ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION
OF BUSINESS
|
Organization
Nutriband Inc.
(the “Company”) is a Nevada corporation, incorporated on January 4, 2016. In January 2016, the Company acquired Nutriband
Ltd, an Irish company which was formed by the Company’s chief executive officer in 2012 to enter the health and wellness market
by marketing transdermal patches. References to the Company relate to the Company and its subsidiaries unless the context indicates otherwise.
On August 1,
2018, the Company acquired 4P Therapeutics LLC (“4P Therapeutics”) for $2,250,000, consisting of 250,000 shares of common
stock, valued at $1,850,000, and $400,000, and a royalty of 6% on all revenue generated by the Company from the abuse deterrent intellectual
property that had been developed by 4P Therapeutics payable to the former owner of 4P Therapeutics. The former owner of 4P Therapeutics
has been a director of the Company since April 2018, when the Company entered into an agreement to acquire 4P Therapeutics.
4P Therapeutics
is engaged in the development of a series of transdermal pharmaceutical products, that are in the preclinical stage of development. Prior
to the acquisition of 4P Therapeutics, the Company’s business was the development and marketing of a range of transdermal consumer
patches. Most of these products are considered drugs in the United States and cannot be marketed in the United States without approval
by the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”). The Company is not presently taking any steps to seek FDA approval of its
consumer transdermal products and its consumer products are not being marketed in the United States.
With the acquisition
of 4P Therapeutics, 4P Therapeutics’ drug development business became the Company’s principal business. The Company’s
approach is to use generic drugs that are off patent and incorporate them into the Company’s transdermal drug delivery system. Although
these medications have received FDA approval in oral or injectable form, the Company needs to conduct a transdermal product development
program which will include the preclinical and clinical trials that are necessary to receive FDA approval before we can market any of
our pharmaceutical products.
On August 25,
2020, the Company formed Pocono Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“Pocono Pharmaceuticals”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
On August 31, 2020, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities associated with the Transdermal, Topical, Cosmetic, and Nutraceutical
business of Pocono Coated Products LLC (“PCP”). The net assets were contributed to Pocono Pharmaceuticals. Included in the
transaction the Company also acquired 100% of the membership interests of Active Intelligence LLC (“Active Intelligence”).
See Note 2 for further details of the acquisition.
Pocono Pharmaceuticals
is a coated products manufacturing entity organized to take advantage of unique process capabilities and experience. Pocono helps their
customer with product design and development along with manufacturing to bring new products to market with minimal capital investment.
Pocono Pharmaceutical’s competitive edge is a low-cost manufacturing base: a result of its unique processes and state of the art
material technology. Active Intelligence manufactures activated kinesiology tape. The tape has transdermal and topical properties. This
tape is used as the same as traditional kinesiology tape.
In December
2019, COVID-19 emerged and has subsequently spread world-wide. The World Health Organization has declared COVID-19 a pandemic resulting
in federal, state and local governments and private entities mediating various restrictions, including travel restrictions, restrictions
on public gatherings, stay at home orders and advisories and quarantining people who may have been exposed to the virus. The effect of
these orders, government imposed quarantines and measures the Company would take, such as work-at-home policies, may negatively impact
productivity, disrupt our business and could delay our clinical programs and timelines, the magnitude of which will depend, in part, on
the length and severity of the restrictions and disruptions in our operations could negatively impact our business, operating results
and financial condition. Further, quarantines, shelter-in-place and similar government orders, or the perception that such orders, shutdowns,
or other restrictions on the conduct of business could occur, related to COVID-19 or other infectious diseases could impact personnel
at third-party manufacturing facilities in the United States and other countries, or the availability or cost of materials, which could
disrupt our supply chain.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|
Unaudited
Interim Financial Statements
The consolidated
balance sheet as of October 31, 2021, and the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity,
and cash flows for the periods presented have been prepared by the Company and are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, changes
in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for all periods presented have been made. The results for the nine months ended October 31, 2021,
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Nutriband’s Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended January 31, 2021.
