Fuse Medical, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) was initially incorporated in 1968 as American Metals Service, Inc., is a ~~manufacturer~~Florida corporation. In July 1999, American Metals Service, Inc. changed its name to GolfRounds.com, Inc. and ~~national distributor~~was redomiciled to Delaware through a merger. Effective May 28, 2014, GolfRounds.com, Inc. amended its certificate of ~~medical devices~~incorporation to change its name to Fuse Medical, Inc., and ~~surgical implants~~Fuse Medical, LLC, an unrelated entity, merged with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fuse Medical, Inc., with Fuse Medical, LLC surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fuse Medical, Inc. The transaction was accounted for ~~the orthopedic market.~~as a reverse merger. The Company was the legal acquirer, and Fuse Medical, LLC was deemed the accounting acquirer. During 2015, certificates of termination were filed for Fuse Medical, LLC and its two subsidiaries.

On December 19, 2016, the Change-in-Control Date, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement by and between the Company, NC 143 which is controlled by Mr. Brooks, the Company’s Chairman of the Board and President; and RMI, which is owned and controlled by Mr. Reeg, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Secretary. The closing of the Stock Purchase Agreement resulted in a change-in-control of the Company whereby Mr. Brooks and Mr. Reeg beneficially acquired approximately 61.4% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, immediately after the Change-in-Control Date.

On December 31, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of CPM Medical Consultants, LLC (“CPM”) ~~in December 2017~~pursuant to the CPM Acquisition Agreement (the “CPM Acquisition”)~~, in which~~. Subsequent to the Change-in-Control Date, CPM and Company ~~was the legal acquirer and CPM was deemed the accounting acquirer. In~~operations are consolidated. On August 1, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of Palm Springs Partners, LLC d/b/a Maxim Surgical (“Maxim” and such transactions the “Maxim Acquisition”)~~. CPM and, until its dissolution, Maxim survived as the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries and subsequent~~, pursuant to the ~~completion~~Maxim Purchase Agreement. As of ~~each acquisition, CPM,~~the Maxim Closing Date, Maxim and Company operations are consolidated. Maxim was subsequently dissolved and terminated on December 20, 2019 December 20, 2019.

The Company is a manufacturer, distributor, and wholesaler of medical device implants, offering a broad portfolio of orthopedic implants and biologics including: (i) internal and external fixation products; (ii) upper and lower extremity plating and total joint reconstruction implants; (iii) soft tissue fixation and augmentation for sports medicine procedures; (iv) spinal implants for trauma, degenerative disc disease and deformity indications; and (v) a wide array of osteo-biologics and regenerative products, which include human allografts, substitute bone materials, tendons, and regenerative tissues. All of the Company’s medical devices are approved by the FDA for sale in the United States, and all of the Company’s Biologics suppliers are licensed tissue banks accredited by the American Association of Tissue Banks.

The Company’s broad portfolio of Orthopedic Implants and Biologics provide high-quality products to assist surgeons with positive patient outcomes and cost-effective solutions for its customers, which include hospitals, medical facilities, and sub-distributors. The Company operates under exclusive and non-exclusive agreements with certain vendors and supply partners in the geographic territories the Company serves.

The Company continuously reviews and expands its product lines to ensure that they offer a comprehensive, high-quality and cost-effective selection of Orthopedic Implants and Biologics so that the Company can be more relevant to its customer needs while continuing to grow its existing customer base. Additionally, the Company continues to grow its manufacturing operations, both by internal product development as well as the acquisition of existing FDA cleared devices.

The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein reflect all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and reclassifications and non-recurring adjustments) which, in the opinion of the Company, are ordinary and necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures required under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company believes the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, was derived from the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2021~~2022 (“~~2021~~2022 Annual Report”), filed with the SEC pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d)

under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), on ~~March 31, 2022.~~April 14, 2023. These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the ~~2021~~2022 Annual Report.

The results of operations for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year or for any other period as the Company has historically experienced seasonal trends with greater revenue and volume between the last two calendar quarters compared to the first two calendar quarters of the year.

The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, CPM. Intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The preparation of the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the Company’s reported amounts in the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates on the accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of inventories, the Company’s effective income tax rate, the fair value calculations of stock-based compensation, goodwill, finite lived intangibles and the earn-out (“Earn-Out”) liability.

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 280, “Segment Reporting,” the Company uses the management approach for determining its reportable segments. The management approach is based upon the way that management reviews performance and allocates resources. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer serves as the Company’s chief operating decision maker, and the management team reviews operating results on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating the financial performance of the Company. The Company has integrated the operations of CPM and, prior to its dissolution, Maxim. Accordingly, the Company has determined that it has one operating segment and, therefore, one reporting segment.

Long term accounts receivable reflects Cases where the patient has obtained a letter of protection, (“LOP”). A LOP is a contract that provides that the medical providers will be paid from any proceeds received from settlement of litigation of the underlying cause of action with respect to the event that necessitated medical goods and services. Once the medical provider receives payment, then the medical provider pays the Company’s invoice, which payment is generally greater than 365 days from date of service. The LOP provides medical providers with greater certainty of full payment.

Medical ~~instrument depreciation~~instruments were reported in the quarters of 2022 as fixed assets in error. The error was ~~previously reported~~corrected in the annual 2022 10-K as a component of the cost of revenues inconsistent with prior years.The effect of the ~~Company’s accompanying consolidated~~error corrections on the prior periods has been determined to be immaterial, however, the Company has labeled the column headings for the prior periods as “revised.” For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the financial statements of ~~operations. Medical instruments~~the line items affected by the revision are orthopedic devices that are utilized in all cases where our Orthopedic Implants are implanted. Subsequent to December 31, 2021, the Company began depreciating these medical instruments over 3 years and have now reclassed this depreciation expense to depreciation and amortization in the accompanying consolidated statementsas follows:

Loss per common share, basic is calculated by dividing the net income/(loss) attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common stock, par value $0.01 (“Common Stock”), outstanding during the period, without consideration of Common Stock equivalents. Shares of restricted stock are included in the basic weighted-average number of Common Stock outstanding from the time they vest.

Diluted loss per common share is computed by dividing net income/(loss) by the weighted-average number of Common Stock equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury stock method. For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, ~~and 2021,~~ the Company excluded the effects of outstanding stock options, convertible notes and, to the extent vested, restricted stock as their effects were antidilutive due to the Company’s operating loss during these periods. (See Note 9, “Stockholders’ Equity” for the terms and conditions of restricted stock).

Fair value is 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. The Company classifies assets and liabilities recorded at fair value under the fair value hierarchy based upon the observability of inputs used in valuation techniques. Observable inputs (highest level) reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs (lowest level) reflect internally developed market assumptions. The fair value measurements are classified under the following hierarchy:

Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted market prices (unadjusted) for identical assets and liabilities in active markets;

Level 2—Observable inputs, other than quoted market prices, that are either directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace for identical or similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets and liabilities; and

Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity that are significant to the fair value of assets or liabilities.

