SHARING SERVICES GLOBAL CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

 

Description of Operations

 

Sharing Services Global Corporation (“Sharing Services,” “SHRG”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) aim to build shareholder value by developing or investing in innovative emerging businesses and technologies that augment the Company’s products and services portfolio, business competencies, and geographic reach. The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada in April 2015. The Company’s main business activities include:

 

Sale of Health and Wellness Products - The Company markets its health and wellness products primarily through an independent sales force, using a direct selling business model under the proprietary brand “The Happy Co.” Currently, The Happy Co. TM markets and distributes its health and wellness products primarily in the United States (the “U.S.”) and Canada.

 

Sale of Member-Based Travel Services - Through its subsidiary, Hapi Travel Destinations, the Company established a subscription-based travel services business under the proprietary brand MyTravelVentures (“MTV”) in May 2022. MTV provides entrepreneurial opportunities to its subscribers by capitalizing on both the direct selling model and the retail travel business model. The MTV services are designed to offer discount for travel relating to airfare, cruises, hotels, resorts, time shares and rental cars for destinations throughout the world for people of all ages, demographics, and economic backgrounds.

 

In August 2021, Sharing Services and Hapi Café, Inc, a company affiliated with Heng Fai Ambrose Chan, a Director of the Company, entered into a Master Franchise Agreement (the “MFA”) pursuant to which Sharing Services acquired the exclusive franchise rights in North America to the brand “Hapi Café.” Under the terms of the MFA, Sharing Services, directly or through its subsidiaries, has the right to operate no less than five corporate-owned stores and can offer to the public sub-franchise rights to own and operate other stores, subject to the terms and conditions contained in the MFA. In light of the challenges and business opportunities presented by the COVID pandemic, the Company is refining its operating and related business plan to open up Hapi Café in Plano, Dallas and the New York City.

 

Directly or through its subsidiaries, the Company from time to time will invest in emerging businesses, using a combination of debt and equity financing, in efforts to leverage the Company’s resources and business competencies and to participate in the growth of these businesses. As part of the Company’s commitment to the success of these emerging businesses, the Company, directly or through its subsidiaries, also plans to offer non-traditional inventory financing, equity or debt financing, order fulfillment and logistic, CRM “Back Office” solutions, and other success-critical services to these businesses.

 

NOTE 2- GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and settle its liabilities in the ordinary course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has experienced a significant decline in consolidated sales and earnings during the most recent years. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, net loss was approximately $1.5 million and $18.4 million, respectively. For the six months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, net loss was approximately $3.9 million and $19.7 million. In addition, as of September 30, 2023, and March 31, 2023, accumulated deficit was approximately $110.4 million and $106.5 million, respectively.

 

Historically, the Company has funded its working capital needs primarily with capital transactions and with secured and unsecured debt, including the issuance of convertible notes and borrowings under short-term financing arrangements. The Company intends to continue to raise capital and use secured and unsecured debt, including the issuance of convertible notes and borrowings under short-term financing arrangements, from time to time in the future as needed to fund its working capital needs and strategic acquisitions.

 

9
 

 

During the past twelve months, the Company has initiated business initiatives intended to stabilize its sales levels, to drive long-term sales growth, and to create positive cash flows from operations, including by implementing stricter fiscal controls over operating costs and expenditures. The Company believes it will be able to fund its working capital needs for the next 12 months with: (a) secured and unsecured borrowings, including the issuance of convertible notes and borrowings under short-term financing arrangements, (b) capital transactions, and (c) cash from operations. However, there can be no assurance about the future success of the Company’s growth and cost control initiatives or about the Company’s ability to raise sufficient capital and to issue sufficient secured and unsecured debt, including the issuance of convertible notes and borrowings under short-term financing arrangements, in the future to fund its working capital needs.

 

These matters raise reasonable doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023. Unless so stated, the disclosures in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not repeal the disclosures in our consolidated financial statements for year ended March 31, 2023.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the use of judgment and requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities, if any. Matters that require the use of estimates and assumptions include, among others: the recoverability of accounts and notes receivable, the valuation of inventory, the useful lives of fixed assets, the assessment of long-lived assets for impairment, the nature and timing of satisfaction of multiple performance obligations resulting from contracts with customers, the allocation of the transaction price to multiple performance obligations in a sales transaction, the measurement and recognition of right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities, the valuation of share-based compensation awards, the provision for income taxes, the measurement and recognition of uncertain tax positions, the valuation of long-term debt covenants, and the valuation of loss contingencies, if any. Actual results may differ from these estimates in amounts that may be material to our consolidated financial statements. We believe that the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements are reasonable.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include recent customer remittances deposited with our merchant processors at the balance sheet date, which generally settle within 24 to 72 hours. As of September 30, 2023, and March 31, 2023, cash and cash equivalents included cash held by our merchant processors of approximately $0.05 million and $0.5 million, respectively. In addition, as of September 30, 2023, and March 31, 2023, cash and cash equivalents held in bank accounts in foreign countries in the ordinary course of business were approximately $0.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively. Amounts held by our merchant processor or held in bank accounts located in foreign countries are generally not insured by any federal agency.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory consists of finished goods and promotional materials and are stated at the lower of cost, determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method, or net realizable value. The Company periodically assesses its inventory levels when compared to current and anticipated sales levels. As of September 30, 2023, and March 31, 2023, the allowance for obsolete inventory was $881,868 and $880,926, respectively, in connection with health and wellness product that is damaged, expired or otherwise in excess of forecasted outputs, based on our current and anticipated sales levels. The Company reports its provisions for inventory losses in cost of goods sold in its condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Other Receivable and Loan Payable

 

In July 2023, the Company, through its out-sourced payroll services provider (“Paychex”), submitted a claim to the Internal Revenue Services (“IRS”) for the Employee Retention Tax Credit (“ERTC credit”) based on its payroll records and other pertinent information. Refunds will be distributed based on IRS processing times and the total ERTC credit will be approximately $1.88 million. Such the likelihood of receiving the ERTC credit is probable and the amount is estimable, the Company has recorded its ERTC credit in the Other Receivable.

 

Through the introduction of Paychex, the Company successfully applied for an ERTC loan (“bridge loan”) in August 2023. The bridge loan that was approved came to $1.2 million, and it was recoded as a Loan Payable. The loan is for a 12-month period and carries a 2% monthly interest rate. The loan proceeds must be used solely and exclusively for working capital and other business purposes and it had an origination fee of $24,000. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $1.18 million on September 9, 2023.

 

Other Assets

 

Other assets include a multi-user license and code of a back-office platform that was acquired for $1,000,000 in 2022. This back-office platform is designed to facilitate the computation and processing of commission payments to distributors, and it requires customization in order for it to be operational. Costs associated with the customization and build out of the platform has been capitalized in accordance with ASC 350 - Capitalization on Internal-Use Software Costs.

 

Loans Payable

 

On September 15, 2022, Linden Real Estate Holdings, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, American Pacific Bancorp, Inc. (“APB”), and the Company entered into a Loan Agreement pursuant to which APB loaned the Company approximately $5.7 million. The loan bears interest at the annual rate of 8%, matures on September 1, 2024, and is secured by a first mortgage interest on the Company’s Lindon, Utah office building. In connection with this loan, the Company received net proceeds of $5,522,829 from APB on September 17, 2022. APB is a subsidiary of DSS, Inc, a major stockholder of the Company. Heng Fai Ambrose Chan, and Frank D. Heuszel, each a Director of the Company, also serve on the Board of Directors of APB. Monthly payments of principal and interest in the amount of $43,897 have been made beginning July 1, 2022, and are payable on the same date of each month thereafter.

