NUTRIBAND INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
as of and for the Three Months Ended April 30,
2024 and 2023
1. ORGANIZATION
AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Organization
Nutriband Inc.
(the “Company”) is a Nevada corporation, incorporated on January 4, 2016. In January 2016, the Company acquired Nutriband
Ltd, an Irish company which was formed by the Company’s chief executive officer in 2012 to enter the health and wellness market
by marketing transdermal patches. References to the Company relate to the Company and its subsidiaries unless the context indicates otherwise.
On August 1,
2018, the Company acquired 4P Therapeutics LLC (“4P Therapeutics”) for $ 2,250,000 , consisting of 250,000 shares of common
stock, valued at $ 1,850,000 , and $ 400,000 , and a royalty of 6 % on all revenue generated by the Company from the abuse deterrent intellectual
property that had been developed by 4P Therapeutics payable to the former owner of 4P Therapeutics. The former owner of 4P Therapeutics
has been a director of the Company since April 2018, when the Company entered into an agreement to acquire 4P Therapeutics. The former
owner resigned as a director in January 2022.
4P Therapeutics
is engaged in the development of a series of transdermal pharmaceutical products, that are in the preclinical stage of development. Prior
to the acquisition of 4P Therapeutics, the Company’s business was the development and marketing of a range of transdermal consumer
patches. Most of these products are considered drugs in the United States and cannot be marketed in the United States without approval
by the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”). The Company entered a feasibility agreement as an initial step to seek FDA
approval of its consumer transdermal products and its consumer products which are not being marketed in the United States.
With the acquisition
of 4P Therapeutics, 4P Therapeutics’ drug development business became the Company’s principal business. The Company’s
approach is to use generic drugs that are off patent and incorporate them into the Company’s transdermal drug delivery system. Although
these medications have received FDA approval in oral or injectable form, the Company needs to conduct a transdermal product development
program which will include the preclinical and clinical trials that are necessary to receive FDA approval before we can market any of
our pharmaceutical products.
On August 25,
2020, the Company formed Pocono Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“Pocono Pharmaceuticals”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
On August 31, 2020, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities associated with the Transdermal, Topical, Cosmetic, and Nutraceutical
business of Pocono Coated Products LLC (“PCP”). The net assets were contributed to Pocono Pharmaceuticals. Included in the
transaction, Pocono Pharmaceuticals also acquired 100 % of the membership interests of Active Intelligence LLC (“Active Intelligence”).
Pocono Pharmaceuticals
is a coated products manufacturing entity organized to take advantage of its unique process capabilities and experience. Pocono helps
their customers with product design and development along with manufacturing to bring new products to market with minimal capital investment.
Pocono Pharmaceutical’s competitive edge is a low-cost manufacturing base: a result of its unique processes and state-of-the-art
material technology. Active Intelligence manufactures activated kinesiology tape. The tape has transdermal and topical properties. This
tape is used the same as traditional kinesiology tape.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Unaudited
Financial Statements
The consolidated
balance sheet as of April 30, 2024, and the consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the
periods presented have been prepared by the Company and are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely
of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to prepare fairly the financial position, results of operations, changes in stockholders’
equity and cash flows for all periods presented have been made. The results for the three months ended April 30, 2024, are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in Nutriband’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January
31, 2024.
Certain information
and footnote disclosures required under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP”) have
been condensed or omitted from these consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations, including interim reporting
requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The preparation of consolidated financial statements
in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and the disclosures
of contingent amounts in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes. Actual results could differ from estimates.
The Company’s
significant accounting policies in Note 2 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2024. There
were no significant changes to these accounting policies during the three months ended April 30, 2024.
Forward
Stock Split
On July 26,
2022, our Board of Directors approved the amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to effect a 7- for- 6 forward stock split (the “Stock
Split”) of our outstanding common stock. The Company filed the amendment set forth in a Certificate of Change with the Secretary
of State of Nevada on August 4, 2022. The 7:6 forward stock split was effective for trading purposes on the Nasdaq Capital Market on August
12, 2022. Each shareholder of record as of the August 15, 2022 record date received one (1) additional share for each six (6) shares held
as of the record date. No fractional shares of common stock were issued in connection with the Stock Split. Instead, all shares were rounded
up to the next whole share. In connection with the Stock Split, which did not require shareholder approval under the Nevada corporation
law, the number of shares of common stock of the Company was increased in the same ratio as the shares of outstanding common stock were
increased in the Stock Split, from 250,000,000 authorized shares to 291,666,666 authorized shares.
