Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022, or any other period. These unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (“Form 10-K”). The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 has been derived from the audited financial statements filed in our Form 10-K and is included for comparison purposes in the accompanying balance sheet.

 

NOTE 2 – ORGANIZATION, NATURE OF BUSINESS AND GOING CONCERN

 

Cosmos Holdings Inc. (d/b/a Cosmos Health, Inc.) (Nasdaq: COSM) is an international healthcare group headquartered in Chicago, Illinois.

Going Concern

 

The Company’s condensed 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 nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company had revenue of $38,296,402, net loss of $3,010,684 and net cash used in operations of $4,552,332. Additionally, as of September 30, 2022, the Company had working capital of $1,945,076, an accumulated deficit of $54,345,250, and stockholders’ equity of $3,443,833. 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 twelve months from the date of this filing.

 

The Company has undergone strategic review processes to help find a definitive solution to the Company’s accumulated deficit constraints. Options under consideration in the strategic review process include, but are not limited to, securing new debt, exchange debt to equity, restructuring current debt facilities from short term to long term and taking the proper actions for new fund raising.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2022

 

The condensed 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.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund its operations. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to curtail 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 equity and/or debt financing. 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.

 

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

Our condensed consolidated accounts include our accounts and the accounts of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, SkyPharm S.A., Decahedron Ltd. and Cosmofarm Ltd. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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.

 

The Effects of COVID-19

 

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. The Company is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to its estimates or judgments or a revision of the carrying value of its assets or liabilities as of the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These estimates may change, as new events occur, and additional information is obtained. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

The Effects of War in the Ukraine

 

On February 24, 2022, Russian forces launched significant military action against Ukraine. There continues to be sustained conflict and disruption in the region, which is expected to endure for the foreseeable future. We do not conduct any commercial transactions with either Ukraine or Russia and the Company is not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to its estimates or judgments or a revision of the carrying value of its assets or liabilities as of the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Such political issues and conflicts could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition if they escalate in areas in which we do business. In addition, changes in and adverse actions by governments in foreign markets in which we do business could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

These estimates may change, as new events occur, and additional information is obtained. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We will continue monitoring the social, political, regulatory and economic environment in Ukraine and Russia, and will consider further actions as appropriate.

 

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 September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no cash equivalents.

 

The Company maintains bank accounts in the United States denominated in U.S. Dollars, in Greece denominated in Euros, U.S. Dollars and Great Britain Pounds (British Pounds Sterling), and in Bulgaria denominated in Euros. The Company also maintains bank accounts in the United Kingdom, denominated in Euros and Great Britain Pounds (British Pounds Sterling).

 

Reclassifications to Prior Period Financial Statements and Adjustments

 

Certain reclassifications have been made in the Company’s financial statements of the prior period to conform to the current year presentation. As of December 31, 2021, $7,393 in accumulated depreciation has been reclassified from property and equipment to accumulated amortization of goodwill and intangible assets and $4,772 was reclassified from prepaid expenses and other current assets to marketable securities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

 

Account Receivable, net

 

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. At September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $1,858,427 and $1,702,743, respectively.

 

Tax Receivable

 

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 subsidiaries in Greece, SkyPharm and Cosmofarm, do not charge VAT for sales to wholesale drug distributors registered in other European Union member states. The net VAT receivable is recorded in prepaid expense and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had a VAT net payable balance of $641,441 and $400,616 respectively, recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as accounts payable and accrued expenses.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory is stated at the lower-of-cost or net realizable 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.

September 30, 2022

 

The Company writes down inventories to net realizable value based on physical condition, expiration date, current market conditions, as well as forecasted demand. The Company’s inventories are not highly susceptible to obsolescence. Many of the Company’s inventory items are eligible for return to our suppliers when pre-agreed product requirements, including, but not limited to, physical condition and expiration date, are not met.

 

Property and Equipment, net

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated 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

Leasehold improvements and technical works

 

Lesser of lease term or 40 years

Vehicles

6 years

Machinery

20 years

Furniture, fixtures and equipment

 

5–10 years

 

Computers and software

 

3-5 years

 

Depreciation expense was $83,214 and $68,852 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively and $248,670 and $218,664 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

In accordance with ASC 360-10, Long-lived Assets, 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, net

 

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.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2022

 

On December 19, 2018, as a result of the acquisition of Cosmofarm, the Company recorded $49,697 of goodwill.

 

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 its pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals products 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. As of September 30, 2022, no revision to the remaining amortization period of the intangible assets was made.

 

Amortization expense was $36,982 and $8,339 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively and $53,389 and $24,746 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

Equity Method Investment

 

For those investments in common stock or in-substance common stock in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the investee, the investment is accounted for under the equity method. The Company will record its share in the earnings of the investee and will include it within the condensed consolidated statement of operations. The Company assesses its investment for other-than-temporary impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment might not be recoverable and recognizes an impairment loss to adjust the investment to its then current fair value.

 

Investments in Equity Securities

 

Investments in equity securities are accounted for at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income (loss). Equity securities are classified as short-term or long-term based on the nature of the securities and their availability to meet current operating requirements. Equity securities that are readily available for use in current operations are reported as a component of current assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Equity securities that are not considered available for use in current operations would be reported as a component of long-term assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. For equity securities with no readily determinable fair value, the Company elects a measurement alternative to fair value. Under this alternative, the Company measures the investments at cost, less any impairment, and adjusted for changes resulting from observable price changes in transactions for identical or similar investments of the investee. The election to use the measurement alternative is made for each eligible investment.

 

As of September 30, 2022, investments consisted of (i) 3,000,000 shares, which traded at a closing price of $0 per share or a value of $0 of ICC International Cannabis Corp and (ii) 16,666 shares which traded at a closing price of $0.30 per share or value of $4,934 of National Bank of Greece. Additionally, the Company has $5,053 in equity securities of Pancreta Bank, which are revalued annually. See Note 3, for additional investments in equity securities.

 

Fair Value Measurement

 

The Company applies ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, (“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.

