NUTRIBAND INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
as of and for the Three Months Ended April 30, 2025 and 2024
| 1. | ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS |
Organization
Nutriband Inc. (the “Company”) is a Nevada corporation, incorporated on January 4, 2016. In January 2016, the Company acquired Nutriband Ltd, an Irish company which was formed by the Company’s chief executive officer in 2012 to enter the health and wellness market by marketing transdermal patches. References to the Company relate to the Company and its subsidiaries unless the context indicates otherwise.
On August 1,
2018, the Company acquired 4P Therapeutics LLC (“4P Therapeutics”) for $
4P Therapeutics is engaged in the development of transdermal pharmaceutical products. With the acquisition of 4P Therapeutics, 4P Therapeutics’ drug development business became the Company’s principal business. The primary focus of the business is to incorporate the Company’s Aversa abuse deterrent technology into transdermal patches containing already approved drugs. Although these drugs are already approved, the Company needs to conduct a product development program which will include the preclinical and clinical trials that are necessary to receive FDA approval before we can market any of our pharmaceutical products.
On August 25,
2020, the Company formed Pocono Pharmaceuticals Inc. (“Pocono Pharmaceuticals”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
On August 31, 2020, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities associated with the Transdermal, Topical, Cosmetic, and Nutraceutical
businesses of Pocono Coated Products LLC (“PCP”). The net assets were contributed to Pocono Pharmaceuticals. Included in the
transaction, Pocono Pharmaceuticals also acquired
Pocono Pharmaceuticals is a coated products contract development and manufacturing organization that supports their customers with product design, development and manufacturing services. Pocono Pharmaceuticals has specialized expertise and state-of-the-art manufacturing capabilities for topical, transdermal and kinesiology tape products. Active Intelligence manufactures activated kinesiology tape for customers in the sports and physical markets.
| 2. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Unaudited Financial Statements
The consolidated balance sheet as of April 30, 2025, and the consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the periods presented have been prepared by the Company and are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) to prepare fairly the financial position, results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for all periods presented have been made. The results for the three months ending April 30, 2025, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes therein included in Nutriband’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending January 31, 2025.
6
Certain information and footnote disclosures required under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted from these consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations, including interim reporting requirements of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The preparation of consolidated statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and the disclosures of contingent amounts in our consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes. Actual results could differ from estimates.
The Company’s significant accounting policies are in Note 2 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending January 31, 2025. There were no significant changes to these accounting policies during the three months ending April 30, 2025.
Going Concern Assessment
Management assesses liquidity and going concern uncertainty in the Company’s condensed financial statements to determine whether there is sufficient cash on hand and working capital, including available borrowings on loans, to operate for a period of at least one year from the date the consolidated financial statements are issued or available to be issued, which is referred to as the “look-forward period”, as defined in GAAP. As part of this assessment, based on conditions that are known and reasonably knowable to management, management will consider various scenarios, forecasts, projections, estimates and will make certain key assumptions, including timing and nature of projected cash expenditures or programs, its ability to delay or curtail expenditures or programs and its ability to raise additional capital, if necessary, among other factors. Based on this assessment, as necessary or applicable, management makes certain assumptions around implementing curtailments or delays in the nature and timing of programs and expenditures to the extent it deems probable those implementations can be achieved, and management has the proper authority to execute them within the look-forward period.
As of April
30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $
Management has prepared estimates for operations for the next twelve months and believes that sufficient funds will be generated from operations to fund its operations for one year from the date of the filing of these condensed consolidated financial statements, which indicates improved operations and the Company’s ability to continue operations as a going concern.
Management believes the substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is alleviated by the above assessment.
7
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The operations of 4P Therapeutics are included in the Company’s financial statements from the date of acquisition of August 1, 2018, and the acquired operations of Pocono Coated Products and Active Intelligence are included in the Company’s financial statements from the date of acquisition of September 1, 2020, under Pocono Pharmaceuticals Inc. The wholly owned subsidiaries are as follows:
Nutriband Ltd.
4P Therapeutics LLC
Pocono Pharmaceuticals Inc.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates including, but not limited to, those related to such items as income tax exposures, accruals, depreciable/useful lives, allowance for doubtful accounts and valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on other various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”), which amends the accounting standards for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 is based on principles that govern the recognition of revenue at an amount an entity expects to be entitled when products are transferred to a customer. The Company recognizes revenue based on the five criteria for revenue recognition established under Topic 606: 1) identify the contract, 2) identify separate performance obligations, 3) determine the transaction price, 4) allocate the transaction price among the performance obligations, and 5) recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied.
