Company Background

The Company was formed in Nevada in August 30, 2002 as IntelSource Group, Inc. and began operations in 2003. In 2007, IntelSource Group, Inc. merged with ElectroMedical Technologies, LLC. The Company began acting as Electro Medical Technologies, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company on November 9, 2010 after the merger with ElectroMedical Technologies, LLC, a Nevada Company. The Company converted to a corporation in the State of Delaware on August 23, 2017.

Electromedical Technologies is a bioelectronics manufacturing and marketing company. We offer U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cleared medical devices for pain management.

Bioelectronics is a developing field of “electronic” medicine, which uses electrical impulses over the body’s neural circuitry to try to alleviate pain, without drugs. The human body is controlled by electrical signals sent through the nervous system, which can become distorted after accidents or as a result of disease. The field of bioelectronic medicine aims to safely correct irregularities in the nervous system by modifying the electrical language of the body related to pain relief.

Additionally, we have a corporate goal to offer the public effective alternatives to addictive pain-relieving drugs, such as opioids. According to the Society of Actuaries, opioid overdose deaths are now the single largest factor slowing the growth in U.S. life expectancy and has led to stagnation or decreases in life expectancy three years in a row for the first time since 1915–1918, when the country was facing World War I and the Spanish flu pandemic. The U.S. Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has reported that, from 1999 through 2017, nearly 400,000 have died from overdoses from prescription or illicit opioids. It is our aim to offer effective alternatives to pain management.

We believe that we do this by delivering innovative solutions providing fast and long-lasting pain relief across the broadest range of ailments. We engineer simple-to-use bioelectronics therapy devices, which send a proprietary sequence of electrical signals. We believe our devices have proven to be highly effective over the past decade and have the technological capability to be used in medical research.

The Company is publicly traded on the OTC Markets under the symbol EMED.

Business Overview

Electromedical Technologies is a bioelectronics manufacturing and marketing company. We offer U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cleared medical devices for pain management.

Table of Contents

Our mission is to improve global wellness for people suffering from various painful conditions by relieving chronic and acute pain using energy, frequency and vibration as an alternative to pharmaceuticals; and that one day, read and modify electrical signals passing along nerves in the body, to restore long-term health. We believe that we do this by delivering innovative solutions providing fast and long lasting pain relief across the broadest range of ailments. We engineer simple-to-use bioelectronics therapy devices, which send a proprietary sequence of electrical signals. We believe our devices have proven to be highly effective over the past decade and have the technological capability to be used in medical research.

We have a corporate goal to offer the public effective alternatives to addictive pain relieving drugs, such as opioids. According to the Society of Actuaries, opioid overdose deaths are now the single largest factor slowing the growth in U.S. life expectancy and has led to stagnation or decreases in life expectancy three years in a row for the first time since 1915–1918, when the country was facing World War I and the Spanish flu pandemic The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) reports that overdose deaths involving prescription opioids have quadrupled since 1999 and that drug overdoses now kill more people every year than gun violence or car accidents. From 1999 to 2017, more than 702,000 people have died from a drug overdose. In 2017, more than 70,000 people died from drug overdoses, making it a leading cause of injury-related death in the United States. It is our aim to offer effective nontoxic, noninvasive alternatives to pain management.

We believe that we can provide an opioid-free solution to over 100 million people suffering from chronic and acute pain just in the US market alone. In recent years, we have also focused on the market for U.S. military service veterans, many of which do not have many options other than powerful drugs that can cause side effects when it comes to treating chronic or acute pain. We intend to include a special program that will offer our new POD devices at no upfront cost for the veterans of U.S. armed forces and their immediate families, which according to the Census Bureau, as of 2014, consists of nearly 22 million individuals.

Industry and Regulatory Overview

Medical devices are regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) in the United States and can be regulated by foreign governments for devices sold internationally. The Company has medical device certifications in the USA (FDA),

The Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and regulations issued by the FDA regulate testing, manufacturing, packaging, and marketing of medical devices. Under the current regulations and standards, we believe that our devices are subject to general controls, including compliance with labeling and record-keeping rules. In addition, our medical devices require pre-market approval, which for TENS devices can be achieved through a 510(k) premarket notification submission.

Our manufacturing processes and facilities are also subject to regulations, including the FDA’s QSR requirements (formerly Good Manufacturing Practices). These regulations govern the way we manufacture our products and maintain documentation for our manufacturing, testing and control activities. In addition, to the extent we manufacture and sell products abroad, those products are subject to the relevant laws and regulations of those countries.

The labeling of our devices, our promotional activities and marketing materials are regulated by the FDA and various state agencies. Activities that are constrained by these regulations include the marketing of our products for “off-label” usage; that is, recommendations to use our products for purposes other than what is indicated in the labeling. Violations of this requirement may result in administrative, civil or criminal actions against the manufacturer or seller by the FDA or governing state agencies.

An element of our strategy is to continue to upgrade our products, add new features and expand clearance or approval of our current products to new indications. In the United States, before we can market a new medical device, or a new use of, new claim for or significant modification to an existing product, we must first receive either clearance under Section 510(k) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, or the FDCA, or approval of a premarket approval application, or PMA, from the FDA, unless an exemption applies. In the 510(k) clearance process, before a device may be marketed, the FDA must determine that a proposed device is “substantially equivalent” to a legally-marketed “predicate” device, which includes a device that has been previously cleared through the 510(k) process, a device that was legally marketed prior to May 28, 1976 (pre-amendments device), a device that was originally on the U.S. market pursuant to an approved PMA and later down-classified, or a 510(k)-exempt device. To be “substantially equivalent,” the proposed device must have the same intended use as the predicate device, and either have the same technological characteristics as the predicate device or have different technological characteristics and not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness than the predicate device. Clinical data are sometimes required to support substantial equivalence. In the PMA process, the FDA must determine

Table of Contents

that a proposed device is safe and effective for its intended use based, in part, on extensive data, including, but not limited to, technical, pre-clinical, clinical trial, manufacturing and labeling data. Our ability to successfully obtain clearance for any new indications will be dependent on us submitting data as to the successful completion of clinical trials evidencing safety and efficacy. The PMA process is typically required for devices that are deemed to pose the greatest risk, such as life-sustaining, life-supporting or implantable devices. However, some devices are automatically subject to the PMA pathway regardless of the level of risk they pose because they have not previously been classified into a lower risk class by the FDA. Manufacturers of these devices may request that FDA review such devices in accordance with the de novo classification procedure, which allows a manufacturer whose novel device would otherwise require the submission and approval of a PMA prior to marketing to request down-classification of the device on the basis that the device presents low or moderate risk. If the FDA agrees with the down classification, the applicant will then receive authorization to market the device. This device type can then be used as a predicate device for future 510(k) submissions. We initially received marketing authorization of our device through the de novo classification process, and we have made changes to our system through subsequent 510(k) clearances. The process of obtaining regulatory clearances or approvals, or completing the de novo classification process, to market a medical device can be costly and time consuming, and we may not be able to successfully obtain pre-market reviews on a timely basis, if at all.

