Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company completed a series of debt and equity financings and an initial public offering (the “IPO”) resulting in net proceeds of approximately $12.8 million, but sustained a net loss of approximately $20.0 million and had consumed cash in operating activities of approximately $6.0 million during the period.

 

To date, the Company has satisfied its capital needs with the net proceeds from its issuance of notes payable and bank debt. Company management expects to continue to incur net losses and have significant cash outflows for at least the next 12 months.

 

Based on its analysis, the Company concluded that, following the acquisition of Ceautamed Worldwide, LLC described in Note 14 and with additional debt or equity issuances of approximately $2.5 million, it will have the ability to continue as a going concern for at least the next 12 months.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. These estimates include, among other items, assessing the collectability of receivables, the realization of deferred taxes, useful lives and recoverability of tangible and intangible assets, assumptions used in the valuation of options, the computation of revenue based on the proportional delivery of services, and accruals for commitments and contingencies. Some of these estimates can be subjective and complex and, consequently, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

 

Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three (3) months or less to be cash equivalents. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts represents the Company’s estimate for uncollectible receivables based on a review of specific accounts and the Company’s historical collection experience. The Company writes off specific accounts based on an ongoing review of collectability, as well as management’s past experience with the customers. Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $17,596 and $17,170 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

 

Inventory, net

 

Inventory consists of raw materials, work in progress, and finished goods and is valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value. An allowance for inventory obsolescence is provided for slow moving or obsolete inventory to write down historical cost to net realizable value.

 

The allowance for obsolescence is an estimate established through charges to cost of goods sold. Management’s judgment in determining the adequacy of the allowance is based upon several factors which include, but are not limited to, analysis of slow-moving inventory, analysis of the selling price of inventory, the predetermined shelf life of the product, and management’s judgment with respect to current economic conditions. Given the nature of the inventory, it is reasonably possible the Company’s estimate of the allowance for obsolescence will change in the near term.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major betterments and additions are charged to the asset accounts, while replacements, maintenance and repairs which do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are charged to expense as incurred. The Company provides for depreciation and amortization over the estimated useful lives of various assets using the straight-line method ranging from 3-7 years.

 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill is not amortized but is subject to annual impairment tests. In addition to the annual impairment review, impairment reviews are performed whenever circumstances indicate a possible impairment may exist. Impairment testing for goodwill is done at the reporting unit level. The Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit assets to the carrying amount, on at least an annual basis, to determine if there is potential impairment. If the fair value of the reporting unit assets is less than their carrying value, an impairment loss will be recognized. No goodwill impairments were recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

 

Intangible assets consist of customer relationships, non-compete agreements, license agreements, goodwill, and intellectual property acquired in the acquisitions of BSNM, DSO, Nexus, and GSP. The Company amortizes intangible assets with finite lives on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives which ranges from 3 to 15 years.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company assesses potential impairments to its long-lived assets when there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recovered. An impairment loss is recognized when the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by an asset (or group of assets) is less than its carrying amount. Any required impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the asset’s carrying value exceeds its fair value and is recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the related asset and a charge to operating results. The Company had no impairment of long-lived assets at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Lease Right-of-Use Assets and Liabilities

 

The Company records a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases are classified either as finance or operating with the classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition.

 

Lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the remaining lease payments and are discounted using the most reasonable incremental borrowing rate. The Company uses the implicit rate when it is readily determinable. Since the Company’s lease does not provide an implicit rate, to determine the present value of lease payments, management uses the Company’s incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at lease commencement. Leases with a term of 12 months or less at inception are not recorded on our balance sheet and are expensed on a straight- line basis over the lease term.

 

Valuation of Derivative Instruments

 

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815-10, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815-10”), requires that embedded derivative instruments be bifurcated and assessed, along with freestanding derivative instruments such as convertible promissory notes, on their issuance date to determine whether they would be considered a derivative liability and measured at their fair value for accounting purposes. The Company evaluates all of it financial instruments, including stock purchase warrants, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then revalued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported as charges or credits to income.

 

For option based simple derivative financial instruments, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is reassessed at the end of each reporting period.

 

Beneficial Conversion Feature

 

For conventional convertible debt issued before the adoption of ASU 2020-06, where the rate of conversion is below market value, the Company records a “beneficial conversion feature” (“BCF”) discount against the face amount of the respective debt instrument (offset to additional paid in capital).

 

When the Company records a BCF which is not a conventional convertible, the fair value of the BCF is recorded as a derivative liability with an offset against the face amount of the respective debt instrument which is and amortized to interest expense over the term of the debt.

 

Debt Issuance Cost

 

In accordance with ASC 835-30, Other Presentation Matters, the Company has reported debt issuance cost as a deduction from the carrying amount of debt and amortizes these costs using the effective interest method over the term of the debt as interest expense.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company evaluates and recognize revenue by:

 

  identifying the contract(s) with the customer,
     
  identifying the performance obligations in the contract,
     
  determining the transaction price,
     
  allocating the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and
     
  recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied through the transfer of a promised good or service to a customer (i.e., “transfer of control”).