COSMOS HOLDINGS, INC.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2022

 

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 following tables presents assets that are measured and recognized at fair value as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, on a recurring basis:

Derivative Instruments

 

Derivative financial instruments are recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value in accordance with ASC 815. When the Company enters into a financial instrument such as a debt or equity agreement (the “host contract”), the Company assesses whether the economic characteristics of any embedded features are clearly and closely related to the primary economic characteristics of the remainder of the host contract. When it is determined that (i) an embedded feature possesses economic characteristics that are not clearly and closely related to the primary economic characteristics of the host contract, and (ii) a separate, stand-alone instrument with the same terms would meet the definition of a financial derivative instrument, then the embedded feature is bifurcated from the host contract and accounted for as a derivative instrument. The estimated fair value of the derivative feature is recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets separately from the carrying value of the host contract. Subsequent changes in the estimated fair value of derivatives are recorded as a gain or loss in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

Customer Advances

 

The Company receives prepayments from certain customers for pharmaceutical products prior to those customers taking possession of the Company’s products. The Company records these receipts as customer advances until it has met all the criteria for recognition of revenue including passing control of the products to its customer, at such point, the Company will reduce the customer advances balance and credit the Company’s revenues.

Revenue Recognition

 

In accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company uses a five-step model for recognizing revenue by applying the following steps: (1) identify the contract with the customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the performance obligations are satisfied by transferring the promised goods to the customer. Once these steps are met, revenue is recognized upon transfer of the product to the customer.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”) and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (“SAB 107”) 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 ASU 2018-07, “Compensation-Stock Compensation-Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting.”

 

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions

 

Assets and liabilities of all foreign operations are translated at year-end rates of exchange, and amounts included in the accompanying condensed statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) 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’ deficit 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 comprehensive income (loss).

 

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 carryforwards. 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 Greece and the United Kingdom The corporate income tax rate is 22% in Greece and 19% in the United Kingdom. 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 September 30, 2022, we believe our United Kingdom deferred tax assets will not be realized, as such, we recorded a $288,870 valuation allowance. We believe that there is sufficient positive evidence to conclude that it is more likely than not that Greek deferred tax assets are realizable.

 

The Company uses a “more likely than not” criterion for recognizing the income tax benefit of uncertain tax positions and establishing measurement criteria for income tax benefits. The Company has evaluated the impact of these positions. Based upon the available evidence, the Company undergoes an annual certified audit each year in lieu of an audit by the Greek tax authorities, the Company has not taken any tax positions that warrant accrual under ASC 740-10.

Retirement and Termination Benefits

 

Under Greek labor law, employees are entitled to lump-sum compensation in the event of termination or retirement. The amount depends on the employee’s work experience and renumeration as of the day of termination or retirement. If an employee remains with the company until full-benefit retirement, the employee is entitled to a lump-sum equal to 40% of the compensation to be received if the employee were to be dismissed on the same day. The Company periodically reviews the uncertainties and judgments related to the application of the relevant labor law regulations to determine retirement and termination benefits obligations of its Greek subsidiaries. The Company has evaluated the impact of these regulations and has identified a potential retirement and termination benefits liability.

 

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

 

Basic income per share is calculated by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is calculated by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and, when dilutive, potential shares from stock options and warrants to purchase common stock, using the treasury stock method. In accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, the following table reconciles basic shares outstanding to fully diluted shares outstanding.

Accounting Standard Adopted

 

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging— Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40) (“ASU 2020-06”), effective as of January 1, 2022, using the modified retrospective transition method which, among other things, simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by eliminating the requirement to separate conversion features from the host contract. Consequently, a convertible debt instrument is accounted for as a single liability measured at its amortized cost and interest expense will be recognized at the coupon rate. The adoption resulted in the elimination of the debt discount that had been recorded within equity (see Note 11, “Convertible Debt”).

 

Correction of an Immaterial Error

 

During the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, the Company concluded it should have adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2022. The Company is now retrospectively adopting ASU 2020-06 as of January 1, 2022 in this Form 10-Q with a cumulative catch-up adjustment. The net impact of the adjustments was recorded as a reduction to the January 1, 2022 balance of additional paid-in capital in the amount of $294,000 and a reduction in accumulated deficit in the amount of $53,248, as presented in the statement of stockholders’ equity, and a reduction in discount on convertible notes payable in the amount of $240,752. The Company has concluded the impact to form 10-Q for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 to be immaterial to the financial statements and recorded a catchup/correcting adjustment in the current Form 10-Q.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued accounting standards update (“ASU”) 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which requires contract assets and contract liabilities (i.e., deferred revenue) acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as if it had originated the contracts. The new guidance creates an exception to the general recognition and measurement principles of ASC 805, Business Combinations. The new guidance should be applied prospectively and is effective for all public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and include interim periods. The guidance is effective for all other entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of the adoption of ASU No. 2021-08 on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04—Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt— Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options, to clarify and reduce diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (for example, warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. The amendments in this ASU are effective for public and nonpublic entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company adopted ASU No. 2021-04 on January 1, 2022, and its adoption did not have a material impact on its financial statements

 

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

NOTE 3 – MARKETABLE SECURITIES

 

Distribution and Equity Agreement

 

On March 19, 2018, the Company entered into a Distribution and Equity Acquisition Agreement with Marathon Global Inc. (“Marathon”), a company incorporated in the Province of Ontario, Canada. Marathon was formed to be a global supplier of cannabis, cannabidiol (CBD) and/or any cannabis extract products, extracts, ancillaries and derivatives (collectively, the “Products”). The Company was appointed the exclusive distributor of the Products initially throughout Europe and on a non-exclusive basis wherever else lawfully permitted. The Company has no present intention to distribute any Products under this Agreement in the United States or otherwise participate in cannabis operations in the United States. The Company intends to await further clarification from the U.S. Government on cannabis regulation prior to determining whether to enter the domestic market.

 

The Distribution and Equity Acquisition Agreement is to remain in effect indefinitely unless Marathon fails to provide Market Competitive (as defined) product pricing and Marathon has not become profitable within five (5) years of the agreement. The transaction closed on May 22, 2018 after the due diligence period, following which the Company received: (a) a 33 1/3% equity interest or 5 million shares in Marathon as partial consideration for the Company’s distribution services; and (b) received cash of CAD $2,000,000, subject to repayment in common shares of the Company if it fails to meet certain performance milestones. The Company is entitled to receive an additional CAD $2,750,000 upon the Company’s receipt of gross sales of CAD $6,500,000 and an additional CAD $2,750,000 upon receipt of gross sales of CAD $13,000,000. The Company was also given the right to nominate one director to the Marathon board of directors.

