Sunshine
Biopharma, Inc.
Notes to
Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
For the
Three Months Ended March 31, 2024 and 2023
Note
1 – Description of Business
The Company was incorporated under the name Mountain
West Business Solutions, Inc. on August 31, 2006, in the State of Colorado. Effective October 15, 2009, the Company acquired Sunshine
Biopharma, Inc. in a transaction classified as a reverse acquisition. Upon completion of the reverse acquisition transaction, the Company
changed its name to Sunshine Biopharma, Inc. and began operating as a pharmaceutical company.
Sunshine
Biopharma operates two wholly owned subsidiaries: (i) Nora Pharma Inc. (“Nora Pharma”), a Canadian corporation with a portfolio
of pharmaceutical products consisting of 52 generic prescription drugs on the market in Canada, and (ii) Sunshine Biopharma Canada Inc.
(“Sunshine Canada”), a Canadian corporation which develops and sells nonprescription over-the-counter (“OTC”)
products.
The
Company has determined that it has two reportable segments:
·
Prescription Generic Pharmaceuticals
(“Generic Pharmaceuticals”)
·
Nonprescription Over-The-Counter
Products (“OTC Products)
Through
March 31, 2024, sales from the Generic Pharmaceuticals segment represented approximately 97 % of total revenues of the Company while the
remaining approximately 3 % was generated from the sale of OTC Products. Based on these results, the Company deems segmentation reporting
to be immaterial at March 31, 2024.
The Company is not subject to material customer
concentration risks as it sells its products directly to pharmacies in several Canadian provinces. However, in Canada provincial governments
reimburse patients for their prescription drugs expenditures to various degrees under drug reimbursement programs, making generic drugs
prices highly dependent on governmental policies which may change over time. The most recent negotiations between the pan-Canadian Pharmaceutical
Alliance and the Canadian Generic Pharmaceutical Association have resulted in updated generic pricing for certain products which took
effect on October 1, 2023. The updated prices are valid for three years and the agreement may be extended for an additional two years.
On February 29, 2024, the Canadian federal government tabled new drug reimbursement legislation, a bill known as PharmaCare which, if
passed, would result in a single-payer program whereby the Canadian federal government would pay for the drugs sold in Canada rather than
the Provinces.
In
addition, the Company is engaged in the development of the following proprietary drugs:
·
Adva-27a,
a small chemotherapy molecule for treatment of pancreatic cancer (IND-enabling studies were paused on November 2, 2023 due to unfavorable
results)
·
K1.1 mRNA,
a lipid nano-particle (LNP) targeted for liver cancer
·
SBFM-PL4,
a protease inhibitor for treatment of Coronavirus infections

