ITEM 1. BUSINESS

 

The Company

 

We are a consumer health care company dedicated to the cost-effective development and marketing of over-the-counter (OTC) and other non-prescription consumer health care products.

 

GelStat will continue to operate as a direct-to-consumer retailer and will continue to evolve its marketing strategies with an expanded distribution base through third-party distribution mechanisms.

 

GelStat plans to introduce new products and market those products with national digital reach targeting concentrated market areas designed to grow our distribution network.

 

In March 2020, a new CEO was appointed. In July 2020, the CEO initiated operations with the purchase of inventory and leasing of office and warehouse space. In late 2020, the Company began reengaging with capital markets and seeking additional financing which is ongoing at this time.

 

In January 2021, GelStat returned to OTC Markets by updating disclosure documents and deploying processes to ensure public filings, transparent operations and shareholder engagement. On June 22, 2021, the Company filed an amendment of its certificate of incorporation with the State of Delaware to increase its authorized common stock shares to 5,000,000,000. On July 6, 2021, the Company filed a certificate of designation to authorize 51 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.01.

 

Products

 

We currently offer non-nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory homeopathic drugs (non-NSAID) targeting consumer concerned with migraines, headaches, or sleep. Currently, approximately two-thirds of the population of the United States of America is affected by one of the aforementioned issues. We plan to introduce enhanced versions of our current line of products allowing for improved performance and focusing on prevention of symptoms when that formulation is supported by scientific research.

 

Our aim is to produce and sell products that are:

 

  · Effective plant-based and natural;

 

  · Safe to use;

 

1 
 

 

 

  · Reduce symptoms and need for medication;

 

  · Have no known side effects; and

 

  · Non-narcotic and non-NSAID.

 

The approximate number of individuals in the United States of America suffering from the types of symptoms that our products are aiming to address are as follows:

 

  · Migraines - 38 million people reported monthly

 

  · Sleep - 110 million estimated

  

The above statistics indicate the potential markets for our products, and the basis of our belief to launch a widespread and successful marketing campaign for our products that we believe will generate a larger revenue base. Below is a description of our products:

 

GelStat Migraine

 

The Company's first product is GelStat® Migraine is a homeopathic drug designed to provide acute relief from migraine and migraine-like headaches. GelStat Migraine was originally launched through distributors into retailers and wholesalers across the United States.

 

The global migraine drug market was valued at $1.7 billion in 2017, according to studies from Allied Market Research and Grand View Research, and is expected to reach $2.1 billion by 2025, growing at an expected CAGR of 3.1% during the forecast period (2018-2025). North America is anticipated to be the highest revenue contributor throughout the forecast period.

 

GelStat Migraine maintains a competitive edge in a market were non-prescription NSAID medications become less desirable due to long term organ damage and supplements with less effectiveness gain appeal being labelled natural and with negligible side effects. GelStat Migraine has yet to reach its market potential while becoming a bridge for downstream derivatives that will refresh the brand. We also are working with search engines to effectively promote and advertise our products. Additional efforts to expand brand and product awareness will include research studies designed to induce new users to GelStat Migraine, continuously seeding downstream social interactions and mentions.

 

GelStat Migraine is administered sublingually (under the tongue), where it is held in place briefly before being swallowed. Gelstat Migraine is provided in single dose dispensers, which are intended to ensure ease of use as well as consistent, accurate administration of medication. By utilizing an orally dispersible tablet to deliver the planned combination of ingredients, the product contains advantageous relative to competing products. GelStat Sleep is provided as an orally dispersible tablet, a form of administration believed to be of particular benefit because of the rapid onset of absorption and the high percent of active ingredient absorbed. It is believed that GelStat Sleep may offer consumers an effective OTC sleep aid without the risks and side effects associated with other OTC and prescription sleep aids.

 

GelStat Sleep

 

GelStat Sleep is a sleep aid that employs a unique combination of active ingredients, each of which has independently been shown in certain studies to be effective in promoting healthy sleep. Those ingredients are combined with proprietary adjuncts as part of the delivery system intended to provide rapid, effective and safe administration when used as directed. The tablets are specifically formulated for effective delivery of active ingredients. Unlike nearly all other non-prescription sleep aids, GelStat Sleep does not contain antihistamines. Antihistamines cause drowsiness, but they are often ineffective sleep aids, and have side effects that create problems for many users.

The global insomnia therapeutics market is expected to reach $3.45 billion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc.

