Recent Developments
On October 17, 2019, we entered an Exclusive License Agreement with Quoin
Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Quoin”) pursuant to which we granted to Quoin a license to certain patents
for the development of products for commercial sale. In exchange for the license, Quoin agreed to pay to us a license fee of $1,000,000
(the “License Fee”) and a single digit royalty interest of all net sales on the licensed products subject to adjustment in
certain situations. The agreement also requires that Quoin make certain milestone payments to us upon achieving regulatory approval milestones
for certain drug products.
The agreement was subject to termination, if among other things, 50% of
the license fee is not paid by December 31, 2019 and if the full License Fee is not paid by March 31, 2020. No payments were made by Quoin
and the agreement was terminated. Both Parties subsequently determined that they continue to see the value in a partnership and therefore
on May 8, 2020 and again on July 31, 2020 the companies agreed to extend the Exclusive License Agreement under the same terms to expire
on December 31, 2020, and on January 27, 2021 the companies agreed to revise the milestone payments due under the agreement and to extend
the agreement indefinitely.
On June 14, 2021, the Company entered into an amendment to change the terms
of the license Fee as shown below.
As
partial consideration for the rights conveyed by Skinvisible under this Agreement, Licensee agrees to pay to Skinvisible a one-time,
non-refundable, non-creditable license issue fee of one million USD dollars (USO $1,000,000) (''License Fee''). To date, Licensee has
paid three hundred ninety-two thousand five hundred US dollars (USD $392,500) of this fee as part of the First Half Payment of the License
Fee. The balance due of the First Half Payment is one hundred seven thousand five hundred US dollars (USD $107,500) which was received
on July 7. A further payment of two hundred and fifty thousand dollars ($250,000) is due no later than ten (10) business days after receipt
by Licensee of additional funding from Altium Capital which coincides with the approval from the SEC on Quoin’s merger with a NASDAQ
listed company, which closed in October. The remaining balance of two hundred and fifty thousand dollars ($250,000) was still outstanding
as of December 31, 2021 .
Additionally,
the milestones in the initial agreement were changed as shown below:
(i)
Successful completion of Phase 2 testing: $0
(ii)
Successful completion of Phase 3 testing: $0
(iii)
Regulatory approval in either 1· the US or EU, whichever happens first: $5,000,000
Company
Overview
We,
through our wholly owned subsidiary Skinvisible Pharmaceuticals Inc., are a pharmaceutical research and development (“R&D”)
company that has developed and patented an innovative polymer delivery system, Invisicare® and formulated over forty topical skin
products, which we out-license globally. We were incorporated in 1998, and target an estimated $80 billion global skincare and dermatology
market and a $30 billion global over-the-counter market as well as other healthcare / medical and consumer goods markets.
With
the research and development complete on forty products and numerous patents issued (technology and product patents), we are ready to
monetize our investment. Our business model will continue to be to out-license our patented prescription and over-the-counter (“OTC”)
products featuring Invisicare to established manufacturers and marketers of brands internationally and to maximize profits from the products
we have already out-licensed.
3
Table of Contents
The
opportunity for us to license our products continues to be a viable model as the need for pharmaceutical companies to access external
R&D companies for new products due to their own down-sizing or elimination of internal R&D departments. The demand for our products
is enhanced due to the granting of key US and international patents and the completed development of a number of unique products.
Our Flagship Product
Pivotal to our success is our patented polymer delivery system technology
Invisicare. Invisicare is a patented polymer delivery system that enhances the delivery of active ingredients for topically applied skin
care products. Its patented technology has a unique formula and process for combining active ingredients with a delivery system that extends
the duration of time the product remains on the skin and active.
Invisicare is specifically formulated to carry water insoluble active
and certain cationic active ingredients in water-based products without the use of alcohol, silicones, waxes, or other organic solvents.
Products utilizing Invisicare have the proven ability to bond active ingredients to the skin for up to four hours and longer. They are
non-occlusive and allow normal skin respiration and perspiration while moisturizing and protecting against exposure from a wide variety
of environmental irritants.
When topically applied, these formulated products adhere to the skin's
outer layers, forming a protective bond, resisting wash-off, and delivering targeted levels of therapeutic or cosmetic skincare agents
to the skin. They allow enhanced delivery performance for a variety of skincare agents resulting in improved efficacy, longer duration
of action, reduced irritation and lower dosage of active agent required. The "invisible" polymer compositions wear off as part
of the natural exfoliation process of the skin's outer layer cells.
The advantage of products formulated with Invisicare is (1) Invisicare’s
ability to bind active ingredients (the drug) to the skin, forming a protective bond on the skin, for extended periods of time; (2) Invisicare
can deliver targeted levels (high or low) of therapeutic or cosmetic ingredients to the skin in a controlled release; (3) Invisicare can
help to reduce the irritation of some active ingredients due to how it controls the slower release of that active ingredient; and (4)
Invisicare science proves that it provides a protective skin barrier which helps retain the natural moisture content of the skin, while
still allowing it to breathe. These benefits present an excellent opportunity for clear scientific advantages and marketing messages which
resonate with physicians and consumers.
The Market
The dermatology market is large, with over 80% of Americans affected by
some kind of skin condition in their lifetime. The worldwide market for dermatology products including prescription, OTC and cosmeceuticals
is estimated at $80 billion.
Company
History
We formed Skinvisible Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (“Skinvisible”),
in March 1998 and purchased the exclusive worldwide manufacturing and marketing rights for a polymer delivery system invention now called
Invisicare® from the inventor for $2 million. We have continued to develop the Invisicare technology and subsequent product development
resulting in over seven series of Invisicare and over forty unique, patented formulations offering distinctive benefits that differentiate
them significantly from other leading products in the marketplace.

What We Do
We have positioned ourselves in the $80 billion worldwide prescription
and over-the-counter dermatology and skincare market. We generate revenue by:
LICENSING : We develop topical prescription and over-the-counter
products enhanced with Invisicare to license to pharmaceutical and consumer goods companies around the world for an upfront fee and ongoing
royalties;
CO-DEVELOPMENT : We assist pharmaceutical clients in the early development
of the most optimal formulation, which they then take forward into clinical testing;
LIFE CYCLE MANAGEMENT : We provide cost-effective solutions to global
pharmaceutical companies by reformulating their products coming off patent with a new Invisicare patent and new product benefits and line
extensions. Pharmaceutical companies are under a lot of pressure to develop innovative strategies to counteract the revenue loss from
their drugs coming off patent.
Corporate Ownership
We are a publicly traded company under the symbol SKVI, quoted on the OTC
markets since February 1999 and currently trading on the OTCQB in the United States.
We carry on business primarily through our wholly owned subsidiaries: Skinvisible
Pharmaceuticals, Inc. a Nevada corporation.
Patents
We have patents granted in 11 countries, including comprehensive patents
on Invisicare, the foundation of all of our products; the United States, and internationally in Canada, Europe (4), China, India, Australia,
Hong Kong, and Korea. The Invisicare patents cover manufacturing, composition and use. Additionally, we have been granted product specific
patents in the United States for dermal barrier products, sunscreens (photostability of avobenzone), retinoids (stabilization), cationic
products and acne products.
Our value lies in our ability to continually generate new IP on dermatology
and medical products formulated with Invisicare. Patent approvals are sought (initially in the United States. and later internationally)
for all products developed. All patents with Invisicare are owned by us.
Trademarks
When developing new products using Invisicare, we file for both patent
and trademark protection. We have been granted trademarks in the U.S. and Canada for the following names:
- Skinvisible® w Invisicare® w JUSTCARE® w Kintari® w Skinbrella®
Revenue generation : We plan to achieve revenues from a combination
of four revenue streams including:
Research and development fees;
Upfront license fee;
Ongoing royalties based on product sales;
Licensees purchase Invisicare polymers from us. The polymers make up 6-8%
of each final product formulation for OTC and cosmetic formulas and less for prescription formulas.

