9A. Controls and Procedures.
Management’s
Conclusions Regarding Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Evaluation
of disclosure controls and procedures.
Based
on management’s evaluation (with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO)), as
of the end of the period covered by this report, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
in Rules 13a-15I and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)), are effective to provide
reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded,
processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to
management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure.
Inherent
Limitations on Controls.
Management,
including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent or detect all errors and fraud. Any
control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute,
assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to
errors or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. The
design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered
relative to their costs.
Management’s
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f)
and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures
that: (a) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions
of assets; (b) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements
in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance
with authorizations of our management and Board of Directors; and (c) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection
of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements. Our internal
control over financial reporting is a process designed with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial
officer or persons performing similar functions to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles.
Our
management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022. In making this assessment,
we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated
Framework (2013). Based on this assessment our management believes that, as of December 31, 2022, our internal control over financial
reporting is effective under those criteria.
Changes
in internal control over financial reporting.
There
has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our fourth fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2022, that has
materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
This
Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control
over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant
to rules from the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

REPORT
OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To
the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
NextPlat
Corp and Subsidiaries
Opinion
on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of NextPlat Corp and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December
31, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for each
of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2022, 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, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period
ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
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 were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part
of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing
an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our
audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical
Audit Matters
The
critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements
that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relate to accounts or disclosures that are
material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The
communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole,
and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the
accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
Equity
Method Investment – Refer to Notes 7 to the consolidated financial statements
Critical
Audit Matter Description
As
described in Note 7, on August 30, 2022 the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Progressive
Care, Inc. (“Progressive”), which subsequently closed on September 2, 2022.
As
a result of the SPA and related transactions, the Company paid an aggregate of $7,000,000 for an economic and voting interest in Progressive
of 32.47%.
F- 2
Subsequent
to September 2, 2022, the Company’s ownership interest decreased to 31.89% and as of December 31, 2022, the board seats, combined
with the Company’s ownership interest of 33.47% provide the Company with significant influence over Progressive, but not a controlling
interest. Since Progressive does not depend on the Company for continuing financial support to maintain operations as of December 31,
2022, the Company has determined that Progressive is not a variable interest entity, and therefore, the Company is not required to determine
the primary beneficiary of Progressive for potential consolidation.
How
the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Addressing
the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated
financial statements.
●
These
procedures included, among others, (i) testing management’s process for determining the accounting treatment of the investment;
(ii) and testing the completeness and accuracy of the underlying data used to record the investment and recognize a gain or loss
on the investment.
●
Evaluating,
testing and relying on Progressive’s financial data from the date of the investment to December 31, 2022.
●
Professionals
with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in evaluating the appropriate accounting treatment of the investment.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since
2014.

