CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Report”), including this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, regarding future events and the future results of the Company that are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections about the industry in which the Company operates and the beliefs and assumptions of the management of the Company. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “targets,” “goals,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates,” variations of such words, and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are only predictions and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. In particular, as discussed in greater detail below, our financial condition and results could be materially adversely affected by the continued impacts and disruptions caused by the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) global pandemic and governmental responses thereto. Therefore, actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed elsewhere in this Report, including under “Risk Factors”, and in other reports the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC on March 29, 2021 (under the heading “Risk Factors” and in other parts of that report).
The following discussion is based upon our unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingencies. In the course of operating our business, we routinely make decisions as to the timing of the payment of invoices, the collection of receivables, the shipment of products, the fulfillment of orders, the purchase of supplies, and the building of inventory, among other matters. Each of these decisions has some impact on the financial results for any given period. In making these decisions, we consider various factors including contractual obligations, customer satisfaction, competition, internal and external financial targets and expectations, and financial planning objectives. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to sales returns, pricing credits, warranty costs, allowance for doubtful accounts, impairment of long-term assets, especially goodwill and intangible assets, contract manufacturer exposures for carrying and obsolete material charges, assumptions used in the valuation of stock-based compensation, and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Report, and in other reports we file with the SEC, and in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. All references to years relate to the calendar year ended December 31 of the particular year.

Although we believe that our plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by the forward-looking statements we make in this Report are reasonable, we provide no assurance that these plans, intentions or expectations will be achieved. We disclose important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from our expectations under “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

TRxADE
HEALTH, INC. (“we”, “our”, “Trxade”, and the “Company”) owns
Trxade, Inc., operates a web-based market platform that enables commerce among healthcare buyers and sellers of pharmaceuticals, accessories and services.
Integra Pharma Solutions, LLC, is a licensed pharmaceutical wholesaler and sells brand, generic and non-drug products.
Community Specialty Pharmacy, LLC, is an accredited independent retail pharmacy with a focus on specialty medications and a community-based model offering home delivery services to patients.
Alliance Pharma Solutions, LLC, has developed a same-day pharmaceutical delivery software – Delivmeds.com, and invested in SyncHealth MSO, LLC, a managed services organization during January 2019, which investment was divested in February 2020.
Bonum
Health, LLC, was formed to hold certain telehealth assets acquired in October 2019. The “Bonum Health Hub” was launched
in November 2019 and was expected to be operational in April 2020; however, due to the COVID-19 pandemic the Company does not anticipate

MedCheks, LLC, was formed in January 2021 and is a patient-centered, digital, precision healthcare platform that lets patients consolidate and control their health data via a digital Health Passport. The digital Health Passport allows users to share their health profile, tests and vaccinations simply and safely. Secured in a blockchain, the Health Passport includes health and vaccination status verification via a QR code (a two-dimensional machine-readable optical label), which is available for travel, entry into stadiums, concert venues, events, offices, industrial plants, warehouses, and other physical access points. MedCheks Health Passport stores all of a user’s health records securely in one place. The Health Passport App has encountered head winds as the governments…local, national and international…continue to change the requirements regarding COVID-19, which include testing and mask mandates. We are evaluating the next steps needed for any additional roll-out.
Basis of Presentation - The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Trxade Health, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2021.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Income
(loss) Per Common Share – Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders

per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding
if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. The dilutive effect of the Company’s
options and warrants is computed using the treasury stock method. As of September 30, 2021, we had

January 2020, we became aware of a complaint filed by Jitendra Jain, Manish Arora, Scariy Kumaramangalam, Harsh Datta and Balvant Arora
(collectively, plaintiffs), against our wholly-owned subsidiary, Trxade, Inc. and our Chief Executive Officer, Suren Ajjarapu
as well as certain unrelated persons, Annapurna Gundlapalli, Gajan Mahendiran and Nexgen Memantine (collectively, defendants), in the
Circuit Court of Madison County, Alabama (Case:47-CV-2019-902216.00). The complaint alleged causes of actions against the defendants
including fraud in the inducement, relating to certain investments alleged to have been made by plaintiffs in Nexgen Memantine, breach
of fiduciary duty, conversion and voidable transactions. The complaint related to certain investments alleged made by the plaintiffs
in Nexgen Memantine and certain alleged fraudulent transfers of assets and funds alleged to have been taken by the defendants which are

for the Middle District of Florida, Tampa Division (Case 8:20-cv-02263), against the same defendants but adding Westminster Pharmaceuticals,
