Note 2. Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), consistent in all material respects with those applied in the 2022 Form 10-K, for interim financial information and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes normally included in annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the 2022 Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all adjustments (consisting principally of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of comprehensive loss, statements of stockholders’ equity and statements of cash flows for such interim periods presented. Additionally, operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for a full year.
Business acquisition of Progressive Care, Inc.
On July 1, 2023, the Company, Charles M. Fernandez, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Rodney Barreto, Director of the Company, exercised common stock purchase warrants and were issued common stock shares by Progressive Care. After the exercise of the common stock purchase warrants, the Company and Messrs. Fernandez and Barreto collectively owned
The exercise of the stock options, along with the entry into the voting agreement, resulted in a change in control of Progressive Care under the voting interest model in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combination, and was accounted for as a business acquisition. Therefore, Progressive Care became a consolidated subsidiary of the Company on July 1, 2023. The Company previously accounted for its equity interest in Progressive Care as an equity method investment.
The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain 2022 financial information has been reclassified to conform to the 2023 presentation. Such reclassifications do not impact the Company’s previously reported financial position or net income (loss).
Use of Estimates
In preparing the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the statements of financial condition, and revenues and expenses for the years then ended. Actual results may differ significantly from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to, assumptions used to calculate stock-based compensation, fair value of net assets acquired in the business combination with Progressive Care Inc. common stock and options issued for services, net realizable value of accounts receivables the useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, the estimate of the fair value of the lease liability and related right of use assets, and the estimates of the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets and corporate income taxes.
Note 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies of the Company were described in Note 1 to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Progressive Care became a consolidated subsidiary of the Company on July 1, 2023 and as a result the Company has incorporated certain significant accounting policies of Progressive Care for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Cash
The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions. The Company’s account at this institution is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $
Foreign Currency Translation
The Company’s reporting currency is U.S. Dollars. The accounts of one of the Company’s subsidiaries, GTC, is maintained using the appropriate local currency, Great British Pound, as the functional currency. All assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. Dollars at balance sheet date, shareholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and revenue and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rate for the year or the reporting period. The translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, captioned as accumulated other comprehensive (loss) gain. Transaction gains and losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss.
The relevant translation rates are as follows: for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, closing rate at $
Unearned Revenue
Contract liabilities are shown separately in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as current liabilities. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had contract liabilities of approximately $
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Progressive Care trade accounts receivable are stated at the invoiced amount. Trade accounts receivable primarily include amounts from third-party pharmacy benefit managers (“PBMs”) and insurance providers and are based on contracted prices. Trade accounts receivable are unsecured and require no collateral. Progressive Care records an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated differences between the expected and actual payment of accounts receivable. These reductions were made based upon reasonable and reliable estimates that were determined by reference to historical experience, contractual terms, and current conditions. Each quarter, the Progressive Care reevaluates its estimates to assess the adequacy of its allowance and adjusts the amounts as necessary. Account balances are charged off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of over the value assigned to net tangible and identifiable intangible assets. Progressive Care is considered to be the reporting unit for goodwill. Acquired intangible assets other than goodwill are amortized over their useful lives unless the lives are determined to be indefinite. For intangible assets purchased in a business combination, the estimated fair values of the assets received are used to establish their recorded values. Valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach, and/or cost approach are used to measure fair value. Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are assessed annually for impairment in the fourth fiscal quarter and in interim periods if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired.
Direct and Indirect Remuneration ("DIR") Fees
Progressive Care reports DIR fees as a reduction of revenue on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. DIR fees are fees charged by PBMs to pharmacies for network participation as well as periodic reimbursement reconciliations. For some pharmacy benefit managers ("PBMs"), DIR fees are charged at the time of the settlement of a pharmacy claim. Other PBMs do not determine DIR fees at the claim settlement date, and therefore DIR fees are collected from pharmacies after claim settlement, often as clawbacks of reimbursements based on factors that vary from plan to plan. For example, two PBMs calculate DIR fees on a trimester basis and charge Progressive Care for these fees as reductions of reimbursements paid to Progressive Care two to three months after the end of the trimester (e.g., DIR fees for January – April 20xx claims were charged by these PBMs in July – August 20xx). For DIR fees that are not collected at the time of claim settlement, Progressive Care records an accrued liability at each reporting date for estimated DIR fees that are expected to be collected by the PBMs in a future period. The estimated liability for these fees is highly subjective and the actual amount collected may differ from the accrued liability. The uncertainty of management’s estimates is due to inadequate disclosure to Progressive Care by the PBMs as to exactly how these fees are calculated either at the time the DIR fees are actually assessed and reported to Progressive Care. The detail level of the disclosure of assessed DIR fees varies based on the information provided by the PBM.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326) Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”), which introduces an impairment model based on expected, rather than incurred, losses. Additionally, it requires expanded disclosures regarding (a) credit risk inherent in a portfolio and how management monitors the portfolio’s credit quality; (b) management’s estimate of expected credit losses; and (c) changes in estimates of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses.” This ASU clarifies receivables from operating leases are accounted for using the lease guidance and not as financial instruments. In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-04, “Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments.” This ASU clarifies various scoping and other issues arising from ASU 2016-13. In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-03, “Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments.” This ASU improves the Codification and amends the interaction of Topic 842 and Topic 326. ASU 2016-13 and related amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2023 and the adoption had no material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. On an ongoing basis, the Company will contemplate forward-looking economic conditions in recording lifetime expected credit losses for the Company’s financial assets measured at cost, such as the Company’s trade receivables.
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.
Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through November [ ], 2023, the date the condensed consolidated financial statements were available to be issued. See Note [] for subsequent events that require disclosure in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Note 4. Acquisition - Provisional
On July 1, 2023, the Company, along with Messrs. Fernandez and Barreto, exercised common stock purchase warrants and were issued common stock shares by Progressive Care. The Company exercised common stock purchase warrants on a cashless basis and was issued
Also, on July 1, 2023, the Company, along with Messrs. Fernandez and Barreto, entered into a voting agreement whereby at any annual or special shareholders meeting of Progressive Care’s stockholders, and whenever the holders of Progressive Care’s common stock act by written consent, Messrs. Fernandez and Barreto agreed to vote all of the common stock shares (including any new shares acquired after the date of the voting agreement or acquired through the conversion of securities convertible into Common Stock) that they own, directly or indirectly, in the same manner that the Company votes its common stock and equivalents. The voting agreement is irrevocable and perpetual in term.
As a result of the common stock purchase warrant exercises and the entry into the voting agreement, the Company concluded that there was a change in control in Progressive Care. As of July 1, 2023, NextPlat has the right to control more than 50 percent of the voting interests in Progressive Care through the concurrent common stock purchase warrant exercises and voting agreement noted above. Beginning on July 1, 2023, the Company changed the accounting method for its investment in Progressive Care, which prior to July 1, 2023 had been accounted for as an equity method investment to consolidation under the voting interest model in FASB ASC Topic 805. Therefore, Progressive Care became a consolidated subsidiary of the Company on July 1, 2023.
Final purchase accounting adjustments may be materially different from the pro forma adjustments presented in this document. Increases or decreases in the fair value of the net assets may change the amount of the purchase price allocated to goodwill and other assets and liabilities. Measurement period adjustments will be recognized prospectively. The measurement period is not to exceed 12 months from the respective dates of acquisition.