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
On
March 24, 2021, the Company’s shareholders via majority shareholder consent authorized a stock split not to exceed 1-for-5 reverse
stock split. A definitive Information Statement relating to the shareholder consent was filed with the SEC on March 13, 2021. The Company’s
Board of Directors (the “Board”) subsequently approved the 1-for-5 reverse stock split. The Company filed a Certificate of
Change to its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of its issued and outstanding common stock,
at a ratio of 1-for-5 . The effective time of the reverse stock split was 12:01 a.m. ET on May 28, 2021. The Company’s common stock
began trading on a split-adjusted basis commencing upon market open on May 28, 2021. The common stock has been assigned a new CUSIP number,
68557F 209. The warrants were assigned the CUSIP number, 68557F 118. No fractional shares of common stock were issued as a result of
the reverse stock split. Stockholders of record who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share received a whole share.
On
December 16, 2021, at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of the Company the stockholders approved
certificate of amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation changing the Company’s name to NextPlat
Corp. The Name Change Amendment was filed on January 18, 2022, and the Company’s name change from Orbsat Corp to NextPlat Corp
was effective as of January 21, 2022.
Effective
January 21, 2022, the trading symbol for the Company’s common stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”)
on the NASDAQ Capital Market will be “NXPL” and the trading symbol for the Company’s Warrants (the “Warrants”)
on the NASDAQ Capital Market will be “NXPLW.” The CUSIP number for our Common Stock (68557F209) and our Warrants (68557F118)
remain unchanged. Prior to January 21, 2022, our common stock and warrants were traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbols
“OSAT” and “OSATW,” respectively.
On
June 22, 2022, NextPlat B.V. (“NXPLBV”) was formed in Amsterdam, Netherlands, as a wholly owned subsidiary of NextPlat Corp.
Presently, NXPLBV does not have any active operations.
On
September 2, 2022, the Company closed a transaction with Progressive Care Inc. (OTCQB: RXMD) (“Progressive Care”), pursuant
to which we purchased 3,000 newly issued units of securities from Progressive Care (the “Units”) at a price per Unit of $ 2,000
for an aggregate purchase price of $ 6.0 million (the “Unit Purchase”). Each Unit consists of one share of Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock of Progressive Care (“Series B Preferred Stock”) and one warrant to purchase a share of Series B Preferred
Stock (“RXMD Warrants”).
Each
share of Series B Preferred Stock votes as a class with the common stock of Progressive Care, and has 500
votes per share. Likewise, each share of Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into 500
shares of Progressive Care common stock. In addition, the Series B Preferred Stock has a liquidation and dividend preference. The
RXMD Warrants have a five-year term, and are immediately exercisable, in whole or in part, and contain cashless exercise provisions.
Each Warrant is exercisable at $ 2,000
per share of Series B Preferred Stock.
Following
the consummation of the Unit Purchase, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Charles M. Fernandez, and our board member, Rodney Barreto,
were appointed to Progressive Care’s Board of Directors, with Mr. Fernandez appointed to serve as Chairman of Progressive Care’s
Board of Directors and Mr. Barreto appointed to serve as a Vice Chairman of Progressive Care’s Board of Directors. On November
11, 2022, the Progressive Care board of directors elected Mr. Fernandez to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of Progressive Care.
In
addition, on September 2, 2022, NextPlat, Charles Fernandez, Rodney Barreto and certain other purchasers purchased from Iliad Research
and Trading, L.P. (“Iliad”) a Secured Convertible Promissory Note, dated March 6, 2019, made by Progressive Care to Iliad
(the “Note”). The accrued and unpaid principal and interest under the note at the time of the purchase was approximately
$ 2.8 million. The aggregate purchase price paid to Iliad for the Note was $ 2.3 million of which NextPlat contributed $ 1.0 million and
Messrs. Fernandez and Barreto contributed $ 400,000 each (the “Note Purchase”).
In
connection with the Note Purchase, NextPlat, Messrs. Fernandez and Barreto and the other purchasers of the Note entered into a Debt
Modification Agreement with Progressive Care. Pursuant to the Debt Modification Agreement, the interest rate under the Note was
reduced from 10 %
to 5 %
per annum and the maturity date was extended to May 31, 2027. In addition, the conversion price under the note was changed to $ 4.00
per share of Common Stock. Pursuant to the Debt Modification Agreement, NextPlat, Messrs. Fernandez and Barreto and the other
purchasers of the Note have the right, exercisable at any time, to redeem all or any portion of the Note. The Debt Modification
Agreement also provides that the Note will automatically convert upon the later to occur of: (a) the completion by Progressive Care
of a reverse stock split, and (b) the listing of Progressive Care’s common stock on a national exchange. In consideration of
the concessions in the Debt Modification Agreement, Progressive Care issued 105,000
shares of its common stock to the purchasers of the Note, of which NextPlat, Charles Fernandez and Rodney Barreto, received 45,653 , 18,261 ,
and 18,261 shares,
respectively, in each case after giving effect to a 1-for-200 reverse stock split enacted
by Progressive Care on December 30, 2022.
On November 16, 2022, the Company
entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Progressive Care, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to
purchase, from time to time during the three year term of the SPA, up to an aggregate of $ 10.0 million of secured convertible debentures
from Progressive Care (the “Debentures”). Pursuant to the SPA, all purchases of the Debentures will be made at the Company’s
sole election and the proceeds from each purchase will be used by Progressive Care only as approved by the Company’s Board of Directors.
Until used, the proceeds from each purchase of Debentures will be deposited in a controlled account. If and when the Company elects to
purchase Debentures under the SPA, the minimum principal amount that can be purchased at any time is $ 1.0 million. No debentures were
purchased under the SPA for the year ended December 31, 2022.
In addition, at the closing of
each purchase under the SPA, the Company and Progressive will enter into a Registration Rights Agreement (each, a “Registration
Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which Progressive Care will agree to register the shares of Progressive common stock issuable upon
conversion in full of the Debentures purchased by the Company at such closing.
In accordance with
the form of Debenture to be used for each purchase under the SPA, each Debenture will be convertible at any time, upon the Company’s
election, to shares of Progressive Care’s common stock at a conversion price of $ 6.0
per share ( on a post-split bases and may be further adjusted from time to time for share dividends, share splits, reverse
share splits, etc.). In addition, each
Debenture will mature on the third anniversary of its issuance and bear interest at 5.0% per annum, payable quarterly. At the Company’s
election, interest can be paid in cash, shares of Progressive Care’s common stock, or some combination thereof. Progressive Care
has the right to prepay the Debenture at any time provided that it gives the Company seven (7) business days advance written notice,
during which time the Company could elect to convert the Debenture to Progressive Care’s common stock. Upon the prepayment of a
Debenture, Progressive Care will pay the Company an amount equal to the sum of: (i) all outstanding principal under such Debenture, plus
(ii) all accrued and unpaid interest under such Debenture through the prepayment date, multiplied by (iii) 110%. While amounts are outstanding
under a Debenture, Progressive Care will be subject to certain restrictive covenants, including with respect to the incurrence of indebtedness,
the imposition of liens on Progressive Care’s assets, changes to the Progressive Care’s organization documents, etc.
In connection with
the SPA, on November 16, 2022, the Company entered into a Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”) with Progressive
Care and its subsidiaries, Touchpoint RX, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“Touchpoint”), Family Physicians RX,
Inc., a Florida corporation (“FPRX”), and ClearMetrX Inc., a Florida corporation (“ClearMetrX” and collectively
with Progressive, Touchpoint and FPRX, the “Borrower Parties”). Pursuant to the Security Agreement, the Borrower Parties
granted the Company a security interest in all of their respective assets to secure Progressive Care’s obligations under the Debentures.