Modifications to products that are approved through a PMA application generally require FDA approval. Similarly, certain modifications made to products cleared through a 510(k) or authorized through the de novo classification process may require a new 510(k) clearance. Each of the PMA approval, de novo classification and the 510(k) clearance processes can be expensive, lengthy and uncertain. The FDA’s 510(k) clearance process usually takes from three to 12 months, but can last longer. The process of obtaining a PMA is much more costly and uncertain than the 510(k) clearance process and generally takes from one to three years, or even longer, from the time the application is filed with the FDA. In addition, a PMA generally requires the performance of one or more clinical trials.

Despite the time, effort and cost, a device may not be approved or cleared by the FDA. Any delay or failure to obtain necessary regulatory approvals or clearances could harm our business. Furthermore, even if we are granted regulatory clearances or approvals, they may include significant limitations on the indicated uses for the device, which may limit the market for the device.

Any modifications to our existing products may require new 510(k) clearance; however, future modifications may be subject to the substantially more costly, time-consuming and uncertain PMA process. If the FDA requires us to go through a lengthier, more rigorous examination for future products or modifications to existing products than we had expected, product introductions or modifications could be delayed or canceled, which could cause our sales to decline.

The FDA can delay, limit or deny clearance or approval of a device for many reasons, including: we may be unable to demonstrate to the FDA’s satisfaction that the product or modification is substantially equivalent to the proposed predicate device or safe and effective for its intended use; the data from our pre-clinical studies and clinical trials may be insufficient to support clearance or approval, where required; and the manufacturing process or facilities we use may not meet applicable requirements.

Even if granted, a 510(k) clearance, de novo classification, or PMA approval imposes substantial restrictions on how our devices may be marketed or sold, and the FDA continues to place considerable restrictions on our products and operations. For example, the manufacture of medical devices must comply with the FDA’s Quality System Regulation, or QSR. In addition, manufacturers must register their manufacturing facilities, list the products with the FDA, and comply with requirements relating to labeling, marketing, complaint handling, adverse event and medical device reporting, reporting of corrections and removals, and import and export. The FDA monitors compliance with the QSR and these other requirements through periodic inspections. If our facilities or those of our manufacturers or suppliers are found to be in violation of applicable laws and regulations, or if we or our manufacturers or suppliers fail to take satisfactory corrective action in response to an adverse inspection, the regulatory authority could take enforcement action, including any of the following sanctions: untitled letters, warning letters, fines, injunctions, consent decrees and civil penalties; customer notifications or repair, replacement, refunds, detention or seizure of our products; operating restrictions or partial suspension or total shutdown of production; refusing or delaying requests for 510(k) marketing clearance or PMA approvals of new products or modified products; withdrawing 510(k) marketing clearances or PMA approvals that have already been granted; refusing to provide Certificates for Foreign Government; refusing to grant export approval for our products; or pursuing criminal prosecution. Any of these sanctions could impair our ability to produce our products in a cost-effective and timely manner in order to meet our customers’ demands, and could have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business, results of operations and financial condition. We may also be required to bear other costs or take other actions that may have a negative impact on our sales and our ability to generate profits.

In addition, the FDA may change its clearance and approval policies, adopt additional regulations or revise existing regulations, or take other actions, which may prevent or delay approval or clearance of our future products under development or impact our ability to modify our currently cleared products on a timely basis. Such policy or regulatory changes could impose additional requirements upon us that could delay our ability to obtain new 510(k) clearances, increase the costs of compliance or restrict our ability to maintain our

Table of Contents

current clearances. We also cannot predict the likelihood, nature or extent of government regulation that may arise from future legislation or administrative or executive action, either in the United States or abroad. For example, certain policies of the Trump administration may impact our business and industry. Namely, the Trump administration has taken several executive actions, including the issuance of a number of Executive Orders, that could impose significant burdens on, or otherwise materially delay, the FDA’s ability to engage in routine regulatory and oversight activities such as implementing statutes through rulemaking, issuance of guidance, and review and approval of marketing applications. It is difficult to predict how these executive actions, including the Executive Orders, will be implemented, and the extent to which they will impact the FDA’s ability to exercise its regulatory authority. If these executive actions impose constraints on FDA’s ability to engage in oversight and implementation activities in the normal course, our business may be negatively impacted.

In order to sell our products in member countries of the EEA our products must comply with the essential requirements of the EU Medical Devices Directive (Council Directive 93/42/EEC). Compliance with these requirements is a prerequisite to be able to affix the CE Mark to our products, without which they cannot be sold or marketed in the EEA. To demonstrate compliance with the essential requirements we must undergo a conformity assessment procedure, which varies according to the type of medical device and its classification. Except for low-risk medical devices (Class I non-sterile, non-measuring devices), where the manufacturer can issue an EC Declaration of Conformity based on a self-assessment of the conformity of its products with the essential requirements of the EU Medical Devices Directive, a conformity assessment procedure requires the intervention of an organization accredited by a Member State of the EEA to conduct conformity assessments, or a Notified Body. Depending on the relevant conformity assessment procedure, the Notified Body would typically audit and examine the technical file and the quality system for the manufacture, design and final inspection of our devices. The Notified Body issues a certificate of conformity following successful completion of a conformity assessment procedure conducted in relation to the medical device and its manufacturer and their conformity with the essential requirements. This certificate entitles the manufacturer to affix the CE Mark to its medical devices after having prepared and signed a related EC Declaration of Conformity.

Principal Products and Services

WellnessPro Plus

Our principal product, WellnessPro Plus, is an intelligent and effective bioelectronics therapy prescription device; and is used by consumers and health care professionals to relieve chronic and acute pain. Research studies have shown the efficacy of bioelectronics therapy in the treatment of chronic pain from a variety of ailments including: arthritis, chronic low back pain, fibromyalgia, diabetic neuropathy, Lyme disease, osteoarthritis, and neuropathic pain. This medical device is classified in the FDA as a transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (“TENS”) device. We believe, based on consumer and professional testimonials from the past decade that our device has been on the market, that the WellnessPro Plus treats pain conditions faster with longer-lasting relief, compared to lower cost conventional TENS devises. We attribute this in part to our proprietary algorithm and technology that we call the “DeepPulse.” With the DeepPulse there are close to one million frequency ranges to choose from to help prevent accommodation. The device can also generate micro-current stimulation to mimic the body’s own electric signals.

The device sends a proprietary sequence of electrical signals that change at various times, preventing accommodation (where the body adapts to specific treatments, diminishing treatment effectiveness). Also, our proprietary DeepPulse pre-modulation technology allows signals to penetrate deeper into affected areas, which we believe produces faster, longer-lasting pain relief. Additionally, our micro-current mode delivers signals, which naturally mimic the body’s signals, triggering the body’s own natural ability to relieve pain via "endorphin release" and accelerating the ION pump exchange. This allows for reduction of pain, increased microcirculation and oxygenation of red blood cells, which in turn helps the body de-stress from pain and trigger natural, healthy processes necessary for better health.

