Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2021 and 2020

 

Note 1 Description of Business

 

Company Overview

 

Mitesco, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) was formed in the state of Delaware on January 18, 2012. On December 9, 2015, we restructured our operations and acquired Newco4pharmacy, LLC, a development stage company which sought to acquire compounding pharmacy businesses. As a part of the restructuring, we completed a “spin out” of our former business line. On April 24, 2020, we changed our name to Mitesco, Inc.

 

During 2020, our operations have focused on establishing medical clinics utilizing nurse practitioners under The Good Clinic name and development and acquisition of telemedicine technology. In March of 2020, we formed a wholly owned subsidiary, The Good Clinic LLC, a Colorado limited liability company for our clinic business.

 

We opened our first The Good Clinic in Minneapolis, Minnesota in the first quarter of 2021.

 

Note 2 - Financial Condition, Going Concern and Management Plans

 

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had cash of $2,756,000, current liabilities of $1,319,000, and has incurred a loss from operations and has generated minimal revenue. The Company’s principal operation is the development and operation of primary care health and wellness clinics operated by nurse practitioners. In addition, the Company develops and deploys software and systems for the healthcare marketplace. The Company intends to a) develop and acquire telemedical technologies, and b) evaluate other healthcare related opportunities both domestically and on an international basis. The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure additional funding to execute its business plan.

 

As a result of these factors, there is substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for one year from the date the financial statements are issued. The Company’s continuance is dependent on raising capital and generating revenues sufficient to sustain operations. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company closed on a $3,000,000 series C Preferred Stock and warrants offering and $1,668,000 restricted common stock offering. In order to continue its expansion plans the Company believes that additional capital will need to be raised and has entered discussions to do so with certain companies. However, as of the date of these consolidated financial statements, no formal agreement exists.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts classified as liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be forced to take any such actions.

 

During March 2020, in response to the COVID-19 crisis, the federal government announced plans to offer loans to small businesses in various forms, including the Payroll Protection Program, or "PPP", established as part of the Corona Virus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) and administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. On April 18, 2020, the Company’s former President and COO completed and submitted an application on behalf of the Company to Bank of America, NA (“Bank of America”) for a PPP loan, which was subsequently approved. On April 25, 2020, the Company entered into an unsecured Promissory Note (the “Note”) with Bank of America for a loan in the original principal amount of approximately $460,000, and the Company received the full amount of the loan proceeds on May 4, 2020.

 

On July 21, 2020, Bank of America notified the Company in writing that it should not have received $440,000 of the loan proceeds disbursed under the Note. The Company investigated the terms of the application and discovered its former President had erroneously represented it was refinancing an Economic Injury Disaster Loan when no such loan had been received. Bank of America requested that the Company remit the funds received back to Bank of America. The Company is currently working with Bank of America on a repayment plan. If we are not successful in negotiating repayment terms, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

 

During management's review of the loan application after the loan had been disbursed to the Company, it was determined that the information provided by its former President and COO in the application was not representative of the Company’s situation. After consulting with legal counsel and conferring with the Board of Directors, the Board of Directors, in executive session, voted to remove the Company’s former President and Chief Operating Officer (“COO”) from its Board of Directors, and all operating roles due to the inaccuracy of the loan application. After that decision, the former President & COO submitted a resignation from all positions with the Company, which was accepted by the Board and management.

 

 

In August 2020, the former President and COO filed a complaint alleging discrimination under certain provisions of the anti-discrimination laws of that state. The Company believes that the action is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself. The Company does not believe it the action will have a material impact on the Company. As of the date of this filing the Company has been advised by the convening judicial organization that it has dismissed this matter, and as such the individual who initiated this action is open to pursue litigation in other venues if they desire.

 

The Company has had some impact on its operations as a result of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, primarily with accessibility to staffing, consultants and in the capital markets, and it is adjusting as needed within its available resources. The Company will continue to assess the effect of the pandemic on its operations. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to impact the Company’s business and operations will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as the ultimate geographic spread of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, the duration and effect of possible business disruptions and the short-term effects and ultimate effectiveness of the travel restrictions, quarantines, social distancing requirements and business closures in the United States and other countries to contain and treat the disease. While the potential economic impact brought by, and the duration of, COVID-19 may be difficult to assess or predict, a widespread pandemic could result in significant disruption of global financial markets, reducing the Company’s ability to access capital, which could in the future negatively affect the Company’s liquidity. In addition, a recession or market correction resulting from the spread of COVID-19 could materially affect the Company’s business and the value of its securities.