All share and
per share information in these financial statements retroactively reflect the forward stock split.
Going
Concern Assessment
Management
assesses liquidity and going concern uncertainty in the Company’s condensed financial statements to determine whether there is sufficient
cash on hand and working capital, including available borrowings on loans, to operate for a period of at least one year from the date
the consolidated financial statements are issued or available to be issued, which is referred to as the “look-forward period”,
as defined in GAAP. As part of this assessment, based on conditions that are known and reasonably knowable to management, management will
consider various scenarios, forecasts, projections, estimates and will make certain key assumptions, including timing and nature of projected
cash expenditures or programs, its ability to delay or curtail expenditures or programs and its ability to raise additional capital, if
necessary, among other factors. Based on this assessment, as necessary or applicable, management makes certain assumptions around implementing
curtailments or delays in the nature and timing of programs and expenditures to the extent it deems probable those implementations can
be achieved and management has the proper authority to execute them within the look-forward period.
7
As of April 30, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of
$ 8,347,740 and working capital of $ 7,313,082 . For the three months ended April 30, 2024, the Company incurred a net loss from operations
of $ 1,898,077 and used cash flow from operations of $ 833,926 . The Company has generated operating losses since its inception and has relied
on sales of securities and issuance of third-party and related-party debt to support cash flow from operations. The Company has used these
proceeds from the sales of securities and issuance of third-party and related party debt to fund operations and will continue to use the
funds as needed. In March 2023, the Company entered into a three-year $ 2,000,000 Credit Line Note facility with a related party, amended
on July 13, 2023, to $ 5,000,000 , which will permit the Company to draw down on the credit line to fund the Company’s research and
development of its Aversa product. On April 19, 2024, the Company received proceeds of $ 8,400,000 from equity financing with European
investors, of which $ 7.12 million is from related parties.
Management
has prepared estimates of operations for the next twelve months and believes that sufficient funds will be generated from operations to
fund its operations for one year from the date of the filing of these condensed consolidated financial statements, which indicates improved
operations and the Company’s ability to continue operations as a going concern.
Management
believes the substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is alleviated by the above assessment.
Principles
of Consolidation
The consolidated
financial statements of the Company include the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated. The operations of 4P Therapeutics are included in the Company’s financial statements from the date of acquisition
of August 1, 2018, and the operations of Pocono and Active Intelligence are included in the Company’s financial statements from
the date of acquisition of September 1, 2020 under Pocono Pharmaceuticals Inc. The wholly owned subsidiaries are as follows:
Nutriband
Ltd.
4P
Therapeutics LLC
Pocono
Pharmaceuticals Inc.
Use of
Estimates
The preparation
of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates including, but not limited to,
those related to such items as income tax exposures, accruals, depreciable/useful lives, allowance for doubtful accounts and valuation
allowances. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on other various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable
under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that
are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue
Recognition
In May 2014,
the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”), which amends the
accounting standards for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 is based on principles that govern the recognition of revenue at an amount an
entity expects to be entitled when products are transferred to a customer. The Company recognizes revenue based on the five criteria for
revenue recognition established under Topic 606: 1) identify the contract, 2) identify separate performance obligations, 3) determine
the transaction price, 4) allocate the transaction price among the performance obligations, and 5) recognize revenue as the performance
obligations are satisfied.
8
Revenue
Types
The following
is a description of the Company’s revenue types, which include professional services and sale of goods:
● Contract
development and manufacturing services for consumer health transdermal, topical and tape products with revenues listed under sale of
goods.
● Product
revenues derived from the sale of the Company’s consumer transdermal, topical and tape products with sales listed under sale of
goods.
● Contract
research and development services for pharmaceutical and medical devices for life sciences customers with revenues listed under services.
Contracts with Customers
A contract with a customer exists when
(i) we enter into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the goods or services to be
transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these goods or services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and, (iii)
we determine that collection of substantially all consideration for services that are transferred is probable based on the customer’s
intent and ability to pay the promised consideration.
Contract
Liabilities
Deferred revenue is a liability related
to a revenue producing activity for which revenue has not been recognized. The Company records deferred revenue when it receives consideration
from a contract before achieving certain criteria that must be met for revenue to be recognized in conformity with GAAP.