We are finalizing development of an enhanced version of our Wellness Pro Plus that we intend to market under the name “Wellness Pro Plus Infinity.” This device will include expanded bioelectric modalities, safety, and efficacy. We expect that the Wellness Pro Plus Infinity will be ready for market in fiscal 2023.

WellnessPro POD and Wellness ION Pen

We are planning to bring two new products to market – extending the Wellness Product line: the WellnessPro POD, our first wearable product, and the Wellness ION Pen. We believe that the WellnessPro POD represents an exciting product line expansion as a “clinical-grade” wearable device, that is intended to treat chronic pain, PTSD, anxiety, depression and insomnia. We intend to sell this device over-the-counter; however, some modalities on this device may only be provided with a prescription. Our target market for the

Table of Contents

WellnessPro POD is chronic pain sufferers, which is estimated to be 100 million individuals in the United States alone. We intend to focus on various segments in this market, including veterans of U.S. armed forces, which according to the Census Bureau, as of 2014, consists of nearly 22 million individuals. Our goal is to educate the medical community of the benefits of "natural", non-invasive, non-toxic pain relief and for the WellnessPro POD to be an initial choice for practitioners to prescribe separately or in conjunction with pain medication.

Both of these new products will integrate with the WellnessPro Plus to leverage the engineering breakthroughs and intellectual property found in the WellnessPro Plus, and yet will still function as standalone devices.

WellnessPro POD

●

The WellnessPro POD is a compact “clinical-grade” wearable intended to keep pace with the evolution in pain management across practice segments, which will expand the range of treated modalities from chronic and acute pain to include PTSD, anxiety, depression and insomnia.

Wellness ION Pen

●

The Wellness ION Pen is a unique interferential cold laser used to deliver targeted frequency stimulation. This therapeutic laser, which we intend to sell over-the-counter, will deliver expanded wavelengths relative to comparable lasers combined with micro-stimulation. We believe this will improve circulation and tissue healing and reduce inflammation and pain. The Wellness ION Pen will also have cosmetic applications for skin issues

Market

The Wellness line of products is intended for anyone living with pain caused by various medical conditions or trauma, or who is battling pharmaceutical (e.g., opioid) dependency or addiction. The products can be purchased directly by consumers or used by healthcare practitioners, including:

●

Chiropractors;

●

Physiotherapists;

●

Pain management doctors and clinicians;

●

Natural medicine doctors;

●

Sports medicine doctors; and

●

Athletic trainers.

According to information provided by the American Academy of Pain Medicine, at least 100 million Americans suffer from chronic pain, not including acute pain for children. We believe that Electromedical represents a tested, proven solution for different segments of the population.

We plan to address these individuals directly as well as through their healthcare providers. There are approximately 77,000 chiropractors and 123,000 physiotherapists in the United States. Combined, over 200,000 healthcare practitioners focused on rehabilitation and pain relief – not to mention practitioners involved in sports medicine, natural medicine and pain management.

In addition, we believe there are certain niche markets that our products are well suited to address. As discussed above, we expect that veterans will be the first market for the WellnessPro POD as it addresses the various needs our veteran population is suffering from.

Further, we believe that our products can help provide a solution to the opioid problem. Our current product, the WellnessPro Plus, assists with the recovery from opioid addiction. We believe that the WellnessPro POD will also be highly effective for pain management and relief and could be used as an alternative, or can be prescribed in conjunction with pain medication, to reduce the amount of deaths and addictions due to Opioid abuse and misuse.

Strategy

Electromedical Technologies, for the first fifteen years of its existence, has been fortunate to have grown “organically” without formal sales and marketing programs and investments. We believe this is fundamentally because of the product’s ability to deliver uncommon

Table of Contents

levels of pain relief better quality of life and wellness for thousands of customers (our “raving fans”). These raving fans subsequently shared their miraculous stories of recovery – some of which can be found on our website. We believe that those testimonials influenced thousands of people living with ailments and pain to turn to the WellnessPro Plus for relief. These changes in with the additional capital we are planning to raise. In 2023 and beyond, Electromedical will engage in a comprehensive and fully integrated marketing program to increase sales and build the Electromedical brand. The integrated marketing program will include the following elements:

Website marketing.

Using sophisticated tools integrated with our website, such as marketing automation, we will automate the process of nurturing web visitors and increasing sales.

●

Digital marketing.

Using advanced approaches for improving Electromedical’s organic and paid search optimization results, we will increase traffic to and sales from our website.

●

Social marketing and advertising.

Using a comprehensive approach to marketing across the primary social channels (twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram), we will engage consumers and influencers (associations), elevate the brand and increase sales directly and indirectly.

Social marketing will also include the thoughtful use of Facebook ads and LinkedIn sponsored posts to drive web traffic and increase sales.

●

Content marketing.

Using a thoughtful approach to newsletters and blog content, we will elevate the brand and increase sales directly and indirectly.

●

Partner and association marketing.

We will selectively identify associations and partners that can help elevate the brand and increase sales. Examples of associations that we intend to target include the American Chiropractic Association, which may provide an important opportunity to increase awareness, exercise thought leadership and drive sales.

●

Trade show marketing

We will evaluate and participate in selective medical device and wellness trade shows, which elevate the brand and increase sales.

In addition to a comprehensive marketing program, Electromedical will make strategic investments in sales staff, training and support, all intended to expand distribution and sales.

●

Sales Staff: On March 8, 2022, Electromedical retained a Director of Business and Sales Development to further develop its business opportunities in various geographic areas.

●

National Technical Training Manager: Electromedical intends to hire a National Technical Training Manager to develop and implement training programs.

Research and Development

The Company has a number of products in various stages of research and development. We are finalizing development of an enhanced version of our Wellness Pro Plus that we intend to market under the name “Wellness Pro Plus Infinity.” This device will include expanded bioelectric modalities, safety, and efficacy. We expect that the Wellness Pro Plus Infinity will be ready for market in fiscal 2023.

Any future determination as to the declaration and payment of dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on then-existing law, conditions, including our financial condition, operating results, contractual restrictions, capital requirements, business prospects, and other factors our board of directors may deem relevant.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The statements contained in this report that are not statements of historical fact, including without limitation, statements containing the words “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates” and similar words, constitute forward-looking statements that are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. From time to time we may make other forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned that such forward-looking statements are subject to an inherent risk that actual results may materially differ as a result of many factors, including the risks discussed from time to time in this report, including the risks described under “Risk Factors” in any filings we have made with the SEC.

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.

Table of Contents

On an on-going basis, we evaluate these estimates, including those related to useful lives of real estate assets, bad debts, impairment, contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates.

Background

Electromedical Technologies is a bioelectronics manufacturing and marketing company. We offer U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cleared medical devices for pain management.

Additionally, we have a corporate goal to offer the public effective alternatives to addictive pain relieving drugs, such as opiods. According to the Society of Actuaries, opioid overdose deaths are now the single largest factor slowing the growth in U.S. life expectancy and has led to stagnation or decreases in life expectancy three years in a row for the first time since 1915–1918, when the country was facing World War I and the Spanish flu pandemic. The U.S. Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has reported that, from 1999 through 2017, nearly 400,000 have died from overdoses from prescription or illicit opiods. It is our aim to offer effective alternatives to pain management.