 

On August 11, 2022, the Company executed a revolving credit promissory note with APB (“the APB Revolving Note”) pursuant to which the Company has access to advances with a maximum principal balance not to exceed the principal sum of $10 million. The APB Revolving Note included origination fees of $600,000. The Note is collateralized by the assets of the Company, and it bears interest at the annual rate of 8% and such interest shall be due and payable quarterly. Interest payments on the loan are due and payable on the last day of each consecutive third calendar month until the maturity date of August 12, 2024. On December 9, 2022, APB and the Company mutually agreed to limit and/or end any further commitment by APB to fund or to readvance under the terms of the APB Revolving Note.

 

Effective June 30, 2023, the Company, and Decentralized Sharing Systems, Inc. (“DSSI”), entered into an Assignment of Limited Liability Company Interests agreement pursuant to which: (a) DSSI assumed approximately $7.24 million in SHRG liabilities secured by certain Commercial Real Estate, (b) DSSI credited SHRG $239,790 towards accrued interest payable under the 2022 Note (the “$27.0 million loan”), and (c) DSSI acquired ownership of Linden Real Estate Holdings LLC, with its sole asset being a commercial lot and commercial building located in Lindon, Utah, subject to the assumed indebtedness.

 

On August 31, 2023, the Company and DSSI executed a debt exchange agreement whereby DSSI cancelled the $27 million loan and accepted 26,000 shares of the Company’s Series D Preferred Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Preferred D Stock”) in exchange for the cancellation of the $27.0 million loan . Pursuant to the debt exchange agreement, the principal amount together with all unpaid interest, totaling $26,169,367.33 was deemed to be repaid. The holder of Preferred D Stock is entitled to receive dividends in cash valued at a rate of 25% per annum of the operating income of the Company. Any accrued and unpaid dividends shall be payable in cash commencing on August 31, 2024 and continuing each annual anniversary of such date on a perpetual basis.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The functional currency of each of our foreign operations is generally the respective local currency. Balance sheet accounts are translated into U.S. dollars (our reporting currency) at the rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date, while the results of operations and cash flows are generally translated using average exchange rates for the periods presented. Individual material transactions, if any, are translated using the actual rate of exchange on the transaction date. The resulting translation adjustments are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. In September 2021, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, commenced operations in the Republic of Korea (South Korea).

Recently Issued Accounting Standards - Pending Adoption

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (ASU 2020-06), which simplifies the accounting for certain convertible instruments. Among other things, under ASU 2020-06, the embedded conversion features no longer must be separated from the host contract for convertible instruments with conversion features not required to be accounted for as derivatives, or that do not result in substantial premiums accounted for as paid-in capital. ASU 2020-06 also eliminates the use of the treasury stock method when calculating the impact of convertible instruments on diluted Earnings per Share. For the Company, the provisions of ASU 2020-06 are effective for its fiscal quarter beginning on April 1, 2024. Early adoption is permitted, subject to certain limitations. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 4 – LOSS PER SHARE

 

We calculate basic loss per share by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated similarly but reflects the potential impact of shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of outstanding convertible preferred stock, convertible notes payable, if any, stock warrants and other commitments to issue common stock, except where the impact would be anti-dilutive.

 

The following table sets forth the computations of basic and diluted loss per share:

 

   2023   2022 
   Three Months Ended September 30, 
   2023   2022 
Net loss  $(1,454,790)  $(18,385,903)
Weighted average basic shares   376,328,885    262,832,833 
Weighted average diluted shares   376,328,885    262,832,833 
Loss per share:          
Basic  $(0.004)  $(0.07)
Diluted  $(0.004)  $(0.07)

 

   2023   2022 
   Six Months Ended September 30, 
   2023   2022 
Net loss  $(3,879,148)  $(19,738,913)
Weighted average basic shares   373,961,126    270,531,857

Diluted  $(0.01)  $(0.07)

 

The following potentially dilutive securities and instruments were outstanding as of September 30, 2023, and 2022, but excluded from the table above:

 

   2023   2022 
   As of September 30, 
   2023   2022

Total potential incremental shares   6,320,000    275,689,846 

 

As of September 30, 2023, all employee warrants outstanding were fully vested.

 

NOTE 5 – NOTES RECEIVABLE, NET

In December 2021, the parties to the Funding Agreement entered into a modification to the Funding Agreement pursuant to which the parties agreed to increase the amount of the revolving credit line to $310,000. Borrowings under the credit line, as amended, are payable in monthly installments in amounts determined in relation to the amount of each cash advance. In connection with the Funding Agreement, the Company acquired a 10% equity interest in 1044Pro and a security interest in 1044Pro’s cash receipts and in substantially all 104Pro’s assets.

 

On January 26, 2022, the parties to the Funding Agreement discussed in the preceding paragraph entered into a new Loan Agreement (“Revolving Promissory Note”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to loan to 1044Pro up to an additional $250,000, of which $125,000 was funded immediately. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Note bear interest at 10%, are payable in full on or before July 26, 2023, and are secured by a security interest in substantially all 1044Pro’s assets and a security interest in 50% of 1044Pro’s members’ interest. Borrowings under the Loan Agreement are further secured by a personal guaranty executed by a member of 1044Pro.

 

On August 29, 2022, the Company and 1044Pro entered into an agreement to modify the Revolving Promissory Note dated January 26, 2022. In accordance with the amendment, the Company agreed to lend $125,000 to 1044 for a 20% membership interest in 1044Pro. The loan is secured by the assets of 1044Pro as well as by a personal guaranty executed by a member of 1044Pro.

NOTE 15 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

Stock Warrants

 

Stock Warrants Issued to Directors, Officers and Employees

 

In January 2022, the Company and DSS who, together with its subsidiaries, was then a majority shareholder of the Company, entered into a one-year Business Consulting Agreement (the “Consulting Agreement”) pursuant to which the DSS would provide to the Company certain consulting services, as defined in the Consulting Agreement. In connection with the Consulting Agreement, the Company agreed to pay DSS and flat monthly fee of sixty thousand dollars ($60,000) and DSS received a fully vested detachable Stock Warrant to purchase up to 50.0 million shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, at the exercise price of $0.0001 per share. On the effective date of the Consulting Agreement, the closing price of the Company’s common stock was $0.07 per share and the fair value of the Stock Warrant was $3.5 million. The fair value of the Stock Warrant was amortized into consulting expense over the term of one year. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, the Company recognized consulting expense of $0 and $872,603 million, respectively, in connection with the Consulting Agreement. In February 2023, the Company issued 50.0 million shares of its Common Stock Class A to DSS in connection with exercise of the Stock Warrant.

 

In September 2022, the Company and DSSI entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) pursuant to which the Company issued: (a) a Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $27.0 million (the “2022 Note”) in favor of DSSI and (b) a detachable Warrant to purchase up to 818,181,819 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock (the “Warrant”), at $0.033 per share. At any time during the term of the 2022 Note, all or part of the Note was convertible into up to 818,181,819 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, at the option of the holder. In connection with the SPA, DSSI surrendered to the Company all DSSI’s rights pursuant to: (a) the Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $30.0 million discussed in the preceding paragraph, and (b) the detachable Warrant to purchase up to 150,000,000 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock discussed in the preceding paragraph. In March 2023, the parties entered into a Securities Exchange and Amendment Agreement pursuant to which the parties agreed to amend the 2022 Note by removing the conversion rights granted by the 2022 Note. The Company recognized the transaction with DSSI as a debt extinguishment in accordance with GAAP. Since DSSI is a related party, the difference between the fair value of the new equity instruments and the carrying value of the retired equity instruments was recognized as a deemed dividend in the Company’s financial statements in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023.

