Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Jupiter Wellness, Inc., a Florida corporation, Magical Beasts, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company and SRM Entertainment, Limited, a Hong Kong private limited company. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”), and it 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 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US 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 expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash and equivalents for purposes
of the statement of cash flows. There were
Inventory
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost or market. The Company periodically reviews the value of items in inventory and provides write-downs
or write-offs of inventory based on its assessment of market conditions. Write-downs and write-offs are charged to cost of goods sold.
Inventory is based upon the average cost method of accounting. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company had no write-downs
or write-offs. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company determined that certain of our inventory items were either slow moving,
expired or discontinued. As a result, the Company wrote-off a total of $
Investments Held-to-Maturity
Investments that the Company’s management has the “positive intent and ability” to hold through maturity are classified and accounted for as hold-to-maturity investments (“HTM”). HTM investments are carried at amortized cost in the financial statements. For investments classified as HTM, no unrealized gains and losses will be recognized in financial statements.
Trading Securities
Securities that the Company intends to sell are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are carried at fair value with gains and losses recognized in current period earnings.
Segment Reporting
The
Company has
Net income (loss) per common share is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. If applicable, diluted earnings per share assume the conversion, exercise or issuance of all common stock instruments such as options, warrants, convertible securities and preferred stock, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share. As such, options, warrants, convertible securities, and preferred stock are not considered in the calculations, as the impact of the potential common shares would be to decrease the loss per share.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates its revenue from the sale of its products directly to the end user or through a distributor (collectively the “customers”).
The Company recognizes revenues by applying the following steps in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”). Under ASC 606, revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements:
| ● | identify the contract with a customer; | |
| ● | identify the performance obligations in the contract; | |
| ● | determine the transaction price; | |
| ● | allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and | |
| ● | recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied. |
| F-7 |
The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied when goods or products are shipped on a FOB shipping point basis as title passes when shipped. Our products are generally paid in advance of shipment or standard net 30 days and we offer no specific right of return, refund or warranty related to our products except for cases of defective products of which there have been none to date.
Accounts Receivable and Credit Risk
Accounts receivable are generated from sales of the Company’s products. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful collections, which is based upon a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information, and existing economic conditions. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized allowance for doubtful collections.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We evaluate long-lived assets (including intangible assets) for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. An asset is considered impaired if its carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flow the asset is expected to generate.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill is tested for impairment at a minimum on an annual basis. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level by first performing a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If the reporting unit does not pass the qualitative assessment, then the reporting unit’s carrying value is compared to its fair value. The fair values of the reporting units are estimated using market and discounted cash flow approaches. Goodwill is considered impaired if the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value. The discounted cash flow approach uses expected future operating results. Failure to achieve these expected results may cause a future impairment of goodwill at the reporting unit.
We
conducted an evaluation of our goodwill as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and there was
Intangible assets consist of patents and trademarks, purchased customer contracts, purchased customer and merchant relationships, purchased trade names, purchased technology, and non-compete agreements. Intangible assets are amortized over the period of estimated benefit using the straight-line method and estimated useful lives ranging from one to twenty years. No significant residual value is estimated for intangible assets. We evaluate long-lived assets (including intangible assets) for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. An asset is considered impaired if its carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flow the asset is expected to generate.
The
Company’s evaluation of its long-lived assets resulted in an impairment expense of $
Foreign Currency Translation
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate at the balance sheet date, while revenue and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rates prevailing during the period. Equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates. Cumulative gains and losses from foreign currency transactions and translation for the six months June 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022 were not material.
Research and Development
The
Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 730-10, Research
and Development (“ASC 730-10”). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred.
Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and developments costs are expensed
when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved. Company-sponsored research and development costs
related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred. The Company incurred research and development expenses
of $
Stock Based Compensation
The Company recognizes compensation costs to employees under FASB Accounting Standards Codification 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share based compensation arrangements include stock options and warrants. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.
On October 24, 2018, the inception date, the Company adopted ASU No. 2018-07 “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” These amendments expand the scope of Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (which currently only includes share-based payments to employees) to include share-based payments issued to non-employees for goods or services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees and employees will be substantially aligned.
| F-8 |
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.
ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition. Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements. Since the Company was incorporated on October 24, 2018, the evaluation was performed for 2018 tax year which would be the only period subject to examination. The Company believes that its income tax positions and deductions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material changes to its financial position. The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such items as a component of income tax expense.
The
Company’s deferred tax asset at December 31, 2022 consists of net operating loss carry forwards calculated using federal and state
effective tax rates equating to approximately $
Related parties
The Company follows subtopic 850-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.
Pursuant to Section 850-10-20 the related parties include a. affiliates of the Company; b. entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; c. trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; d. principal owners of the Company; e. management of the Company; f. other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and g. other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
The consolidated financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: a. the nature of the relationship(s) involved; b. a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; c. the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d. amounts due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, which simplifies the accounting for non-employee share-based payment transactions. The amendments specify that Topic 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The standard will be effective for us in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2020, although early adoption is permitted (but no sooner than the adoption of Topic 606). The Company has adopted this standard beginning January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard has not had a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement disclosures.
In February 2016, Topic 842, “Leases” was issued to replace the leases requirements in Topic 840, “Leases”. The main difference between previous GAAP and Topic 842 is the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. A lessee should recognize in the balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. If a lessee makes this election, it should recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The accounting applied by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under previous GAAP. Topic 842 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods and is to be retrospectively applied. The Company has adopted this standard beginning January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard has not had a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement disclosures.