LLC, our former wholly-owned subsidiary (“Westminster”), and raising claims for alleged fraud under Section 10(b) and Rule

NOTE 8 – LEASES
The Company elected the practical expedient under Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2018-11 “Leases: Targeted Improvements” which allows the Company to apply the transition provision for Topic 842 at the Company’s adoption date instead of at the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. Therefore, the Company recognized and measured leases existing at January 1, 2019, but without retrospective application. In addition, the Company elected the optional practical expedient permitted under the transition guidance which allows the Company to carry forward the historical accounting treatment for existing leases upon adoption. No impact was recorded to the beginning retained earnings for Topic 842. The Company has two operating leases for corporate offices. The following table outlines the details:
| Lease 1 | Lease 2 | |||||||
| Initial Lease Term | ||||||||
| Renewal Term | ||||||||
| Initial Recognition of right-of-use assets at January 1, 2019 | $ | $ | ||||||
| Incremental Borrowing Rate | % | % | ||||||
The
Company decided not to renew the corporate office lease (Lease 1) in January 2021; however, the parties subsequently negotiated a one-year
lease at the same location. The Company determined that the decision to not renew Lease 1 changed the corresponding lease term which
required remeasurement of the lease liability resulting in the reduction of the right-of-use asset and the associated lease liability
by $

Company Overview
We are a health services IT company focused on digitalizing the retail pharmacy experience by optimizing drug procurement, the prescription journey and patient engagement in the U.S and have designed and developed, and now own and operate, a business-to-business web-based marketplace. Our core service brings the nation’s independent pharmacies and accredited national suppliers of pharmaceuticals together to provide efficient and transparent buying and selling opportunities.
We began operations as Trxade Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Trxade Nevada”) in August of 2010 and spent over two years creating and enhancing our web-based services. The Company changed its name on June 1, 2021, from “Trxade Group, Inc” to “TRxADE HEALTH, INC.” Our services provide pricing transparency, purchasing capabilities and other value-added services on a single platform focused on serving the nation’s approximately 21,650 independent pharmacies with annual purchasing power of $73.7 billion (according to the National Community of Pharmacists Association’s 2020 Digest). Our national wholesale supply partners are able to fulfill orders on our platform in real-time and provide pharmacies with cost-saving payment terms and next-day delivery capabilities in unrestrictive states under the Model State Pharmacy Act and Model Rules of the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy (Model Act). We have expanded significantly since 2015 and now have around 12,950+ registered members on our sales platform.
Company Organization
TRxADE HEALTH, INC. owns 100 percent of Trxade, Inc., and Integra Pharma Solutions, LLC (formerly Pinnacle Tek, Inc.), Alliance Pharma Solutions, LLC, Community Specialty Pharmacy, LLC, Bonum Health, LLC and MedCheks, LLC. The reverse triangular merger of Trxade, Inc. and Trxade Group, Inc. occurred in July 2013. Integra was acquired in July 2013. We acquired 100 percent of Community Specialty Pharmacy, LLC, in October 2018. Alliance Pharma Solutions, LLC was formed in January 2018 and our joint venture with SyncHealth MSO, LLC, which was terminated in February 2020, was formed in January 2019.

Trxade, Inc. is a web-based market platform that enables commerce among healthcare buyers and sellers of pharmaceuticals, accessories and services.
Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19)
In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, which causes the infectious disease known as COVID-19, was reported in Wuhan, China. The World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern” on January 30, 2020, and a global pandemic on March 11, 2020. In March and April 2020, many U.S. states and local jurisdictions began issuing ‘stay-at-home’ orders. For example, the state of Florida, where the Company’s principal business operations are, issued a ‘stay-at-home’ order effective on April 1, 2020, which remained in place, subject to certain exceptions, through June 2020, when the order was gradually lifted until September 2020, when the order was completely lifted. The U.S. in general and Florida specifically, has recently seen decreases in total new COVID-19 infections as vaccines are now widely available and the number of individuals who have received vaccines has increased; however, it is unknown whether such decreases will continue, new strains of the virus will cause current vaccines to be less effective or whether numbers will increase, and/or whether the state of Florida, or other jurisdictions in which we operate, will issue new or expanded ‘stay-at-home’ orders, or how those orders, or others, may affect our operations.
To date, we have been deemed an essential healthcare technology provider under applicable governmental orders based on the critical nature of the products we offer and the community we serve. As such, our business operations were not materially impacted by the prior restrictions put in place by the State of Florida to slow the spread of COVID-19, which have since expired. Additionally, as shown in our results of operations below, we have to date, not experienced any significant material negative impact to our operations, revenues or gross profit due to COVID-19. We have however been adversely affected by reductions to, and interruptions in, the delivery of supply chain pharmaceuticals that have had a negative impact on our wholesalers, certain technology outsourcing in India and the Philippines and finding qualified staff due to the pandemic, which may become more frequent or material in the future. We are carefully managing our inventory supply network while we work to overcome these hopefully temporary challenges. As a result of the above the full extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our business and operations currently cannot be estimated and will depend on a number of factors including the continued scope and duration of the global pandemic.