Certain information
and footnote disclosures required under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”)
have been condensed or omitted from these consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations, including the interim
reporting requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The preparation of consolidated financial statements
in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and the disclosures
of contingent amounts in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes. Actual results could differ from estimates.
The Company’s
significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 1 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January
31, 2021. There were no significant changes to these accounting policies during the nine months October 31, 2021.
Going
Concern
As of October
31, 2021, the Company believes the substantial doubt about its status as a going concern has been resolved. The going concern conditions
that caused substantial doubt no longer exist as the Company has positive cash flow during the last quarter and as of October 31, 2021,
has positive working capital. In October 2021, the Company consummated a public offering and received net proceeds of $5,836,230. The
Company also received $2,026,500 of proceeds from the exercise of warrants. Management retired most of its debt and other current obligations.
Management has implemented other plans to alleviate the substantial doubt. These plans include a substantial increase in projected sales
commitments. These factors did not exist in prior years during its start-up operations. The Company’s recent history of losses has
continued but future positive cash flow projections due to its management’s plans which includes its acquisition in the latter part
of 2020 will enable the Company to alleviate the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s
plans have been currently implemented. The plans enable the Company to meet its obligations for at least one year from the date when the
financial statements are issued.
Principles
of Consolidation
The consolidated
financial statements of the Company include the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated. The operations of 4P Therapeutics are included in the Company’s financial statements from the date of acquisition
of August 1, 2018, and the operations of Pocono and Active Intelligence are included in the Company’s financial statements from
the date of acquisition of September 1, 2020. The wholly owned subsidiaries are as follows:
Nutriband
Ltd.
4P
Therapeutics LLC
Pocono
Pharmaceuticals Inc.
Use of
Estimates
The preparation
of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates including, but not limited to,
those related to such items as income tax exposures, accruals, depreciable/useful lives, allowance for doubtful accounts and valuation
allowances. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on other various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable
under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that
are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue
Recognition
In May 2014,
the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”), which amends the
accounting standards for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 is based on principles that govern the recognition of revenue at an amount an
entity expects to be entitled when products are transferred to a customer. The Company adopted the guidance under the new revenue standards
using the modified retrospective method effective February 1, 2018 and determined no cumulative effect adjusted to retained earnings was
necessary upon adoption. Topic 606 requires the Company to recognize revenues when control of the promised goods or services and receipt
of payment is probable. The Company recognizes revenue based on the five criteria for revenue recognition established under Topic 606:
1) identify the contract, 2) identify separate performance obligations, 3) determine the transaction price, 4) allocate the transaction
price among the performance obligations, and 5) recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied.
Revenue
Types
The following
is a description of the Company’s revenue types, which include professional services and sale of goods:
|
●
|
Service revenues include the contract of research and development related services with the Company’s
clients in the life sciences field on an as-needed basis. Deliverables primarily consist of detailed findings and conclusion reports provided
to the client for each given research project engaged.
|
|
●
|
Product revenues are derived from the sale of the Company’s consumer transdermal and coated products.
Upon the reception of a purchase order, we have the order filled and shipped.
|
Contracts with Customers
A contract with a customer exists when
(i) we enter into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the goods or services to be
transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these goods or services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and, (iii)
we determine that collection of substantially all consideration for services that are transferred is probable based on the customer’s
intent and ability to pay the promised consideration.
Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue is a liability related
to a revenue producing activity for which revenue has not been recognized. The Company records deferred revenue when it receives consideration
from a contract before achieving certain criteria that must be met for revenue to be recognized in conformity with GAAP.
