NOTE 2 - ORGANIZATION, NATURE OF BUSINESS AND GOING CONCERN | Cosmos Holdings, Inc. ("us", "we", or the "Company") was incorporated in the State of Nevada under the name Prime Estates and Developments, Inc. on July 21, 2009. On November 14, 2013, we changed our name to Cosmos Holdings Inc. On September 27, 2013, the Company, closed a reverse take-over transaction by which it acquired a private company whose principal activities are the trading of products, providing representation, and provision of consulting services to various sectors. Pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement between the Registrant and Amplerissimo Ltd, a company incorporated in Cyprus (“Amplerissimo”), the Company acquired 100% of Amplerissimo’s issued and outstanding common stock. As a result of the reverse take-over transaction, Amplerissimo became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. On August 1, 2014, the Company, through its Cypriot subsidiary Amplerissimo, formed SkyPharm S.A. a Greek corporation (“SkyPharm”) a subsidiary that focuses on the trading, sourcing and distribution of pharmaceutical products. In February 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of Decahedron Ltd, a UK corporation (“Decahedron”) consummating the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase Agreement, dated November 17, 2016 as amended (the “Decahedron SPA”). Pursuant to the terms of the Decahedron SPA, the shareholders of Decahedron received an aggregate of 170,000 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Stock Consideration”), which were delivered following the closing in exchange for all of the Ordinary Shares of Decahedron for the Stock Consideration. Decahedron is a fully licensed wholesaler of pharmaceutical products and its primary activity is the distribution, import and export of pharmaceuticals. In accordance with the terms of the SPA, Mr. Lazarou remained as a director and officer of Decahedron. On November 21, 2017, the Company effected a one-for-ten (1:10) reverse stock split whereby the Company decreased, by a ratio of one-for-ten (1:10) the number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. Proportional adjustments for the reverse stock split were made to the Company’s outstanding stock options, and warrants including all share and per-share data, for all amounts and periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. The Company is one of the world’s most rapidly growing pharmaceutical trading, sourcing and distribution companies. We are currently focusing on expanding the existing operations of our subsidiaries and continuing to make progress towards becoming a Global Specialty Pharmaceutical Company. The Company’s focus is on Branded Pharmaceuticals, Over-the-Counter (OTC) medicines, and Generic Pharmaceuticals. The Company also intends to enter the nutraceutical market and to continue to target areas where we can build and maintain a strong position. The Company uses a differentiated operating model based on a lean, nimble, and decentralized structure, with emphasis on actively pursuing low risk license acquisitions, as well as investing in Research & Development, particularly on pharmaceutical and nutraceutical products with inherently lower risk profiles and clearly defined regulatory pathways. Our operating model and the execution of our Corporate Strategy are enabling the Company to adapt to market realities and customer needs, achieve sustainable growth, and create shareholder value. We regularly evaluate and, where appropriate, execute on opportunities to expand through the acquisition of branded pharmaceutical products and pharmaceutical companies in areas that will serve patients that we believe will offer above average growth characteristics and attractive margins. In particular, we look to continue to enhance our pharmaceutical and over the counter product lines by acquiring or licensing rights to additional products and regularly evaluate selective acquisition and licensing opportunities. We believe that the demand for reasonably-priced medicines, delivered in the highest quality, and constantly matching the requirements of reliable and comprehensive medical care, is set to increase in the years to come, with the population’s increasing life expectancy. With our product portfolio of non-patented and patented medicines, we contribute to the optimization of efficient medicinal care, and thereby to lowering costs both for health insurance funds and companies and for patients. Our principal office is located at 141 W. Jackson Blvd, Suite 4236, Chicago, Illinois 60604 Telephone: 312-536-3102. The Company's website can be found at the following URL: www.cosmosholdingsinc.com. Going Concern The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company generated a net loss of $3,055,802 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and has a working capital deficit of $5,775,611 and an accumulated deficit of $10,267,789 as of March 31, 2018. These conditions raise substantial doubt of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has not yet established an adequate ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease development of operations. In order to continue as a going concern, develop a reliable source of revenues, and achieve a profitable level of operations, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plans to continue as a going concern include raising additional capital through increased sales of product and by sale of equity. However, management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Financial Statement Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Principles of Consolidation Our consolidated accounts include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Amplerissimo Ltd, SkyPharm S.A. and Decahedron Ltd. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Reclassifications to Prior Period Financial Statements and Adjustments Certain reclassifications have been made in the Company’s financial statements of the prior year to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications have no impact on previously reported net income. Use of Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Cash and Cash Equivalents For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, there were no cash equivalents. The Company maintains bank accounts in the United States denominated in U.S. Dollars and in the Republic of Cyprus, in Greece and in Bulgaria all of them denominated in Euros. The Company also maintains bank accounts in the United Kingdom of Great Britain, dominated in Euros and Great Britain Pound (British Pounds Sterling). Account Receivable Accounts receivable are stated at their net realizable value. The allowance for doubtful accounts against gross accounts receivable reflects the best estimate of probable losses inherent in the receivables portfolio determined on the basis of historical experience, specific allowances for known troubled accounts and other currently available information. Tax Receivables The Company pays Value Added Tax (“VAT”) or similar taxes (“input VAT”), income taxes, and other taxes within the normal course of its business in most of the countries in which it operates related to the procurement of merchandise and/or services it acquires and/or on sales and taxable income. The Company also collects VAT or similar taxes on