Going Concern

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which contemplates the continuation of the Company as a going concern. For the year ended period December 31, 2023, the Company had revenue of $53,376,874, net loss of $18,542,654 and net cash used in operations of $14,998,919. Additionally, as of December 31, 2023, the Company had positive working capital of $12,285,310, an accumulated deficit of $91,644,233, and stockholders’ equity of $36,043,028. It is management’s opinion that these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of 12 months from the date of this filing.

The Company’s revenues are not able to sustain its operations, and concerns exist regarding the Company’s ability to meet its obligations as they become due. The Company is subject to a number of risks to those of smaller commercial companies, including dependence on key individuals and products, the difficulties inherent in the development of a commercial market, the need to obtain additional capital, competition from larger companies, and other pharmaceutical and health care companies.

 

Management evaluated the above conditions which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern to determine if it can meet its obligations for the subsequent 12 months from the date of this filing. Management considered its ability to access future capital, curtail expenses if needed, expand product lines, and acquire new products.

 

Management’s plans include expansion of brand name products to the market, expanding the current product portfolio, and evaluating acquisition targets to expand distribution. Furthermore, the Company intends to vertically integrate the supply chain distribution network. Finally, the Company plans to access the capital markets further in order to raise additional funds through equity offerings. More specifically, management will consider postponing the repayment of its outstanding Trade Facility ($1,908,195 balance as of December 31, 2023), intends to make substantial efforts to receive additional debt financing in conjunction with utilizing potential equity proceeds by its outstanding warrants. Moreover, the Company’s management is considering of postponing certain repayments of suppliers and creditors. 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 herein and eventually secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations.

 

Considering the above, management is of the view that substantial doubt exists for the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