Performance Obligations
A performance obligation is a promise
in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account in the new revenue standard. The contract
transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation
is satisfied. For the Company’s different revenue service types, the performance obligation is satisfied at different times. The
Company’s performance obligations include providing products and professional services in the area of research. The Company recognizes
product revenue performance obligations in most cases when the product has shipped to the customer. When we perform professional service
work, we recognize revenue when we have the right to invoice the customer for the work completed, which typically occurs over time on
a monthly basis for the work performed during that month.
All revenue
recognized in the income statement is considered to be revenue from contracts with customers.
Disaggregation of Revenues
The Company
disaggregates its revenue from contracts with customers by type and by geographical location. See the tables:

Accounts
receivable
Trade accounts
receivables are recorded at the net invoice value and are not interest bearing. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts
for estimated losses from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The Company determines its allowances by both specific
identification of customer accounts where appropriate and the application of historical loss to non-applicable accounts. For the nine
months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded no bad debt expense for doubtful accounts related to account receivable.
Inventories
Inventories
are valued at the lower of cost and reasonable value determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Net reasonable value is the
estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses. The cost of finished goods and
work in process is comprised of material costs, direct labor costs and other direct costs and related production overheads (based on normal
operating capacity). As of October 31, 2021, 100% of the inventory consists of raw materials.
Property,
Plant and Equipment
Property and
equipment represent an important component of the Company’s assets. The Company depreciates its plant and equipment on a straight-line
basis over the estimated useful life of the assets. Property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost. Expenditures for minor
repairs, maintenance and replacement parts which do not increase the useful lives of the assets are charged to expense as incurred. All
major additions and improvements are capitalized. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. The lives over which the fixed
assets are depreciated range from 3 to 20 years as follows:
Lab Equipment
|
5-10 years
|
Furniture and fixtures
|
3 years
|
Machinery
and equipment
|
10-20 years
|
Intangible
Assets
Intangible
assets include trademarks, intellectual property and customer base acquired through business combinations. The Company accounts for Other
Intangible Assets under the guidance of ASC 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other.” The Company capitalizes certain costs related
to patent technology. A substantial component of the purchase price related to the Company’s acquisitions have also been assigned
to intellectual property and other intangibles. Under the guidance, other intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their
estimated useful lives. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested annually for impairment. Trademarks, intellectual property
and customer base are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of ten years.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents
the difference between the total purchase price and the fair value of assets (tangible and intangible) and liabilities at the date of
acquisition. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually on January 31, and more frequently as circumstances warrant, and written down
only in the period in which the recorded value of such assets exceeds their fair value. The Company does not amortize goodwill in accordance
with ASC 350. On August 31, 2020, in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Pocono Coated Products LLC and Active Intelligence
LLC, the Company recorded Goodwill of $5,810,640. As of October 31, 2021, Goodwill amounted to $7,529,875.
Long-lived
Assets
Management
reviews long-lived assets for potential impairment whenever significant events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not recoverable and
exceeds its fair value. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the estimated undiscounted
cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If an impairment exists, the resulting write-down would
be the difference between the fair market value of the long-lived asset and the related book value.
Earnings
per Share
Basic earnings
per share of common stock is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during
the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common
stock and potential shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Potential shares of common stock consist of shares issuable
upon the exercise of outstanding options and common stock purchase warrants. As of October 31, 2021, and 2020, there were 1,347,928 and141,830
common stock equivalents outstanding, that were not included in the calculation of dilutive earnings per share as their effect would be
anti-dilutive.
Stock-Based
Compensation
ASC 718,
“Compensation - Stock Compensation,” prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment
transactions in which employee services, and, since February 1, 2019, non-employees, are acquired. Transactions include incurring
liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares, options and other equity instruments such as employee stock ownership plans and
stock appreciation rights. Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as
compensation expense in the financial statements based on their fair values. That expense is recognized over the period during which
an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting
period). As of February 1, 2019, pursuant to ASC 2018-07, ASC 718 was applied to stock-based compensation for both employees and
non-employees.
Research
and Development Expenses
Research and
development expenses are expensed as incurred.