Note 5. Fair Value
Accounting standards define fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Accounting standards establish a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value and also establishes the following three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities.
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair value disclosures for financial instruments:
| ● |
Cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities: The amounts reported in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. |
| ● |
Notes payable and lease liabilities: The carrying amount of notes payable approximated fair value due to variable interest rates at customary terms and rates the Company could obtain in current financing. The carrying value of lease liabilities approximated fair value due to the implicit rate in the lease in relation to the Company’s borrowing rate and the duration of the leases (Level 2 inputs). |
Identifiable Intangible Assets
The initial recognition of the Progressive Care's identifiable intangible assets, resulting from the acquisition on July 1, 2023 and the application of push-down accounting, were measured using Level 3 inputs. The fair value at the date of acquisition was approximately $
Note 6. Revenue
e-Commerce revenue:
The Company recognizes revenue from satellite services when earned, as services are rendered or delivered to customers. Equipment sales revenue is recognized when the equipment is delivered to and accepted by the customer. Only equipment sales are subject to warranty. Historically, the Company has not incurred significant expenses for warranties. Equipment sales which have been prepaid, before the goods are shipped are recorded as contract liabilities and once shipped and accepted by the customer is recognized as revenue. The Company also records as contract liabilities, certain annual plans for airtime, which are paid in advance. Once airtime services are incurred, they are recognized as revenue. Unbilled revenue is recognized for airtime plans whereby the customer is invoiced for its data usage the following month after services are incurred.
Healthcare revenue:
The Company recognizes pharmacy revenue and 340B contract revenue from dispensing prescription drugs at the time the drugs are physically delivered to a customer or when a customer picks up their prescription or purchases merchandise at the store, which is the point in time when control transfers to the customer. Each prescription claim is considered an arrangement with the customer and is a separate performance obligation. Payments are received directly from the customer at the point of sale, or the customers’ insurance provider is billed electronically. For third-party medical insurance and other claims, authorization is obtained to ensure payment from the customer’s insurance provider before the medication is dispensed to the customer. Authorization is obtained for these sales electronically and a corresponding authorization number is issued by the customers’ insurance provider.
The Company accrues an estimate of pharmacy benefit manager (“PBM”) fees, including direct and indirect remuneration (“DIR”) fees, which are assessed or expected to be assessed by payers at some point after adjudication of a claim, as a reduction of revenue at the time revenue is recognized. Changes in the estimate of such fees are recorded as an adjustment to revenue when the change becomes known.
The Company recognizes COVID-19 testing revenue when the tests are performed and results are delivered to the customer. Each test is considered an arrangement with the customer and is a separate performance obligation. Payment is generally received in advance from the customer.

