Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2024
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The terms “COSM,” “we,” the “Company,” the “Group” and “us” as used in this report refer to Cosmos Health Inc. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2024 and unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management of COSM, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024, or any other period. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (“Form 10-K”). The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 has been derived from the audited financial statements filed in our Form 10-K and is included for comparison purposes in the accompanying balance sheet.
Going Concern
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which contemplates the continuation of the Company as a going concern. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company had revenue of $
The Company’s revenues are not able to sustain its operations, and concerns exist regarding the Company’s ability to meet its obligations as they become due. The Company is subject to a number of risks to those of smaller commercial companies, including dependence on key individuals and products, the difficulties inherent in the development of a commercial market, the need to obtain additional capital, competition from larger companies, and other pharmaceutical and health care companies.
Management evaluated the above conditions which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern to determine if it can meet its obligations for the subsequent twelve months from the date of this filing. Management considered its ability to access future capital, curtail expenses if needed, expand product lines, and acquire new products.
Management’s plans include expansion of brand name products to the market, expanding the current product portfolio, and evaluating acquisition targets to expand distribution. Furthermore, the Company intends to vertically integrate the supply chain distribution network. During the period up to the issuance of this report the Company has signed multiple distribution agreements for its SPL products in Europe and Asia and a variety of contract manufacturing agreements though its subsidiary, CANA. Finally, the Company plans to access the capital markets further in order to raise additional funds through equity offerings. More specifically, management will consider postponing the repayment of its outstanding Trade Facility ($
Considering the above, management is of the view that substantial doubt exists for the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

During the prior year period, Cana had minimal operations as it was in financial difficulties and seeking for an investor.
Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Principles of Consolidation
Our consolidated accounts include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly owned subsidiaries, SkyPharm S.A., Decahedron Ltd., Cosmofarm S.A., Cana Laboratories Holdings (Cyprus) Limited and ZipDoctor Inc. The Group’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements reflect the consolidation of all entities in which the Company has control, as determined by the ability to direct the activities that significantly affect the entities’ economic performance. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Transactions in and Translations of Foreign Currency
The functional currency for the Greek subsidiaries of the Company (CANA Laboratories, Cosmofarm S.A. and SkyPharm SA) is EURO (€) and for the UK subsidiary (Decahedron Ltd) is GBP (£). ZipDoctor Inc. is a U.S. based entity. As a result, the financial statements of the subsidiaries (except for ZipDoctor Inc.) have been translated from the local currency into U.S. dollars using (i) year-end exchange rates for balance sheet accounts, and (ii) average exchange rates for the reporting period for all income statements accounts. Foreign currency translations gains and losses are reported as a separate component of the condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity and mezzanine equity.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. 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 Effects of War in the Ukraine
On February 24, 2022, Russian forces launched significant military action against Ukraine. There continues to be sustained conflict and disruption in the region, which is expected to endure for the foreseeable future. We do not conduct any commercial transactions with either Ukraine or Russia and the Company and, as such, is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to its estimates or judgments or a revision of the carrying value of its assets or liabilities as of the date of issuance of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Such political issues and conflicts could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition if they escalate in areas in which we do business. In addition, changes in and adverse actions by governments in foreign markets in which we do business could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Credit Losses
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses of Financial Instruments, which amends the requirement on the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. Furthermore, amendments ASU 2019-10 and ASU 2019-11 provided additional clarification for implementing ASU 2016-13. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2023, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2023, and the standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily through sales to its customers and the loans that it has provided. The Company assesses each customer’s/ borrower’s ability to pay, and a credit loss estimate by conducting a credit review which includes consideration of established credit rating, or an internal assessment of the customer’s creditworthiness based on an analysis of their payment history when a credit rating is not available. The Company monitors credit exposure through active review of customer balances. The Company’s expected loss methodology for accounts receivable is developed through consideration of factors including, but not limited to, historical collection experience, current customer credit ratings, current customer financial condition, current and future economic and market conditions, and age of the receivables. More specifically, the Company assesses a number of customers with significant long outstanding balances on an individual basis, applying different credit loss percentages to them, and subsequently summarizes the ones not included in the individual analysis, groups them based on their rating (decided based on the factors described above) and applies specific credit loss percentages to each group. The Company has elected to follow the simplified ECL approach. The charges related to credit losses are included in “General and administrative expenses” and are recorded in the period that the outstanding receivables are determined to be doubtful. Account balances are written-off against the allowance when they are deemed uncollectible.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
The Company maintains bank accounts in the United States denominated in U.S. Dollars, in Greece denominated in Euros, U.S. Dollars and Great Britain Pounds (British Pounds Sterling), and in Bulgaria denominated in Euros. The Company also maintains bank accounts in the United Kingdom, denominated in Euros and Great Britain Pounds (British Pounds Sterling).
Accounts Receivable, net
Accounts receivable are stated at their net realizable value. The allowance for doubtful accounts against gross accounts receivable reflects the best estimate of probable losses inherent in the receivables’ portfolio determined on the basis of historical experience, specific allowances for known troubled accounts and other currently available information. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $

Tax Receivables
The Company pays Value Added Tax (“VAT”) or similar taxes (“input VAT”), income taxes, and other taxes within the normal course of its business in most of the countries in which it operates related to the procurement of merchandise and/or services it acquires and/or on sales and taxable income. The Company also collects VAT or similar taxes on behalf of the government (“output VAT”) for merchandise and/or services it sells. If the output VAT exceeds the input VAT, this creates a VAT payable to the government. If the input VAT exceeds the output VAT, this creates a VAT receivable from the government. The VAT tax return is filed on a monthly basis offsetting the payables against the receivables. In observance of EU regulations for intra-EU cross-border sales, our subsidiaries in Greece, SkyPharm and Cosmofarm, do not charge VAT for sales to wholesale drug distributors registered in other European Union member states. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had a VAT net receivable balance of $

Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower-of-cost or net realizable value using the weighted average method. Inventory consists primarily of finished goods and packaging materials, i.e., packaged pharmaceutical products and the wrappers and containers they are sold in. A periodic inventory system is maintained by 100% count. Inventory is replaced periodically to maintain the optimum stock on hand available for immediate shipment.
The Company writes down inventories to net realizable value based on physical condition, expiration date, and current market conditions, as well as forecasted demand. The Company’s inventories are not highly susceptible to obsolescence. Many of the Company’s inventory items are eligible for return to our suppliers when pre-agreed product requirements, including, but not limited to, physical condition and expiration date, are not met. No significant judgments have been applied in estimating the selling price of our inventory.
Property and Equipment, net
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over the useful lives (except for leasehold improvements which are depreciated over the lesser of the lease term or the useful life) of the assets as follows:
| Estimated Useful Life | |||
Leasehold improvements and technical works |
| |||
Buildings |
|
|
| |
Vehicles |
| |||
Machinery |
| |||
Furniture, fixtures and equipment |
|
| ||
Computers and software |
|
Depreciation expense was $
Property and Equipment additions
Property and Equipment additions are recognized as assets when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the asset will flow to the entity and the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. Additions are initially measured at cost, which includes all costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to its working condition and location for its intended use. This may include purchase price, freight, installation, and any directly attributable professional fees. They are capitalized if their cost exceeds a certain threshold. The threshold is determined based on materiality considerations. Costs below the threshold are typically expensed as incurred. After initial recognition, additions are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is calculated systematically over the estimated useful life of the asset. They are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognized, and the carrying amount of the asset is adjusted accordingly. Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction, or production of qualifying assets, including Property and Equipment additions, are capitalized as part of the cost of those assets.

Goodwill and Intangibles, net
The Company periodically reviews the carrying value of intangible assets not subject to amortization, including goodwill, to determine whether impairment may exist. Goodwill and certain intangible assets are assessed annually, or when certain triggering events occur, for impairment using fair value measurement techniques. These events could include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, a decline in operating performance, competition, sale or disposition of a significant portion of the business, or other factors. First, under step 0, we determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying amount. Following, if step 0 fails, goodwill impairment is determined using a two-step process. The first step of the goodwill impairment test is used to identify potential impairment by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. The Company uses level 3 inputs and a discounted cash flow methodology to estimate the fair value of a reporting unit. A discounted cash flow analysis requires one to make various judgmental assumptions including assumptions about future cash flows, growth rates, and discount rates. The assumptions about future cash flows and growth rates are based on the Company’s budget and long-term plans. Discount rate assumptions are based on an assessment of the risk inherent in the respective reporting units. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired and the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination. That is, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of that unit (including any unrecognized intangible assets) as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination and the fair value of the reporting unit was the purchase price paid to acquire the reporting unit.
On December 19, 2018, as a result of the acquisition of Cosmofarm, the Company recorded $49,697 of goodwill.
Intangible assets with definite useful lives are recorded on the basis of cost and are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The Company uses a useful life of 5 years for an import/export license and a useful life of 10 years for the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical products licenses included in Note 4 as “Licenses”. A useful life of 10 years is also used for the platforms included in Note 4 as “Software” and the customer bases. The Company evaluates the remaining useful life of intangible assets annually to determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining amortization period. If the estimate of the intangible asset’s remaining useful life is changed, the remaining carrying amount of the intangible asset will be amortized prospectively over that revised remaining useful life. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, no revision to the remaining amortization period of the intangible assets was made.
Amortization expense was $
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with ASC 360-10, Long-lived Assets, property and equipment and intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the assets. Fair value is generally determined using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable.

Equity Method Investment
For those investments in common stock or in-substance common stock in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the investee, the investment is accounted for under the equity method. The Company records its share in the earnings of the investee and is included in “Equity earnings of affiliate” in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company assesses its investment for other-than-temporary impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment might not be recoverable and recognizes an impairment loss to adjust the investment to its then current fair value.
Investments in Equity Securities
Investments in equity securities are accounted for at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income (loss). Equity securities are classified as short-term or long-term based on the nature of the securities and their availability to meet current operating requirements. Equity securities that are readily available for sale in current operations are reported as a component of current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Equity securities that are not considered available for use in current operations would be reported as a component of long-term assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. For equity securities with no readily determinable fair value, the Company elects a measurement alternative to fair value. Under this alternative, the Company measures the investments at cost, less any impairment, and adjusted for changes resulting from observable price changes in transactions for identical or similar investments of the investee. The election to use the measurement alternative is made for each eligible investment.
As of June 30, 2024, investments consisted of
Fair Value Measurement
The Company applies ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, (“ASC 820”), for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC 820 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to existing generally accepted accounting principles that require the use of fair value measurements establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements.
ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, ASC 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized below:
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore developed using estimates and assumptions developed by us, which reflect those that a market participant would use.
In addition, ASC 825-10-25, Fair Value Option, (“ASC 825-10-25”), expands opportunities to use fair value measurements in financial reporting and permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The Company did not elect the fair value options for any of its qualifying financial instruments.

Our financials also included the following financial instruments as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023: cash, accounts receivable, inventory, prepaid expenses, loans receivable, accounts payable, notes payable and lines of credit. Except for the loans receivable which carry fixed interest rates, the carrying value of the remaining instruments, approximates fair value due to their short-term nature.
Customer Advances
The Company receives prepayments from certain customers for pharmaceutical products prior to those customers taking possession of the Company’s products. The Company records these receipts as current liabilities until it has met all the criteria for recognition of revenue including passing control of the products to its customer, at such point, the Company will reduce the customer advances balance and credit the Company’s revenues.
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), the Company uses a five-step model for recognizing revenue by applying the following steps:
| 1) | Identification of the Contract: The Company identifies a contract with a customer when it enters into an agreement that creates enforceable rights and obligations. |
| 2) | Identification of Performance Obligations: The Company identifies distinct performance obligations within each contract, which represent promises to transfer goods or services to the customer. |
| 3) | Determination of Transaction Price: The Company determines the transaction price, which represents the amount of consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to the customer, excluding any amounts collected on behalf of third parties. |
| 4) | Allocation of Transaction Price: The Company allocates the transaction price to each distinct performance obligation based on its standalone selling price. If the standalone selling price is not observable, the Company estimates it using an appropriate method. |
| 5) | Recognition of Revenue: Revenue is recognized when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring a promised good or service to the customer. This typically occurs at a point in time or over time, depending on the nature of the performance obligation. |
Wholesale revenue and sales of own branded nutraceutical and pharmaceutical products
The Company has contracts or signed partnership forms (usual in the wholesale sector of the pharma industry) with its customers, stipulating the enforceable rights and obligations. The Company is responsible for transferring the goods to the customer’s location, which represents its sole performance obligation. Thus, the transaction price, which is predetermined in most of the products sold, is exclusively allocated to this performance obligation. Revenue is recognized at a single point in time, which is upon issuance of the corresponding sales invoice. The Company has assessed the impact of the items invoiced but not delivered to the customer’s location as of December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2024, and deemed that it had no material effect.
Pharma manufacturing
The Company has active contracts with its customers, stipulating the enforceable rights and obligations. The Company is responsible for the manufacturing and the packaging of specific products assigned by its customers, which represents its performance obligations to which the Company allocates the transaction price determined. The customers are responsible for providing the raw materials to the Company. Revenue is recognized over a period of time, which is during the production and packaging period of the respective products. As of June 30, 2024, there were no products or batches of products for which the production or packaging phase was in progress.