behalf of the government (“output VAT”) for merchandise and/or services it sells. If the output VAT exceeds the input VAT, this creates a VAT payable to the government. If the input VAT exceeds the output VAT, this creates a VAT receivable from the government. The VAT tax return is filed on a monthly basis offsetting the payables against the receivables. In observance of EU regulations for intra-EU cross-border sales, our subsidiary in Greece, SkyPharm S.A., does not charge VAT for sales to wholesale drug distributors registered in other European Union member states. Inventory Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market value using the weighted average method. Inventory consists primarily of finished goods and packaging materials, i.e. packaged pharmaceutical products and the wrappers and containers they are sold in. A periodic inventory system is maintained by 100% count. Inventory is replaced periodically to maintain the optimum stock on hand available for immediate shipment. We write-down inventories to net realizable value based on forecasted demand and market conditions, which may differ from actual results. Fixed Assets Fixed assets are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the useful lives (except for leasehold improvements which are depreciated over the lesser of the lease term or the useful life) of the assets as follows:
|  | Estimated Useful Life |
Furniture and fixtures |  | 5-7 years |
Office and computer equipment |  | 3-5 years |
Depreciation expense was $5,667 and $3,168 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Intangible Assets Intangible assets with definite useful lives are recorded on the basis of cost and are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The Company uses a useful life of 5 years for an import/export license. The Company evaluates the remaining useful life of intangible assets annually to determine whether events and circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining amortization period. If the estimate of the intangible asset’s remaining useful life is changed, the remaining carrying amount of the intangible asset will be amortized prospectively over that revised remaining useful life. At March 31, 2018, no revision to the remaining amortization period of the intangible assets was made. Amortization expense was $2,129 and $1,974 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets In accordance with ASC 360-10, Long-lived assets, which include property and equipment and intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated undiscounted future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the assets. Fair value is generally determined using the asset’s expected future discounted cash flows or market value, if readily determinable. Goodwill and Intangibles The Company periodically reviews the carrying value of intangible assets not subject to amortization, including goodwill, to determine whether impairment may exist. Goodwill and certain intangible assets are assessed annually, or when certain triggering events occur, for impairment using fair value measurement techniques. These events could include a significant change in the business climate, legal factors, a decline in operating performance, competition, sale or disposition of a significant portion of the business, or other factors. Specifically, goodwill impairment is determined using a two-step process. The first step of the goodwill impairment test is used to identify potential impairment by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill. The Company uses level 3 inputs and a discounted cash flow methodology to estimate the fair value of a reporting unit. A discounted cash flow analysis requires one to make various judgmental assumptions including assumptions about future cash flows, growth rates, and discount rates. The assumptions about future cash flows and growth rates are based on the Company’s budget and long-term plans. Discount rate assumptions are based on an assessment of the risk inherent in the respective reporting units. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired and the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. The second step of the goodwill impairment test compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination. That is, the fair value of the reporting unit is allocated to all of the assets and liabilities of that unit (including any unrecognized intangible assets) as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination and the fair value of the reporting unit was the purchase price paid to acquire the reporting unit. Prior to the acquisition of Decahedron, the Company had no recorded goodwill value. As a result of the acquisition of Decahedron, the Company tested and expensed 100% of the goodwill allocated to the acquisition costs, an amount equal to $1,949,884 for the period ending March 31, 2017. Fair Value Measurement The Company adopted FASB ASC 820-Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, or ASC 820, for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC 820 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to existing generally accepted accounting principles that require the use of fair value measurements establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements. The adoption of ASC 820 did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position or operating results, but did expand certain disclosures. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, ASC 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized below: Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore developed using estimates and assumptions developed by us, which reflect those that a market participant would use. The Company did not have any Level 2 or Level 3 assets or liabilities as of March 31, 2018. Cash is considered to be highly liquid and easily tradable as of March 31, 2018 and therefore classified as Level 1 within our fair value hierarchy. In addition, FASB ASC 825-10-25 Fair Value Option, or ASC 825-10-25, was effective for January 1, 2008. ASC 825-10-25 expands opportunities to use fair value measurements in financial reporting and permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The Company did not elect the fair value options for any of its qualifying financial instruments. Revenue Recognition The Company adopted Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers on January 1, 2018. As a result, it has changed its accounting policy for revenue recognition as detailed below. Revenue is measured based on consideration specified in a contract with a customer. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a product to a customer. These criteria are assumed to have been met upon delivery of the products requested by the customer to the customers carrier. Hence, adoption of the ASC 606, has not changed the timing and nature of the Company’s revenue recognition. Stock-based Compensation The Company records stock based compensation in accordance with ASC section 718, “Stock Compensation” and Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 107 (SAB 107) issued by the SEC in March 2005 regarding its interpretation of ASC 718. ASC 718 requires the fair value of all stock-based employee compensation awarded to employees to be recorded as an expense over the related requisite service period. The Company values any employee or non-employee stock based compensation at fair value using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. The Company accounts for non-employee share-based awards in accordance with the measurement and recognition criteria of ASC 505-50 “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”. Foreign Currency Translations and Transactions Assets and liabilities of all foreign operations are translated at year-end rates of exchange, and the statements of operations are translated at the average rates of exchange for the year. Gains or losses resulting from translating foreign currency financial statements are accumulated in a separate component of stockholders’ equity until the entity is sold or substantially liquidated. Gains or losses from foreign currency transactions (transactions denominated in a currency other than the entity’s local currency) are included in net earnings. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, as required by the accounting standard for income taxes ASC 740. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis, as well as net operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company is liable for income taxes in the Republic of Cyprus, Greece and the United Kingdom of England. The corporate income tax rate in Cyprus is 12.5%, 29% in Greece (tax losses are carried forward for five years effective January 1, 2013) and 20% in United Kingdom of England. Losses may also be subject to limitation under certain rules regarding change of ownership. We regularly review deferred tax assets to assess their potential realization and establish a valuation allowance for portions of such assets to reduce the carrying value if we do not consider it to be more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. Our review includes evaluating both positive (e.g., sources of taxable income) and negative (e.g., recent historical losses) evidence that could impact the realizability of our deferred tax assets. At March 31, 2018 the Company has maintained a valuation allowance against all net deferred tax assets in each jurisdiction in which it is subject to income tax. We recognize the impact of an uncertain tax position in our financial statements if, in management’s judgment, the position is not more-likely-then-not sustainable upon audit based on the position’s technical merits. This involves the identification of potential uncertain tax positions, the evaluation of applicable tax laws and an assessment of whether a liability for an uncertain tax position is necessary. As of March 31, 2018 the Company has no uncertain tax positions recorded in any jurisdiction where it is subject to income tax. Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Common Share Basic and diluted net loss per share calculations are calculated on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented. The per share amounts include the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents in periods with net income. Basic and diluted net loss per share for each of the periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 is the same due to the anti-dilutive nature of potential common stock equivalents. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), which simplifies the measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the current goodwill impairment test in the event that there is evidence of an impairment based on qualitative or quantitative assessments. ASU 2017-04 does not change how the goodwill impairment is identified, and the Company will continue to perform a qualitative assessment annually to determine whether the two step impairment test is required. Until the adoption, current accounting standards require the impairment loss to be recognized under Step 2 of the impairment test. This requires the Company to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill by assigning fair value to the reporting unit’s assets and liabilities as if the reporting unit has been acquired in a business combination, then subsequently subtracting the implied goodwill from the carrying amount of the goodwill. The new standard would require the Company to determine the fair value of the reporting unit and subtract the carrying value from the fair value of the reporting unit to determine if there is an impairment. ASU 2017-04 is effective for the Company for fiscal years after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted. ASU 2017-04 is required to be adopted prospectively, and the adoption is effective for annual goodwill impairment tests performed in the year of adoption. The Company does not believe that the adoption of ASU No. 2017-04 will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or the Company’s consolidated results of operations In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, “Clarifying the Definition of a Business,” with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as an acquisition of assets or a business. ASU No. 2017-01 is effective for the Company’s fiscal year commencing on January 1, 2018. The effect of this guidance is to be applied prospectively and early adoption is permitted. The Company does not believe that the adoption of ASU No. 2017-01 will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or the Company’s consolidated results of operations. In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases,” which will require lessees to recognize assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by most leases on the balance sheet. The changes become effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning July 1, 2019. Modified retrospective adoption for all leases existing at, or entered into after, the date of initial application, is required with an option to use certain transition relief. The Company expects this ASU will increase its current assets and current liabilities, but have no net material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory, Topic 0330 (ASU No 2015-11). ASU 2015-11 changes the measurement principle for inventory from the lower of cost or market to lower of cost or net realizable value. The new standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2017, applying it prospectively. The adoption of ASU 2015-11 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09-Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The guidance requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The FASB delayed the effective date to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Earlier application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. In addition, in March and April 2016, the FASB issued new guidance intended to improve the operability and understandability of the implementation guidance on principal versus agent considerations. Both amendments permit the use of either a retrospective or cumulative effect transition method and are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017, with early application permitted. As of January 1, 2018, the Company has adopted the ASC 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers and recognizes revenue at the point in time at which the customer obtains control of the entity and the Company has satisfied its performance obligations. The adoption of ASC 606 did not materially impact the timing or amount of revenues that would otherwise be recognized.