Fair
Value Measurements
FASB ASC
820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure” (“ASC 820”), defines fair value as the exchange price that would
be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or
liability in an orderly transaction between participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which
requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC
820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value.
The Company
utilizes the accounting guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures for all financial assets and liabilities and nonfinancial
assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis during
the reporting period. The fair value is an exit price, representing the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer
a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants based upon the best use of the asset or liability at the measurement
date. The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. ASC 820 establishes
a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers are defined as follows:
|
Level 1
|
-Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets.
|
|
|
|
|
Level 2
|
-Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable.
|
|
|
|
|
Level 3
|
-Unobservable inputs about which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
|
The carrying
value of the Company’s financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, and accrued
expenses approximate their fair value due to the short maturities of these financial instruments.
Recent
Accounting Standards
The Company
has implemented all new pronouncements, including the adoption of ASU 2018-13, ASU 2019-12 and ASU 2020-06, that are in effect and that
may impact its consolidated financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have
been issued that might have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements or results of operations.

ACQUISITION OF BUSINESS
|
On August 31, 2020, the Company entered
into a Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”), with Pocono Coated Products (“PCP”), pursuant to which PCP agreed to
sell the Company certain of the assets and liabilities associated with its Transdermal, Topical, Cosmetic, and Nutraceutical business,
including: (1) all the equipment, intellectual property and trade secrets, cash balances, receivables, bank accounts and inventory, free
and clear of all liens, except for certain lease obligations, and (2), a 100% membership interest in Active Intelligence, LLC (collectively
the “Assets”). The net assets acquired were contributed to Pocono Pharmaceuticals Inc, a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary
of the Company. The purchase price for the Assets was (i) $6,085,180 paid with the issuance of 608,519 shares in the Company’s common
stock of Nutriband at a value of the average price of the previous 90 days at the date of Closing (the “Shares”), and (ii)
a promissory note of the Company, net of debt discount, in the principal amount, of $1,332,893 (the Note”) which is due upon the
earlier of (a) twelve (12) months from issuance, or (b) immediately following a capital raise of not less than $4,000,000 and/or a public
offering of no less than $4,000,000. Michael Myer, the CEO of PCP, has been elected to the Board of Directors of the Company for period
of one year at the annual meeting of shareholders of the Company held in October 2020.
The Agreement provides that it is effective
August 31, 2020, on which date the parties also entered into an escrow agreement (the “Escrow Agreement”), with legal counsel
serving as the escrow agent, providing for holding of the Note, certificate for the shares, and title to the Assets (held in a special
purpose subsidiary) as collateral security for completion of all closing conditions under the Agreement. On that date, the parties also
entered into a security agreement granting PCP a security interest in all proceeds of the Assets held as collateral under the Escrow Agreement.
The purpose of the Company entering
into the transaction is to enhance the transdermal products operations of the Company. The fair value of consideration given was allocated
to the net tangible assets acquired. Under U.S. GAAP, both the PCP segment and Active Intelligence were considered to be businesses and,
as such, the transaction was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting.

NOTES PAYABLE/CONVERTIBLE DEBT
|
Notes Payable
On March 21,
2020, the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES ACT” was enacted. The CARES ACT established the Paycheck
Protection Program (“PPP”) which funds small businesses through federally guaranteed loans. Under the PPP, companies are eligible
for forgiveness of principal and interest if the proceeds are used for eligible payroll costs, rent and utility costs. On June 17, 2020,
the Company’s subsidiary, 4P Therapeutics, was advanced $34,870 under the PPP, all of which was forgiven as of April 30, 2021. The
Company recorded a gain on the extinguishment of debt of $34,870 during the nine months ended October 31, 2021.
In
July 2020, a minority shareholder made an additional loan to the Company in the amount of $100,000. The loan is interest- free and
due upon demand. In October 2021, the loan was converted into 17,182 common shares of the Company. The shares were issued at fair
market value and no gain or loss was recorded for the transaction.
