30, 2023 AND 2022 (UNAUDITED) 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization and Nature of Operations Cardiff Lexington Corporation (“Cardiff”) was originally incorporated on September 3, 1986 in Colorado as Cardiff International Inc. On November 10, 2005, Cardiff merged with Legacy Card Company, LLC and changed its name to Cardiff Lexington Corporation. On August 27, 2014, Cardiff redomiciled and became a corporation under the laws of Florida. On April 13, 2021, Cardiff redomiciled and became a corporation under the laws of Nevada. Cardiff is an acquisition holding company focused on locating undervalued and undercapitalized companies, primarily in the healthcare industry, and providing them capitalization and leadership to maximize the value and potential of their private enterprises while also providing diversification and risk mitigation for stockholders. All of Cardiff’s operations are conducted through, and its income derived from, its various subsidiaries, which includes: · We Three, LLC dba Affordable Housing Initiative (“AHI”), which was acquired on May 15, 2014 and sold on October 31, 2022; · Edge View Properties, Inc. (“Edge View”), which was acquired on July 16, 2014; · Platinum Tax Defenders (“Platinum Tax”), which was acquired on July 31, 2018; and · Nova Ortho and Spine, PLLC (“Nova”), which was acquired on May 31, 2021. Princsiples of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Cardiff and its wholly owned subsidiaries AHI, Edge View, Platinum Tax and Nova (collectively, the “Company”). AHI is included in discontinued operations. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period amounts may have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. These reclassifications would have no material effect on the reported condensed consolidated financial results. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Management uses its historical records and knowledge of its business in making estimates. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Accounts Receivable Accounts receivable is reported on the balance sheet at the net amounts expected to be collected by the Company. Management closely monitors outstanding accounts receivable and charges off to expense any balances that are determined to be uncollectible, which was $ 270,000 and $ 0 as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had net accounts receivable of $ 9,193,529 and $ 6,604,780 , respectively. Accounts receivables are primarily generated from subsidiaries in their normal course of business. 7 CARDIFF LEXINGTON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2023 AND 2022 (UNAUDITED) Property and Equipment Property and equipment are carried at cost. Expenditures for renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property, equipment or leasehold improvements are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes based on the following estimated useful lives: Schedule of estimated useful lives Classification Useful Life Equipment, furniture, and fixtures 5 - 7 years Medical equipment 10 years Leasehold improvements 10 years or lease term, if shorter Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Goodwill and indefinite-lived brands are not amortized but are evaluated for impairment annually or when indicators of a potential impairment are present. The Company’s impairment testing of goodwill is performed separately from its impairment testing of indefinite-lived intangibles. The annual evaluation for impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles is based on valuation models that incorporate assumptions and internal projections of expected future cash flows and operating plans. The Company believes such assumptions are also comparable to those that would be used by other marketplace participants. During the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company did no t recognize any goodwill impairment. The Company based this decision on impairment testing of the underlying assets, expected cash flows, decreased asset value and other factors. Valuation of Long-lived Assets In accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360-10-5, “ Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets ”, all long-lived assets such as plant and equipment and construction in progress held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of assets to estimated discounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amounts of the assets exceed the fair value of the assets. Revenue Recognition The Company applies the following five-step model to determine revenue recognition: · Identification of a contract with a customer · Identification of the performance obligations in the contact · Determination of the transaction price · Allocation of the transaction price to the separate performance allocation · Recognition of revenue when performance obligations are satisfied. The Company only applies the five-step model when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception and once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assesses services promised within each contract and determines those that are performance obligations and assesses whether each promised service is distinct. The Company’s financial services sector reports revenues as services are performed and its healthcare sector reports revenues at the time control of the services transfer to the customer and from providing licensed and/or certified orthopedic procedures. The Company’s healthcare subsidiary does not have contract liabilities or deferred revenue as there are no amounts prepaid for services. 8 CARDIFF LEXINGTON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2023 AND 2022 (UNAUDITED) Healthcare Income Established billing rates are not the same as actual amounts recovered for the Company’s healthcare subsidiary. They generally do not reflect what the Company is ultimately paid and therefore are not reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company is typically paid amounts based on established charges per procedure with guidance from the annually updated Current Procedural Terminology (“CPT”) guidelines (a code set maintained by the American Medical Association through the CPT Editorial Panel), that designates relative value units (“RVU's”) and a suggested range of charges for each procedure which is then assigned a CPT code. This fee is discounted to reflect the percentage paid to the Company “using a modifier” recognized by each insurance carrier for services, less deductible, co-pay, and contractual adjustments which are deducted from the calculated fee. The net revenue is recorded at the time the services are rendered. Contract Fees (Non-PIP) The Company has contract fees for amounts earned from its Non-Personal Injury Protection (“PIP”) related procedures, typically car accidents, and are collected on a contingency basis. These cases are sold