Strategic Growth Opportunities
Our growth strategy is to:
1.
Generate revenue from private label products;
2.
Capitalize on the success of current licensees;
3.
Increase the value of our current pipeline; and
4.
Boost licensing revenues by securing additional licensees globally and develop a robust royalty revenue stream that will finance our future growth.
Private Label Products
Our sunscreen is a broad spectrum SPF 30 known as Skinbrella®. We completed
independent testing to validate our broad spectrum sunscreen claims according to the labeling guidelines of the FDA, which are designed
to help reduce the incidents of skin cancer in the U.S. Our claims are as follows:
Claim # 1 – Broad-Spectrum: According to the FDA, in order for a
sunscreen to be labeled “broad spectrum” it must prove it protects against both UVA and UVB rays by having an SPF (Sun Protection
Factor) of at least 15 and a critical wave length of at least 370 nm. Our sunscreen has surpassed both of these criteria, allowing our
broad spectrum sunscreen label to also state “prevents sunburn, skin cancer and aging due to the sun.”
Claim # 2 – Water-Resistant 80 Minutes: The FDA sunscreen water
resistant claim requires that a sunscreen must have the same SPF after being in water or sweating for 40 or 80 minutes. Our testing was
conducted at an independent laboratory specializing in sunscreen testing. The test involved human subjects that applied sunscreen to their
arm, followed by the immersion of the arm into a Jacuzzi for 80 minutes (10 minutes in / 10 minutes out). Our sunscreen successfully completed
this testing and is allowed to use “Water-resistant for 80 Minutes” on its sunscreen label, the longest length of time allowed
by the FDA.
Claim # 3 – Unique Patented Technology / Eight-Hour Photostability:
As previously announced, we were granted a patent from the United States Patent and Trademark Office entitled “Sunscreen Composition
with Enhanced UVA Absorber Stability and Methods”, which provides protection until November 2029. Skinvisible successfully formulated
a unique Invisicare® delivery system specifically for stabilizing avobenzone; the key sunscreen used in the USA. Data submitted to
the US patent office proved that our sunscreen provides a minimum of eight hours of photostability.
Additional Skinvisible Products
Sunless Tanning Products
We have developed a sunless tanning mousse / foam which uses a unique foam
with Invisicare®, developed specifically for its foaming properties. This adds to Skinvisible’s line of sunless tanning products
which includes sunless tanning lotions (light, medium and dark), pre-sun moisturizer and after-sun moisturizer along with sunless tanning
spray products for commercial use. The addition of a sunless tanning mousse enhances this line of products.
Sunscreen Products
We have developed 3 broad spectrum sunscreens, with SPF 15, 30 and 50 (the
highest SPF allowed by the FDA). All are formulated with Avobenzone, the only UVA sun filter allowed under the US FDA monograph. This
UVA/UVB sunscreen was granted a patent from the United States patent office in 2013. Avobenzone is known for breaking down in the sun
after only two hours – thus the requirement to reapply every 2 hours. Skinvisible’s patent was granted based on Invisicare's®
minimum 8 hour photo stability. For countries outside the United States, Skinvisible has additionally patented UVA/UVB sunscreens formulated
with Tinosorb S.
Capitalize On Current Licensees:
We continue to work diligently with our licensees to ensure they have a
smooth manufacturing process, ongoing R&D support and marketing feedback.

Ovation Science Inc.
On February 3, 2020, we entered into a License Agreement
with Ovation Science Inc. pursuant to which Skinvisible granted to Ovation Science Inc. a license for the manufacture and distribution
rights to its hand sanitizer product, DermSafe. In exchange for the license, Ovation Science Inc. agreed to pay to Skinvisible a single
digit royalty interest on all net sales on the licensed products subject to adjustment in certain situations plus
a license fee payable in year 3 of the agreement if it chooses to continue the license.
Women’s Choice Pharmaceuticals
Product: ProCort®, long lasting prescription hemorrhoid cream launched
in the United States August 2011.
Sales and Royalties: Skinvisible receives a royalty based on net sales
of ProCort. Women’s Choice has been successfully growing their sales of ProCort®
Increasing The Value of Skinvisible’s Pipeline:
We have a pipeline of over forty products which are available for licensing.
Testing is conducted in-house generating proof of concept including release of the active ingredient as well as long term shelf life (stability).
Additional studies conducted on specific products including skin sensitivity, toxicity and product efficacy are outsourced to FDA compliant
laboratories. These studies are critical in attracting potential licensees. Our clinical strategy is to find a partner for our prescription
product portfolio. This would allow for a partner to seek FDA approval using the 505b2 pathway for one or more of our products.
Competition
Market research indicates there is reasonably limited direct competition
for Invisicare and patented products in terms of performance capabilities for topically administered skin products. Many companies are
seeking unique delivery systems to enhance their portfolio and purchasing companies that have delivery technology.
Government Regulation
Cosmetic and Skin Care Regulation
Depending upon product claims and formulation, skin care products may be
regulated as cosmetics, drugs, devices, or combination cosmetics and drugs. The FDA has authority to regulate cosmetics marketed in the
United States under the FDCA and the Fair Packaging and Labeling Act (“FPLA”) and implementing regulations. The Federal Trade
Commission (the “FTC”) regulates the advertising of cosmetics under the FTCA.
The FDCA prohibits the marketing of adulterated and misbranded cosmetics.
Cosmetic ingredients must also comply with the FDA’s ingredient, quality, and labeling requirements and the FTC’s requirements
pertaining to truthful and non-misleading advertising. Cosmetic products and ingredients, with the exception of color additives, are not
required to have FDA premarket approval. Manufacturers of cosmetics are also not required to register their establishments, file data
on ingredients, or report cosmetic-related injuries to the FDA.
We will be responsible for substantiating the safety and product claims
of the cosmetic products and ingredients before marketing. The FDA or FTC may disagree with our characterization of one or more of the
skin care products as a cosmetic or the product claims. This could result in a variety of enforcement actions which could require the
reformulation or relabeling of our products, the submission of information in support of the product claims or the safety and effectiveness
of our products, or more punitive action, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business. If the FDA determines we
have failed to comply with applicable requirements under the FDCA or FPLA, it can impose a variety of enforcement actions from public
warning letters, injunctions, consent decrees, and civil penalties to seizure of our products, total or partial shutdown of our production,
and criminal prosecutions. If any of these events were to occur, it could materially adversely affect us. If the FTC determines we have
failed to substantiate our claims, it can pursue a variety of actions including disgorgement of profits, injunction from further violative
conduct, and consent decrees.