Note 7. Earnings (Loss) per Share
Net income (loss) per common share is calculated in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 260: Earnings per Share (“ASC 260”). Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted net loss per share does not include dilutive common stock equivalents in the weighted average shares outstanding as they would be anti-dilutive. In periods where the Company has a net loss, all dilutive securities are excluded.

Note 19. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
On June 22, 2021, Thomas Seifert’s employment as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer was terminated for cause. Mr. Seifert asserts that the termination was not for cause and that he is owed all compensation payable under his employment agreement executed in June 2021. The Company’s position is that Mr. Seifert is not owed any additional consideration or compensation relating to his prior service with the Company or arising under any employment agreement. The Company believes it has adequate defenses to any such claims. The Company has determined to initiate litigation against Mr. Seifert asserting a number of claims including, but not limited to, rescission of the employment agreement, fraud in the inducement in connection with the execution of the employment agreement, and breach of the fiduciary duties of good faith and loyalty. The Company does not expect to seek substantial monetary relief in the litigation.
From time to time, the Company may become involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. The Company is not currently involved in any pending legal proceeding or litigation, and, to the best of our knowledge, no governmental authority is contemplating any proceeding to which the Company is a party or to which any of the Company’s properties is subject, which would reasonably be likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and operating results.
On June 8, 2022, a complaint was filed by Progressive Care against KeyCentrix, LLC (“KCL”), in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, alleging fraudulent inducement, breach of express warranty and breach of implied warranty. The complaint stems from an agreement by KCL to license to Progressive Care certain pharmacy management software known as “Newleaf” for use in the operations of pharmacies operated by the Company.
Note 20. Leases
The Company has entered into a number of lease arrangements under which the Company is the lessee. These leases are classified as operating leases. In addition, the Company has elected the short-term lease practical expedient in ASC Topic 842 related to real estate leases with terms of one year. The following is a summary of the Company’s lease arrangements.
Finance Lease Agreements
In May 2018, Progressive Care entered into a finance lease obligation to purchase pharmacy equipment with a cost of approximately $
In December 2020, Progressive Care entered into an interest-free finance lease obligation to purchase computer servers with a cost of approximately $
Operating Lease Agreements