Since the start of the pandemic, we have taken steps to prioritize the health and safety of our employees. The Company’s employees started working remotely around March 17, 2020, and our corporate office was closed through September 30, 2021. The office is expected to open for our management team beginning in January 2022, while our remaining employees will continue to work remotely for the time being.
Currently we believe that we have sufficient cash on hand and will generate sufficient cash through operations and potential future equity sales, to support our operations for the foreseeable future; however, we will continue to evaluate our business operations based on new information as it becomes available and will make changes that we consider necessary in light of any new developments regarding the ongoing pandemic. We may also raise additional funding in the future through sales of debt or equity through an at-the-market offering.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash
Cash was $3,571,889 at September 30, 2021. We expect that our future available capital resources will consist primarily of cash generated from operations, remaining cash balances, borrowings, and additional funds raised through sales of debt and/or equity securities.
Liquidity
Cash, current assets, current liabilities, short term debt and working capital at the end of each period were as follows:
| As of | ||||||||||||||||
| September 30, 2021 | December 31, 2020 | Change | Percent Change | |||||||||||||
| Cash | $ | 3,571,889 | $ | 5,919,578 | $ | (2,347,689 | ) | (40 | %) | |||||||

| Short Term Debt | - | 225,000 | (225,000 | ) | (100 | %) | ||||||||||
| Working Capital | 4,534,413 | 8,379,060 | (3,844,647 | ) | (46 | %) | ||||||||||
Our principal sources of liquidity have been cash provided by operations, sales of equity, and borrowings under various debt arrangements. Our principal uses of cash have been for operating expenses and acquisitions. We anticipate these uses will continue to be our principal sources of, and uses of, cash in the future.
The decrease in cash as of September 30, 2021, compared to December 31, 2020, was primarily due to increased spending for the IT development and marketing of Bonum TeleHealth, MedCheks Health Passport, DelivMeds and TRxADE Prime.
Liquidity Outlook cash explanation
Cash Requirements
Our primary objectives for the remainder of 2021 are to continue the development of the Trxade Platform and Bonum Health telehealth services, to increase our client base and operational revenue. As a result of our cash generated through operations and the cash raised in the February 2020 underwritten offering, we believe we have sufficient cash to support our operations for the foreseeable future. There can be no assurance that our operations will generate significant positive cash flow, or that additional funds will be available to us, through borrowings or otherwise, on favorable terms if required in the future, or at all. We may also raise additional funding in the future through the sale of equity. An at-the-market offering was approved by the Board of Directors and filed on August 6, 2021.
We estimate our operating expenses and working capital requirements for the next 12 months to be approximately as follows:
| Projected Expenses for October 2021 to September 2022 | Amount | |||
| General and administrative (1) | $ | 9,000,000 | ||
| Total | $ | 9,000,000 | ||
| (1) | Includes estimated wages and payroll, legal and accounting, marketing, rent and web development. |
| 21 |
We currently anticipate paying the estimated expenses described above through cash on hand and revenues generated from our operations.
We may require additional funding in the future to expand or complete acquisitions. The sources of this capital are expected to be equity investments (including pursuant to the ongoing “at-the-market” offering described below) and notes payable. Our plan for the next twelve months is to continue using the same marketing and management strategies and continue providing a quality product with excellent customer service while also seeking to expand our operations organically or through acquisitions, as funding and opportunities arise. As our business continues to grow, customer feedback will be integral in making small adjustments to improve our products and overall customer experience. If in the future we require additional funding, we plan to raise such funds through the sale of debt or equity (including pursuant to the ongoing “at-the-market” offering described below), which may not be available on favorable terms, if at all, and may, if sold, cause significant dilution to existing stockholders. If we are unable to access additional capital moving forward, it may hurt our ability to grow and to generate future revenues.