 

Note 3 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Principles of Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Mitesco, Inc., and its wholly owned subsidiaries MitescoNA, LLC, The Good Clinic, LLC, and Acelerar Healthcare Holdings, LTD. In addition, we anticipate that we will rely on the operating activities of certain legal entities in which we will not maintain a controlling ownership interest but over which we will have indirect influence and of which we will be considered the primary beneficiary. We expect that these entities will typically be subject to nominee ownership and transfer restriction agreements that effectively transfer the majority of the economic risks and rewards of their ownership to the Company. The Company’s management, restriction and other agreements concerning such nominee-owned entities typically includes both financial terms and protective and participating rights to the entities’ operating, strategic and non-clinical governance decisions which transfer substantial powers over and economic responsibility for these entities to the Company. As such, the Company applies the guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810 – Consolidation (“ASC 810”), to determine when an entity that is insufficiently capitalized or not controlled through its voting interests, referred to as a variable interest entity should be consolidated. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Use of Estimates - The preparation of these financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and related notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment.

 

Cash - The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2,756,000 and $65,000 as of March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively .

 

Property, Plant, and Equipment - Property and equipment is recorded at the lower of cost or estimated net recoverable amount and is depreciated using the straight-line method over its estimated useful life. Property acquired in a business combination is recorded at estimated initial fair value. Property, plant, and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line method based on the lesser of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the lease term based upon the following life expectancy:

 

   

Years

Office equipment

   

3 to 5

Furniture & fixtures

   

3 to 7

Machinery & equipment

   

3 to 10

Leasehold improvements

   

Term of lease

 

In 2020, the Company entered into a lease for a clinic facility in Minneapolis, Minnesota. In connection with the facility, the Company incurred costs to design, engineer, build and install furniture and equipment in the facility. $417,000 was recorded in construction in progress on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2020. The facility was completed, and the Company received its certificate of occupancy, in the first quarter of 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the costs previously recorded as construction in progress were recorded to fixed assets and are being depreciated over their useful lives or lease term as appropriate.

 

 

Revenue Recognition – On January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 605, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605). Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606. The impact of adopting the new revenue standard was not material to our financial statements and there was no adjustment to beginning retained earnings on January 1, 2018.

 

Under Topic 606, revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

 

identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;

identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

determination of the transaction price;

allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

 

Stock-Based Compensation-We recognize the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation cost for stock options is estimated at the grant date based on each option’s fair-value as calculated by the Black-Scholes-Merton (“BSM”) option-pricing model. Share-based compensation arrangements may include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.

 

Equity instruments issued to those other than employees are recognized pursuant to FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This ASU relates to the accounting for non-employee share-based payments. The amendment in this update expands the scope of Topic 718 to include all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquired goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor’s own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The ASU excludes share-based payment awards that relate to: (1) financing to the issuer; or (2) awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to customers as part of a contract accounted for under Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts from Customers. The share-based payments are to be measured at grant-date fair value of the equity instruments that the entity is obligated to issue when the goods or service has been delivered or rendered and all other conditions necessary to earn the right to benefit from the equity instruments have been satisfied. This standard became effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year. We adopted the provisions of this ASU on January 1, 2019. The adoption had no impact on our results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition.

 

Convertible Instruments-The Company reviews the terms of convertible debt and equity instruments to determine whether there are conversion features or embedded derivative instruments including embedded conversion options that are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as a derivative financial instrument. In circumstances where the convertible instrument contains more than one embedded derivative instrument, including conversion options that are required to be bifurcated, the bifurcated derivative instruments are accounted for as a single compound instrument. Also, in connection with the sale of convertible debt and equity instruments, the Company may issue free standing warrants that may, depending on their terms, be accounted for as derivative instrument liabilities, rather than as equity. When convertible debt or equity instruments contain embedded derivative instruments that are to be bifurcated and accounted for separately, the total proceeds allocated to the convertible host instruments are first allocated to the fair value of the bifurcated derivative instrument. The remaining proceeds, if any, are then allocated to the convertible instruments themselves, usually resulting in those instruments being recorded at a discount from their face amount. When the Company issues debt securities, which bear interest at rates that are lower than market rates, the Company recognizes a discount, which is offset against the carrying value of the debt. Such discount from the face value of the debt, together with the stated interest on the instrument, is amortized over the life of the instrument through periodic charges to income. In addition, certain conversion features are recognized as beneficial conversion features to the extent the conversion price as defined in the convertible note is less than the closing stock price on the issuance of the convertible notes.

