NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

Description of Operations

Sharing Services Global Corporation and subsidiaries (“Sharing Services,” “we,” or the “Company”) aim to build shareholder value by developing or acquiring businesses that augment the Company’s product and services portfolio, business competencies, and geographic reach.

The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada in April 2015.

Health and Wellness Products - The Company’s subsidiaries operating in the health and wellness products industry, which accounted for substantially all the Company’s consolidated net sales during the periods included in this Quarterly Report, market their products primarily through an independent sales force, using a direct selling business model under the proprietary brand “The Happy Co.” Currently, The Happy Co.^TM markets and distributes its health and wellness products primarily in the United States, Canada, the Republic of Korea, and other countries in the Asia Pacific region. In addition, certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries market its health and wellness products on a “not-for-resale” basis to consumers in other countries outside the U.S.

Subscription-Based Travel Services - Through its subsidiary, Hapi Travel Destinations, the Company is preparing to launch a subscription-based travel services business under the proprietary brand “Hapi Travel.” The Hapi Travel^TM services are designed to offer the opportunity to travel to destinations in the U.S. and abroad to people of all ages, demographics, and economic backgrounds. Hapi Travel^TM will also provide entrepreneurial opportunities to its subscribers by capitalizing on both the direct selling model and the retail travel business model.

Company-Owned and Franchised Destination Cafes – Sharing Services recently entered into a Letter of Intent (the “LOI”) to acquire the exclusive franchise rights in North America to the brand “Hapi Café” from Hapi Café, Inc., a company affiliated with Heng Fai Ambrose Chan, a Director of the Company, subject to formalization of a Master Franchise Agreement. Under the proposed terms, Sharing Services, directly or through its subsidiaries, will operate no less than five (5) corporate-owned stores and can offer to the public sub-franchise rights to own and operate other stores, subject to the terms and conditions contained in the LOI and the ultimate Master Franchise Agreement. Each corporate-owned or franchised Hapi Café^TM store will offer to customers and Brand Partners seeking a healthier lifestyle: (a) a selection of functional and healthy food and beverages, (b) a pleasant workspace with free Wi-Fi service, (c) extensive physical fitness, nutrition management and personal workout print and video content, and (d) our Hapi Travel^TM subsidiary’s proprietary travel services.

Targeted Ownership Interests – Directly or through its subsidiaries, the Company from time to time will invest in emerging businesses, using a combination of debt and equity financing, in efforts to leverage the Company’s resources and business competencies and to participate in these businesses’ growth. As part of the Company’s commitment to these emerging businesses’ success, the Company, directly or through its subsidiaries, also offers non-traditional inventory financing, equity or debt financing, order fulfillment and logistic, CRM “Back Office” solutions, and other success-critical services to these businesses.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted as permitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022. Unless so stated, the disclosures in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not repeal the disclosures in our consolidated financial statements for year ended March 31, 2022.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the use of judgment and requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities, if any. Matters that require the use of estimates and assumptions include: the recoverability of notes and accounts receivable, the valuation of inventory, the useful lives of fixed assets, the assessment of long-lived assets for impairment, the nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations resulting from contracts with customers, allocation of the transaction price to multiple performance obligations in a sales transaction, the measurement and recognition of right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities, the valuation of stock-based compensation awards, the measurement and recognition of uncertain tax positions, and the valuation of loss contingencies, if any. Actual results may differ from these estimates in amounts that may be material to our consolidated financial statements. We believe that the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements are reasonable.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents include recent customer remittances deposited with our merchant processors at the balance sheet date, which generally settle within 24 to 72 hours. As of June 30, 2022, and March 31, 2022, cash and cash equivalents included cash held by our merchant processors of $1.2 million and $3.3 million, respectively, including $1.1 million and $3.0 million, respectively held by one merchant processor. In addition, as of June 30, 2022, and March 31, 2022, cash and cash equivalents held in bank accounts in foreign countries in the ordinary course of business were $1.0 million and $1.4 million, respectively. Amounts held by our merchant processor or held in bank accounts located in foreign countries are generally not insured by any federal agency.

Notes Receivable, net

At June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, Notes receivable were $539,623 and $601,520, before allowance for impairment losses of $539,623 and $601,520, respectively.

Inventory

Inventory consists of finished goods and promotional materials and are stated at the lower of cost, determined using the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method, or net realizable value. The Company periodically assesses its inventory levels when compared to current and anticipated sales levels. As of June 30, 2022, and March 31, 2022,the allowance for obsolete inventory was $108,055 and 108,055, respectively, in connection with health and wellness product that is damaged, expired or otherwise in excess of forecasted outputs, based on our current and anticipated sales levels. The Company reports its provisions for inventory losses in cost of goods sold in its consolidated statements of operations.