Products (BSNM, DSO and GSP)

 

The Company generates product revenues by manufacturing and packaging of nutraceutical products as a contract manufacturer for customers. The majority of the Company’s revenue is recognized when it satisfies a single performance obligation by transferring control of its products to a customer. Control is generally transferred when the Company’s products are either shipped or delivered based on the terms contained within the underlying contracts or agreements. The Company’s general payment terms are short-term in duration. The Company does not have significant financing components or payment terms. The Company did not have any material unsatisfied performance obligations at June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

 

Distribution expenses to transport the Company’s products, where applicable, and warehousing expense after manufacture are accounted for within operating expenses.

 

Advertising/Marketing (Nexus)

 

Nexus generates advertising revenue when sales of listed products are sold by product vendors through its network as a result of the marketing efforts of digital marketers. The products on the network come from several different customers, which pay Nexus a specific amount per sale, the amount of which is dictated by the customer. The revenue is recognized upon the sale of a product by the customer, net of fraudulent traffic or disputed transactions. A portion of the specific amount received by Nexus for that sale is paid out to the digital marketer as a commission, which is recorded in cost of sales.

 

Nexus’ general payment terms are short-term in duration. Nexus does not have significant financing components or payment terms. Nexus did not have any material unsatisfied performance obligations at June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

 

Freight

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, freight costs amounted to $528,949 and $68,724, respectively, and have been recorded in cost of revenues, products in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations.

 

Advertising

 

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were $1,254,356 and $5,589, respectively, and have been recorded in cost of revenues, advertising, in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations.

 

Paycheck Protection Program

 

The Company records Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan proceeds in accordance with ASC 470, Debt. Debt is extinguished when either the debtor pays the creditor or the debtor is legally released from being the primary obligor, either judicially or by the creditor.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

The Company recognizes expense for stock options and warrants granted over the vesting period based on the fair value of the award at the grant date, are valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair market value of the stock options. The Company calculates the amount of tax benefit available by tracking each stock option award on an employee-by-employee basis and on a grant-by-grant basis. The Company then compares the recorded expense to the tax deduction received for each stock option grant.

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income tax under the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes. The Company records a liability for uncertain tax positions when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has no liabilities for uncertain tax positions. The Company continually evaluates expiring statutes of limitations, audits, proposed settlements, changes in tax law and new authoritative rulings. The Company’s tax years subject to examination by tax authorities generally remain open for three (3) years from the date of filing.

 

The provision for income taxes is computed using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating losses and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in effect for the years in which those tax assets are expected to be realized or settled. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

 

Recent Accounting Standard Issued Not Yet Adopted

 

On August 5, 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity. The ASU is part of the FASB’s simplification initiative, which aims to reduce unnecessary complexity in GAAP. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2023. The Company believes that the adoption of this ASU will not have a material impact to the condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Accounting Pronouncement Adopted

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. This standard simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for areas of ASC 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. This standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2022, with early adoption permitted. Depending on the amendment, adoption may be applied on a retrospective, modified retrospective, or prospective basis. The Company has determined that the adoption of this standard does not have an impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 8 — Fair Value Measurement

 

The following are the hierarchical levels of inputs to measure fair value:

 

·Level 1 – Observable inputs that reflect quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

·Level 2 – Inputs reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities; or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

 

·Level 3 – Unobservable inputs reflecting the Company’s assumptions incorporated in valuation techniques used to determine fair value. These assumptions are required to be consistent with market participant assumptions that are reasonably available.

 

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses, other current assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, certain notes payable and notes payable – related party, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

 

The Company recognizes its derivative liabilities as level 3 and values its derivatives using the methods discussed below. While the Company believes that its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, it recognizes that the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date. The primary assumptions that would significantly affect the fair values using terms in the notes that are subject to volatility and market price of the underlying common stock of the Company.

 

As of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, the Company did not have any derivative instruments that were designated as hedges.

 

The derivative liability as of June 30, 2022 in the amount of $202,681 is related to conversion feature on the outstanding convertible notes not converted by the noteholders as of June 30, 2022.

 

Fluctuations in the Company’s stock price are a primary driver for the changes in the derivative valuations during each reporting period. Generally, as the stock price decreases for each of the related convertible notes that have an embedded derivative liability, the value of the derivative liability decreases. Stock price is one of the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of each of the Company’s convertible notes with an embedded derivative liability.

 

The Company used the Black-Scholes Model to measure the fair value of the derivative liabilities as $202,681 and will subsequently remeasure the fair value at the end of each period, and record the change of fair value in the consolidated statement of operation during the corresponding period.