 

Beneficial Conversion Features and Deemed Dividends-The Company records a deemed dividend on Preferred Stock when, on the date of issuance, the conversion rate is less than the Company’s stock price. The Company also records, when necessary, deemed dividends for the exchange of Preferred Stock for common stock, based on the market price of common stock in excess of the carrying value of the Preferred Stock.

 

 

Derivative Financial Instruments- Derivatives are recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. The conversion features of the convertible notes are embedded derivatives and are separately valued and accounted for on the consolidated balance sheet with changes in fair value recognized during the period of change as a separate component of other income/expense. Fair values for exchange-traded securities and derivatives are based on quoted market prices. The pricing model the Company uses for determining the fair value of its derivatives is the Lattice Model. Valuations derived from this model are subject to ongoing internal and external verification and review. The model uses market-sourced inputs such as interest rates and stock price volatilities. As of March 31, 2021 the Company had retired all derivative instruments.

 

Common Stock Purchase Warrants-The Company accounts for common stock purchase warrants in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 815, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. As is consistent with its handling of stock compensation and embedded derivative instruments, the Company’s cost for stock warrants is estimated at the grant date based on each warrant’s fair-value as calculated by the Black Sholes option-pricing model value method for valuing the impact of the expense associated with these warrants.

 

Stockholders Equity-Shares of common stock issued for other than cash have been assigned amounts equivalent to the fair value of the service or assets received in exchange.

 

Per Share Data-Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus common stock equivalents (if dilutive) related to warrants, options and convertible instruments.

 

Income Taxes- The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, the Company generally considers all expected future events other than possible enactments of changes in the tax laws or rates.

 

Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company has determined that a valuation allowance is needed due to recent taxable net operating losses, the sale of profitable divisions and the limited taxable income in the carry back periods. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes and certain tax loss carryforwards, less any valuation allowance.

 

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions as required in that a position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return is recognized in the consolidated financial statements when it is more likely than not (i.e., a likelihood of more than fifty percent) that the position would be sustained upon examination by tax authorities. A recognized tax position is then measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company does not have any material unrecognized tax benefits. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as components of interest expense and other expense, respectively, in arriving at pretax income or loss. The Company does not have any interest and penalties accrued. The Company is generally no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, and local income tax examinations for the years before 2018.

 

Business Combinations- The Company accounts for business combinations by recognizing the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, contractual contingencies, and contingent consideration at their fair values on the acquisition date. The purchase price allocation process requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets, estimated contingent consideration payments and pre-acquisition contingencies. Examples of critical estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets we have acquired or may acquire in the future include but are not limited to:

 

future expected cash flows from product sales, support agreements, consulting contracts, other customer contracts, and acquired developed technologies and patents; and

 

discount rates utilized in valuation estimates.

 

Unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that may affect the accuracy or validity of such assumptions, estimates or actual results. Additionally, any change in the fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration subsequent to the acquisition date, including changes from events after the acquisition date, such as changes in our estimates of relevant revenue or other targets, will be recognized in earnings in the period of the estimated fair value change. A change in fair value of the acquisition-related contingent consideration or the occurrence of events that cause results to differ from our estimates or assumptions could have a material effect on the consolidated financial position, statements of operations or cash flows in the period of the change in the estimate.

 

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets-Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed would be separately presented in the consolidated balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell and are no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a disposal group classified as held-for-sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the consolidated balance sheet, if material. The Company had no impairment charges.

 

Financial Instruments and Fair Values-The fair value of a financial instrument represents the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based upon relevant market information about the financial instrument. In determining fair value, we use various valuation methodologies and prioritize the use of observable inputs. We assess the inputs used to measure fair value using a three-tier hierarchy based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market:

 

Level 1 – inputs include exchange quoted prices for identical instruments and are the most observable.

 

Level 2 – inputs include brokered and/or quoted prices for similar assets and observable inputs such as interest rates.