Note Payable

In May 2020, the Company was granted a loan (the “PPP Loan”) by a commercial bank in the amount of $1.0 million, pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program features of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act of 2020 (the “CARES Act”). At March 31, 2021, loan principal in the amount of $1.0 million was outstanding. The Company’s borrowings under the PPP Loan were eligible for loan forgiveness under the provisions of the CARES Act. In June 2021, the Company was formally notified by the lender that the Company’s obligations under the loan have been forgiven effective May 25, 2021. The loan forgiveness applies to all principal and interest accrued through the loan forgiveness effective date. The Company recognized a gain on extinguishment of debt of $1.0 million in connection with such loan forgiveness.

On June 15, 2022, Linden Real Estate Holdings, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, American Pacific Bancorp, Inc. (“APB”), and the Company entered into a Loan Agreement pursuant to which APB loaned the Company approximately $5.7 million. The loan bears interest at the annual rate of 8%, matures on June 1, 2024, and is secured by a first mortgage interest on the Company’s Lindon, Utah office building. In connection with this loan, the Company received net proceeds of $5,522,829 from APB on June 17, 2022. APB is a subsidiary of DSS, Inc. Heng Fai Ambrose Chan, and Frank D. Heuszel, each a Director of the Company, also serve on the Board of Directors of APB. Monthly payments of principal and interest in the amount of $43,897 are due beginning July 1, 2022 and are payable on the same date of each month thereafter.

Foreign Currency Translation

Prior to April 1, 2021, substantially all the Company’s consolidated net sales were denominated in U.S. dollars. As part of our growth initiatives, we are in the process of expanding operations outside the United States. The functional currency of each of our foreign operations is generally the respective local currency. Balance sheet accounts are translated into U.S. dollars (our reporting currency) at the rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date, while the results of operations and cash flows are generally translated using average exchange rates for the periods presented. Individual material transactions, if any, are translated using the actual rate of exchange on the transaction date. The resulting translation adjustments are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company’s comprehensive loss was comprised of currency translation adjustments and net loss. Prior to April 1, 2021, the only component of the Company’s comprehensive income (loss) was its net earnings (loss).

Revenue Recognition

As of June 30, 2022, and March 31, 2022, deferred sales revenue associated with product invoiced but not received by customers at the balance sheet date was $195,282 and $344,071, respectively. In addition, as of June 30, 2022, and March 31, 2022, deferred sales revenue associated with our unfulfilled performance obligations for services offered on a subscription basis was $65,318, and $70,968, and deferred sales revenue associated with our performance obligations for customers’ right of return was $63,046 and $63,890, and deferred revenues associated with customer loyalty points was $81,980 and $68,287, respectively. Deferred sales revenue is expected to be recognized over one year.

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, no individual customer, or affiliated group of customers, represented 10% or more of our consolidated net sales, and approximately 63% of our net sales were to customers (including 37% to recurring customers, which we refer to as “SmartShip” sales, and approximately 26% to new customers) and approximately 37% of our net sales were to our independent distributors. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, no individual customer, or affiliated group of customers, represents 10% or more of our consolidated net sales, and approximately 70% of our net sales were to customers (including 31% to recurring customers and approximately 39% to new customers) and approximately 30% of our net sales were to our independent distributors. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, approximately 93% and 89%, respectively, of our consolidated net sales were to our customers and/or independent distributors located in the United States. No other country accounted for 10% or more of our consolidated net sales.

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, substantially all our consolidated net sales are from our health and wellness products (including approximately 70% from the sale of Nutraceutical products, 20% from the sale of coffee and other functional beverages, 9% from the sale of weight management products, and approximately 1% from the sale of all other health and wellness products). During the three months ended June 30, 2021, substantially all our consolidated net sales are from our health and wellness products (including approximately 42% from the sale of Nutraceutical products, 27% from the sale of coffee and other functional beverages, 12% from the sale of weight management products, and approximately 19% from the sale of all other health and wellness products). 

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, approximately 94% of our consolidated product purchases were from a third-party manufacturer based in the U.S. During the three months ended June 30, 2021, approximately 49% of our consolidated product purchases were from a third-party manufacturer based in the U.S., while 51% of our product purchases were from a related-party supplier located in the Republic of Korea.