to a factor, who bears the risk of economic benefit or loss. After selling patient cases to the factor, any additional funds collected by the Company are remitted to the factor. Service Fees – Net (PIP) The Company generates services fees from performing various procedures on the date the services are performed. These services primarily include slip and falls as well as smaller nominal Non-PIP services. Fees are collected primarily from third party insurance providers. These revenues are based on established insurance billing rates less allowances for contractual adjustments and uncollectible amounts. These contractual adjustments vary by insurance company and self-pay patients. The Company computes these contractual adjustments and collection allowances based on its historical collection experience. Completing the paperwork for each case and preparing it for billing takes approximately ten business days after a procedure is performed. The majority of claims are then filed electronically except for those remaining insurance carriers requiring paper filing. An initial response is usually received within four weeks from electronic filing and up to six weeks from paper filing. Responses may be a payment, a denial, or a request for additional information. The Company’s healthcare revenues are generated from professional medical billings including facility and anesthesia services. With respect to facility and anesthesia services, the Company is the primary obligor as the facility and anesthesia services are considered part of one integrated performance obligation. Historically the Company receives 49.9% of collections from total gross billed. Accordingly, the Company recognized net healthcare service revenue as 49.9% of gross billed amounts. Historical collection rates are estimated using the most current prior 12-month historical payment and collection percentages. The Company’s healthcare subsidiary has contractual medical receivable sales and purchase agreements with third party factors which result in approximately 51% to 56% reduction from the accounts receivables amounts when a receivable is sold to the factors. The Company evaluated the factored adjustments considering the actual factored amounts per patient quarterly, and the reductions from accounts receivable that are factored were recorded in finance charges as other expenses on the consolidated statement of operations. The Company’s contracts for both its contract and service fees each contain a single performance obligation (providing orthopedic services), as the promise to transfer the individual services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts and, therefore, not distinct, as a result, the entire transaction price is allocated to this single performance obligation. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenues (net) when the patient receives orthopedic care services. The Company’s patient service contracts generally have performance obligations which are satisfied at a point in time. The performance obligation is for onsite or off-site care provided. Patient service contracts are generally fixed-price, and the transaction price is in the contract. Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of the contract with our patients are satisfied; generally, at the time of patient care. 9 CARDIFF LEXINGTON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2023 AND 2022 (UNAUDITED) Financial Services Income The Company generates revenue from providing tax resolution services to individuals and business owners that have federal and state tax liabilities by assisting its clients to settle outstanding tax debts. Additionally, services include back taxes, offer in compromise, audit representation, amending tax returns, tax preparation, wage garnishment relief, removal of bank levies and liens, and other financial challenges. The Company recognizes revenues for these services as services are performed. Advertising Costs Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs are included as a component of cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and changes in stockholders’ equity. The Company recognized advertising and marketing expense of $ 133,326 and $ 82,269 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company recognized advertising and marketing expense of $ 171,679 and $ 210,054 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in the condensed consolidated balance sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs), and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below: Level 1 Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measurement date. Level 2 Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, which are observable for the asset or liability through corroboration with market data at the measurement date. Level 3 Unobservable inputs that reflect management's best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity The Company accounts for its series N senior convertible preferred stock and series X senior convertible preferred stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with ASC 480, “ Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity ”. Conditionally redeemable preferred shares are classified as temporary equity within the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. Stock-Based Compensation The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation in which the Company obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions under the recognition and measurement principles of the fair value recognition provisions of section 718-10-30 of the FASB ASC. Pursuant to paragraph 718-10-30-6 of the FASB ASC, all transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date used to determine the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the performance is complete or the date on which it is probable that performance will occur. 10 CARDIFF LEXINGTON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2023 AND 2022 (UNAUDITED) Generally, all forms of share-based payments, including stock option grants, warrants and restricted stock grants and stock appreciation rights are measured at their fair value on the awards’ grant date, based on estimated number of awards that are ultimately expected to vest. The expense resulting from share-based payments is recorded in general and administrative expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Equity Instruments Issued to Parties Other Than Employees for Acquiring Goods or Services FASB ASU No 2018-07 prescribes equity instruments issued to parties other than employees. Income Taxes Income taxes are determined in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “ Income Taxes ”. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted income tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Any effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. ASC 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for how companies should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in their financial statements uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740, tax positions must initially be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. Such tax positions must initially and subsequently be measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority assuming full knowledge of the position and relevant facts. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any interest and penalties associated with tax positions and did no t have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions. Income (Loss) per Share FASB ASC Subtopic 260, Earnings Per Share , provides for the calculation of “Basic” and “Diluted” earnings per share. Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive securities had been issued. Potentially dilutive securities include outstanding stock options, warrants, and debts convertible into common stock. The dilutive effect of stock options and warrants are reflected in diluted earnings per common share by application of the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, an increase in the fair market value of the Company’s common stock can result in a greater dilutive effect from potentially dilutive securities. The diluted effect of debt convertibles is reflected utilizing the if converted method. Going Concern The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has negative working capital and an accumulated deficit. These factors raise substantial doubts about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has an accumulated working capital deficit of approximately $ 1.9 million . The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. 11 CARDIFF LEXINGTON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2023 AND 2022 (UNAUDITED) The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and the appropriateness of using the going concern basis is dependent upon, among other things, additional cash infusions. Management has prospective investors and believes the raising of capital will allow the Company to fund its cash flow shortfalls and pursue new acquisitions. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient capital from debt or equity transactions or from operations in the necessary time frame or on terms acceptable to it. Should the Company be unable to raise sufficient funds, it may be required to curtail its operating plans. In addition, increases in expenses may require cost reductions. No assurance can be given that the Company will be able to operate profitably on a consistent basis, or at all, in the future. Should the Company not be able to raise sufficient funds, it may cause cessation of operations. Recent Accounting Standards Changes to accounting principles are established by the FASB in the form of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) to the FASB's Codification. The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASU's on its financial position, results of operations, stockholders’ deficit, cash flows, or presentation thereof. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments , which supersedes current guidance by requiring recognition of credit losses when it is probable that a loss has been incurred. The new standard requires the establishment of an allowance for estimated credit losses on financial assets including trade and other receivables at each reporting date. The new standard will result in earlier recognition of allowances for losses on trade and other receivables and other contractual rights to receive cash. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10, Financial Instruments -- Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and hedging (Topic 815) and Leases (Topic 842) , which extends the effective date of Topic 326 for certain companies until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company has adopted this standard effective January 1, 2023, and it resulted in the Company recognizing an allowance for doubtful accounts of $ 270,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2023. Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards could have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As new accounting pronouncements are issued, the Company will adopt those that are applicable under the circumstances. 2. RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Subsequent to the initial issuance of the Company's 2021 financial statements on June 30, 2022, management reconsidered the methodology previously applied in its valuation of goodwill and redeemable preferred stocks. The Company agreed to issue 818,750 additional shares of series J Preferred Stock with an aggregate stated value equal to $3,275,000 if, as of May 31, 2022, Nova’s trailing twelve months minimum pre-tax net income exceeded $1,979,320 (the “Milestone”). The Company finalized its purchase price accounting and allocation in 2022 and recorded purchase consideration of $6,100,000 associated with the cash consideration, the fair value of the series J preferred stock and the fair value of the contingent consideration. The impact of the correction is reflected in $3,275,000 increase to goodwill and contingent consideration liability on the consolidated balance sheet. In December 2022, the Company identified an error in its classification for its series N senior convertible preferred stock for the acquisition of NOVA as presented in its audited balance sheet as of December 31, 2021. Pursuant to ASC 250, “Accounting changes and error corrections” issued by FASB and SAB 99 “Materiality” issued by SEC, the Company determined the impact of the error was immaterial. The impact of the error correction is reflected in $3,125,002 increase to the mezzanine equity and offsetting decrease to the Series N Preferred Stock in subject to possible redemption mezzanine equity line item. The Company and We3 managers entered into a resignation, release and buyback agreement and addendum, effective October 31, 2022. The Company presented in prior periods operating loss as loss from discontinued operations in the amount of $1,920 on the consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The Company identified that NOVA’s accounts receivable as presented in its balance sheet as of December 31, 2021, was understated due to an error in the collection utilized to estimate NOVA’s accounts receivable. The impact of this correction on the accounting estimates is reflected in $1,076,000 decrease to accounts receivable as of June 30, 2022 and $1,076,000 increase in finance charges for the six months ended June 30, 2022. 12 CARDIFF LEXINGTON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2023 AND 2022 (UNAUDITED) The following table summarizes the impacts of the error corrections on the Company's financial statements for each of the periods presented below: i.