 

Since Marathon was a newly formed entity with no assets and no activity, the Company attributed no value to the 5 million shares in Marathon which was received as consideration for the distribution services. As described below, the Company exchanged the Marathon shares in May and July 2018.

Share Exchange Agreements

 

On May 17, 2018, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “SEA”) with Marathon, ICC International Cannabis Corp (“ICC”) formerly known as Kaneh Bosm Biotechnology Inc. (“KBB”) and certain other sellers of Marathon capital stock. Under the SEA, the Company transferred 2.5 million shares in Marathon to ICC, a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia and a public reporting issuer on the Canadian Securities Exchange, in exchange for 5 million shares of ICC. The Company accounted for the exchange at fair value and recognized a gain on exchange of its investment in Marathon of $1,953,000 in the year ended December 31, 2018.

 

On July 16, 2018, the Company completed a Share Exchange Agreement (the “New SEA”) with Marathon, ICC, and certain other sellers of Marathon capital stock whereby the Company transferred its remaining one-half interest (2.5 million shares) in Marathon to KBB for an additional 5 million shares of ICC. The Company accounted for the exchange at fair value and recognized a gain on exchange of its investment in Marathon of $2,092,200 in the year ended December 31, 2018. The ten million shares of ICC owned by the Company constituted approximately 7% of the 141,219,108 shares of capital stock of KBB then issued and outstanding. The Company does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over ICC.

 

The Company determined the fair value of both exchanges based on an actively quoted stock price of ICC received in exchange for the Marathon shares. The Company continues to fair value its investment in ICC with changes recognized in earnings each period and was recorded as an unrealized gain on exchange of investment during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 of $0. The value of the investments as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, was $0 and $0, respectively.

 

Since no value was attributed to the 33 1/3% equity ownership interest in Marathon received as consideration for the distribution services, the Company would receive variable consideration in the future for its services under the Distribution and Equity Acquisition Agreement, if certain milestones are achieved. Refer to Note 12 for the accounting associated with the cash of CAD $2 million received upfront. Variable consideration to be received in the future upon achieving the gross sales milestones described above, is constrained as the Company estimates that it is probable that a significant reversal of revenue could occur. In assessing the constraint, the Company considered its limited experience with the Products, new geographic markets and similar transactions, which affect the Company’s ability to estimate the likelihood of a probable revenue reversal. Therefore, no revenue has been recognized for the period ended September 30, 2022. The Company will continue to reassess variable consideration at each reporting period and update the transaction price when it becomes probable that a significant revenue reversal would not occur.

 

As of September 30, 2022, in addition to the 3,000,000 ICC shares valued at $0, as noted above, marketable securities also consisted of the following: 16,666 shares which traded at a closing price of $0.30 per share or value of $4,934 of National Bank of Greece. Additionally, the Company has $5,053 in equity securities of Pancreta Bank, which are revalued annually. The Company recorded a net unrealized gain on the fair value of these investments of $415 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

 

CosmoFarmacy LP

 

In September 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with an unaffiliated third party to incorporate CosmoFarmacy L.P. for the purpose of providing strategic management consulting services and the retail trade of pharmaceutical products, and OTC to pharmacies. CosmoFarmacy was incorporated with a 30-year term through May 31, 2049. The unaffiliated third party is the general partner (the “GP”) of the limited partnership and is responsible for management and decision-making associated with CosmoFarmacy. The initial share capital was set to EUR 150,000 which was later increased to EUR 500,000. The GP contributed the pharmacy license (the “License”) valued at EUR 350,000 (30-year term) to operate the business of CosmoFarmacy in exchange for a 70% equity ownership. The Company is a limited partner and contributed cash of EUR 150,000 for the remaining 30% equity ownership. CosmoFarmacy is not publicly traded and the Company’s investment has been recorded using the equity method of accounting. The value of the investment as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $146,745 and $169,770, respectively, and is included in “Other assets” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet.

NOTE 6 – LOAN RECEIVABLE

 

On October 30, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement for a ten-year loan with Medihelm SA to memorialize €4,284,521 ($4,849,221) in prepayments the Company had made. The prepayments to Medihelm SA had been made in accordance with the parallel export business, through which Medihelm supplied and would supply SkyPharm SA with branded pharmaceuticals. This business is no longer in place for the Company and thus entered to this agreement with Medihelm SA in order for the outstanding amount to be settled. Interest is calculated at a rate of 5.5% per annum on a 360-day basis. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company is to receive 120 equal payments over the term of the loan. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had a short-term receivable balance of $377,590 and a long-term receivable balance of $4,410,689 under this loan. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company received €251,190 ($245,739) in principal payments such that as of September 30, 2022, the Company had a short-term receivable balance of $340,092 and a long-term receivable balance of $3,553,039 under this loan. The Company also received €144,523($141,387) in interest payments during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

 

NOTE 7 – INCOME TAXES

 

The Company is incorporated in the United States of America and is subject to United States federal taxation. No provisions for income taxes have been made as the Company had no U.S. taxable income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021.

September 30, 2022

 

The Company’s Greece subsidiaries are governed by the income tax laws of Greece. The corporate tax rate in Greece is 22% on income reported in the statutory financial statements after appropriate tax adjustments.

 

The Company’s United Kingdom subsidiaries are governed by the income tax laws of the United Kingdom. The corporate tax rate in the United Kingdom is 19% on income reported in the statutory financial statements after appropriate tax adjustments.

 

As of September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company’s effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate primarily due to a valuation allowance recorded against net deferred tax assets in in the United States and the United Kingdom.