Liquidity
June
2021 Public Offering
As
an early-stage growth company, NextPlat’s ability to access capital is critical. On June 2, 2021, through an upsized underwritten
public offering of 2,880,000 units at a price to the public of $ 5.00 per unit, the Company received gross proceeds of $ 14,404,666 (the
“June Offering”). See Note 12, Stockholders’ Equity, for more information regarding the June Offering.
In
connection with closing of the June Offering, the Underwriter partially exercised its overallotment option and purchased an additional
432,000 warrants at $ 0.01 per warrant, which had an exercise price of $ 5.00 per share and a 5 year term, for additional gross proceeds to the Company of $ 4,320 . On June 28, 2021, the Underwriter, upon
the exercise in full of the balance of its over-allotment option, purchased 432,000 additional shares of the common stock for additional
gross proceeds of $ 2,155,680 from the sale of the Shares.
January
2022 Private Placement of Common Stock
On
December 31, 2021, after markets closed, a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) was circulated to, and
signatures were received from, certain institutional and accredited investors (the “December Investors”) in connection with
the sale in a private placement by the Company of 2,229,950 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “December Offering”).
On January 2, 2022, the Company delivered to December Investors a fully executed Purchase Agreement, which was dated December 31, 2021.
The purchase price for the common stock sold in the December Offering was $ 3.24 per share, the closing transaction price reported by
Nasdaq on December 31, 2021.
The
closing of the December Offering occurred on January 5, 2022. The Company received gross proceeds from the sale of the common stock in
the December Offering of approximately $ 7.2 million.
December
2022 Private Placement of Common Stock
On
December 9, 2022, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain institutional and accredited investors for the
sale by the Company in a private placement of 4,575,429 units, each unit comprising (i) one share of the Company’s common stock,
and (ii) one warrant to purchase one share of common stock. The offering price of the units was $ 1.75 per unit. The warrants included
in the units are exercisable at a price of $ 1.75 per share and expire three years from the date of issuance.
On
December 9, 2022, the Company entered into placement agency agreement (the “Placement Agency Agreement”) with Dawson James
Securities, Inc. (“Dawson James”). The Company has agreed to pay Dawson James a placement agent fee of 6 % of the gross proceeds
received in the private placement and 3 % on all proceeds from officers and directors including any directed orders from the Company.
As additional compensation under the Placement Agency Agreement, the Company will issue Dawson James warrants (the “Placement Agent
Warrants”) to purchase up to 549,051 shares of Common Stock with an exercise price of $ 1.75 per share. The Placement Agent Warrants
are exercisable at any time and from time to time during the three-year period commencing on the six-month anniversary of the closing
date. The Company reimbursed Dawson for up to $ 100,000 for its legal and due diligence expenses.
The
offering closed on December 14, 2022, and the Company received gross proceeds of approximately $ 8.0 million for the units.
As
of the date of this report, the Company’s existing cash resources and existing borrowing availability are sufficient to support
planned operations for the next 12 months. As a result, management believes that the Company’s existing financial resources are
sufficient to continue operating activities for at least one year past the issuance date of the financial statements.
Use
of Estimates
In
preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts
of assets and liabilities as of the date of the statements of financial condition, and revenues and expenses for the years then ended.
Actual results may differ significantly from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to,
the assumptions used to calculate stock-based compensation, and common stock and options issued for services, receivables, the useful lives of property and equipment, and intangible
assets, the estimate of the fair value of the lease liability and related right of use assets and the estimates of the valuation allowance
on deferred tax assets.
Reclassification
Certain
prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on
the reported results of operations.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. The
Company places its cash with a high credit quality financial institution. The Company’s accounts at this institution are insured
by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $ 250,000 .
All cash amounts in excess of $ 250,000 ,
$ 18,290,725 , are
unsecured at December 31, 2022. To reduce its risk associated with the failure of such financial institution, the Company evaluates at least annually
the rating of the financial institution in which it holds deposits.