 

Level 3 – inputs include data not observable in the market and reflect management judgment about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

 

The use of observable and unobservable inputs and their significance in measuring fair value are reflected in our hierarchy assessment. The carrying amount of cash, prepaid assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. Because cash and cash equivalents are readily liquidated, management classifies these values as Level 1. The fair value of the derivative liabilities approximates their book value as the instruments are short-term in nature and contain market rates of interest. Because there is no ready market or observable transactions, management classifies the derivative liabilities as Level 3.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07 “Improvements to Non-employee Share-Based Payment Accounting”, which simplifies the accounting for share-based payments granted to non-employees for goods and services. Under the ASU, most of the guidance on such payments to non-employees would be aligned with the requirements for share-based payments granted to employees. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this standard will have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued 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)”. This ASU reduces the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible Preferred Stock. As well as amend the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity to reduce form-over-substance-based accounting conclusions. In addition, this ASU improves and amends the related EPS guidance. This standard is effective for us on January 1, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption is either a modified retrospective method or a fully retrospective method of transition. We are currently assessing the impact the new guidance will have on our consolidated financial statements.

 

There are various other updates recently issued, most of which represent technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

 

Note 4 Net Loss Per Share Applicable to Common Shareholders

 

Net Loss per Share Applicable to Common Stockholders 

 

Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted loss per common share is computed similarly to basic loss per common share except that it reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities or other obligations to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

 

The following table sets forth the computation of loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively:

Note 5 Related Party Transactions

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2021:

 

On March 17, 2021, the Company issued 1,000,000 ten-year options with an exercise price of $0.31 to its Chief Financial Officer. These options had a fair value at issuance of $301,910. The Company valued these options using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The options vest as follows: 250,000 options vest 90 days from issuance: 250,000 options vest one year from issuance; and 500,000 options vest based upon the Company’s achieving certain performance targets.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company accrued dividends on its Series X Preferred Stock in the total amount of $16,000. Of this amount, a total of $2,000 was payable to officers and directors, $8,000 was payable to a related party shareholder, and $6,000 was payable to non-related parties.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2020:

 

On February 27, 2020, the Company agreed to issue 1,000,000 ten-year options to its two non-management directors (a total of 2,000,000 options). These options have a fair value at issuance of $39,000 per director (a total of $78,000), an exercise price of $0.05 per share, and vest over a three-year period. The Company valued these options using the Black-Scholes valuation model. On December 14, 2020, the exercise price of these options was rest to $0.03 per share reflecting the market price at the time (see note 10).

 

 

On March 2, 2020, the Company agreed to issue 1,500,000 ten-year options to each of its Chief Executive Officer, its President, and a consultant (a total of 4,500,000 options). These options had a total fair value at issuance of $176,000, an exercise price of $0.05 per share, and vest over a three-year period. The Company valued these options using the Black-Scholes valuation model. Julie R. Smith, the Company’s former President, Chief Operating Officer, and a Board member resigned effective June 30, 2020; the 1,500,000 options that the Company agreed to issue to Ms. Smith were cancelled; a total of $1,632 was charged to operations representing the fair value of these options through Ms. Smith’s resignation date. On December 14, 2020, the exercise price of the 1,500,000 options granted to each of its Chief Executive Officer and a consultant was changed to $0.03 per share reflecting the market price at the time (see Note 9).

 

Note 6 - Right to Use Assets and Lease Liabilities Operating Leases

 

The Company has an operating lease for its clinic with a remaining lease term of approximately 7.5 years. The Company’s lease expense was entirely comprised of operating leases. Lease expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 amounted to $16,000 and $0, respectively. The Company’s ROU asset amortization for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was $6,000 and $0, respectively.

Note 8 Derivative Liabilities

 

Certain of the Company’s convertible notes and warrants contain features that create derivative liabilities. The pricing model the Company uses for determining fair value of its derivatives is the Lattice Model. Valuations derived from this model are subject to ongoing internal and external verification and review. The model uses market-sourced inputs such as interest rates and stock price volatilities. Selection of these inputs involves management’s judgment and may impact net income. The derivative components of these notes are valued at issuance, at conversion, at restructure, and at each period end.