General Overview
Jupiter Wellness is committed to supporting health and wellness by developing innovative solutions to a range of conditions. We take pride in our research and development of over-the-counter (OTC) products and intellectual property, which aim to address some of the most prevalent health and wellness concerns today. Our product pipeline includes a diverse range of products, such as hair loss treatments, eczema creams, vitiligo solutions, and sexual wellness products, that cater to different health and wellness needs. We are dedicated to staying up-to-date with the latest scientific research and technology, ensuring that our products are effective, safe, and meet the highest industry standards.
To achieve our mission, we rely on a team of highly skilled and experienced professionals who are committed to advancing our vision of health and wellness. Our team includes scientists, researchers, product developers, and business experts who collaborate to create new products and enhance existing ones. We also partner with industry leaders and organizations to leverage the latest technologies and expand our reach.
We generate revenue through various channels, including the sales of our OTC and consumer products, as well as licensing royalties. Our products are available through various retailers and e-commerce platforms, making them accessible to a broad customer base. Additionally, we collaborate with other companies to license our intellectual property, creating additional revenue streams and expanding our global presence.
We signed agreements to license JW-700 to Taisho, a $2.6 billion revenue company and Japan’s leading seller of minoxidil products. Taisho plans on launching the product commercially in 2024. In India, the Company signed an agreement with Cosmofix Technovation Pvt Ltd and Sanpellegrino Cosmetics to license its JW-700 and Photocil products. Additional licensing opportunities for these products are being pursued primarily in overseas markets.
Products Roadmap
The Company is advancing several formulations to address psoriasis and vitiligo (Photocil), increase the effectiveness of minoxidil to treat hair loss (JW-700 “minoxidil booster”), women’s sexual wellness (JW-500), and jellyfish sting prevention sunscreen (NoStingz), and atopic dermatitis/eczema (JW-110).
Photocil was launched commercially in India in Q3 2022 as a treatment for vitiligo and psoriasis. Photocil is a topical cream that works with natural sunlight to provide patients with safe and effective phototherapy at home by blocking harmful radiation and permitting the passage of therapeutic UV radiation from the sun.
NoStingz provides an effective barrier against the stinging mechanism of jellyfish cnidocyte preventing the delivery of venom to the victim. Applied like other topical sun screen products, the product is clinically proven to protect users from jellyfish, sea lice, and UVA/UVB rays.
JW-700, currently being licensed abroad and developed for US launch, the product has been clinically shown to increase the enzymes needed for minoxidil to work, sulfotransferase enzymes, by using the product topically in conjunction with topical minoxidil. Additional studies and formulation work are ongoing.
JW-500 was born out of clinical trials designed to establish a topical treatment for the restoration of nipple sensitivity for breast augmentation patients, in addition to patients who had undergone chemotherapy or lumpectomy surgery following a cancer diagnosis. During early studies, women reported not only increased sensitivity but also increased libido. The Company plans to file for a pre-IND meeting with the US FDA and seek Orphan Drug Designation. An expedited 505(b)(2) regulatory pathway for development is being considered as the current formulation contains an already approved drug.

