NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Company Overview
Blue Star Foods Corp., a Delaware corporation (“we”, “our”, the “Company”), is an international sustainable marine protein company based in Miami, Florida that imports, packages and sells refrigerated pasteurized crab meat, and other premium seafood products. The Company’s main operating business, John Keeler & Co., Inc. (“Keeler & Co.”) was incorporated in the State of Florida in May 1995. The Company has three other subsidiaries, Coastal Pride, TOBC and AFVFL which maintain the Company’s fresh crab meat, steelhead salmon and packaged seafood and other inventory businesses, respectively. The Company’s current source of revenue is importing blue and red swimming crab meat primarily from South East Asia and distributing it in the United States and Canada under several brand names such as Blue Star, Oceanica, Pacifika, Crab & Go, First Choice, Good Stuff and Coastal Pride Fresh, and steelhead salmon and rainbow trout fingerlings produced under the brand name Little Cedar Farms for distribution in
Canada.
On
February 3, 2022, Coastal Pride entered into an asset purchase agreement with Gault Seafood, LLC, a South Carolina limited liability
company (“Gault Seafood”), and Robert J. Gault II, President of Gault Seafood (“Gault”) pursuant to which Coastal
Pride acquired all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to assets relating to Gault Seafood’s soft-shell crab
operations, including intellectual property, equipment, vehicles and other assets used in connection with the soft-shell crab business.
Coastal Pride did not assume any liabilities in connection with the acquisition. The purchase price for the assets consisted of a cash
payment in the amount of $
On
February 1, 2024, the Company entered into a ninety-day Master Services Agreement (the “Services Agreement”) with Afritex
Ventures, Inc. a Texas corporation (“Afritex”), pursuant to which the Company will be responsible for all of Afritex’s
operations and finance functions. The Company will provide Afritex with working capital in order to sustain operations and will purchase
certain inventory listed in the Services Agreement. In consideration for its services, during the term of the Services Agreement, the
Company will earn all of the revenue and profits by the purchase and sale of Afritex’s inventory. Under the Services Agreement,
Afritex may not sell or otherwise use as consideration any of its intellectual property without the Company’s consent. The Company
must maintain certain commercial liability insurance during the term of the Services Agreement. The Services Agreement also provides
that the Company may not solicit Afritex employees for 24 months nor circumvent existing business relationships of Afritex for three
years, after the term of the Services Agreement.
In
connection with the Services Agreement, on February 12, 2024, the Company entered into an Intangibles Assets and Machinery Option to
Purchase Agreement with Afritex (the “Option Agreement”). Pursuant to the Option Agreement, the Company has the option to
purchase Afritex’s intangible assets, machinery and equipment set forth in the Option Agreement for a purchase price of $
In connection with the Services Agreement, on February 1, 2024, AFVFL, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, was incorporated in the State of Florida for the purpose of purchasing raw materials from Afritex for the preparation of packaged seafood and other inventory to be sold to various customers in the United States. Following the expiration of the Services Agreement with Afritex, AFVFL is no longer an active operating entity of the Company. AFVFL has not conducted any operating activities since the expiration of the Services Agreement and had no material assets or liabilities as of December 31, 2025.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company dissolved Afritex Ventures Inc. (“AFVFL”).