Other

 

On May 4, 2020, we received a loan in the amount of $460,406 from the United States Small Business Administration under the Payroll Protection Program. Subsequent to June 30, 2020, we determined that errors had been made in the application submitted to obtain the loan. On July 21, 2020, Bank of America notified the Company in writing that it should not have received $440,000 of the loan proceeds, representing an amount for the refinancing of an Economic Injury Disaster Loan which we did receive. Bank of America has requested that we remit such funds back to Bank of America. We are presently attempting to negotiate repayment of the loan. If we are not successful in negotiating repayment terms, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

 

During management's review of the Company’s recent PPP loan application after the loan had been disbursed to the Company, it was determined that the information provided by Ms. Julie R. Smith, the Company’s former President and COO, was not representative of the Company’s situation. After consulting with legal counsel, the Board of Directors voted to remove Ms. Smith from its Board of Directors, and all other capacities due to the misstatements she made in the loan application. Subsequent to that decision, effective July 1, 2020, Ms. Smith submitted a resignation from all positions with the Company, which was accepted by the Board and management. Ms. Smith subsequently retained counsel and has indicated her intent to file an administrative charge of discrimination in Colorado under certain provisions of the anti-discrimination laws of that state.

 

On August 18, 2020, the Company received formal notice that a complaint has been filed with the Colorado Civil Rights Division by Ms. Smith naming the Company as the Respondent. The Company believes the claims are frivolous and intends to vigorously defend against the allegations. As of the date of this filing the Company has been advised that the Colorado Civil Rights Division has dismissed this matter effective March 1, 2021. Ms. Smith requested a “Right-to-Sue” letter, which she received, giving her a right to sue in District Court for 90 days from the date of the dismissed action.

 

Note 12 Subsequent Events

 

On April 12, 2021, the Board of Directors appointed Ingrid Jenny Lindstrom its Chief Legal Officer.

 

On April 12, 2021, the Company issued 1,000,000 ten-year options with an exercise price of $0.31 to its Chief Legal Officer. These options had a fair value at issuance of $301,480. The Company valued these options using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The options vest as follows: 250,000 options vest 90 days from issuance: 250,000 options vest one year from issuance; and 500,000 options vest based upon the Company’s achieving certain performance targets.

 

On April 20, 2021, the Company issued 1,962 shares of common stock due to the underwriters of the 2021 Private Placement.

 

On May 4, 2021, the Company issued 845,386 shares of common stock pursuant to the conversion of 201,282 shares Series C Preferred Stock.

 

On May 13, 2021, the Company announced that it had appointed Mr. Tom Brodmerkel to the position of Chairman of the Board of Directors. Mr. Ronald Riewold, the Company’s former Chairman, has asked to retire from his Board position when a replacement is identified.  Mr. Riewold will continue as a strategic advisor to the Company.

 

 

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein.

 

We are working to open primary care clinics around the US that are in residential centers and leverage the expertise, training and license of Nurse Practitioners. We are focusing on wellness as a core of the practice. Mitesco’s mission is to increase convenience and access to care, improve the quality of care, and reduce its cost. Technology is a key part to our approach to deliver on these three goals. We recognize the essential nature of the clinician client relationship and its importance to achieving these superior outcomes. Our view is that technology must enhance these human interactions, not operate independently. As such, we are seeking innovative technologies that enable both consumers and clinicians to achieve more convenient and better outcomes with greater efficiency.

 

We have opened our flagship primary care clinic “The Good Clinic” in North East Minneapolis, Minnesota. We plan to open an additional 5 to 7 clinics in the Twin Cities area of Minnesota and then continue expansion in the Denver, Colorado area. We target to open clinics in residential concentrations of population to enhance the convenience, especially timely due to the changes in community travel patterns resulting from the pandemic. Our clinicians use both telehealth (virtual) and in-person visits to treat and coach the clients along their journey to better health and quality of life. Our clinics are led by Nurse Practitioners that use their license, extensive training, expertise and empathy to help people remain stable or improve their health. We emphasize wellness, beginning with a client‘s co-developed plan that identifies from where a person is starting and constructs a plan for how they can achieve their goals. The practice uses an integrated health approach that includes an assessment of both the individual’s behavioral and physical health and combines this with their activation level and their goals. The clinic offers wellness coaching, behavioral health care, episodic care, dermatologic services, and supplements. We seek to care for the whole person’s needs.

 

Like the first clinic, we seek to locate clinics convenient to residential centers. In pursuit of this approach, we intend to continue to expand our relationship with Lennar Corporation and other developers. Already, our clinic is being viewed as an amenity for the high-rise development in which we are located. We plan to mirror this approach within the two Lennar locations with which we have signed letters of intent to build clinics in these residential developments in Denver.

