our Officers and Directors (the “Officers”). The Officers will not receive any commissions or proceeds for selling the shares
on our behalf. There is uncertainty that we will be able to sell any of the 400,000,000 shares being offered by the Company. All of the
shares being qualified for sale by the Company will be sold at a price of $0.10. There is no minimum amount we are required to

that we will sell any of the securities being offered in this offering.

There
is no guarantee that this Offering will successfully raise enough funds to institute our company’s business plan. Additionally,
although the shares of the Company trade on the OTCQB, the 30-day average trading volume as of October 1, 2021 was approximately 12,254
shares per day or approximately $1,300.00 per day.
This
primary offering will terminate upon the earliest of (i) such time as all of the common stock has been sold pursuant to the Offering
Statement or (ii) 365 days from the qualified date of this offering circular, unless extended by our director(s) for an additional 90
days. We may however, at any time and for any reason terminate the offering.

The
Company
Company
Background – Business Overview
We
were originally incorporated as “Nova Mining Corporation” in Nevada on December 29, 2005. After a change in control the Company
changed its name to “The Radiant Creations Group, Inc.” and we were focused on developing and marketing a skin crème
and other cosmetic and over-the-counter personal enhancement products and devices.
On
July 11, 2018, we closed our Subscription and Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with three investors, Carlsbad Naturals,
LLC, Ray Grimm, and Nish Mehta. Under the SPA, the investors were issued a (collectively) controlling interest in the Company consisting
of a total of 9,695,328 shares of common stock. These shares were issued in exchange for a total Purchase Price of $95,000. The Purchase
Price was used to settle and retire our notes payable, for certain compliance costs, and for general working capital. In conjunction
with the SPA, our formerly controlling stockholder, Biodynamic Molecular Technologies, LLC, exchanged its preferred stock for a total
of 269,315 shares of common stock. Upon issue, these shares were transferred to principal of Biodynamic Molecular Technologies, LLC,
Michael Alexander. This common stock position, which represented 2.5% of our post-closing common stock, was formerly non-dilutable for
a period of one (1) year. We acquired New You LLC following the passage of the United States Agricultural Improvement Act of 2018, commonly
known as the “Farm Bill,” which contained a permanent declassification of cannabidiol (CBD) as a controlled substance under
federal law. As a result of that transaction, we own and operate the CBD brand New You LLC which now represents our focus and all our
revenues.
On
March 8, 2019, pursuant to stockholder consent, our Board of Directors authorized an amendment (the “Amendment”) to our Certificate
of Incorporation, as amended, to (i) change the name of the Company from The Radiant Creations Group, Inc. to New You, Inc. and (ii)
effect a reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock, par value $0.00001, on a 1 for 50 basis (the “Reverse
Stock Split”). We filed the Amendment with the Nevada Secretary of State reflecting the name change on March 27, 2019. On April
29, 2019, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. notified us that the Name Change and Reverse
Stock Split would take effect on April 30, 2019 (the “Effective Date”). On the Effective Date, each holder of common stock
received 1 share of our common stock for each 50 shares of our common stock they owned immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split.
We did not issue fractional shares in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Fractional shares were rounded up to the nearest whole
share. In addition, on the Effective Date the Company’s trading symbol changed to “RCGPD” for a period of 20 business
days, after which the “D” was removed from the Company’s trading symbol and began trading under new trading symbol
“NWYU.” Unless otherwise indicated, the information in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements gives
effect to the 1-for-50 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.00001 per share and name change from The
Radiant Creations Group, Inc. to New You, Inc., effected on April 30, 2019.
New
You, Inc. through its wholly owned subsidiary, New You LLC, markets and sells its products through a multi-level marketing and direct
sales opportunity afforded to independent business owners called “Brand Partners.” Commissions are earned on product sales
to Brand Partners and their customers at a rate of 10% for every transaction, plus a specified spread on recurring sales. Brand Partners
earn a 5% commission on sales by other team members at lower levels up to nine level below the Brand Partner. Brand Partners can earn
an additional bonus for customer sales and team sales. The team bonus is $400 for each time the team bonus volume reaches a certain amount
in a 30-day period. Brand Partners can also earn an initial bonus of 20% of the transaction value for qualifying Brand Partners in the
Brand Partner’s first 30 days. There is a risk that Brand Partners may find it difficult to sell in a network marketing environment.
Brand Partners may also find it difficult to sell CBD related products due to the uncertainty surrounding FDA regulations of CBD and
hemp related products. Lastly, public perception of CBD products may be negative, as such products are derived from the Hemp plant. The
Company does not hold any patents or trademarks and, as a result, may be vulnerable to competition from other companies offering very
similar products and product brands The Company purchases inventory from Carlsbad Naturals, LLC. Carlsbad Naturals, LLC is a principal
stockholder of New You, Inc., and is owned by a principal stockholder of New You, Inc. As a result, we are dependent on a related party
for product inventory and do not have a broad base of unaffiliated suppliers.
On
May 3, 2021, New You, Inc. signed a definitive agreement (the, “Agreement”) with ST Brands, Inc. (“ST Brands”)
a Wyoming incorporated company established in 2020. ( New You, Inc. (Form: 8-K, Received: 05/07/2021 17:14:39) (otcmarkets.com)) Under
the terms of the Agreement Raymond Grimm will remain with the Company and continue to act as Chief Executive Officer. New You, LLC will
continue to market of unique and proprietary cannabidiol (“CBD”) products, which include CBD beverage enhancers that can
be added to any beverage, CBD infused coffee, and CBD oil tinctures.
ST
Brands is a holding company of branded assets that create, develop, market, and sell unique and proprietary cannabidiol (“CBD”)
products to various segments of the global consumer market. ST
Brands products are sold through a number of channels, including wholesale to retailers, online direct-to-consumer, and white labeling
for branded resellers . On May 17, 2021, our wholly-owned subsidiary ST Brands, Inc. (“STB”)
entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Infinite Product Company, LLC, a Colorado limited
liability company (“Infinite”). Under the Agreement, STB agreed to acquire 49% of the membership interests in Infinite, with
an option to acquire the additional 51% of the membership interests in Infinite upon the fulfillment of certain conditions.

conditions of the Agreement with ST Brands, additional acquisitions could result in a change of control of the Company.
Our
net losses for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 were ($5,046,711) and ($1,692,298), respectively. The Company will need to

Risk
Factors
An
investment in our shares involves a high degree of risk and many uncertainties. You should carefully consider the specific factors listed
below, together with the cautionary statement that follows this section and the other information included in this Offering Circular,
before purchasing our shares in this offering. If one or more of the possibilities described as risks below actually occur, our operating
results and financial condition would likely suffer and the trading price, if any, of our shares could fall, causing you to lose some
or all your investment. The following is a description of what we consider the key challenges and material risks to our business and
an investment in our securities.
We
have a limited operating history, which may make it difficult for investors to predict future performance based on current operations.
We
have a limited operating history upon which investors may base an evaluation of our potential future performance. In particular, we have
not proven that the Company’s business model will work. As a result, there can be no assurance that we will be able to develop
or maintain consistent revenue sources, or that our operations will be profitable and/or generate positive cash flows.
Any
forecasts we make about our operations may prove to be inaccurate. We must, among other things, determine appropriate risks, rewards,
and level of investment in our products, respond to economic and market variables outside of our control, respond to competitive developments
and continue to attract, retain, and motivate qualified employees. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in meeting these
challenges and addressing such risks and the failure to do so could have a materially adverse effect on our business, results of operations,
and financial condition. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by
companies in the early stage of development. As a result of these risks, challenges, and uncertainties, the value of your investment
could be significantly reduced or completely lost.
We
have incurred significant losses in prior periods, and losses in the future could cause the quoted price of our Common Stock to decline
or have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, our ability to pay our debts as they become due, and on our cash flows.
We
have incurred significant losses in prior periods. For the year ended December 31, 2020, we incurred a net loss of $5,046,711, of which
$2,787,568 was related to non-cash stock-based compensation and had an accumulated deficit of $7,167,015. For the year ended December
31, 2019, we incurred a net loss of $1,692,298 and, as of that date, we had an accumulated deficit of $2,120,304. For the six months
ended June 30, 2021, we incurred a net loss of $11,768,620 and, as of that date, we had an accumulated deficit of $18,935,636. Any losses
in the future could cause the quoted price of our Common
Stock to decline or have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, our ability to pay our debts as they become due, and on
our cash flows.
The
Company has raised capital through the issuance of convertible promissory notes that could have a dilutive effect on the stock and represent
current debt.
We
have chosen to issue convertible promissory notes to a number of parties that have provided funds to the Company in order for us to maintain
our operations. The table below summarizes the notes that have been issued, their maturity date and the dilutive effect each would have
on the Company. Since the maturity date of each of these notes is less than 365 days from this Offering, each is a current short-term
liability of Company:

We
will likely need additional capital to sustain our operations and will likely need to seek further financing, which we may not be able
to obtain on acceptable terms or at all. If we fail to raise additional capital as needed, our ability to implement our business model
and strategy could be compromised.
We
have limited capital resources and operations. To date, our operations have been funded entirely from the proceeds of debt and equity
financings. We expect to require substantial additional capital in the near future to expand our products and establish our targeted
levels of commercial production. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on terms acceptable to us, or at all.
Even
if we obtain financing for our near-term operations, we expect that we will require additional capital thereafter. Our capital needs
will depend on numerous factors including: (i) our profitability; (ii) the release of competitive products by our competition; (iii)
the level of our investment in research and development; and (iv) the amount of our capital expenditures, including acquisitions. We
cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain capital in the future to meet our needs.
If
we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership held by our existing
stockholders will be reduced and our stockholders may experience significant dilution. In addition, new securities may contain rights,
preferences or privileges that are senior to those of our Common Stock. If we raise additional capital by incurring debt, this will result
in increased interest expense. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of securities, market fluctuations in the price of our
shares of Common Stock could limit our ability to obtain equity financing.
We
cannot give you any assurance that any additional financing will be available to us, or if available, will be on terms favorable to us.
If we are unable to raise capital when needed, our business, financial condition, and
results of operations would be materially adversely affected, and we could be forced to reduce or discontinue our operations.
We
face intense competition and many of our competitors have greater resources that may enable them to compete more effectively.
The
industries in which we operate in general are subject to intense and increasing competition. Some of our competitors may have greater
capital resources, facilities, and diversity of products, which may enable them to compete more effectively in this market. Our competitors
may devote their resources to developing and marketing products that will directly compete with our products. Due to this competition,
there is no assurance that we will not encounter difficulties in obtaining revenues and market share or in the positioning of our products.
There are no assurances that competition in our respective
industries will not lead to reduced prices for our products. If we are unable to successfully compete with existing companies and new
entrants to the market this will have a negative impact on our business and financial condition.
If
we fail to protect our intellectual property, our business could be adversely affected.
Our
viability will depend, in part, on our ability to maintain the proprietary aspects of our products to distinguish our products from our
competitors’ products. While we do have and intend to have trademarks and/or patents on some of our products we still must rely
on, trade secrets and confidentiality provisions to protect the unique aspects of our both our own and our supplier’s products.
Competitors
may harm our sales by designing products that mirror the capabilities of our products or technology without infringing on our or our
vendor’s intellectual property rights. If we or our vendors do not obtain sufficient protection for their intellectual property,
or if we are unable to effectively enforce their intellectual property rights, our competitiveness could be impaired, which would limit
our growth and future revenue.
Although
we believe that our technology does not and will not infringe upon the patents or violate the proprietary rights of others, it is possible
such infringement or violation has occurred or may occur, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
We
are not aware of any infringement by us of any person’s or entity’s intellectual property rights. In the event that products
we sell are deemed to infringe upon the patents or proprietary rights of others, we could be required to modify our products, or obtain
a license for the manufacture and/or sale of such products, or cease selling such products. In such event, there can be no assurance
that we would be able to do so in a timely manner, upon acceptable terms and conditions, or at all, and the failure to do any of the
foregoing could have a material adverse effect upon our business.
There
can be no assurance that we will have the financial or other resources necessary to enforce or defend a patent infringement or proprietary
rights violation action. If our products or proposed products are deemed to infringe or likely to infringe upon the patents or proprietary
rights of others, we could be subject to injunctive relief and, under certain circumstances, become liable for damages, which could also
have a material adverse effect on our business and our financial condition.
Our
trade secrets may be difficult to protect.
Our
success depends upon the skills, knowledge, and experience of our scientific and technical personnel, our consultants and advisors, as
well as our licensors and contractors. Because we operate in several highly competitive industries, we rely in part on trade secrets
to protect our proprietary technology and processes. However, trade secrets are difficult to protect. We enter into confidentiality or
non-disclosure agreements with our corporate partners, employees, consultants, outside scientific collaborators, developers, and other
advisors. These agreements generally require that the receiving party keep confidential and not disclose to third parties confidential
information developed by the receiving party or made known to the receiving party by
us during the course of the receiving party’s relationship with us. These agreements also generally provide those inventions conceived
by the receiving party in the course of rendering services to us will be our exclusive property, and we enter into assignment agreements
to perfect our rights.
These
confidentiality, inventions, and assignment agreements may be breached and may not effectively assign intellectual property rights to
us. Our trade secrets also could be independently discovered by competitors, in which case we would not be able to prevent the use of
such trade secrets by our competitors. The enforcement of a claim alleging that a party illegally obtained and was using our trade secrets
could be difficult, expensive, and time consuming and the outcome would be unpredictable. In addition, courts outside the United States
may be less willing to protect trade secrets. The failure to obtain or maintain meaningful trade secret protection could adversely affect
our competitive position.
Our
business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows have been, and may in the future be, negatively impacted by challenging
global economic conditions.
The
recent global economic slowdown has caused disruptions and extreme volatility in global financial markets, increased rates of default
and bankruptcy, and declining consumer and business confidence, which has led to decreased levels of consumer spending. These macroeconomic
developments have and could continue to negatively impact our business, which depends on the general economic environment and levels
of consumer spending. As a result, we may not be able to maintain our existing customers or attract new customers, or we may be forced
to reduce the price of our products. We are unable to predict the likelihood of the occurrence, duration or severity of such disruptions
in the credit and financial markets and adverse global economic conditions. Any general or market-specific economic downturn could have
a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
Our
future success depends on our key executive officers and our ability to attract, retain, and motivate qualified personnel.
Our
future success largely depends upon the continued services of our executive officers and management team, especially our President and
Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Ray Grimm Jr., and John Driscoll, our Chief Financial Officer. If one or more of our executive officers
are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, we may not be able to replace them readily, if at all. Additionally,
we may incur additional expenses to recruit and retain new executive officers. If any of our executive officers joins a competitor or
forms a competing company, we may lose some or all of our customers. Finally, we do not maintain “key person” life insurance
on any of our executive officers. Because of these factors, the loss of the services of any of these key persons could adversely affect
our business, financial condition, and results of operations, and thereby an investment in our Common Stock.
Our
continuing ability to attract and retain highly qualified personnel will also be critical to our success because we will need to hire
and retain additional personnel as our business grows. There can be no assurance that we will be able to attract or retain highly qualified
personnel. We face significant competition for skilled personnel in our industry. This competition may make it more difficult and expensive
to attract, hire, and retain qualified managers and employees. Because of these factors, we may not be able to effectively manage or
grow our business, which could adversely affect our financial condition or business. As a result, the value of your investment could
be significantly reduced or completely lost.
Federal
and State Government regulations may change how we do business
The
effect of existing or probable federal and state government regulations on our business is not known at this time. Due to the nature
of our business, it is anticipated that there may be increasing government regulation that may cause us to have to take serious corrective
actions or make changes to the business plan. Federal and State government agencies have not yet put Hemp and CBD regulations into effect,
these proceedings over time should result in revisions or decisions providing even greater legal certainty for CBD sellers.
CBD
related products have not established legality within the FDA
The
FDA has deemed marketing food to which CBD has been added, or labeling CBD as a dietary supplement, to be impermissible. The FDA is continuing
to assess potential pathways available for various types of CBD products to be lawfully marketed. The FDA has summarized its current
policies regarding CBD products at:
https://www.fda.gov/news-events/public-health-focus/fda-regulation-cannabis-and-cannabis-derived-products-including-cannabidiol-cbd.
As
discussed in Item 14 of its summary, the FDA has thus far limited its enforcement actions regarding CBD sellers to actions involving
the impermissible use of medical or therapeutic claims for CBD products. Should the FDA change its enforcement policies regarding CBD
products and begin broader enforcement actions against all sellers of products containing CBD, we would be forced to take serious corrective
actions or make drastic changes to our business plan, and our business may fail. In addition, we cannot predict the form and content
of future FDA regulations regarding CBD. Should the FDA adopt a legal framework for the marketing of CBD products, the requirements of
its new regulations may be costly or burdensome such that we will lack the financial resources to become compliant with them.
Network
marketing guidelines set by the Federal Trade Commission could impact how we do business.
Since
part of our Company operates as a network marketing company, we have to follow specific guidelines set by the Federal Trade Commission.
The Company and its Brand Partners must follow all of these guidelines. Should the Company or Brand Partners deviate from these guidelines,
the company could be fined and would have to take corrective actions. One of the FTC’s primary concerns with regard to “multi-level
marketing” (“MLM”) or “network marketing” businesses is the potential for the compensation structure of
an MLM business to be unfair or deceptive within the meaning of Section 5 of the FTC Act. At the most basic level, FTC policy requires
that an MLM pay compensation that is based on actual sales to real customers, rather than based on mere wholesale purchases or other
payments by its participants. In evaluating MLM practices, the FTC focuses on how the structure as a whole operates in practice, and
considers factors including marketing representations, participant experiences, the compensation plan, and the incentives that the compensation
structure creates. The assessment of an MLM’s compensation structure is a fact-specific determination that the FTC makes after
careful investigation. In any such investigation, the FTC staff is likely to consider whether features of the MLM’s compensation
structure incentivize or encourage participants to purchase product for reasons other than satisfying their own personal demand or actual
consumer demand in the marketplace. Second, the FTC staff is likely to consider information bearing on whether particular wholesale purchases
by business opportunity participants were made to satisfy personal demand. In addition, FTC focuses on whether an MLM’s representations
regarding is business opportunity are deceptive. Although we believe the compensation structure for our Brand Partners and the other
features of our network marketing program are in compliance with current FTC guidelines, any material change to those guidelines could
force us to restructure our Brand Partners program or otherwise adversely affect our business.
We
may not be able to effectively manage our growth or improve our operational, financial, and management information systems, which would
impair our results of operations.
In
the near term, we intend to expand the scope of our operations activities significantly. If we are successful in executing our business
plan, we will experience growth in our business that could place a significant strain on our business operations, finances, management
and other resources. The factors that may place strain on our resources include, but are not limited to, the following:
|
●
|
The
need for continued development of our financial and information management systems;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
The
need to manage strategic relationships and agreements with manufacturers, customers and partners;
|
|
●
|
Difficulties
in hiring and retaining skilled management, technical, and other personnel necessary to support and manage our business;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Legal,
accounting, audit, investment banking and consulting fees related to our acquisition strategy.
|
Additionally,
our strategy envisions a period of rapid growth that may impose a significant burden on our administrative and operational resources.
Our ability to effectively manage growth will require us to substantially expand the capabilities of our administrative and operational
resources and to attract, train, manage, and retain qualified management and other personnel. There can be no assurance that we will
be successful in recruiting and retaining new employees or retaining existing employees. We cannot provide assurances that our management
will be able to manage this growth effectively. Our failure to successfully manage growth could result in our sales not increasing commensurately
with capital investments or otherwise materially adversely affecting our business, financial condition, or results of operations.
If
we are unable to continually innovate and increase efficiencies, our ability to attract new customers may be adversely affected.
In
the area of innovation, we must be able to develop new technologies and products that appeal to our customers. This depends, in part,
on the technological and creative skills of our personnel. We may not be successful in the development, introduction, marketing, and
sourcing of new technologies or innovations, that satisfy customer needs, achieve market acceptance, or generate satisfactory financial
returns.
Our
business is subject to risks arising from epidemic diseases, such as the recent global outbreak of the COVID-19 coronavirus.
An
epidemic or pandemic disease outbreak, including the recent COVID-19 outbreak, could cause significant disruption to our business operations
or the operations of our third-party manufacturers upon whom we rely. The COVID-19 outbreak and mitigation measures also have had and
may continue to have an adverse impact on global economic conditions which could have an adverse effect on our business and financial
condition, including impairing our ability to raise capital when needed.
Any
disruption of our suppliers and their contract manufacturers or our customers would likely impact our sales and operating results. Moreover,
our operations could be negatively affected if employees are quarantined as the result of exposure to a contagious illness. The outbreak
and any preventative or protective actions that governments or we may take in respect of this coronavirus may result in a period of business
disruption, reduced customer traffic, and reduced operations.
The
Company does not currently maintain, nor does it intend to get insurance policies for indemnification against business interruption caused
by pandemic.
Litigation
may adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
From
time to time in the normal course of our business operations, we may become subject to litigation that may result in liability material
to our financial statements as a whole or may negatively affect our operating results if changes to our business operations are required.
The cost to defend such litigation may be significant and may require a diversion of our resources. There also may be adverse publicity
associated with litigation that could negatively affect customer perception of our business, regardless of whether the allegations are
valid or whether we are ultimately found liable. Insurance may not be available at all or in sufficient amounts to cover any liabilities
with respect to these or other matters. A judgment or other liability in excess of our insurance coverage for any claims could adversely
affect our business and the results of our operations.
Our
officers and directors have significant control over stockholder matters and the minority stockholders will have little or no control
over our affairs.
Our
officers and directors currently own approximately 40.67% of our outstanding Common Stock, and thus significant control over stockholder
matters, such as election of directors, amendments to the Articles of Incorporation, and approval of significant corporate transactions.
As a result, our minority stockholders will have little or no control over its affairs.
Our
internal controls and accounting methods may require modification.
We
continue to review and develop controls and procedures sufficient to accurately report our financial performance on a timely basis. If
we do not develop and implement effective controls and procedures, we may not be able to report our financial performance on a timely
basis and our business and stock price would be adversely affected.
If
we fail to implement and maintain proper and effective internal controls and disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Section 404
of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, our ability to produce accurate and timely financial statements and public reports could be impaired,
which could adversely affect our operating results, our ability to operate our business, and investors’ views of us.
The
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that we report annually on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Among
other things, we must perform systems and processes evaluation and testing. We must also conduct an assessment of our internal controls
to allow management to report on our assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act. We are required to provide management’s assessment of internal controls in conjunction with the filing our Annual Report on
Form 10-K. The failure to implement and maintain proper and effective internal controls and disclosure controls could result in material
weaknesses in our financial reporting such as errors in our financial statements and in the accompanying footnote disclosures that could
require restatements. Investors may lose confidence in our reported financial information and disclosure, which could negatively impact
our stock price.
We
do not expect that our internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter
how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will
be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls
must be considered relative to their costs. Controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two
or more people, or by management override of the controls. Over time, controls may become inadequate because changes in conditions or
deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may occur. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective
control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
The
Company has the following material weaknesses:
The
Company lacks an effective control environment since there are insufficient personnel to exercise appropriate oversight of accounting
judgments and estimates.
Due
to limited accounting and financial reporting resources, the Company lacks formal processes to identify, update, and assess risks to
the Company’s financial reporting.
Due
to limited accounting and financial reporting resources, the Company has not implemented significant monitoring controls.
Due
to limited accounting and financial reporting resources, authorization, approval, and review controls over the Company’s financial
statements and accounting records have not been implemented or have not been applied consistently. This includes controls over the identification,
approval, and disclosure of related party transactions. In certain cases, formal documentation does not exist regarding the design of
controls, evidence of implementation of controls, or evidence of occurrence of certain transactions. In addition, certain of the Company’s
processes lack segregation of duties.
Our
insurance coverage may be inadequate to cover all significant risk exposures.
Like
all sellers of products for human consumption, we cannot eliminate the risk that our products may be subject to contamination during
the manufacturing or distribution process, causing illness or injury to the consumer. While we intend to maintain insurance for certain
risks, the amount of our insurance coverage may not be adequate to cover all claims or liabilities, and we may be forced to bear substantial
costs resulting from risks and uncertainties of our business. It is also not possible to obtain insurance to protect against all operational
risks and liabilities. The failure to obtain adequate insurance coverage on terms favorable to us, or at all, could have a material adverse
effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. We do not have any business interruption insurance. Any business
disruption or natural disaster could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources.
Our
failure to maintain and expand our distributor relationships could adversely affect our business.
We
distribute our products through independent distributors, and we depend upon them directly for all of our sales in most of our markets.
Accordingly, our success depends in significant part upon our ability to attract, retain and motivate a large base of distributors. Our
direct selling organization is headed by a relatively small number of key distributors. The loss of a significant number of distributors,
especially key distributors, could materially and adversely affect sales of our products and could impair our ability to attract new
distributors. Moreover, the replacement of distributors could be difficult because, in our efforts to attract and retain distributors,
we compete with other direct selling organizations, including but not limited to those in the personal care, cosmetic product and nutritional
supplement industries. Our distributors may terminate their services with us at any time.
The
number of active distributors or their productivity may not increase and could decline in the future. We cannot accurately predict any
fluctuation in the number and productivity of distributors. Operating results could be adversely affected if our existing and new business
opportunities and products do not generate sufficient economic incentive or interest to retain existing distributors and to attract new
distributors.
The
number and productivity of our distributors could be harmed by several factors, including:
|
●
|
adverse
publicity or negative perceptions regarding us, our products, our method of distribution or our competitors;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
lack
of interest in, or the technical failure of, existing or new products;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
lack
of interest in our existing compensation plan for distributors or in enhancements or other changes to that compensation plan;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
our
actions to enforce our policies and procedures;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
regulatory
actions or charges or private actions against us or others in our industry;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
general
economic and business conditions;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
changes
in management or the loss of one or more key distributor leaders;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
entry
of new competitors, or new products or compensation plan enhancements by existing competitors, in our markets; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
potential
saturation or maturity levels in a given country or market which could negatively impact our ability to attract and retain distributors
in such market.
|
An
increase in the amount of compensation paid to distributors would reduce profitability.
A
significant expense is the payment of compensation to our MLM distributors, which represented approximately 28% of net sales during 2020.
We compensate our MLM distributors by paying commissions, bonuses, and certain awards and prizes. Factors impacting the overall commission
payout include the growth and depth of the MLM distributor network, the MLM distributor retention rate, the level of promotions, local
promotional programs and business development agreements. Any increase in compensation payments to distributors as a percentage of net
sales will reduce our profitability.
Failure
of new products to gain distributor and market acceptance could harm our business.
An
important component of our business is our ability to develop new products that create enthusiasm among our third-party distributors
and our MLM distributor force. If we fail to introduce new products on a timely basis, our distributor productivity could be harmed.
In addition, if any new products fail to gain market acceptance, are restricted by regulatory requirements, or have quality problems,
this would harm our results of operations. Factors that could affect our ability to continue to introduce new products include, among
others, limited capital and human resources, government regulations, proprietary protections of competitors that may limit our ability
to offer comparable products and any failure to anticipate changes in consumer tastes and buying preferences.
Although
our distributors are independent contractors, improper distributor actions that violate laws or regulations could harm our business.
All
of our distributors are currently independent contractors and, accordingly, we are not in a position to directly provide the same direction,
motivation and oversight as we would if distributors were our own employees. As a result, there can be no assurance that our distributors
will participate in our marketing strategies or plans, accept our introduction of new products, or comply with our distributor policies
and procedures. Extensive federal, state and local laws regulate our business, our products and our network marketing program. Given
the size and diversity of our distributor force, we experience problems with distributors from time to time. Distributors often desire
to enter a market, before we have received approval to do business, to gain an advantage in the marketplace. Improper distributor activity
in new geographic markets could result in adverse publicity and can be particularly harmful to our ability to ultimately enter these
markets. Violations by our distributors of applicable law or of our policies and procedures in dealing with customers could reflect negatively
on our products and operations and harm our business reputation. In addition, it is possible that a court could hold us civilly or criminally
accountable based on vicarious liability because of the actions of our distributors. If any of these events occur, our business, financial
condition, or results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
Because
we do not have an audit or compensation committee, stockholders will have to rely on our officers and directors, most of whom are not
independent, to perform these functions.
Because
we do not have an audit or compensation committee, stockholders will have to rely on our officers and directors, most of whom are not
independent, to perform these functions. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our officers and directors have the
authority to determine issues concerning management compensation, nominations, and audit issues that may affect management decisions.
RISKS
RELATED TO AN INVESTMENT IN OUR SECURITIES
We
expect to experience volatility in the price of our Common Stock, which could negatively affect stockholders’ investments.
The
trading price of our Common Stock may be highly volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some
of which are beyond our control. The stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been
unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies with securities traded in those markets. Broad market and industry
factors may seriously affect the market price of companies’ stock, including ours, regardless of actual operating performance.
All of these factors could adversely affect your ability to sell your shares of Common
Stock
or, if you are able to sell your shares, to sell your shares at a price that you determine to be fair or favorable.
The
relative lack of public company experience of our management team could adversely impact our ability to comply with the reporting requirements
of U.S. securities laws.
Our
management team lacks public company experience, which could impair our ability to comply with legal and regulatory requirements such
as those imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Our senior management has little experience in managing a publicly traded company.
Such responsibilities include complying with federal securities laws and making required disclosures on a timely basis. Our senior management
may not be able to implement programs and policies in an effective and timely manner that adequately respond to such increased legal,
regulatory compliance, and reporting requirements, including the establishing and maintaining of internal controls over financial reporting.
Any such deficiencies, weaknesses, or lack of compliance could have a materially adverse effect on our ability to comply with the reporting
requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which is necessary to maintain our
public company status. If we were to fail to fulfill those obligations, our ability to continue as a U.S. public company would be in
jeopardy, we could be subject to the imposition of fines and penalties and our management would have to divert resources from attending
to our business plan.
Our
Common Stock is categorized as “penny stock,” which may make it more difficult for investors to sell their shares of Common
Stock due to suitability requirements.
Our
Common Stock is categorized as “penny stock”. The SEC has adopted Rule 15g-9 which generally defines “penny stock”
to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per
share, subject to certain exceptions. The price of our Common Stock is significantly less than $5.00 per share and is therefore considered
“penny stock.” This designation imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other
than established customers and accredited investors. The penny stock
rules require a broker-dealer buying our securities to disclose certain information concerning the transaction, obtain a written agreement
from the purchaser, and determine that the purchaser is reasonably suitable to purchase the securities given the increased risks generally
inherent in penny stocks. These rules may restrict the ability and/or willingness of brokers or dealers to buy or sell our Common Stock,
either directly or on behalf of their clients, may discourage potential stockholders from purchasing our Common Stock, or may adversely
affect the ability of stockholders to sell their shares.
Financial
Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and
sell our Common Stock, which could depress the price of our Common Stock.
In
addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require a broker-dealer to have reasonable
grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer before recommending an investment to a customer. Prior to recommending
speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information
about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives, and other information. Under interpretations of these
rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some
customers. Thus, the FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our Common Stock,
which may limit your ability to buy and sell our shares of Common Stock, have an adverse effect on the market for our shares of Common
Stock, and thereby depress our price per share of Common Stock.
The
elimination of monetary liability against our directors, officers, and employees under Nevada law and the existence of indemnification
rights for our obligations to our directors, officers, and employees may result in substantial expenditures by us and may discourage
lawsuits against our directors, officers, and employees.
Our
Articles of Incorporation contain a provision permitting us to eliminate the personal liability of our directors to us and our stockholders
for damages for the breach of a fiduciary duty as a director or officer to the extent provided by Nevada law. We may also have contractual
indemnification obligations under any future employment agreements with our officers. The foregoing indemnification obligations could
result in us incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against directors and officers, which
we may be unable to recoup. These provisions and the resulting costs may also discourage us from bringing a lawsuit against directors
and officers for breaches of their fiduciary duties and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by our stockholders
against our directors and officers even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders.
We
may issue additional shares of Common Stock or preferred stock in the future, which could cause significant dilution to all stockholders.
Our
Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 1.4 billion shares of Common Stock and 100 million shares of preferred stock,
with a par value of $0.00001 per share. As of December 31, 2020, we had 39,523,051 shares of Common Stock, 0 shares of Series A Preferred
Stock and 0 shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding; however, subsequently we have issued additional shares of preferred stock
in in connection with a financing and acquisition. Such issuances may not require the approval of our stockholders. In addition, certain
of our outstanding rights to purchase additional shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into our Common Stock are subject to
full-ratchet anti-dilution protection, which could result in the right to purchase significantly more shares of Common Stock being issued
or a reduction in the purchase price for any such shares or both.
Any
issuance of additional shares of our Common Stock, or equity securities convertible into our Common Stock, including but not limited
to, preferred stock, warrants, and options, will dilute the percentage ownership interest of all stockholders, may dilute the book value
per share of our Common Stock, and may negatively impact the market price of our Common Stock.
Anti-takeover
effects of certain provisions of Nevada state law hinder a potential takeover of us.
Nevada
has a business combination law which prohibits certain business combinations between Nevada corporations and “interested stockholders”
for three years after an “interested stockholder” first becomes an “interested stockholder,” unless the corporation’s
board of directors approves the combination in advance. For purposes of Nevada law, an “interested stockholder” is any person
who is (i) the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the outstanding voting shares
of the corporation, or (ii) an affiliate or associate of the corporation and at any time within the three previous years was the beneficial
owner, directly or indirectly, of ten percent or more of the voting power of the then-outstanding shares of the corporation. The definition
of the term “business combination” is sufficiently broad to cover virtually any kind of transaction that would allow a potential
acquiror to use the corporation’s assets to finance the acquisition or otherwise to benefit its own interests rather than the interests
of the corporation and its other stockholders.
The
effect of Nevada’s business combination law is to potentially discourage parties interested in taking control of us from doing
so if it cannot obtain the approval of our Board. Both of these provisions could limit the price investors would be willing to pay in
the future for shares of our Common Stock.
Because
we do not intend to pay any cash dividends on our Common Stock, our stockholders will not be able to receive a return on their shares
unless they sell them.
We
intend to retain any future earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business. We do not anticipate paying any cash dividends
on our Common Stock in the foreseeable future. Declaring and paying future dividends, if any, will be determined by our Board, based
upon earnings, financial condition, capital resources, capital requirements, restrictions in our Articles of Incorporation, contractual
restrictions, and such other factors as our Board deems relevant. Unless we pay dividends, our stockholders will not be able to receive
a return on their shares unless they sell them. There is no assurance that stockholders will be able to sell shares when desired.
Risks
Related to This Offering
Due
to the lack of a current public market for our common stock, investors may have difficulty in selling stock they purchase.
Prior
to this offering, a public trading market existed for our securities. However, there can be no assurance that the public trading market
for our common stock will be sustained. Because the public market for our stock is limited, we may not be able to secure future equity
financing which would have a material adverse effect on our company. Furthermore, there can also be no assurance as to the depth or liquidity
of any market for the common stock or the prices at which holders may be able to sell the shares.
As
a result, investors could find it more difficult to trade, or to obtain accurate quotations of the market value of, the stock as compared
to securities that are traded on the NASDAQ trading market or on an exchange. Moreover, an investor may find it difficult to dispose
of any shares purchased hereunder. Investors may have difficulty in reselling their shares due to the lack of market or state Blue Sky
laws.
Our
common stock is currently quoted on the OTC Market, but due to limited volume investors should consider any secondary market for our
securities to be a limited one.
Investing
in our company is highly speculative and could result in the entire loss of your investment.
Purchasing
the offered shares is highly speculative and involves significant risk. The offered shares should not be purchased by any person who
cannot afford to lose their entire investment. Our business objectives are also speculative, and it is possible that we would be unable
to accomplish them. Our shareholders may be unable to realize a substantial or any return on their purchase of the offered shares and
may lose their entire investment. For this reason, each prospective purchaser of the offered shares should read this offering circular
and all of its exhibits carefully and consult with their attorney, business and/or investment advisor.
Investing
in our company may result in an immediate loss because buyers will pay more for our common stock than what the pro rata portion of the
assets are worth.
The
offering price and other terms and conditions regarding our shares have been arbitrarily determined and do not bear any relationship
to assets, earnings, book value or any other objective criteria of value. No investment banker, appraiser or other independent third
party has been consulted concerning the offering price for the shares or the fairness of the offering price used for the shares.
The
price per share as determined herein may be substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share of our common stock. Our
assets do not substantiate a share price of $1.00. This premium in share price applies to the terms of this offering. The offering price
will change for the duration of the offering to reflect the preceding 7-day average closing price of the OTCQB quoted shares.
We
have 1,400,000,000 authorized shares of common stock, of which 49,954,976 shares are currently issued and outstanding and 449,954,976
shares will be issued and outstanding after this offering terminates (assuming all shares have been sold at the price of $.10). Our management
could, with the consent of the existing shareholders, issue substantially more shares, causing a large dilution in the equity position
of our current shareholders.
We
may, in the future, issue additional shares of common stock, which would reduce investors’ percent of ownership and may dilute
our share value.
Our
articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of 1,400,000,000 shares of common stock. Upon completion of this offering, we may have
up to 449,954,976 shares of common stock issued and outstanding if all shares offered are sold. Accordingly, we may issue up to an additional
950,045,024 shares of common stock after this offering. The future issuance of common stock may result in substantial dilution in the
percentage of our common stock held by our then existing shareholders. We may value any common stock issued in the future on an arbitrary
basis. The issuance of common stock for future services or acquisitions or other corporate actions may have the effect of diluting the
value of the shares held by our investors and might have an adverse effect on any trading market for our common stock. In addition, the
Company has reserved 59,908,253 shares of common stock for conversion based on the promissory notes that have been issued by the Company.
Preferred
Shareholders have inordinate voting rights as compared to Common Shareholders.
At
present there is 1 preferred shareholder. In the Company Articles there are two classes of Preferred Shareholders with the different
conversion rights. The series of Preferred shares granted to ST Brands are granted one hundred (100) votes for each share and may be
converted into one hundred (100) common shares. Based on the Agreement if all of the Preferred shares are issued to ST Brands, based
on certain revenue milestones an additional 450,000,000 shares of common stock could be issued. This conversion and issuance would result
in significant dilution and a possible change of control of the Company. A second series of Preferred shares has been authorized but
not issued. Preferred shares are authorized for the use by the Board to facilitate transactions and potentially issue to any significant
investors (individuals or organizations) willing to invest who are interested in our platform and to give those investors preferential
treatment in the event of the liquidation of the company and to potentially be used to reward management for successful implementation
of our business plan. The Management and Board of Directors may also elect to use Preferred Shares to maintain control of the Company
and its operations.
As
we do not have an escrow or trust account with the subscriptions for investors, if we file for or are forced into bankruptcy protection,
investors will lose their entire investment.
Invested
funds for this offering will not be placed in an escrow or trust account and if we file for bankruptcy protection or a petition for involuntary
bankruptcy is filed by creditors against us, your funds will become part of the bankruptcy estate and administered according to the bankruptcy
laws. As such, you will lose your investment and your funds will be used to pay creditors.
We
do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future, so there will be less ways in which you can make a gain on any investment
in us.
We
have never paid dividends and do not intend to pay any dividends for the foreseeable future. To the extent that we may require additional
funding currently not provided for in our financing plan, our funding sources may prohibit the declaration of dividends. Because we do
not intend to pay dividends, any gain on your investment will need to result from an appreciation in the price of our common stock. There
will therefore be fewer ways in which you are able to make a gain on your investment.
In
the event that our shares are traded, they may trade under $5.00 per share, and thus will be considered a penny stock. Trading penny
stocks has many restrictions and these restrictions could severely affect the price and liquidity of our shares.
In
the event that our shares trade below $5.00 per share, our stock would be known as a “penny stock”, which is subject to various
regulations involving disclosures to be given to you prior to the purchase of any penny stock. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
(the “SEC”) has adopted regulations which generally define a “penny stock” to be any equity security that has
a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Depending on market fluctuations, our common stock could
be considered to be a “penny stock”. A penny stock is subject to rules that impose additional sales practice requirements
on broker/dealers who sell these securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. For transactions covered
by these rules, the broker/dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of these securities. In addition, he
must receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. He must also provide certain written disclosures
to the purchaser. Consequently, the “penny stock” rules may restrict the ability of broker/dealers to sell our securities
and may negatively affect the ability of holders of shares of our common stock to resell them. These disclosures require you to acknowledge
that you understand the risks associated with buying penny stocks and that you can absorb the loss of your entire investment. Penny stocks
are low priced securities that do not have a very high trading volume. Consequently, the price of the stock is often volatile, and you
may not be able to buy or sell the stock when you want to.
Financial
Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) sales practice requirements may also limit your ability to buy and sell our common
stock, which could depress the price of our shares.
FINRA
rules require broker-dealers to have reasonable grounds for believing that an investment is suitable for a customer before recommending
that investment to the customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers
must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status and investment objectives,
among other things. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability such speculative low-priced
securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. Thus, FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend
that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our shares, have an adverse effect on the market
for our shares, and thereby depress our share price.
Status
as Not a Shell Company
The
Company it is not a “shell company” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, The Company
is a “start-up” company which the Commission explicitly differentiates in Footnote 172 to SEC Release No. 33-8869 from “shell”
companies covered under Rule 144(i)(1)(i) (the “Rule”). In adopting the definition of a shell company in SEC
Release No. 33- 8587 (the “Release”), the Commission stated that it intentionally did not define the term “nominal”
and it did not set a quantitative threshold of what constitutes a shell company. Indeed, under the Rule, the threshold for what is considered
“nominal” is, to a large degree, subjective and based upon facts and circumstances of each individual case.
The
Company is actively engaged in the implementation and deployment of its business plan. These activities include:
The
Company’s operations are more than just “nominal.” As the Commission points out in its Release, there are no established
quantitative thresholds to determine whether a company’s operations are in-fact “nominal”. Instead, the determination
is to be made on a case-by-case basis, with significant regards to a subjective analysis aimed at preventing serious problems from allowing
scheming promoters and affiliates to evade the definition of a “shell” company (as well as the intent of the Rule). As described
in Footnote 32 to the Release, the Commission expounds its rationale for declining to quantitatively define the term “nominal”
regarding a shell company.
It
is reasonably commonplace that development stage or “start-up” companies have limited assets and resources, as well as having
a going concern explanatory paragraph in the report of its independent registered public accounting firm. The Company is considering
all possible avenues to develop its business model. The Company believes that by being a public company this should increase its image
and credibility in the marketplace and provide possible sources of funding for its business.
The
Company’s management has been working at implementing the Company’s core business strategy, including, but not limited to,
and business development in anticipation of its progressing operations and the development of its business model. The Company’s
operations are more than “nominal” and that it does not fall within the class of companies for which the Commission was aiming
to prevent as referenced in Release Footnote 32.
Dilution
The
price of this offering is $0.10 per share. This price is significantly higher than the price paid by the Company’s
officers and directors and early investors.
An
early-stage company typically sells its shares (or grants options over its shares) to its founders and early employees at a very low
cash cost because they are, in effect, putting their “sweat equity” into the company. When the company seeks cash from outside
investors, the new investors typically pay a much larger sum for their shares than the founders or earlier investors, which means that
the cash value of the new investors stake is diluted because each share of the same type is worth the same amount, and the new investor
has paid more for the shares than earlier investors did for theirs.
We
intend to sell up to 400,000,000 shares of our Common Stock. We were initially capitalized by the sale of our Common Stock. The following
table sets forth the number of shares of Common Stock purchased from us, the total consideration paid and the price per share. The table
assumes all 400,000,000 shares of Common Stock will be sold.

