PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Company Overview

United Health Products, Inc. (“UHP” or the “Company”) develops, manufactures, and markets a patented hemostatic gauze for the healthcare and wound care sectors. Our gauze product, HemoStyp®, is a neutralized, oxidized, regenerated cellulose (“NORC”) derived from cotton and designed to absorb exudate/drainage from superficial wounds and help control bleeding. We are in the process of seeking regulatory approval to sell our Hemostyp product line into the U.S. Class III surgical market.

Recent Developments

The following developments in the Company’s business have occurred during 2020:

	•	The London based Journal of Wound Care published a peer-reviewed article, Efficacy and Safety of HemoStyp as an Adjunct for Management of Secondary Hemostasis in the Operative Setting, in its November 2020 edition. The article highlights the results of the human trial demonstrating HemoStyp’s superiority to Surgicel® Original, the current mechanical hemostat standard of care produced by Johnson & Johnson’s Ethicon division.

	•	On January 21, 2021, the U.S. Patent Office provided notification of publication of the Company’s patent application for the method of forming and using a hemostatic hydrocolloid. This publication does not imply any assurance of the receipt of the patent but establishes an obligation of any party that seeks to use the applicable method to pay royalties for the right to do so. The patent application for this process remains pending as of the date of this filing.

	•	On February 11, 2021, the Company was notified that its application to establish global patent protection for the process of creating and deploying a hydrocolloid (or gel) format of its previously patented HemoStyp hemostatic gauze was accepted for publication under the procedures of the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”), which is an international patent law treaty which provides a unified procedure for filing a patent application in most foreign countries. The Company previously filed provisional patent applications for its HemoStyp gauze and the hydrocolloid process in July 2019 and 2020, respectively. The Company now has up to one year to register specific patents in those countries where it wishes to commercialize any future HemoStyp gel formats and will do so as its gel-related R&D activity progresses through 2021.

	•	On March 3, 2021 we participated in a discussion with the Food & Drug Administration (“FDA”) regarding our Premarket Approval (“PMA”) application, wherein the FDA requested supplemental information relating to our manufacturing procedures, including quality control related documentation. The FDA also commented that the form and content of our clinical and non-clinical data has been evaluated and were satisfactory for them to complete their review process once our application was finalized. We are collecting the requested information and incorporating these materials into our PMA application and will to resubmit to the FDA once completed. There can be no assurance that our application, once revised and resubmitted, will lead to a successful FDA decision regarding a PMA.

Our HemoStyp Gauze Products

HemoStyp hemostatic gauze is a collagen-like natural substance created from chemically treated cellulose derived from cotton. It is an effective hemostatic agent registered with the FDA for superficial use under a 510k approval obtained in 2012 to help control bleeding from open wounds and body cavities. The HemoStyp hemostatic material contains no chemical additives, thrombin or collagen, and is hypoallergenic. When the product comes in contact with blood it expands slightly and quickly converts to a gel that subsequently breaks down into glucose and salts. Because of its benign impact on body tissue and the fact that it degrades to non-toxic end products, HemoStyp does not impede the healing of body tissue as do certain competing hemostatic products. Laboratory testing has shown HemoStyp to be 100% absorbable in the human body in 24 hours or less compared to days or weeks with competing organic regenerated cellulose products. A human trial conducted in 2019 and 2020 demonstrated the effectiveness of HemoStyp in vascular, thoracic and abdominal surgical procedures.

HemoStyp hemostatic gauze is a flexible, silk-like material that is applied by placing the gauze onto the bleeding tissue. The supple material can be easily folded and manipulated as needed to fit the size of the wound or incision. In surface bleeding and surgical situations, the product quickly converts to a translucent gel that allows the physician or surgeon to monitor the coagulation process. The gel maintains a neutral pH level which avoids damaging the surrounding tissue. In superficial bleeding situations, HemoStyp can be bonded to an adhesive plastic bandage or integrated into a traditional gauze component to address a broad range of needs, including traumatic bleeding injuries and prolonged bleeding following hemodialysis.

Potential Target Markets

Our HemoStyp material is currently cut to several sizes and configuration and marketed as HemoStyp Gauze. While we have paused our commercial activities to focus on our Class III PMA application, our potential customer base includes, without limitation, the following:

	•	Hospitals and Surgery Centers for all Internal Surgical usage (in the event we obtain FDA Class III approval)
	•	Hospitals, Clinics and Physicians for external trauma
	•	EMS, Fire Departments and other First Responders
	•	Military Medical Care Providers
	•	Hemodialysis centers
	•	Nursing Homes and Assisted Living Facilities
	•	Dental and Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery Offices
	•	Veterinary hospitals

Primary Strategy

Or HemoStyp technology received an FDA 510k approval in 2012 for use in external or superficial bleeding situations and we believe there is an opportunity for HemoStyp products to address unmet needs in several medical applications that represent attractive commercial opportunities. However, the Class III surgical markets, both domestic and international, represent the most attractive market for our products due to the smaller number of competitors offering Class III approved hemostatic agents and the resulting premium pricing for products that can meet the demanding requirements of the human surgical environment. In 2018, we made the decision to focus our efforts and resources on accessing these Class III markets to maximize the value potential of our HemoStyp. The Class III PMA process requires a substantial investment of time and resources so we made the strategic determination to pause our sales and marketing to non-Class III markets in order to devote our full attention to the FDA process. Our extensive laboratory testing and our completed human trial indicate that the HemoStyp technology can successfully compete against established Class III market participants and allow us to gain a significant market share.

As of the filing date of this Form 10-K, the FDA PMA review process, which was slowed by the Covid-19 pandemic, is ongoing.

In anticipation of receiving a Class III PMA, we are evaluating paths to rapidly grow our revenue and profits in all potential market segments, with the objective of maximizing shareholder value. Options under consideration include (i) a sale or merger of the Company with an industry leader in the wound care and surgical device sectors, which may include a pre-sale collaboration on commercialization and distribution, (ii) one or more commercial partnerships with established market participants, without any specific, associated sale or merger transaction, and (iii) a capital raising program to establish and grow our own marketing and distribution capabilities and drive revenue and profits organically, including a potential business combination with a cash-rich counterparty that would provide funding for this strategy as well as liquidity for those Company shareholders that may seek it.

