CAUTIONARY
STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This
Annual Report on Form 10-K contains statements that constitute forward-looking statements that are subject to the safe-harbor provisions
of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Statements that are not historical are forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Some of the statements in
this Annual Report constitute forward-looking statements because they relate to future events or the future performance or future financial
condition. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections
about our company, our industry, our beliefs and our assumptions. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements
regarding our or our management team’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In addition,
any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying
assumptions, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by the following words: “anticipate,”
“believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,”
“may,” “ongoing,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,”
“seek,” “should,” “target,” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions may identify
forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. These factors include
those set forth below and those disclosed under “ Risk Factors ”, below. Forward-looking statements in this Annual Report
may include, for example, statements about:
●
A
shift in pharmacy mix toward lower margin plans, margin compression on branded medications, or the increased offering of specialty
products, direct and indirect remuneration fees, mail order pharmacy steering, and programs;
●
Wellgistics
Health deriving a portion of its sales from prescription drug sales reimbursed by pharmacy benefit management companies;
●
Wellgistics
Health being adversely affected by a decrease in the introduction of new brand name and generic prescription drugs as well as increases
in the cost to procure prescription drugs;
●
changes
in economic conditions that adversely affect consumer/client buying practices and market adoption of Wellgistics Health’s DelivMeds
mobile application and the accompanying revenues to premium access/services;
●
Wellgistics
Health’s relationships with its primary wholesaler for pharmacy operations and Wellgistics Health’s manufacturer relationships
of its wholesale and hub technology platform subsidiaries;
●
changes
in the healthcare industry and regulatory environments;
●
the
effects of competition on Wellgistics Health’s future business;
●
Wellgistics
Health’s ability to execute its business plans and strategy; and
●
other
risks and uncertainties described in the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, including, but not limited
to, those risks described in the section entitled “ Risk Factors ” beginning on page 14 of this Annual
Report.
Should
one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in
material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting
us will be those that we have anticipated. Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based
are reasonable, any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those
assumptions also could be inaccurate. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statements
in this Annual Report should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved.
These
forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond our control) or other assumptions that
may cause actual results or performance to be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.
We
have based the forward-looking statements included in this Annual Report on information available to us on the date of this Annual Report,
and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements. Although we undertake no obligation to revise or update any
forward-looking statements in this Annual Report, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, you are advised
to consult any additional disclosures that we may make directly to you or through reports that we may file in the future with the SEC,
including Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K.

PART
I
ITEM
1.
BUSINESS
Overview
Incorporated
in 2022, we are a holding company for existing and future planned operating companies centered around pharmaceuticals and healthcare
services. We seek to be a micro health ecosystem, with a portfolio of companies consisting of a pharmacy, wholesale operations, and a
technology division that provides a novel platform for hub and clinical services. We are focused on improving the lives of patients while
delivering unique solutions for pharmacies, providers, pharmaceutical manufacturers, and payors. With the successful integration of its
patient-centric approach and innovative healthcare applications, we intend to shift the dynamic of pharmaceutical care to revolve around
the patient for a wide range of therapeutic conditions by offering a full spectrum of integrated solutions as a result of leveraging
the synergies of its business segments to address access, care coordination, dispensing, delivery, and clinical management of pharmaceutical
products ranging from “specialty-lite” to general maintenance conditions.
We
currently exist as a holding company conducting business through two wholly owned subsidiaries— Wood Sage LLC (“Woodsage”)
and Wellgistics, LLC (“Wellgistics LLC”)—and two indirect subsidiaries—Alliance Pharma Solutions LLC d/b/a DelivMeds
(n/k/a Wellgistics Tech & Hub, LLC) (“DelivMeds”) and Community Specialty Pharmacy, LLC (n/k/a Wellgistics Pharmacy,
LLC) (“Wellgistics Pharmacy”).
In
January 2023, we entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Wood Sage MIPA”) with Nikul Panchal, an individual
resident of the State of Florida in connection with our acquisition of Wood Sage (the “Wood Sage Acquisition”). We completed
the Wood Sage Acquisition on June 16, 2024, paying Mr. Panchal in shares of our common stock equal to approximately $400,000 issued at
a 20% discount. Wood Sage is a holding company incorporated as a limited liability company formed under the laws of Florida on June 27,
2014. To date, Wood Sage has had no operations. In August 2023, Wood Sage acquired 100% of the outstanding membership interests of DelivMeds
and Wellgistics Pharmacy. DelivMeds was founded in 2017 as a holding company for technology solutions, namely the DelivMeds technology
platform that was recommissioned to serve as a pharmaceutical hub to facilitate the transfer of prescriptions and provide backend clinical
concierge services to a network of independent pharmacies. Wellgistics Pharmacy, was founded in 2011 as a retail community specialty
pharmacy and has been continuously operating.
On
May 11, 2023, we entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement with Wellgistics LLC and its owners, Strategix Global LLC, Nomad
Capital LLC, Jouska Holdings LLC, and Brian Norton (the “Wellgistics MIPA”), whereby we agreed to acquire all of the issued
outstanding membership interests of Wellgistics LLC. Wellgistics LLC was founded in 2013 and has been continuously operating.
On
August 4, 2023, the Company and Wellgistics LLC amended the Wellgistics MIPA to extend the termination date of the Wellgistics MIPA to
no later than December 26, 2023, and designate Brian Norton as a representative who may act on behalf of all named sellers in the Wellgistics
MIPA. On December 26, 2023, the Company and Wellgistics LLC further amended the Wellgistics MIPA to extend the termination date to March
29, 2024. On March 22, 2024, the Company and Wellgistics LLC further amended the Wellgistics MIPA to extend the termination date to August
31, 2024, and to provide for the Company to extend such date for a maximum of ninety days, among other things.
On
August 23, 2024, the Company and Wellgistics LLC entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Wellgistics MIPA, which amended the purchase
price to be paid by us for acquiring Wellgistics LLC, the closing date of the transaction, and certain other terms and conditions. The
purchase price that we agreed to pay Wellgistics LLC under the revised agreement consists of:
●
a
closing cash payment of $10 million, $1 million of which is payable in immediately available funds to Zions Bank, a creditor of Wellgistics
LLC, by wire transfer, and the remainder of which is due no later than the earlier of 45 calendar days following effectiveness of
this registration statement and August 30, 2025;
●
a
promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $15 million plus simple interest accruing annually equal to the “Prime
Rate” as published by the Wall Street Journal on January 1 of the applicable year, together payable in three equal annual
installments commencing on the first anniversary of the date that this registration statement becomes effective;
●
bonus
payments in the form of the Company’s common stock equaling an aggregate value of $10 million that vest over three years and
are payable in three equal annual installments;
●
bonus
payments in the form of the Company’s common stock in an aggregate amount of up to $5 million that vest only if certain financial
metrics are met, with unvested shares of common stock subject to repurchase by us for a nominal purchase price if such financial
metrics are not met; and
●
contingent
bonus payments consisting of 50% cash and 50% the Company’s common stock to the extent that our EBITDA is in excess of 110%
of certain established targets for each of the years ended December 31, 2024, December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2026.
4
On
August 30, 2024, we closed on the acquisition of Wellgistics LLC, thereby making Wellgistics LLC—a company focused on wholesale
operations including the distribution and fulfillment of certain pharmaceutical medications to a network of independent pharmacies meant
to improve market access to and patient outcomes regarding the medications—a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Wellgistics
Acquisition”).
On
November 4, 2024, the Company and Wellgistics LLC further amended the Wellgistics MIPA to convert the $10 million and $5 million respective
bonus payments into an immediate share issuance of 3,999,335 shares of restricted the Company’s common stock. 2,666,223 shares
of common stock vest in equal annual installments over a period of three years. These shares of common stock are not subject to repurchase
by us. 1,333,112 shares have been fully issued, but vest only upon the achievement of certain financial metrics. In the event the stated
metrics for the applicable year are not achieved, we can repurchase the applicable portion of the 1,333,112 unvested shares for nominal
consideration of $0.0001 per share.
On
March 6, 2025, the Company and Wellgistics LLC further amended the Wellgistics MIPA to extend the due date of the $10 million closing
cash payment such that the closing cash payment will be due upon the earlier of (i) 120 calendar days following effectiveness of the
Registration Statement on Form S-1 that we filed with the SEC on July 22, 2024, as subsequently amended and (ii) or August 30, 2025.
We
focus on offering “specialty-lite” or niche pharmaceutical products and services through Wood Sage and support these activities
through Wellgistics LLC. We intend to source and distribute these products to our pharmacy subsidiary and our network of independent
pharmacy partners throughout the U.S., positioning us to negotiate greater discounts based on market share. Our management believes that
our digital pharmacy business, hub and clinical services technology platform, and wholesale distribution operations will place us in
a position to provide significant value in this key “specialty-lite” market by providing patients access and convenience,
while providing partners with ready-to-go market solutions with big data.
Data
released from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services illustrates that the National Health Expenditure Data for 2022 grew to
$4.5 trillion dollars and accounted for 17.3% of GDP. A deeper dive of this report reveals that total retail prescription drug specialty
drug market accounts for less than 10% of total drugs in the market but is responsible for greater than 50% of the prescription drug
spend per annum. It is well documented in the literature that the with an expected increase in the health spending share of GDP to 19.7%
by 2032. IQVIA’S 2024 report on medicine spending trends found that overall spending in the U.S. market for medicines reached $435
billion in 2023. After evaluating reasons for increased healthcare expenditure, poor medication adherence continues to be a challenge
that causes unnecessary strain on the healthcare system, including, but not limited to, increased hospital admissions and readmissions
rates from medication non-compliance and adverse events. Many of these factors are preventable by empowering patient autonomy in their
healthcare journey, identifying cost savings opportunities, and providing access to clinical resources and support.
Our
management believes that we will be in a prime position to address prescription spending in the “specialty lite” therapy
area while improving patient health outcomes by equipping patients with innovative digital health tools. Our pharmacy business, acquired
through the Wood Sage acquisition, has expanded our service coverage area while strengthening its clinical expertise in several key therapeutic
categories, including services such as care coordination and patient financial assistance. We anticipates that potential partner relationships
will enable the pharmacy business to offer a competitive cash formulary as an alternative option when high insurance deductibles make
such formulary economically feasible.
Since
acquiring Wellgistics LLC’s wholesale operations, we intend to expand our wholesale activities by continuing to partner with existing,
and establishing new, manufacturer relationships. These relationships will help provide sales and clinical education support to pharmacies
purchasing pharmaceutical products. Our planned wholesale operations will help us strategically identify opportunities to wholesale products
that are normally not carried by the three largest wholesalers in the U.S. Furthermore, these wholesale activities should help us enter
exclusive or semi-exclusive relationships based on a time period to support revenue maximization. We anticipates that new partnerships
with group purchasing organizations “GPOs” will be effective, as such partnerships increase the business division’s
visibility with many of our member pharmacies.
5
As
a result of the Wood Sage Acquisition, we acquired the novel DelivMeds technology platform that will serve as a pharmacy hub and allow
for clinical services to be connected to our pharmacy operations. This platform will allow for an end-to-end mobile application solution
whereby patients can digitize their prescription journey. The solution helps to preserve patient autonomy, improve prescription price
transparency, and provide additional concierge services in an effort to boost medication adherence and improve patient outcomes. The
DelivMeds pharmacy hub will aggregate the data collected from administering the software to provide aggregated reports that are tied
to medication adherence and outcomes to make a meaningful impact for all stakeholders involved.
Pharmacy
— Wellgistics Pharmacy
Wellgistics
Pharmacy, was founded in 2011 as a retail community specialty pharmacy. Specializing in HIV/AIDS, the pharmacy obtained accreditation
from the Utilization Review Accreditation Commission and the Accreditation Commission for Health Care for Specialty Pharmacy and has
performed general pharmacy services in its community. In 2018, Integral Health, Inc. a Delaware corporation (“Integral”),
acquired Wellgistics Pharmacy and relocated Wellgistics Pharmacy to Tampa, Florida. Subsequently, Wellgistics Pharmacy expanded its business
operations to perform 340B services by partnering with local clinics and provider groups. During this time period, the pharmacy initiated
its pursuit of additional pharmacy state licenses to convert Wellgistics Pharmacy’s business to a mail order pharmacy. Currently,
Wellgistics Pharmacy is licensed in 32 states and the District of Columbia, with superb license coverage along the east coast. As a result
of this strategic business shift Wellgistics Pharmacy’s leadership team chose to voluntarily forfeit Wellgistics Pharmacy’s
specialty accreditations. However, Wellgistics Pharmacy maintains specialty internal standard operating procedures and performs all of
the functions of a specialty pharmacy.
Wellgistics
Pharmacy provides general and specialty pharmacy services dedicated to servicing the needs of patients, and also provides clinical expertise,
technology-driven innovation tools, and administrative efficiencies that support physicians, payers, and pharmaceutical manufacturers.
Wellgistics Pharmacy purchases pharmaceuticals including specialty medications from manufacturers and wholesale distributors, fills prescriptions,
and labels, packages and delivers these pharmaceuticals to patients’ homes or physicians’ offices through contract couriers
or carriers. Wellgistics Pharmacy maintains a call center and customer support within its pharmacy located in Tampa, Florida. Wellgistics
Pharmacy has several 340B relationships, acting as the dispensing pharmacy for these healthcare facilities. These relationships help
drive revenue and prescription volume. Wellgistics Pharmacy’s direct ownership of a wholesale entity along with our deep-rooted
ties to other wholesalers enables Wellgistics Pharmacy to offer a competitive cash-based formulary for the uninsured and underinsured
patient populations. Wellgistics Pharmacy continues to see an uptick in utilization, as more patients elect to pay out of pocket due
to our low-cost model, which Wellgistics Pharmacy believes is an opportunity to gain market share with small- to medium-size employer
groups in a partnership model with other consumer driven healthcare companies. The services that Wellgistics Pharmacy provides to its
patients and other constituents are vital to the revenue and prescription volume generated from this division.
Wellgistics
Pharmacy’s general and specialty pharmacy services include:
●
Patient
Care Coordination : Wellgistics Pharmacy’s dedicated pharmacy team coordinates and tracks patient adherence and safety.
Pharmacists and pharmacy technicians work together to complete patient enrollment and work with prescribers to identify potential
adherence failures and implement proactive plans to optimize treatment effectiveness.
●
Clinical
Services : Wellgistics Pharmacy’s pharmacists, with the assistance of pharmacy technicians, provide clinically-based
drug therapy management programs for clients and patients. These programs include new disease state counseling, adverse event monitoring,
refill check-ins, and overall medication therapy management (“MTM”) services. Wellgistics Pharmacy’s pharmacists’
work with patients’ prescribers to identify adherence failures and to implement a proactive plan to achieve intended effectiveness.
Wellgistics Pharmacy also provides emergency pharmacy support services.
6
●
Compliance
and Persistency Programs : Wellgistics Pharmacy’s compliance and persistency programs support the needs of patients
based on their therapy regimen. High-risk patients are proactively managed by Wellgistics Pharmacy’s pharmacy teams to ensure
adherence to therapy programs. Wellgistics Pharmacy offers special compliance packaging including unit dose and blister packs to
promote patient adherence.
●
Patient
Financial Assistance : Wellgistics Pharmacy’s pharmacy team, in conjunction with its partners, assists patients by navigating
their benefits and finds third-party financial assistance to address coverage deficiencies. When available, Wellgistics Pharmacy
works with available co-pay assistance programs, including co-pay card enrollment and program management. Wellgistics Pharmacy’s
team also coordinates with many external charitable foundations and research grant organizations that help subsidize the cost of
medications for patients.
●
Prior
Authorization : Wellgistics Pharmacy’s pharmacy team, in conjunction with its partners, assists in coordinating with
prescribing physicians and their staff, contacts the patient’s insurance plan and collects all necessary patient specific information,
together with supporting documentation, to provide to the appropriate third party to support reimbursement for the prescribed medication.
If the required therapy is not listed on the third-party payer’s formulary, Wellgistics Pharmacy compiles the necessary information
to file a formulary exception on behalf of the patient.
●
Risk
Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy : Wellgistics Pharmacy’s pharmacy team administers Risk Evaluation and Mitigation
Strategy (“REMS”) protocols on all levels of risk mitigation, which is required by many pharmaceutical manufacturers
due to regulatory requirements. The United States Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) requires REMS from certain
manufacturers to ensure that the benefits of a drug or biological product outweigh its risks. Manufacturers are required to comply
with specific FDA requirements that may include medication use guides, black box warnings/patient package insert language, and a
communication plan to healthcare providers. As part of REMS protocols, manufacturers may also be required to comply with Elements
to Assure Safe Use (“ETASU”) to mitigate a specific serious risk listed in the labeling of the drug, including specialized
training and certifications, required dispensing locations, patient monitoring, and associated reporting. Wellgistics Pharmacy has
standard operating procedures in place to support all aspects of a REMS program, including REMS administration, REMS drug fulfillment,
disease management, medication guide dispensing, and the ETASU specific to a pharmaceutical manufacturer’s program.
The
current Wellgistics Pharmacy revenue model is based on prescription fulfillment and reimbursement from payors (i.e., insurance companies/pharmacy
benefit managers) and patient copayments for prescription drugs. Wellgistics Pharmacy performs and absorbs the cost of the general and
specialty pharmacy services. The value of the combined Wellgistics Pharmacy and DelivMeds model is to the opportunity to centrally perform
the general and specialty services on behalf of our network of independent pharmacies, leveraging proprietary technology solutions thereby
reducing network pharmacy administrative burden and associated costs. Our current financials do not reflect income for these general
and specialty services on behalf of the network partner pharmacies. In the near future, we expect that our model will generate recurring
SaaS transaction fees for use of our technology to transfer prescriptions into the network. Revenue driven by this model will be derived
from pharmaceutical manufacturers and other strategic channel partners paying for the following services: patient care coordination,
clinical services, compliance and persistency programs, patient financial assistance, prior authorizations and access to data.

provides. Wood Sage acquired DelivMeds in August 2023, and we acquired Wood Sage in June 2024. We anticipate that DelivMeds will serve
as the middleware technology arm to our integrated healthcare ecosystem.

DelivMeds’
hub and clinical services include:
●
Robust
Hub Pharmacy Network : DelivMeds has relationships with multiple entities (i.e., pharmacy management software (“PMS”)
systems, wholesalers, buying groups, secondary channel partners, etc.) and their pharmacy networks to provide a robust pharmacy network
for prescription dispensing services which spans across all 50 states.
●
Patient
Care Coordination : DelivMeds’ dedicated pharmacy team coordinates and tracks patient adherence and safety. Pharmacists
and pharmacy technicians work together to complete patient enrollment and work with prescribers to identify potential adherence failures
and implement proactive plans to optimize treatment effectiveness.
●
Clinical
Services : DelivMeds’ pharmacists, with the assistance of its pharmacy technicians, provide clinically based drug therapy
management programs for clients and patients. These programs include new disease state counseling, adverse event monitoring, refill
check-ins, and overall MTM services. DelivMeds’ pharmacists’ work with patients’ prescribers to identify adherence
failures and to implement a proactive plan to achieve intended effectiveness. DelivMeds also provides emergency pharmacy support
services. DelivMeds’ pharmacists also provide phone, email, and chat support. In the near future, DelivMeds will begin providing
many of these services virtually, through its tele-pharmacy program to make it easier for patients to connect with clinical pharmacists
from its mobile application.
●
Patient
Compliance Programs : DelivMeds’ compliance and persistency programs support the needs of patients based on their therapy
regimen. DelivMeds facilitates screening and follow-up with high-risk patients based on concomitant medications to ensure compliance
with therapy programs. DelivMeds’ data analytics platform aggregates adherence data to identify these patients to allow for
proactive interventions to ensure adherence to therapy programs.
●
Benefits
Investigation : DelivMeds’ standard procedures require that DelivMeds conducts a benefits investigation for each patient.
In addition to verifying patient eligibility, DelivMeds screens for prior authorization status prior to adjudicating the claim and
also determine the projected deductibles, coinsurance, and out-of-pocket maximums to assist the patient with adhering to therapy
programs and/or working with the prescriber to identify alternative recommendations. DelivMeds’ specialists provide all necessary
coding for the prescribed therapy or service. Any prior authorization or predetermination requirements are defined at the time of
the benefits investigation.
●
Patient
Financial Assistance : DelivMeds’ pharmacy team, in conjunction with its partners, assists patients by navigating their
benefits and finds third-party financial assistance to address coverage deficiencies. When available, DelivMeds works with available
cash drug discount providers, manufacturer co-pay cards, co-pay payment plans, including co-pay card enrollment and program management.
DelivMeds’ team also coordinates with many external charitable foundations and research grant organizations that help subsidize
the cost of medications for patients.
●
Prior
Authorization : DelivMeds’ pharmacy team, in conjunction with its partners, assists in coordinating with the prescribing
physicians and their staff, contacts the patient’s insurance plan and collects all necessary patient specific information,
together with supporting documentation, to provide to the appropriate third party to support reimbursement for the prescribed medication.
If the required therapy is not listed on the third-party payer’s formulary, DelivMeds compiles the necessary information to
file a formulary exception on behalf of the patient. These services work to minimize prescription abandonment while simultaneously
improving outcomes and revenue optimization for provider groups and pharmaceutical manufacturing clients.
●
Data
Access & Reporting : DelivMeds’ hub platform technology is able to produce de-identified customizable reports tailored
to the requirements of each channel partner. These reports enable clients to conduct data mining on prescribing patterns, insurance
coverage, and track and trace dispositions status, among many others. DelivMeds’ technology arm has also created real-time
data dashboards for enterprise clients such as Account Care Organizations (“ACOs”), payors, and health systems.
●
AI
Driven Technology : DelivMeds’ hub platform uses artificial intelligence to facilitate a convenient and easy-to-use
pharmacy experience for users of DelivMeds’ digital pharmacy and mobile technology solutions. DelivMeds’ smart algorithm
conducts efficient routing of prescriptions to partner pharmacies based on PBM/payor contracts, pharmacy state licenses, pricing,
and other location features such as hours of operations and service level provided, thereby eliminating delays with receiving prescription
products and time to initiate therapy. DelivMeds’ application will also auto-apply discount and manufacturer copay cards based
on eligible commercial plans or cheaper cash options.
9
●
Optimized
Prescription Journey : DelivMeds’ mobile technology provides an easy button for refill reminders and processing, which
can be initiated by the dispensing pharmacy or the patient. Reminders in the form of push notifications, texts, and emails are all
configurable. Through our application and with our integrated pharmacy partners, DelivMeds’ is able to provide the end-to-end
solution, assisting with co-pay collection, providing 100% pass through to DelivMeds’ integrated partner pharmacies, and arranging
for the delivery of that medication via DelivMeds’ nationwide partnerships with Lyft and Roadie.
The
5P-Model
We
aim to provide value to all stakeholders along the continuum of healthcare delivery in what is known as its 5P-Model: Patients, Providers,
Pharmacies, Payors or PBMs and Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Companies. We believe that the combined synergies of our subsidiaries will
position us uniquely to increase patient medication adherence, improve price transparency for all stakeholders, and provide an all-around
better patient/pharmacy centric experience.
Patients
Our
core focus is on patients and our DelivMeds technology platform helps patients adhere to complex medication therapies, process refills
and manage any side effects and insurance concerns to ensure they get the best standard of care. The clinical efficacy of drug therapies,
especially for chronic conditions, is typically enhanced when patients precisely follow their prescribed treatment regimens (including
dosing and frequency). We further believe that medication non-adherence (i.e., patients not following the instructions for their medication
or failing to finish taking their medication) can contribute to a substantial worsening of disease and, in some cases, accelerated mortality,
which increases hospital and other healthcare costs. Through DelivMeds, we have established benchmarks for patients based on the Healthcare
Effectiveness Data and Information Set (“HEDIS”), National Committee for Quality Assurance, and Utilization Review Accreditation
Commission (“URAC”) standards to help patients achieve adherence rates greater than 80 – 90% based on the disease state.
We also help identify third-party funding support programs through DelivMeds to help cover expensive out-of-pocket costs.
Our
DelivMeds technology platform helps manage patients’ complex disease states through counseling and education regarding their treatment
and by providing ongoing monitoring and, in some cases, proactive follow-up contact to encourage patient adherence to their prescribed
therapy. The goal of DelivMeds’ patient care programs is to provide clinical services in a caring and supportive environment, optimize
medication adherence, prevent disease progression and improve therapeutic effectiveness. To accomplish this, we, through DelivMeds, focus
on each patient and provide solutions related to medication access, tolerance and adherence. Further, DelivMeds’ digital pharmacy
concept with mobile technology is able to provide these additional benefits:
●
Autonomy :
Patients will be able to select the pharmacy of their choice based on a proprietary algorithm that factors numerous variables and
data points for “smart” selection.
●
Convenience :
The ability to receive medication via same-day delivery, mail order and or pick up options. Patients do not need to wait in long
lines or waste time. They have a plethora of network pharmacies to choose from.
●
Transparency :
Easy to use application that provides streamlined information and fair market value pricing for services rendered.
●
Cost
Savings : Competitive pricing with options to process via insurance, cash and or with a drug discount card.
●
Clinical
Value : A complete arsenal of clinical services bundled with the application from telehealth, tele-pharmacy, Rx interaction reports,
basic disease and drug information and refill reminder programs.
10
Providers
Our
team will work with provider offices, groups, and ACOs to manage prior-authorization and other managed care organization requirements,
such as the denial and appeal process, to ensure that complicated administrative tasks do not impair the delivery of quality patient
care. Our focus on “specialty-lite” and general maintenance conditions will enable us to develop strong relationships with
clinical experts and thought leaders in key therapeutic categories. We will leverage these relationships to gain greater visibility into
future drug launches and to stay current on the latest advances in patient care.
We
will assist prescribers with personalized and intensive patient support by providing care management related to their patients’
pharmacy needs and improving patient adherence to therapy protocols. We hope to eliminate the need for physicians to carry inventories
of high-cost prescriptions by distributing medications directly to patients’ homes via the DelivMeds network of independent partner
pharmacies. We will also assist providers and their clinical and non-clinical staff members by performing many of the administratively
intensive tasks associated with benefits investigations, prior authorizations, and other reimbursement-related matters. Further, we will
assist physicians by helping their patients manage the side effects of their therapies and by monitoring adherence. We also will deliver
clinical updates in the form of reporting. These reports will be tailored to each organization’s requests by our data analytics
team. These physicians will provide clinical updates and assist with managing the pipeline of potential new therapies. our custom de-identified
reports will shed light on patients that enroll into patient compliance programs and also provide keen insights on engagements and or
interventions made. Our goal is to improve the renumeration potential for these providers by boosting medication adherence and improving
their HEDIS scores. Further, our digital pharmacy concept with mobile technology will be able to provide these additional benefits:
●
Reporting :
Providers too often are disconnected with patients once they leave the practice. Prescriptions can be stopped months before the next
office visit, adverse reactions or side effect develop or the medication is transferred to another pharmacy without provider knowledge.
●
Adherence :
Reports demonstrate compliance or adherence issues that can alert providers to become engaged sooner rather than later. The solution
we are developing will enable providers to receive data on an easy to use and customizable dashboard that will allow providers to
tweak variables associated to adherence.
●
HEDIS :
HEDIS is one of health care’s most widely used performance improvement tools. Providers are often reimbursed based on their
performance in managing patients. The combination of clinical and concierge services help improve adherence to therapy which in turn
boosts HEDIS scores for providers.
●
Convenience :
An all-in-one solution that provides an integrated healthcare ecosystem that revolves around the patient. Instead of sending prescriptions
to multiple pharmacies, providers can select one pharmacy which empowers the patient to pick and choose what variables are important
to them for dispensing.
●
Efficiency :
DelivMeds assists patients with locating the best option for their needs while also coordinating benefits such as prior authorizations,
applying manufacturing copay cards, analyzing formularies, etc.
Pharmacies
Wellgistics
Pharmacy acts as a digital non-dispensing pharmacy with the primary goal of routing prescriptions to an independent partner pharmacy
based on, for example, patient preference, pharmacy capability, and access to prescription drugs. In the event that a patient elects
mail order service delivery, we intend to use the back-end pharmacy to fulfill the prescription for the patient. Our relationship with
our network of independent pharmacies is expected to help grow their business organically by transmitting prescriptions that we will
be able to adjudicate without disrupting pharmacy workflow and causing undue delay to patients. Our networks will be broken down into
the following categories:
●
Integrated
Network : in-network independent pharmacies utilizing Best Rx as their PMS system where our hub technology platform will be able
to electronically transfer prescriptions due to the integrations with the software.
●
Soft
Network : in-network independent pharmacies that are not integrated and receive prescriptions transfer via facsimile transmission.
This capability will enable us to onboard any of the independent pharmacies in the U.S.
11
●
Retail
Network : out of network pharmacies that have not onboarded with DelivMeds. Patients reserve the right to have their prescription
sent to any of the 65,000+ pharmacies in the U.S. However, they will be unable to manage the prescription via DelivMeds mobile technology.
●
Mail
Order Network : Wellgistics Pharmacy will serve as our in-network independent pharmacy when patients elect to receive their prescriptions
via mail.
Our
management believes DelivMeds’ digital pharmacy concept with hub services will be able to provide the following benefits to partner
pharmacies who join the DelivMeds’ network:
●
Streamlined
Workflow : A key differentiator when compared to other applications or programs claiming to have similar capabilities as DelivMeds
is workflow system integration. DelivMeds integrates with pharmacies’ PMS systems in conjunction with workflow processes to
provide an interoperable solution, resolves PAs before the prescription is sent to pharmacy, provides copay collection which is 100%
pass through and coordinating the order delivery;
●
Increased
Revenue : Participation in the network will enable pharmacies to receive additional prescriptions outside of their normal patient
base. An increase in prescription count will lead to an increase in revenue. Many of the services provided by DelivMeds also eliminate
overhead expenses through automation and patient engagement via the app;
●
Larger
Patient Diversification : Opportunity to scale and reach more patients that may not have heard of the pharmacy. Through the proprietary
“smart” pharmacy algorithm, pharmacies are presented to patients based off of their merit and services rendered; and
●
Additional
Renumeration Opportunities : Every prescription dispensed through the network partners will have an opportunity to engage in clinical
education services via tele-pharmacy. These consultations provide a unique renumeration opportunity to bill for clinical services
with our easy-to-use technology.
Pharmaceutical
Manufacturing Companies
We
expect that we will be able to provide pharmaceutical manufacturers with a strong distribution channel for existing pharmaceutical products
through the coverage and clinical expertise of Wellgistics LLC’s main distribution facility in Lakeland, Florida and supporting
regional locations. In many cases, our national presence and patient centric care model will be critical to becoming a selected partner
in the launch of new products. When providing new products to patients, implementing a monitoring program through DelivMeds to promote
adherence to the prescribed therapy, and subsequently aggregating valuable clinical information on behalf of the manufacturer can significantly
aid in pharmaceutical manufacturers’ evaluations of product efficacy and general market access. DelivMeds receives fees, which
we will record as revenue, from certain pharmaceutical manufacturers in return for providing them with a reliable hub pharmacy network
and the associated data in the form of reporting or a real-time data analytics dashboard, among other services.
DelivMeds
offers specialized and highly customized prescription programs for pharmaceutical companies to help them optimize, encourage, and track
patient adherence, which helps drive the clinical and commercial success of “specialty-lite” and other drug products. Through
DelivMeds’ customer engagement call center, DelivMeds promotes educational, sales, and marketing-related services to help pharmaceutical
manufacturers cultivate channel strategies as part of their commercial launch preparation, specifically with pharmacy buyers. DelivMeds
further provides pharmaceutical manufacturers with an established distribution channel for their existing pharmaceuticals and their new
product launches. In some cases, DelivMeds believes that these engagements have led to exclusive rights to administer the products of
these pharmaceutical companies or a trial period of exclusivity. The adherence rates that result from the patient-centered services directly
benefit pharmaceutical manufacturers through clinically appropriate continuity of care of patients that utilize their products who might
otherwise have not achieved full benefit from, or failed to achieve the benefit from, their prescribed therapies. In addition, the financial
assistance and reimbursement management DelivMeds provides to patients from the digital pharmacy division acts further to drive pharmaceutical
sales.
Pharmaceutical
manufacturers frequently seek patient data on the efficacy and utilization of their products, which DelivMeds provides in a de-identified
format compliant with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”). These data provide valuable
drug level and clinical information in the form of effectiveness and adherence data to manufacturers to aid in their evaluation of product
safety and efficacy. DelivMeds continues to make significant investments in technological upgrades that will enable Wellgistics Health
to better provide such analytical services.
12
We
intend to actively monitor the drug pipeline and maintain dialogue with a significant number of biotechnology and pharmaceutical manufacturers
to identify opportunities in pre- and peri-commercial stages of drug development. We believe that limited distribution has become the
delivery system of choice for many drug manufacturers because it is conducive to smaller patient populations, facilitates high patient
engagement, provides clinical expertise, and elevates focus on service, managing drug supply, real world utilization and patient specific
product experience. We also believe the trend toward limited distribution of specialty drugs will continue to expand, making strong representation
in this area essential. The DelivMeds digital pharmacy concept with hub services can provide these additional benefits to partner pharmacies
who join DelivMeds’ network:
●
Reporting :
One of the main components that demonstrates value for manufacturers is reporting metrics. DelivMeds is able to provide customized
reporting on a granular level from its centralized database of pharmacies within the network. This in turn drives value across the
supply chain as DelivMeds uses these rebates or subsidies to drive down costs in other areas for patients, creating a holistic value-based
system.
●
Compliance :
Provider and pharmacy compliance through patient engagement within the app enables DelivMeds to ensure there are no gaps in therapy
by executing and implementing refill reminder programs, working with providers on prior authorizations, automating refill requests,
applying copay assistance programs, etc. Tied to prescription adherence, most patients discontinue therapy within the first couple
of weeks of starting a regimen. By creating concierge services powered by retail pharmacists through our technology platform, DelivMeds
provides pharmacists with an opportunity to get involved and make impacts before a patient discontinues therapy. In the event the
retail pharmacist cannot assist, DelivMeds utilizes its network of clinical pharmacists to resolve patient concerns or potential
red flags triggered by our application.
●
Wholesale
Operations : Through its wholesale operations, Wellgistics LLC is able to provide pharma companies with the ability to leverage
Wellgistics LLC’s distribution network of over 5,000 participating pharmacies and serve as a single point for contracting.
Wellgistics LLC is able to handle the ordering and returns associated with product purchases while also working with the pharmacies
on fee collection and billing cycles. The ability to eliminate charge backs and effectively conduct revenue cycle management due
to our cash flow serves as a win-win strategy for all.
●
Third-Party
Logistics Provider : Wellgistics LLC’s warehouse operations can assist new manufacturers with the ability to pick, pack,
and ship orders with Wellgistics LLC’s multi-state distribution centers. This removes added operational costs with setting
up services in house along with the multitude of operational and administrative costs.
●
Integrated
Pharmacy Network with Key Performance Indicators: DelivMeds has a robust network of pharmacy providers that span traditional
enterprise, regional enterprise, and independent pharmacies via Integral platform and mail order options that are multi-state licensed.
Within this vast network, DelivMeds has carved out a preferred network that is continuously evaluated on key performance indicators
such as prescription adherence, refill percentage, prior authorization success, prescription turnaround therapy and prescription
days covered. These performance indicators are benchmarks for several national accrediting bodies in pharmacy and are used as the
gold standard in selecting pharmacies to have preferred distribution channels for manufacturer direct relationships.
Payors
& Pharmacy Benefit Managers
The
last component of the 5P-Model consists of payors and PBMs. With the increasing trend of vertical integration in healthcare, the industry
is seeing more alignment across payors, PBMs, pharmacies, specialty pharmacy, digital health, primary care, and in home medical services.
The notable acquisitions in the payor and PBM space include CVS/Caremark and Aetna, United Healthcare and Optum Rx, and Cigna and Express
Scripts. Many of the other PBMs have similar relationships including Prime Therapeutics and Blue Cross Blue Shield, Humana and DST Solutions,
and the recent acquisitions made by Anthem.
13
With
healthcare systems shifting from fee-for-service to value-based care, these companies are looking for strategic acquisitions or partnerships
to taper the rising cost of healthcare. Self-funded organizations are on the rise and added government and regulatory pressure on the
PBM industry as a whole is priming this market to re-evaluate antiquated business models and foster an environment with better pricing
transparency. Managed care models such as per member per month with revenue sharing on savings has become largely popular in the healthcare
space. Although we currently are not servicing a payor or PBM today, we see this as an opportunity to penetrate this market based on
synergistic services aimed at controlling high drug spend and improving patient outcomes. Further, our management believes that DelivMeds’
digital pharmacy concept with mobile technology is able to provide payors and PBMs with aggregate data to provide these additional benefits:
●
Compliance
(Programs) : Enrolling patients into loyalty programs that rewards them for adherence to therapies, participation or patient engagement
in clinical education programs that directly impact patient behavior and refill reminder programs to alert patients to stay on top
of medication management.
●
Compliance
(Therapy) : Programs with healthcare professionals spanning from Board-Certified Medical Providers for telehealth services to
Clinical Pharmacists for tele-pharmacy services such as initial prescription counseling, monitoring side effects, adverse drug event
reporting and MTMs.
●
Compliance
(Costs) : Providing patients with cash-alternative options to supplement the expenses of insurance-based services. For payor’s
lacking an integrated PBM, DelivMeds can serve as an integrated healthcare ecosystem providing mail order service, an integrated
pharmacy network, and wholesale prescription acquisition pricing.
●
Compliance
(Transportation) : A well-known barrier to patient adherence for medical visits and prescription therapy is transportation impediments.
DelivMeds solves this issue for patients by working with national delivery partners and getting meds to the doors of patients.
●
Reducing
Expenses : Through the various synergistic clinical programs, DelivMeds plays a direct role in improving patient outcomes which
aid payors and PBM’s in reducing long-term costs associated with nonadherence such as hospitalizations and procedures.