Accounts
Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
The
Company has a policy of reserving for questionable accounts based on its best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its
existing accounts receivable. The Company periodically reviews its accounts receivable to determine whether an allowance is necessary
based on an analysis of past due accounts and other factors that may indicate that the realization of an account may be in doubt. Account
balances deemed to be uncollectible are offset against sales and relieved from accounts receivable, after all means of collection have
been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. As of December 31, 2022, and 2021, there is an allowance for doubtful
accounts of $ 0 and $ 0 , respectively.
Inventories
Inventories
are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, using the first-in first-out cost method. The Company assesses the valuation
of its inventories and reduces the carrying value of those inventories that are obsolete or in excess of the Company’s forecasted
usage to their estimated net realizable value. The Company estimates the net realizable value of such inventories based on analysis and
assumptions including, but not limited to, historical usage, expected future demand and market requirements. A change to the carrying
value of inventories is recorded to cost of goods sold.
Prepaid
Expenses
Prepaid
expenses current and long term amounted to $ 45,679 and $ 49,078 , respectively for the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $ 97,068
and $ 49,867 for the year ended December 31, 2021. Prepaid expenses include prepayments in cash for accounting fees, prepayments in
equity instruments, which are being amortized over the terms of their respective agreements, as well as cost associated with certain
contract liabilities. The current portion consists of costs paid for future services which will occur within a year.
Investments
The
Company applies the equity method of accounting to investments when it has significant influence, but not controlling interest, in the
investee. Judgment regarding the level of influence over each equity method investment includes considering key factors such as ownership
interest, representation on the board of directors, participation in policy-making decisions and material intercompany transactions.
The carrying value of our equity method investment is reported as “equity method investment” on the consolidated
balance sheets. The Company’s equity method investment is reported at cost and adjusted each period for the Company’s share
of the investee’s income or loss and dividend paid, if any. The Company’s proportionate share of the net loss resulting from
these investments is reported under the line item captioned “equity in net loss of affiliate” in the consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Note 7 contains additional information on the equity method investment.
The
Company assesses investments for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an investment
may not be recoverable. Management reviewed the underlying net assets of the investee as of December 31, 2022 and determined that the
Company’s proportionate economic interest in the investee indicate that the investments were not impaired.
Foreign
Currency Translation
The
Company’s reporting currency is U.S. Dollars. The accounts of one of the Company’s subsidiaries, GTC, is maintained using
the appropriate local currency, Great British Pound, as the functional currency. All assets and liabilities are translated into U.S.
Dollars at balance sheet date, shareholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and revenue and expense accounts are translated
at the average exchange rate for the year or the reporting period. The translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of
stockholders’ equity, captioned as accumulated other comprehensive (loss) gain. Transaction gains and losses arising from exchange
rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the statements of operations.
The
relevant translation rates are as follows: for the year ended December 31, 2022, closing rate at 1.2098 US$: GBP, yearly average rate
at 1.2369 US$: GBP, for the year ended December 31, 2021 closing rate at 1.353372 US$: GBP, yearly average rate at 1.375083 US$: GBP.

Revenue
Recognition and Unearned Revenue
The
Company recognizes revenue from satellite services when earned, as services are rendered or delivered to customers. Equipment sales revenue
is recognized when the equipment is delivered to and accepted by the customer. Only equipment sales are subject to warranty. Historically,
the Company has not incurred significant expenses for warranties. Equipment sales which have been prepaid, before the goods are shipped
are recorded as contract liabilities and once shipped is recognized as revenue. The Company also records as contract liabilities, certain
annual plans for airtime, which are paid in advance. Once airtime services are incurred, they are recognized as revenue. Unbilled revenue
is recognized for airtime plans whereby the customer is invoiced for its data usage the following month after services are incurred.
The
Company’s customers generally purchase a combination of our products and services as part of a multiple element arrangement. The
Company’s assessment of which revenue recognition guidance is appropriate to account for each element in an arrangement can involve
significant judgment. This assessment has a significant impact on the amount and timing of revenue recognition.
The
Company recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration
which we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that the Company
determines are within the scope of ASC 606, we perform the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (ii) identify
the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance
obligations in the contract; and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy a performance obligation. The five-step model is applied
to contracts when it is probable that we will collect the consideration we are entitled to in exchange for the goods or services transferred
to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, we assess the goods or services
promised within each contract and determine those that are performance obligations and assess whether each promised good or service is
distinct. We then recognize revenue in the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation
when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.
In
accordance with ASU No. 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedient ,
which is to (1) clarify the objective of the collectability criterion for applying paragraph 606-10-25-7; (2) permit an entity to exclude
amounts collected from customers for all sales (and other similar) taxes from the transaction price; (3) specify that the measurement
date for noncash consideration is contract inception; (4) provide a practical expedient that permits an entity to reflect the aggregate
effect of all modifications that occur before the beginning of the earliest period presented when identifying the satisfied and unsatisfied
performance obligations, determining the transaction price, and allocating the transaction price to the satisfied and unsatisfied performance
obligations; (5) clarify that a completed contract for purposes of transition is a contract for which all (or substantially all) of the
revenue was recognized under legacy GAAP before the date of initial application, and (6) clarify that an entity that retrospectively
applies the guidance in Topic 606 to each prior reporting period is not required to disclose the effect of the accounting change for
the period of adoption. The amendments of this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods
within those fiscal years. There was no impact as a result of adopting this ASU on the financial statements and related disclosures.
Based on the terms and conditions of the product arrangements, the Company believes that its products and services can be accounted for
separately as its products and services have value to the Company’s customers on a stand-alone basis. When a transaction involves
more than one product or service, revenue is allocated to each deliverable based on its relative fair value; otherwise, revenue is recognized
as products are delivered or as services are provided over the term of the customer contract.
Contract
liabilities are shown separately in the consolidated balance sheets as current liabilities. At December 31, 2022, we had contract liabilities
of $ 36,415 . At December 31, 2021, we had contract liabilities of $ 36,765 .