Medihelm SA
Commencing from January 1, 2023, and pursuant to the agreement with Medihelm, the exclusive distributor of the Company’s own proprietary line of nutraceuticals, the Company considers the transaction price to be variable and records an estimate of the transaction price, subject to the constraint for variable consideration. The Company is basing the change in transaction price with the exclusive distributor through assessment of significant overdue receivables from the exclusive distributor, which the Company reassesses each reporting period. Through this assessment, the Company applied the “expected value” model under ASC 606-10-32-5 and had applied specific constraints to revenue due from the customer at the end of each reporting period. Following the application of the “expected value” model, the Company had deferred an amount of $397,000 and recorded it against the sales to Medihelm for the twelve months ended December 31, 2024. However, the Company assessed once more the trading relationship with Medihelm SA at year end and since no significant receipts had taken place up to the issuance of the report, the Company recorded an allowance for the total receivable amount not received up to the issuance date. More specifically a cumulative reserve of $
Stock-based Compensation
The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”) and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”) regarding its interpretation of ASC 718. ASC 718 requires the fair value of all stock-based employee compensation awarded to employees to be recorded as an expense over the related requisite service period. The Company values any employee or non-employee stock-based compensation at fair value using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.
The Company accounts for non-employee share-based awards in accordance with the measurement and recognition criteria of ASU 2018-07, “Compensation-Stock Compensation-Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.”
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, as required by the accounting standard for income taxes ASC 740. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis, as well as net operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company is liable for income taxes in Greece and the United Kingdom The corporate income tax rate is
We regularly review deferred tax assets to assess their potential realization and establish a valuation allowance for portions of such assets to reduce the carrying value if we do not consider it to be more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. Our review includes evaluating both positive (e.g., sources of taxable income) and negative (e.g., recent historical losses) evidence that could impact the realizability of our deferred tax assets. At June 30, 2024, we believe our United Kingdom and Greece deferred tax assets will not be realized, as such, we did not record a reversal on the full valuation approach we followed during the year ended December 31, 2023.
Leases
The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842. For all leases, the Company recognizes a right-of-use (ROU) asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet. The ROU asset represents the Company's right to use the underlying asset for the lease term, and the lease liability represents the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease, both measured at the present value of future lease payments. Lease payments are recognized as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the ROU asset are recognized separately in the income statement. Initial direct costs incurred by the Company in negotiating and securing leases are capitalized and amortized over the lease term on a straight-line basis. The assets and liabilities from operating and finance leases are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term using the Company’s secured incremental borrowing rates or implicit rates, when readily determinable. Short-term leases, which have an initial term of 12 months or less, are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company’s operating leases do not provide an implicit rate that can readily be determined. Therefore, we use a discount rate based on our incremental borrowing rate, which is determined using the average interest rate of our long-term debt on the date of inception.

Retirement and Termination Benefits
Under Greek labor law, employees are entitled to lump-sum compensation in the event of termination or retirement. The amount depends on the employee’s work experience and remuneration as of the day of termination or retirement. If an employee remains with the company until full-benefit retirement, the employee is entitled to a lump-sum equal to 40% of the compensation to be received if the employee were to be dismissed on the same day. The Company periodically reviews the uncertainties and judgments related to the application of the relevant labor law regulations to determine retirement and termination benefits obligations of its Greek subsidiaries. The Company has evaluated the impact of these regulations and has identified a potential retirement and termination benefits liability. The amount of the liability as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, was $
Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share
Basic income per share is calculated by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is calculated by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and, when dilutive, potential shares from stock options and warrants to purchase common stock, using the treasury stock method. In accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, the following table reconciles basic shares outstanding to fully diluted shares outstanding.

Accounting Standard Adopted
In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-06, Deferral of the Sunset Date of Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). Topic 848 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to transactions affected by reference rate (e.g., LIBOR) reform if certain criteria are met, for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The ASU deferred the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. The ASU is effective as of December 21, 2022 through December 31, 2024. We continue to evaluate transactions or contract modifications occurring as a result of reference rate reform and determine whether to apply the optional guidance on an ongoing basis. We adopted ASU 2022-06 during 2022. The Company adopted this ASU on June 30, 2023. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s accounting and disclosures.

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures. This ASU eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors that have adopted ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which was adopted on January 1, 2020. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. ASU 2022-02 also enhances the disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancing and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, the ASU amends the guidance on vintage disclosures to require entities to disclose current period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of ASC 326-20. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption of the ASU would be applied prospectively. Early adoption is also permitted, including adoption in an interim period. This ASU was adopted on January 1, 2023, which resulted in no cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This guidance is intended to enhance the transparency and decision-usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 address investor requests for enhanced income tax information primarily through changes to disclosure regarding rate reconciliation and income taxes paid both in the U.S. and in foreign jurisdictions. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis, with the option to apply the standard retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements disclosures.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting: Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This guidance expands public entities’ segment disclosures primarily by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items, and interim disclosures of a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The amendments are required to be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in an entity’s financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact it may have on its consolidated financial statements related disclosures.
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Loans receivable - related party
The balance of prepaid expenses due Doc Pharma as of December 31, 2022, had increased to €7,103,706 ($7,599,545), which was mainly attributable to the prepayments SkyPharm S.A. made in accordance with the CMO agreement and the extensive orders and sales of the SPL products the Company expects to achieve within 2023, mainly through its Amazon channels in the UK, Singapore, Canada and other countries. However, as the benefit from a significant portion of the prepaid balance would not have been realized within a 12-month period, the Company opted to secure a portion of the outstanding prepaid balance through a loan agreement.