 

In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, the Company issued a fully vested warrant to purchase up to 8,444,663 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at the exercise price of $0.0001 per share, to the Company’s CEO John “JT” Thatch. The fair value of the warrant on the grant date was $109,780.

 

During fiscal year 2020, subsidiaries of the Company entered multi-year employment agreements with its key employees. In general, each employment contract contained a fully vested initial grant of warrants exercisable at a fixed exercise price and, provided for subsequent grants that were exercisable at a discounted price based on the 10-day average stock price determined at the time of exercise. The subsequent grants would vest at each anniversary date of the employment agreement effective date. The Company begins recognizing the compensatory nature of the warrants at the service inception date and ceases recognition at the vesting date. Due to the variable nature of the exercise price for some grants, the Company will continue to recognize expense (or benefit) after the end of the service period until the warrants are exercised or expire. As such, the Company disclosures below are based on either (i) the fixed exercise price of the warrant; or (ii) the variable exercise price of the warrant as determined on the last day of the period.

 

23
 

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, the Company recognized a compensatory gain of $0 and $114,960, respectively, in connection with grants with a variable exercise price after service is completed.

NOTE 17 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Legal Matters in General

 

The Company has incurred several claims in the normal course of business. The Company believes such claims can be resolved without any material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

 

The Company maintains certain liability insurance. However, certain costs of defending lawsuits are not covered by or only partially covered by its insurance policies, including claims that are below insurance deductibles. Additionally, insurance carriers could refuse to cover certain claims, in whole or in part. The Company accrues costs to defend itself from litigation as they are incurred.

 

The outcome of litigation is uncertain, and despite management’s view of the merits of any litigation, or the reasonableness of the Company’s estimates and reserves, the Company’s financial statements could nonetheless be materially affected by an adverse judgment. The Company believes it has adequately reserved for the contingencies arising from current legal matters where an outcome was deemed to be probable, and the loss amount could be reasonably estimated. No provision for legal matters was deemed necessary at September 30, 2023.

 

Legal Proceedings

Results of Operations

 

The Three months ended September 30, 2023, Compared to the Three months ended September 30, 2022

 

Net Sales

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our consolidated net sales decreased by $1.8 million, or 42.5%, to $2.4 million, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in net sales mainly reflects: (a) continuation of the decline in consumer orders that we experienced since the fiscal year 2020, (b) a decline in independent distributor orders, in the number of new independent distributors and in the number of continuing active distributors, resulting, in part, from recent product reformulations and increased competition for independent distributors, and (c) the generally adverse impact on consumer buying trends resulting from the recent increase in consumer good prices and in energy costs in the U.S.

 

The $1.8 million decrease in consolidated net sales primarily reflects a decrease in the number of comparable product units sold.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, the Company derived substantially all its consolidated net sales from the sale of its health and wellness product line.

 

Gross Profit

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our consolidated gross profit decreased by $0.7 million, or 28.4 %, to $1.7 million, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, and our consolidated gross margins were 72.2% and 58%, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, gross margin benefited from a decrease in shipping expenses and promotional pricing, as a percentage of sales.

 

Selling and Marketing Expenses

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our consolidated selling and marketing expenses decreased by $1.3 million, to $0.7 million, or 30.8% of consolidated net sales, compared to $2.0 million, or 48.7% of consolidated net sales, for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The $1.3 million decrease in consolidated selling and marketing expenses is due primarily to lower sales commissions of $0.7 million (which reflects the decrease in our consolidated net sales discussed above).

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our consolidated general and administrative expenses (which include corporate employee compensation and benefits, stock-based compensation, professional fees, rent and other occupancy costs, certain consulting fees, telephone and information technology expenses, insurance premiums, and other administrative expenses) decreased by $2.4 million, to $2.0 million, or 87.9% of consolidated net sales compared to $4.6 million, or 108.8% of consolidated net sales, for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The $2.4 million decrease in consolidated general and administrative expenses was primarily due to lower consulting expense of approximately $1.7 million, and lower employee compensation and compensation-related benefits of $0.9 million due to less headcount year over year.

 

Interest Expense, Net

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our consolidated interest expense was $387,907, excluding amortization of debt discount and amortization of deferred financing costs of $1.6 million.

Net Sales

 

For the six months ended September 30, 2023, our consolidated net sales decreased by $4.2 million, or 44.3%, to $5.3 million, compared to the six months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in net sales mainly reflects: (a) continuation of the decline in consumer orders that we experienced since the fiscal year 2020, (b) a decline in independent distributor orders, in the number of new independent distributors and in the number of continuing active distributors, resulting, in part, from recent product reformulations and increased competition for independent distributors, and (c) the generally adverse impact on consumer buying trends resulting from the recent increase in consumer good prices and in energy costs in the U.S. In efforts to restore strong sales growth, in the past several months, we have further intensified our efforts to recruit, develop and reward our distributors and our efforts to reach new consumers, including through the continued introduction of new products.

 

The $4.2 million decrease in consolidated net sales primarily reflects a decrease in the number of comparable product units sold.

 

During the six months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, the Company derived substantially all its consolidated net sales from the sale of its Elevate health and wellness product line.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We broadly define liquidity as our ability to generate sufficient cash, from internal and external sources, to meet our obligations and commitments. We believe that, for this purpose, liquidity cannot be considered separately from capital resources.

 

Working Capital

 

Working capital (total current assets minus total current liabilities). We had a deficiency in our working capital of approximately $2.0 million as of September 30, 2023, compared to $33.9 million as of March 31, 2023.

 

As of September 30, 2023, and March 31, 2023, our cash and cash equivalents were $1.4 million and $3.0 million, respectively. Based upon the current level of operations and anticipated investments necessary to grow our business, we believe that anticipated funds from operations will likely be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements over the next 12 months.

 

31
 

 

We have implemented measures to restructure our business operations and reduce our monthly cash burns and operating loss. Such measures include, and are not limited to, headcount reduction and elimination of certain overhead and consulting fees. Based upon the current level of operations and anticipated investments necessary to sustain/grow our business, we believe that existing cash balances and anticipated funds from operations will likely be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements over the next 12 months.

 

Historical Cash Flows

 

Historically, our primary sources of cash have been capital transactions involving the issuance of equity securities and secured and unsecured debt (See “Short-term Borrowings and Convertible Notes” below) and cash flows from operating activities; and our primary uses of cash have been for operating activities, capital expenditures, acquisitions, net cash advances to related parties, and debt repayments in the ordinary course of our business.

 

The following table summarizes our cash flow activities for the six months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the six months ended September 30, 2022:

Decrease in cash and cash equivalents  $(1,609,546)  $(10,564,401)

 

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities

 

For the six months ended September 30, 2023, net cash used in operating activities was $3.0 million, compared to $5.4 million for the six months ended September 30, 2022. The $2.5 million decrease was due to a decline in operating losses of $2.3 million (excluding non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, provision for obsolete inventory losses, amortization of debt discount, unrealized gain (loss) on investments, losses on impairment of investments in unconsolidated entities and notes receivable, and gains on extinguishment of debt), and a change in operating assets and liabilities of $207,021.

For the six months ended September 30, 2023, net cash used in investing activities was $0, compared to $11.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 2022. The $11.5 million change was due to lower capital expenditures.

For the six months ended September 30, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities was $1.2 million, compared to $6.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was due to lower proceeds from loans under promissory notes, net of loan repayments, of $7.5 million. The decrease was partially offset by lower Sharing Services common stock received in connection with a litigation settlement of $1.0 million.

 

Impact of currency rate changes in cash

 

For the six months ended September 30, 2023, the impact of currency rate changes in cash was $160,759, compared to negative $150,122 for the six months ended September 30, 2022.