 

“Global Sleep Aids Market size was valued at $49,543 million in 2016, and is estimated to reach $79,851 million by 2023, registering a CAGR of 7.0% from 2017 to 2023. Sleep is a biological requirement that maintain metabolic homeostasis, influences memory and other cognitive function, and regulates immune function. Sleep aids are drugs and medical devices used to diagnose and treat various sleep disorders, such as sleep apnea and insomnia. Lack of quality sleep leads to sleep disorders, which are caused due to medical issues, physical disturbances, environmental problems, and psychiatric disorders. These sleep disorders are expected to adversely affect the human health and lead to number of chronic diseases, such as high blood pressure, diabetes, arthritis, and stroke. Thus, it is important to treat and diagnose these disorders at an early stage. In addition, rising innovations in sleep aid devices, developing drugs for inappropriate sleep and rising utilization of compact sleep apnea devices is relied upon to add to the development of the global sleep aids market.” (Sleep Aids Market by Product and Sleep Disorder - Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2017-2023, Onkar Sumant and Tenzin Kunsel, 2017).

 

This market is primarily driven by the presence of patented molecules, potential clinical pipeline candidates, rising stress level, and increase in geriatric population who find it difficult to fall asleep.

 

Increase in prevalence of insomnia, awareness about this condition and availability of safer drugs are anticipated to fuel revenue growth. The COVID-19 pandemic and turbulent political climate is expected to create additional demand for this product.

 

There is heavy competition in insomnia therapeutics market segment, with new competition being introduced to this market regularly, and with customers frequently changing their behavior, primarily to avoid prescription and narcotics, and to compensate for their increased tolerance to medications or supplements. Competition in this segment includes Koninklijke Philips N.V., Merck & Co., Sanofi, eVilbiss Healthcare LLC., Pfizer Inc., SleepMed Inc., Cadwell Laboratories Inc., Compumedics Limited, Natus Medical Incorporated, and GlaxoSmithKline plc. However, the aforementioned companies' primary products require prescription, creating an opportunity for GelStat Sleep, an effective OTC supplement, which has room to grow share in this massive segment through high volume marketing engagements and infomercial style marketing directed to social media platforms.

 

FDA Approval

 

In general, the Company's products are regulated both by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") and by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (the "FTC") as well as States through their “little FTC” laws and rules as well as other consumer protection laws. Internationally, the Company must comply with the federal and local laws of each country.

 

The FDA treats homeopathic drugs, both prescription and OTC, differently than non-homeopathic drugs. Unlike non-homeopathic drugs, homeopathic drugs are not required to submit to pre-market approval and are not required to be tested for safety and effectiveness. Homeopathic drugs must meet the standards set forth by the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States.

 

Under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, homeopathic products are subject to the same requirements related to approval, adulteration and misbranding as other drug products. Homeopathy is generally based on two main principles:

 

  · that a substance that causes symptoms in a healthy person can be used in diluted form to treat symptoms and illnesses, a principle known as “like-cures-like”; and

 

  · the more diluted the substance, the more potent it is, which is known as the “law of infinitesimals.”

 

There are currently no known homeopathic products approved by the FDA. Since homeopathic drug products have not been approved by FDA for any use, they may not meet modern standards for safety, effectiveness, and quality. There are no known FDA-approved products labeled as homeopathic; this means that any product labeled as homeopathic is being marketed in the U.S. without FDA evaluation for safety or effectiveness.

 

3 
 

 

The FDA’s proposed approach towards homeopathic products prioritizes regulatory and enforcement actions involving unapproved homeopathic products that pose the greatest risk to patients. Many homeopathic products will likely fall outside the risk-based categories described in the revised draft guidance. The FDA intends to focus its enforcement authorities on the following kinds of products:

 

  · with reported safety concerns;

 

  · that contain or purport to contain ingredients associated with potentially significant safety concerns;

 

  · for routes of administration other than oral or topical, e.g. for use as an injection or taken nasally;

 

  · that claim to treat or prevent serious and/or life-threatening diseases and conditions, such as cancer;

 

  · marketed to vulnerable populations, including children, pregnant women and the elderly; or

 

  · with significant quality issues.

 

In general, the FTC and the FDA prohibit fraud in the marketing of homeopathic drugs, monitor OTC versus prescription use of homeopathic drugs, hold homeopathic drugs to several labeling requirements, and require production incompliance with current good manufacturing practices (with some minor exceptions).

 

The FDA prohibits "health fraud," defined as:

 

The deceptive promotion, advertisement, distribution or sale of articles, intended for human or animal use, that are presented as being effective to diagnose, prevent, cure, treat, or mitigate disease (or other conditions), or provide a beneficial effect on health, but which have not been scientifically proven safe and effective for such purposes. Such practices may be deliberate, or done without adequate knowledge or understanding of the article.