On July 22, 2015, the National Medicines Agency approved the license of wholesale sale of pharmaceutical products under the name SkyPharm SA with set validity at five years and an expiration date of July 22, 2020. Subsequently, SkyPharm on June 15, 2020, legally and timely submitted the application for renewal of the wholesale license of pharmaceutical products to the National Medicines Agency. The National Medicines Agency did not respond, therefore the Company asked for an immediate decision on the renewal. Two months after the filing of the no. 3459 / 15.01.2021 letter and almost nine months after the no. 627615.06.2020 Company application for the renewal, the National Medicines Agency replied by rejecting the renewal request on March 9, 2021 (ref. 62769 / 20-25.02.2021). In addition, document No. 127351-16.12.2021 of EOF (Greek National Medicines Organization) to SkyPharm states that after an inspection of EOF at the premises of Doc Pharma, we did not have a wholesale license in violation of article 106 par. 1b and par. 1c of the ministerial decision D.YG3a / GP.32221 / 29-4-2019. The National Medicines Agency imposed a fine of €15,000 ($
There has been a payment request by the Greek court, which relates to a fine arising from Cosmofarm’s tax audit for financial year 2014. The law with no. 483/16.12.2020 was used by the court against Cosmofarm (the “defendant”). The defendant appealed against the decision using the law with no.11541/09.03.2021. This appeal was dismissed after 120 days from its submission to the court. Additionally, there had been an obligation for payment of additional tax and fines related to this matter in the amount of €91,652 ($
On January 25, 2023, a criminal case of dishonored checks against Cosmofarm’s customer Filippou, was heard at the Z’ Three-Member Misdemeanor Court of Athens, which was postponed to November 27, 2023, when the defendant was tried and found guilty.

On January 26, 2023, the appeal of the Company against Eleutheria Drakopoulou and decision 1389/2021of the Single-Member Court of First Instance of Athens was heard at the Athens Court of Appeal. The appeal was partially accepted. The Court ordered the return of the fee to the appellants, dismissed the action against the third defendant, Kozaris and accepted the action as regards the first and the second defendants (Kastrantas & Cosmofarm).
On October 23, 2023, a criminal case of dishonored checks against Cosmofarm’s customer Kafantaris was heard at the Sixth Single-Member Misdemeanor Court of Athens, which was postponed to January 26, 2024, when the defendant was convicted by decision no. 1599/2024.
In October 2023, the Company’s subsidiary, Cana Laboratories was approached by an Attorney at law on behalf of two clients which were requesting an amount of €39,211 as compensation for the value of 34.70 square meters in relation to an urban sprawl with respect to which an Act of Imputation had been issued by the department of Urban Planning. Our legal counsel’s response was that CANA was not obliged to accept the compensatory value agreed and suggested exploring out of court settlement. As of today, the clients’ Attorney at law has not come back with any suggestions.
Our subsidiary, Cana Laboratories, has two pending lawsuits against Euaggelismos Hospital for a total sum of EUR 526,436 due to unpaid bills. The court date for one of the two lawsuits is set for December 11, 2024, and for the other one has not yet been set. The opinion of our legal advisor is that the collection of the total sum by the Company is almost certain.
Our subsidiary, Cana Laboratories, has an unasserted claim against Papanikolaou Hospital for a total sum of EUR 89,300 due to unpaid bills, which will be asserted through a lawsuit. The opinion of our legal advisor is that the collection of the sum by the Company is almost certain.
A lawsuit dated April 5, 2018 against the Company’s subsidiary Cana Laboratories by a former employee before the Athens court of instance was initially heard on October 12, 2018. The former employee was seeking that the termination of her employment contract to be considered null and void and was requesting compensation for late wages and moral damages. Following numerous appeals, Judgment No. 1192/2024 was issued on September 26, 2023, which as explicitly stated by our legal counsel, requires CANA to rehire the former employee with the threat of a penalty of €200 for each day of non-compliance. As informed by our legal counsel, in order for the penalty to be effective the former employee should file a new lawsuit against CANA and request to get rehired. In case CANA denies employment, then the penalty should be in effect. As of today, we have not received neither a lawsuit nor any request of employment by the former employee.
Advisory Agreements
On July 1, 2021, the Company entered into a two-year advisory agreement with a third party (the “Consultant”) for advisory and consulting services related to the Company’s intention to become listed on Nasdaq. Peter Goldstein, a then director of the Company is a principal of the Consultant.

Overview
Summary
We are an international healthcare company with a proprietary line of nutraceuticals and distributor of branded and generic pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, OTC medications and medical devices. The Company uses a differentiated operating model based on a lean, nimble and decentralized structure, with an emphasis on acquisitions of established companies and our ability to maintain better pharmaceutical assets than others. This operating model and the execution of our corporate strategy are designed to enable the Company to achieve sustainable growth and create added value for our shareholders. In particular, we look to enhance our pharmaceutical and over-the-counter product lines by acquiring or licensing rights to additional products and regularly evaluate selective company acquisition opportunities. The Company, through its subsidiaries, is operating within the pharmaceutical industry and in order to compete successfully in the healthcare industry, must demonstrate that its products offer medical benefits as well as cost advantages. Currently, most of the products that the Company is trading, compete with other products already in the market in the same therapeutic category, and are subject to potential competition from new products that competitors may introduce in the future.

Risks
Supply chain disruption is a growing concern for the European pharmaceutical industry as it increasingly looks to cut costs by relying on ‘emerging markets’, where standards can be lower in terms of compliance, ethics and health and safety.
Hikes in the price of medicine and their impact on the sustainability of the healthcare systems are garnering more and more attention. European regulators are willing to play their part in safeguarding continued access to safe and effective medicines. Regulators can speed up the approval of branded pharmaceuticals and biosimilars to boost competition and drive down prices.
Cuts in healthcare spending keep occurring since the financial crises of the late of 2000s. Europe’s slow recovery has been uneven, with austerity and economic uncertainty, especially in the EU’s poorer member states, such as Greece.