Research and Development
Our research and development team in continually looking to develop new therapeutic products, while continually improving and enhancing our existing products and product candidates to address customer demands and emerging trends. Our team is currently working to further improve the protection provided by NoStingz and develop more effective formulas for our JW-700 product.
Sales and Marketing
We primarily sell our products through third-party physical retail stores and partners who license and distribute them to other markets. Currently, our products are licensed for distribution in over 31 countries. The majority of our sales occur via traditional physical retailers, including their websites. We also sell via online retailers, such as Amazon and Walmart. To drive loyalty, word-of-mouth marketing, and sustainable growth, we invest in customer experience and customer relationship management. Our marketing investments are directed towards driving profitable growth through advertising, public relations, and brand promotion activities, including digital platforms, sponsorships, collaborations, brand activations, and channel marketing. Additionally, we continue to invest in our marketing and brand development efforts by investing capital expenditures on product displays to support our channel marketing via our retail partners.
Manufacturing, Logistics and Fulfillment
We outsource the manufacturing of our products to contract manufacturers, who produce them according to our formulation specifications. Our products are manufactured by contract manufacturers in India and the US. The majority of our products will then be shipped to third-party warehouses and to our corporate offices, which can either transport them to our distributors, retailers, or directly to our customers. Our third-party warehouses are located in the US. We use a limited number of logistics providers to deliver our products to both distributors and retailers, which allows us to lessen order fulfillment time, cut shipping costs, and improve inventory flexibility.
SRM Entertainment
On November 30, 2020, we entered into and closed the Exchange Agreement with SRM, a Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China limited company and wholly owned subsidiary of Vinco, and SRM Shareholders, pursuant to which we acquired 100% of the SRM Common Stock from the SRM Shareholders in exchange for 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. At the closing of the Exchange Agreement, SRM became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
SRM has relationships with and supplies the amusement park industry with exclusive products such as toys, lights, fans and other items that are sold in amusement parks. SRM has developed, manufactured and supplied the amusement park industry with exclusive products that are often only available to consumers inside the relevant amusement park, entertainment venues and theme hotels in Orlando Florida, Beijing China, Japan and other places throughout the worldwide theme park industry. SRM has developed unique products in conjunction with suppliers of products for core licensed items for major well-known brands, themes, characters, and movies.
Products developed by SRM are generally shipped directly to the theme park without warehousing at the Company’s facilities. SRM does not have long-term agreements with its customers, and instead develops products on an item-by-item basis subject to purchase orders from its customers.
Through SRM, the Company additionally intends to seek to sell its sun care products in amusement parks and related beach-adjacent properties such as cruise lines and ocean resorts. We are currently pursuing the sale of its jellyfish protection sun care products for sale in these locations.
Our Competitive Strengths
We are committed to driving continuous improvement through innovation. Since our inception, we have made significant investments in research and development and have acquired a substantial portfolio of intellectual property, which continues to grow each year. Our commitment to innovation has allowed us to create unique products that address unmet needs in the market, all backed by rigorous clinical research. Our focus on research and development has enabled us to stay ahead of the curve and provide our customers with products that are not only effective but also innovative. We take pride in our patent portfolio and the continuous growth we have achieved, as it showcases our dedication to creating new and unique solutions for our customers. By staying committed to innovation, we are confident in our ability to meet the ever-changing needs of the market and continue to be a leading player in the wellness industry.
Recent Developments
On January 20, 2022 the Company received a letter from Nasdaq stating that, because the Company made the Share Grants not pursuant to the 2021 Equity Plan despite them considered to be S-8 eligible, Nasdaq had determined that the Company did not comply with Listing Rule 5635(c). It was brought to our attention that 180,000 shares of common stock, out of the total 1,020,000 shares of common stock to consultants (the “Consulting Share Awards”) that were issued to three consultants, Greentree Financial (100,000 shares), Inc., L&H Inc. (20,000 shares), and Tee 2 Green Enterprises, Ltd. (60,000 shares), during the relevant period (the “Share Grants”), should have been issued pursuant to the 2021 Equity Plan because the Share Grants were considered to be S-8 eligible. As a result, the inadvertent issuance of the Share Grants to the mentioned-above three consultants was not made in compliance with Listing Rule 5635(c). The Company subsequently notified Nasdaq that the Board has approved the reallocation of the Share Grants to be accounted for as if they were originally issued under the 2021 Equity Plan, and has made the corresponding change to the Company’s books and records. However, since the 2021 Equity Plan has previously been exercised in full, to allow for the reallocation of the Share Grants under the 2021 Equity Plan, on January 17, 2022, the Board determined that 100,000 options that have previously been issued under the 2021 Equity Plan to Brian John, and 100,000 options issued to Dr. Glynn Wilson be cancelled, a revocation to which Messrs. John and Wilson have agreed. Following the remedial measures, on January 20, 2022, the Company was informed that the Company has regained compliance with the Rule and that this matter is now closed.