Table of Contents
Domestic State and Local Government Regulation
Some states and local governments in the United States regulate the labeling,
operation, sale, and distribution of our skin care products. To the extent additional state or local laws apply, we intend to comply with
them.
Foreign Government Regulation
In general, we will need to comply with the government regulations of each
individual country in which our products are to be distributed and sold. These regulations vary in complexity and can be as stringent,
and on occasion even more stringent, than FDA regulations in the United States. The level of complexity and stringency is not always precisely
understood today for each country, creating greater uncertainty for the international regulatory process. Furthermore, government regulations
can change with little to no notice and may result in up-regulation of our product(s), thereby creating a greater regulatory burden for
us. We have not yet thoroughly explored the applicable laws and regulations that we will need to comply with in foreign jurisdictions.
As a result it is possible that we may not be permitted to sell our products in foreign markets or expand our business into one or more
foreign jurisdictions.
Environmental Laws
We are not subject to any significant or material environmental regulation
in the normal operation of our business.
Employees
Currently, we have two employees, including our CEO Terry Howlett.
Subsidiaries
We conduct our operations through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Skinvisible
Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Risk Factors Associated with Covid 19
The extent to which the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) outbreak
impacts our business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which cannot be predicted.
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused us to modify our business practices (including
employee travel, employee work locations, and cancellation of physical participation in meetings, events and conferences), and we may
take further actions as may be required by government authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers
and business partners. There is no certainty that such measures will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by the virus or otherwise
be satisfactory to government authorities.
The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our business, results of operations
and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are uncertain and cannot be predicted, including, but not limited to:
§
the duration and scope of the pandemic;
§
governmental, business and individual actions taken in response to the pandemic and the impact of those actions on global economic activity;
§
the actions taken in response to economic disruption;
§
the impact of business disruptions;
§
the increase in business failures that we may utilize as industry partners and the customers we serve;
§
uncertainty as to the impact or staff availability during and post the pandemic; and
§
our ability to provide our services, including as a result of our employees or our customers and suppliers working remotely and/or closures of offices and facilities.
8
Table of Contents
Even after the coronavirus outbreak has subsided, we may continue to experience
materially adverse impacts to our business as a result of its global economic impact, including any recession that has occurred or may
occur in the future.
Risks Related to Our Financial Condition and our Business
We have outstanding secured and other debt that has matured and we
have not paid off, which could negatively affect our ability to continue as a going concern.
We
expect to experience high debt payments in the future as a result of our outstanding secured and unsecured liabilities. During the year
ended December 31, 2021, we entered to settlement agreements to settle various notes. As part of the settlement the principal balance
of the notes were settled for cash and all interest due through the date of settlement was forgiven. As of December 31, 2021, the Company
has recorded a gain on settlement of the debt of $109,688 associated with the settlement of $298,400 of principal. As of December 31,
2021, $443,600 of the outstanding secured notes payable are past due and in default and have been classified as current notes payable.
We also have $40,000
in outstanding unsecured notes that are past due. If we are unable to generate sufficient revenues and/or additional financing to service
this debt, there is a risk the lenders will call the notes, secure our assets, as to those applicable secured notes, and demand payment.
If this happens, we could go out of business.
Our investors may lose their entire investment because our financial
status creates a doubt whether we will continue as a going concern.
We do not have sufficient cash nor
do we have a significant source of revenues to cover our operational costs and allow us to continue as a going concern. The
Company anticipates generating revenues through the licensing of its core products and if that is not sufficient we may seek to raise
additional operating capital to implement our business plan in an offering of our common stock or debt. Our company's plan
specifies a minimum amount of $500,000 in additional operating capital to operate for the next twelve months. However, there can be no
assurance that the revenues generated or that such an offering will be successful. You may lose your entire investment
Our failure to raise additional
capital or generate cash flows necessary to expand our operations could reduce our ability to compete successfully and adversely affect
our results of operations.
We need to raise additional funds
to achieve our future strategic objectives, and we may not be able to obtain additional debt or equity financing on favorable terms, if
at all. If we engage in debt financing, we may be required to accept terms that restrict our ability to incur additional indebtedness,
force us to maintain specified liquidity or other ratios or restrict our ability to pay dividends or make acquisitions. If we need additional
capital and cannot raise it on acceptable terms, we may not be able to, among other things:
§
launch, develop and enhance
our existing products;
§
continue to expand our product
base, sales and/or marketing efforts;
§
hire, train and retain employees;
or
§
respond to competitive pressures
or unanticipated working capital requirements.
Our inability to do any of the foregoing
could reduce our ability to compete successfully and adversely affect our results of operations.

Table of Contents
If we are unable to generate revenues by implementing our business
plan, you will lose your entire investment in our company.
We have a history of losses from inception and we had an accumulated deficit
as of December 31, 2021 of $35,773,161. We have not been able to generate sufficient revenues from licensees, from the sale of our own
products or otherwise to cover our expenses. If we are unsuccessful in generating revenues, you could lose your entire investment.
If our products are not deemed desirable and suitable for purchase
and we cannot establish a customer base, we may not be able to generate sufficient revenues, which would result in a failure of the business
and a loss of any investment one makes in our company.
The acceptance of our products is critically important to our success.
We cannot be certain that the products that we will be offering will be appealing and as a result there may not be any demand for these
products and our sales could be limited and we may never realize any significant revenues. In addition, there are no assurances that if
we alter or change the products we offer in the future that the demand for these new products will develop and this could adversely affect
our business and any possible revenues.
If demand for the products that we plan to offer slows, then our
business would be materially affected.
Demand for products, which we intend to sell, depends on many factors,
including:
§
the economy, and in periods of rapidly declining economic conditions, customers may defer luxury purchases or may choose alternate products;
§
the competitive environment in the skin care sector may force us to reduce prices below our desired pricing level or increase promotional spending;
§
our ability to anticipate changes in consumer preferences and to meet customers’ needs for skin care products in a timely cost-effective manner;
§
our ability to maintain efficient, timely and cost-effective production and delivery of the products and services; and,
§
our ability to identify and respond successfully to emerging trends in the skin care and personal care industries.
For the long term, demand for the products we plan to offer may be affected
by:
§
the ability to establish, maintain and eventually grow market share in a competitive environment;
§
our ability to deliver our products in the markets we intend to service, changes in government regulations, currency fluctuations, natural disasters, pandemics and other factors beyond our control may increase the cost of items we purchase, create communication issues or render product delivery difficult which could have a material adverse effect on our sales and profitability; and
§
restrictions on access to North American markets and supplies.
All of these factors could result in immediate and longer term declines
in the demand for the products that we plan to offer, which could adversely affect our sales, cash flows and overall financial condition.