The Company has been contacted by several medical technology companies that are active in the surgical equipment and hemostatic products sectors, and who have expressed an interest in the Company’s products and business strategy. In response to these inbound contacts, we continue to engage in regular discussions to evaluate the potential commercial partnerships as we approach the FDA decision on our Class III PMA application. There can be no assurances that any specific transaction will occur as a result of this strategy. No assurances can be given that the Company will identify an acquisition or commercialization candidate(s) or complete a transaction.

Manufacturing and Packaging of our Products

The Company’s NORC products are manufactured largely in the United States to our specifications and using our equipment through a contract manufacturing arrangement with an FDA certified contract manufacturer that maintains stringent quality control protocols to assure the uniformity and quality of all of our gauze products. Information on our equipment, the manufacturing process and our partner’s facility has been submitted as part of our PMA submission, which includes the FDA inspection records of the facility. Certain of our adhesive bandage formats designed for the 510k market are manufactured by a separate contractor based in China.

Patents and Trademarks

Our NORC technology is protected through patents filed with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”), which protection currently runs through 2029. In 2020 we filed an additional U.S. patent that protects the use of our NORC technology in a gel or hydrocolloid formulation.

The Company has registered trademarks for the following product formats:

	•	Boo Boo Strips

	•	The Ultimate Bandage

	•	Hemostrips

	•	Nik Fix

Competition

The wound care products market in the United States is dominated by established companies such as Baxter International, Bristol-Myers Squibb Company, Johnson & Johnson and 3M Company, each of which have greater capital and operational resources than us. Our hemostatic gauze product will directly compete in the gauze markets served by these companies. In this market, competitive factors include product performance, price, range of product offerings, value-added service programs, service and delivery, credit terms, and customer support.

Government Regulation

We are subject to oversight by various federal and state governmental entities and we are subject to, and affected by, a variety of federal and state laws, regulations and policies generally applicable to the healthcare and medical device industries.

Environmental Matters

The Company may be subject to, or affected by, environmental legislation including, among others, the Toxic Substances Control Act, the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, Compensation and Liability Act (aka CERCLA or Superfund) and the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. There may be laws and regulations that exist or that may come to pass that we cannot foresee that may also have an impact on the Company. Compliance with the multitude of regulations issued by federal, state, provincial and local administrative agencies that may apply to the Company can be burdensome and costly. To date, the Company has not been impacted by these laws and regulations.

Research and Development Expenditures

In the years ending December 31, 2020 and 2019 we incurred $245,218 and $666,388, respectively, in research and development expenditures.

Personnel

As of March 24, 2021, we have seven full-time personnel working under consulting agreements. Additionally, we have four Medical Advisory Board members.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

We are engaged in the development, sale and distribution of hemostatic gauze products to stop superficial bleeding. As we develop our business, there are numerous and varied risks, known and unknown, that may prevent us from achieving our goals. If any of these risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operation may be materially adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and investors could lose all or part of their investment.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

We have a history of operating losses and we may continue to lose money in the future

For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had a net loss of $15,711,400 and $6,602,295, respectively. We may continue to lose money in the future. For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had a net loss of $15,711,400 and $6,602,295, respectively. Due to strategic determination to pause our sales and marketing to non-Class III markets in order to devote our full attention to the FDA process, we do not expect to generate revenue until that process is successfully completed (which we cannot assure) and we take steps to commercialize our Hemostyp product. We thus expect to continue to lose money in the future, and we will rely on financing to fund our plans for the foreseeable future as discussed in the Risk Factor “We will need additional financing to execute our business plan and fund operations, which may not be available”.

We can provide no assurances that given that the Class III application for internal surgical procedures will be approved by the FDA.

On March 3, 2021 we participated in a discussion with the Food & Drug Administration (“FDA”) regarding our Premarket Approval (“PMA”) application, wherein the FDA requested supplemental information relating to our manufacturing procedures, including quality control related documentation. The FDA also commented that the form and content of our clinical and non-clinical data has been evaluated and were satisfactory for them to complete their review process once our application was finalized. We are collecting the requested information and incorporating these materials into our PMA application and will to resubmit to the FDA once completed. There can be no assurance that our application, once revised and resubmitted, will lead to a successful FDA decision regarding a PMA.

Impacts of COVID-19 has delayed the FDA’s review and decision on our application for Class III PMA of our HemoStyp product.

COVID-19 caused a diversion of resources at the FDA which has slowed the review and decision on our FDA application for Class III PMA of our HemoStyp product for internal surgical purposes. During the fourth quarter of 2020 the FDA was able to re-engage with us regarding our application. However, due to the FDA’s focus of attention on the COVID-19 pandemic, we do anticipate that the length of time needed to obtain FDA approval of our HemoStyp product for internal surgical purposes will be negatively impacted.

No assurances can be given that our Management plans to attempt to penetrate all market segments will be successful.

We believe that rather than focusing on immediate sales activities of our products in targeted markets during this period of time before receiving anticipated FDA approval for Class III surgical markets, that refocusing the Company to become a stronger, medical technology corporation with a patented technology for Class III surgical markets is a preferable strategy to enhance the Company’s value and overall market strength. In this regard, we believe that the Class III surgical markets, both domestic and international, represent the most attractive market for our products due to the limited competition from other Class III approved ORC (Oxidized Regenerated Cellulose) products and the resulting premium pricing for hemostatic agents that can meet the demanding requirements of the human surgical environment. As of the filing date of this Form 10-K, the FDA review process, which was temporarily held up by the Covid-19 virus pandemic, is ongoing. In the event we receive Class III approval, the success of which cannot be assured, we are evaluating the best paths to attempt to rapidly grow our revenue and profits in all potential market segments, which could include one or more commercial partnerships and licensing agreements with established market participants or an acquisition/merger agreement with any such participants, each as an alternative to raising the necessary capital to establish and grow our own marketing and distribution capabilities via organic growth. We will carefully evaluate the returns on investment to create shareholder value of each of these strategies. No assurances can be given that our Management plans to attempt to penetrate all market segments or be acquired/merged with an established market participant will be successful on terms satisfactory to us, if at all.

