Note 1. Description of Business

Description of Business

MusclePharm Corporation, together with its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “MusclePharm”) is a scientifically-driven, performance lifestyle company that develops, markets and distributes branded sports nutrition products and nutritional supplements that are manufactured by the Company’s co-manufacturers. Ourcontract manufacturers. The Company’s portfolio of recognized brands, including MusclePharm, FitMiss and FitMiss,MP Combat Energy is marketed and sold globally. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had the following wholly-owned subsidiary which did not have any operations or assets as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2022: MusclePharm Canada Enterprises Corp.

In 2021, the Company announced its entrance into the functional energy space in collaboration with former Rockstar Energy executives. The Company launched three flavors of MP Combat Energy in September 2021 for domestic distribution and three additional flavors for international distribution. The Company believes the launch of its new energy products, reductions in operating costs and continued focus on gross profit and revenue growth will allow it to ultimately achieve sustained profitability. However, the Company can give no assurances that this will occur, especially with the cost to launch new energy products along with the recent increase in the cost of protein, which may have a material impact on the Company’s profitability. Additionally, the Company’s profitability may be materially impacted by the ability of the Company’s contract manufacturers to meet customers’ demands. Although, the Company believes entering the functional energy space will help to increase sales and gross margin, and reduce exposure to commodity prices, the Company can give no assurances that this will occur. To manage cash flow, the Company has entered into multiple financing arrangements. The entry into the Energy Drink business has created a second segment, which is presented in detail in Note 12.

Information About Our Segments

We are engaged in global sales of products that fall into two operating segments: Protein Products and Energy Drinks. Information regarding our operating segments and geographic and product information is contained in Note 12 to these consolidated financial statements.

Going Concern

The Company has historically incurred significant losses and experienced negative cash flows since inception. As of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the Company had cash of $1.00.5 million, an increase of $0.4 million from March 31, 2021 and a decline of $1.0 million from the December 31, 2020 balance of $2.0 million. As of June 30, 2021, the Company had a working capital deficit of $22.8 36.3million, a stockholders’ deficit of $2638.1 .3 million and an accumulated deficit of $194.8211.8 million resulting from recurring losses from operations. As a result of oura history of losses and financial condition, there is substantial doubt about ourthe Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon it generating profits in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. The Company is evaluating different strategies to obtain financing to fund its operations to cover expenses and focus on achieving a level of revenue adequate to support its current cost structure. Financing strategies may include, but are not limited to, private placementsissuances of capital stock, debt borrowings, partnerships and/or collaborations.

The Company has been focused on cost containment and improving gross margins by focusing on customers with higher margins, reducing product discounts and promotional activity, along with reducing the number of SKU’s and negotiatenegotiating improved pricing for raw materials. In addition, the Company has worked to negotiate lower production costs with its co-manufacturers.contract manufacturers. Although these steps improved gross margins through the first quarter of 2021,2022, with the recent further increases in commodity prices, primarily protein, the company’sCompany’s gross margins have been impacted and will continue to be impacted unless commodity prices return the same levels that were seen in 2020.2021. The Company expects overall margins to improve as we ramp up energy sales with stronger gross margins in the energy drink segment.

In 2021, the Company announced its entrance into the functional energy space with its partnership with a former Rockstar Energy executive. The Company plans to launch 3 new energy products in the summer of 2021. The Company believes with the launch of its new energy products, reductions in operating costs and continued focus on gross profit and top line sales growth will allow it to ultimately achieve sustained profitability. However, the Company can give no assurances that this will occur, especially with the cost to launch new energy products along with the recent increase in the cost of protein, which may have a material impact on the Company’s profitability. Additionally, the Company’s profitability may be materially impacted by the ability of our third-party manufacturers to meet our customers’ demands. Although, the Company believes entering the functional energy space will help to increase sales and gross margin, and reduce exposure to commodity prices, the Company can give no assurances that this will occur. To manage cash flow, the Company has entered into multiple financing arrangements.