Cost
of Product Sales and Services
Cost
of sales consists primarily of materials, airtime and overhead costs incurred internally and amounts incurred to contract manufacturers
to produce our products, airtime and other implementation costs incurred to install our products and train customer personnel, and customer
service and third-party original equipment manufacturer costs to provide continuing support to our customers. There are certain costs
which are deferred and recorded as prepaids, until such revenue is recognized. Refer to revenue recognition above as to what constitutes
deferred revenue.
Shipping
and handling costs are included as a component of costs of product sales in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations
because the Company includes in revenue the related costs that the Company bills its customers.
Advertising
Costs
incurred for producing and communicating advertising for the Company are charged to operations as incurred. Advertising expense was $ 92,549
and $ 61,922 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
Intangible
Assets
Intangible
assets include customer contracts purchased and recorded based on the cost to acquire them. These assets are amortized over 10 years.
Useful lives of intangible assets are periodically evaluated for reasonableness and the assets are tested for impairment whenever events
or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may no longer be recoverable.
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment are carried at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is based on the estimated service lives of the
depreciable assets and is calculated using the straight-line method. Expenditures that increase the value or productive capacity of assets
are capitalized. Fully depreciated assets are retained in the property and equipment, and accumulated depreciation accounts until they
are removed from service. When property and equipment are retired, sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset’s carrying amount and
related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in operations. Repairs and maintenance
are expensed as incurred.

estimated useful lives of property and equipment are generally as follows:

Depreciation
expense for the years ended December 31, 2022, and 2021 was $ 465,059 and $ 292,102 , respectively.
Impairment
of Long-lived Assets
The
Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the
assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted
future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s
estimated fair value and its book value. The Company did not consider it necessary to record any impairment charges during the years
ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Derivatives
are required to be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. These derivatives, including embedded derivatives in the Company’s
structured borrowings, are separately valued and accounted for on the Company’s balance sheet. Fair values for exchange traded
securities and derivatives are based on quoted market prices. Where market prices are not readily available, fair values are determined
using market-based pricing models incorporating readily observable market data and requiring judgment and estimates.
The
Company did not identify any other assets or liabilities that are required
to be presented on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value in accordance with the accounting guidance. The carrying amounts reported
in the balance sheet for cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and notes payable approximate their estimated fair market values based
on the short-term maturity of the instruments.
Stock-based
Compensation
Stock-based
compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the
consolidated financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments
over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period).
The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date
fair value of the award.

NOTE
1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
In June
2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation. (Topic 718). This update is intended to reduce cost and complexity
and to improve financial reporting for share-based payments issued to non-employees (for example, service providers, external legal counsel,
suppliers, etc.). The ADU expands the scope of ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, which currently only includes share-based payments
issued to employees, also includes share-based payments issued to non-employees for goods and services. Consequently, the accounting for
share-based payment to non-employees and employees will be substantially aligned. This standard will be effective for the financial statements
issues by public companies for the annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption of the standard is permitted.
The standard will be applied in a retrospective approach for each period presented. Management adopted this standard on January 1, 2019.
The Company
estimated the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option-pricing formula. This fair value is then amortized on
a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. The Company’s determination
of the fair value using the option-pricing model is affected by the stock price as well as assumptions regarding the number of highly
subjective variables.
Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provision of ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASC 740-10”)
which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach
require the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between
the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets
for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized.
The
Company follows the provision of ASC 740-10 related to Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions. When tax returns are filed, there
may be uncertainty about the merits of positions taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance
with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which,
based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination,
including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions.
Tax
positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than
50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefit associated with
tax positions taken that exceed the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits
in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon
examination.
The
Company believes its tax positions are all more likely than not to be upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded
a liability for uncertain tax benefits.
The
Company has adopted ASC 740-10-25, “Definition of Settlement,” which provides guidance on how an entity should determine
whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits and provides that a
tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion and examination by a taxing authority without being legally extinguished.
For tax positions considered effectively settled, an entity would recognize the full amount of tax benefit, even if the tax position
is not considered more likely than not to be sustained based solely on the basis of its technical merits and the statute of limitations
remains open. The federal and state income tax returns of the Company are subject to examination by the IRS and state taxing authorities,
generally for three years after they are filed.
Leases
Effective
January 1, 2019, 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.