In connection with the CPM Acquisition, the Company initially recorded a $19,244,543 liability related to the Earn-Out portion of the purchase consideration. The Company has classified the Earn-Out liability as a Level 3 liability and the fair value of the Earn-Out liability is evaluated each reporting period and changes in its fair value are included in the Company’s earnings. The Earn-Out payments are based on the financial performance of the Company between the period of January 1, 2018, and December 31, 2034. The base amount of the Earn-Out is up to $16,000,000 with an additional bonus payment up to $10,000,000. The payments of the base and bonus Earn-Out amounts are subject to the Company meeting certain earnings thresholds as detailed in the CPM Acquisition Agreement.

The fair value of the Earn-Out liability was calculated using the Monte Carlo simulation, which was then applied to estimated Earn-Out payments with a discount rate of three percent (3%). To determine the fair value of the Earn-Out liability, the Company’s management evaluates assumptions that require significant judgement. Significant assumptions used for estimating the Earn-Out liability included: (i) Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) margins increasing from one percent (1%) to ten percent (10%) over the next four years; and (ii) revenue growth of between approximately two percent (2%) to four percent (4%) over the next five years, and between approximately two percent (2%) and four percent (4%) thereafter.

The Earn-Out liability, which represents contingent consideration associated with the CPM Acquisition, is recorded as a liability. This liability is subject to re-measurement to fair value at each reporting date until the contingency is resolved and the changes in fair value are recognized in the consolidated statements of operations at each reporting period.

The Earn-Out was remeasured to fair value under the probability weighted income approach. As a result, the fair value of the Earn-Out liability was reduced by $4,108,134 from $11,593,832 to $7,485,698 in 2022 and reduced by $342,168 from $11,936,000 to $11,593,832 in 2021 ~~and increased by $290,635 from $11,645,365 to $11,936,000 in 2020~~ and reflected as “Change in fair value of contingent purchase consideration” on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

There was no change in the Earn-Out liability for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, and there were no significant changes in the Level 3 inputs from those utilized at December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. The required earnings thresholds have not been met from inception of the agreements through ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, and as such, there have been no payments required for either the base or bonus Earn-Out tranches.

The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The recorded values of notes payable approximate their respective fair values based upon their effective interest rates.

The Company considers highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents at ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and December 31, ~~2021.~~2022. The Company’s cash is concentrated in one large financial institution. The amount of cash held at the financial institution may at times exceed federally insured limits of $250,000 per financial institution. The Company has not experienced any financial institution losses from inception through ~~September 30, 2022.~~March 31, 2023. As of ~~September 30, 2022 and December~~March 31, ~~2021,~~2023 there were deposits of ~~$294,225 and $594,536, respectively,~~$268,645 which were greater than federally insured limits.

Accounts receivable are non-interest bearing and are stated at gross invoice amounts less an allowance for doubtful accounts receivable and an allowance for contractual discount pricing. Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition, industry reputation, and other factors considered by the Company. The Company generally does not require collateral or

other security interest to support accounts receivable. Based on trends and specific factors, the customer’s credit terms may be modified, including required payment upon delivery.

The Company performs regular on-going credit evaluations of its customers as deemed relevant. As events, trends, and circumstances warrant, the Company estimates the amounts that are more likely than not to be uncollectible. These amounts are recognized as bad debt expense and are reflected within selling, general, administrative and other expenses on the Company’s accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

When accounts are deemed uncollectible, they are often referred to the Company’s outside legal firm for litigation. Accounts deemed uncollectible are written-off in the period when the Company has exhausted its efforts to collect overdue and unpaid receivables or otherwise has evaluated other circumstances that indicate that the Company should abandon such efforts. Accounts deemed uncollectible are removed from the Company’s accounts receivable portfolio, with a corresponding offset to the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable. The Company may record additional allowances for doubtful accounts based on known trends and expectations to ensure the Company’s accounts receivable portfolio is recorded at net realizable value. Specific allowances are re-evaluated and adjusted as additional facts and information become available. Previously written-off accounts receivable subsequently collected are recognized as a reduction of bad debt expense when funds are received.

The Company estimates its allowance for contractual discount pricing, by evaluating specific accounts where information indicates the customer is offered contractual pricing and discount allowances. In these arrangements, the Company uses assumptions and judgement, based on the best available facts and circumstances to record a specific allowance for the amounts due from those customers. The allowance is offset by a corresponding reduction to revenue. These specific allowances are re-evaluated, analyzed, and adjusted as additional information becomes available to determine the total amount of the allowance. The Company may record additional allowances based on trends and expectations to ensure the Company’s accounts receivable portfolio is recorded at net realizable value.

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value (first-in, first-out) which includes an allowance for slow-moving inventory, expired inventory, and inventory obsolescence. Inventories consist entirely of finished goods and include internal and external fixation products; upper and lower extremity plating and total joint reconstruction; soft tissue fixation and augmentation for sports medicine procedures; spinal implants for trauma, degenerative disc disease, and deformity indications (collectively, “Orthopedic Implants”) and osteo-biologics and regenerative tissue which include human allografts, substitute bone materials, tendons, as well as amniotic tissues (collectively, “Biologics”). The Company reviews the market value of inventories whenever

events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of inventories may not be recoverable from the estimated future sales price less cost of disposal and normal gross profit. In cases where the market values are less than the carrying value, a write-down is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the market value of inventories.

Property and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets per the following table. Expenditures for additions and improvements are capitalized, while repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment annually or whenever changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset might not be recoverable.

Upon the retirement or disposition of property and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation is removed. A gain is recorded when consideration received is more than the disposed asset’s cost, net of depreciation, and a loss is recorded when consideration received is less than the disposed asset’s cost, net of depreciation.

The Company reviews other long-lived assets for indicators of impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The evaluation is performed at the lowest level of identifiable cash flows, which is at the individual asset level or the asset group level. The undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the related assets are estimated over their useful life based on updated projections. If the evaluation indicates that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable, any potential impairment is measured based upon the fair value of the related assets or asset group as determined by an appropriate market appraisal or other valuation technique. Assets classified as held for sale, if any, are recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

Goodwill is determined based on an acquisition purchase price in excess of the fair value of identified net assets acquired. Intangible assets with lives restricted by contractual, legal, or other means are amortized over their useful lives.

Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested in the fourth quarter each year for impairment, or more frequently if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying amount. The Company performs its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value.

ASC 350-30-35-18, “Intangible assets not subject to amortization,” indicates that an intangible asset that is not subject to amortization shall be tested for impairment annually and more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the asset is impaired. The Company’s 510(k) intangible asset has an indefinite life. The Company does not believe that a triggering event has occurred as of ~~September 30, 2022.~~March 31, 2023.

The Company’s intangible assets subject to amortization consist primarily of acquired non-compete agreements, funds to secure the Company’s Credit and Security Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with eCapital Healthcare Corp. f/k/a CNH Finance Fund I, L.P., and customer relationships. Amortization expense is calculated using the straight-line method over the asset’s expected useful life.