Critical Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition

The FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, codified as ASC 606: Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The Company adopted ASC 606 effective January 1, 2019 using modified retrospective basis and the cumulative effect was immaterial to the financial statements.

Revenues are recognized in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, when performance obligations are satisfied through the transfer of promised goods to the Company’s customers. Control transfers upon shipment of product and when the title has been passed to the customers. This includes the transfer of legal title, physical possession, the risks and rewards of ownership, and customer acceptance. Revenue is recorded net of sales taxes collected from customers on behalf of taxing authorities, allowance for estimated returns, chargebacks, and markdowns based upon management’s estimates and the Company’s historical experience. The Company’s liability for sales return refunds is recognized within other current liabilities, and an asset for the value of inventory which is expected to be returned is recognized within other current assets on the balance sheets.

Equity Issued with Convertible Debt

The Company is required to issue warrants in conjunction with certain convertible debt. The warrants qualified for equity accounting as the warrants did not fall within the scope of ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. The warrants were measured at fair value at the time of issuance and classified as equity.

The Company values the warrants using a Black Scholes Merton pricing model and records the warrants as a reduction of the notes included in the debt discount balance.

January 1, 2022 through December 31,2022 Compared to January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021

Our sales totaled $1,149,844 for the year ended December 31, 2022 and $907,362 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase is primarily related to an increase in units sold.

Cost of sales and gross margins for the year ended December 31, 2022 and for the year ended December 31, 2021 were $261,203 and 77% and $199,234 and 78%, respectively. Our cost of sales consists of the cost of materials and distribution expenses. Cost of sales and gross margins are affected by product mix as well as the mix in the level of sales between commissioned agents and distributors.

The following table sets forth the operating expenses for the years ended December 31:


	2022		2021		Change
Sales and marketing	$	30,566		92,608		(62,042)
Commissions		220,567		207,264		13,303
Payroll related		963,177		2,441,758		(1,478,581)

	$	2,492,169	$	4,508,391	$	(2,016,222)

The following table sets forth the stock- based compensation expense included in the above operating expenses for the years ended December 31:


	2022		2021		Change
Sales and marketing	$	8,000	$	—	$	8,000
Payroll related		14,703		1,666,716		(1,652,013)

	$	509,603	$	2,630,144	$	(2,120,541)

Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of payroll related expenses, commissions, consulting and professional fees, sales and marketing, research and development and other operating expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $2,492,169 for the year ended December 31, 2022 and $4,508,391 for the year ended December 31, 2021, a decrease of $2,016,222 or about 45%. The change is primarily due to decreases in stock-based compensation expense of $2,120,541, research and development costs of $123,021 and marketing costs of $62,042, partially offset by non -stock-based compensation related increases in payroll related costs of $173,432 and other operating expenses of $79,923. Stock-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2021, includes $963,428 related to third party agreements for financial and strategic advisory services, $604,890 related to shares of common stock issued to the Company’s CEO as compensation and $1,061,826 related to cashless warrants issued to the Company’s CEO and a key employee. Stock-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2022, includes $461,900 related to third party agreements for financial and strategic advisory services, $25,000 for director’s fees and $10,000 for shares of Series A preferred stock issued to the Company’s CEO as compensation.

Table of Contents

The decrease in research and development costs reflects the initial development payment of approximately $122,000 made under contract in the 2021 period. Ongoing payments are made upon achievement of certain contractual milestones. The decrease in consulting and professional fees is the result of stock-based compensation recorded in conjunction with shares issued for investor relations and financial advisory services. The decrease in marketing expenses is due to the termination of various third- party arrangements.

The non -stock-based compensation increase in payroll related costs consists primarily of additional employee headcount and an increase in bonus paid to the Company’s CEO of approximately $29,000. The non-stock-based compensation increase in other operating expenses relates primarily to costs associated public company insurance premiums and increased travel for sales and marketing efforts.

Other expense decreased by $2,814,914 primarily due to a decrease in interest expense of $2,522,780, and a decrease in gain in the change in fair market value of derivative liabilities of $1,415,685, partially offset by a loss on extinguishment of debt of $1,079,800. The decrease in interest expense reflects a decrease in the amortization of debt discount related to debt conversions and maturities that occurred since June 2021 as well as no day 1 derivative loss for newly incurred debt in the 2022 period, as compared to the 2021 period. All derivative liabilities were settled as of December 31, 2021.

As a result of the foregoing, we recorded a net loss of $3,468,500 for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to a net loss of $8,480,149 for year ended December 31, 2021. The decrease in net loss is primarily attributed to the decrease in other expense, the decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses and increased gross profit.

COVID-19 may impact our business.

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern” and on March 11, 2020, declared it to be a pandemic. Actions taken around the world to help mitigate the spread of the COVID-19 include restrictions on travel, and quarantines in certain areas, and forced closures for certain types of public places and businesses. COVID-19, and actions taken to mitigate it, have had and are expected to continue to have an adverse impact on the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the geographical areas in which we operate. While it is unknown how long these conditions will last and what the complete financial effect will be to the Company, COVID-19 may have an adverse effect on our business. While we are taking diligent steps to mitigate any possible disruptions to our business, we are unable to predict the extent or nature of these impacts, at this time, to our future financial condition and results of operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During the year ended December 31, 2022, our cash and cash equivalents decreased by $14,745 reflecting cash used in operations of $773,337, and net proceeds from financing activities of $758,592. At December 31, 2022, the Company had a working capital deficit of $2,276,373 and cash on hand of $368,425.

The Company requires additional capital to service its working capital deficit and fund future operations. The Company expects to obtain funding through additional debt and equity placement offerings until it consistently achieves positive cash flows from operations. If the Company is unable to obtain additional funding, it may not be able to meet all of its obligations as they come due for the next twelve months. The continuing viability of the entity and its ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the entity being successful in its continuing efforts in growing its revenue base and/or accessing additional sources of capital, and/or selling assets. Our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm included an explanatory paragraph regarding substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

As of the date of this filing, the Company is currently in default with one its lenders, for non-payment of two matured convertible promissory notes issued on October 13, 2021, and February 11, 2022, with principal and interest due in the amounts of $78,495 and $95,410, respectively. Further, and as a result of the Company's sale of its real property on March 15, 2023, the Company is in default with its unmatured convertible promissory note issued to the lender on September 15, 2022. The convertible promissory notes issued to the lender all contain provisions for default amounts equal to the principal amounts, plus accrued interest, and default interest, through the date of repayment, multiplied by 125%.

Separately, and also as a result of the Company's sale of its real property on March 15, 2023, the Company is in default respecting unmatured convertible promissory notes issued to two lenders on February 11, 2022, and August 8, 2022, in the principal amounts of $307,500 and $176,000, respectively, each not including interest due. One convertible note included a cross-default provision which required the Company to remit full repayment of interest and principal due through the date of full repayment multiplied by 125%.