NOTE
1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
In
calculating the right of use asset and lease liability, the Company has elected to combine lease and non-lease components. 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.
Research
and Development
The
Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 730-10, Research
and Development (“ASC 730-10”). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred.
Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and development costs are expensed
when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved. Company-sponsored research and development costs
related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, there
were no expenditures on research and development.
Accumulated
Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive
income (loss) is comprised of net income (loss) and all changes to the statements of stockholders’ equity. For the Company, comprehensive
income (loss) for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 included net income (loss) and unrealized income (losses) from foreign currency translation adjustments.
Earnings
per Common Share
Net
income (loss) per common share is calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 260: Earnings per Share (“ASC 260”). Basic income
(loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during
the period. The computation of diluted net loss per share does not include dilutive common stock equivalents in the weighted average
shares outstanding as they would be anti-dilutive. In periods where the Company has a net loss, all dilutive securities are excluded.

Related
Party Transactions
A
party is considered to be related to the Company if the party directly or indirectly or through one or more intermediaries, controls,
is controlled by, or is under common control with the Company. Related parties also include principal owners of the Company, its management,
members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may
deal if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to an extent that one of
the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing its own separate interests. A party which can significantly influence
the management or operating policies of the transacting parties or if it has an ownership interest in one of the transacting parties
and can significantly influence the other to an extent that one or more of the transacting parties might be prevented from fully pursuing
its own separate interests is also a related party, (see Note 17).
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting
Pronouncements Recently Adopted
In
May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic
470-50), Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity
(Subtopic 815-40). ASU 2021-04 clarifies and reduces diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding
equity-classified written call options (for example, warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. The ASU
provides guidance to clarify whether an issuer should account for a modification or an exchange of a freestanding equity-classified written
call option that remains equity classified after modification or exchange as (1) an adjustment to equity and, if so, the related earnings
per share effects, if any, or (2) an expense and, if so, the manner and pattern of recognition. ASU 2021-04 is effective for annual beginning
after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim
period. The Company adopted the statement on its effective date and it had no impact on the Company’s financial results for the
year ended December 31, 2022.
In
October 2021, the FASB issued guidance which requires companies to apply Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to recognize
and measure contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers acquired in a business combination. Public entities
must adopt the new guidance for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early
adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact and timing of adoption of this guidance.
Any
new accounting standards, not disclosed above, that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future
date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

7 – EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENT IN PROGRESSIVE CARE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Progressive
Care, Inc. (a publicly traded company) is a personalized healthcare services and technology company that provides prescription pharmaceuticals
and risk and data management services to healthcare organization and providers. On August 30, 2022 the Company entered into a Securities
Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Progressive Care, Inc. (“Progressive”), which subsequently closed on September
2, 2022, pursuant to which the Company purchased 3,000 newly issued units of securities from Progressive at a price per unit of $ 2,000 ,
for an aggregate purchase price of $ 6,000,000 . Each unit consists of one share of Progressive Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series
B Preferred Stock”) and one warrant to purchase a share of Progressive Series B Preferred Stock (“Warrants”). Each
share of Series B Preferred Stock will vote as a class with the common stock of Progressive, and will have 500 Progressive votes per
share, and each share of Series B Preferred Stock will be convertible into 500 shares of Progressive’s common stock. The Warrants
are exercisable at a price of $ 2,000 per share of Series B Preferred Stock have a five-year term, and are immediately exercisable, in
whole or in part, and contain cashless exercise provisions. The Company determined the Series B Preferred Stock is in-substance common
stock because the Series B Preferred Stock has similar risk and reward characteristics to common stock.
Pursuant
to the SPA, NextPlat’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Charles M. Fernandez and board member, Rodney Barreto, were appointed
to Progressive’s Board of Directors as Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors and Vice Chairman, respectively. On November
11, 2022, the Progressive Care board of directors elected Mr. Fernandez to serve as the Chief Executive Officer of Progressive Care.
In
addition, on September 2, 2022, NextPlat, entered into a Confidential Purchase and Release Agreement (the “NPA”) with a third-party
lender to Progressive pursuant to which NextPlat agreed to purchase $ 1,000,000 of Progressive’s principal convertible debt from
the third-party (the “Note Purchase”) and was issued 45,652 of Progressive common stock. NextPlat paid an aggregate of $ 1,000,000
for the Note Purchase and common stock. The convertible note receivable has a principal balance of $ 1,213,429 , carries a simple interest
rate of 5 %, is convertible at $ 4.00 per share of common stock, and matures on August 31, 2027 .
As
a result of the SPA and related transactions, the Company paid an aggregate of $ 7,000,000 for an economic and voting interest in Progressive
of 32.47 %. Subsequent to September 2, 2022, the Company’s ownership interest decreased to 31.89 %. As of December 31, 2022, the
board seats, combined with the Company’s ownership interest of 33.47 % provide the Company with significant influence over Progressive,
but not a controlling interest. Since Progressive does not depend on the Company for continuing financial support to maintain operations
as of December 31, 2022, the Company has determined that Progressive is not a variable interest entity, and therefore, the Company is
not required to determine the primary beneficiary of Progressive for potential consolidation. Based on quoted market prices, the market
value of the Company’s ownership interest in Progressive was approximately $ 10.05 million at December 31, 2022.
The
Company combined its investment in the Series B Preferred Stock, common stock, warrants, and convertible note receivable into one line
item on the consolidated balance sheets as “Equity method investment”. The Company reported its aggregate earnings
from its investment as one line item on the consolidated statement of operations as “Equity in net loss of affiliate”.