Revenue Types
The following is a description of the Company’s revenue types, which include professional services and sale of goods:
| ● | Contract development and manufacturing services for consumer health transdermal, topical and tape products with revenues listed under sale of goods. |
| ● | Product revenues derived from the sale of the Company’s consumer transdermal, topical and tape products with sales listed under sale of goods. |
| ● | Contract research and development services for pharmaceutical and medical device life sciences customers with revenues listed under services. |
8
Contracts with Customers
A contract with a customer exists when (i) we enter into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these goods or services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and, (iii) we determine that collection of substantially all consideration for services that are transferred is probable based on the customer’s intent and ability to pay the promised consideration.
Contract Liabilities
Deferred revenue is a liability related to a revenue producing activity for which revenue has not been recognized. The Company records deferred revenue when it receives consideration from a contract before achieving certain criteria that must be met for revenue to be recognized in conformity with GAAP.
Performance Obligations
A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of accounts in the new revenue standard. The contract transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. For the Company’s different revenue service types, the performance obligation is satisfied at different times. The Company’s performance obligations include providing products and professional services in the area of research. The Company recognizes product revenue performance obligations in most cases when the product has shipped to the customer. When we perform professional service work, we recognize revenue when we have the right to invoice the customer for the work completed, which typically occurs over time on a monthly basis for the work performed during that month.
All revenue recognized in the income statement is considered to be revenue from contracts with customers.
Disaggregation of Revenues
The Company disaggregates its revenue from contracts with customers by type and by geographical location. See the tables:

Cash and cash equivalents.
Cash and cash equivalents include
cash on hand and cash on deposit in money market accounts. The Company considers short-term highly liquid investments with an original
maturity date of three months or less that are not part of an investment pool to be cash equivalents. As of April 30, 2025, the Company
had $
Accounts receivable
Trade accounts
receivables are recorded at the net invoice value and are not interest bearing. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts
for estimated losses from the inability of its customers to make the required payments. The Company determines its allowances by both
specific identification of customer accounts where appropriate and the application of historical loss to non-applicable accounts. For
the three months ending April 30, 2025, and 2024, the Company recorded bad debt expenses of $
Inventories
Inventories
are valued at the lower of cost and reasonable value determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Net realized value is the
estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses. The cost of finished goods and
work in process is comprised of material costs, direct labor costs and other direct costs and related production overheads (based on normal
operating capacity). As of April 30, 2025, total inventory was $
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property and
equipment represent an important component of the Company’s assets. The Company depreciates its plant and equipment on a straight-line
basis over the estimated useful life of the assets. Property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost. Expenditures for minor
repairs, maintenance and replacement parts which do not increase the useful lives of the assets are charged to expense as incurred. All
major additions and improvements are capitalized. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method.

Intangible Assets
Intangible
assets include trademarks, intellectual property and customer base acquired through business combinations. The Company accounts for Other
Intangible Assets under the guidance of ASC 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other.” The Company capitalizes certain costs related
to patent technology. A substantial component of the purchase price related to the Company’s acquisitions has also been assigned
to intellectual property and other intangibles. Under the guidance, other intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their
estimated useful lives. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested annually for impairment. Trademarks, intellectual property
and customer base are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of
Goodwill
Goodwill represents
the difference between the total purchase price and the fair value of assets (tangible and intangible) and liabilities at the date of
acquisition. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually on January 31, and more frequently as circumstances warrant, and written down
only in the period in which the recorded value of such assets exceeds their fair value. The Company does not amortize goodwill in accordance
with ASC 350. In connection with the Company’s acquisition of 4P Therapeutics LLC in 2018, the Company recorded Goodwill of $
Long-lived Assets
Management reviews long-lived assets for potential impairment whenever significant events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If an impairment exists, the resulting write-down would be the difference between the fair market value of the long-lived asset and the related book value.
Treasury Stock
The Company records the purchase of its treasury shares under the historical cost method. The reissuance of treasury shares are recorded using the average cost method.
Earnings per Share
Basic earnings
per share of common stock is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during
the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common
stock and potential shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Potential shares of common stock consist of shares issuable
upon the exercise of outstanding options and common stock purchase warrants. As of April 30, 2025, and 2024, there were
11
Stock-Based Compensation
ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee services, and, since February 1, 2019, non-employees, are acquired. Transactions include incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares, options and other equity instruments such as employee stock ownership plans and stock appreciation rights. Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on their fair values. That expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). As of February 1, 2019, pursuant to ASC 2018-07, ASC 718 was applied to stock-based compensation for both employees and non-employees.