Concurrent with issuance of the Note, the Company issued to HWH a detachable stock warrant to purchase up to an additional 333,333 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.15 per share. Under the terms of the Note and the detachable stock warrant, the Holder is entitled to certain financing rights. If the Company enters into more favorable transactions with a third-party investor, it must notify the Holder and may have to amend and restate the Note and the detachable stock warrant to be identical.

 

On August 9, 2022, HWH and the Company executed an agreement to settle the Note and cancel the related stock warrant for $78,636, which amount represents the principal plus accrued interest. The Company made the payment to HWH on August 9, 2022.

 

Capital Requirements

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, there were no capital expenditures for property and equipment (consisting of furniture and fixtures, computer equipment and software, other office equipment and leasehold improvements) in the ordinary course of our business.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

There were no material changes to our contractual cash obligations during the three months ended September 30, 2023.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

 

As of September 30, 2023, we had no off-balance sheet financing arrangements.

 

Inflation

 

In recent history, inflation has generally been low in the geographies where we operate. However, during the fiscal period covered by this Quarterly Report, the inflation rate in the United States averaged around 4%, primarily as a result of higher energy, housing, and food costs. Please see “Our business and financial performance could be adversely affected by inflation contained in ITEM 1A, — “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023.

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

There were no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting estimates or assumptions since March 31, 2023.

 

Accounting Changes and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

For discussion of accounting changes and recent accounting pronouncements, see Note 3 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

 

The Company is a Smaller Reporting Company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, and, accordingly, is not required to provide the information called for by this Item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of the end of the fiscal period covered by this Quarterly Report, and concluded that, as of September 30, 2023, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management and its Board of Directors, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

35
 

 

Limitations on the Company’s Controls and Procedures. We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud. Any system of controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. Because of the limitations in all such systems, no evaluation can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud (if any) within the Company have been detected. Furthermore, the design of any system of disclosure controls and procedures is based in part upon assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how unlikely. Because of these inherent limitations in a cost-effective system of controls and procedures, misstatements and/or omissions due to error or fraud may occur undetected.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. During our most recent fiscal quarter, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

 

Description of Operations

 

Sharing Services Global Corporation (“Sharing Services,” “SHRG”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) aim to build shareholder value by developing or investing in innovative emerging businesses and technologies that augment the Company’s products and services portfolio, business competencies, and geographic reach. The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada in April 2015. The Company’s main business activities include:

 

Sale of Health and Wellness Products - The Company markets its health and wellness products primarily through an independent sales force, using a direct selling business model under the proprietary brand “The Happy Co.” Currently, The Happy Co. TM markets and distributes its health and wellness products primarily in the United States (the “U.S.”) and Canada.

 

Sale of Member-Based Travel Services - Through its subsidiary, Hapi Travel Destinations, the Company established a subscription-based travel services business under the proprietary brand MyTravelVentures (“MTV”) in May 2022. MTV provides entrepreneurial opportunities to its subscribers by capitalizing on both the direct selling model and the retail travel business model. The MTV services are designed to offer discount for travel relating to airfare, cruises, hotels, resorts, time shares and rental cars for destinations throughout the world for people of all ages, demographics, and economic backgrounds.

 

In August 2021, Sharing Services and Hapi Café, Inc, a company affiliated with Heng Fai Ambrose Chan, a Director of the Company, entered into a Master Franchise Agreement (the “MFA”) pursuant to which Sharing Services acquired the exclusive franchise rights in North America to the brand “Hapi Café.” Under the terms of the MFA, Sharing Services, directly or through its subsidiaries, has the right to operate no less than five corporate-owned stores and can offer to the public sub-franchise rights to own and operate other stores, subject to the terms and conditions contained in the MFA. In light of the challenges and business opportunities presented by the COVID pandemic, the Company is refining its operating and related business plan to open up Hapi Café in Plano, Dallas and the New York City.

 

Directly or through its subsidiaries, the Company from time to time will invest in emerging businesses, using a combination of debt and equity financing, in efforts to leverage the Company’s resources and business competencies and to participate in the growth of these businesses. As part of the Company’s commitment to the success of these emerging businesses, the Company, directly or through its subsidiaries, also plans to offer non-traditional inventory financing, equity or debt financing, order fulfillment and logistic, CRM “Back Office” solutions, and other success-critical services to these businesses.

GOING CONCERN

NOTE 2- GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and settle its liabilities in the ordinary course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has experienced a significant decline in consolidated sales and earnings during the most recent years. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, net loss was approximately $1.5 million and $18.4 million, respectively. For the six months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, net loss was approximately $3.9 million and $19.7 million. In addition, as of September 30, 2023, and March 31, 2023, accumulated deficit was approximately $110.4 million and $106.5 million, respectively.

 

Historically, the Company has funded its working capital needs primarily with capital transactions and with secured and unsecured debt, including the issuance of convertible notes and borrowings under short-term financing arrangements. The Company intends to continue to raise capital and use secured and unsecured debt, including the issuance of convertible notes and borrowings under short-term financing arrangements, from time to time in the future as needed to fund its working capital needs and strategic acquisitions.

 

 

During the past twelve months, the Company has initiated business initiatives intended to stabilize its sales levels, to drive long-term sales growth, and to create positive cash flows from operations, including by implementing stricter fiscal controls over operating costs and expenditures. The Company believes it will be able to fund its working capital needs for the next 12 months with: (a) secured and unsecured borrowings, including the issuance of convertible notes and borrowings under short-term financing arrangements, (b) capital transactions, and (c) cash from operations. However, there can be no assurance about the future success of the Company’s growth and cost control initiatives or about the Company’s ability to raise sufficient capital and to issue sufficient secured and unsecured debt, including the issuance of convertible notes and borrowings under short-term financing arrangements, in the future to fund its working capital needs.

 

These matters raise reasonable doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023. Unless so stated, the disclosures in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not repeal the disclosures in our consolidated financial statements for year ended March 31, 2023.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the use of judgment and requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities, if any. Matters that require the use of estimates and assumptions include, among others: the recoverability of accounts and notes receivable, the valuation of inventory, the useful lives of fixed assets, the assessment of long-lived assets for impairment, the nature and timing of satisfaction of multiple performance obligations resulting from contracts with customers, the allocation of the transaction price to multiple performance obligations in a sales transaction, the measurement and recognition of right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities, the valuation of share-based compensation awards, the provision for income taxes, the measurement and recognition of uncertain tax positions, the valuation of long-term debt covenants, and the valuation of loss contingencies, if any. Actual results may differ from these estimates in amounts that may be material to our consolidated financial statements. We believe that the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements are reasonable.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include recent customer remittances deposited with our merchant processors at the balance sheet date, which generally settle within 24 to 72 hours. As of September 30, 2023, and March 31, 2023, cash and cash equivalents included cash held by our merchant processors of approximately $0.05 million and $0.5 million, respectively. In addition, as of September 30, 2023, and March 31, 2023, cash and cash equivalents held in bank accounts in foreign countries in the ordinary course of business were approximately $0.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively. Amounts held by our merchant processor or held in bank accounts located in foreign countries are generally not insured by any federal agency.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory consists of finished goods and promotional materials and are stated at the lower of cost, determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method, or net realizable value. The Company periodically assesses its inventory levels when compared to current and anticipated sales levels. As of September 30, 2023, and March 31, 2023, the allowance for obsolete inventory was $881,868 and $880,926, respectively, in connection with health and wellness product that is damaged, expired or otherwise in excess of forecasted outputs, based on our current and anticipated sales levels. The Company reports its provisions for inventory losses in cost of goods sold in its condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

 

Other Receivable and Loan Payable

 

In July 2023, the Company, through its out-sourced payroll services provider (“Paychex”), submitted a claim to the Internal Revenue Services (“IRS”) for the Employee Retention Tax Credit (“ERTC credit”) based on its payroll records and other pertinent information. Refunds will be distributed based on IRS processing times and the total ERTC credit will be approximately $1.88 million. Such the likelihood of receiving the ERTC credit is probable and the amount is estimable, the Company has recorded its ERTC credit in the Other Receivable.