On
May 20, 2024, the Company amended its Certificate of Incorporation to affect a
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The following unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, such interim financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for complete annual financial statements. The information furnished reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items which are, in the opinion of management, necessary in order to make the financial statements not misleading. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 has been derived from the Company’s annual financial statements that were audited by our independent registered public accounting firm but does not include all of the information and footnotes required for complete annual financial statements. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto which are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 filed with the SEC on May 22, 2026 for a broader discussion of our business and the risks inherent in such business.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, Keeler & Co, Inc. a wholly owned subsidiary, Coastal Pride Seafood, LLC (“Coastal Pride”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Keeler & Co., Inc., Taste of BC Aquafarms, Inc. (“TOBC”), a wholly owned subsidiary, and Afritex Ventures Inc. (“AFVFL”) a wholly owned subsidiary. AFVFL was dissolved during 2025 and, accordingly, its accounts are included in the consolidated financial statements only through the date of dissolution. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as such, we record revenue when our customer obtains control of the promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. The Company’s source of revenue is from importing blue and red swimming crab meat primarily from South East Asia and distributing it in the United States and Canada under several brand names such as Blue Star, Oceanica, Pacifika, Crab & Go, First Choice, Good Stuff and Coastal Pride Fresh, and steelhead salmon and rainbow trout fingerlings produced under the brand name Little Cedar Farms for distribution in Canada. We sell primarily to food service distributors. The Company also sells its products to wholesalers, retail establishments and seafood distributors.
To determine revenue recognition for the arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of Topic 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer by receipt of purchase orders and confirmations sent by the Company which includes a required line of credit approval process, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract which includes shipment of goods to the customer FOB shipping point or destination, (3) determine the transaction price which initiates with the purchase order received from the customer and confirmation sent by the Company and will include discounts and allowances by customer if any, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract which is the shipment of the goods to the customer and transaction price determined in step 3 above and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation which is when the Company transfers control of the goods to the customers by shipment or delivery of the products.
The Company elected an accounting policy to treat shipping and handling activities as fulfillment activities. Consideration payable to a customer is recorded as a reduction of the arrangement’s transaction price, thereby reducing the amount of revenue recognized, unless the payment is for distinct goods or services received from the customer.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consist of unsecured obligations due from customers under normal trade terms, usually net 30 days. The Company grants credit to its customers based on the Company’s evaluation of a particular customer’s credit worthiness.
Allowances for credit losses are maintained for potential credit losses based on the age of the accounts receivable and the results of the Company’s periodic credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. Receivables are written off as uncollectible and deducted from the allowance for doubtful accounts after collection efforts have been deemed to be unsuccessful. Subsequent recoveries are netted against the allowance for credit losses. The Company generally does not charge interest on receivables.
Receivables
are net of estimated allowances for doubtful accounts and sales return, allowances and discounts. They are stated at estimated net
realizable value. As of March 31, 2026, the Company recorded allowances for sales returns, allowances and discounts of approximately
$
Inventories
Substantially all of the Company’s inventory consists of packaged crab meat located at a public cold storage facility and merchandise in transit from suppliers. The Company also has eggs and fish in process inventory from TOBC and raw materials for packaged seafood and other inventory from AFVFL. The cost of inventory is primarily determined using the specific identification method for crab meat and raw materials for packaged seafood inventory. Fish in process inventory is measured based on the estimated biomass of fish on hand. The Company has established a standard procedure to estimate the biomass of fish on hand using counting and sampling techniques. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, cost being determined using the first-in, first-out method for crab meat and raw materials for packaged seafood inventory and using various estimates and assumptions in regard to the calculation of the biomass, including expected yield, market value of the biomass, and estimated costs of completion.
Merchandise is purchased on a cost and freight shipping point basis, and it becomes the Company’s asset and liability upon leaving the suppliers’ warehouse.
| 9 |
The
Company periodically reviews the value of items in inventory and records an allowance to reduce the carrying value of inventory to the
lower of cost or net realizable value based on its assessment of market conditions, inventory turnover and current stock levels. For
the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recognized an inventory reserve of $