On August 6, 2021, we entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement (the “Equity Distribution Agreement”) with EF Hutton, division of Benchmark Investments, LLC (“EF Hutton”, or the “Agent”). In accordance with the terms of the Equity Distribution Agreement, the Company may offer and sell from time to time through the Agent the Company’s common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $9,000,000 (the “Placement Shares”). Sales of the Placement Shares under the Equity Distribution Agreement will be made in transactions that are deemed to be “at-the-market offerings” as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The Company will pay the sales agent a commission of 2.0% of the gross sales price of any Placement Shares sold under the Equity Distribution Agreement. The Company has no obligation to sell any of the Placement Shares, and may, at any time, suspend the sale of the Placement Shares under the Equity Distribution Agreement upon proper notice to the other party for any reason and the Agent may also suspend the sale of Placement Shares at any time. The Equity Distribution Agreement will terminate upon the issuance and sale of all of the Placement Shares through or to the Agent, unless earlier terminated in accordance with its terms.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds, if any, from the sale of the Placement Shares pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreement for general corporate purposes, which may include working capital or capital expenditures and other investments.
To date the Company has not sold any of the Placement Shares.
We believe that we have adequate cash to implement our plan to operate a business-to-business web-based marketplace focused on the United States pharmaceutical industry. Our core service is designed to bring the nation’s independent pharmacies and accredited national suppliers of pharmaceuticals together to provide efficient and transparent buying and selling opportunities.
Since the first quarter of 2020 and through the date of this filing, there has been a global viral outbreak that world governments have responded to with travel and other restrictions, including ‘stay-at-home’ orders, among other steps. The continued extent and duration of business disruptions and related financial impacts from the COVID-19 coronavirus cannot be reasonably estimated at this time; however, our exposure includes potential continued reductions to, and interruptions in, the delivery of supply chain pharmaceuticals that have had a negative impact on our wholesalers and certain technology outsourcing in India and the Philippines in the past and finding qualified staff due to the pandemic In addition, employee sicknesses and remote working environments related to the coronavirus and the federal, state and local responses to such virus, could materially impact our future consolidated results; however, we do not currently forecast any material adverse effects on our 2021 operating results due to COVID-19; although the ultimate impact and duration of the pandemic remains unknown. See also “Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19)”, above.

Cash used in operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was $2,139,511, compared to cash used in operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, of $1,499,251. The decrease in cash as of September 30, 2021, compared to September 30, 2020, was due to cash used in operations for the IT development and marketing of Bonum TeleHealth and MedCheks Health Passport and a decrease in revenue.
There was no cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, was $23,505, which was associated with the purchase of fixed assets.
Cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was $208,178, which was mainly due to the repayment of related party note, compared to cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, which was $5,298,825. Cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, included the sale of common stock in the February 2020 underwritten offering which generated $5,994,424 of proceeds and approximately $5.26 million in cash to the Company after expenses and the exercise of warrants and options which generated cash of $36,756.

Our revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2021, were from the Trxade platform, Community Specialty Pharmacy and Integra Pharma Solutions. Revenues decreased by $3,787,223, compared to the prior period. The decrease was a result of non-recurring sales of personal protective equipment (PPE) in 2020 related to the COVID-19 pandemic. In Trxade, Inc., revenue decreased by 6.5% to $1,265,909 for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $1,354,082, in the prior year’s period. The decrease was mainly as a result of supply chain issues for generic drugs selling on the platform, which carry higher fee revenue than brands. The pandemic has created supply issues for wholesalers and the generic product supply.
Cost of goods sold, and gross profit were $1,269,005 and $1,281,041 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and for the three-month period ended September 30, 2020, were $4,402,967 and $1,929,302, respectively.
Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 50% for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to 31% for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The reason for the increase in gross profit as a percentage of sales was a result of fewer lower margin Personal Protective Equipment (“PPE”) sales in 2021. Gross profit decreased during the current period due to the decrease in sales discussed above, coupled with the decrease in cost of sales, also as discussed above.
General and administrative expenses (less stock-based compensation expense) increased for the three months ended September 30, 2021, to $2,458,817 compared to $1,259,463 for the comparable period in 2020. The increase was mainly due to IT development and marketing expenses relating to Bonum Health and Alliance Pharma Solutions.
Total stock-based compensation expense decreased by 77.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to the prior year’s period due to no management stock bonuses being granted during the period, as described in greater detail above under “PART I. – ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS” – “NOTE 3 – SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY”.

We had $1,285 of Loss on Inventory Investment for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, in connection with a foreign exchange loss as a result of Inventory deposits made in USD converting to CAD.
We had interest expense of $5,622 for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to interest expense of $7,430 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, which decreased due to decreases in the amount of outstanding debt we had as of the current period.
Net Income decreased $1,440,139, to a net loss of $1,301,748 for the three months ended September 30, 2021, compared to net income of $138,391 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, mainly due to the IT development and marketing of the Trxade Platform, Bonum Health and MedCheks start-up development, loss on inventory investments, legal expenses, inventory write downs and bad debt expense, as described in greater detail above under “PART I. – ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS” – “NOTE 6 – OTHER RECEIVABLE”, as well as the decrease in revenues, offset by the decrease in cost of sales, each described in greater detail above.