PLAN
OF DISTRIBUTION
Our
common stock offered through this offering is being made by the Company through a direct offering. Our Common Stock may be sold or distributed
from time to time by the Company utilizing general solicitation through the internet, social media, and any other means of widespread
communication. The sale of our common stock offered by us through this offering may be effected by one or more of the following methods:
internet, social media, and any other means of widespread communication including but not limited to crowdfunding sites, ordinary brokers’
transactions;· transactions involving cross or block trades; through brokers, dealers, or underwriters who may act solely as agents;
in other ways not involving market makers or established business markets, including direct sales to purchasers or sales effected through
agents;· in privately negotiated transactions; or· any combination of the foregoing.
Our
offering will terminate upon the earliest of (i) such time as all the common stock has been sold pursuant to the Offering Statement or
(ii) 365 days from the qualified date of this amended offering circular unless extended by our Board of Directors for an additional 365
days. We may however, at any time and for any reason terminate the offering.
There
is no arrangement to address the possible effect of the offering on the price of the stock.
In
connection with the Company’s selling efforts in the offering, our officers and directors will not register as a broker-dealer
pursuant to Section 15 of the Exchange Act, but rather will rely upon the “safe harbor” provisions of SEC Rule 3a4-1, promulgated
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
Generally
speaking, Rule 3a4-1 provides an exemption from the broker-dealer registration requirements of the Exchange Act for persons associated
with an issuer that participate in an offering of the issuer’s securities. The Officers of the Company are not subject to any statutory
disqualification, as that term is defined in Section 3(a)(39) of the Exchange Act. the Officers will not be compensated in connection
with his participation in the offering by the payment of commissions or other remuneration based either directly or indirectly on transactions
in our securities. The Officers will not participate in selling an offering of securities for any issuer more than once every 12 months
other than in reliance on Exchange Act Rule 3a4-1(a)(4)(i) or (iii).
The
Company will receive the proceeds from the sale of up to 400,000,000 shares being offered less fees and expenses due to accountants,
auditors and attorneys, as well as any fees due to regulators, data providers, PR news services, the transfer agent or OTC Markets. The
Company’s shares will be sold to purchasers by the Officers of the Company. All shares sold under this offering circular will be
sold at a price of $0.10 per share.
The
Company will pay all expenses incidental to the registration of the shares (including registration pursuant to the securities laws of
certain states), which we expect to be no more than $100,000.