We can provide no assurances that ongoing discussions with potential commercial partners and acquirers will result in the occurrence of a specific transaction.

The Company has been contacted by several medical technology companies that are active in the surgical equipment and hemostatic products sectors, and who have expressed an interest in the Company’s products and business strategy. In response to these inbound contacts, and to maximize shareholder value, the Company continues to explore a range of strategic alternatives which include, without limitation, entering into one or more commercial and distribution partnerships, a sale of the Company or a standalone growth plan. To assist in this review, the Company is working with a financial advisory firm. There can be no assurances that any specific transaction will occur as a result of these discussions. No assurances can be given that the Company will identify a suitable acquisition or commercialization partnership candidate(s) or complete any transaction on terms that are in the best interests of shareholders.

We will need additional financing to execute our business plan and fund operations, which may not be available.

We currently have a working capital deficit, minimal cash and limited sales of our products. As result of the Company’s financial position, we may not be able to execute our current business plan and fund business operations long enough to achieve profitability. Our ultimate success may depend upon our ability to raise additional capital. There can be no assurance that additional funds will be available when needed from any source or, if available, will be available on terms that are acceptable to us.

We will pursue required additional capital through various means, including commercial collaborations and debt or equity financings. Future financings through equity investments are likely to be dilutive to existing stockholders. Also, the terms of securities we may issue in future capital transactions may be more favorable for our new investors. Newly issued securities may include preferences, superior voting rights, the issuance of warrants or other derivative securities. The issuances of incentive awards under existing and future employee incentive plans, may have additional dilutive effects. Further, we may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital and/or financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, printing and distribution expenses and other costs. We may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain securities we may issue, such as convertible notes and warrants, which may adversely impact our financial condition.

Our ability to obtain needed financing may be impaired by such factors as capital markets disruptions, both generally and specifically relating to the healthcare industry, and events that have a negative impact on existing and potential investors or funding sources such as the COVID-19 pandemic. If the amount of capital we are able to raise from financing activities, together with our revenues from operations, is not sufficient to satisfy our capital needs we may be required to cease operations.

No guarantee of market acceptance.

Our success is dependent on market acceptance of our hemostatic gauze products. We cannot be certain that healthcare professionals and purchasing decision makers will conclude that our products offer a superior performance or value proposition, in any or all of the target markets we have identified, or that we will attain the level of market acceptance necessary to generate adequate revenues to cover our business costs and generate a return for investors.

We may be dependent upon strategic relationships to conduct our operations and implement our strategy.

Our strategy includes the use of distribution and commercial partnerships to market and sell our hemostatic gauze products. We currently do not have any such strategic relationships. We may not be able to establish these strategic relationships, or if established, we may not be able to maintain them. In addition, the dynamics of our relationships with strategic partners may require us to incur expenses or undertake activities we would not otherwise be inclined to in order to fulfill our obligations to these partners or maintain our relationships. If our strategic relationships are not established or maintained, our business prospects may be limited, which could diminish our ability to conduct our operations. We can provide no assurances that distribution agreements will be entered into on terms satisfactory to us, if at all, or that our operations will be profitable as a result of these distribution agreements.

We could experience difficulties in our supply chain.

The majority of our NORC products are manufactured in the United States to our specifications at a single facility under a service contract. Unforeseen events at this manufacturing location or with this manufacturer may result in a disruption of production that could negatively impact our ability to supply our customers and generate revenues. We own certain specialized production equipment which is installed at this manufacturing location which is not readily available should we need to replace it. While we intend to maintain significant supplies of finished product inventory, any prolonged disruption this facility could have a material adverse impact on our operations and business.

We are currently dependent on one hemostatic gauze product to generate income in the future.

The Company’s hemostatic gauze products are currently our sole source of potential revenue in the future. While we have multiple formats of this product and hope to access new markets upon receipt of a Class III PMA, we cannot provide assurance that our product will be accepted by potential customers or that new, superior hemostatic technologies will not be introduced that negatively impact the market perceptions of our own products. Unless we are able to develop or acquire additional product lines, the failure to develop a commercial market for this product line will materially adversely affect our operations.

Our business may suffer if we do not attract and retain talented personnel.

Our success will depend in large measure on the abilities, expertise, judgment, discretion, integrity and good faith of our management and other personnel in conducting our intended business. In addition, we depend on management and employees to correctly interpret and respond to market data, economic and other conditions to locate and adopt appropriate business opportunities. We presently have a small management team, which we intend to expand in conjunction with our planned operations and growth. We intend to ensure that management and any key employees are appropriately compensated; however, their continued service to the Company cannot be guaranteed. If we are unable to attract and retain additional key management personnel and enter into satisfactory employment and other agreements, our business may be adversely affected.

We may not be able to adequately protect our technologies or intellectual property rights.

Our ability to achieve commercial or strategic success will depend in part on maintaining patent protection and trade secret protection of our technologies as well as successfully defending our intellectual property against third-party challenges. We will only be able to protect our technologies from unauthorized use by third parties to the extent that valid and enforceable patents or trade secrets cover them. Furthermore, the degree of future protection of our proprietary rights is uncertain because legal means afford only limited protection and may not adequately protect our rights or permit us to gain or keep our competitive advantage. Additionally, legal enforcement of intellectual property rights is costly and we may not have the financial resources to take the necessary legal action to protect our rights.