| Inventory, net | $ | $ | ||||||
Lease Accounting
The Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842, Leases, which requires all leases to be reported on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets and lease obligations. The Company elected the practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance that retained the lease classification and initial direct costs for any leases that existed prior to adoption of the standard.
The
Company categorizes leases with contractual terms longer than twelve months as either operating or finance. Finance leases are generally
those leases that would allow the Company to substantially utilize or pay for the entire asset over its estimated life. Assets acquired
under finance leases are recorded in property and equipment, net. All other leases are categorized as operating leases. The Company did
not have any finance leases as of March 31, 2026. The Company’s leases generally have terms that range from
Lease liabilities are recognized at the present value of the fixed lease payments using a discount rate based on similarly secured borrowings available to us. Lease assets are recognized based on the initial present value of the fixed lease payments, reduced by landlord incentives, plus any direct costs from executing the lease. Lease assets are tested for impairment in the same manner as long-lived assets used in operations. Leasehold improvements are capitalized at cost and amortized over the lesser of their expected useful life or the lease term.
When we have the option to extend the lease term, terminate the lease before the contractual expiration date, or purchase the leased asset, and it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the option, we consider these options in determining the classification and measurement of the lease. Costs associated with operating lease assets are recognized on a straight-line basis within operating expenses over the term of the lease.
| 10 |
Long-lived Assets
Management
reviews long-lived assets, including finite-lived intangible assets, for indicators of impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Cash flows expected to be generated by the related assets are estimated over
the asset’s useful life on an undiscounted basis. If the evaluation indicates that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable,
the potential impairment is measured using fair value. Fair value estimates are completed using a discounted cash flow analysis. Impairment
losses for assets to be disposed of, if any, are based on the estimated proceeds to be received, less costs of disposal.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rates Risk
The Company manages its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates through its normal operating activities. Its primary focus is to monitor exposure to, and manage, the economic foreign currency exchange risks faced by, its operations and realized when the Company exchanges one currency for another. The Company’s operations primarily utilize the U.S. dollar and Canadian dollar as its functional currencies. Movements in foreign currency exchange rates affect its financial statements.
Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments
Fair value is defined as the amount that would be received for selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and is measured using inputs in one of the following three categories:
Level 1 measurements are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Valuation of these items does not entail a significant amount of judgment.
Level 2 measurements are based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active or market data other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 measurements are based on unobservable data that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The Company’s financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, debt obligations, derivative liabilities and warrant liabilities. The Company believes the carrying values of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values because they are short term in nature or payable on demand. The Company elected to account for certain convertible promissory notes at fair value, with the entire instrument measured at fair value on a recurring basis rather than separately accounting for embedded conversion features. The Company had convertible debt measured at fair value as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Key provisions include a requirement for tabular reconciliation using both percentages and amounts, broken out into specific categories, with certain reconciling items at or above a 5% quantitative threshold further disaggregated by nature and/or jurisdiction. Additionally, the ASU requires disclosure of income taxes paid (net of refunds received), disaggregated by federal, state/local, and foreign jurisdictions, and amounts paid to individual jurisdictions that comprise 5% or more of total income taxes paid. The ASU also eliminates certain existing disclosure requirements related to unrecognized tax benefits and cumulative unrecognized deferred tax liabilities. For public business entities, the amendments in ASU 2023-09 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 effective January 1, 2025. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU 2024-03 – Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This ASU requires public business entities to disclose more detailed information about certain costs and expenses in the notes to their financial statements, both in annual and interim filings. The objective is to provide investors with greater transparency into a company’s expense structure, enabling a better understanding of performance, assessment of future cash flows, and comparison with other entities. Key provisions include the disaggregation, in a tabular format, of specific natural expense categories such as purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization, within each relevant expense caption on the income statement. The ASU also requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses and a qualitative description of expenses remaining in the “other” category. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its financial statements and disclosures.
ASU 2025-11 — Interim Reporting (Topic 270)
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270). This ASU enhances interim reporting requirements by improving the consistency and transparency of disclosures provided in interim financial statements. The amendments are designed to provide users with more decision-useful information about changes in financial position and results of operations during interim periods. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this ASU on its interim financial statement disclosures.
ASU 2025-12 — Accounting Standards Codification Improvements
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-12, Accounting Standards Codification Improvements.

$
On March 4, 2026, the Company, through its subsidiary TOBC, filed an application with the Supreme Court of British Columbia seeking to set aside a February 23, 2026 order that terminated its lease and granted possession of the leased property to the landlords. The Company is seeking relief, including reinstatement of the lease, and contends that certain relevant facts were not presented to the Court at the original hearing. A hearing on the application was held on March 9, 2026, and the Court has reserved judgment.
On June 2, 2026, the Supreme Court of British Columbia dismissed the application filed by the Company’s subsidiary, TOBC, seeking reconsideration of the Court’s February 23, 2026 order terminating TOBC’s commercial lease and granting possession of the leased aquaculture facility to the landlords.
On June 24, 2026, TOBC filed a Notice of Appeal with the Court of Appeal for British Columbia seeking to overturn the June 2, 2026 judgment. Among other grounds, the appeal contends that the Supreme Court failed to address provisions of the parties’ lease agreement, including Paragraph 39(f), which the Company believes prohibited either party from commencing legal proceedings while the parties were engaged in the contractual mediation process. The Company contends that, at the time the landlords commenced their petition seeking termination of the lease, the parties were already participating in mediation pursuant to the lease agreement and that this contractual provision was neither presented to nor considered by the Court in rendering its decision. The Company further notes that, in its June 2, 2026 Reasons for Judgment, the Court acknowledged that TOBC’s January 2026 rent payment was made within the lease’s contractual grace period.
The appeal seeks, among other relief, an order setting aside the June 2, 2026 judgment and remitting the matter to the Supreme Court of British Columbia for a new hearing on the reconsideration application.
The appeal is in its preliminary stages, and no hearing date has been scheduled. The Company intends to pursue all available legal remedies. Because appellate proceedings are inherently uncertain, there can be no assurance that the appeal will be successful. Accordingly, the Company cannot predict the ultimate outcome of the appeal or reasonably estimate any potential loss, if any, related to this litigation.