Business Combinations
The Company recognizes the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date, with limited exceptions specified in the accounting literature. In accordance with this guidance, acquisition-related costs, including restructuring costs, must be recognized separately from the acquisition and will generally be expensed as incurred. That replaces the cost-allocation process detailed in previous accounting literature, which required the cost of an acquisition to be allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value.
Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases” (Topic 842), to provide a new comprehensive model for lease accounting under this guidance, lessees and lessors should apply a “right-of-use” model in accounting for all leases (including subleases) and eliminate the concept of operating leases and off-balance-sheet leases. Recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses will depend on classification as a finance or operating lease. Similar modifications have been made to lessor accounting in-line with revenue recognition guidance.
The Company applies guidance for right-of-use accounting for all leases and records the operating lease liabilities on its balance sheet. The Company completed the necessary changes to its accounting policies, processes, disclosure and internal control over financial reporting.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
Income Taxes
Taxes are calculated in accordance with taxation principles currently effective in the United States and Ireland.
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
12
The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent they believe these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. In the event the Company was determined that it would be able to realize its deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of its net recorded amount, the Company would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance which would reduce the provision for income taxes.
Fair Value Measurements
FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure” (“ASC 820”), defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of input that may be used to measure fair value.
The Company utilizes the accounting guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures for all financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis during the reporting period. The fair value is an exit price, representing the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants based upon the best use of the asset or liability at the measurement date. The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. ASC 820 establishes a three-tier value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers are defined as follows:
| Level 1 | -Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets. | |
| Level 2 | -Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable. | |
| Level 3 | -Unobservable inputs about which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. |
The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, including accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and deferred revenue approximate their fair value due to the short maturities of these financial instruments.
Recent Accounting Standards
The Company has reviewed all other FASB-issued ASU accounting pronouncements and interpretations thereof that have effective dates during the period reported and in future periods. The Company has carefully considered the new pronouncements that alter previous GAAP and does not believe that any new or modified principles will have a material impact on the Company’s reported financial position or operations in the near term. The applicability of any standard is subject to the formal review of the Company’s financial management and certain standards are under consideration.

Overview
Nutriband Inc. (the “Company”, “Nutriband”, “we” or “us”), was incorporated in Nevada in January 2016. Our primary business is the development of a portfolio of transdermal pharmaceutical products. Our development pipeline primarily consists of transdermal products that are based on our proprietary AVERSA™ abuse deterrent transdermal technology that we believe can be incorporated into existing transdermal patches that contain drugs that are susceptible to abuse and misuse such as opioid and stimulant drugs.
The Company’s revenues are based on providing services through our subsidiaries Pocono Pharmaceuticals operating as Active Intelligence and 4P Therapeutics. Pocono Pharmaceuticals provides contract manufacturing services for health, wellness and over-the-counter pharmaceutical customers and 4P Therapeutics performs contract research and development related services for pharmaceutical and medical devices customers. We manage and evaluate our operations, and report our financial results, through these two separate subsidiaries.
Our principal offices are located in Orlando, Florida, and our subsidiary, Pocono Pharmaceuticals, has a manufacturing facility in Cherryville, North Carolina. We primarily operate and derive most of our revenues in the United States.
Recent Developments
On February 13, 2025, we signed an addendum to the Commercial Development and Clinical Supply Agreement for our lead product, Aversa™ Fentanyl, being developed with our partner, Kindeva Drug Delivery, a leading global contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO) focused on drug-device combination products. Nutriband and Kindeva have revised their agreement to formalize their exclusive product development partnership and long-term commitment based on shared development costs in exchange for milestone payments. The development work being conducted under this agreement supports the development of Nutriband’s AVERSA™ abuse-deterrent technology in general, which can be utilized to incorporate aversive agents into transdermal patches to prevent the abuse, diversion, misuse, and accidental exposure of drugs with abuse potential including opioids and stimulants.
22
On April 19, 2024, the Company completed an $8,400,000 equity financing with European investors (the “Offering”) of 2,100,000 units (“Units”), at a price of $4.00 per Unit, each Unit consisting of one share of common stock (“Shares”) and a Warrant to purchase two Shares of common stock, the Warrants having an initial exercise price of $6.43, are exercisable by payment of the exercise price in cash only and expire April 19, 2029, five years from the date of issuance (“Warrants”). The Offering was made solely to investors resident outside the United States and was not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the securities laws of any jurisdiction, including any jurisdiction outside the United States, but was made privately by the Company pursuant to the exemptions from registration provided in the SEC’s Regulation S and other exemptions under the Securities Act.