If our intellectual property positions are challenged, invalidated, circumvented, or expire, or if we fail to prevail in future intellectual property litigation, our business could be adversely affected. We have created multiple variations of our gauze product and will protect each of these new generation platforms and product with additional intellectual property. Our success depends in part on our ability to defend our intellectual property rights. The patent positions of pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies can be highly uncertain and often involve complex legal, scientific, and factual questions. Third parties may seek to challenge, invalidate, or circumvent our intellectual property rights. In addition, our patent positions might not protect us against competitors with similar products or technologies because competing products or technologies may not infringe our patents. Also, there are third parties who have patents or pending patent applications that they may claim necessitate payment of a royalty or prevent us from commercializing our patent in certain territories. Patent disputes are frequent, costly and can preclude, delay, or increase the cost of commercialization of products.

We have identified various material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting which could affect our ability to timely and accurately report our results of operations and financial condition. These material weaknesses may not have been fully remediated as of the filing date of this report and we cannot assure you that other material weaknesses will not be identified in the future.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that, as of December 31, 2020, we had material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting and that, as a result, our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective at such date. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that creates a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

In addition, we believe that we continued to have material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting subsequent to December 31, 2020. See “Controls and Procedures” under Item 9A for a detailed discussion of the material weaknesses identified as of December 31, 2020 and possible material weaknesses as of subsequent periods. Although we are in the process of implementing remedial measures to address all of the identified material weaknesses, our assessment of the impact of these measures has not been completed as of the filing date of this report, and we cannot assure you that these measures will be adequate. Moreover, we cannot assure you that additional material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting will not arise or be identified in the future.

As a result, we must continue to improve our operational, information technology, and financial systems, infrastructure, procedures, and controls, as well as continue to expand, train, retain, and manage our employee base. Any failure to do so, or any difficulties we encounter during implementation, could result in additional material weaknesses or in material misstatements in our financial statements. These misstatements could result in a future restatement of our financial statements, could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations, or could cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, leading to a decline in our stock price.

Our independent registered public accounting firm has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. This could make it more difficult for us to raise funds and adversely affect our relationships with creditors, investors and suppliers.

Our auditors believe that substantial doubt exists regarding our ability to remain in business. We cannot provide any assurance that we will in fact operate our business profitably or obtain sufficient financing to sustain our business in the event we are not successful in our efforts to generate sufficient revenue and operating cash flow. The expression of such doubt by our independent registered public accounting firm or our inability to overcome the factors leading to such doubt could have a material adverse effect on our relationships with prospective customers, creditors, investors and suppliers, and therefore could have a material adverse effect on our business.

The healthcare industry is subject to extensive government regulation, which can result in increased costs, delays, limits on its operating flexibility and competitive disadvantages.

The healthcare industry is generally subject to extensive regulatory requirements. Adhering to these requirements generally carries significant costs to industry participants, including our Company. Given our limited financial resources these significant costs may adversely affect our business and financial results. If we are unable to pass on these costs through our product pricing they would negatively impact our profit margin.

Healthcare insurance legislation may lead to unintended adverse effects for businesses involved in our industry. New legislation that gives the Federal government greater regulatory powers may lead to negative consequences for certain aspects of our business. The full scope of the ongoing uncertainty in healthcare related legislation may not be known for several years, making it difficult to predict the future consequences that would create challenges to our Company, or if we can overcome them.

Failure to comply with laws or government regulations could result in penalties.

Certain government requirements for technologies in the healthcare market may require licensure or mandatory minimum standards relating to the provision of products and services. Failure to comply with these requirements could materially affect our ability to expand into new or existing markets. Future regulatory developments may also cause disruptions to our operations.

GENERAL RISK FACTORS

We are subject to the reporting requirements of the federal securities laws, which can be expensive.

We are a public reporting company and, accordingly, subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and other federal and state securities laws, including compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The costs of preparing and filing annual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders increase our operating costs.

It is time consuming, difficult and costly for us to develop and implement the internal controls and reporting procedures required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We may need to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel in order to develop and implement appropriate internal controls and reporting procedures. If we are unable to comply with the internal control’s requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, we may not be able to obtain the independent accountant certifications required by that Act.

Public company compliance requirements may make it more difficult to attract and retain officers and directors.

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act and rules subsequently implemented by the SEC have required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. Compliance with the new rules and regulations increases our operating costs and makes certain activities more time consuming and costly than if we were not a public company. As a public company, these new rules and regulations make it more difficult and expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our Board of Directors or as executive officers.

There exist risks to stockholders relating to dilution: authorization of additional securities and reduction of percentage share ownership following investment.

To the extent that additional shares of common stock are issued, our existing stockholders would experience dilution of their respective ownership interests in the Company. Additionally, if the Company issues a substantial number of shares of common stock in connection with or following an investment, a change in control of the Company may occur which may affect, among other things, the Company’s ability to utilize net operating loss carry forwards, if any. Furthermore, the issuance of a substantial number of shares of common stock may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock and could impair the Company’s ability to raise additional capital through the sale of its equity securities. The Company has in the past and may in the future compensate certain consultants and other service providers using our shares of common stock, which would result in further dilution for our existing stockholders.

Our stock price may be volatile.

The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the following:

	•	changes in the healthcare industry;
	•	competitive pricing pressures;
	•	our ability to obtain working capital financing;
	•	additions or departures of key personnel;
	•	our ability to execute our business plan;
	•	operating results that fall short of expectations;
	•	loss of certain material strategic relationships;
	•	regulatory developments;
	•	economic and other external factors, including among others, effects on the markets stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic; and
	•	period-to-period fluctuations in our financial results.

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 dividends in the past and do not expect to pay dividends in the future. Any return on investment may be limited to changes in the value of our common stock.

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate doing so 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 affecting us at such time as our board of directors may consider relevant. If we do not pay dividends, return on investment will only occur if our stock price appreciates.

There is currently no established market for our common stock, and we cannot ensure that one will ever develop or be sustained.

The Company’s common stock is available for trading on the OTC Pink. Management considers the market for our common stock to be limited. We can provide no assurances that an established trading market for our common stock will exist in the future.

Our common stock is deemed a “penny stock”, which may make it more difficult for our investors to sell their shares.