 

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. As of September 30, 2022, we believe that it is more likely than not that the benefit from our United Kingdom deferred tax assets will not be realized, as such, we recorded a $288,870 valuation allowance. We believe that there is sufficient positive evidence to conclude that it is more likely than not that Greek deferred tax assets are realizable. The Company continues to maintain a valuation allowance against all net deferred tax assets in the United States. Foreign valuation allowances were reversed on December 31, 2020.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, the Company has recorded tax expense in any jurisdiction where it is subject to income tax, in the amount of $398,066 and $168,561, respectively, on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021, the Company has recorded tax expense in the amount of $473,296 and $69,152, respectively, on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

 

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, 2022 and December 31, 2021, 6,000 and 0, preferred shares have been issued, respectively, and 1,500 and 0, shares remain outstanding, respectively.

 

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. 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 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.

 

With respect to payment of dividends and distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, all shares of the Series A Preferred Stock will rank: (i) senior to all of the Company’s Common Stock and any other equity securities that the Company may issue in the future, (ii) equal to any other equity securities that the Company may issue in the future, the terms of which specifically provide that such equity securities are on parity or senior to the Series A Preferred Stock (“Parity Securities”), (iii) junior to all other equity securities the Company issues, the terms of which specifically provide that such equity securities rank senior to the Series A Preferred Stock, and (iv) junior to all of the Company’s existing and future indebtedness; without the prior written consent of the Majority Holders.

In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company (a “Liquidation”), the Holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be first entitled to receive out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its shareholders.

 

Each Holder shall not be entitled to vote with holders of outstanding shares of Common Stock, voting together as a single class, with respect to any and all matters presented to the stockholders of the Company for their action or consideration, except as provided by law or as set forth in the COD.  The holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to receive dividends paid and distributions made to the holders of Common Stock to the same extent as if the holders of Series A Preferred Stock had converted such shares into shares of Common 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) $3.00 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 $0.62152 per share.

 

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 2,000,000 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 $3.30 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 2,000,000 warrants are additional value being distributed to the preferred stockholders and presented the warrants’ fair value of $5,788,493 as a deemed dividend in the unaudited 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 $3.30, b) common stock fair value of $3.42, c) volatility of 118%, d) discount rate of $1.71%, and e) 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. If the Company fails to timely file its initial registration statement, or any additional registration statement, or otherwise comply with the requirements of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company shall pay each holder 2% of the subscription amount in cash until cured, with an additional penalty of 18% if the cash payment is not made within seven days of the cash payable date.

 

The Company filed its initial registration statement on May 25, 2022, and thus accrued for liquidated damages payable to the Holders in the amount of $187,970, calculated as described above, for both the late filing of the registration statement (event) and the 1st anniversary (30 days following the event date) of the event. Upon the effectiveness of the Company’s registration statement, the Series A Shares conversion price was adjusted to $0.62152 and the warrant exercise price was adjusted to $0.62152 per share. The Company recorded a deemed dividend in the amount of $8,189,515 upon reducing the conversion price from $3.00 to $0.62152 which was recorded as an increase to additional paid-in capital and an increase to accumulated deficit.

The Series A Shares rank senior to all of the Company’s Common Stock and any other equity securities that the Company may issue in the future with respect to payment of dividends and distribution of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up. While the Series A Shares are outstanding, the Company may not amend, alter or change adversely the powers, preferences or rights given to the Series A Shares, create, or authorize the creation of, any additional class or series of capital stock of the Company (or any security convertible into or exercisable for any class or series of capital stock of the Company), including any class or series of capital stock of the Company that ranks superior to or in parity with the Series A Shares, alter, amend, modify, or repeal its Articles of Incorporation or other charter documents in any manner that adversely affects any rights of the holders of Series A Shares, increase or decrease the number of authorized shares of Series A Shares, any agreement, commitment or transaction that would result in a Change of Control, any sale or disposition of any material assets outside of the ordinary course of business of the Company, any material change in the principal business of the Company, including the entry into any new line of business or exit of any current line of business, and circumvent a right or preference of the Series A Shares. Any holder of the Series A Shares shall have the right by written election to the Company to convert all or any portion of the outstanding Series A Shares. Immediately upon effectiveness of a registration statement registering for resale all of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), all outstanding Series A Shares shall automatically convert into Common Stock, subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations.

 

Mezzanine Equity

 

The Series A Shares are recorded as mezzanine equity in accordance with ASC 480 at its initial net carrying value in the amount of $5,452,300. The Series A Shares are recorded as mezzanine equity in accordance with ASC 480 as the Company may be obligated to issue a variable number of shares at a fixed price known at inception and there is no maximum number of shares that could potentially be issued upon conversion. In this instance, cash settlement would be presumed and the Series A Shares are classified as mezzanine equity in accordance with ASC 480-10-S99. 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 shall automatically convert into common stock.

 

As of September 30, 2022, 4,500 of the Series A Shares have been converted into 7,251,269 shares of common stock in accordance with the terms of the agreements and thus an amount of $4,081,974 was reclassified from mezzanine equity to common stock and additional paid-in capital, in the aggregate.

 

Common Stock

 

The Company is authorized to issue 300 million shares of common stock. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had 26,365,404 and 17,544,509 shares of our common stock issued, respectively, and 25,977,980 and 17,157,085 shares outstanding, respectively.

 

Consulting Agreement

 

The Company entered into a Consulting Agreement (the “Agreement”) effective as of February 5, 2021, with a non-affiliated consultant (the “Consultant”). The Company engaged the Consultant to perform consulting services relating to Company management, debt structure, business plans and business development in connection with any capitalization transactions involving the Company and any newly created or existing entities. The Agreement was for a term of nine (9) months with an initial term of ninety (90) days (the “Initial Term”). The Agreement was terminable by the Company for any reason upon written notice at any time after the Initial Term.

 

The Company agreed to pay Consultant and its assignees an aggregate of 1,800,000 restricted shares of Common Stock, earned at the rate of 200,000 shares per month, which shall be issued and fully paid for in consideration of the Consultant’s considerable expertise and experience and its commitment to work for the Company. However, in the event the Agreement is terminated for any reason after the Initial Term, the shares are subject to a claw back for any months remaining after the Termination Date. The shares were valued on the date of the agreement at $3.28 per share or $5,904,000, which was be amortized over the term of the agreement. As of the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company has expensed $0 and $5,147,076, respectively, under the agreement.