 

Through the introduction of Paychex, the Company successfully applied for an ERTC loan (“bridge loan”) in August 2023. The bridge loan that was approved came to $1.2 million, and it was recoded as a Loan Payable. The loan is for a 12-month period and carries a 2% monthly interest rate. The loan proceeds must be used solely and exclusively for working capital and other business purposes and it had an origination fee of $24,000. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $1.18 million on September 9, 2023.

 

Other Assets

 

Other assets include a multi-user license and code of a back-office platform that was acquired for $1,000,000 in 2022. This back-office platform is designed to facilitate the computation and processing of commission payments to distributors, and it requires customization in order for it to be operational. Costs associated with the customization and build out of the platform has been capitalized in accordance with ASC 350 - Capitalization on Internal-Use Software Costs.

 

Loans Payable

 

On September 15, 2022, Linden Real Estate Holdings, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, American Pacific Bancorp, Inc. (“APB”), and the Company entered into a Loan Agreement pursuant to which APB loaned the Company approximately $5.7 million. The loan bears interest at the annual rate of 8%, matures on September 1, 2024, and is secured by a first mortgage interest on the Company’s Lindon, Utah office building. In connection with this loan, the Company received net proceeds of $5,522,829 from APB on September 17, 2022. APB is a subsidiary of DSS, Inc, a major stockholder of the Company. Heng Fai Ambrose Chan, and Frank D. Heuszel, each a Director of the Company, also serve on the Board of Directors of APB. Monthly payments of principal and interest in the amount of $43,897 have been made beginning July 1, 2022, and are payable on the same date of each month thereafter.

 

On August 11, 2022, the Company executed a revolving credit promissory note with APB (“the APB Revolving Note”) pursuant to which the Company has access to advances with a maximum principal balance not to exceed the principal sum of $10 million. The APB Revolving Note included origination fees of $600,000. The Note is collateralized by the assets of the Company, and it bears interest at the annual rate of 8% and such interest shall be due and payable quarterly. Interest payments on the loan are due and payable on the last day of each consecutive third calendar month until the maturity date of August 12, 2024. On December 9, 2022, APB and the Company mutually agreed to limit and/or end any further commitment by APB to fund or to readvance under the terms of the APB Revolving Note.

 

Effective June 30, 2023, the Company, and Decentralized Sharing Systems, Inc. (“DSSI”), entered into an Assignment of Limited Liability Company Interests agreement pursuant to which: (a) DSSI assumed approximately $7.24 million in SHRG liabilities secured by certain Commercial Real Estate, (b) DSSI credited SHRG $239,790 towards accrued interest payable under the 2022 Note (the “$27.0 million loan”), and (c) DSSI acquired ownership of Linden Real Estate Holdings LLC, with its sole asset being a commercial lot and commercial building located in Lindon, Utah, subject to the assumed indebtedness.

 

On August 31, 2023, the Company and DSSI executed a debt exchange agreement whereby DSSI cancelled the $27 million loan and accepted 26,000 shares of the Company’s Series D Preferred Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Preferred D Stock”) in exchange for the cancellation of the $27.0 million loan . Pursuant to the debt exchange agreement, the principal amount together with all unpaid interest, totaling $26,169,367.33 was deemed to be repaid. The holder of Preferred D Stock is entitled to receive dividends in cash valued at a rate of 25% per annum of the operating income of the Company. Any accrued and unpaid dividends shall be payable in cash commencing on August 31, 2024 and continuing each annual anniversary of such date on a perpetual basis.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The functional currency of each of our foreign operations is generally the respective local currency. Balance sheet accounts are translated into U.S. dollars (our reporting currency) at the rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date, while the results of operations and cash flows are generally translated using average exchange rates for the periods presented. Individual material transactions, if any, are translated using the actual rate of exchange on the transaction date. The resulting translation adjustments are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. In September 2021, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, commenced operations in the Republic of Korea (South Korea).

As of September 30, 2023, and March 31, 2023, deferred sales revenue associated with products invoiced but not received by customers at the balance sheet date was $158,463 and $113,896, respectively. In addition, as of September 30, 2023, and March 31, 2023, deferred sales revenue associated with our unfulfilled performance obligations for services offered on a subscription basis was $52,052 and $80,528, and deferred sales revenue associated with our performance obligations for customers’ right of return was $26,427 and $26,894, and deferred revenues associated with customer loyalty points was $25,493 and $25,493, respectively.

Sales Commissions

 

The Company recognizes sales commission expenses, when incurred, in accordance with GAAP. During the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, sales commission expense, which is included in selling and marketing expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, was approximately $0.7 million and $1.5 million, respectively. During the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, sales commission expense was approximately $1.8 million and $3.9 million, respectively

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards - Pending Adoption

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (ASU 2020-06), which simplifies the accounting for certain convertible instruments. Among other things, under ASU 2020-06, the embedded conversion features no longer must be separated from the host contract for convertible instruments with conversion features not required to be accounted for as derivatives, or that do not result in substantial premiums accounted for as paid-in capital. ASU 2020-06 also eliminates the use of the treasury stock method when calculating the impact of convertible instruments on diluted Earnings per Share. For the Company, the provisions of ASU 2020-06 are effective for its fiscal quarter beginning on April 1, 2024. Early adoption is permitted, subject to certain limitations. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 4 – LOSS PER SHARE

 

We calculate basic loss per share by dividing net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated similarly but reflects the potential impact of shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of outstanding convertible preferred stock, convertible notes payable, if any, stock warrants and other commitments to issue common stock, except where the impact would be anti-dilutive.

 

The following table sets forth the computations of basic and diluted loss per share:

In September 2021, GNTW issued to the Company 154,173 shares of its common stock, or less than 1% of the shares of GNTW then issued and outstanding, in payment of the origination fee. In November 2021, Globe Net Wireless Corp. changed its corporate name to Stemtech Corporation. In connection therewith, the investee’s common stock is now traded under the symbol “STEK”.

 

The Company carries its investment in the Convertible Note, the GNTW Warrant and the shares of GNTW common stock at fair value in accordance with GAAP. During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized unrealized gains, before income tax, of $4,865,354 in connection with its investment in the Convertible Note, the GNTW Warrant and the shares of GNTW common stock.

In October 2017, the Company issued a Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $50,000 (the “Note”) to HWH International, Inc. (“HWH” or the “Holder”). HWH is affiliated with Heng Fai Ambrose Chan, who in April 2020 became a Director of the Company. The Note is convertible into 333,333 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Concurrent with issuance of the Note, the Company issued to HWH a detachable warrant to purchase up to an additional 333,333 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.15 per share. Under the terms of the Note and the detachable stock warrant, the Holder is entitled to certain financing rights. If the Company enters into more favorable transactions with a third-party investor, it must notify the Holder and may have to amend and restate the Note and the detachable stock warrant to be identical. On August 9, 2022, HWH and the Company executed an agreement to settle the Note and cancel the related stock warrant for $78,636, which amount represents the principal plus accrued interest. The Company made the payment to HWH on August 9, 2022.

