Item 1. Legal Proceedings
In July 2020, we were served in an action filed
in the United States District Court for the District of Utah claiming that the Company promulgated false and misleading press releases
to increase the price of our stock to improperly benefit the officers and directors of the Company. The Plaintiff, Gelt Trading,
Ltd., a Cayman Islands limited company, demands compensatory damages sustained as a result of our alleged wrongdoing in an amount
to be proven at trial. We will vigorously defend this action as we do not believe it has any merit.
In September 2020, we were served in an
action filed in the United States District Court for the District of Utah claiming that the officers and the directors harmed
the Company by promulgating false and misleading press releases to increase the price of our stock to improperly benefit the
officers and directors of the Company. The Plaintiff, Luis Aguliera, on behalf of Co-Diagnostics, Inc. seeks damages from the
individual defendants and attorneys’ fees. We will vigorously defend this as we do not believe it has any merit. From
time to time, we may become involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of
business. Although we have received inquiries from FINRA, NASDAQ and the SEC, to which we have responded, to the best of our
knowledge, no governmental authority is contemplating any proceeding to which we are a party or to which any of our
properties or businesses are subject, which would reasonably be likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.