Our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, were from the Trxade platform, Community Specialty Pharmacy and Integra Pharma Solutions. Revenues decreased by $7,626,691 compared to the prior period. Integra Pharma Solutions revenue decreased by 73.7% to $2,511,270 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $9,548,512 in the prior year’s period. The decrease was a result of non-recurring sales of personal protective equipment (PPE) in 2020 related to the COVID-19 pandemic. In Trxade, Inc., revenue decreased by 14.4% to $3,653,269 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $4,268,619, in the prior year’s period. The decrease was mainly as a result of supply chain issues for generic drugs selling on the platform, which carry higher fee revenue than brands. The pandemic has created supply issues for wholesalers and the generic product supply.
Cost of sales and gross profit were $3,995,792 and $3,505,743 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and $9,554,016 and $5,574,210 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. As sales for PPE decreased in 2021, the cost of sales also decreased.
Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 47% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to 37% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The reason for the increase in gross profit as a percentage of sales was a result of a greater amount of sales from the Trxade platform, which carries a higher gross margin.
General and administrative expenses (less stock-based compensation expense) increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, to $6,336,428, compared to $4,075,268 for the comparable period in 2020. The increase was mainly due to IT development and marketing expenses related to Bonum Health and MedCheks, and legal expenses.
| 24 |
Total stock-based compensation expense decreased to $452,858 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $1,700,171 for the prior year’s period, due to no management stock bonuses being granted in the current period. Stock-based compensation is described in greater detail above under “PART I. – ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS” – “NOTE 3 – SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY”.
We had $1,226,426 of Loss on Inventory Investment for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, in connection with Inventory deposits and our write-down of our Bonum Health Hubs as described in greater detail in “NOTE 6 – OTHER RECEIVABLES”.
We had interest expense of $21,574 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to interest expense of $22,664 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
Net loss increased by $4,307,650, to a net loss of $4,531,543 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to net loss of $223,893 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, mainly due to the IT development and marketing of the Trxade Platform, Bonum Health and MedCheks start-up development, loss on inventory investments, legal expenses, inventory write downs and bad debt expense, as described in greater detail above under “PART I. – ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS”– “NOTE 6 – OTHER RECEIVABLES”, as well as the decrease in revenues, offset by the decrease in cost of sales, each described in greater detail above.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We had no outstanding off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2021.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of net sales and expenses for each period. The following represents a summary of our critical accounting policies, defined as those policies that we believe are the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain.
Revenue Recognition
In general, the Company accounts for revenue recognition in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.”
Trxade, Inc. provides an online web-based buying and selling platform for licensed pharmaceutical wholesalers (“Suppliers”) to sell products and services to licensed pharmacies (“Customers”). Trxade, Inc. charges Suppliers a transaction fee, a percentage of the purchase price of the prescription drugs and other products sold through its website service. Fulfillment of confirmed orders, including delivery and shipment of prescription drugs and other products, is the responsibility of the Supplier, not Trxade, Inc. Trxade, Inc. holds no inventory and assumes no responsibility for the shipment or delivery of any products or services from our website. Trxade, Inc. considers itself an agent for this revenue stream and as such, reports revenue as net. Step One: Identify the contract with the Customers – Trxade, Inc.’s Terms and Use “Agreement,” which outlines the terms and conditions between Trxade, Inc. and the Supplier, is acknowledged and agreed to by the Supplier. Collection is probable based on a credit evaluation of the Supplier. Step Two: Identify the performance obligations in the Agreement – Trxade, Inc. provides the Supplier access to the online website, ability to upload catalogs of products and Dashboard access to review status of inventory as well as posted and processed orders. The Agreement requires the Supplier to post a catalog of pharmaceuticals on the platform, deliver the pharmaceuticals and, upon shipment, remit the stated platform fee. Step Three: Determine the transaction price – the Agreement outlines the fee, which is based on the type of product: generic, brand or non-drug. There are no discounts for volume transactions or early payment of invoices. Step Four: Allocate the transaction price – the Agreement details the fee. There is no difference between contract price and “stand-alone selling price”. Step Five: Recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation – revenue is recognized upon Supplier’s fulfillment of the applicable order.
| 25 |
Integra Pharma Solutions, LLC (“Integra LLC”) is a licensed wholesaler of brand, generic and non-drug products to Customers. Integra LLC takes orders for products, creates invoices for each order and recognizes revenue at the time the Customer receives the product. Customer returns are not material. Step One: Identify the contract with the Customer – Integra LLC requires that an application and a credit card for payment be completed by the Customer prior to the first order. Each transaction is evidenced by an order form sent by the Customer and an invoice for the product is sent by Integra LLC. The collection is probable based on the application and credit card information provided prior to the first order. Step Two: Identify the performance obligations in the contract – Each order is distinct and evidenced by the shipping order and invoice. Step Three: Determine the transaction price – The consideration is variable if product is returned. The variability is determined based on the return policy of the product manufacturer. There are no sales or volume discounts. The transaction price is determined at the time of the order evidenced by the invoice. Step Four: Allocate the transaction price – There is no difference between contract price and “stand-alone selling price”. Step Five: Recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation – The Revenue is recognized when the Customer receives the product.