 

On April 5, 2021, the Company and Decentralized Sharing Systems, Inc. (“DSSI”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which the Company issued: (a) a Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $30.0 million (the “Note”) in favor of DSSI, and (b) a detachable Warrant to purchase up to 150,000,000 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, at $0.22 per share, and DSSI loaned to the Company $30.0 million. DSSI, is a subsidiary of DSS, Inc. (formerly Document Security Systems, Inc., “DSS”), and, together with DSS, is a major shareholder of the Company. Under the terms of the loan, the Company agreed to pay to DSSI a loan Origination Fee of $3.0 million, payable in shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, at the rate of $0.20 per share. The Note bore interest at the annual rate of 8%, with a maturity date of April 5, 2024, subject to certain accelerated provisions upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, as was defined in the Note. At any time during the term of the Note, all or part of the Note, including the principal amount less unamortized prepaid interest, if any, plus any accrued interest could have been converted into shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock at the rate of $0.20 per share, at the option of the holder. Interest on the Note was pre-payable annually in cash or in shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, at the option of the Company, except that interest for the first year was pre-payable in shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, at the rate of $0.20 per share. As further discussed below, the Note and the detachable Warrant were redeemed in September 2022.

 

On September 15, 2022, the Company and DSSI which, together with DSS, is a major shareholder of the Company, entered into an agreement pursuant to which the Company issued, to DSSI: (a) a two-year Convertible, Advancing Promissory Note in the principal amount of $27.0 million (the “2022 Note”) in favor of DSSI and (b) a detachable Warrant to purchase up to 818,181,819 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock at the exercise price of $0.033 per share.

The Company recognized the transaction with DSSI as a debt extinguishment in accordance with GAAP. Since DSSI is a related party, the difference between the fair value of the new equity instruments and the carrying value of the retired equity instruments was recognized in additional paid in capital on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

As more fully discussed in Notes 5 and 8, effective June 30, 2023, the Company and DSSI entered into two transactions, involving the sale of certain assets to DSSI, pursuant to which DSSI credited, in the aggregate, $641,790 to principal outstanding on the 2022 Note.

Stock Warrants

 

Stock Warrants Issued to Directors, Officers and Employees

 

In January 2022, the Company and DSS who, together with its subsidiaries, was then a majority shareholder of the Company, entered into a one-year Business Consulting Agreement (the “Consulting Agreement”) pursuant to which the DSS would provide to the Company certain consulting services, as defined in the Consulting Agreement. In connection with the Consulting Agreement, the Company agreed to pay DSS and flat monthly fee of sixty thousand dollars ($60,000) and DSS received a fully vested detachable Stock Warrant to purchase up to 50.0 million shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, at the exercise price of $0.0001 per share. On the effective date of the Consulting Agreement, the closing price of the Company’s common stock was $0.07 per share and the fair value of the Stock Warrant was $3.5 million. The fair value of the Stock Warrant was amortized into consulting expense over the term of one year. During the three months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, the Company recognized consulting expense of $0 and $872,603 million, respectively, in connection with the Consulting Agreement. In February 2023, the Company issued 50.0 million shares of its Common Stock Class A to DSS in connection with exercise of the Stock Warrant.

 

In September 2022, the Company and DSSI entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) pursuant to which the Company issued: (a) a Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $27.0 million (the “2022 Note”) in favor of DSSI and (b) a detachable Warrant to purchase up to 818,181,819 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock (the “Warrant”), at $0.033 per share. At any time during the term of the 2022 Note, all or part of the Note was convertible into up to 818,181,819 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, at the option of the holder. In connection with the SPA, DSSI surrendered to the Company all DSSI’s rights pursuant to: (a) the Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $30.0 million discussed in the preceding paragraph, and (b) the detachable Warrant to purchase up to 150,000,000 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock discussed in the preceding paragraph. In March 2023, the parties entered into a Securities Exchange and Amendment Agreement pursuant to which the parties agreed to amend the 2022 Note by removing the conversion rights granted by the 2022 Note. The Company recognized the transaction with DSSI as a debt extinguishment in accordance with GAAP. Since DSSI is a related party, the difference between the fair value of the new equity instruments and the carrying value of the retired equity instruments was recognized as a deemed dividend in the Company’s financial statements in the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023.

 

In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, the Company issued a fully vested warrant to purchase up to 8,444,663 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at the exercise price of $0.0001 per share, to the Company’s CEO John “JT” Thatch. The fair value of the warrant on the grant date was $109,780.

 

During fiscal year 2020, subsidiaries of the Company entered multi-year employment agreements with its key employees. In general, each employment contract contained a fully vested initial grant of warrants exercisable at a fixed exercise price and, provided for subsequent grants that were exercisable at a discounted price based on the 10-day average stock price determined at the time of exercise. The subsequent grants would vest at each anniversary date of the employment agreement effective date. The Company begins recognizing the compensatory nature of the warrants at the service inception date and ceases recognition at the vesting date. Due to the variable nature of the exercise price for some grants, the Company will continue to recognize expense (or benefit) after the end of the service period until the warrants are exercised or expire. As such, the Company disclosures below are based on either (i) the fixed exercise price of the warrant; or (ii) the variable exercise price of the warrant as determined on the last day of the period.

 

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, the Company recognized a compensatory gain of $0 and $114,960, respectively, in connection with grants with a variable exercise price after service is completed.

Legal Matters in General

 

The Company has incurred several claims in the normal course of business. The Company believes such claims can be resolved without any material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

 

The Company maintains certain liability insurance. However, certain costs of defending lawsuits are not covered by or only partially covered by its insurance policies, including claims that are below insurance deductibles. Additionally, insurance carriers could refuse to cover certain claims, in whole or in part. The Company accrues costs to defend itself from litigation as they are incurred.

 

The outcome of litigation is uncertain, and despite management’s view of the merits of any litigation, or the reasonableness of the Company’s estimates and reserves, the Company’s financial statements could nonetheless be materially affected by an adverse judgment. The Company believes it has adequately reserved for the contingencies arising from current legal matters where an outcome was deemed to be probable, and the loss amount could be reasonably estimated. No provision for legal matters was deemed necessary at September 30, 2023.

Overview

 

Summary Description of Business

 

Sharing Services Global Corporation and subsidiaries (“Sharing Services”, “we,” or the “Company”) aim to build shareholder value by developing or acquiring businesses and technologies that increase the Company’s product and services portfolio, business competencies, and geographic reach.

 

Currently, the Company, through its subsidiaries, markets and distributes its health and wellness and other products primarily in the U.S. and Canada using a direct selling business model. In addition, the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries market our products and services through an independent sales force, using their proprietary websites, including: www.thehappyco.com.

 

The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 24, 2015.

 

As further discussed below, the Company intends to continue to grow its business both organically and by making strategic acquisitions from time to time of businesses and technologies that augment its product portfolio, complement its business competencies, and fit its growth strategy.

 

Convertible Notes and Borrowing Under Short-term Financing Arrangements

 

Historically, the Company has funded a substantial portion of its liquidity and cash needs through the intermittent issuance of convertible notes and borrowings under short-term financing arrangements, and through the intermittent issuance of equity securities. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below for additional information about the Company’s convertible notes and borrowings under short-term financing arrangements.

Results of Operations

 

The Three months ended September 30, 2023, Compared to the Three months ended September 30, 2022

 

Net Sales

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our consolidated net sales decreased by $1.8 million, or 42.5%, to $2.4 million, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in net sales mainly reflects: (a) continuation of the decline in consumer orders that we experienced since the fiscal year 2020, (b) a decline in independent distributor orders, in the number of new independent distributors and in the number of continuing active distributors, resulting, in part, from recent product reformulations and increased competition for independent distributors, and (c) the generally adverse impact on consumer buying trends resulting from the recent increase in consumer good prices and in energy costs in the U.S.