The Florida lease does not require any contingent rental payments, impose any financial restrictions, or contain any residual value guarantees. Variable expenses generally represent the Company’s share of the landlord’s operating expenses. The Company does not have any leases classified as financing leases.
The rate implicit to the Florida lease is not readily determinable, and we therefore use our incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the lease payments. The weighted average incremental borrowing rate used to determine the initial value of right of use (ROU) assets and lease liabilities for the six months ended September 30, 2023 and for the year ended December 31, 2022 was
We monitor for events or changes in circumstances that require a reassessment of one of our leases. When a reassessment results in the re-measurement of a lease liability, a corresponding adjustment is made to the carrying amount of the corresponding ROU asset unless doing so would reduce the carrying amount of the ROU asset to an amount less than zero. In that case, the amount of the adjustment that would result in a negative ROU asset balance is recorded in profit or loss.
Progressive Care entered into a lease agreement for its Orlando pharmacy in August 2020. The term of the lease is
Progressive Care leases its North Miami Beach pharmacy location under an operating lease agreement with a lease commencement date in September 2021. The term of the lease is
Progressive Care also leases its Palm Beach County pharmacy locations under operating lease agreements expiring in February 2024.
The increase in leases was attributable to the consolidation of Progressive Care at July 1, 2023.
Note 21. Reportable Segments
The Company has reportable segments: (i) e-Commerce Operations, which involves acquiring and leasing, primarily an e-commerce platform to collaborate with businesses to optimize their ability to sell their goods online, domestically, and internationally, and enabling customers and partners to optimize their e-commerce presence and revenue, and other related businesses and (ii) Healthcare Operations, which provides TPA, data management, COVID-19 related diagnostics and vaccinations, prescription pharmaceuticals, compounded medications, telepharmacy services, anti-retroviral medications, medication therapy management, the supply of prescription medications to long-term care facilities, medication adherence packaging, contracted pharmacy services for 340B covered entities under the 340B Drug Discount Pricing Program, and health practice risk management.
The Company evaluates the performance of each of the segments based on profit or loss after general and administrative expenses. While the Company believes there are synergies between the two business segments, the segments are managed separately because each requires different business strategies.
The following tables present a summary of the reportable segments:

As of the date of the SPA, the aggregate amount of principal and interest outstanding on the Note was approximately $2.8 million. As part of the Modification Agreement, various terms of the Note were modified, among them, the Conversion Price for the Note was modified to a fixed price of $4.00 per share of common stock (after giving effect to the Reverse Stock Split described below).

On May 9, 2023, the Companies closed the transactions contemplated in the SPA.

Also, on July 1, 2023, NextPlat, along with Messrs. Fernandez and Barreto, entered into a voting agreement whereby at any annual or special shareholders meeting of Progressive Care’s stockholders, and whenever the holders of Progressive Care’s common stock act by written consent, Messrs. Fernandez and Barreto agreed to vote all of the common stock shares (including any new shares acquired after the date of the voting agreement or acquired through the conversion of securities convertible into Common Stock) that they own, directly or indirectly, in the same manner that NextPlat votes its common stock and equivalents. The voting agreement is irrevocable and perpetual in term.
As a result of the common stock purchase warrant exercises and the entry into the voting agreement, NextPlat concluded that there was a change in control in Progressive Care. As of July 1, 2023, NextPlat has the right to control more than 50 percent of the voting interests in Progressive Care through the concurrent common stock purchase warrant exercises and voting agreement noted above. Beginning on July 1, 2023, the Company changed the accounting method for its investment in Progressive Care, which prior to July 1, 2023 had been accounted for as an equity method investment to consolidation under the voting interest model in FASB ASC Topic 805. Therefore, Progressive Care became a consolidated subsidiary of the Company on July 1, 2023.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The significant accounting policies of the Company were described in Note 1. to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Beginning on July 1, 2023, the Company changed the accounting method for its investment in Progressive Care from the equity method to the consolidation method. This change is the result of certain common stock warrant exercises by the Company and Messrs. Fernandez and Barreto and the Company's entry into the voting agreement with Messrs. Fernandez and Barreto, which cumulatively resulted in the Company having control over approximately 53% of the issued and outstanding voting stock of Progressive Care. Progressive Care became a consolidated subsidiary of the Company on July 1, 2023 and as a result the Company has incorporated certain significant accounting policies of Progressive Care for the three months ended September 30, 2023.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of over the value assigned to net tangible and identifiable intangible assets. Progressive Care is considered to be the reporting unit for goodwill. Acquired intangible assets other than goodwill are amortized over their useful lives unless the lives are determined to be indefinite. For intangible assets purchased in a business combination, the estimated fair values of the assets received are used to establish their recorded values. Valuation techniques consistent with the market approach, income approach, and/or cost approach are used to measure fair value. Goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets are assessed annually for impairment in the fourth fiscal quarter and in interim periods if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets may be impaired.
The three month results of operations ended September 30, 2023 include results of operations for the Progressive Care subsidiary for the period from the date of acquisition, July 1, 2023, to September 30, 2023. The three month results of operations ended September 30, 2022 include only NextPlat Corp and its wholly owned subsidiaries and do not include Progressive Care.