 

Only those homeopathic drugs that treat "self-limiting" conditions that the average consumer can recognize and diagnose are allowed to be marketed as OTC drugs. Homeopathic drugs that claim to treat serious diseases and those that require diagnosis by a physician, such as AIDS or cancer, must be marketed as prescription homeopathic drugs - they cannot be sold as an OTC drug.

 

The FDA requires that homeopathic drugs be properly labeled. “A drug or device shall be deemed to be misbranded if its labeling is false or misleading in any particular fashion.” Furthermore, Section 352 of the Act requires that the name and place of business of the manufacturer, packer, or distributor be placed on the package. Homeopathic drugs for retail sale must also bear adequate directions for use that can be interpreted by the average lay person, and their ingredients as well as the dilution of each active ingredient must be stated (with dilution stated as the number of 1:10 dilutions required to arrive at the final concentration of active ingredient). The label must also state at least one major indication for the drug, the drug's established name, and any applicable warnings.

 

Brand Strategy

 

Consumers worldwide constantly weigh medication benefits over their risks and side effects. Their search for healthier products fuels the alternative medicine demand, creating some instances of over the counter performance exceeding prescription.

 

On top of this behavior, people need a reliable support community to provide reliable tools and resources to manage and contain their particular ailment or requirement.

  

We plan to become a support environment providing the required interactions that allows consumers to safely address their health concerns, find solutions to their requirements and establish a social community that drives awareness for our products and values.

 

Our platform will allow for several products and divisions to coexist and benefit from each other’s success and provide common fulfillment infrastructure to ensure high levels of customer satisfaction with efficient order to delivery processes.

We will spread goals across three operational phases to ensure success:

 

Phase A “Recover”

 

  · Higher focus on robust controls and documentation

 

  · Achieve total effective order fulfillment for all sources

 

  · Achieve individual profitability for each product line

 

Phase B “Stabilize”

 

  · Establish a source path for all products and reintroduce to market previous successful products

 

  · Develop new products and/or derivatives and update/create new patents

 

Phase C “Grow”

 

  · Expand and acquire additional products and/or business in support of expanding market share

  

Our Corporate Strategy

 

The service and sourcing of our products will contain the following characteristics:

 

Customer Service

 

We aim to maintain strong relationships with our diverse customer base. We will require streamlined processes that evaluates retail customer satisfaction metrics across all process stages ensuring each unique business unit customers’ requirements are incorporated into their scope.

 

Order/Service Fulfillment

 

Deploying effective Six Sigma-driven productive chain control processes will allow for controlled continuous improvement operations sharing common methodologies while maintaining uniqueness in each operating structure ensuring cost effective use of resources and external logistic service providers such as Amazon to maintain high levels of customer satisfaction and allow competitive pricing.

 

Administrative Infrastructure

 

Having a central financial data concentration repository will allow for effective metrics and deliverables across the organization while maintaining individuality of each profit center.

 

Pipeline

 

We are finalizing steps to bring to market mature candidates to address prevent migraines; derived from GelStat Migraine. Following a similar development methodology, GelStat Sleep is being overhauled to improve cosmetics and produce derivative applications. In addition to our internal development efforts, we are constantly searching for candidate products to be acquired.

 

Marketing

 

Our commercial strategy will includes maximizing several parallel channels growing each independently until capitalization when a full integration will be sustained. Our efforts will focus on the following channels:

 

Digital Advertising

 

This space provides a huge impact base with unlimited flexibility to increase awareness and generate leads and will consider three sub-channels:

 

  - Google Ad Words – Immediate investment to build and support awareness at a low-cost driving traffic to website and ecommerce resources.

 

5 
 

 

 

  - Digital Media – Establish investment plan for medium to long term advertising in websites with aligned target audience. 

 

  - Social Media – Social targeted interactions designed to build awareness and community engagement driving lead generation and extending our own support environment. 

 

Digital hub

 

Establish a web presence with clear product and company information, robust e-business infrastructure and user-friendly social support environment. 

 

BTL (Campaigns and Activations)

 

Establish investment plan for medium to long-term real-world activities to allow target audience to engage with our products. 

 

Distributor network

 

Create regional presence through collaboration with individual distributors responsible for defined market objectives supporting diverse points of sale. We will continue to operate as a direct-to-consumer retailer, and will continue to evolve its hybrid model aiming to balance network marketing strategies with and expanded distribution base through party plan strategies motivating individual channel throughout under an umbrella of marketing, validation and social media resources.

 

GelStat will market products with national digital reach and progressive regional incursions targeting concentrated market areas and designed to grow our distribution network. Our distributor network currently has both a Northeast and Southwest presence and we expect to expand to new locations.