Performance Obligations
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 the new revenue standard. The contract
transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation
is satisfied. For the Company’s different revenue service types, the performance obligation is satisfied at different times. The
Company’s performance obligations include providing products and professional services in the area of research. The Company recognizes
product revenue performance obligations in most cases when the product has shipped to the customer. When we perform professional service
work, we recognize revenue when we have the right to invoice the customer for the work completed, which typically occurs over time on
a monthly basis for the work performed during that month.
All revenue
recognized in the income statement is considered to be revenue from contracts with customers.

Disaggregation of Revenues
The Company
disaggregates its revenue from contracts with customers by type and by geographical location. See the tables:

Cash
and cash equivalents.
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash on deposit in
money market accounts. The Company considers short-term highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less
that are not part of an investment pool to be cash equivalents. As of April 30, 2024, the Company had $ 7,879,000 that exceeded federally
insured limits.
Accounts
receivable
Trade accounts receivables are recorded at the net invoice value and
are not interest bearing. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses from the inability of its customers
to make the required payments. The Company determines its allowances by both the specific identification of customer accounts where appropriate
and the application of historical loss to non-applicable accounts. For the three months ended April 30, 2024, and 2023, the Company recorded
bad debt expenses of $ 1,200 and $ -0- , respectively, for doubtful accounts related to accounts receivable. During the year ended January
31, 2024, the Company entered into an accounts receivable sale agreement for one of its subsidiaries. The Company received $ 106,528 in
funds against an account receivable that is currently a claim in bankruptcy. The net accounts receivable remain on the books of the Company
and a corresponding amount has been included as a secured borrowing liability under Notes payable. As of April 30, 2024, the receivable
has been reserved in full. If the bankruptcy claim is not paid in full by the debtor, Company is obligated to pay any difference to the
factor. The loan bears interest at 10 %. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 during 2013 and implemented the guidance on expected credit losses.
Inventories
Inventories
are valued at the lower of cost and reasonable value determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Net realized value is the
estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses. The cost of finished goods and
work in process is comprised of material costs, direct labor costs and other direct costs and related production overheads (based on normal
operating capacity). As of April 30, 2024, total inventory was $ 168,505 , consisting of work-in-process of $ 27,447 , finished goods of $ 26,751
and raw materials of $ 114,307 . As of January 31, 2024, total inventory was $ 168,605 , consisting of work-in-process of $ 7,466 , finished
goods of $ 8,707 and raw materials of $ 134,691 .
10
Property,
Plant and Equipment
Property and
equipment represent an important component of the Company’s assets. The Company depreciates its plant and equipment on a straight-line
basis over the estimated useful life of the assets. Property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost. Expenditures for minor
repairs, maintenance and replacement parts which do not increase the useful lives of the assets are charged to expense as incurred. All
major additions and improvements are capitalized. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. The lives over which the fixed
assets are depreciated range from 3 to 20 years as follows:
Lab Equipment
5 - 10 years
Furniture and fixtures
3 years
Machinery and equipment
10 - 20 years
Intangible
Assets
Intangible
assets include trademarks, intellectual property and customer base acquired through business combinations. The Company accounts for Other
Intangible Assets under the guidance of ASC 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other.” The Company capitalizes certain costs related
to patent technology. A substantial component of the purchase price related to the Company’s acquisitions have also been assigned
to intellectual property and other intangibles. Under the guidance, other intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their
estimated useful lives. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested annually for impairment. Trademarks, intellectual property
and customer base are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of ten years .
Goodwill
Goodwill represents
the difference between the total purchase price and the fair value of assets (tangible and intangible) and liabilities at the date of
acquisition. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually on January 31, and more frequently as circumstances warrant, and written down
only in the period in which the recorded value of such assets exceeds their fair value. The Company does not amortize goodwill in accordance
with ASC 350. In connection with the Company’s acquisition of 4P Therapeutics LLC in 2018, the Company recorded Goodwill of $ 1,719,235 .
On August 31, 2020, in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Pocono Coated Products LLC and Active Intelligence LLC, the
Company recorded Goodwill of $ 5,810,640 . During the years ended January 31, 2024, and 2023, the Company recorded an impairment charge
of $-0- and $ 327,326 , respectively, reducing the Active Intelligence LLC Goodwill to $ 3,302,478 . As of April 30, 2024, and January 31,
2024, Goodwill amounted to $ 5,021,713 and $ 5,021,713 , respectively.