Note
2 – Basis of Presentation
The
unaudited financial statements of the Company for the three months periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial
information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the
information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete
financial statements. However, such information reflects all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments), which
are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations.
Results shown for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full fiscal year. The balance
sheet information as of December 31, 2023, was derived from the audited financial statements included in the Company's financial
statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 28, 2024. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with that report.
On April 17, 2024, the Company completed a 1-for-100
reverse split of its common stock (the “Reverse Split”). The share amounts, warrants, and related parameters specified in this report have been adjusted to
reflect the Reverse Split on a retroactive basis.
Note
3 – Underwritten Public Offering
On February 15, 2024, the Company completed an
underwritten public offering for gross proceeds of approximately $ 10 million, before deducting fees to the underwriter and other offering
expenses payable by the Company. The net proceeds received by the Company were $ 8,522,411 .
The
offering consisted of 714,286 Units, consisting of (i) 264,286 Common Units, with each Common Unit consisting of one share of common
stock, one-tenth of a Series A warrant to purchase one share of common stock (“Series A Warrant”) and two-tenths of a
Series B warrant to purchase one share of common stock (“Series B Warrant”), and (ii) 450,000 Pre-Funded Units, with
each Pre-Funded Unit consisting of one pre-funded warrant to purchase one share of common stock (“Pre-Funded Warrants”),
one-tenth of a Series A Warrant and two-tenths of a Series B Warrant. The public offering price was $14.00 per Common Unit and $13.9
per Pre-Funded Unit. The Pre-Funded Warrants have an exercise price of $0.10 per share. The Pre-Funded Warrants are immediately
exercisable and may be exercised at any time until exercised in full. The initial exercise price of each Series A Warrant is $210.00
per share of common stock or pursuant to an alternative cashless exercise option. Under the alternative cashless exercise provision,
which became effective following stockholder approval in March 2024, each Series A Warrant is exercisable on a cashless basis for
two shares of common stock. The Series A Warrants are exercisable immediately and expire 30 months after the initial issuance date.
The initial exercise price of each Series B Warrant is $238.00 per share of common stock. The Series B Warrants are exercisable
immediately and expire 60 months after the initial issuance date.
In addition (effective following the stockholder approval), the Series
A Warrants and Series B Warrants included a provision under which, following a reverse split of the common stock, the exercise price will
be adjusted to the lowest volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) for the five trading days immediately preceding and immediately
following the date of reverse stock split, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of the Series A Warrants or Series B Warrants
will be adjusted such that the aggregate exercise price of the Series A Warrants or Series B Warrants will remain unchanged. The Series
B Warrants do not include an alternate cashless exercise provision and can only be exercised for cash so long as the Company’s registration
statement for such warrants and underlying shares remains effective. As a result of the Reverse
Split, the exercise price of the Series A Warrants has been reduced to $ 1.026
and the number of Series A Warrants has been increased to 16,319,444 .
Also as a result of the Reverse Split, the exercise price of Series B Warrants was reduced to $ 1.026
and the number of Series B Warrants increased to 36,990,739 .
In
addition, the Company granted the underwriter, Aegis Capital Corp. ("Aegis"), a 45-day option to purchase up to an additional
15% of the total number of shares of common stock and/or Pre-Funded Warrants and/or Series A Warrants and/or Series B Warrants sold in
the offering, solely to cover overallotments, if any. On February 15, 2024, Aegis partially exercised its over-allotment option for a
total of 8,304 Series A Warrants and 16,607 Series B Warrants.
8
As
of March 31, 2024, all of the Pre-Funded Warrants, consisting of 450,000 warrants in total, have been exercised resulting in the Company
issuing 450,000 shares of common stock and receiving net proceed of $ 45,000 .
The following table sets forth the
outstanding warrants, as adjusted, issued in connection with this offering at March 31, 2024:

Note
7 – Capital Stock
The Company’s authorized capital is comprised
of 3,000,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $ 0.001 , and 30,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $ 0.10 par value. As of March 31,
2024, the Company had authorized 1,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock is non-convertible and non-redeemable.
It has a liquidation preference equal to the stated value of $0.10, relative to the common stock and gives the holder the
right to 1,000 votes per share. As of March 31, 2024, 130,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were outstanding and held by the Company’s
Chief Executive Officer.
On
February 17, 2022, the Company completed a public offering and received net proceeds of $ 6,833,071 from the offering. Pursuant to the
public offering, the Company issued and sold an aggregate of 18,824 shares of common stock and 41,022 warrants to purchase shares
of common stock (the “Tradeable Warrants”).
On
February 22, 2022, the Company redeemed 990,000
shares of Series B Preferred Stock from the CEO of the Company at a redemption price equal to the stated value of $0.10 per share.
The remaining 10,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock could not be voted pursuant to a warrant agent agreement relating to the
Tradeable Warrants (the “Warrant Agent Agreement”). On October 12, 2023, the Company held a special meeting of the
holders of the outstanding Tradeable Warrants in which the holders of the majority of the outstanding Tradeable Warrants approved an
amendment to the Warrant Agent Agreement to eliminate the provision that prohibited the Company’s CEO from exercising his
voting rights under the Series B Preferred Stock, as well as to lower the exercise price of the Tradeable Warrants from $222.00 to
$11.00.
The Company entered into the amendment to the Warrant Agent Agreement on October 18, 2023.
On
March 14, 2022, the Company completed a private placement and received net proceeds of $ 6,781,199 . In connection with this private placement,
the Company issued (i) 23,014 shares of its common stock together with investor warrants (“Investor Warrants”) to
purchase up to 23,014 shares of common stock, and (ii) 13,023 pre-funded warrants (“Pre-Funded Warrants”) with
each Pre-Funded Warrant exercisable for one share of common stock, together with Investor Warrants to purchase up to 130,225 shares
of common stock. Each share of common stock and accompanying Investor Warrant was sold together at a combined offering price of $222.00
and each Pre-Funded Warrant and accompanying Investor Warrant were sold together at a combined offering price of $221.9. The Pre-Funded
Warrants were immediately exercisable, at an exercise price of $0.1, and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-Funded
Warrants are exercised in full. The Investor Warrants have an exercise price of $222.00 per share (subject to adjustment as set forth in
the warrant), are exercisable upon issuance and will expire five years from the date of issuance.
On
April 28, 2022, the Company completed another private placement and received net proceeds of $ 16,752,915 .
In connection with this private placement, the Company issued (i) 24,728
shares of its common stock together with warrants (“April Warrants”) to purchase up to 49,456 shares of common
stock, and (ii) 23,900 pre-funded warrants (“Pre-Funded Warrants”) with each Pre-Funded Warrant exercisable for