 

Supply Chain

 

Our product manufacturing has been outsourced to date and, in the future, will be performed by a quality company willing and able to support future requirements. We are also seeking additional suppliers to improve our product’s cost, quality and presentation. We do not anticipate any issues related to locating such suppliers.

 

Competition

 

There is heavy competition in this market segment, with new competition being introduced to this market regularly, and with customers frequently changing their behavior, primarily to avoid prescription and narcotics, and to compensate for their increased tolerance to medications or supplements. Competition in this segment includes Koninklijke Philips N.V., Merck & Co., Sanofi, eVilbiss Healthcare LLC., Pfizer Inc., SleepMed Inc., Cadwell Laboratories Inc., Compumedics Limited, Natus Medical Incorporated, and GlaxoSmithKline plc. However, the aforementioned companies' primary products require prescription, creating an opportunity for GelStat Sleep, an effective OTC supplement, which has room to grow share in this massive segment through high volume marketing engagements and infomercial style marketing directed to social media platforms.

 

Intellectual Property

 

Our intellectual property consists of three key formulations for natural products addressing pain (migraine, and arthritis), insomnia and energy deficiency. The formulae for each of our supplements is proprietary. We are not intending to patent the formulae at this time due to the costs and our likelihood of receiving a patent. We intend to revisit this in the next few years.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

None.

  

Research and Development

 

In the past, hawse have worked with leading researchers to identify unique products that address large and underserved markets and has proven efficacy for products which are now in our pipeline. These products will be the next additions to our portfolio expanding our market reach. Additional target products have been identified that will improve and expand our legacy product offering including alternative delivery, additives, and combinations. Our research philosophy will continue forward looking to develop additional products to address additional ailments and markets.

 

Employees

 

We have two full-time employees and one part-time employee.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Overview

 

GelStat is a consumer health care company dedicated to the cost-effective development and marketing of over-the-counter (OTC) and other non-prescription consumer health care products. We are a Delaware company focused on offering non-CBD/non-nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory homeopathic drugs (non-NSAID) targeting consumer concerned with migraines, headaches, energy enhancement or sleep. We plan to introduce enhanced versions of our current line of products allowing for improved performance and focusing on prevention of symptoms when that formulation is supported by scientific research.

 

GelStat operates as a direct-to-consumer retailer and will continue to evolve its hybrid model looking to balance network marketing strategies with an expanded distribution base through party plan strategies motivating individual channel throughput under an umbrella of marketing, validation and social resources. In addition, we plan to market products with national digital reach and progressive regional incursions targeting concentrated market areas and designed to grow our distribution network.

 

Our primary source of working capital has been funds raised in the Regulation A+ offering and a convertible note. We have raised $100,000 through its sale of 33,333,333 shares of common stock through its Regulation A+ offering in 2021, and issued a convertible note in the amount of $120,000 in 2022, see “Recent Developments” below.

 

If the current outbreak of the coronavirus continues to grow, the effects of such a widespread infectious disease and epidemic may inhibit our ability to conduct our business and operations and could materially harm our Company. The coronavirus may cause us to have to reduce operations as a result of various lock-down procedures enacted by the local, state or federal government, which could restrict our ability to conduct our business operations. The coronavirus may also cause a decrease in spending on the types of products that we plan to offer, as a result of the economic turmoil resulting from the spread of the coronavirus and thereby having a negative effect on our ability to generate revenue from the sales of our products. The continued coronavirus outbreak may also restrict our ability to raise funding when needed and may also cause an overall decline in the economy as a whole. The specific and actual effects of the spread of coronavirus are difficult to assess at this time as the actual effects will depend on many factors beyond the control and knowledge of the Company. However, the spread of the coronavirus, if it continues, may cause an overall decline in the economy as a whole and also may materially harm our Company.  In addition, the continued spread of COVID-19 could disrupt our supply chain and the manufacture or shipment of our products, and other related activities, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. COVID-19 has also had an adverse impact on global economic conditions which could impair our ability to raise capital when needed.

 

Recent Developments

 

Settlement

 

On December 6, 2021, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement (“Agreement”) with both a former member of management and a major shareholder. Pursuant to the Agreement, neither party admitted liability, and entered into a mutual waiver and release claims. As a result of the Agreement, more than 100 million shares of common stock will be returned to the Company’s treasury in 2022 and will be available for issuance in the future.

 

Convertible Promissory Note

 

On February 23, 2022, the Company issued a $120,000 convertible note to an accredited investor. The note bears an interest rate of 0% per annum and is convertible into common stock of the Company at a fixed conversion rate of $0.003 per share of common stock. The holder of the note has the right to convert all or part of the principal and interest into common stock. The maturity date of the convertible note is February 26, 2024. In connection with the issuance of the convertible note, we issued a common stock purchase warrant to the same investor to purchase up to 10,000,000 shares of common stock. The common stock purchase warrant is exercisable through February 23, 2025 and exercisable at a rate of $0.003 per share of common stock.