On January 19, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “PIPE Agreement”) with certain purchasers, for the issuance of 8,631,574 common stock warrants (the “PIPE Offering”) at a price of $0.125 per warrant, comprised of two common stock warrants (the “Common Warrants,”), each to purchase up to one share of Common Stock per Common Warrant with an exercise price of $1.00 per share, with (a) 4,315,787 Common Warrants being immediately exercisable for three years following 6 months from the closing of the PIPE Offering, and (b) 4,315,787 Common Warrants being immediately exercisable for five years following 6 months from the closing of the PIPE Offering. Concurrently to the PIPE Agreement, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “RD Agreement”) with certain purchasers, pursuant to which on January 23, 2023, 4,315,787 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Common Stock”), at a price of $0.70 per share were issued to the purchasers (the “RD Offering”). The Common Stock was issued pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on September 28, 2022 (File No. 333-267644) and declared effective on November 9, 2022. The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company from both the PIPE Offering and the RD Offering were approximately $4.1 million, with the purchase price of one share, one 3-year warrant and one 5-year warrant as $0.95. The net proceeds were $3,450,675.
On March 31, 2023 the Company entered into a Financial Advisory Agreement (“FSA”) with Greentree Financial Group, Inc. to render certain professional services to the Company. In connection with the FSA, The Company issued 500,000 restricted shares of its common stock to Greentree.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Jupiter Wellness, Inc., a Florida corporation, SRM Entertainment, Limited, a Hong Kong private limited company, and Jupiter Wellness Investments, Inc., a Florida corporation. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Emerging Growth Company Status
We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”), and 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 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. We have elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, we, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of our financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our unaudited financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 and audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022, which have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The preparation of the financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported revenue generated, and expenses incurred during the reporting periods. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and on various other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions and any such differences may be material. We believe that the accounting policies discussed below are critical to understanding our historical and future performance, as these policies relate to the more significant areas involving management’s judgments and estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash and equivalents for purposes of the statement of cash flows. There were no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.
Investments Held-to-Maturity
Investments that the Company’s management has the “positive intent and ability” to hold through maturity are classified and accounted for as hold-to-maturity investments (“HTM”). HTM investments are carried at amortized cost in the financial statements. For investments classified as HTM, no unrealized gains and losses will be recognized in financial statements.
Trading Securities
Securities that the Company intends to sell are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are carried at fair value with gains and losses recognized in current period earnings.

Net Loss per Common Share
Net income (loss) per common share is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. If applicable, diluted earnings per share assume the conversion, exercise or issuance of all common stock instruments such as options, warrants, convertible securities and preferred stock, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share. As such, options, warrants, convertible securities and preferred stock are not considered in the calculations, as the impact of the potential common shares would be to decrease the loss per share.

