Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | NOTE 10 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Royalty Agreements During 2016, Conversion Labs PR entered into a sole and exclusive license, royalty and advisory agreement with Pilaris Laboratories, LLC (“Pilaris”) relating to Pilaris’ PilarisMax shampoo formulation and conditioner. The term of the agreement will be the life of the US Patent held by Pilaris, ten years. As consideration for granting Conversion Labs PR this license, Pilaris will receive on quarterly basis, 10% of the net income collected by the licensed products based on the following formula: Net Income = total income – cost of goods sold – advertising and operating expenses directly related to the marketing of the licensed products. As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, approximately $0 and $5 thousand, respectively, was included in accrued expenses in regard to this agreement. The Company paid Pilaris approximately $5 thousand and $138 thousand during the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, in regard to this agreement. During 2018, the Company entered into a license agreement (the “Alphabet Agreement”) with M.ALPHABET, LLC (“Alphabet”), pursuant to which Alphabet agreed to license its PURPUREX business which consists of methods and compositions developed by Alphabet for the treatment of purpura, bruising, post-procedural bruising, and traumatic bruising (the “Product Line”). Pursuant to the license granted under the Alphabet Agreement, Conversion Labs PR obtains an exclusive license to incorporate (i) any intellectual property rights related to the Product Line and (ii) all designs, drawings, formulas, chemical compositions and specifications used or useable in the Product Line into one or more products manufactured, sold, and/or distributed by Alphabet for the treatment of purpura, bruising, post-procedural bruising and traumatic bruising and for all other fields of use or purposes (the “Licensed Product(s)”), and to make, have made, advertise, promote, market, sell, import, export, use, offer to sell, and distribute the Licensed Product(s) throughout the world with the exception of China, Hong Kong, Japan, and Australia (the “License”). The Company shall pay Alphabet a royalty equal to 13% of Gross Receipts (as defined in the Agreement) realized from the sales of Licensed Products. No amounts were earned or owed as of December 31, 2024. Upon execution of the Alphabet Agreement, Alphabet was granted a 10-year stock option to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $2.50. Further, if Licensed Products have gross receipts of $7.5 million in any calendar year, the Company will grant Alphabet an option to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $2.50; (ii) if Licensed Products have gross receipts of $10.0 million in any calendar year, the Company will grant Alphabet an additional option to purchase 20,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $2.50 and (iii) if Licensed Products have gross receipts of $20.0 million in any calendar year, the Company will grant Alphabet an option to purchase 40,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $3.75. The likelihood of meeting these performance goals for the licensed products are remote and, therefore, the Company has not recognized any compensation. Purchase Commitments Many of the Company’s vendors require product deposits when a purchase order is placed for goods or fulfillment services related to inventory requirements. The Company’s history of product deposits with its inventory vendors, creates an implicit purchase commitment equaling the total expected product acceptance cost in excess of the product deposit. As of December 31, 2024, the Company approximates its implicit purchase commitments to be approximately $479 thousand. Legal Matters In the normal course of business operations, the Company may become involved in various legal matters. As of December 31, 2024, other than as set forth below, the Company’s management does not believe that there are any potential legal matters that could have an adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position. On August 23, 2023, a purported putative class action complaint captioned Marden v. LifeMD, Inc., Case No. 23-cv-07469, was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Marden Complaint”) against the Company’s RexMD brand. The Marden Complaint alleges, inter alia, unauthorized disclosure of certain information of class members to third parties. On November 21, 2023, the plaintiffs amended the Marden Complaint. On March 4, 2024, the Company moved to dismiss the Marden Complaint, and that motion is pending. On July 12, 2024, the parties attended a mediation. On November 1, 2024, the plaintiffs filed a notice of voluntary dismissal of the Southern District of New York case. On November 25, 2024, the plaintiffs refiled the case via a new complaint captioned W.M.F. & Matthew Marden v. LifeMD, Inc., Case No. A-24-906800-C, in the District Court of Clark County, Nevada. The results of legal proceedings are inherently uncertain, and the best estimate of cost is reflected in the Company’s financial results. On September 5, 2023, the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) issued a notice of deficiency to the Company in which the IRS asserted an income tax deficiency of approximately $1.9 million for the Company’s tax year ending December 31, 2019. The Company timely filed a petition in the United States Tax Court disputing all of the proposed tax deficiency. The case was subsequently transferred to the Appeals Division of the IRS. Upon review of the amended return, IRS Appeals agreed to accept the amended return as filed, which resolves all of the issues asserted in the notice of deficiency. The Company is in the process of finalizing the steps with the IRS to agree upon a decision document that will be filed by the Tax Court and will resolve all issues in the case in the Company’s favor.