Table of Contents
Because we are new in the marketplace, we may not be able to compete
effectively and increase market share.
Our current and potential competitors may have longer operating histories,
significantly greater resources and name recognition, and a larger base of customers than we have. Our competitors may also be able to
adopt more aggressive pricing policies and devote greater resources to the development, marketing and sale of their products and services
than we can. To be competitive, we must continue to invest significant resources in sales and marketing. We may not have sufficient resources
to make these investments or to develop the technological advances necessary to be competitive, which in turn will cause our business
to suffer and restrict our profitability potential.
Because we rely on third parties to manufacture our products, we
are subject to factors outside of our control to meet our standards or timelines.
Our products are manufactured by three third-party manufacturing companies
on a purchase order basis. No contractual arrangement are currently in place, except for standard confidentiality agreements. We are dependent
on the timeliness and effectiveness of our third-part manufacturers’ efforts.
Failure or lack of reliability in the manufacture of our products is likely
to result in loss of business. Among other risks:
§
Our products may fail to provide the expected results;
§
We may experience limited availability of quality ingredients for manufacturing;
§
We may experience poor quality manufacturing;
§
Our products may have new competition from other companies attempting to duplicate our formulas; and
§
Our customers could experience results different from our test results.
Like other retailers, distributors and manufacturers of skin care
and personal care products, we face an inherent risk of exposure to product liability claims in the event that the use of the products
that we sell results in injury.
We may be subjected to various product liability claims, including claims
that the products we sell contain contaminants, are improperly labeled or include inadequate instructions as to use or inadequate warnings
concerning side effects and interactions with other substances. In addition, we may be forced to defend lawsuits. We cannot predict whether
product liability claims will be brought against us in the future or the effect of any resulting adverse publicity on the business. Moreover,
we may not have adequate resources in the event of a successful claim against us. The successful assertion of product liability claim
against us could result in potentially significant monetary damages. In addition, interactions of the products with other similar products,
prescription medicines and over-the-counter drugs have not been fully explored.
We may also be exposed to claims relating to product advertising or product
quality. People may purchase our products expecting certain physical results, unique to skin care and personal care products. If they
do not perceive expected results to occur, certain individuals or groups of individuals may seek monetary retribution.
11
Table of Contents
If our products become contaminated, our business could be seriously
harmed.
We have adopted various quality, environmental, health and safety standards.
However, our products may still not meet these standards or could otherwise become contaminated. A failure to meet these standards or
contamination could occur in our operations or those of our bottlers, manufacturers, distributors or suppliers. Such a failure or contamination
could result in expensive production interruptions, recalls and liability claims. Moreover, negative publicity could be generated even
from false, unfounded or nominal liability claims or limited recalls. Any of these failures or occurrences could negatively affect our
business and financial performance.
Our business may be adversely affected by unfavorable publicity within
the skin care markets.
Management believes that the skin care market and personal care markets
are significantly affected by national media attention. As with any retail provider, future scientific research or publicity may not be
favorable to the industry or to any particular product, and may not be consistent with earlier favorable research or publicity. Because
of our dependence on consumers’ perceptions, adverse publicity associated with illness or other adverse effects resulting from the
use of our products or any similar products distributed by other companies and future reports of research that are perceived as less favorable
or that question earlier research, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We are highly dependent upon consumers’ perceptions of the safety and quality of the products as well as similar products distributed
by other companies. Thus, the mere publication of reports asserting that skin care or personal care products may be harmful or questioning
their efficacy could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, regardless of whether
such reports are scientifically supported or whether the claimed harmful effects would be present at the dosages recommended for such
products.
As we intend to conduct international business transactions, we will
be exposed to local business risks in different countries, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results
of operations.
We intend to promote and sell our products internationally. Our international
operations will be subject to risks inherent in doing business in foreign countries, including, but not necessarily limited to:
§
new and different legal and regulatory requirements in local jurisdictions;
§
potentially adverse tax consequences, including imposition or increase of taxes on transactions or withholding and other taxes on remittances and other payments by subsidiaries;
§
risk of nationalization of private enterprises by foreign governments;
§
legal restrictions on doing business in or with certain nations, certain parties and/or certain products; and,
§
local economic, political and social conditions, including the possibility of hyperinflationary conditions and political instability.
We may not be successful in developing and implementing policies and strategies
to address the foregoing factors in a timely and effective manner in the locations where we will do business. Consequently, the occurrence
of one or more of the foregoing factors could have a material adverse effect on our base operations and upon our financial condition and
results of operations.
Since our products will be available over the Internet in foreign countries
and we plan to have customers residing in foreign countries, foreign jurisdictions may require us to qualify to do business in their country.
We will be required to comply with certain laws and regulations of each country in which we conduct business, including laws and regulations
currently in place or which may be enacted related to Internet services available to the residents of each country from online sites located
elsewhere.

Table of Contents
Because of the nature of our products, we may be subject to government
regulations or laws that increase our costs of operations or decrease our ability to generate income.
Any failure by us, or by any third party that may manufacture or market
our products, to comply with the law, including statutes and regulations administered by the FDA or other U.S. or foreign regulatory authorities,
could result in, among other things, warning letters, fines and other civil penalties, suspension of regulatory approvals and the resulting
requirement that we suspend sales of our products, refusal to approve pending applications or supplements to approved applications, export
or import restrictions, interruption of production, operating restrictions, closure of the facilities used by us or third parties to manufacture
our product candidates, injunctions or criminal prosecution. Any of the foregoing actions could have a material adverse effect on our
business.
Our commercial success depends significantly on our ability to develop
and commercialize our potential products without infringing the intellectual property rights of third parties.
Our commercial success will depend, in part, on operating our business
without infringing the patents or proprietary rights of third parties. Third parties that believe we are infringing on their rights could
bring actions against us claiming damages and seeking to enjoin the development, marketing and distribution of our products. If we become
involved in any litigation, it could consume a substantial portion of our resources, regardless of the outcome of the litigation. If any
of these actions are successful, we could be required to pay damages and/or to obtain a license to continue to develop or market our products,
in which case we may be required to pay substantial royalties. However, any such license may not be available on terms acceptable to us
or at all. Ultimately, we could be prevented from commercializing a product or forced to cease some aspect of our business operations
as a result of patent infringement claims, which would harm our business.
The implementation of our business plan relies on our ability to
manage growth. If we are not able to manage the growth, our business plan may not be successfully implemented.
We expect to expand our operations by increasing our sales and marketing
efforts, research and development activities, and escalating our services. The anticipated growth could place a significant strain on
our management, and operational and financial resources. Effective management of the anticipated growth shall require expanding our management
and financial controls, hiring additional appropriate personnel as required, and developing additional expertise by existing management
personnel. However, there can be no assurances that these or other measures we may implement shall effectively increase our capabilities
to manage such anticipated growth or to do so in a timely and cost-effective manner. Moreover, management of growth is especially challenging
for a company with a short revenue generating history and limited financial resources, and the failure to effectively manage growth could
have a material adverse effect on our operations.
Our success depends on continuing to hire and retain qualified personnel,
including our director and officers and our technical personnel. If we are not successful in attracting and retaining these personnel,
our business will suffer.
Our success depends substantially on the performance
of our management team and key personnel. Currently, we have three employees, including our CEO Terry Howlett. Due to the specialized
technical nature of our business, we are particularly dependent on our technical personnel. Our future success will depend on our ability
to attract, integrate, motivate and retain qualified technical, sales, operations, and managerial personnel, as well as our ability to
successfully implement a plan for management succession. Competition for qualified personnel in our business areas is intense, and we
may not be able to continue to attract and retain key personnel. In addition, if we lose the services of any of our management team or
key personnel and are not able to find suitable replacements in a timely manner, our business could be disrupted and we may incur increased
operating expenses.
If
we are unable to attract new distributors and customers, or if our existing
distributors and customers do not purchase additional products, the growth of our business
and cash flows will be adversely affected.
To increase
our revenues and cash flows, we must regularly add distributors and customers and sell additional
products to our existing distributors and customers. If we are unable to sell our products
to customers that have been referred to us, unable to generate sufficient sales leads through our marketing programs, or if our existing
or new distributors and customers do not perceive our products to be of sufficiently high
value and quality, we may not be able to increase sales and our operating results would be adversely affected. In addition, if we fail
to sell new products to existing distributors and customers or new distributors and
customers, our operating results will suffer, and our revenue growth, cash flows and profitability
may be materially and adversely affected.

Key management personnel may leave us, which could adversely affect
our ability to continue operations.
We are entirely dependent on the efforts of our management because of the
time and effort that they devote to us. They are in charge of overseeing all development strategies, supervising any/all future personnel,
and the implementation of our business plan. Their loss, or other key personnel in the future, could have a material adverse effect on
our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Risks Related to Our Securities
If a market for our common stock does not develop, shareholders may
be unable to sell their shares.
Our common stock is quoted under the symbol “SKVI” on the OTCQB
operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc, an electronic inter-dealer quotation medium for equity securities. We do not currently have an active
trading market. There can be no assurance that an active and liquid trading market will develop or, if developed, that it will be sustained.
Our securities are very thinly traded. Accordingly, it may be difficult
to sell shares of our common stock without significantly depressing the value of the stock. Unless we are successful in developing continued
investor interest in our stock, sales of our stock could continue to result in major fluctuations in the price of the stock.
Our common stock price may be volatile and could fluctuate widely
in price, which could result in substantial losses for investors.
The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and
could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:
technological innovations or new products and services by us or our competitors;
government regulation of our products and services;
the establishment of partnerships with other technology companies;
intellectual property disputes;
additions or departures of key personnel;
sales of our common stock
our ability to integrate operations, technology, products and services;
our ability to execute our business plan;
operating results below expectations;
loss of any strategic relationship;
industry developments;
economic and other external factors; and
period to period fluctuations in our financial results.
Because we have nominal revenues to date, you should consider any one of
these factors to be material. Our stock price may fluctuate widely as a result of any of the above.
In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced
significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations
may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
We have not paid cash dividends in the past and do not expect to
pay cash dividends in the future on our common stock. Any return on investment may be limited to the value of our common stock.
We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate
paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The payment of cash dividends on our common stock will depend on earnings, financial
condition and other business and economic factors at such time as the board of directors may consider relevant. If we do not pay cash
dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on your investment will only occur if its stock price appreciates.