Community Specialty Pharmacy, LLC (“CSP”) is a licensed retail pharmacy. CSP fills prescriptions for drugs written by a doctor and recognizes revenue at the time the patient confirms delivery of the prescription. Customer returns are not material. Step One: Identify the contract with the Customer – The prescription is written by a doctor for a patient and presented by the patient to the Customer and is in turn delivered to CSP. The prescription identifies the performance obligations in the contract. CSP fills the prescription and delivers to the Customer the drugs, fulfilling the contract. The collection is probable because there is confirmation that the patient has insurance for reimbursement to CSP prior to filling of the prescription. Step Two: Identify the performance obligations in the contract – Each prescription is distinct to the Customer. Step Three: Determine the transaction price – The consideration is not variable. The transaction price is determined to be the price of prescription at the time of delivery which considers the expected reimbursements from third party payors (e.g., pharmacy benefit managers, insurance companies and government agencies). Step Four: Allocate the transaction price – The price of the prescription invoiced represents the expected amount of reimbursement from third party payors. There is no difference between contract price and “stand-alone selling price”. Step Five: Recognize revenue when or as the entity satisfies a performance obligation – Revenue is recognized after the delivery of the prescription.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation”. ASC 718 requires companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments, including stock options, based on the grant date fair value of the award and to recognize it as compensation expense over the period the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. Stock option forfeitures are recognized at the date of employee termination. Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASU 2018-07 for the accounting of share-based payments granted to non-employees for goods and services.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K (§ 229.305(e)), the Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item as it is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1).
| 26 |
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer (our principal executive officer and principal accounting/financial officer), Mr. Ajjarapu and Mr. Doss, respectively, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of September 30, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
As a result of the formative stage of our development, the Company has not fully implemented the necessary internal controls. The matters involving internal controls and procedures that the Company’s management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) were: (1) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and SEC disclosure requirements; and (2) ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes.
Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth above did not have an effect on the Company’s financial results reported herein. We are committed to improving our financial organization. As part of this commitment, we have recently increased our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise as we develop the internal and financial resources of the Company. In addition, the Company will prepare and implement sufficient written policies and checklists which will set forth procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.
Management believes that preparing and implementing sufficient written policies and checklists will remedy the following material weaknesses (i) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (ii) ineffective controls over period end financial close and reporting processes.
We have improved our financial organization as we have increased our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise. We will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2021, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In the ordinary course of business, we may become a party to lawsuits involving various matters. The impact and outcome of litigation, if any, is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We believe the ultimate resolution of any such current proceeding will not have a material adverse effect on our continued financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Such current litigation or other legal proceedings are described in, and incorporated by reference in, this “ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS” of this Form 10-Q from, “PART I – ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in “NOTE 6 – OTHER RECEIVABLES” and “NOTE 7 – CONTINGENCIES”. The Company believes that the resolution of currently pending matters will not individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. However, assessment of the current litigation or other legal claims could change in light of the discovery of facts not presently known to the Company or by judges, juries or other finders of fact, which are not in accord with management’s evaluation of the possible liability or outcome of such litigation or claims.
Additionally, the outcome of litigation is inherently uncertain. If one or more legal matters were resolved against the Company in a reporting period for amounts in excess of management’s expectations, the Company’s financial condition and operating results for that reporting period could be materially adversely affected.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the Commission on March 29, 2021 (the “Form 10-K”), under the heading “Risk Factors”, which risk factors are incorporated by reference herein, except as set forth below, and investors should review the risks provided in the Form 10-K and below, prior to making an investment in the Company. The business, financial condition and operating results of the Company can be affected by a number of factors, whether currently known or unknown, including but not limited to those described in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, under “Risk Factors”, and below, any one or more of which could, directly or indirectly, cause the Company’s actual financial condition and operating results to vary materially from past, or from anticipated future, financial condition and operating results. Any of these factors, in whole or in part, could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and stock price.