 

Our auditor has identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting which could, if not remediated, result in material misstatements in our financial statements.

 

Although our auditor has concluded that our consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the results of operations, financial position, and cash flows of our company and its subsidiaries in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, our auditor has identified a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting related to the lack of segregation of accounting duties. Under standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, a material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected and corrected on a timely basis.

 

We are initiating remedial measures, but if our remedial measures are insufficient to address the material weakness, or if additional material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting are discovered or occur in the future, our consolidated financial statements may contain material misstatements, and we could be required to restate our financial results. If we are unable to successfully remediate this material weakness and if we are unable to produce accurate and timely financial statements, your investment in us may lose all or some of its value.

Principal Factors Affecting our Financial Performance

 

Our operating results are primarily affected by the following factors:

 

  our ability to access additional capital and the size and timing of subsequent financings;
     
  our ability to obtain funding required for the production of initial inventory as well as our operations;

 

  the rate of progress and cost of development activities;

 

  the cost and delays in product development that may result from changes in regulatory requirements applicable to our products;

 

  the costs of sales, marketing, and customer acquisition;

 

  willingness of healthcare providers to recommend our products; and

 

  the costs of compliance with any unforeseen regulatory obstacles or governmental mandates in any states or countries in which we seek to operate.

 

Results of Operations for Years Ended December 31, 2021 and 2020

 

Revenues

 

Revenues in 2021 increased by 78% or $3,072 in comparison to 2020, mostly as a direct result of initiating operations of Product sales via e-commerce marketing and orders.

 

We also increased our customer base in 2021 compared to our limited startup activity in 2020.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2021, our customer base and revenue streams were comprised of approximately 0% B2B (Wholesale Distributors and Enterprise Institutions) and 100% B2C (consumers who bought through our online ecommerce platform and through Amazon, Google, etc.).

 

During the year ended December 31, 2021, we had a customer base that reached 42 cities across nine states in the U.S. and three other countries.

 

Cost of goods sold

 

Cost of goods sold increased $1,606 during 2021 in comparison to 2020, primarily due to increased sales volume. As a result, total gross margin resulted in 58% in 2020.

 

Wages and benefits

 

Wages and benefits for 2021 increased $44,330 compared to year 2020, primarily as a result of increased operational requirements of operations.

 

Professional fees

 

Professional fees consist of costs attributable to consultants and contractors who primarily spent their time on legal, accounting, product development, and business development. Such costs increased $71,064 or 412% in 2021 compared to 2020. As a result, the Company believes it has complied with federal, state, local and shareholder obligations.

  

Sale and marketing expenses

 

Sales and marketing expenses increased $6,533 during 2021 in comparison to 2020, primarily due to product placement and consumer awareness efforts.

 

General and administrative

 

General and administrative costs during 2021 were $1,030 in comparison to 2020, mostly due to the implementation of processes and infrastructure to support renewed business operations. We expect these numbers to increase as we ramp up our overall business after the COVID crisis.

 

8 
 

 

Other expense/income, net

 

Other expense/income in 2021 was a net expense of $161,933, compared to 2020 where we had an expense of $291, a difference of 161,642.

 

Net loss

 

Net loss during 2021 increased by $297,405 in comparison to the net loss incurred during 2020, primarily as a net result of overall operating expenses.

 

On an earnings-per-share basis, we saw no material change in loss per share from ($0.00) in 2020 to ($0.00) in 2021.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources for Years Ended December 31, 2021 and 2020

 

As of December 31, 2021, we had $67,138 in cash and $142,290 of total current assets, and $498,338 of current liabilities, resulting in a working capital deficit of $356,048 compared to $767 in cash and a working capital deficit of approximately $230,085 as of December 31, 2020.

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $204,858 for 2021 compared to net cash used of $85,219 for 2020. The increase in net cash used in operating activities was largely attributed to net operating losses offset by accrued interest of note issuances and other accrued expenses. 

 

There was no net cash used for investing activities during 2021 or 2020.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities during 2021 was $271,229 and consisted of proceeds totaling $33,747 received from advances under CARE loans, proceeds from the sale of common stock of $100,000, proceeds from a convertible note in the amount of $50,000a loan in the amount of $87,482 from a related-party. Net cash by financing activities during 2020 was $33,750 received from advances under CARE loans and a loan from a related party in the amount of 51,095.