The Company’s revenues are generated from the sales of Orthopedic Implants and Biologics to support orthopedic surgeries. The Company obtains purchase orders from its customers for the sale of its products, which set forth the general terms and conditions including line item pricing and payment terms (generally due upon receipt). The Company recognizes revenue when its customers obtain control over the assets (generally when the title passes upon shipment or when a product is utilized in a surgery), and it is

probable that the Company will collect substantially all the amounts due. Individual promised goods are the Company’s only performance obligation.

Due to the nature of its products, the Company’s product returns have been historically immaterial.

The Company includes shipping and handling fees in net revenues. Shipping and handling costs are associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer and are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in cost of goods sold on the Company’s accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The Company measures sales volume based on medical procedures in which the Company’s products are sold and used (“Cases”). The Company considers Cases resulting from direct sales to medical facilities to be retail cases (“Retail Cases”) and Cases resulting from sales to third parties, such as non-medical facilities, distributors, or sub-distributors, to be wholesale cases (“Wholesale Cases”). Some of the Company’s sales for Wholesale Cases are on a consignment basis with a third party. When consigned, the revenue is not recorded until the device is implanted in a patient during surgery. In the Company’s industry, Retail Cases are typically sold at higher price points than Wholesale Cases, resulting in greater revenue and gross profit per Case.

Cost of revenues consists of (i) cost of goods sold, (ii) freight and shipping costs for items sold to customers, (iii) cost of storage, (iv) inventory shrink, and (v) an estimate for slow-moving inventory, expired inventory, and inventory obsolescence.

As a result of the CPM Acquisition, the Company became the sole managing member of CPM and as a result, began consolidating the financial results of CPM. CPM is treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal and most applicable state and local income tax purposes. As a disregarded entity, CPM is not subject to U.S. federal and most applicable state and local income tax purposes. Any taxable income or loss generated by CPM is included in the taxable income or loss of the Company. As a result of the Maxim Acquisition, the Company and Maxim will elect to file a consolidated tax return for the period after acquisition.

The Company uses the asset and liability method to compute the differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and the related financial amounts. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that more likely than not will be realized. The Company has deferred tax assets and liabilities that reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Deferred tax assets are subject to periodic recoverability assessments. Realization of the deferred tax assets, net of deferred tax liabilities, is principally dependent upon achievement of projected future taxable income.

The Company records a liability for uncertain tax positions when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. As of March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, the Company had no liabilities for uncertain tax positions. The Company's policy is to recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters as a component of income tax expense. The Company continually evaluates expiring statutes of limitations, audits, proposed settlements, changes in tax law, and new authoritative rulings.

Stock-based compensation expense is measured at the grant date fair value of the award and is expensed over the requisite service period. For employee stock-based awards, the Company calculates the fair value of the award on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Determining the fair value of stock-based awards at the grant date under this model requires judgment, including estimating volatility, employee stock option exercise behaviors, and forfeiture rates. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent the Company's best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment. For non-employee stock-based awards, the Company calculates the fair value of the award on

the date of grant in the same manner as employee awards, however, the awards are revalued at the end of each reporting period and the pro-rata compensation expense is adjusted accordingly until such time the non-employee award is fully vested, at which time the total compensation recognized to date shall equal the fair value of the stock-based award as calculated on the measurement date, which is the date at which the award recipient’s performance is complete. The estimation of stock-based awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent actual results or updated estimates differ from original estimates, such amounts are recorded as a cumulative adjustment in the period estimates are revised.

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standard Updates (“ASU”) issued, both effective and not yet effective.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC did not or are not believed by the Company to have a material impact on the Company's present or future consolidated financial statements.

Company’s intangible assets subject to amortization consist primarily of acquired non-compete agreements, funds to secure the Credit Agreement with eCapital Healthcare Corp. f/k/a CNH Finance Fund I, L.P., and customer relationships.

On December 29, 2017, the Company became party to the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility (“RLOC”) with ZB, N.A., d/b/a Amegy Bank (“Amegy Bank”). The RLOC established an asset-based senior secured revolving credit facility in the amount of $5,000,000.

On December 14, 2021, the Company entered into the Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with eCapital Healthcare Corp. f/k/a CNH Finance Fund I, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Lender”). The Credit Agreement provides for a secured revolving credit facility maturing on January 1, 2025 (the “Facility”) with an initial maximum principal in the amount of $5,000,000. Borrowings under the Facility are subject to a borrowing base as set forth in the Credit Agreement.

The Company used borrowings under the Facility to repay in full (i) the Amended and Restated Business Loan Agreement, dated December 31, 2017, among ZB, N.A. (d/b/a Amegy Bank) and the Company and CPM (the “Borrowers”), as amended, and (ii) the U.S. Small Business Administration Loan Authorization and Agreement, dated May 12, 2020, between the Company and the U.S. Small Business Association, as amended. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement may be used for payment of fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Credit Agreement and working capital for the Borrowers and their subsidiaries.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a floating rate, which will be at the Prime Rate plus 1.75%. Under the Credit Agreement, certain fees are payable by the Borrowers as set forth in the Credit Agreement.

The obligations of the Borrowers with respect to the Credit Agreement are secured by a pledge of substantially all of the personal property assets of the Borrowers, including accounts receivables, deposit accounts, intellectual property, investment property, inventory, equipment and equity interests in their respective subsidiaries.

The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ ability to incur additional debt, grant or permit additional liens, make investments and acquisitions, merge or consolidate with others, dispose of assets, pay dividends and distributions, pay subordinated indebtedness and enter into affiliate transactions. In addition, the Credit Agreement contains financial covenants requiring the Company on a consolidated basis to maintain, as of the last day of each calendar month (i) a current ratio of not less than 1.0 to 1.0, (ii) a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.0 to 1.0, (iii) a loan turnover rate of not greater than 60, and (iv) minimum liquidity of not less than $175,000, provided that if the Borrowers comply with the fixed charge coverage ratio for twelve consecutive months, the minimum liquidity covenant shall cease to be effective. The Credit Agreement also includes events of default customary for facilities of this type and upon the occurrence of any such event of default, all outstanding loans under the Facility may be accelerated and/or the Lender’s commitments terminated.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the Borrowers. These representations and warranties have been made solely for the benefit of the Lender and such representations and warranties should not be relied on by any other person, including investors. In addition, such representations and warranties (i) have been qualified by disclosures made to the Lender in connection with the agreement, (ii) are subject to the materiality standards contained in the agreement which may differ from what may be viewed as material by investors and (iii) were made only as of the date of the agreement or such other date as is specified in the Credit Agreement.