We recorded a net gain in equity of our affiliate, Progressive Care, of approximately $6.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, as a result of a change in the accounting treatment from equity method to consolidation as of July 1, 2023. See Note 14 – Equity Method Investment. For the three months ended September 30, 2022, we recorded a net loss in the equity of our affiliate, Progressive Care, of approximately $3.5 million which was accounted for as an equity method investment.
Net Income (Loss).
We recorded net income of approximately $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and a net loss of approximately ($5.7 million) for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was a result of the factors described above.
Comprehensive Income.
We recorded comprehensive (gains) losses for foreign currency translation adjustments of approximately ($0.2 million) and $0.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The change was primarily attributed to exchange rate variances.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recognized overall revenue from operations of approximately $21.1 million and $9.1 million, respectively, an overall increase of approximately $12.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022.The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $12.4 million in the healthcare operations as a result of the Progressive Care acquisition as of July 1, 2023. e-Commerce revenues decreased by approximately $0.3 million and was mainly due to non-recurring revenue from the Ukraine war during the first half of 2022, partially offset by an increase in sales of satellite communication devices and associated recurring airtime revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, when compared to the same period in 2022.
Gross profit margins increased from approximately 22.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, to 28.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in gross profit margins during the first three quarters of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, was primarily attributable to the healthcare operations as a results of the Progressive Care acquisition as of July 1, 2023.
Loss before other (income) expense increased by approximately $3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022, as a result of the increase in gross profit of approximately $4.0 million, partially offset by the increase in operating expenses of approximately $7.5 million.

Total operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, were approximately $14.1 million, an increase of approximately $7.5 million or 114.6%, from total operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, of approximately $6.6 million. Factors contributing to the increase are described below.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were approximately $7.5 million and $3.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, an increase of approximately $4.1 million or 118.2%. The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was mainly attributable to the increase in stock-based compensation of approximately $2.6 million, other operating expenses of approximately $0.4 million as it relates to the e-Commerce operations, and operating expenses of approximately $1.1 million as it relates to the healthcare operations of the Progressive Care acquisition on July 1, 2023, when compared to the same period in 2022.
Salaries, wages and payroll taxes were approximately $4.0 million and $2.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, an increase of approximately $2.1 million or 106.3%. The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, when compared to the same periods in 2022, was mainly attributable to executive bonus payments, salary increases, and severance payments of approximately $0.2 million and the healthcare operations as a result of the Progressive Care acquisition as of July 1, 2023, of approximately $1.9 million.
Professional fees were approximately $1.4 million and $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, an increase of approximately $0.6 million or 65.0%. The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, when compared to the same period in 2022, was mainly attributable to legal fees associated with the capital raise in April 2023, the annual meeting held during the second quarter of 2023, and consulting fees as it relates to the e-Commerce operations of approximately $0.3 million, and legal and consulting fees as it relates to the healthcare operations from Progressive Care acquisition on July 1, 2023, of approximately $0.2 million.
Depreciation and amortization expenses were approximately $1.2 million and $0.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, an increase of approximately $0.9 million or 245.0%. The increase was mainly attributable to depreciation and amortization as it relates to the healthcare operations from Progressive Care acquisition on July 1, 2023, of approximately $0.7 million and approximately $0.2 million as it relates to the e-Commerce operations.
We expect our expenses in each of these areas to continue to increase during fiscal 2023 and beyond as we expand our operations and begin generating additional revenues under our current business.
Total Other (Income) Expense.
Our total other (income) expense was approximately ($0.6 million) and $0.2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, an overall favorable impact of approximately $0.8 million. The favorable impact was attributable to interest earned, management fees earned during the first half of 2023, write off of aged payables, and offset by unfavorable fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.
Equity Method Investment.
We recorded a net gain in equity of our affiliate, Progressive Care, of approximately $6.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as a result of a change in the accounting treatment from equity method to consolidation as of July 1, 2023. See Note 14 – Equity Method Investment. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, we recorded a net loss in the equity of our affiliate, Progressive Care, of approximately $1.4 million and $3.5 million, respectively, which was accounted for as an equity method investment.
Net Loss.
We recorded net loss of approximately $2.9 million and $8.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease in the net loss was a result of the factors described above.
Comprehensive Loss.
We recorded comprehensive losses for foreign currency translation adjustments of approximately $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The change was primarily attributed to exchange rate variances.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. As of September 30, 2023, we had a cash balance of approximately $26.4 million. Our working capital was approximately $29.1 million at September 30, 2023.
Our current assets at September 30, 2023 increased 106.5% from December 31, 2022 primarily due to cash received during capital raise in April 2023 and Progressive Care consolidation as of July 1, 2023..
Our current liabilities at September 30, 2023 increased approximately $12.6 million from December 31, 2022 primarily due to Progressive Care consolidation as of July 1, 2023.
As of the date of this report, the Company’s existing cash resources and existing borrowing availability are sufficient to support planned operations for the next 12 months. As a result, management believes that the existing financial resources are sufficient to continue operating activities for at least one year past the issuance date of the financial statements.