Our Business
AVERSA Abuse Deterrent Transdermal Products
Our lead product under development is AVERSA Fentanyl, an abuse deterrent fentanyl transdermal system that combines an approved generic fentanyl patch with our AVERSA abuse deterrent transdermal technology to reduce the abuse and misuse of fentanyl patches. We believe that our AVERSA technology can be broadly applied to various transdermal products, and our plan is to follow the development of AVERSA Fentanyl with the development of additional abuse deterrent transdermal products for pharmaceuticals that have a risk or history of abuse, misuse or accidental exposure. Specifically, we have expanded our development pipeline to include AVERSA Buprenorphine and AVERSA Methylphenidate. In addition, we are developing a portfolio of transdermal pharmaceutical products to deliver already approved drugs or biologics that are typically delivered by injection but with the potential to improve compliance and therapeutic outcomes through transdermal delivery.
In January 2024, we signed a commercial development and clinical supply agreement with Kindeva Drug Delivery, formerly 3M Drug Delivery (“Kindeva”), for the development of AVERSA Fentanyl using Kindeva’s FDA-approved fentanyl patch. This agreement replaced the previous feasibility agreement between the two companies which was focused on establishing the feasibility of incorporating our AVERSA abuse deterrent transdermal technology into Kindeva’s commercial transdermal manufacturing process. The commercial development and clinical supply agreement is focused on developing the commercial manufacturing process for AVERSA Fentanyl.
On November 1, 2021, The Board of Directors adopted the 2021 Employee Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”), and the Plan then adopted provided for an initial 350,000 shares to issue and sell upon the exercise of stock options issued under the Plan. As of May 30, 2025, the Company has reserved 1,373,668 shares to issue and sell upon the exercise of stock options issued under the Plan.
The Plan provides for an automatic annual increase to be added on February 1 of each year equal to the lesser of (i) 250,000 shares of Common Equity or (ii) five percent (5%) of the total shares of Common Stock outstanding on such date (including for this purpose any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any outstanding capital equity of the Company) or (iii) such lesser number as determined by the Board. In accordance with the Plan, on February 1, 2022, the Company reserved an additional 233,333 shares and on February 1, 2023, the Company reserved an additional 233,333 shares. On March 20, 2024, our Board of Directors adopted an amendment to the Plan increasing the number of shares of common stock subject to the Plan (as of March 20, 2024, 875,000 shares) to 1,400,00 shares (the “Amendment”). We submitted the Amendment to the Plan to our stockholders for adoption and approval at the 2025 Annual Meeting, and the Amendment was approved by a majority vote of our stockholders. As of May 30, 2025, with the February 1, 2025 automatic increase of shares available for issuance under the Plan, 276,333 shares remain available for issuance of options under the Plan.
On April 19, 2024, the Company completed an $8,400,000 equity financing with European investors of 2,100,000 units, at a price of $4.00 per Unit, each Unit consisting of one share of common stock and a Warrant to purchase two shares of common stock, the Warrants having an initial exercise price of $6.43, are exercisable by payment of the exercise price in cash only and expire April 19, 2029, five years from the date of issuance. The offering was made solely to investors resident outside the United States and was not registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any jurisdiction, including any jurisdiction outside the United States, but was made privately by the Company pursuant to the exemptions from registration provided in the SEC’s Regulation S and other exemptions under the Securities Act.

Results of Operations
Three Months Ended April 30, 2025 and 2024
For the three months ending April 30, 2025, we generated revenue of $667,432 and our revenue costs were $415,451, resulting in a gross profit of $251,981. For the three months ending April 30, 2024, we generated revenue of $408,532 and our costs of revenue were $243,746, resulting in a gross profit of $164,786. Our revenue for the three months ending April 30, 2025, was derived from sales from our Pocono Pharmaceuticals segment and $-0- from contract research and development services from our 4P Therapeutics segment. The revenue from the Pocono Pharmaceuticals segment increased from the prior year as the Company ordered additional equipment to meet the new demand and implemented this equipment during the third quarter of the prior year. An increase in demand is expected in the balance of the current year. There were no sales in our 4P Therapeutics segment in the current year due to a shift in focus and the main contract wound down in the prior year. The increase in gross margin is due primarily to higher margins in our sales mix.
For the three months ending April 30, 2025, our selling, general and administrative expenses were $982,052, primarily legal, accounting and public relations compared to $1,079,728 for the three months ending April 30, 2024. The decrease from 2024 is primarily attributable to decreases in non-cash equity-based expenses.