Table of Contents

As of the date of this filing, the note holders have agreed to temporarily waive the respective defaults, including principal, interest, default penalties, and default amounts, and to enter into negotiations to reform the respective outstanding convertible notes payable. Accordingly, no amounts were accrued as a result of the defaults.

Operating Activities

Cash flows used in operating activities totaled $773,337 for the year ended December 31, 2022 as compared to cash flows used of $1,193,688 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The decrease in cash flows used in operating activities is primarily the result of improved operating results, a decrease in inventory purchases and deposits and increased customer deposits, partially offset by an increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities.

Financing Activities

Cash flows provided by financing activities totaled $758,592 for the year ended December 31, 2022 as compared to $1,311,945 for the year ended December 31, 2021. The cash flows provided in the 2022 period reflect $1,545,140 in net proceeds from convertible promissory notes and $42,766 from the sale of common stock, partially offset by repayment of convertible promissory notes and related party notes payable totaling $803,959. The cash flows provided in the 2021 period are primarily the result of $1,510,000 in net proceeds from convertible promissory notes partially offset by related party notes payable repayments totaling $158,875.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company issued convertible promissory notes to certain investors totaling $1,859,480 with net proceeds of $1,545,140. Original issue discount totaling $185,580, loan costs totaling $128,760 and the fair value of warrants issued or to be issued to third party advisors of $110,552 have been recorded as a discount on the notes. The notes accrue interest at 12% per annum and have initial conversion prices of $0.015-$0.025, with the exception of one note, subject to adjustment and mature nine months to one year from issuance. One note is only convertible upon default and at a 25% discount to trading prices during the ten days prior to conversion election. As additional consideration for the financings, the Company issued the lenders three to five-year warrants to purchase a total of 21,000,000 shares of common stock at an initial price of $0.025 per share, and three to five-year trigger warrants to purchase a total of 173,000,000 shares of common stock at $0.015- $0.025 per share, subject to price adjustments for certain actions, including dilutive issuances. The relative fair value of the warrants totaling $385,422 has been recorded as a discount on the notes. The trigger warrants may only be exercised if the convertible promissory notes are not paid in full at the maturity dates. The warrants do not provide for registration rights. As of the date of this filing, warrants to purchase 25,000,000 shares of common stock have been triggered.

In January and February 2022, the Company sold 1,500,000 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $0.0259- $0.0353 under a stock purchase agreement with net proceeds totaling $42,766.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and

Stockholders of Electromedical Technologies, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Electromedical Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows, for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a negative working capital balance, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2022 AND 2021

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Electro Medical Technologies, LLC (“the Company”), was formed in November 2010 as an Arizona limited liability company. In August 2017, the Company converted to a Delaware C Corporation under Electromedical Technologies, Inc. The Company is a bioelectronic engineering company with medical device certifications in the United States (FDA) and Mexico (Cofepris). The Company engineers simple-to-use portable bioelectronics devices, which provide fast and long -lasting pain relief across a broad range of ailments.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting Method

The Company maintains its accounting records on an accrual method in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities, certain disclosures at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates affecting the financial statements have been prepared on the basis of the most current and best available information. However, actual results from the resolution of such estimates and assumptions may vary from those used in the preparation of the financial statements.

Going Concern

Since inception, the Company has incurred approximately $21.1 million of accumulated net losses. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company used $773,337 in operations and had a working capital deficit of $2.3 million. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company expects to obtain funding through additional debt and equity placement offerings until it consistently achieves positive cash flows from operations. If the Company is unable to obtain additional funding, it may not be able to meet all of its obligations as they come due for the next twelve months. The continuing viability of the entity and its ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the entity being successful in its continuing efforts in growing its revenue base and/or accessing additional sources of capital, and/or selling assets.

As a result, there is significant uncertainty whether the entity will continue as a going concern and, therefore, whether it will realize its assets and settle its liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business and at the amounts stated in the financial statements.

Accordingly, no adjustments have been made to the financial statements relating to the recoverability and classification of the asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the entity not continue as a going concern. At this time, management is of the opinion that no asset is likely to be realized for an amount less than the amount at which it is recorded in the financial statements as at December 31, 2022.

Revenue Recognition

The FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, codified as ASC 606: Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The Company adopted ASC 606 effective January 1,2019 using modified retrospective basis and the cumulative effect was immaterial to the financial statements.

Table of Contents

asset for the value of inventory which is expected to be returned is recognized within other current assets on the balance sheets. The Company generally allows a 30 day right of return to its customers. As of both December 31, 2022 and 2021, the sales returns allowance was $6,990.

Certain larger customers pay in advance for future shipments. These advance payments totaled $217,588 and $0 at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and are recorded as customer deposits in the accompanying balance sheets. Revenue related to these advance payments is recognized upon shipment to the distributor or the end-customer.

At the completion of the initial three-year warranty, the Company sells extended warranties for periods ranging from one to three years. Revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract. At December 31, 2022 and 2021, deferred revenue of $23,313 and $28,252 is recorded, respectively, in current liabilities in the accompanying balance sheets, in connection with these extended warranties.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at amounts due from customers, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, and the Company generally does not require collateral. As a general policy, the Company determines an allowance for doubtful accounts by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, the Company’s previous loss history, the customer’s current ability to pay its obligation to the Company, and the condition of the general economy and industry as a whole. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts.

The Company recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $1,000 as of both December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Financial Instruments and Concentrations of Business and Credit Risk

The Company maintains cash balances that can, at times, exceed amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company has not experienced any losses in these accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk.

The Company’s accounts receivable, which are unsecured, expose the Company to credit risks such as collectability and business risks such as customer concentrations. The Company mitigates credit risk by investigating the creditworthiness of all customers prior to establishing relationships with them, performing periodic review of the credit activities of those customers during the course of the business relationship, regularly analyzing the collectability of accounts receivables, and recording allowances for doubtful accounts when these receivables become uncollectible. The Company mitigates business risks by attempting to diversify its customer base.

Significant customer sales greater than 10% as a percentage of total sales are as follows:


	YEAR ENDED DEC 31,
	2022		2021
Customer A	23.5	%	19.6	%
Customer B	13.5	%	12.8	%
Customer C	—		10.5	%

Amounts due these customers totaled $14,047 and $13,900 at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively for commissions and reimbursements. Amounts due from these customers totaled $0 and $12,800 at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Customer deposits on hand from these customers totaled $66,445 and $0 at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The loss of these customers would have a significant impact on the operations and cash flows of the Company.

Table of Contents

The Company’s supplier concentrations expose the Company to business risks, which the Company mitigates by attempting to diversify its supply chain. Significant supplier purchases, including inventory deposits, as a percentage of total inventory purchases are as follows:


	YEAR ENDED DEC 31,
	2022		2021
Supplier A	81.6	%	86.7	%

There were no amounts outstanding due this supplier at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The loss of key vendors may have a significant impact on the operations and cash flows of the Company.