Results of Operations
Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023
Revenue and net loss
The Company had revenue of $13,206,717 and $12,363,429 (an increase of 6.82%) for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively and $27,791,190 and $24,713,206 (an increase of 12.45%) for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Revenue increased overall, compared to the prior periods, and the increase in the three and six-month periods is mainly attributed to the wholesale revenue stream which was further increased with the enhancement of the overall customer base along with the contribution of CANA’s acquisition. The Company had a net loss of $2,590,711 on revenue of $13,206,717 versus a net loss of $981,530 on revenue of $12,363,429 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively and net loss of $4,457,401 on revenue of $27,791,190 versus a net loss of $1,441,393 on revenue of $24,713,206 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in net loss for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 compared to the 2023 period of $3,016,008 was due to the extraordinary 2023 items such as the gain on debt extinguishment of $1,910,770 and the bargain purchase gain of $1,633,842. The decrease in net loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 compared to the three-month period ended March 31, 2023 is mainly attributable to the bargain purchase gain of $1,633,842 recorded in 2023.
Cost of Goods Sold
The Company had costs of goods sold of $12,349,469 versus $11,416,595 (an increase of 8.96%) for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively and $25,690,316 versus $22,809,295 (an increase of 12.63%) for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in cost of goods sold is a consequence of the increased sales volume of the wholesale revenue stream compared to the nutraceuticals one, given that the wholesale stream has significantly lower gross profit margins and of the overall revenue increase.
Our future revenue growth is expected to continue to be affected by various factors such as industry growth trends, including drug utilization, the introduction of new innovative brand therapies, the likely increase in the number of branded pharmaceutical products that will be available over the next few years’ price increases and price deflation, general economic conditions, including the effects of the current conflict in the Ukraine, the coronavirus in the United Kingdom and the member states of European Union, competition within the industry, customer consolidation, changes in pharmaceutical manufacturer pricing and distribution policies and practices, increased downward pressure on government and other third party reimbursement rates to our customers, and changes in government rules and regulations.
Gross Profit
The Company had gross profit of $767,248 versus $946,834 (a decrease of 18.97%) for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively and $2,100,874 versus $1,903,911 (an increase of 10.35%) for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in gross profit for the three -month period is attributable to the significantly decreased sales of SkyPharm’s nutritional supplements, and the decrease in CANA’s pharma manufacturing stream along with a drop in Decahedron’s sales. Since all of them are a high margin revenue streams, this contributed to the decreased gross profit for the period. The increase in the six-month period is in accordance with the increase in revenue and cost of goods sold.
Operating Expenses
The Company had general and administrative costs of $1,390,525 and $2,000,151, salaries and wage expenses of $1,454,862 and $1,077,672, sales and marketing expenses of $110,813 and $318,061 and depreciation and amortization expense of $313,074 and $127,415 for a loss from operations of $2,502,026 and a loss from operations of $2,576,465 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The operating expenses remained relatively stable overall (a decrease of 7.21% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2024). General and administrative costs decreased by 30.48% due to the cash bonuses awarded to management in 2023. The salaries and wages increased by 35% which is mainly attributable to the addition of CANA and the relevant payroll costs, once all employees remained with the Company following its acquisition on June 30, 2023. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2024 of $185,659 (145.71%) is in accordance with the increase in PP&E (purchase of CANA’s & Cosmofarm’s facilities) and intangible assets (purchase of pharmaceutical and nutraceutical licenses).

Table of Contents |
For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company had general and administrative costs of $2,808,663 and $4,089,165 salaries and wage expenses of $2,713,041 and $2,027,123, sales and marketing expenses of $284,443 and $785,324 and depreciation and amortization expense of $632,861 and $229,936 for a loss from operations of $4,338,134 and a loss from operations of $5,227,637, respectively. All variances for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 in both absolute terms and in terms of percentages are similar to the ones of the three-month periods and are attributable to identical factors.
Other Income (Expense)
The Company had interest expense related to notes payable and lines of credit of $342,446 and $244,135 versus $511,118 and $378,508 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in interest expense of 40.27% and 35.03% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively is attributable to the increased floating rates of the Company’s notes and lines of credits in 2024 (Euribor, Libor and Euro Short Term rate).
Interest income amounted to $102,030 and $261,269 versus $207,795 and $444,685 for the three and months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively and the decrease is attributable to both the decreased outstanding balances of the Company’s Loans Receivable and Loans Receivable from related parties and the fact that the Company had interest income arising from treasury bills in the 2023 comparative periods.
The other income, net recorded in the 6-month period ended June 30, 2024, of $162,519 mostly relates to write-offs of liabilities of our dormant subsidiary Cana Laboratories Holdings (Cyprus) Limited (“Cana”) arising from the past which had no substance and thus written off. The corresponding other income amounts in the three-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 of $29,305 and $34,477, respectively, primarily relate to prior period income/(expenses) of the Greek subsidiaries.
Additionally, a gain on debt extinguishment relating to the write-off of a share settled debt obligation and the forgiveness of a notes payable balance for a total gain of $1,910,770 was recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2023. Finally, the Company has recorded a bargain purchase gain of $1,633,842 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. The bargain purchase gain recorded is related solely to the gain recognized upon acquisition of Cana. No equivalent extraordinary items were included in the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024.
Foreign currency translation adjustment, net
The Company had a foreign currency translation adjustment gain of $176,591 and $775,867 versus gains of $83,188 and $419,651, attributable to the negative movement of the exchange rates during the three and six-months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and a net comprehensive loss of $2,767,302 and $5,233,268 versus a loss of $898,342 versus and $1,021,742 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The increase in comprehensive loss apart from the unrealized currency movements derives from the extraordinary items recorded in the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and described in “Other Income (Expense)” section above (gain on debt extinguishment and bargain purchase gain.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2024, the Company had working capital of $8,593,711 compared to $12,285,310 as of December 31, 2023.
The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $343,509 versus $3,833,195 as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The Company had net cash used in operating activities of $4,622,989 and $12,064,068 for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company has devoted substantially all of its cash resources to expand through organic business growth and has incurred significant general and administrative expenses in order to enable the financing and growth of its business and operations. The increase is attributable to the significant outflows to suppliers due to change in payment terms in addition to the material prepayments for the purchase and production of nutraceutical products.
The Company had net cash used provided by investing activities of $242,404 and net cash used in investing activities $8,447,679 during the six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the net cash used in investing activities was mainly attributable to the outflow of consideration transferred through the Cana acquisition, the purchase of ZipDoctor Inc, the purchase of Bikas customer base, the purchase of a list of pharmaceutical licenses and the purchase of Cosmofarm’s warehouse facilities.