growth companies or smaller reporting companies, Wellgistics Health’s securities may be less attractive to investors and, therefore,
may make it more difficult to compare Wellgistics Health’s performance with other public companies.

Risk
Factors
Risks
Related to Our Business
Our
limited operating history as a combined company and our evolving business make it difficult to evaluate our current business and future
prospects and increase the risk of your investment.
We
were incorporated in 2022 for the purpose of acquiring and integrating various companies in the health care industry. Our limited operating
history and rapidly evolving business make it difficult to evaluate our current business, future prospects and plan for growth. We will
continue to encounter significant risks and uncertainties frequently experienced by growing companies in rapidly changing and heavily
regulated industries, such as attracting new customers to our products and services; retaining customers and encouraging them to utilize
new products and services that we make available; competition from other companies; hiring, integrating, training and retaining skilled
personnel; developing new solutions; determining prices for our solutions; unforeseen expenses; challenges in forecasting accuracy; and
new or adverse regulatory developments affecting aspects of the aerospace and defense industry. Further, because we depend, in part,
on market acceptance of our newer and future products and services, it is difficult to evaluate trends that may affect our business and
whether our expansion will be profitable. If we have difficulty launching new products or services, then our reputation may be harmed
and our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected. If our assumptions regarding these and other
similar risks and uncertainties that relate to our business, which we use to plan our business, are incorrect or change as we gain more
experience operating as a combined company, or if we do not address these challenges successfully, our operating and financial results
could differ materially from our expectations and our business could suffer.