 

Additionally, we have implemented a corporate structure that we believe allows us to expand into international markets. We have a wholly owned subsidiary in Dublin, Ireland, Acelerar Healthcare Holdings, Ltd. We intend to use this location as a base for European operations. In the European community the investment in healthcare technology has been significant. In many cases, even more robust than in the North American markets. We believe that as a result of expected low economic growth in the European community, several technology businesses based there may become our targets for acquisition at attractive valuations. We believe that these businesses may benefit from the larger markets found in North America and elsewhere in the world.

 

We also see the European community as an opportunity for capital as we expand our business. The interest rates in this area of the world are currently very low or even at zero. As such, raising funds in the European market may prove attractive when compared to local alternatives. Further, there are equity and debt markets based in Europe that may provide liquidity to our investors, should we be able to list and trade our financial instruments in those marketplaces. We may seek a dual listing for our common stock to trade there. We believe this avenue may increase both the size and liquidity of the shareholder base.

 

Results of Operations

 

The following period-to-period comparisons of our financial results are not necessarily indicative of results for the current period of any future periods. Further, as a result of any acquisitions of other businesses, and any additional pharmacy acquisitions or other such transactions we may pursue, we may experience large expenditures specific to the transactions that are not incident to our operations.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

(a)         Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s management has identified what it believes are material weaknesses in the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures and concluded that we did not have effective disclosure controls and procedures.

 

The deficiencies in our disclosure controls and procedures included (i) lack of segregation of duties and (ii) lack of sufficient resources to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits to the SEC are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (iii) lack of formal Control procedures related to the approval of related party transactions.

 

The Company intends to take corrective action to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company pursuant to the reports that the Company files or submits to the SEC is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

(b)         Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during our first quarter ended March 31, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

 

PART II

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

On May 4, 2020, we received a loan in the amount of $460,406 from the United States Small Business Administration under the Payroll Protection Program. Subsequent to June 30, 2020, we determined that errors had been made in the application submitted to obtain the loan. On July 21, 2020, Bank of America notified the Company in writing that it should not have received $440,000 of the loan proceeds, representing an amount for the refinancing of an Economic Injury Disaster Loan which we did receive. Bank of America has requested that we remit such funds back to Bank of America. We are presently attempting to negotiate repayment of the loan. If we are not successful in negotiating repayment terms, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

 

During management's review of the Company’s recent PPP loan application after the loan had been disbursed to the Company, it was determined that the information provided by Ms. Julie R. Smith, the Company’s former President and COO, was not representative of the Company’s situation. After consulting with legal counsel, the Board of Directors voted to remove Ms. Smith from its Board of Directors, and all other capacities due to the misstatements she made in the loan application. Subsequent to that decision, effective July 1, 2020, Ms. Smith submitted a resignation from all positions with the Company, which was accepted by the Board and management. Ms. Smith subsequently retained counsel and indicated her intent to file an administrative charge of discrimination in Colorado under certain provisions of the anti-discrimination laws of that state.

 

On August 18, 2020, the Company received formal notice that a complaint has been filed with the Colorado Civil Rights Division by Ms. Smith naming the Company as the Respondent. The Company believes the claims are frivolous and intends to vigorously defend against the allegations. As of the date of this filing, we have been advised that the Colorado Civil Rights Division has dismissed this matter effective March 1, 2021. Ms. Smith requested a “Right-to-Sue” letter, which she received, giving her a right to sue in District Court for 90 days from the date of the dismissed action.

 

On May 4, 2021, Mitesco, Inc. was served with a Statement of Nature of Dispute, Claims and Issues to be Arbitrated in which Claimant TerraNova Capital Equities, Inc. (TerraNova) makes claims related to alleged breach of an agreement between the Parties dated August 17, 2020.  TerraNova claims damages in the amount of $385,000.  Mitesco, Inc. intends to vigorously defend against the claims.  Prior to initiating the claims, TerraNova had offered to settle the dispute for an amount of $30,000.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

Special Notice Regarding the Worldwide Covid-19 Crisis

 

The world economy is facing significant uncertainties as a result of the worldwide COVID-19 crisis. While we are a small company and have a limited workforce, it is likely we will face increased risk in the case that our financing needs are delayed; our acquisition targets face liquidity issues; or if our professional relationships are challenged from limited staff availability or access. We cannot predict with any certainty whether and to what degree the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and reactions thereto will continue and expect to face difficulty in developing our business and building our planned clinics. It is not possible for us to accurately predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results of the outbreak and its effects on our business, results of operations or financial condition at this time, but such effects may be material. The COVID-19 pandemic may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks identified elsewhere in this section.