Revenue Recognition
The Company generates its revenue from the sale of its products directly to the end user or distributor (collectively the “customer”).
The Company recognizes revenues by applying the following steps in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”). Under ASC 606, revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements:
| ● | identify the contract with a customer; | |
| ● | identify the performance obligations in the contract; | |
| ● | determine the transaction price; | |
| ● | allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and | |
| ● | recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied. |
The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied when goods or products are shipped on an FOB shipping point basis as title passes when shipped. Our product is generally paid in advance of shipment or standard net 30 days and we offer no specific right of return, refund or warranty related to our products except for cases of defective products of which there have been none to date.
Accounts Receivable and Credit Risk
Accounts receivable are generated from sales of the Company’s products. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful collections, which is based upon a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information, and existing economic conditions. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had not recognized an allowance for doubtful collections.
Foreign Currency Translation
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate at the balance sheet date, while revenue and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rates prevailing during the period. Equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions and translation for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and year ended December 31, 2021 and the cumulative translation gains and losses as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were not material.
Inventory
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. The Company periodically reviews the value of items in inventory and provides write-downs or write-offs of inventory based on its assessment of market conditions. Write-downs and write-offs are charged to cost of goods sold. Inventory is based upon the average cost method of accounting.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of our assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
| 5 |
Income Taxes
We account for income taxes under ASC 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.
ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition. Based on our evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in our financial statements. Since we were incorporated on October 24, 2018, the evaluation was performed for 2018 tax year, which would be the only period subject to examination. We believe that our income tax positions and deductions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material changes to our financial position. Our policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such items as a component of income tax expense.
The Company’s deferred tax asset at December 31, 2022 consists of net operating loss carry forwards calculated using federal and state effective tax rates equating to approximately $7,110,329 less a valuation allowance in the amount of approximately $7,110,329. Due to the Company’s lack of earnings history, the deferred tax asset has been fully offset by a valuation allowance in the year ended December 31, 2022.
Research and Development
The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 730-10, Research and Development (“ASC 730-10”). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and developments costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved. Company-sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred. The Company incurred research and development expenses of $36,928 and $128,241 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Stock Based Compensation
We recognize compensation costs to employees under FASB Accounting Standards Codification 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share based compensation arrangements include stock options and warrants. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.
On October 24, 2018, the inception date (“Inception”), we adopted ASU No. 2018-07 “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” These amendments expand the scope of Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (which currently only includes share-based payments to employees) to include share-based payments issued to nonemployees for goods or services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees and employees will be substantially aligned.
Related parties
The Company follows subtopic 850-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.
Pursuant to Section 850-10-20 the related parties include a. affiliates of the Company; b. Entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; c. trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; d. principal owners of the Company; e. management of the Company; f. other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and g. Other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
The consolidated financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: a. the nature of the relationship(s) involved; b. a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; c. the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d. amounts due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, which simplifies the accounting for non-employee share-based payment transactions. The amendments specify that Topic 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The Company has adopted this standard beginning January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement disclosures.
In February 2016, Topic 842, “Leases” was issued to replace the leases requirements in Topic 840, “Leases”. The main difference between previous GAAP and Topic 842 is the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. A lessee should recognize in the balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. If a lessee makes this election, it should recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The accounting applied by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under previous GAAP. Topic 842 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods and is to be retrospectively applied. The Company has adopted this standard beginning January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement disclosures.
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
As a “smaller reporting company”, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of “disclosure controls and procedures” in Rule 13a-15(e). The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide a reasonable level of assurance of reaching the Company’s desired disclosure control objectives. In designing periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. The Company’s certifying officers have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in reaching that level of assurance.
At the end of the period being reported upon, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective to ensure that the material information required to be included in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officer, recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms relating to the Company, based on the assessment and control of disclosure decisions currently performed by a small team. The Company plans to expand its management team and build a fulsome internal control framework required by a more complex entity.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
During the past three months and previous fiscal year, we implemented significant measures to remediate the previously disclosed ineffectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, which included an insufficient degree of segregation of duties amongst our accounting and financial reporting personnel, and the lack of a formalized and complete set of policy and procedure documentation evidencing our system of internal controls over financial reporting. The remediation measures consisted of the hiring of individuals with appropriate experience in internal controls over financial reporting, and the modification of our accounting processes and enhancement to our financial controls, including the testing of such controls.
Other than as described above, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rules 13a-15(d) or 15d-15(d) that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
Management has confidence in its internal controls and procedures. The Company’s management believes that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated can provide only reasonable assurance and cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the internal control system are met, and no evaluation of internal controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. Further, the design of an internal control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitation in all internal control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issuers and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
On August 6, 2020, the Company, Messrs. John and Miller and certain affiliated entities filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court, Southern District of New York against Robert Koch, Bedford Investment Partners, LLC, Kaizen Advisors, LLC and certain other unnamed defendants. The lawsuit alleged that Mr. Koch and the other defendants were attempting to extort the Company and Messrs. John and Miller to issue the defendants shares of the Company’s common stock which they claim are owed to them. The Company asserted that they have no oral or written agreement with Mr. Koch or any of his affiliates that entitle him to shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company’s complaint seeks actual damages in the amount of $5,000,000 and punitive damages in the amount of $5,000,000. In response, Mr. Koch and Bedford Investment Partners, LLC (together, the “Koch Parties”) filed their answer and counterclaim, repeating the same claims that caused the Company to file the lawsuit, and claiming damages of over $10 million. On October 6, 2020, the Company moved for judgment on the pleadings to dismiss the defendants’ counterclaim in its entirety. On April 24, 2021, the Company’s motion was granted and all counterclaims were dismissed with prejudice, except the breach-of-contract and unjust enrichment claims. On June 04, 2021 the Koch Parties filed a Second Amended Counterclaim, re-alleging their previous breach-of-contract and unjust enrichment counterclaims. On June 25, 2021, the Company filed a motion to dismiss defendants’ Second Amended Counterclaim, which the parties briefed in summer 2021. On February 14, 2022, the court dismissed all of the Koch Parties’ counterclaims except to the extent that they alleged unjust enrichment against Jupiter and Mr. John. On March 22, 2022, the Parties engaged in a Settlement Conference before The Honorable Sarah L. Cave, which did not resolve the case. On March 25, 2022, The Honorable Lewis J. Liman granted Jupiter and Mr. John permission to move for summary judgment dismissing the Koch Parties’ unjust enrichment counterclaim; the parties briefed that motion in spring 2022. On January 30, 2023, Judge Liman largely granted Jupiter and Mr. Koch’s motion, eliminating all of the Koch Parties’ remedy theories except for their restitution claim for transferring the domain www.cbdbrands.net to Jupiter. In doing so, Judge Liman suggested that a jury could find that the Koch Parties would be fully compensated if the parties simply unwound the domain transfer, or that the jury might quantify the website’s value by looking to the amounts that the Koch Parties had paid for other, similar websites: between $12.17 and $65.98. After Judge Liman issued this order, the Parties settled all claims and Jupiter and Mr. John filed a proposed order of dismissal of all claims with prejudice. On February 17, 2023, Judge Liman so-ordered that proposed order and closed the case.