On March 22, 2023, we executed the First Amendment to the Credit Agreement with eCapital Healthcare Corp. f/k/a CNH (the “First Amendment”). The First Amendment (i) waived the fixed charge coverage ratio (FCCR) under the Credit Agreement for the testing period then ending February 28, 2023, and (ii) amended the FCCR test from a trailing twelve-month test to a trailing three month test (iii) waive the minimum liquidity covenant defaults for December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2023.

The foregoing description does not constitute a complete summary of the terms of the Credit Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.45 to our 2021 Annual Report.

Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Company had an outstanding balance of ~~$2,044,606~~$1,729,327 and $1,912,429 as of ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, ~~and had reached the borrowing limit based on the Company’s borrowing base limitations.~~respectively. In preparation of the Credit Agreement, the Company incurred ~~$240,858~~$236,358 of costs that have been allocated to intangible assets and will be amortized over the life of the Credit Agreement. Interest expense incurred on the Credit Agreement was ~~$95,905~~$45,885 for the ~~year~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and is reflected in interest expense on the Company’s accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Accrued interest on the Credit Agreement as of ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 was ~~$31,940,~~$28,051, and is reflected in accrued expenses on the Company’s accompanying consolidated balance sheets. At ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, the effective interest rate was ~~6.15%~~9.50%.

During July 2016 through October 2016, the Company obtained three working capital loans from NC 143 and RMI in the aggregate amount of $150,000 in exchange for convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) bearing ten percent (10%) interest per annum until December 31, 2016, the maturity date, and eighteen percent (18%) interest per annum for periods subsequent to the maturity date. The Notes remain outstanding, and principal and interest are due and payable, upon demand of the payee and at the holder’s sole discretion. The Notes’ holders have the right to convert all or any portion of the then unpaid principal and interest balance into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.08 per share. As of March 31, 2023, the ending balance was $150,000.

On May 6, 2020, the Company borrowed $180,000 from NC 143 and $20,000 from RMI, in exchange for two promissory notes which are unsecured, and bear interest at 0.25% per annum until May 6, 2022, the maturity date, and 10.0% per annum after the maturity date, if not paid in full. Principal and interest are due and payable on the maturity date, provided, however, any payment of principal and interest on the loans is subordinated to payment of all indebtedness under the Credit Agreement. On ~~March 25, 2022,~~April 13, 2023, the two promissory notes were amended to extend the maturity date from May 6, ~~2022,~~2023, to May 6, 2024. As of March 31, 2023, the ending balance was $200,000.

During the three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, ~~and 2021,~~ interest expense of ~~$6,930~~$6,783 and $ 6,930, respectively, is reflected in interest expense on the Company’s accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, interest expense of $20,570 and $20,570,$6,783, respectively, is reflected in interest expense on the Company’s accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, and December 31, ~~2021,~~2022, accrued interest was ~~$116,476~~$175,289 and ~~$141,004,~~$168,507, respectively, which is reflected in accrued expenses on the Company’s accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

On April 11, 2020, the Company received approval from the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) to fund the Company’s request for a loan under the Payroll Protection Program (“PPP Loan”) created as part of the recently enacted Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) administered by the SBA. In connection with the PPP Loan, the Company entered into a promissory note in the principal amount of $361,400. In accordance with the requirements of the CARES Act, the Company used the proceeds from the PPP Loan primarily for payroll costs. The PPP Loan was scheduled to mature on April 11, 2022, had a 1.00% interest rate, and was subject to the terms and conditions applicable to all loans made pursuant to the PPP. The Company applied for and received forgiveness for the total amount of the PPP Loan during the second quarter of 2021.

On May 12, 2020, the Company executed the standard loan documents (“SBA Loan Agreement”) required for securing a loan from the SBA under its Economic Injury Disaster Loan (“EIDL”) assistance program in light of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business (the “EIDL Loan”). Pursuant to the SBA Loan Agreement, the principal amount of the EIDL Loan was $150,000, with proceeds to be used for working capital purposes. Interest accrued at the rate of 3.75% per annum. Installment payments, including principal and interest, were due monthly beginning May 12, 2021 (twelve months from the date of the SBA Loan Agreement) in the amount of $731. The balance of principal and interest was payable thirty years from the date of the SBA Loan Agreement.

EIDL Loan interest expense incurred for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was approximately zero while recording interest income of approximately $5,135 for the three months ended September 30, 2021, and is reflected in interest expense on the Company’s accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. EIDL Loan interest expense incurred for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was approximately zero while recording interest income of approximately $2,229 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, and is reflected in interest expense on the Company’s accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations.

On September 24, 2021, the Company executed the standard loan documents with the SBA for an amended and restated loan and authorization and agreement (“A&R SBA Loan Agreement”) required for securing an increase in the Company’s Original Note from the SBA EIDL Loan. Pursuant to the A&R SBA Loan Agreement, the principal amount for the EIDL Loan was increased by $350,000 to $500,000. Interest accrued at the rate of 3.75% per annum.

The Company used borrowings under the Credit Agreement, as discussed in Note 5, to repay in full (i) the Amended and Restated Business Loan Agreement, dated December 31, 2017, among ZB, N.A. (d/b/a Amegy Bank) and the Borrowers as amended, and (ii) EIDL Loan.

The 2018 Amended and Restated Equity Incentive Plan of Fuse Medical, Inc. (“2018 Equity Plan”) is the Company’s stock-based compensation plan, which the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) adopted on April 5, 2017, and subsequently amended and restated on December 13, 2018. The 2018 Equity Plan provides for the granting of equity awards, including qualified incentive and non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation awards, and restricted stock awards to employees, directors, consultants, and advisors. Awards granted pursuant to the 2018 Equity Plan are subject to a vesting schedule set forth in individual agreements.

The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based compensation utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Black-Scholes option pricing is calculated using several variables, including the expected option term, expected volatility of the Company’s stock price over the expected option term, expected risk-free interest rate over the expected option term, expected dividend yield rate over the expected option term, and an estimate of expected forfeiture rates. The Company believes this valuation methodology is appropriate for estimating the fair value of stock options granted to employees and directors, which are subject to ASC Topic 718 requirements. The Company estimates of fair value may not be reflective of actual future values or amounts ultimately realized by recipients of these grants. The Company recognizes compensation on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each award.

The Company utilizes the simplified method to estimate the expected life for stock options granted to employees, as the Company does not have sufficient historical data regarding stock option exercises. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yields with terms equivalent to the expected life of the related option at the time of the grant. Dividend yield is based on historical trends. While the Company believes these estimates are reasonable, the compensation expense recorded would increase if the expected life was increased, a higher expected volatility was used, or if the expected dividend yield increased.

The Company made an accounting policy election to account for forfeitures when they occur, versus estimating the number of awards that are expected to vest, in accordance with ASU 2016-09.