The risk factor in the Form 10-K entitled, “We have been, and may in the future be, adversely affected by the global COVID-19 pandemic, the duration and economic, governmental and social impact of which is difficult to predict, which may significantly harm our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.”, is replaced in its entirety by the below:
| 28 |
We have been, and may in the future be, adversely affected by the global COVID-19 pandemic, the duration and economic, governmental and social impact of which is difficult to predict, which may significantly harm our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.
During 2020 and continuing into 2021, there has been a widespread worldwide impact from the COVID-19 pandemic, and we have been, and may in the future be, adversely affected as a result. Numerous government regulations and public advisories, as well as shifting social behaviors, have temporarily limited or closed non-essential transportation, government functions, business activities, and person-to-person interactions, and the duration of such trends is difficult to predict. The outbreak of the COVID-19 coronavirus, the global response to such coronavirus, including travel restrictions and quarantines that governments are instituting, has adversely affected our operations, may continue to have an adverse effect on our operations, and/or may have a significant negative impact on our results of operations, the production of pharmaceuticals and our ability to timely obtain pharmaceuticals for resale. Currently, we are experiencing reductions to, and interruptions in, the delivery of supply chain pharmaceuticals that are having a negative impact on our wholesalers and certain technology outsourcing in India and the Philippines and finding qualified staff due to the pandemic. Notwithstanding the above disruptions, our results of operations have not, to date, been materially adversely affected by the pandemic. However, if we continue to experience production difficulties, quality control problems or further shortages in supply of pharmaceuticals in the future, this could harm our business and results of operations, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our operations and the value of our securities. In addition, employee sicknesses and remote working environments, and the potential negative effect thereof on productivity and internal controls, related to the coronavirus and the federal, state and local responses to such virus, could materially impact our consolidated results for the year for 2021 and beyond. The COVID-19 outbreak could also restrict our access to capital such as credit facilities and lead to material nonrecurring charges, write-downs, impairments and expenses. The Company is actively and continually monitoring the pandemic’s effect on our businesses and endeavoring to adapt quickly in real time to meet the rapidly changing demands of our Customers and Suppliers.
To mitigate the spread of COVID-19, we implemented travel restrictions and remote working arrangements for most of our employees in order to minimize physical contact, and we implemented additional sanitation and personal protection measures. The Company’s employees started working remotely around March 17, 2020, and although productivity did not drop, if it does, it could impact revenues and profitability. The Company’s corporate office was closed through September 30, 2021. The office is expected to open for our management team beginning in January 2022, while our remaining employees will continue to work remotely for the time being. These measures might not fully mitigate COVID-19 risks to our workforce, and we could experience unusual levels of absenteeism that might impair operations and delay delivery of products. The COVID-19 pandemic affects product manufacturing, supply and transport availability and cost. The COVID-19 pandemic also influences shortages of some products, with product allocation resulting in delivery delays for customers. Additionally, as a result of the coronavirus outbreak, various states have adopted price gouging laws. Our failure to comply with such laws and regulations could subject us to claims, penalties, fines or lawsuits.
| 29 |
We have been impacted and may be further impacted by COVID-19 as follows:
| ● | As a result of COVID-19, various states have adopted price gouging laws. Our failure to comply with such laws and regulations could subject us to claims, penalties, fines or lawsuits; | |
| ● | Inventory price fluctuations as a result of supply and demand issues caused by COVID-19 have caused values of inventory to decrease, which has had a direct impact on gross profit and has resulted in a direct write-off of inventory value; | |
| ● | Payment Terms with customers may be altered or extended, which would have an impact on current ratios and cash flow; and | |
| ● | There have previously been material impairments with respect to goodwill and may be future material impairments and/or effects on right-of-use assets as the evaluation of the long-term impact to delivery of service or physical space assessments changes. |
COVID-19 may cause further disruptions to our business, including, but not limited to:
| ● | causing one or more of our customers to file for bankruptcy protection or shut down, including as a result of broader economic disruption; | |
| ● | reducing health system or health plan subscription agreement fees generated, as well as visit fees, by customers or providers, as a result of funding constraints related to loss of revenue or employment; | |
| ● | negatively impacting collections of accounts receivable; | |
| ● | negatively impacting our ability to facilitate the provision of our telehealth services due to unpredictable demand; | |
| ● | negatively impacting our ability to forecast our business’s financial outlook; | |
| ● | creating regulatory uncertainty on our telehealth services, if certain restrictions on reimbursement or the practice of medicine across state lines are reintroduced at some point in the future; and | |
| ● | harming our business, results of operations and financial condition. |
The ongoing impacts of the pandemic may cause a general economic slowdown or recession in one or more markets, disruptions and volatility in global capital markets and other broad and adverse effects on the economy, business conditions, commercial activity and the healthcare industry. The pandemic might impact our business operations, financial position and results of operation in unpredictable ways that depend on highly uncertain future developments, such as determining the effectiveness of current or future government actions to address the public health or economic impacts of the pandemic. Any of these risks might have a materially adverse impact on our business operations and our financial position or results of operations.