Overview
We are an international seafood company that imports, packages and sells refrigerated pasteurized crab meat, and other premium seafood products.

We also sell our products to wholesalers, retail establishments and seafood distributors.
Recent Events
British Columbia Civil Claim
On March 4, 2026, the Company, through TOBC, filed a Notice of Application in the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the “Court”) in connection with a dispute with their landlords Steven Atkinson and Janet Atkinson (the “Landlords”) of the property located at 2930 Jameson Road, Nanaimo, B.C. V9R 6W8. The application seeks, among other things, reconsideration and setting aside of a February 23, 2026 order that terminated the Company’s lease and granted the landlords immediate possession of the property. The Company also seeks relief from forfeiture and reinstatement of the lease, or alternatively other interim and related relief. The Company’s application asserts that the order was made following a hearing at which the Company did not appear and that certain relevant facts were not before the Court, including that basic rent payments had been made within the time permitted under the lease and that the parties were engaged in mediation regarding a dispute over alleged additional rent & operational contradicting views under the lease. A hearing on the application was held on March 9, 2026. The presiding judge reserved judgment, and a decision has not yet been issued. The Company cannot predict the outcome of the proceeding or whether the requested relief will be granted.
Indonesian Supplier Civil Claim
The Company, together with its subsidiaries, has initiated legal proceedings against an Indonesian seafood supplier, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida. The complaint alleges breach of contract, violation of the Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act, and unjust enrichment arising from shipments delivered in 2022. According to the complaint, certain product lots supplied were determined to be rancid and unmarketable following customer complaints and third-party laboratory testing. The Company asserts that it incurred approximately $0.250 million in direct product losses, in addition to other related costs. The Company is seeking monetary damages, including consequential damages, as well as other relief. The outcome of this matter is currently uncertain, and no assurance can be given regarding the timing or ultimate resolution.

Net Revenue. Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2026 decreased 74.0% to $250,259 as compared to $960,758 for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as a result of a decrease in poundage sold during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2026 decreased to $8,747 as compared to $91,644 in the three months March 31, 2025.

Salaries and Wages Expense. Salaries and wages expense decreased to $182,877 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to $270,284 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This decrease is mainly attributable to a reduction in the number of employees as of March 31, 2026.

Other Operating Expense. Other operating expense decreased to $201,565 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $648,483 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This decrease is mainly attributable to legal and professional expenses related to our business operations.
Other Income. Other income decreased for the three months ended March 31, 2026 to $1,280 from $6,615 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This decrease is mainly attributable to other non-operating income recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2025.
Change in Fair Value of Derivatives and Warrants Liabilities. Change in fair value of derivatives and warrants liabilities decreased to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $14,090 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This decrease is attributable to the fair value measurement for the derivative liability for the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Change in Fair Value of Convertible Notes. Change in fair value of convertible notes increased to a loss of $136,729 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This increase is attributable to fair value measurement for convertible notes as of March 31, 2026.
Loss on Settlement of Debt. Loss on settlement of debt increased to $47,241 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $41,066 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase is attributable to convertible note payments during the three months ended March 31, 2026.
Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased to $32,530 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $208,048 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease is attributable to the decrease in amortization of debt discount and interest paid and accrued on the notes.
Net Loss. Net loss was $735,313 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to $1,199,930 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in net loss is primarily attributable to the change in fair value of derivative and warrant liabilities and the interest expense.

Cash Provided by Financing Activities. Cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $70,455 as compared to cash provided by financing activities of $80,167 for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease is mainly attributable due to the decreased repayments of short-term loans and less proceeds from short-term loan during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