Our common stock is subject to the “penny stock” rules adopted under Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The penny stock rules apply to companies whose common stock is not listed on a national securities exchange and trades at less than $5.00 per share or that have tangible net worth of less than $5,000,000 ($2,000,000 if the company has been operating for three or more years). These rules require, among other things, that brokers who trade penny stock to persons other than “established customers” complete certain documentation, make suitability inquiries of investors and provide investors with certain information concerning trading in the security, including a risk disclosure document and quote information under certain circumstances. Many brokers have decided not to trade penny stocks because of the requirements of the penny stock rules and, as a result, the number of broker-dealers willing to act as market makers in such securities is limited. If we remain subject to the penny stock rules for any significant period, it could have an adverse effect on the market, if any, for our securities. In as much as our securities are subject to the penny stock rules, investors may find it more difficult to dispose of our securities.

Offers or availability for sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may cause the price of our common stock to decline.

If certain of our stockholders seek to sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market upon the expiration of any holding period under Rule 144, or expiration of lock-up periods applicable to outstanding shares, or issued upon the exercise of outstanding options or warrants, it could create a circumstance commonly referred to as an “overhang” and in anticipation of which the market price of our common stock could fall. The existence of an overhang, whether or not sales have occurred or are occurring, also could make more difficult our ability to raise additional financing through the sale of equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate.

Impacts of COVID-19 to Business and the General Economy

COVID-19 has caused a material and substantial adverse impact on the general economy, the impacts of which are currently not fully known. We are conducting business as usual with some modifications to, employee work locations, among other modifications We have observed other companies taking precautionary and preemptive actions to address COVID-19 and companies may take further actions that alter their normal business operations. 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 or local authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, potential partners, suppliers and stockholders.

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

The Company is utilizing on a temporary basis rent free, as a central mailing address as its principal executive office, space located at 10624 S. Eastern Avenue, Ste. A209, Henderson, NV 89052.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The following material legal proceedings are pending against us:

A Complaint was filed with the United States District Court, Southern District of New York by Steven Safran as Plaintiff against the Company and Douglas Beplate, its CEO, as Defendant. This case was transferred to the United States District Court in Las Vegas, Nevada. Mr. Safran is seeking damages and monies allegedly owed pursuant to an employment agreement of approximately $734,000 and allegedly unpaid loans of $245,824 provided to Defendants. The Company has denied Plaintiff’s allegations and intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit. The parties have held various depositions and the Company made a motion to dismiss which was denied. The Plaintiff filed a motion to amend his complaint and the Company has submitted opposition papers and we are awaiting an order from the Court. A trial is scheduled for August 10, 2021.

In March 2021, the Company received payment of $304,273 from Maxim Group LLC, representing the full settlement payment in accordance with a Settlement Agreement in a previously disclosed arbitration between the Company and Maxim that was settled in December 2019.

Philip Forman, who served in positions as Chairman, a director, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Medical Advisor at various time between 2011 and October 2015, filed a lawsuit against the Company and our Chief Executive Officer, Douglas Beplate, in the United States District Court of the District of Nevada. The claimant has claimed, among other things, that: the June 25, 2015 Amendment to his November 10, 2014 Employment Agreement with the Company, which terminated the Employment Agreement on October 1, 2015, is not valid because of lack of consideration; that a July 22, 2015 Stock Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the claimant sold Company shares issued to him under the Amendment to a third a party is unenforceable (despite the fact that all payment for the shares under the Stock Purchase Agreement was made); that the plaintiff’s 2014 Employment Agreement is enforceable and that he is entitled to cash and stock compensation under that Employment Agreement (without giving regard to the Amendment); that if the Amendment is enforceable, he is entitled to the shares issued under the Amendment (without mention that those shares were sold to a third party under the Stock Purchase Agreement described above); and that the Company and Mr. Beplate defrauded the plaintiff relating to the foregoing. The plaintiff is seeking declaratory judgment regarding the parties’ relative rights under the Employment Agreement, the Amendment and the Stock Purchase Agreement; money damages of no less than $2,795,000; and punitive damages of $8,280,000. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to the matters claimed as well as counterclaims against the claimant. The Company filed a motion to dismiss the plaintiff’s claims which was denied on March 19, 2020. Discovery is now taking place.

FSR Inc. commenced a lawsuit in 2018 against Korsair Holdings A.G. in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, seeking among other claims for relief, rescission of the transfer of 3,050,000 shares of United Health Products that FSR sold to Korsair in 2011. Third-Party Plaintiff, JEC Consulting Associates, LLC as Liquidator of LeadDog Capital L.P., Intervenor (“Intervenor”) in the above matter, filed a third-party complaint against United Health Products, and Douglas Beplate alleging among other things that the Company and Mr. Beplate refused to have the Rule 144 restrictive legend removed from the Korsair certificate held by JEC, and concomitantly fraudulently deprive JEC as Liquidator of LeadDog of the ability to sell the Shares in the open market, knowingly, intentionally and directly causing economic harm to LeadDog Capital L.P. Intervenor as Third Party Plaintiff further alleges that the Company and Mr. Beplate as Third-Party Defendants are not only monetarily liable to Third-Party Plaintiff for compensatory damages of $2,500,000 but should be made to pay exemplary damages in an amount determined by the Court, but not less than an equal amount - $2,500,000. Third-Party Plaintiff demands judgment for the above referenced amounts and for the Court to also declare that the 3,050,000 shares are free trading; that Third-Party Plaintiff’s rights to 2.5 million of the Shares are superior to the claims of Plaintiff FSR; that Plaintiff FSR has no claim to 2.5 million of the 3,050,000 Shares reflected by the Korsair certificate; that the Company and Mr. Beplate are to instruct its current transfer agent to remove the restrictive legend on the Korsair certificate for the Shares; and an order directing the Company and Mr. Beplate to instruct the Company’s transfer agent to exchange the Korsair certificate for new free-trading, unrestricted certificates. The Company believes that it had legal right to decline to instruct the transfer agent to remove the restrictive legend from the Korsair Shares where the ownership of the aforementioned shares have been in dispute and the Korsair shares have not been submitted for transfer to its transfer agent in proper form under the uniform commercial code. The Court granted the motion for a default by FSR, Inc against Korsair Holdings, AG., but denied any claim for relief against UHP. The Court ruled that the SEC must review the claim before the matter can proceed in Court. The SEC has yet to render a determination.