The estimated fair value of financial instruments has been determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is often required to interpret market data used to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented may not be indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies could have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

Disclosure of Fair Value

The disclosure requirements within Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 820-10, Fair Value Measurement, require disclosure of estimated fair values of certain financial instruments. For financial instruments recognized at fair value in the Company’s statements of operations, the disclosure requirements of ASC Topic 820-10 also apply. The methods and assumptions are set forth below:

●

Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value.

●

The carrying amounts of receivables approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities.

●

The carrying amounts of payables approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities.

Asset and liabilities measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories based on inputs:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date

Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset and liability or can be corroborated with observable market data for substantially the entire contractual term of the asset or liability

Level 3 — Pricing inputs include significant unobservable inputs used in determining the fair value of investments. The types of investments, which would generally be included in this category include equity securities issued by private entities.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the determination of which category within the fair value hierarchy is appropriate for any given investment is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the investment.

The following table presents changes during the year ended December 31, 2021 in Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:


Fair value- December 31, 2020	$	831,852
Change in fair value of derivative liabilities		1,415,685
Derivative liabilities in conjunction with convertible promissory notes		1,197,607
Conversion of convertible promissory notes		(3,445,144)
Fair value- December 31, 2021	$	—

There were not Level 3 liabilities in 2022.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined based on the first-in, first-out cost flow assumption (“FIFO”) while market is determined based upon the estimated net realizable value less an allowance for selling and distribution expenses and a normal gross profit. The Company evaluates the need for inventory reserves associated with obsolete, slow moving, and non-sellable inventory by reviewing estimated net realizable values on a periodic basis. As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, the Company believes there are no excess and obsolete inventories and accordingly, did not record an inventory reserve. Inventories consist of purchased finished goods.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost and is comprised of a building and office furniture and equipment. The building is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of 40 years. Office furniture and equipment is depreciated using the double-declining method or the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of three to seven years.

Betterments, renewals, and extraordinary repairs that materially extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized; other repairs and maintenance charges are expensed as incurred. The cost and related accumulated depreciation applicable to assets retired are removed from the accounts, and the gain or loss on disposition, if any, is recognized in the accompanying statements of operations.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, long-lived assets such as property and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized on long-lived assets when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted future cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the carrying amount of the assets. In such cases, the carrying value of these assets are adjusted to their estimated fair values and assets held for sale are adjusted to their estimated fair values less selling expenses.

No impairment losses of long-lived assets were recognized for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Income Taxes

The Company, which was formed as a Limited liability Company in Arizona, previously filed an Entity Classification Election, commonly known as a check-the-box-election, to be classified as a corporation for tax purposes. The Company also made an election to be treated for income tax purposes as an S corporation. Under U.S. and Arizona law, the taxable income or loss of an S corporation is included in the shareholder’s income tax returns. In August 2017, the Company converted to a Delaware Corporation. The conversion was tax-free under Internal Revenue Code Section 368(a)(1)(F) and is referred to as an F-reorganization, which is typically defined as a mere change in identity, form or place of organization. Management elected to terminate the S corporation election effective January 1, 2018 and the Company will operate for tax purposes as a C corporation from that date forward.

The Company follows the provisions of uncertain tax positions as addressed in FASB ASC Subtopic 740-10-65-1, Income Taxes. The Company has no such tax positions as of both December 31, 2022 and 2021, for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in selling, general and administrative expenses. No such interest or penalties were recognized during the periods presented. The Company had no accruals for interest and penalties as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to examination by U.S. federal tax authorities for returns filed for the prior three years and by state and local income tax authorities for returns filed for the prior four years. There are no examinations currently pending.

The Company’s tax provision for 2022 related to deferred tax charges consisting of accrued liabilities, customer deposits and accounts payable, for which the Company will receive the benefit from when paid and the net operating loss incurred during 2022. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company evaluated its deferred tax assets of $933,627 and determined a full valuation allowance was appropriate since it is not more likely than not that the Company will produce income in the foreseeable future to utilize the Net Operating Loss (NOL) carryforward. Deferred tax assets related primarily to book to tax timing differences pertaining to accrued liabilities of $193,848, accounts payable of $13,457 and customer deposits of $56,355 after applying a blended federal and state effective tax rate of 25.9%. In addition, the deferred tax balance also increased as a result of the federal NOL increasing to $42,789 after applying

Table of Contents

the 21% federal tax rate. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the valuation allowance increased by $53,288 to fully offset the increase in the deferred tax asset

The Company’s tax provision for 2021 related to deferred tax charges consisting of accrued liabilities and accounts payable, for which the Company will receive the benefit from when paid and the net operating loss incurred during 2021. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company evaluated its deferred tax assets of $880,340 and determined a full valuation allowance was appropriate. Deferred tax assets related primarily to accrued liabilities and accounts payable of $132,945 and net operating losses of $747,395. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the valuation allowance increased by $333,084.

For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 the Company’s net operating loss carry forward was increased by $214,257 and $1,339,245, respectively. NOLs originating in 2021 and 2022 can be carried forward indefinitely until the loss is fully recovered, but they are limited to 80% of the taxable income in any one tax period. However, this 80% limitation was removed for the 2018, 2019, and 2020 tax years by the CARES Act, which also allows for a 5-year carryback of the NOLs generated in 2018 and 2019. The difference between the statutory rate of 21% and the effective tax rate is due to permanent differences and a full valuation allowance. The Company was granted a PPP loan from the SBA in 2020 in the amount of $39,500 that was fully forgiven in 2021. This amount was treated as a permanent book to tax difference for federal tax reporting purposes in 2021 and fully excluded as a nontaxable income item. Total net loss operating carry forward at December 31, 2022 and 2021 totaled $4,090,409 and $3,876,152, respectively.

Sales Taxes

Sales taxes for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 were recorded on a net basis. Included in accrued expenses at both December 31,2022 and 2021 is approximately $61,000 related to sales taxes.

Shipping and Handling Costs

The Company included shipping and handling costs in cost of sales on the accompanying statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021.

Warranty

The Company warranties the sale of most of its products and records an accrual for estimated future claims. The standard warranty is typically for a period of three years. Such accruals are based upon historical experience and management’s estimate of the level of future claims. The Company recorded a liability as of, December 31, 2022 and 2021 of $12,679 and $14,828, respectively. The expense is included in cost of sales in the statements of operations and within accrued expenses on the accompanying balance sheets.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Total research and development costs amounted to $92,299 and $215,320 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Total research and development costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the accompanying statements of operations.

Net Loss per Share

Net earnings or loss per share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding shares subject to redemption or forfeiture. The Company presents basic and diluted net earnings or loss per share. Diluted net earnings or loss per share reflect the actual weighted average of common shares issued and outstanding during the period, adjusted for potentially dilutive securities outstanding. Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of the diluted net loss per share if their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. As all potentially dilutive securities are anti-dilutive as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share for each year. Stock options, warrants, accrued liabilities to be converted to common stock and convertible promissory notes with underlying shares totaling 231,796,422 and 32,883,205 at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, have not been included in the net loss per share calculation. The number of underlying shares related to convertible promissory notes may vary based upon the actual date of conversion.