 

We expect to continue to generate revenues from our ongoing operations. We also expect to see new revenues as we continue to grow the customer base for GelStat Migraine. In 2022, we expect to introduce upgrades to GelStat Migraine, adding an oil-based version improving delivery and boosting terpenes to increase effectiveness.  We also expect improving our GelStat Sleep product. We stress that the improvements of these products are contingent on our ability to meet working capital needs and raise additional debt and equity in capital markets.  Our revenues are still unpredictable and may not be sufficient to fund all our operational needs. Accordingly, we anticipate that we will have negative cash flow from our operations and, therefore, will have to raise additional capital in order to fund our operations in 2022.

 

During years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, except for two government backed PPP loans, and the convertible notes described herein, the Company has not taken any new debt.

 

On May 1, 2020, the company entered into a promissory note (the “Note”) with Bank of America, which provides for a loan in the amount of $33,750 (the “Loan”) pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”).  The Loan has a two-year term and bears interest at a rate of 1.00% per annum (APR 1.014%).  Monthly principal and interest payments were deferred for seven months after the date of disbursement and was again extended an additional six months from the date of disbursement.  The Loan may be prepaid at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties.  The Company applied for the PPP loan forgiveness and this loan was forgiven.

 

On January 28, 2021, the Company entered into a second promissory note (the “Second Note”) with Bank of America, which provides for a loan in the amount of $33,747 (the “Second Loan”) pursuant to the Second Draw of the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”).  The Loan has a two-year term and bears interest at a rate of 1.00% per annum (APR 1.014%). Monthly principal and interest payments are deferred for seven months after the date of disbursement and was extended additional six months from the date of disbursement.  The Company applied for the PPP loan forgiveness and this loan was also forgiven.

 

In addition to continuing to incur normal operating expenses, we intend to continue our research and development efforts for our various products, including website development, and we also expect to further develop our sales, marketing and manufacturing programs associated with the commercialization of our products. We currently do not have sufficient capital on hand to fully fund our proposed research and development activities, which lack of product development may negatively affect our future revenues.

 

On July 8, 2021, GelStat issued a one-year $59,444 convertible note and received $50,000 in proceeds after discount and fees. This note bears no interest and is due July 8, 2022. GelStat also issued 25,000,000 shares and a five-year warrant to purchase 5,944,444 shares as additional consideration for this note.

Convertible Promissory Note

 

On February 23, 2022, the Company issued a $120,000 convertible note to an accredited investor. The note bears an interest rate of 0% per annum and is convertible into common stock of the Company at a fixed conversion rate of $0.003 per share of common stock. The holder of the note has the right to convert all or part of the principal and interest into common stock. The maturity date of the convertible note is February 26, 2024. In connection with the issuance of the convertible note, we issued a common stock purchase warrant to the same investor to purchase up to 10,000,000 shares of common stock. The common stock purchase warrant is exercisable through February 23, 2025 and exercisable at a rate of $0.003 per share of common stock.

 

As noted above, based on budgeted revenues and expenditures, unless revenues increase significantly, we believe that our existing and projected sources of liquidity may not be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements for the next twelve months. Accordingly, we will need to raise additional funds in 2022. The sale of additional equity securities will result in additional dilution to our existing stockholders. Sale of debt securities could involve substantial operational and financial covenants that might inhibit our ability to follow our business plan. Any additional funding that we obtain in a financing is likely to reduce the percentage ownership of the Company held by our existing security-holders. The amount of this dilution may be substantial based on our current stock price, and could increase if the trading price of our common stock declines at the time of any financing from its current levels. We may also attempt to raise funds through corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements. To the extent that we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements, we may be required to grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us. There can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain the needed additional funding, we may have to further reduce our current level of operations, or, may even have to totally discontinue our operations.

 

We are subject to many risks associated with early stage businesses, including the above discussed risks associated with the ability to raise capital. Please see the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Offering Circular for more information regarding risks associated with our business.

 

Plan of Operations

 

We have not yet generated any significant revenues. During the next twelve months, we plan to develop new products. Because we have identified potential in the Migraine and Sleep core products, we plan to invest resources in improving their packaging, delivery methods and usage recommendations in an attempt to promote lower costs and higher usage patterns.

 

Specifically, we plan to reintroduce Sleep with a new formulation, packaging and delivery. We believe this will support our complimentary plans to launch a new Migraine produce and improve sourcing, registration, commercial and distribution efforts to grow Migraine sales volumes. We aim to achieve positive cashflow within the next twelve (12) months while establishing an organic growth pattern increasing the product and brand potential during which new products are planned to be developed.