Due to uncertainties inherent in litigation, we cannot predict the outcome of the legal proceedings described herein.

In 2020 the Company commenced the following legal proceeding:

On February 7, 2020, the Company filed the Original Petition for Fraud and Breach of Contract in the Texas District Court for the 215th Judicial District of Harris County against defendants Patterson Companies Inc., Patterson Management, L.P., Patterson Veterinary, Inc. and Patterson Logistics Services, Inc., and Animal Health International, Inc. On March 5, 2020, the defendants removed the case to U.S. District Court for Southern District of Texas. The defendants filed their answer in federal court on March 12, 2020. The original August 25, 2020 pretrial deadlines were extended and we expect the case to be trial ready by the end of 2021.

The defendants filed a Motion for Summary Judgment which was denied by the court on March 11, 2021.

In August 2020, United Health Products filed suit against its former auditors, Haynie & Company, in Utah State Court, asserting claims related to professional negligence and breach of fiduciary duty. Haynie & Company has denied the allegations. The parties are conducting discovery.

Results of Operations years ending December 31, 2020 and 2019

The following table sets forth a summary of certain key financial information for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019:

	2020			2019

Revenue	$	643		$	4,927

Gross profit	$	448		$	3,611

Basic and diluted	$	(0.09	)	$	(0.04	)

Year ended December 31, 2020 versus year ended December 31, 2019

During the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had $643 and $4,927 of revenues, respectively. The decrease in revenues is due to the continued focus, which commenced in 2018, of the Company’s capital and resources towards making our NORC technology and products more commercially viable by seeking to obtain a Class III PMA. The Company is continuing this strategy based on our belief that the greatest value to our shareholders will come from this PMA and, if granted, pursuing opportunities that we anticipate will be available to the Company.

Total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 were $14,849,099 and $6,097,723, respectively. The increase in operating expenses is due primarily to an increase in consulting/professional fees offset by a decrease in research and development expenses. The increase in operating expenses is due primarily to an increase in stock-based compensation expense. The Company recorded $12,420,930 of stock-based compensation related to an amendment to the restricted stock award agreement made during the year. The amendment resulted in the vesting of 7,595,000 of restricted stock unit (“RSU”) awards and the immediate recognition of $5,392,450 of expenses and also $7,028,480 of stock-based compensation due to the amortization of the RSUs that vested on January 1, 2021 compared to stock-based compensation expense of $2,021,000 due to the change in vesting conditions of 2,150,000 shares of common stock previously held in escrow during the year ended December 31, 2019.

In addition, the Company issued 425,000 shares of common stock for services with a value of $301,875 during the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to 1,925,000 shares of common stock for services valued at $1,859,250 during the year ended December 31, 2019.

The increase in stock-based compensation was offset by a decrease in research and development expense of $421,170.

Other income (expense) for 2020 and 2019 was $(862,749) and $(508,183), respectively. The increase in other expense was due to the increase in total interest expense of $38,045 and loss on debt settlement of $316,521. The increase in interest expense is due to the amortization of beneficial conversion features on convertible notes payable and convertible notes payable – related party during the current year totaling $546,228 compared to $508,183 in the prior year. The loss on debt settlement is due to the Company issuing shares of common stock with a fair value of $866,482 for the conversion of $549,567 of convertible notes payable and accrued interest.

Our net loss for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $15,711,400 as compared to a net loss of $6,602,295 for the prior year. The increase in the net loss is due to an increase in stock-based stock compensation of $8,842,555, a decrease in research and development expenses of $421,170 and an increase in the loss on debt settlement of $316,521 compared to the prior year for the reasons described above.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had a negative working capital of $1,054,612. The Company has not yet attained a level of operations, and for the foreseeable future will not be pursuing commercial operations, which will allow it to meet its current overhead expense obligations while it focuses on its strategy of seeking an FDA Class III PMA. The report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our 2020 and 2019 financial statements includes an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. While the Company has funded its initial operations with private placements, and secured loans from related parties, there can be no assurance that adequate financing will continue to be available to the Company and, if available, on terms that are favorable to the Company. Our ability to continue as a going concern is also dependent on many events outside of our direct control, including, among other things, our ability to achieve our business goals and objectives, as well as improvement in the economic climate.

Cash Flows

The Company’s cash on hand as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 was $46,076 and $16,624, respectively.

The following table summarizes selected items from our statements of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019:

Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $1,456,664. This was due to the Company receiving $1,130,696 in proceeds from the sale of stock and receiving a total of $831,730 from related parties offset by repaying $505,762 on related party loans.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $1,752,115. This was due to the Company receiving $1,255,750 in proceeds from the sale of stock and receiving net proceeds of $496,365 from a related party.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Related Parties

Information concerning related party transactions is included in the financial statements and related notes, appearing elsewhere in this annual report on Form 10-K.

Critical Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of its HemoStyp product by applying the following steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.

The Company receives orders for its HemoStyp products directly from its customers. Revenues are recognized based on the agreed upon sales or transaction price with the customer when control of the promised goods are transferred to the customer. The transfer of goods to the customer and satisfaction of the Company’s performance obligation will occur either at the time when products are shipped or when the products arrive and are received by the customer. No discounts were offered by the Company. The Company does not provide an estimate for returns as there is no anticipation for any returns in the normal course of business.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company accounts for share-based compensation under the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. Under the fair value recognition provisions, stock-based compensation expense is measured at the fair value of the consideration received, or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, or liabilities incurred, whichever is more reliably measured. Share-based compensation for all stock-based awards to employees and directors is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period.