The Company had net cash provided by financing activities of $746,610 versus $2,058,614 during the six months ended June 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company received proceeds from lines of credit of $13,034,203 and payments of lines of credit of $12,342,152, for a net increase on the lines of credit of $692,051. The significant higher inflows arising from financing activities in 2023 was mainly attributable to the receipt of the $4,750,107 subscription receivable, due from December’s 2022 offering. However, the Company repaid $1,372,976 of the outstanding notes payable during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, versus $549,946 of debt repayments within the six-month period ended June 30, 2024. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, the Company raised additional equity funds through a Baby Shelf supplement to its Registration Statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-267550) filed with the SEC on February 29 and March 7, 2024. More specifically, the Company sold 901,488 shares of common stock for gross proceeds of $649,039.
We anticipate using cash in our bank account as of June 30, 2024, cash generated from debt or equity financing, from investing activities or from management loans to the extent that funds are available to do so to conduct our business in the upcoming year. Management is not obligated to provide these or any other funds. If we fail to meet these requirements, we may lose the qualification for quotation and our securities would no longer trade on Nasdaq Capital Market. Further, as a consequence we would fail to satisfy our reporting obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and investors would then own stock in a company that does not provide the disclosure available in quarterly and annual reports filed with the SEC and investors may have increased difficulty in selling their stock as we will be non-reporting.
Going Concern
The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which contemplates the continuation of the Company as a going concern. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company had revenue of $27,791,190, net loss of $4,457,401 and net cash used in operations of $4,622,989. Additionally, as of June 30, 2024, the Company had positive working capital of $8,593,711, an accumulated deficit of $96,101,634, and stockholders’ equity of $32,119,574. It is management’s opinion that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the date of this filing.
The Company’s revenues are not able to sustain its operations, and concerns exist regarding the Company’s ability to meet its obligations as they become due. The Company is subject to a number of risks to those of smaller commercial companies, including dependence on key individuals and products, the difficulties inherent in the development of a commercial market, the need to obtain additional capital, competition from larger companies, and other pharmaceutical and health care companies.
Management evaluated the above conditions which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern to determine if it can meet its obligations for the subsequent twelve months from the date of this filing. Management considered its ability to access future capital, curtail expenses if needed, expand product lines, and acquire new products.
Management’s plans include expansion of brand name products to the market, expanding the current product portfolio, and evaluating acquisition targets to expand distribution. Furthermore, the Company intends to vertically integrate the supply chain distribution network. During the period up to the issuance of this report the Company has signed multiple distribution agreements for its SPL products in Europe and Asia and a variety of contract manufacturing agreements though its subsidiary, CANA. Finally, the Company plans to access the capital markets further in order to raise additional funds through equity offerings. More specifically, management will consider postponing the repayment of its outstanding Trade Facility ($1,606,650 balance as of June 30, 2024), intends to make substantial efforts to receive additional debt financing through its subsidiary, Cosmofarm SA, and plans to raise additional equity funds through utilizing its outstanding warrants. Up to the issuance of its consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company has sold 901,488 shares of common stock for net proceeds of $629,426. Moreover, the Company’s management is considering of postponing certain repayments of suppliers and creditors. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described herein and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations.
Considering the above, management is of the view that substantial doubt exists for the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Plan of Operation in the Next Twelve Months
Specifically, our plan of operations for the next twelve months is as follows:
We assess the foreseeable development of the Company as being positive. Over the medium term we expect to further expand our market share. However, during the course of further organizational optimization there may be associated extraordinary additional costs.
Our plan for our own branded nutraceuticals is to enlarge our portfolio up to 150 SKUs by the end of 2023, including more basic line formulas to cover more customer needs of any age, advanced formulations, formulas based on herbs and further clinical studies with R&D for further products. Our plan for geographic expansion in distributing and market penetration in the EU, Asia, USA and Canada is based on exclusive distributors, wholesalers, e-commerce, and development of franchising model, alliances and acquisitions of nutraceutical companies.
In addition, our plan for branded pharmaceuticals is geographic expansion across the world, especially in the EU and UK, as well as in other countries with fast registration and developed markets with liberalized OTC policies for online pharmacies and supermarkets. We also intend to enhance our exclusive distribution rights with a growing basis of cooperating partners whilst purchasing generic, biosimilar drugs and OTC licenses. We also intend to enhance our product expectance by registered copyrights and trademarks in all OTC drugs. In addition, we remain committed to strategic research and development across each business unit with a particular focus on assets with inherently lower risk profiles and clearly defined governmental regulatory pathways.
Our plan for our full line wholesale is to expand in the Greek territory, enlarge our customer portfolio and integrate of established sales network of pharmacies through the use of B2B and B2C e-commerce platforms and exclusive distributors. We are also aiming in increasing the exports of branded pharmaceuticals as we focus on higher profit margins categories (OTC and VMS), deliver 3PL (third-party logistics) services to pharma companies, put in force loyalty programs, provide added value services to pharmacies and emergency deliveries to VIP customers. The Company will evaluate and, where appropriate, execute on opportunities to expand its network of pharmacies and products in areas that it believes will offer above average growth characteristics and attractive margins.
The Company is growing its business through organic growth, market penetration, geographic expansion and acquisitions which would add value to its business and its shareholders. The Company is also committed to pursuing various forms of business development; this can include trading, alliances, joint ventures and dispositions. Moreover, it hopes to continue to build on its portfolio of pharmaceutical products and expand its OTC and nutraceutical product portfolio. Thus, the Company is developing a sound sales distribution network specializing in its own branded nutraceutical products.
The Company’s main objective is expanding the business operations of its subsidiaries by concentrating its efforts on becoming an international pharmaceutical Company. The Company views its business development activity as an enabler of its strategies, and it seeks to generate earnings growth and enhance shareholder value by pursuing a disciplined, strategic, and financial approach to evaluating business development opportunities. Under these principles the Company assesses businesses and assets as part of its regular, ongoing portfolio review process and continues to consider trading development activities for its businesses. The Company’s objective is the optimization of operating expenses across all entities without compromising the quality of the Company’s services and products.
Changes in the behavior and spending patterns of purchasers of pharmaceutical and healthcare products and services, including delaying medical procedures, rationing prescription medications, reducing the frequency of doctor visits, and foregoing healthcare insurance coverage, may impact the Company’s business.
The pharmaceutical sector offers a large growth potential within the European pharmaceutical market if service, price and quality are strictly directed towards the customer requirements. The Company will continue to encounter competition in the market by product, service, reliability, and a high level of quality. On the procurement side, the Company can access a wide range of supply possibilities. To minimize business risks, the Company diversifies its sources of supply all over Europe. It secures its high-quality demands through careful supplier qualification and selection, as well as active suppliers’ system management.