Sales Commissions

The Company recognizes sales commission expense, when incurred, in accordance with GAAP. During the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, sales commission expense, which is included in selling and marketing expenses in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, was $2.4 million and $5.0 million, respectively.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards - Recently Adopted

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740) – Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”). ASU 2019-12, among other things, (a) eliminates the exception to the incremental approach for intra-period tax allocation when there is a loss from continuing operations and income (or a gain) from other items, (b) eliminates the exception to the general methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period when the year-to-date loss exceeds the anticipated loss for the year, (c) requires than an entity recognize a franchise tax (or a similar tax) that is partially based on income as an income-based tax and account for any incremental amount incurred as a non-income-based tax, and (d) requires than an entity reflect the effect of an enacted change in tax laws or rates in the annual effective tax rate computation for the interim period that includes the enactment date. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 effective April 1, 2021, and adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards - Pending Adoption

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (ASU 2020-06), which simplifies the accounting for certain convertible instruments. Among other things, under ASU 2020-06, the embedded conversion features no longer must be separated from the host contract for convertible instruments with conversion features not required to be accounted for as derivatives, or that do not result in substantial premiums accounted for as paid-in capital. ASU 2020-06 also eliminates the use of the treasury stock method when calculating the impact of convertible instruments on diluted Earnings per Share. For the Company, the provisions of ASU 2020-06 are effective for its fiscal quarter beginning on April 1, 2024. Early adoption is permitted, subject to certain limitations. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of adoption on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 – LOSS PER SHARE

We calculate basic earnings (loss) per share by dividing net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated similarly but reflects the potential impact of shares issuable upon the conversion or exercise of outstanding convertible preferred stock, convertible notes payable, stock warrants and other commitments to issue common stock, except where the impact would be anti-dilutive.

The calculation of diluted earnings per share also reflects an adjustment to net earnings for the potential reduction to a reporting period’s interest expense, net of applicable income tax, which would result if the Company’s convertible notes payable were converted at the beginning of such reporting period.

The following table sets forth the computations of basic and diluted loss per share:

SCHEDULE OF COMPUTATIONS OF BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS PER SHARE

The following potentially dilutive securities and instruments were outstanding as of June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, but excluded from the table above:

SCHEDULE OF POTENTIALLY DILUTIVE INSTRUMENTS OUTSTANDING

The preceding table does not include 1,875,000 and 8,750,000 stock warrants held by employees which are not vested (or exercisable) at June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, respectively.

NOTE 4 – INVENTORY, NET

Inventory consists primarily of finished goods. The Company provides an allowance for any slow-moving or obsolete inventory. As of June 30, 2022, and March 31, 2022, inventory consists of the following:

 SCHEDULE OF INVENTORY

NOTE 5 – OTHER CURRENT ASSETS, NET

Other current assets consist of the following:

 SCHEDULE OF OTHER CURRENT ASSETS

Prepaid consulting fees represent the fair value on the grant date of stock warrants issued to DSS in January 2022 for consulting services to be rendered over a year from the issue date (see Note 12 – Related Party Transactions for more information). Prepaid insurance and other operational expenses primarily consist of payments for goods and services (such as freight, trade show expenses and insurance premiums) which are expected to be realized in the next operating cycle. Right to recover asset is associated with our customers’ right of return and is expected to be realized in one year or less. As of both June 30, 2022, and March 31, 2022, the provision for losses in connection with certain inventory-related deposits for which recoverability is less than certain was $179,765.

NOTE 6 – INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED ENTITIES, NET

In September 2021, the Company, Stemtech Corporation (“Stemtech”) and Globe Net Wireless Corp. (“GNTW”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) pursuant to which the Company invested $1.4 million in Stemtech in exchange for: (a) a Convertible Promissory Note in the amount of $1.4 million in favor of the Company (the “Convertible Note”) and (b) a detachable Warrant to purchase shares GNTW common stock (the “GNTW Warrant”). Stemtech is a subsidiary of GNTW. As an inducement to enter into the SPA, GNTW agreed to pay to the Company an origination fee of $500,000, payable in shares of GNTW’s common stock. The Convertible Note matures on September 9, 2024, bears interest at the annual rate of 10%, and is convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares of GNTW’s common stock at a conversion rate calculated based on the closing price per share of GNTW’s common stock during the 30-day period ended September 19, 2021. The GNTW Warrant expires on September 13, 2024 and conveys the right to purchase up to 1.4 million shares of GNTW’s common stock at a purchase price calculated based on the closing price per share of GTNW’s common stock during the 10-day period ended September 13, 2021. In September 2021, GNTW issued to the Company 154,173 shares of its common stock, or less than 1% of the shares of GNTW then issued and outstanding, in payment of the origination fee. In November 2021, Globe Net Wireless Corp. changed its corporate name to Stemtech Corporation. In connection therewith, the investee’s common stock is now traded under the symbol “STEK”.

The Company carries its investment in the Convertible Note, the GNTW Warrant and the shares of GNTW common stock at fair value in accordance with GAAP. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized unrealized gains, before income tax, of $4,865,354 in connection with its investment in the Convertible Note, the GNTW Warrant and the shares of GNTW common stock.