 

The following table provides a summary of changes in fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities for the period ended June 30, 2022:

 

Derivative Liability, December 31,2021  $ 
Day 1 Loss   41,933

Note 9 — Debt

 

12% Unsecured Subordinated Convertible Debentures

 

On November 5, 2021, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain investors, pursuant to which it sold 12% unsecured subordinated convertible debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $2,250,000 to such investors for gross proceeds of $2,214,000, the proceeds of which were used to fund the acquisition of Nexus. Interest at a rate of 12% per annum accrued on the principal balance of the debentures from the date of issuance until February 14, 2022, the date that the registration statement related to the IPO was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “IPO Date”). The debentures are due and payable on the earliest of the maturity date, November 30, 2022, or upon their earlier conversion or redemption. As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding principal balance of the debentures was $2,250,000 and debt issuance cost was $67,250.

 

At any time after August 14, 2022, the sixth month anniversary of the IPO Date, the holders may convert the principal amount of the debentures into shares of common stock at a conversion price that is equal to the lower of $2.50 and the lowest volume weighted average price during the 10 trading days immediately following the IPO; provided further, that the conversion price shall not be less than $1.00. The conversion price is subject to standard equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock combinations, recapitalizations, and similar transactions. The debentures contain beneficial ownership limitations which limit the holders’ beneficial ownership to 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. The Company may redeem some or all of the outstanding principal amount of the debentures for cash in an amount equal to 115% of the outstanding principal amount of the debentures, plus accrued but unpaid interest and any other amounts due under the debentures. The securities purchase agreement and the debentures contain customary representations, warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default for loans of this type. The debentures are guaranteed by each of the Company’s subsidiaries.

 

Original Issue Discount Subordinated Debentures

 

On June 9, 2022, the Company entered into a debenture purchase agreement with certain investors, pursuant to which it sold original issue discount subordinated debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $1,755,883 to such investors. The debentures contain an original issue discount of 15%, or an aggregate original issue discount of $255,883. As a result, the total purchase price was $1,500,000. The debentures bear interest at a rate of 17.5% per annum. The outstanding principal amount and all accrued interest is due and payable on the earlier of (i) the completion of the Company’s next equity financing in which it receives gross proceeds in excess of $20 million, (ii) June 9, 2024 or (iii) within 30 days after election of repayment from the holder so long as the election is after the 6-month anniversary of the debenture. The Company may voluntarily prepay the debentures in whole or in part without premium or penalty. The debenture purchase agreement and the debentures contain customary representations and warranties and events of default for a loan of this type. The debentures are unsecured and are subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all senior indebtedness and are pari passu in right of payment to any other unsecured indebtedness incurred by the Company in favor of any third party. As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding principal balance of the debentures was $1,764,707 and debt issuance cost was $264,707.

From time to time, the Company may become subject to threatened and/or asserted claims arising in the ordinary course of business. Management is not aware of any matters, either individually or in the aggregate, that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.

On July 29, 2022, the parties entered into a first amendment to securities purchase agreement to amend certain terms of the securities purchase agreement. On the same date, closing of the acquisition was completed.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the securities purchase agreement, as amended, the Company acquired Ceautamed for an aggregate purchase price of $8,600,000, subject to adjustments as described below. The purchase price consists of (i) $3,000,000 in cash, of which $1,000,000 was previously paid by the Company and $2,000,000 was paid at closing, (ii) secured subordinated convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $2,150,000; (iii) secured subordinated promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $2,150,000 and (iv) secured subordinated promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $1,300,000.

 

The purchase price is subject to a post-closing working capital adjustment provision. Within ninety (90) days after the closing, the Company is required to deliver to the sellers an unaudited balance sheet of Ceautamed and its subsidiaries as of the closing date and its calculation of the closing working capital (as defined in the securities purchase agreement). If such closing working capital exceeds a minimum working capital equal to the average monthly working capital of Ceautamed for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2021 by more than $150,000, then the Company must promptly (and, in any event, within five (5) business days) pay to the sellers an amount that is equal to such excess. If such minimum working capital exceeds the closing working capital, then the sellers must promptly (and, in any event, within five (5) business days) pay to the Company an amount that is equal to the deficiency.

The notes contain customary “piggyback” registration rights with respect to the common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes.

 

The secured subordinated promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $2,150,000 shall bear interest at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum and mature on July 29, 2025; provided that upon an event of default (as defined in the notes), such interest rate shall increase to ten percent (10%).

Overview

 

We are engaged in the development, marketing, manufacturing, acquisition, operation, and sale of a broad spectrum of nutritional and related products with an emphasis on health and wellness. Structured as a global holding company, we are executing a buy-and-build strategy with serial accretive acquisitions creating a vertically integrated company with an objective of aggregating companies generating a minimum of $300 million in revenues within the next thirty-six months. To drive growth and earnings, we are developing proprietary products as well as acquiring other profitable companies, encompassing brands, manufacturing, and distribution channels.

 

We also operate a network platform in the affiliate marketing space. Affiliate marketing is an advertising model in which a product vendor compensates third-party digital marketers to generate traffic or leads for the product vendor’s products and services. The third-party digital marketers are referred to as affiliates, and the commission fee incentivizes them to find ways to promote the products being sold by the product vendor.