Strategic Plan
Our strategic plan, which strikes a balance between growth and sustainability, emphasizes synergies, vertical integration, operational efficiencies, R&D, brand expansion, and the global growth of our distribution network and facilities.
We intend to continue to pursue active ongoing acquisitions. In fact, many of our acquisitions entail exploring opportunities, with discounted assets through business combinations or joint ventures, all to enhance our distribution network. We will expand our R&D division which is a platform and incubator to develop new patented pharmaceuticals and proprietary innovative nutraceutical products. To foster organic growth, we will enhance our business development and marketing efforts, pursue global expansion via prominent retailers, pharmacies and e-commerce platforms, and recapture lost markets such as the infant and baby care categories. In addition, we will invest in the expansion of our production capacity and global network of facilities to boost sales of our brands, engage in contract manufacturing with large multinational pharmaceutical companies, produce pharma grade ethanol for hospitals, and expand into new large markets capitalizing on our comparative advantages. Last but not least, we aim to strategically invest in key personnel, from seasoned export managers to highly skilled scientists, to ensure we have the necessary expertise at our fingertips.
Organic Growth
Proprietary Portfolio of Branded Products: A bright spot so far in 2024 is the strong demand for our branded nutraceuticals, as we aspire to transform them into global brands. Our products have received very positive feedback at leading events like Arab Health in Dubai, Infarma in Barcelona, Vitafoods in Geneva, and Pharmacy Show in Birmingham.
Sky Premium Life®: We are selling Sky Premium Life products in an increasing number of countries through pharmacies, retail chains, and online platforms. Among our prominent retailers is Holland & Barrett. With over 1,600 stores in 18 countries across the world, it is not only Europe's largest health and wellbeing retailer but also one of the world's largest, generating about $1 billion in annual revenue. Additionally, our products are available online through platforms like eBay and Amazon in the UK, Canada, the US, Germany, France, Spain, and Singapore. We are investing in our infrastructure, expanding our production capacity to accommodate increasing volumes, accelerating our efforts to broaden our distribution network, and planning to penetrate new major markets. This is boosted by strategic collaborations like the one announced with C.A. PAPAELLINAS Group, a market leader with an extensive distribution network throughout Cyprus. PAPAELLINAS will represent and distribute Sky Premium Life, not only in Holland & Barrett stores but also in pharmacies throughout Cyprus.
Mediterranation®: Building upon the success of Sky Premium Life, we also launched Mediterranation, our premium food supplements brand. Inspired by the Mediterranean way of life, renowned for its healthy food, sunny climate, and longevity, Mediterranation utilizes organic herbs and plant extracts, such as dittany of Crete, oregano, mastic, and kritamos from the Mediterranean region. All of our products are manufactured under strict pharmaceutical standards and adhere to GMP protocols.
Bio-Bebe® and C-Sept®/C-Scrub: Among Cana's many valuable assets, Cosmos Health also obtained a proprietary portfolio of pharmaceutical, dermocosmetic, antiseptic, and food supplement branded products. These include, among others: Bio-Bebe, an organic infant care and nutrition brand, which we are in the process of relaunching. This presents us with a great opportunity to enter the lucrative global baby food market that, according to Fortune Business Insights, is worth $102.90 billion per year. C-Sept, an antiseptic brand, which we are expanding with the launch of the new C-Scrub Wash 4% CHG Biocide. We are well positioned to capitalize on the global antiseptic and disinfectant market that, according to Grand View Research, is worth $29 billion per year.

While the Company intends to pursue these milestones, there may be circumstances where for valid business reasons or due to factors beyond the control of the Company, a reallocation of efforts may be necessary or advisable.
The Company intends to spend the funds available to strengthen working capital, inventories, intangible assets, acquisitions, research and development, sales and marketing expenses. Due to the uncertain nature of the industry in which the Company operates, projects may be frequently reviewed and reassessed. Accordingly, while it is currently intended by management that the available funds will be expended as set forth above, actual expenditures may in fact differ from these amounts and allocations.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of June 30, 2024, there were no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies
In December 2001, the SEC requested that all registrants list their most “critical accounting polices” under the Management’s Discussion and Analysis section. The SEC indicated that a “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results, and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.
Revenue Recognition: The Company adopted Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers on January 1, 2018. As a result, it has changed its accounting policy for revenue recognition as detailed in Note 2.
Foreign Currency. Assets and liabilities of all foreign operations are translated at period-end rates of exchange, and the statements of operations are translated at the average rates of exchange for the period. Gains or losses resulting from translating foreign currency financial statements are accumulated in a separate component of stockholders’ equity until the entity is sold or substantially liquidated. Gains or losses from foreign currency transactions (transactions denominated in a currency other than the entity’s local currency) are included in net (loss) earnings.
Income Taxes. The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, as required by the accounting standard for income taxes, ASC 740. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis, as well as net operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company is liable for income taxes in Greece and the United Kingdom. The corporate income tax rate is 22% in Greece (tax losses are carried forward for five years effective January 1, 2013) and 25% in United Kingdom. Losses may also be subject to limitation under certain rules regarding change of ownership.
We regularly review deferred tax assets to assess their potential realization and establish a valuation allowance for portions of such assets to reduce the carrying value if we do not consider it to be more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. Our review includes evaluating both positive (e.g., sources of taxable income) and negative (e.g., recent historical losses) evidence that could impact the realizability of our deferred tax assets.