The Board did not grant any non-qualified stock option awards (“NQSOs”) for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, and ~~2021.~~2022. For the three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022 ~~and 2021~~ the Company amortized ~~$4,148~~zero and $35,945, respectively, relating to the vesting of stock options which is included in selling, general, administrative, and other expenses on the Company’s accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021 the Company amortized $21,094 and $221,968,$12,844, respectively, relating to the vesting of stock options which is included in selling, general, administrative, and other expenses on the Company’s accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company will recognize ~~$1,758 as an~~no expense in future periods as the stock options vest. The Company recognizes stock compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each award, which are subject to a vesting schedule as set forth in individual agreements.

A summary of the Company’s stock option activity for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, is presented below:

The non-vested restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), as of ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, were granted to the Company’s Board members as compensation. These awards vest only upon: (i) the occurrence of one of the Accelerating Events: (a) a Change in Control (as defined in an RSA Agreement); or (b) listing of the Company’s Common Stock on either NYSE or NASDAQ Stock Market; and (ii) the director’s delivery to the Company a Notice of Acceleration of Vesting (as defined in an RSA Agreement), within the Acceleration Notice Period (as defined in an RSA Agreement).

As of ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2023, and 2022, ~~and 2021,~~ it was not probable that the performance conditions on the outstanding RSAs would be met, therefore, no expense has been recorded for these awards for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023 and ~~2021.~~2022.

There were no RSA’s that were granted, exercised, or forfeited during the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2022.~~March 31, 2023.

A valuation allowance is established if it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company recorded a valuation allowance totaling ~~$96,781~~$47,956 for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023, due to the uncertainty of realization. Management believes that based upon the history of losses that the Company has incurred to date and its projection of future taxable operating income for the foreseeable future, it is more likely than not that the Company will not be able to realize the tax benefit associated with deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance established as of ~~September 30, 2022~~March 31, 2023, was ~~$2,343,673.~~$2,506,952.

At ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, the Company estimates it has approximately ~~$7,407,379~~$8,330,025 of net operating loss carryforwards which ~~$2,295,904~~$2,874,293 will expire during ~~2022~~2023 through 2038. Under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("IRC Section 382"), a corporation that undergoes an "ownership change", as defined therein, is subject to limitation on its use of pre-change tax attributes carryforward to offset future taxable income. The Company completed a 382 study and determined that there were changes in ownership in prior years which limited the NOL from 2013 and earlier, and 2014 through 2016. The 382 limitation mathematically precludes the use of approximately ~~$1,567,395~~$2,963,968 of net operating loss carryforwards, therefore, the deferred net operating loss carryover asset excludes the portion of net operating loss that are mathematically excluded from future use by the Company.

The Company believes its tax positions will more likely than not be upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for unrecognized tax positions. As of ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, all the tax years remained open to examination for three years from the tax year in which net operating losses are utilized. The Company was not subject to examination by any income taxing authority as of ~~September 30, 2022.~~March 31, 2023.

A reconciliation of income tax computed at the U.S. statutory rate to the effective income tax rate is as follows:

	Nine Months Ended		Three Months Ended
	September 30, 2022	September 30, 2021	March 31, 2023	March 31, 2022
Expected U.S. federal incomes as statutory rate	21.0%	21.0%	21.0%	21.0%
Gain on Payroll Protection Loan	0.0%	6.2%	0.0%	0.0%
Permanent differences	0.0%	0.0%	0.0%	0.0%
State and local income taxes, net of federal benefit	-3.1%	-0.8%	-2.0%	-1.1%
Change in deferred tax asset valuation allowance	-21.8%	-27.4%	-21.5%	-21.3%
Effective tax rate	-3.9%	-1.0%	-2.5%	-1.4%

Our effective income tax rates for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022 were -2.5% and ~~September 30, 2021 were -3.9% and -1%~~-1.4%, respectively. This decrease from prior period is driven by the valuation allowance allocated to the deferred tax asset for the current period.

For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, ~~and 2021,~~ the following significant customers had an individual percentage of total revenues equaling ten percent (10%) or greater:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

As used in this report on Form 10-Q, “we”, “us”, “our”, and the “Company” refer to Fuse Medical, Inc, a Delaware corporation.

This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of our Company and the related notes included in this report for the periods presented (our “Financial Statements”), the audited consolidated financial statements of our Company and the related notes thereto and the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2021~~2022 (our ~~“2021~~“2022 Annual Report”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), on ~~March 31, 2022.~~April 14, 2023.

We are a manufacturer and national distributor of medical devices. We provide a broad portfolio of orthopedic implants including:

We also provide a wide array of osteo-biologics and regenerative products, which include human allografts, tendons, synthetic skin and bone substitute materials, and regenerative tissues, which we refer to as (“Biologics”).

All of our medical devices are cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) for sale in the United States, and all of our Biologics suppliers are licensed tissue banks accredited by the American Association of Tissue Banks. Additionally, we are licensed by the FDA for storage and distribution of human cells, tissues and cellular and bone-based products (HCT/Ps), and we are an FDA-registered medical device specification developer and repackager/relabeler, and manufacturer of record, (a “Manufacturer”). We are seeking to grow our manufacturing operations, both by internal product development and by acquiring existing FDA approved devices and related intellectual property.

As an emerging manufacturer of medical device implants, we ~~have continued~~are committed to ~~expand~~expanding our Fuse branded portfolio of orthopedic implants and biologics, with ~~three~~the continued design, development, and commercialization of new ~~product launches in 2022. In~~devices.

Our Scientific Advisory Boards continue to provide internal design and development input with our engineering team, as our projects move through the second quarter of 2022, we launched the Sterizo Tibial Revision System, which includes a modular baseplate design, with stem and augment options for primary applications. In the third quarter, we launched the Fuse PSS Pedicle Screw System with Minimally Invasive Surgery (“MIS”) features, and the Fuse PSS Pedicle Screw System for open surgeries with both low and mid top reduction options.pipeline towards FDA clearance. We anticipate a continued emphasis on the commercialization of these new products, ~~through our Retail Model,~~ as we ~~continue~~further expand our portfolio and national distribution footprint.

In Q4 2022 we invested in our direct sales team to ~~expand~~include portfolio specific leadership at the national level. This strategic sales initiative focuses on the expansion of our national distribution ~~footprint.~~footprint, via surgeon and independent distributor recruitment and retention.

~~Research~~As a result of this initiative, in Q1 2023 we added 5 new independent distributors in 5 new cities within 4 states. From our Sales Directors’ efforts, and ~~Development~~

~~During the first quarter of 2022,~~by exhibiting at state and national conferences to gain Company and product awareness, we ~~established a new Scientific Advisory Board, (“SAB”), for Sports Medicine and Extremities~~anticipate this trend to further expand our efforts to manufacture Fuse branded products. This new SAB was created for the internal design and development of new products utilizing novel materials with osseointegration capabilities and anti-bacterial properties. Our projects continue to move through the development process towards FDA clearance and commercialization, with anticipated “first to market” designations on these new and differentiated technologies.

~~This new SAB complements our existing Spine and Orthopedic SABs which have been instrumental in our design and launch of multiple Fuse product lines within our portfolio.~~continue.