 

On March 8, 2018, we acquired 51% of Millenium Natural Manufacturing Corp. and Millenium Natural Health Products Inc. and on October 9, 2019, we acquired the remaining 49% of these companies. On September 30, 2020, we changed the name of Millenium Natural Manufacturing Corp. to Bonne Sante Natural Manufacturing, Inc. (“BSNM”), and on November 24, 2020, we merged Millenium Natural Health Products Inc. into BSNM to better reflect our vertical integration. BSNM is a nutraceutical contract manufacturer. It specializes in a wide variety of products, from the private labeling of vitamins, dietary supplements, nutraceuticals, sport nutrition and broad-spectrum nutritional supplements, and sells them throughout the United States and around the world, including South America, Central America, and Europe.

 

On July 1, 2021, we acquired Doctors Scientific Organica, LLC, Oyster Management Services, Ltd., Lawee Enterprises, L.L.C. and U.S. Medical Care Holdings, L.L.C. On August 27, 2021, we transferred all of the equity interests of Oyster Management Services, Ltd., Lawee Enterprises, L.L.C. and U.S. Medical Care Holdings, L.L.C. to Doctors Scientific Organica, LLC. As a result, these entities are now wholly owned subsidiaries of Doctors Scientific Organica, LLC. In this report, we collectively refer to Doctors Scientific Organica, LLC and its consolidated subsidiaries as “DSO”. DSO manufactures, sells, and owns the Smart for Life brand of natural health and wellness meal replacement products. The brand includes proprietary hunger suppressing functional foods that are designed to work with the body’s natural ability to lose weight. It also develops premium supplements and commodities that will promote optimal health and wellness. DSO has over 15 years of experience providing high-quality products to premium retail locations and companies. Its branded vitamins and supplements are also being sold through Amazon, and this sales channel is becoming a major contributor to the growth of the brand online.

 

On August 24, 2021, we established Smart for Life Canada Inc. as a wholly owned subsidiary of DSO in Canada. This subsidiary sells retail products through a retail store location in Montreal Canada and the same location also acts as distribution center for our international direct to consumer and big box customers. We maintain inventory and employees at this location.

 

On November 8, 2021, we acquired Nexus Offers, Inc. (“Nexus”). Nexus operates a cost per action/cost per acquisition network. This network consists of hundreds of digital marketers who stand ready to market products introduced to the Nexus network. The cost per action/cost per acquisition model is where digital marketers are paid for an action (e.g., a product sale or lead generation) that is taken as a direct result of their marketing efforts. Through the digital marketer’s method of marketing, the digital marketer sends traffic to one of the product vendor’s offers listed on the network.

 

On December 6, 2021, we acquired GSP Nutrition Inc. (“GSP”). GSP is a sports nutrition company. It offers nutritional supplements for athletes and active lifestyle consumers through a variety of wellness solutions and delivery methods, including powders, tablets and soft gels that are formulated to support energy and performance; nutrition and wellness; and focus and clarity. GSP’s initial line of nutritional products are marketed under the Sports Illustrated Nutrition brand.

The product line currently consists of whey protein isolate powder, tablet supplements for joint health, nitric oxide, post workout blends, Omega-3 supplements, and pre-workout supplements, among others.

 

On May 19, 2022, SFL acquired Lavi Enterprises, LLC (“Lavi”) for $100. On the same date, SFL transferred all of the equity interests of Lavi to DSO. As a result, Lavi is now a wholly owned subsidiary of DSO.

Recent Developments

 

Closing of Ceautamed Acquisition

 

On March 14, 2022, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with Ceautamed Worldwide, LLC (“Ceautamed”) and RMB Industries, Inc., RTB Childrens Trust and D&D Hayes, LLC, pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding membership interests of Ceautamed, a vitamin and supplement company.

 

On July 29, 2022, the parties entered into a first amendment to securities purchase agreement to amend certain terms of the securities purchase agreement. On the same date, closing of the acquisition was completed.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the securities purchase agreement, as amended, the Company acquired Ceautamed for an aggregate purchase price of $8,600,000, subject to adjustments as described below. The purchase price consists of (i) $3,000,000 in cash, of which $1,000,000 was previously paid by the Company and $2,000,000 was paid at closing, (ii) secured subordinated convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $2,150,000; (iii) secured subordinated promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $2,150,000 and (iv) secured subordinated promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $1,300,000.