COVID-19

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern” and on March 10, 2020, declared it to be a pandemic. Actions taken around the world to help mitigate the spread of the COVID-19 include restrictions on travel, and quarantines in certain areas, and forced closures for certain types of public places and

Table of Contents

businesses. COVID-19, and actions taken to mitigate it, have had and are expected to continue to have an adverse impact on the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the geographical area in which the Company operates. While we are taking diligent steps to mitigate disruptions to our supply chain, we are unable to predict the extent or nature of these impacts at this time to our future financial condition and results of operations.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2020, the FASB issued 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): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”). This update simplifies the accounting for certain convertible instruments by removing the separation models for convertible debt with a cash conversion feature and for convertible instruments with a beneficial conversion feature. As a result, more convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. Additionally, this update amends the diluted earnings per share calculation for convertible instruments by requiring the use of the if-converted method. The treasury stock method is no longer available. Entities may adopt the requirements of ASU 2020-06 using either a full or modified retrospective approach, and it is effective for public businesses, excluding entities eligible to be smaller reporting companies, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years.

We adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2022 using the modified retrospective method of transition, which resulted in an increase in convertible promissory notes of $379,355, a decrease in additional paid-in capital of $1,013,414 and an increase to retained earnings of $634,059 as of January 1, 2022. See Note 4.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new standard establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability, measured on a discounted basis, on the balance sheet for all leases with terms greater than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for capital and operating leases existing at the date of adoption, with certain practical expedients available. The accounting guidance, which is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2022, has been adopted with no significant financial statement impact.

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, authoritative guidance, if currently adopted, would have a material impact on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.

NOTE 3. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment consisted of the following as of December 31:


	2022		2021
Building	$	875,000	$	875,000
Furniture and equipment		24,987		24,987
		899,987		899,987
Less: accumulated depreciation and amortization		(194,518)		(172,643)
	$	705,469	$	727,344

Depreciation and amortization expense related to property and equipment was $21,875 for both the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Depreciation and amortization are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the accompanying statements of operations.

NOTE 4. NOTES PAYABLE

In April 2020, the Company received $39,500 in payroll protection program loans (“PPP”). These loans provide for certain funding based on previous employment which in part may be forgivable under certain conditions. No payment is due during the deferral period which ends the earlier of the date of SBA forgiveness or ten months after the last day of the covered period. The remaining portion needs to be repaid over two years and carries a 1% annual interest rate. These loans require no collateral nor personal guarantees. The loan was forgiven in its entirety in February 2021 and has been included in other income in the accompanying statement of operations.

Related Party Notes Payable

On December 1, 2021, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the related party to repay the then remaining balance of $231,500 plus $18,370 in accrued interest. Under the terms of the agreement, the total was settled in cash of $125,620 divided into two payments and 2,000,000 shares of Company common stock at a conversion price of $0.062 per share. Cash payments totaling $158,875, were made in 2021, with the remaining principal balance of $57,875 paid in January 2022. Interest expense totaled $78 and $18,590 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Convertible Promissory Notes

We adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1,2022 using the modified retrospective method of transition. This resulted in an increase in convertible promissory notes of $379,355, by eliminating remaining debt discount related to beneficial conversion features on outstanding notes as of January 1, 2022. See Note 2.

On September 3, 2021, the Company entered into a forbearance agreement with one of its lenders. As additional consideration for entering into the forbearance agreement, the Company agreed to issue the lender the number of shares equal to $100,000 on January 15, 2022 at a 25% discount based upon the previous 15-day average closing price. Effective after January 15, 2022, if the Company enters into an agreement with a third-party investor for consideration per share less than the $0.50 fixed price per share of the notes, the Company agrees to amend and restate the notes to reduce the conversion price. On January 20, 2022, the conversion price was reset to $0.025 for the remaining outstanding notes. The terms of the forbearance agreement have been treated as a modification to the existing notes and are being amortized over the remaining term of the notes. Amortization of $80,000 related to the stock consideration has been recorded in 2021 as interest expense.

On March 25, 2022, the Company amended the forbearance agreement. Under the amendment, the maturity dates of the outstanding notes were changed to October 1, 2022. In addition, the Company will issue 8,000,000 shares of its common stock at a fair market value of $0.0357 per share based on the quoted stock price as of the amendment date, 4,000,000 which is in lieu of the discounted shares equal to $100,000 stated in the original agreement. The Company will also make six monthly payments of $30,000. The Company made a good faith payment of $30,000 in February 2022 and its first payment under the amendment in March 2022. The terms of the forbearance agreement have been accounted for as an extinguishment of debt resulting in a loss of $205,600 which has been recorded as other expense in the accompanying statement of operations.

In June 2022, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the above lender to convert the outstanding convertible notes payable of $617,353 and accrued interest of $51,017 into 26,734,801 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.025 per share as dictated by the terms of the notes. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the number of shares of common stock to be issued under the earlier forbearance agreement was reduced to 4,000,000 and recorded as a reduction of $142,800 in the extinguishment of debt. In October 2022, the Company amended its settlement agreement with the lender and issued the lender 4,000,000 shares of common stock and accounted for as an extinguishment of debt resulting in a loss of $100,000, of which $60,000 relates to 6,000,000 shares that are to be issued and are recorded as accrued expense in the Company’s balance sheet at December 31, 2022.

If, upon the one-year anniversary of the effective date of the June 2022 settlement agreement, the lender and its designees have beneficial ownership over the settlement payment shares, and the closing price of the Company’s common stock as reported on the OTC Markets is less than $0.025 per share, then for a period of thirty (30) days after the one-year anniversary, the lender and its designees shall have the right to elect, and the Company shall have the obligation, to issue additional shares to the lender and its designees. If, for a period of two years from the effective date, the Company issues, sells or grants any option to purchase, or sells or otherwise disposes of, or sells or issues any common stock or other securities convertible into, exercisable for, or otherwise entitle any person or entity the right to acquire, shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share less than $0.025 (such lower price a “Dilutive Issuance”), then the price per share used to calculate the settlement payment shares shall be reduced to the lower price. Certain subsequent transactions resulted in a recalculation of the number of shares originally issued as the settlement payment. Additional shares totaling 40,102,156 are to be issued as of December 31, 2022 and have been accounted for as an extinguishment of debt resulting in a loss of $638,000 and recorded as other expense in the accompanying statement of operations and as an accrued expense in the accompanying balance sheet. See Note 11.

Commitments

The Company has entered into a product development with payments totaling approximately $525,000, of which $212,000 has been paid to date. The agreement requires that the remaining payments be made in conjunction with certain development milestones. The Company expects to meet these milestones over the next twelve to eighteen months.

Contingencies

The Company is subject to various loss contingencies and assessments arising in the normal course of the business, some of which relate to litigation, claims, property taxes and sales and use tax or goods and services tax assessments. The Company considers the likelihood of the loss or the incurrence of a liability, as well as its ability to reasonably estimate the amount of loss in determining loss contingencies and assessments. An estimated loss contingency or assessment is accrued when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management regularly evaluates current information available to them to determine whether such accruals should be adjusted. Based on the information presently available, including discussion with counsel and other consultants, management believes that resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed 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, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2022, the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses discussed below.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer and effected by the Board, management, and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that:

pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets.