During the three months ending April 30, 2025, the Company incurred research and development expenses of its Aversa Fentanyl product of $683,426, primarily of salaries and increases in development costs from Kindeva as compared to $974,535 for the three months ending April 30, 2024. The decrease is primarily attributable to a reduction in labor costs.
We incurred interest expenses of $5,880 for the three months ending April 30, 2025, as compared to $8,618 for the three months ending April 30, 2024.
Interest income for the three months ending April 30, 2025 was $30,508 as compared to $18 for the three months ending April 30, 2024. The increase is primarily due to investment in excess cash from the Company’s equity financing.
As a result of the foregoing, we sustained a net loss of $1,388,869 or $(0.12) per share (basic and diluted) for the three months ending April 30, 2025, compared with a loss of $1,898,077, or $(0.21) per share (basic and diluted) for the three months ending April 30, 2024.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of April 30, 2025, we had $2,964,097 in cash and cash equivalents and working capital of $2,504,596, as compared with cash and cash equivalents of $4,311,719 and working capital of $3,811,420 as of January 31, 2025.
For the three months ending April 30, 2025, we used cash of $1,336,972 in our operations. The principal adjustments to our net loss of $1,388,869 were depreciation and amortization of $57,490, and the issuance of employee stock for services in the amount of $63,850.
For the three months ending April 30, 2025, we used cash in investing activities of $5,324 primarily for the purchase of equipment.
For the three months ending April 30, 2025, we used cash in financing activities of $5,326 primarily from the payment of note payable.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.
Critical Accounting Policies
Going Concern Assessment
Management assesses liquidity and going concern uncertainty in the Company’s condensed financial statements to determine whether there is sufficient cash on hand and working capital, including available borrowings on loans, to operate for a period of at least one year from the date the consolidated financial statements are issued or available to be issued, which is referred to as the “look-forward period”, as defined in GAAP. As part of this assessment, based on conditions that are known and reasonably knowable to management, management will consider various scenarios, forecasts, projections, estimates and will make certain key assumptions, including timing and nature of projected cash expenditures or programs, its ability to delay or curtail expenditures or programs and its ability to raise additional capital, if necessary, among other factors. Based on this assessment, as necessary or applicable, management makes certain assumptions around implementing curtailments or delays in the nature and timing of programs and expenditures to the extent it deems probable those implementations can be achieved and management has the proper authority to execute them within the look-forward period.
As of April 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $2,904,097 and working capital of $2,504,596. For the three months ending April 30, 2025, the Company incurred a net loss from operations of $1,413,497 and used cash flow from operations of $1,336,972. The Company has generated operating losses since its inception and has relied on sales of securities and the issuance of third-party and related-party debt to support cash flow from operations. The Company has used these proceeds to fund operations and will continue to use the funds as needed. In March 2023, the Company entered into a three-year $2,000,000 Credit Line Note facility with a related party, amended on July 13, 2023, to $5,000,000, which will permit the Company to draw down on the credit line to fund the Company’s research and development of its Aversa product. On April 19, 2024, the Company received proceeds of $8,400,000 from equity financing with European investors.
Management has prepared estimates of operations for the next twelve months and believes that sufficient funds will be generated from operations to fund its operations for one year from the date of the filing of these condensed consolidated financial statements, which indicates improved operations and the Company’s ability to continue operations as a going concern.
Management believes the substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is alleviated by the above assessment.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The operations of 4P Therapeutics are included in the Company’s financial statements from the date of acquisition of August 1, 2018, and the operations of Pocono and Active Intelligence are included in the Company’s financial statements from the date of acquisition of September 1, 2020, under Pocono Pharmaceuticals Inc. The wholly owned subsidiaries are as follows:
Nutriband Ltd.
4P Therapeutics LLC
Pocono Pharmaceuticals Inc.
25
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates including, but not limited to, those related to such items as income tax exposures, accruals, depreciable/useful lives, allowance for doubtful accounts and valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on other various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”), which amends the accounting standards for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 is based on principles that govern the recognition of revenue at an amount an entity expects to be entitled when products are transferred to a customer. The Company recognizes revenue based on the five criteria for revenue recognition established under Topic 606: 1) identify the contract, 2) identify separate performance obligations, 3) determine the transaction price, 4) allocate the transaction price among the performance obligations, and 5) recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied.
