,000The purchase price was comprised of:Cash$50,000Common Stock$275,000Net Purchase Price$325,000  Through the purchase of iBudtende, the Company expects to bring an increased level and depth of consumer information to the cannabis markets through its proprietary algorithms and unique method of data analysis. iBudtender has a strong brand presence and name recognition in the cannabis event space.  In determining the fair value of the intangible assets, the Company considered, among other factors, the best use of acquired assets such as a business to consumer web portal and app, analyses of historical financial performance of the products and estimates of future performance of the products and intellectual properties acquired. The fair values of the identified intangible assets related to Intellectual Property and Goodwill and the Company has preliminarily recorded the purchase price as an intangible asset and such asset is being amortized over its estimated useful life of 10 years.  During 2016, the Company utilized an amortization period of 10 years, but based on a change in estimate and the evolving industry, the Company began utilizing a useful life of 5 years in 2017.  The final purchase price allocation was completed in 2017.  Based on the final purchase price allocation, goodwill was increased by $89,616 and iBudtender’s intellectual property rights were decreased by $70,000. The fair value of the non-controlling interest is based on the estimated fair value, net of discounts for lack of marketability and control.  The establishment of the allocation to goodwill and identifiable intangible assets requires the extensive use of accounting estimates and management judgment. The fair values assigned to the assets acquired are based on estimates and assumptions from data currently available.  10.  Purchase of iBudtender Inc. - continued The following unaudited supplemental pro forma information for the year ended December 31, 2016 , assumes the acquisition of iBudtender, Inc. had occurred as of January 1, 2016, giving effect to purchase accounting adjustments such as amortization of intangible assets.

Purchase of PrestoCorp – continued In determining the fair value of the intangible assets, the Company considered, among other factors, the best use of acquired assets such as a business to consumer web portal and application, analyses of historical financial performance of the services and estimates of future performance of the products and intellectual properties acquired. The fair values of the identified intangible assets related to Intellectual Property and Goodwill and the Company has preliminarily recorded the purchase price of the identified intangible assets and is amortizing such assets over their estimated useful lives ranging from 3-5 years.  The goodwill of $3,010,000 (net of impairment of $509,000) arising from the purchase of PrestoCorp is derived largely from the rapid expected growth of the Company, as well as synergies and economies of scale expected from combining the operations of the Company and PrestoCorp. None of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The fair value of the non-controlling interest is based on the estimated fair value, net of discounts for lack of marketability and control.  The establishment of the allocation to goodwill and identifiable intangible assets requires the extensive use of accounting estimates and management judgment. The fair values assigned to the assets acquired are based on estimates and assumptions from data currently available.  The following unaudited supplemental pro forma information for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016 assumes the acquisition of PrestoCorp had occurred as of January 1, 2017 and 2016, giving effect to purchase accounting adjustments such as amortization of intangible assets. The pro forma data is for informational purposes only and may not necessarily reflect the actual results of operations had the assets of PrestoCorp been operating as part of the Company since January 1, 2017 and 2016.  50  CANNABIS SATIVA, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended December 31, 2017 and 2016  12.  Going Concern Considerations The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has minimal working capital, has incurred operating losses since inception, and has not yet produced significant continuing revenues from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event that the Company cannot continue as a going concern. Management anticipates that it will be able to raise additional working capital through the issuance of stock and through additional loans from investors.  The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to raise adequate capital to fund operating losses until it is able to engage in profitable business operations. To the extent financing is not available, the Company may not be able to, or may be delayed in, developing its services and meeting its obligations. The Company will continue to evaluate its projected expenditures relative to its available cash and to evaluate additional means of financing in order to satisfy its working capital and other cash requirements. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.  13.

Any of these claims could subject us to litigation.