Active Intelligence,

Related
Party Payable
On August 31,
2020, in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Pocono Products LLC, the Company issued to Pocono Coated Products LLC a promissory
note, net of debt discount, in the amount of $1,332,893 with interest accruing at an annual rate of 0.17%, due on August 28, 2021, or
immediately following the earlier of a capital raise of no less than $4,000,000 and/or a public offering of no less than $4,000,000. Pocono
Coated Products LLC, a related party, is a shareholder of the Company. During the nine months ended October 31, 2021, the Company recorded
amortization of debt discount of $97,477. In October 2021, the note in the amount of $1,500,000 was paid in full.
Convertible
Debt
On October
30, 2019, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with two investors pursuant to which the Company issued to the investors
(i) 6% one-year convertible promissory notes in the principal amount of $270,000 and (ii) three-year warrant to purchase 50,000 shares
of common stock at an exercise price equal to the lesser of (i) $20.90 or (ii) if the Company completes a public offering, 110% of the
initial public offering price of the common stock in the public offering. The loans contained an original issue discount of $20,000 resulting
in gross proceeds from this financing of $250,000.
The notes are
convertible at a conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) the per share price of our common stock offered in a public offering or (ii)
the variable conversion price, which is defined as 70% of the lowest trading price of the common stock during the 20 trading days preceding
the date of conversion. The conversion price and the percentage of the trading price is subject to downward adjustment in the event the
Company fails to comply with the obligations under the notes. The Company has the right to prepay the notes during the 180 days following
the issuance of the notes at a premium of 115% of the outstanding principal and interest during the 60 days following the date of issuance
of the note, which percentage increases to 125% during the remainder of the 180-day period. The Company is required to pay the notes one
business day after the closing of the first to occur of (a) the next public offering of the Company’s securities or (b) the next
private placement of the Company’s equity or debt securities in which the Borrower received net proceeds of at least $1.0 million,
(c) issuance of securities pursuant to an equity line of credit or (d) a financing with a bank or other institutional lender.
The
embedded conversion option qualified for derivative accounting and bifurcation under ASC 815-15 Derivative and Hedging. The initial
fair of the conversion feature was $128,870 and the fair value of the warrants in connection with the notes were valued at $888,789
and were recorded based on their relative fair values. A debt discount to the note payables of $270,000 and an initial derivative
expense of $767,650 was recorded.
The debt discount
will be amortized over the life of the note. Amortization of the debt discount for the nine months ended October 31, 2020, was $202,500.
On March 25,
2020, the Company prepaid the convertible notes in the principal amount of $270,000 from the proceeds of a private placement. The total
payments, including a prepayment fee of $69,131 and accrued interest, was $345,565. As a result of the payment of the notes, the derivative
liability, which was $928,774 as of January 31, 2020, was reduced to zero. The warrants are no longer a derivative liability based on
the notes being paid in full.