Revenue Types
The following is a description of the Company’s revenue types, which include professional services and sale of goods:
| ● | Contract development and manufacturing services for consumer health transdermal, topical and tape products with revenues listed under sale of goods. |
| ● | Product revenues are derived from the sale of the Company’s consumer transdermal, topical and tape products with sales listed under sale of goods. |
| ● | Contract research and development services for pharmaceutical and medical devices for life sciences customers with revenues listed under services. |
Contracts with Customers
A contract with a customer exists when (i) we enter into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these goods or services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and, (iii) we determine that collection of substantially all consideration for services that are transferred is probable based on the customer’s intent and ability to pay the promised consideration.
Contract Liabilities
Deferred revenue is a liability related to a revenue producing activity for which revenue has not been recognized. The Company records deferred revenue when it receives consideration from a contract before achieving certain criteria that must be met for revenue to be recognized in conformity with GAAP.
26
Performance Obligations
A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of accounts in the new revenue standard. The contract transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. For the Company’s different revenue service types, the performance obligation is satisfied at different times. The Company’s performance obligations include providing products and professional services in the area of research. The Company recognizes product revenue performance obligations in most cases when the product has shipped to the customer. When we perform professional service work, we recognize revenue when we have the right to invoice the customer for the work completed, which typically occurs over time on a monthly basis for the work performed during that month.
All revenue recognized in the income statement is considered to be revenue from contracts with customers.
Cash and cash equivalents.
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash on deposit in money market accounts. The Company considers short-term highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less that are not part of an investment pool to be cash equivalents. As of April 30, 2025, the Company had $2,547,000 that exceeded federally insured limits.
Accounts receivable
Trade accounts receivables are recorded at the net invoice value and are not interest bearing. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses from the inability of its customers to make the required payments. The Company determines its allowances by both specific identification of customer accounts where appropriate and the application of historical loss to non-applicable accounts. For the three months ending April 30, 2025, and 2024, the Company recorded bad debt expenses of $-0- and $1,200, respectively, for doubtful accounts related to accounts receivable. During the year ended January 31, 2024, the Company entered into an accounts receivable sale agreement for one of its subsidiaries. The Company received $106,528 in funds against an account receivable that is currently a claim in bankruptcy. The net accounts receivable remain on the books of the Company and a corresponding amount has been included as a secured borrowing liability under Notes payable. As of April 30, 2025, the receivable has been reserved in full. If the bankruptcy claim is not paid in full by the debtor, Company is obligated to pay any difference to the factor. The loan bears interest at 10%. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 during 2013 and implemented the guidance on expected credit losses.
27
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost and reasonable value determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The net realized value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less applicable variable selling expenses. The cost of finished goods and work in process is comprised of material costs, direct labor costs and other direct costs and related production overheads (based on normal operating capacity). As of April 30, 2025, total inventory was $215,324, consisting of work-in-process of $100,690, finished goods of $9,172 and raw materials of $105,463. As of January 31, 2025, total inventory was $212,041, consisting of work-in-process of $46,235, finished goods of $16,609 and raw materials of $149,177.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property and equipment represent an important component of the Company’s assets. The Company depreciates its plant and equipment on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets. Property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost. Expenditures for minor repairs, maintenance and replacement parts which do not increase the useful lives of the assets are charged to expense as incurred. All major additions and improvements are capitalized. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. The lives over which the fixed assets are depreciated range from 3 to 20 years as follows:
| Lab Equipment | 5-10 years | |
| Furniture and fixtures | 3 years | |
| Machinery and equipment | 10-20 years |
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets include trademarks, intellectual property and customer base acquired through business combinations. The Company accounts for Other Intangible Assets under the guidance of ASC 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other.” The Company capitalizes certain costs related to patent technology. A substantial component of the purchase price related to the Company’s acquisitions has also been assigned to intellectual property and other intangibles. Under the guidance, other intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested annually for impairment. Trademarks, intellectual property and customer base are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of ten years. During the year ending January 31, 2025, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $293,038 to its intellectual property.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the difference between the total purchase price and the fair value of assets (tangible and intangible) and liabilities at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is reviewed for impairment annually on January 31, and more frequently as circumstances warrant, and written down only in the period in which the recorded value of such assets exceeds their fair value. The Company does not amortize goodwill in accordance with ASC 350. In connection with the Company’s acquisition of 4P Therapeutics LLC in 2018, the Company recorded Goodwill of $1,719,235. On August 31, 2020, in connection with the Company’s acquisition of Pocono Coated Products LLC and Active Intelligence LLC, the Company recorded Goodwill of $5,810,640. During the years ended January 31, 2025, and 2024, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $3,302,478- and $-0-, respectively, reducing the Active Intelligence LLC Goodwill to $-0-. As of April 30, 2025, and January 31, 2025, Goodwill amounted to $1,719,535 and $1,719,535, respectively.