The
Company accounts for income taxes under ASC Topic 740: Income Taxes which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities
for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, and for the
expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax losses and tax credit carry forwards. ASC Topic 740 additionally requires the establishment
of a valuation allowance to reflect the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets.
The
tax reform bill that Congress voted to approve December 20, 2017, also known as the “Tax Cuts and Jobs Act”, made sweeping
modifications to the Internal Revenue Code, including a much lower corporate tax rate, changes to credits and deductions, and a move
to a territorial system for corporations that have overseas earnings. The act replaced the prior-law graduated corporate tax rate, which
taxed income over $ 10.0 million at 35 %, with a flat rate of 21 %. Due to the continuing loss position of the Company, such changes should
not be material.
For
U.S. purposes, the Company has not completed its evaluation of NOL utilization limitations under Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the
“Code”) Section 382, change of ownership rules. If the Company has had a change in ownership, the NOL’s would be limited
as to the amount that could be utilized each year, or possibly eliminated, based on the Code. The Company has also, not completed its
review of NOL’s pertaining to years the Company was known as “Silver Horn Mining Ltd.” and “Great West Resources,
Inc.”, which may not be available due to IRC Section 382 and because of a change in business line that may eliminate NOL’s
associated with ““Silver Horn Mining Ltd.” and “Great West Resources, Inc.” The company has also not reviewed
the impact relating to “Recent Events” for its IRC Section 382 possible NOL’s limitation.

16 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
COVID-19
In
March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a global pandemic prompting
government-imposed quarantines, suspension of in-person attendance of academic programs, and cessation of certain travel and business
closures. The United States has entered a recession as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which may prolong and exacerbate the negative
impact on us. Although we expect the availability of vaccines and various treatments with respect to COVID-19 to have an overall positive
impact on business conditions in the aggregate over time, the exact timing of these positive developments is uncertain. In December 2020,
the United States began distributing two vaccines that, in addition to other vaccines under development, are expected to help to reduce
the spread of the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 once they are widely distributed. If the vaccines prove less effective than currently
understood by the scientific community and the United States Food and Drug Administration, or if there are problems with the acceptance,
availability, timing or other difficulties with widely distributing the vaccines, the pandemic may last longer, and could continue to
impact our business for longer, than we currently expect. In response to COVID-19, governmental authorities have implemented numerous
measures to try to contain the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, prohibitions on group events and gatherings, shutdowns of
certain businesses, curfews, shelter in place orders and recommendations to practice social distancing. Although many governmental measures
have had specific expiration dates, some of those measures have already been extended more than once, and there is considerable uncertainty
regarding the duration of such measures and the implementation of any potential future measures, especially if cases increase again across
the United States, with the potential for additional challenges resulting from the emergence of new variants of COVID-19, some of which
may be more transmissible than the initial strain. Such measures have impacted, and may continue to affect, our workforce, operations,
suppliers and customers. We reduced the size of our workforce following the onset of COVID-19 and may need to take additional actions
to further reduce the size of our workforce in the future; such reductions incur costs, and we can provide no assurance that we will
be able to rehire our workforce in the event our business experiences a subsequent recovery. We took steps to curtail our operating expenses
and conserve cash. We may elect or need to take additional remedial measures in the future as the information available to us continues
to develop, including with respect to our workforce, relationships with our third-party vendors, and our customers. There is no certainty
that the remedial measures we have implemented to date, or any additional remedial steps we may take in the future, will be sufficient
to mitigate the risks posed by COVID-19. Further, such measures could potentially materially adversely affect our business, financial
condition and results of operations and create additional risks for us. Any escalation of COVID-19 cases across many of the markets we
serve could have a negative impact on us. Specifically, we could be adversely impacted by limitations on our employees to perform their
work due to illness caused by the pandemic or local, state, or federal orders requiring our stores to close or employees to remain at
home; limitation of carriers to deliver our product to customers; product shortages; limitations on the ability of our customers to conduct
their business and purchase our products and services; and limitations on the ability of our customers to pay us in a timely manner.
These events could have a material, adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and liquidity.