 

In parallel and with our affecting our path towards profitability and return to market, GelStat must initiate a development strategy to bring additional products and services to market. Therefore, we also plan to invest significant resources in research and development. We will continue to evaluate opportunities to grow through acquisition or synergy.

 

We believe the offering amount of proceeds will satisfy our cash requirements to implement our plan of operations for the next twelve (12) months.

 

Trends Information

 

GelStat Migraine has proven itself as a reliable solution for our customers. Nine out of ten new customers developed repetitive purchase patterns which can be grouped in three main categories based on their cadence: migraines more than a month apart, migraines every month and several migraines per month.

 

GelStat also benefitted from the shift to e-business and online marketing having positive results and conversion on Google, Bing and Amazon platforms; allowing us to grow our customer base by an average of 40% on every campaign across platforms.

 

Consumer demand continues to shift towards products with healthier impact on their bodies and reduce risks of addition, overdose, or organ damage, thus trying to avoid prescription drugs and NSAIDs.

Regulatory Matters

 

Our products are subject to government regulation, both in the United States and abroad, which could increase our costs significantly and limit or prevent the sale of our products. The sale, advertisement and promotion of foods, dietary supplements, vitamins, minerals, herbal and homeopathic products and cosmetics that we sell are subject to regulation by the FDA, FTC, USPS, the U.S. Department of Agriculture and state regulatory authorities. Any of these government agencies, as well as legislative bodies, can change existing regulations, or impose new ones, or could take aggressive measures, causing or contributing to a variety of negative consequences, including:

 

  · requirements for the reformulation of products to meet new standards,

 

  · the recall or discontinuance of products,

 

  · additional record keeping,

 

  · expanded documentation of the properties of products,

 

  · expanded or different labeling,

 

  · adverse event tracking and reporting and

 

  · additional scientific substantiation.

 

Any or all of these requirements could have a material adverse effect on us. There can be no assurance that the regulatory environment in which we operate will not change or that such regulatory environment, or any specific action taken against us, will not result in a material adverse effect on us

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We did not have during the periods presented, and we do not currently have, any off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Going Concern

 

Our independent auditor has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern given our lack of operating history and the fact that we have had nominal revenues to date. Furthermore, our auditor identified material weaknesses. Our future is dependent upon our ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations. These factors raise substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern.

 

Regulation A Offering

 

We launched a Regulation A offering on December 18, 2021. To date, 33,333,333 shares of common stock were sold to one investor at a price of $0.003 per share. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, the amount raised pursuant to the Regulation A offering totaled $100,000, which we have used for working capital.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any.

Corporate Governance

 

The Company promotes accountability for adherence to honest and ethical conduct; endeavors to provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) and in other public communications made by the Company; and strives to be compliant with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations. The Company has not formally adopted a written code of business conduct and ethics that governs the Company’s employees, officers and Directors as the Company is not required to do so.

 

In lieu of an Audit Committee, the Company’s Board of Directors, is responsible for reviewing and making recommendations concerning the selection of outside auditors, reviewing the scope, results and effectiveness of the annual audit of the Company’s financial statements and other services provided by the Company’s independent public accountants. The Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company review the Company’s internal accounting controls, practices and policies.

 

Committees of the Board

 

Our Company currently does not have nominating, compensation, or audit committees or committees performing similar functions nor does our Company have a written nominating, compensation or audit committee charter. Our Directors believe that it is not necessary to have such committees, at this time, because the Directors can adequately perform the functions of such committees.

  1. bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time;

Code of Ethics

 

We have not adopted a formal Code of Ethics. The Board of Directors evaluated the business of the Company and the number of employees and determined that since the business is operated by a small number of persons, general rules of fiduciary duty and federal and state criminal, business conduct and securities laws are adequate ethical guidelines. In the event our operations, employees and/or Directors expand in the future, we may take actions to adopt a formal Code of Ethics.

 

Shareholder Proposals

 

We do not have any defined policy or procedural requirements for shareholders to submit recommendations or nominations for Directors. The Board of Directors believes that, given the stage of our development, a specific nominating policy would be premature and of little assistance until our business operations develop to a more advanced level. We do not currently have any specific or minimum criteria for the election of nominees to the Board of Directors or any specific process or procedure for evaluating such nominees. The Board of Directors will assess all candidates, whether submitted by management or shareholders, and make recommendations for election or appointment.

 

A shareholder who wishes to communicate with our Board of Directors may do so by directing a written request addressed to our President, at the address appearing on the first page of this Form 1-K.

Beneficial ownership has been determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act. Under this rule, certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire shares (for example, upon exercise of an option or warrant) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person by reason of such acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in the following table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual voting power at any particular date.