The Company accounts for stock compensation arrangements with non-employees in accordance with Accounting Standard Update (ASU) 2018-07, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which requires that such equity instruments are recorded at the value on the grant date.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

The financial statements required by Item 8 can be found beginning on Page F-2 of this report.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of United Health Products, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of United Health Products, Inc. as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficiency, and cash flows for each of the two years in the 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 United Health Products, Inc. as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the 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 entity will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the entity has suffered recurring losses from operations, has negative working capital and operations have not provided cash flows to cover operating expenses or meet current obligations. This raises substantial doubt about its 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.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the entity’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these 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 United Health Products, Inc. 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. United Health Products, Inc. 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 entity’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

Critical audit matters 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. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

UNITED HEALTH PRODUCTS, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2020 AND 2019

Note 1. Description of the Business

United Health Products, Inc. (the “Company”) is a medical product development and solutions company focusing on the wound-care industry. The Company produces an innovative hemostatic gauze product that absorbs exudate (fluids which have been discharged from blood vessels) by forming a gel-like substance upon contact which supports and accelerates the blood coagulation process.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred recurring net losses, has negative working capital and operations have not provided cash flows. Additionally, the Company does not currently have sufficient revenue producing operations to cover its operating expenses and meet its current obligations. In view of these matters, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company intends to finance its future development activities and its working capital needs largely through the sale of equity securities with some additional funding from other sources, including term notes until such time as funds provided by operations are sufficient to fund working capital requirements. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic. As a result, economic uncertainties have arisen which have the potential to negatively impact the Company’s ability to raise funding. Other factors that carry financial implications for the Company could occur although the potential impacts are unknown at this time.

Basis of Presentation

The Company prepares its financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reported period. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, as well as in the healthcare industry, and any other parameters used in determining these estimates, could cause actual results to differ.

Reclassification

Certain account balances from prior periods have been reclassified in these financial statements to conform to current period classifications.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid debt investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

F-6

Fair Value Measurements

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States define fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, the inputs used to measure fair value are prioritized based on a three-level hierarchy. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1. We value assets and liabilities included in this level using dealer and broker quotations, bid prices, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using a method that requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for expected future tax consequences of temporary differences that currently exist between tax bases and financial reporting bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities which is commonly known as the asset and liability method. In assessing the ability to realize deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The Company evaluates its tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are ‘‘more-likely-than-not’’ of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold are recorded as an expense in the applicable year. The Company does not have a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits. Management’s evaluation of uncertain tax positions may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based upon factors including, but not limited to, an on-going analysis of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof, with due consideration given to the fact that tax periods are open to examination by tax authorities.

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company has approximately $17.8 and $15.6 million of net operating loss carry-forwards, respectively, available to affect future taxable income and has established a valuation allowance equal to the tax benefit of the net operating loss carry forwards and temporary differences as realization of the asset is not assured.

Revenue Recognition

F-7

Trade Accounts Receivable and Concentration Risk

We record accounts receivable at the invoiced amount and we do not charge interest. We review the accounts receivable by amounts due from customers which are past due, to identify specific customers with known disputes or collectability issues. In determining the amount of the reserve, we make judgments about the creditworthiness of significant customers based on ongoing credit evaluations. We will also maintain a sales allowance to reserve for potential credits issued to customers. We will determine the amount of the reserve based on historical credits issued.

There was no provision for doubtful accounts recorded at December 31, 2020 and 2019. The Company recorded $0 in bad debt expense for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

For the year ended December 31, 2020 one customer accounted for 100% of the Company’s net revenue.

For the year ended December 31, 2019 one customer accounted for 100% of the Company’s net revenue.

Inventory

Inventory is valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Inventory on the balance sheet consists of raw materials purchased by the Company and finished goods.

	December 31, 2020		December 31, 2019
Raw materials	$	50,654	$	54,774
Finished goods		19,020		22,074
	$	69,674	$	76,848

During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company determined that $6,979 and $0, needed to be impaired and written-off, respectively.

Advertising and Marketing Costs

Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred $206,572 and $214,810 in advertising and marketing costs during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Shipping and Handling Costs

The Company includes shipping and handling cost as part of cost of goods sold.

Research and Development

The Company charges research and development costs to expense when incurred. The Company incurred $245,218 and $666,388 in research and development expenses during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

F-8

Stock Based Compensation

Per Share Information

Basic earnings per share are calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period presented. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. The dilutive effect of potential common shares is not reflected in diluted earnings per share because the Company incurred a net loss for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the effect of including these potential common shares in the net loss per share calculations would be anti-dilutive.

The total potential common shares as of December 31, 2020 include 59,330,000 of restricted stock units and 1,867,500 shares of common stock for convertible notes payable – related party. The total potential common shares as of December 31, 2019 include 50,350,000 of restricted stock units, and 579,556 shares for convertible notes payable – related party.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method. The depreciation and amortization methods are designed to amortize the cost of the assets over their estimated useful lives, in years, of the respective assets as follows:

Equipment

10 years

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Improvements of a major nature are capitalized. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gains or losses are reflected in income.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts on an entity’s own equity.

Under current GAAP, there are five accounting models for convertible debt instruments. ASU 2020-06 removes from U.S. GAAP the separation models for (1) convertible debt with a cash conversion feature and (2) convertible instruments with a beneficial conversion feature. As a result, after adopting the ASU’s guidance, entities will not separately present in equity an embedded conversion feature in such debt. Instead, they will account for a convertible debt instrument wholly as debt, and for convertible preferred stock wholly as preferred stock (i.e., as a single unit of account), unless (1) a convertible instrument contains features that require bifurcation as a derivative under ASC 815 or (2) a convertible debt instrument was issued at a substantial premium. Additionally, for convertible debt instruments with substantial premiums accounted for as paid-in capital, the FASB decided to add disclosures about (1) the fair value amount and the level of fair value hierarchy of the entire instrument for public business entities and (2) the premium amount recorded as paid-in capital.

F-9

ASU 2020-06 will be effective for public business entities that meet the definition of a Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filer, excluding entities eligible to be smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of the adoption of this accounting pronouncement to its financial statements.

The Company considers all new pronouncements and management has determined that there have been no other recently adopted or issued accounting standards that had or will have a material impact on its financial statements.