 

The purchase price is subject to a post-closing working capital adjustment provision. Within ninety (90) days after the closing, the Company is required to deliver to the sellers an unaudited balance sheet of Ceautamed and its subsidiaries as of the closing date and its calculation of the closing working capital (as defined in the securities purchase agreement). If such closing working capital exceeds a minimum working capital equal to the average monthly working capital of Ceautamed for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2021 by more than $150,000, then the Company must promptly (and, in any event, within five (5) business days) pay to the sellers an amount that is equal to such excess. If such minimum working capital exceeds the closing working capital, then the sellers must promptly (and, in any event, within five (5) business days) pay to the Company an amount that is equal to the deficiency. Such adjustments shall be paid as follows: (i) fifty percent (50%) shall be paid in cash, (ii) twenty-five percent (25%) shall be paid through an increase or reduction in the principal amount of the secured subordinated convertible promissory notes and (iii) twenty-five percent (25%) shall be paid through an increase or reduction in the principal amount of the secured subordinated promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $2,150,000.

 

The secured subordinated convertible promissory notes shall bear interest at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum with all principal and accrued interest being due and payable in one lump sum on July 29, 2025; provided that upon an event of default (as defined in the notes), such interest rate shall increase to ten percent (10%). The notes are convertible at the option of the holder into the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $6.25; provided that the holder may not elect to convert a portion of the outstanding principal in an amount less than the lesser of $200,000 or the remaining outstanding principal. The notes contain customary “piggyback” registration rights with respect to the common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes.

 

The secured subordinated promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $2,150,000 shall bear interest at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum and mature on July 29, 2025; provided that upon an event of default (as defined in the notes), such interest rate shall increase to ten percent (10%). The outstanding principal and all accrued interest shall be amortized on a five-year straight-line basis and payable quarterly in accordance with the amortization schedule set forth on Exhibit A to the notes. The Company may redeem all or any portion of the notes at any time without premium or penalty.

 

The secured subordinated promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $1,300,000 shall bear interest at the rate of five percent (5%) per annum with all principal and accrued interest being due and payable in one lump sum ninety (90) days from the date of the notes; provided that upon an event of default (as defined in the notes), such interest rate shall increase to ten percent (10%). The Company may redeem all or any portion of the notes at any time without premium or penalty.

 

All of the foregoing notes contain customary covenants and events of default for loans of this type, including upon any default under the senior indebtedness (as defined below). In the event of a change of control (as defined in the notes) with respect to the Company or any guarantor (as identified below), all obligations of the Company under the notes shall become immediately due and payable. The notes are guaranteed by Ceautamed and its subsidiaries Wellness Watchers Global, LLC and Greens First Female, LLC and are secured by a security interest in all of the assets of such guarantors. The notes are subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all senior indebtedness. For purposes of the notes, “senior indebtedness” means all senior secured indebtedness of the Company, whether outstanding or thereafter created, to banks, insurance companies, other financial institutions, private equity funds, hedge funds or other similar funds, and the original issue discount subordinated note described below; provided that any seller notes or other seller financing in connection with any acquisitions by the Company shall not constitute senior indebtedness.

The debentures contain an original issue discount of 15%, or an aggregate original issue discount of $110,294, resulting in a total purchase price of $625,000.

 

The debentures bear interest at a rate of 17.5% per annum. The outstanding principal amount and all accrued interest is due and payable on the earlier of (i) the completion of the Company’s next equity financing, (ii) July 29, 2024 or (iii) within 30 days after election of repayment from the holder so long as the election is after the 6-month anniversary of the debenture.

For purposes of the debentures, “senior indebtedness” means all indebtedness of the Company to banks, insurance companies and other financial institutions or funds, unless in the instrument creating or evidencing such indebtedness it is provided that such indebtedness is not senior in right of payment to the debentures or otherwise indicates that it is pari passu with other unsecured indebtedness of the Company.

 

Impact of Coronavirus Pandemic

 

Starting in late 2019, a novel strain of the coronavirus, or COVID-19, began to rapidly spread around the world and every state in the United States. At this time, there continues to be significant volatility and uncertainty relating to the full extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic and the various responses to it will impact our business, operations and financial results.

 

Most states and cities have at various times instituted quarantines, restrictions on travel, “stay at home” rules, social distancing measures and restrictions on the types of businesses that could continue to operate, as well as guidance in response to the pandemic and the need to contain it. Based on the nature of the business in our facilities in Doral and Riviera Beach, neither facility closed or operated at reduced capacity for our production and packaging operations. However, the situation surrounding COVID-19 remains fluid, and we may be required to close or limit capacity in our facilities in response to guidance from applicable government and public health officials, which could adversely affect our operations and revenues.

 

In addition, we are dependent upon certain contract manufacturers and suppliers and their ability to fulfill our orders reliably and efficiently is critical to our business success. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted and may continue to impact certain of our manufacturers and suppliers. As a result, we have faced and may continue to face delays or difficulty sourcing certain products and raw materials, which could negatively affect our business and financial results. Even if we are able to find alternate sources for such raw materials, they may cost more, which could adversely impact our profitability and financial condition.

 

28

 

The global deterioration in economic conditions, which may have an adverse impact on discretionary consumer spending, could also impact our business and demand for our products. For instance, consumer spending may be negatively impacted by general macroeconomic conditions, including a rise in unemployment, and decreased consumer confidence resulting from the pandemic. Changing consumer behaviors as a result of the pandemic may also have a material impact on our revenue.