On October 10, 2020, the Company entered into a contract manufacturer outsourcing “CMO” agreement with DocPharma whereby Doc Pharma is responsible for the development and manufacturing of pharmaceutical products and nutritional supplements according to the Company’s specifications based on strict pharmaceutical standards and good manufacturing practice (“GMP”) protocols as the National Organization for Medicines requires. The Company has the exclusive ownership rights for trading and distribution of its own branded nutritional supplements named “Sky Premium Life®”. The duration of the agreement is for 5 years however either party may terminate the agreement at any time giving six-months advance notice. Doc Pharma is exclusively responsible for supplying the raw materials and packaging required to manufacture the final product.

December 21, 2020 Securities Purchase Agreement

 

On December 21, 2020 the Company entered into a convertible promissory note with Platinum Point Capital, LLC (the “Holder”, “Lender” or “Platinum”) pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”).

 

The Company issued the $540,000 Note in exchange for $500,000 in cash and included a $40,000 Original Issue Discount (“OID”) and paid $3,000 in financing costs. The principal amount together with interest at the rate of eight percent (8.0%) per annum, compounded annually (the “Interest Rate”), will be paid to the Lenders on or before the Maturity Date (December 31, 2021 or as defined below). Accrued interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days elapsed. In the event that on or before the Maturity Date, the Note either (i) had not been converted or have not been otherwise satisfied in full or (ii) an Event of Default (as defined in the SPA) occurs, then the applicable rate of interest on the outstanding amount of the Note since inception shall be the Interest Rate plus eighteen percent (18.0%), the Default Interest. Unless previously converted, the principal and accrued interest on the Note is due and payable in cash (USD) upon the earlier of (i) December 31, 2021, (ii) a Change of Control (as defined in the SPA) or (iii), an Event of Default (collectively, the “Maturity Date”).

 

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company converted an aggregate total of $525,000 in principal and $25,144 in accrued interest and fees into 213,382 shares of the Company’s common stock at an average price per share of $2.58. Upon conversion, the 213,382 shares were issued at a fair value of $959,024 which was recorded as equity. Accordingly, upon conversion, the Company reduced its outstanding debt by $550,144, reduced its derivative liability by $284,169, and recorded a loss on extinguishment of $124,711.

 

On May 1, 2022 the Company issued 39,339 shares of common stock to convert $26,515 principal and accrued interest. Following the conversion, the outstanding balance of the above Note is $0.

Accordingly, upon conversion, the Company reduced its derivative liability by $11,629 (see Note 8).

 

The Company determined that the embedded conversion feature of the convertible promissory note meets the definition of a derivative liability which is accounted for separately. The Company determined a derivative liability exists and determined that the embedded derivative was valued at $456,570 which was recorded as a debt discount, and together with the original issue discount and transaction expenses of $43,000, in the aggregate of $499,570, is being amortized over the life of the loan.

Loan Facility Agreement

 

On August 4, 2021, the Company entered into an exchange agreement for the existing loan facility agreement with Synthesis Peer-to-Peer Income Fund, whereby the Company agreed to the following:

 

 

·

Issue on August 4, 2021, 321,300 shares of common stock to settle $1,606,500 (€1,350,000) of debt. The Company recorded a gain on settlement of $292,383 upon the issuance of the 321,300 shares

 

 

 

 

·

Agreed to issue no more than 238,000 shares of common stock upon approval of the listing of the Company’s common stock on Nasdaq to settle $1,190,000 (€1,000,000) of debt. The Company issued these shares on February 28, 2022. Upon issuance of the 238,000 shares of common stock, the Company recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt in the amount of $216,580 determined using the fair value of the Company’s common stock at the commitment date of $4.09 per share.

 

The Company evaluated the August 4, 2021, exchange agreement for debt modification in accordance with ASC 470-50 and concluded that the debt qualified for debt extinguishment because a substantial conversion feature was added to the debt terms. Upon extinguishment, the Company recorded a loss upon extinguishment in the amount of $6,642 and recorded the new debt at fair value based on the present value of future cash flows using a discount rate of 11.66%. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has accrued interest expense of $17,146 and $4,414, respectively, and the principal balance of the debt is $28,711 and $1,299,784, respectively, which is classified as Notes payable on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

 

The debt is subject to acceleration in an Event of Default (as defined in the Notes). This agreement is secured by a personal guaranty of Grigorios Siokas, which is secured by a pledge of 1,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company owned by Mr. Siokas.

 

During Q2 2022, the Company informally agreed with the Lender to extend the maturity of the facility to September 30, 2022. During Q3 2022, the maturity of the facility was further informally extended to December 31, 2022.

The Company is entitled to receive an additional CAD $2,750,000 upon the Company’s receipt of gross sales of CAD $6,500,000 and an additional CAD $2,750,000 upon receipt of gross sales of CAD $13,000,000.

 

As discussed in Note 3, the Company attributed no value to the shares received in Marathon pursuant to (a) above.

 financial instruments issued by the Company were not affected.

Overview

 

Summary

 

Cosmos Holdings, Inc. was formed as a Nevada incorporation on July 07, 2009, under the name of Prime Estates & Developments Inc. Effective September 27, 2013, we acquired 100% ownership of Amplerissimo Ltd., a private company whose principal activities included providing consulting services to various industries. On November 14, 2013, we changed our name to Cosmos Holdings, Inc. and changed our focus and business strategy to the healthcare and pharmaceutical industry. The Company, through Amplerissimo Ltd, formed SkyPharm S.A. on August 1, 2014, a Greek corporation which focuses on the trading of nutraceutical products. On February 10, 2017, we acquired 100% ownership of Decahedron Ltd., a United Kingdom company, which is a fully licensed wholesaler of pharmaceutical products, and its primary activity is the trading, distribution, import and export of pharmaceuticals and nutraceuticals. In addition, on December 19, 2018, the Company acquired 100% ownership of Cosmofarm Ltd, a Greek company which is a pharmaceutical wholesaler and networks with over 1,500 pharmacies.