Note
8 – Warrants
The
Company accounts for issued warrants either as a liability or equity in accordance with ASC 480-10 or ASC 815-40. Under ASC 480-10, warrants
are considered a liability if they are mandatorily redeemable and they require settlement in cash, other assets, or a variable number
of shares. If warrants do not meet liability classification under ASC 480-10, the Company considers the requirements of ASC 815-40 to
determine whether the warrants should be classified as a liability or as equity. Under ASC 815-40, contracts that may require settlement
for cash are liabilities, regardless of the probability of the occurrence of the triggering event. Liability-classified warrants are
measured at fair value on the issuance date and at the end of each reporting period. Any change in the fair value of the warrants after
the issuance date is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations as a gain or loss. If warrants do not require liability classification
under ASC 815-40, in order to conclude warrants should be classified as equity, the Company assesses whether the warrants are indexed
to its common stock and whether the warrants are classified as equity under ASC 815-40 or other applicable GAAP standard. Equity-classified
warrants are accounted for at fair value on the issuance date with no changes in fair value recognized after the issuance date.
In

10 – Lease
The Company has obligations as a lessee for office and warehouse space
with initial non-cancellable terms in excess of one year. The Company classified the lease as an operating lease. The lease contains a
renewal option for a period of five years. Because the Company is certain to exercise the renewal option, the optional period is included
in determining the lease term, and associated payments under the renewal option are included in the lease payments. The Company’s
lease does not include termination options for either party to the lease or restrictive financial or other covenants. Payments due under
the lease include fixed payments plus a variable payment. The Company’s lease requires it to make variable payments
for the Company’s proportionate share of building’s property taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance. These variable
lease payments are not included in lease payments used to determine lease liability and are recognized as variable costs when incurred.
Amounts reported on the balance sheet as of March 31, 2024 were as follows:
Schedule of lease information
Operating lease ROU asset
$ 600,248

Note
12 – Income Taxes
In calculating the provision for income taxes on
an interim basis, the Company uses an estimate of the annual effective tax rate based upon currently known facts and circumstances and
applies that rate to its year-to-date earnings or losses. The Company’s effective tax rate is based on expected income and statutory
tax rates and takes into consideration permanent differences between financial statement and tax return income applicable to the Company
in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. The effect of discrete items, such as changes in estimates, changes in rates
or tax status, and unusual or infrequently occurring events, is recognized in the interim period in which the discrete item occurs. The
accounting estimates used to compute the provision for income taxes may change as new events occur, additional information is obtained
or as the result of new judicial interpretations or regulatory or tax law changes.
The Company’s interim effective tax rate,
inclusive of discrete items, for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was 26.83 %.
The Company’s consolidated financial statements
contain various tax related entries the same being due to the operations of the two Canadian subsidiaries and are in compliance with Canadian
tax laws.
