FITLIFE BRANDS, INC. 10-K

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES (a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. In connection with the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2023, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“ CEO ”) and Chief Financial Officer (“ CFO ”), evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “ Exchange Act ”). Management previously determined that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective due to certain material weaknesses, as disclosed in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2022, and in our quarterly reports through the quarter ended March 31, 2023. Management has implemented measures designed to improve our controls and procedures to remediate the identified material weaknesses (the “ Remediation Plan ”). As of the year ended December 31, 2023, the Remediation Plan had been implemented and the applicable controls had operated for a sufficient period of time, and therefore management concluded that the newly implemented and enhanced controls were operating effectively. We will continue to test such controls over time to ensure the adequacy of our controls and procedures. -24- Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on management’s evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2023. (b) Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to an exemption for smaller reporting companies under Section 989G of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Our CEO and CFO evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2023. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“ COSO ”) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of December 31, 2023, our internal control over financial reporting was effective. (c) Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting. Our CEO and CFO have determined that, other than the Remediation Plan described above, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this Report identified in connection with the evaluation described in the above paragraph that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

TABLE OF CONTENTS Page REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM (Weinberg & Company, PA, PCAOB ID: 572 F-1 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS: Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2023 and 2022 F-2 Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 F-3 Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 F-4 Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 F-5 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS F-6 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of FitLife Brands, Inc. Omaha, NE Opinion on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of FitLife Brands, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matter The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. Acquisition of Mimi’s Rock - Fair Value of Intangible Assets As described in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company acquired Mimi’s Rock for net cash consideration of $17.1 million in 2023, which resulted in the recording of a $7.6 million an intangible asset. Management recorded the intangible asset acquired at fair value on the date of acquisition using an income approach. Management applied judgment in estimating the fair value of intangible asset acquired, which included the use of assumptions with respect to future earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) margins, revenue growth rates and discount rates. The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the fair value of intangible asset recorded in the acquisition of Mimi’s Rock constituted a critical audit matter are: (i) there was a high degree of auditor judgment and subjectivity in performing procedures relating to the fair value measurement of intangible assets acquired due to the judgment applied by management when developing the estimate; (ii) that significant audit effort was required in evaluating the assumptions relating to the estimated fair value of intangible assets, including future EBITDA margins, revenue growth rates, and discount rates; and (iii) that the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge. Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included, among others, (i) reading the purchase agreement; (ii) testing management’s process for estimating the fair value of intangible assets; (iii) evaluating the appropriateness of the valuation method given the nature of the asset; (iv) testing the completeness, accuracy, relevance and reliability of the data used in estimating the fair value of intangible assets; and (v) evaluating the reasonableness of the significant assumptions used by management. We have served as the Company’s auditor from 2018 through 2019, and since October 2022. Weinberg & Company, P.A. Los Angeles, California March 29, 2024 F-1 FITLIFE BRANDS, INC.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022 (in thousands, except per share amounts) Foreign Currency Translation The functional currency of the Company is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of the Company’s Canadian subsidiaries is the Canadian dollar. The assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars using end-of-period exchange rates. Changes in reported amounts of assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries that occur as a result of changes in exchange rates between foreign subsidiaries’ functional currencies and the U.S. dollar are included in foreign currency translation adjustment. Foreign currency translation adjustment is included as a component of stockholders’ equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Revenue and expense transactions use an average rate prevailing during the period of the related transaction. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of each subsidiary are included in the results of operations as incurred. Use of Estimates and Assumptions The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (ii) the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and (iii) the reported amount of net sales and expense recognized during the periods presented. Those estimates and assumptions include estimates for reserves of uncollectible accounts receivable, allowance for inventory obsolescence, product returns, depreciable lives of property and equipment, allocation of purchase price from business combinations, analysis of impairment of goodwill, realization of deferred tax assets, accruals for potential liabilities and assumptions made in valuing stock instruments issued for services. Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Revenue Recognition The Company’s revenue is comprised of sales of nutritional supplements and wellness products to consumers. The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with FASB ASC 606. The underlying principle of ASC 606 is to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at the amount expected to be collected. ASC 606 creates a five -step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contract(s), which includes ( 1 ) identifying the contract(s) or agreement(s) with a customer, ( 2 ) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, ( 3 ) determining the transaction price, ( 4 ) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and ( 5 ) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract are satisfied, which occurs for the Company upon shipment or delivery of products to our customers based on written sales terms. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring the products to a customer. All products sold by the Company are distinct individual products and consist of nutritional supplements and wellness products. The products are offered for sale solely as finished goods, and there are no performance obligations required post-shipment for customers to derive the expected value from them. The Company’s products are also sold on e-commerce platforms including Amazon. For these transactions, the Company evaluated principal versus agent considerations to determine appropriateness of recording distribution and platform fees paid to third -party e-commerce companies as an expense or as a reduction of revenue. The Company records distribution and platform fees to cost of goods sold in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. Distribution and platform fees are not recorded as a reduction of revenue because the Company: 1 ) owns the goods before they are transferred to the customer, 2 ) can direct Amazon, similar to other third -party logistics providers (“Logistic Providers”), to return the Company’s inventory to any location specified by the Company, 3 ) has the responsibility to make customers whole following any returns made by customers directly to Logistic Providers and the Company retains the back-end inventory risk, 4 ) is subject to credit risk (i.e., credit card chargebacks), 5 ) establishes prices of its products, 6 ) can determine who fulfills the goods to the customer (Amazon or the Company) and 7 ) can limit quantities or stop selling the goods at any time. Based on these considerations, the Company is the principal in this arrangement. Advertising fees paid to Amazon are recorded in selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. F- 7 FITLIFE BRANDS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022 (in thousands, except per share amounts) The Company disaggregates revenue into geographical regions and distribution channels. The Company determines that disaggregating revenue into these categories achieves the disclosure objective to depict how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. Online revenue, which consists of revenue generated from sales on the Company’s own websites as well as third -party e-commerce platforms such as Amazon, for the year ended December 31, 2023 was approximately 63 % of total revenue, compared to roughly 28 % of total revenue during the same twelve -month period in 2022. Sales to customers in the U.S. were approximately 93 % and 99 % for the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, with the balance of sales to customers primarily in Canada. Control of products we sell transfers to customers upon shipment from our facilities or delivery to our customers, and the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied at that time. Shipping and handling activities are performed before the customer obtains control of the goods and therefore represent a fulfillment activity rather than promised goods to the customer. Payments for sales are generally made by check, credit card, or wire transfer. Historically the Company has not experienced any significant payment delays from customers. For direct-to-consumer sales, the Company allows for returns within 30 days of purchase. Our wholesale customers, such as GNC, may return purchased products to the Company under certain circumstances, which include expired or soon-to-be-expired products located in GNC corporate stores or at any of its distribution centers, and products that are subject to a recall or that contain an ingredient or ingredients that are subject to a recall by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. A right of return does not represent a separate performance obligation, but because customers are allowed to return products, the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled is variable. Upon evaluation of returns, the Company determined that product returns are immaterial, and therefore believes it is probable that such returns will not cause a significant reversal of revenue in the future. We assess our contracts and the reasonableness of our conclusions on a quarterly basis. Customer and Vendor Concentration Total net sales to GNC during 2023 and 2022 were 33 % and 67 % of total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Accounts receivable attributable to GNC as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 represented 30 % and 43 % of the Company’s total accounts receivable balance, respectively. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, there was one vendor who accounted for 51 % and 78 % of the Company's consolidated accounts payable, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2023, there were three vendors who accounted for 37 %, 30 %, and 10 % of the Company's inventory-related purchases. For the year ended December 31, 2022, there were two vendors who accounted for 49 % and 18 % of the Company's inventory-related purchases, respectively. Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts All of the Company’s accounts receivable balance is related to trade receivables. Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company will maintain allowances for doubtful accounts, estimating losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments for products. Accounts with known financial issues are first reviewed and specific estimates are recorded. The remaining accounts receivable balances are then grouped into categories by the number of days the balance is past due, and the estimated loss is recorded based upon management’s assessment of collectability. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when it is probable that the receivable will not be recovered. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company had provided a reserve for doubtful accounts of $ 17 and $ 50 , respectively. F- 8 FITLIFE BRANDS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022 (in thousands, except per share amounts) Product Returns, Sales Incentives and Other Forms of Variable Consideration In measuring revenue and determining the consideration the Company is entitled to as part of a contract with a customer, the Company takes into account the related elements of variable consideration. Such elements of variable consideration include, but are not limited to, product returns and sales incentives, such as markdowns and margin adjustments. For these types of arrangements, the adjustments to revenue are recorded at the later of when (i) the Company recognizes revenue for the transfer of the related products to the customers, or (ii) the Company pays, or promises to pay, the consideration. We currently have a 30 -day product return policy for direct-to-consumer sales, which allows for a 100% sales price refund for the return of unopened and undamaged products purchased from us online through one of our websites or e-commerce platforms. Product sold to certain wholesale customers may be returned from store shelves or the distribution center in the event product is damaged, short dated, expired or recalled. GNC maintains a customer satisfaction program which allows customers to return product to the store for credit or refund. Subject to certain terms and restrictions, GNC may require reimbursement from vendors for unsaleable returned product through either direct payment or credit against a future invoice. We also support a product return policy for iSatori Products, whereby customers can return product for credit or refund. Product returns can and do occur from time to time and can be material. For the sale of goods with a right of return, the Company estimates variable consideration using the most likely amount method and recognizes revenue for the consideration it expects to be entitled to when control of the related product is transferred to the customers and records a product returns liability for the amount it expects to credit back its customers. Under this method, certain forms of variable consideration are based on expected sell-through results, which requires subjective estimates. These estimates are supported by historical results as well as specific facts and circumstances related to the current period. The product returns liability includes estimates that directly impact reported revenue. These estimates are calculated based on a history of actual returns, estimated future returns and information provided by customers regarding their inventory levels. Consideration of these factors results in an estimate for anticipated sales returns that reflects increases or decreases related to seasonal fluctuations. In addition, as necessary, product returns liability may be established for significant future known or anticipated events. The types of known or anticipated events that are considered, and will continue to be considered, include, but are not limited to, changes in the retail environment and the Company's decision to continue to support new and existing products. Information for product returns is received on a regular basis and adjusted for accordingly. Adjustments for returns are based on factual information and historical trends for Company products and are specific to each distribution channel. We monitor, among other things, remaining shelf life and sell-through data on a weekly basis. If we determine there are any risks or issues with any specific products, we accrue sales return allowances based on management’s assessment of the overall risk and likelihood of returns in light of all information available. Total allowance for product returns, sales returns and incentive programs as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 amounted to $ 571 and $ 590 , respectively. Cost of Goods Sold Cost of goods sold is comprised of the costs of products, in-bound freight charges, shipping and handling costs, purchase and receiving costs, and commissions paid to Amazon and other online selling platforms. Other expense not related to the production and distribution of our products is classified as operating expense. Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Restricted Cash The Company’s cash balances on deposit with banks are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $ 250 at December 31, 2023. The Company may be exposed to risk for the amounts of funds held in bank accounts more than the insurance limit. In assessing the risk, the Company’s policy is to maintain cash balances with high-quality financial institutions. The Company had cash balances more than the guarantee during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. Management believes that the financial institutions that hold the Company’s cash are financially sound and, accordingly, minimal credit risk exists. Restricted cash consists of cash on deposit with a financial institution in an interest-bearing account pursuant to a credit card agreement. F- 9 FITLIFE BRANDS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022 (in thousands, except per share amounts) Inventory Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with costs determined on a first -in, first -out (FIFO) basis. We regularly review our inventory quantities on hand and record a provision for excess and obsolete inventory based primarily on our estimated forecast of product demand and/or our ability to sell the product(s) concerned and production requirements. Demand for our products can fluctuate significantly. Factors that could affect demand for our products include unanticipated changes in consumer preferences, general market conditions or other factors, which may result in cancellations of advance orders or a reduction in the rate of reorders placed by customers. Additionally, our management’s estimates of future product demand may be inaccurate, which could result in an understated or overstated provision required for excess and obsolete inventory. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the aggregate allowance for expiring, slow moving and excess inventory amounted to $ 162 and $ 107 , respectively. Leases The Company accounts for its leases in accordance with the guidance of ASC 842, Leases . The Company determines whether a contract is, or contains, a lease at inception. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement based upon the estimated present value of unpaid lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at lease commencement in determining the present value of unpaid lease payments. Property and Equipment Property and equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method. The Company amortizes leasehold improvements over the estimated life of these assets or the term of the lease, whichever is shorter. When items are retired or otherwise disposed of, income is charged or credited for the difference between net book value and proceeds realized. Ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and replacements and betterments are capitalized. The range of estimated useful lives used to calculate depreciation for principal items of property and equipment are as follows: Asset category Depreciation / Amortization period (in years) Furniture and fixtures 3 Office equipment 3 Leasehold improvements 5 Management regularly reviews property, equipment and other long-lived assets for possible impairment. This review occurs annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Based upon management’s annual assessment, there were no indicators of impairment of the Company’s property and equipment and other long-lived assets as of December 31, 2023 and 2022. Intangible and Long-lived Assets Intangible assets are recorded at cost and amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. The Company regularly reviews the carrying value and estimated lives of its long-lived assets and intangible assets to determine whether indicators of impairment may exist which warrant adjustments to carrying values or estimated useful lives. The determinants used for this evaluation include management’s estimate of the asset’s ability to generate positive income from operations and positive cash flow in future periods as well as the strategic significance of the assets to the Company’s business objectives. Should an impairment exist, the impairment loss would be measured based on the excess of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset group over the asset’s fair value. F- 10 FITLIFE BRANDS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022 (in thousands, except per share amounts) There were no impairment charges incurred during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. Goodwill The Company has determined that it has a single reporting unit for purposes of performing its goodwill impairment test. The Company reviews goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more-likely-than- not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform an impairment test. If the qualitative assessment warrants further analysis, the Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. The fair value of the reporting unit is determined using the market approach. The Company determines the amount of a potential goodwill impairment by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. To the extent the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, a goodwill impairment charge is recognized. As the Company uses the market approach to determine fair value of the reporting unit, the price of its common stock is an important component of the fair value calculation. If the Company’s stock price experiences significant price and volume fluctuations, this will impact the fair value of the reporting unit, which can lead to potential impairment in future periods. There were no impairment charges incurred during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. Acquisitions and Business Combinations The Company allocates the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and separately identified intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from acquired trademarks and trade names, useful lives, and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period, which is the period needed to gather all information necessary to make the purchase price allocation, not to exceed one year from the acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to earnings. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes (“ ASC 740 ”). Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The deferred tax assets of the Company relate primarily to operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes. The deferred tax liabilities of the Company relate primarily to intangible assets that are not deductible for tax purposes in the jurisdictions to which they relate. The Company periodically evaluates its tax positions to determine whether it is more likely than not that such positions would be sustained upon examination by a tax authority for all open tax years, as defined by the statute of limitations, based on their technical merits. The Company accrues interest and penalties, if incurred, on unrecognized tax benefits as components of the income tax provision in the accompanying consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. As of December 31, 2023, and 2022, the Company has not established a liability for uncertain tax positions. F- 11 FITLIFE BRANDS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022 (in thousands, except per share amounts) Net Income Per Share Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all dilutive potential common shares had been issued using the treasury stock method. Potential common shares are excluded from the computation when their effect is antidilutive. The dilutive effect of potentially dilutive securities is reflected in diluted net income per share if the exercise prices were lower than the average fair market value of common shares during the reporting period. Basic and diluted weighted-average shares outstanding and antidilutive options that were excluded from diluted weighted average shares outstanding are as follows: December 31, 2023 2022 Basic weighted average shares outstanding 4,490 4,553 Dilutive effect of potential common shares 415 422 Diluted weighted average shares outstanding 4,905 4,975 Antidilutive options 117 29 Fair Value Measurements The Company uses various inputs in determining the fair value of its investments and measures these assets on a recurring basis. Financial assets recorded at fair value in the balance sheets are categorized by the level of objectivity associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value , establishes a three -level valuation hierarchy for the use of fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date: ● Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. ● Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including 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; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. ● Level 3 – Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. These inputs rely on management’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The unobservable inputs are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances and may include the Company’s own data. The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of its notes payable approximate their fair value based on the market interest rates of these notes. F- 12 FITLIFE BRANDS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2023 AND 2022 (in thousands, except per share amounts) Stock Compensation Expense The Company periodically issues restricted share units (“ RSUs ”), stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services rendered. Such issuances vest and expire according to the terms established at the issuance date. Stock-based payments to officers, directors, employees and consultants for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees, which include grants of employee stock options, are recognized in the financial statements based on their grant date fair values in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation . Stock-based payments to officers, directors, and employees, which are generally time vested, are measured at the grant date fair value and compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Recognition of compensation expense for non-employees is in the same period and manner as if the Company had paid cash for the services. The fair value of stock-based payments is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model or other applicable valuation model such as the Monte Carlo valuation pricing model, which uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life, and future dividends. The assumptions used could materially affect compensation expense recorded in future periods. Segments The Company operates in one segment for the distribution of our products. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting , the Company’s chief operating decision maker has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. Existing guidance, which is based on a management approach to segment reporting, establishes requirements to report selected segment information quarterly and to report annually entity-wide disclosures about products and services, major customers, and the countries in which the entity holds material assets and reports revenue. All material operating units qualify for aggregation under “Segment Reporting” due to their similar customer base and similarities in: economic characteristics; nature of products and services; and procurement, manufacturing and distribution processes. Since the Company operates in one segment, all financial information required by “Segment Reporting” can be found in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016 - 13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326 ): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ ASU 2016 - 13 ”). The amendments included in ASU 2016 - 13 require the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Although the new standard, known as the current expected credit loss (“ CECL ”) model, has a greater impact on financial institutions, most other organizations with financial instruments or other assets (trade receivables, contract assets, lease receivables, financial guarantees, loans and loan commitments, and held-to-maturity debt securities) are subject to the CECL model and will need to use forward-looking information to better evaluate their credit loss estimates. Many of the loss estimation techniques applied today will still be permitted, although the inputs to those techniques will change to reflect the full amount of expected credit losses. In addition, ASU 2016 - 13 amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. ASU 2016 - 13 was originally effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. In November of 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019 - 10, which delayed the implementation of ASU 2016 - 13 to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 for smaller reporting companies. The Company has adopted this guidance beginning January 1, 2023. This guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements. In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022 - 04, Liabilities-Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405 - 50 ): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations. The ASU requires buyers to disclose information about their supplier finance programs. Interim and annual requirements include the disclosure of outstanding amounts under the obligations as of the end of the reporting period, and annual requirements include a roll-forward of those obligations for the annual reporting period, as well as a description of payment and other key terms of the programs. This update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years, except for the requirement to disclose roll-forward information, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. The Company adopted ASU 2022 - 04 on January 1, 2023, and there was no material impact on our financial statements. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023 - 07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280 ): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosure , which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expense categories that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included in each reported measure of a segment’s profit or loss. The update also requires all annual disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets to be provided in interim periods and for entities with a single reportable segment to provide all the disclosures required by ASC 280, Segment Reporting , including the significant segment expense disclosures. This standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2024 and interim periods beginning in fiscal year 2025, with early adoption permitted. The updates required by this standard should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented in the financial statements. The Company does not expect this standard to have a material impact on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

Pursuant to the Previous Credit Agreement, the Bank provided the Company with a term loan for the principal amount of $ 12,500 (“ Term Loan A ”), and a revolving line of credit of $ 3,500 (the “ Line of Credit ”, and collectively with the Term Loans, the “ Loan ”). The Company used the proceeds from the Loan to fund the acquisition of MRC and for general working capital purposes, including those of MRC. Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement On October 10, 2023, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “ Amended Credit Agreement ”) with the Bank, amending and restating the Credit Agreement, between the Company and the Bank. Pursuant to the Amended Credit Agreement, the Bank provided the Company with an additional Term Loan (“ Term Loan B ”) for the principal amount of $ 10,000 and extended the Line of Credit of $ 3.5 million to December 15, 2024. The Company used the proceeds from the loan to fund the acquisition of assets of MusclePharm (discussed in further detail in Note 8 ) and for general working capital purposes. Pursuant to the Amended Credit Agreement, the Term Loans accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to 2.75 % above the one -month secured overnight financing rate published for such day by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“ Term SOFR Rate ”); and the Company shall make payments on March 10th, June 10th, September 10th, and December 10th of each calendar year, of principal plus accrued interest on the Term Loans in amounts sufficient to fully amortize Term Loan A through February 28, 2028 and Term Loan B through October 10, 2028; and outstanding advances under the Line of Credit (“ Advances ”) will accrue interest at the Applicable Rate and the Company will pay the interest on the Advances monthly, with all principal and any accrued interest on outstanding Advances being due and payable in full on the Line of Credit maturity date.

In making such a determination, the Company considered all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and recent results of operations. Deferred income taxes have not been recorded on the basis differences for investments in consolidated subsidiaries as these basis differences are indefinitely reinvested or will reverse in a non-taxable manner.

As of December 31, 2023, the Company has not recorded any uncertain tax positions or any accrued interest and penalties on the consolidated balance sheet.