 

Cosmos Holdings Inc is a healthcare group pharmaceutical company with a proprietary line of nutraceuticals and distributor pharmaceuticals. The Company uses a differentiated operating model based on a lean, nimble and decentralized structure, with an emphasis on acquisitions of established companies and our ability to maintain better pharmaceutical assets than others. This operating model and the execution of its corporate strategy are designed to enable the Company to achieve sustainable growth and create added value for our shareholders. In particular, the Company aims to enhance its pharmaceutical and over-the-counter product lines by acquiring or licensing rights to additional products and regularly evaluate selective company acquisition opportunities. The Company, through its subsidiaries, is operating within the healthcare sector and in order to compete successfully in the healthcare industry, must demonstrate that its products offer medical benefits as well as cost advantages. Currently, most of the products that the Company is trading, compete with other products already on the market in the same therapeutic category, and are subject to potential competition from new products that competitors may introduce in the future.

Risks

 

Supply chain disruption is a growing concern for the European pharmaceutical industry as it increasingly looks to cut costs by relying on ‘emerging markets’, where standards can be lower in terms of compliance, ethics and health and safety.

 

Hikes in the price of medicine and their impact on the sustainability of the healthcare systems are garnering more and more attention. European regulators are willing to play their part in safeguarding continued access to safe and effective medicines. Regulators can speed up the approval of branded pharmaceuticals and biosimilars to boost competition and drive down prices.

 

Cuts in healthcare spending keep occurring since the financial crises of the late of 2000s. Europe’s slow recovery has been uneven, with austerity and economic uncertainty, especially in the EU’s poorer member states, such as Greece.

 

Distribution & Trade Agreements

 

On July 1, 2021 the Company’s subsidiary SkyPharm SA, entered into an exclusive distribution agreement with a company based in Germany the “Distributor A”, whereas SkyPharm appointed the Distributor A to be the responsible Partner for the distribution, promotion, trade marketing, logistics and sale of the nutraceuticals manufactured and supplied by SkyPharm (Sky Premium Life®), in the territories of Austria & Germany. The Distributor A places purchase orders with SkyPharm at the company’s address and the purchase order is necessary to initiate any shipment.

 

On July 7, 2021 SkyPharm SA signed a trade agreement with a company specializing in e-commerce mall advice and operation, henceforward referred as “Distributor B”. Based on the agreement, SkyPharm will sell its own branded products Sky Premium Life ® to final consumers through the e-commerce store opened by Distributor B on Tmall International MALL and Distributor B will provide platform operation services to SkyPharm. The services provided by Distributor B will include mall construction, mall operation and network promotion, along with collection, settlement, customer service, logistics and distribution.

Based on the agreement Distributor C is appointed as the exclusive representative for the promotion & distribution of our proprietary nutraceutical products Sky Premium Life®, in Greece.

 

During July 2021, the Company’s subsidiary Decahedron Ltd, created a distribution page on Amazon UK, through which it sells, advertises and promotes our own proprietary branded nutraceutical product line “Sky Premium Life®, directly to final consumers.

Management believes that there could be a positive long-term outcome from COVID-19, which could result in an increase in sales of OTC branded products, nutraceuticals, antibacterial products, gloves, oximeters, thermometers and medical masks. However, there is no guarantee of such results. Therefore, we will increase R&D as we are aiming to innovate and create new products in order to help combat against COVID-19. We have adapted our strategy in response to COVID-19 and will continue to do so.

 

What Effect Will COVID-19 Have on the Company’s Disclosure Controls

 

Management does not believe COVID-19 will have a significant effect on our disclosure controls as there have been no changes to date. Our operations have continued at a normal pace, all of our staff continue to work on site.

Results of Operations

 

Three Months and nine months Period Ended September 30, 2022 and 2021

 

Revenue

 

The Company had revenue of $12,016,098 and $13,595,418 (a decrease of 11.62%) for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively and $38,296,402 and $40,061,419 (a decrease of 4.41%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company had a net loss of $1,972,775 on revenue of $12,016,098 versus a net loss of $1,936,543 on revenue of $13,595,418 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Also, the Company had a net loss of $3,010,684 on revenue of $38,296,402 versus a net loss of $6,489,502 on revenue of $40,061,419 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

 

Cost of Goods Sold

 

The Company had costs of goods sold of $10,232,201 versus $11,249,848 (a decrease of 9.05%) for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. In addition, the Company had costs of goods sold of $32,774,701 versus $ 34,677,671 (a decrease of 5.49%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in the nine-month period is primarily due to the increase in revenue of own branded nutritional supplements named “Sky Premium Life”. 

 

Our future revenue growth is expected to continue to be affected by various factors such as industry growth trends, including drug utilization, the introduction of new innovative brand therapies, the likely increase in the number of branded pharmaceutical products that will be available over the next few years’ price increases and price deflation, general economic conditions, including the effects of the current conflict in the Ukraine, the coronavirus in the United Kingdom and the member states of European Union, competition within the industry, customer consolidation, changes in pharmaceutical manufacturer pricing and distribution policies and practices, increased downward pressure on government and other third party reimbursement rates to our customers, and changes in government rules and regulations.

 

Gross Profit

 

The Company had gross profit of $1,783,897 (23.9%) versus $2,345,570 (17.3% - a decrease of 23.95%) for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. In addition, the Company had gross profit of $5,521,701 (14.4%) versus $5,383,748 (13.4% - an increase of 2.56%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in gross profit for the nine-month period is attributable to the transition of SkyPharm’s operational strategy from pharmaceuticals wholesale and distribution revenue to own branded nutritional supplements “Sky Premium Life” where profit margins are greater.

 

Operating Expenses

 

The Company had general and administrative costs of $1,335,033 and $2,427,085, salaries and wages expenses of $576,118 and $683,129, sales and marketing expenses of $103,979 and $41,715 and depreciation and amortization expense of $112,879 and $108,192 for a net operating loss of $344,112 and $914,551 (a decrease of 62.37%) for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in operating expenses is primarily attributed to the stock-based compensation related to a consulting agreement entered into in February 2021 and included in the general and administrative expenses for the period ended September 30, 2021.

 

The Company had general and administrative costs of $3,192,137 and $6,708,796, salaries and wages expenses of $1,675,068 and $1,786,954, sales and marketing expenses of $496,371 and $586,440 and depreciation and amortization expense of $334,349 and $323,678 for a net operating loss of $176,224 and $4,022,120 (a decrease of 95.62%) for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 respectively.