 

The $1.8 million decrease in consolidated net sales primarily reflects a decrease in the number of comparable product units sold.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, the Company derived substantially all its consolidated net sales from the sale of its health and wellness product line.

 

Gross Profit

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our consolidated gross profit decreased by $0.7 million, or 28.4 %, to $1.7 million, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, and our consolidated gross margins were 72.2% and 58%, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, gross margin benefited from a decrease in shipping expenses and promotional pricing, as a percentage of sales.

 

Selling and Marketing Expenses

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our consolidated selling and marketing expenses decreased by $1.3 million, to $0.7 million, or 30.8% of consolidated net sales, compared to $2.0 million, or 48.7% of consolidated net sales, for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The $1.3 million decrease in consolidated selling and marketing expenses is due primarily to lower sales commissions of $0.7 million (which reflects the decrease in our consolidated net sales discussed above).

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our consolidated general and administrative expenses (which include corporate employee compensation and benefits, stock-based compensation, professional fees, rent and other occupancy costs, certain consulting fees, telephone and information technology expenses, insurance premiums, and other administrative expenses) decreased by $2.4 million, to $2.0 million, or 87.9% of consolidated net sales compared to $4.6 million, or 108.8% of consolidated net sales, for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The $2.4 million decrease in consolidated general and administrative expenses was primarily due to lower consulting expense of approximately $1.7 million, and lower employee compensation and compensation-related benefits of $0.9 million due to less headcount year over year.

 

Interest Expense, Net

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, our consolidated interest expense was $387,907, excluding amortization of debt discount and amortization of deferred financing costs of $1.6 million.

The Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $188,842 in connection therewith.

For the six months ended September 30, 2023, our consolidated net sales decreased by $4.2 million, or 44.3%, to $5.3 million, compared to the six months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in net sales mainly reflects: (a) continuation of the decline in consumer orders that we experienced since the fiscal year 2020, (b) a decline in independent distributor orders, in the number of new independent distributors and in the number of continuing active distributors, resulting, in part, from recent product reformulations and increased competition for independent distributors, and (c) the generally adverse impact on consumer buying trends resulting from the recent increase in consumer good prices and in energy costs in the U.S. In efforts to restore strong sales growth, in the past several months, we have further intensified our efforts to recruit, develop and reward our distributors and our efforts to reach new consumers, including through the continued introduction of new products.

 

The $4.2 million decrease in consolidated net sales primarily reflects a decrease in the number of comparable product units sold.

 

During the six months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, the Company derived substantially all its consolidated net sales from the sale of its Elevate health and wellness product line.

The decrease in consolidated selling and marketing expenses is due primarily to lower sales commissions of $1.8 million (which reflects decrease in our consolidated net sales discussed above) and lower sales convention expenses of $0.5 million.

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

For the six months ended September 30, 2023, our consolidated general and administrative expenses (which include corporate employee compensation and benefits, stock-based compensation, professional fees, rent and other occupancy costs, certain consulting fees, telephone and information technology expenses, insurance premiums, and other administrative expenses) decreased by approximately $4.7 million to $4.4 million, or 83% of consolidated net sales compared to $9.1 million, or 96% of consolidated net sales, for the six months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in consolidated general and administrative expenses was primarily driven by lower professional and legal expenses by $3.1 million, decrease on employee compensation and related benefits by $1.4 million.

 

Interest Expense

 

For the six months ended September 30, 2023, our consolidated interest expense was $1.1 million, excluding amortization of debt discount and amortization of deferred financing costs of $2.0 million, and interest income of $290,024.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We broadly define liquidity as our ability to generate sufficient cash, from internal and external sources, to meet our obligations and commitments. We believe that, for this purpose, liquidity cannot be considered separately from capital resources.

 

Working Capital

 

Working capital (total current assets minus total current liabilities). We had a deficiency in our working capital of approximately $2.0 million as of September 30, 2023, compared to $33.9 million as of March 31, 2023.

 

As of September 30, 2023, and March 31, 2023, our cash and cash equivalents were $1.4 million and $3.0 million, respectively. Based upon the current level of operations and anticipated investments necessary to grow our business, we believe that anticipated funds from operations will likely be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements over the next 12 months.

 

 

We have implemented measures to restructure our business operations and reduce our monthly cash burns and operating loss. Such measures include, and are not limited to, headcount reduction and elimination of certain overhead and consulting fees. Based upon the current level of operations and anticipated investments necessary to sustain/grow our business, we believe that existing cash balances and anticipated funds from operations will likely be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements over the next 12 months.

 

Historical Cash Flows

 

Historically, our primary sources of cash have been capital transactions involving the issuance of equity securities and secured and unsecured debt (See “Short-term Borrowings and Convertible Notes” below) and cash flows from operating activities; and our primary uses of cash have been for operating activities, capital expenditures, acquisitions, net cash advances to related parties, and debt repayments in the ordinary course of our business.

 

The following table summarizes our cash flow activities for the six months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the six months ended September 30, 2022:

Decrease in cash and cash equivalents  $(1,609,546)  $(10,564,401)

 

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities

 

For the six months ended September 30, 2023, net cash used in operating activities was $3.0 million, compared to $5.4 million for the six months ended September 30, 2022. The $2.5 million decrease was due to a decline in operating losses of $2.3 million (excluding non-cash items, such as depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, provision for obsolete inventory losses, amortization of debt discount, unrealized gain (loss) on investments, losses on impairment of investments in unconsolidated entities and notes receivable, and gains on extinguishment of debt), and a change in operating assets and liabilities of $207,021.

For the six months ended September 30, 2023, net cash used in investing activities was $0, compared to $11.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 2022. The $11.5 million change was due to lower capital expenditures.

For the six months ended September 30, 2023, net cash provided by financing activities was $1.2 million, compared to $6.5 million for the six months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was due to lower proceeds from loans under promissory notes, net of loan repayments, of $7.5 million. The decrease was partially offset by lower Sharing Services common stock received in connection with a litigation settlement of $1.0 million.

 

Impact of currency rate changes in cash

 

For the six months ended September 30, 2023, the impact of currency rate changes in cash was $160,759, compared to negative $150,122 for the six months ended September 30, 2022.

HWH International, Inc.

 

In October 2017, the Company issued a Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $50,000 (the “Note”) to HWH International, Inc. (“HWH” or the “Holder”). HWH is affiliated with Heng Fai Ambrose Chan, who in April 2020 became a Director of the Company. The Note is convertible into 333,333 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Concurrent with issuance of the Note, the Company issued to HWH a detachable stock warrant to purchase up to an additional 333,333 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.15 per share. Under the terms of the Note and the detachable stock warrant, the Holder is entitled to certain financing rights. If the Company enters into more favorable transactions with a third-party investor, it must notify the Holder and may have to amend and restate the Note and the detachable stock warrant to be identical.

 

On August 9, 2022, HWH and the Company executed an agreement to settle the Note and cancel the related stock warrant for $78,636, which amount represents the principal plus accrued interest. The Company made the payment to HWH on August 9, 2022.

 

Capital Requirements

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2023, there were no capital expenditures for property and equipment (consisting of furniture and fixtures, computer equipment and software, other office equipment and leasehold improvements) in the ordinary course of our business.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

There were no material changes to our contractual cash obligations during the three months ended September 30, 2023.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements

 

As of September 30, 2023, we had no off-balance sheet financing arrangements.