Currently, the future trajectory of the COVID-19 pandemic remains uncertain, both in the U.S. and in other markets. Progress has been made on therapeutic treatments and the development and distribution of vaccines, though the efficacy, timing, and adoption of various treatments and vaccines is uncertain, particularly with respect to new variants of COVID-19 which have ~~emerged and will likely continue to emerge.~~

emerged. Given these various uncertainties, it is unclear the extent to which lingering slowdowns in elective procedures ~~will~~could affect our business during ~~2022~~2023 and beyond. We expect that the effects of COVID-19 on our business will depend on various factors including (i) the magnitude and length of increased case waves in markets we serve, including from new variants of COVID-19, (ii) the comfort level of patients returning to clinics and hospitals, (iii) the extent to which localized elective surgery shutdowns occur, (iv) the unemployment rate’s effect on potential patients lacking medical insurance coverage, and (v) general hospital capacity constraints occurring because of the need to treat COVID-19 patients.

COVID-19 has also continued to present uncertainties and delays in ~~our local~~the U.S. and ~~national~~global supply chain, for both raw materials and finished ~~goods.~~goods through increased pricing pressures and labor shortages. This disruption in our supply chain has adversely impacted lead times ~~to;~~to manufacture products, launch product lines, and commercialize our products in the marketplace. As a result, we are continuing to source alternate suppliers to help mitigate the impact to our supply chain. Any prolonged decrease in demand for our products or disruption to our business resulting from COVID-19, or similar public health emergencies, would adversely affect our revenues and results of operations.

We are subject to seasonal fluctuations in sales, which cause fluctuations in quarterly results of operations. Because of the seasonality of our business, results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of results that may be achieved in other quarters or for a full fiscal year.

Historically, we have experienced greater revenue and greater sales volume, as a percentage of revenue, during the last two calendar quarters of our fiscal year compared to the first two calendar quarters of the year. We believe this revenue trend is primarily due to the increase in elective surgeries during the last two quarters of the calendar year, which are partially satisfied by patient annual healthcare deductibles being met in those two quarters. We use this seasonality trend to assist us in enterprise-wide resource planning, such as purchasing, product inventory logistics, and human capital demands.

We believe our comprehensive selection of Orthopedic Implants and Biologics products is pivotal to our ability to acquire new customers, increase sales to existing customers and increase overall sales volume, revenues, and profitability. We continue to review and evaluate our product lines, ensuring we maintain a high-quality and cost-effective selection of Orthopedic Implants and Biologics.

We measure sales volume based on medical procedures in which our products were sold and used (each a Case). We consider Cases resulting from direct sales to hospitals and medical facilities to be Retail Cases and Cases resulting from sales to third-parties, such as distributors, or sub-distributors, to be Wholesale Cases. Some of our sales for Wholesale Cases are on a consignment basis with the third-party.

Retail. Under our retail distribution model, (“Retail Model”), we sell directly to our end customers, which consist of hospitals and medical facilities, utilizing (i) our full-time sales representatives whom we employ or engage as independent contractors and (ii) independent sales representatives who work on a non-exclusive basis. In both instances, we pay the sales representative a commission with respect to sales made by the representative. We refer to sales through our Retail Model as Retail Cases.

Wholesale. Under our wholesale distribution model, (“Wholesale Model”), we sell our products directly to independent distributors rather than to hospitals and medical facilities who are the ultimate end customer. We do not pay or receive commissions from any sales by the independent distributor to the end customer. We refer to sales through our Wholesale Model as Wholesale Cases.

Retail Cases in our industry command higher revenue price points than Wholesale Cases. Because Retail Cases involve direct sales to our end customers, we typically receive a higher gross profit margin due to the absence of any third party in the sales process. However, we may pay commissions to our full time or independent sales representatives with respect to Retail Sales increasing our commission expenses. Retail Cases generally generate substantially more gross profit than Wholesale Case transactions but are subject to commission expenses, which we do not incur with respect to Wholesale Cases.

Wholesale Cases in our industry command lower revenue price-points than Retail Cases as the third-party reseller must build in its own profit margin. Because Wholesale Cases involve sales to third parties who sell our products to end customers, our profit margins are reduced for these Cases due to the lower sales price. Consequently, our Wholesale Cases generate substantially lower gross profit than our Retail Cases, which is offset in part by the fact that we do not incur any commission costs on Wholesale Cases.

Pricing ~~pressures have~~pressure has increased in our industry due to (i) continuous consolidation among healthcare providers, (ii) trends toward managed care healthcare, (iii) increased government oversight of healthcare costs, and (iv) new laws and regulations that address healthcare reimbursement and pricing. Pricing ~~pressures,~~pressure, reductions in reimbursement levels or coverage, or other cost containment measures can significantly impact our business, future operating results and financial condition. ~~For the three months ended September 30, 2022 and~~

~~2021, our average revenues per Case was $4,260 and $4,409, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, our average revenues per Case was $4,404 and $5,343, respectively.~~

To offset pricing pressures, we employ strategies which include locating and retaining new customers, increasing volume with existing customers, and continued emphasis on promoting sales through our Retail Model. ~~Our strategy to emphasize~~For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, our Retail ~~Model proved successful as Retail Cases represented~~sales were approximately ~~96%~~91% and 94% of total revenue ~~for the third quarter of 2022, which is an approximate 3% increase over the same quarter of 2021.~~respectively.

To further offset the impact of pricing pressures, the Company employs strategies to reduce the cost of revenues by increasing Fuse branded product lines. For the three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2023 and 2022, ~~and 2021,~~ our average cost of revenues per Case was ~~$1,391~~$1,050 and ~~$1,931, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, our average cost of revenues per Case was $1,546 and $1,992,~~$1,403, respectively. Our strategy to increase Fuse branded products proved successful as the revenues produced by these products increased to approximately 50% of revenue for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2022, which is an approximate 24%~~March 31, 2023, compared to 46% increase over the same period of ~~2021.~~2022.

The preparation of our Financial Statements and the related disclosures in conformity with GAAP, requires our management to make judgments, assumptions, and estimates that affect the amounts of revenue, expenses, income, assets, and liabilities, reported in our Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Understanding our accounting policies and the extent to which our management uses judgment, assumptions, and estimates in applying these policies is integral to understanding our Financial Statements.

We describe our most significant accounting policies in Note 2, “Significant Accounting Policies” of our accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated notes to our Financial Statements beginning on page F-1 and found elsewhere in this report and in our ~~2021~~2022 Annual Report. These policies are considered critical because they may result in fluctuations in our reported results from period to period due to the significant judgments, estimates, and assumptions about highly complex and inherently uncertain matters. In addition, the use of different judgments, assumptions, or estimates could have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. We evaluate our critical accounting estimates and judgments required by our policies on an ongoing basis and update them as appropriate based on changing conditions.

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies during the period covered by this report.

We describe recent accounting pronouncements in Note 2, “Significant Accounting Policies” of our accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated notes to our Financial Statements beginning on page F-1.