 

The spread of COVID-19 has also adversely impacted global economic activity and has contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets. The pandemic has resulted, and may continue to result, in a significant disruption of global financial markets, which may reduce our ability to access capital in the future, which could negatively affect our liquidity.

 

If the COVID-19 pandemic does not continue to slow and the spread of COVID-19 is not contained, our business operations, including those of our contract manufacturers and suppliers, could be further delayed or interrupted. We expect that government and health authorities may announce new or extend existing restrictions, which could require us to make further adjustments to our operations in order to comply with any such restrictions. We may also experience limitations in employee resources. In addition, our operations could be disrupted if any of our employees were suspected of having COVID-19, which could require quarantine of some or all such employees or closure of our facilities for disinfection. The duration of any business disruption cannot be reasonably estimated at this time but may materially affect our ability to operate our business and result in additional costs.

 

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact our results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted as of the date of this report, including the effectiveness of vaccines and other treatments for COVID-19, and other new information that may emerge concerning the severity of the pandemic and steps taken to contain the pandemic or treat its impact, among others. Nevertheless, the pandemic and the current financial, economic and capital markets environment, and future developments in the global supply chain and other areas present material uncertainty and risk with respect to our performance, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

 

Principal Factors Affecting Our Financial Performance

 

Our operating results are primarily affected by the following factors:

 

our ability to acquire new customers or retain existing customers;

 

our ability to offer competitive product pricing;

 

our ability to broaden product offerings;

 

industry demand and competition; and

 

market conditions and our market position.

 

Emerging Growth Company

 

We qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). As a result, we will be permitted to, and intend to, rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements. For so long as we are an emerging growth company, we will not be required to:

 

have an auditor report on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;

 

comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (i.e., an auditor discussion and analysis);

 

submit certain executive compensation matters to stockholder advisory votes, such as “say-on-pay” and “say-on-frequency;” and

 

disclose certain executive compensation related items such as the correlation between executive compensation and performance and comparisons of the chief executive officer’s compensation to median employee compensation.

 

29

 

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Our financial statements may therefore not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

 

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of our initial public offering, (ii) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenues are $1.07 billion or more, (iii) the date that we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which would occur if the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter or (iv) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three year period.

This decrease was primarily due to decreased sales of our contract manufacturing services associated with certain supply constraints of products. The decrease was the result of a decrease in the volume of products sold and not due to pricing changes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2022, we had cash of $107,335. To date, we have financed our operations primarily through revenue generated from operations, bank borrowings and sales of our securities. Since our inception in 2017, we have experienced losses and as a result have continued to use cash in our operations. We have been dependent upon financing activities as we implement our acquisition strategy.

 

Although we believe that our current levels of cash, along with the recent acquisition of Ceautamed and with additional debt or equity issuances of approximately $2.5 million, will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for our operations for at least the next 12 months, we do believe additional funds are required to execute our business plan and our strategy of acquiring additional companies. As noted elsewhere in this report, over the next 24 months, we plan to acquire multiple companies aggregating a minimum of $100 million in annualized revenues with the number of prospective acquisitions in the pipeline representing over $50 million in additional revenue. The funds required to execute this business plan will depend on the size, capital structure and purchase price consideration that the seller of a target business deems acceptable in a given transaction. The amount of funds needed to execute our business plan also depends on what portion of the purchase price of a target business the seller of that business is willing to take in the form of seller notes or our equity or equity in one of our subsidiaries. As noted elsewhere in this report, we intend on paying no more than 60% cash on any acquisition that we execute with a target of 50%. Given these factors, we believe that the amount of outside additional capital necessary to execute our business plan for the next 24 months ranges from $20 million to $60 million. With respect to the prospective acquisitions in the pipeline representing over $50 million in additional revenue, the amount of capital needed ranges from $10 million to $30 million.

 

We intend to raise capital for additional acquisitions primarily through debt financing at our operating company level, additional equity offerings by the Company, or by undertaking a combination of any of the above. The sale of additional equity securities could result in dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financial covenants that would restrict our operations. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

 

There is no guarantee that we will be able to acquire additional businesses under the terms outlined above or that we will be able to find additional acquisition candidates should we terminate our plans for any of our current acquisition targets.

Initial Public Offering

 

On February 16, 2022, we entered into an underwriting agreement with Dawson James Securities, Inc., as representative of the several underwriters named on Schedule I thereto, relating to the IPO of units, each unit consisting of one share of common stock, a series A warrant to purchase one share of common stock and a series B warrant to purchase one share of common stock. Pursuant to the underwriting agreement, we agreed to sell 1,440,000 units to the underwriters, at a purchase price per unit of $9.10 (the offering price to the public of $10.00 per unit minus the underwriters’ discount), and also agreed to grant to the underwriters a 45-day option to purchase up to 216,000 additional shares of common stock, up to 216,000 additional series A warrants, and/or up to 216,000 additional series B warrants, in any combination thereof, at a purchase price to the public of $9.98 per share and $0.01 per warrant, less underwriting discounts and commissions, solely to cover over-allotments, if any.