will be returned immediately by us to the subscriber, without interest but with a $100 deduction for processing fees. Subscriptions for
securities will be accepted or rejected with letter by mail, or by email with a delivery and read receipt within 48 hours after we receive

Investment
Limitations
Our
common stock is quoted on the OTCQB tier of the electronic over-the-counter marketplace operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc. under the
trading symbol “NWYU.” On October 1, 2021, the last reported sales price for our common stock was $0.10 per share.
Generally,
in the case of trading on the over-the-counter markets, no sale may be made to you in this offering if the aggregate purchase price you
pay is more than 10% of the greater of your annual income or net worth. Different rules apply to accredited investors and non-natural
persons. Before making any representation that your investment does not exceed applicable thresholds, we encourage you to review Rule
251(d)(2)(i)(C) of Regulation A. For general information on investing, we encourage you to refer to www.investor.gov.
Because
this is a Tier 2, Regulation A offering, most investors in the case of trading on the over-the-counter markets must comply with the 10%
limitation on investment in the offering. The only investor in this offering exempt from this limitation is an “accredited investor”
as defined under Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. If you meet one of the following tests you should qualify as an accredited
investor:
(i)
You are a natural person who has had individual income in excess of $200,000 in each of the two most recent years, or joint income with
your spouse in excess of $300,000 in each of these years, and have a reasonable expectation of reaching the same income level in the
current year;
(ii)
You are a natural person and your individual net worth, or joint net worth with your spouse, exceeds $1,000,000 at the time you purchase
shares of our common stock in the offering;

(iv)
You are an organization described in Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, a corporation,

with total assets in excess of $5,000,000;
(v)
You are a bank or a savings and loan association or other institution as defined in the Securities Act, a broker or dealer registered

a person who either alone or with his purchaser representative(s) (as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act) has
such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that he is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the prospective
investment, and you were not formed for the specific purpose of investing in the shares in this offering; or
(viii)
You are a plan established and maintained by a state, its political subdivisions, or any agency or instrumentality of a state or its
political subdivisions, for the benefit of its employees, if such plan has assets in excess of $5,000,000.
Blue
Sky Law Considerations
The
holders of our shares of common stock and persons who desire to purchase them in any trading market that might develop in the future
should be aware that there may be significant state law restrictions upon the ability of investors to resell our shares. Accordingly,
even though the shares of the Company are available for trading on the OTC Market, investors should consider any secondary market for
our securities to be a limited one.
USE
OF PROCEEDS
Our
offering is being made on a self-underwritten basis: no minimum number of shares must be sold in order for the offering to proceed. The
offering price per share is $0.10. The following table sets forth the uses of proceeds assuming the sale of 100%, 75%, 50%, and 25% of
the securities offered for sale by the Company based on a net price of $0.10. There is no assurance that we will raise the full
$40,000,000 as anticipated.

others.
Our
Target Market
As
of November 2020, cannabis is legal in 35 states and in DC for medical and/or recreational purposes—or both. The legal cannabis
industry is now growing exponentially. Industry studies indicate the market is likely to exceed an annual volume in excess of $30 Billion
in the next 4 years and upwards of $75 Billion by 2030. (Sources: Marijuana Business Daily 7th Annual Marijuana Factbook, Bank of America
analyst Christopher Carey, Cowen analyst Vivien Azur). Other forecasters project the North American legal cannabis market size should
reach $104.9 Billion by 2027. (Source: North America Legal Marijuana Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Product Type,
By Marijuana Type, By Medical Use, By Region And Segment Forecasts, 2020 - 2027 by Grand View Research).
In
early-adopter states like Colorado, Oregon, Washington, and California the industry is still dominated by small operators. These companies
face almost no competition yet from dominant national brands because of the strict regulatory environment and the complexity of legally
recruiting large capital investments. Companies with a scalable business model that access funding early have an opportunity to become
dominant market leaders in an expanding and maturing industry.
The
Company’s brands include:
New
You, Inc. - markets unique and proprietary cannabidiol (“CBD”) products, which include CBD beverage enhancers that can be
added to any beverage, CBD infused coffee, and CBD oil tinctures. New You markets and currently sells its products through a multi-level
marketing and direct sales opportunity afforded to independent business owners (“Brand Partners”).
Primus
Skin Care - develops products designed to combine anti-inflammatory benefits of CBD with different skin-enhancing properties of existing
high-quality ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, marshmallow root, immortelle oil. Primus relies on its strict quality standards and
unique formulations, to differentiate itself in the market and achieve market share.
Infinite
- A CBD manufacturer of isolate-based products such as oils, gummies, capsules, creams and men’s self-care products differentiated
by its use of nanoparticles to improve products performance. The company also produces and sells bulk nano products for use by third
parties. Infinite’s mission is to continually innovate improved health and wellness products for retail, wholesale and private
label customers.
The
Company is also developing a synthetic CBD-based sugar alternative intended for distribution throughout Europe as regulated by the Novel
Food Act.
In
addition to the organic growth the Company intends for its existing brand assets, the Company intends to grow through acquisition and
expand its platform internationally with acquisitions in Europe, Asia and South America.
The
Company intends to establish a global network of branded, self-service, “smart kiosks’’ that dispense ST Brands products,
including CBD-based edibles, vape cartridges, topicals and other such products. Vending machines are intended for placement in strategic
retail locations as grocery chains, big box retailers, and ancillary markets. We market and sell our products through a multi-level marketing
and direct sales opportunity afforded to independent business owners called “Brand Partners”. Commissions are earned on product
sales to Brand Partners and their customers at a rate of 10% for every transaction, plus a specified spread on recurring sales. Brand
Partners earn a 5% commission on sales by other team members at lower levels
up to nine level below the Brand Partner. Brand Partners can earn an additional bonus for customer sales and team sales. The team bonus
is $400 for each and every time the team bonus volume reaches a certain amount in a 30-day period. Brand Partners can also earn an initial
bonus of 20% of the transaction value for qualifying Brand Partners in the Brand Partner’s first 30 days.
As
of December 2020, the New You, LLC subsidiary had 5,133 Brand Partners, of which 139 joined in the fourth quarter of 2020, 69 joined
in the third quarter of 2020, 206 joined in the second quarter of 2020, 285 joined in the first quarter of 2020. On top of the Brand
Partners that have joined, there are also over 4,500 customers that have placed orders through Brand Partners.
The
process of becoming a New You, LLC Brand Partner or Customer begins with viewing the company website which gives information on all of
the products. Brand Partners are introduced to the business and products through word of mouth, tradeshows, and local events. When Brand
Partners decide to join, they are required to read and agree to the terms and conditions of the Company prior to signing up. All Brand
Partners are supplied with training videos, weekly conference calls, and training seminars to teach them about the products.
Our
Products and Services
Our
team of industry veterans will work to obtain premium products for both wholesale and retail distribution globally through both our MLM
and third-party distributors.
Our
Operational Plan
The
Company plans to operate its subsidiaries with an emphasis on continual efficiency that results from economies of scale in supply, media,
manufacturing, finance, and administration. The Company’s brands are acquired or licensed based partly on their strategic value
to other portfolio brands and the Company’s ability to deliver value to the brand that results in higher sales or greater profitability.
The Company plans to leverage its financial strength to lower the costs of capital for each of the brands to fuel growth for each brand
with maximum efficiency.
Our
Competitive Advantages
We
believe that our advantages are fourfold:
1.
Our global approach to brand launches not just the focus on the US market;
2.
Taking a scientific approach to creation of products;
3.
Synthetic API created for scalability; and,
4.
The senior management’s knowledge of not only the sector but the ability to scale business to enhance shareholder value in the
public market.
Government
Regulations
We
are subject to the laws and regulations of those jurisdictions in which we plan to offer our products and services, which are generally
applicable to business operations, such as business licensing requirements, income taxes and payroll taxes. The possession, use, cultivation,
transfer, manufacture, distribution or dispensing of marijuana is illegal under United States Federal Law (See: The Controlled Substances
Act, 21 U.S.A 801). Marijuana, THC (the psychoactive agent in cannabis that causes people to “get high”), and Cannabis are
designated a Schedule 1 controlled substance under the CSA. Companies that engage in the cannabis industry and individuals investing
in a cannabis industry could be subject to federal criminal prosecution which could include civil fines and other criminal penalties.
Cannabis companies, including dispensaries, grow operators, manufacturers, and other cannabis related businesses, have been subject to
federal and even state investigation or even closed.
A
change in Federal policy resulting in Federal enforcement could have a materially adverse impact on such businesses that in turn could
result in partial or total loss of your investment.
Although
many states have legalized medical and or recreational use and sale of marijuana, not all states have. In addition, the Federal government
has not yet legalized its use or sale. The uncertainty around Federal legalization creates an ongoing risk for all cannabis (marijuana/THC)
businesses. More vigorous federal enforcement or material adverse changes in federal policy can adversely impact marijuana and THC businesses.
Because
of the current state of the Federal Laws governing the cannabis industry, companies who are mainly regulated at the federal level generally
will not do business with cannabis companies. For example, most banks will not transact or loan to cannabis companies. While there is
no rule that says they cannot do business with a cannabis company, because cannabis is deemed illegal under federal law, a bank doing
business with a cannabis company would have reporting obligations that could create issues for it. Consequently, most banks will simply
not do business in the sector. This limits a cannabis company’s ability to get financing and conduct everyday banking transactions.
These issues may also negatively affect your investment.
Competition
At
this time, we have not completed a thorough competitive analysis. We intend to use part of the proceeds to conduct such analysis and
structure our strategy accordingly.
Employees
and Employment Agreements
Our
officers have the flexibility to work on our business as required to execute the business plan and are prepared to devote more time to
our operations as may be required.
We
do not presently have pension, health, annuity, insurance, stock options, profit sharing, or similar benefit plans; however, we may adopt
plans in the future. There are presently no personal benefits available to our directors and officers.
Through
the implementation of our business plan, we intend to hire independent consultants to assist in the development of both our strategic
growth plan and our personal benefit plans.
Intellectual
Property
We
are currently developing synthetic cannabinoid crystals to be used in food additives as well as cosmetics. Since they are synthetic molecules,
synthetic cannabinoids are unique IP that can be patented. In addition, brand logos, tradenames, packaging and other images created for
each brand constitute significant IP that the Company intends to copyright and patent.
In
addition to synthetic cannabinoid crystals, the Company intendeds to seek trademark and patent protection in the United States and Europe
for a range of products developed and acquired by the Company.
Research
and Development
Since
our inception to the date of this Offering Circular, we have spent $0 on research and development activities.
Reports
to Security Holders
In
addition to the current reporting requirements of the Company according to Section 15(d), after the completion of this Tier II, Regulation
A offering, we will become subject to the information and periodic reporting requirements of the Form 1A filers. Such periodic reports,
proxy statements and other information will be available for inspection and copying at the public reference room and on the Commission’s
website at:
http://www.sec.report/cgi-bin/browse-edgar?company=vortex+brands&owner=exclude&action=getcompany.
We will furnish the following reports, statements, and tax information to each stockholder based on the filing status of Company:
1.
Reporting Requirements under Tier II of Regulation A. Following this Tier II, Regulation A offering, we will be required
to comply with certain ongoing disclosure requirements under Rule 257 of Regulation A. We will be required to file: an annual report
with the SEC on Form 1-K; a semi-annual report with the SEC on Form 1-SA; current reports with the SEC on Form 1-U; and a notice under
cover of Form 1-Z. The necessity to file current reports will be triggered by certain corporate events, like the ongoing reporting obligation
faced by issuers, however the requirement to file a Form 1-U is expected to be triggered by significantly fewer corporate events than
that of the Form 8-K. Such reports and other information will be available for inspection and copying at the public reference room and
on the Commission’s, website referred to above. Parts I & II of Form 1-Z will be filed by us if and when we decide to and are
no longer obligated to file and provide annual reports pursuant to the requirements of Regulation A. The Company may in the future file
a Form 8-A and elect to come under the Exchange Act and it’s reporting requirements, but there is no assurance the Company will
elect to do so.
2.
Annual Reports. As soon as practicable, but in no event later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the close of our fiscal
year, ending on July 31, our board of directors will cause to be mailed or made available, by any reasonable means, to each Stockholder
as of a date selected by the board of directors, an annual report containing financial statements of the Company for such fiscal year,
presented in accordance with GAAP, including a balance sheet and statements of operations, company equity and cash flows, with such statements
having been audited by an accountant selected by the board of directors. The board of directors shall be deemed to have made a report
available to each stockholder as required if it has either (i) filed such report with the SEC via its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis
and Retrieval, or EDGAR, system and such report is publicly available on such system or (ii) made such report available on any website
maintained by us and available for viewing by the stockholders.
3.
Section 15(d). Since the company filed a registration statement on Form S-1 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities
Act”), it is subject to periodic reporting requirements by Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act. Section 15(d) requires the company
to file periodic reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K until the end of the fiscal year in which its Act registration statement became
effective. Additionally, the 1934 Act imposes special reporting requirements on companies in the following contexts:
Proxy
solicitations: The SEC uses a procedure called proxy to allow geographically distant shareholders to participate in elections without
attending meetings. Naturally, persons seeking control, including insiders hoping to retain control, solicit those proxies for their
candidates. Companies must file materials with the SEC in advance of any such solicitations.
Tender
offers: The 1934 Act requires disclosure of important information by anyone seeking to acquire more than 5 percent of a company’s
securities by direct purchase, also known as a tender offer.
Legal
Proceedings
From
time to time, we may become party to litigation or other legal proceedings that we consider to be a part of the ordinary course of our
business. We are not currently involved in legal proceedings that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our
business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations. We may become involved in material legal proceedings in the future.
Governing
Law, and Venue
This
Agreement shall be construed in accordance with, and governed by, the laws of the District Court of the 8th Judicial District
of the State of Nevada for any claim as to which the District Court District Court of the 8th Judicial District of the State
of Nevada has jurisdiction. Unless any claim as to which the District Court District Court of the 8th Judicial District of
the State of Nevada determines there is an indispensable party not subject to the jurisdiction of the District Court of the 8th
Judicial District of the State of Nevada (and the indispensable party does not consent to the personal jurisdiction of the District
Court District Court of the 8th Judicial District of the State of Nevada within ten days following such determination), which
is vested in the exclusive jurisdiction of a court or forum other than the District Court District Court of the 8th Judicial
District of the State of Nevada, or for which the District Court District Court of the 8th Judicial District of the State
of Nevada does not have subject matter jurisdiction. This provision does not, nor is intended to, apply to claims under the Federal securities
laws.
Emerging
Growth Company Status
We
are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act. For as long as we are an “emerging growth company,”
we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are
not “emerging growth companies,” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation
requirements of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic
reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding advisory “say-on-pay” votes on executive compensation
and shareholder advisory votes on golden parachute compensation.
Under
the JOBS Act, we will remain an “emerging growth company” until the earliest of:
|
●
|
the
last day of the fiscal year during which we have total annual gross revenues of $1 billion or more;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
the
last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the effective date of this registration statement;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
the
date on which we have, during the previous three-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non- convertible debt; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
the
date on which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange
Act.
|
We
will qualify as a large, accelerated filer as of the first day of the first fiscal year after we have (i) more than $700 million in outstanding
common equity held by our non-affiliates and (ii) been public for at least 12 months. The value of our outstanding common equity will
be measured each year on the last day of our second fiscal quarter.
The
Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that we may elect to utilize the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting
standards and such election is irrevocable if made. As such, we have made the election to use the extended transition period for complying
with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act.
Going
Concern
Our
auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements,
the Company has suffered losses and has experienced negative cash flows from operations, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s
ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to those matters are also described in Note 3 to the financial
statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

with a revenue of $636,589 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $1,076,123 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The
decrease was primarily due to not yet recovering from the COVID-19 shutdown. At this stage in our development, revenues are not yet sufficient
to cover ongoing operating expenses.
Gross

ended June 30, 2020. Our gross margin percentage for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was 94%, compared to 91% for the three months
ended June 30, 2020. The change in gross margin in the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020
was due to increased sales of higher margin items during the period. Comparing the six months ended June 30, 2021 to June 30, 2020, gross
profit decreased $386,573 with a gross profit of $557,701 during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $944,274 for the six
months ended June 30, 2020. Our gross margin percentage for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was 88%, compared to 88% for the six months
ended June 30, 2020. There was no change in overall margin for the period ending June 30, 2021 compared to June 30, 2020.
Selling,
General, and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general, and administrative expenses (“SG&A expenses”) for the three