Long-lived
Assets
Management
reviews long-lived assets for potential impairment whenever significant events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not recoverable and
exceeds its fair value. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the estimated undiscounted
cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If an impairment exists, the resulting write-down would
be the difference between the fair market value of the long-lived asset and the related book value.
Earnings
per Share
Basic earnings
per share of common stock is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during
the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common
stock and potential shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Potential shares of common stock consist of shares issuable
upon the exercise of outstanding options and common stock purchase warrants. As of April 30, 2024, and 2023, there were 6,747,873 and

Stock-Based
Compensation
ASC 718, “Compensation
- Stock Compensation,” prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee
services, and, since February 1, 2019, non-employees, are acquired. Transactions include incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering
to issue shares, options and other equity instruments such as employee stock ownership plans and stock appreciation rights. Share-based
payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements
based on their fair values. That expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange
for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). As of February 1, 2019, pursuant to ASC 2018-07, ASC
718 was applied to stock-based compensation for both employees and non-employees.
Business
Combinations
The Company
recognizes the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity at the acquisition date,
measured at their fair values as of that date, with limited exceptions specified in the accounting literature. In accordance with this
guidance, acquisition-related costs, including restructuring costs, must be recognized separately from the acquisition and will generally
be expensed as incurred. That replaces the cost-allocation process detailed in previous accounting literature, which required the cost
of an acquisition to be allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value.
Leases
In
February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases” (Topic 842), to provide a new comprehensive model for lease accounting
under this guidance, lessees and lessors should apply a “right-of-use” model in accounting for all leases (including subleases)
and eliminate the concept of operating leases and off-balance-sheet leases. Recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses will
depend on classification as a finance or operating lease. Similar modifications have been made to lessor accounting in-line with revenue
recognition guidance.
The
Company applies the guidance for right-of-use accounting for all leases and records the operating lease liabilities on its balance sheet.
The Company completed the necessary changes to its accounting policies, processes, disclosure and internal control over financial reporting.
Research
and Development Expenses
Research and
development costs are expensed as incurred.
Income
Taxes
Taxes are calculated
in accordance with taxation principles currently effective in the United States and Ireland.
The Company
accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities
for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method,
deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and
liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of
a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent they believe
these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, the Company considers all available positive and
negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning
strategies and recent financial operations. In the event the Company was to determine that it would be able to realize its
deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of its net recorded amount, the Company would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance
which would reduce the provision for income taxes.
12
Fair
Value Measurements
FASB ASC
820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure” (“ASC 820”), defines fair value as the exchange price that would
be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or
liability in an orderly transaction between participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which
requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC
820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value.
The Company
utilizes the accounting guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures for all financial assets and liabilities and nonfinancial
assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis during
the reporting period. The fair value is an exit price, representing the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer
a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants based upon the best use of the asset or liability at the measurement
date. The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. ASC 820 establishes
a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers are defined as follows:
Level 1
-
Observable
inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets.
Level 2
-
Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable.
Level 3
-
Unobservable
inputs about which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
The carrying
value of the Company’s financial instruments, including accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses,
and deferred revenue approximate their fair value due to the short maturities of these financial instruments.
Recent
Accounting Standards
In June 2016,
the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), The ASU introduces a new credit loss methodology. Current
Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”), which requires earlier recognition of credit losses, which also provides additional transparency
about credit risk. Since its original issuance in 2016, the FASB has issued several updates to the original ASU. The Company adopted ASU
2016-13 during the year ended January 31, 2024. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the Company’s balance
sheet or statement of operations.
The Company
has reviewed all other FASB-issued ASU accounting pronouncements and interpretations thereof that have effective dates during the period
reported and in future periods. The Company has carefully considered the new pronouncements that alter previous GAAP and does not believe
that any new or modified principles will have a material impact on the Company’s reported financial position or operations in the
near term. The applicability of any standard is subject to the formal review of the Company’s financial management and certain standards
are under consideration.

fraudulent activities, and tortious interference and seeks damages following the Company’s termination of an engagement letter for
assistance with a public stock offering. Gunnar is seeking over $ 500,000 in damages plus punitive damages, while LB is demanding reimbursement
of legal fees.
In response, the Company denies all
allegations, alleging that the engagement letter was unenforceable, and its termination was legally justified. The Company has also initiated