Interest expense
for the nine months ended October 31, 2021was $115,268 including the amortization of the debt discount of $97,477 and interest expense
of $17,791. Interest expense for the nine months ended October 31, 2020, was $206,836 including the amortization of debt discount of $202,500
and interest expense of $4,336.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTIGENCIES
|
Legal Proceedings
On July 27, 2018, the Company commenced
an action in the Circuit Court of the Ninth Judicial Circuit in and for Orange County, Florida, against Advanced Health Brands, Inc.,
Raymond Kalmar, Paul Murphy, Michelle Polly-Murphy, Laura Fillman and John Baker, together with a Motion for Temporary Injunction Without
Notice and a Motion for Prejudgment Writ of Replevin arising from the Company’s decision to seek to rescind for misrepresentation
the agreement by which the Company acquired advanced Health Brands, Inc. for 1,250,000 shares of common stock valued at $2,500,000 and
seek return of the shares. On August 2, 2018, the court entered a Temporary Injunction Without Notice and an Order to Show Cause against
the defendants. Defendants Kalmar, Murphy, Polly-Murphy, and Baker filed a Motion to Dismiss the Company’s Verified Complaint, Motion
to Dissolve Temporary Injunction Without Notice and Response to Order to Show Cause, and Motion to Compel Arbitration. On January 4, 2019,
the court dismissed the Company’s complaint with prejudice, and directed the defendants to assign the Company within 30 days, the
six patents never duly transferred to the Company. On February 1, 2019, the Company appealed the court’s order. Pursuant to a settlement
agreement with one of the defendants, that defendant returned the 50,000 shares which had been issued to her, and the shares were cancelled
as of January 31, 2019. On June 7, 2019, the individual defendants (other than the defendant whom the Company has a settlement agreement),
filed a motion for sanctions and civil contempt against us, which generally claimed that we failed to comply with the Court’s January
4, 2019, order by refusing to issue the Ruling 144 letters that would allow the defendants to transfer their shares of common stock. On
October 29, 2019, the Court denied the Defendants motion. On March 20, 2020, the Florida district court of appeal reversed the lower court
ruling in the Florida state court action that dismissed our complaint, with prejudice, and gave us leave to file an amended complaint.
On July 7, 2020, Defendants filed Notice for Trial, requesting the court to set a trial date. The Company and defendants have served their
first set of interrogatories on each other and have filed answers and responses to each other’s first set of interrogatories.
On August 22, 2018, four of the defendants
in the Florida action described in the previous paragraph filed a complaint against the Company in the Franklin County, Ohio Court of
Common Pleas seeking a declaratory judgment permitting them to sell the shares of common stock they received pursuant to the acquisition
agreement. The parties have agreed to a stay pending the outcome of the Florida litigation.
On April 29, 2019, the Company filed
a securities fraud action in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York against Raymond Kalmar, Paul Murphy, Michelle
Polly-Murphy, Advanced Health Brands and TD Therapeutic, Inc. In the complaint the Company alleges that in 2017, the defendants fraudulently
and deceitfully obtained 1,250,000 shares of common stock by orchestrating a months-long scheme to defraud the Company. The Company is
seeking the return of the shares of common stock and monetary damages resulting from the defendants’ fraudulent conduct. The defendants
filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on August 23, 2019, and on September 13, 2019, the Company filed its response. On July 20, 2020,
the Court denied the defendant’s motion to dismiss the complaint, and the parties have recently commenced the discovery phase of
the litigation. The Court has scheduled a trial date in early 2022.
Employment
Agreements
The Company entered into a three-year
employment agreement with Gareth Sheridan, our CEO, effective April 25, 2019. The agreement also provides that the executive will continue
as a director. The agreement provides for an initial term, commencing on the effective date of the agreement and ending on January 31,
2024, and continuing on a year-to-year basis thereafter unless terminated by either party on not less than 30 days’ notice given
prior to the expiration of the initial term or any one-year extension. For his services to the Company during the term of the agreement,
Mr. Sheridan receives an annual salary $42,000 per annum, commencing on the effective date of the agreement and increasing to $250,000
per annum in the month in which the Company shall have received not less than $2,500,000 from one or more public or private financings
of the Company’s equity securities subsequent to the date of the agreement. During the year ended January 31, 2021, the salary was
increased to $60,000 per annum.
Rambam Agreement
On December 9, 2020, the Company entered
into a License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Rambam Med-Tech Ltd. (“Rambam”), Haifa, Israel, to develop
the RAMBAM Closed System Transfer Device (“CTSD”) and such other products as the parties agree to develop/commercialize. The
Company will license from Rambam the full technology, IP, and title to CTSD in the field, with an Initial license fee of $50,000 and running
royalties on net sales. The $50,000 license fee was paid by a third party at the direction of the Company in February 2021, at which time
the agreement became effective.