The following table sets forth certain financial information from our interim unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations along with a percentage of net revenue and should be read in conjunction with our Financial Statements and related notes included in this report.

As discussed above in “Current Trends and Outlook,” we believe that as our industry faces increased pricing pressures, we will need to focus on increased volume of Cases to maintain revenue and gross profit levels. For the remaining ~~quarter~~quarters of ~~2022,~~2023, we will seek to increase our Retail Cases with our existing retail customer base and continue to add additional retail customers.

For the three months ended ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, our cost of revenues was ~~$1,481,648,~~$1,168,402 compared to ~~$1,861,620~~$1,743,309 for the three months ended ~~September 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, representing a decrease of ~~$379,972,~~$574,907, or approximately ~~20%~~33%.

As a percentage of revenues, gross profit increased by 11% to 67% for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to approximately 56% for the three months ended September 30, 2021. This increase in gross profit as a percentage of revenues was primarily caused by the decrease in cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues as discussed above.

As a percentage of net revenue, the increase of approximately 1%5% primarily resulted from (a)(i) an approximate 1%4% increase in ~~provision for bad debt,~~professional expenses (ii) an approximate 3%2% increase in ~~professional expenses,~~leased staffing costs (iii), offset, in part, by (b)(i) ~~an approximate 1% decline in stock-based compensation (ii) an approximate 1% decrease in leased staffing costs, and (iii)~~ an approximate 1% decline in selling expenses, comprised of marketing and travel and entertainment expenses.

For the three months ended ~~September 30,~~March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022, ~~and September 30, 2021,~~ commission expense was ~~$1,219,311~~$1,241,877 and ~~$1,495,720,~~$1,505,671, respectively, representing a decrease of ~~$276,409,~~$263,794, or approximately 18%.

As a percentage of net revenues, commission expense accounted for approximately ~~27%~~31% for the three months ended ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, and ~~35%~~33% for the three months ended ~~September 30, 2021.~~March 31, 2022. The overall reduction of commissions expense is directly due to the reduction of average commission rates associated with total revenues.

For the three months ended ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, our depreciation and amortization expense ~~increased~~decreased slightly to ~~$82,199~~$33,425 from ~~$14,493~~$34,402 for the three months ended ~~September 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, representing ~~an increase~~a decrease of ~~$67,706.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net revenues were $13,759,223 compared to $14,356,328 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, a decrease of $597,105 or approximately 4%. This decrease was primarily attributable to the impact of pricing pressures within certain facilities, as well as the mix of products used in Cases.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the percent of Retail Cases increased 7% compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Revenues from Retail Cases as a percent of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, increased

by 4% compared to revenues from Retail Cases as a percent of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Although the volume and percent of revenues increased, it was an insufficient increase in volume to offset the reduction in revenue per case.

As discussed above in “Current Trends and Outlook,” we believe that as our industry faces increased pricing pressures, we will need to focus on increased volume of Cases to maintain revenue and gross profit levels. For the remaining quarter of 2022, we will seek to increase our Retail Cases with our existing retail customer base and continue to add additional retail customers.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, our cost of revenues was $4,830,480, compared to $5,935,093 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, representing a decrease of $1,104,613, or approximately 19%.

As a percentage of revenues, cost of revenues decreased approximately 6% to approximately 35% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to approximately 41% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The 6% decrease as a percentage of net revenues resulted from (a)(i) an approximate 14% decrease in medical instrument expense, and (ii) 1% reduction in cost of revenues product mix offset, in part, by (b)(i) an approximate 9% increase in inventory shrink and inventory loss provision.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we generated a gross profit of $8,928,743, compared to $8,421,235 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, representing an increase of $507,508, or approximately 6%. The increase in gross profit is due to the reduction in cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues as discussed above.

As a percentage of net revenue, gross profit increased by approximately 6% to 65% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to 59% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. This increase in gross profit as a percentage of revenues was primarily caused by the decrease in cost of revenues as a percentage of net revenues, as discussed above.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, selling, general, administrative, and other expenses decreased to $4,840,852 from $5,016,594 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, representing a decrease of $175,742, or approximately 4%.

As a percentage of net revenues, selling, general, administrative and other expenses accounted for approximately 35% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021. As a percentage of net revenue, the consistent percentage of net revenues included (a)(i) an approximate 2% increase in leased staffing costs, (ii) an approximate 1% increase in professional expense, (iii) a 1% increase for employee expense reimbursements related to business development and travel costs offset, in part, by (b)(i) an approximate 2% decline in the provision for bad debt and (ii) an approximate 2% decline in stock based compensation.

~~For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, commissions expense was $4,188,841 and $4,894,845, respectively, representing a decrease of $706,005, or approximately 14%.~~

As a percentage of net revenues, commissions expenses accounted for approximately 30% for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 34% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The overall reduction of commissions expense is directly due to the reduction of average commission rates associated with 4% reduction in total revenues as discussed above.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, our depreciation expense increased to $226,243 from $46,751 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, representing an increase of $179,492. This increase was primarily due to the depreciation of medical instruments, as detailed below, and the amortization of the fees associated with obtaining the Credit Agreement.

Beginning in 2022, we changed our estimated useful life for its investment in medical instruments from 0 to 3 years based upon an analysis of our inventory and actual utilization of non-sterile medical instruments. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, our management increased property and equipment by $520,794 and recorded a depreciation expense of $128,097 which is reflected on our September 30, 2022 unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet and statements of operations.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, interest expense increased to $116,477 from $47,561 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, which is an increase of $68,916, or approximately 145%. The increase of $68,916 was primarily driven by (a)(i) an approximate $34,142 increase in interest related to increased borrowings on our Credit Agreement in comparison to our RLOC, (ii) an approximate $29,823 increase in interest costs caused by an increase in the LIBOR market interest rates, (iii) an approximate

~~$2,720 increase related to accrued interest on our PPP Loan, and (iv) an approximate $2,231 increase related to accrued interest on our EIDL Loan.~~

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recorded an income tax expense of approximately $17,305 compared to $12,723, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For additional information, please see Note 10, “Income Taxes,” of our accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated notes to our Financial Statements, beginning on page F-1.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recorded a gain on the Payroll Protection Program Loan extinguishment of zero, compared to $361,400, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For additional information, please see Note 7, “Payroll Protection Program,” of our accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated notes to our Financial Statements, beginning on page F-1.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had a net loss of $460,975 compared to a net loss $1,235,839 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, representing a decrease in net loss of $774,864, or approximately 63%. The drivers for our reduction in net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 were (a)(i) a $1,104,613 reduction in cost of revenue, (ii) a decrease of $175,742 in SG&A and other expense, (iii) a $706,005 decrease in commissions, offset, in part, by (b)(i) a decrease of $597,105 in net revenues, (ii) a decrease of $361,400 in gains from the Payroll Protection Program extinguishment, (iii) an increase of $179,492 in depreciation and amortization, (iv) a $68,916 increase in interest expense, and (v) an increase in tax expense of $4,582.