Table of Contents
As a new investor, you will experience substantial dilution as a
result of future equity issuances.
In the event we are required to raise additional capital it may do so by
selling additional shares of common stock thereby diluting the shares and ownership interests of existing shareholders.
Because we are subject to the “Penny Stock” rules, the
level of trading activity in our stock may be reduced.
The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally
define "penny stock" to be any listed, trading equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share or an exercise
price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exemptions. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction
in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about
penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations
for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing
the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, the penny stock rules generally require that prior
to a transaction in a penny stock, the broker-dealer make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment
for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect
of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for a stock that becomes subject to the penny stock rules which may
increase the difficulty Purchasers may experience in attempting to liquidate such securities.
Provisions in the Nevada Revised Statutes and our Bylaws could make
it very difficult for an investor to bring any legal actions against our directors or officers for violations of their fiduciary duties
or could require us to pay any amounts incurred by our directors or officers in any such actions.
Members of our board of directors and our officers will have no liability
for breaches of their fiduciary duty of care as a director or officer, except in limited circumstances, pursuant to provisions in the
Nevada Revised Statutes and our Bylaws as authorized by the Nevada Revised Statutes. Specifically, Section 78.138 of the Nevada Revised
Statutes provides that a director or officer is not individually liable to the company or its shareholders or creditors for any damages
as a result of any act or failure to act in his or her capacity as a director or officer unless it is proven that (1) the director’s
or officer’s act or failure to act constituted a breach of his or her fiduciary duties as a director or officer and (2) his or her
breach of those duties involved intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law. This provision is intended to afford directors
and officers protection against and to limit their potential liability for monetary damages resulting from suits alleging a breach of
the duty of care by a director or officer. Accordingly, you may be unable to prevail in a legal action against our directors or officers
even if they have breached their fiduciary duty of care. In addition, our Bylaws allow us to indemnify our directors and officers from
and against any and all costs, charges and expenses resulting from their acting in such capacities with us. This means that if you were
able to enforce an action against our directors or officers, in all likelihood, we would be required to pay any expenses they incurred
in defending the lawsuit and any judgment or settlement they otherwise would be required to pay. Accordingly, our indemnification obligations
could divert needed financial resources and may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows,
and adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock.
Item 2. Properties
Currently, we do not own any or lease any real estate.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
We are not a party to any pending
legal proceeding. We are not aware of any pending legal proceeding to which any of our officers, directors, or any beneficial holders
of 5% or more of our voting securities are adverse to us or have a material interest adverse to us.

Item 5. Market for Registrant’s
Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
Market Information
Our common stock is quoted under the symbol “SKVI”
on the OTCQB operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc.
The OTCQB is a quotation service that displays real-time
quotes, last-sale prices, and volume information in over-the-counter equity securities. An OTCQB equity security generally is any equity
that is not listed or traded on a national securities exchange. Because we are quoted on the OTCQB, our securities may be less liquid,
receive less coverage by security analysts and news media, and generate lower prices than might otherwise be obtained if they were listed
on a national securities exchange.
Trading in stocks quoted on the OTCQB is often thin
and is characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors that may be unrelated to a company’s operations
or business prospects. We cannot assure you that there will be a market in the future for our common stock.
Penny Stock
The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection
with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a market price of less than $5.00, other than securities
registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information
with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer,
prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a
description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains
a description of the broker’s or dealer’s duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer
with respect to a violation of such duties or other requirements of the securities laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description
of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d)
contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document
or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type size
and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction
in a penny stock, the customer with (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its
salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating
to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statement showing the market value of each penny stock
held in the customer’s account.
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction
in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock
is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure
statement, a written agreement as to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.
These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading
activity for our common stock. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling our securities.
Holders of Our Common Stock
As of March 22, 2022, we had 4,539,843 shares of our common stock issued
and outstanding, held by 252 shareholders of record, other than those held in street name.

Dividends
There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that
prevent us from declaring dividends. The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where after giving
effect to the distribution of the dividend:
1.
we would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business, or;
2.
our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of shareholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution.
We have not declared any dividends and we do not plan to declare any dividends
in the foreseeable future.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements, other than purely historical information, including
estimates, projections, statements relating to our business plans, objectives, and expected operating results, and the assumptions upon
which those statements are based, are “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking statements generally are identified
by the words “believes,” “project,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,”
“intends,” “strategy,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “will
be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are based
on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties which may cause actual results to differ materially
from the forward-looking statements. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain.
Factors which could have a material adverse affect on our operations and future prospects on a consolidated basis include, but are not
limited to: changes in economic conditions, legislative/regulatory changes, availability of capital, interest rates, competition, and
generally accepted accounting principles. These risks and uncertainties should also be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements
and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.
COVID-19
The full extent of the impact of the
COVID-19 pandemic on our business, operations and financial results will depend on numerous evolving factors that we may not be able to
accurately predict at the present time. In an effort to contain COVID-19 or slow its spread, governments around the world have enacted
various measures, including orders to close all businesses not deemed “essential,” isolate residents to their homes or places
of residence, and practice social distancing when engaging in essential activities. We anticipate that these actions and the global health
crisis caused by COVID-19 will negatively impact business activity across the globe. While we have not observed any noticeable impact
on our revenue related to these conditions in the past fiscal year, or through the date of this filing, we cannot estimate the impact
COVID-19 will have in the future as business and consumer activity decelerates across the globe.
We will continue to actively monitor
the situation and may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required by federal, state, local or foreign authorities,
or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, partners and stockholders. It is not clear what the potential
effects any such alterations or modifications may have on our business, including the effects on our customers, partners, or vendors,
or on our financial results.
Results of Operations for the Years Ended December 31, 2021 and 2020
Revenues
Our revenue, which we combine from product sales, royalties on patent licenses
and license fees (product development fees), was $663,426 for the year ended December 31, 2021, an increase from $275,566 for the same
period ended December 31, 2020.
The revenue for 2021 was mainly from license fees with Quoin and the revenue
for 2020 was mainly from license fees with Ovation. We hope to generate more revenues from our licenses with Quoin and Ovation for the
rest of 2022.
Gross Profit
We had $3,300 in cost of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2021,
as compared with no cost of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2020, so our gross profit was $660,126, or 99% of sales for 2021
and $275,556, or 100% of sales for 2020, respectively.
We had some product sales resulting in a increased gross profit for 2021
as compared with 2020. Our gross profit increased in 2021 due to more revenues from our licenses with Quoin and Ovation, and we hope to
generate more revenues from our licenses with Quoin and Ovation for the rest of 2022, which do not have a cost of revenue component.