Wellgistics
Health may experience difficulties in integrating the operations of Wellgistics LLC and Wood Sage thereby hindering Wellgistics Health
from realizing the expected benefits of these transactions.
Wellgistics
Health’s success depends on Wellgistics Health’s ability to realize the anticipated benefits of combining the operations
of the Wellgistics LLC and Wood Sage with Wellgistics Health in an efficient and effective manner. The integration process could take
longer than anticipated and could result in the loss of key employees from either of Wood Sage or Wellgistics LLC, the disruption of
each company’s ongoing businesses, tax costs or inefficiencies, or inconsistencies in standards, controls, information technology
systems, procedures and policies, any of which could adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s ability to continue relationships with
the Wood Sage’s or Wellgistics LLC’s’ customers, employees or other third parties, or Wellgistics Health’s ability
to achieve the anticipated benefits of the Wood Sage Acquisition and Wellgistics Acquisition and could harm Wellgistics Health’s
financial performance. If Wellgistics Health is unable to successfully or timely integrate the operations of the Wood Sage or Wellgistics
LLC with its business, Wellgistics Health may incur unanticipated liabilities and be unable to realize the revenue growth, operating
efficiencies, synergies and other anticipated benefits resulting from such transactions and Wellgistics Health’s business, results
of operations, and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.
Reductions
in third-party reimbursement levels, from private or governmental agency plans, and potential changes in industry pricing benchmarks
for prescription drugs could materially and adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s results of operations.
The
substantial majority of the prescriptions Wellgistics Health will fill at Wellgistics Health’s Wellgistics Pharmacy division will
be reimbursed by third-party payers, including private and governmental agency payers. The continued efforts of health maintenance organizations,
managed care organizations, PBM companies, governmental agencies, and other third-party payers to reduce prescription drug costs and
pharmacy reimbursement rates, as well as litigation and other legal proceedings relating to how drugs are priced, may adversely impact
Wellgistics Health’s results of operations. In the U.S., plan changes with rate adjustments often occur in January and July and
Wellgistics Health’s reimbursement arrangements may provide for rate adjustments at prescribed intervals during their term. In
addition, the timing and amount of periodic contractual reconciliations payments can vary significantly and may not follow a predictable
path. Further, in an environment where some PBM clients utilize narrow or restricted pharmacy provider networks, some of these entities
may offer pricing terms that Wellgistics Health may not be willing to accept or otherwise restrict Wellgistics Health’s participation
in their networks of pharmacy providers. This may also impact the ability for Wellgistics Health’s pharmacy network partners to
adjudicate certain prescription claims received via transfer from the DelivMeds hub platform technology which may impact several revenue
generating channels in the form of technology-related fees. Further, Wellgistics Health’s wholesale operations may be impacted
as pharmacy coverage/ margin is diminished on certain products effecting the ability to carry and move this inventory thereby affecting
buying patterns.
In
addition, many payers in the U.S. are increasingly considering new metrics as the basis for reimbursement rates. It is possible that
the pharmaceutical industry or regulators may evaluate and/or develop an alternative pricing reference to replace wholesale acquisition
price (WAC) and average wholesale price (AWP), which will be the pricing reference used for Wellgistics Health’s pharmacy and network
partner pharmacies contracts. This will also have a direct impact on Wellgistics Health’s secondary wholesalers sourcing and procurement
strategies. Future changes to the pricing benchmarks used to establish pharmaceutical pricing, including changes in the basis for calculating
reimbursement by third-party payers, could adversely affect Wellgistics Health.
18
A
shift in pharmacy mix toward lower margin plans, margin compression on branded medications, increased offering of specialty products,
DIR fees, mail order pharmacy steering, and programs could adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s results of operations.
Wellgistics
Health’s Wellgistics Pharmacy division and network of independent partner pharmacies will seek to grow prescription volume while
operating in a marketplace with continuous reimbursement pressure. A shift in the mix of pharmacy prescription volume towards programs
offering lower reimbursement rates could adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s results of operations both from an in-house prescription
fulfillment perspective and also technology and transactional fees from Wellgistics Health’s network of independent partner pharmacies.
General trends Wellgistics Health may observe impacting independent pharmacies include but are not limited to: a shift in pharmacy mix
towards 90-day fills which are often reimbursed at lower amounts compared to 30-day fills, DIR fees from PBMs on Medicare Part D prescriptions
often leading to negative reimbursements, lower plan paid amounts for branded and specialty medications while simultaneously observing
an increase in the number of patients requiring a “specialty-lite” or full specialty medication, narrow networks with unfavorable
contract pricing, delivery and shipping-related restrictions impacting the pharmacies ability to gain additional market share, enhanced
PBM tactics to steer patients to mail order pharmacies thereby reducing market opportunities, and little to no remuneration for in-demand
consumer-driven concierge services from pharmacists. Wellgistics Health’s pharmacy division retains access to all major plans with
as expected market competitive reimbursement rates for an independent pharmacy. In-network coverage for PBMs and payors at the independent
network partner pharmacy level will vary from store-to-store and Wellgistics Health continue to add more network participants to provide
robust coverage.
If
Wellgistics Health is not able to generate prescription volume and other business from patients participating in these programs that
is sufficient to offset the impact of lower reimbursement, or if the degree or terms of Wellgistics Health’s participation in such
preferred networks declines in future years, Wellgistics Health’s results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
Furthermore, changes in political, economic, and regulatory influences, as well as industry-wide changes in business practices, including
with respect to the imposition of DIR fees by PBMs, may significantly affect Wellgistics Health’s business. Wellgistics Health’s
failure to successfully anticipate and respond to, or appropriately adapt to, evolving industry conditions or any of these changes or
trends, none of which are within Wellgistics Health’s control, in a timely and effective manner could have a significant negative
impact on Wellgistics Health’s competitive position and materially adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s business, financial
condition and results of operations.
Wellgistics
Health will derive a portion of its sales from prescription drug sales reimbursed by PBM companies and Wellgistics Health’s participation
in the pharmacy provider networks of these companies may be restricted or terminated.
Wellgistics
Health will derive a portion of Wellgistics Health’s sales from prescription drug sales reimbursed through prescription drug plans
administered by PBM companies. PBM companies typically administer multiple prescription drug plans that expire at various times and provide
for varying reimbursement rates, and often limit coverage to specific drug products on an approved list, known as a formulary, which
might not include all of the approved drugs for a particular indication. Changes in pricing and other terms of Wellgistics Health’s
contracts with PBM companies can significantly impact Wellgistics Health’s results of operations. There can be no assurance that
Wellgistics Health will participate in any particular PBM company’s pharmacy provider network in any particular future time period
or on terms reasonably acceptable to Wellgistics Health. If Wellgistics Health’s participation in the pharmacy provider network
for a prescription drug plan administered by one or more of the large PBM companies is restricted or terminated, Wellgistics Health expects
that Wellgistics Health’s sales would be adversely affected, at least in the short-term. If Wellgistics Health is unable to replace
any such lost sales, either through an increase in other sales or through a resumption of participation in those plans, Wellgistics Health’s
operating results could be materially and adversely affected. If Wellgistics Health exits a pharmacy provider network and later resumes
participation, there can be no assurance that Wellgistics Health will achieve any particular level of business on any particular pace,
or that all clients of the PBM company will choose to include us again in the pharmacy network for their plans, initially or at all.
In addition, in such circumstances Wellgistics Health may incur increased marketing and other costs in connection with initiatives to
regain former patients and attract new patients covered by such plans. .
19
Wellgistics
Health could be adversely affected by a decrease in the introduction of new brand name and generic prescription drugs as well as increases
in the cost to procure prescription drugs.
The
profitability of Wellgistics Health’s healthcare ecosystem business model depends upon the utilization of prescription drugs. Utilization
trends are affected by, among other factors, the introduction of new and successful prescription drugs, coverage on payor/PBM formularies,
as well as lower-priced generic alternatives to existing brand name drugs. Inflation in the price of drugs also can adversely affect
utilization, particularly given the increased prevalence of high-deductible health insurance plans and related plan design changes. New
brand name drugs with coverage on formularies can result in increased drug utilization and associated sales, while the introduction of
lower priced generic alternatives typically results in relatively lower sales, but relatively higher gross profit margins.
In
addition, if Wellgistics Health experiences an increase in the amounts it pays to procure pharmaceutical drugs, including generic drugs,
Wellgistics Health’s gross profit margins would be adversely affected to the extent Wellgistics Health is not able to offset such
cost increases. Any failure to fully offset any such increased prices and costs or to modify Wellgistics Health’s activities to
mitigate the impact could have a material adverse effect on Wellgistics Health’s results of operations. Also, any future changes
in drug prices could be significantly different than Wellgistics Health’s expectations.
A
2019 study performed by NACDS entitled “Cost of Dispensing Study” found that the overall cost of dispensing for all drugs
was $12.40 per fill. After factoring inflation, that same cost is estimated to be $14.68 per fill. The latter does not account for other
costs associated with medication dispensing noted in this “Risk Factors” section which clearly demonstrates further strain
to gross profit margin on prescription-related fills.
Accordingly,
a decrease in the number or magnitude of significant new brand name drugs or generics successfully introduced, delays in their introduction,
a decrease in the utilization of previously introduced prescription drugs, and or rising costs associated with medication dispensing
could materially and adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
Consolidation
and strategic alliances in the healthcare industry could adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s business operations, competitive
positioning, financial condition and results of operations.
Many
organizations in the healthcare industry, including PBM companies, have consolidated in recent years to create larger healthcare enterprises
with greater bargaining power, which has resulted in greater pricing pressures. If this consolidation trend continues, it could give
the resulting enterprises even greater bargaining power, which may lead to further pressure on the prices for Wellgistics Health’s
products and services. If these pressures result in reductions in Wellgistics Health’s prices, Wellgistics Health’s businesses
would become less profitable unless Wellgistics Health are able to achieve corresponding reductions in costs or develop profitable new
revenue streams.
Changes
in economic conditions could adversely affect consumer/client buying practices and market adoption of Wellgistics Health’s DelivMeds
mobile application and the accompanying revenues to premium access/services.
Wellgistics
Health’s performance may be adversely impacted by changes in global, national, regional or local economic conditions and consumer
confidence. These conditions can also adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s key vendors and customers. External factors that affect
consumer confidence and over which Wellgistics Health exercises no influence include unemployment rates, inflation, levels of personal
disposable income, levels of taxes and interest and global, national, regional or local economic conditions, health epidemics or pandemics.
For example, COVID-19 exposes Wellgistics Health to the risks of continued impact of global supply chain disruptions, and the uncertain
economic and geopolitical environment, as well as looting, vandalism, acts of war or terrorism. Changes in economic conditions and consumer
confidence could adversely affect consumer preferences, purchasing power and spending patterns, which could lead to a decrease in overall
consumer spending as well as in prescription drug, services, and digital health services utilization and which could be exacerbated by
the increasing prevalence of high-deductible health insurance plans and related plan design changes. From a client perspective, increasing
pressures from margin compression, prescription pricing negotiations, and other known stressors as outlined in this “ Risk Factors ”
section may negatively impact a manufacturer’s willingness to adopt and utilize various a-la-carte services Wellgistics Health
will provide through Wellgistics Health’s hub platform and clinical services. Further threats from market competitors to offer
additional products at promotional pricing could lead to lower pricing floors as well.
20
Inflationary
pressures could have a material impact on Wellgistics Health’s business and operations.
Wellgistics
Health will be subject to risk of specific inflationary pressures on product prices and its impact on consumer spending. For example,
increases in prescription drug costs could impact consumers ability to afford initial or on-going therapy. Wellgistics Health’s
focus on the relatively expensive specialty lite business segment (i.e., $500 - $3,000 therapies) could be particularly impacted by increasing
costs. Additionally, consumer discretionary funds could be reduced, impacting the ability to pay for digital services and subscription
models that Wellgistics Health offers. If inflation continues to increase, sourcing and procuring specialty lite products may prove to
be capital intensive. Wellgistics Health may not be able to adjust prices sufficiently to offset the effect without negatively impacting
consumer demand or Wellgistics Health’s gross margin. All of these inflationary risk factors could materially and adversely impact
Wellgistics Health’s business operations, financial condition and results of operations.
The
industries in which Wellgistics Health will operate are highly competitive and constantly evolving and changes in market dynamics could
adversely impact us.
The
level of competition in the pharmacy (i.e., retail, independent, specialty, and digital), healthcare and clinical concierge like services,
and pharmaceutical wholesale industries is high. Changes in market dynamics or actions of competitors or manufacturers, including industry
consolidation and the emergence of new competitors and strategic alliances, could materially and adversely impact us. Disruptive innovation,
or the perception of potentially disruptive innovation, by existing or new competitors could alter the competitive landscape in the future
and require us to accurately identify and assess such changes and if required make timely and effective changes to Wellgistics Health’s
strategies and business model to compete effectively.
All
of Wellgistics Health’s businesses will face intense competition from multiple existing and new businesses, some of which are aggressively
expanding in markets Wellgistics Health will serve. Wellgistics Health will develop Wellgistics Health’s offerings to respond to
market dynamics; however, if Wellgistics Health’s customers are not receptive to these changes, if Wellgistics Health is unable
to expand successful programs in a timely manner, or Wellgistics Health otherwise does not effectively respond to changes in market dynamics,
Wellgistics Health’s businesses and financial performance could be materially and adversely affected.
There
are a significant number of competitors that provide one or more comprehensive services, including distribution, with respect to specialty
pharmacy drugs, hub and clinical services to perform patient financial assistance; prior authorization coordination; copay tiered reductions;
tele-pharmacy; and access to digital health resources, some of whom have greater resources than Wellgistics Health does, including: PBMs;
retail pharmacy chains and independent retail pharmacies; digital pharmacies; national, regional and niche specialty pharmacies; home
and specialty infusion therapy companies; provider practices and systems; and GPOs.
The
leading payors and drug chains have completed extensive mergers and acquisitions transactions and business combinations, and, therefore,
have significantly greater market share, resources and purchasing power than Wellgistics Health does and, in the aggregate, these competitors
generally have access to substantially the same limited distribution drugs that will be in Wellgistics Health’s portfolio. These
companies also benefit from their acquisition activity with healthcare organizations, as Wellgistics Health has seen recent acquisitions
in the home healthcare and primary care services arena (i.e., One Medical, Signify Health, Village MD, Summit Health, CareCentrix, among
others).
Digital
pharmacies both national and regional have been increasingly entering the market over the course of the last decade with well-known players
such as Roman, Lemonaid Health, ForHims, TruePill, and Amazon’s acquisition of PillPack. At the regional level, Wellgistics Health
has seen the emergence of companies like Capsule, Alto, and many others outlined below looking to penetrate markets and gain access to
lives by looking for additional points of differentiation. The competitive healthcare landscape along with macroeconomic pressures has
also seen increased chapter 11 filings for bankruptcy and or other means of dissolution including Medley, NowRx, AmazonCare, Haven (i.e.,
joint venture of Amazon, Berkshire Hathaway, and JPMorgan Chase) over recent years. Many of these companies leverage access to telehealth
services and backend partnerships with mail order pharmacies to provide consumers with cash-paying models for access to niche services.
The evolution of centralized digital patient support networks with network pharmacies has also recently been gaining steam.
As
Wellgistics Health will increase in scale and market share, or provide additional healthcare services, Wellgistics Health expects more
direct competition for certain drugs, payer and patient access, and services from this myriad of companies. These factors together with
the impact of the competitive marketplace or other significant differentiating factors between us and Wellgistics Health’s competitors
may make it difficult to gain market access and penetration all of which could materially and adversely impact Wellgistics Health’s
business operations, financial condition and results of operations.
21
If
Wellgistics Health does not successfully create and implement relevant omni-channel experiences for Wellgistics Health’s customers,
Wellgistics Health’s businesses and results of operations could be adversely impacted.
The
portion of total consumer expenditures from various business sectors completing online shopping has drastically changed over the last
two decades. Wellgistics Health is seeing a complete paradigm shift, as consumer sentiment and behavior has moved towards mobile application
use. The COVID-19 pandemic was the accelerant, and Wellgistics Health expects this pace of increase exponentially. Consumers are now
able to have more have more and more services delivered to their homes or work and more recently Wellgistics Health is seeing this same
push with healthcare services. Moreover, prescription related deliveries have become the new normal versus waiting for pharmacy pick-up
which is often not as efficient or convenient for this everchanging mindset and expectation of the consumer.
In
order to be successful with executing on this service delivery, Wellgistics Health’s strategy must offer enhanced value services
while also being convenient to the consumer. To accomplish this, an omni-channel approach, intelligent user experience, and home health
differentiated model is a necessity to keep up with the rapidly evolving pace of changing customer expectations and new developments
by Wellgistics Health’s competitors. Wellgistics Health must compete by offering a consistent and convenient shopping experience
for Wellgistics Health’s customers regardless of the ultimate sales channel and by investing in, providing and maintaining digital
tools for Wellgistics Health’s customers. If Wellgistics Health is unable to make, improve, or develop relevant customer-facing
technology in a timely manner that keeps pace with technological developments and dynamic customer expectations, Wellgistics Health’s
ability to compete and Wellgistics Health’s results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, if Wellgistics
Health’s online activities or Wellgistics Health’s other customer-facing technology systems do not function as designed,
Wellgistics Health may experience a loss of customer confidence, data security breaches, lost sales, or be exposed to fraudulent purchases,
any of which could materially and adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s business operations, reputation and results of operations.
Wellgistics
Health may be unable to achieve Wellgistics Health’s environmental, social and governance goals.
Wellgistics
Health recognizes the rising importance of environmental, social, and governance matters among Wellgistics Health’s team members,
customers, and certain stockholders and will be committed to upholding a culture dedicated to corporate responsibility. Wellgistics Health
will establish certain goals that allow us to better communicate and align to Wellgistics Health’s environmental, social, and governance
strategy. However, these goals are subject to risks and uncertainties, which are outside of Wellgistics Health’s control and might
prohibit us from meeting the goals.
Further,
there is a risk that team members, customers, or certain stockholders might not be satisfied with Wellgistics Health’s goals or
strategy and efforts to meet the goals. Some of the risks that Wellgistics Health will be subject to include, but are not limited to:
Wellgistics Health’s ability to execute Wellgistics Health’s operational strategy within the timeframe or costs projected;
the availability or cost of renewable energy, materials, goods, and/or services required, and evolving regulations or requirements that
change or limit Wellgistics Health’s ability to set standards or gather information from Wellgistics Health’s supplier partners
or third party contractors. Failure to meet Wellgistics Health’s goals could negatively impact public perception of Wellgistics
Health’s company with interested stakeholders.
Environmental,
social, and governance matters are also increasingly important to current and potential employees. In order to retain and attract talent
Wellgistics Health knows that it is critical that Wellgistics Health clearly communicate Wellgistics Health’s environmental, social,
and governance strategy, and a delay or inability to meet Wellgistics Health’s goals on time could impact Wellgistics Health’s
reputation as a desirable place to work. With increased interest from certain stockholders, an inability to meet Wellgistics Health’s
goals could also have a negative impact on Wellgistics Health’s stock price. These impacts could make it more difficult for us
to operate efficiently and effectively and could have a negative effect on Wellgistics Health’s business, operating results and
financial conditions.
22
Wellgistics
Health’s business results will depend on Wellgistics Health’s ability to successfully manage ongoing organizational change
and business transformation and achieve cost savings and operating efficiency initiatives through Wellgistics Health’s healthcare
ecosystem.
The
key to Wellgistics Health’s success will be executing on Wellgistics Health’s win-win strategy for all stakeholders in the
healthcare delivery model. Through leveraging Wellgistics Health’s portfolio of subsidiaries, Wellgistics Health’s leadership
will need to deliver on a value proposition to patients, pharmacies, providers, payors/ PBMs, and pharmaceutical manufacturers. This
is obtained by making healthcare services affordable and convenient in a centralized model. Wellgistics Health’s success will hinge
on the Wellgistics Health’s leadership team to improve operational efficiency, decreasing costs, market access and insights, data
transparency, value-based outcomes, and innovative technology via automation.
There
can be no assurance that Wellgistics Health will realize, in full or in part, the anticipated benefits of leveraging these subsidiaries
and what that market adoption will be like. Wellgistics Health’s financial goals assume a level of productivity improvement and
other business optimization initiatives. If Wellgistics Health is unable to implement the programs or deliver these expected productivity
improvements, while continuing to invest in business growth, or if the volume and nature of change overwhelms available resources, Wellgistics
Health’s business operations, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely impacted.
Our
common stock is subject to a Nasdaq minimum bid price deficiency notice, and failure to regain compliance could result in the delisting
of our common stock from The Nasdaq Capital Market.
On
December 10, 2025, we received a deficiency letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Staff notifying us that the closing bid price
of our common stock had fallen below the minimum $1.00 per share required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market pursuant
to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for the 30 consecutive business day period between October 27, 2025 and December 9, 2025. We were granted
an initial compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until June 8, 2026, to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule.
To
regain compliance, the closing bid price of our common stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business
days prior to June 8, 2026. If we do not regain compliance within the initial compliance period, we may be eligible for an additional
180-day compliance period, provided we meet all applicable continued listing requirements and notify Nasdaq of our intention to cure
the deficiency, including through a reverse stock split if necessary. If we are unable to regain compliance during any applicable compliance
period, our common stock will be subject to delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market, at which point we may appeal the delisting determination
to a Nasdaq hearings panel.
A
delisting of our common stock from The Nasdaq Capital Market could have significant adverse consequences, including:
● a
reduction in the liquidity and market price of our common stock;
● a
limited availability of market quotations for our common stock;
● a
reduced level of trading activity in the secondary market for our common stock;
● a
diminished ability to raise additional capital through equity offerings on favorable terms,
or at all;
● a
potential loss of confidence by customers, suppliers, employees, and business partners; and
● potential
difficulties in retaining or attracting key personnel.
If
our common stock were delisted, it may be traded on the OTC Markets or another over-the-counter trading platform, which could further
reduce liquidity and investor confidence. There can be no assurance that we will regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule, that we will
remain eligible for any additional compliance period, or that we will maintain compliance with any other Nasdaq continued listing requirements.
The outcome of any appeal to a Nasdaq hearings panel, if necessary, is uncertain.
We are involved in litigation
with former management relating to equity awards, and the outcome of this matter could adversely affect our financial condition.
We have initiated litigation
against certain former members of management seeking, among other things, rescission and cancellation of certain equity awards and related
arrangements. As of December 31, 2025, obligations associated with these arrangements are reflected as liabilities on our balance sheet
in the aggregate amount of approximately $[17.5 million].
Litigation is inherently uncertain,
and we cannot predict the outcome or timing of this matter. If we are unsuccessful, we may be required to satisfy these obligations, which
could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations. In addition, the litigation process
may result in significant legal expenses and diversion of management’s attention.
Although a favorable outcome could
result in the reversal of all or a portion of these liabilities, no assurance can be given that we will prevail.
23
Risks
Relating to Wellgistics Health’s Operations
Disruption
in Wellgistics Health’s global supply chain could negatively impact Wellgistics Health’s businesses.
The
pharmaceutical products for Wellgistics Health’s wholesale division are sourced from pharmaceutical manufacturers with a wide variety
of domestic and international vendors, and any future disruption in Wellgistics Health’s supply chain or inability to find qualified
vendors and access products that meet requisite quality and safety standards in a timely and efficient manner could adversely impact
Wellgistics Health’s businesses. The loss or disruption of such supply arrangements for any reason, including for issues such as
COVID-19 or other health epidemics or pandemics, labor disputes, loss or impairment of key manufacturing sites, inability to procure
sufficient raw materials, quality control issues, ethical sourcing issues, a supplier’s financial distress, natural disasters,
looting, vandalism or acts of war (such as the conflict in Ukraine) or terrorism, trade sanctions or other external factors over which
Wellgistics Health has no control, could interrupt product supply and, if not effectively managed and remedied, have a material adverse
impact on Wellgistics Health’s business operations, financial condition and results of operations.
Wellgistics
Health’s pharmacy division and to the greater extent, Wellgistics Health’s independent network of partner pharmacies, may
also be impacted by disruptions in global supply chain as listed above based on primary wholesaler and direct pharmaceutical manufacturing
contracts.
Wellgistics
Health’s business and operations will be subject to risks related to climate change.
The
long-term effects of global climate change present both physical risks (such as extreme weather conditions or rising sea levels) and
transition risks (such as regulatory or technology changes), are expected to be widespread and unpredictable. These changes could over
time affect, for example, the availability and cost of products, commodities and energy (including utilities), which in turn may impact
Wellgistics Health’s ability to procure goods or services required for the operation of Wellgistics Health’s business at
the quantities and levels Wellgistics Health require. In addition, Wellgistics Health’s facilities may be in locations that may
be impacted by the physical risks of climate change, and Wellgistics Health may face the risk of losses incurred as a result of physical
damage to stores, distribution or fulfillment centers, loss or spoilage of inventory and business interruption caused by such events.
Wellgistics Health will also use natural gas, diesel fuel, gasoline and electricity in Wellgistics Health’s operations, all of
which could face increased regulation as a result of climate change or other environmental concerns.
Whether
internally or via Wellgistics Health’s third-party relationships with Wellgistics Health’s national and regional ride- sharing
partners (i.e., Lyft and Roadie) for prescription delivery; and shipping carriers (i.e., USPS, UPS, FedEx), rising fuel costs will lead
to an increase in tiered rates for mileage/distance which will increase Wellgistics Health’s costs associated with prescription
delivery or shipping. Regulations limiting greenhouse gas emissions and energy inputs may also increase in coming years, which may increase
Wellgistics Health’s costs associated with compliance and merchandise. These events and their impacts could otherwise disrupt and
adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s operations and could materially adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s financial performance.
Wellgistics
Health’s business is primarily focused on certain therapeutic targets, making it vulnerable to risks associated with having therapeutically
concentrated operations.
Wellgistics
Health’s operates within the “specialty-lite” or niche sector of the pharmaceutical industry. It is well documented
in the literature that the specialty drug market accounts for less than 10% of total drugs in the market. As a result, Wellgistics Health’s
business, financial condition and results of operations are susceptible to economic downturns within this sector of the industry, whether
cause by state regulations, budget constraints, severe weather conditions, catastrophic events, or other disruptions. As Wellgistics
Health seeks to expand its existing operations, opportunities for growth within the “specialty-lite” or niche sector of the
pharmaceutical industry may become more limited.
24
Failure
to retain and recruit, or failure to manage succession of, key personnel could have an adverse impact on Wellgistics Health’s future
performance.
Wellgistics
Health’s ability to attract, engage, develop and retain qualified and experienced employees at all levels, including in executive
and other key strategic positions, is essential for us to meet Wellgistics Health’s objectives. Competition among potential employers
might result in increased salaries, benefits or other employee-related costs, or in Wellgistics Health’s failure to recruit and
retain employees which could have a materially adverse impact on Wellgistics Health’s business operations, financial condition
and results of operations.
Additionally,
any failure to adequately plan for and manage succession of key management roles or the failure of key employees to successfully transition
into new roles could have a material adverse effect on Wellgistics Health’s business and results of operations. While Wellgistics
Health has succession plans in place and employment arrangements with certain key executives, these do not guarantee the services of
these executives will continue to be available to us.
We
are highly dependent on the continued service of our directors and officers, whose financial interests may conflict with the interests
of investors.
Our
directors and officers, have years of significant experience in the pharmaceutical industry and other sectors related to our business.
Our success depends upon the continued service of these directors and officers. The loss of any of these directors and officers might
significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our business objectives and could materially harm our business, financial condition
and results of operations.
Failure
to renew facility leases in a timely manner could have an adverse impact on Wellgistics Health’s business operations.
Wellgistics
Health’s facilities will include multiple corporate offices, physical location of the pharmacy, and multiple warehouse facilities
for wholesale product warehousing and distribution. These locations are subject to competition with other retailers and businesses for
suitable locations for Wellgistics Health’s facilities. Local land use and zoning regulations, environmental regulations and other
regulatory requirements may impact Wellgistics Health’s ability to find suitable locations and influence the cost of constructing,
renovating and operating Wellgistics Health’s stores. In addition, real estate, zoning, construction and other delays may adversely
affect Wellgistics Health’s business and increase Wellgistics Health’s costs. Further, changing local demographics may adversely
affect revenue and profitability levels. The terms of leases at existing facility locations may adversely affect Wellgistics Health if
the renewal terms of, or requested modifications to, those leases are unacceptable to Wellgistics Health, and Wellgistics Health will
be forced to close or relocate operations. If Wellgistics Health is unable to maintain Wellgistics Health’s facility locations
or open/move to new facility locations in desirable places and on favorable terms, Wellgistics Health’s results of operations could
be materially and adversely affected.
Wellgistics
Health may not be able to maintain business, scale for growth, renew pharmacy and wholesale state licenses, and retain commercial and
federal contracts while preventing restrictions and termination.
The
ability to maintain business channels, service existing pharmacies from a wholesale product distribution perspective, and service Wellgistics
Health’s patient base at the pharmacy will all be potential areas for adverse impacts to Wellgistics Health’s financial condition
and operations due to everchanging regulations and requirements to maintain contracts and licenses. Wellgistics Health’s wholesale
operations will retain state licenses for whole distribution from the various state boards of pharmacy or equivalent along with the federal
level as maintained by the FDA, third-party logistics and controlled substance licenses from all state boards of pharmacy, and an accreditation
with the NABP and Accredited Drug Distributor.
Wellgistics
Health’s pharmacy division has the equivalent of 32 state board of pharmacy licenses along with the District of Columbia. Many
of these licenses include the ability to dispense controlled substance with only a few states retaining waivers for exemption. The pharmacy
will also have a Florida state Medicaid contract, several National Provider Identifier numbers, and a Drug Enforcement Agency (“DEA”)
certificate. The pharmacy formerly had accreditation status with Accreditation Commission for Health Care (“ACHC”) and URAC
as a specialty pharmacy and plans on pursing reaccreditation along with URAC Small Business Mail Order accreditation. The pharmacy will
retain all major PBM/payor direct contracts with little to no restrictions. The pharmacy will be affiliated with Elevate as its Pharmacy
Services Administration Organization to provide the relevant minor PBM contracts.
25
The
ability to retain all of these state board, federal, and PBM/payor contracts through the renewal process while expanding Wellgistics
Health’s reach is critical to conducting business and generating revenues. Contract restrictions, termination, and or an inability
to expand would be deemed as events that could disrupt and adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s operations and could materially
adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s financial performance.
Wellgistics
Health’s relationships with Wellgistics Health’s primary wholesaler for pharmacy operations and Wellgistics Health’s
manufacturer relationships for Wellgistics Health’s wholesale and hub technology platform entities will be critical to Wellgistics
Health’s success.
Wellgistics
