NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Nature of Business – Coeptis Pharmaceuticals, LLC (LLC) was formed in July 12, 2017 as a Pennsylvania multi-member limited liability company. On December 1, 2018, the members of LLC contributed their interest to a newly formed corporation, Coeptis Pharmaceuticals, Inc (“Coeptis”). As of December 1, 2018, the LLC became a disregarded single-member limited liability company which is wholly owned by the newly formed corporation. On February 12, 2021, Vinings Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Vinings” or the “Company”), merged (the “Merger”) with and into Coeptis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Coeptis”). Coeptis was the surviving corporation of that Merger. As a result of the Merger, Vinings acquired the business of Coeptis and will continue the existing business operations of Coeptis as a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Merger was treated as a recapitalization of the Company for financial accounting purposes. The historical financial statements of Vinings before the Merger were replaced with the historical financial statements of Coeptis before the Merger in all future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

The Company is located in Wexford, PA, and engages primarily in the acquisition, development, and commercialization of pharmaceutical products.

Basis of Presentation - The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim financial statements furnished herein include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, and the results of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Interim financial statements are prepared on a basis consistent with the Company’s annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-KT for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. Results of operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021.

As a result of the Merger, the financial statements included in this report reflect (1) the historical operating results of Coeptis prior to the Merger; (2) the combined results of the Company and Coeptis following the closing of the Merger; (3) the assets and liabilities of Coeptis at their historical cost; and (4) the Company’s equity structure for all periods presented.

In accordance with guidance applicable, to these circumstances, the equity structure has been restated in all comparative periods up to the Closing Date, to reflect the number of shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (“Common Stock”) issued to Coeptis’ stockholders in connection with the recapitalization transaction. As such, the shares and corresponding capital amounts and earnings per share related to Coeptis redeemable convertible preferred stock and Coeptis common stock prior to the Business Combination have been retroactively restated as shares reflecting the exchange ratio (one for one) established in the Business Combination Agreement.

Risks and Uncertainties - In late 2019, an outbreak of a novel strain of the Coronavirus 2019 Disease (COVID-19) was identified and infections have been found in a number of countries around the world, including the United States. COVID-19 and its impact on trade including customer demand, travel, employee productivity, supply chain, and other economic activities has had, and may continue to have, a potentially significant effect on financial markets and business activity. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operational and financial performance is currently uncertain and cannot be predicted.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KT filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 11, 2021. There have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies during the period ended March 31, 2021, except for items mentioned below.

Principles of Consolidation – The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Vinings Holdings, Inc., Coeptis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Coeptis Pharmaceuticals, LLC. All material intercompany accounts, balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of 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.

Revenue Recognition – The Company derived its revenue for the periods ending March 31, 2021 and 2020 primarily from consulting services. Revenues are recognized when services are provided to its customers or the product is sold, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services or goods. Sales and other taxes the Company collects concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Incidental items that are immaterial in the context of the contract are recognized as expense. The amount received for consulting services for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was $75,000 and $4,508 respectively. Revenues received in advance of the fulfillment of a performance obligation are deferred until the time such performance obligation is performed (Note 7).

Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements –

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. ASU 2019-12 simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principals in Topic 740. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending the existing guidance. For public business entities, the guidance is effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period. The adoption of this standard, effective January 1, 2021, did not have a material impact on these financial statements.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, there were several new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB. Each of these pronouncements, as applicable, has been or will be adopted by the Company. Management does not believe the adoption of any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 3 – LICENSE RIGHT

In 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with a foreign entity to market, distribute, and sell the Consensi product (Product) on an exclusive basis within the United States and Puerto Rico. Upon execution of the Agreement the Company paid $1,000,000 to the foreign entity. Milestone payments were due as follows; (1) $1,500,000 upon completion of the CMC Plan as reimbursements of costs incurred by the foreign entity, (2) $1,000,000 was due upon first commercial sale of the Product which occurred in June 2020. Milestones were not met during three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

During the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company determined that there was a reduction of the useful life of the asset, resulting in a full impairment of the asset. The carrying value of the license right at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $0. Amortization expenses total $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

The principal amount of $200,000, which is unsecured, together with interest at 9% was due June 15, 2020. In lieu of cash repayment, the outstanding principal amount of the note, plus all accrued unpaid interest may be converted at the option of the party, in whole or in part, into shares of Common Stock. As of the December 31, 2020, the note had a balance of $200,000. The note and accrued interest were paid in full in the first quarter of 2021.

