+Added: The Company’s operations
+Added: have not been significantly impacted by COVID-19.
+Added: No impairments were recorded as of October 31, 2021 and no triggering events or changes
+Added: in circumstances had occurred.
+Added: However, the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve subsequent to the fiscal year ended

+Added: As such, the full magnitude of the COVID-19 pandemic,
+Added: and the resulting impact, if any, on the Company’s financial condition, liquidity, and future results of operations is uncertain.
+Added: However, the Company was indirectly impacted by supply chain issues and
+Added: regulatory oversight.
+Added: First, COVID-19 impacted Bidi’s ability to quality test and develop its new product, the BIDI ®
+Added: Pouch, in line with its targeted release date, which negatively impacted our ability to begin distribution of the BIDI ®
+Added: Throughout the year and during the Premarket Tobacco Product Application (“PMTA”) process, the Food and Drug Administration
+Added: (“FDA”) reiterated their enhanced scrutiny over ENDS products and raised the bar.
+Added: Impact of FDA PMTA Decision
+Added: As of September 10, 2021, the FDA announced that it
+Added: has taken action on over 93% of applications and issued Marketing Denial Orders (“MDOs”) for more than 1,167,000 flavored
+Added: ENDS products, while issuing zero marketing authorizations.
+Added: Bidi, along with nearly every other company
+Added: in the ENDS industry, received a MDO for its non-tobacco flavored ENDS products.
+Added: With respect to Bidi, the MDO covered all non-tobacco
+Added: flavored BIDI® Sticks, including its Arctic (menthol) BIDI® Stick, which Bidi believes the FDA mischaracterized as “flavored.”
+Added: BIDI believes that because its Arctic BIDI® Stick is menthol, it should not be subject to the MDO.
+Added: Bidi and the Company believe
+Added: this position is aligned with the FDA’s public statements and press releases stating that tobacco and menthol ENDS are not
+Added: deemed flavored products subject to the MDOs.
+Added: As a result, beginning in September 2021, Bidi
+Added: pursued three avenues to challenge the MDO.
+Added: First, on September 21, 2021, separate from the judicial appeal of the MDO in its entirety,
+Added: Bidi filed a 21 C.F.R.
+Added: § 10.75 internal FDA review request specifically of the decision to include the Arctic (menthol) BIDI®
+Added: Stick in the MDO.
+Added: The Company anticipates a decision from the FDA on the internal review in the second or third quarter of 2022,
+Added: although we cannot provide any assurances as to the timing or outcome.
+Added: Separately, on September 29, 2021, Bidi petitioned
+Added: Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit to review the FDA’s denial of the PMTAs for its non-tobacco flavored BIDI®
+Added: Stick ENDS, arguing that it was arbitrary and capricious under the Administrative Procedure Act (“APA”), as well as
+Added: ultra vires , for the FDA not to conduct any scientific review of the company’s comprehensive applications, as required
+Added: by the Tobacco Control Act, to determine whether the BIDI® Sticks are “appropriate for the protection of the public health”
+Added: Bidi further argued that the FDA violated due process and the APA by failing to provide fair notice of the FDA’s
+Added: new requirement for ENDS companies to conduct long-term comparative smoking cessation studies for their flavored products.
+Added: 1, 2022, U.S.
+Added: Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit granted Bidi’s motion to stay (put on hold) the MDO, pending the
+Added: litigation on the merits.
+Added: The court-ordered stay means that the MDO is not legally in force.
+Added: Accordingly, we anticipate being able
+Added: to continue marketing and selling the Products, subject to the FDA’s enforcement discretion, while Bidi continues with its
+Added: merits case challenging the legality of the MDO.
+Added: FDA has indicated that it is prioritizing enforcement against companies that have
+Added: either not submitted PMTAs, or whose PMTAs have been refused acceptance or filing by FDA, or whose PMTAs remain subject to MDOs.
+Added: arguments in the merits-based proceeding are currently scheduled for May 2022.
+Added: Finally, on October
+Added: 14, 2021, Bidi requested FDA re-review the MDO and reconsider its position that Bidi did not include certain scientific data in
+Added: its applications sufficient to allow the PMTAs to proceed to scientific review.
+Added: In light of this request, on October 22, 2021 pursuant
+Added: § 10.35(a), FDA issued an administrative stay of Bidi’s MDO pending its re-review .
+Added: Subsequently, FDA lifted its administrative stay on December 17, 2021.
+Added: Following the lifting of the FDA’s administrative
+Added: stay, Bidi filed a renewed motion to stay the MDO with the U.S.
+Added: Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit, which was granted on
+Added: February 1, 2022.
+Added: In the event that the U.S.
+Added: Court of Appeals
+Added: issues for the Eleventh Circuit a ruling adverse to Bidi, or if FDA otherwise chooses to enforce against Bidi, Bidi will be forced
+Added: to cease the continued sale of its non-tobacco flavored BIDI® Stick products in the United States, thereby resulting in the
+Added: Company being unable to distribute such products, the Company’s business and financial condition would be materially adversely
+Added: The Company cannot provide any assurances as to the timing or outcome of the merits-based case.
+Added: Risks and Uncertainties
+Added: Historically, substantially all of the Company’s
+Added: revenues were derived from sales of flavored BIDI® Sticks, including the Arctic (menthol) BIDI® Stick, sales of which constituted
+Added: approximately 18.4% and 12.9% of its total sales of BIDI® Sticks for the fiscal years ended October 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
+Added: The uncertainty of any potential decisions by the FDA leading up to the MDO negatively impacted the Company’s overall revenues for
+Added: the last two quarters of fiscal 2021.
+Added: Generally, substantially all of the ENDS industry’s revenue is derived from the sales of flavored
+Added: In addition, Bidi has received approval to market
+Added: and distribute products within 11 international markets, including the United Kingdom, France, Russia, and the Czech Republic.
+Added: also secured significant intellectual property protections similar to those received in the United States from the European Union, China,
+Added: and several other regions and countries.
+Added: It is also important to note that the nicotine formulation in the Bidi® Stick has been modified
+Added: and approved at the 2% level to meet the criteria for distribution in the United Kingdom and Europe.
+Added: These international market approvals Bidi has previously
+Added: secured are for the full formulation lineup, including all flavors.
+Added: Because the FDA’s PMTA restrictions and guidelines do not pertain
+Added: to international markets, Bidi intends to continue manufacturing its full product lineup, for distribution by the Company in these international
+Added: The Company is also exploring potential partnerships with international distribution companies in order to possibly expand BIDI®
+Added: Stick distribution more rapidly in these international markets.