Health’s internal pharmacy division has a primary contract with AmerisourceBergen for pharmaceutical distribution agreement pursuant
to which Wellgistics Health sources branded and generic pharmaceutical products from AmerisourceBergen. Wellgistics Pharmacy executed
this agreement in October 2022, and the agreement requires the pharmacy to purchase a certain volume per month while also maintain compliance
with the generic compliance ratio. Wellgistics Health has a relationship with HD Smith and Scienture Holdings, Inc. (f/k/a TRxADE Health,
Inc.) (“Scienture”) to acquire products via the secondary channel. This is seen as a potential risk for the business as the
secondary channel providers often do not provide full spectrum catalogs and more specifically used to assist with cost savings opportunities
through the purchase of short-dated products and or access to specialty or niche therapeutic category products. Consequently, Wellgistics
Health’s business may be adversely affected by any operational, financial or regulatory difficulties that these wholesalers or
pharmaceutical manufacturers experience, including those resulting from COVID-19. For example, if operations are seriously disrupted
for any reason, whether due to a natural disaster, pandemic, labor disruption, regulatory action, computer or operational systems or
otherwise, it could adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s business and Wellgistics Health’s results of operations.
Wellgistics
Health’s distribution agreement with AmerisourceBergen is subject to early termination in certain circumstances and, upon the expiration
or termination of the agreement, there can be no assurance that Wellgistics Health or AmerisourceBergen will be willing to renew the
agreement or enter into a new agreement, on terms favorable to us or at all. If such expiration or termination occurred, Wellgistics
Health believes that alternative sources of supply for most generic and brand- name pharmaceuticals are readily available and that Wellgistics
Health could obtain and qualify alternative sources, which may include self-distribution in some cases, for substantially all of the
prescription drugs Wellgistics Health will sell on an acceptable basis, such that the impact of any such expiration or termination would
be temporary. However, there can be no assurance Wellgistics Health would be able to engage alternative supply sources as a primary wholesaler
for generic and branded products in a timely basis or on terms favorable to us, or effectively manage these transitions, any of which
could adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s business operations, financial condition and results of operations.
At
the wholesale level, Wellgistics Health now has, upon closing of the Wellgistics Acquisition, relationships with over 60 manufacturers
to distribute products to retail, independent, and specialty pharmacies. At the hub technology platform division, Wellgistics Health
will leverage the wholesale operation to expand pharmaceutical manufacturer relationships. Wellgistics Health’s combined portfolio
will work synergistically to provide additional value to pharmaceutical manufacturers. This will in turn will help lower costs and provide
additional market access. In recent years, an increasing number of pharmaceutical manufacturers have attempted to significantly limit
the number of pharmacies that may dispense their drugs. Pharmacies dispensing products from direct manufacturer relationships need to
ensure they can manage a drug’s rollout, obtain real-time data, and confirm the unique patient population’s receipt of the
necessary services and support to remain adherent. Access to limited-distribution drugs provides us with significant competitive advantages
in developing relationships with payers and physicians. If Wellgistics Health cannot obtain access to new limited-distribution pharmaceuticals
or lose access to limited-distribution pharmaceuticals Wellgistics Health currently distribute this could have a material and adverse
impact on Wellgistics Health’s business, profitability and results of operations.
Wellgistics
Health will obtain access to limited-distribution drugs primarily from small to mid-size pharmaceutical companies, often many of these
are boutique companies, many of whom are bringing their first or second drug to market. Wellgistics Health will incur significant expense,
time and opportunity cost to educate and assist emerging small and mid-size manufacturers in bringing these products to the marketplace
without any guarantee of a successful drug launch or future sales. The failure to monetize these relationships and supply Wellgistics
Health’s independent network of pharmacies with prescriptions could adversely impact Wellgistics Health’s profitability and
Wellgistics Health’s prospects.
26
Wellgistics
Health will also provide a significant amount of direct and indirect services for the benefit of Wellgistics Health’s pharmaceutical
manufacturer customers and Wellgistics Health’s patients to gain access to these products, and Wellgistics Health’s failure
to provide services at optimal quality could result in losing access to existing and future drugs. In addition, Wellgistics Health will
incur significant costs in providing these services and if manufacturers require significant additional services and products to obtain
access to their drugs without a corresponding increase in service fees paid to Wellgistics Health, Wellgistics Health’s profitability
could be adversely impacted.
Wellgistics
Health’s contracts with pharmaceutical manufacturers and wholesalers will be generally for one-year terms on the hub technology
platform and clinical services and three years on the wholesale side and are terminable on reasonably short notice by either party before
or after the contract term. If several of these contractual relationships are terminated or materially altered by the pharmaceutical
manufacturers or wholesalers or if Wellgistics Health is otherwise unable to renew these contracts or enter into similar contracts on
favorable terms, Wellgistics Health could lose a major source of revenue from the pharmaceuticals Wellgistics Health will dispense or
distribute, and also prescriptions Wellgistics Health is able to generate and pass through to Wellgistics Health’s network of independent
pharmacy partners which would materially impact Wellgistics Health’s operations and financial condition.
Wellgistics
Health will outsource certain business processes to third-party vendors that subject us to risks, including disruptions in business and
increased costs.
Wellgistics
Health will outsource certain business, administrative, and development functions and rely on third-party technologies such as plug-ins
and advanced programming interfaces (“APIs”) to perform certain services for Wellgistics Health’s hub technology platform
and other divisions on Wellgistics Health’s behalf. Various examples of this will include relationships with both domestic and
foreign developers for Wellgistics Health’s mobile solutions as part of Wellgistics Health’s hub technology platform, relationships
with various PMS system providers, relationships with various ride-sharing platform providers and their network of drivers, carrier relationships
for shipping of products, and various relationships with third party clinical service providers or technology solutions to be able to
offer Wellgistics Health’s end- to-end holistic approach to patient- centered care services.
Wellgistics
Health will rely on third-party vendors and their licenses to meet Wellgistics Health’s quality and performance requirements. Wellgistics
Health will utilize these third-party vendors for some of the technology to be used in Wellgistics Health’s products, and intends
to license technologies from third parties. Most of these licenses can be renewed only by mutual consent and may be terminated if Wellgistics
Health breaches the terms of the license and fails to cure the breach within a specified period of time. Wellgistics Health may not be
able to obtain these licenses on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. Wellgistics Health’s inability to obtain or renew these
licenses or find suitable alternatives could delay development of new products or prevent us from selling Wellgistics Health’s
existing products until suitable substitute technology can be identified, licensed, integrated, or developed by us. Wellgistics Health
cannot assure you as to when Wellgistics Health would be able to do so, if at all.
Most
of Wellgistics Health’s third-party licenses will be non-exclusive. Wellgistics Health’s competitors may obtain the right
to use any of the technology covered by these licenses and use the technology to attempt to compete more effectively with us. In addition,
Wellgistics Health’s use of third-party technologies will expose it to risks associated with the integration of components from
various sources into Wellgistics Health’s products, such as unknown software errors or defects or unanticipated incompatibility
with Wellgistics Health’s systems and technologies, or unintended infringement resulting from the combination of intellectual property
rights. Further, Wellgistics Health will be dependent on Wellgistics Health’s vendors’ support of the technology Wellgistics
Health will use. If a vendor chooses to discontinue or is unable to support a licensed technology, Wellgistics Health may not be able
to modify or adapt Wellgistics Health’s products to fit other available technologies in a timely manner, which would lead us to
experience operational difficulties, reputational harm, and increased costs that could materially and adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s
business operations and results of operations.
27
Risks
Relating to Wellgistics Health’s Business Strategy
Wellgistics
Health may not be successful in executing elements of Wellgistics Health’s business strategy, which may have a material adverse
impact on Wellgistics Health’s business and financial results.
Wellgistics
Health’s ability to successfully implement Wellgistics Health’s comprehensive strategy of leveraging product warehousing/distribution
while simultaneously facilitating the hub technology platform to transfer prescriptions to Wellgistics Health’s network of independent
partner pharmacies will be crucial to Wellgistics Health’s operations and financial condition. Wellgistics Health’s wholesale
operations will enable pharmaceutical companies to have a single entity for contracting which assists with minimizing product returns
and eliminates chargebacks. Now that the Wellgistics LLC Acquisition has closed, Wellgistics Health’s warehouse’s distribution
capabilities assist manufacturers with preventing inventory loss in the form of having to sell short-dated products at a lower margin
and or potentially destroy expired and unusable products. Wellgistics Health’s portfolio of products along with Wellgistics Health’s
sales strategy will enable Wellgistics Health to move niche specialty products that have a distinct place in the market and help maximize
returns.
The
ability to provide pharmaceutical manufacturer and provider groups like ACOs with a hub technology platform with an accompanying robust
network of independent pharmacies is crucial to the success of Wellgistics Health’s health eco-system strategy. Wellgistics Health’s
technology platform along with Wellgistics Health’s mobile solutions will enable patients to access digital health resources for
added visibility in their prescription journey, which leads to cost savings opportunities, convenience, and healthier outcomes. This
is especially important for pharmaceutical manufacturers and provider group clients looking to improve health outcomes for the patient
populations they serve. Wellgistics Health will provide both of these clients with a reliable pharmacy network, clinical services, and
transparent reporting with a primary focus on boosting medication adherence. Wellgistics Health’s platform will be able to identify
high-risk patients and provide actionable and meaningful outcomes geared towards patient engagement to boost medication adherence and
preserve compliance to therapy. The ability to transfer these prescriptions to integrated and non-integrated pharmacies will be key to
receiving the data which can then be mined and presented to various stakeholders and clients to improve operational efficiency, customize
marketing, and share in cost savings.
Additionally,
Wellgistics Health will engage in strategic initiatives to, among other reasons, maximize long-term stockholder value, expand on Wellgistics
Health’s consumer-centric approach, strengthen Wellgistics Health’s partnerships with local healthcare providers and improve
health outcomes. These strategic initiatives do not guarantee improvements in future financial performance. Wellgistics Health cannot
provide any assurance that Wellgistics Health will be able to successfully execute these strategic initiatives, or that these initiatives
will not result in additional unanticipated costs. The failure to realize the benefits of any strategic initiatives or successfully structure
Wellgistics Health’s business to meet market conditions could have a material adverse effect on Wellgistics Health’s business,
financial condition, cash flows, or results of operations.
Wellgistics
Health’s growth strategy is partially dependent upon Wellgistics Health’s ability to identify and successfully complete acquisitions,
joint ventures and other strategic partnerships and alliances.
A
significant element of Wellgistics Health’s growth strategy is to identify, pursue and successfully complete and integrate acquisitions,
joint ventures and other strategic partnerships and alliances that either expand or complement Wellgistics Health’s existing operations.
Acquisitions and other strategic transactions involve numerous risks, including difficulties in successfully integrating the operations
and personnel, navigating the necessary regulatory approval requirements, distraction of management from overseeing, and disruption of,
Wellgistics Health’s existing operations, difficulties in entering markets or lines of business in which Wellgistics Health has
no or limited direct prior experience, the possible loss of key employees and customers, and difficulties in achieving the synergies
Wellgistics Health anticipated. Any failure to select suitable opportunities at fair prices, conduct appropriate due diligence, acquire
and successfully integrate the acquired company, including particularly when acquired businesses operate in new geographic markets or
areas of business, could materially and adversely impact Wellgistics Health’s growth strategies, financial condition and results
of operations.
28
Apart
from acquisitions in the healthcare space and emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and blockchain technologies, Wellgistics
Health’s strategy is to engage in business-to-business relationships that can help us gain further market penetration and adoption,
all of which are imperative given the highly saturated healthcare market. Partnerships with strategic clients such as pharmaceutical
manufacturers and provider groups will help us source products at lower costs and drive prescriptions through Wellgistics Health’s
hub technology platform. Other strategic partnerships range from PMS systems, ridesharing and shipping companies GPOs, and other clinical
providers to provide robust and complementary services that are value adds for all stakeholders.
Currently,
the hub technology platform has partnered with Best Rx pharmacy software system. There are approximately 1,400 independent pharmacies
utilizing this software which accounts for greater than 6% of the independent pharmacy market share. These pharmacies are ideal candidates
to be members of Wellgistics Health’s integrated pharmacy network based on the various integrations Wellgistics Health will develop
to communicate with their systems. These locations are predominately located on the east coast. Wellgistics Health’s ability to
onboard pharmacies in an effective manner and being located on the east coast is a risk associated with gaining market share and providing
patients with an adequate solution for fulfillment. To combat this, Wellgistics Health will identify strategic partners within this network
that are able to ship prescription medications through Wellgistics Health’s integrations which aids in providing more coverage
area options. Wellgistics Health management has a relationship with PrimeRx MARKET and Pioneer Rx. Wellgistics Health believes that these
relationships could provide access to more than 16,500 pharmacies using a wide array of pharmacy management software systems which accounts
for 87% of the independent PMS. Through Wellgistics Health’s fax modality integrations and solutions for data capture for non-integrated
pharmacies, Wellgistics Health will have the means to provide patients with more robust network coverage. Wellgistics Health’s
team has identified additional PMS systems to partner with such as Prime Rx, Pioneer Rx, Liberty, Transactional Data Systems, and Digital
Business Solutions. These additional PMS systems will help with Wellgistics Health’s ability expand the integrated network which
help drive additional value in the form of data capture elements. By integrating with the PMS system, Wellgistics Health will then in
turn able to recruit the pharmacies utilizing this software to join Wellgistics Health’s network. Risks associated with this strategy
include the PMS corporate team’s willingness to partner, Wellgistics Health’s ability to integrate the software into Wellgistics
Health’s overall solution in a timely manner, and the pharmacies willingness to join the network.
Wellgistics
Health’s software solution will be integrated with two national ride-sharing logistics providers and all of the major shipping
carriers to offer both pharmacies and patients with multiple means for sending and receiving their prescriptions. From the ride-sharing
prospective, Wellgistics Health’s core technology will be integrated with Lyft Healthcare, Inc., and Roadie. These integrations
will help us provide nationwide coverage for same-day and next-day prescription delivery and a system with built in redundancies between
both networks to ensure prompt delivery. Wellgistics Health’s strategy is to onboard pharmacies across the United States and mapping
out ride-sharing coverage to ensure adequate turnaround time for prescription delivery. Risks associated with this strategy include maintaining
an on-going relationship with these entities, providing a significant number of transactions to ensure profitability for all partners,
and Wellgistics Health’s ability to renew contracts. Wellgistics Health’s contractual relationships will be for one-year
terms with one-year autorenewal terms. Either party will be able to terminate the relationship with proper notice. Wellgistics Health’s
integrations with carriers include USPS, UPS, and FedEx. Wellgistics Health will be able to transmit the respective rates to end users
based on the network partner pharmacy’s availability and allow patients to price compare options due to the redundancies. Future
risks associated with this include changes to rates based on factors such as inflation, fuel, and other variables that are not in control
which could impact Wellgistics Health’s business operations and financial condition.
Wellgistics
Health’s strategy to increase Wellgistics Health’s network of independent partner pharmacies also leverages GPOs. By partnering
with these entities, Wellgistics Health will be able to onboard a larger cohort of pharmacies vs. individual sign-up, and in return,
these GPOs will be able to promote Wellgistics Health’s services as a business opportunity to help network pharmacies increase
their business and improve their bottom line. Risks associated with this strategy include successfully presenting the value proposition
to the corporate team and obtaining a contract, ability to convert pharmacy’s part of the GPO through combined marketing initiatives,
execution of Wellgistics Health’s onboarding strategies, and the pharmacies willingness to remain in the network and pay associated
fees. It should be noted that each participating pharmacy within the GPO uses different PMS systems and that by successfully striking
a partnership with the GPO, there is no guarantee that Wellgistics Health will be able to onboard each pharmacy to the integrated network.
Wellgistics Health can however onboard them to the “soft network” which allows us to transfer the prescription via fax.
29
Integrating
third-party clinical features and services is vital to the success of Wellgistics Health’s business strategy as being an end-to-end
solution for end users and Wellgistics Health’s clients. Wellgistics Health’s partners that offer these types of value-add
services include patient enrollment campaigns, prior authorization coordination, digital health resources, calendar-based refill reminder
systems, and other key pieces that will help boost the lifetime value and net promoter score for market adoption. Risks associated with
these partnerships include willingness to integrate, costs associated with these services, end clients need for these services to continue
driving growth, Wellgistics Health’s ability to engage in cost-sharing with the pharmacies for the various service levels being
provided, and the dependency on the quality of the services being performed by these third-party companies.
These
acquisition transactions and potential partnerships may also cause us to significantly increase Wellgistics Health’s interest expense,
leverage and debt service requirements if Wellgistics Health incurs additional debt to pay for an acquisition or investment, issue common
stock that would dilute Wellgistics Health’s current stockholders’ percentage ownership, or incur asset write-offs and restructuring
costs and other related expenses that could have a material adverse impact on Wellgistics Health’s operating results. Acquisitions,
joint ventures and strategic investments also involve numerous other risks, including potential exposure to assumed litigation and unknown
environmental and other liabilities, as well as undetected internal control, regulatory or other issues, or additional costs not anticipated
at the time the transaction was completed. The failure to realize the benefits of any strategic initiatives and partnerships to meet
market conditions could have a material adverse effect on Wellgistics Health’s business, financial condition, or results of operations.
Businesses
acquired by Wellgistics Health could experience losses or liabilities that would result in a material adverse effect on Wellgistics Health’s
business operations, results of operation and financial condition.
Healthcare
and technology businesses acquired could experience losses or liabilities, including medical liability claims, causing us to incur significant
expenses and requiring Wellgistics Health to pay significant damages if not covered by insurance. These businesses will be subject to
medical liability claims in the ordinary course of business, and although Wellgistics Health will carry insurance covering medical malpractice
claims, including professional liability insurance, in amounts Wellgistics Health believes is appropriate in light of the risks attendant
to Wellgistics Health’s business, successful medical liability claims could result in substantial damage awards that exceed the
limits of Wellgistics Health’s insurance coverage. Professional liability insurance is expensive and insurance premiums may increase
significantly in the future, particularly as Wellgistics Health expands Wellgistics Health’s services. As a result, adequate professional
liability insurance may not be available to Wellgistics Health in the future at acceptable costs or at all. Any claims made against Wellgistics
Health or its acquired businesses that are not fully covered by insurance could be costly to defend against, result in substantial damage
awards against us and divert the attention of Wellgistics Health’s management and Wellgistics Health’s providers from Wellgistics
Health’s operations, which could harm Wellgistics Health’s business. In addition, any claims may significantly harm Wellgistics
Health’s business or reputation.
In
addition, businesses acquired expose Wellgistics Health to risks that are inherent in the provision of healthcare services. If patients,
clients or partners assert liability claims against Wellgistics Health, any ensuing litigation, regardless of outcome, could result in
a substantial cost to Wellgistics Health, divert management’s attention from operations, and decrease market acceptance of Wellgistics
Health’s services and care delivery model. Wellgistics Health does exert control over any provider led entities now or in the future
with respect to the practice of medicine and the provision of healthcare services, and the risk of liability, including through unexpected
medical outcomes, is inherent to the healthcare industry.
Wellgistics
Health may make investments in companies over which Wellgistics Health does not have sole control and some of these companies may operate
in sectors that differ from Wellgistics Health’s operations and have different risks.
From
time to time, Wellgistics Health may make debt or equity investments in companies that Wellgistics Health may not control or over which
Wellgistics Health may not have sole control but would be of strategic value to bolster Wellgistics Health’s service and capabilities.
Investments in these businesses, among other risks, subject Wellgistics Health to the operating and financial risks of the businesses
Wellgistics Health invests in and to the risk that Wellgistics Health does not have sole control over the operations of these businesses.
Wellgistics Health relies on the internal controls and financial reporting controls of these entities and their failure to maintain effectiveness
or comply with applicable standards may materially and adversely affect Wellgistics Health. Investments in entities over which Wellgistics
Health does not have sole control, including joint ventures and strategic partnerships and alliances, present additional risks such as
having differing objectives from Wellgistics Health’s partners or the entities in which Wellgistics Health will be invested, becoming
involved in disputes, or competing with those persons.
30
The
success of Wellgistics Health’s hub technology platform and clinical services depends on the willingness of participants in the
network of independent partner pharmacies to continue receiving prescriptions and enrolling in a-la-carte services for outsourced work.
Wellgistics
Health’s pharmacy network will be segregated into three networks: integrated network, soft network, and general pharmacy network.
The integrated network would be any pharmacy that has completed onboarding and using a PMS system which Wellgistics Health will have
integrated with for the bidirectional exchange of electronic information including prescription transfer. The soft network would be any
onboarded pharmacy who Wellgistics Health will not have an integration with but that can still receive prescription transfers in the
form of facsimile and who Wellgistics Health will establish alternative means for data capture. Lastly, the general network is any pharmacy
irrespective of whether they would be deemed as an independent pharmacy and that the patient has elected to transfer their prescription
to thereby preserving patient autonomy.
Accordingly,
a general downturn in the pharmacy industry, or healthcare industry more generally, could materially harm Wellgistics Health’s
hub services offerings. In addition, demand for Wellgistics Health’s hub services may be affected by Wellgistics Health’s
customers’ perceptions regarding outsourcing as a whole. For example, other digital pharmacies or hub services companies could
engage in conduct or fail to detect malfeasance that could render Wellgistics Health’s customers less willing to do business with
them or any digital pharmacy or hub services company. If any such event causing industry-wide reputational harm were to occur, even though
outside Wellgistics Health’s control, confidence in the industry generally could be impaired and the willingness of Wellgistics
Health’s customers to outsource services to organizations that provide digital pharmacy and hub services like Wellgistics Health’s
could diminish.
Moreover,
demand for Wellgistics Health’s digital pharmacy hub services will depend to a significant extent on the trust Wellgistics Health’s
customers place in the combined company and Wellgistics Health’s reputation for independent, high-quality service. To maintain
client satisfaction and compliance, Wellgistics Health will keep certain information and software systems, infrastructure, and employees
“firewalled” on a need-to-know basis. In the event that Wellgistics Health’s protocols or procedures are not followed
or contain undetected errors or defects that are subsequently discovered by Wellgistics Health, Wellgistics Health’s customers
or a third-party, Wellgistics Health’s reputation with current and potential customers could be harmed. If one or more of the foregoing
events were to occur, it could have a material adverse effect on Wellgistics Health’s business, financial condition and results
of operations.
Risks
Related to Cybersecurity, Data Privacy, and Information Security
A
significant disruption in Wellgistics Health’s information technology and computer systems or those of businesses Wellgistics Health
relies on could harm Wellgistics Health.
At
Wellgistics Health’s internal pharmacy division, Wellgistics Health will rely extensively on Wellgistics Health’s computer/software
systems to manage Wellgistics Health’s ordering, pricing, point-of-sale, pharmacy fulfillment, inventory replenishment, finance
and other processes. Additionally, Wellgistics Health’s core architecture will be housed on Amazon Web Services servers, and Wellgistics
Health will rely on various third-party vendors and partners who will provide various plug-ins and APIs that drive Wellgistics Health’s
end-to-end solution on the hub technology platform that could significantly impact Wellgistics Health’s business operations and
financial condition. To a greater extent, Wellgistics Health’s PMS system partners will be used by various network pharmacies and
may impact Wellgistics Health’s ability to electronically transmit information.
Wellgistics
Health’s systems will be subject to damage or interruption from power outages, facility damage, computer and telecommunications
failures, computer viruses, security breaches including credit card or personally identifiable information breaches, vandalism, theft,
natural disasters, catastrophic events, human error and potential cyber threats, including malicious codes, worms, phishing attacks,
denial of service attacks, ransomware and other sophisticated cyber-attacks, and Wellgistics Health’s disaster recovery planning
cannot account for all eventualities. If any of Wellgistics Health’s systems are damaged, fail to function properly or otherwise
become unavailable, Wellgistics Health may incur substantial costs to repair or replace them, and may experience loss or corruption of
critical data and interruptions or disruptions and delays in Wellgistics Health’s ability to perform critical functions, which
could materially and adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s businesses and results of operations.
31
In
addition, Wellgistics Health expects to make substantial investments in Wellgistics Health’s information technology systems and
infrastructure, some of which are significant. Implementing new systems carries significant potential risks, including failure to operate
as designed, potential loss or corruption of data or information, changes in security processes, cost overruns, implementation delays,
disruption of operations, and the potential inability to meet business and reporting requirements. Wellgistics Health will rely on strategic
partners and other service providers to help us with certain significant information technology projects and services. Information technology
projects or services frequently are long-term in nature and may take longer to complete and cost more than Wellgistics Health expects
and may not deliver the benefits Wellgistics Health projects once they are complete. Any system implementation and transition difficulty
may result in operational challenges, reputational harm, and increased costs that could materially and adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s
business operations and results of operations. Wellgistics Health also could be adversely affected by any significant disruption in the
systems of third parties Wellgistics Health interact with, including strategic and business partners, key payers and vendors.
Privacy
and data protection laws will increase Wellgistics Health’s compliance burden and any failure to comply could harm Wellgistics
Health.
The
regulatory environment surrounding data security and privacy is increasingly demanding, with the frequent imposition of new and changing
requirements across businesses and geographic areas. Wellgistics Health will be required to comply with increasingly complex and changing
data security and privacy regulations in the jurisdictions in which Wellgistics Health will operate that regulate the collection, use
and transfer of personal data, including the transfer of personal data between or among countries. In the U.S., for example, HIPAA imposes
extensive privacy and security requirements governing the transmission, use and disclosure of health information by covered entities
in the healthcare industry, including healthcare providers such as pharmacies. In addition, the California Consumer Privacy Act, which
went into effect on January 1, 2020, imposes stringent requirements on the use and treatment of “personal information” of
California residents, and other jurisdictions have enacted, or are proposing similar laws related to the protection of personal data.
Moreover, there are specific privacy requirements from Apple and Google’s respective mobile application stores that Wellgistics
Health will need to be up to date with as Wellgistics Health’s mobile application is currently available on both stores.
Compliance
with changes in privacy and information security laws and standards may result in significant expense due to increased investment in
technology and the development of new operational processes. Failure to comply with these laws subjects us to potential regulatory enforcement
activity, fines, private litigation including class actions, and other costs. Wellgistics Health will have contractual obligations that
might be breached if Wellgistics Health fails to comply a significant privacy breach or failure to comply with privacy and information
security laws could have a materially adverse impact on Wellgistics Health’s reputation, business operations, financial position
and results of operations.
Wellgistics
Health and businesses with which Wellgistics Health will interact may experience cybersecurity incidents and might experience significant
computer system compromises or data breaches.
The
protection of customer, employee and company data will be critical to Wellgistics Health’s businesses. Cybersecurity and other
information technology security risks, such as a significant breach or theft of customer, employee, or company data, could create significant
workflow disruption, attract media attention, damage Wellgistics Health’s customer relationships, reputation and brand, and result
in lost sales, fines or lawsuits. Throughout Wellgistics Health’s future operations, Wellgistics Health will receive, retain and
transmit certain personal information that Wellgistics Health’s customers and others provide to purchase products or services,
fill prescriptions, enroll in clinical and promotional programs, register on Wellgistics Health’s website or mobile applications,
or otherwise communicate and interact with us. In addition, aspects of Wellgistics Health’s operations will depend upon the secure
transmission of confidential information over public networks. Wellgistics Health will also depend on and interact with the information
technology networks and systems of third parties for many aspects of Wellgistics Health’s business operations, strategic partners,
and cloud service providers. These third parties may have access to information Wellgistics Health will maintain about Wellgistics Health’s
company, operations, customers, employees and vendors, or operating systems that are critical to or can significantly impact Wellgistics
Health’s business operations. Like other healthcare technology companies, Wellgistics Health and the businesses Wellgistics Health
interact with will experience threats to data and systems, including from vandalism or theft of physical systems or media and from perpetrators
of random or targeted malicious cyber- attacks, computer viruses, worms, phishing attacks, bot attacks or other destructive or disruptive
software and attempts to misappropriate customer information, and cause system failures and disruptions.
32
Compromises
of Wellgistics Health’s data security systems or of those of businesses with which Wellgistics Health interacts that result in
confidential information being accessed, obtained, damaged or used by unauthorized or improper persons, could in the future adversely
impact Wellgistics Health. Any such compromise could harm Wellgistics Health’s reputation and expose it to regulatory actions,
customer attrition, remediation expenses, and claims from customers, financial institutions, payment card associations and other persons,
any of which could materially and adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s reputation, business operations, financial condition and
results of operations. In addition, security incidents may require that Wellgistics Health expend substantial additional resources related
to the security of information systems and disrupt Wellgistics Health’s businesses. The risks associated with data security and
cybersecurity incidents have increased during COVID-19 given the increased reliance on remote work arrangements.
Wellgistics
Health will be subject to electronic payment-related and other financial services risks that could increase Wellgistics Health’s
operating costs, expose Wellgistics Health to fraud or theft, subject Wellgistics Health to potential liability and potentially disrupt
Wellgistics Health’s business operations.
Across
Wellgistics Health’s businesses, Wellgistics Health will accept payments using a variety of methods, including cash, checks, credit
and debit cards, mobile payment technologies such as Apple Pay or PayPal, and Wellgistics Health may offer new payment options over time.
Acceptance of these payment options will subject Wellgistics Health to rules, regulations, contractual obligations, and compliance requirements,
including payment network rules and operating guidelines, data security standards and certification requirements, and rules governing
electronic funds transfers. These requirements and related interpretations may change over time, which has made and could continue to
make compliance more difficult or costly.
For
certain payment methods, including credit and debit cards, Wellgistics Health will pay interchange and other fees, which could increase
over time and raise Wellgistics Health’s operating costs. Wellgistics Health will rely on third parties such as Stripe to provide
payment processing services, including the processing of credit cards, debit cards, and other forms of electronic payment. Wellgistics
Health will not store credit card information on file for Wellgistics Health’s mobile technology to remain in PCI compliance, however,
Wellgistics Health’s other business entities may store this information on file for clients, partners, and vendors. If these companies
become unable to provide these services, or if their systems are compromised, it could disrupt Wellgistics Health’s business. The
payment methods that Wellgistics Health will offer also subject Wellgistics Health to potential fraud and theft by persons who seek to
obtain unauthorized access to or exploit any weaknesses that may exist in the payment systems. If Wellgistics Health fails to comply
with applicable rules or requirements, or if data is compromised due to a breach or misuse of data relating to Wellgistics Health’s
payment systems, Wellgistics Health may be liable for costs incurred by payment card issuing banks and other third parties or subject
to fines and higher transaction fees, or Wellgistics Health’s ability to accept or facilitate certain types of payments could be
impaired. In addition, Wellgistics Health’s reputation could suffer, and Wellgistics Health’s customers could lose confidence
in certain payment types, which could result in higher costs and/or reduced sales and materially and adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s
results of operations.