Equity transactions

Per ASC 718-20-35, the change in vesting conditions resulted in a modification of the stock-based compensation awards. The modification is considered a Type III modification as described in ASC 718-20-55 and resulted in recording $2,021,000 of stock-based compensation expense which was the fair value of the shares on the date of the modification.

In March 2019, the Company granted Mr. Beplate and Louis Schiliro 33,000,000 and 8,000,000 Restricted Stock Units (RSU’s), respectively, which vest and are issuable upon the achievement of certain conditions described in Note 6. These RSU’s were included as part of the Company’s grant of an aggregate of 50,100,000 RSUs to various officers, directors and consultants which all vest on substantially the same terms. The RSUs granted to Mr. Beplate replaced an executive compensation stock bonus package that was granted to Mr. Beplate in December 2018 which had provided that upon the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or other change in control or merger transaction in which the Company is involved, or in the event that no such transaction occurred by December 31, 2019, Mr. Beplate would have been entitled to receive a number of shares equal to 15% post issuance of the then outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock on a fully diluted basis. The December 2018 executive compensation stock bonus package had, in turn, replaced a previously issued 5% stock bonus granted to Mr. Beplate that would have been issuable in the event of a sale of the Company’s assets or change in control or merger transaction, per his services agreement. The 8,000,000 RSU’s granted to Mr. Schiliro replaced 5,000,000 shares of common stock which were previously held in escrow and subsequently cancelled. See “Note 6” regarding the granting of the RSUs.

F-11

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company issued a total of 1,000,000 shares of common stock to directors and officers of the Company and 50,000 shares of common stock to the office administrator, who is a person affiliated with the Company’s former CEO and 50,000 shares to a Technical Product Supervisor, who is the son of the office administrator for services rendered. The shares had a fair market value of $1,063,000.

On July 21, 2020 the Board of Directors approved amendments to the RSU Agreement put in place on March 25, 2019. The approved amendments increased the amount of RSU’s granted to Mr. Beplate from 33,000,000 to 33,800,000, increased the amount of RSU’s granted to Mr. Schiliro from 8,000,000 to 10,000,000, increased the amount of RSU’s granted to Mr. Heaton from 50,000 to 500,000, increased the amount of RSU’s granted to the office administrator, who is a person affiliated with the Company’s CEO from 250,000 to 500,000 and increased the amount of RSU’s granted to the Technical Product Supervisor, who is the son of the office administrator from 250,000 to 500,000.

The July 21 amendment also changed the vesting terms so that 15% of RSUs vested on July 15, 2020, an additional 15% of RSU units upon FDA approval of a PMA Class III awarded to the Company, an additional 20% of RSU units on January 1, 2021 and the balance of all unvested RSU units on the earliest date that (a) the Company achieves $20 million in gross cumulative sales commencing as of January 1, 2020, (b) a Covered Transaction is consummated or (c) a Trigger Event occurs. Each Grantee has the option to delay the Vesting Date of all or part of his RSUs until no later than an event described in (b) or (c) above, by serving written notice to the Company prior to such Vesting Date.

The change in vesting terms resulted in a total of 6,795,000 of the RSU’s vesting on July 15, 2020 with 5,070,00 being issued to Mr. Beplate, 1,500,000 being issued to Mr. Schiliro, 75,000 being issued to Mr. Heaton, 75,000 being issued to the office administrator, who is a person affiliated with the Company’s CEO and 75,000 being issued to the Technical Product Supervisor, who is the son of the office administrator.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company needs to implement disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ‘‘Exchange Act’’), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of December 31, 2020, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an assessment, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b). As of the date of this assessment, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2020.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the interim or annual financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020. In performing its assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, management applied the criteria described in the Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (‘‘COSO - 2013’’).

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

The material weaknesses identified during management’s assessment were the following:

	•	Inadequate corporate governance

	•	Inadequate internal control structure and control environment

	•	Lack of information technology controls

	•	Lack of segregation of duties

	•	Lack of sufficient accounting resources with SEC experience, US generally accepted accounting principles knowledge and tax accounting expertise

These material weaknesses could result in a material misstatement of significant accounts or disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to the Company’s interim or annual financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.

Because of the material weaknesses, management concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020, based on the criteria in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by COSO -2013.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no reported changes in internal control over financial reporting for the year ended December 31, 2020.

FASB ASC Topic 718 requires the company to determine the overall full grant date fair value of the restricted stock awards and options as of the date of grant based upon the Black-Scholes method of valuation which total amounts are set forth in the table above under the year of grant, and to then expense that value over the service period over which the restricted stock awards and options become vested. As a general rule, for time-in-service-based restricted stock awards and options, the company will immediately expense any restricted stock awards and option or portion thereof which is vested upon grant, while expensing the balance on a pro rata basis over the remaining vesting term of the restricted stock awards and options. For a description FASB ASC Topic 718 and the assumptions used in determining the value of the restricted stock awards and options under the Black-Scholes model of valuation, see the notes to the financial statements included with this Form 10-K.

The Plan has not been approved by the Company’s stockholders. The Company approved the issuance of 1,525,000 shares in November 2019 to certain consultants, Officers and Directors. The Company has not issued any options under this 2019 Plan.

Separate from the 2013 Plan and 2019 Plan, the Board of Directors has approved individual Restricted Stock Unit Agreements with certain consultants, Officers and Directors which represented an aggregate of 49,550,000 and 15,250,000 in 2019 and 2020, respectively, which upon vesting will result in the issuance of common shares.

In January 2021, the Board of Directors approved the second amendment to the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement between the Company and its former Chief Executive Officer and current Chairman of the Board, Douglas Beplate in conjunction with Mr. Beplate’s retirement from his day-to-day management role with the Company. The amendment accelerated the vesting and immediately settled his remaining Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) in a total of 28,730,000 restricted shares. Further, as a bonus in recognition of Mr. Beplate’s service to the Company and in recruitment of new executive management, the Company agreed to issue to Mr. Beplate an additional 2,000,000 million restricted shares of common stock.