Long-lived Assets
Management reviews long-lived assets for potential impairment whenever significant events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment exists when the carrying amount of the long-lived asset is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If an impairment exists, the resulting write-down would be the difference between the fair market value of the long-lived asset and the related book value.

Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per share of common stock is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potential shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Potential shares of common stock consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding options and common stock purchase warrants. As of April 30, 2025, and 2024, there were 6,920,641 and 6,862,308 common stock equivalents outstanding, that were not included in the calculation of dilutive earnings per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
Stock-Based Compensation
ASC 718, “Compensation - Stock Compensation,” prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee services, and, since February 1, 2019, non-employees, are acquired. Transactions include incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares, options and other equity instruments such as employee stock ownership plans and stock appreciation rights. Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on their fair values. That expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period). As of February 1, 2019, pursuant to ASC 2018-07, ASC 718 was applied to stock-based compensation for both employees and non-employees.
Business Combinations
The Company recognizes the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquired entity at the acquisition date measured at their fair values as of that date, with limited exceptions specified in the accounting literature. In accordance with this guidance, acquisition-related costs, including restructuring costs, must be recognized separately from the acquisition and will generally be expensed as incurred. That replaces the cost-allocation process detailed in previous accounting literature, which required the cost of an acquisition to be allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value.
Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases” (Topic 842), to provide a new comprehensive model for lease accounting under this guidance, lessees and lessors should apply a “right-of-use” model in accounting for all leases (including subleases) and eliminate the concept of operating leases and off-balance-sheet leases. Recognition, measurement and presentation of expenses will depend on classification as a finance or operating lease. Similar modifications have been made to lessor accounting in-line with revenue recognition guidance.
The Company applies guidance for right-of-use accounting for all leases and records the operating lease liabilities on its balance sheet. The Company completed the necessary changes to its accounting policies, processes, disclosure and internal control over financial reporting.
29
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
Income Taxes
Taxes are calculated in accordance with taxation principles currently effective in the United States and Ireland.
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent they believe these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. In the event the Company was determined that it would be able to realize its deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of its net recorded amount, the Company would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance which would reduce the provision for income taxes.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Not applicable.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure controls and procedures.
As of the end of period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. Based upon that evaluation, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
Management has determined that our internal controls contain material weaknesses due to the absence of segregation of duties, as well as lack of qualified accounting personnel, and excessive reliance on third-party consultants for accounting, financial reporting and related activities. During the past fiscal year, we have added qualified accounting personnel, so the Company does not have to rely on third-party consultants. The Company has established additional monitoring controls over the financial statements. We have also improved our internal controls to provide for a detailed accounting review of all revenue items and accounts receivable and accounts payable transactions in connection with the entry and categorization of each transaction in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.
Changes in internal controls over financial reporting.
No changes were made to our internal controls in the quarterly period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely materially to affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
With respect to legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business, when the Company becomes aware of a claim or potential claim, it assesses the likelihood of any loss or exposure. In accordance with authoritative guidance, the Company records loss contingencies in its financial statements only for matters in which losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated.
The Company is currently a defendant in a lawsuit initiated by Joseph Gunnar, LLC (“Gunnar”) and Lucosky Brookman LLP (“LB”) in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County, under Index No.654633/2023. The lawsuit alleges multiple allegations such as breach of contract, fraudulent activities, and tortious interference and seeks damages following the Company’s termination of an engagement letter for assistance with a public stock offering. Gunnar is seeking over $500,000 in damages plus punitive damages, while LB is demanding reimbursement of legal fees.
In response, the Company denies all allegations, alleging that the engagement letter was unenforceable, and its termination was legally justified. The Company has also initiated counterclaims against Joseph Gunnar & Co., accusing them of intentional interference and breach of fiduciary duty, and is seeking $1,000,000 for each claim along with a declaratory judgment affirming the legality and justification of the termination. The plaintiffs have denied these counterclaims.
Currently, there are no pending hearings or motions, and the case is in the discovery stage. In early 2024, the plaintiffs proposed a settlement offer of $100,000. The Company has not responded to that settlement offer.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the key risks described below together with all of the other information included in this report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 28, 2025, before making an investment decision with regard to our securities. The risks set forth below and in our Form 10-K are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties may exist that could also adversely affect our business, prospects or operations. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or a significant part of your investment.
There is economic uncertainty concerning economic policies being pursued by the current administration in the United States that may affect the costs and timing of the process of bringing our products to market through approvals with the FDA.