 

Other Income (Expense)

 

The Company’s other income (expense) was primarily comprised of interest expense related to notes payable and convertible notes payable $461,945 versus $670,282, non-cash interest expense related to the amortization of debt discount of $295,846 versus $353,303, a gain on equity investments of $359 versus $38, a change in fair value of derivative liability of $628 versus $125,621  due to agreements on convertible debentures and a net foreign currency loss of $468,362 versus a loss of $183,036 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company had working capital of $1,945,076 compared to $10,950,492 as of December 31, 2021.

 

The Company had cash of $312,385 versus $286,487 as of September 30, 2022 and December 2021, respectively. The Company had net cash used in operating activities of $4,552,332 and $5,549,269 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company has devoted substantially all of its cash resources to expand through organic business growth and has incurred significant general and administrative expenses in order to enable the financing and growth of its business and operations.

 

The Company had net cash used in investing activities of $68,932 and net cash used in investing activities of $835,425 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 the net cash provided by investing activities was mainly attributable to the proceeds from the loan receivable from a third party.

 

The Company had net cash provided by financing activities of $4,477,843 versus $6,475,402 during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

We anticipate using cash in our bank account as of September 30, 2022, cash generated from debt or equity financing, from investing activities or from management loans, to the extent that funds are available to do so to conduct our business in the upcoming year. Management is not obligated to provide these or any other funds. If we fail to meet these requirements, we may lose the qualification for quotation and our securities would no longer trade on the over-the-counter markets. Further, as a consequence we would fail to satisfy our reporting obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and investors would then own stock in a company that does not provide the disclosure available in quarterly and annual reports filed with the SEC and investors may have increased difficulty in selling their stock as we will be non-reporting.

Plan of Operation in the Next Twelve Months

 

Specifically, our plan of operations for the next 12 months is as follows:

 

We assess the foreseeable development of the Company as being positive. Over the medium term we expect to further expand our market shares. However, during the course of further organizational optimization there may be associated extraordinary additional costs.

 

Our plan for our own branded nutraceuticals is to enlarge our portfolio up to 150 SKUs by the end of 2022 including more basic line formulas to cover more customer needs of any age, advanced formulations, formulas based on herbs and further clinical studies with R&D for further products. Our plan for geographic expansion in distributing and market penetration in EU, Asia, USA, and Canada is based on exclusive distributors, wholesalers, ecommerce, development of franchising model, alliances and acquisitions of nutraceutical companies.

 

In addition, our plan for branded generics and OTC products is geographic expansion across the world, especially in the EU and UK, as well as in third world countries with fast registration and developed markets with liberalized OTC policies for online pharmacies and supermarkets. We also intend to enhance our exclusive distribution rights with a growing basis of cooperating partners while purchasing generics’, biosimilar drugs and OTC licenses. We also intend to enhance our product expectance by registered copyrights and trademarks in all OTC drugs. In addition, it remains committed to strategic research and development across each business unit with a particular focus on assets with inherently lower risk. Our plan for our healthcare distribution is to expand in the Greek territory, enlarge our customer portfolio and integrate of established sales network of pharmacies through the use of B2B and B2C ecommerce platforms and exclusive distributors. We are also aiming in increasing the exports of branded pharmaceuticals as we focus on higher profit margins categories (OTC and VMS), deliver 3PL services to pharma companies, put in force loyalty programs, provide added value services to pharmacies and emergency deliveries to VIP customers. The Company will evaluate and, where appropriate, execute on opportunities to expand its network of pharmacies and products in areas that it believes will offer above average growth characteristics and attractive margins.

 

The Company is growing its business through organic growth, market penetration, geographic expansion and acquisitions which would add value to its business and its Shareholders. The Company is also committed to pursuing various forms of business development; this can include trading, alliances, joint ventures and dispositions. Moreover, it hopes to continue to build on its portfolio of pharmaceutical products and expand its OTC and nutraceutical product portfolio. Thus, the Company believes that it is developing a sound sales distribution network specializing in its own branded nutraceutical products.

 

The Company’s main objective is expanding the business operations of its subsidiaries. The Company views its business development activity as an enabler of its strategies, and it seeks to generate earnings growth and enhance shareholder value by pursuing a disciplined, strategic, and financial approach to evaluating business development opportunities. Under these principles the Company assesses businesses and assets as part of its regular, ongoing portfolio review process and continues to consider trading development activities for its businesses. The Company’s objective is the optimization of operating expenses across all entities without compromising the quality of the Company’s services and products.

 

Changes in the behavior and spending patterns of purchasers of pharmaceutical and healthcare products and services, including delaying medical procedures, rationing prescription medications, reducing the frequency of doctor visits, and foregoing healthcare insurance coverage, may impact the Company’s business.

 

The pharmaceutical sector offers a large growth potential within the European pharmaceutical market, if service, price and quality are strictly directed towards the customer requirements. The Company will continue to encounter competition in the market by product, service, reliability, and a high level of quality. On the procurement side, the Company can access a wide range of supply possibilities. To minimize business risks, the Company diversifies its sources of supply all over Europe. It secures its high-quality demands through careful supplier qualification and selection, as well as active suppliers’ system management.

While the Company intends to pursue these milestones, there may be circumstances where for valid business reasons or due to factors beyond the control of the Company (e.g., the COVID-19 pandemic), a reallocation of efforts may be necessary or advisable. Although the Company does not currently anticipate that the COVID-19 pandemic will cause material delays in the timelines or estimates set out above, due to the evolving nature of COVID-19 and its impacts, these timelines and estimates may require adjustment in the future.

 

The Company intends to spend the funds available to it in working capital, inventories, intangible assets, acquisitions, R&D, sales and marketing expenses. Due to the uncertain nature of the industry in which the Company will operate, projects may be frequently reviewed and reassessed. Accordingly, while it is currently intended by management that the available funds will be expended as set forth above, actual expenditures may in fact differ from these amounts and allocations.

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of September 30, 2022, there were no off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

In December 2001, the SEC requested that all registrants list their most “critical accounting polices” under the Management’s Discussion and Analysis section. The SEC indicated that a “critical accounting policy” is one which is both important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results, and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.

 

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 above.

 

Foreign Currency. 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 (loss) 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 carryforwards. 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 Greece and the United Kingdom. The corporate income tax rate is 22% in Greece (tax losses are carried forward for five years effective January 1, 2013) and 19% in United Kingdom. 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.