(iii) incremental expenses resulting from the ST Brands merger; (iiii) and an decrease in other SG&A expenses. Including non-cash
stock based compensation for the three months ended June 30, 2021 of $10,000, compared to $695,660 in stock based compensation for the
three months June 30, 2020; and (iv) an increase in goodwill impairment of $8,138,045. In Comparing the six months ended June 30, 2021
to June 30, 2020, SG&A expenses were $11,241,331 compared to$2,540,530, an increase of $8,700,801. The main cause of the increase
was the non-cash stock based compensation expensed during the six months ended June 30, 2021 of $1,811,619 and the merger of ST Brands
with a goodwill impairment of $8,138,045.

Operating
Loss. We realized an operating loss of $8,784,702 before interest and income taxes for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared
to operating loss of $664,255 for the three months ended June 30, 2020. When comparing the six months ending June 30, 2021 to 2020, we
realized an operating loss of $10,683,631 compared to $1,596,256 mainly due to expensing the remaining amount of Stock Based Compensation
and impairing the goodwill relating to the ST Brand acquisition.
Interest
Expense. Interest expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was $1,863,119 compared to $491,400 for the three months ended
June 31, 2020. The increase is a reflection of the addition of financing in the current period verses the prior period ending June 30,
2020. Interest expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were $2,116,743 compared to $523,333 for the six months ended June 30,
2020. The increase is a reflection of the addition of financing in the current period verses the prior period ending June 30, 2020.
Net
Loss. We incurred a net loss of $10,891,121 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to net loss of $1,155,655 for the three
months ended June 30, 2020. The primary reason for the increase in net loss is due to an increase in interest expense from the addition
of financing and impairing the goodwill relating to the ST Brand acquisition. The company incurred a net loss of $11,768,620 for the
six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to a net loss of $2,120,389 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The primary reason for the
increase in net loss is due to an increases in interest expenses in the amount of $1,593,410 and impairing the goodwill relating to the
ST Brand acquisition. Management will continue to make an effort to lower operating expenses and increase revenue.
Results
of Operations for the Fiscal Years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019
Revenues.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, we generated revenues of $2,008,493, a decrease of $823,933 compared to December 31, 2019.
The decrease was due to declining revenue generated by New You LLC as a result of a slowed economy brought about by the global Covid
pandemic. At this stage in our development, revenues are not yet sufficient to cover ongoing operating expenses.
Gross
Profit. Our gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $1,723,334, a decrease of $654,332 compared to December 31, 2019.
Our gross margin percentage for the year ended December 31, 2020 was 86%,
compared to 84% for the year ended December 31, 2019. The increase in gross profit generated by New You LLC is largely a result of product
sales mix and the associated costs for the year.
Selling,
General, and Administrative Expenses. Selling, General, and Administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2020 were $4,958,672,
an increase of $889,508 compared to December 31, 2019. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the components of the change in Selling,
General, and Administrative expenses were: (i) decrease in commission expenses; (ii) decrease in payroll expenses; (iii) decrease in
other selling general and administrative expenses; and (iv) increase in stock based compensation.

Operating
Loss. We realized an operating loss of $3,235,338 for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to $1,691,498 for the year ended
December 31, 2019.
Net
Loss. We incurred a net loss of $5,046,711, for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to a net loss of $1,692,298 for the year
ended December 31, 2019. The primary reason for the increase in net loss is due to decreased revenue earned, increased stock based compensation
expense, finance charges including non-interest expense of $496,639, and change in fair value of derivative features embedded within
certain convertible notes of $1,066,421 during the year. Management will continue to make an effort to lower operating expenses and increase
revenue. We will continue to invest in further expanding our operations and a comprehensive marketing campaign with the goal of accelerating
the education of potential clients and promoting our name and our products. Given the fact that most of the operating expenses are fixed
or have quasi-fixed character, management expects them to significantly decrease as a percentage of revenues as revenues increase.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
At
June 30, 2021, we had a cash balance of $14,577, compared to a cash balance of $45,102 at December 31, 2020. At June 30, 2021, we had
a working capital deficit of $13,899,734, compared to a working capital deficit of $2,460,718 at December 31, 2020. The Company’s
existing and available capital resources are not expected to be sufficient to satisfy our funding requirements through one year from
the date of this filing in the absence of share issuances or other sources of financing.
We
have not been able to generate sufficient cash from operating activities to fund our ongoing operations. Since our inception, we have
raised capital through private sales of preferred stock, common stock, and debt securities.
We
will be required to raise additional funds through public or private financing, additional collaborative relationships or other arrangements
until we are able to raise revenues to a point of positive cash flow. We are evaluating various options to further reduce our cash requirements
to operate at a reduced rate, as well as options to raise additional funds, including obtaining loans and selling common stock. There
is no guarantee that we will be able to generate enough revenue and/or raise capital to support its operations.

on the above factors, substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of these
financial statements.
The
issuance of additional securities may result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining
loans, assuming these loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments. There is no assurance that
we will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued operations or that additional financing will be available for use
when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms.
The
effect of existing or probable government regulations on our business is not known at this time. Due to the nature of our business, it
is anticipated that there may be increasing government regulation that may cause us to have to take serious corrective actions or make
changes to the business plan.
Plan
of Operation
The
Company has established the following milestones for projected business:

These
are estimates and approximations and there is no assurance the Company will be able to hit these exact numbers. There may some fluctuation
due to real estate market pressures, competition for potential properties, and the varying regulatory environment in various states.
The
Company has established a minimum annual operating budget of $5,500,000.
Trends
and Key Factors Affecting Our Performance
We
plan to invest significant resources to accomplish our goals, and we anticipate that our operating expenses will continue to increase
for the foreseeable future, particularly manufacturing costs, marketing costs, installation costs, distribution costs, maintenance costs,
and overhead. These investments are intended to contribute to our long-term growth; however, they may affect our short-term profitability.
The
Company has established a minimum annual operating budget of $5,500,000.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We
have no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial
condition, changes in our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital
resources that are material to our stockholders.
Inflation
The
effect of inflation on our revenues and operating results has not been significant.
Critical
Accounting Policies
Our
financial statements are affected by the accounting policies used and the estimates and assumptions made by management during their preparation.
We have identified below the critical accounting policies which are assumptions made by management about matters that are highly uncertain
and that are of critical importance and have a material impact on our financial statements. Management believes that the critical accounting
policies and estimates discussed below involve the most complex management judgments due to the sensitivity of the methods and assumptions
necessary in determining the related asset, liability, revenue and expense amounts. Specific risks associated with these critical accounting
policies are discussed throughout this MD&A, where such policies have a material effect on reported and expected financial results.
A
complete listing of our significant policies is included in the notes to our financial statements for the period ended.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. Estimates are based on historical experience,
management expectations for future performance, and other assumptions as appropriate. We re-evaluate estimates on an ongoing basis; therefore,
actual results may vary from those estimates.

Director
Qualifications
We
believe that our directors should have the highest professional and personal ethics and values, consistent with our longstanding values
and standards. They should have broad experience at the policy-making level in business or banking. They should be committed to enhancing
stockholder value and should have sufficient time to carry out their duties and to provide insight and practical wisdom based on experience.
Their service on other boards of public companies should
be limited to a number that permits them, given their individual circumstances, to perform responsibly all director duties for us. Each
director must represent the interests of all stockholders. When considering potential director candidates, the Board also considers the
candidate’s character, judgment, diversity, age, and skills, including financial literacy and experience in the context of our
needs and the needs of the Board.
Employment
Agreements
We
currently do not have any employment agreements with any of our directors or executive officers.
Family
Relationships
There
are no family relationships between or among the directors, executive officers or persons nominated or chosen by us to become directors
or executive officers.
Involvement
in Certain Legal Proceedings
To
our knowledge, our directors and executive officers have not been involved in any of the following events during the past ten years:
|
●
|
Any
bankruptcy petition filed by or against such person or any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer
either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Any
conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor
offenses);
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Being
subject to any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction,
permanently or temporarily enjoining him from or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking
activities or to be associated with any person practicing in banking or securities activities;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Being
found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action, the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated
a Federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Being

Being
subject of or party to any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended, or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization,
any registered entity or any equivalent exchange, association, entity, or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members
or persons associated with a member.
|
Code
of Ethics
We
have not adopted a Code of Ethics, but we expect to adopt a Code of Ethics in fiscal 2021 and will post such code to our website.
Term
of Office
Our
directors are appointed to hold office until the next annual general meeting of our stockholders or until removed from office in accordance
with our Bylaws. Our officers are appointed by the Board and hold office until removed by the Board, absent an employment agreement.
Conflicts
of Interest
Since
we do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors, the functions that would have been performed by
such committees are performed by our directors. The Board has not established an audit committee and does not have an audit committee
financial expert, nor has the Board established a nominating committee. The Board is of the opinion that such committees are not necessary
since we are in the earlier stages of operations. We have seven directors, and to date, such directors have been performing the functions
of such committees. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our directors and officers have the authority to determine
issues concerning management compensation, nominations, and audit issues that may affect management decisions.
Corporate
Governance
Recent
Federal legislation, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, has resulted in the adoption of various corporate governance measures
designed to promote the integrity of the corporate management and the securities markets. Some of these measures have been adopted in
response to legal requirements. Others have been adopted by companies in response to the requirements of national securities exchanges,
such as the NYSE or The NASDAQ Stock Market, on which their securities are listed. Among the corporate governance measures that are required
under the rules of national securities exchanges are those that address board of directors’ independence, audit committee oversight,
and the adoption of a code of ethics. Our Board of Directors is comprised of five individuals, one of them being our executive officer
and another one of them being our financial officer with our final two as directors. Our executive officer makes decisions on all significant
corporate matters such as the approval of terms of the compensation of our officers and directors and the oversight of the accounting
functions.
The
Company has not adopted corporate governance measures such as an audit or other independent committees of our board of directors as we
presently have two independent directors. If we expand our board membership in future periods to include additional independent directors,
the Company may seek to establish an audit and other committees of our board of directors. It is possible that if our Board of Directors
included independent directors and if we were to adopt some or all of these corporate governance measures, stockholders would benefit
from somewhat greater assurances that internal corporate decisions were being made by disinterested directors and that policies had been
implemented to define responsible conduct. For example, in the absence of audit, nominating and compensation committees comprised of
at least a majority of independent directors, decisions concerning matters such as compensation packages to our senior officer and recommendations
for director nominees may be made by a majority of directors who have an interest in the outcome of the matters being decided. Prospective
investors should bear in mind our current lack of corporate governance measures in formulating their investment decisions.

13: Interest of Management and Others in Certain Transactions Related Party Transactions
The
Company’s officers and directors own a significant percentage of the issued and outstanding controlling shares of the Company.
Consequently, they control the operations of the Company and will have the ability to control all matters submitted to stockholders for
approval, including, but not limited to:
|
●
|

|
|
|

Adoption
of measures that could delay or prevent a change in control or impede a merger, takeover or other business combination.
|
Thus,
our officers and directors will have control over the Company’s management and affairs. Accordingly, this ownership may have the
effect of impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination, or discouraging a potential acquirer from making
a tender offer for the Common Stock.

On
May 3, 2021, we entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with ST
Brands, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“STB”), and the sole shareholder of STB,
Jason Frankovich, our former Executive Chairman. Concurrently with the closing of the Agreement,
Mr. Frankovich became our Executive Chairman and a member of our Board of Directors. (Mr.
Frankovich resigned from all executive positions and as a director on October 8, 2021). Under
the Agreement, we acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of STB in exchange
for our issuance to Mr. Frankovich of shares of our newly-designated Series A Preferred Stock.
The class of Series A Preferred Stock consists of 4,500,000 shares of preferred stock convertible
to our common stock at a ratio of 100 for 1. As a whole, all designated shares of Series
A Preferred are convertible to approximately the cumulative equivalent of ninety percent
(90%) of our issued and outstanding share capital as of May 3, 2021. The Agreement contemplates
that our existing business and assets will remain and continue under our ownership following
the closing of the Closing.
Shares
of Series A Preferred Stock shall be issuable to Mr. Frankovich under the Agreement upon each of several contemplated Closings, each
Closing to take place upon our receipt of audited financial statements reflecting certain levels of annual revenue earned by STB
and/or Acquired Material Businesses, as defined in the Exchange Agreement and as described in Exhibit B thereto. Up to 4,500,000
shares of Series A Preferred Stock may be issued, with all Closings to occur on or before April 30, 2021. Under the Initial Closing
on the date of the Agreement, we issued 500,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to Mr. Frankovich.

to Consolidated Financial Statements
REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To
the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
New
You, Inc.
Opinion
on the Financial Statements
We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of New You, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019,
the related consolidated statements of operations, , stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for each of the two years in the period
ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion,
the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and
2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Explanatory
Paragraph – Going Concern
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described
in Note 2, the Company has a significant working capital deficiency, has incurred significant losses and needs to raise additional funds
to meet its obligations and sustain its operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue
as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis
for Opinion
These
financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s
financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal
securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company
is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits
we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion
on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our
audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error
or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical
Audit Matters
The
critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated
or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial
statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of a critical audit matter
does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit
matter below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Fair
value of the level 3 default put option derivatives
As
described in Notes 9 and 11 to the financial statements, the Company has entered into certain debt agreements that contain default put
features that may be triggered in the event the Company defaults on its convertible notes. The Company has bifurcated such default put
features and recognized them as derivatives. The Company used a Monte Carlo simulation model to simulate the stock price, the default
likelihood, and the default liability, in order to determine the fair value of these derivatives at inception and at year-end.
The
principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to evaluating the valuation of these derivatives is
a critical audit matter, are that there is significant judgment by management in the determining the inputs and assumptions used in the
Monte Carlo simulation model. This in turn led to high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing audit procedures
in evaluating audit evidence related to management’s inputs and assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation model. Also, the
evaluation of audit evidence related to the derivative valuation required significant auditor judgment as the nature of the evidence
is often subjective, and the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to assist in evaluating
the audit evidence obtained.
Addressing
the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating evidence in connection with forming our overall audit opinion on the consolidated
financial statements. These procedures included, among others, (i) evaluating the reasonableness of management’s inputs and assumptions
used in the Monte Carlo simulation model; and (ii) performing an independent recalculations of the estimated fair value of the derivatives.
Professionals with specialized skills and knowledge were used to assist in the evaluation of the measurement of the Company’s estimated
fair value of the derivatives.

