NOTE 8 – CAPITAL STRUCTURE

 

Preferred Stock

 

The Company is authorized to issue 100 million shares of preferred stock, of which 6,000,000 are designated as Series A convertible preferred stock. The preferred stock has a liquidation preference over the common stock and is non-voting. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, all Series A convertible preferred stock had been converted and no preferred shares were issued and outstanding.

Major Rights & Preferences of Series A Preferred Stock

 

On and effective October 4, 2021, the Company amended and restated its articles of incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Articles”) and filed a certificate of designation (the “COD”) for its Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) with the State of Nevada. The Amended and Restated Articles allow the Company’s Board of Directors the authority to authorize the issuance of preferred stock from time to time in one or more classes or series by resolution. On February 23, 2022, the Company filed Correction No. 1 to the COD. On July 28, 2022, the Company filed an Amendment to the COD with the State of Nevada to allow a holder to waive application of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation with respect to the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock.

 

The Series A Preferred Stock was initially convertible into the Company’s common stock as determined by dividing the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be converted by the lower of (i) $75.00 or (ii) 80% of the average volume weighted average price for the Company’s common stock for the five (5) trading days immediately following the effectiveness of the registration statement concerning the shares (the “Conversion Price”). On June 14, 2022, the Conversion Price was reset to $15.54 per share.

 

Each holder was entitled to receive dividends in shares of Series A Preferred Stock or cash determined based on the stated value of each Series A Preferred Stock at the dividend rate of 8.0% per year. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the cumulative accrued dividend has been recorded as mezzanine equity in the amount of $372,414. The Company had not issued shares of Series A Preferred Stock or cash for the accrued dividends as of September 30, 2023.

 

On February 28, 2022, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement, or the Purchase Agreement, with certain investors and an insider for a private placement of the Company’s securities (the “Private Placement”).

 

The Private Placement consisted of the sale of 6,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, or the Series A Shares, at a price of $1,000 per share, and 80,000 warrants to purchase shares of common stock, or the Warrants, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $6 million. The Warrants were initially exercisable to purchase shares of common stock at $82.50 per share, or 110% of the Series A Shares initial conversion price and will expire five and one-half years following the initial exercise date of the Warrants. The Company determined that the 80,000 warrants were additional value being distributed to the preferred stockholders and presented the warrants’ fair value of $5,788,493 as a deemed dividend on issuance of warrants in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following terms: a) exercise price of $82.50, b) common stock fair value of $85.50, c) volatility of 118%, d) discount rate of 1.71%, e) term of 5.50 years and f) dividend rate of 0%.

 

The closing of the Private Placement occurred on February 28, 2022. As a condition to the closing of the sale, the Company’s common stock received conditional approval for listing and trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market and commenced trading on February 28, 2022, under the trading symbol, COSM. Concurrent with the issuance of the Series A Shares, the Company executed a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) to register the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series A Shares and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants issued in connection with the Series A Shares. The Company was required to file its initial registration statement within 45 days following February 28, 2022. The effectiveness date was required to be 60 days after February 28, 2022, or 75 days following the SEC’s full review, and any additional registration statements that may be required are to be filed within 20 days following the date required by the SEC. The Company failed to timely file its initial registration statement and thus paid each holder 2% of the subscription amount in cash.

Mezzanine Equity

 

The Series A Shares were recorded at its initial net carrying value in the amount of $5,452,300. The Series A Shares were recorded as mezzanine equity in accordance with ASC 480 as the Company was potentially obligated to issue a variable number of shares at a fixed price known at inception and there was no maximum number of shares that could potentially be issued upon conversion. In this instance, cash settlement would have been presumed. Immediately upon effectiveness of the registration statement registering for resale of all the common stock issuable under the Series A Shares, all outstanding Series A Shares were automatically converted into common stock.

 

As of December 31, 2022, 6,000 of the Series A Shares had been converted into 386,588 shares of common stock in accordance with the terms of the agreements and thus an amount of $5,452,300 was reclassified from mezzanine equity to common stock and additional paid-in capital, in the aggregate.