REVISION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS During the preparation of the financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company found that the results of the settlement agreement with Red Rock Travel Group (“Red Rock”) were incorrectly reflected on the consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity(deficiency) as of December 31, 2022. The Company determined that these errors were immaterial to the previously issued consolidated financial statements, and as such no restatement was necessary. The revisions discussed below were made to the December 31, 2022 balance sheet and statement of stockholders’ equity (deficiency). As a result of the settlement agreement with Red Rock on July 29, 2022, the Company reduced 35,000,000 shares of common shares on the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022. The certificate of the common stock for 35,000,000 shares which were originally issued on February 24, 2020 was returned as part of the 2022 agreement with Red Rock and 3,500 common shares were cancelled which were equivalent to 35,000,000 shares before the 10,000:1 reverse split on May 12, 2020. Consequently, the December 31, 2022 financial statements as originally reported were understated by 34,996,500 common shares. The impact of the correction is reflected in the $35,097 increase to common stock and decrease the same amount to additional paid-in-capital on the consolidated statement of shareholders’ equity. The adjustment had no impact on earnings per share for any 2022 period. On July 31, 2018, the Company issued 8,200,562 shares of series K preferred stock to the prior owners of Red Rock for the consideration of the acquisition of Red Rock. The acquisition was not completed, and Red Rock returned the 8,200,562 shares of series K preferred shares during the year ended December 31, 2018. A total of 8,200,562 shares of series K Preferred Share were cancelled The impact of the correction is reflected in the $8,201 decrease to series K Preferred Stock and increase the same amount to additional paid-in-capital on the consolidated statement of shareholders’ equity (deficiency). 14 CARDIFF LEXINGTON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2023 AND 2022 (UNAUDITED) 4.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Leases ASC 842, “Leases”, requires that a lessee recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from operating leases, A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. In transaction, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at either the effective date (the “effective date method”) or the beginning of the earliest period presented (the “comparative method”) using a modified retrospective approach. Under the effective date method, the Company’s comparative period reporting is unchanged. In contrast, under the comparative method, the Company’s date of initial application is the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented, and the Topic 842 transition guidance is then applied to all comparative periods presented. Further, under either transition method, the standard includes certain practical expedients intended to ease the burden of adoption. The Company adopted ASC 842, January 1, 2020, using the effective date method and elected certain practical expedients allowing the Company not to reassess: · whether expired or existing contracts contain leases under the new definition of a lease; · lease classification for expired or existing leases; and · whether previously capitalized initial direct costs would qualify for capitalization under Topic 842. The Company also made the accounting policy decision not to recognize lease assets and liabilities for leases with a term of 12 months or less. The Company recorded operating lease expense of $ 56,378 and $ 34,305 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively and the Company recorded operating lease expense of $ 134,230 and $ 170,150 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

The healthcare segment still had available capacity to cover the increased patients and services. Depreciation expense . Our depreciation expense was $3,365, or 0.10% of revenue, for the three months June 30, 2023, as compared to $5,783, or 0.19% of revenue, for the three months June 30, 2022.

Our selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $195,924, or 22.62%, to $670,289 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 from $866,213 for the three months ended June 30, 2022. As a percentage of revenue, our selling, general and administrative expenses were 19.25% and 28.02% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Such decrease was primarily due to terminated employees in the financial services segment due to the decreased revenue and the bad debt expense for allowances for doubtful accounts relating to our healthcare services business. 33 Total other income (expense) . We had $890,092 in total other expense, net, for the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to other expense, net, of $1,147,509 for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Discontinued operations . For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded a loss from discontinued operations of $0 and $36,935, respectively. Net income (loss) . As a result of the cumulative effect of the factors described above, our net income was $816,078 for the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to net loss of $61,826 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $754,252, or 1219.96%.

Our total revenue increased by $355,226, or 5.93%, to $6,343,608 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $5,988,382 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Such increase was primarily due to increases in revenue from the healthcare segment. Revenue from the financial services segment decreased by $664,154, or 70.89%, to $272,703 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $936,857 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. Such decrease was primarily due to the loss of sales leads from the discontinued service with Optima Tax Relief, which affected the significant revenue reduction in the tax resolution business. Revenue from the healthcare services segment increased by $1,019,380, or 20.18%, to $6,070,905 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $5,051,525 for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Such decrease was primarily due a decrease from the financial service segment, offset by an increase from the healthcare segment. As a percentage of revenue, our total cost of sales was 32.89% and 36.95% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Cost of sales for the financial services segment decreased by $277,096, or 85.20%, to $48,126 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $325,222 for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

As a percentage of healthcare revenue, cost of sales was 32.13% and 31.52% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. This increase was generally in line with the increase in revenue from this segment. Gross profit . As a result of the foregoing, our total gross profit increased by $481,963, or 12.77%, to $4,257,499 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 from $3,775,536 for six months ended June 30, 2022.