Table of Contents

  

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. We operate and are subject to audit in multiple taxing jurisdictions.

 

We record interest and penalties related to income taxes as a component of interest and other expense, respectively.

 

Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted ASC 740 “Accounting for Income Taxes” as of its inception. Pursuant to ASC 740, the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. The potential benefits of net operating losses have not been recognized in this financial statement because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.

 

The Company has net operating loss carry-forwards in our parent, Cosmos Holdings Inc., which are applicable to future taxable income in the United States (if any). Additionally, the Company has income tax liabilities in the United Kingdom. The income tax assets and liabilities are not able to be netted. We therefore reserve the income tax assets applicable to the United States but recognize the income tax liabilities in Greece and the United Kingdom. Losses may also be subject to limitation under certain rules regarding change of ownership.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

 

Not applicable. A smaller reporting company is not required to provide the information required by this Item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures. 

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Securities Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and the Principal Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were partially effective. The Management is committed to remediate the material weaknesses identified in the Form 10K, which include lack of segregation of duties and lack of internal controls structure review. As part of this commitment, the Management has assigned to finance personnel responsibilities on key processes in order to examine and improve operating practices, perform extensive financial control and financial risk management processes, as well as to define and develop new policies and controls in order to improve the accuracy of the disclosures. In addition, the Internal Auditors of the Company are in the process of developing further procedures to ensure the effectiveness of internal controls and the accuracy and completeness of financial reporting. The Company will evaluate the controls and procedures on a quarterly basis and judge what weaknesses to be remediated based on materiality and circumstances.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

 

During the most recently completed fiscal year, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect it. 

 

Our Audit Committee is in process of evaluating our existing controls and procedures, while communicating with the Management on quarterly basis.

 

Audit Committee

 

We have a separately-designated standing audit committee, which is appointed by the Board of Directors of Cosmos Holdings Inc. On April 28, 2022, Dr Anastasios Aslidis was elected to serve on the Board of Directors and was appointed as a chair of the Audit Committee, replacing Mr Peter Goldstein, who submitted his resignation on the same date. Our three independent directors, Anastasios Aslidis, John Hoidas and Demetrios Demetriades serve on the Audit Committee. The primary function of the committee is to assist the Board of Directors in overseeing (1) the financial reporting and accounting processes of the Company, and (2) the financial statements audits of the Company. The Committee also prepares a written report to be included in the annual proxy statement of the Company pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations of the “SEC”. In furtherance of these purposes, the Committee shall maintain direct communication among the Company’s independent auditors and the Board of Directors. The independent auditors and any other registered public accounting firm engaged in preparing or issuing an audit report or performing other audit review or attest services for the Company shall report directly to the Committee and are ultimately accountable to the Committee and the Board of Directors.

 

In discharging its oversight role, the Committee is authorized to investigate any matter brought to its attention with full access to all books, records, facilities and personnel of the Company. The Committee shall have the sole authority to retain at the Company’s expense outside legal, accounting or other advisors to advise the Committee and to receive appropriate funding, as determined by the Committee, from the Company for the payment of the compensation of such advisors and for the payment of ordinary administrative expenses of the Committee that are necessary to carry out its duties. The Committee may request any officer or employee of the Company or the Company’s outside counsel or independent auditors to attend a meeting of the Committee or to meet with any member of, or advisors to, the Committee. The Committee may also meet with the Company’s investment bankers or financial analysts who follow the Company.

 

The Committee shall meet no less frequently than four times per year, with additional meetings as circumstances warrant. The Committee shall also meet periodically with management, the internal auditors, if any, and the independent auditors in separate executive sessions. The Committee shall record the minutes of all such meetings and shall submit the minutes of its meetings to, or discuss the matters deliberated at each meeting with, the Board of Directors. The Company’s chief financial or accounting officer shall function as the management liaison officer to the Committee.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

There have been no changes since the filing of the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

We have received notices from Nasdaq of non-compliance with continued listing standards, which if we fail to comply with, our Common Stock could be delisted.

 

Pursuant to an initial non-compliance letter from the Nasdaq Capital Market, dated July 26, 2022, the Company has one hundred eighty (180) calendar days from July 26, 2022 to regain compliance by the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock being at least $1.00 per share for ten (10) consecutive trading days. In the event we do not regain compliance by January 23, 2023, we may be eligible for an additional one hundred eighty (180) calendar day grace period. However, pursuant to a second non-compliance letter dated November 10, 2022 from the Nasdaq Capital Market, the Staff determined to delist the Company’s securities pursuant to Rule 5810(c)(3)(A)(iii), as the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock was below $0.10 per share for ten (10) consecutive trading days. The Company will request an appeal of the delisting determination by requesting a hearing to stay the automatic suspension of the Company’s securities and the filing of a Form 25-NSE with the SEC to remove the Company’s securities from listing and registration on the Nasdaq Stock Market.

 

If we fail to meet the Nasdaq Capital Market’s ongoing listing criteria, our Common Stock could be delisted. If our Common Stock is delisted by the Nasdaq Capital Market, our Common Stock may be eligible for quotation on an over-the-counter quotation system or on the pink sheets. Upon any such delisting, our Common Stock would become subject to the regulations of the SEC relating to the market for penny stocks. The regulations applicable to penny stocks may severely affect the market liquidity for our Common Stock and could limit the ability of stockholders to sell such securities in the secondary market. In such a case, an investor may find it more difficult to dispose of or obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our Common Stock, and there can be no assurance that our Common Stock will be eligible for trading or quotation on any alternative exchanges or markets.

 

Delisting from the Nasdaq Capital Market could adversely affect our ability to raise additional financing through public or private sales of equity securities, would significantly affect the ability of investors to trade our securities and would negatively affect the value and liquidity of our Common Stock. Delisting could also have other negative results, including the potential loss of confidence by employees, the loss of institutional investor interest and fewer business development opportunities.

 

Although there is no assurance, we expect that the shareholder proposal at our scheduled December 2, 2022 Annual Shareholders Meeting, to provide the Board of Directors with the discretion to effect a reverse stock split, if necessary, will enable us to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid-price requirement for continued listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market.