NOTE
16 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)
The
ultimate magnitude of COVID-19, including the full extent of the material negative impact on our financial and operational results, will
depend on future developments. The resumption of our normal business operations may be delayed or constrained by lingering effects of
COVID-19 on our customers, suppliers and/or third-party service providers. Furthermore, the extent to which our mitigation efforts are
successful, if at all, is not currently ascertainable. Due to the daily evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic and the responses to curb
its spread, we cannot predict the full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and results of operations, but our business, financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows have already been materially adversely impacted, and we anticipate they will continue
to be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and its negative effects on global economic conditions. Any recovery from the COVID-19
pandemic and related economic impact may also be slowed or reversed by a variety of factors, such as any increase in COVID-19 infections.
Even after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided, we may continue to experience adverse impacts to our business as a result of its national
and, to some extent, global economic impact, including the current recession and any recession that may occur in the future.
The
success of our business depends on our global operations, including our supply chain and consumer demand, among other things. As a result
of COVID-19, we have experienced shortages in inventory due to manufacturing issues, a reduction in the volume of sales in some parts
of our business, such as rental sales and direct website sales, and a reduction in personnel due to lockdown related issues. Our results
of operations for years ended December 31, 2022 and for the year ended December 31, 2021, reflect this impact; however, we expect that
this trend may continue, and the full extent of the impact is unknown. In recent months, some governmental agencies in the US and Europe,
where we produce the largest percentage of our sales, have lifted certain restrictions. However, if customer demand continues to be low,
our future equipment sales, subscriber activations and sales margin will be impacted.

is that Mr. Seifert is not owed any additional consideration or compensation relating to his prior service with the Company or arising
under any employment agreement. The Company believes it has adequate defenses to any such claims. The Company has determined to initiate
litigation against Mr. Seifert asserting a number of claims including, but not limited to, rescission of the employment agreement, fraud
in the inducement in connection with the execution of the employment agreement, and breach of the fiduciary duties of good faith and loyalty.
The Company does not expect to seek substantial monetary relief in the litigation.
From time to time,
the Company may become involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. The
Company is not currently involved in any pending legal proceeding or litigation, and, to the best of our knowledge, no governmental authority
is contemplating any proceeding to which the Company is a party or to which any of the Company’s properties is subject, which would
reasonably be likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and operating results.

17 - LEASE OBLIGATIONS
The Company has entered into a
number of lease arrangements under which the Company is the lessee. These leases are classified as operating leases. In addition, the
Company has elected the short-term lease practical expedient in ASC Topic 842 related to real estate leases with terms of one year. The
following is a summary of the Company’s lease arrangements.
Operating
Lease Agreements
On
December 2, 2021, the Company entered into a 62-month lease for 4,141 square feet of office space in Florida, for $ 186,345 annually.
The rent increases 3 % annually. The lease commenced upon occupancy on June 13, 2022, and will expire on August 31, 2027.
For
our facilities in Poole, England, we rent office and warehouse space of approximately 2,660 square feet for £ 30,000 annually or
approximately USD $ 37,107 , based on a yearly average exchange rate of 1.2369 GBP:USD. The Poole lease was renewed on October 6, 2022,
and will expire October 31, 2023. This renewal is not representative in the table future minimum lease payments, for the year ended December
31, 2022.
The
Florida lease does not require any contingent rental payments, impose any financial restrictions, or contain any residual value guarantees.
Variable expenses generally represent the Company’s share of the landlord’s operating expenses. The Company does not have
any leases classified as financing leases.
The
rate implicit to the Florida lease is not readily determinable, and we therefore use our incremental borrowing rate to determine the
present value of the lease payments. The weighted average incremental borrowing rate used to determine the initial value of right of
use (ROU) assets and lease liabilities during the year ended December 31, 2022 was 3.75 %. Right of use assets for operating leases are
periodically reduced by impairment losses. We use the long-lived assets impairment guidance in ASC Subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant,
and Equipment – Overall, to determine whether an ROU asset is impaired, and if so, the amount of the impairment loss to recognize.
As of December 31, 2022, we have not recognized any impairment losses for our ROU assets.
We
monitor for events or changes in circumstances that require a reassessment of one of our leases. When a reassessment results in the remeasurement
of a lease liability, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the corresponding ROU asset unless doing so would
reduce the carrying amount of the ROU asset to an amount less than zero. In that case, the amount of the adjustment that would result
in a negative ROU asset balance is recorded in profit or loss.