The risk factor in the Form 10-K entitled, “We have in the past, and may in the future, not be able to sell our inventory, at or above the price we acquired such inventory for, and have in the past, and may in the future, be forced to write-down inventory in the future.”, is replaced in its entirety by the below:
| 30 |
We have in the past, and may in the future, not be able to sell our inventory, at or above the price we acquired such inventory for, and have in the past, and may in the future, be forced to write-down inventory in the future. We may also be subject to write-downs of certain of our other assets which may have a material adverse effect on our balance sheet.
Due to the supply and demand nature of our pharmaceutical business and the personal protective equipment (PPE) business, especially in connection with the rapidly changing regulations, recommendations and guidance surrounding COVID-19, the inventory of products we have acquired, or may acquire in the future, has been/may be, acquired at a cost higher than the price at which we may be able to resell such products. As a result, in the past we have, and in the future, we may not be able to make a profit on such sales and have in the past and may in the future, have to write-down a significant portion of our inventory. During the years ended December 31, 2020, and 2019, write-down to market value was $1,220,269 and $0, respectively. We had $1,225,141 of Loss on Inventory Investment for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, in connection with Inventory deposits and our write-down of our Bonum Health Hubs as described in greater detail in “NOTE 6 – OTHER RECEIVABLES”. Future write-downs of assets could have a material adverse effect on our balance sheet. Additionally, the company recorded bad debt expense in connection with the sale of PPE items with a single customer for the amount of $630,000 which was more than 90 past due as of September 30, 2021.
The risk factor in the Form 10-K entitled, “The health passport market may not achieve and sustain high levels of demand, consumer acceptance and market adoption.”, is replaced in its entirety by the below:
The health passport market may not achieve and sustain high levels of demand, consumer acceptance and market adoption, and the market for such health passport is rapidly changing.
The health passport market is relatively new and unproven, and it is uncertain whether it will achieve and sustain high levels of demand, consumer acceptance and market adoption. Our success in this new market will depend to a substantial extent on the willingness of our customers to use, and to increase the frequency and extent of their utilization of, our services, as well as on our ability to demonstrate the value of health passports to employers, health plans, government agencies and other purchasers. Negative publicity concerning our services or the health passport market as a whole could limit market acceptance of our services. If ours, or their members or patients, do not perceive the benefits of our services, or if our services are not competitive, then our market may not develop at all, or it may develop more slowly than we expect. Similarly, individual and healthcare industry concerns or negative publicity regarding patient confidentiality and privacy in the context of health passport could limit market acceptance of our services. Our health passport may not be adopted by customers due to among other things, their belief that smartphones lack appropriate security or their failure to understand blockchain. The health passport market is rapidly changing and the need for such services will continue to change. The Company’s health passport application and services may not be adopted, may not ultimately be needed, and may be incompatible with other offerings and/or more widely adopted products. If customers fail to adopt our health passport, or health passports fail to become adopted in the marketplace, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. Separately, governments may come out with their own health passports or similar technology which makes our health passport obsolete. Any of the above could have a material adverse effect on our operations and future prospects.
The below is a new risk factor which supplements the risk factors described in the Form 10-K:
Our quarterly results have in the past, and may in the future, fluctuate significantly due to certain non-recurring sales of products.
Our revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2021, were from the Trxade platform, Community Specialty Pharmacy and Integra Pharma Solutions. Revenues decreased by $3,782,223, compared to the prior period. Integra Pharma Solutions revenue was $795,804 for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease was a result of non-recurring sales of personal protective equipment (PPE) in 2020 related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Our revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, were from the Trxade platform, Community Specialty Pharmacy and Integra Pharma Solutions. Revenues decreased by $7,626,691 compared to the prior period. Integra Pharma Solutions revenue decreased by 73.7% to $2,511,270 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to $9,548,512 in the prior year’s period. The decrease was a result of non-recurring sales of personal protective equipment (PPE) in 2020 related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate in the future based on certain non-recurring sales of PPE and associated costs of revenues therewith, which may be compounded in our year over year financial results. As such, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our revenues, operating results and cash flows may not be meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
Sales of Equity Securities
There have been no sales of unregistered securities during the quarter ended September 30, 2021, and from the period from October 1, 2021, to the filing date of this report, which have not previously been disclosed in a prior Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or a Current Report on Form 8-K, if any.