Risks
Related to Financial and Accounting Matters
Wellgistics
Health and its subsidiaries have, and entities that Wellgistics Health may acquire could have, significant outstanding debt. The debt
and associated payment obligations of Wellgistics Health and its current and future subsidiaries could significantly increase in the
future if Wellgistics Health and its current or future subsidiaries incur additional debt and do not retire existing debt.
Wellgistics
Health and Wood Sage are holding companies with no business operations of their own. Their assets primarily consist of direct ownership
interest in, and their business is conducted through, subsidiaries which are separate legal entities. As a result, they are dependent
on funding from their investors and operating subsidiaries to pay dividends and meet their debt obligations. As of December 31, 2025,
the outstanding debt and credit obligations of Wellgistics Health and its subsidiaries was $23.3 million. Wellgistics Health’s
subsidiaries may continue to experience negative cash flows and be restricted in their ability to pay cash dividends or to make other
distributions to Wellgistics Health, which may limit the payment of cash dividends or other distributions to the holders of Wellgistics
Health’s Common Stock. Credit facilities and other debt obligations of Wellgistics Health, as well as statutory provisions, may
further limit the ability of Wellgistics Health and its subsidiaries to pay dividends. Payments to Wellgistics Health by its subsidiaries
are also contingent upon the subsidiaries’ earnings, if any, and business considerations. Future dividends to Wellgistics Health
will be determined based on earnings, if any, capital requirements, financial condition and other factors considered relevant by its
board of directors.
Wellgistics
Health’s quarterly results may fluctuate significantly based on seasonality and other factors.
Wellgistics
Health’s operating results have historically varied on a quarterly basis, including increased variability during COVID-19, and
may continue to fluctuate significantly in the future. For instance, Wellgistics Health’s pharmacy business and its PBM and payor
contracts often experience significant changes twice per year as new formularies are introduced in January and July which often restrict
certain products, allow new products to be covered, or products change covered insurance tiers thereby making them more difficult access
for members. This same effect can be extrapolated to Wellgistics Health’s hub technology platform division and the corresponding
network pharmacies that are part of Wellgistics Health’s network in the form of reduced transaction fees from transferred prescriptions.
This in turn may impact Wellgistics Health’s wholesale division as for the exact same reason which may negatively impact Wellgistics
Health’s ability to move certain products and increase Wellgistics Health’s liabilities in the form of inventory.
In
addition, both prescription and non-prescription drug sales are affected by the timing and severity of the cough, cold and flu season,
which can vary considerably from year to year. Other factors that may affect Wellgistics Health’s quarterly operating results,
some of which are beyond the control of management, include, but are not limited to the timing of the introduction of new generic and
brand name prescription drugs; inflation (i.e., generic drug procurement costs); changes in payer reimbursement rates and terms; the
timing and amount of periodic contractual reconciliation payments, fluctuations in inventory, energy, transportation, labor, healthcare
and other costs; significant acquisitions, dispositions, joint ventures and other strategic initiatives; asset impairment charges, including
the performance of and impairment charges related to Wellgistics Health’s equity method investments; market conditions; and many
of the other risk factors discussed herein. Accordingly, Wellgistics Health believes that quarter- to-quarter comparisons of Wellgistics
Health’s operating results are not necessarily meaningful, and investors should not place undue reliance on the results of any
particular quarter as an indication of Wellgistics Health’s future performance.
Wellgistics
Health has a substantial amount of goodwill and other intangible assets which could, in the future, become impaired and result in material
non-cash charges to Wellgistics Health’s results of operations. Wellgistics Health may be required to take write-downs or write-offs,
restructuring and impairment or other charges that could have a significant negative effect on its financial condition, results of operations,
and stock price.
There
can be no assurances that all material issues that may be present in Wellgistics Health’s operations, including from the Wood Sage
Acquisition and Wellgistics Acquisition, or that factors outside of its control will not later arise. As a result, Wellgistics Health
may be forced to write-down or write-off assets, restructure operations, or incur impairment or other charges that could result in losses.
Unexpected risks may arise and previously known risks may materialize in a manner not consistent with each company’s preliminary
risk analysis. Even though these charges may not have an immediate impact on Wellgistics Health’s liquidity, the fact that Wellgistics
Health will report charges of this nature could contribute to negative market perceptions about Wellgistics Health or its securities
and may make its future financing difficult to obtain on favorable terms or at all.
From
time to time, Wellgistics Health’s intangible assets are subject to impairment testing. Under current accounting standards, Wellgistics
Health’s goodwill, including acquired goodwill, is tested for impairment on an annual basis and may be subject to impairment losses
as circumstances change (e.g., after an acquisition). If Wellgistics Health records an impairment loss, it could have a material adverse
effect on Wellgistics Health’s results of operations for the year in which the impairment is recorded.
34
Acquisitions
Wellgistics Health pursues in its industry and related industries could result in operating difficulties, dilution to Wellgistics Health’s
stockholders and other consequences harmful to Wellgistics Health’s business.
As
part of Wellgistics Health’s growth strategy, it may selectively pursue strategic acquisitions in its industry and related industries.
Wellgistics Health may not be able to consummate such acquisitions, which could adversely impact Wellgistics Health’s growth. If
Wellgistics Health does consummate acquisitions, integrating an acquired company, business or technology may result in unforeseen operating
difficulties and expenditures, including:
●
increased
expenses due to transaction and integration costs;
●
potential
liabilities of the acquired businesses;
●
potential
adverse tax and accounting effects of the acquisitions;
●
diversion
of capital and other resources from our existing businesses;
●
diversion
of management’s attention during the acquisition process and any transition periods;
●
loss
of key employees of the acquired businesses following the acquisition; and
●
inaccurate
budgets and projected financial statements due to inaccurate valuation assessments of the acquired businesses.
Wellgistics
Health’s evaluations of potential acquisitions may not accurately assess the value or prospects of acquisition candidates, and
the anticipated benefits from its future acquisitions may not materialize. In addition, future acquisitions or dispositions could result
in potentially dilutive issuances of Wellgistics Health’s equity securities, including Wellgistics Health’s common stock,
the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities or amortization expenses, or write-offs of goodwill, any of which could harm Wellgistics
Health’s financial condition.
Wellgistics
Health may incur non-cash impairment charges in the future associated with its portfolio of intangible assets, including goodwill.
As
a result of the Wood Sage Acquisition and the Wellgistics Acquisition, Wellgistics Health has significant goodwill and other acquired
intangible assets on its consolidated balance sheet. Goodwill and intangible assets, net, accounted for approximately 80% of the total
assets on its consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025. Wellgistics Health tests goodwill for impairment annually as of December
31 of each year and Wellgistics Health tests goodwill and intangible assets, net, for impairment at other times if events have occurred
or circumstances exist that indicate the carrying value of such assets may no longer be recoverable. It is possible Wellgistics Health
may incur impairment charges in the future, particularly in the event of a prolonged economic recession or loss of a key client or clients.
A significant non-cash impairment could have a material adverse effect on Wellgistics Health’s results of operations.
Wellgistics
Health’s level of debt may negatively impact its liquidity, restrict its operations and ability to respond to business opportunities,
and increase its vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions, especially given that Wellgistics Health’s bank debt
contains a variable interest rate component based on its corporate credit ratings.
Wellgistics
Health utilizes debt financing in its capital structure and may incur additional debt, including under its revolving credit facility
subject to customary conditions in its loan agreements. Wellgistics Health’s level of debt could have significant consequences,
which include, but are not limited to, the following:
●
limiting
Wellgistics Health’s ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or other
general corporate purposes;
●
requiring
a substantial portion of Wellgistics Health’s cash flows to be dedicated to debt service payments instead of other purposes;
●
imposing
financial and other restrictive covenants on Wellgistics Health’s operations, including minimum liquidity and free cash flow
requirements and limitations on Wellgistics Health’s ability to (i) declare or pay dividends or repurchase shares of Wellgistics
Health’s Common Stock; (ii) purchase assets, make investments, complete acquisitions, consolidate or merge with or into, or
sell all or substantially all of Wellgistics Health’s assets to, another person; (iii) enter into sale/leaseback transactions
or certain transactions with affiliates; (iv) incur additional indebtedness and (v) incur liens; and
●
making
Wellgistics Health more vulnerable to economic downturns and limiting Wellgistics Health’s ability to withstand competitive
pressures or take advantage of new opportunities to grow Wellgistics Health’s business.
35
Wellgistics
Health’s ability to meet its debt service obligations, comply with Wellgistics Health’s debt covenants and deleverage depends
on its cash flows and financial performance, which are affected by financial, business, economic and other factors. The rate at which
Wellgistics Health will be able to or choose to deleverage is uncertain. Failure to meet Wellgistics Health’s debt service obligations
or comply with Wellgistics Health’s debt covenants could result in an event of default under the applicable indebtedness. Wellgistics
Health may be unable to cure, or obtain a waiver of, an event of default or otherwise amend Wellgistics Health’s debt agreements
to prevent an event of default thereunder on terms acceptable to Wellgistics Health or at all. In that event, the debt holders could
accelerate the related debt, which may result in the cross-acceleration or cross-default of other debt, leases or other obligations.
If Wellgistics Health does not have sufficient funds available to repay indebtedness when due, whether at maturity or by acceleration,
Wellgistics Health may be required to sell important strategic assets; refinance Wellgistics Health’s existing debt; incur additional
debt or issue common stock or other equity securities, which Wellgistics Health may not be able to do on terms acceptable to it, in amounts
sufficient to meet Wellgistics Health’s needs or at all. Wellgistics Health’s inability to service Wellgistics Health’s
debt obligations or refinance Wellgistics Health’s debt could harm Wellgistics Health’s business. Further, if Wellgistics
Health is unable to repay, refinance or restructure its secured indebtedness, the holder of such debt could proceed against the collateral
securing the Indebtedness. Refinancing Wellgistics Health’s indebtedness may also require Wellgistics Health to expense previous
debt issuance costs or to incur new debt issuance cost.
Wellgistics
Health’s financial performance is exposed to interest rate risks as the Company funds its working capital with bank asset-based
lending (“ABL”) debt that carries a variable interest rate linked to the Company’s corporate credit ratings. Consequent
to higher interest rates in the economy, the Company has had to pay higher interest rates on its own ABL debt. Given the competitive
nature of the drug wholesale business, the company has not been able to, and may not be able in the future, pass on the higher borrowing
costs to its customers. The company continues to be exposed to interest rate movements in the market. Also, any adverse changes in its
own credit ratings can lead to higher risk spread on its debt, and directly increase the borrowing costs of the Company. As Wellgistics
Health expands its business in the future, its investment in working capital is expected to increase, and consequently the ABL debt drawdown
will also be higher, which further increases the exposure to interest rate risks. All these factors could materially and adversely impact
Wellgistics Health’s business operations, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, its ratings impact the cost
and availability of future borrowings and, accordingly, its cost of capital. Wellgistics Health’s ratings reflect the opinions
of the ratings agencies as to our financial strength, operating performance and ability to meet Wellgistics Health’s debt obligations.
There can be no assurance that Wellgistics Health will achieve a particular rating or maintain a particular rating in the future.
Wellgistics
Health’s existing credit agreement and any other credit or similar agreements into which Wellgistics Health may enter in the future
may restrict its operations, particularly Wellgistics Health’s ability to respond to changes or to take certain actions regarding
its business.
Wellgistics
Health’s existing credit agreement contains a number of restrictive covenants that may impose operating and financial restrictions
on Wellgistics Health and limit its ability to engage in acts that may be in Wellgistics Health’s long-term best interests, including
restrictions on Wellgistics Health’s ability to incur indebtedness, grant liens, undergo certain fundamental changes, dispose of
assets, make certain investments, enter into certain transactions with affiliates, and make certain restricted payments, in each case
subject to limitations and exceptions set forth in the existing credit agreement.
The
existing credit agreement also contains customary events of default that include, among other things, certain payment defaults, covenant
defaults, cross-defaults to other indebtedness, change of control defaults, judgment defaults, and bankruptcy and insolvency defaults.
Such events of default may allow the creditors to accelerate the related debt and may result in the acceleration of any other debt to
which a cross-acceleration or cross-default provision applies, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operations,
and financial results. Furthermore, if Wellgistics Health is unable to repay the amounts due and payable under the existing credit agreement,
those lenders could proceed against the collateral granted to them to secure that indebtedness, which could force Wellgistics Health
into bankruptcy or liquidation. In the event that Wellgistics Health’s lenders accelerated the repayment of the borrowings, Wellgistics
Health may not have sufficient assets to repay that indebtedness. Any acceleration of amounts due under the existing credit agreement
would likely have a material adverse effect on Wellgistics Health. As a result of these restrictions, Wellgistics Health may be limited
in how Wellgistics Health conducts business, unable to raise additional debt or equity financing to operate during general economic or
business downturns, or unable to compete effectively or to take advantage of new business opportunities.
In
addition, Wellgistics Health may enter into other credit agreements or other debt arrangements from time to time which contain similar
or more extensive restrictive covenants and events of default, in which case Wellgistics Health may face similar or additional limitations
as a result of the terms of those credit agreements or other debt arrangements.
36
Risks
Related to Regulatory and Legal Considerations
Wellgistics
Health’s business is subject to substantial government regulation.
The
health care industry is heavily regulated, and Wellgistics Health must comply with extensive and complex laws and regulations at the
federal, state and local government levels. A number of these laws specifically relate to the provision of Medicare and Medicaid billing.
Anti-Kickback
Statutes
The
federal Anti-Kickback Statute prohibits the knowing and willful offer, payment, solicitation or receipt of remuneration to induce the
referral of a patient or the purchase, lease or order (or the arranging for or recommending of the purchase, lease or order) of health
care items or services paid for by federal health care programs, including Medicare or Medicaid. A violation does not require proof that
a person had actual knowledge of the statute or specific intent to violate the statute, and court decisions under the Anti-Kickback Statute
have consistently held that the law is violated where one purpose of a payment is to induce or reward referrals. Violation of the federal
anti-kickback statute could result in felony conviction, administrative penalties, civil liability (including penalties) under the False
Claims Act and/or exclusion from federal health care programs.
A
number of states have enacted anti-kickback laws (including so-called “fee splitting” laws) that sometimes apply not only
to state-sponsored health care programs but also to items or services that are paid for by private insurance and self-pay patients. State
anti-kickback laws can vary considerably in their applicability and scope and sometimes have fewer statutory and regulatory exceptions
than does the federal law. Enforcement of state anti-kickback laws varies widely and is often inconsistent and erratic.
Our
management carefully considers the importance of such anti-kickback laws when structuring company operations. That said, we cannot assure
that the applicable regulatory authorities will not determine that some of our arrangements with hospitals, surgical facilities, physicians,
or other referral sources violate the Anti-Kickback Statute or other applicable laws. An adverse determination could subject us to different
liabilities, including criminal penalties, civil monetary penalties and exclusion from participation in Medicare, Medicaid or other health
care programs, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Physician
Self- Referral (“Stark”) Laws
The
federal Stark Law, 42 U.S.C. § 1395nn, also known as the physician self-referral law, generally prohibits a physician from referring
Medicare and Medicaid patients to an entity (including hospitals) providing “designated health services,” if the physician
has a “financial relationship” with the entity, unless an exception applies. Designated health services include, among other
services, inpatient hospital services, outpatient prescription drug services, clinical laboratory services, certain diagnostic imaging
services, and other services that our affiliated physicians may order for their patients. The prohibition applies regardless of the reasons
for the financial relationship, unless an exception applies. The exceptions to the federal Stark Law are numerous and often complex.
The penalties for violating the Stark Law include civil penalties of up to $15,000 for each violation and potential civil liability (including
penalties) under the False Claims Act.
37
Some
states have enacted statutes and regulations concerning physician self-referrals ( i.e ., referrals by a physician to a health care
entity in which the physician has an ownership interest). Such physician self- referrals laws may apply to the referral of patients regardless
of payor source and/or type of health care service. These state laws may contain statutory and regulatory exceptions that are different
from those of the federal law and that may vary from state to state. Enforcement of state physician self-referral laws varies widely
and is often inconsistent and erratic.
Our
management carefully considers the importance of physician self-referral laws when structuring company operations. That said, we cannot
assure that the applicable regulatory authorities will not determine that some of our arrangements with physicians violate the Federal
Stark Law or other applicable laws. An adverse determination could subject us to different liabilities, including criminal penalties,
civil monetary penalties and exclusion from participation in Medicare, Medicaid or other health care programs, any of which could have
a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
False
Claims Act
The
federal False Claims Act, 31 U.S.C. § 3729, imposes civil penalties for knowingly submitting or causing the submission of a false
or fraudulent claim for payment to a government-sponsored program, such as Medicare and Medicaid. Violations of the False Claims Act
present civil liability of treble damages plus a penalty of at least $11,803 per false claim. The False Claims Act has “whistleblower”
or “ qui tam ” provisions that allow individuals to commence a civil action in the name of the government, and the whistleblower
is entitled to share in any subsequent recovery (plus attorney’s fees). Many states also have enacted civil statutes that largely
mirror the federal False Claims Act, but allow states to impose penalties in a state court.
The
False Claims Act has been used by the federal government and qui tam plaintiffs to bring enforcement actions under so-called “fraud
and abuse” laws like the federal Anti-Kickback Statute and the Stark Law. Such actions are not based on a contention that claims
for payment were factually false or inaccurate. Instead, such actions are based on the theory that accurate claims are deemed to be false/
fraudulent if there has been noncompliance with some other material law or regulation. The existence of the False Claims Act, under which
so-called qui tam plaintiffs can allege liability for a wide range of regulatory noncompliance, increases the potential for such
actions to be brought and has increased the potential financial exposure for such actions. These actions are costly and time-consuming
to defend.
Our
management carefully considers the importance of compliance with all applicable laws and when structuring company operations. Our management
is aware of and actively works to minimize risk related to potential qui tam plaintiffs. That said, we cannot assure that the
applicable enforcement authorities or qui tam plaintiffs will not allege violations of the False Claims Act or analogous state
false claims laws. A finding of liability under the False Claims Act could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition or results of operations.
State
Licensure and Accreditation
States
have a wide variety of health care laws and regulations that potentially affect our operations and the operations of our partners. For
example: (1) many states have implemented laws and regulations related to so-called “tele-health,” but whether those laws
apply to our operations, and the obligations they impose, vary significantly; (2) some states have so-called corporate practice of medicine
prohibitions, and such prohibitions are used to indirectly regulate ownership of heath care companies and/or management companies; and
(3) some states have “surprise billing” or out-of-network billing laws that impose a variety of obligations on health care
providers and health plans. The failure to comply with all state regulatory obligations could be used by health plans to deny payment
or to recoup funds, and any noncompliance could subject us to penalties or limitations that could have a material adverse effect on our
business, financial condition or results of operations.
In
addition, our partners’ health care facilities and professionals are subject to professional and private licensing, certification
and accreditation requirements. These include, but are not limited to, requirements imposed by Medicare, Medicaid, state licensing authorities,
voluntary accrediting organizations and third-party private payors. Receipt and renewal of such licenses, certifications and accreditations
are often based on inspections, surveys, audits, investigations or other reviews, some of which may require affirmative compliance actions
by us that could be burdensome and expensive. The applicable standards may change in the future. There can be no assurance that we will
be able to maintain all necessary licenses or certifications in good standing or that they will not be required to incur substantial
costs in doing so. The failure to maintain all necessary licenses, certifications and accreditations in good standing, or the expenditure
of substantial funds to maintain them, could have an adverse effect on our business.
38
Health
Information Privacy and Security Standards
The
privacy and data security regulations under HIPPA, as amended, contain detailed requirements concerning (1) the use and disclosure of
individually identifiable PHI; (2) computer and data security standards regarding the protection of electronic PHI including storage,
utilization, access to and transmission; and (3) notification to individuals and the federal government in the event of a breach of unsecured
PHI. HIPAA covered entities and business associates must implement certain administrative, physical, and technical security standards
to protect the integrity, confidentiality and availability of certain electronic health information received, maintained, or transmitted.
Violations of the HIPAA privacy and Security Rules may result in civil and criminal penalties. In the event of a breach, a HIPAA covered
entity must promptly notify affected individuals of a breach. All breaches must also be reported to the federal government. Where a breach
affects more than 500 individuals, additional reporting obligations apply. In addition to federal enforcement, State attorneys general
may bring civil actions on behalf of state residents for violations of the HIPAA privacy and Security Rules, obtain damages on behalf
of state residents, and enjoin further violations. Many states also have laws that protect the privacy and security of confidential,
personal information, which may be similar to or even more stringent than HIPAA. Some of these state laws may impose fines and penalties
on violators and may afford private rights of action to individuals who believe their personal information has been misused. We expect
increased federal and state privacy and security enforcement efforts.
Our
management carefully considers the importance of compliance with patient privacy and data security regulations when structuring company
operations. Our management is aware of and actively works to minimize risk related to patient privacy and data security. That said, we
cannot assure that a breach will not occur or that the applicable enforcement authorities will not allege violations of HIPAA’s
patient privacy and data security regulations. A breach or an allegation of noncompliance with HIPAA’s patient privacy and data
security regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
Changes
in the healthcare industry and regulatory environments may adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s businesses.
Political,
economic and regulatory influences are subjecting the healthcare industry to significant changes that could adversely affect Wellgistics
Health’s results of operations. In recent years, the healthcare industry has undergone significant changes in an effort to reduce
costs and government spending. These changes include an increased reliance on managed care; cuts in certain Medicare and Medicaid funding
in the U.S. and the funding of governmental payers in foreign jurisdictions; consolidation of competitors, suppliers and other market
participants; and the development of large, sophisticated purchasing groups. In addition, the IRA took effect in 2023. The IRA includes,
among other things, policies that are designed to have a direct impact on drug prices and reduce drug spending by the federal government.
For example, the IRA requires drug manufacturers to pay rebates to Medicare if they increase prices faster than inflation for drugs used
by Medicare beneficiaries. The mechanics of the rebate calculation would mimic those of the Medicaid rebate, but the expansion of inflation-based
rebates may further complicate pricing strategies, particularly as to the launch of Wellgistics Health’s new products. The IRA
could have the effect of reducing the prices Wellgistics Health can charge and reimbursement Wellgistics Health receives for Wellgistics
Health’s products, thereby reducing Wellgistics Health’s profitability.
Wellgistics
Health expects the healthcare industry continue to change significantly in the future. Some of these potential changes, such as a reduction
in governmental funding for certain healthcare services or adverse changes in legislation or regulations governing prescription drug
pricing, healthcare services or mandated benefits, may cause customers to reduce the amount of Wellgistics Health’s products and
services they purchase or the price they are willing to pay for Wellgistics Health’s products and services. Wellgistics Health
expects continued governmental and private payer pressure to reduce pharmaceutical pricing, and these pressures could be further exacerbated
if payer deficits or shortfalls increase due to COVID-19 or otherwise. Changes in pharmaceutical manufacturers’ pricing or distribution
policies and practices as well as applicable government regulations, including, for example, in connection with the federal 340B drug
pricing program, could also significantly reduce Wellgistics Health’s profitability.
39
Wellgistics
Health will be exposed to risks related to litigation and other legal proceedings.
Wellgistics
Health operates in a highly regulated and litigious environment. Wellgistics Health may become involved in the following types of legal
proceedings but not limited to litigation, investigations, inspections, audits, claims, inquiries and similar actions by pharmacy, healthcare,
tax, and other governmental authorities. Like other companies in the retail pharmacy, healthcare services and pharmaceutical wholesale
industries, Wellgistics Health is subject to extensive regulation by federal, state and local government agencies in the U.S. and other
countries in which it operates. There continues to be a heightened level of review and/or audit by regulatory authorities of, and increased
litigation regarding business, compliance and reporting practices of Wellgistics Health and other industry participants. If Wellgistics
Health were to be exposed to litigation or other legal proceedings, it could have a material adverse effect on Wellgistics Health’s
business, financial condition, cash flows, or results of operations.
A
significant change in, or noncompliance with, governmental regulations and other legal requirements could have a material adverse effect
on Wellgistics Health’s reputation and profitability.
Wellgistics
Health operates in complex, highly regulated environments around the world and could be materially and adversely affected by changes
to applicable legal requirements including the related interpretations and enforcement practices, new legal requirements and/or any failure
to comply with applicable regulations. Wellgistics Health’s businesses is subject to numerous country, state and local regulations
including licensing, billing practices, utilization and other requirements for pharmacies and reimbursement arrangements. The regulations
to which Wellgistics Health is subject include, but are not limited to: country and state registration and regulation of pharmacies and
drug discount card programs; dispensing and sale of controlled substances and products containing pseudoephedrine; applicable governmental
payer regulations including Medicare and Medicaid; data privacy and security laws and regulations including HIPAA; the Patient Protection
and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Healthcare and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, or any successor thereto; laws and regulations
relating to the protection of the environment and health and safety matters, each of which continues to evolve, including those governing
exposure to, and the management and disposal of, hazardous substances; regulations regarding food and drug safety including those of
the FDA and the DEA, trade regulations including those of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, and consumer protection and safety regulations
including those of the Consumer Product Safety Commission, as well as state regulatory authorities, governing the availability, sale,
advertisement and promotion of products Wellgistics Health will sell as well as Wellgistics Health’s loyalty and drug discount
card programs; anti-kickback laws; false claims laws; laws against the corporate practice of medicine; and national and state laws governing
healthcare fraud and abuse and the practice of the profession of pharmacy. For example, in the U.S., the DEA, FDA and various other regulatory
authorities regulate the distribution and dispensing of pharmaceuticals and controlled substances. Wellgistics Health is required to
hold valid DEA and state-level licenses, meet various security and operating standards and comply with the federal and various state-controlled
substance acts and related regulations governing the sale, dispensing, disposal, holding and distribution of controlled substances. The
DEA, FDA and state regulatory authorities have broad enforcement powers, including the ability to seize or recall products and impose
significant criminal, civil and administrative sanctions for violations of these laws and regulations. As noted above, the IRA includes
policies that are designed to have a direct impact on drug prices and reduce drug spending by the federal government. Wellgistics Health
is also governed by national and state laws of general applicability, including laws regulating matters of working conditions, health
and safety and equal employment opportunity and other labor and employment matters as well as employee benefit, competition and antitrust
matters. In addition, Wellgistics Health could have significant exposure if Wellgistics Health is found to have infringed another party’s
intellectual property rights.
Changes
in laws, regulations and policies and the related interpretations and enforcement practices may alter the landscape in which Wellgistics
Health will do business and may significantly affect Wellgistics Health’s cost of doing business. The impact of new laws, regulations
and policies and the related interpretations and enforcement practices generally cannot be predicted, and changes in applicable laws,
regulations and policies and the related interpretations and enforcement practices may require extensive system and operational changes,
be difficult to implement, increase Wellgistics Health’s operating costs and require significant capital expenditures. Untimely
compliance or noncompliance with applicable laws and regulations could result in the imposition of civil and criminal penalties that
could adversely affect the continued operation of Wellgistics Health’s businesses, including: suspension of payments from government
programs; loss of required government certifications; loss of authorizations to participate in or exclusion from government programs,
including the Medicare and Medicaid programs; loss of licenses; and significant fines or monetary penalties. Any failure to comply with
applicable regulatory requirements in which Wellgistics Health will operate could result in significant legal and financial exposure,
damage to Wellgistics Health’s reputation and brand, and have a material adverse effect on Wellgistics Health’s business
operations, financial condition and results of operations.
40
Wellgistics
Health could be adversely affected by product liability, product recall, personal injury or other health and safety issues.
Wellgistics
Health could be adversely impacted by the supply of defective or expired products, including the infiltration of counterfeit products
into the supply chain, errors in re-labeling of products, product tampering, product recall and contamination or product mishandling
issues. Through Wellgistics Health’s pharmacy, wholesale distribution centers, and Wellgistics Health’s wholesale and manufacturer
relationships acquired by Wellgistics Health as a result of the Wellgistics Acquisition, Wellgistics Health will also be exposed to risks
relating to the products and services Wellgistics Health will offer. Errors in the dispensing and packaging of pharmaceuticals, including
related counseling, and in the provision of other healthcare services could lead to serious injury or death. Product liability or personal
injury claims may be asserted against Wellgistics Health and mandatory or voluntary product recalls may apply to Wellgistics Health with
respect to any of the retail products or pharmaceuticals Wellgistics Health will sell or services Wellgistics Health will provide. For
example, from time to time, the FDA issues statements alerting patients that products in Wellgistics Health’s supply chain may
contain impurities or harmful substances, and claims relating to the sale or distribution of such products may be asserted against Wellgistics
Health or arise from these statements. Wellgistics Health could suffer significant reputational damage and financial liability if Wellgistics
Health, or any affiliated entities or third-party healthcare providers that Wellgistics Health will do business with, experience any
of the foregoing health and safety issues or incidents, which could have a material adverse effect on Wellgistics Health’s business
operations, financial condition and results of operations.
Wellgistics
Health could be subject to adverse changes in tax laws, regulations and interpretations or challenges to Wellgistics Health’s tax
positions.
As
a corporation operating within the U.S., from time to time, changes in tax laws or regulations may be proposed or enacted that could
adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s overall tax liability. There can be no assurance that changes in tax laws or regulations
will not materially and adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s effective tax rate, tax payments, financial condition and results
of operations. Similarly, changes in tax laws and regulations that impact Wellgistics Health’s customers and counterparties, or
the economy generally may also impact Wellgistics Health’s financial condition and results of operations.
Tax
laws and regulations are complex and subject to varying interpretations, and Wellgistics Health is subject to regular review and audit
by tax authorities. Any adverse outcome of such a review or audit could have a negative impact on Wellgistics Health’s effective
tax rate, tax payments, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the determination of Wellgistics Health’s income
tax provision and other tax liabilities requires significant judgment, and there are many transactions and calculations where the ultimate
tax determination is uncertain. The ultimate tax determination may differ from the amounts recorded in Wellgistics Health’s financial
statements and may materially affect Wellgistics Health’s results of operations in the period or periods for which such determination
is made. Any significant failure to comply with applicable tax laws and regulations in all relevant jurisdictions could give rise to
substantial penalties and liabilities. Any changes in enacted tax laws, rules or regulatory or judicial interpretations; or any change
in the pronouncements relating to accounting for income taxes could materially and adversely impact Wellgistics Health’s effective
tax rate, tax payments, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks
Related to Wellgistics Health’s Intellectual Property
Despite
the actions Wellgistics Health will take to defend and protect its intellectual property, Wellgistics Health may not be able to adequately
protect or enforce its intellectual property rights or prevent unauthorized parties from copying or reverse engineering its solutions.
Wellgistics Health’s efforts to protect and enforce its intellectual property rights and prevent third parties from violating its
rights may be costly.
The
success of Wellgistics Health’s products and its business depend in part on Wellgistics Health’s ability to obtain patents
and other intellectual property rights and maintain adequate legal protection for its products in the United States and other international
jurisdictions. Wellgistics Health will rely on a combination of patent, service mark, trademark and trade secret laws, as well as confidentiality
procedures and contractual restrictions, to establish and protect its proprietary rights, all of which provide only limited protection.
Wellgistics
Health cannot assure that any patents will be issued with respect to its currently pending patent applications or that any trademarks
will be registered with respect to its currently pending applications in a manner that gives Wellgistics Health adequate defensive protection
or competitive advantages, if at all, or that any patents issued to Wellgistics Health or any trademarks registered by it will not be
challenged, invalidated or circumvented. Wellgistics Health has filed for patents and trademarks in the United States and in certain
international jurisdictions, but such protections may not be available in all countries in which it operates or in which Wellgistics
Health seeks to enforce its intellectual property rights, or may be difficult to enforce in practice. Wellgistics Health’s currently-issued
patents and trademarks and any patents and trademarks that may be issued or registered, as applicable, in the future with respect to
pending or future applications may not provide sufficiently broad protection or may not prove to be enforceable in actions against alleged
infringers. Wellgistics Health’s foreign intellectual property portfolio will not as comprehensive as its U.S. intellectual property
portfolio and may not protect its intellectual property in some countries where its products are sold or may be sold in the future. Wellgistics
Health cannot be certain that the steps it has taken will prevent unauthorized use of its technology or the reverse engineering of its
technology. Moreover, others may independently develop technologies that are competitive to Wellgistics Health or infringe Wellgistics
Health’s intellectual property.
Protecting
against the unauthorized use of Wellgistics Health’s intellectual property, products and other proprietary rights is expensive
and difficult, particularly internationally. Wellgistics Health believes that its patents are foundational in the area of healthcare
products and intends to enforce Wellgistics Health’s intellectual property portfolio. Unauthorized parties may attempt to copy
or reverse engineer Wellgistics Health’s healthcare technology or certain aspects of Wellgistics Health’s solutions that
it considers proprietary. Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce or defend Wellgistics Health’s intellectual property
rights, to prevent unauthorized parties from copying or reverse engineering its solutions, to determine the validity and scope of the
proprietary rights of others or to block the importation of infringing products into the United States.
Any
such litigation, whether initiated by Wellgistics Health or a third party, could result in substantial costs and diversion of management
resources, either of which could adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s business, operating results and financial condition. Even
if it obtains favorable outcomes in litigation, Wellgistics Health may not be able to obtain adequate remedies, especially in the context
of unauthorized parties copying or reverse engineering its solutions.
Further,
many of Wellgistics Health’s competitors have the ability to dedicate substantially greater resources to defending intellectual
property infringement claims and to enforcing their intellectual property rights than Wellgistics Health has. Attempts to enforce its
rights against third parties could also provoke these third parties to assert their own intellectual property or other rights against
Wellgistics Health or result in a holding that invalidates or narrows the scope of Wellgistics Health’s rights, in whole or in
part. Effective patent, trademark, service mark, copyright and trade secret protection may not be available in every country in which
Wellgistics Health’s products will be available and competitors based in other countries may sell infringing products in one or
more markets. Failure to adequately protect Wellgistics Health’s intellectual property rights could result in Wellgistics Health’s
competitors offering similar products, potentially resulting in the loss of some of Wellgistics Health’s competitive advantage
and a decrease in its revenue, which would adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s business, operating results, financial condition
and prospects.
Third-party
claims that Wellgistics Health is infringing intellectual property, whether successful or not, could subject it to costly and time-consuming
litigation or expensive licenses, and its business could be adversely affected.
Although
Wellgistics Health may hold key patents related to its products, a number of companies, both within and outside of the healthcare industry,
hold other patents covering aspects of healthcare products. In addition to these patents, participants in this industry typically also
protect their technology, especially embedded software, through copyrights and trade secrets.
42
As
a result, there is frequent litigation based on allegations of infringement, misappropriation or other violations of intellectual property
rights. Wellgistics Health in the future may receive inquiries from other intellectual property holders and may become subject to claims
that it infringes their intellectual property rights, particularly as Wellgistics Health expands its presence in the market, expands
to new use cases and faces increasing competition. In addition, parties may claim that the names and branding of Wellgistics Health’s
products infringe their trademark rights in certain countries or territories. If such a claim were to prevail, Wellgistics Health may
have to change the names and branding of its products in the affected territories and it could incur other costs.
Wellgistics
Health will have a number of agreements in effect, pursuant to which it has agreed to defend, indemnify and hold harmless its customers,
suppliers, and channel partners and other partners from damages and costs which may arise from the infringement by Wellgistics Health’s
products of third-party patents or other intellectual property rights. The scope of these indemnity obligations varies, but may, in some
instances, include indemnification for damages and expenses, including attorneys’ fees. Wellgistics Health’s insurance may
not cover all intellectual property infringement claims. A claim that its products infringe a third party’s intellectual property
rights, even if untrue, could adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s relationships with its customers, may deter future customers
from purchasing its products and could expose Wellgistics Health to costly litigation and settlement expenses. Even if Wellgistics Health
is not a party to any litigation between a customer and a third party relating to infringement by its products, an adverse outcome in
any such litigation could make it more difficult for Wellgistics Health to defend its products against intellectual property infringement
claims in any subsequent litigation in which it is a named party. Any of these results could adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s
brand and operating results.
Wellgistics
Health may in the future need to initiate infringement claims or litigation in order to try to protect its intellectual property rights.
In addition to litigation where Wellgistics Health is a plaintiff, Wellgistics Health’s defense of intellectual property rights
claims brought against it or its customers, suppliers and channel partners, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, expensive
to litigate or settle, divert management resources and attention and force Wellgistics Health to acquire intellectual property rights
and licenses, which may involve substantial royalty or other payments and may not be available on acceptable terms or at all. Further,
a party making such a claim, if successful, could secure a judgment that requires Wellgistics Health to pay substantial damages or obtain
an injunction, and Wellgistics Health may also lose the opportunity to license its technology to others or to collect royalty payments.
An adverse determination also could invalidate or narrow Wellgistics Health’s intellectual property rights and adversely affect
its ability to offer its products to its customers and may require that Wellgistics Health procure or develop substitute products that
do not infringe, which could require significant effort and expense. Any of these events could adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s
business, reputation, operating results, financial condition and prospects.
Wellgistics
Health’s intellectual property applications for registration may not issue or be registered, which may have a material adverse
effect on Wellgistics Health’s ability to prevent others from commercially exploiting products similar to Wellgistics Health’s.
Wellgistics
Health cannot be certain that it is the first inventor of the subject matter to which it has filed a particular patent application, or
if it is the first party to file such a patent application. If another party has filed a patent application to the same subject matter
as Wellgistics Health has, Wellgistics Health may not be entitled to the protection sought by the patent application. Wellgistics Health
also cannot be certain whether the claims included in a patent application will ultimately be allowed in the applicable issued patent
or the timing of any approval or grant of a patent application. Further, the scope of protection of issued patent claims is often difficult
to determine. As a result, Wellgistics Health cannot be certain that the patent applications that it intends to file will issue, or that
its issued patents will afford, protection against competitors with similar technology. In addition, Wellgistics Health’s competitors
may design around Wellgistics Health’s issued patents, which may adversely affect Wellgistics Health’s business, prospects,
financial condition and operating results.
43
In
addition to patented technology, Wellgistics Health will rely on its unpatented proprietary technology, trade secrets, designs, experiences,
work flows, data, processes, software and know-how.
Wellgistics
Health will rely on proprietary information (such as trade secrets, designs, experiences, work flows, data, know-how and confidential
information) to protect intellectual property that may not be patentable or subject to copyright, trademark, trade dress or service mark
protection, or that Wellgistics Health believes is best protected by means that do not require public disclosure. Wellgistics Health
generally will seek to protect this proprietary information by entering into confidentiality agreements, or consulting, services or employment
agreements that contain non-disclosure and non-use provisions with its employees, consultants, contractors and third parties. However,
Wellgistics Health may fail to enter into the necessary agreements, and even once entered into, these agreements may be breached or may
otherwise fail to prevent disclosure, third-party infringement or misappropriation of its proprietary information, may be limited as
to their term and may not provide an adequate remedy in the event of unauthorized disclosure or use of proprietary information. Wellgistics
Health will have limited control over the protection of trade secrets used by its current or future manufacturing partners and suppliers
and could lose future trade secret protection if any unauthorized disclosure of such information occurs. In addition, Wellgistics Health’s
proprietary information may otherwise become known or be independently developed by its competitors or other third parties. To the extent
that its employees, consultants, contractors, advisors and other third parties use intellectual property owned by others in their work
for Wellgistics Health, disputes may arise as to the rights in related or resulting know-how and inventions. Costly and time- consuming
litigation could be necessary to enforce and determine the scope of Wellgistics Health’s proprietary rights, and failure to obtain
or maintain protection for its proprietary information could adversely affect its competitive business position. Furthermore, laws regarding
trade secret rights in certain markets where Wellgistics Health operates may afford little or no protection to its trade secrets.
Wellgistics
Health also will rely on physical and electronic security measures to protect its proprietary information, but it cannot provide assurance
that these security measures will not be breached or provide adequate protection for its property. There is a risk that third parties
may obtain and improperly utilize Wellgistics Health’s proprietary information to its competitive disadvantage. Wellgistics Health
may not be able to detect or prevent the unauthorized use of such information or take appropriate and timely steps to enforce its intellectual
property rights.
Wellgistics
Health may be subject to damages resulting from claims that it or its current or former employees have wrongfully used or disclosed alleged
trade secrets of its employees’ former employers. Wellgistics Health may be subject to damages if its current or former employees
wrongfully use or disclose Wellgistics Health’s trade secrets.
Wellgistics
Health may be subject to claims that it or its current or former employees have inadvertently or otherwise used or disclosed trade secrets
or other proprietary information of a current or former employee’s former employer. Litigation may be necessary to defend against
these claims. If Wellgistics Health fails in defending such claims, in addition to paying monetary damages, it may lose valuable intellectual
property rights or personnel. A loss of key personnel or their work product could hamper or prevent Wellgistics Health’s ability
to commercialize its products, which could severely harm its business. Even if Wellgistics Health is successful in defending against
these claims, litigation could result in substantial costs and demand on management resources.
Risks
Related to Being a Public Company
Wellgistics
Health incurs increased costs as a result of operating as a public company, and its management will devote substantial time to compliance
with its public company responsibilities and corporate governance practices.
Wellgistics
Health incurs significant legal, accounting and other expenses that it did not incur as a private company. As a public company, Wellgistics
Health is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, and the Dodd-Frank Act, as well as rules
adopted, and to be adopted, by the SEC and Nasdaq, and other applicable securities rules and regulations, which impose various requirements
on public companies, including the establishment and maintenance of effective disclosure and financial controls and changes in corporate
governance practices.
Wellgistics
Health’s management and other personnel currently and will continue to need to devote a substantial amount of time to these public
company requirements. Moreover, Wellgistics Health expects these rules and regulations to substantially increase its legal and financial
compliance costs and to make some activities more time-consuming and costly as compared to when Wellgistics Health was a private company.
Wellgistics Health may need to hire additional legal, accounting and financial staff with appropriate public company experience and technical
accounting knowledge and maintain an internal audit function.
44
In
addition, changing laws, regulations, and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure are creating uncertainty for
public companies, increasing legal and financial compliance costs, and making some activities more time consuming. These laws, regulations,
and standards are subject to varying interpretations and may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing
bodies. This could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to
disclosure and governance practices. Wellgistics Health intends to invest resources to comply with evolving laws, regulations, and standards,
and this investment may result in increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management’s time and attention
from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. If Wellgistics Health’s efforts to comply with new laws, regulations,
and standards differ from the activities intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities related to their application and
practice, regulatory authorities may initiate legal proceedings against Wellgistics Health and its business may be adversely affected.
The
rules and regulations applicable to public companies make it more expensive for Wellgistics Health to obtain and maintain director and
officer liability insurance. These factors could also make it more difficult for Wellgistics Health to attract and retain qualified members
of its board of directors, particularly to serve on Wellgistics Health’s audit committee and compensation committee, and qualified
executive officers.
Wellgistics
Health’s management team has limited experience managing a public company.
Most
of the members of Wellgistics Health’s management team have limited to no experience managing a publicly traded company, interacting
with public company investors and complying with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to public companies. Wellgistics Health’s
management team has not worked together at prior companies that were publicly traded and the team may not successfully or efficiently
manage their new roles and responsibilities.
Wellgistics
Health’s ability to be successful will depend upon the efforts of Wellgistics Health’s board of directors and key personnel
and the loss of such persons could negatively impact the operations and profitability of Wellgistics Health’s business.
Wellgistics
Health’s ability to be successful will be dependent upon the efforts of Wellgistics Health’s board of directors and key personnel.
Wellgistics Health’s cannot guarantee that its board of directors and key personnel will be effective or successful or remain with
Wellgistics Health. In addition to the other challenges they will face, such individuals may be unfamiliar with the requirements of operating
a public company, which could cause Wellgistics Health’s management to have to expend time and resources helping them become familiar
with such requirements.
Risks
Related to Ownership of Wellgistics Health’s Common Stock
Delaware
State Law includes anti-takeover provisions.
Delaware
law contains provisions that could have the effect of rendering more difficult, delaying or preventing an acquisition deemed undesirable
by our board of directors, such as:
●
authorizing
the issuance of “blank check” preferred stock that could be issued by our board of directors to increase the number of
outstanding shares and thwart a takeover attempt;
●
establishing
a classified board of directors so that not all members of our board of directors are elected at one time;
●
requiring
cause to remove directors;
●
prohibiting
the use of cumulative voting for the election of directors;
●
limiting
the ability of stockholders to call special meetings or amend our bylaws;
●
requiring
all stockholder actions to be taken at a meeting of our stockholders; and
●
establishing
advance notice and duration of ownership requirements for nominations for election to the board of directors or for proposing matters
that can be acted upon by stockholders at stockholder meetings.
45
These
provisions, alone or together, could delay or prevent hostile takeovers and changes in control or changes in our management to the extent
permitted, whether by our certificate of incorporation, bylaws, or merely as a function of Delaware law. Any provision of our certificate
of incorporation, bylaws, or Delaware law that has the effect of delaying, preventing or deterring a change in control could limit the
opportunity for our stockholders to receive a premium for their shares of our Common Stock and could also affect the price that some
investors are willing to pay for our Common Stock.
Claims
for indemnification by Wellgistics Health’s directors and officers may reduce Wellgistics Health’s available funds to satisfy
successful third-party claims against Wellgistics Health and may reduce the amount of money available to Wellgistics Health.
Delaware
law empowers us to indemnify our directors and officers against expenses relating to certain actions, suits or proceedings as provided
for therein. In order for such indemnification to be available, the applicable director or officer must not have acted in a manner that
constituted a breach of his or her fiduciary duties and involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law, or must
have acted in good faith and reasonably believed that his or her conduct was in, or not opposed to, our best interests. In the event
of a criminal action, the applicable director or officer must not have had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
We
may indemnify each of our present and future directors, officers, employees or agents who becomes a party or is threatened to be made
a party to any suit or proceeding, whether pending, completed or merely threatened, and whether said suit or proceeding is civil, criminal,
administrative, investigative, or otherwise, except an action by or in the right of Wellgistics Health, by reason of the fact that he
is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of Wellgistics Health, or is or was serving at the request of Wellgistics Health as
a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, or other enterprise, against expenses,
including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
by him in connection with the action, suit, proceeding or settlement, provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner which
he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of Wellgistics Health, and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
The
expenses of directors, officers, employees or agents of Wellgistics Health incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit, or
proceeding may be paid by Wellgistics Health as they are incurred and in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit, or proceeding,
if and only if the director, officer, employee or agent undertakes to repay said expenses to Wellgistics Health if it is ultimately determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation.
No
indemnification shall be applied, and any advancement of expenses to or on behalf of any director, officer, employee or agent must be
returned to Wellgistics Health, if a final adjudication establishes that the person’s acts or omissions involved a breach of any
fiduciary duties, where applicable, intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of the law which was material to the cause of
action.
Delaware
law further provides that a corporation may purchase and maintain insurance or make other financial arrangements on behalf of any person
who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise for any liability
asserted against him and liability and expenses incurred by him in his capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent, or arising
out of his status as such, whether or not the corporation has the authority to indemnify him against such liability and expenses. We
have secured a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy. We expect that we will continue to maintain such a policy.
46
If
securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about Wellgistics Health, its business, or its
market, or if they change their recommendations regarding Wellgistics Health’s securities adversely, the price and trading volume
of Wellgistics Health’s securities could decline.
The
trading market for Wellgistics Health’s securities will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts
may publish about Wellgistics Health, its business, market or competitors. Securities and industry analysts do not currently, and may
never, publish research on Wellgistics Health. If no securities or industry analysts commence coverage of Wellgistics Health, Wellgistics
Health’s share price and trading volume would likely be negatively impacted. If any of the analysts who may cover Wellgistics Health
change their recommendation regarding Wellgistics Health Common Stock adversely, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about
Wellgistics Health’s competitors, the price of shares of Wellgistics Health Common Stock would likely decline. If any analyst who
may cover Wellgistics Health were to cease coverage of Wellgistics Health or fail to regularly publish reports on it, Wellgistics Health
could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause its share price or trading volume to decline.
There
can be no assurance that Wellgistics Health will be able to comply with the continued listing standards of Nasdaq.
Wellgistics
Health’s common stock is listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “WGRX.” If Nasdaq delists Wellgistics Health’s shares
from trading on its exchange for failure to meet the listing standards, Wellgistics Health and its stockholders could face significant
material adverse consequences including, but not limited to:
●
a
limited availability of market quotations for Wellgistics Health’s securities;
●
reduced
liquidity for Wellgistics Health’s securities;
●
a
determination that Wellgistics Health Common Stock is a “penny stock” which will require brokers trading in Wellgistics
Health Common Stock to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary
trading market for Wellgistics Health Common Stock;
●
a
limited amount of analyst coverage; and
●
a
decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.
The
National Securities Markets Improvement Act of 1996, which is a federal statute, prevents or preempts the states from regulating the
sale of certain securities, which are referred to as “covered securities.” Because Wellgistics Health common stock is listed
on Nasdaq, it is a covered security. Although the states are preempted from regulating the sale of Wellgistics Health securities, the
federal statute does allow the states to investigate companies if there is a suspicion of fraud, and, if there is a finding of fraudulent
activity, then the states can regulate or bar the sale of covered securities in a particular case. While Wellgistics Health is not aware
of a state, other than the State of Idaho, having used these powers to prohibit or restrict the sale of securities issued by blank check
companies, certain state securities regulators view blank check companies unfavorably and might use these powers, or threaten to use
these powers, to hinder the sale of securities of blank check companies in their states. Further, if Wellgistics Health was no longer
listed on Nasdaq, Wellgistics Health’s securities would not be covered securities and Wellgistics Health would be subject to regulation
in each state in which Wellgistics Health offers its securities.
Our
common stock is publicly traded and may be subject to the penny stock rules which may make it more difficult to sell our common stock.
The
SEC has adopted regulations which generally define a “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price, as
defined, less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our common stock
is publicly traded and may be covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers
who sell to persons other than established customers and accredited investors, such as institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000
or an individual with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with his or her spouse.
For transactions covered by this rule, the broker-dealers must make a special suitability determination for the purchase and receive
the purchaser’s written agreement of the transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the rule may affect the ability of broker/dealers
to sell our securities and also affect the ability of our stockholders to sell their shares in the secondary market.
An
active market for Wellgistics Health’s securities may not develop, which would adversely affect the liquidity and price of Wellgistics
Health’s securities.
The
price of Wellgistics Health’s securities may vary significantly due to factors specific to Wellgistics Health as well as to general
market or economic conditions. Furthermore, an active trading market for Wellgistics Health’s securities may never develop or,
if developed, it may not be sustained. Holders of Wellgistics Health’s securities may be unable to sell their securities unless
a market can be established and sustained.
47
The
market price of Wellgistics Health Common Stock may decline as a result of various market factors.
Fluctuations
in the price of Wellgistics Health’s securities could contribute to the loss of all or part of your investment. Prior to the effectiveness
of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, there has not been a public market for Wellgistics Health common
stock. Accordingly, the valuation ascribed to Wellgistics Health may not be indicative of the price that will prevail in the trading
market. If an active market for Wellgistics Health’s securities develops and continues, the trading price of Wellgistics Health’s
securities could be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, some of which will be beyond Wellgistics
Health’s control. Any of the factors listed below could have a material adverse effect on your investment in Wellgistics Health’s
securities and Wellgistics Health’s securities may trade at prices significantly below the price you paid for them. In such circumstances,
the trading price of Wellgistics Health’s securities may not recover and may experience a further decline.
The
market price of Wellgistics Health Common Stock may decline for a number of reasons including if:
●
investors
react negatively to the prospects of Wellgistics Health’s business;
●
Wellgistics
Health’s business and prospects is not consistent with the expectations of financial or industry analysts;
●
Wellgistics
Health does not achieve the perceived benefits of the initial public offering as rapidly or to the extent anticipated by financial
or industry analysts;
●
actual
or anticipated fluctuations in Wellgistics Health’s quarterly financial results or the quarterly financial results of companies
perceived to be similar to it;
●
changes
in the market’s expectations about Wellgistics Health’s operating results;
●
success
of competitors;
●
changes
in financial estimates and recommendations by securities analysts concerning Wellgistics Health or the health care industry in general;
●
operating
and share price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to Wellgistics Health;
●
Wellgistics
Health’s ability to market new and enhanced products and technologies on a timely basis;
●
changes
in laws and regulations affecting Wellgistics Health’s business;
●
Wellgistics
Health’s ability to meet compliance requirements;
●
commencement
of, or involvement in, litigation involving Wellgistics Health;
●
changes
in Wellgistics Health’s capital structure, such as future issuances of securities or the incurrence of additional debt;
●
the
volume of Wellgistics Health’s shares of Common Stock available for public sale; or
●
any
major change in Wellgistics Health’s board of directors or management.
Furthermore,
broad market and industry factors may materially harm the market price of our securities irrespective of our operating performance. Certain
companies have at times experienced extreme price run-ups followed by rapid price declines and high volatility unrelated or disproportionate
to the operating performance of the particular companies affected. Recently, this has especially been seen with companies conducting
an initial public offering, particularly among companies with smaller public floats. The trading prices and valuations of these stocks,
and of our securities, may not be predictable and may make it difficult for prospective investors to assess the rapidly changing value
of our securities. A loss of investor confidence in the market for retail stocks or the stocks of other companies which investors perceive
to be similar to Wellgistics Health could depress our stock price regardless of our business, prospects, financial conditions or results
of operations. A decline in the market price of our securities also could adversely affect its ability to issue additional securities
and its ability to obtain additional financing in the future..
48
Future
sales, or the perception of future sales, by Wellgistics Health or its stockholders in the public market could cause the market price
for Wellgistics Health Common Stock to decline.
The
sale of shares of Wellgistics Health common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales could occur, could harm the
prevailing market price of shares of Wellgistics Health common stock. These sales, or the possibility that these sales may occur, also
might make it more difficult for Wellgistics Health to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that it deems appropriate.
In
the future, Wellgistics Health may also issue its securities in connection with investments or acquisitions. The amount of shares of
Wellgistics Health common stock issued in connection with an investment or acquisition could constitute a material portion of the then-outstanding
shares of Wellgistics Health common stock. Any issuance of additional securities in connection with investments or acquisitions may result
in additional dilution to Wellgistics Health stockholders.
Wellgistics
Health qualifies as an “emerging growth company” as well as a smaller reporting company within the meaning of the Securities
Act, and if Wellgistics Health takes advantage of certain exemptions from disclosure requirements available to emerging growth companies
or smaller reporting companies, this could make Wellgistics Health’s securities less attractive to investors and may make it more
difficult to compare Wellgistics Health’s performance with other public companies.
Wellgistics
Health qualifies as an “emerging growth company” within the meaning of the Section 2(a)(19) of the Securities Act, as modified
by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). As such, Wellgistics Health may take advantage of certain
exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies for
as long as Wellgistics Health continues to be an emerging growth company, including, but not limited to: (i) not being required to comply
with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (ii) reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive
compensation in Wellgistics Health’s periodic reports and proxy statements and (iii) exemptions from the requirements of holding
a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
As a result, Wellgistics Health’s stockholders may not have access to certain information they may deem important. Wellgistics
Health will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year in which the market value of
Wellgistics Health common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the end of that year’s second fiscal
quarter, (ii) the last day of the fiscal year in which Wellgistics Health has total annual gross revenue of $1.235 billion or more during
such fiscal year (as indexed for inflation), (ii) the date on which Wellgistics Health has issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible
debt in the prior three-year period or (iv) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first
sale of common stock in the initial public offering. Wellgistics Health cannot predict whether investors will find Wellgistics Health’s
securities less attractive because it will rely on these exemptions. If some investors find Wellgistics Health’s securities less
attractive as a result of its reliance on these exemptions, the trading prices of Wellgistics Health’s securities may be lower
than they otherwise would be, there may be a less active trading market for its securities and the trading prices of its securities may
be more volatile.
Further,
Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting
standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do
not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting
standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements
that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such an election to opt out is irrevocable. Wellgistics Health has elected not to
opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates
for public or private companies, Wellgistics Health, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time
private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of Wellgistics Health’s financial statements with
another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended
transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Additionally,
Wellgistics Health qualifies as a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. Smaller reporting
companies may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations, including, among other things, providing only two years of audited
financial statements. Wellgistics Health will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (i) the
market value of Wellgistics Health common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $250 million as of the end of that year’s second
fiscal quarter, or (ii) its annual revenues exceeded $100 million during such completed fiscal year and the market value of Wellgistics
Health common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the end of that year’s second fiscal quarter. To the extent
Wellgistics Health takes advantage of such reduced disclosure obligations, it may also make comparison of its financial statements with
other public companies difficult or impossible.