The Company agreed to issue to Quick Capital and Jefferson up to 39,300 shares of our Common Stock as a “Commitment Fee”.
As part of the August Private Placement Offering, the Company issued two promissory notes each in the principal amount of $275,000 with an original issue discount of $25,000 (the “Private Placement Notes”). The Private Placement Notes have a one-time interest payment of $27,500. Thereafter, any principal amount of interest which is not paid upon maturity will accrue at a rate of the lesser of (i) sixteen percent (16%) per annum, or (ii) the maximum amount permitted by law from the due date thereof until the same is paid. The Private Placement Notes have a maturity date of 10 months after issuance and the proceeds from the notes are for general corporate purposes. The Company agreed to issue to each of Quick Capital and Jefferson 19,650 shares of Common Stock as additional consideration for entering into Private Placement Notes.
The investors have the right, at any time on or following the earlier of (i) the date that any of the shares are registered for resale under a registration statement of the Company or (ii) the date that is six (6) months after the issue date, to convert all or any portion of the then outstanding and unpaid principal and interest into fully paid and non-assessable shares of our Common Stock. The conversion price shall be $1.50, subject to adjustments. We have agreed to reserve a sufficient number of Common Stock (initially, 2,000,000 shares) for issuance upon conversion of the Private Placement Notes in accordance with their terms.
If an event of default occurs under the Private Placement Notes, the investors have the right to convert all amounts outstanding under the notes at any time thereafter into shares of Common Stock at the lesser of (i) the then applicable conversion price under the notes or (ii) the Market Price. “Market Price” shall mean 85% of the lowest VWAP on any trading day during the ten (10) trading days prior to the respective conversion date. “VWAP” means, for any security as of any date, the dollar volume-weighted average price for such security on the principal market during the period beginning at 9:30 a.m., Eastern Standard Time, and ending at 4:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, as reported by Quote stream or other similar quotation service provider designated by the investors.
The Company may prepay the Private Placement Notes at any time with fifteen (15) trading days prior written notice (the “Prepayment Notice Period”). During the Prepayment Notice Period, the investor shall have the right to convert all or any portion of the Private Placement Notes pursuant to the terms of the notes, including the amount of the Private Placement Notes to be prepaid. If the Company exercises its right to prepay the notes, the Company shall make payment to the investor of an amount in cash equal to the sum of: (i) 100% multiplied by the principal amount then outstanding plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to the Prepayment Notice Date, and (iii) $750 to reimburse the investor for administrative fees.
If the Company delivers a prepayment notice and fails to pay the applicable prepayment amount, the Company shall forever forfeit its right to prepay any part of the Private Placement Notes.

The Private Placement Notes have mandatory monthly payments of $43,200. The initial payments are due on November 9, 2024 and November 12, 2024, respectively.
The Company’s failure to comply with the material terms of the Private Placement Notes will be considered an event of default and the principal sum of the Private Placement Notes will become immediately due and payable at an amount equal to the principal amount then outstanding plus accrued interest (including any default interest) through the date of full repayment multiplied by 135%, as well as all costs, all without demand, presentment or notice, unless expressly waived by the investor.
The investors may assign their rights to any “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501(a) of the 1933 Act) in a private transaction or to any of its affiliates without the consent of the Company.
While the Private Placement Notes remain outstanding, we shall not, without the investor’s written consent (i) (a) pay, declare or set apart for such payment, any dividend or other distribution on shares of capital stock other than dividends on shares of Common Stock solely in the form of additional shares of Common Stock or (b) directly or indirectly or through any subsidiary make any other payment or distribution with respect to its capital stock except for distributions pursuant to any shareholders’ rights plan which is approved by a majority of the Company’s disinterested directors, (ii) redeem, repurchase or otherwise acquire (whether for cash or in exchange for property or other securities or otherwise) in any one transaction or series of related transactions any shares of capital stock of the Company or any warrants, rights or options to purchase or acquire any such shares, or repay any indebtedness of the investor (iii) advance any loans made in the ordinary course of business in excess of $100,000, (iv) sell, lease or otherwise dispose of any significant portion of our assets outside the ordinary course of business, and (v) enter into any transaction or arrangement structured in accordance with, based upon, or related or pursuant to, in whole or in part, either Section 3(a)(9) or Section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act.

Based on this evaluation our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that based on the material weaknesses discussed below our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act were recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that our disclosure controls are not effectively designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were:
● inadequate control over the monitoring of inventory maintained in the Company’s third-party warehouse;
● ineffective controls over the Company’s financial close and reporting process; and
● inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives, including lack of personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function of the Company.
Management’s Remediation Initiatives
In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we plan to further initiate, the following measures, subject to the availability of required resources:
● We plan to create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and hire personnel resources with technical accounting expertise within the accounting function; and
● We plan to create an internal control framework that will address financial close and reporting process, among other procedures.