Our operating results could be affected by the current political and economic uncertainties related to the economy of the United States, the domestic pharmaceutical industry and world economies. Future conditions may also adversely affect our pricing strategy, promotional activities and our profitability and margins. Additionally, many of the effects and consequences of U.S. and global financial and economic conditions could potentially have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and capital resources, including the ability to raise additional capital, if needed, or could otherwise negatively affect our business and financial results. Market instability could make it more difficult for us and our suppliers to accurately forecast future product demand trends. Additionally, inflationary factors such as increases in the costs to purchase products, acquire product rights and overhead costs may adversely affect our operating results.
In this economic environment, we are also subject to the risks common to low-revenue start-up enterprises, including, among other factors, undercapitalization, cash shortages, limitations with respect to personnel, financial and other capital or operating expenditures. Drug development companies typically incur substantial losses during the product development and FDA testing phase of the business and do not generate revenues until after the drug has received FDA approval, which cannot be assured, and until the company has started to sell the product. We can give no assurance that we can or will ever be successful in achieving profitability and the likelihood of our success must be considered in light of our early stage of operations. We cannot assure you that we will be able to operate profitably or generate positive cash flow. If we cannot achieve profitability, we may be forced to cease operations and you may suffer a total loss of your investment.
Because we do not have a product we can market in the United States, we cannot predict when or whether we will operate profitably.
We have not completed the development of our lead product, which is our abuse deterrent fentanyl transdermal system, and we do not have any product that we can market in the United States. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with product development, we cannot assure you that we will be able to develop and market any products or achieve or attain profitability. If we are able to obtain financing for our operations, we expect that we will incur substantial expenses as we continue with our product development and clinical trials. Further, if we are required by applicable regulatory authorities, including the FDA as well as the comparable regulatory agencies in other countries in which we may seek to market product, to perform studies in addition to those we currently anticipate, our expenses will increase beyond expectations and the timing of any potential product approval may be delayed. As a result, we could continue to incur substantial losses and negative cash flow as long as these negative factors continue in effect.
A number of factors, including, but not limited to the following, may affect our ability to develop our business and operate profitably:
| ● | our ability to obtain necessary funding to develop our proposed products; |
| ● | the success of clinical trials for our products; |
31
| ● | our ability to obtain FDA approval for us to market any proposed product in our pipeline in the United States; |
| ● | any delays in regulatory review and approval of product in development; |
| ● | if we obtain FDA approval to market our product, our ability to establish manufacturing and distribution operations or entering into manufacturing and distribution agreements with qualified third parties; |
| ● | market acceptance of our products; |
| ● | our ability to establish an effective sales and marketing infrastructure; |
| ● | our ability to protect our intellectual property; |
| ● | competition from existing products or new products that may emerge; |
| ● | potential product liability claims and adverse events; |
| ● | our ability to adequately support future growth; and |
| ● | our ability to attract and retain key personnel to manage our business effectively. |
Our stock price has been and is likely to continue to be volatile and you may not be able to resell shares of our common stock at or above the price you paid, if at all.
The trading price of our common stock has experienced fluctuations due to the factors discussed in these risk factors. In addition, the stock market in general has, and the NASDAQ Capital Market and technology companies in particular have, experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. These trading prices and valuations may not be sustainable. These broad market and industry factors may decrease the market price of our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance. In addition, in the past, following periods of volatility in the overall market and the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against companies (primarily those that are larger than us) that experienced such volatility. This type of litigation, if instituted against us, regardless of its outcome, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our management’s attention and resources.
Stockholders may experience significant dilution as a result of future equity offerings and other issuances of our common stock or other securities.
We will need to raise substantial funds in order to develop our products. In order to raise additional capital, we may in the future offer additional shares of our common stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for our common stock at prices that may be based on a discount from market at the time of issuance. Stockholders will incur dilution upon exercise of any outstanding stock options, warrants or upon the issuance of shares of common stock under our present and future stock incentive programs. In addition, the sale of shares and any future sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that such sales may occur, could adversely affect the price of our common stock. We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of those shares of common stock or the availability of those shares of common stock for sale will have on the market price of our common stock.
The drug delivery industry is subject to rapid technological change, and our failure to keep up with technological developments may impair our ability to market our products.
Our products use technology which we developed for the transdermal delivery of drugs. The field of drug delivery is subject to rapid technological changes. Our future success will depend upon our ability to keep abreast of the latest developments in the industry and to keep pace with advances in technology and changing customer requirements. If we cannot keep pace with such changes and advances, our proposed products could be rendered obsolete, which would result in our having to cease its operations.