Cash Flow from Operating Activities
Net cash flows used by operating activities totaled approximately $4.3 million and $2.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and changed by approximately $1.5 million period over period. The unfavorable change of approximately $1.5 million was primarily attributable to the following:
- favorable change in net loss of approximately $5.3 million;
- unfavorable change in other non-cash items of approximately $4.5 million and include stock-based compensation, amortization, depreciation, loss in equity of equity method investment, and gain in equity method investment;
- unfavorable change in operating assets of approximately $6.3 million and mainly a result of increased accounts receivable and inventory due to the acquisitions of Progressive Care as of July 1, 2023;

Net cash flows provided by (used in) investing activities were approximately $5.4 million and ($7.5 million) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and changed by approximately $12.9 million period over period. The favorable change of approximately $12.9 million was primarily attributable to the following:
- cash acquired in the acquisition of Progressive Care of approximately $7.4 million;
- non-recurring capital contributions of approximately $5.5 million to equity method investee, Progressive Care (approximately $1.5 million in 2023 vs. $7.0 million in 2022).
Cash Flow from Financing Activities
Net cash flows provided by financing activities were approximately $6.3 million and $5.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and changed by approximately $0.8 million period over period. The cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was primarily attributable to proceeds from capital raises during those periods offset by payments on loans.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not currently have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to our stockholders.
Our company has not entered into any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement with an entity unconsolidated with us under which we have
| ● |
an obligation under a guaranteed contract, although we do have obligations under certain sales arrangements including purchase obligations to vendors |
| ● |
a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to the unconsolidated entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity for such assets, |
| ● |
any obligation, including a contingent obligation, under a contract that would be accounted for as a derivative instrument, or |
| ● |
any obligation, including a contingent obligation, arising out of a variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that is held by us and material to us where such entity provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support to, or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us. |
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. In accordance with Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness and design of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that as of September 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Inherent Limitations on Controls. Management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent or detect all errors and fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.
(c) Changes in internal controls over financial reporting. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2023, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
On June 22, 2021, Thomas Seifert’s employment as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer was terminated for cause. Mr. Seifert asserts that the termination was not for cause and that he is owed all compensation payable under his employment agreement executed in June 2021. The Company’s position is that Mr. Seifert is not owed any additional consideration or compensation relating to his prior service with the Company or arising under any employment agreement. The Company and Mr. Seifert are currently engaged in litigation over the matter of his employment and termination. The Company believes it has adequate defenses to Mr. Seifert’s claims and has advanced claims against Mr. Seifert including, but not limited to, breach of the employment agreement, breach of the fiduciary, fraud in the inducement in connection with the employment agreement, fraudulent misrepresentation, and constructive fraud. The Company does not expect to seek substantial monetary relief in the litigation. This dispute is pending before the District Court for the Southern District of Florida under Case No. 1:21-cv-22436-DPG.
On June 8, 2022, a complaint was filed by Progressive Care against KeyCentrix, LLC (“KCL”), in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida, alleging fraudulent inducement, breach of express warranty and breach of implied warranty. The complaint stems from an agreement by KCL to license to Progressive Care certain pharmacy management software known as “Newleaf” for use in the operations of pharmacies operated by the Company.
From time to time, the Company may become involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. The Company is not currently involved in any pending legal proceeding or litigation, and to the best of our knowledge, no governmental authority is contemplating any proceeding to which the Company is a party or to which any of the Company’s properties is subject, which would reasonably be likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and operating results.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Investors should carefully consider the risks in the “Risk Factors” in Part 1: Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023, and our other filings with the SEC. These risks are not the only ones facing the Company. Additional risks not currently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial may also impair our business operations. Any of these risks could adversely affect our business, cash flows, financial condition, and results of operations. The trading price of our common stock could fluctuate due to any of these risks, and investors may lose all or part of their investment. In assessing these risks, investors should also refer to the other information contained or incorporated by reference in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