Operating Expenses
Operating expenses decreased to $472,046 for the year ended December 31,
2021 from $529,221 for the same period ended December 31, 2020.
Our operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021 consisted of
selling, general and administrative expenses of $454,107 and depreciation and amortization of $17,939. In comparison, our operating expenses
for the year ended December 31, 2020 consisted mainly of selling, general and administrative expenses of $497,199 and depreciation and
amortization of $32,022.
Other Expenses
We had other expenses of $1,260,833 for the year ended December 31, 2021,
as compared with other expenses of $1,193,947 for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Our other expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021 consisted of interest
expense and a loss on the changes in derivative liability, offset by a gain on the settlement of debt. Our other expenses for the year
ended December 31, 2020 consisted of interest expense.
Net Loss
We recorded a net loss of $1,072,753 for the year ended December 31, 2021,
as compared with a net loss of $1,447,612 for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Going concern – The accompanying financial statements have been prepared
on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
The Company has incurred cumulative net losses of $35,773,161 since its inception and requires capital for its contemplated operational
and marketing activities to take place. The Company’s ability to generate the necessary funds through licensing of its core products
or the ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of common stock or debt is unknown. The obtainment of additional
financing, the successful development of the Company’s contemplated plan of operations, and its transition, ultimately, to the attainment
of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. These factors, among others, raises substantial doubt about
the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments
that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.
As of December 31, 2021, we had total current assets of $74,244 and total
assets in the amount of $227,299. Our total current liabilities as of December 31, 2021 were $3,061,293. We had a working capital deficit
of $2,987,049 as of December 31, 2021, compared with a working capital deficit of $2,668,871 as of December 31, 2020.
Operating activities provided $374,605 in cash for the year ended December
31, 2021, as compared with $45,765 used for the year ended December 31, 2020. Our positive operating cash flow for 2021 was largely the
result of the amortization of debt discount, loss on derivative liabilities, and an increase in accrued interest, offset mainly by our
net loss for the year. For 2020, our net loss was the main component of our negative operating cash flow, offset mainly by an increase
in accrued interest, amortization of debt discount and an increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
We used cash of $20,864 and $16,767 in investing activities for the year
ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, for the purchase of fixed and intangible assets.
Cash flows used by financing activities during the year ended December
31, 2021 used $323,600, as compared with cash provided of $5,600 for the year ended December 31, 2020. Our negative financing cash flow
for the year ended December 31, 2021 resulted from the repayments of debt. Cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2020 consisted of
$26,900 in proceeds from related party debt offset by $21,300 paid on notes payable.