We recognize the impact of an uncertain tax position in our financial statements if, in management’s judgment, the position is not more-likely-than-not sustainable upon audit based on the position’s technical merits. This involves the identification of potential uncertain tax positions, the evaluation of applicable tax laws and an assessment of whether a liability for an uncertain tax position is necessary. We operate and are subject to audit in multiple taxing jurisdictions.
We record interest and penalties related to income taxes as a component of interest and other expense as incurred, respectively.
Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted ASC 740 “Accounting for Income Taxes” as of its inception. Pursuant to ASC 740, the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in this financial statement because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.
The Company has net operating loss carry-forwards in our parent, Cosmos Health Inc., which are applicable to future taxable income in the United States (if any). Additionally, the Company has income tax liabilities in the United Kingdom. The income tax assets and liabilities are not able to be netted. We therefore reserve the income tax assets applicable to the United States but recognize the income tax liabilities in Greece and the United Kingdom. Losses may also be subject to limitation under certain rules regarding change of ownership.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company follows ASC 310 to estimate the allowance for doubtful accounts. Pursuant to FASB ASC paragraph 310-10-35-9, losses from uncollectible receivables shall be accrued when both of the following conditions are met: (a) information available before the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued (as discussed in Section 855-10-25) indicates that it is probable that an asset has been impaired at the date of the financial statements, and (b) the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Those conditions may be considered in relation to individual receivables or in relation to groups of similar types of receivables. If the conditions are met, accrual shall be made even though the receivables that are uncollectible may not be identifiable. The Company reviews individually each trade receivable for collectability and performs on-going credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based upon payment history and the customer’s current credit worthiness, as determined by the review of their current credit information; and determines the allowance for doubtful accounts based on historical write-off experience, customer specific facts and general economic conditions that may affect a client’s ability to pay. Bad debt expense is included in general and administrative expenses, if any.
Inventory Reserves
Our merchandise inventories are made up of finished goods and are valued at the lower of cost or market using the weighted-average cost method. Average cost includes the direct purchase price, net of vendor allowances and cash discounts, of merchandise inventory. We record valuation reserves on an annual basis for merchandise damage and defective returns, merchandise items with slow-moving or obsolescence exposure and merchandise that has a carrying value that exceeds market value. These reserves are estimates of a reduction in value to reflect inventory valuation at the lower of cost or market. The reserve for merchandise returns is based upon the determination of the historical net realizable value of products sold from our returned goods inventory or returned to vendors for credit. Our reserve for merchandise returns includes amounts for returned product on-hand as well as for new merchandise on-hand that we estimate will ultimately become returned goods inventory after being sold based on historical return rates.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
Not applicable. A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Securities Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective due to material weaknesses stated below:
| · | The Company has a lack of proper segregation of duties. |
|
|
|
| · | The Company’s internal control structure lacks multiple levels of review and oversight and does not have appropriate IT General Controls (ITGCs) for the applications used in the Financial Reporting process, caused by lack of design of relevant controls and overall IT risk management. |
We are in the process of remediating all material weaknesses present in our internal controls and we plan to have completed the remediation by December 31, 2024.
- The Company has a lack of proper segregation of duties.
We are in the process of updating the organizational chart in order to reallocate roles among personnel and emphasize sharing the responsibilities of key business processes by distributing the discrete functions of these processes to multiple people and departments.
- The Company’s internal control structure lacks multiple levels of review and oversight and does not have appropriate IT General Controls (ITGCs) for the applications used in the Financial Reporting process, caused by lack of design of relevant controls and overall IT risk management.
We are in the process of developing multiple levels of review based on job responsibilities and level of personnel. For example, management reviews whether the bank reconciliations are being prepared on a timely basis by the preparer and whether there are discrepancies between the general ledger and the bank statements. Another example is the review of management accounting information by the CFO and his authorization for material transactions and adjustments. Furthermore, we are in the process of assessing a new financial reporting application that will be used by all the companies of the Group and would be able to support, process financially relevant information, provide financially relevant reporting and house financially relevant interfaces and application controls in order for us to more efficiently establish IT General Controls to a single and more reliable application.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Our Audit Committee is in the process of evaluating our existing controls and procedures, while communicating with the Management on quarterly basis.
Audit Committee
We have a separately designated standing audit committee, which is appointed by the Board of Directors of Cosmos Health Inc. On April 28, 2022, Dr. Anastasios Aslidis was elected to serve on the Board of Directors and was appointed as a chair of the Audit Committee. Our three independent directors, Anastasios Aslidis, John Hoidas and Demetrios Demetriades serve on the Audit Committee. The primary function of the committee is to assist the Board of Directors in overseeing (1) the financial reporting and accounting processes of the Company, and (2) the financial statements audits of the Company. The Committee also prepares a written report to be included in the annual proxy statement of the Company pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations of the “SEC”. In furtherance of these purposes, the Committee shall maintain direct communication among the Company’s independent auditors and the Board of Directors. The independent auditors and any other registered public accounting firm engaged in preparing or issuing an audit report or performing other audit review or attest services for the Company shall report directly to the Committee and are ultimately accountable to the Committee and the Board of Directors.
In discharging its oversight role, the Committee is authorized to investigate any matter brought to its attention with full access to all books, records, facilities and personnel of the Company. The Committee shall have the sole authority to retain at the Company’s expense outside legal, accounting or other advisors to advise the Committee and to receive appropriate funding, as determined by the Committee, from the Company for the payment of the compensation of such advisors and for the payment of ordinary administrative expenses of the Committee that are necessary to carry out its duties. The Committee may request any officer or employee of the Company or the Company’s outside counsel or independent auditors to attend a meeting of the Committee or to meet with any member of, or advisors to, the Committee. The Committee may also meet with the Company’s investment bankers or financial analysts who follow the Company.
The Committee shall meet no less frequently than four times per year, with additional meetings as circumstances warrant. The Committee shall also meet periodically with management, the internal auditors, if any, and the independent auditors in separate executive sessions. The Committee shall record the minutes of all such meetings and shall submit the minutes of its meetings to, or discuss the matters deliberated at each meeting with, the Board of Directors. The Company’s chief financial or accounting officer shall function as the management liaison officer to the Committee.