 

On February 18, 2022, the closing of the IPO was completed. At the closing, the underwriters partially exercised the option and purchased 206,390 series A warrants and 206,390 series B warrants. Therefore, we sold 1,440,000 shares of common stock, 1,646,390 series A warrants and 1,646,390 series B warrants for total gross proceeds of $14,404,128. After deducting the underwriting commission and expenses, we received net proceeds of approximately $12,763,000. We used to the proceeds of the offering to pay off certain debt and plan to use the remaining net proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes.

 

The series A warrants are exercisable until the fifth anniversary of the issuance date at an exercise price equal to $7.00 per share and may be exercised on a cashless basis if the issuance of common stock upon exercise of the warrants is not covered by an effective registration statement. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the series A warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances, including in the event of a stock dividend, extraordinary dividend on or recapitalization, reorganization, merger, or consolidation.

The series B warrants are exercisable until the fifth anniversary of the issuance date at an exercise price equal to $10.00 per share and may be exercised on a cashless basis, whereby the holder will receive one share of common stock for each series B warrant exercised. As of June 30, 2022, 1,437,730 of the series B warrants were exercised on a cashless basis and we issued 1,437,730 shares of common stock upon such exercise.

Outstanding Debt

 

12% Unsecured Subordinated Convertible Debentures

 

On November 5, 2021, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain investors, pursuant to which we sold 12% unsecured subordinated convertible debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $2,250,000 to such investors for gross proceeds of $2,214,000, the proceeds of which were used to fund the acquisition of Nexus. In January 2022, the Company received an additional $36,000, bringing the gross proceeds to a total $2,250,000. Interest at a rate of 12% per annum accrued on the principal balance of the debentures from the date of issuance until February 14, 2022, the date that the registration statement related to the IPO was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “IPO Date”). The debentures are due and payable on the earliest of the maturity date, November 30, 2022, or upon their earlier conversion or redemption. As of June 30, 2021, the outstanding principal balance of the debentures was $2,250,000 and debt issuance cost was $67,250.

 

At any time after August 14, 2022, the sixth month anniversary of the IPO Date, the holders may convert the principal amount of the debentures into shares of common stock at a conversion price that is equal to the lower of $2.50 and the lowest volume weighted average price during the 10 trading days immediately following the IPO; provided further, that the conversion price shall not be less than $1.00. The conversion price is subject to standard equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock combinations, recapitalizations, and similar transactions. The debentures contain beneficial ownership limitations which limit the holders’ beneficial ownership to 9.99% of our outstanding common stock. We may redeem some or all of the outstanding principal amount of the debentures for cash in an amount equal to 115% of the outstanding principal amount of the debentures, plus accrued but unpaid interest and any other amounts due under the debentures. The securities purchase agreement and the debentures contain customary representations, warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default for loans of this type. The debentures are guaranteed by each of our subsidiaries.

 

Original Issue Discount Subordinated Debentures

 

On June 9, 2022, we entered into a debenture purchase agreement with certain investors, pursuant to which we sold original issue discount subordinated debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $1,755,883 to such investors. The debentures contain an original issue discount of 15%, or an aggregate original issue discount of $255,883. As a result, the total purchase price was $1,500,000. The debentures bear interest at a rate of 17.5% per annum. The outstanding principal amount and all accrued interest is due and payable on the earlier of (i) the completion of our next equity financing in which we receive gross proceeds in excess of $20 million, (ii) June 9, 2024 or (iii) within 30 days after election of repayment from the holder so long as the election is after the 6-month anniversary of the debenture. We may voluntarily prepay the debentures in whole or in part without premium or penalty. The debenture purchase agreement and the debentures contain customary representations and warranties and events of default for a loan of this type. The debentures are unsecured and are subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all senior indebtedness and are pari passu in right of payment to any other unsecured indebtedness incurred by us in favor of any third party. As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding principal balance of the debentures was $1,764,707 and debt issuance cost was $264,7073.

Our principal commitments consist mostly of obligations under the loans described above and pricing/margin structures for products established with our clients. We do not have any purchase obligations with any suppliers.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The following discussion relates to critical accounting policies. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We have identified certain accounting policies that are significant to the preparation of our financial statements. These accounting policies are important for an understanding of our financial condition and results of operation. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require management’s difficult, subjective, or complex judgment, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting the estimate may differ significantly from management’s current judgments. We believe the following critical accounting policies involve the most significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our financial statements:

 

Revenue Recognition. We evaluate and recognize revenue by: identifying the contract(s) with the customer; identifying the performance obligations in the contract; determining the transaction price; allocating the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied through the transfer of a promised good or service to a customer (i.e., “transfer of control”).