New
You, Inc.
Notes
to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note
1 – Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
Nature
of Business
New
You, Inc., formerly known as The Radiant Creations Group, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on December 29,
2005. From inception, the Company’s principal business activity was the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources. On June
20, 2013, following a change of control and subsequent acquisition of an exclusive license agreement, the Company changed its principal
business to the development and marketing of cosmetics and over-the-counter personal enhancement products and devices. After a change
in control on July 11, 2018, the Company changed its principal business to selling cannabidiol (“CBD”) hemp oil-based products
through independent business owners (called “Brand Partners”).
The
Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary New You LLC, markets and sells its products through a multi-level marketing sales opportunity.
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America (“GAAP”) to reflect the accounts and operations of the Company.
On
January 9, 2019, the Company completed a reverse recapitalization (“Recapitalization”) with New You LLC, a privately held
Wyoming limited liability company, in accordance with the terms of a share exchange agreement (“Share Exchange Agreement”).
Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company issued 15,974,558 common shares in exchange for one hundred percent (100%) of the
outstanding units of New You LLC (11,450 units), with New You LLC becoming a wholly-owned operating subsidiary of the Company. The transaction
was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization because the Company was a shell company prior to the transaction. For accounting purposes,
New You LLC is considered to have obtained the net monetary assets of the Company in exchange for equity. Upon the consummation of the
Recapitalization, the historical financial statements of New You LLC became the consolidated company’s historical financial statements.
Accordingly, these financial statements reflect the financial position and operations of New You LLC, except that the capital structure
of New You LLC has been adjusted based on the ratio of common shares issued and units transferred in accordance with the Share Exchange
Agreement.
Risks
and Uncertainties
In
March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic which continues to spread
throughout the United States. We are currently negatively impacted through a reduction in sales by the outbreak of COVID-19 and the related
business and travel restrictions and changes to behavior intended to reduce its spread, and continue to monitor its impact on operations,
financial position, cash flows, customer purchasing trends, and the industry in general, in addition to the impact on our employees.
We have concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could continue to have a negative impact on the results of operations,
the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of 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 financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s
significant estimates include estimates for future charge-backs, allowance for slow moving or obsolete inventory, stock-based compensation
expense, and the fair value of the derivative liabilities.
Financial
Instruments
The
Company’s balance sheets include the following financial instruments: cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payable and
payables to a stockholder. The carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair value because of the
relatively short period of time between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization. The carrying values of the
notes payable and amounts due to stockholder approximates fair value based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for
instruments with similar terms and remaining maturities.
FASB
Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) topic, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, defines fair value as the exchange
price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market
for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a
fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent
sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best
information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives
the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority
to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
Level
1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities
Level
2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly,
including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities
in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates);
and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level
3 - Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
Fair
value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of December
31, 2020.
Derivative
Liabilities
The
Company assessed the classification of its derivative financial instruments as of December 31, 2020, which consist of convertible instruments,
and determined that such derivatives meet the criteria for liability classification under ASC 815.
ASC
815 generally provides three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and
account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic
characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and
risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is
not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported
in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered
a derivative instrument subject to the requirements of ASC 815.
Beneficial
Conversion Features
ASC
470-20 applies to convertible securities with beneficial conversion features that must be settled in stock and to those that give the
issuer a choice in settling the obligation in either stock or cash. ASC 470-20 requires that the beneficial conversion feature should
be valued at the commitment date as the difference between the conversion price and the fair market value of the common stock into which
the security is convertible, multiplied by the number of shares into which the security is convertible. This amount is recorded as a
debt discount and amortized over the life of the debt. ASC 470-20 further limits this amount to the proceeds allocated to the convertible
instrument.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original term of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of December
31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had no cash equivalents.
Credit
Card Receivables
Credit
card receivable consists of only the amount due from the credit card processing companies. There is no need for an allowance for doubtful
accounts, since the system and processor make sure that the transaction is successful prior to the sale being finalized. Accordingly,
no allowance was recorded as of December 31, 2020 or 2019.
Inventory
Inventory
consists of finished goods and is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first in first out
(FIFO) method. Provision for potentially obsolete or slow-moving inventory is made based on management analysis or inventory levels and
future sales forecasts.
Prepaid
Expenses
Prepaid
expenses consist of various payments that the Company has made in advance for goods or services to be received in the future. These prepaid
expenses primarily consist of deposits on inventory yet to be delivered or shipped.
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment are stated at cost, net of depreciation provided by use of a straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
assets, which is five years for vehicles and seven years for furniture and fixtures. The Company reviews property and equipment for potential
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of assets may not be recoverable.
Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets
We
evaluate the recoverability of long-lived assets in accordance with authoritative guidance on accounting for the impairment or disposal
of long-lived assets. We evaluate long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
value of these assets may not be recoverable. Such impairment is recognized in the event the net book value of such assets exceeds their
fair value. No impairment of long-lived assets occurred during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.
Basic
and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
Basic
net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding for the period, without consideration for common stock equivalents. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing
the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common share equivalents outstanding for the period
determined using the treasury-stock method. For purposes of this calculation, the Company currently does not have any common share equivalents;
therefore, its basic and diluted net loss per share calculations is the same.

Revenue
Recognition
Revenue
is recognized in accordance with ASC 606, Contracts with Customers, by analyzing exchanges with the Company’s customers and Brand
Partners using a five-step analysis that includes identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable
consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation.
The
Company recognizes revenue when the customer obtains control of the promised good and all performance obligations are met. Revenue is
recognized at an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those services.
The
Company records sales of finished products once the customer or Brand Partner places and pays for the order and the product is shipped.
Control is considered transferred when title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer, which is upon shipment of the product.
The Company treats shipping expenses as costs to fulfill a contract, so that revenue is recognized gross of shipping expenses. The Company
recognizes revenue net of sales taxes.
The
Company and its Brand Partners agree to provide customers with a 100% satisfaction guaranteed policy that allows the customer sixty days
from the sales transaction to return the product and receive a 100% refund, and one year for a Brand Partner to get a 90% refund, as
long as the product remains in saleable condition and the Brand Partner or the Company have not cancelled the Brand Partner agreement.
The Company records an estimate for provisions of returns and other adjustments for each shipment, which is netted with gross sales.
The Company accounts for such provisions during the same period in which the related revenues are earned. The Company has determined
that the population of contracts with the Company’s customers and Brand Partners tends to be homogenous, so that review of the
contracts and estimate of various revenue related adjustments can be applied to the entire population. The Company had customer returns
of $63,272 for the year ended December 31, 2020 and $79,090 for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company has not recorded a reserve
for returns at December 31, 2020, or 2019 since it does not believe such returns will be material.
As
of December 31, 2020, the Company did not have any in-process or prepaid sales orders or transactions that would require the recognition
of a contract liability.
Cost
of Revenue
Amounts
recorded as cost of revenue relate to direct product costs. Such costs are recorded when the associated revenue is recognized. Our cost
of revenue consists primarily of the cost of product, and the cost of product samples.
Commission
Expense and Contract Acquisition Costs
The
Company markets and sells its products through a multi-level marketing sales platform. Commissions are earned on product sales to Brand
Partners and customers at a rate of 10% for every transaction plus a specified spread on recurring sales. Brand Partners earn a 5% commission
on sales by other team members at lower levels up to nine levels below the Brand Partner. Brand Partners can earn an additional bonus
for customer sales and team sales. The team bonus is $400 for each time their team bonus volume reaches a certain amount in a 30-day
period. Brand Partners can also earn an initial bonus for qualifying customer purchases in the Brand Partners’ first 30 days of
20% of the transaction value.
The
Company treats commission payments as costs to obtain a contract in accordance with ASC 340, “Other Assets and Deferred Costs.”
Commissions are accrued upon shipment of the product to either the Brand Partner or the customer.
Advertising
Expenses
The
Company expenses advertising costs as incurred in accordance with ASC 720-35, “Other Expenses – Advertising Cost.”
Advertising expenses totaled $12,385 for the year ended December 31, 2020 and $12,626 for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Income
Taxes
The
Company provides for income taxes utilizing the asset and liability method of accounting. Under this method, deferred income taxes are
recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial
reporting amounts at each balance sheet date, based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the
differences are expected to affect taxable income. If it is determined that it is more likely than not that future tax benefits associated
with a deferred tax asset will not be realized, a valuation allowance is provided. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities
of a change in the tax rates is recognized in the statements of operations as an adjustment to income tax expense in the period that
includes the enactment date. Utilization of the net operating loss carry forwards and credits may be subject to a substantial annual
limitation due to ownership change limitations provided by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and similar
state provisions.
ASC
Topic 740-10, Income Taxes, clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the Company’s financial statements
in accordance with GAAP. Income tax positions must meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold to be recognized. Income tax positions
that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in
which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are derecognized
in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met.
The
Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.
Stock
Compensation Expense
ASC
718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions.
Transactions include incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares, options, and other equity instruments such as employee
stock ownership plans and stock appreciation rights. Share-based payments to employees and non-employees, including grants of employee
stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on their fair values at the grant date. That
expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the
requisite service period (usually the vesting period).
The
Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505-50,
Equity – Based Payments to Non-Employees. Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based on the fair
grant date FV of equity instruments. The fair value of the share-based payment transaction is determined at the earlier of performance
commitment date or performance completion date. Share-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 was $2,787,568
and $677,604, respectively.
Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncements
FASB
ASU No. 2019-12 Income Taxes - In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting
for Income Taxes, as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in the accounting standards. The standard eliminates certain exceptions
related to the approach for intra-period tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition
of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The standard also clarifies and simplifies other aspects of the accounting
for income taxes. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal
years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have upon its financial position
and results of operations, if any.
ASU
2020-06: In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives
and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an
Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under
current GAAP. The ASU also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative
scope exception and simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. The amendments in this ASU are effective
for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2023, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process
of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its financial statements.
Note
2 – Going Concern
We
incurred a net loss of $5,046,711 for the year ended December 31, 2020, of which $2,787,568 was related to non-cash stock based compensation,
and had an accumulated deficit of $7,167,015 . At December 31, 2020, we had a cash balance of approximately $45,102, compared to a cash
balance of $1,125 at December 31, 2019. At December 31, 2020, we had a working capital deficit of $2,460,718, compared to a working capital
deficit of $1,047,273 at December 31, 2019.
We
have not been able to generate sufficient cash from operating activities to fund our ongoing operations. We will be required to raise
additional funds through public or private financing, additional collaborative relationships or other arrangements until we are able
to raise revenues to a point of positive cash flow. We are evaluating various options to further reduce our cash requirements to operate
at a reduced rate, as well as options to raise additional funds, including obtaining loans and selling common stock. There is no guarantee
that we will be able to generate enough revenue and/or raise capital to support operations.
Based
on the above factors, substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of these
financial statements.
Note
3 – Concentrations of Business and Credit Risk
The
Company at times maintains balances in various operating accounts in excess of federally insured limits.
Since
the Company sells its products to a large number of customers, there is no receivable or revenue concentration from customers. However,
as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, one credit card processor accounted for 100% of credit card receivables.
Note
4 – Equity
On
January 9, 2019, the Company purchased one hundred percent (100%) of the outstanding units of New You LLC. Pursuant to the terms and
conditions of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company issued 15,974,558 common shares in exchange for one hundred percent (100%) of
New You LLC outstanding units. As a result of the Share Exchange Agreement, New You LLC became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
New You LLC began operations in August 2018.
On
March 8, 2019, pursuant to stockholder consent, our Board of Directors authorized an amendment (the “Amendment”) to our Certificate
of Incorporation, as amended, to (i) change the name of the Company from The Radiant Creations Group, Inc. to New You, Inc. and (ii)
effect a reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock, par value $0.00001, on a 1 for 50 basis (the “Reverse
Stock Split”). We filed the Amendment with the Nevada Secretary of State reflecting the name change on March 27, 2019. On April
29, 2019, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. notified us that the Name Change and Reverse Stock Split would take effect
on April 30, 2019 (the “Effective Date”). On the Effective Date, each holder of common stock received 1 share of our common
stock for each 50 shares of our common stock they owned immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split. We did not issue fractional shares
in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. Fractional shares were rounded up to the nearest whole share. In addition, on the Effective
Date the Company’s trading symbol changed to “RCGPD” for a period of 20 business days, after which the “D”
was removed from the Company’s trading symbol and began trading under new trading symbol “NWYU.” Unless otherwise indicated,
the information in these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements gives effect to the 1-for-50 reverse stock split of the
Company’s common stock, par value $0.00001 per share and name change from The Radiant Creations Group, Inc. to New You, Inc., effected
on April 30, 2019.

at $3,055,565 for employees and several consultants for services that will be provided in the future and will vest over the course of
twenty-four months or twelve months based on the specific contract. The Company estimates the fair value of the shares at $0.50 per share
based on the price at which the Company issued common shares for cash in 2019 and not based on the amount that shares were trading for
on the OTC “Pink” market since shares were thinly traded on the market when the equity instruments were granted.

5 – Commitments and Contingencies
Operating
Lease Commitments
A
lease provides the lessee the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Right
of use (ROU) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities
represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. The Company determines if an arrangement is a
lease at inception. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments
over the lease term. Most operating leases contain renewal options that provide for rent increases based on prevailing market conditions.
The lease term used to calculate the ROU asset includes renewal periods or periods subject to termination when it is reasonably certain
that the Company will lease the assets in such periods.
The
discount rate used to determine the commencement date present value of lease payments is the interest rate implicit in the lease, or
when that is not readily determinable, the estimated incremental secured borrowing rate. ROU assets include any lease payments required
to be made prior to commencement and exclude lease incentives. Both ROU assets and lease liabilities exclude variable payments not based
on an index or rate, which are treated as period costs. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain significant residual value
guarantees, restrictions or covenants.
The
Company leases a warehouse facility under a lease agreement that expires July 31, 2021. The Company does not have any significant capital
leases.