Certain
existing stockholders acquired our securities at a price below the current trading price of such securities and may experience a positive
rate of return based on the current trading price.
Given
the relatively lower purchase prices that some of our stockholders—including certain of our officers and directors—paid to
acquire some of their securities compared to the current trading price of our shares of common stock, these stockholders in some instances
may earn a positive rate of return on their investment, which may be a significant positive rate of return, depending on the market price
of our shares of common stock at the time that such stockholders choose to sell their shares of common stock. Sales of significant amounts
of shares held by our officers and directors, or the prospect of these sales, in the future, could adversely affect the market price
of our common stock. Public stockholders may not be able to experience the same positive rates of return, especially in the case that
our management’s stock ownership discourages a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain
control of us.

CYBERSECURITY
We
have not adopted any formal cybersecurity risk management program or formal processes for assessing, identifying, and managing material
risks from cybersecurity threats. Our board of directors has oversight responsibility for our overall risk management, including cybersecurity
risk, and has no t delegated oversight authority for cybersecurity risks to any committee. We recently obtained SOC-II Type 1 compliance

PROPERTIES
We
do not own any real property. We entered into a lease for our current corporate office space at 3000 Bayport Drive, Suite 950, Tampa,
Florida 33607 in May 2024. The lease included a 3-year term, beginning May 2024, and ending June 2027. The office space occupies approximately
6,200 square feet. The Company holds a 60% share in this lease, with Wellgistics, LLC holding the remaining 40%. The lease includes a
monthly base rent of $18,792. The lease required a security deposit by the Company of $35,855 and Wellgistics, LLC of $31,871.
We
believe our current and future facilities are adequate for our current and near-term needs. Additional space may be required as we expand
our activities. We do not currently foresee any significant difficulties in obtaining any required additional facilities.

LEGAL
PROCEEDINGS
We are not currently involved
in any legal proceedings, except as described below. From time to time, we may become a party to various legal actions and complaints
arising in the ordinary course of business. In addition to commitments and obligations in the ordinary course of business, we may be subject
to various claims, pending and potential legal actions for damages, investigations relating to governmental laws and regulations and other
matters arising out of the normal conduct of our business. It is possible that our cash flows or results of operations could be materially
affected in any particular period by the unfavorable resolution of one or more of these contingencies.
Dispute with Former Management
On
October 10, 2025, the Company initiated litigation in the Circuit Court of the Thirteenth Judicial Circuit in and Hillsborough County,
Florida against certain former officers and/or directors of the Company (collectively, the “Former Management Parties”).
The complaint asserts claims including, among others, breach of the fiduciary duty of loyalty, breach of contract, tortious interference
with a contract, tortious interference with business relationships, and other applicable claims, arising out of the Former Management
Parties’ efforts to threaten harm the Company as leverage to force the retraction of a vote of the majority shareholders.
On
December 10, 2025, Defendants filed a motion to compel arbitration of all claims in the suit. The Company does not agree that all the
claims in the suit are subject to mandatory arbitration, and filed an opposition to that motion on December 22, 2025. A hearing is currently
scheduled on the motion to compel arbitration for April 27, 2026.
While
the Company believes it has meritorious claims, litigation is inherently uncertain, and there can be no assurance regarding the outcome
or timing of resolution.
In
January 2026, the Company has also served a notice of claims against the Former Management Parties for misrepresentations and omissions
of material fact in connection with an acquisition of certain limited liability company membership interests, which that resulted in,
among other things, supposed promises of equity and related arrangements to such individuals. The Company intends to seek, among other
relief, rescission and cancellation of any purported commitments related to or resulting from the misrepresentations and omissions, as
well as related equitable and monetary remedies.
As
of December 31, 2025, obligations associated with these arrangements are reflected as liabilities on the Company’s consolidated
balance sheet in the aggregate amount of approximately $17,500,000.
Because
the potential resolution of this matter may result in a gain contingency, no amounts have been recognized in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements for any potential recovery or reduction of the recorded liability. If the Company prevails in the litigation, all
or a portion of the recorded liability may be reversed in a future period. The Company will continue to evaluate this matter and will
adjust the related liability, if appropriate, based on developments in the litigation.
See Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements

MANAGEMENT’S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You
should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our audited consolidated
financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report of Form 10-K. This discussion and analysis contains
forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
We have no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated
in these forward-looking statements due to many factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth under the heading “Risk
Factors” in this Form 10-K. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, capital
expenditures, economic and competitive conditions, regulatory changes and other uncertainties, as well as those factors discussed below
and elsewhere in this Form 10-K. Unless the context otherwise requires, references in this section to “the company”, “we,”
“us,” “our,” “Wellgistics Health” refer to Wellgistics Health, Inc. after giving effect to the Wood
Sage and Wellgistics, LLC Acquisition.
Overview
Incorporated
in 2022, Wellgistics Health is a holding company for operating companies centered around pharmaceuticals and healthcare services. Currently,
we own two indirect operating companies, DelivMeds and Wellgistics Pharmacy, through an intermediary—Wood Sage—and one direct
operating company, Wellgistics LLC.
Wellgistics
LLC
Wellgistics
LLC was founded in 2013. In 2017, Strategix Global, LLC acquired a majority interest in Wellgistics LLC. Wellgistics LLC is a 50-state
FDA licensed and NABP-accredited pharmaceutical wholesaler distributor, bridging the gap between small- to mid-size pharmaceutical manufacturers
and independent retail pharmacies. Serving over 5,000 registered pharmacies nationwide, we provide significant value by offering competitive
pricing, unique products, and exceptional service, while also promoting manufacturers’ products to a diverse range of pharmacies.
Our primary focus is on supporting independent retail pharmacies in search of better products, prices, and services, thereby ensuring
their growth and sustainability in the competitive pharmaceutical sector. As Wellgistics Health acquired Wellgistics LLC upon the closing
of the Wellgistics Acquisition, Wellgistics LLC now serves as the wholesale arm of Wellgistics Health’s healthcare ecosystem.
Wellgistics
LLC provides distribution and 3PL services to both pharmaceutical manufacturers and independent retail pharmacies. With over 60 manufacturing
relationships, we identify niche therapeutic products and work with our manufacturing clients to increase market access and visibility
of our client relationships with product awareness and support campaigns. Specifically, we help promote product distribution through
our network of pharmacy buyers by providing sales and marketing support. These services include providing product education, identifying
opportunities for therapeutic substitution when clinically relevant, and cost savings opportunities for pharmacies and their patients.
Wellgistics LLC’s portfolio of products is comprised of 65% topical generics with a primary focus on the dermatology market, 20%
oral generic formulations primarily in the non-narcotic pain category, 10% oral and topical brand formulations, and 5% in the over-the-counter
market space. Our investments in cold chain infrastructure will position this division to compete in the specialty-lite therapy category
while also expanding our ability to house additional branded products. The services provided to our manufacturing clients, pharmacy buyers,
and other constituents described below are paramount to the revenue generated from this division.
Wellgistics
Tech & Hub, LLC dba DelivMeds (f/k/a Alliance Pharma Solutions, LLC)
DelivMeds
was founded in 2017 as a holding company for technology solutions wholly owned by Integral. In 2020, DelivMeds recommissioned its technology
project so that it would serve as a pharmaceutical hub, facilitating prescription transfer and clinical concierge services to a network
of independent pharmacies. After conducting an extensive market research survey focusing on competition, DelivMeds established several
key differentiators for the its hub. These differentiators included various integrations of the hub with pharmacy management software
systems and pharmacy point of sale systems, among others such that DelivMeds would serve as an end-to-end patient-centric solution automating
the prescription journey. Powered by Wellgistics Pharmacy as the backend pharmacy, DelivMeds is the frontend technology serving as the
middleware between all key stakeholders referenced in what we refer to as the 5P-Model: Patients, Providers, Pharmacies, Payors or PBMs,
and Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Companies.
53
DelivMeds
aims to preserve patient autonomy, improve price transparency, and aide in making a meaningful impact on patient outcomes by eliminating
barriers to therapy while simultaneously boosting adherence. We work with channel partners such as pharmaceutical manufacturers, provider
groups and accountable care organizations, telehealth companies, and employer groups to offer full suite of patient-centered pharmacy
services. DelivMeds’ business-to-business strategy approach enables prescriptions to be sent directly to Wellgistics Pharmacy and
subsequently transferred to an eligible in-network independent pharmacy. Each channel partner is equipped with de-identified data to
improve its respective business operation and or improve its renumeration from the value-based services the clinical concierge arm provides.
As previously mentioned, Wood Sage acquired DelivMeds in August 2023. As discussed below and elsewhere in this Annual Report, Wellgistics
Health acquired Wood Sage in June 2024. DelivMeds now serves as the middleware technology arm to Wellgistics Health’s integrated
healthcare ecosystem.
Wellgistics
Pharmacy, LLC (f/k/a Community Specialty Pharmacy, LLC)
Wellgistics
Pharmacy was founded in 2011 as a retail community specialty pharmacy. Specializing in HIV/AIDS, the pharmacy obtained URAC and ACHC
accreditations for Specialty Pharmacy and also performed general pharmacy services in its community. In 2018, Integral acquired Wellgistics
Pharmacy and relocated Wellgistics Pharmacy to Tampa, Florida. Subsequently, Wellgistics Pharmacy expanded its business operations to
perform 340B services by partnering with local clinics and provider groups. During this time period, the pharmacy initiated its pursuit
of additional pharmacy state licenses to convert Wellgistics Pharmacy’s business to a mail order pharmacy. Currently, Wellgistics
Pharmacy is licensed in 32 states and the District of Columbia, with superb license coverage along the east coast. As a result of this
strategic business shift Wellgistics Pharmacy’s leadership team chose to voluntarily forfeit Wellgistics Pharmacy’s specialty
accreditations. However, Wellgistics Pharmacy maintains specialty internal standard operating procedures and performs all of the functions
of a specialty pharmacy.
Wellgistics
Pharmacy provides general and specialty pharmacy services dedicated to servicing the needs of patients, as well as clinical expertise,
technology-driven innovation tools, and administrative efficiencies that support physicians, payers, and pharmaceutical manufacturers.
Wellgistics Pharmacy purchases pharmaceuticals including specialty medications from manufacturers and wholesale distributors, fills prescriptions,
labels, packages and delivers these pharmaceuticals to patients’ homes or physicians’ offices through contract couriers or
carriers. Wellgistics Pharmacy maintains a call center and customer support within its pharmacy located in Tampa, Florida. Wellgistics
Pharmacy has several 340B relationships, acting as the dispensing pharmacy for these healthcare facilities. These relationships help
drive revenue and prescription volume. Our relationship with Wellgistics LLC along with our deep-rooted ties to other wholesalers enables
Wellgistics Pharmacy to offer a competitive cash-based formulary for the uninsured and underinsured patient populations. Wellgistics
Pharmacy continues to see an uptick in utilization, as more patients elect to pay out of pocket due to our low-cost model, which Wellgistics
Pharmacy believes is an opportunity to gain market share with small- to medium-size employer groups in a partnership model with other
consumer driven healthcare companies. The services that Wellgistics Pharmacy provides to its patients and other constituents are vital
to the revenue and prescription volume generated from this division. Wellgistics Pharmacy now serves as the backbone of Wellgistics Health’s
healthcare ecosystem.
Wellgistics
Health, Inc.
As
a micro health ecosystem, our portfolio of companies consists of a pharmacy, wholesale operations, and a technology division with a novel
platform for hub and clinical services. We are focused on improving the lives of patients while delivering unique solutions for pharmacies,
providers, pharmaceutical manufacturers, and payors. Our patient-centric approach combined with innovative healthcare applications positions
us to shift the dynamic of care to revolve around the patient for a wide range of therapeutic conditions. We offer a full spectrum of
integrated solutions by leveraging the synergies of our business segments to address access, care coordination, dispensing, delivery,
and clinical management of pharmaceutical products ranging from “specialty-lite” to general maintenance conditions.
54
Prior
to closing the Wood Sage Acquisition, Wellgistics Health did not generate revenues. Upon closing of the Wood Sage Acquisition and the
Wellgistics Acquisition, our revenues are derived from (i) pharmaceutical dispensing of products, (ii) care management services we deliver
to patients and offer to pharmaceutical manufacturing clients, and (iii) SaaS fees for use of our platform technology services, and (iv)
product procurement and distribution to independent pharmacies. We closed the Wood Sage Acquisition in June 2024 and closed the Wellgistics
Acquisition in August 2024. However, while Wellgistics Health, Wood Sage, and Wellgistics LLC previously were separate entities, each
of the three companies have shared common office space, comarketed solutions to the marketplace, and leveraged financial and back-office
support prior to June 2024
Our
ability to source and distribute pharmaceutical products to our pharmacy and network of independent pharmacy partners throughout the
U.S. will adequately position us to negotiate greater discounts based on market share. Our digital pharmacy, including its hub and clinical
services technology platform, will be poised to add significant value in this key specialty-lite market by providing patients access
and convenience, while providing partners with ready-to-go market solutions with big data.
Data
released from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services illustrates that the National Health Expenditure Data for 2022 grew to
$4.5 trillion and accounted for 17.3% of gross domestic product (“GDP”), with an expected increase in the health spending
share of GDP to 19.7% by 2032. A deeper dive of this report reveals that total retail prescription drug spending from 2021 to 2022 increased
by 8.4% to $405.9 billion. IQVIA’S 2024 report on medicine spending trends found that overall spending in the U.S. market for medicines
reached $435 billion in 2023. It is well documented in the literature that the specialty drug market accounts for less than 10% of total
drugs in the market but is responsible for greater than 50% of the prescription drug spend per annum. After evaluating reasons for increased
healthcare expenditure, poor medication adherence continues to be a challenge that causes unnecessary strain on the healthcare system,
including, but not limited to, increased hospital admissions and readmissions rates from medication non-compliance and adverse events.
Many of these factors are preventable by empowering patient autonomy in their healthcare journey, identifying cost savings opportunities,
and providing access to clinical resources and support.
Our
business model primely positions us to address the prescription spend in the “specialty lite” therapy area while improving
patient health outcomes by equipping patients with our innovative digital health tools. Our pharmacy business will expand its service
coverage area while strengthening its clinical expertise in several key therapeutic categories, including services such as care coordination
and patient financial assistance. Furthermore, our partner relationships will enable us to offer a competitive cash formulary as an alternative
option when high insurance deductibles make it economically feasible. Our wholesale operations will expand as we continue to partner
and establish new manufacturer relationships. With many of these new relationships, we will provide sales and clinical education support
to the pharmacies purchasing these products. We have also strategically identified opportunities to wholesale products that are normally
not carried by the three largest wholesalers in the United States. We will carve out exclusivity or semi- exclusive relationships based
on a time period to ensure we are maximizing our revenues. New partnerships with group purchasing organizations are expected to be effective,
as we increase the business divisions’ visibility with all or many of the member pharmacies. Our technology division, which comprises
a novel platform performing pharmacy hub and clinical services, will be connected to our pharmacy network enabling us to operate as a
digital pharmacy and hub. Wellgistics Health’s pharmacy network leverages the bricks and mortar of independent, locally-owned pharmacies,
that are rooted in their communities, to create a powerful network capable of delivering Rx’s in hours. This channel represents
over 19,000 pharmacies across the United States, servicing 1.3 billion prescriptions annually representing a $47 billion market at wholesale
cost.
Our
mobile application for patients will provide an end-to-end solution for digitizing the prescription journey. The solution helps to preserve
patient autonomy, improve prescription price transparency, and provide additional concierge services in an effort to boost medication
adherence and improve patient outcomes. We will aggregate the data collected from our solution to provide comprehensive reports that
are tied to medication adherence and outcomes to make a meaningful impact for all stakeholders involved. We will monetize this valuable
data with manufacturers, payors and providers.
55
Key
Components of Results of Operations
We
are an early-stage company, and our historical results may not be indicative of our future results for reasons that may be difficult
to anticipate. Accordingly, the drivers of our future financial results, as well as the components of such results, may not be comparable
to our historical or future results of operations.
Revenues
Wellgistics
Health is a holding company specifically formed to hold operating companies. We did not generate any revenue prior to the Wood Sage Acquisition,
but now expect to generate all of our revenues through DelivMeds, Wellgistics Pharmacy, and Wellgistics LLC. Although Wellgistics Health
may add other sources of revenue through the acquisition of other operating companies in the future, Wellgistics Health currently does
not have any such plans.
Wellgistics
Health will be subject to risk of specific inflationary pressures on product prices and its impact on consumer spending. For example,
increases in prescription drug costs could impact consumers ability to afford initial or on-going therapy. Wellgistics Health’s
focus on the relatively expensive specialty lite business segment (i.e., $500 - $3,000 therapies) could be particularly impacted by increasing
costs. Additionally, consumer discretionary funds could be reduced, impacting the ability to pay for digital services and subscription
models that Wellgistics Health offers. If inflation continues to increase, sourcing and procuring specialty lite products may prove to
be capital intensive. Wellgistics Health may not be able to adjust prices sufficiently to offset the effect without negatively impacting
consumer demand or Wellgistics Health’s gross margin. All of these inflationary risk factors could materially and adversely impact
Wellgistics Health’s business operations, financial condition and results of operations.
Wellgistics
Pharmacy recognizes product revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, when we transfer promised
goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for
those goods or services. Wellgistics Pharmacy fills prescriptions for prescription and over-the-counter drugs written by a provider and
recognizes revenue at the time the patient confirms the prescription order for payment of co-pays.
Expenses
Sales
and Marketing Expense
Sales
and marketing expenses consist of personnel and personnel-related expenses, including stock-based compensation for our business development
team as well as trade events participation, public relations, white paper development, social media, pharmacy trade and patient materials,
advertising, sales collateral, syndicated data fees, and other marketing expenses. We expect to increase our sales and marketing activities
to grow our customer base and increase market share. We also expect that our sales and marketing expenses will increase over time as
we continue to hire additional personnel to scale the business.
General
and Administrative Expense
General
and administrative expenses currently consist of business development, consulting, and information technology development and support
and third-party software expenses.
General
and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related costs (including salaries, bonuses, benefits, and stock-based compensation
expense) for personnel in executive, finance, accounting, corporate development and other administrative functions. General and administrative
expenses also include legal fees, professional fees paid for accounting, auditing, consulting, tax, and investor relations services,
insurance costs, facility costs not otherwise included in research and development expenses. Following Wellgistics Health’s registration
as a public company, also include public company expenses such as costs associated with compliance with the rules and regulations of
the SEC and the stock exchange.
56
Income
Tax (Benefit) Expense
Our
income tax provision will consist of an estimate for U.S. federal and state income taxes based on enacted rates, as adjusted for allowable
credits, deductions, uncertain tax positions, changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities, and changes in the tax law. We will maintain
a valuation allowance against the full value of our U.S. and state net deferred tax assets because we believe the recoverability of the
tax assets is more likely than not.
Nasdaq
Minimum Bid Price Deficiency
On
December 10, 2025, the Company received a deficiency letter from the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Staff notifying the Company that the
closing bid price of its common stock had fallen below the minimum $1.00 per share required for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital
Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) for the 30 consecutive business day period between October 27, 2025 and December 9,
2025. The Company was granted an initial compliance period of 180 calendar days, or until June 8, 2026, to regain compliance.
To
regain compliance, the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock must meet or exceed $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten
consecutive business days prior to June 8, 2026. If the Company does not regain compliance within the initial compliance period, it may
be eligible for an additional 180-day compliance period, provided it meets all applicable continued listing requirements and notifies
Nasdaq of its intention to cure the deficiency, including through a reverse stock split if necessary.
If
the Company is unable to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule during any applicable compliance period, its common stock will be
subject to delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market. A delisting of the Company’s common stock could significantly reduce the liquidity
of the Company’s shares, limit its ability to raise capital through equity offerings, and have a material adverse effect on the
Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations. The Company is currently evaluating its options to regain compliance;
however, there can be no assurance that the Company will regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule or maintain compliance with any other
Nasdaq continued listing requirements.

Revenues
and Cost of Revenues
Net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2025, were $23,337,860 compared to
$18,128,831 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in revenues was primarily driven by the inclusion of Wellgistics Pharmacy
and Wellgistics Tech & Hub operations following the Company’s acquisitions of Wood Sage LLC on June 16, 2024 and Wellgistics
LLC on August 30, 2024. The year ended December 31, 2025 reflects a full twelve months of post-acquisition activity, whereas the prior-year
period included only limited revenues generated following the August 30, 2024 closing of the Wellgistics acquisition..
Cost of revenues for the year ended
December 31, 2025, totaled $29,764,279, compared to $16,361,517 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily
attributable to the full-year inclusion of cost of sales from the acquired subsidiaries, compounded by liquidity constraints that
restricted the Company’s ability to procure inventory efficiently. Additionally, the Company’s constrained liquidity
position limited its ability to procure inventory at favorable terms, resulting in higher per-unit costs and contributing to cost of
revenues exceeding net revenues for the period. Furthermore, the Company wrote off approximately $6.0 million in aged
inventory.
Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2025, was a gross loss of $(6,426,419),
compared to gross profit of $1,767,314 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The shift to a gross loss was primarily the result of cost
of revenues exceeding net revenues during the period. This was driven by liquidity constraints that restricted the Company’s ability
to procure inventory efficiently, caused delays in product shipments, and prevented the Company from achieving the purchasing scale necessary
to improve margins. Furthermore, the Company created a reserve for approximately $6.0 million in aged inventory. As a result, gross margin declined
to (27.5)% for the year ended December 31, 2025, from 9.7% in the prior-year period.
These
liquidity constraints and the resulting sales impact were most pronounced in the second half of 2025, when temporary cash flow shortages
reduced the Company’s purchasing capacity and led to delayed product shipments. Management expects gross margin to improve as liquidity
stabilizes and inventory purchasing normalizes in the upcoming years.
The

General
and Administrative Expense
General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025, were
$70,332,827, compared to $6,797,782 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The significant increase was primarily driven by $54,048,525
of non-cash stock-based compensation recognized during the period. The remainder of the increase reflects the full-year consolidation
of Wellgistics LLC and its subsidiaries following the August 2024 acquisition, including personnel costs and professional fees such as
audit, tax, and legal services.
Of the $54,794,525 in non-cash stock-based compensation, $24,300,000 related to
the accelerated vesting of 9,000,000 restricted shares granted to the Chief Executive Officer pursuant to the Company’s Amended
and Restated 2023 Equity Incentive Plan. The remaining $29,748,525 related to the issuance of common stock and restricted stock units
to directors, employees, and consultants in exchange for services rendered during the year.
Additionally,
general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2025 included a loss of $140,647 recognized in connection with the
Company’s satisfaction of its guaranty obligation under a revolving credit note issued by Tollo Health, LLC. This item is non-recurring
in nature and is reflected within general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Sales
and Marketing Expense
Sales
and marketing expenses were $1,224,521 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $0 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The
increase reflects the Company’s expanded promotional activities and marketing initiatives following the acquisitions of Wood Sage
and Wellgistics. For the year ended December 31, 2025, Sales and marketing expenses also included $746,000 of non-cash stock-based compensation
related to the issuance of common stock to sales and marketing advisors in exchange for services rendered.
Depreciation
and amortization
Depreciation
and amortization for the year ended December 31, 2025, totaled $3,211,064, compared to $1,114,664 for the year ended December 31, 2024.
The increase reflects the full twelve months of activity in the 2025 period, compared to only a partial post-acquisition period in 2024
following the closings of the Wood Sage LLC and Wellgistics LLC acquisitions. Of the total depreciation and amortization expense, $3,052,260
for the year ended December 31, 2025, and $1,047,048 for the year ended December 31, 2024, related to the amortization of intangible
assets identified and recorded in connection with those acquisitions. The remaining $158,804 and $67,616 for the years ended December
31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, represented depreciation of fixed assets acquired as part of the Wellgistics LLC acquisition.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets Impairment
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized a non-cash impairment
charge of $12,554,266 related to goodwill and intangible assets arising from the acquisitions of Wood Sage LLC and Wellgistics LLC in
2024. As part of its annual impairment review, the Company tested the carrying value of goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, including
customer relationships and trademarks, against their estimated fair values.
Of
the total impairment charge, $2,026,006 related to the write-down of goodwill, attributable to the Wellgistics distribution
acquisition. The remaining $10,528,260 related to the impairment of identifiable intangible assets, consisting of $5,314,027
attributable to customer relationships, $4,565,048 attributable to trademarks, both arising from the Wellgistics distribution
acquisition, and $649,185 attributable to capitalized software associated with the Wellgistics Tech & Hub operations.
The
impairment charge reflects a decline in the estimated fair value of these assets, driven primarily by lower-than-expected future cash
flows from the acquired businesses. As a result of this testing, the carrying values of the affected goodwill and intangible assets were
written down to their respective fair values, reflecting current economic conditions and the financial performance of the acquired operations
since the date of acquisition.
As
this is a non-cash charge, the impairment did not impact the Company’s liquidity or cash position; however, it had a material effect
on the Company’s reported financial results for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Other
Expense, net
Other
expenses, net for the year ended December 31, 2025, totaled $7,525,433, compared to $711,094 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The
significant increase was primarily attributable to higher interest expense incurred in connection with the Company’s expanded debt
obligations and a loss on debt extinguishment arising from the amendment of the Wellgistics acquisition note and the refinancing of certain
other debt facilities during the year.
Interest
expense for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $4,579,556, compared to $831,467 for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase
reflects the Company’s higher outstanding debt balances during the period, including promissory notes, a revolving line of credit,
Agile Capital debt, and merchant cash advance agreements entered into or assumed in connection with the Company’s acquisition and
financing activities.
59
The Company also recognized a total loss on debt extinguishment of $2,987,922 for
the year ended December 31, 2025, consisting of two components. Of this amount, $1,353,663 arose from the Eighth Amendment to the Membership
Interest Purchase Agreement (“MIPA”) with Wellgistics LLC, executed on July 24, 2025. Under the amendment, the principal balance
of the related promissory note was increased from $15,000,000 to $17,500,000. The original note, including $1,146,337 of accrued interest
through July 24, 2025, was derecognized and replaced with a new promissory note recorded at the present value of its future cash flows.
The difference between the carrying amount of the extinguished debt and the fair value of the new note was recognized as a loss on debt
extinguishment in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. $653,582 related to losses recognized in connection with two debts conversion
agreements entered into on October 30, 2025, pursuant to which outstanding indebtedness of Woodsage LLC was converted to shares of Company’s
common stock at $0.70 per share, with losses arising as the fair value of shares issued exceeded the carrying amount of debt extinguished.
The remaining $980,677 of the total loss on debt extinguishment related to the refinancing of Agile Capital debt and merchant cash advance
agreements that occurred periodically throughout the year.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Liquidity
Our
future cash needs are expected to include cash for operating activities, working capital, purchases of property and equipment, strategic
investments, development, and expansion of facilities. We will fund our operations primarily through the issuance of debt and the sale
of equity securities. We expect to generate positive cash flow from the operations in 2025 due to the annual revenue generated from Wood
Sage and Wellgistics LLC. In order to proceed with our business plan, we may need to raise additional funds through the issuance of debt,
equity or other commercial arrangements that may not be available to us when needed or on terms that we deem favorable. To the extent
we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible securities, our stockholders’ ownership interests will be
diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our common
stockholders. Debt financing and preferred equity financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or
restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making acquisitions or capital expenditures or declaring
dividends. If we are unable to obtain sufficient financial resources, our business, financial condition and results of operations may
be materially and adversely affected. We may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate parts of its strategic business plan or
future commercialization efforts. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain financing on acceptable terms.
Our
short-term liquidity requirements include initiatives related to the (i) expansion of existing facilities and upgrade of equipment in
order to increase operational capacity, (ii) recruitment of additional employees to increase operational and business needs, upgrade
of information technology, and (iii) continued buildout of corporate functions and public company compliance requirements, inclusive
of accounting and legal fees. Our long-term liquidity requirements include initiatives related to (a) strategic acquisitions mean to
further the development of our health ecosystem such as electronic health record systems, (b) expansion of micro-distribution centers
for wholesale and other wholly owned pharmacies in strategic demographic regions, (c) investments into artificial intelligence, machine
learning, and data warehousing capabilities, and (d) additional integrations with third-party partners such as PMS systems, ride-sharing
logistics providers, enterprise health systems, and others to bolster the value proposition of our health ecosystem with a focus on improving
operational efficiency while simultaneously removing interdependencies.

interest at a rate of 2% per annum and was scheduled to mature on April 1, 2025.
The
Company assumed this debt as part of the acquisition of Wellgistics. As of December 31, 2025, the promissory note had been fully repaid,
and the outstanding balance was $0, compared to $137,141 as of December 31, 2024. Interest expense related to the promissory note was
immaterial for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Dividends
We
intend to retain future earnings, if any, for future operations, expansion and debt repayment (if any) and we have no current plans to
pay any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. In addition, our ability to pay dividends is likely to be limited by covenants of
any future indebtedness. There are no, and we do not intend in the future for there to be any, restrictions in the covenants of any existing
and outstanding indebtedness on our wholly-owned subsidiaries from distributing earnings in the form of dividends, loans or advances
and through repayment of loans or advances to us.

Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
During
the years presented, we did not have, nor do we currently have, any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined under SEC rules.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP. Preparation of
the financial statements requires our management to make a number of judgments, estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amount
of expenses, assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We consider an accounting judgment, estimate
or assumption to be critical when (i) the estimate or assumption is complex in nature or requires a high degree of judgment and (ii)
the use of different judgments, estimates and assumptions could have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Our
significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to our financial statements included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.
Our
critical accounting policies include:
Revenue
Recognition
The
Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 upon inception.
To
determine revenue recognition for arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the
following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract; (iii)
determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and (v) recognize
revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it
is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the
customer. At contract inception, once the contract was determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assessed the goods or
services promised within each contract and determined those that were performance obligations, and assessed whether each promised good
or service was distinct. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective
performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.
A
performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account in
ASC 606. The Company recognizes revenue at the point of sale. The majority of orders are placed via the Company’s website. Customers
generally pay by credit card at the time they place their order. The Company does have larger customers to whom they have extended terms
for payment. Generally, payments from these customers are due within 30 days of their order being shipped. However, a few customers have
been given terms extending out to 45 days.
65
Wellgistics
LLC.
The
Company recognizes revenue when goods are delivered to the customer. The gross product revenues are subject to a variety of deductions,
which generally are estimated and recorded in the same period that the revenues are recognized. Such variable consideration represents
chargebacks, rebates, sales allowances and sales returns. These deductions represent estimates of the related obligations and, as such,
knowledge and judgment are considered when estimating the impact of these revenue deductions on gross sales for a reporting period. All
revenue for the Company is recognized at the point-in-time when delivered to customer based on contractual obligations. Any amount collected
from customers for goods not yet delivered is recorded as unearned revenue. The company recognizes a refund liability if it receives
consideration from a customer and expects to refund some or all of that consideration to the customer. A refund liability is measured
at the amount of consideration received (or receivable) for which the company does not expect to be entitled (that is, amounts not included
in the transaction price). The refund liability (and corresponding change in the transaction price and, therefore, the contract liability)
is updated at the end of each reporting period for changes in circumstances.
Wellgistics
Pharmacy
The
Company is in the retail pharmacy business. and fills prescriptions for drugs written by a doctor and recognizes revenue at the time
the patient confirms delivery of the prescription. Customer returns are not material. The following are the steps taken to recognize
revenue.
Step
One: Identify the contract with the customer — The prescription is written by a doctor for a customer and delivered to the Company.
The prescription identifies the performance obligations in the contract. The Company fills the prescription and delivers to the Customer
the prescription, fulfilling the contract. The collection is probable because there is confirmation that the customer has insurance for
the reimbursement to the Company prior to filling of the prescription.
Step
Two: Identify the performance obligations in the contract — Each prescription is distinct to the Customer.
Step
Three: Determine the transaction price — The consideration is not variable. The transaction price is determined to be the price
of the prescription at the time of delivery which considers the expected reimbursements from third party payors (e.g., pharmacy benefit
managers, insurance companies and government agencies).
Step
Four: Allocate the transaction price — The price of the prescription invoiced represents the expected amount of reimbursement from
third party payors. There is no difference between contract price and “stand-alone selling price”.
Step
Five: Recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation — Revenue is recognized upon the delivery of the
prescription.
Business
Combinations
The
Company accounts for acquisitions in which it obtains control of one or more businesses as a business combination. The purchase price
of the acquired businesses is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated
fair values at the acquisition date. The excess of the purchase price over those fair values is recognized as goodwill. During the measurement
period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments, in the period in which they are determined,
to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. If the assets acquired are not a business,
the Company accounts for the transaction or other event as an asset acquisition. Under both methods, the Company recognizes the identifiable
assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquired entity. In addition, for transactions that
are business combinations, the Company evaluates the existence of goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase.

Report

To
the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Wellgistics Health, Inc.
Opinion
on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Wellgistics Health, Inc. and the subsidiaries (the “Company”)
as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, consolidated statements of
stockholders’ equity (deficit) and consolidated statements of cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December
31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated 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,
2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2025,
in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles of United States of America.
Matters
related to Going Concern
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed
in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, if the Company is unable to raise additional funds to alleviate liquidity needs,
it may be required to reduce the scope of its planned development. The company has suffered losses from operations and has an accumulated
deficit that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters
are also described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Emphasis
of Matters
a. We
draw attention to Note 4 - Inventories, net, which describes matters related to certain inventory
acquired from First Defense Nasal Screen Corp (“FDNS”). As discussed in the note,
the inventory has experienced minimal sales activity, and management has determined that
there is no active market and that the inventory is non-moving. Based on this assessment,
the Company concluded that the carrying value of the inventory was not recoverable and recorded
a reserve for obsolete inventory of $5,988,257, which is included in cost of net revenues
in the consolidated statements of operations. Our opinion is not modified with respect to
this matter.
b. We
draw attention to Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements, which describes the grant
of 9,000,000 shares of restricted common stock to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer
on February 28, 2025, under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2023 Equity Incentive
Plan. As discussed in the note, although the award was originally subject to performance-based
vesting conditions over a three-year period, the Compensation Committee approved an acceleration
of vesting on July 24, 2025, which was subsequently ratified by the Board of Directors, resulting
in full vesting during the third quarter of 2025. Accordingly, the Company recognized stock-based
compensation expense of approximately $24.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025,
with no remaining unrecognized compensation cost as of year end. Our opinion is not modified
with respect to this matter.
c. We
draw attention to Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements, which describes litigation
initiated by the Company against certain former officers and directors relating to alleged
breaches of fiduciary duty, contractual matters, and related claims. As disclosed, obligations
associated with certain arrangements subject to dispute are recorded as liabilities of approximately
$17.5 million as of December 31, 2025. The outcome of the litigation, including a pending
motion to compel arbitration and additional claims asserted subsequent to year end, is inherently
uncertain and may result in the reversal of all or a portion of the recorded liabilities
in future periods. Because this matter may give rise to a gain contingency, no amounts have
been recognized for any potential recovery. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this
matter.
Basis
for Opinion
These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on the Company’s consolidated 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 audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
The company is not required to have nor we have engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part
of our audit, 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
audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