 

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk You should consider carefully the following risks, together with all the other information in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto. If any of the following risks actually materializes, our operating results, financial condition and liquidity could be materially adversely affected. As a result, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you could lose part or all of your investment. The following information updates, and should be read in conjunction with, the information disclosed in Part I, Item1A, Risk Factors, contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 25, 2021 . Except as disclosed below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 25, 2021 .

 

 

There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern as a result of our limited operating history, history of losses and financial resources, and if we are unable to generate significant revenue or secure financing, we may be required to cease or curtail our operations.

 

We have a long history of losses and incurred net losses of approximately $2.9 million and $3.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively and net losses of approximately $2.4 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We have nominal revenues from our operations. The Report of our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm issued in connection with our audited financial statements for the calendar year ended December 31, 2020 expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, due to the fact that we have recurring operating losses and our lack of liquidity and working capital. The Company’s continuance is dependent on raising capital and generating revenues sufficient to sustain operations. We have not generated revenues from our present business plan. If we generate revenue more slowly than we anticipate, or if our operating expenses are higher than we expect, we may not be able to pay our operating expenses or achieve profitability and our financial condition could suffer. Whether we can achieve cash flow levels sufficient to support our operations cannot be accurately predicted. Unless such cash flow levels are achieved, we will need to borrow additional funds or sell debt or equity securities, or some combination thereof, to obtain funding for our operations. Such additional funding may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.

 

The issuance of additional shares of our common stock, convertible notes, convertible Preferred Stock and other convertible securities may dilute the percentage ownership of the then-existing stockholders and may make it more difficult to raise additional equity capital.

 

As of March 22, 2021, there are outstanding options, warrants to purchase 23,567,879 and 0 shares of common stock, respectively. In addition, we have outstanding Series C Preferred Stock that converts into 12,600,000 shares of common stock, notes that convert into 54,127 shares of common stock, and dividends on the Preferred X stock is convertible into an additional 32,477 shares of common stock. The exercise of such options and warrants and conversion of convertible securities would dilute the then-existing stockholders’ percentage ownership of our stock, and any sales in the public market of common stock underlying such securities could adversely affect prevailing market prices for the common stock. Moreover, the terms upon which we would be able to obtain additional equity capital could be adversely affected because the holders of our options and warrants can be expected to exercise them at a time when we would, in all likelihood, be able to obtain any needed capital on terms more favorable to us than those provided by such securities.

 

We may become involved in legal proceedings that could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

By operating in the health care industry, we will face an inherent business risk of exposure to personal injury claims. We plan to obtain liability insurance in the future; however, we do not have liability insurance coverage to protect us from such claims. A successful personally liability claim, or series of claims brought against us, in excess of our insurance coverage, would negatively impact our financial condition.

 

From time to time and in the ordinary course of our business, we and certain of our subsidiaries may become involved in various legal proceedings and claims, including for example, employment disputes and litigation; client disputes and litigation alleging solution and implementation defects, personal injury, intellectual property infringement, violations of law and breaches of contract and warranties; and other third party disputes and litigation alleging personal injury, intellectual property infringement, violations of law, and breaches of contracts and warranties.

 

During March 2020, in response to the COVID-19 crisis, the federal government announced plans to offer loans to small businesses in various forms, including the Payroll Protection Program, or "PPP", established as part of the Corona Virus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) and administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration. On April 18, 2020, the Company’s former President and COO completed and submitted an application on behalf of the Company to Bank of America, NA (“Bank of America”) for a PPP loan, which was subsequently approved. On April 25, 2020 the Company entered into an unsecured Promissory Note (the “Note”) with Bank of America for a loan in the original principal amount of $460,000, and the Company received the full amount of the loan proceeds on May 4, 2020.