Table of Contents
The features of the debt instruments and payables concerning our financing
activities are detailed in the footnotes to our financial statements.
Based upon our current financial condition, we do not have sufficient cash
to operate our business at the current level for the next twelve months. We intend to fund operations through increased sales and debt
and/or equity financing arrangements, which may be insufficient to fund expenditures or other cash requirements. We plan to seek additional
financing in a private equity offering to secure funding for operations. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising
additional funding. If we are not able to secure additional funding, the implementation of our business plan will be impaired. There can
be no assurance that such additional financing will be available to us on acceptable terms or at all.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of December 31, 2021, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations
is based upon the accompanying financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America and are expressed in United States dollars. Preparing financial statements requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions
are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. We believe that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates
and assumptions involved with the following aspects of our financial statements is critical to an understanding of our financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible
Instruments and Contracts in an Entity; Own Equity (“ASU 2020-06”), as part of its overall simplification initiative to
reduce costs and complexity of applying accounting standards while maintaining or improving the usefulness of the information
provided to users of financial statements. Among other changes, the new guidance removes from GAAP separation models for convertible
debt that require the convertible debt to be separated into a debt and equity component, unless the conversion feature is required
to be bifurcated and accounted for as a derivative or the debt is issued at a substantial premium. As a result, after adopting the
guidance, entities will no longer separately present such embedded conversion features in equity, and will instead account for the
convertible debt wholly as debt. The new guidance also requires use of the “if-converted” method when calculating the
dilutive impact of convertible debt on earnings per share, which is consistent with the Company’s current accounting treatment
under the current guidance. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within those
fiscal years, with early adoption permitted, but only at the beginning of the fiscal year. The Company is
currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2020-06 will have on the Company’s financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING
FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Skinvisible,Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets
of Skinvisible, Inc. (the Company), which comprise the balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 and the related statements of Operations,
Changes in Stockholder’s Equity, and Cash Flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our
audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United Sates) (“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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
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 were 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. According we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess
the risks of material misstatement of the 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 financial statements.
Our audits also included evaluation of the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Emphasis of Matter Regarding
Going Concern
The accompanying financial
statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 3 to the financial statements,
the Company has not generated any revenues since inception and sustained a net loss of $1,072,753 for the year under audit and has accumulated
losses of $35,773,161. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.
Emphasis of Matters-Risks and Uncertainties
The Company is not able to predict the ultimate
impact that COVID -19 will have on its business. However, if the current economic conditions continue, the pandemic could have an
adverse impact on the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the geographical area in which the Company plans
to operate.
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2021.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC
ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of Skinvisible, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance
sheets of Skinvisible, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’
deficit, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively
referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each
of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been
prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company
has incurred cumulative net losses, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s
plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s 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 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 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 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 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 financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated
to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved
our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any
way our opinion on the 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.
Revenue Recognition
As described in Note 3, to the financial
statements, the Company recognizes revenue when title to the products are transferred to the customer and only when no further
contingencies or material performance obligations are warranted, and thereby have earned the right to receive reasonably assured
payments for products sold and delivered.
The principal considerations for our determination
that performing procedures relating to revenue recognition as a critical audit matter are the significant judgement by management
in determining the nature, timing and extent in the recognition of revenue, this in turn led to significant auditor judgement,
subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence.
Addressing the matter involved performing
procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the financial statements. These procedures
included: 1) evaluating the appropriateness and consistency of management’s methods and assumptions used in identification,
recognition, measurement and disclosure of revenue 2) reading contract source documents for each audit selection, including master
agreements, and other documents that were part of the agreement 3) testing management's identification and treatment of contract
terms 4) Assessing the terms in the customer agreement and evaluated the appropriateness of management's application of their
accounting policies, along with their use of estimates, in the determination of revenue recognition conclusions 5) testing the
mathematical accuracy of management's calculations of revenue and the associated timing of revenue recognized in the financial
statements.
Valuation of Intangible Assets
As disclosed in Note 6, to the financial
statements, intangible assets are tested for impairment at least annually and has determined that no impairment write-down is considered
necessary as of December 31, 2020. Auditing management’s impairment tests of intangible assets was complex and highly judgmental
due to the significant measurement uncertainty in determining the fair values of intangible assets.
The principal considerations for our determination
that performing procedures relating to the valuation of intangible assets as a critical audit matter are the significant judgement
by management in determining the nature, timing and extent of the carrying value of intangible assets, this in turn led to significant
auditor judgement, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence.
Addressing the matter included assessing
methodologies and testing the significant assumptions and underlying data used by the Company. We compared the significant assumptions
used in the Company’s plan for the next twelve months, as well as revenue and operating margins, to current industry and
economic trends, including the impact of COVID-19.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
AND HISTORY
Description of business – Skinvisible,
Inc., (referred to as the “Company”) is focused on the development, manufacture and sales of innovative topical, transdermal
and mucosal polymer-based delivery system technologies and formulations incorporating its patent-pending formula/process for combining
hydrophilic and hydrophobic polymer emulsions. The technologies and formulations have broad industry applications within the pharmaceutical,
over-the-counter, personal skincare and cosmetic arenas. Additionally, the Company’s non-dermatological formulations offer solutions
for a broad spectrum of markets including women’s health, pain management, and others. The Company maintains executive and sales
offices in Las Vegas, Nevada.
History – The Company was incorporated
in Nevada on March 6, 1998 , under the name of Microbial Solutions, Inc. The Company underwent a name change on February 26, 1999, when
it changed its name to Skinvisible, Inc. The Company’s subsidiary’s name of Manloe Labs, Inc. was also changed to Skinvisible
Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Skinvisible, Inc., together with its subsidiaries,
shall herein be collectively referred to as the “Company.”
2. BASIS
OF PRESENTATION AND GOING CONCERN
Basis of presentation
The accompanying
audited financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation
of financial position and the results of operations for the period presented have been reflected herein.
Going concern
The accompanying financial statements have
been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal
course of business. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company had a net loss of $ 1,072,753 .
The Company has also incurred cumulative net losses of $ 35,773,161
since its inception and requires capital for its contemplated operational and marketing activities to take place. These factors,
among others, raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date
of filing. Managements plans for the Company are to generate the necessary funding through licensing
of its core products and to seek additional debt and equity funding. However, the Company’s ability to generate the necessary
funds through licensing or raise additional capital through the future issuances of common stock or debt is unknown. The obtainment of
additional financing, the successful development of the Company’s contemplated plan of operations, and its transition, ultimately,
to the attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. The consolidated financial statements
of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.
The Company's operations and business have experienced
disruption due to the unprecedented conditions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic spreading throughout the United States and elsewhere.
The spread of COVID-19 has caused a change in the availability of our staff and support services. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there
has been uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. The Company is not aware of any specific event or circumstance
that would require an update to its estimates or judgments or a revision of the carrying value of its assets or liabilities as of the
date of issuance of this filing. These estimates could change in the future, as new events occur, or additional information is obtained.
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
POLICIES
This summary of significant accounting policies
of Skinvisible Inc. is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial
statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, who are responsible
for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.
F- 7
Table of Contents
Principles of consolidation
The consolidated
financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary Skinvisible Pharmaceuticals Inc. All significant intercompany
balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Use
of estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include estimates used
to review the Company’s impairments and estimations of long-lived assets, allowances for uncollectible accounts, inventory valuation,
and the valuations of non-cash capital stock issuances. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other
assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the
carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates
under different assumptions or conditions.
Cash
and cash equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments and short-term
instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Fair Value of financial instruments
The
carrying value of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and debt (See Notes 6 & 8) approximate their fair values because of
the short-term nature of these instruments. Management believes the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising
from these financial instruments. The carrying amount of the Company’s convertible debt is also stated at a fair value of $ 4,572,284
since the stated rate of interest approximates market rates.
Fair value is defined 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 market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value
maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy based on
three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable.
•
Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. These are typically obtained from real-time quotes for transactions in active exchange markets involving identical assets. The Company uses Level 1 measurements to value the transactions when it issues shares, warrants, options and debt with beneficial conversion features.
•
Level 2 Quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices included for identical or similar assets and liabilities that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. These are typically obtained from readily available pricing sources for comparable instruments. The Company did not rely on any Level 2 measurements for any of its transactions in the periods included in these financial statements.
•
Level 3 Unobservable inputs, where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability. These inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own beliefs about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, based on the best information available in the circumstances. The Company did not rely on any Level 3 measurements for any of its transactions in the periods included in these financial statements.
Revenue
recognition
We recognize revenue in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as outlined in the Financial Accounting
Standard Board's (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue From Contracts with Customers,
which requires that five steps be followed in evaluating revenue recognition: (i) identify the contract with the customer; (ii) identify
the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determine the transaction price; (iv) allocate the transaction price; and (v) recognize
revenue when or as the entity satisfied a performance obligation.
Product sales –
Revenues from the sale of products (Invisicare® polymers) are recognized when title to the products are transferred to the customer
and only when no further contingencies or material performance obligations are warranted, and thereby have earned the right to receive
reasonably assured payments for products sold and delivered.
F- 8
Table of Contents
Royalty sales –
We also recognize royalty revenue from licensing our patented product formulations only when earned, with no further contingencies or
material performance obligations are warranted, and thereby have earned the right to receive and retain reasonably assured payments.
Distribution and license
rights sales – We also recognize revenue from distribution and license rights when no further contingencies or material
performance obligations are warranted, and thereby have earned the right to receive and retain reasonably assured payments.
The Company has made an accounting policy election
to exclude from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes assessed by governmental authorities that are collected by the Company
from its customers (sales and use taxes, value added taxes, some excise taxes).
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable
is comprised of uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms requiring payment within 30 days from the invoice date.
The carrying amount of accounts receivable is reviewed periodically for collectability. If management determines that collection is unlikely,
an allowance that reflects management’s best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected is recorded. Management reviews
each accounts receivable balance that exceeds 30 days from the invoice date and, based on an assessment of creditworthiness, estimates
the portion, if any, of the balance that will not be collected. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had determined it was not
necessary to recognize a reserve for doubtful accounts.
Intangible assets
The Company follows
Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (FASB) Codification Topic 350-10 (“ASC 350-10”), “ Intangibles –
Goodwill and Other ”. According to this statement, intangible assets with indefinite lives are no longer subject to amortization,
but rather an annual assessment of impairment by applying a fair-value based test. Under ASC 350-10, the carrying value of assets
are calculated at the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash flows.
Income taxes
The Company accounts for its income
taxes in accordance with FASB Codification Topic ASC 740-10, “ Income Taxes ”, which requires recognition of deferred
tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of
existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to
be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period
that includes the enactment date.
Stock-based compensation
The Company
follows the guidelines in FASB Codification Topic ASC 718-10 “ Compensation-Stock Compensation ”, which requires the
measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including employee
stock options and employee stock purchases related to an Employee Stock Purchase Plan based on the estimated fair values.
Earnings (loss) per share
The Company reports earnings (loss) per share in accordance with FASB Codification Topic ASC 260-10 “Earnings Per Share”,
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number
of common shares available. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the denominator
is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been
issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Diluted earnings (loss) per share has not been presented for the year ending
December 31, 2021 since the effect of the assumed exercise of options and warrants to purchase common shares (common stock equivalents)
would have an anti-dilutive effect. There are 23,341,462 additional shares issuable in connection with outstanding options, warrants,
stock payable and convertible debts as of December 31, 2021 The shares issuable under each instrument is as follows; 30,000 shares issuable
for options, 40,000 shares issuable for warrants, 23,271,462 shares issuable under convertible notes.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements –
The Company has evaluated all other recent accounting pronouncements and believes that none of them will have a material effect on the
Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
License Agreement
On October 17, 2019,
Skinvisible entered an Exclusive License Agreement with Quoin pursuant to which Skinvisible granted to Quoin a license to certain patents
for the development of products for commercial sale. In exchange for the license, Quoin agreed to pay to Skinvisible a license fee of
$ 1,000,000 and a royalty percentage on all net sales on the licensed products subject to adjustment in certain situations. The agreement
also requires that Quoin make certain milestone payments to Skinvisible upon achieving regulatory approval milestones for certain drug
products.
The
agreement is subject to termination, if among other things, 50 % of the license fee is not paid by December 31, 2019 and if the full License
Fee is not paid by March 31, 2020. No payments were made by Quoin and the agreement was terminated on December 31, 2019. Both Parties
subsequently determined that they continue to see the value in a partnership and therefore on May 8, 2020 and again on July 31, 2020 the
companies agreed to extend the Exclusive License Agreement, as amended under the same terms to expire on September 30, 2020 and
on January 27, 2021 the companies agreed to revise the milestone payments due under the agreement and to extend the agreement indefinitely.
On June 14, 2021, the Company entered into an amendment to change
the terms of the license Fee as shown below.
As partial consideration for the rights conveyed
by Skinvisible under this Agreement, Licensee agrees to pay to Skinvisible a one-time, non-refundable, non-creditable license issue fee
of one million USD dollars (USO $1,000,000) (''License Fee''). To date, Licensee has paid three hundred ninety-two thousand five hundred
US dollars (USD $392,500) of this fee as part of the First Half Payment of the License Fee, $125,000 of which was paid in the year ending
December 31, 2020 and $375,000 in the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The balance due of the First Half Payment is one hundred seven
thousand five hundred US dollars (USD $107,500) which was received on July 7, 2021. A further payment of two hundred and fifty thousand
dollars ($250,000) is due no later than ten (10) business days after receipt by Licensee of additional funding from Altium Capital which
coincides with the approval from the SEC on Quoin’s merger with a NASDAQ listed company. On October 28, 2021 Quoin completed a merger
with Cellect Biotechnology, Ltd. And completed a securities purchase agreement with Altium Capital. The remaining balance of two hundred
and fifty thousand dollars ($250,000) is still outstanding as of December 31, 2021.
As of December 31, 2021 the Company has
recognized $ 750,000 under the agreement including $ 635,800 during the year ended December 31, 2021. The balance of licensing fee has
not yet been recognized as it is not yet probable that substantially all of the consideration will be collected.
On February 3, 2020,
we entered into a License Agreement with Ovation Science Inc. pursuant to which Skinvisible granted to Ovation Science Inc. a license
for the manufacture and distribution rights to its hand sanitizer product, DermSafe. In exchange for the license, Ovation Science Inc.
agreed to pay to Skinvisible a royalty percentage on all net sales on the licensed products subject to adjustment in certain situations
plus a license fee payable in year 3 of the agreement if it chooses to continue the license. On June 10, 2020, the agreement was further
amended to provide additional assignment rights for its hand sanitizer products in exchange for $ 100,000 .
9. INCOME TAXES
The Company provides for income taxes
under FASB ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. FASB ASC 740 requires the use of an asset and liability approach in accounting
for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases
of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect currently.
F- 13
Table of Contents
FASB ASC 740 requires the reduction of deferred
tax assets by a valuation allowance, if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the
deferred tax assets will not be realized. In the Company’s opinion, it is uncertain whether they will generate sufficient taxable
income in the future to fully utilize the net deferred tax asset. Accordingly, a valuation allowance equal to the deferred tax asset
has been recorded. The total deferred tax asset is approximately $ 3.3
million as of December 31, 2021 which is calculated by multiplying a 21 %
estimated tax rate by the cumulative net operating loss (NOL) of approximately $ 15.7
million.
Due to the enactment of the Tax Reform
Act of 2017, we have calculated our deferred tax assets using an estimated corporate tax rate of 21 % . US Tax codes and laws may be subject
to further reform or adjustment which may have a material impact to the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities.
The Company will recognize interest and
penalties related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had no accrued
interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions and no amounts have been recognized in the Company’s statement of operations.
The significant components of the Company's
deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 are as follows:
As of December 31,
2021