 

Inflation

 

In recent history, inflation has generally been low in the geographies where we operate. However, during the fiscal period covered by this Quarterly Report, the inflation rate in the United States averaged around 4%, primarily as a result of higher energy, housing, and food costs. Please see “Our business and financial performance could be adversely affected by inflation contained in ITEM 1A, — “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023.

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

There were no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting estimates or assumptions since March 31, 2023.

 

Accounting Changes and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

For discussion of accounting changes and recent accounting pronouncements, see Note 3 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

 

The Company is a Smaller Reporting Company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, and, accordingly, is not required to provide the information called for by this Item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of the end of the fiscal period covered by this Quarterly Report, and concluded that, as of September 30, 2023, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management and its Board of Directors, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

 

Limitations on the Company’s Controls and Procedures. We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud. Any system of controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. Because of the limitations in all such systems, no evaluation can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud (if any) within the Company have been detected. Furthermore, the design of any system of disclosure controls and procedures is based in part upon assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how unlikely. Because of these inherent limitations in a cost-effective system of controls and procedures, misstatements and/or omissions due to error or fraud may occur undetected.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. During our most recent fiscal quarter, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023. Unless so stated, the disclosures in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not repeal the disclosures in our consolidated financial statements for year ended March 31, 2023.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the use of judgment and requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities, if any. Matters that require the use of estimates and assumptions include, among others: the recoverability of accounts and notes receivable, the valuation of inventory, the useful lives of fixed assets, the assessment of long-lived assets for impairment, the nature and timing of satisfaction of multiple performance obligations resulting from contracts with customers, the allocation of the transaction price to multiple performance obligations in a sales transaction, the measurement and recognition of right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities, the valuation of share-based compensation awards, the provision for income taxes, the measurement and recognition of uncertain tax positions, the valuation of long-term debt covenants, and the valuation of loss contingencies, if any. Actual results may differ from these estimates in amounts that may be material to our consolidated financial statements. We believe that the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements are reasonable.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include recent customer remittances deposited with our merchant processors at the balance sheet date, which generally settle within 24 to 72 hours. As of September 30, 2023, and March 31, 2023, cash and cash equivalents included cash held by our merchant processors of approximately $0.05 million and $0.5 million, respectively. In addition, as of September 30, 2023, and March 31, 2023, cash and cash equivalents held in bank accounts in foreign countries in the ordinary course of business were approximately $0.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively. Amounts held by our merchant processor or held in bank accounts located in foreign countries are generally not insured by any federal agency.

 

Inventory

Inventory

 

Inventory consists of finished goods and promotional materials and are stated at the lower of cost, determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method, or net realizable value. The Company periodically assesses its inventory levels when compared to current and anticipated sales levels. As of September 30, 2023, and March 31, 2023, the allowance for obsolete inventory was $881,868 and $880,926, respectively, in connection with health and wellness product that is damaged, expired or otherwise in excess of forecasted outputs, based on our current and anticipated sales levels. The Company reports its provisions for inventory losses in cost of goods sold in its condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

 

Other Receivable and Loan Payable

Other Receivable and Loan Payable

 

In July 2023, the Company, through its out-sourced payroll services provider (“Paychex”), submitted a claim to the Internal Revenue Services (“IRS”) for the Employee Retention Tax Credit (“ERTC credit”) based on its payroll records and other pertinent information. Refunds will be distributed based on IRS processing times and the total ERTC credit will be approximately $1.88 million. Such the likelihood of receiving the ERTC credit is probable and the amount is estimable, the Company has recorded its ERTC credit in the Other Receivable.

 

Through the introduction of Paychex, the Company successfully applied for an ERTC loan (“bridge loan”) in August 2023. The bridge loan that was approved came to $1.2 million, and it was recoded as a Loan Payable. The loan is for a 12-month period and carries a 2% monthly interest rate. The loan proceeds must be used solely and exclusively for working capital and other business purposes and it had an origination fee of $24,000. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $1.18 million on September 9, 2023.

 

Other Assets

Other Assets

 

Other assets include a multi-user license and code of a back-office platform that was acquired for $1,000,000 in 2022. This back-office platform is designed to facilitate the computation and processing of commission payments to distributors, and it requires customization in order for it to be operational. Costs associated with the customization and build out of the platform has been capitalized in accordance with ASC 350 - Capitalization on Internal-Use Software Costs.

 

Loans Payable

On September 15, 2022, Linden Real Estate Holdings, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, American Pacific Bancorp, Inc.

The loan bears interest at the annual rate of 8%, matures on September 1, 2024, and is secured by a first mortgage interest on the Company’s Lindon, Utah office building. In connection with this loan, the Company received net proceeds of $5,522,829 from APB on September 17, 2022. APB is a subsidiary of DSS, Inc, a major stockholder of the Company. Heng Fai Ambrose Chan, and Frank D. Heuszel, each a Director of the Company, also serve on the Board of Directors of APB. Monthly payments of principal and interest in the amount of $43,897 have been made beginning July 1, 2022, and are payable on the same date of each month thereafter.

 

On August 11, 2022, the Company executed a revolving credit promissory note with APB (“the APB Revolving Note”) pursuant to which the Company has access to advances with a maximum principal balance not to exceed the principal sum of $10 million. The APB Revolving Note included origination fees of $600,000. The Note is collateralized by the assets of the Company, and it bears interest at the annual rate of 8% and such interest shall be due and payable quarterly. Interest payments on the loan are due and payable on the last day of each consecutive third calendar month until the maturity date of August 12, 2024. On December 9, 2022, APB and the Company mutually agreed to limit and/or end any further commitment by APB to fund or to readvance under the terms of the APB Revolving Note.

 

Effective June 30, 2023, the Company, and Decentralized Sharing Systems, Inc. (“DSSI”), entered into an Assignment of Limited Liability Company Interests agreement pursuant to which: (a) DSSI assumed approximately $7.24 million in SHRG liabilities secured by certain Commercial Real Estate, (b) DSSI credited SHRG $239,790 towards accrued interest payable under the 2022 Note (the “$27.0 million loan”), and (c) DSSI acquired ownership of Linden Real Estate Holdings LLC, with its sole asset being a commercial lot and commercial building located in Lindon, Utah, subject to the assumed indebtedness.

Pursuant to the debt exchange agreement, the principal amount together with all unpaid interest, totaling $26,169,367.33 was deemed to be repaid. The holder of Preferred D Stock is entitled to receive dividends in cash valued at a rate of 25% per annum of the operating income of the Company. Any accrued and unpaid dividends shall be payable in cash commencing on August 31, 2024 and continuing each annual anniversary of such date on a perpetual basis.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The functional currency of each of our foreign operations is generally the respective local currency. Balance sheet accounts are translated into U.S. dollars (our reporting currency) at the rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date, while the results of operations and cash flows are generally translated using average exchange rates for the periods presented. Individual material transactions, if any, are translated using the actual rate of exchange on the transaction date. The resulting translation adjustments are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. In September 2021, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, commenced operations in the Republic of Korea (South Korea).

Recently Issued Accounting Standards - Pending Adoption

Recently Issued Accounting Standards - Pending Adoption

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (ASU 2020-06), which simplifies the accounting for certain convertible instruments. Among other things, under ASU 2020-06, the embedded conversion features no longer must be separated from the host contract for convertible instruments with conversion features not required to be accounted for as derivatives, or that do not result in substantial premiums accounted for as paid-in capital. ASU 2020-06 also eliminates the use of the treasury stock method when calculating the impact of convertible instruments on diluted Earnings per Share. For the Company, the provisions of ASU 2020-06 are effective for its fiscal quarter beginning on April 1, 2024. Early adoption is permitted, subject to certain limitations. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of adoption on its consolidated financial statements.