In January 2020, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Note agreement with an unrelated party. The principal amount of $500,000, which is secured by a security agreement, together with interest at 8%, plus additional 2% in the event of default, was due February 8, 2021. The balance of the note is $500,000 as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. This debt is currently in default.

In January 2020, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Note agreement with a related party stockholder.

Interest accrued on the related party notes at March 31, 2021 and December 31,2020 was $50,000 and $40,000, respectively.

Loans under the CARES Act -- On May 6, 2020, the Company received loan proceeds in the amount of approximately $77,500 under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). The PPP, established as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), provides for loans to qualifying businesses for amounts up to 2.5 times of the average monthly payroll expenses of the qualifying business. The loans and accrued interest are forgivable after eight weeks as long as the borrower uses the loan proceeds for eligible purposes, including payroll, benefits, rent and utilities, and maintains its payroll levels. The amount of loan forgiveness will be reduced if the borrower terminates employees or reduces salaries during the eight-week period. In February 2021, an additional $77,595 was received by the Company under the second round of PPP (“PPP2”). The Company has used the proceeds for purposes consistent with its intended use. The Company currently believes that its use of the loans proceeds will meet the conditions for forgiveness of the loans, and has applied for forgiveness of the initial PPP loan.

The balance of principal and interest is payable thirty years from the date of the promissory note. The balance of the loan is $150,000, as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Maturities of long-term debt for the quarter ended March 31, are as follows:

As of three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, and through this date, none of these milestones have occurred. Because collection of these milestone payments is not reasonably assured, we have not recorded any revenues in the accompanying financial statements.

Also, the Company is due an additional $1,750,000 with respect to the Product that is Vigabatrin 500mg powder for Oral Solution (powder) as follows; (A) $250,000 within 45 days of the first date on which annual gross profit from the sale of powder reaches $1,000,000 in a calendar year, (B) $500,000 within 45 days of the first date on which annual gross profit from the sale of powder reaches $5,000,000 in a calendar year, (C) $1,000,000 within 45 days of the first date on which annual gross profit from the sale of powder reaches $10,000,000 in a calendar year.

NOTE 7 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Leases - The Company leases office space under an operating lease commencing December 1, 2017 through November 30, 2019 and a first lease extensions commending December 1, 2019 through May 31, 2020. The second lease extension extends the lease for twenty-four months, beginning on June 1, 2020 and ending on May 31, 2022. The monthly rent is $3,750. On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC Topic 842, Leases, requiring this lease to be recorded as an asset and corresponding liability on its consolidated balance sheet. The Company records rent expense associated with this lease on the straight-line basis in conjunction with the terms of the underlying lease. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, rental expense totaled $11,250 and $10,500 respectively.

Future minimum rental payments required under the lease are as follows:

Legal Matters – The company is currently not a defendant in any litigation or threatened litigation that could have a material effect on the company’s financial statements.

Royalty Obligations - In connection with the product licensing agreement discussed in Note 3, the Company owes a minimum royalty payment of $1,000,000 following the first year of product sales. A minimum royalty amount is also due in subsequent years.

NOTE 9 – INCOME TAXES

For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, no income tax expense or benefit was recognized. The Company’s deferred tax assets are comprised primarily of net operating loss carryforwards.

Objective

Our MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read together with, our unaudited financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Overview and Outlook

Vinings Holdings, Inc. (“Vinings”) is a holding company that conducts its current operations through its wholly-owned subsidiary Coeptis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Coeptis”). We are a pharmaceutical company which owns, acquires, and develops drug products and pharmaceutical technologies which offer improvements to current therapies. Our products and technologies are intended to be commercialized in the US and worldwide markets. Since Coeptis’ inception in 2017, it has acquired and commercialized two drug products for the U S market, which were approved as 505b2 applications. These anti-hypertension products were launched into the US market during 2020 through a marketing partner. At launch, the sales and promotional efforts were significantly impeded by the limitation of the global pandemic and as such, we are continually evaluating plans in 2021. We also began the development of several ANDA products which we divested in 2019 to a larger generic pharmaceutical drug manufacturer, and have moved away from focusing on the commercialization of generic products. In early 2021, we entered into strategic partnerships to co-develop improved therapies for the auto-immune and oncology markets. Following the reverse merger transaction involving us and Coeptis, we continue to focus on identifying and investing resources into innovative products and technologies which we believe will significantly transform Coeptis’ current products and therapies.

During 2020 and continuing into early 2021, Coeptis faced several operational challenges related to the COVID-19 global pandemic, which we continue to work to overcome. The launch of both 5050b2 products was impacted because of various COVID-19 limitations, most notably field sales personnel were not able to make healthcare provider visits in person; thereby limiting the awareness of the availability of these products. We explored and implemented several non-personal promotion efforts, but given the global limitations and dynamics, it was challenging to achieve expected sales. We continue to explore all possible marketing and sales options for the products.