As of December

respectively.
The Company plans
to file its U.S. federal return for the year ended December 31, 2021 upon the issuance of this filing. Upon filing of the tax return for
the year ended December 31, 2021 the actual deferred tax asset and associated valuation allowance available to the Company may differ
from management’s estimates. The tax years 2018-2020 remained open to examination for federal income tax purposes by the major tax
jurisdictions to which the Company is subject. No tax returns are currently under examination by any tax authorities.

Item 9.
Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
On January 7, 2022, Prager Metis
CPAs, LLC (the “Former Accountant”) declined to stand for reappointment as our independent registered public accounting firm
and, on January 12, 2022, we engaged Gries and Associates, LLC (the “New Accountant”) as our independent registered public
accounting firm. The engagement of the New Accountant was approved by our Board of Directors.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15 under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures
as of the end of the period covered by this annual report, being December 31, 2021. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision
and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.
Disclosure controls and procedures
are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities
and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure
that information required to be disclosed in our company’s reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated
and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure.
Based upon that evaluation, including
our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective
as of the end of the period covered by this annual report.
Management’s Annual Report
on Internal Control over Financing Reporting
Our management is responsible for
establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934). Management has assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021 based
on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
As a result of this assessment, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2021, our internal control over financial reporting was
not effective. Our management identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, which are
indicative of many small companies with small staff: (i) inadequate segregation of duties and effective risk assessment; and (ii) insufficient
written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both US GAAP
and SEC guidelines.
We plan to take steps to enhance
and improve the design of our internal control over financial reporting. During the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K,
we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we hope to implement the following
changes during our fiscal year ending December 31, 2022: (i) appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation
of duties and ineffective risk management; and (ii) adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting.
The remediation efforts set out in (i) and (ii) are largely dependent upon our securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing
the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner.
This annual report 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 an exemption for non-accelerated filers set
forth in Section 989G of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
To the best of our knowledge, during
the past ten years, none of the following occurred with respect to a present or former director, executive officer, or employee: (1) any
bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time
of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; (2) any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal
proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); (3) being subject to any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently
reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise
limiting his or her involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; and (4) being found by a court of competent
jurisdiction (in a civil action), the SEC or the Commodities Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities
or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.
Audit Committee
We do not have a separately designated
standing audit committee. The entire board of directors performs the functions of an audit committee, but no written charter governs the
actions of the board of directors when performing the functions of that would generally be performed by an audit committee. The board
of directors approves the selection of our independent accountants and meets and interacts with the independent accountants to discuss
issues related to financial reporting. In addition, the board of directors reviews the scope and results of the audit with the independent
accountants, reviews with management and the independent accountants our annual operating results, considers the adequacy of our internal
accounting procedures and considers other auditing and accounting matters including fees to be paid to the independent auditor and the
performance of the independent auditor.
We do not have an audit committee
financial expert because of the size of our company and our board of directors at this time. We believe that we do not require an audit
committee financial expert at this time because we retain outside consultants who possess these attributes as needed.
For the fiscal year ending December
31, 2021, the board of directors:
1.
Reviewed and discussed the audited
financial statements with management, and
2.
Reviewed and discussed the written
disclosures and the letter from our independent auditors on the matters relating to the auditor’s independence.
Based upon the board of directors’ review and discussion of the matters above, the board of directors authorized inclusion of the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 to be included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Section
16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a)
of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of a registered
class of the Company’s equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of
common stock and other equity securities of the Company. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial shareholders are
required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. To the best of our knowledge based solely
on a review of Forms 3, 4, and 5 (and any amendments thereof) received by us during or with respect to the year ended December 31, 2021,
all filings were timely made.
Code

We adopted a Code of Ethics for Financial
Executives, which include our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or
persons performing similar functions. The Code of Ethics was filed as an exhibit to the annual report on Form 10KSB for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2004 and filed with the SEC on April 14, 2005.

Item
11. Executive Compensation
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
Currently, the objective of the cash
compensation paid by the company is to provide fair reimbursement for the time spent by our executive officer and independent directors
to the extent feasible within the financial constraints faced by our developing business. The stock options granted to our executive officer
and to our independent directors are intended to provide these individuals with incentives to pursue the growth and development of the
company’s operations and business opportunities. Although the options awarded to our executive and directors are typically exercisable
immediately, they also remain valid and exercisable for terms of several years. We believe this provides the proper balance of short-term
and long-term incentives to increase the value of the company. Although an immediate increase in share price following the issuance of
the options would obviously result in a profit if those options were exercised, the longer exercisable period of the options also provides
an incentive to increase value over the long term and gives our executive officer and directors the opportunity to realize gains based
on the sustained growth of our operations and revenues.
In addition, our sole executive officer
holds substantial ownership in the company and is generally motivated by a strong entrepreneurial interest in expanding our operations
and revenue base to the best of his ability.
