We are an internet based direct response marketing company that in-licenses, acquires or creates innovative and proprietary products that can be sold to consumers around the world via our technology infrastructure and relationships with agencies, third party marketers, and online advertising platforms such as Facebook and Google. We currently have two commercial stage products and intend to launch an additional four products in 2018. Our leading product, launched in the second quarter of 2017, is a patented shampoo, conditioner, and leave-in foamer for thicker, fuller hair. Our second product, launched in the first quarter of 2018, is a nutritional supplement for immune support.

 

In 2015, the Company formed a joint venture domiciled in Puerto Rico, Innate Skincare, LLC (“Innate”). Under the terms of the joint venture agreement, the Company held a 33.3% equity interest, and a 51% controlling voting interest, in Innate. On January 20, 2016, Innate amended its limited liability company operating agreement and changed its legal name to Immudyne PR LLC (“Immudyne PR”). On April 1, 2016, Immudyne PR further amended its operating agreement and restated the Company’s ownership and voting interest in Immudyne PR increasing its ownership to 78.1667% resulting in a charge to noncontrolling interest and additional paid-in-capital of $91,612. Immudyne PR was formed to launch a complete skin care regime formulated using strategic ingredients provided by the Company. In the second quarter of 2017, Immudyne PR expanded their product line and launched their in-licensed patented hair loss shampoo and conditioner.

 

Throughout 2017, we manufactured, distributed and sold natural immune support products containing our proprietary yeast beta glucans, a group of beta glucans naturally occurring in the cell walls of yeast that have been shown through testing and analysis to support the immune system. Beta glucans, or β-Glucans, are a natural extract that are considered to be “biological response modifiers” that support the immune system. The most common sources of beta glucans are from the cell walls of baker’s yeast, the cellulose in plants, the bran of cereal grains and certain fungi and bacteria.

 

In 2017, our yeast beta glucan nutraceutical and cosmetic product lines consisted of our natural, premium yeast beta glucans in oral and topical applications. We offered our yeast beta glucans as natural raw material ingredients in bulk quantities, our “Nutraceutical and Cosmetic Additives” segment, and finished, consumer products packaged under our brands as well as private label brands, our “Finished Cosmetic Products” segment, which were marketed directly to consumers.

 

In the first quarter of 2018 we sold assets and certain liabilities related to our legacy business that manufactured raw yeast beta glucan. As a result of this divestiture, we solely operate our online direct marketing business owned by Immudyne PR. 

 

The Company has funded operations in the past through the sales of its products, issuance of common stock and through loans and advances from officers and directors. The Company’s continued operations are dependent upon obtaining an increase in its sales volume and the continued financial support from officers and directors or the issuance of additional shares of common stock.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which assumes the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. At March 31, 2018, the Company has an accumulated deficit approximating $10.3 million and has incurred negative cash flows from operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Based on the Company’s cash balance at March 31, 2018, and projected cash needs for 2018, management estimates that it will need to increase sales revenue and/or raise additional capital to cover operating and capital requirements for the 2018 fiscal year. Management will need to raise the additional needed funds through increased sales volume, issuing additional shares of common stock or other equity securities, or obtaining debt financing. Although management has been successful to date in raising necessary funding, there can be no assurance that sales revenue will substantially increase or that any required future financing can be successfully completed on a timely basis, or on terms acceptable to the Company.