Other than disclosed herein, none of the members of the Board, the Company’s executive officers, or other affiliates have or will be involved in a material company transaction as of the date of this Form 1-K.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

 

To the Board of Directors and

Stockholders of GelStat Corporation

Stuart, FL 34997-7258

 

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of GelStat Corporation, (the “Company”), as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 2, the Company has a significant working capital deficiency, has incurred significant losses, and needs to raise additional funds to meet its obligations and sustain its operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

GELSTAT CORPORATION

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2021 and 2020

 

NOTE 1 - Business

 

GelStat Corporation ("the Company" or "GelStat") is a consumer health care company dedicated to the cost-effective development and marketing of over-the-counter (OTC) and other non-prescription consumer health care products. Our efforts are focused on proprietary, innovative products that address the multi-billion-dollar global markets.

 

In March 2020, a new CEO was appointed. In July 2020, the CEO initiated operations with the purchase of inventory and leasing of office and warehouse space. In late 2020, the Company began reengaging with capital markets and seeking additional financing which is ongoing at this time.

 

 

NOTE 2- Liquidity and Going Concern

 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company had a net loss of $475,243 for the year ended December 31 2021. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $9,267,062 and a stockholders’ deficit of $19,474,120 as of December 31, 2021 and used $204,858 in cash flow from operating activities for the year then ended.

 

Management believes these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months from the date these financial statements were issued. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon profitable future operations, positive cash flows, and additional financing.

 

Management intends to raise money through a Regulation A Funding, which through December 31, 2021 raised a total of $100,000 of the $5,000,000 offering. Such funds will enable the company to develop and markets its products and for its working capital needs. Management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in completing these undertakings and accomplishing any of its plans.

 

 

NOTE 3 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) under the accrual basis of accounting.

 

Management's Estimates

 

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The Company’s significant estimates include, the valuation of inventories and the realizability of income tax assets Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company’s financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of its cash. The Company places its cash with financial institutions of high credit worthiness. At times, its cash with a particular financial institution may exceed any applicable government insurance limits. The Company’s management plans to assess the financial strength and credit worthiness of any parties to which it is a credit counterparty, and as such, it believes that any associated credit risk exposures are limited.

GELSTAT CORPORATION

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2021 and 2020

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company is undertaking a new business venture that is inherently subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including financial, operational, technological and other risks that could potentially have a risk of business failure.

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.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivables are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company did not record an allowance for uncollectible accounts.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are valued using average actual cost. Inventory items replaced by an alternative and rendered unusable or diminished in value are considered to be obsolete. Obsolete inventory items are written down to zero.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

In accordance with ASC 606 revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products and/or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products and services. The Company currently sells its products through direct, retail and distributor sales channels with a national reach across the USA. The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of a customer or distributor arrangement exists, shipment has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable, and the sales revenues are considered collectible. Subject to these criteria, the Company recognizes revenue at the time of shipment of the merchandise to the retail customer.

 

Cost of Revenue

 

Cost of revenues consists primarily of product costs and shipping and handling, which are directly attributable to the sale of products.

 

Advertising

 

Advertising costs, including the cost of promotional products, which totaled $8,211 and $1,678 for the year end December 31, 2021 and 2020, are charged to operations when incurred.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company accounts for impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, (“ASC 360”). Long-lived assets consist primarily of property, plant and equipment. In accordance with ASC 360, the Company periodically evaluates long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When triggering event indicators are present, the Company obtains appraisals on an asset-by-asset basis and will recognize an impairment loss when the sum of the appraised values is less than the carrying amounts of such assets. The appraised values, based on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections, require subjective judgments. Depending on the assumptions and estimates used, the appraised values projected in the evaluation of long-lived assets can vary within a range of outcomes. The appraisals consider the likelihood of possible outcomes in determining the best estimate for the value of the assets. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company did not record any impairment losses.

GELSTAT CORPORATION

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2021 and 2020

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income tax using Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC 740”) “Accounting for Income Taxes”, which requires the asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. Under this approach, deferred income taxes are provided for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, and for the expected future tax benefits from loss carry-forwards and provisions, if any. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected in the years of recovery or reversal and the effect from a change in tax rates is recognized in the statement of operations and comprehensive income in the period of enactment. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion of, or all of, the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

Earnings or Loss per Common Share

 

Basic earnings or loss per share is calculated as the income or loss attributable to common stockholders divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings or loss per share is calculated by dividing the net income or loss attributable to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software: Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract”, which aligns the requirement for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. This ASU is effective for years beginning after December 15, 2020.

 

On July 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The standard modifies the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements by removing, modifying, or adding certain disclosures. The adoption of ASU 2018-13 did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

 

There are no other recent accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.