| Significant Accounting Policies | Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of US Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Jupiter Wellness, Inc., a Florida corporation, Magical Beasts, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company and SRM Entertainment, Limited, a Hong Kong private limited company. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”), and it 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 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US 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 expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash and equivalents for purposes of the statement of cash flows. There were no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.
Inventory
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. The Company periodically reviews the value of items in inventory and provides write-downs or write-offs of inventory based on its assessment of market conditions. Write-downs and write-offs are charged to cost of goods sold. Inventory is based upon the average cost method of accounting. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company had no write-downs or write-offs. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company determined that certain of our inventory items were either slow moving, expired or discontinued. As a result, the Company wrote-off a total of $152,432 of inventory, consisting of raw materials of $23,623, finished goods of $123,094 and packaging of $5,715 for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Investments Held-to-Maturity
Investments that the Company’s management has the “positive intent and ability” to hold through maturity are classified and accounted for as hold-to-maturity investments (“HTM”). HTM investments are carried at amortized cost in the financial statements. For investments classified as HTM, no unrealized gains and losses will be recognized in financial statements.
Trading Securities
Securities that the Company intends to sell are classified as trading securities. Trading securities are carried at fair value with gains and losses recognized in current period earnings.
Segment Reporting
The Company has two reportable segments: (i) sales and development of skin, hair care and therapeutic products and (ii) sales of merchandise sold to theme parks.
Net income (loss) per common share is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. If applicable, diluted earnings per share assume the conversion, exercise or issuance of all common stock instruments such as options, warrants, convertible securities and preferred stock, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share. As such, options, warrants, convertible securities, and preferred stock are not considered in the calculations, as the impact of the potential common shares would be to decrease the loss per share.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates its revenue from the sale of its products directly to the end user or through a distributor (collectively the “customers”).
The Company recognizes revenues by applying the following steps in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”). Under ASC 606, revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements:
The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied when goods or products are shipped on a FOB shipping point basis as title passes when shipped. Our products are generally paid in advance of shipment or standard net 30 days and we offer no specific right of return, refund or warranty related to our products except for cases of defective products of which there have been none to date.
Accounts Receivable and Credit Risk
Accounts receivable are generated from sales of the Company’s products. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful collections, which is based upon a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information, and existing economic conditions. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recognized allowance for doubtful collections.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We evaluate long-lived assets (including intangible assets) for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. An asset is considered impaired if its carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flow the asset is expected to generate.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill is tested for impairment at a minimum on an annual basis. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level by first performing a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If the reporting unit does not pass the qualitative assessment, then the reporting unit’s carrying value is compared to its fair value. The fair values of the reporting units are estimated using market and discounted cash flow approaches. Goodwill is considered impaired if the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value. The discounted cash flow approach uses expected future operating results. Failure to achieve these expected results may cause a future impairment of goodwill at the reporting unit.
We conducted an evaluation of our goodwill as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and there was no impairment in the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022.
Intangible assets consist of patents and trademarks, purchased customer contracts, purchased customer and merchant relationships, purchased trade names, purchased technology, and non-compete agreements. Intangible assets are amortized over the period of estimated benefit using the straight-line method and estimated useful lives ranging from one to twenty years. No significant residual value is estimated for intangible assets. We evaluate long-lived assets (including intangible assets) for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. An asset is considered impaired if its carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flow the asset is expected to generate.
The Company’s evaluation of its long-lived assets resulted in an impairment expense of $1,450,000 during the year ended December 31, 2022 and no impairment during the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Foreign Currency Translation
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate at the balance sheet date, while revenue and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rates prevailing during the period. Equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates. Cumulative gains and losses from foreign currency transactions and translation for the six months June 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022 were not material.
Research and Development
The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 730-10, Research and Development (“ASC 730-10”). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and developments costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved. Company-sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred. The Company incurred research and development expenses of $36,928 and $128,241 for the six-months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company recognizes compensation costs to employees under FASB Accounting Standards Codification 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share based compensation arrangements include stock options and warrants. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.
On October 24, 2018, the inception date, the Company adopted ASU No. 2018-07 “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” These amendments expand the scope of Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (which currently only includes share-based payments to employees) to include share-based payments issued to non-employees for goods or services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees and employees will be substantially aligned.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.
ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition. Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements. Since the Company was incorporated on October 24, 2018, the evaluation was performed for 2018 tax year which would be the only period subject to examination. The Company believes that its income tax positions and deductions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material changes to its financial position. The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such items as a component of income tax expense.
The Company’s deferred tax asset at December 31, 2022 consists of net operating loss carry forwards calculated using federal and state effective tax rates equating to approximately $7,110,329 less a valuation allowance in the amount of approximately $7,110,329. Due to the Company’s lack of earnings history, the deferred tax asset has been fully offset by a valuation allowance in the year ended December 31, 2022.
Related parties
The Company follows subtopic 850-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions.
Pursuant to Section 850-10-20 the related parties include a. affiliates of the Company; b. entities for which investments in their equity securities would be required, absent the election of the fair value option under the Fair Value Option Subsection of Section 825–10–15, to be accounted for by the equity method by the investing entity; c. trusts for the benefit of employees, such as pension and profit-sharing trusts that are managed by or under the trusteeship of management; d. principal owners of the Company; e. management of the Company; f. other parties with which the Company may deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests; and g. other parties that can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or that have an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests.
The consolidated financial statements shall include disclosures of material related party transactions, other than compensation arrangements, expense allowances, and other similar items in the ordinary course of business. However, disclosure of transactions that are eliminated in the preparation of consolidated or combined financial statements is not required in those statements. The disclosures shall include: a. the nature of the relationship(s) involved; b. a description of the transactions, including transactions to which no amounts or nominal amounts were ascribed, for each of the periods for which income statements are presented, and such other information deemed necessary to an understanding of the effects of the transactions on the financial statements; c. the dollar amounts of transactions for each of the periods for which income statements are presented and the effects of any change in the method of establishing the terms from that used in the preceding period; and d. amounts due from or to related parties as of the date of each balance sheet presented and, if not otherwise apparent, the terms and manner of settlement.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, which simplifies the accounting for non-employee share-based payment transactions. The amendments specify that Topic 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The standard will be effective for us in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2020, although early adoption is permitted (but no sooner than the adoption of Topic 606). The Company has adopted this standard beginning January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard has not had a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement disclosures.
In February 2016, Topic 842, “Leases” was issued to replace the leases requirements in Topic 840, “Leases”. The main difference between previous GAAP and Topic 842 is the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. A lessee should recognize in the balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. If a lessee makes this election, it should recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The accounting applied by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under previous GAAP. Topic 842 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods and is to be retrospectively applied. The Company has adopted this standard beginning January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard has not had a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement disclosures.