In September 2021, the Company entered into a Membership Unit Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the Company acquired a 30.75% equity interest in MojiLife, LLC, a limited liability company organized in the State of Utah, in exchange for $1,537,000. MojiLife is an emerging growth distributor of technology-based consumer products for the home and car. MojiLife’s products include esthetically attractive, cordless scent diffusers for the home or for the car, as well as proprietary home cleaning products and accessories.

On a quarterly basis, the Company evaluates the recoverability of its investments and reviews current economic trends to determine the adequacy of its allowance for impairment losses based on each investee financial performance data and other relevant information. An estimate for impairment losses is recognized when recovery in full of the Company’s investment is no longer probable. Investment balances are written off against the allowance after the potential for recovery is considered remote.

Investment in unconsolidated entities consists of the following:

NOTE 9 - CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE, RELATED PARTIES

Convertible notes payable consists of the following:

SCHEDULE OF CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

The Company’s convertible notes are convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at the conversion prices shown above.

In October 2017, the Company issued a Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $50,000 (the “Note”) to HWH International, Inc. (“HWH” or the “Holder”). HWH is affiliated with Heng Fai Ambrose Chan, who in April 2020 became a Director of the Company. The Note is convertible into 333,333 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. Concurrent with issuance of the Note, the Company issued to HWH a detachable warrant to purchase up to an additional 333,333 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at an exercise price of $0.15 per share. Under the terms of the Note and the detachable stock warrant, the Holder is entitled to certain financing rights. If the Company enters into more favorable transactions with a third-party investor, it must notify the Holder and may have to amend and restate the Note and the detachable stock warrant to be identical. On August 9, 2022, HWH and the Company executed an agreement to settle the Note and cancel the related stock warrant for $78,636, which amount represents the principal plus accrued interest. The Company made the payment to HWH on August 9, 2022.

On April 5, 2021, the Company and Decentralized Sharing Systems, Inc. (“DSSI”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which the Company issued: (a) a Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $30.0 million (the “Note”) in favor of DSSI, and (b) a detachable Warrant to purchase up to 150,000,000 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, at $0.22 per share, and DSSI loaned to the Company $30.0 million. DSSI, is a subsidiary of DSS, Inc. (formerly Document Security Systems, Inc., “DSS”), and, together with DSS, is a major shareholder of the Company. Under the terms of the loan, the Company agreed to pay to DSSI a loan Origination Fee of $3.0 million, payable in shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, at the rate of $0.20 per share. The Note bore interest at the annual rate of 8%, with a maturity date of April 5, 2024, subject to certain accelerated provisions upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, as was defined in the Note. At any time during the term of the Note, all or part of the Note, including the principal amount less unamortized prepaid interest, if any, plus any accrued interest could have been converted into shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock at the rate of $0.20 per share, at the option of the holder. Interest on the Note was pre-payable annually in cash or in shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, at the option of the Company, except that interest for the first year was pre-payable in shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, at the rate of $0.20 per share. As further discussed below, the Note and the detachable Warrant were redeemed in June 2022.

In connection with the issuance of the Note and the detachable Warrant, the Company allocated $15.0 million of the net proceeds from the loan to the detachable Warrant, allocated $12.0 million of the net proceeds to the beneficial conversion feature embedded in the Note and recognized deferred financing costs of $3.0 million. The resulting debt discount and the deferred financing costs were being amortized into interest expense over the term of the note (three years). During the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company issued to DSSI 27,000,000 shares of its Class A Common Stock, including 15,000,000 shares in payment of the loan Origination Fee and 12,000,000 shares in prepayment of interest for the first year and recognized a deemed dividend of $1,080,000 for the excess of the fair value of the shares issued over the amounts settled.

On June 15, 2022, the Company and DSSI which, together with DSS, is a majority shareholder of the Company, entered into an agreement pursuant to which the Company issued, to DSSI: (a) a two-year Convertible, Advancing Promissory Note in the principal amount of $27.0 million (the “2022 Note”) in favor of DSSI and (b) a detachable Warrant to purchase up to 818,181,819 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock at the exercise price of $0.033 per share. The 2022 Note bears interest at the annual rate of 8% and is due and payable on demand or, if no demand, on May 1, 2024. At any time during the term of the 2022 Note, all or part of the Note may be converted into up to 818,181,819 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, at the option of the holder. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company agreed to pay to DSSI a loan origination fee of $270,000. In addition, DSSI agreed to surrender to the Company all DSSI’s rights pursuant to: (a) a certain Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $30.0 million issued by the Company in April 2021 in favor of DSSI, and (b) a certain detachable Warrant to purchase up to 150,000,000 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, at $0.22 per share, issued concurrently with such $30.0 million note. The Company recognized the transaction with DSSI as a debt extinguishment in accordance with GAAP.