 

On July 21, 2020, Bank of America notified the Company in writing that it should not have received $440,000 of the loan proceeds disbursed under the Note. The Company investigated the terms of the application and discovered its former President had erroneously represented it was refinancing an Economic Injury Disaster Loan when no such loan had been received. Bank of America has requested that the Company remit the funds received back to Bank of America. The Company is attempting to negotiate a payment plan with Bank of America plan. If we are not successful in negotiating repayment terms, it could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

 

 

During management's review of the Company’s recent PPP loan application after the loan had been disbursed to the Company, it was determined that the information provided by Ms. Julie R. Smith, the Company’s former President and COO, was not accurate. After consulting with legal counsel, the Board of Directors voted to remove Ms. Smith from its Board of Directors, and all other capacities due to the misstatements she made in the loan application. Subsequent to that decision, effective July 1, 2020, Ms. Smith submitted a resignation from all positions with the Company, which was accepted by the Board and management. Ms. Smith subsequently retained counsel and has indicated her intent to file an administrative charge of discrimination in Colorado under certain provisions of the anti-discrimination laws of that state. On August 18, 2020, the Company received formal notice that a complaint has been filed with the Colorado Civil Rights Division by Ms. Smith naming the Company as the Respondent. The Company believes the claims are frivolous and intends to vigorously defend against the allegations. As of the date of this filing the Company has been advised that the Colorado Civil Rights Division has dismissed this matter effective March 1, 2021. Ms. Smith requested a “Right-to-Sue” letter, which she received, giving her a right to sue in District Court for 90 days from the date of the dismissed action.

 

On May 4, 2021, we were served with a Statement of Nature of Dispute, Claims and Issues to be Arbitrated in which Claimant TerraNova makes claims related to alleged breach of an agreement between the Parties dated August 17, 2020.  TerraNova claims damages in the amount of $385,000.  Although we intend to vigorously defend against the claims, there can be no assurance that we will be successful. 

 

All such legal proceedings are inherently unpredictable and, regardless of the merits of the claims, litigation may be expensive, time-consuming and disruptive to our operations and distracting to management. If resolved against us, such legal proceedings could result in excessive verdicts, injunctive relief or other equitable relief that may affect how we operate our business. Similarly, if we settle such legal proceedings, it may affect how we operate our business. Future court decisions, alternative dispute resolution awards, business expansion or legislative activity may increase our exposure to litigation and regulatory investigations. In some cases, substantial non-economic remedies or punitive damages may be sought. Although we maintain liability insurance coverage, there can be no assurance that such coverage will cover any particular verdict, judgment or settlement that may be entered against us, that such coverage will prove to be adequate or that such coverage will continue to remain available on acceptable terms, if at all. If we incur liability that exceeds our insurance coverage or that is not within the scope of the coverage in legal proceedings brought against us, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

 

The terms of our outstanding Series C Preferred Stock may limit our ability to raise additional equity capital or pursue acquisitions, which may impact funding of our ongoing operations and cause significant dilution to existing stockholders.

 

On March 25, 2021, we entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with four institutional  pursuant to which the Company sold to the Investors in a private placement an aggregate of 3,000,000 units (the “Units” and each a “Unit”) with a purchase price of $1.00 per Unit, with each Unit consisting of (a) one share of a newly formed Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Series C Preferred Stock”), (b) one warrant (the “Series A Warrants”) to purchase 2.1 shares of the Company’s common stock, at a purchase price of $0.50 per whole share of common stock, and (c) one warrant (the “Series B Warrants”) to purchase 2.1 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $0.75 per whole share. The aggregate gross proceeds to the Company were $3,000,000 and the number of shares of Common Stock initially issuable upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Stock is 12,600,000 shares of Common stock and the aggregate number of shares of common stock initially issuable upon exercise of the warrants is 12,600,000 shares of Common Stock.

 

Holders of the Series C Preferred Stock were provided  price protections for the $0.25 conversion price (the “Conversion Price”), pursuant to which, in the event the company issues or sells any securities, including options or convertible securities, or amends outstanding securities, at an effective price, with an exercise price or at a conversion price less than the Conversion Price, then the Conversion Price shall be reduced to such lower price, which shall not apply to any Exempt Issuance (as defined in the Certificate of Designations of the Series C Preferred Stock (the “COD”)). Further, holders of the Series C Preferred Stock shall have the right to participate in any offering by the Company of its Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in an amount equal to an aggregate of 30% of the financing on the same terms, conditions and price provided to investors in such an offering, such right shall expire on the 15 month anniversary of the issuance date of the Series C Preferred Stock by the Company and shall not apply to any Exempt Issuance or a public offering.