6 - Litigation and Claims
The
Company may be involved in lawsuits and claims arising in the ordinary course of business from time to time. The Company reviews any
such legal proceedings and claims on an ongoing basis and follows appropriate accounting guidance when making accrual and disclosure
decisions. The Company establishes accruals for those contingencies where the incurrence of a loss is probable and can be reasonably
estimated, and it discloses the amount accrued and the amount of a reasonably possible loss in excess of the amount accrued, if such
disclosure is necessary for the Company’s financial statements not to be misleading. To estimate whether a loss contingency should
be accrued by a charge to income, the Company evaluates, among other factors, the degree of probability of an unfavorable outcome and
the ability to make a reasonable estimate of the amount of the loss. The Company does not record liabilities when the likelihood that
the liability has been incurred is probable, but the amount cannot be reasonably estimated. Based upon present information, the Company
determined that there were no matters that neither required an accrual as of December 31, 2020 or 2019, nor were there any asserted or
unasserted material claims for which material losses are reasonably possible.
Note
7 – Related Party Transactions
During
the year December 31, 2020 and 2019, directors and members of management provided loans to the Company or paid for various expenses of
the Company. These loans contained no interest, term or due date. As of December 31, 2020, these loans had a combined balance of $523,658
for the CEO, the President, and two other board members. Total additions to these loans during the year ended December 31, 2020 were

related parties), which is a principal stockholder of New You, Inc. and is owned by a principal stockholder of New You, Inc., for inventory
purchases. During the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we made purchases of $183,929 and $238,588, respectively,
from Carlsbad Naturals, LLC. As of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we owed $27,500 and $22,500, respectively, for consulting

During
the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company received loan proceeds of $100,000 from a related party pursuant to a promissory note with
a maturity date of April 7, 2020 and interest of $5,000 per month. If the Company defaults on the loan, the note’s terms require
the Company to issue default shares of 100,000 each time the Company is late on its interest payment, 250,000 shares if it is late on
principal repayment, and 100,000 shares each subsequent month that repayment has not occurred. The amount of the foregoing shares is
doubled if the stock price falls below $1.00, and may also increase significantly if the Company’s outstanding common shares exceed
40,000,000.In addition, the Company will incur a 15% charge each year that repayment has not occurred. The terms also lay out a blanket
lien on all assets of New You, Inc. including all the shares of New You LLC., all the assets of New You LLC and all shares of any acquired
companies in the future as well as all of their assets. Further, the note requires that the full balance be repaid in order for a change
in control to be consummated. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the amount of penalty shares issued was doubled due to the stock
price falling below $1.00. In total, the Company issued a total of 900,000 shares to the related party during the year ended December
31, 2020 per the agreement: 500,000 shares due to late repayment of the note, and 400,000 shares due to late payment of two months of
interest payments. A total of $75,000 has been repaid, including $25,000 in interest and $50,000 in principal during the year ended December
31, 2020. Interest payments are now $2,500 per month.

rent expense in the accompanying statements of operations for the lease that it is responsible for paying.
During
the first five months of 2019, along with the months of April, May, June, and July 2020, all credit card receivable payments were processed
through the bank account of one of the founding members due to the frequent bank account changes that were occurring with the Company’s
accounts. All funds received into the founder’s bank account were transferred directly to the Company’s account on a weekly
basis and have been accounted for. Between May 31, 2019 and April 4, 2020 and after July 31, 2020, all credit card receivables were deposited
by the credit card processor directly into the Company’s bank account. The balance due from the related party at December 31, 2020
was $0.

Note
1 - During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company received loan proceeds of $125,000 pursuant to a promissory note (“First
Convertible Note”), with a maturity date of June 15, 2020 and interest of $4,167 per month. The note’s terms required that
the Company issue 50,000 common shares, and allowed the note holder to convert the note into common shares at a conversion price of $0.50
per share. This note was not paid off as of December 31, 2020. The Company is still making the agreed upon interest payments of $4,167
per month and there are no penalties for not paying the note off by its maturity date. As of December 31, 2020, the equivalent number
of common shares the Company would be required to issue to satisfy the Note is 250,000.
Note
2 - On June 17, 2020, the Company received $85,000 in loan proceeds, which is net of $3,000 in debt issuance costs, pursuant to a
loan agreement (“Second Convertible Note”), with a maturity date of June 17, 2021 and an interest rate of 8% per annum from
the date of issuance until maturity date. Any amount of principal or interest on this note which is not paid when due shall bear interest
at the rate of 22% per annum from the due date until the full amount is paid. Upon certain events of default, the Company would be obligated
to pay cash equal to the greater of (i) 150% of the outstanding principal and interest, and (ii) the highest closing price of the Company’s
common stock from the date of first default to the date of payment, multiplied by the number of shares that would be issued if the outstanding
principal and interest were converted at 61% of the lowest closing price in the last 20 trading days prior to the date of payment. The
holder may convert the note to common shares starting 180 days after the issuance date at a conversion price equal to 61% of the lowest
trading price in the last 20 trading days. The Company is required to reserve three (6) times the number of shares necessary for the
issuance of common stock upon conversion. As of December 31, 2020, the Company owed $88,000 in principal and $3,882 in accrued interest
on the note. As of December 31, 2020, the equivalent number of common shares the Company would be required to issue to satisfy the Note
is 1,552,856.
Note
3 - On July 20, 2020, the Company received $40,000 in loan proceeds, which is net of $3,000 in debt issuance costs, pursuant to a
loan agreement (“Third Convertible Note”), with a maturity date of July 20, 2021 and an interest rate of 8% per annum from
the date of issuance until maturity date. Any amount of principal or interest on this note which is not paid when due shall bear interest
at the rate of 22% per annum from the due date until the full amount is paid. Upon certain events of default, the Company would be obligated
to pay cash equal to the greater of (i) 150% of the outstanding principal and interest, and (ii) the highest closing price of the Company’s
common stock from the date of first default to the date of payment, multiplied by the number of shares that would be issued if the outstanding
principal and interest were converted at 61% of the lowest closing price in the last 20 trading days prior to the date of payment. The
holder may convert the note to common shares starting 180 days after the issuance date at a conversion price equal to 61% of the lowest
trading price in the last 20 trading days. The Company is required to reserve three (6) times the number of shares necessary for the
issuance of common stock upon conversion. As of December 31, 2020, the Company owed $43,000 in principal and $1,574 in accrued interest
on the note. As of December 31, 2020, the equivalent number of common shares the Company would be required to issue to satisfy the Note
is 753,314
Note
4 – On November 18, 2020, the Company entered into a Secured Promissory Note (“Fourth Convertible Note”) with a
third party, receiving $150,000 in loan proceeds. The Note matures on May 18, 2021 and accrues interest at 2% per month. The Noteholder
may convert any portion of the debt into shares of common stock of the Company at $0.10 USD per share or 30% discount to the 5 day VWAP
on the day of conversion. In addition to the monthly interest, the Company agreed to transfer 100,000 shares of common stock to the Noteholder.
In the event that Company fails to make any payment of principal and/or interest within ten (10) calendar days of the due date for the
same, then in addition to such payment due, the Company is obligated to pay a late payment charge to the Noteholder in the amount of
five percent (5%) of the delinquent principal and/or interest payment. As of December 31, 2020, the Company owed $150,000 in principal
and $4,093 in accrued interest on the note. As of December 31, 2020, the equivalent number of common shares the Company would be required
to issue to satisfy the Note is 2,839,277.
Note
10 – Beneficial Conversion Feature
ASC
470-20 applies to convertible securities with beneficial conversion features that must be settled in stock and to those that give the
issuer a choice in settling the obligation in either stock or cash. ASC 470-20 requires that the beneficial conversion feature should
be valued at the commitment date at its intrinsic value; that being the difference between the conversion price and the fair market value
of the common stock into which the security is convertible, multiplied by the number of shares into which the security is convertible.
This amount is recorded as a debt discount and amortized over the life of the debt. ASC 470-20 further limits this amount to the proceeds
allocated to the convertible instrument.
The
effective conversion prices were compared to the market prices on the dates of each convertible note and they were deemed to be less
than the inception date fair value of the underlying common stock for the Second Convertible Note. The Company recognized a debt discount
as a reduction (contra-liability) to the Second and Fourth Convertible Notes with an increase to paid in capital. The debt discounts
are being amortized over the life of the notes. The Company recognized financing costs for charges by the lender for original issue discounts
and other applicable administrative costs, normally withheld from proceeds, which are being amortized as finance costs over the life
of the loan. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the unamortized beneficial conversion feature associated with our convertible notes was
$140,261 and $0, respectively.
Note
11 - Derivatives and Fair Value
The
Company assessed its convertible notes for purposes of determining the associated embedded default derivatives. The Company relied on
ASC 820-10-35-37 Fair Value in Financial Instruments and ASC 815 Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.
The Company uses judgment in determining the fair value of derivative liabilities at the date of issuance and at every balance sheet
thereafter and in determining which valuation method is most appropriate for the instrument, the expected volatility, the implied risk-free
interest rate, as well as the expected dividend rate, if any.
During
the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company had convertible notes payable outstanding in which the conversion rate was variable and
undeterminable. The Company determined that the embedded conversion options met the definition of a derivative. The effective conversion
price was compared to the market price on the date of the note and was deemed to be less than the market value of underlying common stock
at the inception of the note. The Company recognized a debt discount on the notes as a reduction (contra-liability) to the Convertible
Notes Payable. The debt discounts are being amortized over the life of the notes. The Company recognized financing costs for charges
by the lender applicable administrative costs, normally withheld from proceeds, which are being amortized as finance costs over the life
of the loan.
Accordingly,
the Company recognized that a derivative liability in connection with such instruments for the year ended December 31, 2020 exists; however,
the Company determined that there was no active market for the Company’s common stock and because of this lack of liquidity and
market value, the Company did not record the derivative liabilities associated with the conversion features in its convertible notes.
The
Company is subject to significant cash penalties in the event that the Company defaults on its convertible notes. The default penalties
vary based on the type of default and range from incurring a default interest rate of 22% to a penalty of 50% of the amount due, to a
parity value based on the effective conversion of the note on the date of payment of the default and the maximum stock value during the
period between the default date and the settlement date. The Company determined that certain of the default provisions should be bifurcated
from the debt host and treated as a liability, since they involve the contingent payment of a substantial premium on the convertible
notes. The Company used a Monte Carlo model that values the embedded default derivatives based on simulating the stock price, the default
likelihood, and the default liability.
Fair
Value
ASC
825-10 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in
the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement
date. ASC 825-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize
the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 825-10 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair
value: Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 – Observable
inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; or other inputs that are observable or can
be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and Level 3 – Unobservable
inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing
models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires
significant judgment or estimation. The Company’s Level 3 liabilities consist of the derivative liabilities associated with the
convertible notes. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, all of the Company’s derivative liabilities were categorized as Level 3 fair
value liabilities. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above,
the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
Level
3 Valuation Techniques
Financial
assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar
techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable. Level 3 financial liabilities consist of the derivative
liabilities for which there is no current market for these securities such that the determination of fair value requires significant
judgment or estimation. At the date of the original transaction, we valued the convertible note that contains down round provisions using
a Black-Scholes model, with the assistance of a valuation consultant, for which management understands the methodologies. This model
incorporates transaction details such as the Company’s stock price, contractual terms, maturity, risk free rates, as well as assumptions
about future financings, volatility, and holder behavior. ASC 825-10 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received
for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability
in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 825-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which
requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC
825-10 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets
for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar
assets or liabilities; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full
term of the assets or liabilities; and Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity
and that are financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques,
as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation. The Company’s Level
3 liabilities consist of the derivative liabilities associated with the convertible notes. At December 31, 2020, all of the Company’s
derivative liabilities were categorized as Level 3 fair value liabilities. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities
fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair
value measurement of the instrument.

As
of December 31, 2020, the Company had federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $1,996,820 and $1,996,820,
respectively. The Company’s federal net operating losses may be carried forward indefinitely, and its state net operating losses
will begin to expire in 2039. Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate if sufficient future taxable
income will be generated to use the existing deferred tax assets. A significant piece of objective negative evidence evaluated was the
cumulative losses incurred through the period ended December 31, 2020. Such objective evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective
evidence such as our projections for future growth. On the basis of this evaluation, management has determined to record a full valuation
allowance on its deferred tax assets. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be adjusted if estimates
of future taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced or increased or if objective negative evidence in the form of cumulative
losses is no longer present and additional weight may be given to subjective evidence such as our projections for growth.
The
Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax in various state jurisdictions. The Company is currently open to
audit under the statute of limitations by the Internal Revenue Service and various state agencies for the years ended December 31, 2015
through December 31, 2020.
The
Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act, was enacted March 27, 2020. Among the business provisions, the CARES Act
provided for various payroll tax incentives, changes to net operating loss carryback and carryforward rules, business interest expense
limitation increases, and bonus depreciation on qualified improvement property. Additionally, the Consolidated Appropriations Act of
2021 was signed on December 27, 2020 which provided additional COVID relief provisions for businesses. The Company has evaluated the
impact of both the Acts and has determined that any impact is not material to its financial statements.
Note
13 – Subsequent Events
The
Company has evaluated subsequent events through April 7, 2021, which is the date the financial statements were issued. The Company has
determined that there were no subsequent events which required recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.
On
February 23, 2021, the Company issued 70,000 shares of common stock at $0.05 per share with a value of $3,500 were issued as a finder’s
fee for potential debt issuances in the future.
On
March 11, 2021, we entered into a Letter of Intent with ST Brands, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (“ST”). The LOI outlines the
terms for a potential merger or share exchange agreement (the “Potential Acquisition”) under which we will acquire all of
the issued and outstanding common stock of ST in exchange for our issuance, on a pro rata basis to the stockholders of ST, of new shares
of our preferred stock having the right to convert to the cumulative equivalent of ninety percent (90%) of our issued and outstanding
share capital. The LOI contemplates that our existing business and assets will remain and continue under the Company’s legal ownership
following the closing of the Potential Acquisition.
During
March 2021, the Company issued an aggregate of 3,725,345 shares of common stock in satisfaction of principal and interest on two convertible
notes payable. The Company will record the issuances at the contract value, at the date of exchange, off-setting the notes payable and
accrued interest.
The
Potential Acquisition is subject to various conditions and contingencies, including the satisfactory completion of due diligence by both
parties and ST’s ability to furnish audited consolidated financial statements.

TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
Note
1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature
of Business
New
You, Inc., formerly known as The Radiant Creations Group, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on December 29,
2005. From inception, the Company’s principal business activity was the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources. On June
20, 2013, following a change of control and subsequent acquisition of an exclusive license agreement, the Company changed its principal
business to the development and marketing of cosmetics and over-the-counter personal enhancement products and devices. After a subsequent
change in control on July 11, 2018, the Company changed its principal business to selling cannabidiol (“CBD”) hemp oil-based
products through independent business owners (called “Brand Partners”).
On
May 3, 2021, we entered into an Exchange Agreement with ST Brands, Inc. (STB), a Wyoming corporation, and the shareholders of STB. Under
the Agreement, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of STB in exchange for our issuance to the Shareholders
of STB, shares of our newly-designated Series A Preferred Stock. The class of Series A Preferred Stock consists of 4,500,000 shares of
preferred stock convertible to our common stock at a ratio of 100 for 1. As a whole, all designated shares of Series A Preferred are
convertible to approximately the cumulative equivalent of ninety percent (90%) of our issued and outstanding share capital as of May
3, 2021. The Agreement contemplates that the Company’s existing business and assets will remain and continue under the Company’s
ownership following the each of the closings.
Shares
of Series A Preferred Stock shall be issuable to the Shareholders under the Agreement upon each of several contemplated Closings, each
Closing to take place upon our receipt of audited financial statements reflecting certain levels of annual revenue earned by STB and/or
Acquired Material Businesses, as defined in the Exchange Agreement and as described in Exhibit B in the Agreement. Up to 4,500,000 shares
of Series A Preferred Stock may be issued to the Shareholders, with all Closings to occur on or before April 30, 2022. Under the Initial
Closing on the date of the Agreement, we issued 500,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were issuable to the Shareholders of STB.
The fair value of the 500,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock is included in Purchase Consideration Payable on the balance sheet.
The
Company initially recorded $7,850,000 as goodwill upon acquisition of STB, which had minimal net assets. Management determined that the
goodwill is not recoverable, given that STB had no operations, and accordingly impaired the entire goodwill balance during the quarter
ended June 30, 2021. The Company has not recorded any amounts related to the additional 4,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock
to be issued upon meeting certain milestones as such milestones are not deemed probable and the fair value of the contingent consideration
was not deemed material at inception and at June 30, 2021.
On
May 6, 2021, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company appointed Jason
Frankovich to serve as the new Executive Chairman of the Board. Mr. Frankovich subsequently resigned on October 8, 2021.
On
May 6, 2021, we filed a Certificate of Designation for our newly-designated Series A Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the
State of Nevada (the “Secretary of State”). The class of Series A Preferred Stock (“Series A”) consists of four
million five hundred thousand (4,500,000) shares, par value $0.00001 per share. Key provisions include:
Conversion:
Each share of Series A shall be convertible at the option of the holders thereof, and without the payment of additional consideration,
at any time, into shares of our common stock at a conversion rate of one hundred (100) shares of common stock for every one (1) share
of Series A held (the “Conversion Rate”), subject to adjustment as set forth in the Certificate of Designation. The Conversion
Rate is subject to pro-rata downward adjustment based on the number of shares of common stock (or common stock equivalents) issued in
the future by us for the acquisition of Acquired Material Businesses within the meaning of the Agreement. The Conversion Rate is also
subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse splits, share dividends, and similar corporate actions.
Ranking:
Shares of Series A shall, with respect to rights on liquidation, winding up and dissolution, rank pari passu to our common stock,
par value $0.00001 per share, and any other classes of capital stock.
Voting
Rights: Each share of Series A shall vote on an as-converted basis with the common stock or other equity securities, resulting in
100 votes per one share of Series A Preferred Stock.
The
Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary New You LLC, markets and sells its products through a multi-level marketing sales opportunity.
Basis
of Presentation
The
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the operations of New You, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, New You
LLC. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with Article 10 of Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) Regulation S-X for Interim Reporting. All intercompany transactions, accounts and profits, if any, have been eliminated
in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for
fair statement have been included.
These
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by GAAP. Therefore, these unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the more detailed audited financial statements of New You, Inc.
for the year ended December 31, 2020, which are included in this offering statement.
The
results for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year, any
other interim periods, or any future year or period.
Risks
and Uncertainties
In
March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic which continues to spread
throughout the United States. We are currently negatively impacted through a reduction in sales by the outbreak of COVID-19 and the related
business and travel restrictions and changes to behavior intended to reduce its spread, and continue to monitor its impact on operations,
financial position, cash flows, customer purchasing trends, and the industry in general, in addition to the impact on our employees.
We have concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could continue to have a negative impact on the results of operations,
the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates. The Company’s significant estimates include estimates for future charge-backs and allowance for slow
moving or obsolete inventory.
Basic
and Diluted Net Loss and Income Per Share
Basic
net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common
shares outstanding for the period, without consideration for common stock equivalents. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing
the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common share equivalents outstanding for the period
determined using the treasury-stock method. For purposes of this calculation, the Company currently does not have any common share equivalents;
therefore, its basic and diluted net loss per share calculations is the same.
The
following table presents the computation of basic and diluted net loss or income per common share:

Issued Accounting Pronouncements
FASB
ASU No. 2019-12 Income Taxes - In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting
for Income Taxes, as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in the accounting standards. The standard eliminates certain exceptions
related to the approach for intra-period tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition
of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The standard also clarifies and simplifies other aspects of the accounting
for income taxes. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal
years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has adopted this guidance as of its first quarter ended March 31, 2021. Such adoption
did not have an impact to the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
ASU
2020-06: In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives
and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an
Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under
current GAAP. The ASU also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative
scope exception and simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. The amendments in this ASU are effective
for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2023, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process
of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its financial statements.
Note
2 – Going Concern
We
incurred a net loss of $11,768,620 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and had an accumulated deficit of $18,935,635. At June 30,
2021, we had a cash balance of $14,577 and a working capital deficit of $13,899,734.
We
have not been able to generate sufficient cash from operating activities to fund our ongoing operations. We will be required to raise
additional funds through public or private financing, additional collaborative relationships or other arrangements until we are able
to raise revenues to a point of positive cash flow. We are evaluating various options to further reduce our cash requirements to operate
at a reduced rate, as well as options to raise additional funds, including obtaining loans and selling common stock. There is no guarantee
that we will be able to generate enough revenue and/or raise capital to support operations.
Based
on the above factors, substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of these
financial statements.
Note
3 – Concentrations of Business and Credit Risk
The
Company at times maintains balances in various operating accounts in excess of federally insured limits.
Since
the Company sells its products to a large number of customers, there is no receivable or revenue concentration from customers. However,
as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, one credit card processor accounted for 100% of credit card receivables.
The
Company also made purchases from and has accounts payable to Carlsbad Naturals, LLC as described in Note 10.
Note
4 – Investments in Future Subsidary
During
the six months ended June 30, 2021, there were investments in the amounts of $120,000 to Herring Creek Pharmaceuticals, $1,000 to ST
Biosciences, and $1,500,000 to F Squared Management, all of which are future subsidiaries.
Herring
Creek is a pharmaceutical research and development (“R&D”) firm that provides services to ST brands. In April 2021, ST
Brands entered into an agreement with Herring Creek to develop a synthetic CBD “cold crystal” molecule to be utilized as
a sweetener additive in CBD drinks that ST Brands seeks to manufacture and distribute through its strategic partners. The Company made
an advance payment of $120,000 to acquire minority interest in the future.
On
6/28/2021, ST brands entered into an agreement to acquire F-Squared Management. The specifics of the acquisition included ST Brands paying
F-Squared Management $1.5m by 6/28/2021 for a 49% interest in the company. To date, ST Brands has remitted $315,000 to F-Squared Management
as part of this transaction and owes an additional $1,185,000 to complete the acquisition.
Investments
in unconsolidated affiliates are accounted for under the cost or the equity method of accounting, as appropriate. The Company accounts
for investments in limited partnerships or limited liability corporations, whereby the Company owns a minimum of 5% of the investee’s
outstanding voting stock, under the equity method of accounting. These investments are recorded at the amount of the Company’s
investment and adjusted each period for the Company’s share of the investee’s income or loss, and dividends paid. As investments
accounted for under the cost method do not have readily determinable fair values, the Company only estimates fair value if there are
identified events or changes in circumstances that could have a significant adverse effect on the investment’s fair value.
Note
5 – Equity
Restricted
Stock Grants
The
Company estimated the fair value of restricted stock grants at $0.50 per share based on the price at which the Company issued common
shares for cash in 2019 and not based on the amount that shares were trading for on the OTC “Pink” market since shares were
thinly traded on the market from August 2019 to June 30, 2021 when the equity instruments were granted.
The
table below summarizes the activity of the restricted stock during the six months ended June 30, 2021:

For
the six months ended June 30, 2021 the compensation costs include $1,811,619 of stock based compensation. No portion of the total compensation
cost was capitalized. The unrecognized compensation costs as of June 30, 2021 is $0. The Company recognized stock based compensation
expense using the straight line method and forfeitures are recognized as they occur. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company
wrote off the balance of unamortized, non-vested restricted stock because the Board modified the terms of the grants to accelerate vesting.
As a result, all outstanding share grants had fully vested as of June 30, 2021.
Other
Equity issuances:
There
were 6,636,580 restricted shares issued that vested immediately on the date issued. 5,336,580 shares were issued to the CEO and a board
member to convert a total of $160,097 in shareholder loans, 1,200,000 issued to a related party in consideration of interest owed by
the company on a related note payable, and 100,000 shares issued to a consultant as a bonus for services provided to the company.

Litigation
and Claims
The
Company may be involved in lawsuits and claims arising in the ordinary course of business from time to time. The Company reviews any
such legal proceedings and claims on an ongoing basis and follows appropriate accounting guidance when making accrual and disclosure
decisions. The Company establishes accruals for those contingencies where the incurrence of a loss is probable and can be reasonably
estimated, and it discloses the amount accrued and the amount of a reasonably possible loss in excess of the amount accrued, if such
disclosure is necessary for the Company’s financial statements not to be misleading. To estimate whether a loss contingency should
be accrued by a charge to income, the Company evaluates, among other factors, the degree of probability of an unfavorable outcome and
the ability to make a reasonable estimate of the amount of the loss. The Company does not record liabilities when the likelihood that
the liability has been incurred is probable, but the amount cannot be reasonably estimated. Based upon present information, the Company
determined that there were no matters that required an accrual as of June 30, 2021 or 2020, nor were there any asserted or unasserted
material claims for which material losses are reasonably possible.

with a maturity date of June 15, 2020 and interest of $4,167 per month. The note’s terms required that the Company issue 50,000
common shares, and allowed the note holder to convert the note into common shares at a conversion price of $0.50 per share. This note

agreement (“Second Convertible Note”), with a maturity date of June 17, 2021 and an interest rate of 8% per annum from the

Note
9 – Beneficial Conversion Feature
ASC
470-20 applies to convertible securities with beneficial conversion features that must be settled in stock and to those that give the
issuer a choice in settling the obligation in either stock or cash. ASC 470-20 requires that the beneficial conversion feature should
be valued at the commitment date at its intrinsic value; that being the difference between the conversion price and the fair market value
of the common stock into which the security is convertible, multiplied by the number of shares into which the security is convertible.
This amount is recorded as a debt discount and amortized over the life of the debt. ASC 470-20 further limits this amount to the proceeds
allocated to the convertible instrument.
The
effective conversion prices were compared to the market prices on the dates of each convertible note and they were deemed to be less
than the inception date fair value of the underlying common stock for the Second Convertible Note. The Company recognized a debt discount
as a reduction (contra-liability) to the Second and Fourth, and Fifth Convertible Notes with an increase to paid in capital. The debt
discounts are being amortized over the life of the notes. The Company recognized financing costs for charges by the lender for original
issue discounts and other applicable administrative costs, normally withheld from proceeds, which are being amortized as finance costs
over the life of the loan. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the unamortized beneficial conversion feature associated with our
convertible notes was $0 and $0, respectively.
During
the first quarter of 2021, an active market developed for the Company’s stock. Accordingly, the Company began recording the conversion
features of its convertible notes payable as embedded derivatives. As a result, the Company re-characterized the beneficial conversion
feature recorded on Note 4 as a discount related to the derivative liability, resulting in a decrease to additional paid in capital in
the amount of $150,000.
Note
10 - Derivatives
The
Company assessed its convertible notes for purposes of determining the associated embedded default derivatives. The Company relied on
ASC 820-10-35-37 Fair Value in Financial Instruments and ASC 815 Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.
The Company uses judgment in determining the fair value of derivative liabilities at the date of issuance and at every balance sheet
thereafter and in determining which valuation method is most appropriate for the instrument, the expected volatility, the implied risk-free
interest rate, as well as the expected dividend rate, if any.
During
the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company had convertible notes payable outstanding in which the conversion rate was variable and
undeterminable. The Company determined that the embedded conversion options met the definition of a derivative. The effective conversion
price was compared to the market price on the date of the note and was deemed to be less than the market value of underlying common stock
at the inception of the note. The Company recognized a debt discount on the notes as a reduction (contra-liability) to the Convertible
Notes Payable. The debt discounts are being amortized over the life of the notes. The Company recognized financing costs for charges
by the lender applicable administrative costs, normally withheld from proceeds, which are being amortized as finance costs over the life
of the loan.
The
Company evaluated the terms of the convertible notes in accordance with ASC Topic No. 815 - 40, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts
in Entity’s Own Stock and determined that the underlying is indexed to the Company’s common stock. The Company determined
that the conversion features meet the definition of a liability and therefore bifurcated the conversion feature and accounted for it
as a separate derivative liability. The Company then evaluated the conversion feature for the embedded conversion option. Since these
notes contain conversion price adjustment provisions (i.e. down round, true-up, or ratchet provisions), the Company determined that the
embedded conversion options met the definition of a derivative. The Monte Carlo model was used to estimate the fair values of the embedded
derivatives on the conversion features of our convertible notes. The values are based on simulating stock volatility, risk free interest
rates, and the conversion stock prices on the date of measurement.
The
Company is subject to significant cash penalties in the event that the Company defaults on its convertible notes. The default penalties
vary based on the type of default and range from incurring a default interest rate of 22% to a penalty of 50% of the amount due, to a
parity value based on the effective conversion of the note on the date of payment of the default and the maximum stock value during the
period between the default date and the settlement date. The Company determined that certain of the default provisions should be bifurcated
from the debt host and treated as a liability, since they involve the contingent payment of a substantial premium on the convertible
notes. The Company used a Monte Carlo model that values the embedded default derivatives based on simulating the stock price, the default
likelihood, and the default liability.
Fair
Value
ASC
825-10 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in
the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement
date. ASC 825-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize
the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 825-10 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair
value: Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 – Observable
inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; or other inputs that are observable or can
be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and Level 3 – Unobservable
inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing
models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires
significant judgment or estimation. The Company’s Level 3 liabilities consist of the derivative liabilities associated with the
convertible notes. At June 30, 2021, all of the Company’s derivative liabilities were categorized as Level 3 fair value liabilities.
If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization
is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
Level
3 Valuation Techniques
Financial
assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar
techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable. Level 3 financial liabilities consist of the derivative
liabilities for which there is no current market for these securities such that the determination of fair value requires significant
judgment or estimation. At the date of the original transaction, we valued the convertible note that contains down round provisions using
a Black-Scholes model, with the assistance of a valuation consultant, for which management understands the methodologies. This model
incorporates transaction details such as the Company’s stock price, contractual terms, maturity, risk free rates, as well as assumptions
about future financings, volatility, and holder behavior. ASC 825-10 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received
for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability
in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 825-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which
requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC
825-10 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets
for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar
assets or liabilities; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full
term of the assets or liabilities; and Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity
and that are financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques,
as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation. The Company’s Level
3 liabilities consist of the derivative liabilities associated with the convertible notes. At December 31, 2020, all of the Company’s
derivative liabilities were categorized as Level 3 fair value liabilities. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities
fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair
value measurement of the instrument.