Legal Proceedings
The Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims arising from contracts or other matters from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Management is not aware of any pending or threatened litigation where the ultimate disposition or resolution could have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
On August 6, 2020, the Company, Messrs. John and Miller and certain affiliated entities filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court, Southern District of New York against Robert Koch, Bedford Investment Partners, LLC, Kaizen Advisors, LLC and certain other unnamed defendants. The lawsuit alleged that Mr. Koch and the other defendants were attempting to extort the Company and Messrs. John and Miller to issue the defendants shares of the Company’s common stock which they claim are owed to them. The Company asserted that they have no oral or written agreement with Mr. Koch or any of his affiliates that entitle him to shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company’s complaint seeks actual damages in the amount of $5,000,000 and punitive damages in the amount of $5,000,000. In response, Mr. Koch and Bedford Investment Partners, LLC (together, the “Koch Parties”) filed their answer and counterclaim, repeating the same claims that caused the Company to file the lawsuit, and claiming damages of over $10 million. On October 6, 2020, the Company moved for judgment on the pleadings to dismiss the defendants’ counterclaim in its entirety. On April 24, 2021, the Company’s motion was granted, and all counterclaims were dismissed with prejudice, except the breach-of-contract and unjust enrichment claims. On June 04, 2021, the Koch Parties filed a Second Amended Counterclaim, re-alleging their previous breach-of-contract and unjust enrichment counterclaims. On June 25, 2021, the Company filed a motion to dismiss defendants’ Second Amended Counterclaim, which the parties briefed in summer 2021. On February 14, 2022, the court dismissed all of the Koch Parties’ counterclaims except to the extent that they alleged unjust enrichment against Jupiter and Mr. John. On March 22, 2022, the Parties engaged in a Settlement Conference before The Honorable Sarah L. Cave, which did not resolve the case. On March 25, 2022, The Honorable Lewis J. Liman granted Jupiter and Mr. John permission to move for summary judgment dismissing the Koch Parties’ unjust enrichment counterclaim; the parties briefed that motion in spring 2022. On January 30, 2023, Judge Liman largely granted Jupiter and Mr. Koch’s motion, eliminating all of the Koch Parties’ remedy theories except for their restitution claim for transferring the domain www.cbdbrands.net to Jupiter. In doing so, Judge Liman suggested that a jury could find that the Koch Parties would be fully compensated if the parties simply unwound the domain transfer, or that the jury might quantify the website’s value by looking to the amounts that the Koch Parties had paid for other, similar websites: between $12.17 and $65.98. After Judge Liman issued this order, the Parties settled all claims and Jupiter and Mr. John filed a proposed order of dismissal of all claims with prejudice. Under the order, Jupiter did not pay any amount in settlement of the claims. On February 17, 2023, Judge Liman so-ordered that proposed order and closed the case.

| Emerging Growth Company Status | Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”), and it 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 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

| Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US 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 expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

| Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash and equivalents for purposes of the statement of cash flows. There were no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022.

| Inventory | Inventory
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. The Company periodically reviews the value of items in inventory and provides write-downs or write-offs of inventory based on its assessment of market conditions. Write-downs and write-offs are charged to cost of goods sold. Inventory is based upon the average cost method of accounting. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company had no write-downs or write-offs. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company determined that certain of our inventory items were either slow moving, expired or discontinued. As a result, the Company wrote-off a total of $152,432 of inventory, consisting of raw materials of $23,623, finished goods of $123,094 and packaging of $5,715 for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Investments that the Company’s management has the “positive intent and ability” to hold through maturity are classified and accounted for as hold-to-maturity investments (“HTM”). HTM investments are carried at amortized cost in the financial statements. For investments classified as HTM, no unrealized gains and losses will be recognized in financial statements.