COVID-19

The Company’s results of operations are affected by economic conditions, including macroeconomic conditions and levels of business confidence. There continues to be significant volatility and economic uncertainty in many markets and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic contributes to that level of volatility and uncertainty and has created economic disruption. The Company is actively managing its business to respond to the impact. There were no adjustments recorded in the financial statements that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s operations is unknown and will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration of the COVID-19 outbreak, new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, and any additional preventative and protective actions that governments, or the Company, may direct, which may result in an extended period of continued business disruption, reduced customer traffic and reduced operations. Any resulting financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time but may have a material impact on ourthe Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Management continues to monitor the business environment for any significant changes that could impact the Company’s operations. The Company has taken proactive steps to manage costs and discretionary spending, such as remote working and reducing facility related expense.

Recent Accounting PronouncementsLitigation Estimates and Accruals

In the normal course of business or otherwise, the Company may become involved in legal proceedings. The Company will accrue a liability for such matters when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. When only a range of possible loss can be established, the most probable amount in the range is accrued. If no amount within this range is a better estimate than any other amount within the range, the minimum amount in the range is accrued. The accrual for a litigation loss contingency might include, for example, estimates of potential damages, outside legal fees and other directly related costs expected to be incurred. The Company provides disclosures for material contingencies when there is a reasonable possibility that a loss or an additional loss may be incurred. In assessing whether a loss is a reasonable possibility, the Company may consider the following factors, among others: the nature of the litigation, claim or assessment, available information, opinions or views of legal counsel and other advisors, and the experience gained from similar cases.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Income tax expense includes the current tax liability from operations and the change in deferred income taxes during the year. Interest income, interest expense and penalties associated with income taxes are reflected in (Benefit) provision for income taxes on the consolidated statements of operations. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

A valuation allowance is required to be established unless management determines that it is more likely than not that the Company will ultimately realize the tax benefit associated with a deferred tax asset. The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not to be sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely to be realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments(“ (“ASU 2016-13”), which requires the measurement of all expected credit losses of financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Financial institutions and other organizations will now use forward-looking information to better inform their credit loss estimates. In addition, the ASU amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. ASU 2016-13 is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU may have on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting (“ASU 2020-04”). The amendments in this ASU apply only to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate that is expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The amendments in this update provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The expedients and exceptions provided by the amendments do not apply to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022, that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. The amendments in this ASU are effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020, through December 31, 2022. The Company has not modified any material contracts due to reference rate reform. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements for all future transactions affected by reference rate reform during the time permitted.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 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). The ASU eliminates the beneficial conversion and cash conversion accounting models for convertible instruments. It also amends the accounting for certain contracts in an entity’s own equity that are currently accounted for as derivatives because of specific settlement provisions. In addition, the new guidance modifies how particular convertible instruments and certain contracts that may be settled in cash or shares impact the diluted EPS computation. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but not earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The FASB also specified that an entity should adopt the guidance as of the beginning of its annual fiscal year and is not permitted to adopt the guidance in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact this ASU may have on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-04, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt-Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The ASU addresses issuer’s accounting for certain modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options. This amendment is effective for all entities, for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. EarlyThere has not been a significant impact from the adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impactof this ASU may have on itsthe consolidated financial statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting PronouncementsReclassifications

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which was expected to reduce cost and complexity related to the accounting for income taxes. The ASU removes specific exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 in U.S. GAAP. It eliminates the need for an organization to analyze whether the following apply in a given period: exception to the incremental approach for intra-period tax allocation; exceptions to accounting for basis differences when there are ownership changes in foreign investments; and exception in interim period income tax accounting for year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated losses. The ASU also simplifies U.S. GAAP for: franchise taxes that are partially based on income; transactions with a government that result in a step up in the tax basis of goodwill; separate financial statements of legal entities that are not subject to tax; and enacted changes in tax laws in interim periods. The Company adopted this ASU effective January 1, 2021, with certain provisions applied retrospectively and other provisions applied prospectively. Adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact to the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, statements of operations, or cash flows.