WELLGISTICS
HEALTH, INC.
NOTES
TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE
1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The
Company was initially organized in the name of Ayan Sponsors LLC on September 6, 2022, and subsequently incorporated in the name Danam
Health, Inc. (the “Company”/ “us”/ “we”/ “our”) as a Delaware Corporation that was registered
on November 15, 2022, The Company’s headquarters are in Tampa, Florida.
In
January 2023 and May 2023, the Company entered into separate definitive agreements with the owners of Wood Sage LLC (“Wood Sage”)
and Wellgistics LLC, respectively, whereby the Company would acquire all of the respective outstanding membership interests of Wood Sage
and Wellgistics LLC. In June 2024, the Company and Wood Sage entered into an amended and revised definitive agreement and closed on the
Wood Sage Acquisition, thereby making Wood Sage a wholly owned subsidiary. In connection with the Wood Sage Acquisition, the Company
acquired two of its operating subsidiaries, Alliance Pharma Solutions LLC d/b/a DelivMeds (n/k/a Wellgistics Tech & Hub, LLC) (“DelivMeds”)—a
pharmaceutical technology hub—and Community Specialty Pharmacy, LLC (n/k/a Wellgistics Pharmacy, LLC) (“Wellgistics Pharmacy”)—a
retail community specialty pharmacy.
On
August 30, 2024, the Company closed on the Wellgistics Acquisition, thereby making Wellgistics LLC—a company focused on wholesale
operations including the distribution and fulfillment of certain pharmaceutical medications to a network of independent pharmacies meant
to improve market access to and patient outcomes regarding the medications—a wholly owned subsidiary.
As
such, the Company currently exists as a holding company with Wood Sage as a directly held intermediate holding company subsidiary, Wellgistics
Tech & Hub, LLC and Wellgistics Pharmacy, LLC as indirect operating subsidiaries, and Wellgistics, LLC as a direct operating subsidiary
On
October 4, 2024, the Company changed its corporate name to “Wellgistics Health, Inc.” (referred as “Wellgistics Health/WGRX/”
“the Company”/ “we”/ “us”/ “our”) by filing a duly authorized Certificate of Amendment
to its Certificate of Incorporation.
Initial
Public Offering
On
February 20, 2025, the Company entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Craft Capital Management
LLC as representatives of the several underwriters (the “Underwriters”), relating to the Company’s initial public offering
(the “Offering” or “IPO”) of 888,889 shares of common stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share, at a public offering
price of $ 4.50 per share, generating gross proceeds of approximately $ 4 million and net proceeds of approximately $ 3.1 million, after
deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other estimated offering expenses.
The
shares of common stock were offered and sold pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-280945),
originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on July 22, 2024, and later amended
(as amended, the “Registration Statement”). The Registration Statement was declared effective by the Commission on February
14, 2025. The closing of the Offering took place on February 24, 2025. A final prospectus describing the terms of the offering was filed
with the Commission on February 21, 2025.
F- 7
The
Company’s common stock commenced trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market LLC on February 21, 2025, under the symbol “WGRX”.
The IPO generated net proceeds to the Company of approximately $ 3.1 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and
other estimated offering expenses. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to increase its capitalization, provide
financial flexibility, and enhance visibility into the marketplace as well as to create a public market for the common stock and for
general corporate purposes, including establishing working capital, funding marketing initiatives, and facilitating capital expenditures.
Basis
of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The
Company’s fiscal year ends on December 31.
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America (“U.S.GAAP”) in all material respects and have been consistently applied in preparing the accompanying
consolidated financial statements.
The
consolidated financial statements include the consolidated financial statements of Wood Sage since the acquisition on June 16, 2024 and
financial statements of Wellgistics, LLC since the acquisition on August 30, 2024. All inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated
on consolidation.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S.GAAP requires the
Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities; the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses for the periods covered and certain amounts disclosed in the notes to the Financial Statements. These estimates
are based on information available through the date of the issuance of the financial statements and actual results could differ from
those estimates. Areas requiring significant estimates and assumptions by the Company include, but are not limited to:
● provisions
for income taxes and related valuation allowances and tax uncertainties;
● lease tenure
● recoverability
of long-lived assets and their related estimated lives.
● fair
value of long-term debt and notes receivable
● allowance
for expected credit losses on financial assets
● grant-date
fair value and valuation of stock-based compensation awards
● estimated
useful lives of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment
● evaluation
of goodwill for impairment
● accruals
for estimated liabilities
● evaluation
of equity method investments
● net-realizable
value of inventory
Comprehensive
Loss
Comprehensive
loss includes net loss as well as other changes in stockholders’ equity that result from transactions and economic events other
than those with stockholders. There was no difference between net loss and comprehensive loss presented in the consolidated financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Segment
Reporting
In
accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), we identify our
operating segments according to how our business activities are managed and evaluated. ASC 280 establishes standards for companies to
report financial statement information about operating segments, products, services, geographic areas, and major customers. Operating
segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is regularly evaluated
by the Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), or group, in deciding how to allocate resources and assess
performance.
F- 8
The
CODM has been identified as the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews the operating results for the Company as a whole to make decisions
about allocating resources and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company only has one
operating and reportable segment.
The
key measures of segment profit or loss reviewed by our CODM are revenue and operating costs. These metrics are reviewed and monitored
by the CODM to manage and forecast cash. The CODM also reviews operating costs to manage, maintain and enforce all contractual agreements
to ensure costs are aligned with all agreements and budget.
See
Note 12 for further details.
Concentration
of Credit Risks and Major Customers
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and receivables. The
Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions. Deposits are insured to Federal Deposit Insurance Corp limits.
Customer
Concentration Risk
For
the year ended December 31, 2025, one customer accounted for approximately 13 % of the Company’s total revenues. As of December
31, 2025, two customers accounted for approximately 25 % and 18 %, respectively, of gross accounts receivable.
For
the year ended December 31, 2024, two customers accounted for approximately 19 % and 12 %, respectively, of the Company’s total revenues.
As of December 31, 2024, one customer accounted for approximately 23 % of gross accounts receivable.
The
Company’s revenues and accounts receivable are subject to concentration risk due to its reliance on a limited number of significant
customers. The loss of any one of these customers, or a material reduction in purchase volumes from such customers, could have a material
adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations. Management continues to actively pursue
opportunities to broaden and diversify the Company’s customer base in order to reduce its exposure to this concentration risk.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
Fair
value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. A hierarchy has been established for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes
the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available.
Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data
obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions of what
market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. The financial
and nonfinancial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The hierarchy is presented down into three levels based on the reliability of the inputs.
Level
1 Quoted
prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 Observable
inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted
prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs
that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the
full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 Unobservable
pricing inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources, such as discounted
cash flow models or valuations.
F- 9
The
carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, note receivable, deposits, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and short-term debt approximate
their fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying amount of long-term debt approximates fair value
because the debt is based on current rates at which the Company could borrow funds with similar maturities.
Accounts
Receivable and Allowances for Credit Losses
Accounts
receivable are recorded at the net invoiced amount, net of allowance for credit losses, and do not bear interest. Expected credit losses
include losses expected based on known credit issues with specific customers as well as a general expected credit loss allowance based
on relevant information, including historical loss rates, current conditions, and reasonable economic forecasts that affect collectability.
The Company reserves for any accounts receivable balances that are determined to be uncollectible in the allowance for credit losses.
Account balances are charged off against the allowance when the Company believes that it is probable that the receivable will not be
recovered. Actual write-offs may be in excess of the Company’s estimated allowance.
The
Company uses a loss rate method to estimate its allowance for credit losses. The determination of the current expected credit loss rate
begins with our review of historical loss experience as a percentage of accounts receivable. To determine the current allowance for credit
losses, we combine the historical and expected credit loss rates and apply them to our period end accounts receivable.
The
Company provides for a 95 % - 100 % loss rate of the accounts receivable which are due over the period of 90 days. For the year ended December
31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized provision for credit losses of $ 723,401 and $ 93,378 , respectively, within general and administrative
expenses.
Inventories,
Net
Inventories
are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined on a first in first out (“FIFO”) basis.
Cost of inventory is determined as the sum of the applicable expenditures and charges directly or indirectly incurred in bringing an
article to its existing condition and location. On a quarterly basis, we evaluate inventory for net realizable value using estimates
based on historical experience, current or projected pricing trends, specific categories of inventory, age and expiration dates of
on-hand inventory and manufacturer return policies. If actual conditions are less favorable than our assumptions, additional
inventory write-downs may be required, and no reserve is maintained as obsolete or expired inventories are written off and are presented in cost of net revenues in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive
loss. We believe
that the inventory valuation provides a reasonable approximation of the current value of inventory.
Capitalized
Software
The
Company complies with the guidance of ASC 350-40, “ Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal Use Software ”,
in accounting for our internally developed system projects that it utilizes to provide our services to customers. These system projects
generally relate to software of the Company that is not intended for sale or otherwise marketed. Internal and external costs incurred
during the preliminary project stage are expensed as they are incurred. Once a project has reached the development stage, the Company
capitalizes direct internal and external costs until the software is substantially complete and ready for our intended use. Costs for
upgrades and enhancements are capitalized, whereas costs incurred for maintenance are expensed as incurred. These capitalized software
costs are amortized on a project-by-project basis over the expected economic life of the underlying software on a straight-line basis,
which is generally three to five years. Amortization commences when the software is available for our intended use.
As
of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company capitalized $ 2,499,553 and $ 1,618,017 , respectively, in software development
cost related to the Delivmeds platform via its DelivMeds subsidiary. These amounts represent the fair value measurement of the capitalized
software.
For
the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $ 649,185 on its capitalized software, reflecting a decrease
in the carrying value of the DelivMeds platform software to $ 1,850,358 as of December 31, 2025. The impairment charge was recorded within
goodwill and intangible assets impairment in the consolidated statements of operations.
To
date, the Delivmeds platform is not yet been placed in service and therefore amortization has not commenced.
F- 10
Property,
Plant and Equipment, Net
Property,
plant and equipment, net (“PP&E”) is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization and any accumulated
impairment losses. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the assets’ estimated useful
lives. The estimated useful lives of PP&E are as follows:
Equipment
– 5 – 10 years
Furniture
and Fixtures – 7 years
Software
– 3 – 5 years
Leasehold
improvements – Shorter of the estimate useful life or remaining lease term
Major
renewals and improvements are capitalized. Replacements, maintenance, and repairs, which do not significantly improve or extend the useful
life of the assets, are expensed when incurred.
Upon
the sale or retirement of assets, costs and the related accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts and any
gain or loss is included in the results of operations.
The
Company evaluates its long-lived assets or asset groups for indicators of possible impairment by determining whether there were any triggering
events that could impact the Company’s assets. If events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset or
asset group may not be recoverable the Company performs a comparison of the carrying amount to future net undiscounted cash flows expected
to be generated by such asset or asset group. Should an impairment exist, the impairment loss is measured based on the excess carrying
value of the asset over the asset’s fair value generally determined by estimates of future discounted cash flows.
The
Company has no t identified any such impairment losses for the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Goodwill
Goodwill
represents the excess of the cost over the fair market value of net assets acquired in business combinations. In accordance with Intangibles
– Goodwill and Other (Topic 350), goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently
if indicators of potential impairment exist. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level. The Company’s reporting
units have discrete financial information available, and management regularly reviews the operating results. For purposes of impairment
testing, goodwill is allocated to the applicable reporting units based on the Company’s reporting structure.
The
Company has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting
unit is less than its carrying value. Qualitative factors assessed for each of the applicable reporting units include, but are not limited
to, changes in macroeconomic conditions, industry and market considerations, cost factors, discount rates, competitive environments,
and financial performance of the reporting units. If the qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that the carrying
value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, a quantitative test is required.
Alternatively,
the Company may proceed directly to the quantitative test. Under the quantitative test, the estimated fair value of each reporting unit
is compared to its carrying value, including goodwill. If the carrying value of the reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds its fair
value, an impairment charge equal to the excess is recognized, up to the maximum amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.
During
the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company identified certain events and circumstances that indicated potential impairment of goodwill.
As a result, the Company performed a quantitative impairment test. The results of the test indicated that the fair value of certain reporting
units was lower than the carrying value, resulting in an impairment charge of $ 2,026,006 for goodwill which is recorded within goodwill
and intangible assets impairment in the consolidated statements of operations.
F- 11
Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets
The
Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be
recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by
determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total
of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess
of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets.
The
Company evaluates its intangible assets with finite lives for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. In accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other,” intangible
assets with finite lives, such as trademarks and customer relationships, are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The Company
compares the carrying value of the intangible asset to its fair value, which is determined based on projected future cash flows. If the
carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized, and the asset is written down to its fair value.
For
the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $ 9,879,075 related to certain intangible assets with
finite lives. The impairment primarily resulted from a decline in the fair value of customer relationships and trademarks identified
during the acquisitions of Wellgistics LLC and Wood Sage LLC.
Leases
The
Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842, Leases . Under this guidance, arrangements meeting the definition of a lease are
classified as operating or financing leases, and are recorded on the consolidated balance sheet as both a right of use asset and lease
liability, calculated by discounting fixed lease payments over the lease term at the rate implicit in the lease or the Company’s
incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are increased by interest and reduced by payments each period, and the right of use asset
is amortized over the lease term. For operating leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the right of use asset
result in straight-line rent expense over the lease term. For finance leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of
the right of use asset results in front-loaded expense over the lease term. Variable lease expenses are recorded when incurred.
In
calculating the right of use asset and lease liability, the Company has elected not to combine lease and non-lease components. The non-lease
components are accounted for separately and recognized as expenses when incurred. The Company excludes short-term leases having initial
terms of 12 months or less from the new guidance as an accounting policy election, and recognizes rent expense on a straight-line basis
over the lease term.
Offering
Costs
The
Company complies with the requirements of ASC 340-10-S99-1. Prior to the completion of an offering, offering costs are capitalized if
they are directly related to an equity financing that is probable of successful completion until such financing is consummated. The deferred
offering costs are charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion of an offering or to expense if the offering is abandoned,
terminated, or significantly delayed in the period of determination. Deferred offering costs includes professional fees incurred including
legal, accounting, underwriting and advisory services in connection with the Company’s equity offering.
As
of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had capitalized $ 0 and $ 875,385 , respectively, in deferred offering costs. For the year ended
December 31, 2025, a total of $ 875,385 in previously capitalized offering costs was charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion
of the IPO. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company incurred total offering costs of $ 1,471,141 related to the IPO and public
offering, all of which were charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion of the respective offerings.
F- 12
Revenue
Recognition
The
Company recognizes revenue from contracts with customers under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”).
To
determine revenue recognition for arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the
following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify the performance obligation(s) in the contract; (iii)
determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligation(s) in the contract; and (v) recognize
revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it
is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the
customer. At contract inception, once the contract was determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assessed the goods or
services promised within each contract and determined those that were performance obligations, and assessed whether each promised good
or service was distinct. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective
performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.
A
performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account in
ASC 606. The Company recognizes revenue at the point of sale. The majority of orders are placed via the Company’s website. Customers
generally pay by credit card at the time they place their order. The Company does have larger customers to whom they have extended terms
for payment. Generally, payments from these customers are due within 30 days of their order being shipped. However, a few customers have
been given terms extending out to 45 days.
Distribution
Wellgistics,
LLC provides distribution and third party logistics services to both pharmaceutical manufacturers and independent retail pharmacies.
The Company recognizes revenue when goods are delivered to the customer. The gross product revenues are subject to a variety of deductions,
which generally are estimated and recorded in the same period that the revenues are recognized. Such variable consideration represents
chargebacks, rebates, sales allowances and sales returns. These deductions represent estimates of the related obligations and, as such,
knowledge and judgment are considered when estimating the impact of these revenue deductions on gross sales for a reporting period. All
revenue for the Company is recognized at the point-in-time when delivered to customer based on contractual obligations. Any amount collected
from customers for goods not yet delivered is recorded as a contract liability.
Pharmacy
Wellgistics
Pharmacy is in the retail pharmacy business and fills prescriptions for drugs written by a doctor and recognizes revenue at the time
the patient confirms delivery of the prescription. Customer returns are not material. The following are the steps taken to recognize
revenue.
Step
One: Identify the contract with the customer — The prescription is written by a doctor for a customer and delivered to the Company.
The prescription identifies the performance obligations in the contract. The Company fills the prescription and delivers to the Customer
the prescription, fulfilling the contract. The collection is probable because there is confirmation that the customer has insurance for
the reimbursement to the Company prior to filling of the prescription.
Step
Two: Identify the performance obligations in the contract — Each prescription is distinct to the Customer.
Step
Three: Determine the transaction price — The consideration is not variable. The transaction price is determined to be the price
of the prescription at the time of delivery which considers the expected reimbursements from third party payors (e.g., pharmacy benefit
managers, insurance companies and government agencies).
Step
Four: Allocate the transaction price — The price of the prescription invoiced represents the expected amount of reimbursement from
third party payors. There is no difference between contract price and “stand-alone selling price”.
Step
Five: Recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation — Revenue is recognized upon the delivery of the
prescription.

Stock-Based
Compensation
The
Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. The Company
measures all stock-based awards granted to employees, directors and non-employee consultants based on the fair value on the date of the
grant and recognizes compensation expense for those awards over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of
the respective award. For awards with service-based vesting conditions, the Company records the expense for using the straight-line method.
For awards with performance-based vesting conditions, the Company records the expense if and when the Company concludes that it is probable
that the performance condition will be achieved.
The
Company classifies stock-based compensation expenses in its statement of operations in the same manner in which the award recipient’s
costs are classified. See Note 9 for further details.
Net
Loss per Share
Net
loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period,
excluding shares subject to redemption or forfeiture. The Company presents both basic and diluted net loss per share. Diluted net loss
per share reflects the actual weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the period, adjusted for potentially
dilutive securities outstanding.
Potentially
dilutive securities are excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share if their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. As all
potentially dilutive securities are considered anti-dilutive as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the diluted net loss per share is the
same as basic net loss per share for both periods.
F- 14
For
the year ended December 31, 2025, the following items were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share because including
these securities would have been anti-dilutive:

ASU
2023-09 — Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
In
December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09,
Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures . The ASU requires public business entities to disclose, on an
annual basis, a rate reconciliation presented in both dollar amounts and percentages, with specific categories and further disaggregation
of those categories based on a quantitative threshold equal to 5% or more of the amount determined by multiplying pre-tax income (loss)
by the applicable statutory rate. The ASU also requires disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign
jurisdictions. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 effective January 1, 2025 on a prospective basis. The adoption had a financial statement
disclosure impact only and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
ASU
2023-07 — Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures
In
November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures . The
ASU requires public entities to disclose significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker
(“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, as well as other segment items and a description
of its composition. The ASU also requires entities with a single reportable segment to provide all disclosures required under the standard.
The Company adopted ASU 2023-07 effective January 1, 2025. The adoption had a financial statement disclosure impact only and did not
have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

ASU
2023-08 — Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets
In
December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-08, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting
for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets . The ASU requires entities to subsequently measure qualifying crypto assets at fair value, with
changes in fair value recognized in net income each reporting period. The ASU also establishes specific disclosure requirements, including
information about significant crypto asset holdings, contractual sale restrictions, and changes in such holdings. The guidance applies
to crypto assets that meet all of the following criteria:
● Meet
the definition of intangible assets as defined in the ASC Master Glossary;
● Do
not provide enforceable rights to or claims on underlying goods, services, or other assets;
● Are
created or reside on a distributed ledger based on blockchain or similar technology;
● Are
secured through cryptography;
● Are
fungible; and
● Are
not created or issued by the reporting entity or its related parties.
F- 15
ASU
2023-08 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early
adoption permitted. The Company does not currently hold any material crypto assets. Accordingly, the adoption of ASU 2023-08 is not expected
to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements; however, the Company will continue to monitor its
investment activities and evaluate the impact of the standard should it acquire crypto assets in the future.
ASU
2024-03 — Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses
In
November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income — Expense Disaggregation
Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses . The ASU requires public business entities to disclose,
in the notes to financial statements, specified information about certain costs and expenses included in expense line items presented
on the face of the income statement. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim
periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2024-03
on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
ASU
2025-05 — Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets
In
July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for
Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets : The ASU provides a practical expedient permitting entities to assume that conditions at
the balance sheet date remain unchanged over the life of current accounts receivable and current contract assets when estimating expected
credit losses. The guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption
permitted. The Company does not expect ASU 2025-05 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
ASU
2025-06 — Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software
In
September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40):
Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software: The ASU requires entities to begin capitalizing software development
costs when management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and it is probable that the project will be completed
and the software will be used to perform its intended function (the “probable-to-complete recognition threshold”). The amendments
are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. Entities may apply the amendments
using a prospective, modified retrospective, or retrospective transition approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of
ASU 2025-06 and will assess the impact upon adoption.
ASU
2025-11 — Interim Reporting: Narrow-Scope Improvements
In
December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements : The ASU requires entities
to disclose events occurring since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The amendments
apply to all entities that present interim financial statements in accordance with GAAP. The guidance is effective for annual reporting
periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods, with early adoption permitted.
The amendments may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company expects ASU 2025-11 to impact its disclosures only
and does not expect it to affect its results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
NOTE
2. LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN
For
the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company has a net loss of $ 101,274,530 and $ 6,856,226 , respectively, and had an accumulated
deficit of $ 111,031,690 as of December 31, 2025. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company has net cash used in operating activities
of $ 10,855,029 . These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within twelve
months from the date these consolidated financial statements are issued.
F- 16
Management Plan
Subsequent to December 31, 2025, the Company completed
two private placements of convertible promissory notes raising aggregate gross proceeds of $ 9,000,000 . On January 5, 2026, the Company
entered into a note purchase agreement with certain investors pursuant to which the Company issued and sold convertible promissory notes
in an aggregate principal amount of $ 3,125,000 for aggregate gross proceeds of $ 2,500,000 , reflecting a 20 % original issue discount. On
January 16, 2026, the Company entered into a note purchase agreement with certain investors pursuant to which the Company issued and sold
secured convertible promissory notes in an aggregate principal amount of $ 8,125,000 for aggregate gross proceeds of $ 6,500,000 , reflecting
a 20 % original issue discount, secured by the assets of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The proceeds from these offerings
are being used to fund working capital requirements and general corporate purposes. See Note 15.
In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with FASB ASU 2014-15, “Disclosures
of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that the aforementioned plans do not sufficiently alleviate the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue
as a going concern through twelve months from the date these audited consolidated financial statements are issued. There can be no assurance
that the Company will generate sufficient cash flows from operations, successfully refinance or repay its near-term debt obligations,
or secure additional financing on acceptable terms, or at all. These audited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating
to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue
as a going concern.

legal dispute between the Company and the supplier has been settled where the Company was awarded $ 4.6 million. The award was not accounted
for due to the uncertainty of receipt. Following the bankruptcy filing of FDNS the court awarded the complete possession of the inventory
to the Company and Vide the United States Bankruptcy Court order dated March 15, 2023, the entity is in receipt of a monthly plan payment
of $ 3,014 for the FDNS from March 2023 which has been included in other income in the consolidated statements of operations. The related
inventory has experienced minimal sales activity, and management determined that there is no active market for the product and that the
inventory is non-moving. Based on this assessment, the Company concluded that the carrying value was not recoverable. Accordingly, the
Company recorded a reserve for obsolete inventory of $ 5,988,257 , which is included in cost of net revenues in the consolidated statements of operations.

On
November 24, 2025, the Company entered into a License Agreement with Datavault AI Inc., pursuant to which the Company obtained a non-transferable
license to certain proprietary technology for use within the United States pharmaceutical distribution market. In connection with this
agreement, the Company recorded a license right intangible asset of $ 2,500,000 , representing the non-refundable license fee payable under
the agreement. The license right has been determined to be a finite-lived intangible asset. As the licensed technology had not yet been
placed into service as of December 31, 2025, no amortization was recorded during the year ended December 31, 2025. Amortization is expected
to commence upon the technology being placed into service, which is currently anticipated to occur in 2026, and will be recognized on
a straight-line basis over an estimated useful life of seven years .
F- 18
During
the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company identified indicators of impairment related to certain intangible assets acquired in connection

trademark, for a total intangible asset impairment charge of $ 9,879,075 . These charges were recorded within goodwill and intangible asset
impairment in the consolidated statements of operations and reduced the carrying values of the respective assets to their estimated fair
values as of December 31, 2025. No impairment charges were recognized during the year ended December 31, 2024.

Integral
Health Inc. (“Integral Health”)
On
August 22, 2023, Wood Sage entered into a non-interest bearing promissory note (“Note”) with Integral Health, a then related
party with common ownership and board members, pursuant to which Integral made a certain loan to Wood Sage in the amount of $ 1,300,000
to satisfy the purchase price under the agreements by which Wood Sage acquired Wellgistics Pharmacy and DelivMeds. No later than 30 days
after a change in control to Wood Sage, the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Note became due and payable by Wood Sage, which
occurred upon the consummation of the Company’s acquisition of Wood Sage.
On
October 30, 2025, the Company entered into a Debt Conversion Agreement (the “Integra Health DCA”) with Integra Health Inc.,
Blue Cap Acquisitions LLC, and WoodSage. Pursuant to the agreement, the outstanding indebtedness of $ 1,300,000 under the Note was converted
into 1,857,143 shares of the Company’s common stock at a stated conversion price of $ 0.70 per share. The fair value of the shares
issued on the conversion date was $ 0.786 per share. As a result, the total fair value of the equity issued exceeded the carrying amount
of the debt extinguished by approximately $ 159,714 . Accordingly, the Company recognized a loss on debt extinguishment of $ 159,714 for
the year ended December 31, 2025, which is included in other expense in the consolidated statements of operations. Upon conversion, the
Note was fully satisfied and extinguished.
Merchant
Cash Advances
On
March 18, 2025, the Company entered into a merchant cash advance (“March 2025 MCA”) agreement with Cedar Advance LLC pursuant
to which it received gross funding of $ 1,900,000 in exchange for the sale of future receivables totaling $ 2,840,000 . Of the $ 1,900,000
gross funding, $ 1,118,250 was applied directly to satisfy the amount outstanding under a prior MCA arrangement, and the remaining $ 781,750
was remitted to the Company for working capital purposes. The Company accounts for the arrangement as a debt obligation. The difference
between the repayment amount and the net proceeds received was recorded as a debt discount and is amortized to interest expense over
the estimated term of the agreement using the effective interest method.
On
October 20, 2025, the Company refinanced the March 2025 MCA pursuant to a new agreement with Cedar Advance LLC. Under the October agreement,
the stated purchase price was $ 2,898,000 . Of this amount, $ 1,198,800 was applied directly to satisfy outstanding amounts under the prior
MCA, and $ 701,200 was remitted to the Company. The total repayment obligation under the new arrangement resulted in a principal balance
of $ 1,900,000 , with fixed weekly payments of $ 56,800 over an estimated 51 -week term.
F- 20
The
Company evaluated the March 2025 and October 2025 refinancing in accordance with ASC 470 and concluded that the transaction represented
a debt extinguishment. Accordingly, the remaining unamortized debt discount associated with the refinancing written off, and the Company
recognized a loss on debt extinguishment of $ 402,153 for the year ended December 31, 2025.
For
the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized amortization of debt discount of $ 1,252,211 and $ 217,017 related to
its merchant cash advance arrangements, which is recorded as interest expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
As
of December 31, 2025, the gross contractual repayment obligation under the merchant cash advance was $ 2,547,200 . The related unamortized
debt discount was $ 803,066 , resulting in a net carrying amount of $ 1,744,134 , which is classified as a current liability in the consolidated
balance sheets. As of December 31, 2024, the gross contractual repayment obligation under the merchant cash advance was $ 1,833,930 . The
related unamortized debt discount was $ 519,430 , resulting in a net carrying amount of $ 1,314,500 , of which $ 1,259,415 was classified
as a current liability and $ 55,085 was classified as a long-term liability in the consolidated balance sheets.
Loan
Payable
During
the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company entered into multiple financing arrangements with Agile Capital Funding LLC (“Agile”)
and the Company accounts for these arrangements as debt obligations.
On
May 14, 2025, the Company entered into an agreement with Agile pursuant to which it received net proceeds of $ 500,000 in exchange for
total contractual repayments of $ 756,000 . The agreement required fixed weekly payments over an estimated 24-week term. The Company recorded
the obligation at the net proceeds received, with the excess of the total contractual repayment amount over the net proceeds recorded
as a debt discount. The debt discount was amortized to interest expense over the estimated term of the agreement using the effective
interest method.
On
June 25, 2025, the Company entered into a separate agreement with Agile pursuant to which it received net proceeds of $ 250,000 in exchange
for total contractual repayments of $ 367,200 . The arrangement required fixed weekly payments over an estimated 28 -week term. The Company
recorded the obligation at the net proceeds received and recognized a corresponding debt discount, which was amortized to interest expense
using the effective interest method.
On
August 26, 2025, the Company entered into a refinancing arrangement with Agile pursuant to which it received net proceeds of approximately
$ 500,074 . Total contractual repayments under the August agreement were approximately $ 1,872,000 , with fixed weekly payments over an estimated
33 -week term. The August 2025 agreement was used to satisfy the outstanding balances of both the May 14, 2025 and June 25, 2025 arrangements.
The Company evaluated the transaction under ASC 470-50 and concluded that the refinancing represented an extinguishment of the prior
debt obligations. Accordingly, the Company derecognized the carrying amounts of the extinguished debt and recorded a loss on debt extinguishment
related to the write-off of the remaining unamortized debt discount.
On
October 29, 2025, the Company refinanced the August 2025 arrangement pursuant to a new agreement with Agile. Under the October agreement,
the Company received net proceeds of $ 533,889 , of which $ 50,000 represented issuance costs to be amortized over the term of the debt.
Total contractual repayments under the October agreement are $ 2,880,000 , with fixed weekly payments of $ 75,789 over an estimated 38 -week
term. A portion of the proceeds was applied directly to satisfy the outstanding balance of the August 2025 obligation. The Company accounted
for the October transaction as a debt extinguishment in accordance with ASC 470-50 and recognized a loss related to the write-off of
the remaining unamortized debt discount associated with the extinguished debt.
F- 21
For
the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized total losses on debt extinguishment of $ 578,524 related to Agile refinancing.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized $ 765,681 of debt discount amortization, which is included in interest expense
in the consolidated statements of operations.
As
of December 31, 2025, the gross contractual repayment obligation under the Agile agreement was $ 2,366,766 . The related unamortized debt
discount was $ 765,710 , resulting in a net carrying amount of $ 1,601,056 , which is classified as a current liability in the consolidated
balance sheets.
Note
payable – owners of Wellgistics, LLC
On
August 23, 2024, Wellgistics Health and the owners of Wellgistics LLC entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Membership Interest Purchase
Agreement (“MIPA”). Pursuant to the amended agreement, the Company issued a promissory note in the aggregate principal amount
of $ 15,000,000 , which bears simple interest at a rate equal to the Prime Rate as published by The Wall Street Journal on January 1 of
the applicable year. The principal and accrued interest were originally payable in three equal annual installments commencing on the
first anniversary of the effective date of the related registration statement.
On
July 24, 2025, the parties executed the Eighth Amendment to the MIPA, which increased the principal amount of the promissory note from
$ 15.0 million to $ 17.5 million and modified the repayment schedule whereby $ 5,000,000 of principal shall be payable on the first and
second anniversaries and $ 7,500,000 of principal shall be payable on the third anniversary, of the effective date of Promissory Note,