Gross margin (percent of revenue) for the healthcare segment was 66.43% and 62.63% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Other expenses, net, for the six months ended June 30, 2022 consisted of interest expense and finance charges of $3,255,987 and amortization of debt discounts of $156,252, offset by other income of $8. Discontinued operations . For the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded a loss from discontinued operations of $0 and $35,542, respectively. Net income (loss) . As a result of the cumulative effect of the factors described above, our net income was $800,087 for the six months ended June 30, 2023, as compared to net loss of $1,624,280 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, an increase of $2,424,367, or 149.26%. Liquidity and Capital Resources As of June 30, 2023, we had $411,209 in cash. To date, we have financed our operations primarily through revenue generated from operations, sales of securities, advances from stockholders and third-party and related party debt. We believe, based on our operating plan, that current working capital and current and expected additional financing should be sufficient to fund operations and satisfy our obligations as they come due for at least one year from the financial statement issuance date. However, additional funds from new financing and/or future equity raises are required for continued operations and to execute our business plan and our strategy of acquiring additional businesses. The funds required to sustain operations ranges between $600,000 to $1 million and additional funds execute our business plan will depend on the size, capital structure and purchase price consideration that the seller of a target business deems acceptable in a given transaction. The amount of funds needed to execute our business plan also depends on what portion of the purchase price of a target business the seller of that business is willing to take in the form of seller notes or our equity or equity in one of our subsidiaries. Given these factors, we believe that the amount of outside additional capital necessary to execute our business plan on the low end (assuming target company sellers accept a significant portion of the purchase price in the form of seller notes or our equity or equity in one of our subsidiaries) ranges between $5 million to $7 million. If, and to the extent, that sellers are unwilling to accept a significant portion of the purchase price in seller notes and equity, then the cash required to execute our business plan could be as much as $10 million. We intend to raise capital for additional acquisitions primarily through equity and debt financing. The sale of additional equity securities could result in dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and could require us to agree to operating and financial covenants that would restrict our operations. Financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. There is no guarantee that we will be able to acquire additional businesses under the terms outlined above.

Critical Accounting Policies The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires our management 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 a regular basis, we evaluate these estimates. These estimates are based on management’s historical industry experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates. For a description of the accounting policies that, in management’s opinion, involve the most significant application of judgment or involve complex estimation and which could, if different judgment or estimates were made, materially affect our reported financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, on June 30, 2023.

Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As required by Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, our management has carried out an evaluation, with the participation and under the supervision of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as of June 30, 2023. Based upon, and as of the date of this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer determined that, because of the material weaknesses described in Item 9A “Controls and Procedures” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, which we are still in the process of remediating as of June 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. Specifically, we did not design and maintain effective controls related to separation of duties as it relates to the preparation and review of financial statements and monitoring, documenting over internal control procedures and environment. Investors are directed to Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 for the description of these weaknesses. 39 Remediation of Material Weaknesses in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting We have evaluated the material weakness described above and our management and board of directors are committed to the design and successful implementation of internal control over financial reporting as promptly as possible. We currently plan to evaluate our updated internal controls design and determine whether the controls have operated effectively during the year ended of 2023 in order to fully remediate the aforementioned material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, our management has identified the steps necessary to address the material weaknesses, and in the second quarter of 2023, we continued to implement the following remedial procedures: · We plan to make necessary changes by providing training to our financial team and our other relevant personnel on the GAAP accounting guidelines applicable to financial reporting requirements. · We plan to implement proper documentation procedures for key functional areas, control objectives and our workflows. · We plan to reinforce effective compensating controls can improve the design of the current process with limited human resources. · We plan to develop a more comprehensive review process over our accounting policies and procedures to ensure that all required disclosures are included in our consolidated financial statements. · We plan to perform a review of key business process controls related to high-risk financial statement accounts, such as revenue, accounts receivables, convertible notes, and significant transactions, which resulted in addition of newly developed documented control activities, in order to mitigate material weakness and strengthen the overall control environments. We intend to complete the remediation of the material weaknesses discussed above as soon as practicable, but we can give no assurance that we will be able to do so. Designing and implementing an effective disclosure controls and procedures is a continuous effort that requires us to anticipate and react to changes in our business and the economic and regulatory environments and to devote significant resources to maintain a financial reporting system that adequately satisfies our reporting obligations. The remedial measures that we have taken and intend to take may not fully address the material weaknesses that we have identified, and material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures may be identified in the future. Should we discover such conditions, we intend to remediate them as soon as practicable. We are committed to taking appropriate steps for remediation, as needed. Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Other than in connection with the implementation of the remedial measures described above, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the second quarter of 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. 40 PART II OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1.