 

Products (BSNM, DSO and GSP)

 

We primarily generate product revenues by manufacturing and packaging of nutraceutical products as a contract manufacturer for customers. The majority of our revenue is recognized when we satisfy a single performance obligation by transferring control of products to a customer. Control is generally transferred when our products are either shipped or delivered based on the terms contained within the underlying contracts or agreements. Our general payment terms are short-term in duration. We do not have significant financing components or payment terms. We did not have any material unsatisfied performance obligations at June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

 

Distribution expenses to transport our products, where applicable, and warehousing expense after manufacture are accounted for within operating expenses.

Advertising/Marketing (Nexus)

 

Nexus generates advertising revenues when sales of listed products are sold by product vendors through its network as a result of the marketing efforts of digital marketers. The products on the network come from several different customers, which pay Nexus a specific amount per sale, the amount of which is dictated by the customer. The revenue is recognized upon the sale of a product by the customer, net of fraudulent traffic or disputed transactions. A portion of the specific amount received by Nexus for that sale is paid out to the digital marketer as a commission, which is recorded in cost of sales. To illustrate the revenue process, a digital marketer logs onto the platform and selects an offer to promote for the day. The platform generates a unique link which the digital marketer distributes either via email or a banner ad. As the link is distributed to the consumer via the marketing efforts of the digital marketer, the consumer visits that link to make a purchase from the customer’s website, and when such purchase is complete, revenue is recognized by Nexus and the sale is credited to the digital marketer’s Nexus account. The benefit to the digital marketer operating on Nexus’ network is that the digital marketer receives a commission without the possibility of a claw back or refund. The customer benefits through increased sales of its products as a result of the marketing efforts of the digital marketers. Nexus’ platform acts as the transaction ledger, keeping track of clicks, sales and commissions.

 

Nexus’ general payment terms are short-term in duration. Insertion orders are utilized between Nexus and the customer for each campaign related to a particular product being marketed. The insertion order remains in effect until the customer or Nexus terminates the order, and either party may terminate the order at any time upon 14 days’ written notice. The customer is billed weekly for the sales digital marketers have generated for the week. Nexus does not have significant financing components or payment terms. Nexus did not have any material unsatisfied performance obligations at June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021.

 

Inventory, net. Inventory consists of raw materials, work in progress, and finished goods and is valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value. An allowance for inventory obsolescence is provided for slow moving or obsolete inventory to write down historical cost to net realizable value. The allowance for obsolescence is an estimate established through charges to cost of goods sold. Management’s judgment in determining the adequacy of the allowance is based upon several factors which include, but are not limited to, analysis of slow-moving inventory, analysis of the selling price of inventory, the predetermined shelf life of the product, and management’s judgment with respect to current economic conditions. Given the nature of the inventory, it is reasonably possible our estimate of the allowance for obsolescence will change in the near term.

 

Property and Equipment. Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major betterments and additions are charged to the asset accounts, while replacements, maintenance and repairs which do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are charged to expense as incurred. We provide for depreciation and amortization over the estimated useful lives of various assets using the straight-line method ranging from 3-7 years.

 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets. Goodwill is not amortized but is subject to annual impairment tests. In addition to the annual impairment review, impairment reviews are performed whenever circumstances indicate a possible impairment may exist. Impairment testing for goodwill is done at the reporting unit level. We compare the fair value of the reporting unit assets to the carrying amount, on at least an annual basis, to determine if there is potential impairment. If the fair value of the reporting unit assets is less than their carrying value, an impairment loss will be recognized. No goodwill impairments were recognized during three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. Intangible assets consist of customer relationships, non-compete agreements, license agreements, goodwill, and intellectual property acquired in the acquisitions of BSNM, DSO, Nexus, and GSP. We amortize intangible assets with finite lives on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives which ranges from 3 to 15 years.

 

Long-Lived Assets. We assess potential impairments to its long-lived assets when there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recovered. An impairment loss is recognized when the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by an asset (or group of assets) is less than its carrying amount. Any required impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the asset’s carrying value exceeds its fair value and is recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the related asset and a charge to operating results. We had no impairment of long-lived assets at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

 

Lease Right-of-Use Assets and Liabilities. We record a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases are classified either as finance or operating with the classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition. Lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the remaining lease payments and are discounted using the most reasonable incremental borrowing rate. We use the implicit rate when it is readily determinable. Since our lease does not provide an implicit rate, to determine the present value of lease payments, management uses our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at lease commencement. Leases with a term of 12 months or less at inception are not recorded on our balance sheet and are expensed on a straight- line basis over the lease term.

 

38

 

Stock-based Compensation. We recognize expense for stock options and warrants granted over the vesting period based on the fair value of the award at the grant date, are valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair market value of the stock options. We calculate the amount of tax benefit available by tracking each stock option award on an employee-by-employee basis and on a grant-by-grant basis. We then compare the recorded expense to the tax deduction received for each stock option grant.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