| Net Loss per Common Share |
Net income (loss) per common share is computed pursuant to section 260-10-45 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. If applicable, diluted earnings per share assume the conversion, exercise or issuance of all common stock instruments such as options, warrants, convertible securities and preferred stock, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share. As such, options, warrants, convertible securities, and preferred stock are not considered in the calculations, as the impact of the potential common shares would be to decrease the loss per share.

| Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.

| Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition
The Company generates its revenue from the sale of its products directly to the end user or through a distributor (collectively the “customers”).
The Company recognizes revenues by applying the following steps in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”). Under ASC 606, revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its agreements:
The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied when goods or products are shipped on a FOB shipping point basis as title passes when shipped. Our products are generally paid in advance of shipment or standard net 30 days and we offer no specific right of return, refund or warranty related to our products except for cases of defective products of which there have been none to date.

| Accounts Receivable and Credit Risk | Accounts Receivable and Credit Risk
Accounts receivable are generated from sales of the Company’s products. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful collections, which is based upon a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information, and existing economic conditions.

| Impairment of Long-Lived Assets | Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We evaluate long-lived assets (including intangible assets) for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. An asset is considered impaired if its carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flow the asset is expected to generate.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Goodwill and Intangible Assets | Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill is tested for impairment at a minimum on an annual basis. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level by first performing a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If the reporting unit does not pass the qualitative assessment, then the reporting unit’s carrying value is compared to its fair value. The fair values of the reporting units are estimated using market and discounted cash flow approaches. Goodwill is considered impaired if the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value. The discounted cash flow approach uses expected future operating results. Failure to achieve these expected results may cause a future impairment of goodwill at the reporting unit.
We conducted an evaluation of our goodwill as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 and there was no impairment in the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022.
Intangible assets consist of patents and trademarks, purchased customer contracts, purchased customer and merchant relationships, purchased trade names, purchased technology, and non-compete agreements. Intangible assets are amortized over the period of estimated benefit using the straight-line method and estimated useful lives ranging from one to twenty years. No significant residual value is estimated for intangible assets. We evaluate long-lived assets (including intangible assets) for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. An asset is considered impaired if its carrying amount exceeds the undiscounted future net cash flow the asset is expected to generate.
The Company’s evaluation of its long-lived assets resulted in an impairment expense of $1,450,000 during the year ended December 31, 2022 and no impairment during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

| Foreign Currency Translation | Foreign Currency Translation
Assets and liabilities in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate at the balance sheet date, while revenue and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rates prevailing during the period. Equity accounts are translated at historical exchange rates. Cumulative gains and losses from foreign currency transactions and translation for the six months June 30, 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2022 were not material.

| Research and Development | Research and Development
The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 730-10, Research and Development (“ASC 730-10”). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and developments costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved. Company-sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred. The Company incurred research and development expenses of $36,928 and $128,241 for the six-months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, respectively.

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Stock Based Compensation | Stock Based Compensation
The Company recognizes compensation costs to employees under FASB Accounting Standards Codification 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under ASC 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share based compensation arrangements include stock options and warrants. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.
On October 24, 2018, the inception date, the Company adopted ASU No. 2018-07 “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” These amendments expand the scope of Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (which currently only includes share-based payments to employees) to include share-based payments issued to non-employees for goods or services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to nonemployees and employees will be substantially aligned.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Income Taxes | Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax loss and tax credit carry forwards. ASC 740 additionally requires a valuation allowance to be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be realized.
ASC 740 also clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim period, disclosure and transition. Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements. Since the Company was incorporated on October 24, 2018, the evaluation was performed for 2018 tax year which would be the only period subject to examination. The Company believes that its income tax positions and deductions would be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material changes to its financial position. The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties associated with audits is to record such items as a component of income tax expense.
The Company’s deferred tax asset at December 31, 2022 consists of net operating loss carry forwards calculated using federal and state effective tax rates equating to approximately $7,110,329 less a valuation allowance in the amount of approximately $7,110,329. Due to the Company’s lack of earnings history, the deferred tax asset has been fully offset by a valuation allowance in the year ended December 31, 2022.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, which simplifies the accounting for non-employee share-based payment transactions. The amendments specify that Topic 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The standard will be effective for us in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2020, although early adoption is permitted (but no sooner than the adoption of Topic 606). The Company has adopted this standard beginning January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard has not had a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement disclosures.
In February 2016, Topic 842, “Leases” was issued to replace the leases requirements in Topic 840, “Leases”. The main difference between previous GAAP and Topic 842 is the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. A lessee should recognize in the balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. If a lessee makes this election, it should recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The accounting applied by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under previous GAAP. Topic 842 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods and is to be retrospectively applied. The Company has adopted this standard beginning January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard has not had a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement disclosures. |