We have recently entered into agreements that provide us with the opportunity to invest in and co-develop new technologies for the global cell therapy market. We cannot predict the success of these processes or the timing of when they may be available; however, we will work to understand how these products can affect current therapies to improve patient outcomes. See our Current Report on Form 8-K that was filed on May 11, 2021, which discusses this opportunity.

We expect to generate revenue from product sales and technology licensing. We cannot be certain of the timing of this revenue and will likely need funding to support continuing operations and support our growth strategy. We may have to finance operations by offering any combination of equity offerings, debt financing, collaborations, strategic alliances, or other licensing arrangements.

Our Results of Operations

Revenue. To date, we have generated minimal revenue mostly from consulting arrangements and product sales. Due to the COVID-19 global pandemic and the resulting market dynamics, it is uncertain if the current marketed products can generate sufficient sales to cover expenses. If our strategic business discussions progress to agreements we expect to generate additional revenue from collaboration partners.

Operating Expenses. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs for personnel and professional fees for consulting services related to regulatory, pharmacovigilance, quality, legal, and business development. We expect that our general and administrative expenses will increase in the future as we increase our headcount to support the business growth. We also anticipate that we will incur increased accounting, audit, legal, regulatory, compliance, insurance, and investor relation expenses associated with operating as a public company.

Research and developments costs will continue to be dependent on the strategic business collaborations and agreements will are anticipating in the future. We expect development costs to increase to support our new strategic initiatives.

Comparison of the three months ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020

Revenues. Revenues, which were generated from consulting agreements, of $75,000 and $4,508 recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 respectively, continue to be minimal. The Company’s activities primarily include product development, raising capital, and building infrastructure. Management does not expect the Company to generate any significant revenue for at least the next two years, during which time drug development will continue toward the goal of commercializing, through a partnership or otherwise, one or more of the Company’s target products or technologies.

Operating Expenses

Overview. Operating expenses increased from $400,907 in the three months ended March 31, 2020 to $1,775,081 in the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase is mainly due to higher professional services related to the merger transaction, as well as new requirements for D&O insurance.

General and Administrative Expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2021, general and administrative expenses are included in operating expenses. All costs incurred can be attributed to the planned principal operations of product development, raising capital, and building infrastructure. Management may separate out G&A expenses in 2021 and 2022, especially if new personnel are hired consistent with the Company’s financial regulatory and filings obligations as a publicly traded entity.

Interest Expense. Interest expense was $34,500 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and was $1,193 for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Interest was related to notes payable, which are discussed in detail in the Footnotes to the financial statements, incorporated by reference herein. Management expects that in 2021 and thereafter, interest expense will increase, as it may take on debt from insiders or independent third parties to fund operations either while awaiting receipt of the proceeds of equity capital financings or as a stand-alone strategy in addition to raising capital through equity capital financings.

Financial Resources and Liquidity. The Company had limited financial resources during the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 with cash and cash equivalents of just $202,965. For the period ending March 31, 2021, cash and cash equivalents increased to $2,034,729 as the Company raised capital in conjunction with its private placement and merger transaction. During both these time periods, the Company continues to operate a minimal infrastructure in order to maintain its ability to fund operations, keep full focus on all product development targets and to stay current with all of the Company’s scientist consultants, legal counsel, and accountants. During 2021, the Company believes that the ability to raise capital through equity transactions will increase liquidity and enable the execution of management’s operating strategy.

The Company is a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and is not required to provide the information under this Item.

Disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer (our principal executive officer) and our chief financial officer (our principal financial officer) evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report on Form 10-Q. Based upon that evaluation, and as a result of the material weaknesses described below, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. Management anticipates that such disclosure controls and procedures will not be effective until the material weaknesses are remediated.

Our Annual Report on Form 10-K contains information regarding a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020. For example, the Company lacked adequate segregation of duties which led to situations where individuals had access to both initiate and approve transactions with no additional formal review process.

In an effort to address the Company’s internal accounting personnel deficiencies, in February 2021 we hired a consulting group to assist our Chief Financial Officer. Accordingly, the Company believes, based on its knowledge, that: (i) this quarterly report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report; and (ii) the financial statements, and other financial information included in this quarterly report, fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented in this quarterly report.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Risk Factors” in our Transition Report on Form 10-KT for the ten-months ended December 31, 2020, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risks described in our Transition Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing our company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