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures of are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and,

provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of our inherent limitations, our internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management identified the following material weaknesses:

we do not have an Audit Committee – While not being legally obligated to have an Audit Committee, it is the management’s view that such a committee, including a financial expert board member, is an utmost important entity level control of the Company’s financial statements. Currently, the Board of Directors acts in the capacity of the Audit Committee and includes a member that is considered to be independent of management to assist in providing the necessary oversight over management’s activities.

we have not performed a risk assessment and mapped our processes to control objectives.

Table of Contents

we have not implemented comprehensive entity-level internal controls.

we have not implemented adequate system and manual controls; and

we do not have sufficient segregation of duties.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organization of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013). Based on management’s assessment, management concluded that the above material weaknesses have not been remediated and, accordingly, our internal control over financial reporting is not effective as of December 31, 2022.

Remediation of Material Weaknesses

Management understands that in order to remediate the material weaknesses, additional segregation of duties, changes in personnel and technologies are necessary. We will not consider these material weaknesses fully remediated until management has implemented and tested those internal controls and found them to be operating effectively.

This Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to such attestation pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permits us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We implemented no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the year ended December 31, 2022.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our common stock to file initial reports of beneficial ownership and reports of changes in beneficial ownership with the SEC. Such persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms filed by such persons.

Based solely on our review of such forms furnished to us, and written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that all filing requirements applicable to our executive officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 were satisfied.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

To the best of our knowledge, during the past five years, none of the following occurred with respect to a present director (or person nominated to become director), executive officer, founder, promoter or control person: (1) any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; (2) any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); (3) being subject to any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his or her involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; and (4) being found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the SEC or the Commodities Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a corporate code of ethics. We believe our code of ethics is reasonably designed to deter wrongdoing and promote honest and ethical conduct; provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in public reports; comply with applicable laws; ensure prompt internal reporting of code violations; and provide accountability for adherence to the code. To the knowledge of the Company, there have been no reported violations of the Code of Ethics.

Whistleblower Procedures Policy

In accordance with the requirements of Section 301 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the Board of Directors of the Company has adopted a Whistleblower Procedures Policy, stating that all employees of the Company are strongly encouraged to report any evidence of financial irregularities which they may become aware of, including those with respect to internal controls, accounting or auditing

Table of Contents

matters. Under the Whistleblower Procedures Policy, the management of the Company shall promptly and periodically communicate to all employees with access to accounting, payroll and financial information the means by which they may report any such irregularities. In the event an employee is uncomfortable for any reason reporting irregularities to his or her supervisor or other management of the Company, employees may report directly to any member of the Board of Directors of the Company. The identity of any employee reporting under these procedures will be maintained as confidential at the request of the employee,or may be made on an anonymous basis. Notice must be provided to all of the Company’s employees with access to accounting, payroll and financial information in respect of these procedures.

The Company does not have any Committees of the Board

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Director Independence

We are not listed on a major U.S. securities exchange and, therefore, are not subject to the corporate governance requirements of any such exchange, including those related to the independence of directors. Upon our listing on any national securities exchange or any inter-dealer quotation system, we will elect such independent directors as is necessary under the rules of any such securities exchange.

Board Leadership Structure

We currently have three Directors, one of whom is also an executive officer. Our Board has reviewed the Company’s current Board leadership structure. In light of the Company’s size, nature of the Company’s business, regulatory framework under which the Company operates, stockholder base, the Company’s peer group and other relevant factors, the Company has determined that this structure is currently the most appropriate Board leadership structure for our company. Nevertheless, the Board intends to carefully evaluate from time to time whether our current structure should be modified based on what the Board believes is best for the Company and our stockholders.

Board Role in Risk Oversight

Risk is inherent in every business, and how well a business manages risk can ultimately determine its success. We face a number of risks, including strategic risks, enterprise risks, financial risks, and regulatory risks. While our management is responsible for day to day management of various risks we face, the Board, as a whole, is responsible for evaluating our exposure to risk and to satisfy itself that the risk management processes designed and implemented by management are adequate and functioning as designed. The Board reviews and discusses policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management. The Board also has oversight responsibility with respect to the integrity of the Company’s financial reporting process and systems of internal control regarding finance and accounting, as well as its financial statements.

Audit Committee

The Board does not currently have a standing Audit Committee. The full Board performs the principal functions of the Audit Committee. The full Board monitors our financial reporting process and internal control system and reviews and appraises the audit efforts of our independent accountants.

Compensation Committee

At December 31, 2022, the Company had no standing Compensation Committee. The Board establishes overall compensation policies and reviews and approves compensation recommendations by management. On February 1, 2023 the Board established a Compensation Committee, consisting of its independent director, Mr. Robert Hymers.

Nominating Committee

The Board does not currently have a standing Nominating Committee. We do not maintain a policy for considering nominees. Our Bylaws provides that the number of Directors shall be fixed from time to time by the Board, but in no event shall be less than the minimum required by law. The Board of Directors shall be large enough to maintain our required expertise but not too large to function efficiently. Director nominees are recommended, reviewed and approved by the entire Board. The Board believes that this process is appropriate due to the relatively small number of directors on the Board and the opportunity to benefit from a variety of opinions and perspectives in determining director nominees by involving the full Board.

Table of Contents

While the Board is solely responsible for the selection and nomination of directors, the Board may consider nominees recommended by stockholders as it deems appropriate. The Board evaluates each potential nominee in the same manner regardless of the source of the potential nominee’s recommendation. Although we do not have a policy regarding diversity, the Board does take into consideration the value of diversity among Board members in background, experience, education and perspective in considering potential nominees for recommendation to the Board for selection. Stockholders who wish to recommend a nominee should send nominations to our President, Matthew Wolfson, 16561 North 92^nd Street, Suite 101, Scottsdale, AZ 85260, that includes all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for the election of directors. The recommendation must be accompanied by a written consent of the individual to stand for election if nominated by the Board and to serve if elected.

Compensation Consultants

We have not historically relied upon the advice of compensation consultants in determining Named Executive Officer compensation. Instead, the full Board reviews compensation levels and makes adjustments based on their personal knowledge of competition in the marketplace, publicly available information and informal surveys of human resource professionals.

Stockholder Communications

Stockholders who wish to communicate with the Board may do so by addressing their correspondence to the Board at Electromedical Technologies, Inc., Attention: Mathew Wolfson, 16561 North 92^nd Street, Suite 101, Scottsdale, AZ 85260. The Board shall review and respond to all correspondence received, as appropriate.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Mr. Wolfson receives no compensation for serving as the Chairman and a Director of the Company. During the Director’s term, the Company reimburses the Director for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Director in attending any in-person meetings, provided that the Director complies with the generally applicable policies, practices and procedures of the Company for submission of expense reports, receipts or similar documentation of such expenses.