During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, net cash provided by operating activities was ~~$866,257~~$330,950 compared to ~~$231,479~~$494,138 for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2021,~~March 31, 2022, representing ~~an increase~~a decrease of ~~$634,778.~~$163,188.

The ~~increase~~decrease provided by operating activities of ~~$634,778~~$163,188 primarily resulted from: (a)(i) a ~~$1,182,540~~$124,962 increase in cash provided by the net loss adjusted for non-cash items; (a)(ii) a ~~$893,167~~$88,751 increase in cash provided by accrued expenses; (a)(iii) a ~~$206,228~~$896,214 increase in cash provided by inventories; a (a)(iv) ~~$14,467~~$99,976 increase in cash ~~used for~~provided by prepaid expenses and other current assets; and (a)(v) ~~a $13,766~~$45,672 increase ~~in cash provided by long term accounts receivable; offset, in part, by (b)(i) a $863,766 decrease~~ in cash provided by accounts receivable; offset, in part, (b)(i) a $161,189 decrease in cash used by long term accounts receivable, and (b)(ii) a ~~$811,624~~$1,257,574 increase in cash used for accounts payable.

~~During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net cash used in investing activities was $520,794 compared to zero for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, representing a decrease of $520,794.~~

The increase of $520,794 used in investing activities was for the purchase of medical instruments. Beginning in 2022, we changed our estimated useful life for its investment in medical instruments from 0 to 3 years based upon an analysis of our inventory and actual utilization of non-sterile medical instruments.

For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, net cash used in financing activities was ~~$392,664,~~$267,808, compared to ~~$346,345~~$524,841 cash used in financing activities for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2021.~~March 31, 2022.

The decrease of ~~$739,009~~$257,033 used in financing activities was from the net activity on our credit facility.

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash from our operations and the Credit and Security Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with eCapital Healthcare Corp. f/k/a CNH Finance Fund I, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“~~CNH”~~eCapital”) described below. On ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, our current assets exceeded our current liabilities by ~~$1,555,048~~$954,641 (our “Working Capital”), which included ~~$505,989~~$210,996 in cash and cash equivalents. We believe cash from our operations and net borrowings on our Credit Agreement ~~supports~~support our Working Capital needs for ~~2022. Beyond 2022, we believe that we~~2023 and beyond. If our current resources prove insufficient, the Company will ~~be able~~need to ~~support itself through our Credit Agreement until the we are able~~explore additional financing options and alternative funding sources to ~~support ourselves solely from the cash provided by operations.~~ increase liquidity.

On December 14, 2021, we entered into the Credit Agreement with ~~CNH.~~eCapital. The Credit Agreement provides for a secured revolving credit facility maturing on January 1, 2025 (the “Facility”) with an initial maximum principal in the amount of $5,000,000. Borrowings under the Facility are subject to a borrowing base as set forth in the Credit Agreement.

We used borrowings under the Facility to repay in full (i) our Amended and Restated Business Loan Agreement, dated December 31, 2017, among ZB, N.A. (d/b/a Amegy Bank) as amended (the “RLOC”), and (ii) the U.S. Small Business Administration Loan Authorization and Agreement, dated May 12, 2020, with the U.S. Small Business Association, as amended. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement may be used for working capital and payment of fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Credit Agreement.

Borrowings under the Facility bear interest at a floating rate, which will be at the Prime Rate plus 1.75%. Under the Facility, we must pay certain fees as set forth in the Credit Agreement. Our obligations with respect to the Credit Agreement are secured by a pledge of substantially all of our assets, including accounts receivables, deposit accounts, intellectual property, investment property, inventory, equipment and equity interests in our subsidiaries.

The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on our ability to incur additional debt, grant or permit additional liens, make investments and acquisitions, merge or consolidate with others, dispose of assets, pay dividends and distributions, pay subordinated indebtedness and enter into affiliate transactions. In addition, the Credit Agreement contains financial covenants requiring us on a consolidated basis to maintain, as of the last day of each calendar month (i) a current ratio of not less than 1.0 to 1.0, (ii) a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.0 to 1.0, (iii) a loan turnover rate of not greater than 60, and (iv) minimum liquidity of not less than $175,000, provided that if we comply with the fixed charge coverage ratio for twelve consecutive months, the minimum liquidity covenant shall cease to be effective. The Credit Agreement also includes events of default customary for facilities of this type and upon the occurrence of any such event of default, all outstanding loans under the Facility may be accelerated and/or the lenders’ commitments terminated.

We rely on the Credit Agreement for capital expenditures and day-to-day Working Capital needs. As of ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we had approximately ~~$505,989~~$210,996 in available cash and had reached the borrowing limit based on our borrowing base limitations. Borrowings on our Credit Agreement are repaid from cash generated from our operations.

On April 11, 2020, we received approval from the SBA to fund our request for a loan under the Payroll Protection Program created as part of the recently enacted CARES Act administered by the SBA. In connection with the PPP Loan, we entered into a promissory note in the principal amount of $361,400. In accordance with the requirements of the CARES Act, we used the proceeds from the PPP Loan primarily for payroll costs. The PPP Loan was scheduled to mature on April 11, 2022, had a 1.00% interest rate, and was subject to the terms and conditions applicable to all loans made pursuant to the PPP. We applied for and received forgiveness for the total amount of the PPP Loan during the second quarter of 2021.

On May 12, 2020, we executed the standard loan documents required for securing an EIDL Loan from the SBA in light of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business. Pursuant to that certain Loan Authorization and Agreement (the “SBA Loan Agreement”), the principal amount of the EIDL Loan was $150,000, with proceeds to be used for working capital purposes. In connection therewith, we received a $10,000 advance, which does not have to be repaid and is reflected as an offset in Selling, General, Administrative and Other Expenses in our accompanying consolidated statements of operations in 2020. (See Note 8, “Economic Injury Disaster Loan” of our accompanying consolidated notes to our Financial Statements, beginning on page F-1).

to $500,000, with proceeds to be used for working capital purposes. Interest accrued at the rate of 3.75% per annum. Installment payments, including principal and interest, were due monthly beginning May 12, 2022 (twenty-four months from the date of the Original Note) in the amount of $2,515. The balance of principal and interest was payable thirty years from the date of the A&R SBA Loan Agreement.

~~The A&R SBA Loan Agreement was paid in full in conjunction with entering into the Credit Agreement.~~

Our strategic growth plan provides for capital investment for new product launches, private label branding, and the upgrade of our financial systems which support our infrastructure. We deem these investments essential to support our growth and expansion objectives. We estimate the range of this type of investment to be approximately $2 million to $3 million and anticipate these investments to occur primarily during the calendar year ~~2022.~~2023. We expect sources of capital for these investments to be derived from cash from operations and utilizing the maximum limit with our new credit facility.

For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we had no material commitments for capital expenditures.

For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September 30, 2022,~~March 31, 2023, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.
